Episode XXI- “HOPE SPRINGS ETERNAL“

YES WE ARE BACK AGAIN FOR ANOTHER YEAR WITH THE CUBS. IT IS SPRING TRAINING SEASON FOR THE CHICAGO CUBS IN ARIZONA. TICKET SALES AND OPTIMISM ARE AT A FEVER PITCH AROUND WRIGLEYVILLE. THERE IS PLENTY OF COMPETITION FOR STARTING SPOTS, WHICH HAS THE PATRONS OF WEAGHMAN’S PARK AT THE CORNER OF CLARK AND ADDISON TALKING CUBS NON STOP. WE ARE PAST THE PINELLA ERA AND ONTO THE QUADE ERA. WE ALL REMEMBER HOW WELL THE CUBS FARED AT THE END OF THE SEASON AFTER LOU STEPPED DOWN. BUT THE TALK DOESN’T STOP THERE. IT GOES INTO THE BLACKHAWKS, BEARS, AND OF COURSE THE BULLS. THE 20 SOMETHING WEAGHMAN’S PARK GANG HAS RETURNED INCLUDING WILL, KERI, JOSH, MELANIE, ELLIOTT, AND SAM. NO ONE HAS MARRIED YET AND THINGS ARE BEGINNING TO HAPPEN FOR ALL THESE DELAYED LAUNCHERS. WILL HAS A GROUND CREW JOB WITH THE CUBS. KERI IS STILL DOING SOCIAL WORK AND HAS NEARLY GIVEN UP ON MEN. JOSH DECIDED TO TAKE A PART TIME JOB DOING LEGAL WORK FOR THE BEARS – STILL WORKING PART TIME AT WEAGHMAN’S PARK. MELANIE, THE COOK COUNTY OR NURSE, AND SAM, THE FORMER HIGH SCHOOL FLAME THROWING QB, ARE NOW ENGAGED AND A WEDDING IS PLANNED LATER THIS YEAR. SAM STILL WORKS AS A TRAUMA ANESTHESIOLOGIST AT COOK COUNTY ON WEEKENDS - HIS PRO BONO “DOCTORS WITHOUT BORDERS” JOB IN THE UNITED STATES. ELLIOTT IS STARRING IN “THE BEST FRIGGIN TIME OF YOUR LIFE” AT SECOND CITY AND CONTINUING TO TEACH MIDDLE SCHOOL MUSIC. THE FOOD AT WEAGHMAN’S PARK IS STILL THE BEST WITH A WISCONSIN THEME ASSORTMENT OF ZUERCHER CHEESE FROM SKOKIE AND GREEN COUNTY, WISCONSIN. WHILE ON A CHEESE RECRUITING TRIP TO WISCONSIN, THE OWNER OF WEAGHMAN’S PARK DISCOVERED UNTAPPED SOURCES FROM GREEN COUNTY OF BLUMER’S ROOT BEER FROM MONROE AND NEW GLARUS BEER. THIS WILL COMPLEMENT THE SHEBOYGAN BRATS AND LEINENKUGEL BEER. FOLLOW ALONG AS THE NORTH SIDE OF CHICAGO 20 SOMETHINGS GET READY FOR THE CUBS 110TH SEASON - ALL STARTED BY CHARLIE WEAGHMAN – IN HIS MEMORY THE NOW 20 SOMETHING HANGOUT AT THE CORNER OF CLARK AND ADDISON. INTRODUCTION MARCH OF 2011 EVENING WITH INTENSE CUB DISCUSSION OCCURRING AMIDST A FEW BEERS AT WEAGHMAN’S PARK. THE ENTIRE 20 SOMETHING WEAGHMAN’S PARK GANG IS HERE. CUB OPTIMISM IS AT AN ALL TIME HIGH.

