ron883 Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 The negative side of me wanted smarmy old Rongey doing pre and post again. Didn't he post here briefly? Regardless, I'm fine with this. Good for McKnight getting an old gig back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chetkincaid Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 McDoink FTW! I don’t ever want to hear Rongey, or “Ranger” even say the words WHITE SOX again. Rongey came from that era of The Score where they were really condescending and rude to the callers. It was a big part of the Boers and Bernstein show and I think it influenced all of the younger guys at the station. Rongey was a jerk. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't remind me of B & B, couldn't stand the condescending jerks and your comment on Rongey is spot on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wegner Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I have liked McKnight's past work with the Sox so good for him. I also was excited to find White Sox weekly on the radio last Saturday morning at 9:00 since that is when I run some weekend errands.

bmags Posted January 14, 2021 Share Posted January 14, 2021 I enjoyed the wgn pre and post. I found McKnight kinda sincere but boring 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runtheballdown Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Heard Rongey on the Score just a week or so again. He used to get so frustrated with callers it was pretty funny. One of his replies to a guy that he was getting ready to hang up on was a classic - “ that’s a dumb idea and you’re stupid”. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
