good god my heart

 

[Eephus]

My bad. I forgot that in baseball, everything, from the strike zone to a simple tag call, is completely arbitrary and random. 

It's a game played by humans for humans

 

[Capella]

I agree, this is fundamentally supposed to be ENTERTAINMENT.  Reviewing every scoring play?  Get lost.  NFL, 3 challenges per game, win them all, keep them all, challenge absolutely everything but ####### you challenge scoring plays too.  It kills the entertaiment value to go back and look at this, ditto baseball. 

Go back to boundary calls and thats it.  Put technology in like tennis uses for the foul lines and be done. 

Yea, kills the atmosphere at a stadium. Team scores, place goes nuts, oh wait we have to see if Mike Evans' ballsack was down at the 1-inch line. Just so stupid. Don't even get me started on offsides replay in the NHL. 

 

[Limp Ditka]

Why yes, as a matter of fact I am fantasizing about punching Marlins Man right in the face 

 

[Grahamburn]

Harper gonna tie it. 

 

[Shula-holic]

Harper gonna tie it. 

These guys have to make him throw a strike first.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Nats swinging at bad pitches left and right.

Hit John Lackey with your other hand

 

[Grahamburn]

Up with the heater will get him.

Get rid of replay or give me robo umps!

 

[Smack Tripper]

Get rid of replay or give me robo umps!

I agree

 

[thayman]

Well that figures.  Good game and good luck Cubs.

 

[Kraft...]

more junk

 

[Craig_MiamiFL]

W

Wasn't pretty but Wade got it done.

 

[Smack Tripper]

Nats didn't deserve it but I'm sick of the cubs already

 

[Ghost Rider]

Pathetic ABs by the Nats that whole inning.  Losers. 

 

[Grahamburn]

Wade Davis. Impressive. 

 

[Eephus]

Jeez

 

[Limp Ditka]

Well. It was inevitable. A ####ty manager was going to win this series

 

[Grahamburn]

Great series. Cubs win the honor of getting swept by LA. 

 

[Smack Tripper]

big changes comin in Natstown, gotta shake things up big time, too much talent to be this decade's version of the milenial A's

 

[bshell27]

Can’t wait to see Harper in right field for the Cubs

 

[gump]

Great series. Cubs win the honor of getting swept by LA. 

You realize the next step is the World Series...

 

[Capella]

7058 days since a D.C. Team played in a league semifinal. Not great. 

 

[Smack Tripper]

These Shills on the TBS postgame not even addressing this pickoff nonsense

Redskins aside a terrible sports market.

 

[Limp Ditka]

So Dusty is what now, 0 for his last 11 in games his team has a chance to clinch a series?

In the modern era

I dunno, every game I've attended there has seemed pretty packed and lively. It's a transient place though so it's difficult.

DC teams are now 0 for their last 13 in games with a chance to advance to the conference finals. A marriage made in heaven. Or hell. Or DC.

Yea. But you guys have some seriously amazing food there. Never a bad meal.

Compared to?  I'm biased by retail support...which isn't the whole story...but no one buys Nats product, Harper is typically not even a Top 10 player which is crazy.

Heh...well everything looks good compared to the Rays I guess. 

Also the Nats product is super ugly and boring. I've bought a hat from every stadium I've been to and passed on one there. Terrible logo. 

 

[gump]

Should be an interesting All Star Game event there next year...

 

[Limp Ditka]

'I was going to go to Wade for six outs, but what's the difference between six and seven outs?'

 

 

[Grahamburn]

You realize the next step is the World Series...

You lost me. 

 

[Grahamburn]

Can’t wait to see Harper in right field for the Cubs

Maybe they'll take Heyward for him this winter?

 

[Wrigley]

Well, that was fun. 

 

[Swing 51]

Last night was awesome. Tonight is going to suck.

 

[gump]

You lost me. 

You have a lot of confidence in a team who hasn't made that step in a long time.

 

[Grahamburn]

Game 5 replay on MLB Network. Only 2 hours long...

 

[Wrigley]

Nats got hosed.  Nats-Dodgers would have been much better.

I didn't know Dusty was a FBG

 

[bshell27]

I didn't know Dusty was a FBG

They couldn’t beat a Cubs team that couldn’t get on base.  Not sure they would have fared better.
