This is something he should be happy with, it means people are listening.

Not sure I can list 5 Learyisms, outside of "I was going to kick that guys ass if he said one more thing about my Expos tryout, but I was busy reading a comic book because I am such a geek, but then some babe wanted to go out with me, so I left my moms house."

"When doing the calculus"


@bigfan - or phrases he's beaten listeners over the head with causing them to drastically reduce their listening. B&B used to be a everyday listen. But now its same shit different day for them. I check in here and there after transition but they don't hold my attention for more than a segment or two like they used to.

I don't know if it qualifies, but yesterday he talked about how great the Kentucky-Wichita State game was, and then a little while later talked about how the games may be exciting but not good.

I don't even know what that means.

I was more referring to him talking about how the games weren't good, but he talked about how great the Kentucky game was. He didn't even say something like "Besides the Kentucky game, the games weren't good". Now, he did that because it would be a wrong statement to make too. There were other great games.

It was like two different guys.

That's what happens when you have your narrative before the event and then you gotta try and fit everything in around it.

Kentucky game was only good because Kentucky represents the NBA minor league of college BBall according to BeerStain.


Every game could have been played perfectly and the reaction would not change
