Maybe you are onto something. Rongey from his White Sox pre game etc. may have a bigger contract already than any of the producers trying to edge their way in. If the score goes cheaper than Rozner level maybe he is it.

Julie was, of course, entirely correct despite her malaprop ... Dexter Fowler will indeed be black with the Cub, I have no doubt about it.

Whoever is doing updates today (Rodewald I think?) just said that the Sox are either trading for players or trading to get players

You like giggling little school girls?

wait what happened to julie?

She apparently recently did one of her deopy updates and said basically what I noted up above ... she was supposed to report that Fowler would probably be back with the club as soon as this weekend, but she moved the "l" in club and instead put it into the work "back" and thus said that Fowler would black with the Cub etc.

You were listening closer than I was ... what was the 'Carolina' bit? If it was part of the opening laugh fest then I'm sure it was fine. It beats the ever-loving shit out of very.important.radio.

Rongey has Goff's disease. He breaks up into uncontrolled laughter over shit that just isn't funny. Or it might be a little funny, but not something you should laugh about for 60 seconds.

All SCORE people are weird.

But their diseases are a little different. Goff laughs a lot. But in quick bursts. The duration of Rongey's laughing is much longer than Goff's.

this has been discussed before, but when Chris cuts up, it sounds genuine. Unlike when Jason laughs, which sounds like verbal filler. As well as Spiegs.

I mean, they laughed at her like they do at, say, George or Rongey or anyone that screws up an update read ... not like "I hope she dies in a fire" like they might Murph, but they weren't holding back on her either ... Dan was of the strong opinion that it'd be a finalist come December.

It was idiotic. Like most liberals, Bernstein detests white Southerners, who he seems to think are all stupid hicks with secret homosexual urges.

Nope. I'm the only sane one. Both on the air and on this board.

Oh it's genuine for Rongey. It's just insane. With Goff, he has two laughs. His "Crack up" laugh is genuine. Also insane, though. Like a mad man laughing at the rain. But he has another laugh. I call it the "Pimp Laugh". Like when he talks about banging bitches, drugs, clubs, drinking, awesome times at the crib, or does innuendo. That laugh is fake.

I lasted about 5 minutes into WYC when it became clear that nearly everything would be about the RNC. I can only imagine how excited Dan got when he received the e-crap referencing Jared Diamond.

One time dumb ass drinky was making fart noises during Rongey's updates. Stupid for a 40 year old. But that's our fuckin' drinky.

Anyway, it caused Rongey to go into a laughing fit for like 2 minutes. I mean he's around 40 as well. I'm dead serious. Ranger is in an uncontrolled laughing fit cuz some jack ass is making fart noises. That amazes me. It really does. This behavior is only accepted if you're 5 years old. For both of them.

Like I said, these SCORE people are dumb asses and weirdos.

You know, Rongey may actually be the best fill in for Boers they have. The show is actually fun and upbeat which is the role that Terry provides. Rongey still needs to fix some of his quirks but I think I'd choose him over any of the other guys so far. Goff was good too.

I don't see myself listening to Rozner or Doyle for very long.

I should append this to my post in the B&B show thread yesterday. Minus the Goff part.

I thought it was funny that they had some guy from baseball prospectus on and he ended his talk about the White Sox with something like "Well, I don't care what the White Sox do" or something like that. Looks like he is a writer for the baseball prospectus Cubbie Chubby site.

I guess it is only about the "numbers" until it isn't.

It was Isaac Bennett and the exact quote is "I also really don't care what happens with the White Sox so let's just be honest".

Dan and Rongey just laughed and ended the interview(which was ending anyways).
