Dear Fuckface or Fuckfaces,

Who the fuck is running this nickel and dime shitshow? Your website might as well be a goddamn geocities or angelfire page from 10 years ago...an abominable clusterfuck of disorganized content geared toward 16 year olds. Is it absolutely impossible to add a simple podcast rss feed that I can add to DriveCast? I'd like to be able to listen to the shows that I miss, but you seem to have made any possibility of listening outside of your shitty website an impossibility. Is the WSCR webmaster still too busy working on that big project of adding even more photo galleries of scantily clad bimbos that nobody gives a flying fuck about to the front page, because the last Boers & Bernstein shows listed in iTunes are from fucking FUCKING MAY 20th.

The station seems to be doing quite nicely for itself at the moment, so it absolutely baffles me that you trot out this completely Rube Goldbergian, unnavigable trainwreck of a website and expect it to be taken seriously. The site is constantly promoted on all of the shows, begging us to go there for it's rich tapestry of content. BULLSHIT. If you manage to find a blog written by a host after sifting through a few layers of Flash menus and hellish advertising, you'll find it rendered in a narrow vertical column bound on either side by more ads and, of course, the background table with the White Sox logos, so you end up scrolling down 8 times to read a 3 paragraph blog.

Furthermore, if you think I am going to sit down at my computer and listen to 4 hours of radio through your shitty little Flash player that people were using in Wordpress about 4 years ago you're out of your Goddamn mind. Perhaps this hasn't come to your attention, but, everyone is carrying computers in the pockets these days, and if you can't accommodate the exponentially fast-growing market of internet capable smart phones and mp3 players by making podcasts easily accessible to people on the go, then go fuck yourself. Guess I'll just have to go on not listening. Enjoy the dearth of traffic you get from mouth-breathing perverts who want bikini pictures, because your site won't get anymore hits from this IP address until you get your shit together.

Fuckily yours,

G.S. Clam, Esq.

SFA, thank you. Not for bringing attention to a website that I can't get due to dialup internet, but thank you for posting in your inimitable way. You sir have made my day

If anyone has a problem with the current design of 670thescore.com, 93xrt.com, wbbm780.com or other CBS Radio-owned station Web sites, it's not the station's fault they look clunky. Point the blame towards CBS Corporate and IT in New York...

Post Of The Year, SFA!!!!!! :cheers: :salut:

I like the NSJ contribution too. How did you get a picture of The Danny Mac Show's executive producer so easily? I don't think he would have put that on his facebook. :? I keed, Jay...I keed. :P

What is really a shame, is that the current site is the NEW and IMPROVED!

You can say what you want about my shit sites, but I have never taken 5 steps backwards.

I agree. I don't understand this web site. It's pathetic for a major radio station, in a major city, to present this web site to it's listeners. It's confusing as hell. You don't know where to go for anything.

I know they think we're all sex pigs with their photos of hot women. There are plenty of better places to go on the internet for that. It's not needed on their site.

I can't remember the last time I agreed with literally everything (or anything) you had written in a single post. Wow. Good job.

If you think 670thescore.com looks clunky right now, feast your eyes on this. You'll be pulling your hair out after you read the following...

That is just unacceptable. No wonder why Spiegs pushes for people to post stuff on their facebook wall or look at their pics and links there.....just brutal.

Once again the corporate big wigs just don't get it. I think I speak for most here in saying that all we want is info about the remotes, some pics from remotes (yeah, I'll call them remotes), how to email them and text, and maybe a few pics of some scantily glad beauties isn't too bad (but how about one's we've actually heard of).

You may have read about it, and now it's official. If anyone wants to see what the new Web site looks like, check this out:

Much better. But those pics of the radio hosts look godawful. Good thing they are only thumbnails.

Nicely done Soup Fan. No doubt WSCR is not happy with the CBS web site. It looks & feels like one of the very first web sites developed back in the '90's. Terrible.
