Are three threads in three minutes really the most accurate barometer of how crappy the station is now?

I can't wrap my head around Mac commenting on the NBA.

2. Said he can't wrap his head around rooting for a team (the Bulls) to lose.

Uh oh, Mac coming out of a break talking about the music beds, please don't transition to rock music talk following movie talk....

No way. Mac still has that spark that's missing from a few on-air hosts on the station. Parkins has it, Spiegel's is flickering, while Dan's has been all-but snuffed out and Jason's only fires for topics that don't interest your audience.

No transition, eh? Guess Jason is fine taking shots at people so long as he doesn't have to actually then work with them.

They were so scared of Mac that they booked Fred Hoiberg right at 1pm.

Besides I know Mac will stop trying in a month.

Urlacher interview going well.

just gotta chance to listen to this. Very good interview. Urlacher came off very genuine. I have never understood the thinking of some that he is a douchebag.

Some asked Parkins today on "Can't Do It" if Mac is coming back to WSCR full time. Parkins said he didn't know, but Mac will be hosting with Haugh on Friday when Parkins and Spiegel aren't there.

Ha...I didn't realize so many threads were created about this within several minutes of each other.

Mac already needs new material. Every time I have heard him on WSCR the last few weeks he has: 1. Complained about the Eagles playing the underdog card during the playoffs. 2. Said he can't wrap his head around rooting for a team (the Bulls) to lose. I think it's too early in a return to be this repetitive.

I was getting pretty annoyed yesterday listening to Paxson dance around the tank talk...how the Bulls were going to be giving most of the playing time in upcoming games to the scrubs because "we have to see what they can do" (instead of saying "because we need to lose as many games as possible").

Haugh looks trim. Has he lost a lot of weight recently or does he just have a chubby face?

It would be awesome if, during transition (if there is one), Mac plays the clip of Bernstein's speech after Mac left the station.

Movie talk (reviewing Oscar nominations) is stretching a liiiiiiiitle long. One segment is enough, I think. Uh oh...Mac said he didn't even finish Get Out. Baaaad white man, Mac. Bad.

Listened for a little bit....nothing wrong with David Haugh, but nothing interesting either. Mac sounded good.

It came and went without a problem, though I was pleasantly surprised to find out Mac likes the Decemberists. Even I don't like the Decemberists that much, outside of "O Valencia!" and "The Engine Driver/On the Bus Mall," which are great.

Mac doesn't interest me much beyond football season and Haugh's football knowledge is better. I've always been a fan of his work (He loved Grossman) and most hosts are thin skinned. Besides I know Mac will stop trying in a month. Parkins is the only consistently good host. Build around him and stop falling for the Mac crap.

Fucking lame. They are remote at the UC I guess. Hoiberg interview. Sad.
