| Stan would like to bounce something off of Steve. He thinks it would be cool if Terry and Steve went to Arizona to cover the Cubs from their White Sox fan experience perspective. Terry actually was emailed about doing that with the Tribune so Stan thought Steve might want to do it with Terry. |
| 2:03
| Steve really isn't an interview kinda guy. He could do thought pieces from here. Stan would like to defend his concept. Buzz agrees with Stan, they are always looking for a different perspective. |
| 2:04
| Stan thinks Steve could talk about the differences in amenities with the ball parks and such. Based on what the Tribune pays Steve, he doesn't think they'll fly him down there and put him up to his liking. Also, Steve doesn't want to make Cubs fans hate him. He feels he has done a good job this year and congratulated the fans. |
| 2:05
| Saturday night at the Dahlfins show at the House of Blues Back Porch Stage,Terry escorted Buzz onto the stage. Terry was just sitting at the table with Buzz and decided to walk him up there. |
| 2:06
| Steve doesn't know what was going on with that show. There were tables and people leaving the Hanson concert out of the back door. He could see TVs and he wasn't even on them. Terry really just shoved Buzz up there, Terry caught a glimpse of Steve when he went up there and got the "what are you doing??" look. |
| 2:07
| Stan and Terry had a good time and thought everything sounded great. Steve is happy to hear that because they didn't even get to soundcheck because people were eating in the restaurant. |
| 2:09
| Steve stayed at the Sax Hotel right there and got to take the secret tunnel over to the show. Hanson was playing upstairs though and the ceiling was shaking from all of their screaming and jumping. |
| 2:10
| Stan saw a bunch of Hanson fans trying to get out of the parking lot he parked in and they didn't know how to use the machine at the pay station. Steve has seen that a lot lately, especially at that AMC movie theater. They just sit there and yell at the people on the speaker and try to convince them to open the gate. |
| 2:12
| Stan was stuck behind those girls for awhile. They didn't have a credit card and were blocking the lane for awhile. You have to figure that Hanson fans don't have credit cards. Stan would've paid for them but had to think that would come back to haunt him, paying for 16 year old girls parking. |
| 2:13
| Steve is glad they could make it to the show though. There were a lot of issues with the V.I.P. passes and Steve found out why, it seemed everyone wanted to come to that show because of the convenience of the location, just as Stan and Terry did. |
| 2:20
| Buzz was a hit Saturday, too big of a hit really, since he waltzes in and does one song. Buzz did stay for the whole show though. Steve doesn't think its fair he didn't have to deal with the drunk Cubs fan that looked like Santa Claus right in the front of the stage. He claimed he wasn't drinking but he kept talking and kept everyone away from the front because they didn't want to be associated with him. |
| 2:21
| That guy had on a Cubs Tommy Bahama shirt. Its just that the Cubs fans are just giddy, Steve wants to have an audience manager to ensure that he has cute girls up there and not drunk dudes. |
| 2:22
| It was weird to play the room because there were people standing and then behind them were people sitting at tables. It went well though, everyone said they had a good time. |
| 2:24
| We have one more show at the end of November, we just can't say where it will be yet. Steve thinks we can't say because the Budweiser guy uses him to get things at various venues. |
| 2:25
| That guy in the front Saturday just couldn't let Steve get the last word. Guys like him are the reason the bulletin board at dahl.com had to be taken down. Steve just wants to see girls in the front, not a sausage fest. Steve was also irritated with Adam because he couldn't stop taking pictures of Steve, for the first hour he took pictures and movies of Steve. Buzz thinks he needs something else to do so put him in charge of moving the audience around to get girls in the front. |
| 2:27
| Steve felt like it was a prison rape on stage because it was so small it felt like the Nadas were on top of him. Jason had a scarf on and it kept hitting Steve. |
| 2:29
| Caller Doug is calling in from Florida, he listens on the stream on the web. He lives where the Dodgers had spring training. He is excited the Dodgers are moving because the White Sox may practice there. Doug was at an Aerosmith concert and there were all dudes in the front there. |

