If it was a different time slot I think Mac would want the job.

Yeah, that's just what we all want non stop NBA talk and a guy who thinks hes better then he is. please god no goff

I was just speculating.

I never heard the actual story.

Goff could probably explain here if he ever has enough time to do more than a "oh, you guys are so crazy" post to Beardown.

You know me like that.

Mac tweeted the Feder story on his twitter. No comment from him, though. Nothing from Spiegel either. Nor from Goff. He's just fighting with his cracker followers as usual. Drinky hasn't started begging for the job on twitter yet.

Anybody else find any sort of a response from any of the people involved in this HUGE BREAKING STORY?

Laurence has been offered the job three times since Noon and let them know he isn't interested four times.

It's far more than money.

And the worse position at the table is trying to negotiate with the guy that has no need to buy.

I'll give you this, no one here other than Scorehead knows about wrong more than you.

What are your sources saying on this, Big Fan? What happens now? Got anything yet?

Got nothing, Seacrest has it all, he is in contact with both sides of the deal, from Harlan to Zimmerman.

Seacrest sure is dialed in for what he is now calling was a part time job he had 15 years ago.

His demands reportedly included a move to afternoon drive

Not exactly breaking news.

And if he had to buy, he would have bought by now.

I don't get that. Mac is smart enough to know that B&B won't be moved. They're number 1 in the male demo. So why would he ask for something he knows he's not gonna get?

Because he hates Bernsie's guts and doesn't need the money?

yeah right. see in terms of the CSFMB goff is UP HERE.

















and we're down here.


he only shows up in threads to make a =) / smiley / emoticon type post as he's only trying to communicate "HEY GUYS IM READING YOUR BULLSHIT" because he's too good to actually get into teh muck with us members of the great unwashed over here. but hey that's why he's the bigtime radio guy, i'm the desperate superfan who tried using his sister to get through to him (you know, when i got "ethered" per spmack... tho why would goff want to knock me unconscious? would he want to do something with my unconscious body? the mind boggles

that said, i still think the guy's got some raw potential to be a good host if he can get over the ironically-vanilla/milquetoast/reading-out-of-HOSTING-A-SPORTS-TALK-RADIO-SHOW-FOR-DUMMIES book schtick that he's had when he does solo shows. you know he's the guy who has to go out of his way to say IT'S CHRISTMASTIME AND I'M BLACK SO THAT MEANS IT'S TIME TO PLAY CHRISTMASTIME IN HOLLIS! when everyone and their fucking mom who has a clue about hiphop knows that the treacherous three's "santa's rap" is the vastly superior oldschool rap christmas song.

and i also think that if bernstein really wanted him back and went to back for him they'd hire him. yeah maybe he pissed off a sponsor in atlanta but he was down there without FOTSteinian protection having his back to smooth things over... if they gave him a chance at redemption up here where he's got a longer and more storied history (THE GREATEST STORY NEVER TOLD! as some would have you believe =) yeah, i think all don bernstein has to do is give "the nod" to somebody across the room and it's done and goff is back.

but will he do it? especially since we know dan is all about the corporation > the individual? idk. it depends how deep the shit goff got into was.... but you could certainly do a lot worse than chicago sports radio's "ultraback" as goff is literally "whatever you pay [him] to be" for that night. sucky sucky $15/hr audience love him long time.

SAY YES DAN OH PLEASE SAY YES!

I don't have SIRIUS. But I'm just guessing Goff went vanilla and safe after the Atlanta situation. Cuz I'm sure he realized that going FULL BERNSTEIN gets you fired unless your actually Bernstein.

I'm glad that Mac is demanding afternoon drive. This throws it back in Mitch's court. Mitch is bad at making decisions but this one should be easy.

I think it's up to Zimmerman. Mac has told this board that THE SCORE is Zim's baby. Mitch's job is pretty much to make sure no SCORE staffer attacks Bernstein.

Zimmerman is not gonna move B&B to middays for Mac. Cuz they're already making afternoon drive money. So if they move they don't take pay cuts. So you'll be overpaying them for middays and then have to pay Mac and his partner afternoon money.

Zim loves his profit margin where it is. He won't do it.

I'm sure Mac knows he won't get afternoon drive right now.

But Rod Zimmerman is one of the toughest negotiators in local radio.

Ask Felicia Middlebrooks and the Reverend Jesse Jackson.

Tough to get Beerstain out of afternoons. He has the power at WSCR and he loves that time slot since he gets to play housewife in the morning with his kids. Then he can run home, put on the apron, and cook dinner. I bet he gets home before 7pm every night. Mac must have known all that. Somethings just doesn't feel right about this. What has changed from six months ago? He sits out for six months just so the midday show gets shitty ratings and he can demand more money? Well, that didn't work. I think he should at least be doing a podcast. I'd listen to an uncensored Mac.

Back off, Warchild. Seriously.

Maybe he's just putting all of his eggs in the getting afternoon drive at THE LOOP basket. I don't think that sentence makes sense but it sounded good as I typed.

But yeah, I mean they told Mac he couldn't have afternoons 7 months ago, he couldn't have thought it was gonna change.

This is the puzzling part. 4 or 5 months ago Mac tweeted he's be back on the air in January. Then January came and he said February. What station was that and why has it not happened?

Your mission, CSFMB, should you choose to accept it, is to find the answer.

Yes, he should remove his highest rated show, and one of the highest rated shows in the main dempgraphic. That decision is a no-brainer.
