Gio is officially checking out of the Knicks right now. They have so many injuries and keep losing. Gio said he can never be happy as a NY sports fan. Boomer said they just have to hang on until the playoffs when they should have their injured players back. Gio said all this injury crap started last year with Edwin Diaz and Aaron Judge. Then Max Scherzer and Justin Verlander. Then Aaron Rodgers and Daniel Jones for our football teams. And now the injuries are killing the Knicks. Evan Roberts has a book called, ‘My Mets Bible’, and we discussed it. Jerry is here for his first update and starts with the sounds from last night’s Knicks loss. Charles Barkley joined Instagram even though he said he would never go on social media. Tylor Megill is working on a ‘spork-ball’. Jerry has audio of Bob Costas from his old show, Later, with Richard Lewis as a guest. Costas was over the top laughing at things that weren’t even funny. In the final segment of the hour, a new hero emerges at the congestion pricing public hearing.
Gio was watching some of the NFL combine yesterday. Caleb Williams showed up at the combine but declined medical evaluation. Gio wonders why Phil Simms isn’t there as he likes to evaluate QBs by grabbing at their lower halves. We also talked about the NFL touchback rule with a ball that’s fumbled out of the endzone. Boomer doesn’t like the rule but it doesn’t seem like it’s going anywhere anytime soon. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the Warriors beating the Knicks. Snoop Dogg went down his list of top NBA players in the league right now. Gio would love to see Snoop doing NBA coverage on TNT. Peter King had Boomer number 2 on his all time favorite QBs to deal with in his career. Peyton Manning was number 1. In the final segment of the hour, Shaun Morash told a terrible ‘dad joke’ yesterday. We also thumbed through Evan’s new book, ‘My Mets Bible’. One of the games involved Gio in L.A. and the Ryan Church game. There was a Vin Scully story involving the word ‘penis’.
We talked about the Patriots documentary series on AppleTV+ called ‘Dynasty’. It covers everything from Tom Brady/Drew Brees, spygate and deflategate. Jerry Jones will have to take a paternity test after a 26 year old woman claims he is her father. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the Knicks losing to the Warriors. There’s also a story of Pat Riley taking all of the cookies off the plane and ticking off LeBron James back in the day. WGN anchor claims to be the original ‘penis pioneer’ although Al Dukes believes he is. A woman proposes to a man on Australian TV. In the final segment of the hour, Shohei Ohtani got married. He said she’s ‘a normal Japanese woman’.
Boomer is loving QB Michael Penix Jr. Gio said if you are a GM and head coach, and you go down in flames, you want to go down with a QB you picked. Boomer said the combine is where GMs start ‘to fall in love with all of these players’. We took a few calls from guys that work for the MTA complaining about working there and how congestion pricing is a scam. Jerry returns for an update but first there were some students in with Eddie and Al during the break and Eddie gave them career advice. Jerry starts with the Knicks losing again, this time to the Warriors. Xavier McKinney was on the Pat Leonard podcast and talked about wanting to stay with the Giants his entire career. QB Drake Maye talked about meeting with the Giants. JJ McCarthy also met with the Giants and talked about presenting them plays on what he would do in certain situations. Gio remembers being screened for scoliosis in grade school and how odd that situation was. The Moment of The Day involves Jerry Jones having to take a paternity test. In the final segment of the show, we talked more about being checked for scoliosis and for lice. Gio had a dream he had to kill BT because he turned into a zombie.
