He just wants you to know they're close friends.

I hate Wilbon, period.

Did you know he’s from Chicago?

I hate how all of the media guys call the Cubs guys by their first name.

Bernstein: Theo knows what he's doing. He's REALLY REALLY SMART.

Kap: Joe wants to get the boys up by bringing a clown in the clubhouse.

It's small town and they behave like they're friends with these guys. Either call them by both of their names or use the last name. You ever hear media guys calling Mike Ditka "Mike" back in the day? It was always Ditka or Mike Ditka.

It just shows what a weak sports media town we have. They're all just "fan boys" in the end.

I hate sports folk calling players’ jobs a craft. “He really works at his craft.” No he works on his technique. Crafts involve glue, balsa wood, and paint.

Can't stand the way Jackie Swike pronounces her last name, it's as if she's out of breath by the time she gets to saying it. Sort of like Jurko when he speaks - by the time he gets to the end of his sentence he's running on fumes.

As for Jim Talamonti, the traffic person on 560, I have to quickly turn the station because listening to him pronounce certain words like "Montrose" is painful. He was born in Chicago but has some kind of goofy accent - so annoying.

"Trotting out." This is a popular phrase used by Score guys to demean some relatively average players. I think they say it to confer some sort of special knowledge or expertise regarding the sport they're talking but I think it's makes them sound like unimaginative, small-time, wannabe sports broadcasters. One could easily say The Score "trots out" various producers and show hosts on a daily basis.

This was a good idea for a thread!

I know EXACTLY what you're saying, and you are wrong - that's a HOT attribute (not that SHE is - she isn't).

I used think the same way until I saw folks hit balls in a cage with a Rapsodo machine. Then you realize how important launch angle, exit velo, and backspin are to hitting the a long way.

I hate it when on-field or in-stand interviews go on and on with an interview subject that is clearly uninterested and uninspiring.

Watching the MLB Network national game, and on the NESN feed they threw it down to an interview in the stands with Braves pitcher Sean Newcomb's father, asking him what it was like to see his son pitching in Fenway, etc.

Well they must have decided to do the interview in the bottom of the inning, for some reason, and Newcomb's father just wasn't engaging at all BECAUSE HIS SON WAS ON THE MOUND. The moron conducting the interview didn't get the hint and asked at least three questions too many, making for an excruciating couple of minutes.

Don't be afraid to stop bad interviews.

Pretty much all Cubs beat reporters. None of them have the guts to call some one out for play or moves.

ZZ was the same way with the Bears.

Dickerson & Biggs are not perfect, but they will at least call out poor play when they see it.

Softball-type leading questions that invariably result in the interviewee saying "probably a little of both."

Bigsy, we know it's a copycat league. And, uh, we look at, uh, what's going on with these two teams in the Super Bowl. And I know you've broken down this game and looked at it from a lot of directions. You see a power running back from each team. You see, uh, you know, a quarterback that is effective on each, each team. You don't really see the wide receivers from either team. You don't see anybody that's a big draft pick. Obviously you've got Gronk, who is a great weapon in the passing game. But, uh, you know, again, you see great defenses. You see great secondaries. You see great corners on both these teams. Certainly Darrelle Revis is a great corner. Uh, you know, Brandon Browner is the most penalized player in the league. Obviously you look at Seattle, and they got a lotta pre-snap penalties with Michael Bennett. He's gonna, he's gonna try and anticipate snap count and jump offsides once or twice in a game. What, what, what is the, uh, formula that the Bears can adapt, or what can they look at and say "we gotta have that in order to be in the Super Bowl"?

Yeah. I saw he started that thread, and it reminded me of how god awful the real Mully is on the air. The Cubs beat guys annoy me, but nothing is worse than his questioning of a guest.

Last year he said his son couldn't decide if LeBron, Curry, or Durant was his favorite player because he's met them all and that makes it hard to decide. :roll:

I wonder if his kid says things like that at school?
