That was awesome. It was about time that someone at the station took him to task, or at least asked him about the situation.

I just a caught a snippet of the conversation, but Mac asked about the status of Cowley's twitter account. The phone rang, so I didn't have a chance to hear the rest of the conversation.

Nutshell:

Said Ozzie hasn't changed and Ozzie wasn't the reason for the poisoned clubhouse last year.

But moreso, Mac asked him if the Sun Times told him to back off of Twitter and Cowley responded that he's not doing anything these days that he doesn't get paid for. Mac said he wasn't answering the question and Cowley just kept repeating that line, over and over. Mac stayed on him and Cowley kept not answering. It was fun!

Im sure it would have been a blast if Peavy and Dunn were all stars and Rios was hitting.


Clubhouse atmosphere is over rated.

Quite obviously it was Kenny. :roll:

I'm not saying he didn't play a part, but to pretend that Ozzie had nothing to do with it is absurd, even for Cowley.

What's up with Joe Cowley living in Minneapolis. Shouldn't he be covering the Twins.

That's awesome. That sounds like something an over the top Douchebag Movie Character would say in some B film.

Don't forget Cooper.

Like RPB said, if Rios, Peavy and Dunn play to just thier average, the clubhouse is wonderful. If they weren't playing all star baseball right now Ventura's quiet demeanor would be a liability.

...and if the Sox don't win the World Series in 2005 Ozzie's act would have gotten old about 3 years earlier and he would have been gone.

At least so far, getting rid of Ozzie has been addition by subtraction.

Mac knew the answer and really just wanted to get it out of him, which wasn't going to happen because obviously The Sun Times didn't even want him bringing it up. He mentioned how ESPN 1000 was the same way when it came to matters like this.

Ozzie's act was tired when he ripped fans as he left town 20 years ago.

The Sox clubhouse has proven it can win with an Ozzie type. It has proven it can win with a Manuel, aka Ventura type. Ultimately, the manager has little to do with what is going on.

This was a lame and totally contrived and forced segment. The show was great up until that "totally random" call to Cowley. They totally telegraphed it during the "tease'...

Mac: "Oh well, you know, wanna talk to Cowley? I mean, I really don't want to but I can coerced"

Meat: "Yeah, I dunno, I guess, we'll see, I mean I don't want it to turn confrontational. You know?"

Mac: " Yeah, it might get awkward and stuff but hey, COWLEY IN 25 MINUTES!"

Fucking dumb. Mac/Meat you don't need to stir up totally fake angst and fake "tough questions" to get a fake rise outta Cowley. Come on now, you're show doesn't need that need shit.

You think Cowley was in on it? If so, Cowley did a great job appearing caught off guard and unprepared to address the issue, not to mention really douchey and stupid. Although maybe that's what Cowley was going for.

I dunno, Cowley probably wasn't in on it but the whole thing was just lame and forced.

"Man, do you want to call Cowley, it could get awkward!"

"Oh boy, I dunno, I won't hold back!"

"Okay, sounds good! Cowley in 25 minutes!"

Lame.

Cowley wasn't "in" on anything. As for the tease (Some Guy's complaint)... we were just being real. We weren't sure if we were gonna do the interview. On-air production meetings sometimes make Spiegs squirmy. I love squirmy radio.

I texted Joe a few hours ago to see if we were cool. He just got back to me a few mins ago. We're gonna talk tomorrow.

But Kenny wanted to go in a different direction from Manuel's HR slugging offense?

My complaint was with the "tease" and the fact that you actually had Cowley on and gave him airtime. He deserves to be trading BJ's for change on Lower Wacker and not on my radio. I'm fairly certain that, deep down, you agree.

Mac, let me break it down:

-Cowley sucks.

-Your show is good.

No need to mix "suck" and "good" because it only makes the "good" "suck". Cowley blows cock and isn't interesting. Please don't have him on your show ever again, he isn't relevant anymore and hasn't been in a while. He needs to stay locked away in the darkness, never to return. Please don't bring him out into the light.

But, if a 10 minute segment of you guys taking Cowley "to task" is all I have to complain about when it comes to your show.....you dudes are doin' all right in my book.
