| 5:35
| There ya go, there's some Whitesnake for ya and whatever that's called. Here I Go Again, isn't that the video where Tawny Kitaen is on the hood of the car? |
| 5:36
| Then she married the bass player and got hooked on something. Steve always figured she was hooked on something when she got up on that hood. |
| 5:37
| Steve would like to preface this phone call by saying that he's not trying to be the meanest man in the world, as he was labeled on Friday. He's not calling down to the Jack studio to be mean, he just wants to work out the timing. On Friday we were early, today we're a little late. |
| 5:38
| Steve just wants to talk to the kid down in the studio and in general get to know the people who work here. The Christmas party is coming up next month after all. Steve's hoping we get to go to the B96 Christmas party. |
| 5:39
| Steve and Buzz were talking to Peter, the GM of B96 on Saturday. He calls it The B which makes Steve want to call Jack The J. Although Jack is pretty simple on it's own. In a few other cities the station is called something else like Dave. |
| 5:40
| So again, Steve's not calling down to Jack to be the meanest man in the world. He's just calling to say hi. That said, does Steve even want to get involved in it? Because the guy was uber-defensive on Friday which makes Steve look bad. |
| 5:41
| Buzz thought that kid gave it up on Friday, he was apologizing for the issue. That also makes Steve look bad, like he's torturing prisoners at Gitmo. |
| 5:42
| That kid Steve and Buzz talked to on Friday runs a sports league that keeps stats for all the players. Steve was thinking over the weekend that he wouldn't mind playing softball in a league like that. |
| 5:43
| Maybe Steve should just let it go for today. But all he needs to do is drop a song. Up here all we're waiting for is to hear that last song. |
| 5:44
| Alright Steve's going to call down there but he'll be congenial. At this point the kid might have had time to prepare. Steve can't remember his name though. Buzz thought it was Kevin. |
| 5:45
| Alright Steve calls down to Jack. Kevin is running the board, Buzz was right. Under that gruff demeanor, Buzz is a people person. He just doesn't want to meet anyone. |
| 5:46
| Kevin dropped every song he was allowed to drop today but it still went over. So now he'll start dropping other songs. |
| 5:47
| Todd will know everything that Kevin drops and he'll ask him why he dropped it. Todd schedules the music a week and a half in advance and then checks to see what has played everyday. |
| 5:48
| Does Kevin have a 12 inch softball league, did we establish that on Friday? They're starting up a 12 inch league in the Spring. Is it a senior league? |
| 5:49
| Is Kevin ripped? Could he take Steve? Kevin wouldn't say he's ripped but Mary's seen him so she could answer. She probably wouldn't say he's ripped. |
| 5:50
| Could Steve take Kevin? Kevin feels he might be a little fast for Steve. What if Steve had him cornered in a room? |
| 5:51
| Kevin is a trifle irritating but Steve figured he would just let him do that. A match between Steve and Kevin might become some sort of promotional event. |
| 5:55
| Blue Monday on the Steve Dahl Show. Steve had the big concert over the weekend at Durty Nellie's. The spelling of dirty with a U seems dirtier for some reason, like filthy and nasty. |
| 5:56
| Is Steve remembering correctly that he was kissed by Buzz on stage? Buzz thought about it for the entire ride home and came to the conclusion that on stage is the only place you can kiss another man without catching any grief. |
| 5:57
| Steve's not giving Buzz any grief, he just wishes he wouldn't have pulled away so quickly. It was a very tender kiss though. |
| 5:58
| Steve was going to shave on Saturday but he didn't have any shaving cream at the hotel. Steve was staying at the Sheraton in Arlington Heights. Don't ever go there on the weekends if you don't like kids. They have a water park there so on the weekends the place is turned over to kids. If you're a child molester though, get a room. |
| 5:59
| First of all, a hotel that big should have a bellman but they didn't. Then he got a club sandwich from room service and the turkey clearly came from a pre-packaged container. |
