    I would bet a million imaginary internet dollars that isn't true.

    I'm at the game. The crowd is great. Best I've seen all year easily FS1 is muting the crowd then. It sounds like horsefeathers on tv This comes up a lot every year in the hockey playoffs. The crowd noise you hear on TV is entirely a result of production decisions and mic placement. You can never really tell what a crowd is like watching on TV.

    If this was our year, that would have gone out. Season over.

    You can't tell from TV what a crowd is like. The crowd is a slider in the producer's computer.

    Everything is primed and ready for some major donging.
  6. Hairyducked Idiot
    I'm definitely not done with that though.
  7. Hairyducked Idiot
    I'm done with leadoff hits now.

    And Zobrist had to swing at that because it was gonna be called for some inane reason.

    Kelby whatever is the spazziest looking baseball player I've ever seen. Even I want to knock his books out of his hands and kick them away as he tries to pick them up.

    He went

    It works on multiple levels

    The site that does umpire heat maps apparently folded, but I was looking around earlier and Tichenor appears to be a small zone guy

    Way ahead of you

    Any connection between an athlete's listed height and weight and their actual is a coincidence

    How can fangraphs and 538 be so far off, and which has been the better predictor? Fangraphs is probably wrong, they have some weird glitches. 538 has been treating us like a 120-win team all year and I want to believe but who knows.

    Even breaking schtick for a minute, that is pretty great value. Any five-game playoff series maxes out at about 60/40 for the better team. Getting odds 10 percentage points better than that is a steal.

    Seriously, this is insane. What does this mean? I'm not a betting man You win back $215 if you bet $100 and they win, plus your original $100. Basically puts Cubs at 70% to win

    And having an offense that is a lot better than the Giants 5 times out of 5. I like the Cubs chances. And a pen, and a defense...... And manager
  20. Hairyducked Idiot
    Good thing that's not the case. FIP disagrees
  21. Hairyducked Idiot
    I'm not excited to be facing at least a slightly better pitcher three times out of five.

    Running NLCS to 0-5, losing however many World Series in a row. And that is before we get to the possibility of heartbreaking chokes and crushing sweeps. how the horsefeathers is this fun for you take SVP's advice Javy becoming the next Leon Durham or Alex Gonzalez. 100 Bartman references. Bryzzo going 0-fer and developing a reputation as chokers. Knowing that even if next year's team wins 115, every article about them will ask if they can really hack it in the postseason. Arguments that we don't have a "true ace."

    Even year magic Bumgarner fellating, Samardzija celebrating them eliminating us, Dusty Baker getting to a WS on our backs, Texas Rangers refuting run differential. So many potential nightmares Jeepers, it's almost like there isn't a good way to lose a playoff series. WEIRD. Running NLCS to 0-5, losing however many World Series in a row. And that is before we get to the possibility of heartbreaking chokes and crushing sweeps.

    We got that in 98. Thanks to Steve Trachsel and Gary Gaetti
