The only way we'll start seeing back pages is if we make the conference finals at least. It doesn't shock me in any way shape or form. That time will come though.
Honestly, I think there's some good to the fact that the team flies below the radar. I don't see a lot of positives coming out of a ton of prominent mainstream coverage.
yea I didnt even post about it when I heard b/c I anticipate it being garbage. He *****ed that he was coerced into doing the interview b/c someone else wanted him to do it. Said "...who had a good night I heard." Geez either commit to having the guy or shut your mouth Franny. I loved his ripping apart Paterno and penn state but would greatly prefer him not touching hockey
Jesus christ, show some professionalism.
Can't stand the FAN. Not even because they don't cover hockey, but look at the idiots who frequent there.
"I was watching football all day, so I didn't see the game..."
Great, Mike, thanks for acknowledging the obvious. What a complete waste of time. The fact that he's so obvious about the fact that he doesn't care at all about the sport is just insulting. No hockey player should ever bother with this *****
He keeps calling it "the extravaganza".... does he not even know the "Winter Classic" name?
Just came to comment on this. It's sad in a way really, if this team does what it's capable of, we'll have to deal with this stupidity more and more in the springtime.
It is always weird when Mike tries to do hockey. I have mixed feelings about it. In some ways it seems like a backhanded compliment that he lets the NHL grace his show but then openly says he knows nothing about it and doesnt watch it. That said, we always complain about the lack of coverage and Mike does have a top sports radio show. It is a catch-22.
Can you imagine someone like Francessa interviewing an NFL player and admitting that he didn't bother to watch the game in question and knows nothing about any of the players involved? That **** would never fly.
But since it's hockey it's apparently OK. What an embarassment....my 9 year old cousin could conduct a better interview than this *********.
Mike doesn't know Hockey but it's a pretty decent interview.
It absolutely is not. By any reasonable standard. It's clear that the interviewer knows nothing about the player he's interviewing, the game in question, the opposition, etc.
It's painfully obvious Francessa is just ************ this interview. Don't sugarcoat and make it seem like it's anything but a terrible one.

You're overeacting a little. The interview is quit good.
