QUOTE (JUSTgottaBELIEVE @ Oct 22, 2016 -> 08:37 PM) Not many have but I bet he's seen a White Sox World Series! Seriously, where have the last ten years gone?

This is fairly remarkable, as my father hasn't even seen a Cubs pennant in his life time. The game isn't over, but still...

30 pitches in the in first.

Is anyone counting the 2003 references?

Really nice crowd tonight considering the circumstances.

QUOTE (SCCWS @ Oct 22, 2016 -> 05:50 PM) Which makes it ironic that the NL has won more World Series over that stretch since the disparity is not really close. I don't know if it's ironic or more a product of more difficult schedule in the regular and post season leading up to the World Series. If FiveThirtyEight is correct (which they usually are), the AL team that reaches the World Series has had a much more difficult path and likely has more wear and tear on its players. I'm totally speculating. I have no idea if statistics bear out my hypothesis.

Three really good things in this video. 1) As said multiple times, ARod is a potentially great broadcaster 2) It's a batting lesson from Pete Rose 3) Frank does a good job reiterating Rose's point, because Pete rambles a lot. Dynamite lineup, honestly.

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Oct 21, 2016 -> 02:04 PM) The only way the White Sox will get a new stadium is if it's built in Portland, Montreal, North Carolina, or (God forbid) Indiana. And if that northside team (whose name I'll never say on here) goes on a Yankees-like run, I wouldn't doubt if our White Sox were forced to leave Chicago. Yeah. No. we aren't getting a new stadium. Also, the Sox won't be moving any time soon.

QUOTE (whitesoxjr27 @ Oct 21, 2016 -> 11:55 AM) A 2003 style meltdown could never happen again.... take heed

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Oct 20, 2016 -> 11:00 PM) Dodgers and Giants have looked terrible I can't blame you for blocking out how bad this season was, but no one is that dense.

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Oct 20, 2016 -> 10:44 PM) Watching these NL games, I really wonder if the White Sox would win 90+. Dodgers are choking. Complete mental breakdown Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha Wait...you're serious?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 20, 2016 -> 07:44 PM) Matt Barkley I think. I think he means if Barkley goes down.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 20, 2016 -> 08:32 PM) Wonder who the emergency quarterback is?

I didn't like the deal when they signed it, but Lester = money well spent.

QUOTE (raBBit @ Oct 19, 2016 -> 06:24 PM) My uncle has one. They are ridiculous. I wasn't driving, but the acceleration was intoxicating. I can't even imagine what it would be like to open that thing up on a highway.

Got to ride in a colleague's Challenger SRT Hellcat. 707 HP of insanity.

10 years in the postseason is NOT better than 1 WS. The best you can do is make the playoffs every year and play your best in the postseason. It's a lot of luck, so it's not out of the realm of possibilities the Cubs still don't win the World Series under Theo.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 15, 2016 -> 04:00 PM) Yeah I heard Lebatard inadvertently mention the Mike & Mike changes. I guess they are hoping to pull from some of their depth to help some of their other programming? I will be interested to see what they do with Golic. I'd be interested if they replaced Greenie with Bomani Jones or Russillo. I feel like Kanell is just weighing RR down. If anyone, I would think Adnan Virk if only because he's like a poor man's Mike Greenberg

I still can't believe he's there after he killed that camera kid.

QUOTE (JenksIsMyHero @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 04:01 PM) Maybe Derrick's a better shooter than we thought? BAM! NAILED IT. Winner! And don't worry, Derrick is so dumb he'll say too much at an interview and he will face a murder charge.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 16, 2016 -> 01:11 AM) Do they do that a lot in the NL? That is walk the bases loaded to make the other manager pinch hit for a stud pitcher? I thought that was a silly move and BOOM BAM, grand slam. I watch AL not NL. Is that pretty common what the Dodgers did? NL baseball is just kind of stupid.

The post of the year is "Cleveland won the NBA championship, so the Cubs or Indians will win the World Series." I would expect nothing less.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Oct 15, 2016 -> 10:53 PM) Indians/Cubs was predictable as soon as the Cavs won. History has a way of creating these of just these sorts of match-ups. Hopefully it comes down to Miller vs. Chapman. The best reliever will win out over the hardest thrower. No it doesn't and this series is far from over.
