Advertisers go away when they take a hit in the bank. His ratings will always be high because there are alot of non Jet fans in NY and there are alot of Jet fans that listen to him kill the team because they want to here what stupid thing he's gonna say next. Arbitron ratings are flawed too because you don't knwo how many books are being filled out by Jet fans. They may all be Giant fans or Raider fans or even Dolphag fans. Like I said if Jet fans got together and collectively stoped supporting his advertisers and made it known why he will take a big time hit.
every time he talks to someone about the jets he rubs it in more. "ohh the jets thawt they wah good, they thawt they wah gonna beat everyone, the colts took it personal, they wanted to shut the jets up, and they did! blah blah"
I hear ya......I'm in that biz. And yes his Yankee/Giant fan base would hardly be dented. I sleep easier knowing Im not contributing to his audience. thing is, while I was still listening, it bothered the shit out of me that peope called in to counter what he was saying, (on behalf of other pissed Jet fans), and came off sounding like idiots 99.99% of the time
Leon says he had no knee or ankle damage, so all he has to do is let the bone heal up. Asking him if he ever thought it would be a career-threatening injury... he said it happened so quickly that he went to the hospital, had surgery, and the Raider game had just ended at the same time the surgery did, so it never occurred to him. Asking about Shonn Greene and the 2010 backfield... he said earlier in the year they were practicing to eventually use a 3-back system; said there can't be any selfishness which there isn't; said he can catch the ball better than the other 2 RBs, so it adds another dynamic; and he juct called Sanchez, 'Sanchize' haha awesome.
I mentioned way back, when this post count was at about page 84, why can't we just stop talking about Fatcessa. I wouldn't be surprised if this thread is still going into next season. If we ignore him, including all the masochistic Jet fans that call into his show, we may be able to make him go away.
one more thing about the Tank heres a typical interview with an analyst(use Aikman as an example) Mike: Hey Troy, what's up? Troy: I'm good Mike Mike: Did you think Favre should have ran that 3rd down instead of throwing across the middle which wound up being the game changing play? Troy: You know what, I did, from my perspective I saw th(cut off) Mike: I agree, Favre had the entire right sideline, if he runs he picks up 6 or 7 yards, even Favre said it himself, what a terrible mistake Troy: Yeah it was, and Favre should kno(cut off) Mike: Favre has had a habit of throwing big game interceptions like that, but he had a flawless regular season, so it was kinda surprsing Troy: The most surprising thing about it was(cut off) Mike: I thought what was most surprising was 7 INt's during the regular season, then to throw that, ughh Troy: I agr(cut off) Mike: The people who like the Saints, I have a warning, Revis took Wayne out of the game, the Saints can't do that, your thoughts? Troy: It's definitely gonna be tough, what they have to do is(cut off) Mike: If the Saints want any chance they have to get to Peyton with a conventional pass rush, if they don't, they're done. If they blitz all day they can't stop Peyton. Troy: Thats gonna be(cut off) Mike: It's gonna be near impossible for the Saints to do that? You agree Troy: Yeah I do. Mike: The Vikings have some of the best talent in the league, in fact, they might be the most talented Troy: They asbsoloutely do, when you talk about Jared All(cut off) Mike: They got Allen, the 2 williams, edwwwids, hutchinson on the line, petahsin, tremendous talent all around. Troy: Yep Mike: Do you think Favre will come back Troy: You know what, it's gonna be a tough dec(cut off) Mike: I think it's gonna come down to this, forget his feelings now, does he still have that itch, that desire to play again? Troy: I think he'll(cut off) Mike: I think he's gonna come back, but he has gotta show up in training camp and show more commitment Troy: You hope he does that but(cut off) Mike: We all know he's not going to do it, thats just Favre. So basically the interviews go like this. Mike asks a question to the analyst. They say a few words, he cuts them off and answers his own question. He should just do interviews with himself and ask the questions to his shadow.
Jay Glazer is sitting here defending Rex and Francesa says Rex is wrong, he has to get out of there. He just hates the Jets.
Does he realize he's on TV because when a caller is talking he reads the paper or scratches his fat dry skin while guzzling his DIET soda. And of course, he never lets a guest answer a question unless its his holiness Phil " after the fact" Simms. Drink up fat girl. http://blog.taragana.com/health/2009/11/01/too-much-diet-soda-can-damage-your-kidney-14744/
"You won 2 playoff games on the road as a rookie QB, Nobody has ever done that, I know nobody has done that in the past decade and probably nobody has ever done that.." Joe Flacco last year...beat Miami and Tennessee This guy knows everything about football...nobody watches more NFL then him...
Holy Cr*p, 2,800 something posts?! :lol: I won't even waste my breath, except to say that every time I flicked on the car radio, even after the Chargers win, he was talking about BASBEBALL. Baseball?! Typical. Fukk that fat a-hole and his Parcells ball-gargling on top of it.
As heard on TMKS this afternoon: Chris Russo on Greg Buttle "Yeah well he wasn't exactly Dick Butkis" Buttle on Russo "Yeah well he's not exactly Francessa" OUCH!
One is a fat idiot with a stat book, the other one is a 90 lb. weakling with a stat book. Yah, we can all appreciate art even if we don't make it, but c'mon. I had a post on here years ago how they spent every second of my airtime on how long I was a Jets season ticket holder instead of my Jets comments. I should dig that up when I'm feeling ambitious, but I know the original one isn't here due to board crashes. I'm waiting for Francesa to choke on his own phlegm on the air. That would float me.
