I remember hearing that his deal was up in May. Did he re-sign?

I think it's June. If it were May and he hadn't re-signed yet, they would have probably kept him off the air.

This show is about as milquetoast as you can get. I can't listen anymore. I'm not sure if Harry's simpleton personality is contagious or if this is what the bosses are telling Carmen and Jurko to do but it is awful. I can't imagine it's likely Jurko will be resigned so I'm hoping he says screw it and shakes things up a little. It's killing me that I have nothing to listen to right now.

You're not a B&B fan, right Spaulding?

You may have to wait until they move Waddle & Silvy for any sort of program change.

No I can't do B&B. I find them draining.

I think Waddle and Silvy are a better fit in mornings and I'm hoping they don't get moved. I know they can't move M&M but I think W&S are too goofy for afternoons. I'd lose my work out show again and I hate that.

I don't think they would move Silvy and Waddle...I don't see Waddle accepting the move to afternoons - it would interfere too much with his family obligations not to mention his NFL Network & Fox Sports obligations.

The only move that I would like seen done is B&B moving back to 10-2 and Mac and crew 2-6. Silvy and Waddle have a perfect time slot.

Jurko's deal is up in late August I believe. It could be early September, but I'm pretty sure he told me August at the Movie Madness Cubby Bear deal.

Jurko is an entertainer. Just ask him.

I believe his current deal is up in August.

Let the bidding begin!!!

I've got a better idea, ChgoSportsFreak...I think 670 The SCORE should air "The Dan Patrick Show" at 9a instead of waiting until 10p on tape delay, followed immediately by "Boers & Bernstein" from Noon-3p leading right up to Mac, if Mitch Rosen & SCORE management spend CBS Radio's $$$$ sooner rather than later...

These shows are not about atom splitting.
McNeil is established in this town.
Carmen is the new kid on the block.
Carmen isn't going to blast away at Harry or Jurko like Danny.
Milquetoast is a good description....
BUT WHAT DID ONE EXPECT?????

Who needs a work-out show when you have spmack telling you to "push it?"

You should see this guy, Killer. I bet I could do a hundred push ups if this guy got under me. I was thinking sexy thoughts last time I worked out. It's probably a little like having a hooker without the pay off at the end.

Keep up with it, spmack.

i have a feeling that waddle and silvy will stay where they are. but, they seem to be an obvious choice for afternoons if Jurko leaves in august.

I will...worked out 3 days in a row, took yesterday off and will be back at it today....I'm extremely sore in the chest and arms, but I walked past the mirror after working out saturday and noticed a little "definition" in the main areas...So yeah I'm going to keep it up.

Well I think Jurko will leave, I just wonder if they do will him like they did Mac, and make Jurko leave a month early before the contract ends, so Jurko could be gone by July 4. I wonder if they would then, just throwing it out, go with Carmen, Jeff Dickerson, and Harry.

I wonder if Mac stayed, that when he retired, JD would be the evenutal replacement, the problem I see with my senario and I could be wrong, is that maybe JD and and Carmen are seen as hosts more than whatever they call what Harry and Jurko are, is it co-hosts.

Post subject:  Re: Any news on Jurko's Deal with ESPN 1000?

Carm, JD, and Harry make the most sense if Jurko leaves.

I don't think Jurko has an option...so, he'll be there until his contract ends.

I'm not sure that's really considered working out....haven't you ever heard you can go blind from that?
