id like to take a trip to see the grand cannon in arizona




i called last week to tell harry to stop that nonsense. i liked rowand, he did alot of great things while with the sox and helped win a world series. but the sox missed the playoffs last year not because of CF, but because of piss poor pitching and awful clutch hitting in the 2nd half. if rowand is on the team last year maybe the sox win 91, 92 games tops- still short of making the playoffs.

I wholeheartedly agree with your statements above and think your show has sounded much fresher and livelier over recent months because of the creative ways you've used listener input--parody songs, debates and ideas from the message board, Woodridge Ryan's odd relationship with Harry, etc. Boers and Bernstein used to be very good at this kind of thing--long before they shifted to the afternoon drive--but long ago turned against their audience and have thus fallen into a creative rut. Your ongoing commitment to reinventing your show--dramatically or subtly--through interactions with your listeners is what keeps me interested.

I'm only listening for the next installment of:

"What's in the Vending Machine?"

i've heard probably 4 or 5 interviews with hendry and they're all the same. if there's a question about the lineup or sending people down, that's not his business. if the team is sucking, he takes the responsibility and admits the team "needs to get back on track". if asked about prior or wood, he'll hope they get back to their form from '03.

he uses a lot of corporatespeak, and makes it sound like things are happening, and things'll turn around. but the team still goes nowhere. i'm tired of listening to him.

How can you be so sure a hangup would've been the outcome? Hendry has gotten a free ride in this city for a long time--both from reporters and from self-described critics like Murph, who always retreats from his hardened stance when interviewing the Cubs GM. As North has shown over the past fifteen years, sometimes refusing to give an inch results in interesting responses and rewarding discussion. Confrontation doesn't necessarily have to result in disconnection. In many instances, it's a pathway to understanding someone better.

I'd think an interview with Michael Strahan would really liven things up.

This sounds like the advice Miss Ivanna gave Brodie and T.S. in Mallrats.

Now THAT would be good radio.

I would love to hear a rematch. Maybe during the football season--the Beloved are playing the Giants again, no?

I used to really enjoy when you and Terry would have Patrick Reusse on the show on a semi-regular basis. He was a little edgy/grumpy and funny. Any chance of getting him on as a regular guest?
