  1. Yeah, I read Miz’s comments after the game that the mound played a role in the velocity stuff and that nobody in the building was worried about it. So that’s a relief. I think it’s good for him to continue working on the art of pitching, which includes how to handle having less than your A-level velo, and also how to handle preparation, listening to your body, and big moments in hostile environments. He was aces on all that stuff yesterday, and what else can you say about him at this point? He’s going to struggle for a stretch eventually, and seeing how he responds is really the last hurdle (that and maybe learning how to go deeper in games, but that’s also a structure of the game problem and not entirely under his control). As for today, I hope there are some boots on some north-side necks. They have a chance to go +3 on the season series against a major rival and the biggest threat in the division, and I hope they can do just that.
  2. Well, that was relatively stress free from Uribe. Nice confidence builder, I hope.
  3. The dugout view made it appear that Vaughn’s foot was on the middle of the base until the ball got there, and he was sliding it to the edge as Tatis slid into his foot. So it didn’t seem as bad as the first view. But Tatis did end up sliding into Vaughn’s side of the bag, and it was almost certainly intentional.
  4. If we’re not going to get any of the super-hyped prospects up this year, I think a post-hype Tyler Black would be a cool consolation prize.
  5. I know every fan base can do this, but I’d much rather have JSN and Gonzalez than LVN and Jordan Morgan.
  6. Great game from both QBs, unlike that abomination in Denver (albeit a weather-related one). I kept waiting for Darnold to implode, but he's in a really good spot here and Seattle has him playing his best. Kudos to him.
  7. I do not get that defensive holding call there at all. Hasn't been a penalty all day, and now you throw that? Shades of our NFC Championship against Brady's Bucs. You can't let only one of the two defenses be physical.
  8. Seattle’s defense getting away with all kinds of BS. What decade is it, again? The more things change…
  9. Put me down for “cromulently whelmed” on Gannon. Should be solid, but that was kind of the floor anyway on a defense with Parsons, Cooper, and our safeties. If he can make the group great (which is also a Gute problem, to be clear) remains to be seen. Certainly could have been worse. We could have gotten Eberflus.
  10. Apparently, a 49ers fan took the Seattle Seahawks to court on this in 2014 after the Seahawks instituted a similar restriction, clearly attempting to bar fans of their southern rivals from the stadium. The court ruled decisively in favor of NFL teams, so as far as I know, the restrictions have been legally permissible ever since. As any Brewer fan knows, of course, the resale market is another beast entirely...
  11. Since the window is basically next year, my personal preference would be: Tier 1: basically whatever stud coordinator doesn't get a HC job (1aFlores, 1bSchwartz, Saleh, in that order; either they get the D to ball out and leave for a big job somewhere after a year, or we fall on our face again as usual and its probably time for house cleaning anyway) Tier 2: Christian Parker, Jim Leonhard, in that order Tier 3: Then, in whatever order: Raheem Morris, Demarcus Covington, Derrick Ansley or whatever other name they can dig up (Aden Durde from Seattle? Somebody from college again?)
  12. My friend, we've all seen things most NFL fans wouldn't believe. Special teams meltdowns off double digit road dogs. Beastquakes in the dark of Seattle. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to log off...
  13. Oh, I fully expect that we would have played well enough to make it still hurt when we eventually lost. That's the Packer way. Plus Darnold is a meltdown waiting to happen. I mean, we have the script in the archives from 2014, so it is really not difficult to imagine at all. Darnold has like three picks, Love harassed all day by Seattle's front but somehow never gets rattled and manages a 260-2-1 line. McManus has a critical miss, and Jacobs fumbles in the red zone when we could have gone up two scores late. Instead, JSN undresses Nixon for a long, late score and the Pack lose by less than three. Love either never has enough time to answer or comes up just short. Just so we can have more silly discourse about keeping Malik Willis instead, or whatever the knuckle-draggers want to drool all over their keyboards about. No, much better we didn't see that, thank you very much.
  14. I’m not even watching this (longstanding antipathy to giving ESPN my money), but I’m getting a very heated play by play from my dad (parents are huge IU alums who have had nothing since Bobby Knight). I’m really happy for them after that pick!
  15. My gosh, IU, play some defense. I know I’m traumatized, but that felt like after watching Golden put the Pack back up two scores and then…knifed.
  16. Looks like they’re going to interview Christian Parker, assuming the Cowboys let him leave town after his interview there. Spent time with us as a QC coach under Pettine (ugh). Then went to Denver with Fangio and then came with him to Philly, and has coached their secondary ever since (that’s more like it). Interviewed with us for the DC spot two years ago, so he has those Packers connections the brass seems to like and figures to be a strong candidate. The media seems to talk about him as a “rising star” type. Shame he can’t pack DeJean with him if he comes over, because that could solve some issues…
  17. Now that Hafley looks like he’s definitely gone, this is the biggest moment of the offseason. I was going to say MLF is about to make one of the biggest decisions of his career now, as this DC selection could make or break things. However, I’m not convinced that he would get to choose whoever he really wants, since the sentiment out there is that we are very reticent to pay top dollar on assistants. As usual, I’m trying not to get my hopes up for a big swing here. We’ll get Covington or Ansley and have to like it.
  18. I’m not mad, the guy won he can talk his stuff. But it reeks of some little bro energy. Rodgers was just giving it back to the fans in the moment, but has plenty of other times said how much he appreciates Chicago sports culture and history. I’m biased, but don’t really see the equivalency. I mean, sure, if you’re Chicago, you definitely have to hate Rodgers. But how hard do you have to fake it to hate LaFleur or Love? Those two can’t inspire any strong negative feelings. It was such a bizarre move to come out from day one hating Matt LaFleur of all people. Did LaFleur buy Johnson’s mom a nice seafood dinner and never call her again? It’s just weird.
  19. Can’t wait for all the Chicagoans rationalizing this as a moral victory. Take it from those who have been there about 25 times before: there is no moral victory. If your team gets this far, you had a chance to win a title, and every missed chance is a real loss. End of story.
  20. Worst outcome averted.
  21. There’s no one left from that whole era of Seattle teams, and I don’t know any Seahawks fans personally. That’s not even a tough call.
  22. McVay lost his mind. My gosh this is just horrific
