Amir's Bulls thoughts were always EXACT continuances of Dan's earlier points, it was uncanny. He never provided wholly new points of view, just nudging Dan's thoughts a little bit forward. His emails/texts would also track quite closely with Dan's preferred manner of speech.

Couldn't they have come up with some more original names

Rudy - white guy
Jalen - black guy
Amir - not a black or white guy

It's posts like this that let you know this account is a put-on and the guy behind it is way more clever than the character he plays most of the time.

That would actually be something, if he's been here the entire time.

Used to love it when Cecil (Get a haircut hippie!) would chime in back in the day with Kevin Matthews, too bad Bernstein is not smart enough to pull off somewhat entertaining fake voices, but you have to at least make the fake voices sound different or at least have different viewpoints than yours.

The brilliance of Kevin Matthews is that his puppet was Jimmy Shorts and Jimmy Shorts' puppet was Cecil.

It eventually drove him mad but he presented some pretty high theater of the mind...and Mitch Rosen was his producer Chunga

Bernstein is a talented impressionist but lacks the ability to step outside himself, so all he can really do is slip into Mike North voice to make a dumb point and then immediately refute it.

The following was posted on Facebook by a friend yesterday:

To WSCR listeners, especially Bernstein. Today he was doing a read for Cameron Hugh's wine. During the read, in interjected the name LaBron James. Since I am not s fan of LaBrons grandstanding, I sent a simple text to the Score. The following is the text back and forth with Dan B. without the sponsor of the text line which is Rosen Hyundai of Algonquin.

F: You had me until you said LaBron
D: Huh? Why?
F: His personal sommelier is a star.
D: Oh. You're probably just a racist. Just saw the 815.
F: Really? You're going with the broad brush because of an area code. I thought you were more intelligent to make that leap. Don't care for his self promoting. No other reason. Don't care for patrick Reed for the same reason.
D: Rrriiiiiiight. The mask is slipping, champ.
F: Why does it have to be a race thing?

So Dan McNeil gets fired for a tweet about a female sports reporters questionable attire as a football sideline reporter, but Dan B can paint anyone in the 815 area code that is not a fan of LaBron as a racist.

Yes, yes he can. Especially those who can’t spell LeBron correctly.

He’s also been doing it on air for the better part of two decades, so I’m not sure that text is particularly revealing.

To those of us who enjoyed the mean radio days, getting an actual Bob from the 815 was pure gold.

dan bernstein is an absolute hack. he doesnt deserve the attention.

solidifying his sjw dorkiness.

this morning - telling us that the movie 'ferris bueller's day off', exemplified white privilege. arrogant enough to think that john hughes made this film specifically for bernstein and his dorky deerfield crew.

right daniel, no one else ever cut school and had a blast doing it - regardless of race or income background. ingratiating poser.

Today, Kamala would arrest his parents.

Wouldn't mind being locked up with he mama

i dont know about white privilege but more like rich privilege.

never liked that movie. ferris was a complete dickhead.

I caught 5 minutes of the new show the other day and she sounds like a bubbly 13 year old girl trying to do a show with her over the hill grumpy father Dan.

I've had a chance to listen a few times recently and it seems Dan is really trying to show off his technical knowledge. When he starts talking about dual staggered screens and other esoteric concepts that would seem to appeal only to a very small niche of listeners, it feels more like boasting how much more he knows than his new partner rather than engaging the audience.

I did get a chuckle when he casually referred to Boylan's "quote unquote offense."

_________________

Dan has been like that with basketball for as long as I've been a listener. Part of the reason he had such a bug up his ass about people getting Hawks fever in 08-09 was that it took away time he could have spent babbling about Vinny not running "triple-drop reverse-screen stagger-skip sets" or some bullshit no one cares about.

Yeah, you're probably right, and it wasn't as noticeable with McKnight as McKnight seemed willing to get into the weeds with him on that stuff. Now it's just awkward when he delves into his pick-and-pop talk and then there's dead air as Leila figures out how to respond.

He has a tendency of doing that with football too especially if he has a pro player, coach or expert on. Instead of saying blocking or receiving tight end, they will use that Y or U tight end lingo. Or instead of saying nose guard or DT they will say three technique. And honestly, the majority of the audience is like “what”.

“This player has A gap responsibilities.” Okay gotcha.

Arguably nothing better than a guy re-watching a short run to describe it on radio in a language you don’t understand.
