Buehrle on Jim Rome Today

[redOzone]

Mark Buehrle just called into Jim Rome from the dugout at Wrigley 15 mins to game time.

It was a quick interview with the typical questions.

On the Cubs Series
Mark - It's for the media and fans we just want to get it over with

On Cub Fan
Mark - They are always talking smack like "Go back to AAA"

Rome - Will they still be saying that now that you’re the best team in baseball?
Mark - Cubs fan have been drinking since 9:00 am they don't know what they are talking about.

Rome - Standing O after Texas outing.
Mark - Always likes to tip cap.

Rome - Closer situation
Mark - Dustin Hermanson is the man, Ozzie hasn't come out and said it but..

Rome - Quick games?
Mark - Ya, they have been quick, get rid of the time in between innings and save warm-up pitches I'm ready

Rome - AJ?
Mark - Great guy! Talked about going over to Japan w/ him a couple years ago
Some batters say he talks too much, but I don’t see it.

Rome - Garland
Mark - Gets out of Jams

Rome liked the call from the dugout 15 mins before game time. Pitches quick and does interviews quick.

HAHA Thats pretty cool. They showed him on the dugout phone. The guy from WGN said he was doing "last minute tests" on the phone. Moron.

I can just imagined what Rome sounded like when he was doing the interview.

I heard it on streamlink.

Buehrle's quote about Cub fans probably drinking since 9:00 am is hilarious.

I respect Buehrle's answer to the standing ovation he received in his last start:

"If the fans are going to get up and cheer for me, I'm going to at least acknowedge them by a tip of my hat and let them know I appreciate them for cheering me on." Class act Buehrle. We appreciate it. I hope to participate in many more standing ovations for you at Comiskey Park. :gulp:

Rome on Hermanson: "That's a good way to keep your job--just not allow any runs ever." hahah

Mark's mistake here is thinking alcohol consumption plays a part in Cubs fans not knowing what they're talking about. Sober Cub fans are just as clueless.

It is hilarious, and brings up something that I love about this year's team...They know us (their fans) and do anything and everything they can to identify with us. This team that Ozzie is leading is nothing but class.
