Is this guy the biggest d-bag in Chicago sports media? I have no idea why Waddle and Silvy have him on besides being mandated by ABC/ESPN. I guess i never got why people liked this guy

I always was a huge fan of giangreco. I know he didn't have ill will in his stupid Wally comment on live TV but he should have been fired for it.

Now he's playing Goff bashing president Trump to top it off.

Besides promoting the sponsor, Chicago Cut restraurant, and talking a bit about his personal life he doesn't add much to the show. Given what he does for a living he doesn't really seem to know much about sports as his opinion usually sound like those or a bad caller.

Dude, this Giangreco guy knows Buffalo sports like no else in the city, Sabres, Bills, even Patty Kane and his peeps, I think, the guy knows the inside scoop!

Never liked him.

Also never liked him. He should have been black balled after Walter Payton incident.

Seems like the kind of guy who would like to watch you fuck his wife

Giangreco teared up in 2005. Good enough for me. (Identity politics!)

I like Giangreco on W&S.

While it was completely uncomfortable after the fact there is no way Giangreco would have made the comment if had any inkling of what was going on with Payton. Regardless of your opinion of of him as a sports guy he shouldn’t be shamed for that.

I guess I like him, but he said that his favorite group of all time is Culture Club. So he’s bumpin’ “Karma Chameleon”, “Do You Really Want To Hurt Me” and stuff like that. I’m not saying, I’m just saying.

wow he's still around? he always looked fake to me. never really had an opinion either way. just a guy who reads a script. not even close to the legend Tim Weigal was. Actually thinking back wasnt it him that pushed Weigal out of Channel 7?

Weigel

quite possibly the luckiest guy in local media over the past 20 years

I don't mind him. He's basically a slightly more refined Fritzy

I always like it when he’s on with Waddle and Silvy.

always liked him because the man would actually show blackhawk highlites and had a thought or two about hockey. tim weigel was the same way...jim rose would spend 54 seconds on a bulls preseason game and then quickly tells us the score of the hawks' home opener.

johnny morris....hmmm. the blackhawks played? i have film of doug plank's 4 missed tackles going for the killer hit and avellini's 3 completions last sunday.

channel 9 used to show hawk road games with a northwest orient airlines commercial at every break. as a kid, i remember rick talley and brickhouse do sports on their nightly news.

i rate my sports anchors based on the hockey exposure they gave their audience. i suppose bulls fans did and do the same with bulls exposure.

A very important and necessary bump.

Fucking random lol

In addition to him being an unfunny and smarmy douche, lets not forget him jumping right in on the " Patrick Kane is a rapist cuz im from Buffalo and my sources say he's guilty " bandwagon.

Let new posters post where they want. Bump the OG thread for them.

Well couple things there . Giangreco walked back his original take at some point while Julie continues to " believe the victim". Giangreco doesnt go on daily unhinged hypocritical rants that continually paint him as some sort of victim. Other than that youre correct, they should have the same amount of coverage here.

Yeah. Their content is exactly the same.

Enjoyed Giangreco's W&S appearances back shortly after the demise of MJ&H and everyone was listening to W&S for a minute (iirc). Always seemed to be getting Waddle into trouble out drinking. Mark might've been recently divorced and enjoying a 2nd go at his 20's.

The problem is that he somewhat legitimized her diatribe by jumping on the same premature judgment. He can't have it both ways.
