MULLY YOUR JOKES FUCKING SUCK

Murph has been gone for what? Five years? And still these guys are obsessed with him.

Three years, actually. How can Murph have been that awful for them to share a workplace with if they never even talked to him?

_________________

What could he have done that all of these guys, who don't particularly like each other, universally share a hatred Murph? It's very odd.

Mully I <3 you.

Mac is cool too.

Serious or tongue in cheek?

If serious, what do you like about him?

Serious that I like the show...tongue in cheek that I felt compelled to post it.

I've been over this before with FF, but I find the show entertaining...nothing more than that...

I don't mind the show either. A little too heavy on the bad jokes, but otherwise it's fine.

Kinda how I feel about it. Mully is acting like a fucking bitch as far as this is concerned though, its pretty fucking lame.

I was an avid Steve and Gary listener. I recall a show when you and his producers did a "producers" show. One of my first exposures to the golden pipes of a Daaaan Maaacneal. Did you ever hit the bathroom with Steve and Joe Walsh?

I want to hear the time Steve found a toenail in the studio, and blamed it on Rusty. The boyquarium took a lot of shit from Steve & Garry. They used to joke that Chet used to take them all to Shakey's on Friday nights like a cub scout pack.

Back then Steve and Chet didn't really get along too well. Dahl called Mac "Rusty," and he had a voice for him. He was Chet's little helper and an overly serious little sports guy. Chet and Mac were always very serious back in the day. Of course sports is very serious business, (especially when Ditka had his grabber).

random story: one time chet comes on right after Dahl and he starts talking and I know something's wrong right away ...his voice is all warbly...then he starts choking and goes silent. I think, "holy shit, Chet's having a heart attack on the air. Do I call 911?" I was freaking out. Then a few seconds later Chet comes back on and apparently he was eating an apple and the skin got caught in his throat. I'd love to hear that tape.

I find it strange that mully could get so offended at a coworker commenting on his strange euro fascination yet every Thursday he interviews a pitching coach who pisses all over him and his cohost for no reason. What he tolerates with a smile from that guy is absurd.

That's the thing. Chicago never really had "Shock Jocks". It didn't work here. Even Stern couldn't really catch on when he was working a real shock angle. Johnny B. tried the shock approach at first but quickly became a real guy. Mancow was a fucking phony. And now he's some rightwing nutjob and that's the real Mancow.

Fuck Mancow.

Good call on Mancow. I never liked that guy. My BS detector went off any time I heard him. Total phony.

I remember hanging out in the Naperville bars in the early 90s and The Blaze (103.5) had a van with people handing out Mancow bumper stickers months before that idiot even came on the air. I think he came from San Francisco.

I don't understand how he was ever popular.

Steve & Garry were shock jocks.

And I'd love to hear some old tapes of Mac fill-in hosting on COS and doing a horrible Chet impersonation. I'm glad he moved on from that.

You know me like that.

I would disagree with that. Dahl was a real guy who just played himself on the radio. He still plays himself on the Internet. But now he's just a boring old rich guy who plays golf instead of blowing rails and drinking all night. It just happened that he was a hard-partying rock and roll listening motherfucker. Just like his audience. Insane Coho Lips! The fact that older people found it shocking that someone let him on the radio doesn't make him a "shock jock" in my view. I consider a shock jock someone who is purposely trying to incite. In that regard, danny bernstein is much closer to being a shock jock than Dahl ever was.

Dan's not close to being a shock jock, either, as at no point do you ever believe that he will be reproached.

_________________

No. At the time he was worried nobody would even come. That was a promotion he and Mike Veeck cooked up and the Sox dumped it in Dahl's lap when shit went bad. The Sox wish they could get 60,000 people begging to get into their ballpark right about now.

What is the Mully/Herb story? I missed it.

_________________

I'm not saying that shock jocks weren't influenced by Dahl; simply that Dahl was not a shock jock. Nobody knew that every teenage knucklehead in Chicago was going to show up at that doubleheader with a disco record, 98 cents, and a nickel bag. They were averaging about 15,000 a game. They figured if they could bump it up to 25,000 on a Thursday night it would be a wild success. Nobody expected guys to storm the field.
