Joe beningo is the man. I root for the jets to lose so i can look forward to listening to the show. but he is not a giant hater. Evan on the other hand is.

The scheduling mavens who aren't Giant fans, just like every single employee of the Flagship Station of Giant Football. Is anyone aware of another NFL team where their flagship radio station doesn't employ a single fan of the team?

At least Chris Carlin isn't a Jet fan.
LOL, I don't think WFAN has any host that even root for the Giants

I look forward to the day when Mike is there b/c I really do appreciate listening to Mike talk football and I LOVE when he talks to Mara and TC. I guess this means Mike will not be at camp at any point?

I don't mind Joe and Evan but I'd rather they be in studio talking Mets deadline with Heyman.

They talked opening 10 mins baseball and have had andre williams, flowers and now collins on. They are yalking giants football. You guys really do complain about nothing.

Boomer and carton will be there next week and mike will be there the week after i believe. So you get 3 training camp shows, much more than what used to take place

The Mets thing doesn't matter, could have been Yankee fans. The point is that they are baseball fans, and it's the MLB Trade deadline. So they are going to belly ache about Carlos Gomez for 4 hours and juxtapose that vs. whatever the Mets do or don't do. I get it, NY is a baseball town. That's why scheduling them to be at Giants camp on the deadline is moronic.
Evan is taking it a little more serious than Joe  
Mason : 7/31/2015 1:59 pm : link
most of Joe's questions so far has been asking Flowers how about the U and when will they be back. Asking Landon Collins what happened against Ohio State and why did he leave early. And they both spent the time with Vereen talking about the Pats SB win and deflategate.

Because I find it comical that a NY sports radio station focuses on two teams every single day, especially on the official radio station of the Giants and Yankees?

The mets were on the fan for 20+ years before the yanks came on board, are people supposed to forget and dismiss that now that it's the yankees station? Joe and evan are very fair when it comes to praise and criticism. They couldn't praise the giants enough during the 2011 run and just before when they talking with rashad jennings benigni was blown away that eli wasn't on the nfl network top 100 player list, not that the list matters but it was more the fact that after winning 2 super bowls eli still gets no respect around the league. It's a NY sport station for christs sake, there are other teams to talk about besides the giants/yanks.

None of us are talking about praise/criticism. It's the airtime dedicated to each time. The Jets and Mets, despite being far less successful than their counterparts, get the strong majority of the airtime on BOTH sports radio stations. People are just commenting that it's a joke, and it is. That's all.

there's a lot more to talk about. Sports radio is all about getting riled up and having a talking point. The Mets and Jets provide those points in spades. The Yankees and Giants provide much less. It's that simple.
Joe and Even had about 12 different Giants on their show today.  
arcarsenal : 7/31/2015 6:57 pm : link
And interviewed all of them.

Today was the MLB trade deadline and the Mets made a pretty significant move. So.. they talked about it. If the Yankees made a move, it would have been discussed as well. They're in a different position and it wasn't as necessary. It is what it is.

I cannot for the life of me understand why people listen to a radio station for hours on end if they aren't interested in the content. It's 2015, go find a podcast or get over it.

Arc, I have no side in this argument, I don't listen to FAN. But with regard to your last sentence, obviously they listen for what they hope, and have reason to believe, the content will be. I don't listen to FAN because they rarely talk Giants so while I understand why they are talking METS, I also understand the disappointment of Giants fans.

There should have been no "disappointment" from Giants fans if they were listening today.

They interviewed: Vereen, Andre Williams, Rashad Jennings, Reuben Randle, Prince, Landon Collins, Richburg, Flowers, Hankins and Weatherford. I might even be forgetting a couple. There were Giants players on the radio all day long.

They talked Mets between the interviews because today was the MLB trade deadline and there were tons of rumors and it was a crazy news day for baseball.

I just don't see the reason for all the complaining. They can't talk Giants for 7 hours straight. The majority of the show today was Giants, though. I don't even recall them spending 2 minutes on the Jets outside of calling Sheldon Richardson an idiot.

Dave in Hoboken : 7/31/2015 8:39 pm : link
but what about every other day? It's still alot more talk about teams that haven't been good (trying to be nice here and not trolling) over teams that have been good. I just don't get it. And while I do listen sometimes, I don't nearly as much anymore. And how do I know that it's still going on? Simple. There's a thread about it on here (or other sites) practically every other week. That, and it's not surprising. It's not a big deal. It's more intriguing to me than anything else.

Exactly. Cruz and weatherford actually were on together. Weatherford was on and i think cruz kinda just walked over and went on the air with them. It was good radio, talked about a bunch of different shit.

More stories come out of teams in turmoil.

There's not much to talk about with the Yankees. They're in first place by a pretty comfortable margin, they're winning games, they didn't need to really do anything at the deadline. There's just nothing to talk about beyond recapping their game from the night before and that doesn't take you far.

Unfortunately for me and the other Met fans, the Mets produce a lot of headlines because of all the bizarre things that go on. There's just more to talk about.

During football season, when there's Jets overload, I just switch the station or listen to music. It is what it is. It's not like any of these guys provide a whole lot of in depth analysis anyway. It's mostly reactionary entertainment more than a good source of information.

Yep. Like i said earlier, i've found joe and evan to be very fair with the giants. Rip them when they play like garbage and praise them like when we went on the 2011 run. Just last week joe said he thinks we could have a top 3 offense if everything falls right and i happen to agree with him. If our o-line can gel and cruz and beckham are healthy we can have a lethal offense.

but couldn't, had to finish pruning a tree in front of our town's Library (lol, but true).

I get what MattinSGS is saying, a valid point; so WFAN blew the timing, but I still would have listened for any nuggets.

BUT, and the reason for this post is, that you guys lumping Joe and Evan together or really, seriously wrong: Joe Beningo is in a class of stupidity and unlistenability all his own. Roberts is a smart guy and often makes good points, has good analysis. His problem is that he's paired with JB (and the first post after the OP was beautiful), which means, broadly speaking, he's got a ventriloquist's dummy on his knee.
