 Alex Boyajian (Chaotically Intolerant, Gridiron Chaos) returns to discuss whether Die Hard is a Christmas movie, our thoughs on Mike Leach, the post-Xander Bogaerts Red Sox, free agency's ebb and flow, an article from Rolling Stone magazine and the pros and cons of getting mixed up with the Kardashian family. Alex was our guest in Episode 122 and we were happy he agreed to return to talk baseball and more.

The Rolling Stone article is: Andy Greene, "The Fifty Worst Decisions in Music History," Rolling Stone, November 28, 2022.

Errata: Mike Leach was 9-3 against Texas A&M. Since 2019, Stephen Strasberg has 8 starts, a 1-4 record, a 6.68 ERA. He has been paid $105M (before the Covid-19 short season adjustment) and has $140M to go on his contract the next four seasons. Jose Abreu hit 30 home runs in 2021, not 33; and he hit 15 home runs in 2022, not 15. Great White and Whitesnake played Rice Stadium in Houston TX in July 1988. Elvis Presley died August 16, 1977. Reggie Bush is an on-air football analyst for Fox Sports - he dated Kim Kardashian at one time. The new Kardashian TV show is called "The Kardashians."

EPISODE 92: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN

A-Block (1:46) SPECIAL COMMENT: Their response to the extraction of Brittney Griner - unpatriotic, simple-minded, the Real-World-Is-Just-A-Fantasy-Basketball-League-And-You-Made-A-Bad-Trade - has not only reaffirmed that Republicans ARE stupid, but it has also underscored that when a glimmer of smart might sneak through, Republicans will deliberately pretend to be even more stupid, to appeal to their stupid base full of stupid people. Some are born stupid, some achieve stupidity, and some have stupidity thrust upon them. (3:50) Trump's stupid statement stupidly reminded people how HE failed to rescue Paul Whelan; Marjorie Greene's reminded people she wants to give the Russians not just an arms dealer but Ukraine. (10:00) I truly believe this is a choice: their stupidity is a language all its own, a reverse-superiority, an indecipherable code, impervious to logic or intelligence (11:28) And it was the Lutheran Pastor Dietrich Bonhoeffer, from the depths of a Nazi concentration camp after the failure of the plot he participated in to kill; Hitler, who observed "Stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of the good than malice."

B-Block (18:58) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY: Moon, in New York (19:57) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: DOJ insists Trump is still hiding documents, wants lawyers cited for contempt; Who the 1/6 Committee will refer criminally (22:45) IN SPORTS: Late baseball signings, and why would an NFL team even think about signing a 49-year old receiver? (24:36) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Jim Jordan denies the tweet he tweeted, Eric Trump Trumps, and Paul Gosar's spokesman is so confident in him, he won't give the press his name.

C-Block (29:35) FRIDAYS WITH THURBER: My Dad's favorite, Thurber's story of the school in which some students repeated the 4th Grade a dozen times and the baseball team was good enough to beat Ohio State: "I Went To Sullivant."

After 294 days #brittneygriner is coming home.  
@emmanuelacho you played in the @nfl for two years and you don’t have to defend your career vs #austinekeler EVER. People on #twitter with their #socialmedia muscles. Fudge ‘em.  
@redsox loss is @padres gain. #xanderbogaerts 11-$280M and that lineup is stacked after making #nlcs this year. 
 @buffalosabres #tagethompson 4 goals in period, five for game.  Had 6 points on night in 9-4 win over @bluejacketsnhl for second time this #nhl season.  
How about the #hurley brothers. Bobby has @sundevilhoops 9-1 & Danny has @uconnmbb 10-0 this #collegebasketball season so far.

