Living in Atlanta, raised in Fort Wayne. Which is where my love for the Cubs, open wheel racing, hockey, IU basketball and Notre Dame football was fostered.
@CubsWorld80 Counsell built this by trashing the last 2 months of the season with stupid decisions that cost games. Fire Counsell, Cubs will never win with him as coach. He gives up to easily.
@ll_Cubby_ll@Cubs The team is absolutely deflated. For the last month it’s been a player gets hot at the plate and does something good and then he gets sat down to rest the next day. It’s been let’s let rookies get the ABs that veterans should be getting. It’s been a manager showing what not to do
@TheRealJackTupp@Cubs Webb isn’t a closer, Theilbar pitches to contact — not a strike out pitcher. Zepherjan has closer type stuff and can make bats miss. He’s just sitting on the bench.
@Cubs@WatchMarquee@MotorolaUS Fire Counsell! He sucks as coach — he miss manages the bench SO SO bad. Why are you bringing in a pitcher who has now blown 3/4 games in a row. And you actually have a guy who can close and has closer type pitches.
@vfc19221120@CubsWorld80 When he’s used correctly he’s pretty good. When they just throw him out to clean shit up. Nope not what he’s good at. He’s good in fresh innings and closing situations.
@ll_Cubby_ll@Cubs It’s not odd. It’s coaching. They failed in those same situations under Counsell now it’s the Cubs losing and failing in those games.
@Cubs Common now, the Cubs have got to get better coaching than this. Boyd started to loose it in the 7th. Why was he in for the 8th? WTF Counsell coaching for the Brewers in this game?
@Cubs Can we fire Councell now!? Big day yesterday 17 runs scored. So he changes the lineup around for today!? And dump Amya dude asks for everything up. And the pitchers get absolutely pounded when he catches.
@chicago7738 @ChicFilaMan@Cubs@MLB But it was Pomeranze that threw the cookie 94mph fastball with no movement belt high. Any swing worth while from college up was going to go out on that damn pitch.
@Cubs I’m going to say what everyone is thinking. It’s time for Counsell to feel the hot seat. He should be getting talked to about decisions leading to loses. Fire his ass if the Cubs aren’t able to turn this around soon. He’s losing the clubhouse.
@TheDuke0525@adamgorney Gotta play a full season. We already have been told this when they left OSU out for losing early. It’s great they got hot, but the loses in the early season still matter.
@adamgorney Oh thanks for the explanation. It’s the good old fucking eye test metric. 🙄 Maybe that why people are botching because we’re saying we don’t want a return to opinion. We want facts. Fact is IU didn’t lose to a 6/6 team. Ole Miss and Bama did. Facts.
@how_many_roads_@ESPNCFB@KirkHerbstreit@PatMcAfeeShow Man a CFP that isn’t owned by a network. And a committee that would be independent of any conferences, with no bias and a clear path of entry — just facts not feelings. Yeah that’s the dream.
