Len Kasper- It might be the beatdown of watching that shit team,but he sounds very bored in that booth. I think he is overrated

Jim DeShaies-His humorous quips lay flat on a younger generation. His baseball acumen is fine,nothing very deep. Out of the 4 though,I like him best.

Post Game on Comcast:
It's OK but I think it's crazy having this show when the team is 25 games out by may 14th. Waste of time.


not much has changed except for Coomer. How is he?


Awful. As bad as bad can be. I like Pat & Len, but the analysts are fucking terrible.

DeShaies is good and Coomer is faar less annoying than Moreland.

I mean Coomer is bad, but there's no terrible accent to go with it.

Pat Hughes is one of the best.

Coomer is better than Moreland.

Len is good.

JD is okay.

Deshaies has no personality & is not interesting or engaging. Same goes for Coomer. Sure Moreland was bad, but saying that Coomer is better than Moreland is like saying that Steven Berger was better that Maya Gavin...its a tallest midget award. Stoney is by far the best Chicago Baseball TV/Radio analyst in Chicago & it isn't close. We deserve better than guys like JD & Coomer.

I didn't think a home run call worse than Farmer's existed but I think Judd Sirott has him beat.

Judd Sirott is...mediocre at best. At everything.

He can't seem to get any call out cleanly live.

I have to admit.........Coomer is approaching mediocre.

He was talking about something the other night and I thought "that was actually a pretty good thought". His biggest problem is his laughter and giggling at anything remotely humorous that Hughes says.

Never had a problem with DeShaies. Let's admit it: they royally fucked up the Brenly deal.

JD is getting better, but still below average and well below the Level that was expected of the bigger deal he signed to replace BB!

I just assume by the time his deal is up he will be just good enough in the eyes of the viewers that he and Len will have a Brand that the CUBS will want to keep.

However, i could see them offer less money, which JD might walk on and the Cubs will be OK with that.

Coomdog.....GOOD! Stories, good rep with Pat and knows what's going on in the game. Been listening a lot at work, road trips and working outside.

Didn't notice until 2-3 weeks ago but Andy Masur is back from Padres pxp. They need to talk to Judd and say sorry but ya gotta switch with Andy. Masur is MUCH MUCH MUCH better.

Know both guys pretty well. Whats weird if you sat at a BBQ with them in the backyard, you would without a doubt say Judd would be a much better listen, but Masur is better on the radio.
