  1. Im very excited for it. No way I will touch it with my money, but very excited about the game itself. How often did Oregon have to see anything like the Whiteout in the Pac 12?
  2. Well they're wearing garters, and breathing out their eyelids like the mayans?
  3. Fernando Tatis going 11 for 15 with 4 HRs and Padres bullpen being elite as we lose 2 out of 3 with scores like 5-4
  4. Im going the other way....If I could bet on Illinois games in Illinois
  5. I know the Cowboys D sucks....but that was a big boy drive. FOOTBALL
  6. I think a team like Illinois needs to at least control the pace of play. Even when they struggled running the ball in the 1st 3 games, they stuck with it and it played dividends in the 2nd half. The poor performance from their defense got the offense out of their strength. Then it snowballed on them. I know the defense had some injuries and lost a key player to a borderline targeting call, but Indiana so quickly getting the ball to a wide open receivers was should scare Illinois fans
  7. They won't be
  8. I used to think their SEC game every week was well done. They just had some really great camera angels today. Play by play was very solid also. Now that Gus Johnson has lost several steps, the CBS game might be the best
  9. Indiana wow! This game isnt even as close as the score
  10. I know Dabo is reluctant on using the portal, but what are Clemsons NIL capabilities? Watching some of the Michigan/Nebraska game. For some reason I thought the camera work, cinematography was great.
  11. I was thinking about doing something I hate. Bet against the Cubs today. You just talked me out of it
  12. I hate losing,I hate losing more than I like winning, and there is a difference-Billy Beane(Brad Pitt) Moneyball. I know I am a grumpy old man, but this quote has always resonated with me. That being sad, the other thing about being a grumpy old man is I have lived thru a lot more non playoff Cubs team than playoff teams. I am excited that the Cubs will probably be playing 3 home playoff games.
  13. So he is what he is....a valuable bench player. Why is everyone expecting an all star?
  14. I hope the Dbacks or Giants sneak in. Not only would that probably leave the Mets out, it would be 2 yrs in a row that a seller at the deadline made it.
  15. It would be great if the circle of trust can get a day off
  16. Im not sure Penix was any better, Atlanta just had a consistent running attack and he was more protected
  17. 1. What Counsell makes is moot. His salary does not count against the luxury tax, which seems to be the Cubs self imposed spending limit 2. Ultimately I think he was hired because the Cubs owner and front office view player development as crucial to overall team success. Overall, as frustrated as I get about Caissie and Ballesteros coming up and sitting the bench, he has worked well with developing others. Both from our system and getting value from other system rejects. 3. We were projected as a mid 80 win team. Best pitcher out for season after 2 starts and will finish with 90+ wins. Also, had a trash bench for 1st 110 games. I'll give him a B
  18. Ha, I missed that one. I used to coach HS and American Legion. I know not even close to MLB. But he seems to be in front of everything. Its probably how just about anyone would try to coach him. Like I said though, alot more difficult at the MLB level than I could even imagine.
  19. I meant since their head to head was 3-3, the next tiebreaker is division record. I think. Which really doesn't make sense since they play in different divisions
  20. The thing that would absolutely give the young QB all the support he can get is a real running attack. I dont think the comparison is Loveland v Warren. Its why wasn't more done to improve the run game?
  21. The most embarrassing roughing the passer ever just happened on Mahomes
  22. Unpopular opinion.....drafting is overrated.....player development is underrated.
  23. Isn't it who has the best record against division? Which is weird for WC
