TOPIC 1: WHAT DO YOU IMAGINE THE AVERAGE DIAMONDBACKS FAN IS LIKE?
Probably a lot like the average ceiling fan.
Still wearing their Randy Johnson mullets.
Long-haired, pantless and covered with sunscreen. Basically, I’m picturing Britney Spears.
They have fans?
Men reeking of Axe Body Spray talking about the big play they made on the JV football team.
TOPIC 2: WHAT’S YOUR PREDICTION FOR GAME 2?
Whatever happens, cable-less Cubs fans will be at the bar.
Look for Mark Prior to launch a sniper attack from his permanent roost in nearby Mesa.
I like the Cubs to surprise everyone and start Ernie Banks at short.
It’ll be a lot like Game 1, except with different starting pitchers.
A life-changing decision for “Grey’s Anatomy” fans.
TOPIC 3: WHAT IS DUSTY BAKER DOING RIGHT NOW?
Relishing in the fact he has cable?
Making the same number of game adjustments he would make if he were still manager.
Getting ready to give “Baseball Tonight” viewers absolutely no insight into the playoffs.
Hanging out with Neifi Perez.
Growing a Ron Burgundy beard and regretting milk and his choices with the Cubs.
TOPIC 4: DO THE CUBS DESERVE MORE HYPE THAN OTHER PLAYOFF TEAMS?
Sure. That’s why they installed all those extra seats on the bandwagon.
The Cubs should NEVER be favored. We just can’t handle it.
Honestly, between New York, Boston, Philly and Chicago, the planet might implode.
No, just more wins.
If hype = runs on the scoreboard, then yes.
TOPIC 5: THE FALCONS WANT MICHAEL VICK’S BONUS MONEY. WHO ELSE SHOULD GIVE MONEY BACK?
ABC. For taunting me with their “Cavemen” sitcom.
Jim just saw Hanna Montana in concert. “Not her best work,” he tells me.
Lloyd Carr. And, I’m guessing, a decent amount of his players.
The Bears offense.
Notre Dame to season ticket-holders and home viewers.
