Early on during Mac's show they went to Boomer for a CBS Sports Minute. It was just Boomer doing a Bill Belichick impersonation of him giving a press conference after running a half-marathon. Kind of fun bad. This is what these bits have become? No longer mini essays but just any kind of air filler. I guess we can expect more free forum comedy routines from the zany cast of characters at CBS!

Hi, I'm John Feinstein and this is a CBS Sports Minute.

I phoned the local gym and I asked if they could teach me how to do the splits. He said, "How flexible are you?" I said, "I can't make Tuesdays."

I’ve got a friend who has got a butler whose left arm is missing – serves him right.

Velcro: what a rip-off.

I'm John Feinstein...

idiotic idea to run national ads. why not just run the ads sans sports minute?

I guess it would make sense if the guy they're presenting to us has an interesting opinion. For example, present a Mike North doing some odd opinion and have him say, "Disagree? I'm on at ___, give me a call!"

There's nothing in those spots that makes me want to hunt them down for a listen.

They are designed as a roll out for national programming. Luckily there was pushback almost immediately when the thought of national programming on the Score was proposed and Mitch was responsive.

Lot of you guys apparently LIKE national programming. Maybe the ratings would be better?

They're bad but I don't hate them. Always good to get a break from the chick from How I Met Your Mother:

"Marshall's on his way but he's lost somewhere in Wisconsin in a rental car?"

Other guy: "Hertz?"

Girl: "It does a little but I'm not gonna cry about it."

Maybe these are just overabundance on the Internet feed though...literally about every other break.
