The New York State Broadcasters Hall of Fame hasn't been sleeping on Mike Francesa's accomplishments.
Francesa, the well-known, much-mimicked and sometimes controversial voice of WFAN's "Mike's On" has been selected for induction into the Hall at a ceremony to be held on June 13.
"I'm humbled and excited to be recognized by the New York State Broadcasters Association," Francesa said in a statement. "It is a great honor, and anything with New York attached to it means all the more to me."
Joining Francesa as inductees are John Cooper, Nancy Duffy, Marty Glickman, Marvin Scott and Chris Musial.
