been great!! always positive at 6am in the morning. never a dull moment. complete opposite of tuning into the score at the time... so fucking dull i want to run my truck into a lightpole just to wake up. mike still got it. never lost it. and his partner is starting to talk like him too  i listen on the iheart radio app and just choose one of the foxsports stations.... works great! he talked about beating kids today, it was soothing to hear.

Mike North is like Chris Berman at this point....cool when you were a kid, but annoying now. I wouldn't mind him filling in for a day or two for someone, but that's about it. |

Dr. Kenneth Noisewater wrote: He beats other people's kids. kind of like that one super-good player in every little league league across the USA, eh? when i was doing it the kid's name was robbie rosmus and he was on my team in my 2nd to last year, and i remember watching the dude take BP crushing the flamed-out-ex-minor-leaguer throwing as hard as he could to him. he couldn't pitch for us for like 1/3 or 1/2 of the season because his arm was sore from throwing curveballs in the travel league, and of course curveballs were banned in our prole league. when he finally could pitch he was a dominant ace while hitting .600 with a bunch of home runs and etc. i wouldnt be surprised if he made the minors in some sport somewhere. in my basketball youth that kid was the legendary chicago rush QB russ michna.... he was not only bigger/taller/faster/better than everyone in the league but his dad was also his coach, so his team would routinely throw up like 48pts of which russ was good for like 34-40pts. and we woulda prolly beat his team in the league semis if not for a crucial late blocking foul called on our little shit / coach's son ken frazier, who i distinctly remember standing there at midcourt and crossing his arms to brace for impact from a charging russ michna who completely leveled him..... and got the star call in the form of a blocking/loose-ball foul on ken which led to free throws and our demise in the waning seconds. fuckin a! |

It has to kill him having no presence in Chicago. His entire existence was built on being able to walk into places in the city and tell them he is Mike North. |

Dahl got a three year deal I think though. They have a contract to carry Rush Limbaugh, too. They'll find a way out of that one. No inside knowledge here, just connecting the dots of Sox pbp and knowing that Cumulus has wanted to move WLS in a sportsier direction for several years now. Dahl, you can work around, but Big John Howell and Brandmeier probably aren't going to last there, and why should they? The damn station is losing to Carpenters songs. Between White Sox and Notre Dame coverage, WLS will be the official station of louts from Beverly. |

Whatever you want to say about North, he's a hustler. He'll survive like a cockroach. But everyone becomes a has-been at some point. That 28 year old bar owner who is desperately trying to get Zombie Dust on his taps doesn't want to know Fritzy Konstantelos. Every day the world takes away something else that I loved. I'll be ready to die soon.

Come to think of it, replacing Rush Limbaugh with Mike North may not address the corporate concerns of selling ad time for ignorant racism in middays. |

Curious Hair wrote: Yeah, it's quite Sisyphean. Never fear, he'll turn up at 890 when they flip to sports at the end of the year. or not? Ed Sherman wrote: It hardly would be a surprise if WLS flipped to a sports-talk format considering it soon will be airing more than 300 games per year. Dickey, though, said there aren't any plans to change from its current news/talk format. "It's a fun thing to talk about (going to all sports)," Dickey said. "But we still want to be all things Chicago for our listeners." That is the preferred format for Jerry Reinsdorf's teams, according to Brooks Boyer, the Sox's vice president and chief marketing officer. Boyer stressed repeatedly if the terms were right, the Sox would have stayed at WSCR-AM 670 and the Bulls at WMVP-AM 1000. However, he believes the arrangement works better if the flagship station for a team isn't an all-sports station, where 24/7 criticism seems to run counter to promoting the team and game broadcasts. "We have a chance to be on a true flagship station," Boyer said. "Part of what makes (the sports-talk stations) popular is that they look at us with a critical eye. We don't have a problem with that. Those guys are just doing their jobs. It's just something we won't have to deal with (being on WLS)." So Jerry prefers that his teams not be talked about outside of games. Poor Bernstein carrying all that GarPax water for nothing. |
