Totally Unlistenable

Since this has turned into the default FUCK STEVE STONE thread

"And Steve Stone? He's got enough problems doing what he does with the White Sox. What job has he had in baseball besides talking on television or radio? What has he done?

"Why isn't he a farm director and bring some kids around? Why isn't he a general manager, and put the uniform on and been a pitching coach? Why hasn't he been a field manager. There's 30 teams out there that could use a guy's expertise like that. I'm tired of some of these guys, I really am. Now that's it. Let's go to baseball."

Sure Stone may be right about getting Tyler some more playing time, but that's beside the point. Fuck Steve Stone. I love that Lou ripped on him.

Stone:

"It was an observance and when you need to have a front-office job to make an observance about baseball, there's going to be nobody working in baseball. None of you media guys are going to be working in baseball because then you can't say anything because you've never been in the front office. That might be one of the dumber things he's said."

Now, I don't know this for sure, but I believe some of you in the past have eluded to the fact that Stone has tried to get a front office job... and no one will fucking hire him.

I do think this was discussed at one point, but the thread is alluding me.

Probably died in the 5/9/10 purge

I say avoison.

Things that shocked Ron Santo today: (1) Andruw Jones is a member of the White Sox, (2) Gordon Beckham is playing 2B this year.

[Lance Dicksons Arm]

This is one asshole arguing with another.  I would be fine if they both went away at this point.

[Wheezer]

"Cedric the Entertainer"? What the fuck is going on? Gene Gene the Dancing Machine makes more sense.

[Saul Goodman]

I hate listening to Pete McCarthy nasally blab over MLB.com highlights.  His first two sentences here are a perfect example.

Ron's sighing and geezing is at an extremely high level today. He continues to suck at a level previously achieved only by Ryan Theriot.

True story.  I tuned in to Saturday's game--the first game in which I followed in at least 10 weeks.  After Soto dropped the game away, my disgust was soothed by the balm that is Santo's whining.  My spirits were actually picked up when I heard his woe-is-us bullshit.  It reminded me that the price I would have to pay if the Cubs suddenly got hot and back into the race would be this insufferbale asshole leading the premature celebration parade until my ears and blood pressure were shot.

Yes, I am petty man.

Ron's whining is more annoying now that the team is shitty and the games are meaningless. At least he has a reason to be emotional when they're contending. I don't understand why he lets this group of gutless assholes get to him so much.

I listened to a game the other day on my ride home from work.  I have the MLB App on my iPhone, so it's actually pretty fantastic to listen to some games through my car's speakers.  Anyway, Ron was so terrible that I actually had to turn to the other team's broadcast.  It's a shame, too, because I really like the way Pat Hughes calls the game.  I just hate that he's always interrupted by Ron every two seconds with some nonsensical old man beetus noise.

[Yeti]

You guys are all IDITOS. Santo makes the games fun. He is a TRUE Cub fan.

I learned during Wednesday's game that Ron's cat has diabetes. As far as I could tell, the cat still has all four limbs, however.

But he did name the cat Cigarette, just in case he has to take it out for a drag.

I thought that pussy's name was Casey?

Moreland doesn't have the pipes for this gig. It's like sitting down to a meal of meringue.
