  • say let me tell you something one more time

  • it was the supa bowl

  • mike has taken a shit in the press box bathroom and after had a coke and pizza from the press box

  • do you get a coke-a-cola while ur in the press box? LMAO

  • new ys sucks the seats behind hp are always half empty cause the white collars are eating in the restaurant zippin wine

  • chris was right the new stadium just doesn't have the same feel as the old one

  • What I took out of this is that it takes Mike 5 innings to go to the bathroom. Sounds like he needs more fiber in his diet.

  • Place was REBUILT!

  • mike is so damn wrong ...

    they played in that PARK!!!!!!!!!!!

    mike playing with words..."they (the greats) didnt play on that field"...give me a break...well if they didnt play on that field...they surely didnt play on this new one.

    the real yankee stadium was fine...ask any REAL fan....those who didnt need the 10 more luxury boxes...btw...have u hear mike since....he hates the new park!!!

  • @newt0830 As a lifelong fan I can say the new stadium is much better than the old one.

  • When they were together EQUAL PERFECT, when they are separate EQUAL GARBAGE !!!!

  • I love how people say how Mike is Stupid and he probably know more about sports than every person that wrote a comment combine.

  • @Olivpinc Well obviously he would approve of your grammatical errors in your comment as well

  • "The average slob"  hhaah

  • As some point Mike had enough of this nonsense. The show was great though, and all friends argue about something. Mike has a giant ego, but he record against Russo in arguments is undefeated. And I listened almost every day since 98.

  • @torr5962 Mike is stupid.

  • I miss Dog-

  • Comment removed

  • AL HUGHES-- nothing like an argument between two guys who are never wrong.

  • Mad Dog is a real asshole. I think he's disagreeing with Mike out of spite..

  • haha what do you want me to do about it? go picket haha

  • i agree with mike on this one. it can take a while to go to the bathroom.

  • "any shape way or form"

  • dog was 100% right, the new stadium stinks

  • @mtc6050 youre shot

  • I have no issue with the Yankees getting a new stadium. I love NYS. The design overall represents the old park very well. Few issues I have with it( split upper deck, bland frieze, upper deck doesn't overhang 2nd deck).

    What pisses me off is that they tore OYS down completely. They could have saved some of the structure and make it into shops, museum, and restaurant.

    Also, Mike is wrong. Renovated Yankee Stadium was still the 1937 Yankee Stadium( when the extensions were finished).

  • Listen people, they needed that stadium badly. The old one was a shithole, it was cramped, dirty and not very well lit in the concourses

  • 75,000th viewer:)

  • @TrueLoveNeverDies82 Francesa is so wrong about this. The new stadium has lines all over the place and none of the charms of the old one. It's dead. The fans are nothing but the business crowd, it'll never be the same again. Come on.

  • @TrueLoveNeverDies82 I see your response about economics was a reply to my bringing up the "business" crowd. When I said that it had less to do with the cost of the seats than the type of fans the new stadium seems to attract. Maybe the cost and the fan base are related, but I'm not interested in the price of the seats as much as the acoustics of the stadium. It's quieter and more subdued, that's a negative in my opinion.

  • @TrueLoveNeverDies82 I have season tickets and have for years, what economics or "psychological" issues have to do with an opinion is beyond me. Not mention, my opinion is one many fans of the old stadium share. If you've spent any amount of time at both ballparks it's pretty obvious that the fan base has changed and the noise level along with it. I don't care about whether Ruth or Mantle played on the field, that's a little before my time. I care about the fan experience.

  • Comment removed

  • I agree with dog here. The new stadium is nothing compared to the old ballpark.  Also, even as a Yankee fan, I'll tell you Fenway Park is a wonderful experience.

    Oh, and it was the Supa bowl, it was the supa bowl, it was the supa bowl

  • "there will be no lines in the new ballpark"....

    In the new Yankee Stadium the long lines are EVERYWHERE except for "premium" areas. Basically you have to pay to not stand in line.

  • its funny watching the fat guy laugh and the bald guy wanting to crawl under the table

  • let me tell you something, let me tell you something, let me tell you something

  • yankee stadium was totally torn apart and renovated in 1975, they didn't need a new park

  • this is great.. mike needs a partner again. hearing him yell, then hang up on, then continue to yell at callers is a bit boring now.. he needs someone who fights back.. i hate even ' whiner' roberts, but him and mike would be good together..let mike beat up on him...

  • i really miss the old stadium...

  • this was the fight that ended the show

  • neither team needed a new one

  • Mike is wrong. There's not a lot of lines in camden bc attendance is low, not because it is new.

