5/27 Braves (Ramirez) vs. Cubs (Marshall) 12:20PM (FOX, 720)

[da bears]

Nicely done by Fox for pulling a WGN and showing a lot of hotties.

 

I think that's all WGN should do from now on. Len and Bob can still announce the game so we know what's going on, but we won't be forced to watch the team.

 

Haha, I couldnt agree more. At least they'd be showing something good in relation to the Cubs.

From yesterday's BP chat:

 

"You're missing the worst part of the Womack signing, which is that there's about a 50% chance that he hits .301/.302/.302 on the rest of the year and becomes their long term "answer" at second base."
