This station is a disaster. I don't think Mac would ever set foot in there unless they REALLY opened the checkbook. It's a laughingstock and would be a career killer for him.

If Mac used The Game as leverage during negotiations, I'm sure the other side of the table just laughed at him. He's not going there.

He might not be going there, but maybe this is why you need to post about looking for a new job every 6 months? Maybe you really dont have a sense of what is good and what can become something. It's called having vision of what can be done.

I will take Larry Werts business record over douchebags business thoughts today.

I know how much douchebag loves to point out others are gettiing made a bitch for the day with their inadequate thoughts and I usually don't join in, as I think it is pussy move, so I will be the first to point out how poor of day D bag is having with some attempst at advanced thoughts.

This could be the "fixer up" project for Mac...if the money is right.

But I said something about Kaps car (new vette) and Mac did say he saw it the other day! ---Slip??????????

I did see Mac a few weeks ago in a parking lot. Looked like a mighty fine vehicle.

If the game offered Mac 80 G's to work from home and contribute once or twice a week,I bet he'd be a happy camper.

Mac wouldn't get out of bed for 80g's...even on a PT basis.

He could always do the show in bed, but he'd probably have to be standing on said bed.

Welcome back Jeff.

Olin Kreutz!!

Every monday. That's actually pretty cool. Dude is full of piss and vinegar. That's the type of personality ya need.

It's a startup station and maybe they could have had a little more planning, but its not like David Hernandez is behind them, WGN is.

WGN is losing the cubs and in time, I can see them losing the Hawks, they are not going to want to be in a bidding war, thus creating their own programming.

They need a better signal and I believe they are ready to buy, once one hits the sale block and you need to have everything ready, a following, programming etc.

It's a great business plan that still needs to be executed, but you start with a plan when you do things.

This is like people that call me and ask to find them commercial space for a new business.

one guy wanted to open a bagel shop.

I asked if he had a bagel shop. Nope.

I then asked if he works in a bagel shop. Nope.

does he have a plan? can he make bagels? Nope, but in his own words, :"it cant be that hard"....

Told him he needs a plan and it might help if he knows how to make some bagels.

I would love to see Mitch's annual business plan that he submits to CBS.

I'm sure the BP looks fine, I'd like to be a fly on the wall in the meeting where he has to go over all of his shortfalls.

Well we missed our ratings projections and our ad revenue was down 29.8%... BUT we just hired a former Bear as a midday host!

Who is it? A former QB, one of the 85 guys?

No..... it's a former long snapper with no real broadcast experience.

.......

And we cut salary by dumping a long time fan favorite!

......

All that matters is ad revenue, which is obviously driven by ratings. I believe The Score billed $25 Million last year, which was up a few % from the previous year.
