Craig Counsell, if we're being honest, blew it. He was given a slightly insufficient roster and too little margin for error, and the #Brewers just outplayed the #Cubs when it mattered, but also, the big-money, Managers Matter free-agent star got outmanaged. northsidebaseball.com/news-rumors/...

Too Late, Too Little: Cubs Washed Out of NLDS by Better Brewers Team, as Pat Murphy Outmanages Craig Counsell

Craig Counsell lost all his staring contests, and he lost one too many big gambles. The manager who was supposed to save the Cubs when they were (just very slightly) outmatched couldn't close that gap...

The Yankees did the same thing to Ken Griffey Jr. when he was a kid. In the incident, the white players were allowed to have their children at practice but he was told to leave. He vowed never to play for the Yankees even if they were the only team offering him a job.

Vladdy admits why he dislikes the Yankees in a 2023 interview: "When a team humiliates you, the Lord grants you the ability to humiliate them

“It was me who was removed from the stadium, I was 7 or 8 years old, so I was like okay... Now when I arrive you're going to feel my presence in the Bronx."

If I’m Jed Hoyer I would simply kill my boss monster, Tom Ricketts, then use the coins that come out of him to buy better baseball players

Cubs fan with a Wrigley Field North sign surrounded by brewers fans which kinda makes it seem silly too

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

He was wrongfully imprisoned for 43 years. Moments after being released, ICE took him

Some of the best games I ever coached in had a hell of an atmosphere because the visiting fans traveled.

I live where they play the Cactus league, so I would love to see his mental gymnastics to rationalize that here.

I'd buy the streaming package so I could watch/listen to as many games as I could. I'd go to a game if I was back home. But no, I wouldn't go see them at the closest stadium. I wouldn't want to root against the team the people I live/work around support. That doesn't seem like a kind thing to do.

Cade Horton, on the younger core expecting to make multiple playoff runs in the future:

"That’s what we all believe. I think that’s why this hurts so much. But next year, it’s going to be a completely different story. I think all of us kind of just got our feet wet. So, next year, it’s time."

This is actually a cuckoo bananapants take, I don't care how many times someone has had to witness Cubs fans holding flags in your ballpark

Pfeifer Sports (Dan Pfeifer) @pfeifersports.bsky.social · 8h

I see going to root for the road team at a game like going to someone's house for dinner and hoping they set off the smoke alarm making the food and get into a family fight. You're hoping your hosts have a bad time. That just seems rude to me.

Serious question, have you covered a college game where opposing fans traveled to the venue?

Pfeifer Sports (Dan Pfeifer) @pfeifersports.bsky.social · 7h

Opposing fans are not fun. They attempt to rub in misery. That is not fun and is not enjoyable.

But I'm OK with staying on my side of the border for sports fans purposes. Will do, thanks. I urge others to do the same.
