This has had a great response so far.

 

700 is great. We've had massive slowdown lately and I'm pretty sure we've gotten all the signatures we can save a couple hundred or so that will slowly leak in.

 

1,000 was the goal, but 700 is fantastic. Brooks emailed me again and said he would mention this to John Rooney. LONG LIVE BROOKS! :notworthy

I will Not Listen to WSCR if John Rooney isn't brought back

Sign it and i will send it to the Score.

 

I don't think this will do anything...but I signed...something tells me Rooney might want a change of pace...he does have TV experience and could maybe expand on that.

A good guess is, the Score already has someone in mind whom station mgmt. is comfortable with and/or is a part of their corporate affiliate network.  I'm not talking about any of the Score hosts here, but the radio industry is pretty well connected and it's a big corporation so quite possibly it's someone from another market.

 

I would think they'd find someone who is capable of doing some PBP so Farmer won't have to carry the entire load.

 

As for Wills, it doesn't make sense if they intend for Farmer to do most of the PBP.

No offense to Farmio,but he's not a exciting PBP guy,he's a middle innings guy.

 

They need a exciting play by play man.

 

But here's a DON'T HIRE THEM list I came up with

1.Lorn Brown (Boring!)

2.Pat Hughes (HELL NO!)

3.Ron Santo (HELL NO,TO THE 25TH POWER!!!)

4.Jeff Brantley

5.Anybody who worked at one time or another for ESPN

6.Mike Murphy (He'll keep talking about the '69 Cubs.Oh wait,that's Santo's gig)

 

On the other side of the fence.Here's a HIRE THEM (If John Leaves) list.

1.Dave Wills (Money talks.And The D-Rays suck,so come on home,Dave!)

2.Joe McConnell (Is he still around?)

3.Wayne Laravee (Does a good baseball game)

4.Jim Durham (maybe)

5.Jeff Torborg (since he has the vote of confidence on this board.I like him too)

6.Steve Stone (A longshot,but what the hell!)

7.Bob Ucker :bang (I know,wired idea.)

I would love to have Bob Uecker announce Sox games.

Seriously...how many baseball fans are there in existence who see a pitch fly way the heck away from the plate and don't mutter to themselves "Just a bit outside", a-la Uecker in Major League
