What's funnier is how almost every caller asks "how are you" And Colmes ignores them. He never answers the question but his callers never seem to notice. I don't know how he does that show without his head exploding.<br />He certainly has a good gimmick, a liberal host whose callers are almost all right wing. I started listening after tuning in to 910 post-massacre, and it's pretty entertaining but damn there's a lot of screaming (not always from me).<br /><br />Re Posey; when at the start of the season Zeets let it be known he was most comfortable with Hector Sanchez, nobody seemed to mind; give posey a rest, etc. But when Timmy all of a sudden had to have Hec catch, that was a problem because it meant both first base and LF had to be juggled. And why wouldn't our pitchers want our all star carter to catch them? It just looked weird. For a long time I thought it was Boch' call, to spare Posey the wear and tear catching two wild pitchers would cause. Now, I'm not sure. It is the mystery of the season and I'm amazed no one has come forward with an explanation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4029870750479192711.post-81297349427051233022012-10-07T11:07:27.044-07:002012-10-07T11:07:27.044-07:00"Oh, you seem to be breaking up.... is that y..."Oh, you seem to be breaking up.... is that your phone or our phone?