  • STFU, Russo. What a loud-mouthed moron he is. I used to have to turn the radio off during my commute when Mad Dog "got going". Now I can listen to Francesa in peace.

  • @Vox91 Yeah the constant 12 seconds of silence while mike tries to maneuver the internet are radio gold. Another great segment is when he reads silently to himself.

  • Im a mets fan and I miss old yankee stadium, the new one doesnt impress me at all. They did a bad job in terms of the average fan. My bro a diehard yankee fan likes Citi field better and they spent double on yankee stadium. the yankee org only appeal to the suits. I went to a game this year and they wouldnt let me go down for bp,, that has never happened to me at any other stadium. The Yankees dont treat their average fan right which is about 95% of the fan base. Shame on the Yanks

  • GOD I miss Mad Dog. Francessa really needs a new partner. I miss these arguments.

  • The REAL point is that Yankee Stadium was crumbling. They had to cancel some home games and move others to Shea in the early 2000's in order to reinforce some crumbling upper deck sections. It was costing a fortune every off-season in infrastructure upkeep to keep it from falling down. 

  • @MegaObserver1 that was back in 1998

  • huh i wonder why there not together anymore

  • Mike, guess what...YOU ARE WRONG AND YOU KNOW IT, give Dog credit for once and he might still be there...admit when you are wrong for once geez...I miss Yankee Stadium

  • I love how akward it is for minko waiting for the update

  • This is why i miss Mike and the Mad Dog. You always had an opposition opinion in Russo. These guys are okay single but perfect together.

  • @Badguy10472 i miss them dearly.....chris is a clown for wanting his own channel on some bullshit satellite

  • just because you turn a baseball stadium into an amusement park dosent mean its better

  • "Utta nonsense! Dat doesn't mean dey won't like it maawa when dey have a new bawwpawwk dats nice!"

    ....Mike is right!

  • I think they forgot about the caller.....

  • look at minko lollololololo

  • I'm a big Yankee fan who goes to a handful of games every year. Anyone who thinks they didn't need a new stadium is living under a rock and probably hadn't been to the old stadium in 20 years. By today's standards, it was a DUMP. The new PALACE blows it away.

  • "dat was da supa bowl dat was da supa bowl dat was da supa bowl"

  • @njsbigdogg is that english you're typing? oh wait, thats ebonics, ghetto thug black grammar.

  • @NYBornJM what the fuck is ghetto thug black grammar you dumb fuck

  • @NYBornJM you're an idiot. you missed the reference completely.

  • @blueballsredhair how dare you talk about george like that

  • what does mad dog think the loser Muts (Mets) deserve a new stadium? hahahah!

  • I also agree with Dopey Dog....It is a travesty that the Yankees knocked down the Cathedral. When you continue to have 4 million fans going, the only reason to tear down that stadium was GREED!....I hope it bites the Yanks in the ass. (LOUSY BUSINESS MOVE.....LOUSIER TIMING!))

  • mad dog is sooooooooo right about this

  • Arguing like kids....LOL

  • it's not like little kids, it's like professionals and what made them the best, and that's what you'll never understand.

  • that stings

  • stay away from the press box bathroom aftah Mike has used it

  • @aimeepic Yes! I agree! LMAO!!!

  • Ha...Mike tries to Handwave Dog XD

  • I think refurbishing the stadium was the way to go. Yankee Stadium was a classic park that should have been upgraded every so often.

  • mike is 100% right....the old yankee stadium was PACKED, small hallways, always a line every where you go..the yanks needed a new stadium no question

  • mike is right here but mike sucks,

    they both suck without eachother...LISTEN TO STERN!

  • these guys suck and that espn commercial is right these guys didnt know anything about sports beyond the yankees and other new york teams

  • lol, awkward for Minko

  • "who goes to a ballpark to sit in a seat?"

  • Comment removed

  • missed a lot of game 1 of the WS trying to go to the can Mikey! Missed a lot of Game 1 of the ALCS for the same reason. I didn't miss that much at the old stadium. F the rich humps in the padded seats! Why? More buzz at a Yanks v. Sox game reg. season than game 1 of WS. F the Steakhouse, F the martini bars, how dare you charge $10 for a PBR or Ballantine tallboy. When you get same for a budlight draft!

  • this is the funniest thing i've ever seen hahahaha i love it.. theyre like brothers

  • normally i agree with francesa but havin no lines at concessions in the new stadium is bullshit i went to game 2 of the alcs this year and i missed the entire 8th inning waiting for food

  • the new stadium sucks

  • haha Minkos like "god damnit can I just do my 20/20 report already?"

