NOT to be confused with long-time NY sportswriter @markPherrmann!

[X - The Original DINOCOSTA @ThisIsDINOCOSTA]

Solving the #WFAN problem in one fell swoop.

Think about this.

Keep the morning program.

Put someone such as Scott Wetzel midays.

Then add a rejuvenated Mike Francesa, Chris Russo, and #DINOCOSTA - all with separate shows.

Think people would listen?

[Mark Herrmann @markpherrmann]

@Larry_Rocca Agreed

[Randy Oreens @ItBegins2012]

@PodThorn Cause nobody cares about the nets, and nets like it that way. They are a big market team with the media following of a small d3 college in Arkansas. The one time they did have aggressive media scary hours they freaked out cause they couldn’t handle bad press.

[7even @OnyxMcGrady]

Nets were so quick to cut bait with generational players like Harden, KD, Kyrie but they draw the line at Noah Clowney

[7even @OnyxMcGrady]

Remind you, this is the team the Nets put together after 4 years of tanking, 2 years of having the most cap space on the league, and having the most tradable FRP’s in the league.

Complete malpractice.

[Anthony Puccio @APOOCH]

2-7. Nets should feel a level of desperation. They've dropped 118 games in the prior two years, and Houston is holding their pick.

Rebuilding is one thing, compounding it with avoidable self-inflicted wounds is another. Young team and a long season, but you play to win the game

[Mark Herrmann @markpherrmann]

@TipOffDesk @Luigi__457 Then he gave it up on the other end.

[Sam Quinn @SamQuinnCBS]

The NBA tried something with these Cup courts. I give them points for trying. Half of them are such eyesores that I really struggle to actually watch the games. Tone them down next year. No more blood red. No more piss yellow.

[Mark Herrmann @markpherrmann]

@philpiv Probably not much chance, though, barring a sale of SNY.

[Mark Herrmann @markpherrmann]

Someone on another thread made a great point: SNY layoffs are related to the idea there probably won’t be baseball for quite a while. Maybe the shows will resume when the sport returns?

[John Harper @NYNJHarper]

Will always be grateful for 20 yrs doing TV that I never saw coming as long-time sportswriter. But it doesn't make today any easier, especially for the many talented colleagues at SNY more affected by the cutbacks than me. Most of all will miss the fun we had on and off the air.

[Peter Vecsey @PeterVecsey1]

Muddy Rivers is the most overrated coach in the profession’s history!!!

[Mark Herrmann @markpherrmann]

@DannyAbriano Good luck, Danny. Thank you for your work, which I enjoyed very much. Next chapter upcoming

[Mark Herrmann @markpherrmann]

In a word, a distinctly Mets word: Amazin

[Jay Horwitz @Jay_HorwitzPR]

Weeks after undergoing brain surgery, Ethan Wilson was back at Citi Field last Wednesday doing his job. https://t.co/5uV5d0UbiK

[New York Basketball @NBA_NewYork]

Mike Breen: "Julius Randle…5 years with Knicks, 3 All-Star teams, twice All-NBA, 2021 averaged 24-10-6 and 41% from 3…one of the great individual lines in Knicks history…He deserves credit for helping start the turnaround…Randle started the Knicks back on the success route"

[Mark Herrmann @markpherrmann]

And yet I’m listening to @ChrisCarrino and @TimCapstraw on the radio (while watching the TV feed). As a duo, they are terrific, informative and entertaining.

[Tom’s Old Days @sigg20]

[Mark Herrmann @markpherrmann]

And a good book it is!

[Steve Kettmann @SteveKettmann]

Congratulations to Sandy Alderson for being on the Hall of Fame ballot. I hope he gets in! (Along with Dusty and Boch) I wrote a whole book on why I think Alderson is an important figure in baseball all history. https://t.co/0PeIZSMCDb @Ken_Rosenthal @JasonLaCanfora @Denver4VA

[Brandon Tierney @BrandonTierney]

Hearty congratulations to a terrific young man and talented broadcaster. Love seeing good people rise--great addition!

[Mark Herrmann @markpherrmann]

Congrats. He did a great job

[YES Network @YESNetwork]

"It means everything."

@BerbariOnAir tells @Meghan_Triplett what it means to join the Nets on YES family.
