But now it may be rags to riches and back to rags--always an attention-getter.

This is probably what they found when they Googled David Hernandez:

http://www.davidahernandez.com/

"Mike, he writes poetry?"
"I dunno. Yeah, maybe. Dat's OK. I likes poems like Dr. Seuss an' stuff. Let's sign on wit 'em."
"Does this picture even look like the guy you met with?"
"Be, I dunno, stop buggin' me wit dese minor details. Da guy said he's gonna make us webio billionaires an' real quick! Get off dat Giggle ting or whatever it is an' let's move on dis NOW!"

i THINK IT IS FUNNIER THAN SHIT!!

North is a compulsive liar. He's lying about his contract again.

I actually "own" a few domain names myself! That and .50 cents won't even buy me a newspaper.

Or after hiring Jen-Jen! Wonder if Mike started calling her Jen-Jen because his wife
is Be-Be? A younger version of his wife? Wouldn't be the first rich guy looking for that!

I agree. This is the problem when you don't know the details and are surrounded by yes men. He needs someone who is willing to tell him shit he doesn't want to hear. All successful businesspeople have folks like that. You'd think Spaceball, as a lawyer and long time business person, would have served that role but he seems to have been along for the fun and seems like a real yes man (and spaceball). Frankly, all of the people who are trying to say this isn't his fault are the kind of sycophants that he has surrounded himself with and they've done him no favors. Like many have said here, he needs to listen to some of the naysayers to get a balanced view.

Hernandez was clearly the chief bad guy here but North made some huge mistakes and will continue to do so if he doesn't check his ego and begin to admit what he doesn't know.

30 people came over to this thing on a Bebe North google search?

I hereby apply for the position of Mike North's Naysayer. What does it pay? Actually, as long it's cash, not a check, that's OK.

It's a strange world we live in, isn't it?

How do you NOT pay for a freakin' background check? Talk about being a cheap BLOWHARD.

For Christ sake; you BACKUP mailcarriers get freakin' background checks ran on them. Part time CASHIERS IN RETAIL; you run a background check.

You don't go into business with THAT amount of money without dropping 50 bucks on background check.

He should be ashamed to admit that he was THAT stupid, and owes all those he convinced to come over to Webio an apology.

"Yeahs, sorries guys dat da money ding didn' go da way it shood ofz."

I don't really give a shit about this mike north thing, but there are some great potential signatures among this thread...

Anywhere in this day and age, you do a back ground check.

Something tells me Nort knew yet kept on with his plan.
Dont be suprised if you hear him crying on some radio/media outlet once a day for the rest of the week.

As a businessman, Nort makes an excellent meatshield.

Yeah, how did the interview process go?

PROSPECTIVE EMPLOYEE: So this can really work? There's the financial backing to pay us, advertise, sustain some initial losses while we get this off the ground?
MIKE NORTH: First of all, dere's not gonna be many initial losses. Dis is gonna be profitabul real quick!
PE: But where's the start-up money coming from?
MN: I knows dis guy. He runs like an employment agency fer nurses or sometin' an' he gots tree hunnerd million net wort.
PE: WOW!!! Really? You got any financial statements, accountants' opinions, background checks to show he's legit . . . ?
MN: No, but BeBe Googled him an' didn't find nuttin'.
PE: Oh, well, OK, then! When can I start?

It really is insane. Plus, anyone of the employees could have paid for a backround check. Chet, Jesse and Hood could have split the cost. They're all dumb. Not just North.

Good point. I don't feel for Jesse and I don't feel for Chet; but man, J Hood has now gotten hosed as far as working in Chicago.

Leaves WSCR because Rick Telander was an ass.

Leaves ESPN to get a shot with Webio.

Unless I'm missing something; where can the man go to do work in sports radio now?

By the way --

perhaps overlooked in all the hilarity over the BeBe Google search . . . when asked by Roe about Hernandez's background, didn't Mike say something like he ran a medical staffing company called Next Step and then went on to say he really didn't know or understand what it was or what they did?

Again, just speaks volumes about North's stupidity in this.

Which makes me wonder what he lied to these patsys about when he recruited them.

Everybody involved looks so fucking pathetic, they all got taken.

How in da fuck, with the exception of Crappock, does any one of these mindless sheep get gigs again in this town after this?

"Well, I looked at your resume, Mr Hood, and it says you were part of that big internet radio fuck up?? Ha, do you know everybody here laughed at you guys for over a month?....well, I cant offer you a job on the air or producing, but, we do need valets, and hey, our checks wont bounce."
