    ***Official 2024 Chicago Cubs Thread***

    Yeah, if it's a simple scoop, short hopping and off line throws are an entire different ballgame. You probably didn't have 200lb plus players running a 4.5 at you either when you played first.

    ***Official 2024 Chicago Cubs Thread***

    I actually played short in high school and college and could hit a top of about 85 and probably around 80 on normal throw. I wasn't anywhere near major league caliber. You guys think pros onky throw 80-85? Try 90-95, it's not as easy as your high school baseball glory days.

    It's too small of a sample size right now so you are probably right. If Busch keeps these numbers up though he's right in line with Alonsos OPS numbers. I'd rather have those numbers and cheap than pay 25 million a year.

    Isn't Busch under team control until 2027? He's a better overall hitter than Alonso and will be much cheaper. I'd rather spend on pitching than pay Alonso 25 million a year.

    Where is Busch? You're ready to give up on the guy with the highest OPS on the team after 1 month?

    If Busch backs off like 1st baseman are taught and let's Nico make a routine play things might have been different also. They just didn't get it done this weekend. On to the next.

    T.J. Tampa projected as first round pick going into NFL Combine

    Finally, at least he's going to a solid franchise so he'll have every chance to succeed there.

    T.J. Tampa projected as first round pick going into NFL Combine

    A tackle from B.C. just went. Not so bad I guess, Boston College has put a few guys in the league. Edit......British Columbia has more guys drafted than us now??

    T.J. Tampa projected as first round pick going into NFL Combine

    Go back and look at a draft 3-4 years ago and tell me how many guys you've actually heard of or on NFL rosters right now in rounds 5-7. I get your point that it's all about him doing what he needs to do once he gets to NFL camp, but I'm just stating the facts that the odds aren't on his side...

    T.J. Tampa projected as first round pick going into NFL Combine

    His odds of making it in the NFL are going down with every pick that goes by. Once you get into rounds 5-7 its full of guys who never end up sniffing an NFL roster.

    T.J. Tampa projected as first round pick going into NFL Combine

    What the hell is going on right now? Is he even going to get drafted at this point?

    Great, even more severe injuries and the playoffs eating more into college basketball season.

    ***2024 NFL Draft***

    It's not even remotely the same thing. Had they just singed Rodgers or Favre to a huge free agent contract from another team? It's absolutely idiotic but you know better than the rest of us and all the " idiots" who played in the NFL or do draft analysis as a profession. Jordan Love is only...

    I'm not questioning anything, I just know alot of people like you who are diehard Cubs fans but yet the Bears are beneath you.

    I swear every Packer fan I've met in my life is also a Cubs fan. Do the Brewers not exist for you guys? Why do they feel the need to be a Cubs fan and then trash the Bears?

    And...........you don't think it's a little strange actively rooting for 21 year olds who are from our own state to fail miserably? I dont want yo derail this thread, but like I said in the CC thread, it's really bizarre and disturbing behavior for grown men/women to actively trashing players...

    Nope, born and raised in Iowa so I've seen the rivalry for over 40 years now. It's innocent ribbing and being civil in my circles. On here it's nastiness and vitriol dialed up to 10 on most any Iowa subject.

    ***2024 NFL Draft***

    I do, 90% of people here were actively trashing the best women's basketball player in the country who also happens to be from Des Moines. Why would this be any different? It's a hint of jealousy combined with obsession. It's pretty obvious from comments on here alot of Iowa State people watch...

    Missing NW Iowa Men

    I watch that Adventures With Purpose channel on YT and it seems like law enforcement either blatantly miss or aren't trying hard enough to find some of these missing people. There was one in particular where a guys last known cell ping was right by a boat ramp on a large lake. They show up and...

    Missing NW Iowa Men

    This is the second one just in Iowa the last couple years where they end up finding a body in an area that had already been "extensively searched". The case of that Ethan Kazmarak, they found his car months later in a pond near the party at his last known location that had already been...