| 6:00
| And then there were about a bazillion kids there. Bazillion is Steve's new catch phrase. Kids were running all over the place, unsupervised. All the parents were coming in with coolers so Steve assumed there was booze in there. |
| 6:01
| Buzz hates when kids are unsupervised like that. He usually tries to figure out a way to trip them though. A lot of stuff went through Steve's mind. He knew he wouldn't be able to take a nap so he watched COPS, then took a shower but didn't have the shaving cream. He didn't want to go down to the lobby and try to figure out how to get any. |
| 6:02
| So if you don't supervise your kids then bring them to this hotel. But if you do supervise your kids, don't bring them because they'll pick up some bad habits. |
| 6:03
| Steve would have been better off staying in his dressing room. It had a shower and two nice couches where Steve and Buzz, Buzz's friend Chris Wood and GM Peter Bowen chatted. |
| 6:04
| It wasn't exactly like the old days though, pretty low-key. Steve sat there drinking a sugar-free Red Bull, there was a Red Bull fridge in the dressing room. |
| 6:05
| Steve also seems to have a Red Bull fridge in the studio today. It makes a noise but so far it isn't bugging him. This fridge, as well as the one in the dressing room are probably the beginning of a great relationship for Steve with Red Bull. |
| 6:06
| Buzz and Chris seemed like they were actually drinking in the dressing room but Peter had a club soda. Pretty wild! |
| 6:07
| That was only the second time Buzz had met Peter. He saw him here on the first day and then on Saturday he came up to Buzz and said "big fan" Buzz had no idea who he was and sort of blew him off. Then Buzz saw him in the dressing room and thought he had a stalker. |
| 6:08
| Turns out the most action Steve got on Saturday was from Buzz. How about doing that in the dressing room next time? |
| 6:09
| Steve did take some Trucker's Speed in the dressing room, it got pretty crazy. After the show it was just Steve and Jason from The Nadas and some dude who wasn't supposed to be in there and kept coming back. Apparently Steve doesn't have security. |
| 6:10
| The guy wouldn't leave either. First he came down to have Steve sign a t-shirt, then the guy wanted him to sign his arm. Steve told him it was gay but he did it anyway. Then the guy came back and was just kneeling in front of Steve. |
| 6:11
| Then the guy started bugging the Led Zeppelin cover band, Prezence. They came out to say hi to Steve. He hates meeting people because then he can't make fun of them. |
| 6:12
| It took Prezence an hour and a half to set up. Steve's heard they're very good impersonators, but when you're in a band like that you almost have to double down on all your gear to compensate for the fact that you're a cover band. |
| 6:13
| Steve was trying to leave and he couldn't get out because the band had a bunch of cars blocking him. Finally they figured out they could have their wives move the cars while they set up. |
| 6:14
| The Jimmy Page guy got all that going. Buzz knows him and he's a longtime Steve Dahl fan. Buzz asked him if he heard Steve ripping on the band last week and he did and he said it was an honor. |
| 6:15
| The Nadas had parked their tour bus all the way down the alley behind Durty Nellie's, then Steve pulled behind them then Prezence pulled behind him. |
| 6:16
| Steve would like to kick off the Thanksgiving season by playing a delightful tape. It really needs now explaining. |
| 6:17
| Imagine the ladies at the Butterball hotline answering the phone when Joan Jett calls in to tell them there's no appropriate way to cook a tortured bird. |
| 6:21
| That's Flight of the Conchords, funny show. Buzz never got a chance to watch it but it's probably on On Demand or DVD. Buzz never knew what it was about until it was over but it sounded great. |
| 6:22
| Live read: The Little Guys |
| 6:23
| Steve was at The Little Guys for the Sony HES-V100 demo on Saturday. Buzz could take all the episode he hasn't watched of 30 Rock and load them into this HES-V100. |
| 6:24
