Boomer & Gio are in the studio this morning after spending days at Giants and Jets camp. We may have put the maloik on Aaron Rodgers as he did not have a good day of practice after talking to us in the morning. Last night was episode 2 of Hard Knocks and there was a mentalist/magician guy there named Oz Pearlman who did a cool trick with Aaron Rodgers. Rob Saleh did rip into the offensive line in last night’s episode for their poor performance in practice against the Panthers. The Colts and the Panthers have both named their rookie QBs as starters so they get all the first team reps. We also talked about the Jets adding Dalvin Cook and how that could elevate the entire RB room. Jerry is here with his first update of the day and starts with audio from Rob Saleh from last night’s Hard Knocks ripping into the offensive line. We also heard Joe Benigno’s ‘how bout that’ to the New York Jets’ players at camp. Anthony Richardson talked about being named starting QB for the Colts. Gardner Minshew said he understands why Richardson was named starter. Al Michaels talked about having low energy for crappy games. The Yankees were shut out by the Braves and only managed 1-hit. Luis Severino had another bad outing, giving up a 3-run HR in the first. Jordan Montgomery had a good start for the Rangers. In the final segment of the hour, baseball is now dead in NY as the Yankees have hit .500 and will no doubt fall below soon. It’s time now to shut Aaron Judge down instead of running him out there with that bad toe in meaningless games.
Gio is sick of Mets fans saying they ‘won 101 games last year’ as some sort of defense of Steve Cohen. We took calls from furious Yankees fans. Boomer tells the story of his friend, Ziggy, who had a thumb reattached in order to hold a football better at Syracuse. Jerry returns for an update and starts with audio from last night’s Hard Knocks. Quinnen Williams’ money was the subject of conversation between Rob Saleh and Woody Johnson. Brandon Tierney accidently said ‘penis’ instead of ‘peanuts’ when discussing the paychecks in the Jets RB room. Daniel Jones talked about why he doesn’t want to be on ‘Quarterback’. Marc Malusis is on vacation with his family and things seem to be going well. Jerry has audio from Moose. The Yankees were shut out by the Braves and only got one hit. The Dodgers keep winning out West. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about the Jets offensive line and their struggles so far in camp and preseason games.
Let’s go through the list of Head Coaches most likely to be fired this season. A caller wants JPP back on the Giants. Jerry returns for an update and starts with audio from the mentalist that was on Hard Knocks with the Jets last night. Joe Benigno was with Evan at Jets camp and we played some of Joe’s ‘how bout that’. Shaun Morash asked Rob Saleh about the crow and eagle analogy. Joe B is confused as you might guess. Gio as Joe B worried that China now has the Jets’ plays now that Saleh is scrolling through TikTok. The Yankees got only 1-hit and were shutout by the Braves. Aaron Judge talked about being .500 in mid-August. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about Aaron Rodgers not wanting to play around with us on the air. He was a tough nut to crack.
Last night was episode 2 of Hard Knocks and we got to see Rob Saleh ripping into the offensive line. Gio was asking Boomer about who is calling the plays on the offense now for the Jets. Jerry returns for an update but first Eddie Scozzare calls us live from Iceland with his tour guide. This leads to a long impression of Gio as Eddie in Iceland. Jerry has audio from last night’s Hard Knocks episode. It’s a conversation between Rob Saleh and Quinnen Williams. ‘Our style was all over this bitch yesterday’- Saleh on the defense. He was not happy with the play of the offensive line. Williams became a star on last night’s episode. Joe Benigno’s ‘how bout that’ to the Jets players during interviews from camp. In the final segment of the show, someone at The Big Lead thought Gio’s impression of Joe Benigno was really Joe and he thought the Chinese were getting all of the Jets plays because Rob Saleh scrolls TikTok.
