"This controversial armchair quarterback says he benched himself.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie on Sunday disputed a report that New York sports radio station WFAN removed him as a candidate to replace iconic host Mike Francesa.

The governor, who has filled in at the station and was known to be in line for a possible full-time gig, told outlets in a statement that he was the one who pulled the plug on his jock-talk prospects.
