    Personally, I'm sad hearing about this news. You know I don't mind taking shots and vice versa when it's warranted. There is a right and a wrong time to be a prick, even in here. I don't understand exactly what you are looking to accomplish..


    ALL IM saying is they weren't that good
    they didn't know what they were talking about half of the time and their lack of knowledge about some sports was a joke .. period

    and once they put the shows on yes,, u could really tell the little bit they knew was being read off their computers

    The quality of their relations with callers deteriorated through the years but their interviews of people like cashman and joe torre and other managers were still good.

    I always found it funny that Mike would be talking with a caller while still doodling on the newspaper.

    Looks like dog will have an opportunity to say goodbye in a few minutes..660 am or wfan.com to listen..
    'I want to hurry home to you
    put on a slow, dumb show for you
    and crack you up
    so you can put a blue ribbon on my brain
    god I'm very, very frightening
    and I'll overdo it'

    The entire show is emotional so far..but to me, Mike never seemed very genuine, even right now as he speaks..I felt like Dog always let it all hang out, and I appreciated that..Dog will be missed..Mike will be so fucking boring that he'll probably put himself to sleep..

    I only like listening to Mike when the Yankees are doing shitty.

    As someone said, 'Mike and the Mad Dog have been the sport soundtrack of the city for nearly 20 years.' Wow, 2 decades man....what a run, but I guess Dog felt it was his time, so he did what he had to do....and not good riddance as someone had sad earlier, but thank you for your heart, passion, and all the memories............and best wishes to the Dog..

    I listened between 1 and 2 and it was kinda sad... Mike played the regular "Mike and the Mad Dog" intro jingle and even a tape of Chris' "HELLO EVERYBODY..." Russo was on the phone with him too at about 1:15... It was time to pack it in and it would seem Chris will get huge $$$... Can't blame him...

    that's a bummer as those guys were great together. Frankly I think they were pretty much the only sports talk worth listening too (maybe Jody McDonald also).

    i don't know, i kinda like listening to j.t. the brick and loonie.
