Seriously, Fork can't play any position for us either, but at least he can fucking hit.  Why is Millar still around?

If Millar makes the team over Tracy, yes it's the 25th spot, but it underscores the motivation behind building this team, which is that guys who are nice to reporters have an edge over guys who are actually good.  Fanboys like Kap and Gordo Busfield--who I believe is the one who actually uses the word "Curse Buster" as a modifier, christ help us-- are so transparently subjective in their reporting of this.  Millar should not, by any rational measure, be in this godforsaken discussion.  They want a friend and a story.  Yes it's the 25th man, and I hate to be so fucking melodramatic here, but if Millar makes the team over Tracy I may pull the pin on 2010 already.

Hey, 162 games is a long season. You need somebody in the clubhouse you know you always get a quote from.

Then, to paraphrase a FAMOUS VERY WELL-KNOWN CUBS BLOGGER, make that person a coach.

Kaplan laying it on thick, almost to the point of being defensive about it'd

Probably because he got 50 emails from me after last appearance saying "Who the fuck were those people? Who is the Jim Essen guy? What is a desipio?" you really need to have the ACB guys on.

Mata Yeti'd.

That will never get old.

How do you feel about the Ricketts family squeezing revenue out of Wrigley Field?

Monday: Kap invites three morans to bat behind Tom Izzo for the final hour of Sports Central.

Hockey game on Tuesday, so no SportsCentral. Today, a published report predicts the imminent demise of Sports Central.

Chuck--

Why do you always insist on spelling his name with a "U"?

Is it with an "e"?  Interesting.  Then again, it's not like I see his name in chyron all the time.

Is this some jew thing?

It's a TV thing.

Any further questions should be addressed to Alvin Yellon.

He's in TV.

Ah, yes.  But Jews RUN the media!

Not, however, WGN-advertising outsourcing companies, it seems.

Forgot all about Judd Sirott.  Ugh.

Is George Ofman still butthurt about the departure of Casey McGhey? Because Kappo is.

Unless my ears are broken I think Pudd Sirott referred to Soto as "Tijuana Soto" during that home run call.

Tijuana Soto? Sounds like something you could by from some streetcorner Oleg down Mexico way.

Because I can't deal with Santo, I often listen to the opposing team's broadcast on my MLB At-Bat thingy.

I used to think Uecker was a pretty decent broadcaster.  Holy shit....he is about 73 different varieties of suck.   The top of the fifth inning of today's game was the worst play-by-play I've heard in some time.   Lost track of the score...lost track of the number of outs.   

And apparently, Zambrano is hurt?  I hope he's wrong about that too.

Cramps?  Doesn't this belong in a Rich Hill thread?
