+ganja inmylungs420 Who cares? That has no relevance to the conversation. Beani mentioned the Knicks and Mets, not the Yankees. As a fellow lifelong Eagles fan I can relate Mike. Fly Eagles Fly!!
He encapsulated what every real Giants fan felt for decades until 2010. Decades of many bad teams and also MANY really good/great teams that always no matter what found a way to come up short. The night they finally won it all in 2010 felt like an exorcism for me.
@@MrSpeed-lt8gr yep! And 1993 still gets me. The last year before wildcards and they win 103, dominate the NL all year, and finish one game short with a complete team that was as good as any that year 🤦🏻♂️ and I still hate the Cardinals because of 87 😂 I was 12 and burned my Ozzie Smith starting lianeup figure
Just to give some context to what Chris Maddog Russo is saying, here are 11 points regarding what Russo said about the San Francisco Giants not winning big games ever since the Giants moved to San Francisco from New York, to help you understand what he is referring to: 1- “Busch stadium in 1987”, He is referring to the 1987 NLCS, when San Francisco had a 3-2 lead over St. Louis. And then San Francisco lost both game 6 and game 7 in Busch Stadium. And in both game 6 and game 7, the Giants scored zero runs both games 2- “1993 season, with the score ending in 12-1” , He is referring to the 1993 NL West race between Atlanta and San Francisco (yes, Atlanta was in the NL West in 1993). Both teams were tied after 161 games and both teams had over 100 wins. Atlanta won game 162 against Colorado, while the Giants lost game 162 to the Dodgers in Dodger stadium, 12-1, Piazza destroying the Giants. Thus, Atlanta won the 1993 NL West, while the Giants got disqualified and no postseason, even with over 100 wins. 1993 was the final season that MLB did not have a wild card, so if there was a wild card, the Giants would have gotten it in 1993. 3- “The game in Wrigley Field; nobody beats the Cubs; we cant beat them”. He refers to the 1998 tiebreaking game to decide the 1998 NL Wild Card, in which San Francisco lost to the Cubs in Wrigley Field, and the San Francisco offense didnt show up. To make it worse, San Francisco could have gotten the NL Wild Card in 1998 if they had beaten Colorado in game 162, in which the Giants had a 7 run lead over Colorado in that game, but the Giants lost that game against Colorado, and then the next day, they lost to the Cubs in that NL Wild Card tiebreaking game. ALTHOUGH, to be fair, the Giants did beat the Cubs in the 1989 NLCS, so the Giants have won big games against the Cubs. 4- “The lousy Mets did it to us” , He is referring to the 2000 NLDS when the Mets won a very exciting NLDS against San Francisco. The only sad part about this series is that it didn't go 5 games. But the Mets were NOT lousy in 2000. 5- “Last year when they spit it up” , He is referring to the 2002 World Series, when San Francisco lost that heartbreaking game 6 to the Angels, followed by that game 7 loss to the Angels. In game 6, with San Francisco up 3-2 in the series, they were 6 outs away from winning it all, but the Angels made a comeback and won that game 6. And in game 7, the offense for San Francisco didnt show up, scoring only 1 run. 6- As for the Giants-Marlins postseason history = The Giants in 1997 faced the Marlins in the division series. The Giants won the NL West and the Marlins won the NL Wild Card. In games 1 and 2, which were both played in Florida, the Marlins won both games in walk-off fashion. And in game 3 in San Francisco, the Marlins beat the Giants to sweep them. In 2003, as we are seeing here, the Giants won the NL West and the Marlins won the NL Wild Card. The Giants lost game 3 in Florida in walk-off fashion. And in game 4 thats also in Florida, the Marlins took the lead over the Giants in the bottom of the 8th. And then the series ended in the top of the 9th, when the Marlins got the Giants baserunner out at home to end the series. So yes, all four postseason games that the Marlins-Giants have played in Florida have all ended in very dramatic fashion. And yes, the Marlins have made the postseason twice in their ten year history, and both times they won the World Series, and both times they beat the Giants in the division series. 