the only reasoning to say good things about ruskell is to expect some appreciation from him in the future as an inside source to jenson and mulligan..the writing is on the wall and these guys see that ruskell is the favorite to land this job.

Same?

Actually I read thru that whole thread and the subject of the feud was never even discussed much less detailed.

I think this is Mulli vs Hub. Mac trying to get into it is secondary.

That coffee story is hilarious. Pretty sure the only thing we know is Mully was mad about coffee and then like 4 months later he took a shot at Herb on air.


Anyway, Hanley knows absolutely nothing. Not one thing. He brings the idiotic fan's perspective, thats it. He never says anything interesting, his jokes are terrible, and he's not a good judge of anything related to sports

Mulligan seemingly has a lot of inside info on the NFL. I hear things from him all the time that I dont hear from anyone else on Chicago radio. He's pretty valuable in a time like this too because he knows a lot of the front office guys.


Hub has basically dismissed Ruskell as being Angelo all over again. Pompei and Mulligan disagreed with this and their main point being, if the connection to Angelo is the only bad thing, you dont really have a point.

Angelo = Bad
Ruskell = Bad +possibly worse w/ a poor history of performance

Angelo can't really draft or run a team properly which makes sense when one looks at him bringing in Ruskell after he we chased out of Seattle. Hub has a point, and a fair one, that Ruskell is Angelo because both are bad.

And what "Inside Info" that is so earth shaking that Mully just spits out all day long? I mean, really? He is kissing ass or worse he is letting his relationships get in the way of fair reporting and an objective look at a failed (Failed, I say!) former GM ore whatever from Seattle. That dick sucking segment was either a huge TELL that Ruskell will be in a position of power soon or Mully and Pompeii have a crush on the guy.

Mac spitting fire on Mully was.....interesting, but the Mully vs Hub is just that. Although with Mac getting involved and stirring the pot things may get interesting.

thanks for the link.... pompei "they won a superbowl his first year"..no they did not dope
so pompei,jenson and mulligan are in line to suck ruskells dick for a future halas hall source that won't give any of these clowns any real inside scoops and ignore ruskells past performance. but i agree at least mully calls hub out by name and not the usual "hear people" saying...

You are confusing the subjects. Maybe I didnt separate them clearly enough

The inside info/good stories is separate from this whole Ruskell/Hub thing.

The stories are good. Not sure what else to say. Most of them are from when he was on the Beat. Weird stories about players, running into Oliver Stone, drunken conversations with guys who are GM's now.

I didn't confuse anything. .

Dont have to be such a "Hagar" about it...

Call it what you want. You wrote a paragraph denying he has inside info and supporting it with why he is on Ruskell's side.

Those are two separate issues for our purposes here....and like I said maybe it was I who didnt separate them properly in the first place.

Dont have to be such a "Hagar" about it...

Mully is totally Chicago. he is 2nd generation American and his old man watched (or tried to watch Soccer) all the time or follow it, so he is into Soccer.

i doubt mulligan is from the south side and not even sure he is from chicago... i have heard mulligan talk about his playing days at loyola on the soccer field and assumed it was the university... other than loho mulligan is at the bottom of the talent pool..i don't think i have ever thought one of his stories was mildly amusing..mulligan is the reason i have not listened in maybe 6 weeks..the guy is awful

we will see if hub knows his shit or not..i called bullshit on hub last year when supposedly one of the mccaskeys inquired on bill cowher to the rooneys'...now hub says orton wants to come to chicago and play backup.

Hub is the best football media guy in the city of Chicago, & he actually know his X's & O's, unlike many of the others. He has become my favorite host on the Score.

Mulligan's best stories seem to surround his years following the 90-93 Bulls. They rarely have anything to do with the game of basketball, just like now how the rare good nugget he drops has nothing to do with sports. Imo, he is among the worst columnists/reporters in the city. No value whatsoever.

I don't care about soccer, I don't want to hear about his family (except the kid who briefly had a commercial ), I don't want to hear his peculiar Irish/British stories, nor do I care that he may or may not be a south sider. He has an alternating dull and then grating on air persona, and the morning show is a direct reflection of such. And I actually consider Hanley to be somewhat likable....and previously even occaisionally funny, so what else can I say?

Imo, he is the worst (except for the abomination that was North) morning host in the history of the Score.

Wait....he is better than Shaer. Not that that says much.
