Goff not comfortable with calling white people "crackers". Thanks Goff. We appreciate it!

He's a stand up guy.

He doesn't have to look beyond Jason Heyward 2016 to answer that question.


Heyward may be the best right fielder in MLB.

Schwarber is lucky to catch a cold. Not a real good comparison.

The Heyward comparison is not perfect because the contract situation. A better example is another struggling prospect who happens to be black. Byron Buxton. He was sent down, like Schwarber and has around the same number of AB's


Good point about the money. But at some point it's a sunk cost. Granted, they were coasting to the playoffs during the regular season and Heyward sucking didn't matter.

But he played Heyward in the playoffs in the first 2 rounds when he sucked. Then finally benched him in the WS I think. Or maybe it was the NLCS.

Just saying, it had nothing to do with color with Maddon.

Like I said, Schwarber is being benched against lefties.

Turned it on in the car to hear them discussing the racism present in 1960's and 70's TV and cartoon shows.

Why is this on the air in Chicago?

Because it's the #1 sports show in the city.

How do you know they are reading a paper schedule?

I recently watched an episode of Good Times and was surprised to hear the term "spook" thrown around casually, though it was James Evans (John Amos) saying it and not a white person.

Go to an Indian reservation and listen to young people call each other redskin. And then there was that final all encompassing poll about how none of them actually give a shit about the Washington Redskins. That was backpage news after being front page news for so long.

Decided to grab a cigar, and taking a break from podcasts I fired up the Radio.com app, just to see. I get teleported into a conversation Dan and Jason were having about Ferguson, reading texts and tweets from people pointing out that antifa's are also anti-American and MANY support communism, one of the deadliest ideologies put to use on this planet, Jason incredulously asking when America was ever great, and talk about a high school basketball prospect who accelerated his eligibility.

It was a Woke Radio superfecta.

Lincoln fought the civil war to praise Hillary for her work in Libya, I think.

They just interviewed Jed Hoyer...talk about stretching your metaphors. In discussing the bullpen as it relates to September callups, Bernstein agreed with Jed's statement saying that extra bodies in the pen will help: "Yeah, it's like adding bread crumbs to your low-leverage meatloaf, right?" Jed must've been thinking WTF.

And then Dan led the witness on the topic of the bullpen dances: "I'm sure you guys are just fine with those, aren't you?" What's Jed going to say? He said they were fun because they arose spontaneously/organically, but he could see them dying out at some point.

I salute a host who prepares for an interview, but with Epstein and Hoyer, DB always comes across as someone trying to impress them.

Any other team besides his beloved Cub and those dances get two days worth of ridicule.

Did he say or mean "below-average"? or do we have to add another one to the Fake Band Names thread?

Another example of something Goff didn't want to talk about but did so that it could be talked about correctly. He's fast becoming a local radio treasure.
