Let's say Bernstein makes 400k and Goff makes 150k. So give Bernstein 450k. You save 100k. Bernstein would take it. He's in no position to ask for more than that with two kids ready for college.

So, you're just going to give Bernsie an extra $50k with no discussion, congrats, but you don't think he's in any position to ask for more money?

Listening off and on today, I can't understand the basis for the thought. I honestly prefer Limbaugh to Bernstein.

Switching to ESPN didn't help either.

He could. But if they told him that's the final offer, he's taking it. Like I said, two kids nearing college, ESPN 1000 doesn't like his type and no other radio station in town could offer him more. He can't do TV because he's not good looking. He could write but that's not paying any where near 450k.

It's just simple logic.

Simple question. Do you think Bernstein solo would do less ratings then "B&G"? No way. It would be the same at least and most likely go up because more racist people would listen. Just talking business. Goff hurts the racist demographic. Racist people buy beer and bed sheets too.

Bernstein for 5 hours a day every every weekday for every week of the year is going to be rough, especially as he gets older. If you want him solo to suck up two hours or so sandwiched between the midday show and a proper afternoon show, great. But you can't give him the keys to a full-on afternoon show and not expect him to go even harder in the paint for Team SJW.

Final offer, will you take an extra $50k?

I've got two kids nearing college...probably going to take free money. And nobody likes my type.

8 years ago I liked him solo. I’m not sure I would anymore. He just seems so miserable. I listed to music.

joyless, formulaic and devoid of personality, except as a tiring asshole.

This is better than our old motto.

That's exactly it. Unless it can be quantified and monetized it now has no place on any of his shows. He's joyless, formulaic and devoid of personality, except as a tiring asshole.

You could either put him in a three-hour solo show (say 9-noon) or keep him in afternoons with a new partner or rotating partners (I'd say Bernstein & Friends, but what friends?), but 25 hours each week of pure solo Senor would not work.

As much as Parkins seems to like working solo, I think he needs someone there to talk to if his whole deal is that he's a Score host who's actually a normal human being for once.

Sports are fun, pointless entertainment (except baseball, that is life and death) and I love them for that. How you can take all of the joy from that’s.. I don’t know. I just don’t know.

He's more of a C-3PO.

I was asking my HS son today why he isn't throwing the shot put just to scratch a competitive itch in the off season. He said that the practices were quiet and no fun. That it didn't seem like a team, just joyless.

And there was nothing I could say except that I understand.

IMO, the best pairing with Bernstein is someone who he respects that can bust his balls. Even if you don't like them individually, Rozner or Rosenbloom with him make him a more affable character. That is, except when Rozner starts using his meatball voice every 5 minutes.
