Cowherd-free August from 9-noon.

Quote:
ESPN Chicago 1000’s Waddle & Silvy will host the week of August 24. Former Bears receiver Tom Waddle and Marc Silverman host a daily show in Chicago from 2 – 6 p.m. CT.


...so are they going to be on the air for 8 hours a day that week?

From the Feder article... 'That means they’ll be on the air for seven hours each day that week'

Interesting. Is this their audition to go national or simply just a fill in role?

I know Waddle does weekends in Bristol during the football season. Maybe the ESPN suits like him.

From Lars site...

About 2 weeks ago, Sports Illustrated Media Critic Richard Deitsch wrote in his column that ESPN 1000 AM's popular afternoon duo of Tom Waddle & Marc Silverman were in "heavy consideration" to take over ESPN Radio's national afternoon drive time slot. Now, the powers that be in Bristol, CT have made a decision regarding that vacancy, and "Waddle & Silvy" won't be going national after all. According to Deitsch & multiple reports, ESPN Radio has decided to go with journalist Bomani Jones instead to replace Dan Le Batard in afternoon drive nationally.

Never listened to Le Batard. Won't listen to Bomani either. The only national ESPN show worthy of your time is SVP.

Yeah, they joke about that often on W&S. Always makes me feel uncomfortable.

always amazed me a guy who literally put his life on the line the way he played, now he won't say boo for fear of getting his bosses mad.
