Geez, rough crowd - I tell ya I get no respect.

Unlike Harry, I'll take the abuse like a man and not go whimpering to management.

If you think my list is gay, try to listen to afternoon lagoon talk about their list if you can handle it - christ on a crutch it's BAD.

It's humor people - maybe not good humor, but at least an attempt. Which means I qualify as Mac's replacement.

Nah - I'm pretty thick skinned - If I don't defend myself here though, I will be pussified forever and I just can't have that now.

I don't want to start getting called Silvy lite or something equally gay.

Nothing screams HEY IT'S SUPER BOWL WEEK like copying the NCAA Tourney's brackets.

There should be 65 movies, and I nominate THE WARRIORS as the 'play in' movie.

This should have waited another week or two.

best guy movie ever is "Roadhouse". Pain don't hurt. Then, "The Dirty Dozen". Then, "The Wild Bunch". Then, you got your "Tombstone", "Remo Williams", "Predator", "Commando", "The Delta Force", "Bloodsport", "Bloodfist" (Don the DRAGON WILSON will KILL YOU!) and "Marked for Death".

HHHGGGHUUUUAAAHHHH!!! Let the testosterone FLOW!

Ah Bloodsport, good choice!

I was sure that the afternoon saloon was going to go downhill fast without Mac. I knew that even giving the show a chance, was silly, as I had heard Jurko and Harry with Carmen enough, when Mac was on vacation/suspended. But what the hell is this crap??? Rather than "You know us, we know sports" are they changing to "You know us, we suck, but we know movies"??? What a sad development..

The guys that work on the show do read these boards everyday. We always appreciate your feedback...keep it coming. You are the diehard listeners and we love that. Mac didn't take the web address for these boards with him when he left.

Mac is great at driving a show and I understand you miss hearing his thoughts everyday. He didn't get to the top by accident.

Carm isn't replacing Mac...he isn't trying to replace Mac. Carm is just being Carm and doing his best to entertain and talk sports. Do you think this is an easy position for him to be in?

I think he is doing a great job. Carm has a lot of thoughts and really knows sports. He will make his way to the top too. He is on his way.

We work hard everyday to get better and be more entertaining. If there is something you like/don't like about the Saloon let it rip...but let's look forward not back.

Points taken, Danny. I've thought for a while, and stated just as such, that Carmen would be the "Mac" of that station one day. This is not the vehicle to get him to that destination, however.

_________________

I like Carm, but the couple of times I've tuned in, he sounds like he's trying to be Mac. He's better than that. Have him be himself and talk sports.
I won't be listening much as long as Harry is on the show, he's awful.

Carmen sounds annoyed with Harry. I really like him as a host and think he makes Levine and Hood a better listen. There is something missing here. It might be the slight age difference, but they seem uncomfortable with each other. I don't think they are coming off as genuine. I'm not sure how it could be made better.

I didn't listen too much today, but what I heard and Carmen wanted to sound like Mac, he would have said no to a contest Harry wanted to do where you take a player who is not going to the Hall of Fame and make a case where he could go to the hall of fame by e-mail. To me that is almost a waste of time.

It could be they need to get listeners involved to try and build the audience, but this one just feels dumb.

Early thought for next week, this movie idea gets hammered and one of the movies they are having in it is Up the Academy, I have never seen it, but the way Carmen talked about One that flew over the Cukkoo's nest, shouldn't it have been up there or something else.

First off, I like Carm. It was great for me when I would tune in at night and his show was on.

But Carm is replacing Mac. He may not be trying to but he clearly is. It's not his fault but you can't take Mac out plug Carm in a room next to Harry and Jurko and say he isn't replacing Mac.

It's unfortunate for Carm that he is in that position. But, until they blow that show up completely and try something completely different, the comparisons will remain.

Ted McGinley wasn't replacing Ron Howard either, you see, one was a son and the other was a cousin or something. I personally think Carm is more talented than Ted McGinley. He's more like a Scott Baio. Maybe he could have his own show like Silvy Loves Carm or something of that nature.

Joking, of course, I like the Silvy and Waddle experience as is. But, I hope for the best for you guys (you always read my emails and I appreciated it - made me feel like I wasn't wasting my time).

NOOOOOO!!!! Don't give Carmen the Ted McGinley effect!!!! That's not fair and that's why this stinks. He is not replacing Mac. Management made a decision. They should blow this show up completely but if the other rumblings are true, they don't really want this to succeed.

Well, of course it's not fair, that's my point. They are sticking Carm in this nearly no-win situation.

Carm will come out alright though. He's likeable and knows his stuff, entertaining. He'll be fine but this show has some legacy issues.

And he is replacing Mac. Everybody saying otherwise does not make it less true.

I don't see it like that, but I do think they are going about this wrong.

We postin' about guy movies. Its easy to talk about, its easy to sum it up when you just talk about guy movies. We postin' in here, W_Z supposed to be the board's premier film reviewer, and we in here postin' about guy movies. I mean listen, we postin' bout guy movies. Not a film, not a film, not a film. We postin' bout guy movies. Not a film, not a, not a, not the film that W_Z go out there and die for, and view every film like its his last. Not the film. We postin' bout guy movies, man. I mean how silly is that? We postin' bout guy movies. W_Z knows he's supposed to be here, he knows he's supposed to lead by example. He knows that, and he aint shovin' it aside, you know, like it don't mean anything. He knows its important, he do. He honestly do. But we postin' bout guy movies, man. What are we postin' bout? Guy movies? We postin' bout guy movies man. We post... We postin' bout guy movies. We postin' bout guy movies. We ain't postin' bout the films, we postin' bout guy movies, man. When you log onto the board, and you see W_Z post, you see W_Z post, don't you? You see W_Z post everything he got, right? But we postin' bout guy movies right now. We postin' bout guy movies. (crowd laughs) Man look, I hear you, its funny to me too. I mean, its strange, its strange to me too. But we postin' bout guy movies man. We not even postin' bout films, the actual films, when it matters. We postin' bout practice.

Z, the problem is you guys still have Harry trying to turn this into the Harry& Spike show.I've had a hard time digesting this garbage all week and I agree with the masses here that Carm is a great guy and the guy might cure cancer one day but my favorite radio show was ripped away from me and someone at your station will pay for it greatly and the first quarter ratings will prove that.

I'm fucking pissed at your station and to be honest as you asked ,the show sucks without Mac.Someone brought up the fact they resent Carm because he's sitting in Mac's chair and I can kind of see that to a point. I hated Bernstein for months when he took over Mac's chair with Boers.

You and Finji deserve better and I believe you guys were a big part of the success to MJH and just sitting with you guys and Slappy that day gave me a great apperication for what you cats do.

I would like to ask you to be honest when answering this as I've wondered if you have seen a drop off in callers and emailers since Mac left? Many have made a switch to other outlets including me and I was wondering if you guys have seen a decline?

I know that I have now quit calling this show. I actually called B&B a couple days ago, as I have made the switch. It's just a better show at this point. With Mac, the saloon was the choice, but not now. I saw the post someone made, indicating that "UP THE ACADEMY" was on the list of top guy movies, that the fella's are presenting to listeners to vote on....That movie was awful. Including it on any list of top movies, makes the list bogus. I don't care that Harry had a part in it, it's BAD. If Jurko and Carmen don't have the balls to call a spade a spade and dismiss it as a piece of garbage, shame on them.
