Are they saying


A) Wins are irrelevant

B) The Cubs brass knows what they're doing/Wrigley sucks

C) Paul Westerberg is a talentless hack

wait wait wait wait WHAT. Do these guys ever not embarrass themselves on music?

No, Im guessing and I just threw that in cause I know it would piss off JORR

Did I just hear B&B tell Mac and Psiegs that the cub mascot story was innocuous and "people" blew it up into a huge story/thing for two weeks? These two morons perpetuated the thing.

Dan went all authoritative voice on how wins mean absolutely nothing at all.

"They are completely irrelevant. Don't matter one bit"
"The people who care about them are dying off."
"Intelligent baseball fans don't even discuss wins. They just don't."
"Nobody who's opinion matters thinks wins mean anything whatsoever"

And Mac went I am not sure if I hate the argument more or the way you say things like that or something.

Position players should get partial wins/losses. 1/9th of a win/loss per game. that would be an insightful stat.

Damn, I forgot to list the best one.

"This isn't even an opinion. It's a fact."

Even Terry laughed.

I originally thought this referred to the Cubs' win total this year.

It will turn out we were right about Hibbert.

You mean him being the best center in the NBA?

Which is Dan's point in saying it in the first place

That was rich. I have come around to thinking Bernsie killed Terry. He is lazy because of Bernsie. Bernsie is not Bernsie because Terry got lazy.

Such horrible, despicable people at Penn St. All of them.

How much did Dan's poker tournament raise?

Yeah, that was hilarious.

This guys are two dopes who suck cock.

what they're referring to (and I'm all for getting them for their predictions) was their oft-stated position for some time that he sucked. When he got good they couldn't figure it out.

OK, let me speak for the rest of us ignoramuses:

1. Winning is fun, whether watching on TV or more importantly when shelling out the cash. Winning makes it all the more better.
2. The people that care about winning aren't dying off because nobody grows losers, just ask Jerry Reinsdorf.
3. The number of intelligent baseball fans not discussing wins is too small a sample size. If the B&B show were dependent solely upon those listeners, Dan would be living out of his wife's purse and his son would have to take up a more intelligent (less costly) sport like soccer.
4. No matter what sport they are talking about, they can't get enough legitimate guests who they can proclaim as "experts" to espouse this philosophy of winning being irrelevant. They could line them all up and not get three over the next two months.

Bonus: The only thing more important than talking about winning baseball is what tangent the TV play-by-play man is veering towards. If only the former voice of the Rockford CBA team could wax nostalgically, coin catchphrases, or show any sense of clever (or entertaining) spontaneity.

Then again, none of that shit matters either.

Glad I didn't listen so I can say "Who Cares?"
