I listened to two segments of the brand spanking new McNeil and Parsons show today, the first day of the show.

So the Score was looking to shake things up and instead went pretty blah. It could have tried something new, like adding a woman's perspective or reached out to other voices (geez, when will a gay man be on sports radio) or other sports (as world soccer grows, sports talkers will eventually have to talk about it) but instead we get three guys named Dan. Wow, it's middle school all over again. And yet...the Score is still better than ESPN Radio.

He suggested the score should have given Julie a shot at a show. This guy shouldn't own a radio his thoughts on it are so bad.

He is taking the place of someone, that I didn't realize, was quite polarizing. After reading some of the comments* breaking the new line up, seems Goff got under a lot of white guys skin. All I can say to that is...good! In my listening to Bernstein and Goff, I never found the discussion of race out of place. Granted, I don't think the discussion of race is out of place, like, ever. We need to discuss race more, not less.


You can't dislike Jason Goff because I agree with his politics!

Speaking of limited rolls, it's a shame the Score didn't do something truly unique, promote/hire a full-time woman. I can hear the white bros howling now, but it's too bad the Score didn't give Julie DiCaro a shot at a show.

It's "roles," but I don't think hers are limited.

What a fucking asshole, huh? Sox fan who thinks he can dunk on deez-n-doze Chicagoans but he can't even proofread.

EDIT: "full-time woman" aaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahaha holy shit

The Spiegel and Parkins show seemed far too schticky for me; parody songs, over-produced segments, desperate attempts for laughs, just didn't do it for me. Parkins also shares quite a bit about his gambling which for my money (HA!) is about as riveting as the crop report

Follows complaint about schticky, desperate attempt for laughs with schtick desperate attempt for laugh.

They won't be because they're not interesting or interested in sports.

Guy somehow got a Checkmark on Twitter and now he thinks he's a somebody.

But I've got to say, "Always. Be. Talking. Race." is a new one from the #Resist Checkmark community, at least for me.

If all these people are such believers in the promise of sports talk radio that is first and foremost built around the liberal side of the culture war, they should do something about it. Come up with an executive summary, proof of concept, and start finding investors who will make that a reality. It shouldn't be too hard because most white people who call other white people white people are pretty bougie and have access to capital. The Loop was a heritage station and it just sold for like $3MM! I'm sure a motivated group of witty and snarky do-gooders can get a whale or two who can put that sort of money up for such a good cause. Then we can have Beyonce Sports Radio and see how it does. The only question is do you give Jason the afternoon shift or every shift?

Two segments and he was done with Parsons! I remember this article from when they read it on the air the first week.

Doesn't Laurence have teaching and Sirius radio hosting duties as well? When a "writer" can't even be bothered to proofread his own shit, I just tune out to any of his thoughts.
