NFT: Howard Stern on Mike & Mike

Samiam : 5/23/2017 11:00 am
Robin is doing the news and talking about how the 2 Mikes hate each other and have for years and that it's common knowledge and out in the open. Dont particularly care for the show (except its better than Carton) but I never knew about this. is it common knowledge they hate each other?
They don't show it at all if they do  
Mike in Long Beach : 5/23/2017 11:02 am : link
but it wouldn't surprise me. One is a condescending little yenta and the other is a football player who probably doesn't want to be condescended on national radio (and television).

Also, if you have to spend 4 hours a day with anyone you'll eventually hate them.

Greenberg never told Golic he was looking for another job or was leaving. They would not talk to each other except when working and walk past each other and not acknowledge the other one.
Greenberg  
TyreeHelmet : 5/23/2017 11:46 am : link
is reportedly making 6.5 million a year on his new deal. I was shocked to heart. Said to be signifcantly higher than Golic due to it being a tv show. I think thats where the beef is coming from.

I actually think Trey Wingo and Golic will be good in the morning. Greenie brings nothing to the table.

the latest story is they are upset with each other  
LG in NYC : 5/23/2017 11:50 am : link
(or Golic is upset with Greeney) due to the new job Greeney is taking and the fact that he didn't tell Golic. Supposedly Golic heard about it in a news story.

I do believe they have "hated each other for years"... I believe their families are friendly and have been so if anything, this is a recent issue and built off of professional differences.

it's a shame. I like the show generally and think Greeney's show will probably fail, while the Wingo/Golic morning show will continue on without a hitch (and I really like Golic Jr).
Giving Greenberg a big fat contract to be a lqme male

Oprah wannabe is just the type of stupid move ESPN continues to make. They don't get it. It's fucking supposed to be about sports. Other than games that channel has not existed for me for years. W our phones who needs sports center when it's annoying. Idiots yelling at each other in slightly different formats.

Other than 30 for 30 which I don't watch much but is well done and games they do nothing well.
Greenberg at $6.5 million is a Joke  
Bernie : 5/23/2017 12:01 pm : link
if true, what does he bring to the table to warrant that? Their shtick is the "former pro athlete" + the "scrawny, self deprecating, wannabe athlete". I don't get it.
based on his TV persona

I'm not sure how every single living person doesn't hate Mike Greenberg (Greenberg? Is that right?) whatever his name is he's very hateable.

Golic seems like a regular dude, ex-athlete, Greenberg seems like a douche bag.
Golic needs Greenberg  
Rory : 5/23/2017 12:05 pm : link
for that metro VS manly theme they always go for.

The thing is Greenberg has a recognizable voice and could have his own show in any area of TV not just sports.

Golic doesn't have that and is a easily forgettable radio personality
SC6  
TyreeHelmet : 5/23/2017 12:07 pm : link
If Greenberg is making 6.5 million a year, imagine what Hill and Smith are making for putting out SC6?

Also, check out what was on sportscenter at 6 last night. See below link. I don't care where you fall on the political spectrum, who tunes to espn for this type of coverage?

I don't they have hated each other for years  
ZogZerg : 5/23/2017 12:13 pm : link
I think this all started because Greeny wasn't man enough to give Golic a heads up and he found out about this on the news. That was within the last year or so.

I use to enjoy that show, but stopped listening to is a few years back. I guess mainly because I change my commute schedule. These guys made a great team for a long time.

Why does a "sports" show have Milli Vanilli talking about a shooting?
Francesa & Russo didn't like each other  
SFGFNCGiantsFan : 5/23/2017 12:15 pm : link
at times either.

I think Golic is just pissed over how Greenberg left.

With F&R that was part of the entertainment. When one used to go on vacation, the one left behind would insist on having the jingle rewritten.
Fucking pathetic  
Route 9 : 5/23/2017 1:17 pm : link
Reading and hearing the name "Greenie" out loud is one of the biggest cringeworthy things ever. I always thought Golic was an annoying cunt as well. They both suck monster balls.
Greenie brings absolutely nothing to a sports  
GuzzaBlue : 5/23/2017 2:23 pm : link
show. He seems to have limited sports knowledge for a guy that has been around the industry for quite sometime. His femininity is quite annoying as well and just doesn't work on a sports show. And he's also a brown-noser. Plus his jokes aren't very funny. At least Han and Humpty have solid humor at times. Greenie and his caprese salid jokes are old and were never really funny to begin with.

Golic isn't the best, but better than Greenie.

I didn't know racially charged shootings was a sport. When is it going to be added to the Olympics?
God Robin is sooo bad at reading the news

First she said they worked at Fox then went on to claim they have been feuding since 2013, which is not true. She annoys the shit out of me.
