Mad Dog Moments...Top 10 Chris Russo Moments

(Haber, Chris Russo, and Myself enjoying an "Out...OUT" pose...Notice our hands)

This is something I thought of the other day and decided to post. For those of you who dont know who Chris "Mad Dog" Russo is, he is...was, part of the greatest radio show in history outside of Howard Stern, the Mike and the Mad Dog show on WFAN. Of course, they broke up about a year ago, and Mike Francesca has gone to on to host his own show on WFAN and such.  I have decided to honor the legendary Russo with posts that I call "Mad Dog moments." I will hand pick a bunch of videos I think are classics and post them on this blog.

My favorite story in the whole world from Mike and Chris was "The Marquee" a segment during every Super Bowl week, where Russo would dress up like a 18th century French marquee and ask three IMPOSSIBLE Super Bowl questions. Anyone who got all three questions right would win Super Bowl tickets. The questions could range from "who has the most career Super Bowl Touchdowns" to "What was the result of the 15th play called in Super Bowl VII." It lasted a week long, or until a few people actually got all the questions right, and was BY FAR AND AWAY the best shows they ever did.

Anyway, my moment was when the Giants shocked the world and won the NFC to go to Super Bowl XLII against the Pats. About seven of us sat in front of the TV and looked up every single questions and tried calling once every five seconds. 

Without further ado, here is the # 10 Greatest Chris Russo moment of all-time.
