I like the loops and the corkscrews, and I don't mind riding that.

I'm just saying I'm riding the roller coaster in a very different manner.

I'm on the same ride as you, Grody, but my hands aren't up in the front seat.

Is that okay?

No, that's okay.

Actually, I don't think we all need to be.

You are our cooler, and I mean that in a good way.

I am not here ripping you because I admit that I need people in my life around me that are not riding the roller coaster.

Outside of the car.

cubs i'm here to tell you what a grody just said is absolutely true and i'm happy to be one of those people as part of your support system in life just in life just getting you through the highs and the lows and saying hey if you don't have that low you won't appreciate the high as much oh man that is so true um i do have a question for you let me build up to because one of the stars of this series was and there there are a lot and we'll talk about it throughout the day we get some good five-minute questions

pertaining to the Cubs and who your MVP was and all of that.

But it's nice to be able to give credit to the manager, Craig Council.

And I say that because it's very easy to, just in general, rip the coach in whatever sport it is.

And the manager is fun to question, fun to question lineups, fun to question a guy who's making $8 million a year and perceive mistakes that he's made through the years.

And we are

Quick to point those out.

It's what we do, and we'll continue to do that.

But this was a really good series for Craig Council.

There were things that you could see him do throughout the series that were just good managerial moves, such as... Well, even I'll just go from yesterday.

Small thing, but Ian Happ in that sixth inning...
