We've seen his exposed chest. That's enough for me.

We can safely say that the bike shorts/banana hammock shots leave far too little to the imagination as well

heard him on 'inside the clubhouse' today - didn't tell me one thing about the cubs, but told us about the merchandise he's hawking. eeewwww..bob costas is now on baseball voices. great. here's my credit card number....

awhile ago - irritated me when he talked about broadcasting san jose NASL matches in the 70's, despite hating the sport of soccer. telling us that 0-0, 1-0 matches are boring, but he'll spend 2 hours explaining that you don't know baseball if you can't appreciate a 1-0 baseball score.

him and kasper...decent play-by-play, stick to it. they don't tell us anything when they are interviewed (kasper is in fact an apologist/excuse-maker). yeah, don't bite the hand that feeds you.

Yeeaaahh....I used to really enjoy Pat.

I just don’t anymore. He deserves the Frick award and eventually he’ll get it

The hawking he does is annoying but that’s more on me than him. Hell stack your money dude. But for some reason it’s just annoying how absolutely mandatory it is that he has to do it. Every. Fucking. Time.

But, that delirious 10 year old call in a once in a century moment is a true gaffe.

yeah, i hear you. i don't blame pat for: "former all-star ron coomer, don't you think that addison russell has all the attributes to be a future NL MVP"???

never liked the guy. never saw why people thought he was so great. always boring to listen to. maybe having santo w/ him so many years made him likable to cub fans but seems more like santo's popularity rubbing off on hughes.

in the last 5/6 years he's terrible to listen to on the radio. so lazy. never tells the listener the score or inning. the most basic things for a radio broadcaster to do in and out of innings.

he's mailed it in. and he got Grote fired so karma will bite him on his ass.

Ford Frick award? hahaha what a joke. So many others deserving of the award like Kuiper and Krukow and Stoney before Hughes.

All I said is he’ll get it.

You’re overly hard on the dude but whatever

i dont like guys who get other guys who do their job fired just because they didnt kiss enough ass.

Do you have any proof of this? Like even a shred of anything that resembles proof?

Because Grote has addressed this like multiple times and while I wouldn’t expect him to completely break bad on Hughes if it were true, you know how Grote is...he would give a sometime clue that there was truth to it if he believed so.

Grote said they always sat next to each other on the plane for road trips?

You think Hughes is Machiavelli or what?

He's not exactly a regular dude. Quite an oddball actually. But his PBP is fine.

Sometimes I get it in my mind that his smooth, ultra polite and refined exterior for something else.

Like he’s into hardcore bondage and throat fucks young prostitutes and pats them for their services in heroin

Gary Oldman should play him in the movie of his double life.

Hey Hey!!!

Nicely done!

Beardown is the supplier of this information. Ask him/her.

Crane Kenney replaced Grote.

no it was ZZ. only IF Grote had laughed out loud at Hughes lame jokes like ZZ does maybe he would still be there.

absolute worst World Series winning call. I was looking forward to listening to what Pat had to say on it once posted, and then...ugh

ya you could tell he rehearsed it w/ the 'jumping like 10 year olds' shit line. didnt come out natural at all. no excitement in his voice either. just that boring drone voice of his.

Can't tell if this is a bit.

Let me put it another way...Crane Kenney fired Grote.

ya i know he officially fired him but it was Hughes who got him fired. there was a big thread on here when it happened. look for one of Beardown's posts.

But what was the large Beardown thread based on?

Your desire to believe this hook, line and sinker is odd.

You don’t care for Hughes’ PBP which is fine. Who the fuck cares anyway.

But do you recognize your just choosing to believe a rumor because you like it’s flavor?

Beardown also has a girl chained to a furniture in his basement, so I'm not sure if he's a reliable guy.

no it's true. the way it went down happens in every line of business. old fart boss doesnt' like younger more hip employee. views him as a threat. youngster doesn't kiss bosses ass like 'he should' out of respect.

Ok. Last thing I’ll say.

1. Your first sentence can’t be used to defend your premise that the rumor is true because that’s called circular logic.

2. All the rest is some odd projection of your own personal frustrations.

3. Grote ain’t fucking “hip.” But I am a fan.

Hughes is a made guy, watch your mouth

Soccer sucks though

maybe, maybe not. i enjoy it.

the point is he took money broadcasting the sport in the 70's - couldn't wait to tell us how boring it is, once he hit the big-time with baseball. he hit the big-time and now he's hawking his business venture when he's a guest on a baseball talk show. didn't tell me one thing about the cubs.
