The bottom line is, they shouldn't open up their damn mouths about a trade until after they look at the medical records. Second time this has happened in a major trade. Third time a major trade was reported "imminent" or "done" then reneged.

It's bad enough they are dicking Cubs fans around with this motley crew of players for a few years while they play fantasy minor league baseball, but they don't have to do it with important trades, as well.

That said, The Cubs seem to take the brunt of it, so I cant dismiss it being them

They probably really don't and it's just that they're the ones you're paying most attention to.

I would cover for SHARK, Drop In, Dave in Champaign, my Mom, and Urlacher's Missing Neck. After that, the list gets pretty thin. There are a few people about whom I would definitely fabricate charges.

There is not a damned thing wrong with people who are bull shitters.

Mike Olt is going to the Cubs.

Will Mike Olt perhaps be going to the Cubs?

I'm seeing double.

Just like Mike Olt.

How do you get CJ out of Carl Fleming Edwards? And the dude is 155 lbs. Makes Sale look like a body builder.

That 3rd guy better be pretty damn good.

@Evan_P_Grant I've heard 2 version of deal: One with Olt, Edwards and Rougned Odor. Another with Neil Ramirez substituted for Odor.

If you hate Laurence, then don't listen - don't comment. When he co-hosts the B&B show, take that day off ... listen to an old podcast of a Bernstein solo show and jerk off all day.
