Whacking Dan McNeil is just so typical of the Chicago Sports scene....When something works around here, destroy it. The Mac, Jurko and Harry show will never be duplicated....PERIOD. The chemistry was fabulous. These guys are great people and off the charts as entertainers on sports radio in a market of a lot of hopeful and wishful rubes who love to look at professional sports businesses as if they were the local high school or the kids' little league teams... This firing makes me sick...... Good Luck to Danny.... |

But management might argue it WASN'T working . . . at least not in the same way it was when he signed the big contract. It's a what-have-you-done-for-me-lately world out there. IN MAC'S OWN WORDS: "Better point the thumb if I'm pointing the finger. My WMVP-AM (1000) radio show, the 'Mac, Jurko & Harry Afternoon Saloon,' didn't keep its heavyweight title belt in '08. We were clipped by the talented but boorish 'Boers and Bernstein' program on rival WSCR in the fall Arbitron afternoon-drive ratings. A half-dozen times or so over the last several years, the Saloon has been No. 1 among adult men. That happened only once in '08. Anything less is unacceptable. We need to do our jobs 'a whole lot better.' " |

" These radio management types move from station to station and city to city collecting a paycheck and trying to act as if they know what they are doing....this is typical corporate nonsense. |
