I hope I don't get this excited about winning one game.

What were the Cubbies, 13-2 at one point and the glee was nauseating. What's happened since then? :D :D :lol:

Sux fans care about winning games. Cubs fans care about winning series.

Cubs had sipped on a little Rossi juice. Well, that shit's over. There's a real talent problem up there on the Northside.

Conns makes a great point: the Cubs have never gone 12 straight years in my lifetime without making the playoffs. And I’m old.

Go ahead and enjoy your night, Sox fans. You’ve earned this!

Who's excited? I'm not. I'll get excited when they beat a good team.

Sox bumped their record up to 6-9 vs. Cubs over last 4 seasons.

Just think if (big IF, I know) the Sox win then next 2, the record would still be under .500 for another 6 months+.

Wait, this doesn’t have anything to do with the thread, but I’ll respond anyway:
I commend MLB on the 1-day streak they had without COVID cancellation earlier this week!

At the end of 29 days, the score is:

Days with a COVID cancellation -25
Days without a COVID cancellation - 4

MANY questions are going unanswered.

I am not surprised.

You probably shouldn't have responded. Letting it go would have been the wiser decision than that abortion you just laid out.

I answered. Even gave you MANY reasons why the season is failing so far.

You used the word “MANY” and meant “one”.

Hoo boy?

This is not a two-way street. You cannot tout the Cubs "success" and lament the White Sox "failures", while simultaneously calling the MLB season a failure. It simply does not work that way. Either the entire season is a failure, or the successes or shortcomings of all teams are what they are. You cannot have it both ways.

Talk about having a night...

I know I’m just spinning my wheels here, but I’ll try. Again.

MLB’s plan for playing during the pandemic is failing. I’ve given MANY reasons why. They’re listed here and elsewhere.


This is where it’s gonna get tricky for you:
I was talking about the Cubs success vs the Sox over the last 4 years when you asked me what you thought was a ground breaking “gotcha” question about “failing”.

So yes, Chipmunk Cheek, I can actually talk about both at the same time. Because they’re two different things. It “simply works that way”.

This probably reads a little differently than you planned.
