Check out today's Sun-Times Bill Zwecker column. I'm too lazy to link to it. Congrats, Sox.

North fucking sucks and there is NO WAY the Sox should do anything with or for him. Just terrible if they do.

"Sound familiar?


SPORTS SHORT: Hmmm. Mike North has been hanging out at U.S. Cellular Field lately — and I’m hearing it’s about a lot more than just watching the last few games of the White Sox’s 2011 season. Sources say the veteran broadcaster has the ear of Jerry Reinsdorf, and North was seen huddling behind closed doors with other Sox honchos Friday, reportedly about more than just a radio gig."

I thought I saw him walkin' up to The Hill
With Matthew, Tulsi, and Don

I have been saying it since Day 1. For the amazing business accumen he has, he lacks total vision when it comes to fans. He relies so much on surveys and his ass kissing staff to give him info. On top of everything, very little happens that he did not approve. From play by play guys to promo night, to the music played and the actual volume of the music!

North and Farmio, has on air fighting potential.

North should be the GM

Jerry is actually thinking North will help attendance.

Do the Sox have the roving hot chick on the Diamondvision between innings talking to fans? etc. They have it in many parks.

Why do I feel North is begging for that type of gig?

As Bob said, the only acceptable employment for North with the Sox is as Ribbie or Rhubarb reincarnated.

Exactly WHAT is the Target audience North brings in?
I have posted before that in his first few years on WSCR, North brought back memories of the goof with the baggie blue or baggy gray pants with the white T-Shirt with the Marlboros or Winstons rolled up in the sleeve who hung out at Hiawatha Park in the early 60s.
He was on air Fonzie.
Well, I can't imagine that crowd re-living the good old days at The Cell.

Maybe North is selling Reinsdorf on the idea of hiring North as a lobbyist to get the State Legislature to approve slot machines for The Cell????? North is such an expert on gaming and odds and all!!!!!

I guess they needed someone to fill Rangeys shoes and Members Olney jacket now that he's taking his talents and Don Johnson beard to South Beach.

Where does that buffoon fit in if he joins the White Sox? Would he bring the "Bookie Priest" and that mutt Licorice with him?

I like this one. Pappy is starting to get a little pissed that Dahl and Crains are pissing all over his internet sponsorship model.

Then, the video cuts off the sponsor plug at the end.

SUCH A DUMB FUCK HE IS.

Well, just wait....he then goes on to have Texas in the World Series losing to the Brewers. Don't Fade Me Mikey boy you stupid stupid stupid stupid MF'r.

The Sox should hire him before he gets scooped up!

The sad thing is that would be the most listenable broadcast.
