Unless you have Apple TV+ you won't be fucking watching today's game. The fucking Ricketts have ruined this franchise. Fuck them and Apple TV

This team doesn't deserve individual series threads.

Your trolling game is awful. Ricketts had nothing to do with negotiating the Apple TV deal. Simple Frank might be right about something you are an genius. Go get your sixth booster Caller Cuck.

Yup and in 20-30 years there will be no cult like following of the Cubs because nobody can find the fucking games on TV

Just listening to Pat and Ron. Luckily baseball is a great radio sport.

Has no idea the passion of Chicago fans.
And this guy is a Chicago sports talk host.

I was not expecting anger and engagement by Cubs fans about choices that were made by David Ross. I was expecting White Sox fans to act that way. Not Cubs fans.

These games are over in a flash now. I love it. I have no need for the entitled assholes and their theatrics. Parkman taking 12 minutes per at bat so he can shake his ass between every pitch is ancient history now.

I still don't get Ross' hard on for using guys for multiple innings. It usually backfires on him. Today it worked.

It really has sped up the games, have to pay a bit more attention now that there is a pitch every 20 seconds vs 2 minutes like when Pedro Baez was pitching.
