    Wow ugly for the Cubs. Perhaps it's not over yet!!

    This game is quite boring as a casual fan with no ties to these teams.

    George Carlin is a timeless comedian. This quote is from his book, and fits this situation well tonight... "Here's another thing: I love losing streaks. I wish some year a baseball team would lose 162 games. I especially like decades-long, postseason losing streaks. In fact, as soon as my teams are out of the running, I start actively rooting for the Cubs, Red Sox, Bills, and Vikings to get as far as they can in the postseason so that ultimately they can let the big prize slip away one more time. I think it is an infinitely more interesting news story for a team to repeatedly fail at the highest level than it is for them to finally win. If the Cubs ever win a World Series, the news coverage will be the most boring bunch of **** you can imagine."

    A sports writer saying one thing in an article and saying something different on another form of media? Color me shocked!!

    Why did they leave Kluber out there? That most likely cost them the game. Lame.
  6. Vanimal46
    And the wheels are falling off for Cleveland...
  7. Vanimal46
    Bold move by Bryant. That lanky guy beat the tag.
  8. Vanimal46
    Alright we have a ballgame here!
  9. Vanimal46
    Come on Ramirez....
  10. Vanimal46
    Klu bot was reprogrammed after the 1st inning. Now it's in shut down mode.
  11. Vanimal46
    Just settling in with beer in hand. Cubbies already got to Kluber eh?
  12. Vanimal46
    In theory I agree. Problem is there is no top notch FA pitcher to sign. The Twins can't afford to stand pat with their current staff, so trades are the only alternative left.

    You could always start a beach side seafood bar and grill! Or teach tourists how to boogie board. Edit: The bar could be called "ChiTown's Cuts: Fresh Shrimp and Lobster caught daily!"

    Once again it's going to be 70 degrees at first pitch tonight. The weather gods are cooperating for November baseball between 2 Midwest cities....
  15. Vanimal46
    Will he be wearing the Paul Bunyan uniform?
  16. Vanimal46
    Per the Election Thread, we all know your plan...... Finding a boat to take you to Cuba!
  17. Vanimal46
    You're entitled to this opinion. We'll never come to an agreement however. I'm trying to think of any pitcher that would prompt an interest in trading Sano. Thor and Sale are the only ones where I would.
  18. Vanimal46
    Sano is also on his way. First 162 games of his MLB career .260 BA .871 OPS 37 HR 101 RBI. We are talking about Miguel Sano, right?

    I've got to imagine social media is a huge factor why we're all getting tired of this... It's nearly impossible to escape it. And as Levi just touched on, there are message boards all over the internet to find your version of what's right and who the idiots are in this country.
  20. Vanimal46
    Honest question: Has this country ever been so divided when it comes to an election in your lifetime? This is the 3rd election I've had the opportunity to vote for, and the gap between the parties is so extreme that there doesn't appear to be any middle ground this year.
  21. Vanimal46
    What's your thoughts on that? It seems like insurance premiums are going up across the board.... My car insurance inexplicably went up as well this year. Thought it was going to decrease considering I'm 26, no accidents, haven't even been pulled over in 2+ years since moving to Austin. Shopped for quotes at numerous places, and all turned out to be the same range of $600-650 every 6 months.
  22. Vanimal46
    North, you have any openings at your company? I'm already practicing my Canadian accent and spelling.
  23. Vanimal46
    Understandable. My thought process is acquiring someone like Holland gives the Twins more flexibility to shop Santana and not rely on Mejia/Gonsalves to come in right away. For the price of a borderline prospect such as ABW, there's not a lot of risk to acquire Holland.
  24. Vanimal46
    FWIW, this was on the MLBTradeRumors chat: Adam 3:11 Who do you see the Rangers trading Holland for? Steve Adams 3:12 No one that great. Someone will pick up the tab on him and either send back a reliever with a not-insignificant price tag or some borderline prospects. Holland is a decent upside play because of the 2018 option, but with all of the shoulder injuries and knee problems over the past three years, his contract doesn't have much in the way of surplus value for 2017. I think exercising it (or trading him to a team that will) is the right call though.

    You may want to shield your eyes when some of these FAs sign this winter.... Also, don't even bother looking at basketball contracts. Those will make you question whether we're living in a fantasy land.
