I think he is prepping for a career at the Illinois DNR or the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

Dan Bernstein in crosstalk with Waddle & Silvy next month

OK, I need this to happen just so he sits in for Silvy on a day when they're talking to Big Cat

Even better if Big Cat is in studio.

practice for telling parents (and weirdos without kids but still interested) about vaccines

One of my favorite subplots here is that Bernstein has spent the better part of three decades giving unsolicited PR advice, only to meet his comeuppance at the hands of a MAGA pro fish-life guy on X.com.

EDIT: whoops. Refresh before posting. Tl;dr - what CH said.

I'll be refreshing my feeds Thursday and Friday seeing if Dan is also "off" from the Organizations Win Championships* Bulls Podcast

*original title: "want your kids involved?"

It was a bad day at the office, however, when the principal asked him to explain what a three-technique was.

_________________

His entire rationale for not joining twitter in the beginning was a quote from George Clooney that was something along the lines of "I prefer to drink in the evenings". Bernstein couldn't and wouldn't take his own PR advice once the antagonist was a white guy from the burbs with a Blue Lives Matter flag in their profile. He let Trump do this to him, which is also fitting.

"WOW, DAAAAAAN, so this is AM1000, where the big boys play? Look at the adjective: play."
"THAT. IS NOT. AN ADJECTIVE!"
"...innyway, we're not here to play. This show's about as interesting as Greg Messenger reading excerpts from Mein Kampf!"

Has The Score handled this correctly? No public acknowledgement of any suspension/firing, no recognition of what occurred, Dan is out today/this week....Meanwhile the charity publicly decides on their future with him today. Which approach, whether agreeing or not with the actions taken, is better?

Distinct chance he goes CHGO. Not postulating or guessing, like they want him & he at least is listening. Backed up by my guy, one of their OG’s (who also had the hottest sister around growing up).

They haven't announced anything because they need an answer from their bosses in corporate on if Dan has a job or not.

I have no idea on who makes decisions, but, regardless, is silence a better reaction than announcing some action?

Order of likelihood
1. He resigns
2. He keeps his job
3. He gets fired

I'm guessing the charity already regrets their decision. They gained nothing by doing it.

Carol: This is our pediatrician, Ben Feffa.

just saying, you're constantly raising money, i want to see some results .

I don't know. He seems like he'd be disdainful of following the path that North and Mac took.

_________________

fuck no, The Score should start selling tickets for a fight between Dan and the MAGA guy. Lean into it, make your station entertaining for the first time in years. Boers and Bernstein was funny but the show was also constantly in some kind of fight with someone that either knew or didn't, but it was a great listen. I do not care what Marshall Harris or Leila have to say nor do I care to hear what Spiegs is currently repeating that management at a team told him and he accepted uncritically.

Is there a way that they could actually spin Dan's behavior positively?

_________________

It seems at least highly probable that he was suspended. Could they have issued a statement, without fulling addressing his status beyond this week, that his comments do not represent the values of the station and that they are addressing the issue internally?

They've been reached out to by media for comment but remained silent. Had he simply been suspended, someone would've responded with an acknowledgement.

The reason they have remained silent is because he has been suspended, but it hasn't been decided yet if the suspension is the end of it or just a placeholder while an Audacy Corporate office that just saw their C Suite changed this same day gets their ducks in a row to decide what they are actually going to do

I think he lost interest in hosting a daily sports show on most days. Wouldn't his type of anger be welcomed on a progressive station? That's what he wants to talk about anyways....Maybe he can even find a station that lets him talk anything? I don't think he'd do a podcast, thinking more of radical left show where he can be comfortable??

Dan's behavior was entertaining and he didn't actually carry out the threats he shouldn't have made, so nothing really happened. Antioch already said it but line up some callers, have Dan fight with them, let him be a heel, and let him call everyone that disagrees with him an idiot, listen to Marshall and Leila squirm, just be entertaining. That's all I'm asking, the entire station sucks. This would make it suck a lot less. I truly do not believe people want to listen to inoffensive Mully and Haugh, followed by neutered Dan and two out of towners, topped off by a show that makes a normal person cringe at least 5 times an hour.

_________________

They don't even have to admit they are suspending him, but address it as an internal matter and that Leila will be hosting this week with Marshall. Probably not enough to please some listeners, but at least acknowledging that they are aware of the situation (without actually addressing it specifically) is a small step vs. saying nothing.
