If you are in a place of pressure then you are in the place of being able to accomplish something great. Many today want the privileges that come with success but are not willing to deal with the pressure.

Many that is true, but an incomplete statement. You can toil in an Amazon warehouse under a great deal of pressure without the opportunity to accomplish greatness. But yes, I agree, screw people who just want to rise through the ranks without the attendant stress of that rise.

He’s a talker. He did that in the podcast I did with him.

I don’t think the man breathes. It was very difficult to interject.

McNeil was the complete opposite. He opened the door for discussion.

Many people feel pressure that are not in a place to accomplish something great. Ask the single mother of 3 if she feels pressure. And pressure is something someone puts on themselves. You could be starting game 7 of the World Series but not feel pressure. While that quote might apply to some people in some circumstances, it is not some universal truth to make memes about.

How do you get to be a single mother of three in most cases? Usually it's because a bad choice was made. I'm not demonizing that mother. Everyone makes mistakes. But you seem to be suggesting people lack agency they actually have.

How does any of this relate to the point I was making? Would it make a difference to you if I had said a widowed mother of 3?

If Boers wouldve said that on the air at 670 in the last year( the kids today, pressure stuff ) theyd be trying to cancel him for it.

Once again Terry and King were talking about sports. And in the world of sports it is absolutely right.

Got a chance to listen, and though it seemed to wane a bit in second hour, especially the Abbatacola segment, the NFL talk was solid. Uncle Terry can still provide food for thought at times, when he asked, "do you see a good coach", while talking about Nagy, it was spot on and the type of thing you would never hear at WSCR.

Mac can still provide better NFL content than anyone at WSCR. However with the current lineup that is not saying much.

Claw, it was very entertaining but he did a mean tweet! Too much fan, you are banned!

I don't know how Mac didn't negotiate a Bears post game show on one of the stations. I imagine those get very good ratings as they all seem to be packed with commercials. Mac would be king, a more intelligible OB, and could probably do it out of his basement.

He has been canceled, none of the Chicago stations would do that. Even though it would be really smart.

That show was a train wreck.

He seemed to line up a good deal of advertisers for someone who is "canceled"

I guess he is only canceled in the minds of woke fags who work at 670. He isn't canceled in the eyes of normal people.

But who has been cancelled that you can directly say is due to the "woke" movement or however the right wants to describe it? People in the past lost their jobs when they made terribly racist, sexist comments. Who are some victims of cancel culture?

Cancel culture isn't real. Maybe there should be cancel culture, but there actually isn't. To the extent that there is cancel culture, it's not even effective. Maybe there is cancel culture, and if there is, that's actually good.

The big problem with the wokesters is that they don't realize people like Alex Jones, Rachel Maddow, Chris Cuomo, and Hannity don't actually believe anything they say, like most politicians it's just a job where they play a part in order to get paid. Pretending to be woke and saying the right crap to make it seem like your sympathetic to the woke cause can keep you employed for a time, just ask Bernstein, Parkins, Holmes, and Spiegs.

Going to try to catch the replay of Mac's show on Saturday and see what it is like. I have a 30 minute drive home from golf and the time should work out.

Just ripped a wicked bong and put on the Sept 10 show to listen to for the first time... a shot of pure nostalgia.

Obviously, the main focus is on the Bears. But, I liked the recent conversation about the Purdue/Indiana game for the Old Oaken Bucket. Focusing a bit more on Indiana sports is a good move. It feels like a fresher re-boot than rehashing Chicago sports non-stop. In that vein, Dan Dakich would make for a good guest for Mac and Oak Park Vandy. They could talk a little Indiana sports and cancel culture.

Mac and Vandy talked about Mac not being allowed to come to the Scores 30th party. Vandy said that the reason Mac was not allowed was due to something he said to Mitch off the record awhile back.

Still a bunch of crap.

I would rather listen to Mac talk about literally anything over Parkins and Spiegel on their best day. Unlistenable - even to fall asleep to.

100% facts.
