Every time I think I have it bad ...

[GlassCow]

I think about Ronny and Pat in the booth. It must really suck calling the crap that has been spewing forth from this idiot team.

Only Ernie Banks would feel like playing two on a day like today. God, I love his positive attitude. I envy anyone that can stay positive in the face of the worst season in history.

Don't neglect Len and Bob.

Don't neglect Len and Bob.

 

Yes, but neither of them feel physical pain like Ronny does when the team blows.

And Pat has to put up with him.

Are you kidding? They just do what we're doing for money.

If I had their job, I would wake up every morning on a sidewalk bench outside of a bar with a bottle in my hand. I would be like Bob Euker in Major League, I would need to have a heavy blood-alcohol level to get through each game.

No kidding... I agree Goony. At least getting some money for it justifies the reason for putting up with it. The rest of us are fools enough to do it for free and come back year after year! Ha ha...

none of us are contractually obligated to watch every day, every game, every inning. I personally don't think I could do it. it just hurts too damn much.

I won't lie -- I have a Cubs-induced headache right now.

For their paychecks, I could live with it. I'd just have lots of little funny stories pre-prepared for each game.

[VicCub]

Feel sorry for Pat and Ron? How about guys like Jack Brickhouse who put up with this stuff for 50 years!

you and Rick Sutcliffe....

[soapy]

The only way I'd be able to broadcast a Cubs game is if it was on HBO, Showtime, or the like. My language would have me fired before the end of the 2nd innning.

 

Having said that, I don't know if I feel sorry for them or not. Sometimes I feel bad for guys like Ernie Banks and Ron Santo, I guess. It's really a crime that they not only never won a WS for themselves, but have never even seen the Cubs play in one. Guys like Ernie and Ron deserve much better. I really don't understand how they can maintain such a positive attitude.

 

Of course, so do we.
