WFAN's Got a Little Inside Fight a Brewin

Mike Francessa is still searching for a partner after Chris Russo bolted for the big bucks, so over the course of the next few days he's aligned some of the other WFAN personalities to work an afternoon shift with him. He's bring on Ed Coleman for a few days, Chris Carlin for a few days, Joe Beningo for a few days, etc.

Chris Carton, WFAN Co-Host of the morning drive shift with Boomer Esiason, decided that it was a good time to poke fun at this rotational shift. Carton joked around about who would be next with Carlin and played the sound bite of essentially every single WFAN personality. He then said something along the lines of anyone with a pulse is co-hosting with Mike.

This of course lead to Big Mike getting pissed off at Carton, because he has no funny bone. Francessa went on to play the clip while making comments over the tape. Here's just a few of the humorous quotes Francessa threw out there:

"If He Wants a War Bring it On, It Won't Be a Long One"
"I could get rid of him in 5 minutes."
"He walks around here and he can't kiss up to me enough."

He says other things about how low Carton's salary is, how his afternoon drive show has been number 1 forever (we know you say it daily), how he's been accused of not cross promoting, how Carton likes to insult other people, etc. Essentially Francessa was obviously pissed, obviously does not like Carton nor anyone insulting his program (cause it's the greatest of all-time) and insinuated that he has so much power at WFAN that he can get anybody fired with a wave of his fat fingers.

And of course Francessa returned from the break saying it's all in fun. A little cross promotion. And that they'll get it together and they'll get funny soon. And then he said "I really love those guys." Ha, ya that's completely believable.

Lou Holtz is the Homer / Annoyingly Delusional

As my buddy Joe and I always joke, if Notre Dame was suiting up against an all Jesus team, aka a team made up of 55 Sons of God, Lou Holtz would probably still pick Notre Dame to win by a touchdown. So of course this weekend when I'm watching Sportscenter and they have him and fellow old man Corso making predictions, Lou picks ND to beat Michigan. Not that big of a deal, Michigan is a big question mark this year, but of course than Lou says that Notre Dame will win 11 games this year. This is the same Notre Dame that lost to a service academy last year. And just when you thought the douchy homerism was going to end ESPN asks which BCS school is going to be the biggest surprise team in the country. Any guesses to whom it was? I'll give you a clue it was another team he coached. If you guessed South Carolina you would be a winner. Next up on Lou's prediction watch, the Jets win the Superbowl, NC St. wins the ACC, Arkansas dominates the SEC West, Minnesota wins the Big

Ranking the New York Jets Historical Helmets

There's no way you can't go with the Helmet they won the Super Bowl in. You just can't. Next, I really don't understand why they don't where the helmet with the Jet as their throwback uniforms. That helmet is awesome. Then I'm going with the Helmets from the 80s because it's the classic feel and the white face mask is 10 times better than the black one. And the rankings continue until you get to... The Titans Helmet. I hate everything about those Titan uniforms. The Helmets are boring and the colors are GOD awful. Navy blue and Mustard? What the hell is that. Disgusting. If they wore those unis when I was a kid I'd probably be a Giant fan, and be much happier with my life in football.
