Just heard him announced as the Big Get on the stupid Roe/Roeper/Lou Canellis Awkwardly Forced And Uninformed Sports Talk Spectacular, or whatever they're calling the 5:00 hour. So if you want to hear hosts kiss Steve Stone's ass while helping him wash the White Sox' collective balls, you're going to have to adjust your Olde Tyme Radio Dial!

Totally agree with the awkwardly forced comments. Clearly someone in management thought that adding a sports talk segment during drive time would draw listeners. It reminds me of "Morning Joe's" sports blurb around 5:30. Total waste of time. Little insight and superficial commentary at best. That's not why anyone tunes in.

He doesn't need it. He's already watching 25 dicks 6 months out of the year.

Does Stone have the ability to talk baseball, sure, but he doesnt watch any other games, so everything he has said for the last 2 years is based on ESPN highlights the next day. It got really bad with him when he started relying on 'sources' for everything and none of it is what he saw.

I wonder how the axe he still grinds will play out on WLS.

Great move Mitch!

Bernsie referred to Stone as being "hard right". Any insight into this?

I don't know. Context? Maybe just a reference to being on the Rush/Hannity station now instead of theirs.

Now there's a rumor that WLS AM890 might be going all sports. The more the merrier!

890 going all-sports with everyone who's been let go by the other stations would surely be terrible, but 890 as it stands is either hate speech or talking about American Idol like boring henpecked husbands, so it would still be an improvement.

Prospective transcript of Steve Stone on the WLS Perfunctory-Grope-At-The-Male-Demo Sports Show:

ROE CONN
Awrightsteve, I, aaaaa, IIIIII, Igottaaskyouthis. How are my Chicago Cubs gonna do this year?

STEVE STONE
Well, Mike, I mean Roe, one thing should be clear. The Cubs say they're rebuilding. I'm just not sure what it is they're building.

RICHARD ROEPER
Stoney, I gotta tell you. I spent a lot of time at Sox Park as a kid. Now you weren't pitching then. But let's talk about Sox Park, and really, what it means to Chicago to refer to it as Sox Park.

STEVE STONE
Well, I had some great times with the White Sox. And I'm having a great time in the booth with Hawk. We're getting along great and everything is great.

ROE CONN
Nowwww before we get to news and traffic, I, ahhh, Ijustwannaknowonething. Okay. Theo Epstein. Good-looking guy, talldarkhandsome, Stoney...you thinking what I'm thinking? Cubs win the World Series, Theo on Dancing With The Stars next season? IMEANCOMEON!

STEVE STONE
Well, Roe, when it comes to those dancing costumes, I'm quite certain the ladies out there would say that Theo has a nice backside. When it comes to baseball, my question is whether he can find it with both hands.

ROE CONN
AwrightletsgotoChristinaFiliaggi. Let's see what our crazy resident drunk chick has to say! You'll never guess what she'll say next!

CHRISTINA FILIAGGI
traffic on the eisenhower is getting bad it should be about 40 minutes from biesterfield to lake-cook

ROE CONN
WHOA!

RICHARD ROEPER
I know this is the sports show, but I know I'm about more than sports, and Steve, I know you're more than sports, too, so I want to dig a little deeper while we have you on the line, really ask the questions other stations never thought to ask before me, so Steve, tell us: what are you rockin' on your iPod?

STEVE STONE
That's a great question, and I think the only greater question is what the Cubs are doing.

That's about perfect, although you missed Roe doing his horrid and embarrassing "Asian Person" impersonation that he uses for every Asian person/some one who looks Asian.

And I'm not quit sure 890 is hate speech, maybe I'm wrong?

"Hate speech" was hyperbole, but I'm ready for Rush, Hannity, and Levin to head to the dustbin of history. "Could Obama be nominating Bill Ayers and the Choom Gang to his cabinet? But first, I want to tell you about how you can buy a reagan.com email address."

I simply don't understand how that Levin guy has a job in radio. The first time I heard him I thought it was Billy Crystal doing some kind of impersonation.
