2016 MLB Season Thread Baseball • Page 316

On the plus side, unlike when Chuck Knoblauch got the yips and couldn't play the sport anymore, he still manages to be an ace.

 

Yes. Willing to donate up to $5 for his future contract.

 

Looking at free agency, I'm glad the Tigers are going to be sellers. Weak free agent market benefits us, someone will hopefully overpay for some of our players (JV, Kinsler, JD, etc.)

 

let me know what you end up buying. at a minimum i'm going to buy a t-shirt, hoodie, and pennant. that's just to start. not to mention all the commemorative sports illustrated type books that will come out, any blu-ray/dvds, etc. gotta live this one up haha.

 

I marked off at least like $500 in things I want to get eventually, but it'll be veeeeeeeeeeeeery gradual haha

First up is this hoodie though: Men's Chicago Cubs Majestic Black 2016 World Series Champions Fierce Streak Fleece Pullover Hoodie

 

I spent a lot of money in 10, 12 and 14.

 

Reading all the comments from Cardinals fans complaining about Matheny getting a contract extension has reminded me why I hate them.

 

I thought I was going to buy a shit ton of gear when the Cavs won, but most championship gear is trash. I need a new block C Indians hat was going to get a WS one, but not anymore!

 

Parade is tomorrow already, hot damn

 

Lol I was always just terrified when a ball went in his direction.

 

My dad and I had to get the hats. I can't imagine it ending there, though lol. Need a new pennant to go alongside the 1907/1908 one.

It wasn't a dream. I'm still so excited.

 

almost certainly going to the parade tomorrow

Which hat? My partner's mom apparently got us all this hat, which I'm pretty sure the players were wearing on the field right after. I'm definitely getting this hat soon - Men's Chicago Cubs New Era Royal 2016 World Series Champions Side Patch Low Pro 59FIFTY Fitted Hat

I wish I could. I live in Madison, but going to the northern suburbs of Chicago tomorrow to my partner's house, but I have to work.

 

thankfully my boss was like "you're not working tomorrow, right?" haha. sorry you can't make it man.

 

well...haha i was wrong on that one wasnt i

nothing gets the tears flowing quite like happy old people

 

nice

 

No joke I came into this thread to ask how many times did Drew try to say the Cubs were done. That's not even all of them.

 

wow im shocked. i had to look it up. Strop and Rondon DID pitch in this world series.

 

strop in a couple games, rondon just once? and didn't he give up a 3 run hr?

 

any epic highlight videos come out yet?

 

I mean I called the series over after game 4 hah...

 

Because he sucks. He's just happened to have good talent to cover that up. My issue with him is they have all this good talent coming up and he's gone on the record saying it's not his job to develop them. Mozeliak has to send guys down to the minors to make sure they get the playing time to develop. In the long run it's going to screw them.

Mike Matheny should be fired
