I think in late January or early February. I'm pretty sure it's after the season pass holders pick out their seats (or keep the same ones as last year).

Banter with a friend who's a Nats fan isn't as fun anymore because holy poo poo his fatalism is at extreme measures, and I'm a Cubs fan. That said, I don't mind the Nats (gently caress Daniel Murphy though). I wanted a Cubs/Nats NLCS, but the cards didn't fall that way.

Pancakes posted:My Uncle Don showed me how to root for a baseball team the Right Way when I was 6 by turning on Ozzie Smith. That’ll teach my dad to have gone for a beer run. Plus I’ve had more Cubs fans try to fight me when they’re drunk than any other demographic in my life. When I was in high school, my sisters and I were three of the five Cubs fans in the entire school, and the rest were Cardinals fans. I was a sophomore in 2003. Hoo boy all the poo poo I got from everyone the day after the Bartman catch.

I thought I'd be okay this postseason since the Cubs finally got a WS championship under their belt, but holy poo poo am I nervous again this time around.

Pancakes posted:I've updated the Toxx thread through the NLCS Game 1. Goons have raised over $1,800 for charities this postseason so far, including over $1,200 for Puerto Rico relief. I'll note that for all we like to talk about their giant payrolls, there are very few Toxx pledges related to the Yankees and none related to the Dodgers. Mine will kick in when the Dodgers beat the Cubs

Its really frustrating when your team does well in the regular season only to crash and burn as soon as the weather turns cold. At least the Cubs were able to come back from the dead last year. Alternatively, find wherever the hell Szczur bounced off to and steal his bat.

Thom P. Tiers posted:It's also like 60 degrees at night in Chicago right now. I find this odd because usually it's loving cold this time of year compared to downstate where I am. But I do admit Illinois is in that drunk weather pattern where it's 40 in the morning and close to 80 in the afternoon.

I'm gonna hang onto the theory that the Cubs took the EYBS powers from the Giants when they beat them last year.

Der Meister posted:What happened? Granderson whiffed the ball, but Contreras dropped it. It was called strike 3. Granderson threw a hissy and said he foul tipped it. Dodgers manager came out and complained too. Home plate ump first said it was not up for review (which is true) but then had a conference with the other umps. 3rd base ump overturned it for reasons. Maddon then came out and was like "wtf that's not supposed to be reviewed, look at the loving video on the scoreboard that's showing that he missed it, why the gently caress would you even overturn on a call that can't be overturned anyway" He got ejected. Granderson struck out on the next pitch anyway.

aaaahahhaha who the gently caress bought me an avatar? It's greatSydin posted:Roberts comes out of the dugout to argue balls and strikes, somehow not only doesn't get ejected, but gets an illegal review that determines a clear swinging strike three was a foul tip. Maddon then comes out of the dugout and gets ejected for arguing balls and strikes, even though all he was doing was pointing out that you can't review balls and strikes. umpires

iospace posted:I think the only pitch you can review is if it hits the batter or not And yet that didn't happen when RIzzo got HBP and they called it strike 3 anyway because he swung.

No clue, but if whiffing the ball can be a foul tip, I'm not sure of anything anymore.

Kevlar v2.0 posted:Still an extremely successful season for the Cubs. Three straight NLCS appearances is nothing to sneeze at, especially when one of those ended with a championship. I agree with all 3 of your points. I mean, poo poo, the WBC was also last year and that ate into spring training, which would be okay, but a 4 month media tour on top of that, and then spring training rolling into the regular season will leave anyone gassed. I will say that maybe also some outfield defense could use some work too. Heyward is a great RF player, and Almora + Jay can cover CF, but LF is a gamble. And I think Jay is only on a 1 year contract.

Someone on my Facebook feed stated that she hates the Cubs more than her cancer. Now I don't know about you guys, but maybe, juuuust maybe I think I'd pick the rival baseball team if given the choice.

They push the local news back for awards shows, but somehow that's not acceptable for baseball. EDIT!: Oh, and the Super Bowl too. Gotta have the news start at midnight for that. Miz Kriss fucked around with this message at 18:29 on Oct 24, 2017 |
