Good point. Although Bernstein goes above and beyond with Stone. It's one thing not to attack him. It's another thing to lick him when he says dumb stuff. It can't go unnoticed that Stone spews baseball thoughts that Bernstein hates without Bernstein challenging him.
Zack Zaidman works for the Score and Bernstein treats him like shit. The Score pays Zaidman. Although ZZ is Jewish so that goes against my theory. Hmmmm. Maybe you have to be a univerally loved J.ew for Bernstein not to attack you. Zack isn't at the level of Theo Epstein and Steve Stone in Bernstein's mind. So there. That explains that.
