ED SHERMAN SAYS: From the good idea department, WSCR-AM program director Mitch Rosen instituted a new feature Monday. Called "Best of the Best," SCR will replay interviews or exchanges on previous shows in 60- to 70-second sound bites throughout the day. It gives the listener a chance to hear what he has been missing. |

Just a little hyperbole there..."best of the best"? They play clips from every show. Every day. So how can all of them be the best? It might actually be a good idea if executed differently. If they didn't play them non-stop, and not all the time- just when there actually WAS something good that happened, it could be effective. Yesterday I heard a clip from Mully & Hanley with Boomer Esiason talking about Romo and Jessica Simpson. THAT was the best of the best?

Ed Sherman should be fired immediately. |

As I said in the other thread, "Best of the Best" does not work when THERE IS NOTHING HAPPENING IN CHICAGO SPORTS RIGHT NOW. It's just ill-timed cross-promotion. Wait until there are stories happening--not Joakim Noah shit--to promote North, Mully/Hanley, and Murph by way of Boers & Bernstein, when the soundbites might actually be compelling. |

I wouldn't care if they did it once an hour, but they seem to do it during every commerical break, and it gets be extremely annoying. It sounds like an infomerical. |

And it undercuts the talk time for the show you're actually trying to listen to. Guess what, if I want to hear Murph's show, I'll tune in to hear it between noon and two. |

Kind of like a 'best of show" the same kind I have been pushing for years. Do they still have Score values? LOL That cracked me up. Not only was it a joke, they used my tape recorder from 1978 to record the shows. |

That statement is why Ed should stick with his bad golf coverage. |

. They had a best of show in the pre 5 a.m. hours of the glory years. Great stuff. |

Well I guess in theory that while not enjoying host #A, you hear the blurb for host #B, decide he's more your style, and you adjust your listening habits to pick up his show. Which begs why you were listening to host A in the first place. A more funny ad campaign would be to run a segment of Mike & Mike, ask why you're listening to lame shit like that, and push the North Morning Fiasco instead. (Funny because I'd rather listen to M&M, because it doesn't offend) |

At what point does someone there realize pushing Norths show just isnt worth it? |

I think they do, I was actually listening to some of the late night garbage because they were doing some post game interviews I wanted to hear from one of the football games on a Sun night, and all of a sudden Andy Garcia cuts in for Score values to interview some guy about tea or some hand cream or something, brutal stuff |

I'd prefer some kind of archives show. I know I was once watching old Letterman shows and clips on NBC.com . Don't be scared to give me some HFC, or a North classic moment, classic interviews, going back to historic Chicago sports moments (day after a championship), hell, even that lame 10 year anniversary party (who doesn't need TDubb every once in a while)? Even if it was a real short segment and/or filled with commercials, I'd still listen. |
