  1. Thank you for taking the time to do suchness. I appreciate you.
  2. Gonna call his homers, 'Long dongs?'
  3. Its important to me too. Trivial is always important.
  4. Does that leg kick seem significantly muted?
  5. I hear the music in every restaurant and mall. I, unfortunately, cannot push sound to the background. It's not ideal.
  6. Coen feels like he's cosplaying an announcer. Don't like the cut of his gib. He feels like the guy that is too comfortable with everyone, that it makes everyone uncomfortable. He seems like the guy that tells his best friends' secrets to the cool kids just for some short lived attention.

  8. Ha! Sure, look how amazing those two, bargain bin signings have been for a single month! How could i have ever overlooked it. I'm simply not myopic enough, But. I'm not gonna start sucking dicks over 29 games of production vs the track record of Jed and Co, the group that hasn't produced a runner-up in the division during his tenure. Why wouldn't his track record count when I was, you know. addressing his track record in signings? (34 months? My GOD! Sooo long ago... way back in... 2022? Sooo not relevant.)
  9. With the amount of wasted money in horsefeathers FA (Villar, Mancini etc) Jed has loaded the roster with, I'd rather crunch a little and have a star, than spread jt around to mediocre players at the end of their careers (Simmons, Hosmer, that ****** catcher from Cincinnati I can't remeber) Yes. Pay the star. You can always salary dump him in a few years, then DFA the PTBNL, or Poteet him, or whatever.
  10. I believe his best position is as the utility infielder. Let someone with a bat play 2b. Defensive sub, pinch runner. Or bat him 8/9. Sick of seeing our anemic middle infielders batting 5/6 while PCA and the Catchers, all wildly more productive, bat lower.
  11. And the back of rotation pitcher, I forget his name. probably Scott
  12. horsefeathers hell does Jed have a type
  13. Game winning Homerun and a game ending throw cutting down the tying runner at home? Not a bad Saturday afternoon.
  14. Is there any evidence that Brujan is a better hitter than Rea? Can the designated hitter be for a position player and the pitcher bats?
  15. I can't imagine many extensions coming any time soon. When looking at the direction Ricketts is tanking the franchise, why would anyone want to stay here long term? Plenty of owners that are trying to win, not just profit. Seriously, the Cubs haven't even finished as high as 2nd place (!) since Jed took over. Drowning in a sea of mediocrity, and salary dumping as a large market (Schwarbs, Darvish, Belli) is just sad.
  16. That is what makes them bad. (The highest in the division they have finished in Jed's tenure is 3rd, which is embarrassing. )
  17. Sb is in Grand Rapids this week! Perfect timing!
  18. They had Jung mic'd up before he was injured last spring training and he was a gd natural at it. Remember being impressed. https://www.si.com/mlb/2024/03/29/josh-jung-espn-in-game-interview
  19. Cubs haven't ever produced that.
  20. 8/300