7- "Asides from 1962, the Giants have never won a big game" = He is referring to when the Giants and the Dodgers finished tied after 162 games to decide the NL pennant. Remember, from 1968 and before, there was no postseason in MLB, so there was only a World Series between the best team in the NL and the best team in the AL. After finishing tied for the NL pennant in 1962, the Dodgers and the Giants would face each other in a best 2 of 3 to decide the NL pennant. The Giants won the first game, and the Dodgers won the second game. And then the Giants won the third game in Dodger Stadium on the road to clinch the best record in the NL, which gave them the NL Pennant. The Giants would then lose the 1962 World Series to the Yankees in 7 games. The Giants lost game 7, 1-0, in San Francisco. Im surprised Maddog didnt mention this 1962 World Series lost to the Yankees, probably because Russo wasnt alive or just a baby or little kid when this happened, so he doesnt have that passion. but the Giants were the better team this 1962 World Series, and the Giants should have won this 1962 World Series, which would have been their first World Series since moving to San Francisco. 8- "Asides from 2002, which may have been more about the Atlanta Braves, the Giants have never won a big game" = He is referring here to when the Giants beat a 100-wins Atlanta Braves team in the 2002 division series. The Giants were down 2-1 in this series, and then they won both games 4 and 5 against Atlanta. But as we all know, Atlanta during the Bobby Cox era, mostly came up short in postseason play, so thats why hes not giving the Giants too much credit for beating Atlanta in games 4 and 5 in this 2002 division series. 9- Maddog did not mention the 1989 World Series when the Giants got swept by Oakland. But Oakland was the better team, so I guess he took that into consideration. 10- Francesa tells Russo at the beginning "We were looking for that Yankee-Giant World Series" . Russo has always wanted a Yankee-Giant World Series since he started working at the FAN, but it never happened. In 1997, both the Giants and Yankees made the postseason but they both got disqualified in the division series, the Giants by the Marlins, and the Yankees to Cleveland. In 1998, the Yankees made the World Series, but the Giants lost to the Cubs in the NL Wild Card tie breaking game. In 2000, the Yankees made the World Series, but the Giants got disqualified in the division series by the Mets. In 2002, the Giants made the World Series, but the Yankees got disqualified in the division series against the Angels. In 2003, the Yankees made the World Series, but the Giants got disqualified in the division series against the Marlins. 11- Since this rant was in 2003, then I wonder what would have been his reaction in 2004, when the Giants, Astros, Cubs, and Dodgers were battling each other in the final 3 games of the regular season to decide the NL West and the NL Wild card, and the Giants lost a brutal game to get disqualified on game 161, when the Giants had a 3 run lead, and then the Dodgers scored 7 runs in the bottom of the 9th, aka, the steve finley walk off grand slam, which made the Giants lose out on both the NL West and NL Wild card in 2004. 2004 was the final season that the Giants were a competitive team in the Bonds era. In 2005-2006-2007, the Giants all 3 seasons finished with losing records and no postseason, and the Bonds era was over after the 2007 season.
I had no idea that's what he meant. He was basically referring to all the times the Giants lost in the postseason leading up to this moment. Thanks for the information.
And sadly, we Twin fans are still feeling it even today. 2004 was our best chance in beating them after getting a rare road victory in GM 1, and our dumb manager Ron Gardenhire left closer Joe Nathan for too long and the Yanks came back to win in extra innings.
@@meharinationsportspodcast2582 Yeah man, I’ve been there....I was there for the first twenty years of my life until 2004. But if the Sox and Cubs can do it after droughts measured in generations, Minnesota and Cleveland can do it too. It’s just about getting management who cares and a few years of depth building.
@@manifestgtr The problem for those markets is baseball’s economics. With still no salary cap and only a luxury tax that the richest clubs can easily pay, the smaller market teams are at a big disadvantage. Cleveland has been able to put together a few really good teams in the last 20 years, but they each only had a 2 season or so window to win a championship before they were broken up. The Twins are in an even worse revenue situation. Unless they have an epically brilliant front office like the Rays (who still face limitations) or have everything come together just perfectly (like the Royals did in 2014 and 2015), they’re just not going to be able to beat the Yankees and other deeper, richer teams in the playoffs.
