Bob Du Puy talks down to Chris Russo on WFAN

Chris Russo talks to individual fans in any time zone more than most sportstalk guys I've heard. He appreciates what a fan goes through, has written books, been on national television shows, and his radio show is simulcast on a national tv network (YES).

• Bob du Puy is a guest today on WFAN with Mike and Chris, the universal topic of the very late tv starts of some of the games is raised by Chris. It's not a new topic, and we know MLB, Inc. will come up with an answer for everything without providing concrete substantiation and no one will complain.

Also, MLB, Inc.'s first job is always to scorn New Yorkers (rallying public support for hatred and resentment and getting more of their money--it works).

• Chris: Bob, how about those late starts?

Du Puy: (Voice dripping with condescension) Well, Chris, believe it or not.....people do live west of the Hudson.....and they like to see their teams....

• (Bob ignores that Chris and Mike and everyone else have talked about the problem even as it relates to teams in western time zones...)

Additionally insulting to Chris, his team is THE SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS. BELIEVE IT OR NOT, BOB, THAT'S A TEAM IN CALIFORNIA,....

• WHICH IS WEST OF THE HUDSON.
