Was just listening to The Score about 30 min ago and finally heard someone call out the WhiteSox Pre and Post Game Host Chris Rongey! Jason Goff said he can't stand listening to Rongey apologize for the entire WhiteSox orginization for such an embarassing season in 2007. He also mentioned how Rongey never says anything bad about the WhiteSox, which personally drives me crazy. Yesterday I heard him say the WhiteSox are prob gonna keep the majority of this team in place, because they're better then they've been playing. What A Joke!

Anyways Chris Rongey later called into the station like the loser he is and tried to defend himself by saying he doesn't need the job he only does it for the fans. Then Goff called him Reinsdorf's apologist to his face and added that he prob sits in his house with his blankey every nite thinking of excuses to use for the following day! LOL! IT was hilarious! Chris Rongey is a F**** Loser

Once again hes a casual cubs fan who never knew much about sports.

If he doesn't need that job, I would take it in a second.

Are u talking about Rongey or Jason Goff??

I miss Wills. He was nothing special but he was listenable unlike the last two guys. Rongey just talks and talks and rants. Very monotonous. Take some calls or something.

Ahhh yes ... the Truth about Rongey.

Rongey is a Cardinals fan, which really fuels his hysterically optimistic view, along with being JR's puppet a la Hawk. But this is GREAT to hear, I have all the respect in the world for Jason Goff after seeing this thread and wish I had heard what he said live, because he's right on.

sweet since the sox suck let's find somethin else to talk about. the pre game house chris rongey. wow

SSI71 will be glad to hear this.

A few years ago the same stuff used to be said about Dave Wills.

Wills was about a billion times better than Mr. Rongey. If anything it's nice to have a die hard Sox fan doing the show.

I have no issues with Rongey. Maybe he doesn't rant like some would prefer, but I have heard many post game shows where he offers constructive criticism of the team.

Personally I always liked the guy. I still think he would be better than most of the broadcasters we have in the booth now. But I do remember the "homer" slam always being applied to Dave as well.

Anyone who has that job is going to hear that complaint. Fans expect these guys to go off after every game, and they overlook constructive criticism.

I agree....but Rongey is just so ridiculous, it's insulting to Sox fans.

Rongey is fine, I've heard him rip the team before, but he has to keep some sanity, have you ever heard some of the f***ing morons that call that postgame show?

Wills used to blame the players more. I am thinking of when he went off on Koch after that meltdown in Seattle on Sunday night baseball.

Why would you blame the players? It is obviously the coaches, manager's, and GM's fault.

yeah rongey really does have a difficult job...he has to deal with so many dumb callers calling out of pure anger and emotion.....besides i hate jason goff....hes a moron

Since arriving at 670 the whole broadcast has been ridiculous.

 

I'd really be upset if I was critiqued by the radio legend Jason Goff

Rongey? He's actually a Cards fan.

I have no issues with Rongey. Maybe he doesn't rant like some would prefer, but I have heard many post game shows where he offers constructive criticism of the team.

I agree with this.

 

Also, I say it's a good thing he's a Cards fan. If the Sox fans who call into that show are any indication then I don't want a diehard Sox fan on the radio. Wills was the exception but now he's gone. I think if you put a diehard in that situation it will be almost as annoying as that Pat and Tony show which I believe lasted almost half as long as "The Marine" lasted in theatres.
