October ratings: S&W (9a - 1p) had a 6.1, which was 3rd among men 25-54. DMS had a 5.3, which was 6th, m25-54. S&W were the most listened to (adult men) in time slot on AM band. TDMS was second most listened to on AM band.

October of '08, Score posted a 3.7, so we've raised it considerably. Also lifted numbers radically from Sept. of '09, from a 3.7.

S&W have a solid show. I always have said that. We're pleased to be on their asses in only our fourth full month together. For the record, it took MJH three years to get any traction.

Sportsradio is VERY healthy on both outlets right now. M&M were first among adult men, with M&H right on their ass at No.2. M&H are posting morning numbers NEVER posted before by the Score's bevy of morning teams. In afternoons, B&B are nippin' at CJH's heels also.

I'm not in the game for only a few ratings months... or for the next year or two. I'm in it for the long haul and am not going anywhere anytime soon. Giggle, if you like, over TDMS not being No.1 yet. It will get there. Habits change slowly. I know that. The pick-up truck with Indiana plates didn't drop me off downtown for the first time this past summer. Very pleased with the quick growth and all of us on the show know it's headed in the right direction.

Wait a second Kirk, since when do you not like Spiegel?

Miss a little.

I actually miss Murph & would gladly listen to him in mid-days again.

Mac, I know you can't & won't discuss this publicly, but I know that you know that sooner or later you must address your partner. He is draggin' you down big time.

The one thing I like about Mac is he tells it like he feels, and he feels Lovie SUCKS and he does! That was a bad loss like all loses are bad,like all wins are good. Mac won't kiss ass like the rest of em give him hell Dan

Same was said about Harry for all those years and is still said today. MJH was a fantastic show despite this boards loathing of Harry and a few here seem to have the same thoughts on Mr. Meatpants but the show had made leaps and bounds over the months and the ratings show it. I do listen to both shows and yes, S&W have a better over all show at this point and many have credited to how the show is produced and I would agree with that statement.

Congrats Mac and slowly but surely you are shutting these clowns up here and its fun to see.

="Scorehead let me get this straight. S&W have the better show, but you congratulate Mac?
What do you think about Meatpants? Does he help or hurt Mac?
If Mac was either solo or with anyone else, he would be #1 in his timeslot

I guess I'll have to hold your hand and walk you through this one Potsie. Mac stated the ratings are up in the slot he took over and the show has gotten better over time so to pass along kudos is wrong? Can't help you there pal if you don't understand that one.

I have no issues with Matt at all. He stands up to Mac and say's what's on his mind and is not afraid to tell Boers and Bernstein to pound sand during transition. He is Very insightful with his baseball and football acumen and has a very good sense of humor and does add a side to the show I like. Im not supposed to like him because negative creeps on a message board say we shouldn't?? Barking up the wrong tree there fella.

I have said for a long time that the meatball callers bring down all the shows on the Score because they are meatballs and really don't have a clue what they are saying most day's and that relects on the hosts in my mind on a daily basis. I don't remember Dan taking stupid calls from people to often on his last show and let me say his last show was very well produced and was a work in progress for sometime.

Having said all that , you guys can have your likes and dislikes but I give Dan credit for taking what is said here with a grain of salt because at the end of the day he still has a better job than most of us and is doing what he loves to do.

You people are hilarious. The show makes a significant jump in the ratings, but the show "still sucks." What excuse are you people going to make when Mac hits #1 for his timeslot again?.

If I remember correctly, the same thing happened with Mac in the MJH days and has always happened with Murph. The facts never seem to mesh with the opinions I read regarding either of them on this board.
