I play softball all da time dinged up!"

Many that is true, but an incomplete statement.

So this morning during his Thusday conversation with Mike DeCourcy, in talking about Kansas, North says 'dat kansas team has like five, six seniors on it'. DeCourcy says, 'yeah, but really only one or two contribute much'. North says 'well you don't have to play to be a leader'.

Really? Not that I disagree with that, but during the Paxson interrogation 10 days ago, Paxson declared that the players who had lobbied for a longer suspention for Noah were Ben Wallace and Adrian Griffin. Paxson went on to call them veteran leaders on the team, and for that their opinion was respected. North questioned how Griffin can be a leader when he doesn't even play. And Wallace is not a leader because the Bulls payed him too much money and now he's not performing.

I have come to the conclusion that nobody is this stupid, and he clearly talks without thinking.

Maybe switch to WLIT or WBBM or something.
Give up on North. Screw it, there is always something more entertaining on.
