http://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/sports/Radio-Host-Singing-Thong-Song-For-Jets-80623937.html No one can say that WFAN radio host Craig Carton doesn't make good on his bets. And because of that, the radio jock, who co-hosts the "Boomer and Carton" show with former Jets QB Boomer Esiason, is going to have a very cold Friday. It all started a few weeks ago, before Thanksgiving, when Carton, so sure that the Jets wouldn't make the post-season, said that if Gang Green made the playoffs he would walk over the Brooklyn Bridge in a Speedo. "I know my Jets, and I knew they would disappoint me -- they always do. Who knew this would be the year the opposite would happen," Carton told NBCNewYork.com. "I will be wearing Jets green, I'll have a Kerry Rhodes jersey on, and a green Speedo, which will be stuffed, but other than that you'll see my beautiful body," he said. Who knew indeed. Even coach Rex Ryan declared the season over after the Jets lost to the Atlanta Falcons on Dec. 20. But now that Mark Sanchez and company are on the long hard road to the Super Bowl after a unbelievable win over the Bengals, Carton is keeping his word -- again. He made the same statement and ate the same words two years ago when the Giants made their miraculous run for the championship. "We'll have all the Jets fans in the tri-state area joining us," said Carton, who is looking to get Jet greats like Joe Namath, Joe Klecko and Mark Gastineau to join him, wearing pants of course. And for a little extra incentive, everyone with him on the bridge -- he plans to start at Cadman Plaza and walk to Manhattan around noon -- will get a raffle ticket to possibly win a big screen Samsung TV. =========== WFAN page Twitter
I'm not sure which part of that sentence is more disturbing: visualizing Carton in a speedo, the knowledge that he would stuff, or the fact that somebody still thinks Kerry Rhodes is good.
I don't have access to the "local media" so I am investing in an internet radio - will be cool to hear the local presenters and radio stations talking about the Jets (even if, from what I read on here, they are pretty much all douches). With this in mind can anyone list the main radio stations that carry a lot of local sports chat so I can see if they have an internet broadcast?
Try this link it works for me in Texas http://player.play.it/player/player.html?v=4.10.2&id=62&onestat=wfan
Carton is an idiot.... Anyone hear when he said "any fan who brings up 8 men in the box is talking BS and has no idea whet they are talking about"... Saying something like that IMO proves he's clueless... Dude can't count to EIGHT???? He has no idea about the concept of 8 men in the box - He doesn't or didn't know what "The Box" was... Basic Football concepts.... He's all fluff and just throws outrageous claims out there "Lock it UP".... Again, base on on a rudimentary understanding of the game.... He's like talking football with a teenager or your wife.... Boomer just has to laugh him off at times.... And during baseball season his whole shtick is annoying - Yankee hater, until things look good...
Not really curious about a man walking in a speedo. If that is your thing, then I won't judge. Anyway, didn't he or someone else pull this same lame gig last year?