| 2:38
| Caller Myrna is letting Steve know Myrtle Beach is in South Carolina and not North. Buzz is right about North Carolina being better than South though, even if it does have Myrtle Beach and Hilton Head. North Carolina is beautiful and a lot of people are retiring there now. |
| 2:41
| Myrna has called before about speaking French, she talked to Steve when he went to the Escoffier dinner. Steve went to France and people seemed nice, he went with Pat and Pat didn't really enjoy it. He didn't want to eat the French food and plus everyone thought he was Steve's lover. |
| 2:43
| Steve is having issues with the phone lines again. He is making a note of the line because its one of those things he can't prove is happening later. |
| 2:45
| Does Steve remember correctly, did he receive a kiss from Buzz Saturday? Buzz gave him a kiss on the cheek. Steve isn't complaining, he wanted more actually. Steve thought it was because he was saying that he has been very happy with the show and appreciates having Buzz be a part of it. Buzz said it was completely disconnected from that. The kiss was furry since Buzz has the beard and all but again, Steve isn't complaining. |
| 2:47
| As far as Steve ever reuniting with Garry, Buzz would just like to know he would be a part of that. Steve would love to still have Buzz with him no matter what happens. |

| 2:56
| So Friday after the show Steve and all the kids from the show piled into a limo and headed up to the Park West for the Gilda's Club benefit. |
| 2:57
| Steve was on the floor for a little bit in the VIP area but he thought it would be anticlimactic to sit down there and then be part of the show. That's the big showbiz reveal. |
| 2:58
| Steve watched the show from above for a while. They had one guy from Second City who looked like Tim Meadows moderating. Then there were 4 people from Second City doing the improv. |
| 2:59
| The Second City people didn't have much to do when Steve and Garry were up there because they're pretty interesting. Steve met all of them before the show and they heard he was going to beat someone up. |
| 3:00
| There were two TV crews filming the event. One of them was the Nude Hippo show but that's only public access so why are they even there? Steve politely declined an interview. |
| 3:01
| The worst guy there was the one from here, that William Kelly guy. At least the Nude Hippo guy knows Steve is going to say no. |
| 3:02
| WIlliam Kelly is on Fox but he buys the time and he's also on WCKG. He was back in the main lobby area |
| 3:03
| Why is that guy there? How does that help anyone after the fact, other than getting the Gilda's Club name out there. |
| 3:04
| That guy came to Buzz's gig at Katerina's a few weeks ago and the segment still hasn't aired. Buzz was supposed to be on last Saturday so he recorded it. |
| 3:05
| He sat there fast-forwarding through it, waiting for his part. Finally he saw WCKG so he stopped. It was Jimmy Mac and Wendy at some museum opening. Jimmy Mac produces that guy's show though. |
| 3:06
| Sometimes you just have to say no but it's hard when they're shining the light in your face. Elton Jim from Garry's show got interviewed as well. Garry is like Steve though in that he knows he doesn't need to do that kind of stuff. |
| 3:07
| At least the Nude Hippo guy asks you questions. William Kelly just says things like "what about carpeting?" and then expects you to conduct the interview off of his random thoughts. |
| 3:08
| Someone needs to stop that guy though. How much could that time really cost on the station? Whatever it is, Steve will pay a dollar more. That's all they really care about here anyway. Plus it'll save on production costs because they'll just shut everything down for an hour. |
| 3:09
| Live read: Balance for Life |
| 3:10
| Steve thought he had a really bad day yesterday, like he'd eaten his weight in tortilla chips. Turns out it wasn't as bad as he thought it was. It's a lot easier once you know how much you're supposed to eat. |
| 3:11
| Steve could post the link to the Nude Hippo video from Friday night. Steve would do stuff with that kid if he promised not to run things into the ground. |
| 3:12
| Steve should have done something with the Nude Hippo kid because he's a nice guy. That William Kelly is making it bad for everyone. |
| 3:13
| Steve has a tendency to break bad on the charity but he didn't do that on Friday. Instead he channeled it into some really profane jokes. |
| 3:14
