will it be historically remembered?

injuries will be the excuse.

That murderer's row lineup has shot itself in the foot a lot this year but it goes back to pitching.

2004 i guess. but that team was full of assholes.

Not sure he has even seen '84 or '89 yet.

i was there for 84. it was terrible.

89 they didnt choke. they just got beat by a better team.

Would have helped if Les Lancaster knew the count.

or if Maddux didnt tell Wil Clark where the next pitch was going to exactly be

to clarify im talking about non playoff choke.

They blew a 9 or 10 game lead in '77.

i dont think it was that big of a lead in 77. I think it was 2 game at most. talking about in sept.

8.5 games on June 28.

june who cares. back then they could be up 20 games in june and you knew they would choke in sept.

have they had more than a 5 game lead in the division this season? it seems like they've always been just a few games up with either the pirates, brewers, or cardinals nipping at the heels.

with the way the season's gone, i don't think it's a choke. it's just a sign that their team still needs pieces to put it together.

i think the largest lead was 5 like a week ago, or 5.5. they just shit the bed since then and the brewers been hot.

I'm not sure how some of you all go outside every day. Too pessimistic.

Should've traded for Shields weeks ago to avoid this. Probably would've been pretty cheap.

Is there some sort of contest going on to see who can be the top baseball 'tard? Only reason I can think of a thread like this being made.

You are obviously not reading the Bears threads. Cub fan angst is sunshine and blowjobs compared to that.

It would be slightly irritating, but really how can you complain that much? Three straight NLCS, a World Series win and another likely 90 win team whose biggest free agent signing didn't play much and Bryant sat about 50 games. Plus the "closer" played half the season.

I'm surely not ready to say the Cubs will not win their division. They lead by 2 games and have the tie breaker in the division. That said, they should certainly win a spot in the playoffs, even if it's via a wild card berth and once the post-season begins, anything is possible. It is my preference that they retain the division crown, but making the playoffs in any manner gives them a chance at another title.