| He could then edit out the commercials, put in chapters and then burn them on DVD. Then they'd be off the TiVo and off the HES-V100 too. |
| 6:25
| Adam was down there with Steve on Saturday as his people. The Jack Street Team was also there. One of those guys is that AJ kid but there's also a girl. She seemed quite nice but Steve can't remember her name. |
| 6:26
| Adam ended up buying a TV from The Little Guys. When he came to work for Steve he got a raise, he's already blowing his money on stuff. |
| 6:27
| Adam doesn't have an HD subscription because he's stealing cable. What's the point of having an HDTV if you don't get the HD programming? Steve might have to help him sort that out too. Steve had to give him a raise after seeing what WCKG was paying him. He qualified for government cheese and food stamps! |
| 6:28
| Steve hasn't seen Adam yet but he's down in Dan Falato's old office. Steve calls down to the weather center to see where Adam is. Jim's down in the news room/traffic center/weather center, keeping tabs on everything. |
| 6:29
| Buzz was wondering if Adam had his amp from Saturday. It's all about him isn't it? How much more is cable with HD? Isn't it going to drive Adam nuts not having HD? |
| 6:30
| We've got some Drew Peterson coming in right now on the Today's Show. He has a new lawyer, which he got off his last appearance on the Today's Show. |
| 6:31
| It seems like the lawyer's going to do all the talking which is totally going to stifle The Drewster. |
| 6:32
| Peterson and his lawyer disagree with the findings of Michael Baden, the pathologist who performed the recent autopsy on Kathleen Savio. What does that guy know? He's just a professional medical examiner. |
| 6:33
| Steve will let Adam go before he gets him into any trouble. Isn't it going to drive him nuts having a 42" TV and no HD? That TV is bigger than him. |
| 6:34
| Steve's going to take a call right now because he doesn't quite understand it. |
| 6:35
| Caller Ken had a series of odd coincidences on Saturday. Back in '92 he was hanging out in Ireland at a place called Durty Nellie's, near Bunratty Castle. Oh right, Bunratty! |
| 6:36
| Ken went to college at U of I with Ian from The Nadas. He was center school in the marching band. Steve had no idea! |
| 6:37
| Ken thinks Ian is a great drummer, he could probably sleep through Steve's set. Steve doesn't know what that means but it seems like an insult. Ken was wondering what Ian brought to Steve during the show. |
| 6:38
| Alright, Steve's done with this call. He was only sort of interested in the call. He can't really talk about what was on that piece of paper on the air. |
| 6:39
| After Hula Hula Boys Steve said he didn't know what the Hawaiian words in the chorus meant, even though he does. Then Mark Czerniec got a piece of paper to Ian with something funny on it. |
| 6:40
| Center snare in the drumline? Who says stuff like that? You can't say that when you're an adult. |
| 6:41
| Steve gets to see the lamest drumline ever on Sunday at Soldier Field. For some reason he always arrives just at the moment when they're walking in. The Bears need cheerleaders! |
| 6:42
| Durty Nellie's is one of Ireland's most famous landmarks, in the shadow of Ireland's Bunratty Castle. That sounds like a place where guys go to have fun. |
| 6:43
| Headlines with Buzz |
| 6:44
| Klutzo the Clown is dead. That's the one downstate who was in custody, awaiting charges of sex crimes. The other Klutzo, who lives in Algonquin had to abandon his name after these charges surfaced. |
| 6:45
| Guest medical examiner Michael Baden has concluded that Drew Peterson's third wife was a homicide victim. |
| 6:46
| Gas prices have risen to an average of $3.09 across the country but it's slightly lower in Chicago. |
| 6:47
| Detroit has been named the most dangerous city in the country. Chicago was not ranked but only because the study had incomplete data.. What kind of study is that? |
| 6:48
| Buzz gets the feeling that Chicago didn't want to release the data. That's so Chicago. Why should we release the data? |
| 6:49
| It is now illegal to report gossip in Italy unless it leads to a greater understand of the person the gossip is about. |
| 6:50
