Spiegel needed the money and, unlike Goff, didn't have any other employment prospects. That's why he accepted his demotion. I wouldn't say he "took it like a man", though, since he frequently unloaded on Mac when presented with the opportunity to do so. He seems to think of himself as a star but doesn't realize he is a thoroughly expendable bit player who isn't even as entertaining as the inarticulate Shane Riordan or the pointlessly rambling Chris Tannehill.

They are filtering and diluting the product to the point that it is at best tedious, likely due to numerous contributing factors that have been discussed here frequently.

Have always heard that the best pro wrestling bits are basically that person magnified by 1,000%, too many of the current hosts are trying to be something they are not, and really have very little emotional investment in local sports teams, hard to pull of a daily talk sports talk show under those circumstances, and they are afraid they will be exposed by actually interacting with people that disagree with them. Do also find it interesting that they have resorted to playing stuff from other markets where the hosts go off on rants because they actually do care about the local teams or allow callers to challenge them, incredibly lame, but an indictment of the stations inability to actually create any entertaining content.

rich and slutty...I can work with that

Personally, I'd rather they drop the current partnerships with teams like the Cubs, and unshackle the hosts from stirring the pot. I don't really care if they lose access to the locker rooms. I think it would be a more entertaining product.

Why in God's name would she do that? Is it a court order?

If I knew what the score would of been like the last half decade or more, I'd of never griped about B&B as constructed back then with matty and goff.

Would love to hear an unfiltered 30th anniversary show with Pappy, Mac, and Uncle Terry. Odd to hear the current staff do this missing almost all of the stations Mount Rushmore guys.

Terry is slipping sadly. Terry was praise happy. Called Larry a genius. Waiting for him to salute the bar staff.

Terry slipped, fell and hasn't been able to get up since 2010 or so. And he really was never all that great to begin with.

He was slurring his speech a bit

If Terry was pressured, and coached up to praise the current hosts that's despicable considering the hell he's been through with his health.

I don’t see any way in the world that terry would be pressured into saying anything. He would tell them to go fuck themselves

Terry was definitely pointed, nudged, and steered in the current host topic direction. The "monumental" in Chicago sports radio annals Leila / Terry magical meeting was thrust into the discussion by Larry at 1:20 into Terry's visit.

He should post here.

That's pretty pathetic. Beardown should be a VIP over that clown.

Yessir! Count your blessings. He was definitely still sharp.

the rambling grimmace account has been around for 8 years and has 7149 followers. pretty good for some guy but also, not good enough that you should be going to score events and expecting any kind of VIP treatment. sounds like the guy is taking himself too seriously?
