Linda, Mike Murphy hasn't been on the Score in quite a while.

You could probably start a pretty popular station of former Score talent.

This section is errect. 52 guests right now.

When Mac got fired at ESPN there were over 100 guests.

So everybody give your best effort for these people.

I'm gonna play my drum for them. I'll play my best for them. Ba Rup bup bup bum.

I'm working on new speculation and theories. I'll have it shortly.

Who wants to be in charge of posting the twitter reaction from Score people?

First one to post Mac's social media reaction gets a set of steak knives.

Good riddance. Typical radio talent who became crushed under his own ego. Nothing but a hack now. Typical of most SCORE personalities.

No idea why Terry is worth his salary but SCORE couldn't pay for McNeil and throw him in afternoon.

B&B should understand. They always talk about "it's just business" and those dudes haven't been getting it done.

Very poor management.

Chuck Tanner best manager by far.

So you are assuming that this is happening because management does not want to pay Mac.

Sounds to me like it is way more likely that Mac just doesn't want the grind anymore.

As much as it pains me, I must agree with the gentleman from Missouri.

I'd bet the sticking point was the time slot...that both sides would have been able to quickly come together on a dollar amount without that caveat.

Predictable Larry reaction. Classic Larry, actually. Shot at Mac with the "No big deal" insinuation. Then immediately goes to kissiing B&B's ass. :lol:

Sounds like the first subtle shot of many that are probably coming. Holmes love to play a tough guy role.

I don't see how that's a shot.

What about the possibility of Mac joining the Steve Dahl network? Broadcasting from home would seem to be something of interest to Dan.

I have no idea of the salary demands, etc., but despite being the most popular show at the Score, I'd have a hard time paying additional/more $$ for a guy who seems to be on vacation more often than working, and when he is working, only cares about NHL/NFL.

I get he's earned his vacation time, you get what you negotiate, but I became an ex-listener because he just wasn't there often enough and was bored by most sports.

It's subtle, but I read that as a dig, not to mention, doesn't Holmes have a reputation for breaking bad on ex-Score employees?

I do think if he is looking for a job, it's completely on his terms at this point (lots of vacation, $$$, etc.). Will be interesting to see if WGN negotiates against itself.

It was a dig cuz he went out of his way to be dismissive. Didn't have to do it that way. Could have just sent out a tweet sucking up to B&B. But no, he wanted to first kick Dan McNeil in the balls.

He probably hates Mac because he thinks Mac took his gig away. No Larry, Hamp and Holmes being bad took your gig away.

I heard he also has a reputation for talking about female newscasters!

Why not just wish him the best and then go back to congratulating Boers/Bernstein? Not sure why he feels the need to be the protector of the Score.
