    In tonight's episode, P.J. has a chance to write a book about a New York Met.

    Considering how close her job is to actual sports journalism, bet he's modeled after Bobby Bonilla.

    I'd read a book about Bobby Bonilla. But that's just me.

    Why, yes. Yes, it is. :D



    I have yet to watch this show.

    Is her job closer to actual sports journalism than the job of Ray Barone, whom everybody allegedly loved?

    I'd write a book about Bobby Bonilla if he promised to tell the whole truth.

    I'd ask you to autograph my copy... after I asked Bob Klapisch to autograph it.

    I bet she turns it down because she's a Cubs fan.

    But ... but ... how can she be a Cubs fan if she's the Cubs beat reporter?

    Does it really matter if she's rooting in the press box? I mean, eighty-five percent of the fucking world is working. The other fifteen percent come out there. A fucking playground for the cocksuckers. Maybe it's like when in Rome, except in this case, it's when in Chicago and on a sitcom?

    Formula for writing a My Boys episode:

    Surround predictable situation stolen from every other sitcom with liberal use of the word "Dude". Make sure to throw in at least a token reference or two to her actual job. Sprinkle in more "Dudes". Rinse. Repeat. Endut.

    If she starts dating him I think I'll kill myself.

    I've never actually watched this. I have seen the threads on here. I just watched the opening and cringed. Does this have any potential to be bad-good, or am I going to be poking my eyes out with toothpicks in 15 minutes?
