GDT - 9.27: Game 2, Cubbies at Bravos - Seiya later, Chicago!

Did anyone tell Ronald those last few SBs were meaningless to offensive production and winning a ball game

* lol went back and read the GDT. This was covered, my b.

Someone just ask Cheff to stop being the fun police all the time and I think this all sorts itself out. This board is not to continually try and prove the smartest person in the room.

I don’t mind people disagreeing and having arguments. I just don’t get name calling. Haven’t we all grown up a little. Seemed this thread went off when like 4 different people jumped cheff. Then it went to hell for no reason. Cheff has done some good work to bring the board Knowledge up but also dissolved the maturity level down. But there are many others are also to blame.

The Cubs announcers bitching about Acuña's "showboating" by removing 2nd base after his steal and taking off his jersey after scoring the winning run.

Talk about some whiny butt hurt losers. That said, their tears are delicious.

Honestly...I get their anger. Extra innings with the game on the line is not the time to celebrate individual accomplishments, especially one like this that was made up along the way. These games are crucial for the Cubs.

Hey, did you know Rickey Henderson is a member of the 10/130 club? AND the 20/80 club? Didn't think so.

You do realize Canseco, Bonds, and Soriano all took the base when they joined the 40/40 club, right? It's a thing that happens when you steal a base and do something like this.

Those guys aren't gonna bring me down after I joined the 40/70 club and got the #1 NL seed
 
I'm thinking Enscheff may have forgotten that the Braves are now a publicly traded corporation. Some here may actually own a minuscule fraction of the team. Does the possibility of earning a three cent dividend change the "we" versus "they" debate in any way?

Why is extra innings any different than a second inning delay when an ump doesn't see a fly ball.. or a delay on a review in the 7th inning.. a delay is a delay regardless of when it happens.

All individual accomplishments were made up along the way at some point. There was no 60 home run club or 30/30 club or “insert accomplishment here” until someone did it.

Acuna's historical season may be enough to move the braves to prime time in the playoffs

I think not having either NY market, no Boston, possibly no Chicago teams. These big market teams could help.. but we all know ManDick will still slot all the Brave's home games at 9:12 am
