"ESPN's Chris Berman doing play by play on MNF last night insults the legacies of Howard Cosell, Don Meredith and Frank Gifford - among others. just abysmal."

At least they didn't have Mike and Mike do the second game again.

Anything to get some bool publicity for this guy.

Waiting for the run down michigan ave naked.

BigFan, Chet Coppock WAS sports talk long before The SCORE & ESPN Radio came around.

SHARK, the last thing I need is a listen in Sports radio in this town. I have been around as long as you, plus the rightful credit goes to Swirsky on his WCFL Am 1000 show, that was the first sports talk in this town.

All said, Coppock would still do anything to get publicity these days. The guy loves to troll other sports guys just to get in the picture.

I am surprised he cannot get a Les gig somewhere. Maybe too proud or not broke enough?

He refers to the new book as a "best seller" in a tweet on September 2, even though the book is not available at retail stores or even amazon. Which "best seller" list is he referring to?

Can you only buy it from him? Very exclusive!

I go back to the Swirsky show on LS which was good but also The Sportswriters on WGN (or was it BBM?) radio pre-dated Coppock long before they did TV. Bentley, Gleason, Telander, etc. were the forefathers.

No calls so Swirsk had the first true sports talk show but The Sportswriters was still a great show and at least put the genre out there...

In my opinion "Monday Night Football" is no longer as big a deal after it moved to cable. "Sunday Night Football" is the new "Monday Night Football".

Way back in the day, my older step brother got his new double cassette stereo system and put his old 8 track /Tuner in the basement for storage.

I took it and put it in my room. Yup , rocking Briefcase Full of Blues in the 8 track! and it was a Sunday night and went o scan the Am dial on my NEW Stereo system!

I get to AM 1000 and some lady is screaming about her kids going to play in a soccer match that was cancelled down in FLA and she wants her money....and my guy SWIRSK, taking the call...

It was a late Sunday night and he might have been at the Thirsty Whale!