| And now, some gossip. Britney Spears can no longer drive her children around in a car. That's not really gossip is it? Maybe you can't report slander in Italy. Do they not have a word for slander in Italian? |
| 6:55
| Tom Thayer's coming up at 7:00 but first today's web poll question "Would you be interested in Mick Jagger as a solo artist?" |
| 6:56
| Mick Jagger is one of rock's iconic figures. Since 1962 his name has conjured up images of a rail-thin man, preening and peacocking across the stage. That's what they about Steve too. |
| 6:57
| The Very Best of Mick Jagger has just been released by Rhino. The reporter on this story, Jim Fusili, is surprised that the quality of his solo work has slipped by everyone. |
| 6:58
| Buzz isn't surprised that Mick is a good solo musician. Maybe they're trying to say that Mick isn't the same without Keith. |
| 6:59
| None of Mick's solo work slipped by Steve though but he's a fan. The earliest song on the compilation is 1970's Memo From Turner. |
| 7:00
| Song: Memo From Turner, Mick Jagger |
| 7:03
| Buzz remembers that one too so it didn't slip by him. It's from the movie Performance where he plays a transvestite. |
| 7:04
| Let's say hi to good old number 57 of the 1985 Chicago football Bears, Tom Thayer. Tom's got a bit of a cough, he's still waking up. They got in about 1:00 or 1:30 this morning which wasn't too bad. |
| 7:05
| Steve was just reminded, while talking about Mick Jagger, that Tom and Keith Van Horne used to have Keith Richards on their radio show. Steve remembers he called in one time, from his hotel room in Chicago, demanding to know "where are the bitches at?" |
| 7:06
| He wanted Tom and Keith to send some women over. They weren't sure why he needed help finding women. Steve feels that in this market '85 Bears trump a Rolling Stone. Tom's not sure about that but he thinks the '85 Bears could beat up the Rolling Stones. |
| 7:07
| So where do we begin with the Bears? It's another game where they didn't get beat, they lost it themselves. |
| 7:08
| Seattle didn't do anything to beat the Bears yesterday. Everything the Bears did was self-destruction. |
| 7:09
| Lets start with Rex then. Everyone is saying he had a good game. Tom thinks he played well enough to get the start next week. It does put the Bears in an interesting position with his contract though. |
| 7:10
| That turnover was pretty disappointing though. Those are mistakes he shouldn't be making at this point in his career. He should have been protecting he ball like a running back. |
| 7:11
| Rex said yesterday after the game that he was getting ready to throw the ball on that play. He should have had it up by his shoulder then. When he took off Buzz almost had a heart attack. |
| 7:12
| What's the deal with Fred Miller not being able to stop Patrick Kerney at all? It's the crowd noise at Qwest Field. |
| 7:13
| As much of an advantage as that stadium is to the Seahawks, the Bears beat themselves yesterday. |
| 7:14
| Buzz was wondering if the Bears re-hired Dick Shoop without him knowing about it. On 3rd and 14 they went with a 5 yard pass across the middle. Even if the pass works perfectly you're nowhere near a first down! |
| 7:15
| On the plane ride home did Tom want to walk up a smack a few guys for the way they played? Tom sits behind the players so he could walk up while they're sleeping and they wouldn't even know what happened. |
| 7:16
| How about on that 4th and 1 when Cedric Benson didn't go right through the hole. Tom doesn't think you can put that on Cedric, there were some bad blocks on the offensive line. |
| 7:17
| What's with the defense giving up 300 passing yards? |
| 7:18
| Its seems like Hasselbeck had the Bears defense completely unsettled. There was one play where the entire line shifted over. It looked like a fire drill! |
| 7:19
| So what do we take away from all this? Tom had a solid salmon dinner the night before. Was there an argument with Doug Coletti at dinner, did Steve hear that? |
| 7:20
| Tom and Doug got into an argument about where two officials call a punt that goes out of bounds. On a punt there's one guy standing behind Maynard and one guy on the sidelines trying to approximate where it went out. |
| 7:21
