The Beachwood Radio Sports Hour #45: The Kris Byrant Pundit Trap
If Kris Bryant's demotion is about service time, Theo is lying to reporters - and they're going along with the lie instead of calling him out for it. If it's not about service time, our genius commentariat is not only getting the story wrong, but defending Theo for something he isn't doing because he agrees with the fans they are calling dolts.
Plus: The Easier, Cheaper, Better White Sox; Deja Derrick Rose; Patrick Kane Is Derrick Rose In An Alternate Universe; Sports Economics For Dummies; We Thank Roberto Garza For His Service; Go Sparty! Fuck 'Em Bucky!; and Chicago Fire Averaging A Goal A Week!
