Half century in sports media including WSCR, WBBM, WGN, NPR... Book on podcast (Tell me a story I don't know) http://bit.ly/3t50qN1 2nd chapter at @midtown_Chi
To quote Howard Cosell: It’s over, it’s all over! The final podcast features yours truly conducted by the man behind the scenes @bucsidelineguy. Enjoy rebrand.ly/y7rxkme. spoti.fi/3NVSJAj @whatczel @bassonair. And another plug for my book bit.ly/3t50qN1.
Cubs fans… would you be willing to trade Ian Happ straight up for Dylan Cease?
He loved life, and many with whom he shared it. Harry was authentic, kind, unassuming. We battled. And we loved, these last few years particularly. No show ever filled the gym like ours did. None before, none since. Sky point @HeyTweetHarry . #ClosingTime #PullUpAChair
Despite a torrid start is Miguel Vargas is showing signs why the Dodgers let him go? He's hitting 185 with just 3 homers and 10 RBI since the beginning of June! Good guy whom the Sox must be wondering if he's simply regressing to the mean.
Lee Elia was a real gentleman who will go down in history for providing us with one of the truly great rants of all time and helped propel Les Grobsteon who was the only person to record that rant.

Told the Cubs have their eyes on Lucas Giolito, but thus far it there is no indication the Red Sox are ready to make any more significant trades. He’s 5-1 with a 3.66 ERA
Told among the starting pitchers the Cubs are very enamored of, Arizona’s Merrill Kelly.
Congrats to Duncan keith for making the Hockey Hall of Fame. He was drafted by the very unappreciated Mike Smith who also drafted…Brent Seabrook, Corey Crawford, Dustin Byfuglien, Adam Burish and traded for Patrick Sharp!
I really like Jim Deshaies but can he please stop questioning every single call the home plate umpire makes? it’s very egregious!
All I’m hearing on talk-radio & social media is the Cubs need a top line starter. Agreed. What I’m not hearing is what it will cost and remember, competition will be stiff so, what would you offer for an ace, #2 or 3 starter?
Just a reminder...Father’s day is approaching so here’s the perfect gift! And get it for yourself, too! Here's the link to purchase. bit.ly/45e3xmJ

In deference to the late Bob Uecker, I’m actually in the 2nd row!

A look back 48 years ago when yours truly and @MikeReisSIU called the CWS. Yes, that's me with the late and great Ricard "Itchy" Jones.
This should be a headline : MOST PREDICTABLE!
News from #Rays AAA @DurhamBulls team: DH/OF Eloy Jimenez is on the 7-day IL due to right achilles tendinitis, timeline for return TBD
The Leafs are out of the playoffs again. Is Mitch Marner out, too? Stay tuned Hawks fans. This exceptional free agent talent could very likely be in play.
