You can mark Baez and Bryant down for 30 homers each every year, even though Terry has never seen them. But Abreu won't hit 30. I'm bookmarking this for future use. Oh, and I'm still waiting for Prior to win 28 games in a season. Maybe Terry meant 28 for his career.

I didn't get it either Jorr. The way people are saying he gets the bat on the ball I assume 30 by accident. Sort of the way Frank did it. Make contact and see it go. And before anyone jumps in I am not comparing him to Frank at all other than contact homers are possible.

The only way he doesn't get 30 is if he doesn't get enough at-bats for some reason. And then dumbass Terry just made up shit. "Most scouts think he won't." Idiotic and false.

I think I heard them talk about tonight's game for 15 seconds, while important topics like how bad of guys Coach K and Boeheim are, and how people returning to college for their sophomore season are idiots got many minutes of airtime.

These two lack any critical eyes at all. Absolutely re-taaaahded.

Pretty much sums it up. And how much he has come around on Tark the Shark and Calliperi is ok now.

I texted in about that. Lil' Danny was firing back at me. Even threatened to #block me. IS. THAT. A. THREAT.

dude, these guys won the fucking life lottery in getting hooked up with posh bullshit jobs that don't require any sort of thought/skill/effort. dan has reconciled the fact that he didn't live up to the stereotypically-jewish-high-expectations of doing something that MAKES. A. DIFFERENCE. in the world -- like being a doctor, lawyer, astrophysicist, etc -- by shoehorning in as much "social justice" crap alongside a so-completely-blind-you-could-ironically-call-it-faithlike embracing of newschool statistical analyses of sports so he can impart some "wisdom" on the listeners, as gentrifying the minds of his flock, erm, audience is the consolation prize for not having a real job that MAKES. A. DIFFERENCE.

terry, on the other hand, realized what the game was a loooooooooong time ago and is at peace with cashing his checks while dan runs around trying to convince himself that he's doing some form of the lord's work by gentrifying the minds of his audience. the dude's gotta be six figures to hang out and say yeah, which is bonafide "god bless ya terry" territory, so he's basically along for the ride whether he's there in person or whether there's a brown paper bag with a smiley face labeled "TERRY" occupying the 2nd chair in the studio because he's literally phoning it in from the excellence in diddling studios down in mokena.

so yeah, when you are able to take a step back from the whole spectacle and see the show for what it is, shit..... comeon kirkwood, who wants to fuck up the gravy train by having to put in all kinds of mad crazy effort to actually know what you're talking about? they're celebrated as being the longest running show in chicago sports talk radio not because they were always some otherworldly-awesome amazing super-show that destroyed any so-called competition in their wake and therefore it was inevitable that this chicago radio institution was going to give the gods a run for their money in the longevity department--- but merely because they're there. well and technically they're not ESPN1000 because who the hell listens to that?

it's endemic to our contemporary massmedia-installed culture to exalt anyone who is simply there for any significant period of time. and whether you love 'em or hate 'em..... i'll be damned if boers and bernstein aren't there in the same exact way that jay leno was there from 1992-2014. jay leno's (second) departure was made to be some big giant culturally-relevant event simply because the guy was there for the better part of 22 years, not because anyone actually liked him all that much or thought he was doing something great with the format.

i mean for fuck's sake i reckon someday there's going to be fond memories of "the matt abbatacola era" of the b&b show, and are you gonna tell me that he really did anything to warrant being the namesake of an era, or is it just gonna be another case of "you have to respect him because he's there" ??? c'est la vie.

I wonder when was the last time that Terry actually spoke to a scout or read a scouts reports or read an article about a scouts reports or watched a full game or overheard someone talking about a scouts report or whatever.

When was the last time you heard a Score host between 9-6 say "well, I was at the game yesterday"?

If all of these guys were really dedicated to their jobs they would be at games occasionally, in locker rooms, on phone lines to create a network of insider connections and spending at least an hour in production each day.

It is pretty much just a 4 hour shift and go home.

Are you shitting me? he really threatened to do that? Post the exchange if you can Id love to see it

Here you go. I texted in because all I heard was them taking joy in the fact that Coach K and the other "bad guys" aren't in the title game, rather than focus on the actual basketball over the weekend.

RSG: Are you going to discuss how great the Saturday games were? Or is it going to be a constant bitchfest?
Danny: We'll do whatever we want. Either listen or don't. Nobody cares what you think or do, either way.
RSG: I'm aware. I enjoy the show, but it's so god damn negative at times, when there is plenty of content to discuss.
Danny: No need to text, then. If your radio isn't broken, act accordingly.
RSG: Get the stick out of your ass.
Danny: One more insipid, witless text and you're blocked.
RSG: Anything but that!

So I may or may not be #blocked.
