WSCR management was more concerned with having an ex-Bear as a host that they chose to ignore everything else about him (experience, other sports expertise, etc.). They are now 0 for 2 in taking this approach with Hampton first.

Will he need to send out another release that he's not interested in the latest opening with many in the public interested in him taking this role?

That was a typical "Larry move"

He knew Mannelly was getting it and tells everybody that he doesn't want it so he doesn't have to acknowledge he was passed over.

Drinky did the opposite. He was begging for the gig on twitter.

LOHO, always the bridesmaid, never the bride.

Mannelly is now on Larrys list of celebs who would "get it" ?

It aint the six minutes. Its what happens in those six minutes.

The problem with the midday show wasn't Mannelly. I think he just thought Speigel was a lame asshole and didn't want to be part of the terrible show and station.

i believe pat thought he would be bored after football so he took the job.

then a few months in he realized he had to wake up at the same time every morning and go to work. same thing. every day. and to make it worse he had to talk about the same thing every day with a buch of nerds. fuck that noise.

and admitting to that is not something you want to do, especially after just a few months in. so its just "hey guys, im out. no worries. peace"

Would be shocked if Mac doesn't return and drive the show again.

The sports radio abyss has kicked off and spring is just 2ish months away. He got to keep himself occupied with football talk and now its time to start working on the golf game.

He's probably going to become the next Tom Thayer media wise. A fucking long snapper but that's Bears fans for ya.

Speigel would be salty I think.

I'm sure you're right, but I doubt the listeners would really notice. He's pouting about one thing or another most of the time.

Speigel would be recast I think.

He has plans to be a groom now.

Does that count?

If WSCR is becoming WSCRUBS, having Danny Indiana Woo-Woo Sox be the lead-in for Cubs games prolly isn't the best move...especially given how thin-skinned Cub fans can be and how trolly toward fan-bases he doesn't like DaMaNa can be (see: Philly Flyers).

I think that relationship (if there is still a good one left) would breakdown. Mac got tired of him towards the end. I don't know if both of their lack of interest had to do with what Mac was dealing with but it seems like there are some strained feelings at least for now. I don't know if it'd be good to put them together this soon.

You're kidding, right? Mac is a Cubs fan. As much as he's a fan of baseball at all that is.

No, MAC is a Sox fan.

Speigel and Mannelly during football season
Speigel and Stacey King during basketball season
Speigel and Levine during baseball season


3 man booth when two sports in season

He signed a contract in 2013, how long was it for?

I think Mac grew up a Cubs fan then switched to the Sox. I don't get the impression he's terribly passionate about either.

Mac's Sox fandom is probably built around convenient parking and concession stand options.

I'm hoping that Grimace gets whacked and Finfer replace him. I wonder if Mitch would let Mac pick his partner again?

Kee-ryst, haven't listened to this show in months, forgot what a sandy vagina Spiegel can be:


"I didn't stick around after the football menz started slapping each other in the helmet...it spoiled the taste"
\

It's built upon the 1969 Cubs disaster

I wouldn't. He's not good at it. He picked Jurco but without Harry I think that show would have been bad. Spiegel is terrible. Finfer and Mac don't do it for me either.

So Pat is quitting because the only sport he knows is football. Wow. great hire Score. I knew that before the hire was announced, and I don't even work at the Score. Everyone involved in that hire should probably be fired. You can't be looking for a co-host every 6 months. Porky probably should be let go, and everyone get a fresh start.
