John Minko
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
John Minko is a "20/20 sports anchors" on radio station WFAN in New York and has worked there since its inception in 1987. Nicknamed "Coach" by his coworkers, Minko provides listeners with up-to-the-minute sports news, Sundays through Thursdays between the hours of 10am and 5pm. He has also, at times, been called the "Dean of Updates", a moniker in recognition of his seniority.
Minko appears with the Mike and the Mad Dog crew on the YES Network, available on many cable networks across the country and via Direct TV. Minko is often the butt of jokes made by Mike and Chris including false accusations of making critical remarks regarding other members of the radio station or claims that he has boasted about a personal achievement. He is also known for being the radio station's clock, making sure employees show up on time.
Since 2000, Minko has been the play-by-play voice of Army football on WABC 770 and WEPN. He also serves as the update person for Mike Francesa's nationally syndicated NFL Now show.
