Up to bat in the 8th, lackeys gonna call his shot and hit a dinger into the basket. Instead of bat flipping he'll draw gently caress into the batter's box then trot around.

Ok so seriously, is that ump from third going to be behind home tomorrow?

I know they can't fire him because of their union, but he should be removed from playoff rotation entirely.

I love it. I have no idea who bought it, but I'm quite pleased.

Now watch as the Cubs somehow pull this out of their rear end and get swept by the Yankees/Astros and I gotta replace it because :toxx:

Really not looking forward to all media in Chicago tomorrow talking about this being the start of a comeback and then acting surprised when they can't score a run in game 5

There is not a single person who actually believes the Cubs are going to win 3 straight to win this series


Besides Me.

CUBS IN 7 MOTHERFUCKERS.

I am on this ride for life, but since they won last year, the all-in investment is gone. Now its just loving fun to watch.

I like being a normal sports fan.

:toxx: If the Cubs win tomorrow, and that win includes Lackey pitching any amount of scoreless baseball, I will get a Lackey avatar and keep it at least until the end of spring training next year.

regular season umpire rotation is home > third > second > first iirc. I'm not sure how the post-season adding LF & RF umpires stretches that out, but he would likely have already been behind the plate in game 3 and won't be behind the plate again this series

All I know is that Tichenor went from home to RF to LF. So if they're added into your rotation there, the third base ump wouldn't get to home until a potential game 7.
