No big deal. I do post some redundant stuff and if someone isn't a Cubs fan they may get tired of reading it. I don't post on Twitter or have Facebook so this is this place I tell my stories and post about the Cubs constantly. I really wish we had a Brewers fan in here or even 2, it would be fun for me.

 

I am sure if there was a Brewers fan here, you would not post anything to hurt his/her feelings. You got along with AMfootball when no one else couldn't. Lol. When she put down your favorite players and team, you did not demean her or the Pats. So, I'm sure you would get along with that Brewers fan.

I think the more the merrier. I wish more baseball fans would join. I notice that there are Orioles fans and Yankees fans but they don't post in this thread. While it is a baseball thread, it seems that only fans of NL teams are posting.

AM :funny:, that is a blast from the past. She was something else. AM loved her team and Tommy so I respected it, they win a lot so I had too. If we had Brewers fans in here I would take it easy on them but if they got out of hand with the Cubs bashing, then I can dish it out too :banana:. On the other forums I have been on, Brewers fans are just so jealous of the Cubs because they have never won a Championship. They go out of their way to bash the Cubs. I am not trash talking or taking a shot at the Brewers fans but that is clear to me by the way they post. Brewers have something good going but can they close the deal and get the ring? If they win it all, I won't like it but will be happy for the fans they have that are loyal and modest.

There would not be any bashing. Commisser J. Kirk won't let it happen. :D

 

I'd like to see a team who has never won a World Series to finally win one.

Link: Article on 30th anniversary of "Major League"


Behind-the-scenes stories about the making of "Major League" as its celebrates its 30th anniversary

“A League of its Own” but that might be because it was filmed at Bosse Field(Evansville) and League Stadium(Huntingburg)

   I coached against “Stillwell” when he was in HS

I liked that movie.

 

You seem to like women's sports more than men's?

Another period of USA Hockey on NHLN then something lighthearted before Pregame at 4 CST

 

I should watch something lighthearted. But a friend wants me to watch the first episode of a show called The Act. It is based on the life of a girl whose mother had a condition called Munchausen by Proxy. The mother intentionally made the girl sick to get praise and money. She said the girl had cancer and made her use a wheelchair which she did not need. The girl is in prison now for killing her mother. This occurred not too far from Indiana -- in Missouri.

This Nats bullpen is worse than the Cubs' bullpen. They are threatening to lose this game for Sherzer.

 

This guy Trevor Rosenthal has faced 9 guys this year and has yet to retire someone. ERA: infinity.  He faced 2 guys just now. He hit the leadoff guy, followed that with two wild pitches and walked the guy.  No outs. 2 men on. This new pitcher came in and is about to walk another guy.

 

This is laughable.

Rizzo struck out, that was a battle though. Wasted opp.

 

Same with Mets. Too bad we did not score some runs in the 8th. We just scored 3 in the 9th. It was 12-1. It is now 12-9. Nats closer is coming in.

They have an ERA of over 10, worse in MLB. 

 

Mets rally is about to end. They are down to their last out, still down 12-9.

    • BBZ, what do you mean when you say Brents will be successfully targeted because of his size and speed? Aren't those his good traits? 
    • Right. But we also are expected to draft a corner, So the fact that DeJean can play either position, makes me think Ballard could have his eye on him.
    • As a Ballard type player, he seems to fit the bill.  Big 10. Excels at zone coverage. Elite athlete. Special Teams standout, Good tackler. etc. Colts may be able to trade back, and still land DeJean   Considered one of the Safest picks. Seven 2024 NFL Draft Prospects Who Are Safest Bets to Succeed at Next Level https://bleacherreport.com/articles/10113875-7-2024-nfl-draft-prospects-who-are-safest-bets-to-succeed-at-next-level   DB Cooper DeJean, Iowa   A fractured fibula during a November practice tempered any excitement regarding Cooper DeJean's draft status. So he's not been in the same conversations as the class' top defensive backs, specifically Toledo's Quinyon Mitchell and Alabama's Terrion Arnold. DeJean's profile projects just as well or better than the aforementioned cornerbacks.   Three specific attributes set DeJean's floor higher than anyone else among the back end.   First, the reigning Big Ten Defensive Back of the Year presents the positional flexibility and traits to start at cornerback or safety at the professional level, with B/R's Cory Giddings highlighting his coverage skills:   "DeJean excels in zone coverage, but he's versatile enough to play man as well. He shows a smooth backpedal and the ability to keep his leverage and quick footwork with few wasted steps. Although he transitions well, there are times where DeJean hops into his breaks; allowing a step of separation.   "When in zone, DeJean does a great job of reading and reacting to the quarterback's eyes. Pairing that skill set with his route recognition, he often puts himself in good position with leverage and positioning.   "While working downfield, DeJean has the strength necessary to hand-fight with tight ends and bigger receivers, as well as the speed necessary to carry twitchier receivers downfield. He also does a very good job of locating the ball and playing through the catch point."   Second, the high school track standout is an elite athlete who captured Iowa state titles in the long jump and 100-meter dash. Many expected him to blow the doors off Lucas Oil Stadium. Unfortunately, he wasn't ready to test in Indianapolis after being cleared a few weeks earlier.   "His acceleration is incredibly fluid and super powerful," NFL combine trainer Jordan Luallen told The Athletic's Bruce Feldman last summer. "He's the best athlete I've seen in person, pound for pound."   Finally, DeJean adds significant value as an elite collegiate returner. Big Ten coaches also awarded him Return Specialist of the Year this past season. DeJean averaged 13.1 yards per punt return over the last two seasons. A top-notch contributor anywhere along the defensive backfield and on special teams will provide excellent value in the NFL.   Potential Landing Spots: Indianapolis Colts, Philadelphia Eagles    
    • He could, but I think he's way more athletic than people give him credit for and projects way better as CB. Definitely could be a good safety, but I think if we drafted him, he fits well as a boundary corner for us.
    • I think we need to sign a vet, but Jackson isn't it. Age and his dirty playstyle are non-starters for me.   JuJu definitely flashed pretty well in the limited games we saw him in. If he's healthy, I think he'll be a solid CB for us.   He dominated every WR at the Senior Bowl, specifically in drills that heavily skew towards WRs, often using techniques he was just really learning in the pro-bowl practices (mainly press man techniques). He dominated in the MAC and dominated at Senior Bowl practices, and with his athletic traits, he projects very well to the NFL. I see him being a dominant CB in the near future. I don't necessarily want to take a CB at 15, but I wouldn't be mad if we took Mitchell.
