Off Topic: Dan "Ya Know" Uggla

Note to Dan Uggla, second baseman for the Florida Marlins...I'd like the 10-minutes of my life back, between 3:40 and 3:50 p.m. (EST), that I spent listening to your interview on the Mike & Murray Show on Sirius Channel 123 (Sports Action).

During this 10 minute interview with Uggla, the supremely talented infielder must have said the phrase "You Know" over 100 times. I kid you not. In 600 seconds, that two word phrase was spoken over 100 times. There was even one point where there was a stretch of 12 words spoken, 8 of them being the comprised of the phrase "You Know."

From a listener's perspective, it became a little funny when hosts Bruce Murray and Mike Yam (tremendous duo by the way! Worth the subscription alone!) caught the "You Know" virus and started saying it themselves. While Bruce and Mike are never entirely "professional" in regards to their topics, they always deliver their insights as well spoken as anyone. So, to hear them fall into the massive pit dug by Uggla was a little humorous.