WILL I HEAR NOTHING BUT GOOD THINGS COMING FROM THE CUB CAMP. THE ARIZONA FALL LEAGUE AND WINTER LEAGUES IN THE CARIBBEAN WERE EXCELLENT FOR THE CUBBIES. COLVIN OR LAHAIR AT FIRST BASE,

CASTOR HITTING THE BRAINS OUT OF THE BALL, NEW ATTITUDE AND FIELDING SKILLS WITH SORIANO. DEMPSTER A CY YOUNG MAYBE?

JOSH I AM STRONGLY FEELING IT. WELLEMEYER’S PITCHING IN A STARTING ROLE WILL HELP US. EVEN KERI’S BOYFRIEND, SAMARDZIJA WHO WAS 11 - 3 WITH RYNO LAST YEAR IN IOWA, WILL HELP IN THE BULLPEN. I REALLY MISS LOU AND IF ANYBODY GAVE IT THE MAXIMUM EFFORT IT WAS LOU. KERI SO YOU ALL REALLY THINK THAT. I FEEL IT WAS TOO MUCH ABOUT LOU AND NOT ABOUT THE TEAM. LOOK AT ALL THE DUGOUT FIGHTS WE’VE HAD THE PAST FEW YEARS. SECOND TO LAST IN STEALING. AT LEAST QUADE WANTS TO MOVE RUNNERS. WE ARE SLOW BUT THERE IS TALK ABOUT EVEN RAMIREZ STEALING BASES. SAM WE JUST HAD ANOTHER FIGHT INVOLVING RAMIREZ THE OTHER DAY. THINGS HAVEN’T CHANGED MUCH THERE, BUT I DO LIKE THE FACT THAT WE ARE REALLY GETTING UP TO SNUFF WITH COMPETITION FOR SPOTS. IT WAS AS IF THE WRECKING CREW OF THE ORDER WAS GUARANTEED AT BATS WITHOUT PRODUCTION. MAYBE THE TYPICAL FIGHTS ONCE IN A WHILE IS WHAT THIS CLUB NEEDS!

Keri & Josh

MELANIE SO THINGS HAVEN’T CHANGED MUCH HERE AFTER ALL. THE DREADED SOX WILL STILL WIN THE SERIES WHICH IS IN ESSENCE THE WORLD SERIES FOR CHICAGO TEAMS. JOSH HOLD THE PHONE MELANIE. THE SOX STILL HAVE OZZIE AND I THINK IT’S TOUGH TO PLAY DOWN THERE FOR THE CUBS. MELANIE WHEN YOU WORK AT COOK COUNTY ALL YOU HEAR IS JUST PLAIN BASEBALL - THAT’S IT. THE DRAMA WITH OZZIE IS PART OF THE CULTURE DOWN THERE AND ALWAYS WILL BE. IT SEEMS THE PLAYERS ACTUALLY PLAY BALL DOWN THERE. UP NORTH IT IS AS IF YOU NEED TO PLAY SOMEWHAT DECENT, BUT IT’S ABOUT BEING A CELEBRITY TOO. THIS FORMULA DOESN’T WORK FOR CHAMPIONSHIP BALL. WILL SO MELANIE, WHEN DID YOU GET SO VERSED ON BASEBALL THEORY IN CHICAGO? SAM I THINK MEL IS ALL ABOUT SPORTS. GIRLS JUST HOLD IT ALL IN AND THEN LET IT OUT WHEN IT REALLY MATTERS. HANGING AROUND US ONE GETS TO BE AN EXPERT JUST BY OSMOSIS.

