Good. I don't want anything to get in the way of my dream pairing of Laurence and McKnight. Now that's some good times radio.

Also, whilst the "beardown has lost his fastball" thing is a meme, i'm telling you these last few posts were clocked at ~95 on the gun. nice movement too...

An afternoon show with Mac on 'GN makes perfect sense. Gives the new target demo a solid option either post-Cubs day games or pre-Cubs/Hawks night games. If the Cubs shift Friday day games to 3:05, then Mac gets an additional 13 Fridays off per year.

You guys are all high. Mac is on middays. He's not going on afternoon drive anywhere. WGN wouldn't want that lazy, crybaby tumor on its staff.

Mitch says I could put someone on there at 1/3 Mac's salary easy and get the same numbers. You clods listen to the Fatpants shitshow every day.

Mac is too lazy to write, and too limited for sattelite. If he doesn't take another recession contract, he can go work in Milwaukee or some other cow town.

I understand you have quite a disdain for Mac, but this is factually incorrect. For whatever reason, the ratings have followed Mac wherever he went.

For fuck's sake, I hope so. Out yourself, Gloopan, or STFU about Mac already.

4) Mac has begun secretly negotiating to become the drive-time host on a rival station that will soon adopt a mostly sports-talk format and is already beginning a new round of sports-talk wars!

Many here have predicted that Mac would eventually regain his afternoon drive-time hosting gig. Those prognostications are correct. But he won't do so at the Score.


This is the smartest thing in this thread.


Well it IS a Beardown thread.

Do you really think WGN would have Mac as their afternoon host? That's an "older" audience and I'm not sure Mac pushing the boundries of good taste would go over real well with a high brow audience. He would have to tone down his masterbation/porn, bathroom and recreational drug use talk and I'm not sure if he's willing to do that at this point in his career. This would be like Howard going to WNBC. It would be an entertaining disaster.


That has been true for 40 years. It's obvious they are working on making this demo lose interest. Senior citizens don't buy that products that they run ads for. Wert and DeCastro are legends in Chicago radio. They made AM 1000 a top 15 station nationally. I would never doubt them to do it again with WGN.

Mac & Thomas Jefferson in the afternoons!

I'm all for a WGN reformat. It's a dead station to me.

I never listen to it and I used to listen to Uncle Bobby in the mornin'. I'd listen to Mac if he moved there.

I like Garry Meyer alot. The rest of the hosts on WGN I don't really care for. I used to like Johnny B, but his WGN morning show is a mess. He's all over the place. WGN could definitely give the Score a run for its money if it does indeed become more sports oriented.
