Have fun. I’ll be watching the Hawks and checking in on my phone/during intermissions at the Cubs. If they score more than 1 run maybe I’ll watch. Zero confidence this team can do that - they seem checked out. Bryant’s excuses today don’t give me a ton of confidence but they also don’t mean anything once the game

I’ve watched hundreds of Cubs games. I didn’t last night because I figured (correctly!) that they were done down 2-1. Like I said, I turn into a raging idiot when I watch them look like death, so I figured I’d just not watch and subject my friends/strangers on twitter to my dumbass texts/tweets.

Great read, thanks Caleb. Ole Miss pulled an Icarus - they got too good too fast and it caused others to start digging.

Yep. I find if I watch them no-show like they have then all I do is get angry and tweet/text stupid shit to people. So better off for all that I don’t watch.

He was pretty bad last year but the team was good enough to overcome it. This year they’re not. Maddon is the baseball equivalent of the football coach who is great Monday-Saturday and terrible on Sunday.

Lifelong Cubs fan, didn’t watch a second last night. Was sucked into Cavs-Celtics, saw on my phone the Cubs were down 2-1 and said “nope, they’re not coming back” and stuck with the NBA.

Five Guys is wildly overrated and expensive to boot. If I can get Culvers, which is better AND less expensive, why would I get Five Guys?

True. Cubs are lucky to even be playing a Game Five given how lethargic the bats have been.

He was great but this series’s story is a complete collapse of the Cubs bats and middle relief. Nats have scored more runs in the 8th (9) than the Cubs have scored all series (8)

Dusty Baker (possibly) mismanaged a pitcher? I don’t believe it! That never happens!

Said this at the time but Cubs don’t win the World Series last year without Bauer shitting the bed twice. So he’ll always have a special place in my heart.

As a Bears fan I’m already bracing myself for Watson to be a stud for a decade. Meanwhile, the Titty Kisser will be selling life insurance.

Remember when Dean Ambrose was white-hot over and then he jobbed to a hologram? Pepperridge Farms remembers.

Yeah, all those horrible players they brought in, man the Yankees must have been total trash before 2007. Just unwatchably bad right?

I’m a Bulls fan and I’m Team Bucks for the near future, or at least til Giannis leaves

Biggest problem with the Hawks isn’t Toews’s 10.5 million a year, as he’s still good but not great (and will look better now that Saad is back on his wing). Biggest problem is the 6.875 million going to Brent Seabrook, who’s apparently spent all that salary on pizza and Chinese food. To say Brent looks doughy is an

Don’t tell Hamilton Nolan this but the fact that this cop got off with a slap on the wrist for abusing Blake in the first place is because he’s in a union. Makes it almost impossible to discipline/fire bad/evil cops because of that.

Now playing

Memphis brawls are the best. Here’s one with Morton/Gilbert vs Onita/Masa Fuchi with Lance on the call in 1981

It’ll be the only way Pulisic ever plays in the MLS before the age of 35 you mean to say.
