Once again, there's a reason why I put the word "Bad" in quotation marks. "Tournament of Bad" voting resumes this afternoon on the "Boers & Bernstein Show", exclusively at TournamentOfBad.com. More details on when voting begins again are coming up, as there will be 32 "games" going on. By the time Terry & Dan crosstalk with Chris Rongey & Laurence Holmes for "White Sox Baseball Live: Presented by Miller Lite" around 5:45P this afternoon, they'll be down to the "Sour 16" in this year's annual event. As for the actual sports talk...

_________________

Voting for the "Tournament of Bad" starts up @ 2P at TournamentOfBad.com and nowhere else. All they've got planned is "The Second Half" @ 3:30P & White Sox tickets for the home opener next Monday vs. Kansas City to be given away between now & 6P. Matt Rodewald is once again on update duty this afternoon.

As advertised, "White Sox Baseball Live: Presented by Miller Lite" with Chris Rongey & Laurence Holmes follows @ 6P. Sox DH/1B Paul Konerko will be among the guests with Rongey & Holmes tonight until 8P. Holmes' own show, complete with "Ask Herb", follows at that time. Wayne Randazzo has updates on both "Sox Live" & Laurence's nighttime SCORE. Randazzo will also have the latenight SCORE @ 10P. "SCORE Overnight" with Les Grobstein & Adam Harris follows @ Midnight.

Where does the "worse" come in, SHARK?

The "Worse" has to do with the "Tournament of Bad" itself...That's the whole idea.

I don't get it.

Team Cutler.

Voting for that starts up again after the legal ID & Rodie's update. The "Bad" is the "Tournament of Bad" and the "Worse" comes up when the "Sour 16" is revealed in the final hour.

Oh, now that makes sense.

"Callers Named Bob"...Other than occasional calls from the Daily Herald's Bob LeGere during football season, might that be a "Tournament of Bad" nominee for next year?

Bob in Park Ridge hung up on them.

C'mon guys! Let it go with Derrick Rose already!

Up the dial, Bulls TV's Stacey King reminded listeners that the Clippers' Blake Griffin missed his rookie season with a knee injury. Look what he's done since.

Tournament Of Bad is awful.

Guys! Enough! Everyone is bummed that Derrick Rose hasn't returned from his torn ACL unlike other athletes with similar injuries. It's one thing for team doctors to clear Rose, but guess what? The man who signs the checks hasn't. That's still Jerry Reinsdorf. Until the Bulls' Chairman/Owner gives the green light, this conversation is a moot point.

If team doctors have cleared him to play, doesn't that mean that Reinsdorf has, in effect, cleared him? If he didn't want Rose to play, he wouldn't have let his doctors clear him.

SHARK...I think Reinsdorf has cleared him...

It doesn't matter if he's been cleared by Jerry Reinsdorf. There's still one person who needs to clear him, and that's also Jerry Reinsdorf. In a related story, Jerry Reinsdorf. Hi, I'm Dan Bernstein.

They immediately dismiss the caller who spoke to a Simeon assistant coach who said Rose would not return this year. I would put that caller's credibility on the same level as one of Terry's "guys." I'm off to Silvy & Carmen for the rest of the day.

Darren Rovell is on right now...up the dial.

And that's a tough go out of the chute. I can't stand Rovell. He's the penis of penises, SHARK.

When he used to be at CNBC, Redskingreg, Rovell was not only a regular on this program, but Bernsy followed him on Twitter. Since he went back to ESPN/ABC News, I don't know if Bernsy still follows him, let alone mentions Darren.

Tuned in for about 5 minutes and had to turn them off, they are really beating a dead horse with this rose injury.

I've heard enough myself. Besides, didn't former "B & B" producer and part-time SCORE host Jason Goff, before leaving for The Game SportsRadio in Atlanta, mention something along these same lines a while back?

It is truly and utterly amazing that two goofs who are paid to flap their gums about sports can have the authoritative opinion that the New York Mets are "bad, just bad, uh, eh, uh, bad at baseball" without having the slightest clue about who the fuck is on the team.
