  • They're Gone a Decade, but Vince Lloyd's, Red Mottlow's Voices Remind of Eternal Friendships
    They’re gone a decade, but Vince Lloyd’s, Red Mottlow’s voices remind of eternal friendships By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Tuesday, February 19, 2013 Both great men are gone nearly 10 years. But I still consider them my friends, present tense, because I still hear their distinctive voices loud and clear, whether in memories of being on the air, offering wise counsel or only skimming the top of their encyclopedia of stories and ex- periences. I’ve got to keep their memory alive, because gen- erations who never heard them or knew them de- serve the benefit of their output as men and all- time sportscasters. Vince Lloyd and Red Mottlow had great influence on me growing up. As I got to know them closely as their senior-citizen days ap- proached and progressed, my only regret – a big Red Mottlow pounding away at his type- one -- is not getting more decades with them in writer with some of his broadcast corporeal form. awards on the wall behind him. Longtime baseball announcer Lloyd should be a recipient of the Ford C. Frick Award, honoring a great voice of the game. Pioneering radio sports reporter Mottlow should have gotten his shot on the air at WGN. Subtracting these goals doesn’t take a shred away from their lifetime achievements. There was Lloyd’s rich baritone, hardly cracking when he bellowed “Holy Mackeral!” for a Cubs homer, intersecting with Mottlow’s staccato, rapid-fire “Red Mottlow, WCFL Sports” on mid-20th Century 50,000-watt Chicago-originated frequencies. There were kind, encouraging words amid the most political of businesses – sports media -- where negativity and a childish caste system still rule.

  • Newsreel Fest Proves Baseball History Sells
    Newsreel fest proves baseball history sells By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Tuesday, June 17th, 2014 Teshh-ion pleeese (with credit to Pat Pieper): Major League Baseball, in- dividual teams in Chicago and else- where, sports-talk radio stations and print and on-line outlets. Here’s the correct lineup for today: Visual baseball nostalgia sells. That’s the conclusion drawn from a pleasant Friday night at the Block Museum’s Pick-Laudati Auditorium on Northwestern University’s Evans- ton campus. Dave Filipi, director of film/video at the Wexner Center for the Arts at Ohio State University, made his annual pilgrimage to show vintage baseball newsreel footage, Dave Filipi (right) at Northwestern's Block Museum audi- highlighted by rare films related to torium just before he introduced his annual baseball the 1919 Black Sox World Series. newsreel program. Block Museum advised fans to come early to the free program to claim a seat. That counsel was heeded for the 7:30 p.m. start time. By the time Filipi screened the first clip — a 1933 spring training montage that had Cubs manager Charlie Grimm giving a short, low-octane pep talk to his defending NL champs — only a handful of scattered single seats remained. The audience was packed with fans like Evanston’s Ed Zulkey, who grew up within walk- ing distance of old Comiskey Park in Bridgeport. Zulkey insists you could show him a 1959 Sox schedule and he can tell you from memory whether the South Siders won or lost each game. We’ve written and broadcast for 25 years about how relatively little care has been taken of baseball’s video, film and audio history, especially from the 1960s through the 1980s.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE LEGENDARY WGN SPORTS PRODUCER JACK ROSENBERG TO BE RECOGNIZED WITH HONORARY STREET NAME Southeast corner of E. Illinois Street and Cityfront Plaza Drive named “Jack Rosenberg Way”; dedication on Wednesday, August 18 at 10:30 a.m. CHICAGO (August 5, 2021) – Legendary WGN sports producer Jack “Rosey” Rosenberg will be recognized by the City of Chicago with an honorary street sign. The southeast corner of E. Illinois Street and Cityfront Plaza Drive will double as “Jack Rosenberg Way.” The dedication will take place on Wednesday, August 18 at 10:30am. 42nd Ward Alderman Brendan Reilly, who sponsored the sign, is scheduled to read the resolution. “Jack was very caring,” said Bob Sirott, who hosts 5am to 9am weekday mornings on WGN Radio and counted Rosenberg as a friend, mentor, and peer. “The first thing he’d always ask was, ‘Everything all right with you and your family?’ Now we have a permanent memorial that will always remind us of a great journalist and an even greater person.” Rosenberg’s career at WGN began in 1954 where he was a producer, news writer, and sports editor and worked with celebrated sports voices including Jack Brickhouse, Harry Caray, Vince Lloyd, Lou Boudreau, and others. Rosey was a pioneer in modern sports production and broadcasting and is credited with its development. While Rosey himself was rarely heard on-air, the sound of his typewriter clacking in the background was unmistakable. Jack Rosenberg died December 26, 2020 at the age of 94. ### WGN RADIO For nearly 100 years, WGN Radio AM 720, a Nexstar Inc.

  • Brickhouse Was Chicago's Sole Broadcast Conduit to Bears, Bulls In
    Irv Kupcinet (left) and Jack Brickhouse at Soldier Field in the early 1970s. They were the Bears radio team for 24 seasons from 1953 to 1976. Brickhouse was Chicago’s sole broadcast conduit to Bears, Bulls in a different era By George Castle, CBM Historian The man for all sports seasons throughout his storied career, Jack Brickhouse proved to be the only man for chunks of Bears and Bulls seasons in the 1950s and 1960s. In an era when TV added telltale vision to radio’s sound, Brickhouse was the sole broad- cast conduit for pro football and basketball fans within signal range of the Chicago mar- ket. Radically different NFL rules, unthinkable today in sports broadcast rights’ mega-billion -dollar world, restricted video exposure of the Bears in Chicago during TV’s first full decade of widespread operation. Meanwhile, in an era where the NBA was just removed from semi-barnstorming status, the Bulls were almost out of sight and out of mind to most Chicago media when they went on the road. Brickhouse then had a monopoly on the Chicago audience. He was the only Chicago broadcast voice conveying play by play of Bears games on WGN Radio for the first seven seasons of his famed pairing with Irv Kupcinet starting in 1953. Meanwhile, he often was the sole Chicago media person on duty for half the Bulls road games from 1966 to 1970 as the team’s first TV broadcaster on WGN. Interestingly, Brickhouse generated frequent comic moments on Bears broadcasts. No. 1 was his byplay with the syntax-challenged, West Side accent of Chicago Sun-Times gos- sip-monger Kup.
