Is just god awful. I can't stand this guy, he brings nothing. Show only last 2 hours for me on Tuesdays. He isn't interesting at all. Let him jump back into the tanning booth.

This is what's called cross-promotion in the business, folks. Mark Giangreco has been the city's #1 sportscaster for years at ABC 7, and I actually like what he brings to the table, regardless if it's with "Waddle & Silvy," "MJH," whatever... Need I remind you that Mark's ABC 7 teammate, Ron Magers, holds court with Roe Conn weekday afternoons at 3:05p on WLS 890, and it's not necessarily sports when Ron's on...They're all in the same building at State & Lake...

I don't think it's god awful - Giangreco just comes off a little chesty and everyone else is not as good as me. not sure if that is how he really is but that's how it comes off to me while i listen.

I understand the cross-promo, but it is counter-productive. I ditch when he comes on, giving increased ratings to neither segment.

Sort of reminds me of the Dan Patrick "aren't I a bad boy" routine he was doing on ESPN. Haven't heard the syndicated show, but assume Dan does the same schtick...

Eventually, a thought has to be brought to the fore...

He does come off as smug, too negative, and not at all a sports fan.

I'm probably one of the biggest Waddle and Silvy fans but today's show was meh......

giancreco said my dane cook parody was "very well written" and "funny" and so i have to give him credit for that...

but yeah, he's very smug. i personally think he's trying to emulate "evil dave" on howard stern, but i think it's just me.

I think it's generally good radio, with one exception: he has a tendency to step all over W&S. Marky, we can't listen to two people talking at once.

Smug? Perhaps. Still, hard for me to hate someone who loves Team America that much.

Giangreco is cool. Just ask him.

I really enjoy this segment, to each their own....

Yes, that is how he is. He's the guy who outed Payton, then cried
like a little about it.

I think Giangreco is funny and very entertaining on the radio. I think this show is one of the best besides MJH
