Wow! Have at it this morning guys! I AM a fan of Mike & Dan's but it's getting pretty bad.
Today while talking about the CTA (planned obviously),they brought Ce Ce out to discuss the merits of Chicago's transit....AMAZING STUFF! She was on for about 65 seconds then Mike said,great job and she went back offscreen...It's getting really bad! Cut the damn show to 90 minutes if that's what your doing to kill time.

Aw, give 'em a break, there's nothing going on in sports right now to talk about.

Unless, that is, you may happen to be interested in Cubs & Sox opening their seasons, Bulls making playoff push, Hawks going for home-ice advantage, Bears maybe looking for a receiver for Cutler, Masters starting tomorrow, men's and women's NCAA's just concluded . . . for god's sake, even the Fire's season is underway (right, Huebs?). Yeah, it's kinda slow right now.

three hours is way too much. Should be an hour then they could replay it for an additional two hours. I believe the quality would be much better which wouldnt be hard. Most people if any wont watch for three hous anyway. Three hours is for one reason and one reason only. MIKE NORTH. He thinks he's an entertainer and he can fill three hours like Mike and Mike. Apparently he cant.

Every few days I catch a couple of minutes of this show while skimming thru the channels in the morning. I must say, even three minutes is way too much. Hard to believe, but I actually think that the show is getting worse the longer it is on. North has reverted to his radio persona, stupid bits and yelling over people. Jen Jen talks so fast, she is incomprehensible. This show has TRAIN WRECK written all over it.

Jen Jen seems like a nice girl, and I've emailed her back in the day, but I am just not a fan.

I've caught the beginning of the show a few times. It's so stupid.

1. Mike and Dan start talking about a sports issue. They discuss it for a few minutes.

2. Jen is intorduced in that 3-block shot. She tries to be cute and funny. Jen talks like a girl talking about sports (except for Spaulding). Jiggs and Jen fight a little bit. Sometimes it looks like fun bullshit banter. Other times there is genuine hate from Dan towards Jen. Sometimes Jen gets hateful towards Dan.

3. After that Mike says "Hey!!!! Look who is joining us on the set!!!" (Like it's a surprise and not planned) It's either Cy Cy or Linsay. They'll talk about the CTA, Spring Break or some other stupid topic. It's a dumb conversation. The girls don't say much. They just stand there. Dan and Pappy dominate the conversation. Then Mike will say "Thanks for joining us." The girls say "You're welcome" and awkwardly walk away.

4. Jen does the traffic, Pappy does a ND or Nextstep read and introduces the guests. That's the first half hour. That's all I've seen.

Also, when they go to break or at the shows end, pappy raises his arms and trys to sound hip or something, its creepy. He hasnt let the score thing go and the one person who hates the score just as much is jigs, these two need to just move on, they cant go a whole show without mentioning them...today it was being made at the score because they wont mention his show on the air, which he then said, "well, they know i am better at running a station then they are"...really rot mouth? Yea, the score just score those big accounts like u, they can only wish a NDHS or Rosemont would come thier way...dare to dream. Pappy needs to realize a simple thing, he sucks, his dance is over, he is now heading to limp dick zone, accept it, embrace it, get the fuck off my tv douchebag, but if you have to be on, make a effort.

I love how he talks about creative control...what? Lets see, his new idea was to do all the things he has done the last 15 years, the last 6 which were a train wreck. Pappy likes to say he is all about facts...unless of course its about him, then its all about lies..pappy is idiot, we know that, now we just get to see it live.

I don't know why Cy Cy and Linsay have to be a part of the show. Only thing I can think of is Pappy loves having young, pretty girls indebted to him. He's the guy giving them a chance. So he's a hero to the girls. They're forced to love and praise him. They're forced to talk to him and show interest in him. It feeds Pappy's ego. He needs it. Pappy probably convinces himself that the girls actually do like him. You know the girls go home and tell their friends and family what a creep he is. But they have to play the game cuz they think Pappy will advance their careers.

After Jen he realized that young ladies will always be his producers and/or interns. Thank God for Jesse that Pappy didn't have hiring power when he started at the Score or else Jesse wouldn't have caught his break

You're right. Cy Cy does have this "Get the fuck away from me look". I'm an expert on that look. I've seen it more than a few times in my life.

Linsay has the ability to fake being happy around Pappy when she's on camera better. Maybe Cy Cy just wants people to know she's disgusted cuz it is embarrassing to her. Hot girls have an ego too. Even if they haven't accomplished anything. Hell, just being hot is an accomplishment. Cy Cy wants everybody to know that only good looking guys should bother talking to her. She has to take it from Pappy but she wants to send that message out to people watching. She's saying "I have standards. Don't bother approaching me unless you meet them."

There is a new sportswebio ad off the Ohio Street ramp on the Kennedy. The two young talents are scantily clad which made me look.
