North was on WGN Morning news this morning, probably around 8:30'ish. It was pretty stupid. He was singing one of his songs, clapping to it, and even some of the morning anchors were singing to it. He got the full plug, his stupid CD, his website, and when his show is on in the mornings. All in all, it was pretty stupid, and makes me think, "the lucky bastard did it again."

I think Channel 5 should look into this and see this as breach of contract, lol.

Did they introduce him as NBC part-time sports hack? If that’s the case, then it’s considered promotional and wouldn’t be frowned upon at all.

Just shows you what kind of Greed North is displaying here. I Guess $1.5+ million wasnt enough needed to sell the $9 CD's on every single possible place.

Plugging an outside project, and blowing off his radio show, which should be his ONLY priority. Who else could get away with this shit? His ratings are in the toilet, even by sports talk standards, and he's out pimping this fucking CD like is the goddamn cure for cancer!! Enough already, you greedy mafia wannabe prick!! If you put half as much time into that piss poor excuse for a show, as you did with this irrelevant, outdated CD, maybe someone would give two shits about it.

NORTH REMINDS ME OF DITKA = Ditka had one great Superbowl year and then became a plugola machine and lost his bite and has been riding that one win ever since = North had one great ratings book and then became a plugola machine and lost his bite and has been riding that one win ever since.

Bad hyperbole because you seem to equate the significance of the Superbowl win and everything that goes into it and a good ratings book. Also, Ditka pretty much has defined the TE position as we know it now?

Now here is something I was wondering...

Did North only blow off like an hour of his show, or did he miss the entire 670 show yesterday?

He rolled into the studio about 9:40. I don't know if he came in, left, and came back or not. I only heard the last hour. But the way he bitched about traffic, and with my general knowledge of North, my bet is he blew off all but the last 20 minutes. There's a guy who's got his priorities straight.
