I think its possible.
I dont know what Im going to do.
I want to do something.
Yeah, why not?
I think it would be fun.
(Last year, the duo hosted a benefit show at New Yorks Radio City Music Hall.)
Mike and the Mad Dogdebuted in September 1989 on WFAN, New Yorks first all-sports station.
I dont know if it ever changed us while we were together, Francesa said.
I always knew he was much easier to let something go than I was.
If I was set on something, it was not happening.
He was much more flexible than I was; I was not flexible at all.
So he was clearly, especially early on, much more flexible and much more giving than I was.
Ill give into this, Ill agree to this.
I wouldnt give in.
So I was really awful in that regard.
He was much more flexible, giving, and he gave more to the relationship than I did.
He was a better sport about it.
I was much harder from that regard.
But when he would get his back up and get temperamental, you couldnt talk to him.
The rest of the station could talk to me, they couldnt talk to him.
I dont have that now.
I dont think theres ever been anything close to it.
Mike and the Mad Dog, directed by Daniel H. Forer, airs July 15 on ESPN.
