  1. i don't think war accounts for their pitchers being exhausted by the third inning because they have to cover first on every play
  2. what games are len and jd not doing on tv? just the espn/fox things, right?
  3. way too much positivity about bryant, thought we could use a thread to remind us that we root for the cubs and nothing good will ever happen
  4. patrick mooney seemed super plugged in last year and knew a lot of things in advance (including being the first to say assertively that he thought baez would be up to the majors early). now most of his tweets are ripping the cubs for not starting bryant on opening day. seems like a dangerous game.
  5. signing mcdonald makes me want to puke. ugh.
  6. having a guy in your lineup who has a high likelihood of obp'ing .260 and getting sent down after three weeks is not braggable.
  7. yes and it is almost certainly their best one I figured the best one was with the ambiguity of the expansion language. I mean the language explicitly says all they need is approval from governmental authorities...how is that at all misleading or ambiguous? well yeah, i was thinking of this as a part of the expansion language argument.

  9. my roster is full but i can't seem to make the draft thing skip my pick. i put it on autopilot but nothing happened. if someone can fix this so you guys can finish the rest of the draft, that would be great.
  10. he is fun to watch but i am very surprised to see he does that michael barrett thing where he fidgets with his glove instead of giving the pitcher a target before the pitch.
  11. chelsea up 2-0 on hull city in a nice comfortable snoozer 26 minutes in, then give up an extremely impressive goal and a complete nonsense goal in 75 seconds.
  12. A carter B mccutchen moss C braun goldschmidt springer D harper trumbo heyward hanley ramirez machado WC pm
  13. http://i.imgur.com/ULwoG51.jpg mark prior turned into a weird old man really fast. the watch and sunglasses agree.
  14. all this draft stuff is overblown. let's just all agree that abuck forfeits the month of april as punishment for ruining the league and proceed as if none of this stuff ever happened.
  15. I cannot tell you how badly I want them to try piggybacking Wood and Jackson. was just coming to post this. agree so hard.
  16. i don't think you're supposed to tag the base with your face, however divinely delicious it may be for [expletive]'s sake...the question is just about whether it's possible to get there faster by eating the contents of first base than it is by running through. the practicality or consistent feasibility doesn't matter.
  17. what about the potential effects of telling the hitter that first base is full of thick onion gravy and the only way to eat it is to dive in face-first
  18. I still wonder if/how the Cubs can actually use those batting tunnels if the other team doesn't have something similar. the cubs should give the other teams batting cages with pitching machines that only throw 140mph fastballs at your head
  19. maybe they want shirts to commemorate the great times that were april-july 2014
  20. Even those under the impression that there's a 1982 action classic entitled "Rambo" know better than that. Ha. I was 10 when The New Hope came out and I don't remember anyone calling it that. No one did. It was just released as Star Wars back then. Except it says "Episode IV: A New Hope" in the opening crawl not when it was originally released.
  21. really, really enjoyed glancing at the stuff at the end there and thinking i saw a hashtag about vegas brothels.
  22. yeah, i definitely recognize that it is unfair to judge him at all based on that pa, but he looked like a little boy who got cocky hitting against his dad and his dad decided to remind him who was boss.
