Chicago Cubs fans - Rebuilding Year 2023

[Deb & Bill]

Pins and needles. Kept turning over to the Indian/Yankee game during the breaks. That was a pretty good game. Glad the Yankees lost again.

I don't like the Yankees but we'd have home field advantage over them if they made it to the WS.

Don't care. Hate the Yankees as much as I hate the Mets.

believe it or not I was rooting for the Yankee's for no other reason than to have it go 5 and wear both teams out a bit. Lindor strikes again to cut the 5 run lead to 1. I don't think NYY will come back from tonight's blow and that will make things WAY too easy for the Indian's. Astro's on fire tho.

 

[Deb & Bill]

But aren't the Diamondback uniforms the ugliest? They just disappear into the background. Dodgers will be tough to beat.

I think the Yankees are pretty resilient. Bad loss for them but it will just light a fire under their butts.

I am hoping but between the WC game, travel, losing yesterday and then blowing a 5 run lead into extra's..I think today was the fire. They struck first, Kluber didn't even last 3 and then kept adding on..only to go thru their pen and go down 2. I mean, I'm not saying no chance (esp after we came back from 3-1)but that was a rough loss.

Yeah, they're the same kinda ugly (maybe even the same colors) as the Tampa Bay (are? were?). NFL, not MLB. Never cared for the bucs, so honestly do not know...I think it's the current ones.

Yes. The weird darkish gray ones they wore last night are the worst. Ugly. Their other ones - I think they have 4 or more- aren’t as bad.

wow..D-Backs hit 4 homer's off of Kershaw (2 B2B) and don't get the win. Unfortunately they were all solo shots but all I know is Kershaw has that haunting memory in his head now. I'm the odd one out~ I like the scale type pattern on AZ uni's and really like that they have one of the few uni's out there that actually takes on their name, like a snake . I like the aqua letters as well. I just want them to win in it against the Dodger's lol. Hopefully their game plan is to assume they were gonna take the L against Kerhsaw esp right after the WC game and come back to rattle the living crap out of them now.

did anyone see the call on the NYY/Indian's game..HBP that actually hit the bat? Game changer, wow. That would have been 3rd out , instead it allows Lindor up to bat and Grand Slam. How did Girardi not challenge that?

OMG those Tampa Bay Bucs uniforms are the worst. I watched the TB/NE game on Thursday night and those uniforms hurt my eyes.

I’m going to have to watch that. I only followed it on my phone. Couldn’t change the channel and mojo. Didn’t want to “mess with things” in our game if you know what I mean. : )

The thing w the AZ gray tones is that it can look like it is soaking wet / sweat bc of the darkest part below the neck.

I am reading the comments and I am laughing so hard there are tears running down my face.

"I took his class he taught at my school in DC last semester and he gave everyone zeros."

"I've had a lot of professors who thought they could just blow the material by you. Not Karl. Hes very precise and even when the class gets excited, he remains calm and delivers the material exactly when and where its needed. He reminds me of my first professor Maddux."

"Kyle does a really good job of letting the material sink in. He's not going to overpower you with a fast-paced lecture, but he's able to keep the material on the ground without getting too lofty in theory. I think he's a super-underrated prof."

"Cool as a cucumber when class is in session, but don't underestimate him. You better pay attention because his material is wicked good and you won't see it coming. A++ professor."

"Sometimes the speed of the class feels like it is slower than most, but he compensates for his slower style with a wide array of movement from one topic to the next."

today's lineup gang~ a year ago today Lester threw 8 shutout innings and Javy hit one heck of a homer

I saw the play on highlights today...only watched the Cubs last night and whatever updates Pat and Ron gave on 670. I was shocked they didn't challenge that. Now they have to pull off 3 in a row.
