Just a week after yelling at CC Sabathia to "get lost" and informing everyone that the hefty lefty was not in Johan Santana's zip code in terms of talent, today Mike Francesa will be interviewing CC. So...how will Mike handle this? Will he try to form a bond over their similarity in terms of weight? Will he call Sabathia out for his embarrassing the Yankees? Will he just brush it all off and joke around with CC like they are old buddies? Will he marvel at CC's performance down the stretch last season? Will he admit to CC that he was "hoping" that the Yanks didn't sign him? What will Mikey do? Tune in and find out...
P.S. Mike also announced that Mark Bavaro's appearance on the show will sort of mark the end of this Legends experiment. So much for two weeks of Legends shows. Nice gimmick Mikey.

Took the first opportunity to say.... "Is he Johan Santana, no he is not." He is hammering home to us that he is right more and more these days. I think he knows that a lot of us feel he is too often NOT right
There is no turning back - this blog has bottomed out. Don't blame the show for not having a new co-host. Don't blame it on the show being crappy. This blog has just simply lost it. I guess it was fun while it lasted.
Anon...it was indeed a nice ride...but I am glad to see that you still check it on a daily basis..keep the dream alive.
Anon....Please post a link to your Francesa blog. I'd love to check it out.
I was surprised Mike didn't confront Sabathia about how he is going to live year-round in NY, meanwhile didn't he just BUILD a house in Cali? Actually, it doesn't surprise me. Just Mike kissing ass. And by the way, I know Sabathia is a heavy guy, but he looked today like he dropped quite a bit of weight since the postseason.
Listening to the Cashman interview now online, Mike is really backing off. He was ready to throw Cashman off a bridge for going after Sabathia for so long, now with him on Mike did nothing to confront Cashman, even in a nice way, for this idea (Mike's idea, and I'm not sure how many, if any, people shared it) that the Yankees were looking pathetic and desperate.
at least the baseball talk gave us a break from Fatso saying that the Jets "control their own destiny". Not only is that an overused phrase - it makes no sense. By definition, destiny is something over which you have no control
