Thanks, RP Bryan. There's a reason why the Bears aren't on The SCORE, and hopefully that explains it.

It does. That was very informative and for once, your spelling out of the networks call letters seemed to fit, since the discussion was about radio stations under the same umbrealla

I bet he'll also mention creepy Jerry Sandusky electing NOT to testify in his sex abuse trial...

I hate this show. It's so predictable and stupid. I can't wait til it starts...

Is it really that far fetched?

Some people like to listen to people they disagree with.

I thought most people agreed the 80's were the golden age of the NBA.

Does Bernsie actually say this? Numbers dont lie. The ratings would have to increase by OVER 50% to get near the Bulls ratings of the 90's. Sabrmetric that jerkoff.

Not only will he mention it, he'll bitch and moan that he and the listeners are being cheated by Sandusky not testifying. I'm sure the transcript of his testimony was 80% of the show today.

I bet all the 24/7 news channels would've carried that creep's testimony, and perhaps the broadcast networks would've pre-empted regular programming, too.

It's my understanding that Sandusky actually wanted to take the stand, but his lawyers said no.

How many craps tomorrow will be for Joe Amendola?

He probably will when they retry him after the jury deadlocks or a mistrial is declared.

The anger confuses me. Always will. Not everyone, but there are a lot of people here who really seem bothered and put off by a radio show that they say they hate but can't stop listening too...

You'd think a bunch, but if there's a verdict, "WYC" might get bagged. Gary from Evanston won't be thrilled if that happens...

Well if you truly hate, I guess its a little weird.

I dont hate Bernstein. I like/admire him. I think he's wrong a good amount of the time. And he's smart so its fun to "debate" him here.

I dont get a kick out of ripping Grobber for saying some meatball thing.

I do however like taking such an intelligent guy to task when he's wrong or baiting or both.


And they crack me up. Boers moreso, but Bernstein is funny as hell

Bernstein brings out the worst in all of us. It has been amazing to read the show threads over the past two weeks. There is nothing but anger, disgust, hatred, and many other negative emotions mainly generated by Bernstein. Even Mac is feeling the sting. I can't tell if this is a CSFMB revolt against B&B, but it sure seems like the sentiment has shifted. In the past, I felt like it was 50/50 if you liked this show. Now most listen reluctantly or not at all. Lots of PTFB.

I for one have not listened since late last year and am more smiley for it.

Now that makes sense and I get all that. But I do not think you represent most of the others around here who seem to hate the show, but yet are listening every day. I am like KI, never got that one.

Lay off my guy!!!

It's like the people who argue with me. They want to try and prove they can hang with the big boys.

Awesome.


Thats probably the biggest compliment you can give a radio host

BR, I have seen people try. I can't always say that you win, but it is not for lack of effort. You go monkey daddy on their a$$e$ and just keep coming back until they quit in despair.

I love the show. I think they are just as right/wrong as everyone else in sports talk radio. They are, however, more entertaining than just about everyone else at the Score.

There's a lot of "they suck" talk that happens here. If they suck, why do you listen? That's what I don't get. It says more about the listener than it does them. Mully and Hanley blow, haven't heard anything from them in months. Don't plan on ever listening again. Did the same to North. Suck is suck. Bad is bad. Why waste your time?

Not taking about people who just "disagree with what they say" or anything like that. I guess I can sort of get that.

But if someone finds it so predictable and their opinions consistantly bad or offensive, why bother?

The only show I care for is Mac, and I just don't listen at work. I gave up on sports talk even though I traditionally loved it because of the negative emotions that are spewed by these shows. It came to a head for me with the Bears and Lovie. I get enough of it from the Daily Herald, which I read front to back every day. I happen to be a Lovie supporter, and just couldn't take the over analysis of even the smallest Bears' mistake. Even when they win, it would generally turn into some negative attack on the front office and coaching staff. That's what did it for me.

I enjoy all the hand wringing on these boards, and I have found you guys to be a high level of entertainment. I actually get the gist of the shows without all the aggravation.
