  1. Sexy comeback by Webb.
  2. I like how downs damn near walked right into the dugout after that.
  3. I hate this offense without Eaton.
  4. Anytime you can take out your best hitter for a guy hitting .027 you do it.
  5. How was that a strike.
  6. Man that tingle you get when you get to watch Gordon Beckham hit.
  7. Oof Beckham had a pitch to hit there
  8. ugh, I knew this was going to happen. Nobody is going to talk me down from the ledge on this. We are going to keep getting "good reports" but a delayed time table and then suddenly we'll see "Sale out for season, getting surgery"
  9. Angel Olsen at Lincoln Hall last night was great. Kinda weird though, it was so quiet with everyone fixating on her insane voice that you could hear lots of lipsmacking from the youngandinlove.
  10. QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ May 5, 2014 -> 04:51 PM) What has turned me off from watching the draft more than anything is the five minutes from the time the team makes a pick to the time it is announced, so that the networks can get in commercials and the talking heads can get through all of their material on the last pick. If they announced all picks within a minute of the actual pick, I'd be more inclined to watch. As it stands, I'll watch the first 2-3 picks, then switch over to something else (probably the Sox game since they are on WGN Thursday) until about 2-3 picks before the Bears pick. Pretty sure that is less than it used to be. You used to have like 20 minutes between first round picks.
  11. Not that interesting stat, but I thought about it ever since seeing Gillaspie finished second in HRs among AL rookies, Abreu is 2 hrs away on May 5th for hitting as many HRs as the top AL HR hitting rookie hit in all of 2013 (Oswaldo Garcia, 14). NL fared a lot better.
  12. QUOTE (buhbuhburrrrlz @ May 5, 2014 -> 04:54 PM) Wednesday and Thursday temps supposed to be in the 80s... Hopefully people turn out Thursday supposed to be crazy storms. Not sure a game will be played.
  13. QUOTE (ptatc @ May 5, 2014 -> 04:35 PM) Go to a Bears packers game, it's even worse. It was so bad I stopped going to those and sold my tickets for them. Bears fans are awful. I went to Bears Rams game in STL last November, and was so embarrassed at how terrible the Bears fans were being to everyone. Fights were being picked left and right.
  14. QUOTE (onedog#1 @ May 5, 2014 -> 02:33 PM) Any Sox fan could kill all their brain cells,, but would never forget the basket shot to sweep the lovable losers. For me, the Carlos Lee, Jose Valentin and AJP homers were way more memorable. Also, the game we were down 8-0 in the 4th and came back to win 12-9. When Paulie came up to the plate either tied or down by a few I just remember there being no doubt in my mind he was gonna rip a hit.
  15. I really am not going to worry until it's consistently 80 degrees. Chicago is ready to explode with all things related to summer including baseball games, but everyone is still very cautious when it's low 50s to high 40s and rainy every day. I don't think we'll draw 2 million but if it's July and it's still empty as an expos game then we might have a problem.
  16. QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 5, 2014 -> 02:06 PM) The trash talk etc was much worse when both teams would good and the series was on the weekend. There were some super violent games in the stands back then. Yeah I bet. I can't relate to how terrible a human being you have to be to try and start a fight at a game over some macho team pride BS.
  17. With the draft being two weeks later, it makes it even more painful to me that it's now 4 days long. I really miss just bingeing on a Saturday and Sunday. I don't even remember what college football is at this point, let alone it's players.
  18. I went to Sox Cubs last year for first time, mostly had only seen on TV. It was a terrible experience. Cubs fans just screaming at you for some reason, sox and cub fan trashtalking that was embarrassingly bad, and mostly just people so drunk they felt they could constantly invade your personal space. That said, I am kind of sad this is such an afterthought. From 00-06 there were so many good games in the series. I think it was probably 08 where it really started to taper off for me.
  19. I'm going to stop starting Eaton in fantasy. He gets injured immediately. I'm like a voodoo doll owner.
