…I know every one is sharing the story, but I love the detail that the ump called a cop to help him eject the fans, and that the cop disagreed with the ump, but still assisted. I did not realize that, in the hierarchy of uniformed authority figures, police report to umps. (But, some how that makes perfect sense to me).

Also, The Visitors Locker Room, my sports comedy podcast with CJ Sullivan, starts a new schedule this week: Mondays and Fridays at 3 PM. We also have some fun segments planned for this week and special guests. Lastly, expect a big update on our podcast, which has been out-of-synch for a few weeks (sorry).

   It must be an Iowa thing Sean.

   My dad, also my High School principal, kicked out the crowd at a playoff basketball game for an organized chant that contained a swear word… He got on the mic and called everyone “jug-heads” and kicked us out.

   … I was a freshman at the time, this is one of the moments that I attribute my drinking problem to…

   “jug-heads”. That’s hilarious. I love when angry, old men try to call some one an idiot.

   ..The weekend I moved to Chicago, two guys where in the middle of a terrible crime spree. The FBI officer in charge was asked if he could describe the pair and he answered, “yeah, we are looking for a couple of real knuckle heads!”. He added nothing else. They had kidnapped a women and critically injured two other people. It was the most hilariously understated use of knuckle head I’ve seen.
