TODAY’S QUESTIONS
TOPIC 1: If the Bears shut out the Detroit Lions, what will you do for your customers?
Jimmy Greenfield: Lunch. Monday. Al’s Beef.
First 10 readers who e-mail me. jgreenfield@tribune.com.
Phillip Thompson: I will refund all the money they paid for this paper.
Leo Ebersole: I’ll walk your pet for free, but I reserve the right to take it through Bag Boy’s lawn.
Mike North: Something that’s really a stretch for me–good radio!
Bag Boy: I shall spearhead the largest, fully clothed group hug this city has ever seen.
TOPIC 2: With Dave Cowens off to Detroit, nominate a new coach for the Chicago Sky.
Jimmy Greenfield: Moon Unit Zappa. I don’t know, call it a hunch, but I think she can win more than three games.
Phillip Thompson: Ellen DeGeneres would find a way to motivate them.
Leo Ebersole: I’d like to see Kobe Bryant take over. Has the WNBA ever had a player-coach?
Mike North: How about Doug Bruno from DePaul? No joke.
Bag Boy: Michael Jordan, to boost attendance. And Dave, you leave for Detroit? You disgust me.
TOPIC 3: In hindsight, do you wish the Sox still had Frank Thomas?
Jimmy Greenfield: I don’t look back on decisions I’ve made. Moon Unit Zappa? Where the hell did that come from?
Phillip Thompson: In foresight, I wish they’d get the new Big Hurt, Ryan Howard.
Leo Ebersole: Thome’s numbers are slightly better, and my last name isn’t Hendry, so, no.
Mike North: No, because he was a pain in the hindsight.
Bag Boy: I don’t wish we had him, I do wish we had his current team’s first-place status.
TOPIC 4: Help a sleepy Sox fan staying up for late West Coast games get through the next day.
Jimmy Greenfield: Get Phil to pinch your butt whenever you nod off. Don’t worry, he’ll do it for free.
Phillip Thompson: Give them a feistiness serum by milking RedEye’s Brian Moore for his venom.
Leo Ebersole: When all else fails: A little caffeine and NFL Network’s replay of the Bears game.
Mike North: If they win, lack of sleep is no problem. If they lose, I’m too mad to sleep.
Bag Boy: Look, no sleeping for the next three weeks. We want you on that wall; we need you on that wall.
TOPIC 5: Justin Timberlake’s bringing sexy back. What are you bringing back?
Jimmy Greenfield: Bernadette Peters, circa 1976.
Phillip Thompson: Thanks to all the ‘roids, I’m bringing backne back.
Leo Ebersole: If I hear that song one more time? My lunch.
Mike North: Tap water. No more bottled water.
Bag Boy: Funky NFL Zubaz pants. You’re booing me? There’s no booing here.
