Len Kasper BP Chat 6/3

[UMFan83]

Carl (Dayton, OH): Lounge love to Len. Do you see any logical reason for the heavy home/road splits for the Cubs? It seems in years past the Cubs used playing day games at Wrigley as an excuse as to why they weren't winning. Now, playing there seems to send them into overdrive. Your thoughts on that?

 

Len Kasper: No clue. You guys are the brains here...any thoughts?

 

Hmmm... :-k

He didn't really answer my question :evil:

[Rob]

You damn dirty loungers.

seems Len wasn't a fan of Meph...

 

Len Kasper: Thanks for having me along today. Bob and I are having a blast on the air this year. As you can tell if you watch us, Bob is amazing...hip, funny, analytical, laid back. I'm very, very fortunate to be able to sit with him and call games for the best fans on the planet. I'm not into advice-giving, but here goes: keep asking questions...and when you draw your conclusions, leave yourself some room in case somebody comes up with something either better or something that you can add to the mix. I love checking out the blogs, but I get a little disheartened at all the stubborn vitriol that I read (not here, but just about everywhere else I go on the internet). I know some of this gets emotionally-charged because we're all fans at heart, but I think if we all just try to keep an open mind, it will lead to less...for lack of a better term, meanness. Hope that makes sense. I think if we all were required to attach our real name to our internet comments, the discourse would be more civil. Anonymity can breed some pretty vicious stuff. OK, off my soapbox...talk to you soon!

I think he's spot on in that paragraph... not that it'll make any difference.

To be fair, I spoon fed him questions I knew he'd want to answer.
