Around SBN: MLB Trade Deadline: Phils, Astros complete Roy Oswalt deal

"Ryan, who on the Cubs team is most likely to win Last Comic Standing? -- Nick, Carmel, Ind.

Demp. He's hilarious. He's going to do some improv stuff in a couple weeks at Second City. You know we'll be there for that one."

I'm going to be in Chicago over Labor Day. Anybody got any inside info on when Dempster is going to be at Second City, if true?

I'm not sure

I couldn’t find anything except for THIS.

Thanks for that link.

I might go to that. Worthy event, and a chance to hear Dempster do comedy.

Awesome.

Hopefully you make it and can tell us all about it. I would do it in a heartbeat but it’s a bit expensive for my liking. Good Luck!

Go All In and Enjoy The Ride.

Thanks

Good find, thanks. Too bad I won’t be in Chicago on the 15th. I wonder if Dempster is going to do some improv at Second City itself in addition to this benefit, which is the way Theriot made it sound. But I suppose that wouldn’t be advertised too heavily, because, as AceCubbie notes below, the place would be mobbed. But that would be a good thing for Second City.

I must see this

Though living in Michigan and being poor at the moment will make it hard. If anyone goes to this, I would love a video of him performing. I can see him being very good at this.

Theriot listens

to Lil’Wayne??? No freakin way.

Demp is a cool dude.

I was able to go on the field during the Padres series. Of all the players he was the only one who came over to speak to me and my wife.

OT: Baseball alive at old Tiger Stadium site
I have to admit, i didn't expect this to work, and i generally don't condone ratting somebody out, but i think Woo Woo inspires special circumstances. 

He was a few rows above me and a group of maybe a hundred other University of Iowa alumni last night, and started right in with the wooing early and loud. Between innings, he was... how shall i say this... creeping around? We all know his reputation. 

Within 10 minutes of making a complaint to the Cubs text line, he was gone. Might be worth trying in future instances.

Sorry for the crappy picture quality... just got a new phone (HTC EVO) and am not sure how to take screen caps yet.