@@jdb316 Yeah, that’s probably the biggest factor in all of this. That’s where things like “moneyball” and player managers can *try* to pick up the slack. Cleveland winning is gonna be a big day for me if/when it happens. After Boston, they’re the team I really throw in for.
This was the golden age of not only Yes Network but WFAN. I would tune in every single day to watch Mike and The Mad Dog and when I saw this rant by Chris Mad Dog Russo I was on the floor laughing not because I enjoyed his pain but because of how mad he got he was practically turning red and I’ve been there with my teams where I get so mad I can’t even contain myself and I just explode. This was Chris Russo coming unglued and I was in stitches.
Perfect way of describing it lmao at first I was like “this ain’t that special” and he just kept going and going and going and I was in tears by the end.
my dad used to listen to them as well, and I would always listen on the was to games and whenever I was in the car with him as a kid. still watch this every year my sixers lose lol
This is the first time I've seen the entire segment where this rant happened. I've heard just the clip of his rant before, but seeing Francesa's reaction made it even better.
That was epic, that loss made me realize that I cared way to much about the San Francisci Giants, I punched hole after hole in the wall of an empty room in my apartment in North Beach. Next year, 2004, a legendary friend of mine, and I decided, to face up to the Giants being about as important as air, at that point, and we started going to just about every home game, even if they stunk, that park had a sick bar scene and it was a blast to hang out.........by 06 07 08......they really stunk again, but we where there every night. The day Lincecum came up against the Phillies, Mad Bum coming up and making his debut out of the pen.....we were there.....Posey, Cain, came up, Brian Wilson was a clean shaven dude with out a ton of confidence, when he arrived, Panda, Romo......we hosted an All Star game at some point, Ichiro hit an inside the park HR....eventually 3 freakin Titles, finally stopped going in 17, hell of a ride!! Favorite 2 home games, Matt Cain's perfecto, and Panda hitting 3 Bombs in game 1 of the 2012 seriesc off Verlander. Good times, Go Giants, we got you a handfull Russo!
Bumgarner single handily won 2014…he willed that championship. It’s the most criminally underrated postseason performance of this generation and I’ve never heard Dog talk about it.
I can't believe that Mad Dog can go back to talking normally at the end and his voice isn't all hoarse. That's a true radio host right there. He did his vocal exercises that morning lol.
I think every Giants fan had a breakdown like this at least once before 2010. For me, it was ‘93. I lived in Atlanta at the time, man, I was so upset!!!
Just about ALL of the teams that shit the bed in the playoffs in the late 90s and early 2000s have won championships. Red Sox, Cubs, Giants, Astros, Eagles, Seahawks, Bruins, Kings, Capitals. All of those cursed teams won titles.
The absolute apex of sports talk radio. A timeless classic. Made even funnier by the fact that the Red Sox and Giants have each won twice in the last 10 years.
Doug Anderson what the fuck are you talking about? Stephen A. Smith is a racist? Based on what? You gotta stop shooting that crystal meth dude. Or get the fuck off of opioids. I don't get it... the most racist group of people in the history of the planet are always calling Black folks racist. What is WRONG with you people? You are a really sick bunch.
Sometimes you gotta go through the pain before success!!! Take it from me i know! still waiting for the Jets and Knicks to win a championship in my lifetime!
This was my exact feeling after the cubs got swept by the dodgers in '08... i stopped following baseball until they hired theo, and didnt watch a game til '13... i just couldnt take it anymore for a few years... this rant takes me back there, lol
The sad thing about all of this is that Dog wasn't on the FAN to share his Championships. That would would have been twice as good as this rant. The ratings would have been twice as good to listen to Dog talk about a championship finally on the FAN
This is exactly how I feel as a Niner fan watching The Niners in big games the last 13 years. Kyle Williams in 11. Kap stopped near the goal line in the Super Bowl against the Ravens in 12, tipped interception in the endzone in 13, blowing a 10 point lead in the 4th quarter in SB after 19 season, dropped interception that would have won the game in 21 in NFC title game against the Rams, QB knocked out of the first drive of the 22 NFC Title Game, then this year.....a fucking punt that just so happens to hit a Niner player's foot when it landed, causes a muffed punt return and the game....along with a blocked extra point. How bad can a team's luck be?
