WFAN's Sweeny Murti Puts Mike Francesa to Sleep

Mike Francesa is fading faster than the Boston Red Sox. Not even Sweeny Murti's upbeat Yankee report can revive the corpulent talk show host.

1) Mike fell asleep.

2) Someone in the control room got on his headphone and yelled "MIKE!"

3) Mike wakes up and is confused because he's been asleep.

4) Mike then pretends like he wasn't asleep and acts like the guys in the control room are asshats for thinking he was asleep.

5) Then goes on the radio a few days later and denies that he was ever sleeping, even though he was on TV when it happened and this video proves it. Mike does this because he is a pompous windbag

I have no idea why people think he knows what he is talking about. If you listen to him, listen to how he can drag out a single point through repetition and "uhhhh's" and "ummmm's" - a point that would take a few words to make, he drags over a period of minutes, just to fill his air time. Which is appropriate, because his show is just that - air. Now I see that he is sleeping on air - this is precious!

Sweeny says Mike

It's just funny that he appears to wake up riiight as Murti says his name too.

[Bill K]

The look on his face when he wakes up is great! What a tool.

As much of a douche I think Mike is that GD Sweeney was sucking all the oxygen of Earth in that conversation.

I wish I could get $5 million to fall asleep on the job! ha!!!!! He denies it because he wasn't awake. Maybe Sweeney can get a job as an Alternative treatment for Insomnia!
