Post subject: | MJH Experience |
Anyone notice there aren't any bids yet for the MJH Experience in conjuction with the Jimmy V Foundation auction? Is that because no one knows if MJH will still be together for this outing or is the starting bid ($1000) too much? I vote for the latter. $1000 is a pretty hefty price to pay, even if it is for charity. Someone could have just spent the $250 for the MJH golf outing to eat, drink and hang with the fellas. I know it's for a good cause (my father died of lung cancer), but I think they are being a little full of themselves. By the way, the Silvy & Waddle Experience is up to $750. |

I believe it's because Peter Sellers is dead. |

a lot of these V foundation packages are extremely pricey. i can't believe someone was willing to pay almost 9 grand (or more?) to go to the kentucky derby. it's a great auction but it is BAD RADIO from 12-3. my god. |

Beyond bad radio- I felt like I was listening to NPR when they do their fundraising. |

it's a great auction but it is BAD RADIO from 12-3. my god. I agree, I feel bad for Bob Valvano, but he definately is not much in terms of being compelling or making a salient point about anything in the sports world. Him and Todd Wright should have a bore off |

oh God no! that was insufferable. at least this was only a 3 hour show...that was 3 weeks of HELL! especially the one week of RadioLab that took over the BBC news hour. |

I think it would be pretty cool to see what goes on behind the scenes, but I don't think that's even close to being worth $1,000. |

Two reasons perhaps: 1) Few people are listening; or 2) Most people listening are under 30 and they don't have a lot of extra cash lying around. I tuned into this show between CDs in the car and heard a silly quiz on 20 something rap stars and entertainers. I felt Carmen's pain. I didn't know who the hell JD was talking about either in most of those questions. I thought these evening drive sports radio shows targeted 21-55 year old men. That quiz -- and apparently JD's act -- is targeted solely at 30 and unders....tops. That quiz was a good way for the hosts to say..."if you are older than 30 we have nothing for ya." I got the message with only a few minutes of pain. Let me know when Mac is back. |

I'd pay the 9K to go to the Derby before paying 1K to hang with MJH. |

I write the subtle/obscure stuff just about every day and no one gets it (as far as I know). I'll put Being There in my Top 5 of all-time. |

In the grand scheme of things I meant.... The Derby is a once in a lifetime experience assuming they give you a nice box seat and go to a party the night before.....MJH can be seen at any remote and like someone mentioned, you could golf for 250 with em. |

Slappy told me he got the same thing at the MJH outing for a $100 bucks. He's been paying to hang out with Mcneil for years . A $1000 bucks to hang with those boobs ...... Keep it . Although it goes to a great cause, I think I could have a grand go to a funner time and still help out cancer research . |

I've always wondered why ESPN chose to tie their one main charity gig to a guy (Jimmy V) who cheated when he was a coach. With all the good, honest people (including sports figures) who have died of various causes and diseases (and could have had a Foundation named after them with a major national network behind it), it makes me wonder why they chose Jimmy V -- a guy who ran one of the dirtiest programs of his era -- as their cause celebre. The inconsistency of ESPN is a puzzle. Here is a network that hires a drug felon (Irvin) for a major on-air position, names a charity after a cheater (V Foundation), yet has the supposed corporate values to suspend a radio guy for abusive language? I understood why they hit Mac. What I don't understand is if they are so concerned about their values, why do they do these other things... |

It is true Slap shot got the same deal for $100 at the Golf Outing outbidding me by $95 I felt bad that no one had bid on it and I figured it was for a great cause and a tax write off and a $100 bucks so what the hell. Plus, Mac's wife Sherry kept saying to me that no ONE had bid on the MJH expierence and I did not want Dan to look bad in front of Sherry so I grabbed it . I'm only kidding . Sort of. I'll grab a bunch of the MJH remote regs and share IT with Doug , Ryan , Grid , Spaulding and anyone else who wants to come down to a remote . Free food , drinks and a group photo with the guys AND some MJH swag . |