| Doug wants to call that an exact location but you can't because neither guy is right near the ball. Doug said it was simple geometry then told Tom he didn't know anything about geometry. |
| 7:22
| Does Tom want to hang on and take some calls or does he want to go back to bed? Tom's up now so he'll take question on football, seafood and limited geometry. |
| 7:23
| Live read: The Little Guys |
| 7:30
| Steve likes how Rex Grossman walked off the podium in the post-game press conference yesterday. He likes the new attitude. |
| 7:31
| Tom likes it too, as long as it doesn't spill over in a negative way. Steve didn't think it was negative, but at some point the reporters were asking him the same thing over and over and he had had enough. |
| 7:32
| He wasn't happy with the fumble but that's just part of the game, it happens. |
| 7:33
| Tom might notice that Steve's eating right now, he's having his Balance for Life. |
| 7:34
| Live read: Balance for Life |
| 7:35
| Tom was thinking that maybe during next season he and Jeff could compete with Steve and Buzz to see who can lose the most weight on Balance for Life |
| 7:36
| There's no way Steve and Buzz lose this one. Steve's got the most weight to lose. |
| 7:37
| Before we take some calls, Steve wants to know what Tom thinks the rest of this season means. They're not mathematically eliminated yet but this season has shown you a lot about certain people. |
| 7:38
| As much of a player's coach as Lovie is, he's also willing to make personnel changes so everyone should be on alert. The Bears need to go out and beat the crap out of the Broncos next week though. |
| 7:39
| The Bears are a better home team than the Broncos are a road team. They don't have any superstars and they have a young QB. |
| 7:40
| Tom said yesterday that the Devin Hester reverse experiment should be over. He shouldn't touch the ball behind the line of scrimmage. |
| 7:41
| They need to start hitting Hester down field. When you have someone like Rex Grossman who can throw the ball that far it makes sense. |
| 7:42
| Could Hester have returned that one kick off if he hadn't tried to stiff-arm the kicker? It seems like he was just doing it for fun. |
| 7:43
| Caller Gary has a question for Tom, it's something that's been bothering him and his son about Ron Turner for years. Why did they kneel down with 11 seconds left in the first half, with a tie game? |
| 7:44
| Tom is with Gary on this one. They should have put Hester right on the line, with 4 other receivers and just send him down the field. |
| 7:45
| Caller Bill is a baby boomer and he has to thank Tom for '85. He also has to thank Steve for all the great years of broadcasting. Is Bill going to kill himself or something? |
| 7:46
| Bill thinks it's time for the Bears to get a new offensive coordinator and he thinks Tom would be great for the job. As Tom said earlier everyone on the team is going to be evaluated. |
| 7:47
| Steve's not a fan of Ron Turner or his brother Norv. Ron seems like a McCaskey family corporate cramdown to Steve. |
| 7:48
| Ron Turner did have some success with the Bears the first time he was here with Erik Kramer and Curtis Enis. |
| 7:49
| Caller John is wondering at what point Lovie Smith will realize the defense can't win games for them any more. |
| 7:50
| It's time to stop thinking that the offense only needs to go out there and not lose the game. They now have to win the game. |
| 7:51
| The Bears just don't have the players on defense that they did last year. So it's not really the scheme, it's the personnel. |
| 7:52
| How about what a great little actor Matt Hasselbeck was yesterday? At least 4 times he had some injury and was holding his arm or his back. At one point he seemed to forget what part hurt. |
| 7:53
| John was wondering if Steve could put up a link to that radio delay thing, he can't listen to the Fox announcers any more. Steve couldn't get his Delay Play working yesterday so he just shut the audio off. |
| 7:54
| Buzz just wanted to congratulate Tom on that great Notre Dame win on Saturday. And how much did Miami lose by on Saturday? |
| 7:55
| Miami is conveniently dead to Buzz. At least Tom is sticking with his team. Miami loses two games and they're dead to Buzz. |
