Mike and the Mad Dog no more
Saturday, August 16, 2008 at 05:01PM I'm not sure how I missed this story -- oh wait, I was traveling all week -- but it looks like the radio tandem of Mike Franscesa and Chris Russo have done their last show.
Russo called it quits from their "Mike and the Mad Dog" show on Thursday, and speculation has it that he'll sign a long-term contract with Sirius XM radio.

It doesn't come entirely as a shock -- there has been whispers for months that relations between the two had grown icy -- but nonetheless it's still hard to imagine the NY sports scene without them.
They're were equally annoying, entertaining, and insightful all at the same time. They practically invented the category of sports talk radio, and spawned a legion of copycats around the country. They were must-hear listening following any big sporting event, and on more than one occasion they became part of the story themselves.
Listeners had a love-hate relationship with the duo -- love if you agreed with them; hate pretty much the rest of the time -- but in the end the show will be missed.
