Aye man, sorry I have not been able to keep up as much as I wanted to. Started a new career shortly after you kind of did with barstool. Unfortunately, that combined with a special needs son, makes my free time limited. I do read here and there but I have not been able to consistently keep up like I was. Think things are settling down. I am a licensed insurance agent now, so if you ever thought about mortgage protection, retirement benefits, indexed universal life (which pays out when you are living) or really anything, I got you. lol.
I was against ABS at first, just as I was with the pitch clock (still not a 100% fan) but, after seeing it in action, I do think it will get abused at first, with catchers and players challenging probably every pitch they think is not a strike but, I agree it will expose some awful umps, while affirming the consistent umps. I forget who but some dude was like 99% accurate or something. It is something that, I hope does not affect the game majorly. Imagine, World Series, strike 3 but wait, challenged ball 4. A part of me thinks that will be awesome and another part cringes and idk why.
Also, my expectations are quite low this year unfortunately. Lackluster offseason moves and bregman does not look good in cubs blue. I hope our younger stars continue to improve but another postseasons? I am not sure about that.
Also, as a niners fan, fuck the patriots. The feeling of watching a hated rival, win the Superbowl in MY HOME STADIUM, sucks my soul out. Thank goodness I do not actually live in the bay area, my life would not have been good after that but, defense wins championships. Let's hope Maye doesn't have the career of Dan Marino, Superbowl in 2nd season, HOF career without another appearance. I think New England takes rings over HOF but I am just a humble niners fan watching our old backups dominant and win rings.
FML.
Good looks, I hope things are doing well for you and the fam.
JL - Never apologize, man, love, when you can check in! I think the Sox will be okay, but more a Wild Card than AL East winners. Need more pop. Thanks for reading my man.
On WEEI I think Kirk is right, as usual, that to beat The Hub any show would be smart to mock the show they’re up against. None of the names you dropped are going to get me to tune in. Ted Johnson is not good on the radio, I know that he has football credentials but he’s a bore. It’s not good radio. If they could get him to play the bad guy maybe but that’s hard to maintain. WEEI isn’t going to win with the guys you talked about. They need a name with personality plus. If they want to win back up the Brinks truck to Kirk’s house, make nice with him and give him free rein to do his thing. Then you might win.

Yeah, he made a great point. Those guys don't want to risk pissing off NBC. It's a lose-lose for everyone - including the listener.
Great debut for The Ice People. Although I do question the Monica Seles guess on celebrity mash up.
Bad Mashup, music, current trends guy, David
