QUOTE (35thstreetswarm @ Oct 24, 2016 -> 03:54 PM) It's not really "true." You predict it will prove true over the next several years. The fact remains, though, that true dynasties are pretty rare in modern baseball. Yeah, and I guess it's not really "true" the Warriors are going to make wet, soggy, dirty diapers out of the nba this year. Afterall, it hasn't happened yet. Please. Bryant, Baez, Russell, Contreras, Rizzo, and Schwarber is as good as it gets - ever. They ain't goin' nowhere.

QUOTE (whitesoxjr27 @ Oct 24, 2016 -> 03:40 PM) I rolled my eyes. You don't have to like it. But it's true. It's to the point now that 88-90 wins would be considered an off year for them with their current core.

QUOTE (whitesoxjr27 @ Oct 24, 2016 -> 03:34 PM) I did have a fan at work say the cubs will go on braves type run. That's a smart fan.

QUOTE (b-Rye @ Oct 23, 2016 -> 05:18 PM) Giants and dodgers were really weak teams, cubs should of swept both teams. Indians have been hot throughout playoffs , cubs have them talent wise but it depends on how the cubs hit. Unfortunately cubs are built to win the next 3-5 years with no competition in sight in national league. I'm hoping Indians win in seven, but cubs probably got them in five games as long as they hit the ball or don't have a mental breakdown that leads to a choke . Not only do the cubs have top young talent theyve also bought a the finishing pieces to puzzle , more timely than Yanks/bosox ever have. I think this year and next year will be theyre prime dominant years and they'll slowly decline due to bad contracts , injuries , and lack off high draft picks

QUOTE (JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Oct 22, 2016 -> 10:15 PM) Can the mods please put an end to this Austin Illini/Deadpool guy? He/she isn't breaking any rules to my knowledge. He/she is a dick. But He/she doesn't personally insult anyone or use slurs or s*** like that.

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Oct 22, 2016 -> 10:06 PM) Pretty sexist. Bruh, you are NOT a female. Stop.

QUOTE (Deadpool @ Oct 22, 2016 -> 10:02 PM) Right, because I should be in the kitchen, right? Women don't know how to use computers and they don't understand baseball, right? I ain't sayin' that. But females aren't typically as angry and vicious as you when it comes to sports. Other stuff? Yeah. Sports? No.

Man, deadpool ain't no female. I refuse to believe it.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 22, 2016 -> 09:56 PM) I usually ignore him (didn't he claim to be a woman a few weeks ago?), but I didn't care for the way he responded to your post. Wtf? lmao.

All effin' hell about to break loose.

Cubs in 5.

http://www.espn.com/chicago/mlb/story/_/id...ball-operations I'm completely shook. This is the date a dynasty was born. RIP baseball.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 16, 2016 -> 10:45 AM) That seems like a straight steal. I am missing something? DUDE CAN'T SHOOT. AT ALL. We've already got one of those in Rondo.

QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 16, 2016 -> 10:42 AM) Eh they gotta prove it. That 14 draft has to step up. Lots of longtime stars exited stage right. Aside from curry and Davis doesn't seem like we've really replenished compared to like '10-14 where the amount of top players young and old was best of my lifetime Towns, Porzingis, greek freak, etc. The talent level is higher than it's ever been.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 16, 2016 -> 10:24 AM) For whom? The fans? The smart ones. If you can consistently survive the 162 game blob that is baseball regular season and give yourself a chance come October then you're winning.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 16, 2016 -> 10:12 AM) Embiid and D'angelo Russell are going to blow up this year. What a time to be alive if you're an nba fan (bulls fan not so much).

QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 16, 2016 -> 10:09 AM) Their position players remind me very much of those Indians teams from the 90's. They are just going to be stacked at almost every position. It would be nice if you would remove your head from their ass, however. Also, those Indians teams had like, what, 4 HoF'ers, and how many WS titles did they win? To hell with titles. They're going to be in the playoffs or damn close to the playoffs every year for the next decade. That's all that matters in a sport like baseball...

Man, would y'all stfu about Cubs fans. Who cares what they say on twitter or FB or at the bar or what f***ing ever. This team is god-like. They're going on a Braves-like run and ain't s*** anybody can do about it. I'll never openly root for the Cubs but them winning it all might force that other Chicago team to not be awful at just about every aspect of baseball.

QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 15, 2016 -> 10:31 PM) Marc stein passing along zach Lowe info that bulls in deep talks for a Michael carter Williams for Snell swap. I don't know c-w contract or how much he has fallen but damn getting anything for snell is crazy. MCW? Rondo? Wade? Way to get with the times, bulls! #whoneeds3pointshooting? off-topic has anybody been lookin' at what Joel Embiid has been doing? Monster, beast or whatever doesn't describe this dude. That size/athleticism/skill-set is no joke. He switched on to John Wall (yes, that john wall) the other night and EASILY kept him in front of him. Please let this man stay healthy. This guy is an all-time level talent.

Joe Blanton got ethered. Indians the only thing standing between the Cubs and a title.

JB is a f***in' stud. Cubs got me shook. And next year they get Schrawber back. #facepalm

QUOTE (JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Oct 8, 2016 -> 10:29 PM) Oh there's my other favorite buddy J4L. It's always such a coincidence that you show up to these types of threads after Cubs wins. I lurk all the time. You're reaching all over the place. The Giants never had a chance. The NLCS should be different.

QUOTE (JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Oct 8, 2016 -> 10:16 PM) It's an uphill battle from here but the series isn't over just yet. If the Giants can hold serve at home anything can happen in a game five. Giants definitely needed to find a way to win game one because shark didn't give them much of a chance in game two.

QUOTE (iWin4Ron @ Oct 2, 2016 -> 02:23 PM) Really enjoying the storylines in the NBA this year. Durant going to the unstoppable Warriors, will they succeed? Such an amazingly fun team to watch. The legacy of LeBron James continues. The Chicago Bulls have a new look roster, what can we expect? I expect great things (by great, I mean playoff bound). The NY Knicks have a crazy team. Noah / Rose / Carmello / Porz is an interesting squad to say the least. Is it the Boston Celtics time again? What a roster they have put together. So many young players as well. What will the 76ers do with all the talent in the world and no experience/playing time. They need to make a deal or two? The LA Lakers after Kobe Bryant, will Russell take the next big step? Where's Rudy Gay going? Spurs continue their boring greatness with Gasol / Kawhi / LMA / Parker, etc. I wish the Clippers had the assets to land him without giving up any of their core pieces. Clippers with Gay could definitely run with GS. Otherwise the west is completely a foregone conclusion. Klay Thompson as your third option? My goodness. This dude dropped 37 in a quarter and he's your THIRD option.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Oct 2, 2016 -> 03:25 PM) Money, youth (Rose & Noah) and a head coach taking the league by storm. but we never had this dude.
