I'm fairly confident that will be asked i sure hope so but unfortunately whoever asks it will say "lou, why miles in the 8th?" and accept his answer and leave it at that rather than asking a "tough question". know what i mean? you don't seem to understand how press conferences work. you don't ask the manager a question and then get into a shouting match because you disagree with him. who said anything about a shouting match? for once, i would just like to see a chicago reporter actually ask a tough question and have lou answer it. i get that they wanna remain on lou's good side for access rights and all that jazz, but still... beat your competition by asking tough questions. your columns will be more popular by doing so. i look forward to reading your future articles, mr. journalism.
