While I understand your point about generic radio, I just don't understand why you thought you'd hear in-depth college talk on a show that's primarily pro football and baseball oriented.


Because they were talking to Zook in the first place and I expected more from a MJH. (It was not like they were talking to Derek Lee or someone as unscintillating as that.) The fact is, there was some pertinent injury info they could have tried to get out of him if they had been prepared.

I understand the concept of ratings. My point is, a good knowledgable host should make almost any sports topic interesting on the radio and people will stay tuned in. I also do not agree that Chicago is not a "college sport" town and I never understood why people think that. I think of it is a pro AND a college town (I am a fan of both and I am sure I am not alone), though I can see the "overlap" between the two audiences as not necessarily being 100%. There are certainly tons of bars seeking to align themselves with various schools for Saturday game viewings.

Did Harry ask about Chief Illiniwek? That's his No. 1 question about Illinois sports.