    I've been to the new Stadium this year, I'd rather go to the old stadium and pay much less for the seats. I could care less about the upgrades with how high the ticket prices were

  • Minko's a little froggy and he sucks

  • What the hell is fan friendly? The new park here in St. Louis is an oversized minor league park, no character and is the modern day cookie cutter. I would much rather see a game at Wrigley, the old yankees stadium and the old Busch.

  • I'm a life long die hard yankee fan and I agree with mad dog.... the yankees didn't need a new stadium and I really miss the old one.

  • I agree with Chris Russo, the yankees DID NOT need a new stadium

  • I'm a Yankee fan and I don't think the Yankees NEEDED a new stadium based on the amount of money they have. They could have had the Yankees played a season or two in another stadium (Shea or Citi Field) and once again refurbished the stadium. But the fan experience at the new stadium is 100000x better -- and in my opinion, that's what it's ALL about.

  • and you're the idiot who pays for the new stadium with higher prices. if you want an "experience" drop acid. going to a ball game is not an experience, it's a day out watching ball

  • It's not an experience? What the hell else would you call it? You are one of the idiots who thinks all the prices are higher. They are not. The corporate, luxury seats are higher. The seats for the regular fans remain (in conjunction with inflation) the same price. I still go to a ball game at the New Yankee Stadium for 14 bucks :) Thanks. (Don't even reply back with the words obstructed view, those 14 dollar seats are first row bleachers -- Only 22 for upper deck -- get your facts straight)

  • And to further iterate my point. I have a 2000 World Series ticket for loge 15. The price was $160 (face). The face value for the translated loge 15 (Main 214B) is $186 for a World Series game (which is actually $12 LOWER in price when considering inflation -- $160 in 2000 would cost $198 in 2008).

  • That is just one example.  That doesn't mean it's the rule. Overall, prices are extremely higher at the new Yankee Stadium for everything.

  • Whatever dude, been to 5 of the 30 stadiums in the majors and prices for beer and hot dogs are the same. The average site price is so high because the most expensive seat is over 2 grand. Who has those seats? Sony and Microsoft. They always have had them and they still do. Doesn't hurt the regular fan charging them more. Seat prices for general public for Yanks, Red Sox, Angels are all comparable -- the city of New York made it very clear to keep the prices in the stadium the same and they have.

  • The new Yankee Stadium is plain and simple, the 'House That Greed Built."

  • ur a tard.

  • you're goddamn right man.

  • 100% correct.

  • Towards the end DOG cant even look him in the eye.

    The beginning of the end.

  • Amazing show! It's a shame when egos get in the way.

  • hahaha 6:48 ..."I don't shit in the press box..."

  • lol guy at 3:06..."I've had enough of this" lol

  • Minko!

  • I'm glad Russo is gone now

    I don't know how he thinks the bathrooms weren't cramped

    I would go in between innings and wait in long lines

  • these to were gold together u got to be kidding me

  • Mike alot of times can be wrong but Mad Dogg is the biggest cock sucker in sports. He works in New York and was on the yankees network for years but is the biggest yankee hater in the world. Even if he agrees at heart he will argue it just to get under mikes skin because its the yankees. Bottom line is mike is right. If Mad Dogg argued the history being gone then he had a point but he's an illiterate. Lil twirp.

  • so guys, was an over two times increase of price tickets worth the building of the new Yankees Stadium? I've been to both, I personally say no

  • theyre not that expensive go on places like stubhub im goin to next weeks Chicago WS game and me and my dad got terrace 3rd row seats for 25 each

  • wheres terrace, 3rd deck? The bleachers some games are $25 but outerfield box is $50 every game or more...$100 for like row 12 and lower

  • its the third deck but its leaning out over everybody and its not that far up its good seats for 25 bucks

  • yeah, what a good overview of the field? is it behind homeplate or in the Left or Right field? I might wanna check a game out from up there. I only usually sit lower level (left field 10 rows back)

  • Where's part 2?

  • Fenway is the worst ballpark, but it has lived thru alot of stuff and a lot of history. But don't tell me that theres not enough room for a new ballpark in Boston, and the fact that Red Sox fans say that if Fenway is gone, that it will curse the Red Sox. That's a full load of BS!

  • Mike is such a bitter man...! Thanks for the great video I miss Doggy!

  • This is the best video for exposing what a hypocrite Francesa is! He says in this video that the old Yankee stadium is cramped, but he says now that the new stadium is missing the intimacy and closeness the old ball park had. In this video he says that Fenway park is the worst stadioum to see a ballgame in, yet nowadays he tells everyone it's the best game experience to have and recommends that everyone needs to go to Fenway at least once in their life! What a 2 faced asshole

  • @needcafeen247 The only reason the Yankees went for a new game was because the Mets got one. FACT

    The sickening part is that the Yankees got over 1 billion dollars of tax payer money.

