That only sent him up to talk about how great Julio Lugo has been playing.<BR/><BR/>I know the guy's from New England and grew up a Red Sox fan, but it's our home telecast. I'm not asking for DJ and the Hawk on WGN, but at least know more (or look like you know more) about the home team than the visitors.<BR/><BR/>Red Sox fans beware - I’ll be there tomorrow for the El Diablo Show, as well as going down Saturday in a party suite that the DiaBride and I got for us and 16 of our closest friends to celebrate our 30th birthdays.Paul Cousineauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03490622970961409253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11805401.post-87198476598125071262007-07-24T11:21:00.000-04:002007-07-24T11:21:00.000-04:00i agree about last night, i couldn't believe i was...i agree about last night, i couldn't believe i was hearing sox chants. lots of sox lids in the crowd too. unfortunately, half those sox hats will turn to tribe hats if they may make the playoffs and play LA....damn fair-weather fans...frustrating to see.<BR/><BR/>did the constant talk about Lester drive anyone else nuts? i mean, no discredit to him, but lets talk about baseball and the game. at one point they discussed how he needed to get the lymphoma out of his head. um, do they really think he sat there with the bases loaded thinking about his lymphoma? my guess is he was probably thinking something along the lines of "i need to sack up and get grady out so he doesn't take me yard again and ruin my first outing this year. unfortunately he's sitting on my fastball and i can't throw my curve for strike"<BR/><BR/>his comeback is good to see, but talk about that on sportscenter and the espys...don't interrupt my baseball game with 9 innings of talk about it. i finally switched to hamilton's radio broadcast.<BR/><BR/>and do we need to hear from kruk on everything? do we need him to weigh in on how "athletes" are better equipped to deal with things like cancer b/c they get hurt frequently? chances are very high that fat slob will again be sticken by some health issue due to his extra 50 lbs he's carrying. sorry, i can't stand him...Cy Slapnickahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10109399114263980881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11805401.post-10969550806006262762007-07-24T10:21:00.000-04:002007-07-24T10:21:00.000-04:00I'd hesitate to trade Lee because of this season, ...I'd hesitate to trade Lee because of this season, but at the same time the rotation is suddenly looking questionable.
