I didn't see this discussed and missed this myself. I found out on Boomer and Gio.
WFAN just guaranteed I will not listen at all, not even for 1 second, of at least 3 Yankee games. It's a terrible decision for many reasons. One, he's an asshole who has been rude and disrespectful to Suzyn many, times over. Two, he is a no talent hack who is essentially a Stern wannabee in sports. Three, he isn't a play by play guy. Four, I doubt he actually knows the team well enough, nor will he do the work to do a good job. Five, just fuck no.
Carton? Ugh. - (

Except he clearly does bring in ratings, which is why he keeps getting jobs.

who screwed over their listeners to try to pay his debts. How do they even associate themselves with him still? It's not like he brings in ratings.

He-he-he... was a former Mets fan.
As of last week Carton and Waldman hadn’t discussed it directly but Waldman supposedly had agreed.

And having said that, I have absolutely no idea who in Yankee/WFAN land thought that this would make a shred of good sense.
I like Suzyn. I think she's been less of a homer in recent years. You can tell she's also frustrated as hell by the way this team plays. She's been very critical at times.
Seriously, at this point why pretend to be classy? Just let the players grow beards FFS.