  • Russo didn't call anyone a slob, he's saying new york is calling the average person a slob by giving the VIP parking to the rich bastards

  • You guys are missing the point here: This was great radio! Who else could make a conversation about bathrooms in ballparks so compelling!

  • Haroldbeavis1969

    I agree.

  • That was great radio. Bathrooms discussion. lol I miss them. Mike should have stayed.

  • He did, Chris left. : )

  • bottom line: The Yankees DIDNT need a new ballpark!

  • Mike "I never been in a press box!!...Oh, well yea I went to a bathroom that was in a pressbox" lol!!

  • Mike complained about the Phoenix superbowl, he couldnt find a 12 xl size shirt.

  • Keep hating on mike and mike will just keep counting his millions you jealous insignificant worthless low life loser.

  • Mike says, I went to the Old ballpark 1,000's of times, what????? yeah right, maybe 200 times, but thousands? a little over-exagerration

  • i dont like mike but he gave a better argument...mad dogs voice is awesome though lmao

  • Have you seen the empty seats at the new park? Russo was right. It's not a matter of opinion anymore, it's been proven. The new park has been a failure compared to the old one.

  • the yankees halfed several ticket prices

  • If the prices of the tickets weren't so damn expensive, maybe people would actually go to the games and fill the seats.

  • the stadiums r full i was there a month ago is just because there a so many ppl in the hallways thats y the seats arent all full

  • I am a average fucking slob.....wat the fucks up wit that??!!!!!

  • Wow, Dog was exactly right about how much they'd charge for seats at the new Stadium.

  • Let me tell ya sumthin Let me tell ya sumthin Let me tell ya sumthin Let me tell ya sumthin Let me tell ya sumthin Let me tell ya sumthin Let me tell ya sumthin Let me tell ya sumthin

  • I agree with Chris Russo, the Yankees didn't need a new stadium

  • I am so friggin' glad Russo is gone. What an Asshole!!!

  • and a guy I talk to online told me he couldnt get near the Hard Rock cafe

    and the Museum either lol, the museum line went down three ramps, and the Hard Rock was packed, lol.

  • Mike is more intelligent

  • I agree with Erik. I was there for the friday game. The lines were insane !!!! especially in the bleachers. 1.5 billion dollar joke !!!

  • Mike says there wont be any lines at the new stadium. Yeah, you should have seen the lines at monument park Apri3rd and 4th VS the cubs.

  • And isnt it sad that a yankee hater like

    Chris Russo feels more sadness

    at Yankee Stadium's death than Francessa who is a huge Yankee Fan ?!

  • I'm a lifelong Yankee fan ( since 1963 ) and I also agree with Russo.

  • DODGERS !!!!!!

  • I'm a die hard, and I agree with Russo

  • mike voice makes me wanna vomit

  • yankees suck!!!!!!! LETS GO METS CITI FIELD 09

  • well who's in the playoffs, and who's not? EPIC FAIL!!!! YANKEES 4 LIFE!

  • yea cus they've got a gazillion dollars to get all the best players, ya banana head...why do you think they make the playoffs every year...zzzzz....put me out of my misery, please.

  • Epic fail for the yankees the Angels are kicking their asses!!

  • I like how dog says they haven't had a call about seats in 20 years, and Tank just goes "Don't tell him Babe Ruth played on that field!!!"

  • yankees should have been made to pay every dime i whent there once and they do need a new stadium binghamton mets stadium is better yankees stadium is a dump there was a line at the restrooms by the way

  • They didnt play on that field yes,

    BUT ! Its the same GROUND THE LEGENDS PLAYED ON !

  • Mike : " it was scary, thats not how a

    ball park should be".

    well, using that logic, you should move them out of the South Bronx Altogether

    then, because its a ghetto. LOL.

  • hey mike how does it feel to get owned?????????? Bitch ass fat ass

  • are u kidding me? Dog used to make arguments like these that make absolutely no sense

  • "They didnt play on the same feild". So if you change the baselines alittle its not the same feild? I am not a Yankee fan but I got to say thats bull shit. The Yankees have won over 20 world series in the most important ball park in the world and this guy is complaining about scoreboards and bathroom lines. IT'S FUCKING YANKEE STADIUM!! Piss in the parking lot, get to the game early, and enjoy. I cant stand to hear a Yankee fan bitch about bathrooms and seats. Shut up!

  • this is sad... corporate tradition killing at it's finest with no accountability or punishment to the owners and the politicians that enable them.

  • they didnt play on that field, trust me, the changed everything about it

  • what a horrible thing to say. I hope you don't mean that.