KERI THAT’S RATHER PATERNALISTIC SAM. I HOPE YOU CONTINUE ON THAT PATH SINCE YOU NOW HAVE YOUR REWARD - A LIFE WITH MELANIE. WILL KERI, YOU DIDN’T JUST MEAN WHAT YOU SAID - DID YOU? SAM AND MELANIE ARE ENGAGED TO BE MARRIED. I THINK YOU IMBIBED ONE TOO MANY LEINENKUGEL BEERS. KERI NO I MEANT IT. SINCE IT APPEARS I’M WELL ON MY WAY TO BEING AN OLD MAID THANKS TO YOU ALL, I FLAT OUT DON’T CARE ANYMORE. I’LL SAY WHAT I WANT. I MIGHT AS WELL BE THE NEIGHBORHOOD BITCH. MAYBE I’LL MOVE ONTO TUSCAY’S OR BERNIE’S. MELANIE I’M SORRY IT NEVER QUITE WORKED OUT WITH YOU AND SAM. THINGS ARE JUST MEANT TO BE THIS WAY. I THINK SAM LOOKED AT US IN COMPARISON AND DECIDED THAT I WAS FAR MORE ATTRACTIVE, HAD MORE MEANING FOR HIM, WAS A BETTER CHEF, AND HOME FAMILY VALUES ARE WHAT COUNTS. WE ARE NOT LIVING TOGETHER AS YOU TWO WERE. KERI SO ARE YOU PREGNANT YET MEL? MELANIE NO, BUT I DON’T THINK IT’S FAR AWAY. WE’RE DEEPLY IN LOVE AND KNOW EACH OTHER VERY WELL FROM MANY EVENINGS WORKING IN THE COOK OPERATING ROOMS. JOSH I DO FEEL WE ALL NEED TO BE CIVIL. YES, WE’VE HAD OUR DIFFERENCES, BUT AGAIN GETTING TOGETHER OVER CUB GAMES AND CHICAGO SPORTS IS OUR PASSION. LET’S LEAVE THE RELATIONSHIPS AND POLITICS TO THE DISCUSSIONS ON THE L TRAINS. WILL AGREED. LOOK I’M NOT MARRIED AND I’M HANDLING IT WELL. I HAVE ADHD AND NO GIRL WILL COME WITHIN 60 FEET 6 INCHES - THE LENGTH OF THE HOME PLATE TO PITCHER’S MOUND. ELLIOTT AND I HAVEN’T FIGURED OUT IF I LIKE MEN OR WOMEN BETTER. I DO KNOW I LIKE THE CUBS EVER SINCE WE STARTING HANGING HERE AT WEAGHMAN’S PARK. I’M DEALING WITH ALL THIS. KERI OK JOSH, DO I HAVE TO DO YOUR JOB AGAIN FOR YOU THIS YEAR. THESE GUYS WANT A PITCHER OF LEINE’S WINTER STUFF, THE 1888 BOCK, AND A PICTURE OF SPOTTED COW, THE NEW GLARUS BEER. 4

AND THE GAL IN THE CORNER WANTS A BLUMERS AND THE GREEN COUNTY ZUERCHER’S CHEESE PLATE. MY GOD THAT WILL PUT 10 POUNDS ON A GAL IN ONE SITTING.

