    Definitely think it was to rest their pen.

    Laughable.

    I don't get it, isn't the decision to postpone a game one that's made between the umpires and BOTH managers of the teams playing that day? If this is indeed true about the Cubs though then that's really bush league crap for sure.

      Just the home team until the game starts.

        Am I the only who thought of Ryan Klesko seeing this #18 and his build?

        It's hard though...especially when I got my neighbor playing their franchise across the street...maybe I will occupy myself with Glamore Magazine.

                Haudricourt the dude who got mad online when the Cubs played Mike Olt in the Single A playoffs.

                the conspiracy theories are hilarious though.

                    20/20 hindsight - not sure the pen rest would have made much of a difference today. Cubs brought the hitting sticks.

                      And the Brewers really showed the Cubs their frustration over the "bush league" rainout. Maybe they were trying to get the Cubs to injure their backs from swinging too much.

                        So what is it with Sunday Night Baseball? Are they trying to make it like a talk show? What is it with all the extra curricular activity and chitchat? Just focus in the ******* game.

                            But why not though? Aren't we watching a game to watch a game? And aren't we allowed to be annoyed with the broadcast of a sport we want to watch being filled with sideshow garbage by a network that has specialized in just that, which has been the direct cause of its steep decline?

                            I don't know what was happening on tonight's broadcast because I didn't get to watch more than a couple innings but I just don't understand the urge for so many people to diminish other people's concerns and criticisms of things with "it's not that big a deal."

                              What? You telling me you don't enjoy Jessica Mendoza laughing at absolutely nothing 20 times a game.

                              No I feel you man, believe me. It's god awful.

                                If you're watching the game to watch the game, why don't you just mute the commentary? If the channel specializes in something you don't like, why would you watch it?

                                There are things you could do to either tell/show ESPN you don't like their commentary or things you could do to save yourself from how terrible it is, but people choose instead to complain. When there are so many simple solutions to the problem, and people don't want to take them, what conclusion can you come to other than "this isn't a big deal"?
