i agree. i think hughes loved working with ron. who cares if he was a total homer, he was entertaining.

No way is he overrated. His home run calls are bad, though.

Loved the clip Nick D would play where Ron said something like "you know, I didn't have a lot of balks called on me when I played" and Pat deadpans back "well, you didn't pitch much, Ronnie, did you?"

Heyward? That's surprising.

I like how he's been playing lately, though.

I feel like he will be significant in the end here.

see that's what i mean--he did bring out the best in hughes, even if all those quips were spoonfed to him because of ron's tendency to be irresponsible with his words. it was hilarious.

Cubs lose by 3 or 4 runs tonight.

Get the fuck out of here.

If somebody wants to get me a ticket and drive me to the game, I can guarantee victory.

I'm 12-0 for the year. Cub fans probably want me there. But I'm going to a fancy wine dinner tonight with the biggest Cub fan I know. I'm sure he ain't happy but we paid three months ago. I'm sure he'll be checking his phone non-stop.

I agree. I think all those lefties the Dodgers are going to run out there are going to light Hendricks up. That little fucker Toles worries me.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

Good wine might be the one thing he likes as much as the Cubs. I'm sure we can catch the end at Jak's. Fucker better not rush me.

I've watched Montero's homer no less than 30 times.

Kershaw is going down. You can't pitch the guy everyday.

So are the World Series champions

Ryne Sandberg has to be the worst sounding analyst I've ever heard. I couldn't imagine playing for this guy. He just drones on and on and on...

He's always been like that. Dude seems creepy as hell. Loved him as a player, though.

I guess I never remembered it, but you are right about the creepy part. Its just funny that Hollandsworth has to cut him off to take over his blabbering.

Wow, I thought I had a lot of Chicago sports stuff but that guy they just showed on CSN pregame was loaded with Cubs stuff.