WILL HAVE YOU HAD THAT BLUMERS ROOT BEER FROM GREEN COUNTY YET KERI? KERI NO - I’M TOO HUNG UP ON THE ORIGINAL LEINES BEER. REMEMBER I’M A TOM BOY, SO I’M KINDA LIKE YOU GUYS - MAYBE EXCEPTING ELLIOTT. ELLIOTT NO, I’M A REAL GUY KERI. MY MIDDLE SCHOOL BAND IS JUST FANTASTIC AND I’VE LANDED A LEAD ROLE IN THE UPCOMING PLAY DOWNTOWN, “BEST FRIGGIN TIME OF YOUR LIFE” AT SECOND CITY. JOSH MAYBE I’LL QUIT WORKING HERE AND JUST BE A PATRON. NOW THAT I’M SLOWLY LAUNCHING. THE LEGAL WORK HAS BEEN GOOD FOR ME. THE BEARS LEGAL TEAM HAS ME ON THE GO ALL THE TIME. PLENTY OF ISSUES WITH PLAYER SALARIES, CONTRACTS, BENEFITS, AND MEDICAL BILLS. SAM SO WHAT IS THE SCOOP ON CUTLER? DID HE THROW THE NFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME, OR WHAT REALLY HAPPENED? JOSH CUTLER HAD A GRADE TWO LIGAMENT SPRAIN OF THE KNEE. IF HE PLAYED AND INJURED IT FURTHER THE TEAM DOCTORS WERE WORRIED ABOUT A CARTILAGE AND ACL TEAR. YES - I KNOW EVERY KID IN CHICAGO SAYS AFTER THEY ARE HURT AND SITS THAT THEY ARE PULLING A CUTLER. KERI BUT HE HAS SUCH A STRONG ARM, AND HE IS ELIGIBLE. SO WHAT IF HE CAN’T PLAY HURT - IT WAS THE TEAM DOC WHO TOLD HIM TO SIT. THANK GOD WE HAVE THE THIRD STRINGER, HANIE. MELANIE I WAS DISAPPOINTED IN THE ENTIRE TEAM. THE BEARS WERE BEAT BEFORE THEY EVEN SET FOOT ON THE FIELD. THE PACKERS WERE UNBELIEVABLY PREPARED FOR THE NFC TITLE GAME. RODGERS WAS IN TIMING AND ON HIS GAME. IN FACT THE GAME WASN’T EVEN CLOSE IF A COUPLE GUYS HADN’T DROPPED TOUCHDOWN PASSES. SAM SINCE WHEN DID YOU GET TO KNOW SO MUCH ABOUT GREEN BAY MEL?

MELANIE LET’S JUST SAY BEFORE YOU CAME BACK INTO THE PICTURE SAM, THERE WAS A GUY FROM LACROSSE I MET AND HE KNEW A TON MORE ABOUT THE PACKERS THAN ANYONE. JOSH IT’S NO BIG DEAL SAM. EVERYONE UP BEYOND THE BORDER KNOWS EVERYTHING ABOUT THE PACK - EVEN THE WATERBOY ON THE TEAM IS A CELEBRITY. SAM I GET THAT. IN FACT IT SEEMS THE CHICAGO CROWD KNOWS MORE ABOUT THE PACKERS. BUT I DIDN’T EVEN KNOW THIS LACROSSE GUY. ELLIOTT IF YOU ARE NOT FORMALLY MARRIED, THEN ALL BETS ARE OFF REGARDING RELATIONSHIPS. I SECOND THAT.

KERI

SAM AS IF ELLIOTT IS AN EXPERT ON RELATIONSHIPS. GIVE ME A BREAK. MELANIE LOOK SAM. IT WAS NO BIG DEAL. IF YOU GUYS ARE NOT STEPPING UP TO THE PLATE, THEN THE GALS ARE FLAT OUT LOOKING ELSEWHERE. WE ALL HAVE BIOLOGICAL CLOCKS THAT TICK CONSTANTLY. MY EGGS ARE MORE THAN MATURE ENOUGH. I’M READY FOR QUADRUPLETS. ELLIOTT I AGREE. GUYS NEED TO MAKE DECISIONS. I’M IN THE SAME BOAT. I CANNOT MAKE DECISIONS HOWEVER BECAUSE OF MY GENDER DYSPHORIA - OR THE FACT THAT I CANNOT DECIDE WHETHER TO LIKE GUYS OR GALS. THUS I LIKE THEM BOTH. JOSH EXCUSE ME WEAGHMAN’S PARK 20 SOMETHING GANG. I’VE GOT A PITCHER OF LEINIE’S 1888 BOCK TO GET BACK TO THOSE GUYS FROM KENOSHA. THEY ARE ALWAYS IN HERE AND USUALLY ORDER NOTHING BUT ZUERCHER CHEESE PLATES. THEY ARE PICKY AND NOW ONLY WANT THE WISCONSIN ZUERCHER CHEESE PLATES. KENOSHA GUYS SAY THERE IS A DIFFERENCE. MOST OF THE FOLKS FROM CHICAGO WANT THE ZUERCHERS FROM CHICAGO CHEESE PLATES. I CANNOT FIGURE IT OUT. KERI IT SEEMS THE PATRONS OF WEAGHMAN’S PARK WANT TO SUPPORT THE LOCAL ECONOMY. IN FACT I WAS AT A PARTY THE OTHER NIGHT DOWN NEAR THE SOX STADIUM WITH ONE OF MY CLIENTS. THEY ORDERED IN NOTHING BUT ZUERCHER PLATES OF CHEESE AND MEATS. 6

I ASKED WHERE DID YOU GET THE IDEA, AND THEY SAID FROM WEAGHMAN’S PARK!