| 8:01
| Steve's sitting on some Drew Peterson but before we do that he'd like to spin a tune if that's alright with Buzz |
| 8:02
| Song: Authority Song, John Cougar Mellencamp |
| 8:05
| In that song is the lyric "I fight authority and authority always will" or "authority always wins". Steve hears it both ways during the song but never looks it up. |
| 8:06
| And now someone else who fights authority and Steve feels they'll ultimately win, Joan Jett. |
| 8:07
| The lyric is "authority always wins." What's the point of writing a song like that? |
| 8:08
| Alright Steve's got the Drew Peterson interview on the Today's Show but he doesn't feel good about it based on what he's read. It seems like the lawyer did most of the talking. |
| 8:09
| It says that Peterson and the lawyer are in Bolingbrook, Steve didn't know they have a TV studio out there. Buzz thought they were in a hotel room. What if it's at the hotel where Stacy used to work? |
| 8:10
| Live read: Townstone Financial |
| 8:12
| Caller Nancy wanted to let Steve know that FedEx/Kinko's has had videoconferencing for 10 years so they could be there. Does Nancy know that for sure? |
| 8:13
| There is a FedEx in Bolingbrook but Nancy's not sure if that's where he is. Does she work for them or something? |
| 8:14
| Nancy does work for FedEx/Kinko's. So she's just trying to get a free commercial? Steve's going to transfer her over to the sales department. |
| 8:15
| Steve's guessing that the Today's Show doesn't videoconference with people at Kinko's. |
| 8:22
| Alright Steve's going to throw this Today's Show thing on. It's Drew Peterson and his new lawyer Joel Brodsky, who Steve thinks he knows. |
| 8:23
| From everything Steve's read the attorney does all the talking which makes sense. That's probably why he wanted to be on again. |
| 8:24
| Is there a delay here or do Peterson and his lawyer just have bad attitudes? They're both trying to look like badasses. |
| 8:25
| Steve feels that if the Bolingbrook Community Theater ever put on a production of Wizard of Oz, Drew Peterson could play the lion |
| 8:26
| Is Drew wearing a crazy shirt? He's got stripes on which you're not really supposed to wear on TV. You'd think the lawyer would have a media consultant. |
| 8:27
| Steve doesn't have a good feeling about this. We're not getting the freewheelin' Drew Peterson from last week. He's stonewalling it. |
| 8:28
| Steve has a bath tub accident a couple of years ago up at a hotel in Detroit. No one even heard him fall. |
| 8:29
| Buzz gets the feeling that Matt Lauer isn't happy with this interview at all and he's going to unleash everything he has. |
| 8:30
| Matt Lauer asks Drew what he thinks about the comments made by his second wife, who said he threatened to kill her and make it look like an accident. |
| 8:31
| The lawyer said he can't answer that question. He won't get in trouble for lying to Matt Lauer, just say no. He's in this deep already. |
| 8:32
| The lawyer says that the Fox Entertainment group flew a medical examiner in to examine Savio's body. It's not like they got a writer from The Simpsons to do it. |
| 8:33
| There's a nice picture of Drew and Stacy, the happy couple, and Stacy looks really hot. She was 17 in the photo though. |
| 8:34
| Steve gets the feeling that Drew is rethinking getting representation. America wants the freewheelin' Drew Peterson. |
| 8:35
| Matt Lauer is not happy. He probably got up right away and started yelling at someone off stage. |
| 8:36
| NBC is still sitting on an additional Drew Peterson interview from Dateline. That's going to be the freewheelin' Drew Peterson. |
| 8:37
| Live read: Comcast |
| 8:45
| There's the freewheelin' Drew Peterson we like to hear. |
| 8:46
| Live read: Allen Brothers |
| 8:47
| Steve likes to give the gift of meat because it always gets the job done. People are always grateful and they never forget who gave it to them. |
| 8:48
| Buzz has always had great success giving the gift of meat. Allen Brothers is the best meat around. |
| 8:49
| The first wife of Drew Peterson is speaking out in her first TV interview. They have the video on ABC7.com. |
| 8:50
