  1. LOL, Jhoulys freaking Chacin against the meat of our order and we can't even move the runner from 2nd over. That should do it. Great work, offense.
  2. Given the option, I would certainly rather have Billy McKinney back over Derek Fisher. Unfortunately that ship has sailed. They must really not think anything of Corey Ray at this point.
  3. Dammit. We really needed to take the lead. Fisher will fit right in to the Robertson/Lopes/Reyes role of guys who get a cup of coffee here and offer zero value.
  4. And looking like another gem. Boxberger has been way overdue for some regression.
  5. I'm going to be so annoyed with the organization if the only reason we had a 3 headed monster in the rotation was because they're only good if they bend the rules.
  6. Is it possible for this team to just lose a game or two and then go back to winning, or do we absolutely have to go into total free fall every time we lose a game or two?
  7. Can we have our sticky stuff back? Our hitters can't hit regardless, so we may as well take the advantage for our pitchers.
  8. Yeah let's not kid ourselves, Arenado is still a really good player. He is not the problem for St Louis.
  9. Or longer is fine too.
  10. I mean yeah they were a really good team in 2010, obviously. Most of their bad stretches in 2010 were during injury riddled times. The difference between the defense in '10 and '11 was night and day. I don't know if that's picking apart 15-1, the defense was just really bad and Rodgers had to be godly and while that worked in the regular season it wasn't enough in the playoffs. I'm not really sure what happened as the defense was quite good in '09 and '10. I think they had some pretty rough injuries in the secondary and never really recovered from losing Nick Collins. I also don't think that BJ Raji ever really developed into the force that they were hoping for. He always struck me as a guy who was content getting by on his natural talent and wasn't willing to put in the amount of work that was needed to be great.
  11. 15-1 is 15-1 but that was about as faux of a 15-1 as you can have and I never felt great about that team going into the playoffs. That 2011 defense was so bad.
  12. We're very fortunate that 2010 happened or I think this era of Packer football would be widely seen as one of the bigger postseason failures in NFL history. Maybe we shouldn't have been there in 2010, but there were other times in the Rodgers era that we should have been and weren't. 2010 is tough to gauge because we were such a different team at various points in the season. There were times when we looked unstoppable and times that we didn't even resemble a playoff team. It's hard to say we weren't the best team by the time February rolled around, though. The divisional win in Atlanta was the point where I crossed over from doubting to realizing that we weren't going to be stopped.
  13. Our parents grew up in the sports era of enormous losers and zero expectations (70s/80s Packers and Brewers, 80/90s Bucks, pre-program development Badgers). We grew up in the sports era of great regular season teams and enormous expectations that were never met. I'm not sure which is worse.
  14. I'm more concerned with the Brewers than the Reds. Losing 4 in a row is not a good trend. Need to start turning this around and not start letting the wheels come off again like in early May. We just either are playing great or playing awful there is no in between.
  15. Is getting it down to 13 with 1:23 remaining in the game really flirting with needing you put your starters back in? I didn't say they had crossed that line. It went from 21 to 13 quickly and if it gets down to single digits then yeah you're probably there. I've seen it happen and it is awkward when it does.
  16. Ahem viewtopic.php?p=1353970#p1353970 Yeah I know you stressed the importance. Wasn't specifically referring to anyone here. Just social media, etc, a lot of folks didn't seem to think it mattered much if we were the 2 or 3 if we weren't the 1.
  17. Nothing in the NBA is more cringey than emptying your bench in a blowout and seeing them flirt with the line of "maybe we need to put some starters back in."
  18. Yea, but Brooklyn would have picked up the intensity if they needed a road win. So it's just that easy? Pick up the intensity? The home team is 6-0 in this series. It has been enormously important.
