Y’know, I knew it was a bad idea as soon as I hit “submit.” It wasn’t my cleverest work, either…

Comments deleted. Drake, take it somewhere else; not our style. Hometown folks, don’t feed the trolls.

Anyone who has listened to one of Francesa’a monologues knows the last thing he should complain about is someone or something going “too long”.

Of course with Francesa, if it’s not about the Yankees six pages is too long, let alone 600. And that’s with pictures.

I’ve lived in Queens my entire life, but Francesa’s Noo Yawk accent grates on even me. Combine that with his attitude towards lesser forms of life i.e. everyone not in pinstripes and he accounts for about 90% of the hatred generated by the rest of the country towards our fair city.

I stopped listening to Francesa forever during the Jets’ playoff run when he just insulted his listeners and, I feel, embarrassed himself. Not to mention his comment that the Red Sox made a mistake letting Johnny Damon walk. I think the Red Sox accomplished slightly more (one more playoff series win) than the Yankees during those four years at a much lower price. But the Yankees are always right, I guess.

the lead piece in the nytimes book review is pete hamill on the hirsch book.

Well, I copped “Vertical Swastika” from this site (anyone sensing a theme?) and pepper my day-to-day conversations with it, so that seems like a fair deal.

My health has improved remarkably since I limited my intake of Francesa to almost nothing. Kind of like trans fats.

I get that he had the author on, so that was the hook, but on a day when the USA was edging out Switzerland before Canada was to face Russia in Olympic hockey, Francesa spends an afternoon on Mantle vs. Mays. How current.
