Due to the outrageous misinformation and outright lies that continue to be reported and the constant requests for me to comment. I will make a statement here.



Supposedly, Francesa was mentioned in the Mueller Report






Yes, I made that up. But I truly wonder what this is all about
..  
BeckShepEli : 3/23/2019 4:15 pm : link
probably about the news that came out 2 days ago that Adam Schein was suppose to take over for him/and join him before he retires again
There was also news on the Carton front  
Bobby Humphrey's Earpad : 3/23/2019 4:24 pm : link
Carton is to be sentenced April 5. In pre-sentencing, Chernoff wrote a note to the judge saying that if Carton got probation that WFAN would "welcome the opportunity to discuss" hiring him back. People are speculating whether that would be mornings or to push Francesa out the door.
My money's on the Schein report.

Adam Schein is awful...  
Chris in Philly : 3/23/2019 4:43 pm : link
and so is Carton.

I'll take schein over carton any day.
Their Francesa replacement should just be Evan Roberts  
Oscar : 3/23/2019 4:49 pm : link
He’s not perfect but he’s solid and is an established part of the station at this point. I thought they made a mistake not making him the guy last time around. Benigno is retiring soon, just make it Evan solo. I suspect they will try to go Evan and JJ, not a big fan of JJ though.
Evan is knowledgeable but the one thing I don't  
Ace718 : 3/23/2019 5:36 pm : link
like about him is that he talks way too much about his favorite teams while giving considerably less time to the Yankees, Giants, and Knicks. They should pair him with someone like Kim Jones.

Oh come on could they think of anyone worse? Seriously, all kidding aside I’d rather listen to a steaming pile of hot crap make noise then listen to schein. He is the worst. And I don’t say that lightly.
I don’t listen to Carton  
Mike from Ohio : 3/23/2019 6:32 pm : link
but I have a hard time believing anybody could be worse than Adam Schein. They used to play his show at Gitmo to torture prisoners.

It really is the battle of the douchenozzles between Schein and Carton. Carton is a grade A piece of dog shit and he's obnoxious and loud and Schein is also all of those things, so it's really a pick your poison scenario.

Careful using the term douche on here, I got lit up by Big Blue Blogger on here a few weeks ago for saying it in reference to Rosen. Apparently some view it as sexist. I have always heard it used to describe someone who is arrogant and or a jerk, never heard it meant to be sexist in any way. That being said, I agree with your post.
Kraft rolled on him....

Roberts is the best on that station.

Chernoff should be fired for even considering this. Carton should never work in this market again. He is a scumbag who defrau.ded a lot of people. What's more, he is a degenerate gambler who shouldn't be given the opportunity to facilitate that addiction and vice by placing him in that environment with access to information.

That's a tough call. Schein is just terrible and his voice is grating and he knows very little. Carton is just an asshole.
Is Francesa Really Leaving?  
Samiam : 3/23/2019 8:30 pm : link
Is that confirmed or rumor?
Is that really the best WFAN can do?  
732NYG : 3/23/2019 8:34 pm : link
Carton and Schein are bottom of the barrel garbage.
Well if we are lucky the jerk will go to prison.  
Giant John : 3/24/2019 1:02 am : link
Maybe he can do a morning show from his cell?
Francesa sure does remind  
mattnyg05 : 3/24/2019 7:19 am : link
me of someone else, especially lately.

According to him, whatever he says is true even if it is obviously proven false, and anyone that tries to argue differently gets ripped to shreds. He has always been this way but right now he’s empowered like never before.

I just don’t understand how he can stare facts in the face and disregard them every time he gets caught in a falsehood. Or flub a word or name and fight until the bitter end to argue about it. Remember when someone called in asking about impending free agent DJ Fluker (and others) a few years back and he just shit all over the caller because he thought they were fake names??? Absolutely no admittance of being wrong at any point.

Narcissistic guy, shitty radio show, and for the record - no, I don’t even listen to it.
Adam Schein is the human nails on a chalkboard  
Jints in Carolina : 3/24/2019 9:01 am : link
he is god awful.
Carton  
Rong5611 : 3/24/2019 9:07 am : link
Is likely going to jail...
Chernoff's Revenge  
JohnF : 3/24/2019 9:49 am : link
Hire BOTH Carton and Schein for Francessa's spot. Hearing them snipe at each other would be hilarious!

I'd take the sound of nails going across a chalkboard 24/7 over Schein
Chernoff is so bad at his job  
moespree : 3/24/2019 1:58 pm : link
Everybody hates him, he's watched the ratings tank, and now he wants to re-hire a guy found guilty on 3 felonies. Carton was still talking the gambling lines by the way in his internet show he did after being fired. This was while waiting for his trial to begin.

To even remotely consider re-hiring a person like this tells you all you need to know. Doesn't matter anyway though because while he may not get the 45 years he faces, he'll got plenty of jail time.
Honestly, Wfan is absolute trash now.  
732NYG : 3/24/2019 2:03 pm : link
If you’re still listening to it, it’s probably because you haven’t figured out the internet or satellite radio yet.

I think Gio is good but besides that it is pretty garbage.
