I'm gathering that he's Irish by heritage and college affiliation, rather than birth. I miss Guys! This guy is like... Cookie O'Guys!

These guys with Irish first names who weren't even born in Ireland are such poseurs.

From what I have seen he is rather annoying , although the times I have seen him it has been on SNY where he does a counter point with not Carlin, the other annoying guy so it may be it's the format, the format where they scream their points.

That would be Marc Malusis, who like Carlin is a Francesa lickspittle that inexplicably keeps getting sports broadcasting gigs.
