Needs something big...

But seriously, Hughes solo. The poll should be "Who gets to call the game during Pat's fifth inning shit?"
You two wanna go stick your wangs in a hornet's nest, it's a free country.  But how come I always gotta get sloppy seconds, huh?

Voting late '90s R. Kelly and an early '20s Javier Baez.

Does his daddy have more pull than his uncle, Bob Sirott?
Just a sloppy, undisciplined team.  Garbage.

That's what I meant.  Thanks, PANK.

Mark Grace.  He served his time.

I'm fine with Grace.  I'm sure he'd love a chance to move back to Lincoln Park and not have to worry about driving to work.  Of course I'm always partial to DAY VOTTO but I'm pretty sure his best chance was when he lost out to Moreland.  I'll be driven to PANKRAGE if it's Hollandsowrth or DeRosa (I'm not even considering that muppet Theriot as a serious contender).

If they decide they're going to hire Grace, wouldn't he insist on the TV job?  Would he prefer a TV job elsewhere over the Cubs' radio job?  And aside from what Grace would want, wouldn't the Cubs rather pair him with Len anyway for what I assume he'd be making?

If he chose the radio gig, he could still come in to work relatively shit-faced and/or hungover and only acute listeners would be able to pick up on it.
This is so bad, I'd root for the Orioles over this fucking team, but I can't. Because they're a fucking drug and you can't kick it and they'll never win anything and they'll always suck, but it'll always be sunny at Wrigley and there will be tits and ivy and an old scoreboard and fucking Chads.
