Nice little nugget from my buddy at comcast today. Comcast wanted to have subs for pappy and jigs while they were on vaca, but pappy would have had to pay the fill in guys per his deal with comcast, so he said no. Way to take care of your guys pappy, class guy all the way.

This is the guy that would bitch about the Score going on the cheap. Funny how things change when it's your money. Didn't he owe it to his current sponsors to have live programming? They shouldn't have had to pay the same rate for reruns. Plus people couldn't get the traffic!!!!!

How do you do reruns on a TV sports show? Especially when the Cubs and Sox played every day. That's pathetic.

Maybe they can do a best of. . .

Nevermind.

Funny how he's so money-conscious now, but he and that COO over at Webio didn't seem to have a clue about how they were paying for six-figure salaries, advertising at the Cell, first-class travel to Calgary, etc. on 2,300 fucking dollars of revenue.

What an asshole.

Amazing. The more I think about it. Only months away from walking from a $650,000 (or whatever) to doing this WEBIO BS. Not only did he not research Hernandez,he did not do a feasability study on the whole concept. I STILL think it's a good idea but not the business model they had set up. Throwing around money left & right was way off base.

Mitch thanks his chosen deity every night that north did not sign that contract offer. That salary in this climate might have cost Mitch his job.

I'm still trying to get the traffic report from that day

Great North stuff! Maybe just a little tightening of the belt in the North camp???

Hiring Mack didn't cost Mitch his job (yet) so I doubt keeping Nort would've mattered much. Seems like Mitch has carte blanche over there.

Mac's only getting 200K? How is that possible? Is he doing the show on remote from the comfort of his bed?
