Re: Cubs self-destruction thread
[ QUOTE ]
[ QUOTE ] Error, bloop hit, bloop hit, homer in the first row. The Cubs give up like 5 times more homers in the basket than they hit. Yes, they are bad, but sick, sick luck this year has made it even worse. It's painful to watch. [/ QUOTE ] Yeah, yeah, variance. We get it. They'll win about 60 games from here on out I'm sure. Once their warning-track shots start falling into the basket, and the bad guys' don't. [/ QUOTE ] Well, if you like most people buy the idea that there's no such thing as clutch hitting, then yeah, I guess variance is playing a big role. If you had read my post, you'd see that I also said I know they are a bad team which means I'm not making excuses. God forbid you read the damn post.

Re: Cubs self-destruction thread
Everything about this entire telecast made me want to kill myself. The actual game, the cut-scenes of Cub fans, Joe Morgan speaking, it was painful.

[/ QUOTE ] radio was invented before 1908. they probably weren't broadcasting baseball on it yet. yahoo seems to think jacque jones is actually 1-56 after 0-2 counts as opposed to the 0-54 reported on espn last night. does espn.com carry this split data anywhere? i wonder if there's a discrepancy there.
