    Sending him down has to have been discussed, no?

    Is it a safe assumption he was using some tiky tak?

    8 walks in a game is a "Dunston"

    That crossed my mind when I saw his reaction but just dismissed it.

    I started watching the Cubs in 82 and had to wait until Zambrano so absolutely mind blowing.

    I think it was against the Dodgers earlier in year - later innings - Cubs on 2nd (tying run) and 3rd - 2 outs - Sutcliff says they should walk the batter to get to Contreras who's looked lost for days. JD and Booger are all over him - no way are the Dodgers putting the winning run on 1st. Pitching coach comes out - they walk the batter and Contreras pops up or strikes out or whatever. I love JD, and Booger is growing on me - plus he always looks like he's just rolled out of bed - but I have no problem with a little goofball in the booth on occasion and I love how he rides Booger. (Plus there's always a chance he shows up wasted)

    The Arrieta trade worked out well Rizzo for Cashner Ryno and Bowa for Dejesus. Derek Lee for Hee Seop Choi wasn' too bad.

    There's some tool behind the plate that keeps holding up a jersey - is it anyone's in particular? Is there some point to what he's doing?

    Gotcha'. Was completely unaware that there was a negative connotation with "durag". I live in Canada and have heard people - white, black, asian, indian - use "durag" pretty frequently - guys wear them for weekend softball, football etc. - not most, but it's certainly not uncommon. I shall make note for when the border re-opens. Durag is not a derogatory term. But when you comment that past white players would never have worn one, what is it you are trying to say? Didn't he say it was the same one that Seaver did wear? The guy in the Survivor video got upset over the use of "durag" though. Again I don't live in the US and there doesn't seem to be the same connotation here in Canada so I wasn't understanding the reaction.

    Long story short: Brenly was using “durag” as a derogatory comment since wearing a durag is conceived by unintelligent racist white people as something a poor black person wears. Jamal from Survivor breaks it down better than I could. Watch the video I posted. Gotcha'. Was completely unaware that there was a negative connotation with "durag". I live in Canada and have heard people - white, black, asian, indian - use "durag" pretty frequently - guys wear them for weekend softball, football etc. - not most, but it's certainly not uncommon. I shall make note for when the border re-opens.

    brenly stroman Someone help me with Brenly's comments - I'm not sure I'm understanding the issues.

    Once you realize Javy is a jedi who occasionally uses his jedi mind tricks in game it explains a lot. I'm not the baserunner you are looking for. :shock:
  19. chopsx9
    not to come to their defense or anything, but they did that last year for Descalso. Maybe they could re-sign JD so he could get his.

    To ensure the run didn’t count on the dp. you gotta scream that out when you’re inches from the base though edit - misread - agree 100%

    "That's what he sounded like when Seager popped out to short too" - love Sutcliff picking the Booger all game.
  23. chopsx9
    Booger should be fired for thinking Shoeless Joe played until 1928.
  24. chopsx9
    I don't think it's impossible, but it could be saying that only 3.1% of appearances were non-compliant with the current rule, which allows single hitter appearances that end an inning, which feels more accurate to me. Wouldn't it be even more unlikely if it was non-compliant appearances? That would be more appearances than just single batter appearances, no?

    I was walking away from the screen earlier in the game when someone flew out to right. I rushed back when I remembered it was Polanco out there; just in case.
