LOL. My post was a work and was written specifically to try to get Mac to respond cause I knew it would hit a nerve (piling on the other posts before me which may or may not have been legit saying similar things).

Guess it worked. Glad you responded. At least it shows you still have some fire left in you.

He was responding to the Marlboro post. Nice try though, Rod.

He was responding to Rod Axel's post along with a few others. Nice try though, Marlboro (especially since you posted as marlboro so shortly after your "guest" post.

Mac got worked big time thanks to me. He freaked out cause he thought there was an uproar against his work ethic when we were just busting his balls. At least he was a good sport in his reply rather than devolving into a neanderthal like others. That's why Mac is cool (but still a pussy at times however when he takes days off).

What's with all the Mac dick sucking? This thread started with people bashing Mac but as soon as he posted everyone changed their tune. Grow some balls! If you didn't like something Mac said or did stick with it. Just because he has the #1 sports show in Chicago doesn't mean you have to bow down.

I just don't get it.

Also if you fuck someone like they are a millionaire they might go try to be one.

Thanks for having my back, GD. My co-workers will ridicule me for responding, but for the second time, this board as struck a nerve and some of you need some enlightenment.
The first response was regarding my absence following Game 4 of the WS. I was sincere in my apology and I promise you I still regret it, but that horse has left the barn and I can't bring it back.

1. Work ethic. Quick, tell me which host in town has spent the most time training and nurturing his production staff or working in concert with the sales department? It's the same one who is the only host who arrives at the station an average of three hours before his air shift begins. My show is in the front of my mind - not the back - 24/7.

2. Travel budget. I'm paying for the trip to Hawaii to reward four very skilled and dedicated teammates. I also pay for a percentage of our expensive meals/bar bills when we travel to keep corporate off our backs. Suggesting I milk the travel budget for every dime is the dumbest thing I've read on this board and that's a statement.

3. Vacation and sick days. I get five weeks vacation a year, five sick days and five personal days. The next time I use all of those days in ANY category will be the first time. If you're envious because you only get two weeks, I can't help you. Come work with me, and maybe you'll earn a working vacation in Hawaii.

4. Trophy wife. I'm flattered if you think she's pretty. She is, but I need to inform you she loved me when I only was earning 300K a year.

Keep the posts coming; they're very entertaining. I'm a lot of things - impatient, insensitive, a bully, stubborn, sometimes selfish - I grant you all of that, but one thing I've never been and never will be is a mail-it-in, check-cashing, pussy. My record speaks for itself. Thanks for listening, and for entertaining me as much as my gang of bandits and I entertain you.

you're overthinking this M.a.l.
message board posting, instant messaging, etc....has become a less "geeky" thing.

My only knock on the show is that it's just too scripted, planned, timed, and rehearsed.
