Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
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, Harris, and Grody may change at any time. It's just sports. Okay, thanks, bye.
Rahimi Harrison-Grody. 10-2 on 104.3 The Score.
The issue is basketball has changed because sports and our attention span has changed.
And the way we as society have made it a rings-or-nothing culture.
Mm-hmm.
Teams are now gearing to make sure that their guys are healthy for the postseason, and they're not as concerned with the regular season.
And why should they be? They tried to change the minimum number of games played for all the NBA honors, whether it's MVP, Ricky of the Year, All-NBA.
That hasn't worked. Our company is worth nothing. That's the difference between you and I. Business isn't about money to me, David. If tomorrow my company goes under, I will just start another paper company and then another and another and another. I have no shortage of company names.
I saw a suggestion like you take away the three point line. It's like that would bother me because it's like, bro, no, that idea is terrible. What do you want to do, Russ? Tell me how you want to change basketball. Yes. Oh, you wanted to get physical again. A little bit more.

Chapter 2: What high expectations did Tom Ricketts set for the Cubs in 2026?
We back up.
That's right, baby. We back up.
I need you to know. I get back up.
Is that what you guys are doing? I had the idea of doing a segment. We'll take you behind the scenes real quick. Backstage, Grody. Yeah, yeah. Now I understand. I had an idea to do the we back up rankings, you know, from the wire.
I want you to put the word out there that we back up. Oh. Understand me?
We back up. That was inspired by the Alex Bregman signing, really. But then the Bulls went and bowled.
Don't worry about that right now. We back up, baby! Also, let's face it. The Bulls had to get rid of some of those contracts. They actually got something for them, which is a change. So guess what they did according to their plan? They got up. Not back up.
I get knocked down, but I get up again.
You know who else kind of said that? You know who else put the word out there? This is really what Ricketts was kind of doing yesterday. Because he knows, we'll hold him to this standard now. And when you see Tom Ricketts, you'll be like, hey, why didn't you spend the extra money to get Zach Gallin or something along those lines?

Chapter 3: How did the Cubs' playoff experience influence their spending strategy?
They even worked yesterday for you. What? Not for me. I took the day off.
You guys worked yesterday?
Yeah.
Oh, yeah. Yeah, we were here. You guys feel pretty good about yourselves, don't you? We're grinding. We're grinding.
I'm going to need you two to treat yourselves with some time later, just from me to you.
Did you guys talk presidents yesterday? Oh, we did our Mount Rushmore presidents, our own Mount Rushmore, not the official Mount Rushmore.
Millard Fillmore you mix in or something just to make it different.
There you go. That Obama guy is from Chicago.
Yeah, that's right. And he talked at the All-Star game, didn't he?

Chapter 4: Why is 2026 considered a must-win year for the Cubs?
Vice versa. Who's winning first, the Cubs or the Bears? They're kind of on a similar trajectory all of a sudden.
Prior to 2016, what would you have said?
Ooh, that's really good. Hmm.
Because for one team, it was still 85. And for the Cubs, it had been 108 years. There was no all coming back to them now.
Let's say 2014, because that's a bad time for both the Cubs and the Bears.
It was dark times.
Those were, yes. It was before both got better. Well, the Bears took a little while. Cubs got better the next year in 2015. So who would have I thought then?
Wait for it.
Probably the Cubs somehow, some way.
