Make sure to check out "Steve's Pitch", his blog on the site.
He talks about the Philippe Lopez deal and the DBack's willingness to part with Dan Herring.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
You know, I don't recall Stone ever using the term "we" when referring to the Cubs or wearing any team gear on a regular basis when he was in the Cubs TV booth. He seems to do all of that a lot now since going to the Dark Side. That speaks volumes.

I liked the video where he talked about Harry, but I did find one rather bizarre quote in his blog. He is discussing the Twins, and that they no longer have the Yankees or Red Sox to play this year (The sox have 15 left against them) and says "...it's a tremendous thing for the twins, <b>who are tied with the Cubs</b>, to know they won't have to face those teams again". What??? Why in God's name would he mention the Twins standings in relation to the Cubs? Does that make sense on any level?
<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->
It was a bad Freudian slip on his part. He's completely obsessed with the Cubs, and talks about them way more in his blog that he does about the Sox. <b>I said when Stone first signed on to broadcast Sox games that he so in part to spite us and the Cubs, and I'm sticking to that.</b>

And I remember calling you out on that. I admit I was wrong and I take it all back.
