why wouldn't B&B want North back? He created some of the truly best "WYC's" and also gave them years of drops. I assume they wouldn't mind him being back for a day.

I would be more so Goff and Larry that would hate it.

CSFMB: Why, you dumb ass cracker?

Beardown: Think about it. It starts out as just this one day where Pappy subs on the Mac show. Then he becomes a regular sub for Mac. This takes away some of Larry's and Goff's shine when they were the regular subs. It's more than just that. North starts to shmooze Mitch and Zim a little with his guinea charm. Maybe the meatball Score listeners start to push for it. Boom!!!! Pappy gets the next day part opening at the Score instead of Larry or Goff. Get it? Not only do they hate him. He'd also be a threat to their advancement. That's why.

Why do you, Beardown, the watcher ao all things racially insensitive, think it is all right for you to use the word "guinea?"
Personally, being of Italian descent, I find that term quite insulting.

I'm part dago myself. It's a small percentage but it still gives me the right. So, salut to you.

Beardown, Goff and drinky would be natural co hosts to North. The problem is North still thinks he is big enough to fly solo and have a general topics format which will result in continuing failure.

I could handle North following up after Doug and OB on Sundays for full on mouthbreathing fun.

SHARK,

So you're saying you don't think there's any way that the Score brings Mike North back?

That's exactly what I'm saying. There's also zero chance Mike Murphy returns to 'SCR, too.

They offered him what they felt he was worth, which was still a lot of money by most standards. Don't portray Mike North as some sort of victim.

I understand you want to get in on the conversation and everything, but just do your updates man.

You're still doing it. I've added SomeGuy to the list.

SHARK
Midge
SomeGuy
Beardown
Eaglo
Keeping Score

I'm missing about 20 others.

Huh? What list might this be?

No. They wouldn't.

Drinky had a cup of coffee on North's morning show. I didn't hear much of it, but it was reported here that drinky was contentious and combative with North. Then, without warning or an explanation, drinky was no longer on North's morning show. Rumor has it that North wacked him.

Goff a natural fit with North? C'mon. Are you kidding? The slightest racist comment out of North's mouth and Goff would kill him. Goff takes it from Bernstein. He wouldn't take it from North.

I think it would be funny if Mac did a surprise attack on everybody at the Score. Just to see their reactions.

Mac: Hey everybody, look what I dragged in!!!!

Goff:

Larry:

Bernstein: :shock:

Boers:

Mac: What's the matter, boys? Cat got your tongue? No "Da Ma Na" from any of you? :lol:

Like I said, whatever Mac's motivation is with this idea, I think he'll be denied by Zimmerman. Mac can push over Mitch. I don't think he can get this past Zim.

I don't know why this is so outlandish to some of you. Though I've seen some people agree with me in this thread

Let me walk some of you through this like you're 5-year-olds. Sometimes that's what it takes with you guys.

Questions:

Beardown: Does "Team Bernstein" hate Mike North?

CSFMB: Yes

Beardown: Is Dan McNeil trying to bring Mike North back to sub on his show?

CSFMB: Yes

Beardown: Has "Team Bernstein" been picking on Mac? Have they insulted him with this "Da Ma Na" campaign?

CSFMB: Yes

Beardown: So if you add up all of these facts, is it that outrageous to conclude that Dan McNeil is bringing back North to stick it to "Team Bernstein"?

CSFMB: No

Beardown: Thank you.

CSFMB: Hey...wait!!!!

Beardown: :lol:

It's more "The GooFF" than "Team Bernstein" with the Da MA N...

Kill the body and the head will die.

Right. But Big Fan did bring up Larry backstabbing Mac in a thread. They're a team anyway. Goff represents all of them.

They tried to give him 600-700k SHARK.

I believe that was a pay cut...I thought North made about $1.5 million before he left WSCR.

About a million overpaid. North's ego swelled with his paycheck, and when people stopped tuning in just to hear him talk about Fritzy, Knuckles, and the Battlin' Polocks; WSCR wanted to cut his pay in response.

The fact the man went into a Hall of Fame of any kind other than as a hot dog vendor is a crime.

And nobody has wanted to hire him since, beside a few minutes a week on WIND (which, is it even still broadcasting?)

If he was worth that kind of money, someone would of snatched him up.

Wait until the lawsuit is settled. If they need a Murph, they'll get a Murph. Same goes for North, although, in my opinion, no one needs a North.

Fights between hosts are entertaining every now and then. "Drinky vs. North" and "Goff vs. North" would get old real quick because it would be constant. The fights wouldn't be fun because they'd be like a couple of 6 year olds arguing.

I think Murph sued the Score over a no compete clause. Where he wasn't allowed to work in radio for a certain amount of time.

Didn't really hurt him. Cuz when that expired, nobody wanted him anyway.

You are correct. Mike Murphy did sue The SCORE's parent company CBS Radio.

Murph had a brief cup of coffee Sunday mornings on ESPN Radio 1000 earlier this year. Hasn't been on ESPN Chicago since.

While the lawsuit didn't specify damages, Murphy's attorney, Lucas Fuksa, with Chicago-based Fuksa Khorshid LLC, said the damages would amount to millions of dollars. The class could extend to employees at other stations, he said.

"If people are in a similar situation, I would be willing to help them out, because situations like this are a flagrant disregard for Illinois law," Mr. Fuksa said.
