    Wouldnt surprise me if he was,one of his co defendants was arrested for a prior ponzi sceme early this year.Sounds like everyone involved including the people he scammed were complete scumbags.

    If he was borrowing from the mob he could be used as a witness to take down others

    WFAN might have to do something drastic like that in order to retain ratings. That would be a fantastic combination I think, although I'm not sure if Boomer is combative enough to deal with an eclectic personality like that.

    Then again he did deal with Carton for a decade.

    I'd like to see Jerry Recco and Marc Malusis get a show together. They filled in together (I forget which time slot) a couple weeks ago and were really good together. They don't talk about nonsense though and are strictly sports guys which I guess works against them (not to me but from a ratings standpoint I guess).

    They should also pair John Jastremski and Evan Roberts together. Jastremski is the most underrated and underutilized talent on that station. I think Roberts would be less whiney if he broke away from doom & gloom Benigno.

    Oh...
    I'd think he paid them off. Regardless, this is not a deal he should take lightly.

    Love it. He also had Giants fans calling Francessa sporadically throughout the day looking for him to be starting over Eli.

    I'd didn't think Carton was going to get real time, maybe 3-5 years but after today's news that he sent false wire transfers, etc he's going away for a long time!

    Also goes to show you what a snowflake this guy is being wounded by a media personality. Just do your job moron, you're completely wasting a fantastic amount of natural ability
