Topics include: the possibility of a S.D. Padres comeback against the Chicago Cubs in the 1984 baseball playoffs; the poor calls made by the "scab" baseball umpires (union umpires were on strike); the difficulty of obtaining tickets for baseball playoffs; the fans at the playoffs; the Chicago Tribune's lack of attention given to the winning Cubs; Steve Garvey's thoughts on older baseball players, and how much longer players are able to sustain successful careers; Ernie Banks throwing out the opening pitch at the playoff game; the Chicago Bulls moving Michael Jordan to the point guard position (Mengelt thinks it is a bad move for the Bulls!); the upcoming college football week; Bill Murray jokingly complains about not being asked to sing the "Star Spangled Banner" at Wrigley Field during the National League playoffs; the upcoming pro-football week; and Walter Payton's anticipated performance in the upcoming Bears game. Some interesting moments include: 15:47: Various shots of excited Chicago Cubs fans in and around Wrigley Field in Chicago. 18:13 A shot of Ernie Banks, former Cubs player, throwing out the first pitch of the playoff game. 19:23 John Mengelt (regarding the decision by the Chicago Bulls to put rookie Michael Jordan in the point guard position): "... I don't think [The Bulls] will end up going that way...they might try...who knows what's going to happen?" 20:44 Bill Murray, at Wrigley Field, jokingly complaining that Bobby Vinton was chosen over him to sing The National Anthem at the playoff game.
