It took 30 seconds for Mike to totally show whats up and how full of crap he is. For one, he said it wasnt about the money, but on the air two weeks ago he said it was about the money..lol.

Then he said he is done with the score, they took the offer off the table, but now it was his choice to leave, which is is Mikey? He also has 4 offers on the table at this time, but not all in radio, which isnt what he said on his website or when he was last on the air.

This guy is just to confused to keep his BS straight.

Yeah this is real bad. It lie after lie. He knows damn well he doesn't give a shit about Jiggs. If his wife is so great, why in the hell would she let him wear that shit, he looks gay.

I saw it. What a joke he is. He can't keep up with his lies.

He said that he would have got the Imus job but the head of CBS said "the Score will miss him too much." - That's bullshit.

He said he had nothing to do with the Jiggs break up when we've heard Mac tell us several times he was responsible but the Score allowed it.

There was more bullshit. Man, they let him talk forever without going to a commercial. They still haven't taken a break but now they are doing sports talk.

Why would anyone hire him to do something other than sports? He can't put a sentence together, and keeps talking about he talks like that because that who listens to the Score.

He said he'll be back by September. Said he's got a web, TV, and radio offer.

Ok. You can't make anything on the fucking web. So that's a nothing offer. TV? Locally? Maybe a segment on the Sunday shows but that's nothing. What else is there on local TV?

So there might be one radio offer. But I'll bet he's lieing about that.

Also dumb sports comment by North says Twins have benefited by playing the NL, yes they have at 14-4 but what about the tigers at 13-5

Let's see, he had great ratings. LOL! Ask Teddy G about that.
Never about the money, then why say for two weeks it was about the money.
It's about respect, which in Mike's mind is about the money.
4 offers and will be on the air in September, BS.
Took a shot at Kaplan, but he didn't realize it. Mike is angling for a Comcast job, with no offer.
The score MADE $23 mil last year, no Mike that was revenue not earnings.
Every station should have someone making a million a year, as long as it's Mike.
The list goes on. The one thing that comes through is that he is a shallow, pathelogical liar.

He also had an excuse for the sponsors not cancelling.

What happened to my edit? Too old to understand, I guess.

Kaplan is like a deer in headlights. Nobody challenges his bullshit. Sam Smith looks like he doesn't want to be there. It's just worship time.

Pappy still thinks he was this big star. He was fucking 8th and got killed by Mike and Mike. He'll never get that.

Well, the September thing I will bet is a segment on "The Final Word" or the local Bears Pre-game stuff.

He said "lets say I did it, I was taking the biggest risk". WTF? He did it, he can deny it or spin it, but he made my point, it was all about him, no one else, he wanted it, he got spaceball to do it. North made himself look like a complete ass today, his lies are not changing and its just pathetic, I hope Mac does his homework and watches the replay of this tonight, because there are for sure some questions that need to be asked by him.

Sam Smith would trade Mike North and the Bulls 2nd rounder to the Clippers for Elton Brand in a sign and trade. ;)

Forgot to watch Trib Live tonight. Does Comcast normally replay it or have podcasts on their 1998-like website?

Interesting stuff. I'll give Northy this much - he's a pretty damned confident guy. Spaceball is going to be pretty instrumental in wherever Pappy lands, and it was good to hear him throw some acknowledgement towards Jeff Schwartz. I don't really buy into the stuff he was selling that he was NOT in favor of getting his own show either. Sounded like revisionist history to me. I also think it's a safe bet he won't end up back at a CBS owned station.

Sam Smith needs to hook up with Doc Brown in his DeLoreon and transport himself back to the 80s to the 'Sportswriters on TV' - it appears the halcyon years have arrived!

Bobby Blotzer of Ratt called Pappy - he wants his shirt back. ;)

Thanks... While I don't enjoy the luxury of TIVO, I went to sleep last night, well assured that my old VCR was set for 12:58 a.m. to record on a handy VHS blank.

As for Spaceball, between hiring Sean Salisbury and now supporting Mike North, I really have lost all respect for that guy. Someone in the business once told me how great of a guy he was and he is one of the few good guys in the business left, but I sincerely believe the guy is nothing but a tool.

It's my understanding that his strenght is in marketing a product and not in managing talent.

Both Mac and Jiggs himself have stated this.

Four observations:

1. Unable to finish a sentence before jumping to a completely unrelated matter. ADD?
2. Those teeth
3. That shirt makes him look like, to borrow a phrase from Mac, "a charter member of the Village People"
4. Porkchops!

Will Mac call him out on this on MJH?

I love this. North just tees himself up again for more criticism.
He gushes about having a picture of Jiggs at Pappyland. Mike's ego gets in the way, as he adds "He should have one of me at his house."
He denies the rumor that he orchestrated the changes at WSCR. A few minutes later he says, "What if I did?"
"The Score didn't want to lose Mike". How did their opinion change, since I believe Mike was also losing the ratings battle with M and M at that time.
He continues to accept no blame for the "Chinaman" comment, but then he whines how that situation prevented him from a having a softball field named in his honor.
He just doesn't know when to shut his mouth.

Do you think HE was bullshitting, or CBS was bullshitting - maybe both? Maybe that is indeed what CBS told him and he bought that lame ass excuse.

His arrogance is astonishing. Doesnt he realize he came in last in sports radio listeners. I'm sure the demo for spanish speaking listeners doesnt include english speaking white sports fans. They try to beat the other spanish stations. Sports stations should try to beat the OTHER sports station especially when they have the highly paid franchise or STAR as Mitch calls him. You are second and you are last. When you get beat every book you suck especially when the show you are losing to is out of Connecticut.
