Its only a matter of time before that Comcast thing trainwrecks. We all know it. What visually can North, Jiggs and Juggs possibly do to get an audience for three hours? It aint gonna happen. When you read this Mike, "put it on tape" because its your calling and it may keep you in Chicago making some dough for the rest of your pathetic life.


First of all, you have to go back to not taking yourself so serious. You are a goof. Its how you made a name for yourself. Somewhere along the line your little mind thought you were actually a media genius. Sure you fooled a lot of people and made a lot of money but that ship has sailed or sunk. You need something fresh. Something to show your strengths (?).

Heres my idea for YOU Mike. Free of charge.

You call Sox, Cubs, Hawks, Bulls and Bears management. You tell them you want be the man of the fans. Mike can be that guy thats outside reporting from the stands, bleachers, Murphys, Bullpen Sports bar etc etc etc. Remember when Eric Collins did it for Sox games. MIke can be that guy for all of the teams. Picture North in the bleachers toasted interviewing a young Bikini wearing Blonde. Or in the parking lot before a Bears game tailigating. Or the Bullpen Sportsbar getting rowdy with some Sox fans. In the crowd at a Hawks game celebrating after a win. The fans would love him. He'd be one of them. Jim Corno should hire Mike but not for his own show. That is a huge mistake.

He is what he is. He might as well get paid to be a goof like the old days.

You are probably right. If Ditka can still make a living in this town from the act he had, Mikey Two Times can parlay what little "fame" he had into a Superfan-type image. Maybe if he had a mustache, my friend.

won't work, his ego will never deflate. Even if he did get a job like that, the pay would be shit compared to what he thinks he's worth, 7 figures.

My point is this might open up other things like commercials and appearances. He'd make good money overall but not like he use to. Those days are gone. Dont get me wrong! I wish nothing but the worst for Mike but this should be his direction. I agree though. His ego will never deflate.

He is done. Everyone knows it except him.

He will learn a new lesson this year in how much it costs to produce a TV show.

The real question is how much is he willing to lose to stay on the air?

It will be COMCAST's accounting Dept v. Spaceball in a meeting on actual costs of the production. This will be the first fight where he will threaten to sue COMCAST for unfair accounting practices.

Then he will say he has an option to renew the deal and most likely the option is mutual. Everyone at COMCAST will be sick of him by then, but he will try and kiss ass to get the next year of the deal even if he loses $100K.

Joe C. at COMCAST will say "Thanks but no thanks"

North will try and crawl back to the Score by calling Mitch, but I just cant see Zimmerman and Agasi letting this guy back in after his mouthing off about them.

Danny Mac will give him his 8 minutes "To say goodbye to his fan"

If the last six months haven't humbled him, nothing will.

why would he feel humbled the last 6 mo? He's getting free meals at the webio restaurant, ripping ppl off thru his now defunct gambling website, and jen jen and his entourage telling him that he invented the internet and podcasts. And now he gets a tv show lined up, nothing will humble this racist scumbag.
