This is the only show on the station I can still handle listening to - and it's a challenge most mornings, as Haugh is just the worst. If he's not doing a McDoink-like long sigh before offering a remedial opinion he's tripping down the verbal hill where he feels the only way to right himself is to make a list of words that start with the same letter(s) "I mean, the Bears need to regroup, rethink and reconsider what they're doing". Mully has (d)evolved into that annoying yet somehow likable uncle at the holiday dinner table. He says the same thing over and over again, repeats someone else's thought(s) multiple times or dusts off a "I remember back when..." story from his newspaper days.
It does seem like there is a cognitive decline with him, though - while he's always had laughably long and meandering 'questions' (that never actually result in a question), they seem to have gotten worse and he often starts to throw to break at the wrong time or attempt to tease a segment that's not, in fact, coming up next. They both do their fair share of misspeaking (only outdone by their knuckle dragging moron of a producer), but the volume produced by Mully has certainly increased. Hopefully he's ok and it's just general aging to blame, but he definitely exhibits some troubling signs (odd, open-mouthed, mechanical laugh is specifically something I've noticed a lot more in the past couple of years of tuning in).
Anyway, interesting to see this posted as I've wondered about it myself. Maybe he'll choose to retire and they can drag Hanley's puns back to the morning to pair up with Haugh and their idiot producer?
"It's Mully and Hanley, I man Mully and Haugh, errr Hanley and Haugh in the morning..."
