Morning after the Sox's marathon game three, I wake up to my radio blaring Stocks and Jocks at ten minutes to six. I had passed out between the 12th and 13th inning, and desperately wanted to know what happened, so I flipped around the dial for a while, couldn't find anyone giving the score, so I went back to 670.
Just shy of 6, the doofus from Stocks and Jocks gives the final and introduces the Mike North Show... cue long boring shitty intro... Then Fred with the sports update, which gives the final score and a couple of stats (Marte, Blum, Buerhle)...
And then Mike North interrupts. He begins a two to three minute rant about how many people missed the end of the game, how the start time on this game hurts audiences on the east coast, and how this hurts MLB sponsorship.
What a fucking dildo.
Look, Mike: nobody in Chicago gives a fuck about the sponsors, or the East Coast, or the state of the game of professional baseball. Capiche? Or however you wise guys spell it...
Yet this is your lead angle on the most important game of the World Series? Yeah, I'm real fucking concerned about how the corporate america can accept my favorite team winning an extra-inning game. That's the first thing I worry about every morning after an overtime game or anything similar--- how will it affect my favorite team's bottom line? Oh dear!
This show, priding itself on being undeniably Chicago, produces this dollop of feces after the most important Chicago baseball game in the last hundred years or so?
Mike: this is why your piece of shit of a program is no better than the canned meat offered by the competitor. Because even if they're witless and boring, they're still more relevant to sports than the half-digest shit you've been spewing since 1995.
