  1. QUOTE(Spiff @ Jan 23, 2006 -> 09:37 AM) Jordan never scored 81. Unbelievable how some people can't just admit when they see greatness. COrrect me if I am wrong, but Sportscenter said that one game Jordon score 61 he sat the entire 4th Quarter! He probably could have score more if he wanted to. If you noticed, Even after the lakers were up by 10 or 15 in the 4th Quarter, Kobe was still in!! Why does he need to still be playing? Just to inflate his own ego more?
  2. Excuse me while I wave my happy flag! There are few thiungs in radio that make me change the channel. Mike north is one..... Piersall is the other!!! He is a bumbling FOOL who still lives in 1960.
  3. QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Jan 21, 2006 -> 10:04 AM) I worked in Radio for 4 years, there is no such thing as a "good GM". They do what they are told by the Man. I wish I could agree with your 18 month figure, but too many of my friends have been canned in under 6 months because of ratings. I have seen it too many times. If you want your show to work, you gotta be on your game and and cant let down. WOW! ok, i stnad corrected
  4. QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Jan 21, 2006 -> 09:58 AM) And 18 months is a generous number. Usually you get one "book" in the arbitron ratings. It depends. A good GM will give you a little longer, especially if its a new show. Sometimes, it takes a book just to get the new shows name out to the general public. So, 18 months is a fair amount of time.
  5. QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Jan 20, 2006 -> 11:54 AM) BTW, did anyone hear J Hood and Steve Rosenbloom today on ESPN 1000? They were god awful. I really like JHood. i honestly think he is way under rated.
  6. QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jan 20, 2006 -> 09:59 AM) Im going to go ahead and throw my hat into the ring for the show. I think I could being alot of local flavor. "THank you for tunning to ESPN Radio 1000. You're listening to SoxTalk Radio!"
  7. QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Jan 20, 2006 -> 09:33 AM) I hate the cutthroat nature of the radio business, noone ever gets any decent time to gel and become cohesive with the person they are working with. Radio gives you a quick second, then the hook if you dont do well in the ratings. As many of you know, i graduated this spring from Columbia College with a major in radio broadcasting. One of my teachers told us that basically, you have 18 months as a show, if you don't show significant improvement in ratings, you get pulled. Simple as that.
  8. QUOTE(Reddy @ Jan 19, 2006 -> 02:17 PM) just don't strap it on LMAO!!!!
  9. QUOTE(palehose23 @ Jan 12, 2006 -> 12:44 PM) Incorrect- Rooney broke off talks because he was promised his dream job in St. Louis. But thanks for playing Really? OH! I stand corrected. I never heard that part.
  10. QUOTE(Jenks Heat @ Jan 12, 2006 -> 12:15 PM) He is a SCORE employee not a Sox employee. The Sox have a say in matter but not much. The SCORE pays the bills the Sox get the money. You are exactly right. Hence why Ronney left. he was asking more than the Score can pay.
  11. Well, it puts him closer to the steroids commity.
  12. QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jan 11, 2006 -> 12:26 AM) Thinking of Josh Fields starting for the Sox in the future makes me ill. Me too. He is a BAD 3rd Baseman.
  13. QUOTE(DonkeyKongerko @ Jan 10, 2006 -> 01:43 AM) Get a decent pair of headphones on, close your eyes, and listen to this. They probably used Dolby Headphone to encode that.
  14. i didnt go to many movies this year, but of those I saw or rented, Batman Begins and Wedding Crashers were awesome. Hell, Wedding Crashers is the funniest movie I have ever seen!
  15. QUOTE(DonkeyKongerko @ Jan 9, 2006 -> 06:57 PM) I haven't read any of the books but I thought this movie was only better than the Chamber of Secrets. It was already a long ass movie, and it seemed like there was just too much material for them to cover. You're exactly right. I have an idea of what they SHOULD have done. THey should have done it like the Matrix did with 2 and 3. Devide the movie into 2 parts and seperate them by a few months. You now have 2 movies, twice the box office income and you dont miss anything from the book.
  16. I am going to get a LOT of crap for this, but I didnt like the new Harry Potter movie at all. The first 3 were good and pulled you in. This one, blah. It was good and very well done, but I didnt like it. I think i didnt like it because on my honeymoon we listened to it on CD while we were driving. The movie left a LOT out and some of it was some good stuff (I love the house elves!)
  17. The Score just announced it... HE GONE!
  18. My favorite was the guy who called up the Score and questions Mark's man-hood and patriotism because he wouldnt play for his country. What a dope!
  19. QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ Jan 7, 2006 -> 03:51 PM) It's always the people who are hiding out in the middle of nowhere on some deranged mountain man type s*** who find something wrong with a Spanish radio show, a Polish radio show, etc. Beleive me, I'm not knocking the idea of a Spansih sports show. I actually think it's a VERY brilliant idea by Mitch Rosen. That is an untaped sports market and the Sunday morning time slots are a waste of space because most people are at church or sleeping. HOWEVER, by aiming at the Latino market, you're recapturing that time slot and adding new listeners. It's a very savy move by the Score. I'm all for it. Bringning in Ozzie Jr is a very wise move as well. If nothing else, I'm glad they are moving away from those dumb ass "Ultimate Bet" infomercials they run. I'd rather listen to someone talking Spanish (which i dont understand) than the other crap!
  20. QUOTE(RibbieRubarb @ Jan 7, 2006 -> 01:38 PM) Helllloooo!! Can you hear us in that hole you keep digging? Is it racist to ask someone who moves to Germany to learn German? Or someone who moves to Japan to learn Japanees? NOPE! So, how am I being racist or anti-Mexican?
  21. QUOTE(The Critic @ Jan 7, 2006 -> 10:58 AM) I know quite a few Polish people who know not one word of English. There were a TON of them in my neighborhood growing up. You'd have to point at stuff and show them numbers in a store and stuff like that. I also know quite a few Latinos who are more fluent and versed in the English language than I am. To blanket ANY race is racist, whether intended or not. I'm just speaking from personal experience here, that's all. I only know one Mexican imigrant that speaks english well and he's married to my mom's cousin. Othr than that, NONE spoke more than a few words. Several were here for more than 5+ years. Come one, learn a few sentances.
  22. QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ Jan 6, 2006 -> 03:23 PM) Horriable Idea..When is there going to be a Polish, German, French show? Why are they catering to just people who speak spanish? Very simple (i am not trying to be racist here), but all those others actually LEARN english when they come to America!

  24. I think New Orleans takes Matt Leinart because I have a REAL hard time believing that the Saints will be in N.O. in 2007. The NFL is basically FORCING them to play there next year even though it would be better for the team to play in San Antonio. I am sure that will piss of the owner and he'll force a move to LA. Matt Leinart returns to LA. Seems like a big draw to me!