SAM I’M STILL NOT GETTING THIS PACKER FAN FROM LACROSSE MEL. WHEN DID THAT ALL OCCUR? KERI CHILL SAM. YOU ARE ONLY GETTING WHAT YOU DESERVE. I WOULD’VE DATED THE GUY TOO SINCE YOU WRIGLEYVILLE TYPES JUST CANNOT TIE THE KNOT. JOSH ARE WE GETTING OFF TRACK OR WHAT? I THOUGHT WE WERE TO COME HERE AND GET EXCITED ABOUT THE CUBS NEW SEASON THAT STARTS WITHIN A MONTH. I CANNOT WAIT. WILL I CAN TELL EVERYONE AS A MEMBER OF THE GROUNDS CREW THAT THERE IS ELECTRICITY AT WRIGLEY. I LIKED LOU, HOWEVER THIS TEAM JUST COULDN’T PRODUCE. GETTING RID OF SOME NON PRODUCTIVE PLAYERS AND THE ADDITION OF SOME STEP-UP-TO-THE-PLATE GUYS ON A REGULAR BASIS IN THE OUTFIELD LIKE BYRD, COLVIN, AND MONTANEZ WILL IMPROVE THE CUBS TREMENDOUSLY. FUKUDOME IS SLOW BUT STEADY. I’D BET ON LAHAIR AT FIRST - BUT AGAIN THERE IS TALK OF COLVIN PLAYING THERE FOR SPEED. IT WILL BE AN ACCOUNTING DAY TO DAY WITH Q. KERI AND DON’T FORGET OUR RELIEVER, MARMOL. HE CAN PRODUCE BIG IF HE IS MOTIVATED. THAT COMES DOWN TO COACHING. I’M NOT CONVINCED THAT ST. LOUIS WILL BE OUR PROBLEM THIS YEAR. I FEEL IT’S CINCY. THE CARDINALS, THOUGH STILL OUR MORTAL ENEMY, ARE ON THE DECLINE. SOTO WILL TAKE CARE OF THEM BEHIND THE PLATE. ELLIOTT IT IS QUITE CLEAR FROM THE COACHES AND THE FAN OWNER WE HAVE THAT THE ACCOUNTING HAS TO BE FROM THE TOP DOWN. THE OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT WILL SUPPORT THIS TEAM. SOMEHOW WE HAVE TO BE COMPETITIVE - WHICH WE HAVE NOT BEEN CONSISTENTLY IN YEARS. JOSH DOESN’T EVERYONE FEEL Z HAS BEEN AN UNDER PERFORMER, AND SOME FEEL HE IS A WASTE AND TAKES AWAY FROM THE TEAM CONCEPT THAT MANAGEMENT WANTS TO INSTALL. MELANIE I FULLY AGREE. THERE IS A TEAM ASPECT AROUND THE SOX THAT THE CUBS HAVE LACKED. AS YOU KNOW WORKING AT COOK WITH GLENDA

AND DR. HANSON I’M MORE UP ON THE SOX THAN ANY OTHER TEAM EXCEPTING THE BULLS.

