I think those that complain about last 15 mins should forget it. The initial surprise and emotion is never perfect. Judge monday.

Much love to my guy JGoff. The Score wanted a black voice and when the 6-10 guys passed J was the natural choice.

Why did Mitch pass on Matt?
Why won't white women talk to me?
Is Goff really black?

Some of the best radio on The Score was when JGoff and Laurence overlapped. I wouldn't mind them together middays. Spiegel is just awful.

Bernstein with the shot at Mac. What a prick.

Oh...yeah you're right.

Speigel sounds happy now, but he won't be in a few months. Goff has a strong personality and won't hesitate to disagree with or make fun of Spiegel. Spiegel will get pissy and pouty.

Goff is already calling out Bernstein and he's not even "officially" part of the show yet.

Makes this selection even better.

SPmack within earshot of a famous night of Matty drunk screaming at me, like I programmed the Score, then calm real talk with Mr Goff about his future, what we really think about him and why nobody likes Leary.

My response on why "we" dont like Leary....I then asked him..."Why isn't Leary with you right now? Herb is here, McCaffrey is here, many others are here?"

Goff 'you got a point"

Jesus Christ, Bernstein is such a phony.

What did the turd say?

This would be my pick if I ruled the world. The fatal flaw is of course Spiegel.

Question for the more learned NBA peeps here. Jason talks like he is an NBA expert. Is is my naivety, or does he not know all that much?

i think his sirius show was called "off the dribble" so at the very least it doesn't sound like he's too keen on playing defense. BOSH WADE PACKAGE IMMINENT IN CHICAGO!!!!! etc etc

Goff's an NBA lightweight. Reads blogs and engages in a lot of gossip. There is not a lot of substance to what he does NBA wise.

Yup. Now he's waxing poetic about the station being one big family and how rare and special it is.

Dude is a pathological windsock!

I think Goff has some silly-ass NBA opinions sometimes (from the Carmelo MF'ing Anthony stuff to the downright icky 'light skinned toughness' bit) but he at least follows and enjoys the league. He can fall into the B&B laziness trap of saying stuff doesn't matter because they don't want to cover it, but he's not as bad.

I think any 'expert' mocking is more back when he was on the CBSLocal Bulls 'beat' for a while and they brought him in as a guest in lieu of a more proper one. Or when he tried to report on 2010 free agency. You'd think as a regular host there's less need to even pretend you're an expert.

I think it's a good day for NBA fans when it comes to Score-listenin'. In the years since his departure he's been doing an NBA-only show, so you'd think he's improved, too.

goff's fine... what biggie said in another thread about not necessarily learning "humility" versus "corporate red tape" seems spot on cuz i agree that i figured he'd be back at the score a lot sooner than this.

i'm just hoping whatever co/hosts he has can prevent him from grabbing his trusty copy of "sports talk radio show hosting for dummies" that he used for his ironically-vanilla solo/nighttime/weekend gigs (minus the "the rent is too damn high!" stuff), but i think that's the power of having a second voice in the booth. you don't have to run through your head thinking "what am i supposed to do? oh yeah i'm the black guy and it's december so let's play christmas in hollis!" -- you get reset by the other guy.

good luck gofferino! lord knows chicago radio needs you like old threads need spmack! =D

"This was the one right move to make"

It makes sense, though. The Score's daytime lineup is -- was -- very white for a Chicago sports station.

Probably the best choice, but I might wind up taking that back once I realize the Team Bernstein ramifications of this.
