There should be no expectation of on air spots as a promotion for producers.

I'm not sure you can dupe people into doing the work any other way. More aspiring Jason Goffs out there than aspiring Judd Sirotts.

This is my thoughts. Mac is a radio buddy far more than anyone else at that station.

Which only people with tens of thousands of posts on this message board care about.

Who cares about a radio buddy. A guy yammering about his hobbies and family shit is as grating to some as when other hosts go political. Who cares? Talk sports. Not fishing, rounders, or whatever the fuck.

He's had a strong listenership in this city for more than two decades. People beyond this board have liked his work. The Score was built on close engagement with its listeners well beyond the straight sports talk. North was arguably the most popular sports talk show host in this city at his height and he hardly limited himself to just sports.

This is extremely misguided. Listeners enjoying a host talking about their everyday life is what leads to a loyal following. Sports is just the backdrop. Hell, I care little about the big 3 sports but I enjoy sports talk radio. If they spent 100% of the time talking about sports, I doubt I would listen.

Gloop was right about Mac nearly 10 years ago. Now the guy is just a corpse.

True, Gloop appears to be on ice.

I can see why some are not over the top about Mac like some of us older guys are but hatred seems odd.

I am a little confused regarding Mac’s lifestyle; is he sober?

As far as I can follow it I think he got completely sober when he was off air and perhaps rehab/ program? Now it appears he is finding life acceptable with some drinks and pot but not pills?

Yeah. He's said he still drinks. But that he's not a big drinker. And has admitted to still smoking pot. Not sure if it's daily.

What gives? You wanted Mackeyfish back and now he is yet you just can't seem to muster up the energy to discuss the show?

Where is a Beardown when you really need him?

All you Goff detractors complained ad nauseam about Goff and how your interest in the show would pique without him on it. He has been gone for about a year and a half yet the interest in threads in this section is at an all time low.

Again what gives?

Nothing gives. Noone has to come on here daily to talk about Goffs dumbass takes about race, basketball, etc etc. Its a good show now