SAM THE SOX ARE WAY OVER THEIR HEAD. IT ISN’T THAT THEY BEAT THE CUBS YEAR AFTER YEAR, IT IS THE FACT THAT THE CUBS BLOW GAMES THEY SHOULD EASILY WIN. JOSH YOU MAY BE CORRECT ON THAT. BUT LOOK AT THE NL CENTRAL. IT IS STUFFED WITH GOOD TALENT. NO BAD TEAMS. IN FACT THE BREWERS NORTH OF THE BORDER FEEL THEY CAN BEAT ANYONE. THIS IS THEIR BIG CHANCE AS FIELDER WILL CERTAINLY BE A FREE AGENT, AND SIGN WITH A BIG MONEY TEAM THIS SUMMER WITH A TRADE MOST PROBABLY. ELLIOTT YOU NEVER KNOW. PRINCE IS HAPPY IN BEER TOWN. THEY MAY ANTE UP FOR HIM AS HE’S PRETTY POPULAR UP THERE. WILL I COULD EASILY SEE THAT. I DON’T SEE PRINCE IN A CUB UNIFORM, THOUGH WOULDN’T MIND IT. HE SEEMS LIKE A TEAM LEADER AND A TOTAL TEAM GUY. WE NEED THAT. I DON’T EVEN THINK SOME OF OUR GUYS EVEN KNEW THE URGENCY OF NEEDING TO HIT - OR EVEN WHAT INNING IT WAS WHEN THEY WERE UP. MAYBE TOO MUCH MONEY.

KERI

ELLIOTT LOOK, I’M AN ENTERTAINER, AND GUYS NEED WHATEVER CASH THEY CAN GET. TALENT CAN BE FLEETING AND IF THE PUBLIC IS WILLING TO PAY FOR IT, SO BE IT. LOTS OF ENTERTAINERS ARE UNEMPLOYED FOR LONG PERIODS. I FLAT OUT KNOW AS AN ACTOR. JOSH WE GET IT ELLIOTT. IT’S JUST THAT THE CUBS ARE ONE OF THE TOP 3 TEAMS IN PAID OUT INCOME. WE ARE ONE OF THE LEAST PRODUCING TEAMS DESPITE THE HIGH SALARIES. THAT HAS TO CHANGE. IF WE GO CHEAP, THEN WE GET CHEAP, NO ONE COMES TO GAMES, AND THE REALLY GOOD PLAYERS MOVE ON. WILL I CAN TELL YOU FROM THE GROUNDS CREW PERSPECTIVE THAT WE DON’T WANT A MINOR LEAGUE TEAM SHOWING UP AT WRIGLEY. THE FANS HERE DESERVE NOTHING LESS THAN A CHAMPIONSHIP CALIBER TEAM. IT GOES WAY BACK TO THE TURN OF THE LAST CENTURY WITH CHARLIE WEAGHMAN AND WRIGLEY.

