: Don't get too excited about Kerry Sayers joining 670 The SCORE full time just yet. The CBS Radio-owned sports talker & flagship of the Chicago White Sox Radio Network has been shorthanded all week, not just with update anchors but with hosts as well with Mike Mulligan, Brian Hanley, Dan McNeil & Dan Bernstein all off the very same week. I don't think we'll ever really know why Comcast SportsNet decided not to renew Kerry's contract, let alone why other owned & operated stations in this market haven't exactly given her a call about joining their team. I realize we are still very much in a recession, but folks, I'd rather watch Kerry do 3 minutes or so of sports than seeing bumbling, stumbling Mike Adamle & Daryl Hawks on NBC5, for examples, any day of the week! It's not just eye candy, but the likes of Kerry, CSN's Sarah Kustok & Gail Fischer, NBC5's Paula Faris & Peggy Kusinski, CBS2's Megan Mawicke & FOX32's Jill Carlson should be looked at on whether they know their sports as well as their male counterparts. I think they do, and it's very unfortunate that Kerry hasn't received more interest since CSN decided to let her go. Besides, with the exceptions of national ESPN Radio "SportsCenter" anchors Amy Laurence & Christine Leasy, there are NO FEMALES on either all-sports station in Chicago.
Hey Fish, i'd like to see Kerry Sayers join ESPN one of these days maybe when say, Linda Cohn retires. How would you like to see that happen?
