They hurt my ears and mind with shitty takes. Les Grobstein was the last entertaining personality and that is because callers would troll him.

I love Les, but his show was only digestible in small clips. Weird you’d think he was the most listenable
"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.

And I'm not listening to the worse shit on ESPN1000 either.

Well we agree on that, ESPN is a tough listen for me.

He’s mentioned that he likes some of them. I have more of a problem with his play-calling than his actual plays.

I can understand that.

Brutally bad? How so? Glad to know you haven’t cancelled his manhood over a throw from the mound.

It just got overly repetitive and too gambling focused. Did you know Parkins likes weed?!

At the end of the day, getting the Cub may have killed any semblance of interesting thoughts the hosts had. Doug Buffone dying killed the Bear post game show.

I only listen to ESPN if The Score is talking about something incredibly boring. Like Marathon talk or Saturday baseball shows during football season.

Almost everyone on ESPN sounds the same to me.

I didn’t care for him at first, but Parkins grew on me. He’s pretty good at his job. I do feel he needs someone like Spiegel to smooth his edges a bit.

Haugh is bland. Mully yells too much. The producers talking was miserable.

Never liked Bernstein.

I liked Larry Holmes on the Bear postgame show on TV. I liked the casualness of his evening show in doses.

Parkins has always been annoying to me. Thought Spiegel was fine talking baseball pre Cub.

I have been listening to Dan McNeil's new podcasts which are Bear/NFL focused and generally 40 minutes or so.

I'm just too far gone at this point to listen to any Score  Way behind in my podcasts..

I like Mully and Haugh, but I disagree with them often. And I let them know it through the text line. Bernstein has mellowed quite a bit. He’s great at his job. He and Holmes make a great pairing. Parkins and Spiegel are probably my favorite show, but to be honest, I kind of enjoy them the most when they are just riffing and barely talking sports.

Dan McNeil is a dinosaur and barely listenable. I was actually glad when they canned him. Part of me likes him, but that guy had been mailing it in for years.

McNeil was only credible on football and hockey, and hockey talk makes me want to shoot myself in the face.

Yes, he was. Now he just talks about the Bear game and the other games around the league. There is some point spread talk and old sport talk radio stories sprinkled in. Like I said, it is usually only 40 to 50 minutes,  2x a week. Seems manageable for him to keep it interesting and moving at this point.
