Yup. About 15 minutes before Parkins said he can't "say anything" until tomorrow.

They are both the future of the station. This was a good day for both.

Lot's of subtle references here...

"...and the moves make sense."

Sure you're talking about the NFL and Bears :lol:

Bernstein is being demoted to middays, not a good day for him as he is off the drive times and just had the shot across his bow. Parkins is the only one promoted of the two

bernstein's false jollity was priceless. He sounded like Tony the Tiger. "I'm GREEEEEAT!" Okay, dude.

Yes, but as others have said, Mac will just get bored again and walk away once more. I'll give him till the Bears season is looking bleak (so maybe week 3 of the NFL season), then he's gone.

I wouldn't exactly call it a demotion. He's still doing the same job. His partner retired and the new show didn't work out so there was a restructuring of the lineup looking for something that works better.

If they weren't happy with Bernstein then he'd be gone too.

Give it up Rick. When the tv news station takes the 10pm anchor and moves him to 5pm it is a demotion.

"Demotion" feels harsh. Dan had to know this was coming, and likely will do something more interesting in middays.

I dont listen much, but Ive heard Dan talk about how the afternoon slot was perfect for him and his family, so if he's acting like he's down with the time slot change, I find that hard to believe.

I thought the transition was incredibly boring, evidence of why each of them needs decent partners. And given the Feder and Rosenthal reports, insane that they stayed home (so to speak).

If you schedule the shows where it's The Dan Bernstein Show from noon-3 and Mac & Parkins from 3-7, you could argue he keeps two hours of his original shift and has the whole show to himself, so he's kinda still in afternoons but not really.

Post subject:	Re: 3/13 Transition
Hopefully they'll get Grote some sort of role on the afternoon show and get him off the Bears beat. Parkins like running shows solo, so if Mac want to go to cottage for a week during the NBA finals, Parkins with a lot of chiming in from Grote would keep things rolling. Parkins seems to genuinely like Grote, going back to the whole "how the hell does Grote get to have a WS ring?" discussions when he first got there.
