Best Rant Ever

We didn't know he was still alive:

We were still in high school when Lee Elia let loose with this one, and we heard the censored version for years on the Dahl and Meier radio show opening. He played for both the Cubs and the Sox, but he probably picked up most of his salty attitude in Philadelphia

Without a doubt, one of the greatest rants ever

Who asked the question that got him so fired up? Was it that Jim Shorts guy?

We lost a real character with the passing of Elia.

Thanks to Les Grobstein for this nugget. Dahl and Meier playing the censored version had me howling as a high-schooler. I remember digging up the uncensored version after it was reported that AJ Pierzynski used it for his pregame psych up routine.

“The name of the game is hit the ball, catch the ball, and get the fkn job done.”

“”…AND PRINT IT!!!”

Steve Dahl's Sox disco demolition stunt caused me to rant back in the day.

He's absolutely right about the lazy asses who dont work but attend games while the rest of us have to work for a living. The ONLY reason fans go to Cubs games is because its nothing but a fucking drink fest for 9 innings or 2 1/2 hrs.
