    At least when that happened, you might be watching, so you could just laugh. I have lost count of how many times I have had Sterling on the radio and he has launched into that idiotic, bombastic, "It is high, it is far. ..." thing, only to find out 8 seconds later that the ball was caught on the warning track.

    And then in top-8, Ripken lined out to left, Segui struck out, and Hulett grounded out to short.

    They had one 12 week book and they lost to Kay 4.4 to 4.2. The Sports Pope routinely beat Kay easily.

    Kay tops WFAN Afternoon Drive in winter ratings

    I would never work another day in my life if I didn’t have too, and it would take a lot less money than Francesca had for me to not want a daily gig.

    But then I like my wife and daughter.

    He's the one that always said something like "if you weren't invited to a Super Bowl party, you need a evaluate your life" after his show during the time of the Super Bowl right?

    Guess it takes one to know one.

    Singleton is annoying with his homerism to the point where he’s a dishonest commentator. He never says anything bad about the Yankees, to the point where his takes on things are laughably predictable.

    He talks about sports all day, but yeah, he doesn’t waste his time on dumb stuff.

    If he’s not the one tweeting, his social media person certainly knows how to replicate his tone.