| Steve's pretty sure all the video has been bleeped. What he heard earlier was bleeped but maybe he should check during the break. Or maybe he should just put up a link at Dahl.com |
| 3:15
| You can't really understand what Steve is saying but you can tell from the bleeps how much he's swearing. |
| 3:16
| Steve had a good time though and it was cool to be up on stage at the Park West where he and Garry did a lot of stuff. |
| 3:17
| Steve also had his picture taken with Jen Schefft from The Bachelorette. They actually dated and then broke up during the picture. Steve didn't have a picture taken with The Hungry Hound, he had to leave at 9:30. |
| 3:18
| The Hungry Hound seemed very happy that Steve knew he had to leave at 9:30 to be on TV and that he was talking about meatball sandwiches that night. |
| 3:17
| Steve could go for a meatball sandwich right not. He's not sure if that would fit in with his balanced diet. Maybe if he had 1/3rd of the sandwich it would be balanced. |
| 3:18
| The problem is, what do you do with the other 2/3rds of the sandwich? That's what's good about Balance for Life, they only send you the 1/3rd of the sandwich. |
| 3:25
| That's the magic right there, William Kelly talking to Jimmy Mac about God knows what. What was that from, where were they? |
| 3:26
| That was from the TV show and Mac and Wendy were at the opening of an Indian restaurant. Was Wendy too busy eating? |
| 3:27
| Congrats to Pete and Jim on the Cubs winning the NL Central. Steve's going to bring Jim on this too. |
| 3:28
| Steve was told earlier that Jim was upset because he was going to be late for work, he was moving today. Steve didn't care though. Was he even late? |
| 3:29
| Jim got here at about 2:45 so Steve will have to dock his pay. That's going to hurt because he probably spent a lot of money on the security deposit. |
| 3:30
| Jim's actually living in a place with cheaper rent so he's moving down in the world. It's a cheaper neighborhood but that's still moving down in the world. |
| 3:31
| Old Town is very expensive and Bucktown isn't is expensive. Is Jim moving in with his black girlfriend? |
| 3:32
| Steve saw Pete with a girl on Friday. It was an actual girl that Pete introduced to Steve. Usually you see Pete working on something unspeakable |
| 3:33
| Saturday Buzz saw Pete with the Catman. Catman came up to Steve and gave him a drunk, 20 minute apology. Catman is a big fan but drunken apologies go on a little too long for Steve. |
| 3:34
| Steve has a bone to pick with Pete because at one point one of the Larkin & Moran Brothers came up on stage and threw a pair of Cubs panties up there. |
| 3:35
| If Steve wanted to do a show for everyone he knows he'd do one at his house. Steve didn't know where to go with the panties, it was sort of like the time his brother heckled him at the Bismarck. It was also the head Larkin & Moran Brother, who is supposedly the brains of the operation. |
| 3:36
| Steve actually got an email from Dan Larkin. He was coerced into putting the panties on stage by Pete. Pete's not sure where the idea to do that came from. Probably from a glass. |
| 3:37
| So congratulations on the Cubs. Steve saw both Pete and Jim on Friday and there still seemed to be some trepidation. |
| 3:38
| The big rally was today in Daley Plaza at noon. Pete and Jim were probably there. |
| 3:44
| Pat Boyle is on the phone. Buzz doesn't have any copy, we were informed that that ended in September but we're still doing the reports. |
| 3:45
| Steve watched most of the Cubs Rally on Comcast. Pat thought Daley did a pretty good job, considering he's a White Sox fan. He seemed pretty jacked up wearing the Cubs hat too. Pete's going to grab some of the audio. |
| 3:46
| Steve also watched Bears Post Game Live yesterday, that sort of killed the Cubs buzz. At some point during that Steve fell in love with Jim Miller. He actually knows what he's talking about. |
| 3:47
| Before we get into that though Pete has the Daley audio. |
| 3:48
| What would Phoenix send Chicago if the Cubs won the first round? It seems like it's a city and state of transplants. Would they send us pizza from Connie's Scottsdale? |
| 3:49
| The closest thing to indigenous out there is probably Mexican food. They've got Don & Charlie's out there so they can send us back our own steaks and ribs. |
| 3:50
| Steve's pretty sure that the city sells that sponsorship so they make money off of it. That's pretty smart to charge people. |
| 3:51
| Pat would like to see some sort of WCKG merchandise included in the bet. We don't really have that kind of money here. Johnny B has ads on Comcast though, Steve saw it yesterday. |
