How is the Cubs' offense starting to turn around?
the score this hour is sponsored by the views and opinions of layla rahimi marshall harris and mark grody should not be taken too seriously especially when they give advice do not take marshall's analogies literally especially when it comes to russell dorsey the sports thoughts of rahimi harrison grody may change at any time it's just sports okay thanks bye Rahimi Harrison-Grody, 10-2 on 104.3 The Score.
Now he's just out here hobnobbing with celebrities. Danny Parkins, first things first on Fox Sports 1. Hey, Danny, how are you?
I'm not going to be in your way, honey.
I'm going to be too busy hobnobbing with my buddy. Are you hobnobbing if they're just responding to your tweets and dunking on you for bad takes? I don't know if that's hobnobbing.
Oh, no. You are so close to hobnobbing. I thoroughly enjoyed it.
What strategies are opposing teams using against the Cubs?
No, you're hobnobbing on the internet. You're communicating. I bet there's a lot of people who Ben Stiller hasn't texted back.
You got him to end his tweet, his subtweet to you and sign it Focker. That is amazing. Brody, that was my favorite part of it too. Oh, beautiful.
If I go down, Greg, I need to know someone will be responsible for the whole Burns clan. So I ask you, Greg, are you prepared to be the God Focker?
The Godfucker. The Godfucker. It was very cool. I'm thrilled for Ben Stiller and all Knicks fans. New York is just jumping right now. It's a basketball town, first and foremost. So it's been pretty exciting out here.
It turns out Ben Stiller is awesome and a fun sports fan. This is as good as it gets. What is this? A center for ants?
What is this?
A center for ants?
What? How can we be expected to teach children to learn how to read if they can't even fit inside the building?
I mean, the guy's got one of the all-time filmographies and is a genuine Knicks fan and genuinely thinks I'm an idiot.
Mazel you two.
Whatever it takes, Parkins, to get the attention, man, even if it's at the expense of you being an idiot.
He might be an idiot savant, but he's not, like, clever enough to go that deep.
Layla Rahimi, Marshall Harris, Mark Grody. Midday's 10 a.m.
What does Mark Sweeney think about the upcoming Cubs-Cardinals series?
to 2 on Chicago Sports Radio 104.3 The Score.
It's Friday, May 57th. I have no idea what's happening with this month. This is usually Memorial Day weekend, but it's not because the 1st of June is on a Monday. Pay your rent, and in the meantime, hang out with us. This is Rahimi Harrison-Grody on 104.3 The Score. We get a Game 7 in the Western Conference Finals. Maybe Danny can upset some Oklahoma City Thunder fans or some Spurs fans with his next take and leave Ben Stiller out of this.
Are there any famous fans of Oklahoma City or San Antonio that jump to your head right away?
Matt Kemp? Does he count?
No, he doesn't.
He was a big Thunder fan.
Well, that's great, but that's an athlete.
How did the Cubs perform against the Pirates before facing the Cardinals?
So I am talking about Ben Stiller-esque, Fokker-type of celebrities, okay?
As Danny appropriately put it yesterday, Mark, that's a big deal. It's a huge deal. He rattled off his luminaries of entertainment. And Ben Stiller, both for his acting, his producing, and his writing, is incredibly high up there.
Do you know this song?
Wade Goodman. Nobody makes me bleed my own blood.
Oh, yeah. No, he's right.
Cramming up your cram hole, LaFleur.
Those movies are definitely in my wheelhouse as well.
There was a time... Where you at, Matt LaFleur? Are you enjoying some vacation somewhere? No, he's probably at OTAs, too.
I mean, that's got to start soon, the trolling of Matt LaFleur. When are we going to get our first troll? It's got to happen soon. There was a time here at the score years ago when I was just kind of doing part-time work at the score when Meet the Parents first came out, and I was so into using the word Focker that people— Yeah, I'm sure you were. My nickname was Focker. People called me Focker, and I called everybody that I saw Focker around the radio station. So I know there's some people listening right now who might remember the Mark Grody, Fokker era of the score. It was a real thing.
And this was also clearly before you could rip video and then repost the content online and perhaps alter it in ways that would get us in trouble with the FCC.
