Mike'd Up: The Mike Francesa Show

He actually sounds angrier now that the main rant is over. The hot air is gone - now it's just pure rage and bile.
Fat Mike, I love you.

I wish I felt as good about the Sox as he does.
But honestly, this really is as much fun to watch as the game.

HE GAVE UP 4 RUNS IN THE FIRST INNING!!!!!!! LET'S PUMP THE FISTS!!!!!! LET'S LOSE THE GAME BUT PUMP THE FISTS!!!!!!!!
I really gotta give Fatso props for ripping Joba because any non-Yankee fan that watched Joba pump his fists while losing 4-3 would be laughing themselves silly and saying "what is he doing?" Mike's take is right on here. Gotta give him credit.
Can somebody that has access to Mad Dog radio find out what his take is on Joba's antics (if any) and post his comments? Thanks.
I almost never get to listen to Mike and this really is better than the game.
"Oki cost $1mill he's been invaluable....Igawa cost $40mill and he can't pitch in the majors. That's it in a nutshell."

He's obviously not seen us except for the Yankee games.
Varitek gets all the big hits with the bases loaded.
Nick Green makes all the big plays (thankfully Slugo was stapled to the bench)
Beckett makes all the big pitches.
Okajima is a great reliever.

"the Red Sox's only problem is that they don't get to play the Yankees everyday. They'd RUN to the ballpark to play them right now."
I don't even want to run out to get lunch while Mike is going. Maybe I can run out at the 2:00 break.
" They have to get bodies in those seats...the park looks ridiculous....I dont care of they get people in off the streets to fill those seats"
I think Dog has the day off.
Not sure if this is ok, but here is an mp3 of today's opening rant:

Sterling talking in the 7th inning about how "unbelievable" Joba was without ever mentioning the score
He followed that gem with "Can you imagine if Joba pitched well for 9 innings? They would have to sedate them (Kay/Cone/Singleton)!"
"Joba was pumping his fist after 5 and 2/3rds innings. What would he do if he pitched a perfect game? You'd have to sedate him."
EDIT: Beaten to it, but I think he was talking about Joba, not the YEStards.

If that's going to be his reaction after 5 2/3 of losing ball you'd have to sedate him if he pitched an actual perfect game.
Edit: beat me to it.
Yankees announced their attendance as 46,000 last night.

"Joba was basically showing you that his personal quest of having good stuff is more important than winning the game. He triumphantly leaves the game to let someone else do the winning for him."
"Folks if you're just joining us Joba *mumble mumble mumble* and then he struck out 12 of the next 14 he faced!"
Joined late...has Francesa talked about the absurd strike zone Joba got as another reason not to get too excited?
Sarcastic Mike is about as good as angry Mike. The first 90 minutes belong in the Radio Hall of Fame.
Quality is shite, but someone just posted Mike doing his Joba fist pump impression:

Listening to Kay's radio show, and he's continuing with the Joba adoration.
Long term ramifications, great performance, yadda yadda yadda...
What a knob.

I'm not joking he just said this about not putting Joba in the bullpen:
"If you have a hole, or a scratch on yr wall in the garage, you aren't going to use the expensive oil paint from Picasso's palette.
You are going to use the cheapest paint you can possibly find."
