Am I mistaken, or didn't I hear Fab Five Freddy Kirsh go his usual delusional route with sticking with The Pats come Hell or high water?
I'll tell ya, those 1/2 hour convoluted stances Fred takes where Portly Paul Perillo spends half their lunch hour trying to convince him otherwise is some spazzed out webradio. Yeah, but Paul never sways Fred because, well, in the middle of the arguments, if you listen really closely, you'll notice Fred will change his stance and start arguing from both sides. It's the whackest thing you'll ever hear. I've never come across anybody like that.
And then there's juvenile Andy feigning ignorance whenever he says anything inappropriate. Plus, then there's Erik, the just miserable, Erik Scalavino. He's like Eyore from Whinny The Poo. He comes lumbering in late 'cause they deem him low man on the totem pole and send him off to do the legwork around Gillette's grounds.
Today, the over-under was more about whether Erik is gonna get laid anytime soon rather than on The Miami game. Erik called off the discussion because he says he's given up. (I think. Well, that was the vibe anyway.)
Btw, that show would blow without Scalavino. You see, if he's not there, then you have 3 jock writers talking shop for 2 hours. Whenever Erik lumbers in late, you can actually hear the other three pep up a little. Erik is the guy who actually has interests outside the sports world. He's the straw that stirs the otherwise stagnant drink.
So, kudos to Scalavino.
(yeah, and a hearty razzing raspberry for cantankerous Andy Hart. Just kidding. Well, not al the way kidding. so nyah... Andy Panda.)
