June 30, 200421 yr Wasn't the end of June the deadline for Chimp contract extension? If they haven't offered anything to him by now doesn't this mean the end of Chimp? God I hope it is
June 30, 200421 yr Wasn't the end of June the deadline for Chimp contract extension? If they haven't offered anything to him by now doesn't this mean the end of Chimp? God I hope it is He's not going anywhere.
June 30, 200421 yr Author He's not going anywhere. Did he get an extension? I haven't heard anything. what makes you say he isn't going any where.
June 30, 200421 yr I just doubt the Cubs would drop him; usually changes are rare in broadcasting. Who knows though since the Sox, Cubs, Hawks, and Bulls are all making that new station.

June 30, 200421 yr Are you talking Comcast Chicago? I doubt that changes anything for at least a little while.
June 30, 200421 yr Yeah....The Sox, Cubs, Hawks, and Bulls are all leaving FSN Chicago to make their own channel to increase profits in the fall.
July 1, 200421 yr Wasn't the end of June the deadline for Chimp contract extension? If they haven't offered anything to him by now doesn't this mean the end of Chimp? God I hope it is Shouldn't matter if you don't watch Cub games!
July 1, 200421 yr Just a little question about this Comcast Chicago sports channel that's gonna come about starting October...Will it be available for those with just basic cable? Is this an extra channel that you have to pay for? What are the specifics about this channel? I'm moving in a few months to my own apartment and want to know which cable package I need to get to insure myself the opportunity of getting this Comcast Chicago sports channel.
July 2, 200421 yr Just a little question about this Comcast Chicago sports channel that's gonna come about starting October...Will it be available for those with just basic cable?

I'm moving in a few months to my own apartment and want to know which cable package I need to get to insure myself the opportunity of getting this Comcast Chicago sports channel. I'm going to assume that it will be on most if not all basic cable packages. I cannot IMAGINE that the Sox want to take a chance of repeating the SportsVision debacle. They still take PR hits about that s***. Heard on the radio that the Cubs and Chimp are still negotiating an extension and expect to come to an agreement soon. Can't fathom why the Cubs would pass up an opportunity to revamp their dismal broacast teams, but oh well.... My suggestion to them would be to pair Pat Hughes with Stone on TV, and FIRE RON SANTO YESTERDAY and put together a new radio team.
July 2, 200421 yr I also believe Chip will stay with the Cubs for some time. My suggestion to them would be to pair Pat Hughes with Stone on TV, and FIRE RON SANTO YESTERDAY and put together a new radio team. How can that be? Santo is always on FIRE
July 2, 200421 yr Santo is always on FIRE See the joke I quoted in the "worst Santo quote ever" thread and this line will be even funnier!
