Oso planning to go pro
As a Cubs fan, I am looking forward to the fact Sox and Brewers fans are going to hate each other by the end of the weekend. For a few years it seems like those two fan bases got along because of their common enemy, (the way dogs and mice in cartoons get along because they both hate cats.) But I remember when they HATED each other, and always knew they’d return to those feelings when they met again while both teams were good.Brewers fans are Packer fans, and the Sox fans I know are not going to like them. And, if people from Wisconsin thought Cubs fans were FIBs, wait until they meet Sully/Tony who went to Rita/Mt. Carmel. It’s got to be 115 degrees in Miller Park right now; there are going to be so many fights.
Maybe it’s an age thing, but my kids (18-24) seem to really like it. Why I wanted it to be the Guardians:Above all, I wanted it to be something with a Cleveland connectionThe Guardians have always been among my favorite Cleveland landmarks - in other words, definite CLE connectionThe nearest guardian is about 500 yards from Progressive field - check out this great picture taken after last night’s game (https://twitter.com/indians/status/1418767336530661377?s=21)A Guardian is, in my opinion, something that embodies positive qualities for a mascot - strength, nobility, compassionThe Guardians are pretty bad ass and lend themselves to some cool logos. I really hope they are not done developing the artwork. I think what they’ve got so far is fine, but I really hope they lean into the imagery more with some other logos. I really didn’t like any of the other options I was hearing. Rockers? Are you kidding me…naming the team after a defunct WNBA team? Didn’t like Naps or Spiders. Bulldogs? Might as well just be Lions or Eagles.It’s unique. I know it sounds strange to some people, but so did the Lakers at one time. And probably the Clippers, Dodgers, Jazz, Pelicans, Seventy-Sixers, 49ers, etc. We got used to those. You know what doesn’t sound strange for a mascot? Tigers, Bulldogs, Lions, and Golden Eagles. Ugh!I was hoping for this name as soon as it became clear it was going to change. I’ll be buying merch as soon as it’s available.
County Stadium bleachers were an ugly place during Sox-Brewers games back in the day.
When is it time to start really getting concerned about Yelich?
The year after he got his contract and the juice wore off!I'm only half kidding.
what half? the accusation of him "juicing"? you got proof of that?
Juicing no. The centerfield videographer? Yes
Last night, Larissa showed what he thinks of his bullpen. He trusts Kopech and Hendriks. No one else. Letting Kopech bat in a close game. Using Hendriks for 2 innings. He wanted to salvage 1 game in an important series and didn’t want any other relievers on the field.
Hendriks also hadn't pitched since July 20, and going two innings on five days rest is ndb for him.Is wanting to salvage one game in an important series bad managing or something?
Yelich tested positive for covid
Yeah hes off to Chicago
Escobar was traded to the Brewers.