I know that he now has enjoyed three world series titles, but I understand what he went through at the time when he had this rant. Twins have gone the whole decade without even making the playoffs. The one year they actually have a chance to make the playoffs and they are faltering. My patience with the Twins is running bone dry.
@@itizwhatitiz9 30 years? Talk to an Indians fan whose team hasn’t won a championship in 73 years (and who lost two World Series Game 7s in extra innings in the last 25 years alone).
Since this rant... The Red Sox and Giants went on to win 7 of the next 16 World Series.
Yes !
@Tim Jones And the Marlins beat the Yankees in that World Series.
🤣
The truth is the truth.
Yo they hate Russo clearly
The way Mike subtly goaded Dog into mania is just masterful.
Look at Mike's face @ 8:22. It's like he knows this is gonna be hilarious.
He must be the happiest guy in the world now after seeing the Giants win 3 championships in 5 years
I make the same rant about my Eagles every year
And the same with the Knicks and Mets

“Mushnick could be happy” is the most underrated part of this rant
Gotta love Chris 'Mad Dog' Russo ranting about the SF Giants. Can we just win a title one time?! How about three Mad Dog.
One of the great radio segments of all time, and more proof that these two guys belong together. Maybe someday.....

Almost 14 years later, still GOLD!!
Add on another 7 and its still gold 💯
When Chris says "why waste my time!!!" is when it starts getting real! 🤣

The Giants responded and gave him three world championships in five years
8:19 if you want to go straight to the rant.
The apex of sports talk radio. Timeless classic; awesome post.
The best part is mid rant halt of emotions to a "bleep that G-D" then right back into the rant 😂🤣😂
Good call by Mad Dog about Bonds not winning a World Series
Tee OB It's a team sport...
I love how Zaun goads him into talking about the Giants, lol
who else is rewatching this gem after seeing the 30 for 30?
Which 30 for 30 ???
@@joshuapeppars6985 Mike and the Mad Dog
I missed this duo!
Iconic radio duo!!!!! Bring them back.. wfan never the same since this show!!!
And now the Giants have won nine straight playoff series.
+Rylan Dawe The pro sports record is 19,set by the Islanders.
You mean three. Yes they won in 2010, 2012 and 2014, but they did not qualify for the playoff last season, which resets the streak to zero.
The streak resets when they lose a postseason series. It does not reset when they do not qualify for the postseason lol
S3TO1234 Actually, it does
@@timmysullivan2515 wrong
I'm bipolar it's not a joke but these guys pull me out of my depression
Times like this I wish I had Sirius radio. Doggy is going to be elated tomorrow. Congrats to the 2012 World Series Champion San Francisco Giants.
SF Giants won two of the three last World Series. Perhaps they took Dog's rant to heart.
Just about ALL of the teams that shit the bed in the playoffs in the late 90s and early 2000s have won championships. Red Sox, Cubs, Giants, Astros, Eagles, Seahawks, Bruins, Kings, Capitals. All of those cursed teams won titles.
One kings but not the other
Add the Blues to that list now.
I miss this show.
That Marlins team was epic
The absolute apex of sports talk radio. A timeless classic. Made even funnier by the fact that the Red Sox and Giants have each won twice in the last 10 years.
I remember this live on the radio. Absolutely epic
Man francesa didn't miss any meals back then
Triple chin
This is exactly how i have felt about my Knicks, Yankees and Giants for the past 10 yrs
I remember watching this live - we're coming up on 21 years! What?! Miss these days (and the boys together) forever
Chris has to give credit to Mike for not interrupting him at the end.
"the Mets... the lousy METS!" 9:12 lol
Waituhseckin! Waituhseckin!
2000 NLDS
When John Franco struck Bonds out
Mad Dog is quite entertaining when he loses his mind. The Super Bowl ticket trivia one a few days ago was hysterical.
