To add to CH's point, this was 5 days ago. Accountants probably jumped for joy when they saw Danny Mac's tweet.

You can also guarantee Parkins won't get another partner

Spiegs is already on the payroll...unless he gets paid alacarte for appearances beyond his weekend gig.

Parkins is a much, much better listen with a partner.

100% correct, but the math doesn't work that way anymore.

You can't do two solo shows B2B, and you especially can't do two solo shows B2B when they're Parkins and Bernstein... They will absolutely destroy their ratings

Spiegs is paid per show. He said as much last week while guesting with Mac and Parkins.

If Spiegs is going a la carte then we're all in trouble... might need more of that flavored gum.

I'd like to see Mac team up with Jurko at ESPN again. I think he was miserable co-hosting with Parkins.

Speigs would probably take the gig for 1/3 of what Mac made. The score can take that on.

Mac isn’t going anywhere near Espn.

Jalen Rose and Jay Williams just referenced the Maria/DannyMac situation on NBA countdown.

This has def gone national.

This is really a shitty way for Mac to go out.

It's so fucking stupid.

Is there some kind of fluoridation thing we can add to the water to thicken people's skin a little?

You know the situation is bad when it has Dr. Ken using four-letter words. Completely agree, though. It's entirely unfitting for a radio language like Danny Mac to more than likely end his career this way. It was a simple joke poking fun at a sideline reporter for wearing an insane outfit. It's the culture we occupy now; equal parts tragedy and terror.

Speigs is good at baseball but baseball season will be ending soon. Where will they fit him in now?

If I was score management I bring back Goff or Julie if budget allows and put one of them w/ Parkins. Politically and image wise it solves a lot of things.

Couldn't agree more. I just joined this place to back Mac. What an absolute joke.
