I think that, leading up to the election, he's going to do something very frightening. He'll talk about the minorities who stand against him, and he'll say something like, "them? They're not going to vote!" This will be interpreted by his followers as a message of voter suppression, and Election Day will be the bloodiest in our history. And since many police departments employee white supremacists, it'll be very ugly.

I think you do raise a good point that Election Day could be violent and horrible. Hadn't really thought about that.

Like fights at the polls? What do you have in mind?

Everything.

Nobody has ever gone broke banking on the worst in people.

There will definitely be many places where minority voters will likely be targets, I fear.

Good thing there isn't a movie literally coming out about an election day filled with citizens murdering each other.

13 Hours? I heard that sucked.

Jeff Garlin and Jeremy Piven on back to back days? Might as well make John Belushi a permanent member of the broadcast team, Tony Siragusa-style, at this point. Someone should face criminal charges over this.

John is still a better choice than Jim.

Jeff Garlin's Pat Hughes imitation is worse than my Harvey Wittenberg.

I was listening to that game on the radio in the car on the way home Monday, and my wife woke up from the nap she was taking in the passenger seat to demand that I turn it off until he was out of the booth because he was so fucking annoying. Pat was getting very obviously irritated that he was shouting over the play by play

Well, I guess there was no point in calling security for a well-being check last Monday (when they at least had a carrier): WHPK has bedbugs.

Good luck getting that vinyl to 118°F for 20 minutes.

Who the fucking hell is doing the play-by-play tonight? The closest thing I can come up with to compare to the dismayingly nasal delivery is Mandarin at its worst.

Jeff Joniak, who normally is ruining already terrible Bears games on the radio.

Jeezums. I'd rather hear Coomer going solo. I had the volume down to background-noise level, but the Contreras "get outta here" delivery made it to my ears. I may have to switch this off entirely.

The Score should be fined for putting Hub's moronic sports opinions on the air, especially on baseball.  He's completely clueless and I wish he was a Sox fan.

Our old friend Chip Caray's shouting over Dansby Swanson's first MLB home run proclaimed it to be an "inside-the-park bomb," which is not a thing because if it was a bomb he wouldn't need to run so hard. It makes more sense than "line drive base hit caught out there," though.

He didn't even have to run hard. The Nats' outfielders appeared to be jogging. And their catcher didn't even pretend to attempt a tag at the plate.

It reminded me of this:

Whoever the fuck Jon Sciambi and Chris Singleton are, I would like to express my true appreciation for their talents at yammering so incessantly that I remembered that Gameday was still available in case I wanted to figured out what the fuck was going on in the actual game.

I find Sciambi's style incredibly irritating. Co-sign.

Also want to recognize how good we have it. Len and JD are a delight. Pat is Pat. Ron sucks, but hey, three out of four ain't bad.
