If you could advise Chicago radio hosts on how to treat callers... what would your advice be? Sort of as an aside... if a caller says something stupid, should they say it's stupid? Let is pass? Ridicule them? |

It got the point across without really embarrassing the caller. |

Too much condescension and disdain by sports hosts when dealing with callers. Callers provide content. Les is a weirdo but the rare times I'm up late I enjoy listening when he gets into pretty lengthy debates/discussions with callers. |

And they do something similar to Hendrix, but they play the sound of a roulette ball rolling across the table, sometimes twice for the same caller if he is extremely bad. |

Ozzie Smith was Don Kessinger with better publicity and that smooth astroturf carpet. It was faux outrage that got way more attention and airtime than it deserved. I couldn't tell you the specifics off the top of my head (thank Allah) but Ozzie was being a penis and North decided to double-down on the incident by playing the "don't disrespect me or my listeners" card and came off sounding more like the Caller Bob at Starbucks losing her shit over getting 2% instead of soy milk than Billy Blue Collar. |

North's treatment of Isiah Thomas and Mike McCaskey is legendary and was the catalyst for the Score becoming THE sports station in town. His calling Isiah out for walking off the floor without shaking hands is still one on the best moments in Chicago sports radio. Ever. |

Yeah, and Isiah called North out for thinking he was a basketball player because he made free throws at Truman College. |

Stupid callers also spawned Score buzz phrases like "See Ya"...but developing that kind of branding would actually take forethought and production |
