Mike Francesa Fell Asleep Discussing the AL East
The normally competitive Boston Red Sox are currently dwelling in the cellar of the AL East while the sizzle-deficient Orioles are inexplicably tied with the Yankees for first place, so perhaps that’s why WFAN’s Mike Francesa dozed off Tuesday afternoon while discussing the state of the division? It would make sense, as Francesa is well known for having difficulty acknowledging surprise teams “who ain’t been ‘dere beefaw.”
Either that, or the always exciting first weekend of NFL action — which no doubt inspired multiple Truffle Shuffles from the beefy broadcaster — caught up with him at an awfully inconvenient time.
Whatever it was that caused the impromptu nap, Mikey’s “just received the shocker” face upon waking up was priceless.

He looked like Scott Bakula at the beginning of every Quantum Leap.

Should Sweeny be offended or appreciative I now know who he is.

anyone see that rizzo collision? it wasn;t the 1B that hurt him, it was him landing awkwardly on the leg that hit first base, then the strange mid-air dance the awkward step and attempt at avoidance caused

I admit I am a big Francesa fan. The guy does five and a hours every day, plus a show on Sunday mornings during football season. It’s not easy, particularly when he has to listen to an endless parade of inane trade proposals from folks like Val in Brooklyn and Mike from Montclair.

I’m thrilled the Lions decided on passing on Janoris Jenkins in the 1st and/or not selecting a corner in the 2nd round. Reiff ain’t starting and Ryan Broyles sat out last game because Stefan Logan and some other jerk off were better fits for the 1st game according to Schwartz.

I am as well until he decides to take whole summers off to hang with Parcells on the Jersey Shore. @WFANTRADES is fairly amusing to follow on Twitter as is @MikeFrancesaNY.

YARDWORK!!

I would say that the Yankees this year are extremely sizzle-deficient. They haven’t been interesting in years.

That’s not very nice to hear from your boss.

Except of course for the fact that they are The Yankees.
