MONDAY

MIKE'D UP FRANCESA ON THE FAN
Mike came out swinging this morning about the new Yankee Stadium. Mike believes that something must be done on this road trip. Maybe they can put some gaffer's tape on the openings in the stadium to slow down the wind. Maybe they can rope of the Jeffrey Maier seating section to move back the wall. In any case, this is all a smoke screen for Mike. He's making a big fuss about this to deflect any criticism of Wang and the Yankee bullpen. He downplayed Wang's ineffectiveness and said the Yankee should 'come up with an injury' so they can DL him. "No one checks these things," he told us in making a case for summoning a strained muscle. Nice, Mike. Let's encourage cheating. Besides Maier and the Swipe, is that really the Yankee way.

MAD DOG UNLEASHED
I expected Dog to come out and spend a lot of time on the offensive propensities of the new Yankee Stadium. Instead, Dog is doing the NBA today. Snore. He said that he was going to 'catch us up' on Citi Field later in the show because that's where he was this Saturday. Aren't you a little late to the party Chris? I know they banned your show from there, but couldn't you have made an earlier trip? The highlight so far was when some guy asked for his analysis of the Rangers/Capitals series. It ceases to amaze me that over the years, even on the Fan, people would call up to ask hockey questions of both Chris and Mike. Are you paying attention people? That's not their bag, baby.

So the wind only blows out for the 2 and 7 Indians.

Or else the score would have been 22-20

Heard Mike for about 5 minutes today. I couldn't tell if he was knocking D Wright or defending him. It was odd.

someone called in and called mike "joe." mike just flips his shit and says something like "im not taking that call, get out of here."

how come he doesnt do the same thing when pro players like putz calls him the pope?

I was Doc Gooden wall signature caller. I got an IS ANYBODY ALIVE OUT THERE from him...

Ryan T. said...

KBilly: I'm starting to recognize your calls without you telling us you're calling.

IS ANYBODY ALIIIIVE OUT THERE TONIGHT

By the way, he pretty much called you a liar today.

Why won't he give you a seat in the doghouse?

Somebody also said "you sound taller on the phone" or something like that yesterday...obviously trying to make a joke...Mike had no idea, has no clue sometimes...

Ryan T. he gave me a seat the other day, but I refused...Why do I want to talk to Bogish?
Today, I said that Curry was the best prospect in the NFL Draft and Dog said I didn't know what I was talking about.
10 mins later, a guy from NC called in and said I was correct.
Dog can't believe that an early 30s single guy can watch a few college football games. Just because he has like 3 kids, I don't know jack shit.

KBilly said...

And yes, I ask Dog if anyone is alive out there...That cracks me up. I can't yell in the office, so I make him do it.
