Isn't this part of Mike North's downfall? He was the biggest draw on the score. He broke up North and Jiggetts so he could have his own solo show. From what I heard, he often had non-sports segment on his show.
This is what killed the Bernstein and Goff show. I really enjoyed Bernstein back then, as that was right after the end of B&B. But Bernstein and Goff was terrible. It would always devolve into them ripping into a caller for being racist.
The Score sucks now. Still living off the reputation of the glory days. Sports gambling is the only thing keeping it alive.
Bernstein had offers to be go national just like Greenberg did. He chose to stay as a local Chicago guy though. However, that was 20 years ago. Local radio guys were making big bucks back then.
This. He was the only reason I still listened on occasion. Don't get me wrong, it was still a far cry from his B&B glory days. But the current hosts suck absolute ass. Afternoon show is garbage without Parkins. Harris is a complete mess. The Midday show will now be completely unlistenable. Harris and Leila? Puke.
So even if Ishbia has more shares than Reinsdorf, Reinsdorf is still calling the shots? Is that what Im hearing? Does Ishbia need 50%+ to get full control?
Jerry is going to hold a special celebration for White Sox scout, Jerry Krause. Accepting the award will be his widow Thelma Krause. Above her head will be a "Boo" audience cue card and Jerry will be providing tomatoes to any fans who want to lob them at her.
Only 3.5m next year, 1.5m buyout. Honestly, this is a slam dunk move by Getz. 2nd half of the season with the Padres he had a 3.4 ERA with a 1.2 WHIP. He pitched his ass off. Given the salary restrictions by the owner, this is an A move by Getz.
