Thom Brennaman is an intolerant asshole
17 Seconds replied to UMFan83's topic in General Baseball Talk
how can i be racist? i live in puerto rico. -
i hope there's a strike and a long stoppage
-
for once in my life, I dont feel much like cubbing
-
i believe it was homophobic At the risk of coming off sus, as the cool kids say these days, I've known him for most of my life and that'd be way out of character for him, so I'm going to say it's neither of those. ....aside from the typo in his first post, of course. you must be thinking of someone else. rawdog flipped out and went on a rant that was definitely either racist or homophobic. i'm 99% sure it was homophobic. edit: maybe i'm thinking of sontensei too
-
Out of curiosity, why does he keep getting banned? Didn't one of his last rants start to go into racist rhetoric or something? Might be mixing him up with something else i believe it was homophobic

what if len is actually alt-right
-
len: if you're reading this, make some kind of power pop reference on twitter and we'll know you love us
-
Len is a lounge guy nsbb has a lounge?
-
It won't be until Len is on what he assumes to be his final broadcasting job that he'll relent and admit working for the Ricketts made him physically ill. And it only took him 9 years to come to that realization. none of us knew the depths of the ricketts depravity 9 years ago
-
come on len, acknowledge us
-
i wonder if len has read this thread
-
regardless of what is said, i will always believe that the nastiness of the cubs organization was at least in part responsible for len leaving, and i will always respect the hell out of him for it
-
this is a ridiculous comparison. i don't care for pat hughes but his status is on a completely different level. i'm pretty sure tt was making a joke at andy masur's expense oh, i didn't even know who that was
-
you think len would have watched them fire pat and then taken his job? He was okay with doing it to Andy Masur, so there's clearly a line that can be crossed even if he may not have done it for Pat. this is a ridiculous comparison. i don't care for pat hughes but his status is on a completely different level.
-
More popular among a certain subset of Cubs fans, sure. If by "subset", you mean "majority", sure. I find it hard to believe that they'd let a more popular broadcaster who wanted to do radio leave rather than just fire the less popular radio guy and replace him with Len. you think len would have watched them fire pat and then taken his job?
-
maybe he'll come back when pat dies
-
that ain't him
-
when brett stops shilling, you know it's bad

pls respond I did respond saying I'd be interested. This was before Len left, though. I hate what this team has become. I hate that I spent my whole life wanting to be a season ticket holder and now that I live within walking distance to Wrigley and have the opportunity the team is owned by a bunch of fascists dickheads that make me question my loyalty. i was trying to make a joke about the cubs being desperate and begging people to buy tickets
-
from what i understand, sharma reported him as being the favorite, but i think gordo reported that it will be him. there's been no official announcement yet, though. cubs twitter universally hates him as the pick (and not even necessarily because of politics), so maybe if that noise gets loud enough they'll listen and hire someone else? just kidding
-
is chris myers confirmed?
-
pls respond
-
this really hurts. i cant believe they botched the organization this badly.
-
this is dumb as horsefeathers why the hell is he obligated to put up with dumb horsefeathers he doesn't like at work if he doesn't have to? that makes him a child? FOH and i'm pretty sure he never complained about the suits publicly (and even sorta did the opposite). if he had a problem with it, he has every right to look elsewhere and it's none of your damn business why he was or wasn't happy with his work environment. I mean, it’s not anyone on this board’s business who the Cubs employ, hire, or fire, but yes, Len disrupting his career trajectory (and likely income!) over sharing airtime or his employer’s dress code would be immature and childish. The dude seems like a great guy and he can do whatever he want: I hope that he’s happy! But if that was the reason he probably wasn’t in it for the long haul anyway. you just askin questions?
