Nobody and I mean nobody looking back at history cannot say Mike North was the most overrated, awful announcer in Chicago history.

I have MANY years of experience in trying to appreciate steaming piles of dogshit.

The future holds the possibility to be great or terrible, and since it has not yet occurred it remains simultaneously both.

Hate to tell ya this "Amigo", but that is sort of the essence of how life works.

Hand up, I never loved Terry.

He had that Bill Murray quality where people treated his every move like it was funny even though it wasn’t even an attempt at being funny.

“Terry…where’s the manometer?”

“Uhhh…ummm…uhhhh…Man, man, Isle of Man. The Isle of Man.”


Hahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahaha

You like St Louis pizza and never liked Terry.

Just go ahead and stick your head in an oven or something. My gosh man.

I do not like St. Louis pizza, specifically. I had fine pizza in St. Louis. It was like going to Your Pie or Mod Pizza. I don’t think the city has a style of pizza unto itself. Their most notable contribution to cuisine is Panera and/or slicing bagels vertically.

Ok well that is a little better then.

The city does not have a pizza of their own, but they think they do and always tout the great St Louis pizza. Bleh

The victims are the American People and the Republic itself.

Most unlikeable and unlistenable people of all time score and shows

1. Mike North - Both
2. David Haugh- boooooooring, vanilla is they come
3. Terry Boers - Bernstein could have done solo, with North most overrated
4. Goff and Bernstein - as a show, the worst ever because of Goff

Best of the score
1. B&B in early 2000s because of Dan
2. OB and Doug Postgame - Meatballs yes, but they were great after a loss
3. J-Hood when on Score
4. Danny Parkins - Guy is extremely talented. I don't know if his national show will hold up, but he will be in national media one way or another till retirement. Guy is really good.

Monsters was a great show and many would consider it the best show during those early years. I was always more of a HFC fan, but they really went together. I think there is a good argument to be made that at the very least Monsters was 1b to HFC 1a.

North was a blowhard and he got way off the tracks at the end. But in his hey day he was must listen.

So I do not think he belongs on any unlistenable list unless the only North you knew was the very end.

They do have their own. It's all about that weird, rubbery processed cheese and extremely unleavened crust.

I still want to try Quad Cities pizza. There used to be a frozen kind but I don't see it anymore.

HFC was appointment until the sun went down and the NW signal cut out.

Provel!

Didn't know Quad Cities pizza was distinctive enough to have its own Wikipedia entry.

"Malted crust, cut in strips with scissors" is distinctive, but it also feels like making weird shit up for the sake of creating something distinctive. Like, if I had to imagine a pizza style associated with a small metropolis that one would not think would have its own pizza, I'd probably imagine cutting it in some dumb way.

the need to differentiate from deep dish…

For instance, boers and Mac great. Boers and Bernsie bad.

Also I grew up in my whole life in Chicago. Must be a bunch of pussies or the need to differentiate from deep dish… but tavern style as a saying can die in a fire.

It's a fairly recent development, like mid-to-late 2000s. I grew up on squares of Rosati's and Malnati's and never once heard it referred to as "tavern-style." It probably started around the same time that everyone started pretending Chicago drinking culture revolved around Malort.

Man, for the days when the biggest complaint about the Score was "the station from Dallas fades in and the Rangers or Stars game interferes with the HFC or Murph for the last half hour before they sign off"

Are you stoned or pissed off, or both, when you create these postings?

It was a simpler time.

It was a simpler time.

the days when people cut pizza with scissors

I am not a legal expert, how many times do I have to say it?

the days when people cut pizza with scissors

and the days where expired ginseng needn't be sold on sports message boards.
