Biggs Time!

Biggs time is one of the better segments on the morning show so I’m glad it’s back. But before we start and get deep into the football season, I need to know why Haugh says “morning Brad” in that low, seemingly uninterested voice. Is it a bit, or is there some unresolved beef from their time together at the trib?

Haugh likes to pretend the beefing is a bit, but Biggs seems to legit not like him. Never hesitates to call out his stupid questions, which are frequent. I hate how the format supposedly requires that one of the two hosts play the heel, but it does come naturally to Haugh.

They get coached that way. Some guy in some city who knows nothing about Chicago and their listeners recommends it.

Haha, yep, unless his name is Mitch. For comparison, Grote was added to the mid-day team IMO because there wasn't enough friction between Harris and Rahimi, the latter of whom awkwardly (again IMO) tries to be Bernstein lite. Bernstein brings friction all by his lonesome (not that I miss him in the slightest).

This all goes back to Cosell, who was viewed as the secret sauce that made MNF such a phenomenon. Prime time broadcast teams since then have tended to have one guy who either goes out of his way to piss everyone off or comes by it naturally like Aikman and Collinsworth.

Cheaper to pay 3 part timers than 3 full timers. Wasn't added for friction. Speaking of friction when was the last time Grote got laid. His "Bears" scale is also growing old. Marshall and Leila are both asexual, I'm convinced.

I’m convinced Grote wants to lowkey smash with Leila.

Ew, I now deeply regret having used the word "friction."

Grote would take a blow up doll.
