I love how they are promoting the fact they have the national broadcast for Cubs coverage. They did this last year as well and WSCR got upset because this was successful in siphoning off a measurable amount of would be listeners.  Well done guys! WSCR may have spent $10 million for the Cubs, but they still don't have exclusive rights to broadcast a playoff game. |

This year it should be a million or so less than that. And then ESPN adds insult to financial injury.

It is unbelievable that I am rooting for ESPN over the Score given my inherent hatred of all things ESPN. But yes, give it up for Disney on this one. |

I thought the national call was blacked out in the local markets. Guess not. I know the local call is blacked out everywhere but the flagships. |

It's weird cause Walt Disney really hated Jews too. |
