I noticed they finally purged Murph from the WSCR website. I guess his contract finally ran out? Wonder if he'll turn up anywhere?? I know many people couldn't stand him, but to bad SCR couldn't find a niche for him on weekends. |

He could get Jim Laski's role on WGN. I bet he'd do just as well ratings wise. |

Murph should do well, no matter where he goes. Best of luck to him |

I'd listen to Murph if he was on WGN. Right now about the only time I listen to WGN is late on Sat and Sun. nights with Nick DiGilio on my way home from work. I hear Jim Memelo and George Ofman from time to time and yes, I'll even switch to the Cubs game if the Sox are just a pile of suck (which is the case now of course). |

It's too bad that he's gone, have to imagine that a PD with at least half a brain cell would have figured out a way to (at least) use him for the remainder of his contract. I'm not a big Cubs fan, or Murph guy, but did enjoy the consistency/dependability of hearing his show on The Score. And that's what I don't get - clearly the guy got ok numbers, and had a strong fanbase, but a guy like Larry is chosen "in place" of him? I just don't get it, while I know some think he's ok (in certain situations), I really can't imagine that he has anywhere near the amount of fanbase that Murph did/does. But, much like the local TV stations are doing - I'm sure the PD sees Larry as his link to the young demo. Sure he's young, it's just too bad he sucks. |

The reason is simple: Rosen was Holmes agent - and Murph is "old Score" - meaning not invented here. The relationship between the two makes you wonder if Rosen is getting a kickback from Holmes in some way. |

I'm surprised Murph has not popped up somewhere. It's his primetime right now,baseball season. |

I just don't get it, while I know some think he's ok (in certain situations), I really can't imagine that he has anywhere near the amount of fanbase that Murph did/does. I think the fact that no one else wants to work with Murph might have something to do with it. |
