I feel like Forrest Whitaker in Platoon after witnessing what Tom Berenger and his buddies did to that village. This is bad.

I barely listened this year, but there’s no denying that Mac is a legendary figure in Chicago sports radio. He needs a wake with a huge turnout. Where are we doing this? Cumberland Chapels?

:shock: :shock: :shock:

Seriously, this is EXACTLY what is wrong with the station, and the entire media today.

Fuck the living fuck out of this shit.

It all needs to come crashing down.

Pleas don’t lump SAS in this category.

I probably consume him least of the 4 so maybe he's not a great example


Stephen A is an uninformed dipshit, wouldn't call him a troll.

slightly off topic, but on topic.

If Dan McNeil had described a WNBA woman's arm as "sex" today, would he have been fired for that as well? Again, I am not saying what Dan tweeted was appropriate, but this kind of stuff does happen a lot. What do we think?

Yeah, that is a strange tweet by Spain. I guess it is more complimentary than McNeil's but still could be construed as demeaning/objectifying.

Yea. I'm not even saying I have the answer on this, but if this is completely fine....I just wonder if a media "male" personality would be allowed to tweet that about a woman without reprimand. The lines are going to get blurry at some point here. We are going to get to the point eventually where its like Chris and Al talking about if its a catch or not, if both feet are in, if a head and elbow equal two feet in the end zone...

Sometimes it's one of those "I can't define it, but I know it when I see it." Most people seem okay with "she has a nice teeth" or "great hair" but would say "nice tits" is out of line even though it's all physical. And of course the gender double standard...I think in the Captain Marvel movie (or Endgame), she says Captain America has a nice ass. We would NEVER see CA say that about CM without huge uproar.

Yeah. It's weird. It's against the law to say a women is pretty now.

I think most women like to be complimented are their looks.

Then you have some that like it and then take the opportunity to say you're sexist.

Yeah, that's far worse than what Mac said but nothing will come of it.

It's just Sarah being "saucy".

She thinks the man is made of pure sex.

But, that's cool.

Maybe she means that sex is fast, hard, and just off target but not by enough to be safe at home.

She needs to stop over sexualizing black men. Be better Sarah.

because under critical theory, a person saying something upwards is heroic and downwards is oppressive, per se

It's OK guys, I know you think she was answering the question posed in the tweet she quoted, but she was actually just commenting on the nature of the throw itself.

Well, it's nice that she is able to explain herself and clarify her comment with no consequences.

Looks like the internet has been fixed.

Yay, 2020.

Yea thats it. the throw the throw..

What's his arm made out of? "Sex"

Oh when I said that, the throw, the throw. No..that's not what you meant. Own it.

I want to be very clear that I don't agree with Dan's tweet and honestly, I didn't find it funny because I didn't even make the connection between her outfit and reference. What I am saying is this "tribal, cancel culture" can be very hypocritical and choose whichever lane it pleases. I do have a problem with that. And I will get political for one second here - this is exactly how we got stuck with Trump becoming president.

Thank you. I am still trying to figure out why he is wearing a mask on a zoom call. He looks like god damn death.

What bothers me about his firing is that his tweet was meant as humor, albeit in bad taste, and that he was not on the air. He was doing it in his private life.

The station should not be able to fire him for that tweet when it wasn't done on company time. There must have been words in his contract which said he could be fired for conduct detrimental to the team. If not, then the station would need to buy out his contract.

The one good thing about the grave dancers is they mostly work in media and will find themselves jobless and out of the profession within 5 years.

Exactly, yes, it was humor. But as noted in that Tweet above. Zero tolerance. No fun. No comedy. No sarcasm. No objective assessment of performance. No comments about looks. No name calling.

They have made their collective bed. Mac fell into that trap. And the trap got em.
