Popular Post TuscanyTile2 Posted August 23, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 23, 2018 He's charging $8.99 per month for his app. Is anyone here going to pay that? I think this app will be a total flop and it will be hilarious. https://nypost.com/2018/08/23/mike-francesa-unveils-app-and-its-jaw-dropping-price/ 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said his Sunday NFL show will be exclusive to the app. And he keeps talking about "immediacy" which I take to mean he'll be available on the app after games.

Popular Post Larz Posted August 23, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 23, 2018 Watch him intentionally withhold things from the free broadcast to make the app worth it "and that concludes my interview with Mike Maccagnan about the possible trade, for more go to my app" It has to be right? It will get pirated in minutes lol 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will get pirated in minutes lol Absolutely right on all counts. I think he also thinks that with gambling legalized that people will value his NFL picks. He did do well last year with that (and wouldn't stop crowing about it) but I'm pretty sure he had a lucky season and generally is just as bad as anyone at this stuff. But I'm guessing he will try to use it as a selling point. Of course, just like you mentioned about "it will get pirated in minutes", the same will happen with his picks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

#27TheDominator Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 I post this most times I post in a Francesa thread, but I don't mind that he mispronounces his own name (or sources) but his inability to say baccala really pissed me off. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TuscanyTile2 Posted August 23, 2018 Author Share Posted August 23, 2018 Francesa just was asked about the app. He said: There will be a 3 1/2 hour video simulcast of his daily WFAN radio show He said there will be a game where you can watch live with Mike and he'll do commentary while the game is on. (not sure if interactive). I'm not sure if this will be a regular thing. Shared links to other sites (whatever that means. He said he'll reveal more in time). He'll come on before and after games and sometimes even during games. He'll have other people do shows. He said he wants to try to develop some new voices (John Jastremski will one of the hosts.) Handicapping corner (Brad Thomas will give horse racing picks which he said was worth the price of admission alone) Sunday football show from 9A-noon. College football Saturday show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HessStation Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 How does this app get more than like, 1000 total subscribers? Like, I know it’s gonna be over that and I know I’m going to be completely dumbfounded, but wtf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd pay money for that. This is a good idea. KRL with camp updates. Maxman with pre and post game shows from his madden cruiser from outside the stadium. "The Slats and Sperm Show". I'm not sure what this one will be about but the title alone will draw in viewers. Using the revenue from the app, pay Crusher to go to all the road games so he can do his version of "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives" (NFL stadiums edition). Kelly will do a weekly game recap using BBT gifs. And if she turns out to be female, we can expand her role to maybe announce the "post of the week" winner. The JetNation "locked thread of the week" discussion. Bombdirt can do a regular feature on cheerleaders. Gastineau Lives can do a non-sports related show where he reviews TV and movies. We can have a couple of "filler" segments like "Glennon The Foe" (where Villain breaks down Mike Glennon footage) and a SAR I call-in show where he debates callers about the merits of PSLs. And every episode will close with Tom Shane doing an Andy Rooney-esque humorous segment on sports. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Harper Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 I have a love/hate with the fat guy. I listened to him and Russo for years but he is a bit too much by himself. His arrogance is just unfettered. And even though I occasionally still listen there is no way in hell I would pay 9 bucks a month for the privilege. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanadienJetsFan Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 9 bucks a month (converted to cdn, that's like $100, lol) All joking aside, other than Sunday morning football show, I don't see the value Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoJoTownsell1 Posted August 24, 2018 Share Posted August 24, 2018 How soon before it goes from 9.99 a month to 4.99 month to a can of diet coke a month? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a good question. That seems to be the general prediction. Then again, the NY Post mentioned that if he gets 10K subscribers for that yearly price, that's $1M in revenue. Does he have 10K fans that are THAT loyal to him (and don't mind spending $100 per year on him)? I'm still guessing no but I guess we'll see.
