The past 8 minutes or so of them just riffing on the installation of Cupich was as entertaining as you could hope for.

It's all downhill from here.

Terry is ON today. He even said 'asshole' on air.

Are people really that stupid that they still feel some inherent compulsion to completely and actively reject reality and pretend Rose said and/or meant something completely different than he did about the same topic on more than one occasion?

In reference to the thread title, I found this website about the Chicago Cardinals football team to be quite interesting.

Mama, don't let your baby grow up to be a Bears fan ...

You know, I thought it was former WCCW head referee Bronko Lubich being installed as Archbishop.

am i the only one put off by the use of the word installation? we aren't putting up a flat screen tv here.... it's just a change of leadership.... do we cover presidential elections by saying installation 2016? what am i missing here?

You're the best person ever.

Did I just hear them say that John Feinstein was fired a moment ago? Because that would be so beautiful if true.

Nice. Not to bask in anyone's misfortune, but that is great to hear.

From the Medieval Latin (c. 16th century) installare, to place in (ecclesiastical) office by seating in an official 'stall' (not unlike the 'cathedra' he sat in during the service) ... you may make your jokes now about him sitting in a 'stall', which I don't think was called that until the latter half of the 20th century (e.g., did you see the Archbishop taking a leak in the stall instead of at the urinal after his installation? That guy's nuts ...).

Bronko survived there by being part owner/booker of the promotion. Things got worse when Ken Mantell took over, then David Manning. Of course Bronko was also a long-time wrestler, too. He may have been old, but he was believable in that role. (Always loved it when he'd rabbit punch some overbearing heel)

This is the second day in a row Dan has broken out the "I can't believe a guy with a law degree would ______!" construction in reference to some minor grammatical error. It's like a law degree doesn't even bestow infallibility anymore!

That was classic 'Bernstein takes the joke the wrong way and makes it unfunny' stuff. Speigs with the drop of 'not going to give you a dissertation, Rich', and Bernstein multiple times points out 'he said DESsertation! that's not a word!'. Um, sure, maybe his misspoke. Not that the drop itself was hilarious but the joke wasn't him mispronouncing a word. I guess it is truly funny for Bernstein given how he feels about law degrees.
