Chatting on the field before Sunday’s Tigers-Cubs game, actor Jeremy Piven and Cubs marketing chief John McDonough discussed how Piven would incorporate his signature line into his singing of “Take Me Out to the Ball Game.”
They came up with: “Hug it out, Cubs fans.”
“Let’s hug it out, you little bitches,” he yelled to the crowd at Wrigley Field.
McDonough, while noting that Piven has been a loyal Cubs fan and friend to the team, was disappointed and issued an apology.
his rambling commentary on wgn with len kasper and bob brenly was equally embarrassing.
And nothing like wearing that hideonomous Clash t-shirt from yet another one of their tepid career stops…this all being after the Undertones blew their leather-wearing bogus NewYawk punk outfits off the stage at piss-comped Palladium back in ’79.
kicked out of the Palladium, ya think that I care?
Piven’s cool. Lay off.
Rumor has it Piven has herpes. STD’s aside, anyone who calls Cub fans, “little bitches,” even if it is schtick (cue Mudhoney), is ok in my book.
