I do not like the amount of attention that has been placed on this NL Central Champions thing. This isn't the goal.

The last time the Cubs won the NL Central they were swept in 3.

The Cubs are in the playoffs. Great. But there is no reason to celebrate. They are supposed to be here. This is just the beginning of the season.

Kirkwood gets it.

Celebrate this weekend. Then focus on the task at hand. Its a long season. Nothing wrong with celebrating a division title. It certainly beats the celebration and shirts that simply read "Postseason"

Set it at 9.5, and I will take the Over with a Washington.

I like the lineup. It makes me want to watch a pointless game now. Hopefully they do this a few more times before the end of the season. Be fun to watch the B aquad beat up on other team's A squads.

They kinda get their ass handed to them with the b+/a- squad when it comes to the brewers though. Councell's guys try super hard to win now that their season means shit.

I don't see the Brewers being bad for long. Counsell appears to be a good manager and they play some good, smart baseball for a team with as little talent as they have right now. They're on the right track.

No team of scrappy bench guys is going to out-scrappy Craig Counsell and his team of scrappy bench guys.

To be fair, if I were to inexplicably lose the wager, I'd just say that I interpreted your 'reduction' of the +/- that I figured you in turn reduced the wager to a quarter.

The weather didn't come into play as much as I had thought. Wind is blowing aggressively out but only the Brewers cared.

Hey Walt, if the Cub win it all this year, I'll buy you any pastry of your choosing from Weber's Bakery.
