The show is dead folks. The return of Mike "Man of the Fans" Murphy was the final star to align in the overstuffed sports talk radio sky.

If Murph gets his own morning show than it's curtains for Mac and he will be forced to slink back to his "palatial estate" and make videos with Chet and Nort'. The Radio universe will have come full circle as the prophecy foretold.

On the Docket:
Box score analysis of sports.
Weezing
Speigs trying to save the show
Old music references for the hip teens
Vague and veiled references about stuff that is being talked about on the board in an attempt to drum up interest.

I Predict! Another solid, if half-hearted effort by the boys.

Gotta do better if you want that afternoon gig, Mac!

I can't wait to see if they unveil the "Thick as a Bick" song.

Is this a Score intern's attempt at generating some interest in the Mac section?

Murph is on Sunday mornings with Fred from 9-1.

Wrong show. The weezing begins at 1:00.

The guys might need to go on a live bender or something. The act is getting tired.

That's because Dan and Terry have their own CSFMB emissary.

I've actually been listening to M&H more than this show lately. :shock:

I've really tried to give the show a chance this week, but there just hasn't been much of anything that would even qualify as interesting. Which is crazy because I did enjoy listening to Mac when he returned.

You have a lazy host doing the same stuff everyday with no real preparation, just winging it. Why really listen? The lack of interest turns into lack of ratings quickly.

Would anyone here give Mac a big longterm contract if you were running the station?

The Mac show doesn't give us much to work with, Frank...sad but true. The show thread-actual show dichotomy is one of give and take. Actually the thread may be more parasitic in nature, if the host doesn't have anything to give than the tape worm is SOL.

So, what you're really saying is the Mac Show is no more original than an Elmhurst Steve call/text.

Interesting, now we are getting somewhere

Anytime Jason is on, the show is noticeably better. The energy is just different.

Good stuff.

No. I'm saying this is the same tired idea that is posted all the fucking time here by you and other people.

We get it. You think the show sucks. Its not funny and not original. Thats great. The same can be said of this thread and your thoughts on the show. Come up with something new or keep to yourself son.

Painfully obvious.

Make that move, Mitch. You've done the research, you've had enough discussions about it. Waiting until June is just stupid if that's what you are doing. No shame in doing something that clearly would make a show better.

Despite Macs disdain for the board and his FB over love, I'm still a fan. Just not a fan of his current show...

It's not so much that Meat sucks, it's just that he doesn't bring out Mac's good qualities if that means anything....

Jeff and I had the same exact discussion Wednesday

Goff makes Mac a little younger, and the show is more upbeat.

Yeah I don't mean to say Speigs is a bad host. He just doesn't click with Mac.

So if he is gone today and gone on Monday does that mean he is back to skipping hit and run just like last year?

Any Given Sunday was not terrible. It was just ok.

And the Air Up There was fun/bad and so is Blue Chips...

I really hate Brussel sprouts. I think I'm going to start a daily thread in the Food/Drink section letting everyone know this.

Or maybe I just won't eat them. :roll:

I think the problem with Spiegel is that he tries too hard to act just like Mac. Also, his reliance on the "we're happy for ya" drop has gotten very, very old.
