I haven't seen that on twitter, but the Bears sub reddit is populated by a fair number of Pace apologists.

My fellow goofs that post here are goofs, but at least there is a reasonable possibility they are actually real and not bots because the thoughts myself and many put out there are so goofy that they would never pass bot comment generation algorithm software criteria.

Leila, Wil Purdue, Kendall Gill, Herron, Goff all chatting together. This has to be the most untalented (except Gill on BB) group of sports talkers ever assembled in Chicago radio history.

I heard the hole show, and liked it. Guess that says more about me than the show...

I like the parts that I listened to as well. A bunch of haters in here.

Did anyone give condolences for the killed Bradley cop on the Score today? Didn't hear any on what I listened to.

RIP Marlene Rittmanic

Yeah they had Danny Mac on to talk about it, just like he did with Jeff Dickerson

It was entertaining. Better before Goff and LoHo jumped on.

Watching Leila on NBC now...she's added a good 20-30 pounds.

Some dinosaur thoughts in this thread.

Mitch Rosen or another Score exec needs to coach Leila on the proper way to tell a story. She frequently begins with a premise (fine), begins to develop it (also fine), then starts laughing as she's adding detail without having an actually funny punchline or discernible point (the first time you hear her do this it is confusing; then it just becomes annoying). That's why Bernstein and others seem to talk over her or ignore her so much. They have no idea how to respond to her.

dan has taught her to go into dummy bear super-fan chicago streets & san voice when making a modern, enlightened, progressive unchallengeable point.

today, the point was that the dummies are angry that richard dent's sack record was broken. dan was pushing this and sounds like a strawman to me, unless there is a silent movement to ignore quinn's new sack record.

she understand's what's funny....she's just not capable of delivering her own original funny content most times. She was decent with Ronge for their year end show.

She has decent intelligence. She knows sports. She's just out of place doing a radio show. Especially with Bernstein as her partner. She's a TV lady. Dress nicely. Put on makeup. Read the script. Smile. That's her calling. Not saying that cuz she's a women. Plenty of guys are also meant for that TV role as well. Jim Rose and Marc Giangreco are the same way. Just to name two.

I think if Leila can land a full time TV gig, she'll quit the radio in a heart beat. I know she's doing it part time for channel 5 now.

Bernstein should be solo. There was never a need to give him a partner after Terry Boers. He's had three since Boers. Goff, McDoink and Leila. All three just repeat what he says cuz they don't want to go against him out of fear. Larry has always followed Bernstein with his show. And he just repeats Bernstein's thoughts and then replays interviews.

Rongey brings nothing. He is the most boring of the fill-ins. Instant punch the button.

Rongey was useful for making fun of idiot drunk White Sox callers on postgame, and he's ok as a substitute with Bernstein once every couple of weeks on a slow news day.

This is a rather odd defense of Leila since it implies that she is better suited to be a producer or audience member than she is a host.

She's ok. She's better than Haugh and Holmes. Maybe even better than Bernstein. That guy is a shell. And a shill.

David Haugh is a sentient paperweight. So yeah, Leila is definitely better than he is. I'd place her a shade behind Holmes and well behind Bernstein, even in his diminished state.

Chet I love ya and love your takes here. However, please delete this post (not this post, but your post about Chris "Fuckface" Rongey) ASAP. Thanks and I hope to see you at WingStop next Saturday.

Do people in the brewery actually drink or is there some level of getting tired of the beer? Like a baker not wanting to eat donuts all day?

Idk, I could see getting tired of it and just focusing on the job.

The Score
Mully C Perfect example of an average host. Doesn't move the needle for me either way.
Haugh C- Meh
Bernstein B Would be an A if he had a better host and stopped trying to show off how smart he is.
Leila C- Boring; doesn't add much.
Larry C Competent but he is not what I want in a host.
Parkins A Best host in Chicago
Spiegel B+ Has greatly improved over the last few years. His mellowing with age has made me a much bigger fan of his.
Herron C- Definitely knows football but the Xs and Os of football don't interest me. Kinda boring.
Les C+ What do you expect for overnights?
Hub C- He is very hit or miss with me. So many ties to the Bears make me question his motives at times.
ZZ C+ Decent
Rosenbloom- B Good for the weekends.
Levine D Has always seemed like a dick to me. Thin-skinned and argumentative when people disagree with him.
Grote B I enjoyed his days when he was trying out for the Parkins partner role. I'd like him to get the morning gig.
Wanny B Seems like a nice guy. Great guest for the Score.
Mannelly B+ Boring as a host but very good as a strict, football guest.
Shane D Needs to tone down his argumentative, ball-buster shtick. Loses points with me over his hockey criticism. He criticizes hockey when he is a diehard Sox fan? Talk about a boring-ass sport.

Lay off that whiskey and let that cocaine be.

I read back what I wrote, and it reads as a defense, I guess...but I intended it as a soft criticism. She really does try hard to fit in but doesn't have the chops for this, even a few years in on the job. I can't believe she's still there, it's really too bad.

Rongey is great when paired up with someone who will make him loosen up and laugh.

Rongey and Bernstein have great chemistry together. Bernstein sounds better with Rongey than he has in a long time.

_________________

When I first heard the suggestion of those 2 together I didnt think it would work, but when you hear them together they do seem to work well together and Bernsie seems engaged in a way that he hasnt been since B&B

He clearly likes Rongey and appears to have a genuine respect for him that he didn't/doesn't have for Leila, McDoink, Larry, etc.
