That sounds like it's right up Jurko's alley.

I really wish WSCR would hire Jurko. Hes a perfect fit for the Score if they want to return to being the voice of the fan. Mac & Jurko would be 100X better than Mac & Spiegs. Mac, Jurko & Hood would be even better.

They chose not to pick up his option. I am guessing due to the size of the renewal was an issue, but they still dint make him any offer. Just paid him to stay home.

Mac didnt do a good job of staying home during that time.

A Mac n Jurk show would be pretty damn good. Preferably in the 1-6 slot slot. Speigs offers about as much as Harry

They don't. That seems pretty obvious.

Voice of the fan???

Don't they have Boers and Bernstein for that?

Who wants to hear the voice of the fan?

The voice of the fan is fat, uneducated, high school dropout that thinks all problems will be solved by firing a coach or GM.

Too belligerent and honest for ESPN.

Mac was earning too much $$$$ by radio standards when he got the hook about 4 years ago. I think it was the folks in Bristol, CT, not State Street downtown where ESPN Radio 1000 AM is stationed locally, that made the call to drop Mac from their roster.

Dan McNeil was only fired from ESPN once.

No, that's the voices of callers that are carefully screened onto the show to get yelled at and mocked.

Why did you single out White Sox fans?

Yeah, sure.

It isn't like I've made the claim that I have never listened to the show or even that I never listen anymore. I still turn it on from time to time, never said I didn't.


So take that weak sauce bullshit, put it in a tub, pour gasoline on yourself and light a match. While on fire you could run out in front of a bus for extra points.

You listen and post about it nearly every day. It's ok. No need to get yourself all excited, sweetie...

And please...Never, EVER, use "weak sauce" again if you can help it. Thank you.

I know it may sound crazy, Ivan but it is possible to follow along with the show every day and not listen at all just by reading the thread.

I know it is. It's just not possible for some people. Some people are obsessed and pretend that they aren't.

I don't listen "nearly every day", I do post about it nearly every day because that's the forum where the action is.

Pretty simple, child, even you can understand!

No it isn't. Are people posting full transcripts? All that is posted is snippets of things that are biased because they fit whatever particular agenda the poster has for or against the show.
