Brandon Inge has no fungibility. He is very good. I like him a lot. He's good. I like Brandon Inge. A lot. Not fungible, that guy. He's unique. I like him. Like him a lot.
Mike fucked up and knew it.....fungibility means the EXACT opposite of uniqueness lol All that diet coke and Manny's chicken francaise got Tank entering early dementia
Thanks Rubber C. This is just a classic Francesa clip that highlights what a pompous ass he's become.
It's really amazing how pompous Mike has gotten in the last 10-15 years. I actually used to enjoy his show with the mad dog 15-20 years ago but now he's unlistenable.
There's a great point around the .47 second mark where he makes a finger gesture like he's some sort of chef talking about his latest creation.
Francesa is so full of BS in this clip. No one talked about fungibility in baseball during the late 70's. the term "Fungibility" in baseball comes from Moneyball and Rotisserie baseball from the late 90's-early 00's.
There's a point around 2:20 that Francesa is speaking pure gibberish when he starts talking about "remedying the contract and damages".
In MIke's classes the law of fungibility states that fungible actually means the direct opposite of fungible. So that the damages are irreparable and cannot be remedied. And stuff.
This 3 minute clip is the personification of Francesa's entire career.
He starts off the segment using a word incorrectly and in a very smug and condescending manner no less. Then rather than show some humility and admit he used the world incorrectly, he spends 2 minutes coming up with the most bizarre and convoluted explanation. In the end, it's the "Listeners" who are blamed for misinterpreting the word not the infallible Francesa.
This might be the best 3 minutes in Sports Radio History.
First of all, there is no "Law of Fungibility". Secondly, I find it highly implausible that a communications major from St. Johns would have taken a coarse in "Contract Law'.
Fungibility refers to something that's "Interchangeable" not something that's "Unique".
Cliff Lee would have a little or no "fungibility" because his skills are unique.
A DH with a .250 BA has a high degree of fungibility because he's easily replaceable.
reminds me of the time many years ago when Mike & the Pooch were discussing a player who broke his "tibula", which, I believe, is the next step in the evolution of the tibia and the fibula. Francessa and Russo were (and are) ahead of their time.
Are his Diet Cokes fungible?

@ 1:00
"Someone asked me to explain what I was talking about with this Fungibility"
"Let me explain it to you the way I learned it back at St. John's when I took Contract Classes".......Classic, you can't make that up.
The he proceeds to read the definition, TWICE, off a sheet of paper recently printed off the internet....Classic.
Doesn't Mike realize he's being filmed??

Go to Wikipedia and type in "Fungibility" and look at the section titled "Fungibility vs. liquidity."
