Hawk has taken it to another level this year. It's really bad. It's time for him to go.

 

I totally agree, i am ready for him to go, but it doesnt make the bully job any less shameful. Boers shouldnt be complaining about an old man with nonsense pouring out of his mouth, to anyone, ever.

  • This is tough because I'm not a Bernstein fan but I truly hate everything about Barstool and their hosts.

  • Then why aren't you criticizing barstool for not responding to her request to take it down, which forced her to file the complaint?

Does anyone think that B&B has changed from criticizing Hawk to straight up on air bullying? I know Hawk has really lost a lot of zip on his fastball, and has a lot of faults, but the guy really cant say anything without those two turning it into a all day rip fest

Bernsie... a bully? Say it aint so!

 

That being said, Hawk has gotten very odd this year. I dont watch their game son TV anymore.

I think he is having vision problems this year. He isn't following the games well at all. He is usually pretty behind on calling plays this year, especially homers.

The silence between Hawk and Stone when Hawk says something irrational or downright wrong is very cringe worthy.

 

But Hawk isn't going anywhere, unfortunately.

That's part of it (like when he called a ground rule double that bounced over, a home run during the Yankees series), but now his nonsense about aura the reason why the Sox aren't/are winning games and which teams have magical aura is just ridiculous. Plus everything is some sort of grandiose point he's trying to make about the game of baseball and how no one knows anything about this game anymore. What?

Why is the new bottom line so big and empty

With Dan McNeil away, is the Score tied up?

The $300,000-a-year franchise player at CBS Radio sports/talk WSCR AM 670 is missing again from the midday show he co-hosts with Matt Spiegel. McNeil’s last broadcast was June 13 — just two days before his contract with the Score expired.

Dan McNeil is a lowlife drug addict. Radio stations are enabling him by continuing to pay him.

If his contract is up, why are people worrying about him not being on the air?

He's taking his vacation time before his contract expires and he's already stated that he's not working this summer. I think I've typed that 3 times in this thread already.

His contract expired June 15th

McNeil must have 3 months of vacation time.

For as much as he has been out, I have no idea how he has anytime left. Hopefully the guy gets better. He obviously has some issues going on.

Dan McNeil @DanMcNeil670 · 43m

Not in a contract holdout, as @RobertFeder wrote. @MitchRosen670 approved time off before negotiations. Nonetheless...I remain mercurial!

Feder reported that McNeils contract ended June 15th. His last day on air was the 13th. So, technically he took 2 days of vacation, and isnt currently being paid.

Imagine if Mac had to work an actual job for a living.

He might have taken a payout for accumulated vacation time. So while he's not currently under contract, he got paid for 8 weeks (or whatever) of vacation and is enjoying it before signing a new contract.

that makes sense.

either way he said for months that he wasn't working this summer, this wasn't an unplanned rehab absence or anything.

nice job if you can get it

The Score is un-listenable with Rozner on the air. I really enjoy the Mac/Speigel show, unfortunately, the show is never on the air for enough consistent stretches. Chicago is seriously lacking in good sports radio. Boers is terrible. Jurko kills ESPN. And on and on.

Feder says that Boers is the highest paid Score on-air personality. Chew on that for a minute.

That's clearly a legacy payment than current merit.

That means zero to me.
