Hey Chicago sports talk radio fans, Mike North is back. At least through the Bears season.
The former WSCR-AM 670 star will host a Bears/NFL preview show on Sundays from 10 a.m.-noon on WIND-AM 560.
“Not a day goes by where somebody doesn’t say, ‘We miss hearing you,’ ” North said. “This is an opportunity to talk Bears and the NFL for 17 weeks. We’ll have some fun.”
North currently hosts Saturday and Sunday night shows for Fox Sports Radio. He also writes a column for the Daily Herald.
The WIND show is being sponsored by PlaySportsLive.com, a new sports website that gives users the opportunity to create their own interactive football teams to play against others.
North will have a supporting cast for the show. “I’m not ready to say who yet,” he said.
“It’s not going to be your daddy’s pregame show,” North said. “It’s going to be a little bit irreverent.”
I guess the dumbing down of America continues…speaking of dumbing down, “dat’s right dere Mark!” Here’s Mike North! Brought to you by the usual assortment of gambling sites and gentlemen’s clubs. What any G.M. sees in that guy is totally beyond me.