| 3:52
| So Steve was watching Bears Post Game Live and Jim MIller is making sense to him. There was something about the way he was talking, discussing the coverages and using inside language that Steve really liked. |
| 3:53
| Steve still really doesn't know what to think about Griese though. Pat thinks he'll get better. They used the shotgun a ton yesterday, more than they ever did with Grossman. They also called an audible which they weren't confident enough in Rex to try before. |
| 3:54
| That said there were a lot of things that bothered Pat yesterday. There was zero running game yesterday. Cedric Benson is someone who could use legitimate competition because otherwise there's no fire. Yesterday in his post-game press conference you wouldn't have been able to tell if it was a win and a loss. |
| 3:55
| Last night on Football Night in America they were wondering why Devin Hester doesn't get the ball more offense. |
| 3:56
| Pat thinks that maybe Hester doesn't know all the offense pass plays. And maybe Olsen isn't in because he doesn't know all the pass protection. |
| 3:57
| If that's the case though they need to just say something. |
| 3:58
| It looks like the Bears might have to go out and sign a safety. It also doesn't look like either of the corners will play on Sunday against the Packers. |
| 3:59
| Pat still isn't convinced that the Packers are a legitimate contender. They beat the Chargers but then the Chargers thrashed the Chiefs. |
| 4:00
| It's quite a drop-off from last year though. A year ago the Cubs were finishing in last place and the Bears were a great team. |
| 4:01
| Lovie was mad yesterday and he was mad today when Brad Biggs asked him if they were going to bring in an offensive consultant. |
| 4:02
| One new item out of Lake Forest is that the Bears have terminated the contact of Obafemi Ayanbadejo. That's a little puzzling because it seems like he was going to help at fullback. |
| 4:03
| They were speaking very highly of him and they stuck their neck out to sign him. |
| 4:04
| Also the Cubs/Diamondbacks first two games in Arizona will be at 9:00 PM on Wednesday and Thursday. Back in Chicago the first game on Saturday is at 5:00 and the second one at noon on Sunday. |
| 4:05
| That works out perfectly or Steve and Buzz. They'll hit the Cubs game on Sunday and then drive up to Lambeau, tailgate and go to the game and then drive back on Monday, barbecue still smoking in the back. |
| 4:06
| It looked like Rex was having a little too much fun on the sidelines yesterday. Him and Orton were just yucking it up. That's a bad look. |
| 4:07
| That bugged Pat because when Rex is in a game he's got a blank stare on his face. Yesterday it looked like Rex and Kyle were doing improv. |
| 4:14
| We're tracking down the audio of Lovie Smith being asked about an offensive consultant today. It seems like we should just get that from WBBM-AM. Steve could probably walk in and demand it. Or he could just call and pretend he's Drew. |

| Steve had a Baconator at Wendy's on Saturday night. He also had some sort of Oreo Frosty. |
| 4:26
| On the phone is Bill Trousdale of Delay Play. That's the device Steve keeps telling people about that delays your radio so you can sync up the TV with the radio for a sporting event. |
| 4:27
| After yesterday Steve wanted to drive or fly up to Detroit and kill Brian Baldinger. He's a terrible broadcaster. |
| 4:28
| It sounds like Bill has a radio background. He hung around in the business for about 33 years. |
| 4:29
| The Delay Play is really catching on with SEC football fans. You really want the local guys because they know more about the team. |
| 4:30
| Steve has a Delay Play but he needs to get it hooked up properly. Bill is also thinking about how great it would be in bars where people watch games. |
| 4:31
| Steve gets a lot of emails every week from people asking him what devices he uses. Then he sends them a link to the website. |
| 4:32
| Bill has noticed a spike in website hits in the Midwest. That must be Steve. |
| 4:33
| Steve's going to be giving away a Delay Play today also. |
| 4:34
| It was great to hear someone with pipes on the show. Steve wasn't sure how long he should use the harmonizer for with Bill. |
| 4:35
| He always runs the risk of turning it on and wanting to talk with the deep voice forever. |
| 4:43
| That was a good run Hester had yesterday, especially after he stiff-armed that guy. |
| 4:44
