You know, when we tell our children Christmas stories every year, as we just did about a month ago,

you know, we always warn them about that nasty green goblin known as the Grinch, right?

Unfortunately, I'm in an interesting position today where I have to play the role of the Grinch.

You can't bring me down today, Craig.

I have to.

Today is a great day, Craig. You're not going to bring me down. It was great being on the air yesterday live. I think we were the first, not that it matters, to break the story that Stafansky was on his way to New Jersey. Then a lot of our eyes on the ground at Newark Airport confirmed that he was there, and you were very happy about that. and then, I don't know, 5, 36 o'clock, whatever was yesterday, when we got words that,

oh, my, at Newark Airport confirmed that he was there and you were very happy about that and then I don't know 5, 36 o'clock

And I'm telling you, one of those phenomenal chess players I've ever seen in my life. Toyed with me. Toyed with me. And I'm a grandmaster. A grand master.

Couldn't beat this guy. His name is Casey. Controlled two blocks, all drugs, and sits down until he got caught and, you know, right in his ways, okay? The other guy, and I've told this story before, was the guy that should be in the Baseball Hall of Fame, Albert Bell. All right? I come here today not to be a bad guy, not to be a Grinch, not to rain on your parade.

Oh, I'm a giant fan. Oh, the Giants are the best job out there. They are. The Giants are going to get Harbaugh. They certainly are. And then we hear the report today. I think it was Connor Hughes who added our buddy, who said that all of a sudden in less than 24 hours that yes your guy John Harbaugh has become the number one candidate for the head coaching job with the New York