| Does Pete have it on a tape because the audio is pretty bad coming off the channel 7 website. |
| 8:51
| Steve knows he doesn't have it ready right now so he doesn't need to scramble to find it. |
| 8:52
| Steve can just play a tune while Pete looks for it. Or does he have it now? Pete might enjoy showing off how quickly he can find something and Steve doesn't want to take that away from him. |
| 8:53
| Pete actually has the original interview from Good Morning America, not the ABC7 version. That would probably be OK. |
| 8:54
| How long is the Diane Sawyer interview? It seems like the ABC7 interview might have better stuff in it. Steve really just wants to see what the first wife looks like. Is she hot? |
| 8:55
| Pete says Carol Brown isn't that bad. That Drew is quite the ladies man. |
| 8:56
| Carol knew Kathleen Savio and Stacy Peterson. Does Drew like to get together all the women he's nailed or been married to? Maybe get them together in a banquet hall. All the girls he was married to are up on a riser like at a wedding. |
| 8:57
| Brown's marriage to Peterson ended after she caught him cheating. What does she want, he's Drew Peterson? He's a ladies man! |
| 8:58
| Buzz has a young wife doesn't he? Has he ever thought about having a convention like Drew does? |
| 8:59
| Carol Brown was quoted as saying Drew Peterson always told a lot of jokes. That wouldn't hurt Drew if that got out there, he might get a sitcom when this is all over. How about The Trouble With Drew, about a police officer with a lot of kids who he fathered with different women, some of whom are missing, some of whom are dead. Then he wants to meet new women but the broads from his past keep showing up on TV. |
| 9:00
| It seems like the script can write itself. With the writer's strike going on maybe it should be a reality show. |
| 9:01
| Cameras could be following him right now, seeing what he did after the second Today's Show interview. |
| 9:02
| What does Drew like on his pizza, how about that? Or maybe his brother can come over and they could wrestle or something? |
| 9:03
| Drew could be telling jokes too because he's a jokester. There's probably enough footage out there where you could put together a few episodes of the show. |
| 9:04
| Maybe the open of the show could be Drew almost crashing his motorcycle with the bandana again. Or a whole new open where Drew's getting out of his police car. |
| 9:05
| Drew's a Parrothead, maybe Jimmy Buffett could do the theme song. How about Wasted Away in Bolingbrook? |
| 9:06
| Song: Thunder Island, Jay Ferguson |
| 9:10
| Rockin' with some Jack music right there Buzz man. An hour of commercial-free music coming up at 10:00 AM. |
| 9:11
| Buzz can't wait, he makes the cab driver turn it on right? Most of the time when Buzz gets in the cab Jack is already on and he's delighted. That's good news. |
| 9:19
| Pat Boyle is on the phone from Comcast Sportsnet. Steve agrees with Pat, Adam Archuleta sucks. |
| 9:20
| Steve didn't want to bring that up with Tom because they might be friends or something. He's terrible though. |
| 9:21
| Adam Archuleta just stands there watching the plays unfold. You can see why he didn't play in Washington last year. And yet he was the big offseason pick-up for the Bears. |
| 9:22
| It seems like the Bears season is over before Thanksgiving. Steve flipped over to Post Game Live because he knew he'd get some good analysis. |
| 9:23
| Dan Jiggetts was going nuts with his praise for Cedric Benson. He started off well but didn't have anything else for the rest of the game. |
| 9:24
| The Bears probably should have given Cedric Benson more carries though. Pat liked hearing all the callers during Tom Thayer's segment, they all seem to think coaching is the biggest problem. |
| 9:25
| It seems like the QB is not really the problem any more. It's either Lovie or Ron Turner or Bob Babich. |
| 9:26
| Buzz can't stop thinking about that pass across the middle on 3rd and 14. It's like they don't have a play that goes over 16 yards. |
| 9:27
| The biggest thing that stands out to Pat was the play called on 4th and 1 when they Bears were trying to convert. |
| 9:28
| Ron Turner is an idiot and Bob Babich needs to go back from where he came from and get his eyebrows trimmed. |