Chris Russo was Stephen A before Stephen A
What a insult to maddog. Embarrassing statement.
Stephen A couldn't pick Dogg's huge schnoz.
Also steven A seems to be a racist....cant listen to him
Doug Anderson what the fuck are you talking about? Stephen A. Smith is a racist? Based on what? You gotta stop shooting that crystal meth dude. Or get the fuck off of opioids. I don't get it... the most racist group of people in the history of the planet are always calling Black folks racist. What is WRONG with you people? You are a really sick bunch.
Stephen A. isn’t a pimple on Dog’s fanny. Handwave.
this is how I feel being a Jets and Knicks fan.
Sometimes you gotta go through the pain before success!!! Take it from me i know! still waiting for the Jets and Knicks to win a championship in my lifetime!
This was my exact feeling after the cubs got swept by the dodgers in '08... i stopped following baseball until they hired theo, and didnt watch a game til '13... i just couldnt take it anymore for a few years... this rant takes me back there, lol
Amén
And then you got to enjoy 2016 hopefully. Happy for you man.
I gotta try this maybe the Mets will win
The Tigers are starting to turn into this for me. It's been almost THIRTY FUCKING YEARS! WIN ONE ALREADY!!!
Make it 35. Annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd counting.
Make it 37 years. My sympathies.
Sad that in 2021 if Chris calls Minnesota “The Twinks” he’d be fired.
There’s a lot of things about 2021-2022 that are downright sad
Stugotz been trying to emulate this video clip for 14 years
That was the happiest I ever saw Francesa.
The sad thing about all of this is that Dog wasn't on the FAN to share his Championships. That would would have been twice as good as this rant. The ratings would have been twice as good to listen to Dog talk about a championship finally on the FAN
Yeah, his show is called Mad Dog Unleashed
this is gold!
These two were quite the pair.
Thats passion baby😆😎
Man, I miss Mad Dog LOL!10:03 LMFAO!
please mad dog.. never change!!! ever!!
Every freaking game in that atupid ballpark? God bless mad dog
miss them together, i still listen to francesa but its no where near as good when these 2 were together..all time best sports radio show ever!
This is exactly how I feel as a Niner fan watching The Niners in big games the last 13 years. Kyle Williams in 11. Kap stopped near the goal line in the Super Bowl against the Ravens in 12, tipped interception in the endzone in 13, blowing a 10 point lead in the 4th quarter in SB after 19 season, dropped interception that would have won the game in 21 in NFC title game against the Rams, QB knocked out of the first drive of the 22 NFC Title Game, then this year.....a fucking punt that just so happens to hit a Niner player's foot when it landed, causes a muffed punt return and the game....along with a blocked extra point. How bad can a team's luck be?
Greatest rant ever
Thank you for posting. Obviously the classic of all classics.
Sports radio at its finest right here. ONE TIME!
8:17 is how I feel about the mets
I imagine that room smelling pungently of cigars and coffee breath
Exactly how I feel about the Mets and Knicks
I know that he now has enjoyed three world series titles, but I understand what he went through at the time when he had this rant. Twins have gone the whole decade without even making the playoffs. The one year they actually have a chance to make the playoffs and they are faltering. My patience with the Twins is running bone dry.
This gets epic around 7:04, classic mad Dog.
This is fantastic
haha awesome to see the video of this finally up on youtube...mike and the mad dog in thier prime, miss these guys together
I'M NOT GETTING ANY YOUNGER!!!!!!! I'M NOT AS OLD AS MIKE, BUT I'M NOT GETTING ANY YOUNGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man I wish they get back together. Just give us 3 years guys.
Bob Valentine doesn't know his ass from his elbow.
Not as bad as how us Cubs fans felt that year.
Alex Patt YOU GOT YOURS NOW💪🏻💪🏻 IMA A 30 YEAR OLD MET FAN WITH ZERO
@@itizwhatitiz9 30 years? Talk to an Indians fan whose team hasn’t won a championship in 73 years (and who lost two World Series Game 7s in extra innings in the last 25 years alone).
The best sports radio team ever in history.
Maddog made the show
