For those of you reading this thread, I'm going to say this right now. Don't say I didn't warn you ahead of time.

Anyway, with regular pregame host Hub Arkush on assignment Sunday night to work the "Sunday Night Football" game for Westwood One between the San Diego Chargers & Indianapolis Colts from Lucas Oil Stadium, guess who's sitting in alongside "Stuttering" Dan Hampton Sunday afternoon before the big Bears' showdown with the Philadelphia Eagles come 12Noon on 670 The SCORE & 670thescore.com? That's right, folks. It's Laurence Holmes, who will be back from calling more DePaul basketball misery at the "76 Classic" in Anaheim. (Insert screaming sounds & terrifying music here.)

Laurence & Dan are reuniting this Sunday, and will be broadcasting the SCORE's Bears' pregame show from Flatlander's Restaurant in Lincolnshire, some 3 hours, 15 minutes before the Eagles/Bears' game at Soldier Field. Consider yourselves warned.

WSCR will pick up the national radio broadcast of the Chargers/Colts' "SNF" game, which Hub will be on the sidelines of the game described by Dave Sims & Hall of Fame WR James Lofton, in progress Sunday night around 8:30p or so following Doug Buffone & Ed O'Bradovich's very popular Bears' postgame from Real Time Sports in Elk Grove Village around 6:30p or so.

Who needs Hampton?

Prediction on how the Hamp & Holmes reunion show starts:

Larry: Hi, Hamp. It's really, really, really good to see you again. You look good, old partner. How's my really, really, really good friend doing today?

Hamp: I'm fine. Good to see you again, Wi..Wi...Wi...Willie.

Larry: It's Laurence.

Larry oozes so much more toughness than Hamp in that pic...

Thanks for the warning. Ill be listening to Christmas carols then

Hamp: It's good to finally work with you, Larry. Heard good things about you.

Larry: Hamp, we did a show for 8 months!! Mitch had to cancel it cuz listeners were commiting suicide. Don't you remember?!

Hamp: I have no recollection. Larry, it's like my mom used to say: A pig doesn't need a memory cuz he's gonna be slaughtered in a year. Mom's point was you should just focus on moment, life is too short.

Larry: Good point, Hamp!!! You're the best!!!!

Too late in the year to hope a lightning storm takes out the signal?

Larry: Ok Hamp, Bears-Eagles today. Let's get into the Michael Vick situation. Do you think there is a portion of people that hate Vick because he's black and just use the "killing dogs" thing as a front to unleash their racist hate against him?

Hamp: Larry, back in my day racism was an accepted part of life. Unfortunately, times have changed.

Larry: What?

Hamp: Bottom line Larry, the Bears need to hit Vick like KATRINA!!!! They need to leave Vick screaming for help like those poor black people on top of the roof tops.

Larry: Ha ha ha ha. That's funny. (Larry makes a note to scream about Hampton's comments once Hamp is no longer with the Score). You're the best, Hamp!!! Nobody says it like you do. It's really, really, really great working with you again. Let's take some calls.

The funny thing is, Hamp doesn't stumble & stammer on TV. He is much more confident & coherent on TV.
