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.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Oct 15, 2016 -> 10:37 PM) Stop the act, you've been exposed by chw42. It's absolutely pathetic you keep coming back here. Go celebrate with your brethren on Northsidebaseball.com. I've been exposed as what? Someone who likes the Cubs? In a Cubs thread?

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 15, 2016 -> 10:36 PM) HAHAHAHA Except you're actually crying because you lack the fortitude to take the light hearted rubbing your Cub fan friends are going to give you. Because your fandom is so fickle, the success of a different team in a different league upsets you.

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 15, 2016 -> 10:33 PM) I will never understand why a Cubs fan would want to post on a Sox board during a postseason game. There has to be 100 Cubs boards that would love to discuss the game with you. I have no love for the Cubs, but I have admiration for the way they run their organization. I hope if they win the Sox will figure themselves out.

QUOTE (Chicago White Sox @ Oct 15, 2016 -> 10:31 PM) Try to contain your excitement.

Hahahahahaha!!!!!!

I can't see any good reason to split up Mike and Mike. I like them together but I get annoyed when one or the other is out

So many penalties.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 14, 2016 -> 08:42 PM) Can the Hawks franchise cornerstone with a history of concussions please not start fights? Thanks. I tend to not believe in hockey fighting because statistics don't really bear out that they are effective, but if one must fight, it probably shouldn't be a valuable player like Toews. Especially because it's Toews; he's not exactly a notable fighter.

PK in the central blows. Nashville looks good.

QUOTE (lasttriptotulsa @ Oct 13, 2016 -> 12:12 PM) Unless Arrieta gives a discount he's going to be paid in the $30M per year range in free agency. That would mean in 2018 they would have roughly $86M tied up in just Heyward, Lester and Arrieta. That is a hell of a lot of money for any team to have committed to just three players. That's so crazy, but completely accurate. Not a good investment for any team, even the rich Cubs.

He's back October 24th. The official press release refers to treatment for and undisclosed health issue. Sounds like the big C to me.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 10:20 AM) Yeah that is the difference between having Hoyer and Cutler behind center. Cutler has the tools to finish drives, Hoyer doesn't. It was so brutal to watch some of those ridiculous games where a journeyman would throw for 280 yards and the Bears would lose.

QUOTE (Lip Man 1 @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 10:00 AM) 2006 team just off the top of my head. I'd also include the 1917 team, the 1964 and 1983 clubs. Again that's off the top of my head without a serious examination. Mark Agreed on 2006. That team majorly underperformed. The first half of that season they looked like the best thing in baseball.

QUOTE (iWin4Ron @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 01:22 PM) So, Cubbies going to annihilate the nats or the dodgers is the true "??????" mark of the thread. This isn't the NBA. Weird stuff happens.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 06:07 PM) So you're telling me this and this isn't you? Nice broken link there. It's not uncommon. it's the alumni group. https://twitter.com/AustinILLINI https://facebook.com/AustinILLINI And thank god there are creeps out there who go and find people they don't like to make Soxtalk a better place. Creepy much?

QUOTE (chw42 @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 06:01 PM) I found him on another forum. He's a Cubs fan. Just need to look at post history. My question is...why even bother posting on here and basically trolling? There's plenty of Cubs boards out there where you can talk without being opposed almost every step of the way. I'm not AustinIllini on any other forums.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 10:03 AM) It seems like he's had "discomfort" since the day he was drafted. It's always something with him. He's had so many problems, at this point I doubt he knows the difference between what is "discomfort" and what is actually really bad.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 12, 2016 -> 09:35 AM) Is Strasburg officially done for the season? The media makes it sound like he's done, but I'm not sure. He had "discomfort" in his bullpen session.

In before someone calls dpd a Cubs fan.
