The first one was funny because it was too true. It's painful to watch even my own kid play t-ball.

The second guy didn't even elicit a chuckle. Three and four were very funny.

I'll keep my eye out for those three guys to hear more.

I like G.I. from his Last Comic days. Barcena made me laugh unexpectedly and Franciso made me chuckle with his cereal bit; don't know why "Antonio the Tiger" was so funny.

I like that Al Madrigal is struggling with issues of ethnic identity. I've never heard his comedy before. He's an interesting cat.

Re: Madrigal, I do feel like he has solid material but there was something about the timing, tone and delivery that left me underwhelmed.
