Remember the good old days when I used to update this site all the time and actually had something to say? Yeah, those were great. They’re also over.
Oh, I kid because I don’t care. Truth is, I made a promise that when the Cubs headed back to camp, I’d start writing more often. The outlook over the next few weeks is not promising. March is looking a little hectic, frankly. So instead of leaving you in the lurch, I, being the thoughtful, manly man that I am have decided to do something about it. That’s right.Â
Like David Letterman after open heart surgery, or Johnny Carson on any given Monday, the show must go on. This time, with replacement hosts!
Not just any celebrity hosts, mind you. How about the manager of your Chicago Cubs, Lou Piniella? Would you like that? Of course you would, you simpleminded dope. You’d lap it up. Done.
How about the brains (take that as you will) behind Fire Lou Piniella? The good one with the really long URL, not the bad one with the stupid dot net one?
Done and done.
How is Desipio supposed to be the only site you’ll ever need if it’s updated once a week? So we’re fixing that. For the rest of March, Bad Kermit and Lou Piniella have agreed to join the Desipio News Team. Lou is probably Champ Kind, which leaves either Brian Fantana or Brick Tamland for Kermit. Uh…yeah…we hate to break it to him.
I’ll still be around from time to time, and of course, Karry Ling (who fancies himself as an older, less continent version of David Brenner) is still around, too. But this seemed like a good way to keep Desipio fresh, and to give Kermit and Lou a shot to plug their own Cubs site along the way.
Besides, when I come back for good in April, I’ll need the distraction. Trust me.

Are you saying boo, or boo-urns?
March 6th, 2007 at 2:49 pm
I support Kermit.
March 6th, 2007 at 2:52 pm
I am going to ruin Andy.
March 6th, 2007 at 3:07 pm
I’m just sick and goddamned tired of all this David Brenner bashing. He makes witty observations! WITTY OBSERVATIONS!
March 6th, 2007 at 3:12 pm
I can finally poke my head up again!
March 6th, 2007 at 3:42 pm
Oh. I get it now. I was confused before over at the other place, but now I’m not.
March 6th, 2007 at 4:46 pm
They’re saying, “Boo-YAH!”
March 6th, 2007 at 6:11 pm
Same, JD.
March 6th, 2007 at 6:27 pm
What do ya mean you’re going to need some distraction in April?
March 6th, 2007 at 8:00 pm
I don’t get itl which of those can read and writel Now what do we do.

Kerm’s still kind of a rookie. I’m not so sure about this, dude. Back when I was carrying Hank Aaron’s bags, I wouldn’t even think of sharing time in the batting cage with him, man. I mean, hell in a handbasket, whatcha gonna do?
March 7th, 2007 at 6:36 am
They’re saying MOO-vers

I told you that allowing gay marriage was going to screw everything up. But I’m man enough to congratulate Yoko. I’m sure he’s a nice fella.
This has got to break BC’s heart. He’s been 2nd on the depth chart all these years and got passed over again. Play BC or trade BC! Free BC!

So many questions…
Is Andy really getting married this month? If so, will the new Mrs. Dolan be referred to as the “Sports Gal”?
Does “FLP” become a “Desipio© Media Venture” now, or does the Desipio empire just swallow it whole?
Can we really expect Hank White to bat .260 again, and what evil will befall me when he does for having questioned such a feat?
Kerm–where the **** is today’s Dose?

I guess I didn’t kiss enough ass…
…jk. I know I’m not funny
March 7th, 2007 at 12:49 pm
Don’t sell yourself short Sloth, you kiss plenty of ass. He’s just not that in to you.
March 7th, 2007 at 12:57 pm
Why didn’t you ask me to write for your site? I have connections man!
March 7th, 2007 at 10:29 pm
I remember when Kermit used to write for my little blog. Now he’s taking over Desipio. I’m so proud. Don’t for get where you came from Kerm. Remember where you got your start. Or where you got held back. Or whatever. I’m hungry.

Mathew L. Shrake looks like someone painted a bad portrait of Dan Hampton and slapped it on the side of the building near the El tracks at Armitage. #15 must be a joke.
Anway, I am the best part of the Doses when BC substitutes.
March 8th, 2007 at 2:55 pm
I’ll never forget, Dan. Never. Forget.
