Time for some links on this Monday night.
Neil Best of Newsday blogs that Yankees manager Joe Girardi will indeed join WFAN’s Mike & the Mad Dog every week during the baseball season. And Best reports on the argument that entailed between Mike & the Mad Dog and NFL Director of Officiating Mike Pereira.
The Sports Media Watch blog tells us that Ohio State-Michigan this past Saturday did very well in the ratings for ABC. And from the “What the Hell?” Department, we find that ESPN Radio morning co-host Mike Greenberg will lead a game show this December on ABC. I don’t even know what to make of that.
Jim Carlisle of the Ventura County Star blogs that in advance of the Fernando Vargas-Ricardo Mayorga PPV boxing fight this Friday, ESPN Classic shows a bunch of Vargas’ past fights this week.
CBS Sports has the notable quotes from The NFL Today on Sunday.
Kyle Hightower of the Orlando Sentinel blogs that the Conference USA Championship Game will be seen on ESPN at noon on December 1.
This is all over the blogosphere and might as well be here too. From last Saturday’s Missouri-Kansas State game on FSN, sideline reporter Jim Knox takes a tumble.
Hilarious.
And from Tuesday’s New York Times, David Picker exposes, well that’s a bad word for it, investigates the alternative halftime show taking place at Jets games in the pedestrian ramps at Giants Stadium. Jets fans have all the reason to be proud of themselves (I’m being sarcastic here). The Times also has a slideshow of the story. But if you want to see what actually goes on, you can go to YouTube and go here. Warning, NSFW.
That’s it for tonight. See you tomorrow.