| Has Buzz seen the picture of Hester's hoopty? Steve's not sure what kind of car it is but it's something from the 70s and it's all tricked-out. |
| 4:45
| Everyone keeps sending Steve the photo of the car but it doesn't say what kind of car it is. It's like last year when everyone sent STeve the photo of Rex Grossman with his face in some Packers' butt. |
| 4:46
| When Buzz sees the car he's going to want one of his own. No one will tell Steve what kind of car it is though. |
| 4:47
| Live read: Hamster Direct |
| 4:48
| Steve's going to give one of those Delay Plays away, probably after he talks to Tom Thayer. |
| 4:49
| Caller Bruce wanted to let Steve know that Hester is driving an Impala, maybe from 1968. What do they do to trick-out those cars though? |
| 4:50
| A hoopty is ghetto slang for an older car that is generally in bad condition. Hester's car isn't really in bad condition though. |
| 4:51
| Headlines with Buzz |
| 4:52
| There's something going on with the Isaiah Thomas trial but Buzz isn't sure what it is yet. |
| 4:53
| Also just in, Britney Spears has lost custody of her two children. That's not right. |
| 4:54
| The Dow broke the 14,000 mark for the second time ever today. Wasn't that an all-time high too? |
| 4:55
| That's a partial verdict in the Isaiah Thomas trial. The jury has reached a verdict but that's all Steve has. So just repeating now, Buzz will have the info when available. |
| 4:56
| 22 million pounds of frozen hamburger patties have been recalled by the Tops Beef company. |
| 4:57
| Also in food news, Patrick Bertoletti beat Joey Chestnut over the weekend in a grits eating competition in Louisiana. |
| 4:58
| It looks like Steve and Buzz backed the right horse. Actually when they didn't back him he wasn't winning but now they're not backing him and they can't get rid of him. |
| 4:59
| Pamela Anderson is reportedly set to marry Rick Solomon, the other person in the Paris Hilton sex tape. Is he marrying her just to spice up his sex tapes? |
| 5:00
| How could Solomon know what he knows about Anderson and still marry her? If Steve were Rick Solomon he wouldn't be able to get Tommy Lee out of his mind. Love conquers all though. |
| 5:01
| Caller Dwayne has some info about hoopties. A hoopty is a raggedy ride, it's not cool at all. Hester's call would be a Short or a Whip. |
| 5:02
| Dwayne hasn't seen Hester's car but the '68 Impala was a sweet ride. |
| 5:03
| Alright it's time for the Five O'Clock Taco Bell. It's also Manager Monday and on the phone is Lourdes Aguillar, manager of the Taco Bell in Schaumburg. |
| 5:04
| Steve's eating a Cheesy Beefy Melt, they're selling very well up at the Schaumburg store. Steve really likes the rice in the Cheesy Beefy melt, it goes great with the sour cream. |
| 5:13
| Tom Thayer is on the phone. Steve's getting a lot of emails from listeners who say Devin Hester is driving a 1975 Caprice Classic. Whatever it is Steve likes calling it a Whip. Is that what Tom calls his bike? |
| 5:14
| Steve has to give Tom credit because he can imagine how mad Tom was calling yesterday's game. He did a great job though. |
| 5:15
| The blame game is interesting in football. It's easy to pile on about certain aspects. Cedric needs more compliment in the running game. The offense needs to do better blocking. And they need to start calling plays for the kind of player Benson is. |
| 5:16
| The Bears need to start putting a little fear into some of the guys on the roster. They have to know that the nameplates on the lockers aren't permanent. |
| 5:17
| Another thing that Tom has talked about before is that all the deflections need to turn into receptions. The receivers need to work harder in practice. |
| 5:18
| They need to be practicing at game speed on Wednesday and Thursday. |
| 5:20
| Those goal line interceptions were just timing issues. |
| 5:21
| Steve wants to know what the biggest problem with the Bears are right now. The offensive line didn't play well on Sunday but they're not they're not the biggest problem. |
| 5:22
| The secondary was picked apart by John Kitna. It didn't help that both corners were out though. |
| 5:30
| Lovie seemed pretty mad after the game yesterday. You're always tested as a head coach. |
| 5:31
| During the week Lovie sees the team prepared for the game plan they're going to use to beat their opponent. Then on Sunday it doesn't work out that way. |
| 5:32
| Steve wanted to ask Tom something about the end of the game. The onside kick gets practiced a lot but it never goes the way you practice it. |
| 5:33
