Mike and The Mad Dog - 1989-2008
Friday, August 15th, 2008It isnt a tragedy in the traditional sense, but to me, and apparently to a lot of other people, as is evidenced by the call Mike is getting today, this is a sad day. Chris ‘Mad Dog’ Russo is leaving “the mike and the mad dog radio program.” He was on the show earlier to explain himself and to say his goodbyes and he claims that he has no other job offers at the moment but the rumor is that he is going to Sirius for a mutil-million dollar deal. Regardless of the reason its going to be hard to turn on the radio between 1 and 630 everyday and not hear his annoying but infectious voice. he isnt dead although you would assume he was based on some of the calls mike has been getting but as a radio personality he will be missed. I listen to Mike and the Mad Dog everyday. when i was working at Gartner i listened to them on my computer and now that im not working i like to be in my car around 1 to hear the opening. And who the hell else am i going to listen to? Michael Kaye? I would rather listen to the sounds of airplanes crashing into the sides of mountains or the new Pussycat Dolls song. Im going to miss hearing Chris bury the Yankess everyday. But its funny. I am listening as i type this and the report came through that the Yankees have sent some guys down to the minors and the subject changed instantly. Fans are funny. I think my cousin Sean recently got a baseball signed by both Mike and the Mad Dog. That is now a valuable baseball my friend.
