Sid has the warm and fuzzies IN HIS UNDERWARE knowing Hawks is a real man. I'm sure you could be a friend to Hawks Sid. ............

Calling that weak ass article a BBQ'ng is like calling Halfwit Harry a funny comedian.

[Fields will] be the starting QB on an NFL roster at the start of next season. Book It!

There will never be an effective vaccine. I'll never get one anyway.

Gee, then I could be just like you with Mac!! What a goal to set.

I think your jealous you can't get into Mac's pants. You are the first one to post your lame thoughts and false bravado of hatred form him but all the while but you can't get him out of your mind. A douche , such as yourself spends this much time talking about the guy has to have the hots for him.

I think you have a boner for the guy and can't let it go

After woeful 2008, North, Jiggetts will rescue local media - CHICAGO SUN-TIMES

Also if you fuck someone like they are a millionaire they might go try to be one.

Stu... point taken about the article and about the grief shared with Mac. As I stated earlier in this post, I still think he is blow holing out both sides of his mouth. We both know he would like to sit on Uncle Terrys lap again and wax poetic about the good old days. I think it has been implied enough that his disdain for Bernsy and how he probably thinks he could coax more out of TB in Terry's swan song of a radio career.
The problem I have with Mac writing this article is it sounds as he forgot where good ole Mackey came from. Mac was a no-namer to the masses when he started at WSCR and thanks to reaching out to the fans the whole station thrived. I would bet you a dollar to a donut that if we were flies on the wall and could witness Macs true intimate conversations about Pappy, we would here a lot of hatred and ill will expressed towards the man named Mike North. Just a hunch. Seeing as you get to hang at Mackeyland (sp? proper verbage) and seem to know the Mac outside of the radio booth, you tell us. Mac is just going to do the PC thing and tell us he has an immense respect for Mike North and wishes him well in his endeavors. Bull SH!t, I don't like Mike North, chances are you don't like Mike North, and as I said I think it is safe to say Mac doesn't like Mike North.
And finally, who really cares about the Sport anchor on NBC5. I really think Giangreco has made the other four major stations sports anchors irrelevant. Maybe NBC is smart for trudging out the "b" team sports crew for reduced money. Your not going to be #1 in the Chicagoland market with your sportscast that takes 3 minutes at most on any given day.

I'm glad you don't care about the presentation, apparently enough of us here do though. So whatev or whatever other nonsensical words you used.

And I too can also be a cynical douchebag

As brutal as Daryl is, Paula makes up for it. She knows her sports too.

UNCLE FESTER +SID =MATCH.

I gave Mac shit for the article so I don't know what you assclowns want from me

Many a man has talked to her, then walked away shaking his head, surprised that she knows more about sports than himself.

I've asked Slappy a few questions about show things and he has said that he and Mac don't talk about the show at all when they hang out and he doesn't care about the behind the show things either and he hangs out with Mac more than anyone here so to answer your question I guess you should ask Mac and you can do that on this thread and I'm sure he'll answer it here.

Yaaaawwwnnnnnn!!!!

Looks like the BBQ was cancelled and a weenie roast was held in its place.

Ill bet you a sawbuck it wasnt cancelled...a few sawbucks actuallly

Don't miss the Sun-Times tomorrow. Unless it finds its way to the cutting room floor... thoughts offered on the return of North & Jiggetts... recent radio ratings... Darryl Hawks and NBC-5 (what media column would be complete without it?)... and Comcast Sports Net. The hook: the Cubs, White Sox, Bears and Bulls weren't alone in stinking up the city in 2008.

Mac, this isn’t intended to take you directly to task for what you wrote but more so to look at the points you were making.

1. North’s Contract. Could it be that there really wasn’t a deal as lucrative as reported? Between North’s words and actions it just doesn’t add up, even if the amount was 1/4th the previous amount North was reported to have made it would still be far more than what he’s been able to earn since his departure. I can go along with “principle” and money not being everything, but whatever disappointment here falls upon North for not being too astute.

2. Jay Mariotti. A “must read”? Why? Was it his technical writing skills? Insights? Ability to pee longer, further, and in any direction, and to tell everyone that the piss smell associated with him was “quality” expensive cologne?

3. Sustaining your own show’s success: More billboards?

4. M&MMS. Ever consider that your show feeds that show’s success? I know that M&H taking over for North can keep my car radio dial in place for B&B in the afternoons.

5. North & Jiggetts. As much as I enjoyed listening to them in their heyday I don’t find it encouraging that their TV success will somehow raise the water for those in your trade. When North was selling himself (and to an extent being recognized) as the face of Chicago sports opinion, I don’t think it reflected too favorably upon the rest of your trade. Those occasions of seeing (and hearing) him in other markets didn’t impress the locals and on a few occasions made Chicago seem a little less “worldly.” The fact that North has ventured into TV on at least 2 prior short-run occasions doesn’t lend much credence for success this time around. And, considering that the target demographic isn’t likely to be watching TV at that time of day you have to question just how successful this endeavor will be?

Then again, if your show starts picking up on whatever he’s discussing he may have a chance.

I can't wait for Mac's latest column, especially the shots towards NBC 5's Daryl Hawks, who I also can't stand!

I rarely troll.

SHARK, SHARK, SHARK.......

I am not a legal expert, how many times do I have to say it?

As far as Daryl Hawks goes-the guy was awful. It was amazing that he was able to get and hold a job in sports media in a large market like Chicago as he did. His death doesn't change the quality of the work he produced while alive.
