He's always been the most universally liked guys among people around the Mets

and I can only remember one person called him Horrorwitz but that was a lifetime

ago I guess. Congrats and well-deserved.

He gave me Endy Chavez' phone number. Good egg.

Called Jay an anti-Semitic Semite.

Who did such a thing? And when? And why? Jay's a cuddly bear.

There were some stories a few years ago that portrayed him as a nightmare boss. There's probably a discussion of this buried somewhere in our archives.

Re: This Box is Jay’s House

A guy at the old forum was a little bitter that he interviewed for a job with the Mets' press office as a young man, and when asked if he could be available 24-7, he was all "Sure, except for the Shabbos," and he apparently got something less than a high-five from Jay.



I don't know if that answer is really what kept him from getting the job, but he saw it that way.

Huh. Guess he wanted Jay to reschedule Friday night and Saturday afternoon games for his convenience.

Howie's skill set may be even more suitable for these emcee gigs than for his radio job — and he's pretty wonderful at the latter.
