The Michael Kay Show on ESPN Radio in New York is known as the other show hosted by a man named “Michael” in the Big Apple, the other being the Mike Francesa Show on WFAN.
Kay’s show is normally behind Francesa in the ratings, but has the benefit of being simulcast on YES Network.
The cast of characters on the show include Kay who also calls the New York Yankees on YES, co-host Don Lagreca, producer Andy Gundling and Peter Rosenberg. They recently got into a discussion about taking holidays off and whether they’re heavily or casually religious.
Glenn Garcia, a freelance animator with the Twitter account Animating Sports, decided to make the segment into a cartoon complete with Lagreca changing from being Santa to the Easter Bunny and it was hilarious. Take a look:
It’s one of several funny efforts that have been made including this one about the Thanksgiving holiday:
These segments are hilarious. Now if we could have Animating Sports bring a Mike Francesa rant into a cartoon, that would truly be animation gold.
