He would never fight back. He would just take it like Linkavitch Chomofsky.

We could taunt Bernsie and tell him that getting back on the radio is the final portion of his rehab after the broken nose.

your know that's factually accurate because, as Bernstein noted recently on air...that's what it says on his Illinois driver's license and those are all official stats and shit.

I think Boers v. Candyman would be epic. I'd go with Boers.

Witnessing in it in person or on the air when princess candyman snaps would be epic. I am fully confident that he will go full throttle, balls to the wall hyper slappy. It would be like the waterboy snapping only he would just start slapping fools.

Mac would destroy him if he ever cared to.

Mac couldn't even take STU-GOTZ. He'd struggle with Bernstein.

Grab it, spmack. No bookie ever went broke taking Mac's action.

And STU is at a big disadvantage with Spaulding on his lap.

Didn't B and B have some kind of fantasy fights between hosts bit a few months ago with 75% of the responses including someone destroying Bernstien?

Of the regular daytime hosts in a Royal Rumble, I'd put my money on Mulligan. He is just bigger... except for Spiegel... but I imagine he would slap and probably cry at some point. I would also imagine Boers to fight dirty and Bernstein to immediately threaten to contact his attorney.

Your show is horrible Mac. But when Jurko shows up in July/August, at least much of the board will be happier. Even then, you'll be lucky to get a daily show thread started more than 3 times a week.

On the other hand, there will still be a daily show thread that runs about 5 pages Mon-Fri, about that one show that nobody listens to but everyone posts about.

I'm a Sox fan but I'm to the point now where as soon as I hear Farmer's voice, I turn the station. Brutal. Not only that but you have White Sox weekly and other baseball programs the Score is obligated to air. Chicago baseball blows and it's depressing as Hell to listen and talk about!

There was a thread some time ago, devoted to which Score host is the toughest.

Most perceptive thing you've typed in about a year.

It's a testament to how monotonous Mac has become. Tasteless, commonplace, and hackneyed thoughts and opinions. It's middle-aged suburban dad radio. Light up the grill, listen to classic rock, do some yard work, and quote the same movies ad infinitum. He can't generate posts or reaction on this board like Beerstain.

Mac must accept he is second fiddle to Bernsie at the Score. It's fine. He has a nice paycheck. The tradeoff is loss of professional status. Most guys can live with that if the family is taken care off and you can generate a nice nest egg. But can Mac?

This is such a great quote.

For years I've been trying to figure out why I could never relate to or embrace Dan McNeil's shows. You have perfectly encapsulated why.

The show talks Chicago sports (and Packers during NFL) with being assholes. Something 670 needs to get back to.

That is exactly what McNeil has become. To call Mac contemporary would be like referring to Mike North as analytical. He was able to skate for a lot years I believe because he posted on this board. He was also able to skate because people were intrigued by a lot of the behind the scenes things. His show has gotten stale and the lack of action on this board is a reflection of this. Not so long ago Mac was no fire not any longer.
