Don Imus and Sid Rosenberg, speaking Thursday during “Imus in the Morning” on WABC 770 AM, took shots at both WFAN personalities on 660 AM /101.9 FM. Craig Carton was arrested Wednesday by the FBI for his alleged involvement in a ticket scam.
Rosenberg opened a segment dedicated to sports news of the day by mentioning the Patriots and Chiefs begin the NFL season Thursday night.
“What’s the point spread on that?” Imus asked.
“Just in case Carton is listening,” Bernard McGuirk, Imus’ producer, quipped.
While they were discussing the nature of Carton’s alleged crimes, Imus provided a morbid observation.
“He’s going to get whacked,” Imus said.
Rosenberg proceeded to talk about what he sees as Carton’s gambling addiction, and mentioned Imus’ recovery from alcohol and drug addiction. He said Imus could appreciate Carton’s plight.
“Well, I don’t,” Imus said. “I should have stopped drinking and doing cocaine when someone first mentioned it me. But I was an a–hole, wasn’t I?”
Later in the show, they decided to replay Francesa’s comments about Carton’s situation.
“Is English a foreign language for him?” Imus asked after Francesa’s meandering non-statement about WFAN’s statement ended.
