Bring back Spiegel. This is my first time listening to this show for more than a few minutes. Spent 5+ minutes talking about a baseball video game, used fantasy baseball to talk about Ohtani. He just sucks in every way. |

I for sure would prefer speigal or Grote. To borrow a Bernstein buzz word, McKnight is a replacement level talent. |

Spiegel is bad, but so if McKnight. The Score really dropped the ball. Yes, both Goff and Spiegel deserved to be canned, but have a better plan in place. McKnight is bad and McNeil is already missing extended time, which they should have known from interviews conducted. |

Grote is a better fit for Parkins. |

Is this the first time Spiegs has been on the air since his demotion? |

I think we are finished with the Spiegel experiment, but Grote might be a nice touch. Spiegel should just go and write a baseball blog and get really deep into it. McKnight needs to go, though. Too vanilla. Sounds like a college TA filling in for the professor. Blah. He hasn't ever said one thing that I find interesting or intuitive. |

Must be a little weird calling in as a guest during a timeslot in which you used to host a show. |

McDoink is a really annoying host. He seems to always be trying out a really bad stand-up act. There is no personality or substance to him. When radio finally transitions to computer programs talking with a human voice the software engineers will use McDoink as their source subject. |

As a youngster I never cared for Yak Zies. But I got forced to go there during a few playoff games as one of the few places with available seating that would also let an underage kid sit down. I'd go back. |

During the course of a whole show he has a tendency to go to a manic, Bruce Wolf-like place. Kirkwood wrote: There is no personality or substance to him.

It wasn't standard Brooklyn girl "uhhhhhhh I watch TV with my cat, uhhhhhhh, my vagina," it was worse. |

Maybe he'll try to do a Nick Mullen bit and be like "okay how about instead of Jason Heyward he's Jason N-Word" and then he'll immediately disappear forever. |

Kind of interesting that Bernstein would put on a guy that he always fought with, but not his ex partner. They put Spiegel's ass on because he was a reporter live at Wrigley Field. It wasn't because Bernstein likes Spiegel more than Goff. I guess that's gonna be part of Spiegel's role. He's gonna be a baseball reporter at the park. And I guess they've got nothing for Goff. They should at least let Goff cover the NBA finals. Especially if it's Lebron vs the Warriors again. Bernstein: We now go live to Cleveland where our very own Jason Goff is covering the NBA Finals. Jason, set the seen. Goff: Lebron James is the greatest man to ever walk the face of the earth. Bernstein: Anything else? Goff: Nope. Bernstein: Ok, that was Jason Goff live at the NBA Finals. |
