Fieldcrest 34 Tremont 7 end of 3rd qtr.

The thing that is left out here is this: For the three seasons after the 2016 win, the Cubs have had 3 new pitching coaches and three new hitting coaches. No one talks about this. Why the turnover? Speculation is that it was Maddon, some say it was the players, while other said it was Epstein. Whate...

Kyle Ryan simply is no use if he can’t throw strikes. 66% of his pitches were balls which lead to the tying run. Another great outing for Darvish goes for naught.

Yeah, this is real bad. Guess we will see what Russell is made of.

I think that we are seeing why Peters left Michigan, not very good! In addition to that, we have had 3 misconduct penalties and a player ejected for targeting. Yet still ahead by 4.

Self distruction. Illini Up 24-13 and moving the ball,THEN they try a reverse and fumble. So why a reverse. Mind blowing.

Illini sure don’t look like they are ready to play against a team that they are 20 point favorites. Now another player gone for targeting. That’s 2 in 2 weeks.

Mitch was a pro style quarterback. They had tunnel vision. The Bears wanted him and looked no farther. Hoping that he succeeds, but he doesn’t fit the Nagy styled offense. With that I think that they have invested too much for him, plus gave up a lot. They won’t unload him.

Connecticut on the road will be the key game. It’s not the opponent as much as it is a road game. Have tickets for Nebraska so am hoping that they are 3-0 and get a good crowd.

I told a Packer fan this morning that Amos will probably burn the Bears tonight.

If Adam Shaheen can’t hold onto that ball , he is no use to this team.

Do we have any routes other than sideline routes?!

Think the offense could have used a little pre season work?

I don’t disagree about the great bullpen and with pitch count, but warming up in the bullpen every day taxes the arm. But can’t disagree with what’s working.

They deserve all the boos that they are getting.

A monster shot!!

Wow, Heyward’s lack of offense is killing us.

Offense is vanilla, rather boring. Meanwhile our d backs are being picked apart by Rodgers.

Because of what happened to Hicks earlier due to overuse and Martinez well documented arm issues, I was surprised that Cards used Martinez in 4 consecutive games.

I like this lineup even without Baez and Bryant. Just need to keep the pedal to the medal. Every game is a must now.

Adam explained all the issues and it is so unfortunate that the PJS owners just don’t understand what customer focus means. Waiting until Sunday to see results of Friday’s football just doesn’t cut it. And with the early print cut off, I don’t see and earlier deliveries. Not sure what one is relevan...

Garcia is 0-2 with 2 strikeouts while swinging at everything in the dirt. Oh yeah, he is batting 5th and has stranded four runners. Like I said a mind boggling move when Joe has a better player on the bench.

Meanwhile Joe has Heyward leading off when against a lefty and he is currently 0-20. BZ is still on the bench and Garcia is starting at 2nd. It is really mind boggling. Punishment perhaps.

Last year we had a chance to close out the Brewers last year and didn’t do it. We just repeated it thus year.

This is the Justin Cub fans wanted, but we got Justin Wilson instead.
