Meanwhile, Mike & the Mad Dog, who worked together for 19 years on WFAN up until 2008, have been nominated for induction into the National Radio Hall of Fame. Public voting began Monday and runs through June 30.

"Obviously, it would be a great honor," Francesa said on his show earlier this week. "You guys, all of you out there, are the reason why we have been doing this as long as we have, why we've had the careers that we've had, why we've had the success we have, we're very appreciative for the support."

The duo will also be featured in an upcoming ESPN "30 for 30" documentary. Francesa said that is on track to air in February.