| Steve's question is, when they practiced the onside kick last week did they do it inside? |
| 5:34
| The team wasn't indoors but Brad Maynard and Robbie Gould practiced on the turf. Steve's going to recommend the entire kick team go in there. |
| 5:35
| The NFL has a new rule about the number of guys on the onside kick side but it does open more lanes and more opportunities. |
| 5:36
| The NFL should really try to take more football out of the game. Devin Hester got a penalty for spiking the ball. Steve heard Tom get really mad about those encroachment calls against the Bears too. |
| 5:37
| Tom couldn't believe that the same guy got three encroachment penalties. When the ref threw the flag for the third time Tom wanted to go down there. Maybe they should broadcast from the sidelines. |
| 5:38
| Steve still thinks that players should be allowed to horse collar. They can still do it in college. |
| 5:39
| Steve's going to take another break and then there are some people on hold who want to talk to Tom. |
| 5:40
| Steve would also like to know, after the break, why he should feel better with Griese than with Grossman. |
| 5:47
| So, why is Steve glad that Brian Griese is in there instead of Rex Grossman. The business side is that Rex's contract is up at the end of the year. So if he was still in there then they'd have to be ready to sign him to a longer deal. |
| 5:48
| Second, it's a character test for everyone else on the team. Sunday was a learning experience for everyone. It also gives Brian Griese a chance to talk with Ron Turner about what he likes to do. |
| 5:49
| Did Tom see any proof yesterday or today when watching the tapes that Griese was making better choices than Grossman? |
| 5:50
| It seemed like Griese had more guys to go to in the game like Garrett Wolfe. And Benson caught a few more passes as well. |
| 5:51
| Getting ready for Green Bay they'll have to get Greg Olsen a little more involved. |
| 5:52
| Steve liked Griese's demeanor after the game though. They lost and he knew they lost. He even said that he didn't see a lot of the plays because he was on his back. |
| 5:53
| Steve also liked Griese waiting until after he showered and changed before going to his press conference. |
| 5:54
| Live read: Gierczyk Properties |
| 5:55
| Steve loves when Tom does the Fellowes Shredder live read and mentions his home office. |
| 6:02
| Steve's going to give away one of those Delay Play machines right now. Be the 1,059th texter to 41059 and you win. |
| 6:03
| Steve was a little lazy yesterday and didn't hook his Delay Play. At some point during the game he wanted to drive up to Detroit and kill Brian Baldinger. He's a very irritating presence. |
| 6:04
| Caller Ben was in Champaign over the weekend watching Ron Turner's former team win. He did some great work down there. |
| 6:05
| Ben watched the game in a loud bar but even he could hear the ref blow the whistle after we had recovered the John Kitna fumble. That's we as in the Bears right? |
| 6:06
| Is Ben jogging while he's talking? He actually went outside because his baby is crying. Maybe there's something wrong with it? |
| 6:07
| That was one of the first things that really irritated Tom about yesterday. But you can't challenge it. |
| 6:08
| The pace of yesterday's game was really weird, it seemed like the officials never had control of the game. |
| 6:09
| There was an point in the game when the ref's mic was still on and he had to go talk to Rod Marinelli. |
| 6:10
| Caller Patrick is wondering if maybe Griese was trying to finesse the ball a little bit too much which led to the interceptions. |
| 6:11
| Tom doesn't think he's finessing the ball. Right now Griese is trying to get on a train that's going 100 mph. He needed one start to get things together a little bit. |
| 6:12
| It seems like they stayed with Grossman a little bit longer and now this is a bad time to change. |
| 6:13
| There's an idiot part of Steve that thinks everything is going to be fine with the Bears. That leads to a lot of depression when they aren't great though. |
| 6:14
| It's like today at the Cubs rally, they're asking fans what they think is going to happen. Obviously they're going to say sweep, they're at the rally! |
| 6:20
| When the ref's mic was on for too long yesterday they were talking about how Rod Marinelli was furious that he didn't have any challenges left. |
| 6:21
| Those are the rules though. If you win your first two challenges you get a third one. |

| 6:25
| On the phone is Patrick Bertoletti. He ate 21 pounds of grits in 10 minutes over the weekend. That's a lot of grits. |
