February 24, 200620 yr Spending over two hours a day driving from lake bluff to work, I get to listen to a lot of sports radio. It got me thinking, If I were the head of my own station, Who would I pick? here's the list of who I would need: Boers and Bernstein, Tony Kornheiser Lawrence Holmes Zach Zaidman (maybe the best, most knowledgable guy radio personality in town) Dan McNeil Harry Tinowitz Todd Wright (used to do the all night show on 1000) Carmen DeFalco Mike Greenburg Sox Team: Rooney and Farmer (of course) Bears: Jeff Joniak Here is who would be forever banned from my station: Mike North Mike Murphy Jurko Marc Silverman Mike North Fred Huebner Jim Rome Mike North Doug Buffone Lou Canellis Joe Bartosch Mike North
February 24, 200620 yr Tony Bruno morning extravaganza 6-10 Jim Daniels midday drive 10-2 Dan Patrick with Rob Dibble 2-6 Mac Jurko and Harry 6-10 That would be my ideal listening day in which I could turn on the radio at any time and be happy with what I was listening to.
February 24, 200620 yr I'd have the Herd for about six hours a day. The rest of the lineup I could care less about. (Amanda isn't half bad either.)
February 24, 200620 yr Bears: Jeff Joniak My last name is Joniak, im from illinois, Our family thought he was our long lost relative! But we never got a chance to talk to him, it was amazing how many people would tell me "Do you know Jeff Joniak?" But good post, this shud get intresting

February 24, 200620 yr Seriously, sports radio is few and far between out here. We get local coverage from just one station back home. I'm not above watching Mike and Mike in the Morning, however.
February 24, 200620 yr Bring back Tommie Williams, I enjoy Silvy and Carmen, Lawrence Holmes is very good, Mac, Jurko, and Harry are all good, and give me 3 hours a day of Dan Patrick and Keith Olbermann somehow. As for everybody else, you can pretty much send them to radio hell, because they all suck.
February 24, 200620 yr Kevin Wheeler 24 hours a day <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Why did he get booted from Sporting News Radio's late night programming? Do you know the story behind that? Wheeler was great and he got replaced by a complete no-talent tool (David Stein).
February 24, 200620 yr Author QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Feb 23, 2006 -> 11:29 PM) So, what you're saying is, you wouldn't want Mike North? I really hate Mike North. It might be the crowd I run with, but I don't know anyone who can stand him. I guess he must be popular somewhere, because the Score wouldn't keep him... If I wanted to listen to some uneducated moron with no experience in sports, I'd sadle up next to the drunk yokel at the american legion... and furthermore, he only talks sports like 50% of the time; the rest of his show is committed to his inane rants about his own personal politics.
February 24, 200620 yr My dream would be that every sports talk radio station on the planet go off the air forever.
February 24, 200620 yr Les Grobstein Kevin Wheeler Lawrence Holmes Tommy Williams Jonathon Hood Tony Kornheiser Jiggets and North ( Only if they are together, talking sports only) Mcneil and Boers "Papa Joe” Chevalier Arnie Spanier
February 24, 200620 yr QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Feb 24, 2006 -> 03:30 AM) Kevin Wheeler 24 hours a day I know !
February 24, 200620 yr QUOTE(farmteam @ Feb 24, 2006 -> 09:04 AM) Mornings: Mike and Mike Afternoons: MJH That's all I really listen to. Both good shows
February 24, 200620 yr Mike and Mike in the morning 6-10 no radio in between for me Mike and the Mad Dog in the afternoon 1-6, the best radio crew of all time.
February 26, 200620 yr Lawrence Holmes and Dan Zampillo I loved the Me and Z Show, they use to get the craziest calls and they actually had some knowledge about sports unlike others at the Score. (Also the old B&B show wouldn't be half bad to listen to)
February 27, 200620 yr Mac Jurco and Harry is the best show on the radio, too bad all I get in Madison is damn 670 (thats good this year though). The one show on 670 that is worth a damn is the Lawrence Holmes show, he's actually pretty damn amusing and intelligent (quite a change of pace from what you hear from 6 AM - 6 PM). The two shows I absolutely refuse to listen to are North and Murphy, how do they stay on the air?