ELLIOTT THERE HAVE BEEN SO MANY “WAIT UNTIL NEXT YEAR” GENERATIONS OF CUB FANS. TONS OF ORGANIZATIONS FROM PLAYER CLUBS LIKE SANTO, THE VINE CLUB, AND ALL THE BLEACHER BUMS FROM YEARS PAST. THIS IS A LARGE FAMILY THAT IS OVER 100 YEARS OLD. JOSH EXCUSE ME - THESE GUYS BACK THERE ARE REALLY TRYING TO TASTE EVERYTHING. NOW THEY WANT THE NEW GLARUS LIGHT GIRL TYPE BREW, TOTALLY NAKED. KERI WHY ON EARTH WOULD THEY CALL IT THAT? THAT IS A WEIRD NAME FOR A BEER, BUT I GUESS IT SELLS - EVEN TO GUYS. MELANIE I’VE HAD NAKED AND IT’S REALLY VERY GOOD. IT MADE ME TAKE THE RED LINE HOME ONE NIGHT. SAM I REMEMBER THAT NIGHT. IT WAS TOUGH TO GET TO WORK THE NEXT DAY. MUST HAVE BEEN AFTER THE PACKER GUY LEFT YOU. WILL WOW, RELATIONSHIPS ARE REALLY TOUGH OUT THERE THESE DAYS. MAN, I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE EVEN SOMEONE SHOOT A FEW MISSILES AT ME - IT’S BETTER THAN NO ACTION AT ALL. ELLIOTT YOU’RE DOING OK FOR YOURSELF. WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE UNITED FLIGHT ATTENDANT - THE ONE YOU RODE WITH TO O’HARE ON THE L EVERYDAY FOR A WHILE. WILL OH SHE DUMPED ME. THEY ALL DUMP ME WHEN THEY FIND OUT I DIDN’T FINISH CHICAGO COMMUNITY COLLEGE AFTER NORTHERN ILLINOIS AFTER PURDUE. IF YOU HAVE ADHD YOU DON’T STAND A CHANCE WITH GALS. THEIR MOTHERS RECOMMEND THEM NOT MARRYING DUE TO GENETICS. KERI I WOULDN’T CARE ABOUT THAT STUFF. IF A GUY IS CUTE AND NICE WELL THAT CINCHES IT. MELANIE I AGREE AND IT’S PROBABLY THE ONLY THING KERI AND I AGREE ON. ONE IS GRADED IN LIFE BY THEIR ACTIONS. SO WHAT IF YOU CAN’T COMPLETE COLLEGE - NOT EVERYONE CAN OR SHOULD. GALS JUST WANTED TO BE TREATED LIKE GALS. CHIVALRY IS STILL IN. WE ALSO WANT KIDS, AN SUV, CHURCH, GOOD SCHOOLS, AND THE MOST HOUSE ONE CAN AFFORD. THAT’S ALL. 9

JOSH IT CERTAINLY DOESN’T SEEM THAT WAY WHEN YOU DATE THESE GALS. I GUESS I’VE RUN INTO THE WRONG GIRLS. MOST OF THE GALS I’VE MET ARE FROM ABOVE THE BORDER, AND THEY ARE SUSPICIOUS OF ANYTHING IN CHICAGO - ESPECIALLY A CRAZY CUB MBA/LAW FAN WHO CANNOT LAUNCH. ELLIOTT YOU’RE LAUNCHED ENOUGH JOSH - I MEAN LEGAL COUNSEL FOR THE BEARS? MELANIE I CAN’T IMAGINE THE SUITS THEY BRING UP. THIS PACKER GUY BEFORE SAM WAS AN ATTORNEY FOR MILLER BREWERY - AND THE SUITS HE HAD TO DEFEND WERE UNBELIEVABLE. SAM IF I HEAR ABOUT THIS PACKER BOYFRIEND AGAIN MEL, WE ARE NEEDING SOME EXTRA COUNSELING. WILL CHILL AGAIN SAM. SHE’S JUST HAD A COUPLE. YOU’RE NOT MARRIED YET. IT’S NO BIG DEAL. TRUST ME. JOSH GETTING BACK TO MY JOB AS BEARS COUNSEL, YES I’VE LAUNCHED. THE SUITS THAT CAME IN AFTER THE NFL CHAMPIONSHIP GAME WITH GREEN BAY WERE UNREAL. WE HAD FANS WANTING THEIR MONEY BACK FOR CUTLER SITTING OUT THE SECOND HALF. ELLIOTT A FRIEND OF MINE WHO JUST MOVED IN FROM DENVER SAYS YOU GET THE STRONGEST THROWING ARM IN THE LEAGUE WITH JAKE, BUT YOU ALSO GET A TON OF BAGGAGE WITH IT. SAD THAT JAKE HAD TO SIT AND MOAN AND NOT CHEER ON THE REST OF THE TEAM LIKE THE INJURED PACKERS INCLUDING WOODSON THAT REALLY DID CHEER FOR HIS TEAMMATES. SAM JOSH, WHO IS THAT GUY IN THE CORNER DRINKING THE LEINE’S ORIGINAL? JOSH IT’S WRIGLEY’S GHOST RIGHT HERE IN WEAGHMAN’S PARK. NO KIDDING! END - CLARK AND ADDISON XXI
