Breaking News!!!!!

Bernstein is the avatar on Mannelly's twitter page!!!!! Is that a message from Mannelly saying Bernstein got him fired?

https://twitter.com/patrickmannelly

No, Snapper lost a bet with Shep, I think.
From TQ...

He lost a bet on the Duke / ND game to one of the producers and he got control of Mannelly's Twitter account for several days or a week

Had to be more to it than the salsa thing. At best, that's an unpaid day / up to a week suspension. Ratings alone wouldn't or shouldn't have led to CBS wholesale cashing out on J Goff.

Sure its a lot more than that. He couldn't / cant get ratings. Had 10 plus years to build up enough cred and show his bosses he warranted a slot. Obviously he didn't do either. Why bring back someone who already failed to impress you? He's fine right where he is.

I guess once you've have had air-time on your own show for several months, you can't just go back to twirling knobs for lil danny and terry.

Speaking of knob twirlers, what happened with all the wscr producer types who went to the GAME? Mac taking the drive time/lead into the Blackhawks slot on WGN makes more sense than Mac returning to the booth with Spiegel for middays at the SCORE.

Adam Hog and McDoink have Memolo and Kozlowski's old weekend shift. Ben Finfer has fallen into the abyss for breaking bad on the air.

Roe Conn just took over afternoon drive at WGN, so that's not an option for Mac.

I bet Pat probably just hated the daily grind of radio. I mean, 5 days of this crap must drive you crazy. Watching sports and talking sports becomes your whole life. Much easier to do part time work doing pre game. Plus you have to deal with mentally unstable people at the station IE Bernstein

Finfer never goes back on the air at WGN as long as de Castro & Cochran are pulling the strings. Finji nuked that bridge.

Let me just say they have a bad team in the midday. No leadership, no creativity, etc. All good dude...well mostly, but nothing came out of it. They are paid to come up with ideas and implement them. Furious 5 was the big plan for the NFL season?

Its part of the reason Mac had to leave.

Not that I love Spiegs singing parody songs, but it was a reason he was hired. Remember that whole mix of music thing???? Ya got nothing out of him. Lotsa talking about it.

The big thing they did was treat themselves to a Hawks game and a ND football game. Nice work! lol

'What we did for you the listener, we went to dinner and the Hawks game...for you, the listener!"

Complete nonsense. Your hero, Mac, put the shit show together and then bailed out, not showing and whining.
Mac is now, once again the second choice. He's desperate enough, for what I have heard, to take ANY deal.

I could see them teaming Mac & Kap together. Both can drive a show and the days Mac doesn't feel like being top dog, I think he will have no issue giving Kap the keys.

Can you imagine Kaplan and Bernstein having a conversation on the air? We'll finally find out how many anonymous sources it takes to change a light bulb.

Kap is at Wrigley on a regular basis. he really does know people there and he lives in the neighborhood.

3 things bernstein claims and are false.

Kap lives in the suburbs, not in the city. Where do you get your info? Geez

Agreed.

Kaplan's failure at the GAME is the reason that GN is "happy" to let him out of a contract.

Just saying. This went down quick with no hint of it happening.

Fact: Spiegel told Bernstein that Mannelly wanted to hit him.

Fact: Spiegel, on the Score air, told Bernstein that his Bears reports were complete bullshit.

A week later Mannelly is gone and Feder hints that Spiegel might be gone as well.

Coincidence? I guess it could be. But I don't think so.

LOL, he gets paid either way. He's not on WGN and they are paying him. Little wonder they would release him to go to another job. I'm sure you are one who thinks Mac had a "non compete" clause LOL
Mac has a non employ contract for most stations, his addictions and problems are a non-starter for most.

Mac and Kap together would be something. But I'm fine with a Mac and Spiegs reboot, as well. Back back back!

This is twice that a Bear didn't last a year as the Score's midday host. Twice the ratings were horrible. First Hampton now Mannelly. You think Mitch is finally done with Bears?

I don't. Next time a white Bear retires he'll be the same. "Oh boy!!!! A white ex Bear!!!!! Gotta get him!!!!"

Going with your assesment, do you think Shep and Zawaski won't be a part of the new show? Even if it's just Mac returning. Get some boys in there that want to do some stuff.

For the afternoon show it doesn't matter. Drinky not giving a shit I mean. Cuz Bernstein can carry it. This show needs some good production.

Mac would get annoyed and/or pissed with drinky's nonsense and stupidity real quick. Maybe a month into it.

I still think if Mac has that call, he's gonna take Finfer over drinky. That was his producer and he actually got some experience as a full time talker for at least 8 months at THE GAME.

Mac isn't gonna suffer drinky's foolishness the way Terry does. He's not gonna laugh at every unfunny, stupid attempt at comedy.
