Uh-oh. It's official... this board is going the way of the dodo.

The only way to save it is to get North a job by the 20th. We've all got to pull together and pitch in to save this board. If not, who will know who matches who? That whole thread could be eliminated! The threads on solving race relations in the 21st century will all be gone. Fred's Hip hop moments, the musings of Anne Maxfield -- all wiped out in a flash.

Please call your local radio stations (and I mean really local... a 50 watt AM station will do) and get him a daily radio show! Where will all the new members flock to post about what an awesome guy North is?

No chance in hell! Hasn't North seen all the layoffs, pay cuts & format switches, thanks to the recession this country appears to be in? If Mike wants to work again in Chicago, he'll have to make the transition to television, do what Howard Stern did with Sirius Satellite Radio, or borrow a page from 2 other former personalities in Kevin Matthews & Mancow and broadcast exclusively on the Web. Before he went back to Grand Rapids, MI to host morning drive on an FM classic rock station he actually started his radio career, Kevin actually said "the future of radio is on the Internet". North might want to invest all that "SCORE" money he made in 16 years and start broadcasting online. The landscape of Chicago radio has changed considerably, and I don't see any program director or any radio station boss giving North the time of day, let alone his asking price. Face it, Pappy...IT'S OVER!

Either that, or it'd be time for ol' Lew to go grab the ax you just know is stashed away in case of emergency(insanity)

How about a Poll on the section? Save it or dump it?

where else can we make fun of such an idiot.

I didn't hear yesterdays history making program, but did pod 2 of the segments. I enjoy listening to Mike North whine and cry about not getting to do the last week of his show, telling Rod Zimmerman how stupid he is, listening to Jen and Bebe tell them how "Proud" they are of him like he just made his first Poopie in the toilet, I enjoy listening to a guy who once crapped on everyone talking about how everyone in his business wronged him.

This is the "Goes around , comes around" at it's best! The Score forced me to endure the Going around part and I can admit I don't want to hear more than 2 minutes of this idiot, but it puts me at ease when I hear him fumbling around talking to Jen about her talents , like you she could handle a job in the real world.

I think we should keep the section until the fall; as Mike has sworn up and down he'll be back on the air in the fall. If by say the first week of October, if nothing offical has been announced?

It will be time to sing him off with a little "Hey hey hey, goodbye."

The song "Turn out the lights, the party's over" comes to mind.

Looks like that will be about the day he finds something - from northtonorth

I am about a week away from making a decision on my next move. I am really excited about the possibilities.

I can't believe You people are still talking about North! Must of had an impact on ya. M&M are LAME in the morning. Hub and Zak have been terrible this week. If they thought the ratings were bad with North I wouldn't want to know what they are now. I like Hub as an analyst but to host a show with Zak my radio went right to another station or stayed off. CBS made a huge mistake. I'm sure the customers that they have will be watching the ratings also and when they start bolting to other stations they may rethink this decision. Love him or hate him he will be back!
