Does Ranger have a shot? You know he's gonna apply for it.

I'll say no for Ranger. You normally have to pay your dues before you get a big TV job in a big market. Ranger has only filled in on the radio a few times. He just needs to get some experience. Maybe do minor league play by play.

Dave Wills would come back home to do 81 games I'm sure.

I would love Wills. I don't get the feeling Sox management liked him

I thought Swirsky was pretty good.

Herbert Perry

Winner of the 50/50 raffle from the game before.

Can't be him. Bulls and Sox both play in April, May and June. Unless he wants to quit the baskeball. But I always thought basketball was Chuck's first love.

Here's what they might do. Ranger goes to WLS for pre and post. Ranger does play by play for the home games as well. With Farmer going to TV for the home games only.

I wouldn't like it. But Farmer might ask for that and Jerry likes him. Plus he'd get more money for doing TV half the year. That pays more.

Farmer will get TV. Podsednik for radio

I think it would be a pretty appealing job. You get to do 81 home games with no travel. So you get to live in the city all summer. A lot of guys would love the "No travel".

So it's basically working every other 8 or 9 days all summer. Pretty nice.

Zack Zaidman might apply for it.

Each fan in attendance gets to call one inning.

Robin Ventura dual role

How fast will North get in his application? LOL

Kenny Williams.

He won't get it, but I wouldn't be shocked if he applied for it. Jerry will indulge him with an interview but no way he hires him.

Reinsdorf does have final say on this, right? It's not Brooks I wouldn't think.

Really? I hated him. I felt like he was broadcasting to ten year olds. "Well, Steve, can you tell us why the shortstop stands to the left of second base most of the time?"

Why is Hawk just doing the road games? That makes no sense.

He doesn't want to do the 2 hour drive back and forth to Granger Indiana anymore. That's where he lives. Because it's where his kids live.

Reinsdorf: So Hawk only wants to go on the road, and not do home games? WTF?

Brooks: You seen his wife? I'd want to travel too.

Reinsdorf: Good point. Who the F are we going to get to do home games? Any tribesmen around town who are available? What's Harry doing these days?

Brooks: What about Swirsk?

Reinsdorf: Maybe Stone will do pbp, and we can get some ex player who is just laying around town. Let's see.....Paulie doesn't live here, McDowell either. Scotty Pods? Hey How about Kittle!!! He's from Indiana so I bet we can get him cheap!!!

I did only listen for about 20 minutes. It was a good 20 minutes though.

While tongue in cheek from Mr Orr right there, this actually is true.

I'm going to bounce from the spot for awhile but I will be back at some point to argue with you about this hoops stuff again. Playoffs have been great this season. See ya up the road.

I'm out.

Get Wills to come back and do 120 games:

- The 81 on TV that Hawk isn't going to do.
- 20 more on TV to sit in for Stone so Stone doesn't kill Hawk with a fork
- 20 more on the radio to give Ed and DJ a break from each other

Or just do 120 on radio and have Ed and DJ each do 40 on TV. Or something.

Just get him. I listen to him and Andy Freed do the Rays home games on the radio on XM when I'm driving home from work, and they are excellent. Wills could even make Farmer useful.
