Post subject:  6/13: The Cubs Are Now Human

Dan started this way yesterday with Jason and is now continuing it today. Now the Cubs are paying attention to their newspaper clippings, paying attention to their fans. Now the emotional side of things is happening with the Cubs...Dan even said today that essentially, these guys are not robots.

Then on top of that Barry has the gall to have a Terry voicemail moment where he relates a story from spring training where a guy in the know said the Cubs would "keep their powder dry this season". He wondered aloud if Theo didn't have as high of expectations for this team. This went on for 20 plus minutes. The Cubs apology tour continues today.

Where are the supporting stats for these alleged emotions? Somebody get Joe Sheehan on the line!

Right. Theo knew the Cubs probably wouldn't win the WS again this year so he's not really trying.

He did it again! The Cubs were "prescient" and knew that they should not "go all in" this season. Riiiiiiiight. Never mind the financial investments....

The Bernstein compares hitting in the MLB with his son's 12 year-old league. Apparently, this league "outsourced" a pitching coach who told the kids how to blah, blah, blah....

From "How. Does. This. Get. You. Closer. To. Winning. Multiple. Championships?" to "well, it's really hard to win multiple championships back-to-back, so they're smart not to try."

Wow. :lol:

How does he rationalize this garbage? I mean, he's got to know he's doing it.

Point out that he's wrong and he'll get aggressive on you. I think this anger insulates him from self-examination or a desire to learn.

Falling off and jumping back on a bandwagon that many times has got to hurt.

They are going to have multiple bites of the championship apple.

Well, not this year obviously, but still.

Theo's just biding his time until the NL adopts the designated hitter. The Plan Version II didn't assume Schwarber would be even worse offensively than he is in the field.

Post subject:  Re: 6/13: The Cubs Are Now Human

here is Dan summing up what he is trying to say, said today to Mark Gonzalez:

"Has this micro analysis of what the Cubs are and aren't had any effect on them?"

This from the same guy that ran people off the phone suggesting that the Cubs would be nervous due to fan pressure and endless writing last year on the team. This might be his ultimate WYC.
