Episode 311: David Ortiz Wins The Popularity Contest

In this episode of the pod, our spiral into madness at the hands of the lockout continue. We discuss the results of the Hall of Fame vote and the hypocrisy of baseball writers refusing to vote for guys connected to steroids like Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, and ARod, but at the same time will turn a blind eye towards David Ortiz. We also had Tommy take an IQ test to see how he compares to the rest of the Short Porch crew, as well as have Marty play Wordle for the first time ever to see if his brain can handle it. Outside of the baseball world, we discuss the NFL playoffs and how devastating the Packers' loss was to Hubbs. We finally round out the show by answering some fan-submitted questions. Despite the lack of baseball news, we make it work as always. Outro song: "Set Me Free One Day" (via APM Music Library)
