Wow Zach is horrible tonight. He sounds like he's got a few in him with his translucent-at-best mockery of callers. After cutting off the first caller and literally going HURR DURR THEO SUCKS and plugging baseball wizard chuck garfien, he turns around and mockingly decrees that Theo obviously got lucky with the red sox and HA HA....
then the next caller is more thought-giving and zach is suddenly flipping sides back and forth, saying there's no guarantee that tearing it all down works and what entertainment was there in a 101 loss season, BUT WHAT HAVE THE TAMPA BAY RAYS WON!?!? then he talks about all of the "shrewd" signings the redsox made, and i can't help but think...
manny ramirez, coming off of a ~.320/45/160 type season in cleveland aged ~26-28 or something, signed for like $200mil in boston. david ortiz wasn't developed in boston. pedro martinez wasn't developed in boston. curt schilling wasn't developed in boston. josh beckett isn't a boston farmhand. i mean seriously, boston might have developed some homegrown guys, but i'll be damned if they didn't go out and spend huge money to acquire top-of-the-game talent to supplant their homegrown guys with.
zach is clearly having a hub complex where he's talking out of both sides of his mouth. i'd do better to remember that there are an infinite number of things i could be doing as opposed to listening to this garbage.
Sini, you are a good man and brave.
I'm thinking ZZ is going through a turbulent period at The Score with Lovie leaving and all the ZZ Bears Minute stuff with Mac, he is probably feeling some heat at the station. Maybe he doesn't give a shit anymore, maybe the Bears organization fired him or they are not giving him the cock sucking access anymore.
I dunno, he seems like a man at the end of his rope.