Alex and Jesse offer their musings on the sports world with a teaspoon of nonsense as they discuss Cal Peterson's demotion to the AHL (0:50), and how the New Jersey Devils are actually good again (4:43). They applaud Mitch Marner's record breaking point streak (10:44), and Jason Robertson's epic rise to stardom (12:45). The guys also talk Don Mattingly becoming the Blue Jays' new skipper (16:18), and Jacob deGrom's new contract with Texas (20:34). They finish with their Qualin and Schooler Awards (24:48), and play Start-Bench-Cut focused on pre-game meals (30:11).

ESPN’s Tim Kurkjian returns to Blair and Barker to reflect on Hall of Fame weekend in Cooperstown where he was honoured with the BBWAA Career Excellence Award. He also comments on why now is the best time for the Nationals to trade Juan Soto, and the predicament the Boston Red Sox find themselves in following their recent stretch and the unknown futures of Rafael Devers and Xander Bogaerts (03:39). The guys then focus in on Jeff Passan’s latest report on the Blue Jays being amongst the teams interested in starting pitchers Luis Castillo and Frankie Montas; and discuss Carlos Rodon’s bat-kicking incident in Barker’s Back Leg Bits (26:27).

We’ve got a position player pitching! Patti is out with the plague which counts as down by 6 runs, so West Coast Correspondent Deborah joins Pottymouth and her Jamesons-spiked coffee for this week’s show.

We give a rundown on notable Pride month actions including Tampa Bay using the Progress Pride symbol (which is inclusive of black and brown and trans people) but leaving it to an “individual decision by players” as to wearing it or not. The Dodgers celebrate their 9th Glenn Burke Day, wearing pride hats on the field for the first time.  On June 11th, for Pride Day at Oracle Park, the Giants and Dodgers will be the first teams to jointly wear their progress pride hats on the field at same time. The Blue Jays get a nod for availability of gender-neutral bathrooms and donations to a local organization working with their staff on diversity and inclusion. Again the Yankees say “We don’t do any theme nights” and the Texas Rangers are silent.

Meanwhile, the Ohio’s GOP-led house snuck language mandating a verification process for “suspected” trans athletes into an unrelated bill. This subjects any school athlete suspected of being trans to an external and internal examination. This horrific proposal affects everyone and could happen anywhere. It's everyone's responsibility to fight it so vote accordingly. Let the kids play.

Patti’s Nats bf Lane Thomas has a 3 home run game, and former bf Willians Astudillo not only stole a base on May 28, but then pitched a scoreless inning vs the Giants. Former bf (and current West Coast Correspondent bf) Joc Pederson’s 3 home run game, was capped by a single leading to a walk-off win. What lead to his all time great hitting game?  Joc says “Barry Bonds was at the park and I talked to him for an hour.” Tommy Pham calls Mike Trout the worst commissioner in fantasy sports, which proves that Patti is better than Mike Trout with the possible exception of hitting and fielding (although we don’t know that for sure). Xander Bogaerts broke the record for games played at short for Red Sox at 1094.  Give the longest tenured player on the team the C!

Patreon supporter Bryan Jones uses his power for good to remind us all to watch the NCAA College Baseball Tournament. We share his LSU-centric thoughts including players to watch citing sexy defense and exceptional qHar, yet still manage to work in a go Terps! And a Buster Posey mention. Our fantasy league acted locally to punish Aaron Judge for denigrating OPACY. The Kids made their one and only trade ever to rid themselves of the perp, with the Leftovers promising to keep him on the bench.

We say  “All purpose reactionary” “Tampa Bay is the least objectionable part of Florida,” and “Life changing pep talk without wearing pants.”

World Series Champion and Marquee Sports Network analyst Ryan Dempster discusses Fergie Jenkins being honoured at Wrigley Field last weekend, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. going up against Shohei Ohtani, and different rallying points for struggling teams during a season (02:29). Afterwards, NESN’s Tony Massarotti talks about the surging Red Sox and Trevor Story turning his season around after an abysmal start (28:18). We wrap up by answering your questions with a quick edition of Barker's Back Leg Bits (41:05)!
