Folks:

WFAN was the first all sports station in the US. So if other stations call themselves "The Fan", they are copying WFAN. For thge record, I am 99% sure that WIP in Philly was the second all-sports station in the US, but I'd have to go look that up to be sure and it isn't worth the effort.

Mike and the Mad Dog have been on The Fan since about 1991. All the "Mad Dogs" in the other cities on sports stations are copying Chris Russo. Remembver when WTEM had Kiley and The Coach? Given what that guy knew about sports, they could just as easily called him The Couch.

Now that Monday is here, I'm interested to see that all the bloviators from last week who were on MIke and the Mad Dog's case seem to want to let this thread slip into oblivion. Fact is folks, the Giants are a horrid team and the Skins lost to them in the Featured Game on Fox TV. Maybe those guys were lucky with their predictions, but they had it dead flat perfect!
