STU brings up a lot of good points (first time for everything I guess). You can say that Carm is doing his own thing, and he is, but in this format, he will always be considered a replacement for Mac. Silvy and Carmen worked very well together, and I generally liked Carmen filling in whenever MJ or H were in the penalty box, but as a permanent thing I just don't think its going to fly. I want to like the show and want the show to do well. I like all 3 guys on a personal level, and even though Tiny gets on my nerves from time to time, I generally like what all 3 do and say on the air.

But again, this format is not the proper forum for Carm, nor is it for you, Danny and Finji. Like it or not, this show is always going to be consdiered the second rate MJH by the diehards until the format is blown up or changed completely.

I wish everybody luck, because if this is anything more than a temporary fix, you're gonna need it.

Even if he is...so what. Jose Macias was probably a nice guy...doesnt matter.


Since this comment comes quickly after my "I like Carm" comment, please let me clarify. I meant that I like him on the radio.

I don't know Carm, have never met him. He may be a horrible guy - spits on cats, burns ants with magnifying glasses, I don't know. As long as he doesn't do anything morally objectionable or illegal, I basically don't care.

But, on the radio, he does a pretty good show in the correct environment.

Mac is a giant douche.

The problem now is that Harry seems to think that when they got rid of Mac, it means more Harry Schtick. No one is there to reign him in.

This whole movie thing blows. The eventual champion should be "The Crying Game"

I like Carm, but the couple of times I've tuned in, he sounds like he's trying to be Mac. He's better than that. Have him be himself and talk sports.

:shock: I'm actually agreeing with SID here.

Carmen sounds annoyed with Harry. I really like him as a host and think he makes Levine and Hood a better listen. There is something missing here. It might be the slight age difference, but they seem uncomfortable with each other. I don't think they are coming off as genuine. I'm not sure how it could be made better.

I agree with you as well Spaulding.

:lol:

I do like the fact that Finji has been piping in more with his comments ala Goff on B&B.

I saw the post someone made, indicating that "UP THE ACADEMY" was on the list of top guy movies, that the fella's are presenting to listeners to vote on....That movie was awful. Including it on any list of top movies, makes the list bogus. I don't care that Harry had a part in it, it's BAD.

They're not really calling it one of the 64 (or 65) best movies Steve. They put it in as a "play-in" more or less as a joke. I think they wanted to see if anyone other than Harry would vote for it.

I could be wronge here, but before all this stuff happened, wasn't Jeff Dickerson supposed to be the one that was supposed to take over for Mac, not Carm, probably just made a snap decision to put Carm in.

Now when everbody says Carm is a nice guy, but he isn't ready for this, is that the same thing a former host of this show said about John Paxson, how everybody prefaced it by saying Pax is a nice guy, of course if you read the suntimes, Pax would stay, but Del Negro would go, if there is a change.

I will agree with Gloopan Kuratz that nobody is there to reign Harry in, and there should be, because when they did an oath on Carm's 2nd day, he said that Carmen had the right to say no to anything Harry suggested.

Harry is terrible at his job. As soon as Jurko departs this show it will be, "Afternoon Crease Monkeys" for your listening enjoyment.
Harry should be getting in contact with Tom Shaer pretty soon. Two of Chicago's greatest radio entertainers of all time would make a great afternoon show. :lol:
