Actually, thinking about it, I'm underselling how bad his thought is.

A good portion of the Cub players absolutely know and care to some extent about the history. I'd guess the majority. They're professional athletes. They are looking for any edge, any thought to motivate them. Hell, Dick Butkus used to make up shit to motivate him. Jordan, quite naturally, held a high school grudge for 25 years.

There's no question those guys walk out to "their office" in June and see 40k fans out there and think to themselves what it would be like here in a NLCS or World Series. They aren't doing it for the fans. But that doesn't mean that fans can't motivate them. History can motivate them. Among other things.

In summary, that article should be humped by a cow in heat.

I actually think bernstein has it absolutely backward. There is no value in winning the Pennant except in so much as fans care about it. If there were no fans the ability to hit a home run or pitch a shutout would mean nothing at all.

I lasted one paragraph into this garbage: http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2016/10/23/ ... he-moment/

It's obvious the organization agrees with you as they invite old players to the game and sell Wrigley Field t shirts.

Also, Theo is very open about his knowledge and appreciation of the history of the game

Boers sounds weird.

Weirder.

Yeah. Terry's voice does sound a little different. Like he's talking with something in his mouth.

Some type of jaw surgery? He sounds slurpy.

Terry definitely got emotional. Something about not wanting it to happen this year. Because the Cubs are so good, or because this is his final year at the Score?

The future holds the possibility to be great or terrible, and since it has not yet occurred it remains simultaneously both.

Terry sounds a little like Doug.

Our hotel smelled like dead hooker vagina (before you ask I had gotten a detailed description from beardown)

This thread is as good as anywhere I guess... There is a lot of dismissing of Cleveland being broadcast today. Hosts, guests as well as websites. I am amazed the Indians were ever able to make it to the series. They probably shouldn't show up and play.

He starting to sound a little better or I'm just getting used to it.

Maybe he just needed to warm up.
