So, WFAN and Mike Francesa have let Chris MadDog Russo out of the pound to join SIRIUS Satelite Radio.
Anyone who cares to can take a look at several videos here where Francesa's disdain for Russo was quite evident. I'd be willing to bet that the only reason Dog was let out of his contract was because Mike said so with a thumbs up. Anyone watching the Mike Francesa show the past few days already knows - oh boy, this is a mistake.
I posted a comment in jest on Neil 'the' Best's Watchdog Blog where I suggested that Sid Rosenberg and I would become part of the MF's show. And this became an article in Sunday's Newsday...
Well, I take that back. I hear some singing that Sid the kid would be perfect at...SIRIUS. He already has done some work with Howard Stern so he has SERIOUS connections. Both he and Russo left WFAN. SIRIUS has lined up MadDog right versus MF so why not Rosenberg v. Carton? Carton, talking about 'bad' radio hosts said, "Yeah, he's working in Florida now."
Super Sid sliced back on his radio show with a dagger at Carton: "a cheap imitation of me."
Wouldn't it be perfect to a) Put Sid on right before MadDog v. Boomer and Carton? b) put Sid on with Russo? Either way it'd be a one two combination. Miami is fine with Chad Pennington but don't you think Rosenberg is too big a personality NOT to be up in NYC with Brett Favre here now? Rosenberg co-hosted the NFL Today pre-game show heard nationally on Westwood One for 3 seasons.
It's my opinion that it is time for Sid to sail on back to New York. To SIRIUS. If they think Russo is going to sell some SIRIUS/XM units - think about adding Russo & Rosenberg. Oh, and Mantz....
An email to Andrew Fitzpatrick Sports Media Relations SIRIUS 212-901-6693 afitzpatrick@siriusradio.com has not been answered. If you'd like Sid on SIRIUS - Drop him a note.
