Facial hair has its place in Western society. I can only offer my support to full beards or mustaches. The typical pudgy white dude goatee is awful and so is cultivated douchebag facial stubble. The idea of the playoff beard is dumb. Any fan who grows one with the team should be ritually killed and turned into Soylent Green.


On point, and I will add that one should not grow a full beard, if it doesn't grow in completely. The bare spots look stupid.

Anytime some plutocrat cooks up an idiotic way to destroy fun in the service of profit, you can set your watch to Dan pushing it as a great idea.


only after it was on Deadspin first.


Petchesky faceplanted on the very first sentence:

NBC appears to “get” hockey in a way that ESPN never wanted to.


Wrongo. ESPN, first imagined as a broadcast outlet for Hartford Whalers games, understood and embraced hockey just fine for years until Mark Shapiro came along and decided he didn't want it there anymore so that they could run Pete Rose and Dale Earnhardt biopics instead.

Against all calculable odds, firing Score interns made the podcast subtitles worse.

Yeah, they said that CBS will no longer have interns. It was a corporate decision.

Why would any company refuse free labor?

Generally, there are rules about what interns can and can't do. It sounds like CBS was using their free labor to do paid-labor things.

I was fortunate to intern at a station that didn't enforce those rules very much, and I was fortunate not to be a complete idiot like most radio interns are, so I got to dabble in traffic/continuity, production, show prep, and even help voice a few spots rather than just toil in the promotions closet folding t-shirts and affixing labels to the prize wheel. I think they also deduced that when it comes to the folding of t-shirts, I am a complete idiot. I fell up.

I often look back with moist eyes on my days fetching Mitch Michaels' lunch ( hey man, you fly I buy ) during the Rock n Roll Diner "request" hour on CKG.

Mitch Michaels! A Chicago radio legend for sure. His teenage son ODed a few months ago, sad stuff. DuPage County claims another.
