Ive noticed less posts. Less Rodeo. Even less Beardown. Us haters arent posting here as much. North has always believed that publicity, good or bad, is what he creates thus making money for his bosses.

Us haters are posting less.

The defenders are posting less.

The fact is less and less are paying attention to him no matter how stupid his comments are. No one considers him a relevant sports personality. And he is an ugly fucker. The "ugly fucker" thing makes it hard to succeed in TV. I may be wrong.

I just wonder how many actually make this clown part of their day? Were all of us curious? Of course but now we all know what his show is. More of the same old same old.

will someone step up (other than Ike) and say this is a GOOD show. Say that its entertaining?

I would be curious what Dolphin thinks.

The time slot is bad. People aren't watching it beacause they aren't able to and it is not worth it to record it and watch later.

Do you watch Comcast Sports Net non-live sports programming in the afternoon or at night?

True. By people, I meant the people here that don't like him.

TV + Morning = Oprahites

To be at work at 8 AM, gotta leave no later than 7:15, wake up at 6:30?

Everyone has a different schedule, but who is fitting in a sit down for anything on TV, especially Notre Dame HS B Ball highlights?

I am not even sure if the show was good people would be watching.

No you stream it right off northy's cock. The sound waves go from his cock through your jawbone and up into your ears.

what do you think north's pitch is to potential advertisers/sponsors?

"hey, remembers me? mike nort. i'ze had the number one morning radio show in chicago and i'ze won all these awards that bebe paid fer and i'ze helps over 200 charities. i'ze got this new tv show that has about 20,000 viewers and it is revilutioonizin sports radio/webio/tv talk. say why don't youze give me a retainer of $50,000 and i'll talk about yer company non-stop on air and i'll let you hang out with me and i'll let youze take me to gibson's and we'll meet some young broads and .... you get my drift. No, do youze know how big i'ze is in this town? maybe i'ze buy yer company out and have you fired. "

with the economy on the downslide for at least the next year, ad $$ are going to be SCARCE. who in their right mind would fork out bucks to advertise on a show that has no audience? jen jen better get them dancin shoes on or get ready to move back in with the p's, because you will be out on the street sooner than later.

I watched today at 8. Saw the rejoin where they're all goofy at Chicago landmarks giggling at wach other and eating hot dogs. It was really cheesy and clearly filmed in the cold weather. It's kind of hard to sell Jiggs at Wrigley Field in winter eating a hot dog. Who's idea was that?
Anyhow, I listened for about 3 minutes before I decided to check in on what that hottie Ana Belaval was up to.

Good Point Fan! The Morning TV audience is probably more female or news enthusiasts. The men are at work, getting ready for work or probably watching the news or getting kids off to school. MIke North Viewing will not be in the team photo. I think Comcast took a gamble hoping that the Mike and Mike audience might flip over. Their gamble was low in risk but it has failed. With the sound down, its the same show. Other than a couple of boobs (Mike and Dan) here and there.

I am either out of the house already or getting ready to leave by the time it comes on. If I'm home, I don't have a TV on as the rest of the house is sleeping.

I'd probably occasionally tune in if the replayed it at 7 p.m.

Shit, do you think that fat ass cares where he's wolfing down hot dogs? If they showed Jiggs eating brats and hot dogs in Siberia in the opening it would be an easy sell. As time goes on, the poor guy looks more and more like the Nutty Professor.

Poor Jiggs.

CAn anyone say that North's show is entertaining? Anyone? Is that not the point of a TV show? If someone ANYONE can say they are entertained then please give your side. Even if I didnt hate the fucker and wish him a slow suffering death, I honestly cannot see the appeal.

I wonder if the columnists that were promoting his show and how great the initial numbers were (LOL) will be honest and say how much they have declined. I doubt that Ted Cox, Ed Sherman or the other hacks have the balls to do that.

Well, they spend a lot of time blowing anyone on air, I doubt they would really point out Mr. Irrelevant's irrelevance. They never brought up the absymal failure of don'tbetme.com after basically promoting it.

I still haven't seen the show. My days off do not include waking up at 6am to watch t.v. for 3 hours...

Post subject:  Re: Honeymoon over?

I catch some here and there, but actually sitting down and watching the whole show, its impossible because it is bad and its also in a horrible time slot for me personally. I can say this, the show is no different then what you heard on the MNMS and we all know how that was. :lol:

The other red flag is that Pappy said it would be re-broadcast later in the day, my guy at comcast told me that was never promised and wont happen, they just dont have a time slot to do it and the feeling is that it isnt worth re-playing.

Bottom line, you can tell who runs the show, the bits and interviews are bad and they are trying to be the monsters from the 90's, no one wants that, so it will die a slow death, just like everything else pappy has done over the last 5 years.

global warming is quietly being mentioned as reason why the bloom is off of the rose for the monsters show.

The slow part is very disappointing to hear. They should just pull the plug now.
