Boomer is in L.A. filming ‘Super Bowl's Greatest Commercials’ so Jerry is in for him. Gio said he is over the NFL at this point. He’s already sick of the Super Bowl storylines. He blames the Championship Weekend for feeling this way. Gio said twice this year he thought the officials wanted a team to win. C-Lo is in for Jerry today as Jerry is hosting. He starts with the Nets beating the Lakers. There was no KD, Ben Simmons, LeBron or Anthony Davis. Kyrie talked about LeBron still dominating. We also talked about LeBron’s flop over the weekend and James Harden trying to sneak on the floor from the bench. Brock Purdy has a torn UCL elbow ligament. Kellen Moore, let go by the Cowboys, heads to the Chargers as OC. Germaine Pratt apologizes for calling out Joseph Ossai. In the final segment of the hour, Micah Parsons wants the Eagles to win a Super Bowl for the division. Is Jerry the Cowboys fan happy about that?
We talked about the Raiders ‘squatting’ on Derek Carr and how that could screw up the Jets plans with Aaron Rodgers going forward. Would the Raiders trade him to an AFC team? Jerry thinks they’re done with him and they won’t care where they trade him. Gio doesn’t think Rodgers would be comfortable on the East Coast with the Jets since he’s a West Coast guy. If Rodgers has the option of the Jets or the Raiders, Gio thinks he’s picking the Raiders. A caller said the Giants and Cowboys fans should root for the Eagles because they are in the division. Another caller calls in to call that caller a moron. C-Lo returns for an update and starts with the Nets beating the Lakers even though Kyrie was the only star that played. No LeBron, no Anthony Davis for the Lakers and no KD or Ben Simmons for the Nets. Jerry said Steph Curry is ruining the league by how good he is and how everybody tries to shoot like him. C-Lo plays audio of Pat Mahomes Sr saying he’s ‘smokin’ on a Joe Burrow’. Rex Ryan says what about Brady and Sean Payton to Washington. In the final segment of the hour, Jalen Hurts went to the Syracuse basketball game. Can you connect the dots to figure out why?
Last night the Lakers played in Brooklyn but LeBron did not play. Neither did Anthony Davis. As you can imagine, many fans were disappointed, including a caller who paid $1500 per ticket for him and his kid to go. Load management is a huge problem in the NBA. C-Lo returns for an update and starts with LeBron taking a rest day and not playing in Brooklyn last night, to the dismay of fans who paid big bucks for tix. Travis Kelce hugged his dad after the game and he was mic’d up. MLB The Show will have Jazz Chisholm as their cover athlete. Justin Verlander won Most Valuable Pitcher but they spelled ‘valuable’ wrong on the plaque. In the final segment of the hour, Boomer’s stay at the Kansas City station rubbed some hosts there the wrong way.
Boomer was a guest at our stations in Kansas City on Monday and the local hosts were not happy with how their boss kissed Boomer’s butt. C-Lo returns for an update and starts with the Nets beating the Lakers without LeBron and Anthony Davis. Brock Purdy has a torn UCL in his elbow and will be out 6 months. In the final segment of the show, Gio tells a story of a fan who went to see Steph Curry play but he didn’t play that day. Curry sent the girl a huge box of Under Armor stuff. Players should only be able to take rest days at home, and not on the road where you disappoint fans the one time they get to see you.