| 9:29
| Buzz still doesn't understand how Ron Rivera gets fired after what he did with the defense last year. There was talk of ego clashes behind the scenes with Lovie and Rivera. |
| 9:30
| Does everyone forget about Mike Ditka and Buddy Ryan? Even Coach said it was good to have someone like Buddy on the team. |
| 9:31
| So Pat's saying it's officially over right? They're still taking things one game at a time but even Tom seemed to think it was over and he never says that. |
| 9:32
| Tom made a good point about the Bears evaluating everyone. We'll see what happens with Cedric Benson and where he goes from yesterday. |
| 9:33
| Pat gets that they want to get Adrian Peterson involved more but yesterday Cedric Benson finally starts off strong and you take the ball out of his hands?! |
| 9:34
| Once again, Ron Turner is an idiot. Has Pat ever talked to him? He's got a blank stare. And his brother's just as bad. Look what he's doing to the Chargers! They're horrible this year! Steve could coach that team to a better record! |
| 9:35
| Steve's starting to get irritated with Lovie Smith too, this is his team he needs to lay into some of these guys. After the game yesterday he said that Cedric should have gotten more carries. If he wants Cedric to get more carries then tell someone! |
| 9:36
| The worse the Bears get the lower they fall down on the broadcaster food chain. For the second week in a row we got Matt Vagesarian and BJ Peterson or whatever his name is. |
| 9:37
| Those guys used every cliche in the book and they were on camera way too often. JC Pearson was mugging to a camera across the field! He must have a monitor in the booth. |
| 9:38
| It also seemed like Vagesarian and Pearson were part of the Seahawks local radio team too. Pat has some audio that pretty much sums up what the Vasgersian/Pearson experience is all about. |
| 9:39
| Who is JC Pearson? Pat doesn't remember his NFL career but again this is the Fox Z crew. He's mugging to a camera cross the field and giving his top 5 list on several topics. |
| 9:40
| Pat never thought he'd long for Dick Stockton and Brian Baldinger. Suddenly those two don't look so bad. |
| 9:41
| NBC probably would have been better off airing the Bears/Seahawks game than the Bills getting killed by the Patriots. |
| 9:42
| And speaking of teams in disarray, the Bulls are also in disarray. The Lakers bench scored 73 points last night! |
| 9:47
| That Matt Vagesarian sure has a jive voice too. |
| 9:48
| Live read: Balance for Life |
| 9:49
| Anything in the news that Buzz needs to tell us about? There's nothing new but the top story is that Klutzo the Clown is dead. |
| 9:50
| That's the Klutzo who was in custody on charges of sex tourism. We still don't know how he died. |
| 9:51
| On the one hand they don't like short eyes in prison but on the other hand he was awaiting charges for sex tourism. |
| 9:52
| Lloyd Carr is expected to resign at coach of University of Michigan. |
| 9:53
| There's also a pot pie recall going on. 7 Illinoisians have become sick after eating bad pot pies. So if you have a pot pie that's part of the recall just throw it away. Some people thought they could heat them up and they'd be fine but then they got sick. |
| 9:54
| Steve likes a good pot pie. Marie Callendar makes a great pot pie. They're about a thousand calories a piece though. |
| 9:55
| Brendan had a nice pot pie at the Tavern at the Park during the staff dinner. It looked like someone had baked a baby into the pan, it was that big. |
| 9:56
| Authorities believe Amon Paul Carlock, aka Klutzo the Clown, died of natural causes from a pre-existing medical condition in prison. |
| 9:57
| Steve's looking at the Marie Callendar's info right now. It says it's 500 per serving but each pot pie might be two servings. That's where Steve got tripped up. Who's sharing their pot pies anyway? |
| 9:58
| This just in, initial reports said that Carlock died of natural causes but now it's coming out that he started to have problems after he was tased by a guard during a struggle. |
| 9:59
| Steve doesn't think the Klutzo the Clown from the Northwest suburbs will be retaking the Klutzo name, it's been sullied. |
