Kay took a big swing at the Pope of sports radio.

Michael Kay unloads on "Fatso" Francesa
- Thread starter MuzzyField
- Start date
I'm surprised you didn't know that. I thought it was a pretty big story when they got married and he refers to her often during games. How he landed her I'll never understand. Maybe she hates condiments too.
about 8:00 in: “I could point, chapter and verse, times that you laid down for people that you’re friends with, with other teams, so don’t tell me that this is state-run radio."
Those were some pretty good shots, but are TV ratings for radio shows important? He's behind in the ratings. He should continue needling Tank.

Last ratings book I saw posted, FF was number one in the radio market and Kay was number seven. Kay should never bring ratings into any rant.
As much as I hate Francesa, I have this odd urge to come to his defense when a bigger douchebag, like Kay, takes shots at him. Is it because I lived in NY for seven years and listened to Mike and the Mad Dog for a long time? I don't know...but I feel dirty for feeling this way.

I just listened to it and towards the end Kay says he doesn't blame ARod for lying. Then who does he think should be blamed for ARod's lies?

Oh I'm with you 100%. We harp on the stuff FF says and get on his case for the bloviating because he really is capable of greatness in his job and because his show is--annoying or not--really, really fun to listen to. Michael Kay has done exactly jack shit in the radio business. When he broadcasts one interesting thought then maybe it'll be less comical when he takes a run at Francesa.
God I forgot about that Diet Coke gag. What an unfunny butthole that guy is.
Re ratings, FF is still way ahead but Kay's show just earned #5 in the market for M 25-54 in the time period, which is a big deal for him.
Because it's important that Kay's wife isn't thaaaaaat hot, here's another pic of her a little less dolled up. Attractive woman and all, but not low-end of model range, as the earlier picture suggests.

I see your point, but feel compelled to add that on the scale of woman that Michael Kay should be able to sleep with, well ... she's simply not on that scale.
I should add that I don't understand why anyone feels they need to come to the defense of either of these two losers. In fact, this is the only post that appears to correctly size up the situation.

The big picture here is that the re-insertion of A-Rod into the Yankee franchise is causing the NY media to begin to devour itself. He really is the gift that keeps on giving.
I'n the first photo, I didn't notice Jodi had a face. I may need to "push up" my annual eye exam.
While his ratings have remained strong without Dog, without him, the show too often has the energy level of Carlton "Your Doorman" on a loop.
This is so true and I'm planning on enjoying every second of this freak show. I just hope FF can stay awake.Average Reds said:

I think you're making an assumption about their relationship that isn't necessarily true here.

Yeah he said both. Kay is maybe a hair smarter and more self-aware than Mike.
As for Jodi, she was pretty hot when she was younger. I mean she's 50 years old now and has been married to Kay for four years, and who wouldn't let themselves go after having to look at that specimen every day for four years.
