This show is for meatballs. I have watched it the last 2 days, and yesterday their poll question was should the Cubs release Z. Today their question was should Pods be an all-star? These are 2 ridiculous question. Then of course you get 3 dopes from the Trib sitting their, including the fat ass editor of the sports section.

The host is David Kaplan, so that should tell you enough right there.

When Mac was down the dial at ESPN Radio 1000, he jokingly referred to "Chicago Tribune Live" as "The Joker's Wild", not to be confused with the classic game show created, executive produced and hosted by the late Jack Barry in the late '70s & '80s. I think he called it that because the Trib sportswriters & columnists had no personality, and that was before David Kaplan replaced Dan Jiggetts as host. While the set is an improvement, it doesn't mean you want to hear Phil Rogers' meatball reasons for the Cubs to part company with Carlos Zambrano, let alone see Sam Smith appear as if he's ready to shoot 18 holes at Kemper Lakes rather than talk about a Bulls' trade that'll never happen.

I sometimes catch this show. It's weird looking people with weird thoughts. Our media is very stupid and our writers are worse when they get on TV.

Did anybody see the "Chicago Tribune Live" episode in which Laurence Holmes looked like an extra from the movie "Celtic Pride"?

David Kaplan is like the gathering the opinions of every idiot caller in the Score's history and putting them together to form the SuperMeatball. For some reason when I catch the reruns at night due to insomnia he makes me hate sports.
