    I locked in on Cubs 5-1 to win the World Series for $500 today. I've seen enough tank mushes to know that when tank disses a line pretty hard like he did then it means it has a pretty good chance to win. So if the Mets(who tank picked to beat the Cubs) miss the playoffs and the Cubs win we all know who to thank.

    I fell for the same thing--after the Met game I had SNY on in the background and I didn't realize they were showing the Mets 2015 Yearbook Show.

    I happened to look up when Gary Apple announced the Wheeler report--they didn't "break into" any show lol--it was a pretaped highlight show. About 30 seconds later they started showing more clips and highlights from 2015--if you looked is had the logo at the bottom saying 2015 Mets Yearbook Show or some such thing.

    I was startled for about a minute until I realized what was on the freaking TV.

    But the dick was adamant like the pompous ass he is.

    I dislike how he talks to his production team. Especially when he's the one who fucks up. He digs into them deeper.

    Repeats himseld 75 fucking times....unbearable.

    I cut him off about three years ago. I used to love the prank call attempts. Once in a while they would get through. That was the best

    Callers now calling in asking him how he could have reported it and he keeps stammering how he straightened it out within "NINETY SECONDS!!"

    They still get through haha. If you are a dedicated prank caller you will find a way around the WFAN filter system.

    This is the season though where I listen to him the least. There's only so much Yankee/Met talk you can take if you are not a fan of either one. 99% of the show is Yankees/Mets from June till September. He doesn't do any Hockey or Basketbawl tawk.

    That was Bernard McGuirk making prank calls for Imus. He actually got Coleman with that. They laughed that they tricked Coleman being that Coleman was a drunk in their estimation, lol.

    He got Beningo one time really good late night/early morning. He called in as a fake caller saying he was really pissed at something Baningo said and started to threaten him that he was gonna wait for him to come out of the studio and kick his ass. Baningo started to get worried. It was hilarious

    The time he called in saying the NHL was racist because they were always hitting the puck and it was BLACK was off the charts.

    Well it's a little early but the tank mush is looking pretty good so far. Mets will not win more than 89 and the Cubs are in first place haha. Fucking Mike Zaun. It's faulty loooiiiinnne, it's a faulty looiiine, okay.

    I need to hedge my bet I'm not sure how much to bet on the Indians. I'd like to make at least a little bit. Would suck to get this close to winning a future bet and have nothing to show for it. If Kluber wasn't pitching I'd probably let it ride.
