You didn't just exhibit reservations about the Cubs winning 90 games. You were incredulous, and you were thinking us idiots for calling for 90 games.

They have to play .563 ball to get to 89 wins.
I do not think the Cubs have that in them this season. I think the best the Cubs might be able to do is play at a ~.530 clip (63-56) for the rest of the season, which puts them at 85 or 86 wins.
Look how incredulous I was!

You stated, in a post Ken bumped (funny you didn't call him bumping your similar post a "stupid thing")
You mean the post that Dr Ken started about the Cubs second half record that he bumped almost every week? Why would that be stupid. That was his thing. You bumping an old thread where I posted something that was incredibly reasonable at the time is stupid.
Here is the link to my ONLY post in that threadl
viewtopic.php?f=32&t=107438#p2754599Again, look how incredulous I was! I also never called anyone an idiot in that thread, or this one for that matter, do don't lie.
Did you want to do this?

Could, but it won't. The Cubs are not going to play at a .576 clip for 4 months. 88 or 89 wins will be the high water mark of this year's team.

My baseball knowledge does not have to be based on just six weeks.
This Cubs' team is essentially the same team as last year's. The early May 2017 Cubs may simply be the late June / early July 2016 Cubs.
Furthermore, in both 2015 and 2016, when I mentioned the Cubs would hit better once the weather warmed up, it was dismissed. And then it happened.
Why wouldn't the Cubs start hitting more in the next few weeks? Starting now, essentially.
The Cubs are winning 90 or more games. Would you like to put up a Benjamin that says that won't happen?

This isn't even close to being true. You should take a good, hard look at the last six weeks and get smarter on this subject.
You wanting to bet after chasing me around the board claiming I welched on a bet that was never made is rich.
You said I need to "get smarter on the subject." Yeah, you tried calling me an idiot.

Except for, you know, the leadoff hitter, the outfielders, the closer, no 3rd catcher, and the 5th starter.
You keep attesting to being a smart baseball fan, yet contradict yourself with posts like the ones I have quoted above, which were made barely two hours apart mind you.
I suppose your posts should be hashtagged "#IM Dumbass"