| 6:26
| Patrick broke the record, beat his nemisis Joey Chestnut and also beat Eater X. |
| 6:27
| Buzz is wondering what Patrick attributes his success against Joey Chestnut to. Patrick thinks he was movtivated by being on the show. |
| 6:28
| The other thing is that Joey Chestnut is very picky about what foods he eats. Patrick does a lot of the weirder ones so he had no problem with the grits. |
| 6:29
| That's 2 1/2 gallons of grits, Buzz can't even imagine how that would fit into Patrick's stomach. |
| 6:30
| Patrick's stomach can hold about 3 gallons. Plus grits are denser than water so it's less volume. It's all scientific. |

| Patrick's next contest is at the Waffle House in Dallas. It's just straight waffles, broken in half. Patrick did it two years ago and only had 11 1/2. Steve could do that! |
| 6:32
| Buzz saw footage of Patrick eating over the weekend and it said "World Champion." He got excited. |

| An LA judge ordered pop star Britney Spears to hand over her children to ex-husband Kevin Federline. He is of course the model of good parenting. |
| 6:42
| In the media he is a good father because Britney is shown doing all this stuff. Although when she was driving the car with the baby in her lap K-Fed was the father. They should take the kids away from both of them and give them to Angelina Jolie. |

| A new poll shows American's are evenly split on Hillary Clinton. So that's what the campaigning is for then. |
| 6:44
| Also a growing number of Americans feel that global warming is an important issue and would vote for a candidate based on that. |

| The man being sought in the alleged assault of a 3-year old girl is dangerous according his ex-girlfriend, the girl's mother. |

| Steve wasn't told that he'd be playing a piece of audio off the computer but he figured it out on his own. Then Pete started playing it anyway. Buzz takes all the blame, he didn't tell anyone about it. |
| 6:47
| The president of Duke University is finally apologizing publicly to the 3 lacrosse players who were accused of sexually assaulting an exotic dancer. The guy sounds like a computer. |

| 10,000 people Cubs fans came to Daley Plaza for the Cubs rally today. Those present include former Cubs players and managers, mayor Daley and governor Blagojevich. |
| 6:49
| It just so happens that Steve has Blago on the CLTV right now. The crowd cheered for Daley to put on a Cubs hat but Blago couldn't do it because he'd mess up his hair. |

| On Friday Vince Gerasoli was at Cubby Bear interviewing fans. Then some dude walked up and starting saying "this guy's gay" to Vince. There's no way to stop that really. |

| How are Matt and Brendan going to handle the Cubs thing? Because Brendan is a Cubs fan and Matt is a Sox fan. |
| 7:00
| Unlike Steve though, Matt is a little more of a bitter Sox fan. Matt thinks he's been fair about it though, he let Brendan celebrate it on Saturday. |
| 7:01
| Matt won't be playing Go Cubs Go out of every break but he did let Brendan play Jump! That's just a good song though. |
| 7:02
| Matt's trying not to be too bitter. It certainly helps that the White Sox won the World Series 2 years ago. |
| 7:03
| It also helps when your team finishes 25 games out of 1st place. Plus they went ahead and lost on Fan Appreciation day. |
| 7:04
| Steve's excited just to see what happens. It makes life around here a little more interesting. Matt was telling Brendan that Sox fans haven't had any good baseball to watch so now he'll be able to extend his baseball viewing. |
| 7:05
| It's a fun atmosphere too with the rally and Mayor Daley wearing a Cubs hat and the bet. |
| 7:06
| Matt will do stuff like point out to Brendan that he had to explain the magic number to a jersey-wearing Cubs fan. It was Bonnie though, she's a bit of a poser. She's a Cubs poser like Tina was a Sox poser in 2005. |
| 7:07
| Matt had to tell Bonnie that the Cubs had clinched though. She knew the Cubs had won and the Brewers had lost but she thought there was one game left. |
| 7:08
| There are a lot of Cubs fans who have been fans all their lives. Sometimes you don't think that's possible because there are so many new Cubs fans but there are guys like Bob Sirott or Rich Melman who have been fans all their lives. |
| 7:09
| And when the Cubs do win the World Series, just like with the White Sox, people will go out to visit the graves of their relatives and put Cubs wreaths on them. Brendan thinks Santo will probably go visit both his legs. Steve didn't know they were buried separately.
