January 7, 201610 yr QUOTE (Alexeihyeess @ Jan 7, 2016 -> 04:48 PM) Zimmerman OUT at CBS Radio. Shakeups obviously coming. I wonder how this will effect the Score broadcasts.
January 8, 201610 yr QUOTE (shipps @ Jan 7, 2016 -> 05:24 PM) I wonder how this will effect the Score broadcasts. Boers is retiring after the Super Bowl so that should shakeup the lineup. Not sure what 670 decides to do. Bernstein will need a new partner but they are going to be preempted a ton by Cubs baseball.

January 8, 201610 yr Author QUOTE (shipps @ Jan 8, 2016 -> 09:06 AM) I didn't know Boers was retiring. Wow, when did they announce that one? hasnt been announced, but he has been hinting that he is just about done for a while now. Plus, he has been working from his home studio for a while, doesnt like to travel much anymore for work, and gets paid a lot. Its time, for both parties
January 8, 201610 yr QUOTE (shipps @ Jan 8, 2016 -> 09:06 AM) I didn't know Boers was retiring. Wow, when did they announce that one? They haven't yet. I know someone that knows Terry Boers' son and he all but confirmed it.
January 11, 201610 yr Holmes and Bernstein has a wonderful ring to it, but Lawrence would have to grow a pair to actually challenge Dan from time to time.
January 11, 201610 yr The Dan Bernstein Show: Listen to Dan berate callers for 4 1/2 hours! (with Matt Abbattacola)

January 12, 201610 yr QUOTE (Middle Buffalo @ Jan 12, 2016 -> 06:56 AM) I don't get the LHolmes love on SoxTalk. He just seems like the biggest nerd. Sounds pretty self-explanatory to me.
January 12, 201610 yr QUOTE (Middle Buffalo @ Jan 12, 2016 -> 06:56 AM) I don't get the LHolmes love on SoxTalk. He just seems like the biggest nerd. He's basically us. And he's not a complete jerk. Also, he makes an effort to talk about things other than the NBA.

Laurence has actually challenged Bernstein a lot in the past. But he has done it in a far more professional manner than what Bernstein would do. QUOTE (AustinIllini @ Jan 12, 2016 -> 08:26 AM) He's basically us. And he's not a complete jerk. Also, he makes an effort to talk about things other than the NBA. This is one of the things I like about him. He has been a little more arrogant and dismissive lately but I am sure bad calls on a daily basis can wear on someone.

Bernstein will need a new partner but they are going to be preempted a ton by Cubs baseball. So is he retired? He hasnt been in since the SB but they haven't announced any retirement as far as I know.

February 17, 201610 yr The 94.1 morning show of Pete McMurray with Dan McNeil, more music than talk and the drive/news lady is a pretty good listen
February 17, 201610 yr QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ Feb 17, 2016 -> 12:19 PM) Bill Simmons new website venture: http://news.yahoo.com/bill-simmons-reveals...WQDBHNlYwNzYw-- I'm somewhat excited. Grantland was definitely part of my bored-at-work rotation. Hopefully his show isn't a talk show like the Grantland Basketball Hour. That was pretty terrible. It should be like his Jalen Rose NBA preview videos - taped, edited and spliced with animations. That's his zone. Hosting a TV show is not.
March 1, 201610 yr Anyone listen to ESPN radio outside of ESPN 1000? I'm loving The Right Time with Bomani Jones.
March 1, 201610 yr QUOTE (knightni @ Mar 1, 2016 -> 10:42 AM) Anyone listen to ESPN radio outside of ESPN 1000? I'm loving The Right Time with Bomani Jones. occasionally once in awhile when I'm driving on weekends. Usually the NFL shows are good, John Clayton has a good one. I'll note that Mike Golic Jr. is a co-host on a weekend show, and he is every bit as horrific as you'd think Edited March 1, 201610 yr by SoxFan562004

I'll note that Mike Golic Jr. is a co-host on a weekend show, and he is every bit as horrific as you'd think It's 3-6pm Chicago time. He's got some pretty strong opinions for ESPN. I find it a refreshing option to B&B or W&S. http://espn.go.com/espnradio/
March 7, 201610 yr I go to ESPN Chicago to read about Chicago sports. Every other story or tweet on the homepage is from Jesse Rogers about the Cubs. The Sox are covered by the Associated Press. Nice.
April 19, 20169 yr Author i cannot reiterate enough how much i hate John Feinsteins sports minutes on the score. I really like Boomer Esiason, Jim Rome, I can tolerate Brandon Tierney and Tiki Barber, but I just cant stand Feinstein
April 19, 20169 yr QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 19, 2016 -> 11:33 AM) i cannot reiterate enough how much i hate John Feinsteins sports minutes on the score. I really like Boomer Esiason, Jim Rome, I can tolerate Brandon Tierney and Tiki Barber, but I just cant stand Feinstein Personally I can do without all of them. For one I think its a dumb bit to even try to make part of regular broadcasting. It just doesnt work and not to mention you are putting these pudwacks in the position to be really clever and creative in a short amount of time.
