Can we start the petition to get Vandy in with Mac on a full time basis???

Where do I sign?

Deep down - or maybe not so deep - I don't think Mac respects Spiegel. The tension comes from Matt coming to realize this, and Mac failing to conceal it.

Mac and Hood would be good

Can we start the petition to get Vandy in with Mac on a full time basis???

Count me in...

I didn't get to hear much of today... what exactly happened?

Oh Christ, shouldn't you girls be at the nail salon talking gossip 'round about this time?

All of a sudden you're all voice-tone analysts or phonetic experts. Watch a little less FOX primetime and have a little more substantive thought than "I think Mac sounds angry" followed by some nonsensical prattle about supposed feuds or post-consumer regret (or whatever brilliant turn of a phrase comes next).

All of a sudden you're all voice-tone analysts or phonetic experts.

Hmmm judging by the tone of your post I would say that you are slightly agitated. Is Meatpants in the morning starting to get to you as well? Are you experiencing PTFB regret?

There's just been this almost-board-wide pining for something resembling intrigue regarding Mac's show almost since it's debut edition. That's separate and removed from the dipshits that threw their hat into the "I hate this show" or "I hate Meatpants" ring from, oh, 30 minutes into show #1.

It's not people's opinions themselves that are enough to piss-off the Pope as far as I'm concerned, it's the underlying idea that their opinion is based on anything that could even remotely be construed as knowledgeable or informed.

There's just this omnipresent ostinato that doesn't take a reader of great insight to note the fometing posts that just beg for any sign or marker to point to as a means to make some nebulous "point" that either Mac's a dumbass or Meat's not fit for consumption or a combination of the two.

This in turn is then fired in the kiln of more supposition until some fragile little piss-pot of disinformation is taken from cheap-talk status to that of Gospel truth, that it's only a matter of time until things turn sour enough where, ultimately, all involved will look like fools - in what fashion or what form that would be is of no real consequence, since of course the "goal" is to reach the day when the show is no more. Then, in time, a new show would take it's place, and eventually the call would come, quietly at first, that we should pause and remember how good things used to be, and the cycle will repeat anew.

+1 I'm a charter member of the J Hood ALS. I totally agree with Moint about Mac not respecting Spiegel. His buyers remorse is more evident everyday. It is an uncomfortable listen.

I just started listening. They had a really uncomfortable moment when Mac was trying to think of the Departed and referred to it as a Jack Nicholson movie. Meatpants seemed to have all his sensibilities offended that Mac didn't refer to it as a Martin Scorcese (sp?) movie and that Mac gives too much credit for actors.

That might sound like joking around, but their tone's seemed pretty damn aggressive.


Is anyone else terrified of Scorehead's victory march if Mac decides Spiegs isn't the answer?

I agree with Don Tiny.

If Scorehead is leading a charge, you might want to think a little more carefully in getting behind it.

The anti Spiegel group is marching down Michigan avenue tomorrow morning. Meet at Buchingham Fountain at 9:00AM.
