Mute Math Band Roadies Fool Mike & Mike

ESPN Radio's Mike Golic and Mike Greenberg, hosts of the morning drive radio show Mike and Mike In The Morning, Tuesday appeared on CBS' The Late Show with David Letterman.

Backstage before their appearance, roadies from the band Mute Math told Golic and Greenberg they were members of the band and asked to take pictures with the two, Golic and Greenberg said on their radio show Wednesday.

When the band came out to play on stage, Golic and Greenberg said no one on the stage resembled the guys who asked for pictures before the show, adding that they must have been fooled by a few of their roadies.

Like College Football, A Disappointing End?

Stars React to 'Sopranos' Finale

On ESPN Radio and ESPN2's Mike and Mike in the Morning Monday, Mike Greenberg noted that Sunday's final episode of HBO's "The Sopranos" was similar to the end of a college football season in the way it leaves fans questioning what could have been.

Mike Golic quickly refuted his partner's comments, saying it was much different from the Bowl Championship season because with college football, there is always another season beginning about nine month later.

In Sunday's 'Sopranos,' Tony didn't get whacked as many expected. Rather, the show's writers left the conclusion of the series open for its viewers.
