It definitely has caused me to think it over :lol: But I do not think he was the first one to sound warnings about meatpants.

I have really tried to like him, but I just don't care for him partnered with Mac. When I have heard him solo doing the baseball gig, he is pretty solid. I really enjoyed the work I have heard of Mac and Vandy, or I would love for Goff to get a shot with Mac.

Let's be honest, who put the show together and who is in charge? Answer, Mac- his fault all the way around. His idea of a good show differs greatly from most people- this show sucks and won't last. He is the new North, irrelevant and dull.

Meatpants does a good job on the baseball show when he is on it, this Mac and Meat combo sucks.
Mac had 5 months to put this together and he made the decisions about this show, he made poor ones. There is NOTHING fresh nor creative in this mess. sorry to offend his friends, but truth hurts alot and the truth is, this show is awful and meaningless to most people.

If you were hoping for a Mac & Jurko reunion, forget about it. John Jurkovic just re-upped with ESPN Radio 1000 down the dial. Oak Park Vandy would be a good replacement for Matt Spiegel if Mac decided tomorrow to drop his hand-picked co-host on his second tour of duty at 670 The SCORE & 670thescore.com. This is probably a stretch, but I'd get Rob Dibble back here in a heartbeat. I'll never understand why "Dibs" was let go from ESPN Radio, but I thought he & Dan Patrick did a pretty good job when "The Dan Patrick Show" was launched down the dial many years ago. The onetime former White Sox pitcher now analyzes the Washington Nationals on MASN, a regional sports network in the Beltway, and hasn't been afraid to speak his mind since his own playing days ended...

Yeah, that was a good pairing the one time I heard them together. Maybe since Meatpants has to miss so many days of work due to all those religulous holidays he apparently observes, Mac can do a Carson style rotating audition for a replacement co-host.

If Mac wanted to turn it into a reality show, he may want to think twice about putting it on FOX Reality Channel...That channel's going bye-bye next March.

Rumor has it, Eddie O immediately called up the Score looking to go on the air so he could second the idea.

I think traffic reports on NBC5's local version of the "Today Show" between 4:30-7a weekdays puts food on the table for Matt "The Dancing Fool" Rodewald. As for Mark Grote, when does this guy get a break? I read somewhere that Mark's teeth was wired shut for a while. Also, Grote's splits his time updating occasionally with Mac & Spiegs as well as "Mully & Hanley" on the SCORE, plus does sports updates all the time on WBBM Newsradio 780 at :15 & :45 past the hour.

I don't hear a disdain but I don't hear a high level of comfort from either partner. I don't know if time will help it or not. It might but there is also something to be said about chemistry.

Had a conversation with a total stranger about this show and he said " I really want to like it but I just don't."

I think Mac & MeatPants do a fine job. I respect MeatPants for stepping out and not being afraid of speaking his mind with Dan and B&B during transition. It took M& H some time to get the ratings going,hopefully Dan & Meat can get them going also.

The problem is that lots of guys "pay their dues", but still suck...like Spiegel. We all know guys who we have worked with who have been good soldiers who have paid their dues but are bad at doing their jobs. 5 Months ago I said that Mac & WSCR was following the same path that they followed with North, & that is exactly what has happened. WSCR needs to do what it did with Hamp & Holmes & cut it's losses & go in another direction. Jason Goff or J Hood is the right partner for Mac.

I've listened just about every day since the show started and I like it. Now I have probably the least Mac listening time, so I don't have anything to go by as far as "is he better now or worse". I think Spiegs does a good job. There are bumps in the road but doesn't any show have them in it's infancy?

Now.....all that being said......the times that Spiegs and Mac have had different partners, they have sounded more comfortable (except the ones with LoHo, I will never be a fan) with different partners. In fact, those shows sounded completely different.

But I still like the show and will listen daily.

I wont believe there is tension until punches are thrown. Hell it took him years to take a poke at Harry, I would have done it in the first show.

I've been back on Silvy & Waddle the past few days and they've been pretty good. It's becoming kind of difficult for me to find reasons to listen to Mac & Meat lately especially when they're up against one of the best shows in town...

With liking Silvy and Waddle as a show, I listen to way more Mac and Meat. Yes, they digress, but thats what I like, let it all out. It's called personality. My man Waddle isn't exaclty crazy tommy. Silvy could be, but gotta be hard with the ESPN Empire looking over your shoulder all the time.

This does not mean improvements cant be made. But still good.

From out of nowhere, OPV takes a shot from the book depository.

This is delicious fun!

OPV was good, but that didn't mean Matty S. isn't good either.
Meatpants make actually do a great 6-10 solo show. I know who doesn't do a good 6-10 show right now, so improvements can still be made.

Well Mac keeps referring to "The Audition". Does anyone here believe he signed a 1 year deal? I don't, but I could be wrong. My thought is that they let him pick his guy and if the ratings aren't there in a year things will change. Either they tell Mac to pick someone else OR they tell him who he is picking.
Of course I could be way off.
