Mac is at least an occassional pot smoker

Hard to believe he ascended beyond flipping burgers.

I certainly hope nothing is wrong with one of Mac's sons, or his elderly father in Florida - then again, when have you drillrods ever been remorseful of posting anything.

Look. Mac is in the media. Anyone who works in the media knows that taking an unplanned extended leave will start rumors. The Score & Mac could very easily put the rehab rumors to rest...but they haven't. Why not? If I were the one being rumored to be in rehab & it wasn't true, I certainly would put it to rest.
I'm just sayin'...

He almost looks like he has the Walter Peyton liver disease as he is wasting away to nothing.

I wish Mac all the best, helathwise.

A couple things here, KS. I wouldn't be so sure that Mac and Boers are "good friends". And Terry is a guy who regularly celebrates people's deaths. I don't think he'd consider it a big deal to mock the medical condition of a co-worker with whom he has had a long and complicated relationship.

I disagree. You probably know Boers better than I do but I cant imagine going out of his way to bring it up like its a contract thing if its a medical issue.

I, I, I, I mean *SIGH*, look, we're not talking about, eh, uh, uh, and look, there are a lot of tragic stories out there, uh, uh, but, for the love of God, I mean, this isn't some young athlete in top condition struck down in his prime, uh, uh, eeee, no disrespect to Daaamaaaneeeeeeel, but this is a guy who had a lot of bad habits, uh, eh, eh, for the love of God, did you ever see some of the stuff Buzzbait Brian cooked up for him???? eh, I, I I, look, and again, in my world, *SIGH* that mustard belt wasn't just for show, okay? this was a guy who would swallow seven brats at one sitting. That's all's I'm sayin'. But we all want Dan to get well soon.

So Lin Brehmer would too have to be that much of an asshole. And Bernstein for not saying anything.


Im still saying its a contract thing

I think that's the case regardless of what Mac's problem is.

Mac just realizes that sports radio is dying and is making plans to take his show to facebook and twitter.

Joe, I know these hosts are the lowest form of human but I really have a hard time picturing them laughing at a serious health issue.


I dont know anything about Brehmer other than he has that same laid back XRT voice that all XRTers have. That voice is refreshing sometimes, and annoying others.

I think if Murph were diagnosed with cancer, they might have a parade.

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

No, they have to reserve that for Paterno/Sandusky

Even they wouldnt compare Murph to that

The list would be very long.

That would be awful, but the fact that on-air hosts are suggesting it's contract related would certainly make people think it's a contract issue.

Why would anyone feel the need to apologize? This is a "speculation" thread, is it not?

-This board is about Chicago sports media
-Mac is a part of the Chicago sports media


Seems pretty simple to me.

Does anyone know why Mac hasn't been on the air lately? Is it health related? Maybe a contract issue? Please let me know. Thanks!

OH MAN....I bet you're gonna be at dah top a' dat list for starting an apology thread!

Reading this thread, his contract appears to be unhealthy.


I haven't heard that contract talk. Every mention I've heard seemed to indicate some serious health issue with him or a family member.

_________________

I haven't been listening, so I am only going off of what others post here. But hasn't Terry made jokes about it? Not sure even he would do that if it was a serious health issue.

On the Contract, Spiegel said on Friday that everybody his happy here and we love the Macer.

I didn't listen much once they said Mac wouldn't be on, but did find a little odd they never mentioned his name much, then all of a sudden on Friday, they started too a little more.

mac and terry are probably the closest of all the guys at the station to each other..terry would not kick mac when he was down..murph yeah, mac ? nah

The exact same back/forth has happened a dozen times in this thread:

Poster A: I heard he's sick - or maybe has a family member that's sick
Poster B: Snarky comment about rehab
Poster C: No way. Terry is a friend, and he made a joke

Rinse and repeat.

False. Terry has no friends at the station. Some of the younger guys are actually friends with each other.
