 Love him or hate him Francesa is a legend in the business.

 This is a great oral history of WFAN that Grantland published a while back.  Really good read.  I recommend it.

We're talking weight wise, right?

Not religious, but Minko has a spot reserved in heaven, working for this p...k.

You could not be more on the money. Heard Fatso talking to Minko short time ago when it was the day before Minko's birthday and he spoke AT Minko like he was some unpaid newbie at the station who was trying to break into radio. It made me cringe.
You gotta love Muschnick's column which always seems to have a slam story on this idiot.
I am sure the story has been told before but if true that he pledged money to the school in his mother's memory and then never made good on the pledge, that says it all.

francesa lost credibility with me when he made a promise about that scholarship that never came into existence and arguing for st. john's to keep norm roberts.  everytime i hear him talk about st. john's its funny because i know for fact he hasn't physically attended a  st john's game in a long time.

Maybe he will take the two for one deal so he can watch the game in comfort.

He used to be good- long time ago- he tried then. Guy hasn't tried in a long time ago. He is an expert on everything. He doesnt even watch sports.

Craig Carton would be brutal at drivetime. He is brutal now in the morning with his poor man's Howard Stern routine. Smacking his lips and eating food into the microphone, his giggity-giggity routine. Inability to put together a sentence above a fourth grade level. Giving his kids stupid ass mobster names...Lucky, Sonny....

Boomer is great, he and anyone else, practically anyone else, would be a great show. Carton is Sid Rosenberg without the crack binges in cheap motels. Not saying I would want Mike Greenburg, but Mike Golic and Boomer together would be great.

I miss Opie and Anthony.  Different genre of radio and stole most of Stern's older routine, but they were hysterical.

I wonder what it would take for him to compliment St. John's...I am not sure if beating Cuse would do it...

He feels the same way about St.John's that the rest of NYC does. He doesn't care.

Now saying the Yankee team is better on paper than Blue Jays. Said the Blue Jays are unproven and had to begrudgingly admit Jose Reyes is an All Star.
