Bryant is on pace to go 28/101 as a rookie that missed 3 weeks.

Schwarber has 15 HRs, including 3 multi-HR games in 3 months and he doesn't even have a position

Arrieta

You kept Baez and he's hitting .313

Castro is some good trade bait now

It's all coming up Milhouse.

Spot on.

Here's a couple of Arrieta tidbits for your post ... he's only given up 3 runs in his last 8 starts ... 8-0 (included for JORR's benefit), 0.43 ERA, 0.705 WHIP in those starts.

Remember Tid Bits? They were great. No, ... wait; I misremembered ... I meant Doo Dads; but I think Tid Bits were part of that snack mix. Nevermind. Forget I mentioned them.

2 games out of having the 2nd best record in all of baseball after tonight.

Doo Dads...Before Chex Mix in bags there was Doo Dads in a box. Nabisco branded at the end before they went away. Grandparents always had some in cupboard.

Why don't we drop this subject ... it's one thing to engage in badinage with these youngsters, but this sort of thing could be so easily misunderstood...

I get it. It means nothing really, but that's still impressive for where they've been the last few years.


Maybe worry more about whether the Saints can get to .500 this year

I don't think they will and I flat out don't care. I've grown tired of Brees & Payton and I've hated Benson for years. No, that's not entirely accurate. I want Brees f-ing gone. Like yesterday. I told you, I'm really getting to the point where I don't enjoy watching the NFL. Seriously.

At some point I'll change my avatar to a flower that isn't NFL approved, but that would require effort I don't feel like wasting yet. Until then, I'll just bide my time watching college ball and another ordained Cubbie failure.

I'm telling you, if the Cub win it all RR is going into seclusion. Can you imagine his blood pressure with media coverage of a World Series winning Chicago Cub organization?

Damn!

Just remember, for your health and our safety, if the Cub do lose in the post-season, call your doctor if it's been more than 4 hours.

Are the Sox playing an exhibition game after the season is over?

Dunno, but if they do, it won't be as satisfying as watching the Cubbies get their asses kicked in their only playoff game.

Damn Don.

You're close to the list.

It's a sad moment.

Damn, I hope you guys can become respectable within the next decade. You Sox fans need something else to look forward to.

"You guys"? I don't draw a check from JR.

But as for what this Sox fan needs to get by during a bad stretch, Cubbie losses & Cubbie fanboys pain will suffice.

I'm sorry you've never known (& delivered) true Pleasure. The depth of the Cubbie curse must be a hell I never imagined.

4 hours. Child's play.
