Hour 1

Gio thinks today will be a huge day in NFL coaching circles. Nick Sirianni or Mike McCarthy will be out today, maybe both of them. He also thinks Bill Belichick will make a decision by tomorrow. Boomer said teams need to be built more like Green Bay and San Francisco. Nick Sirianni is meeting with ownership today, so something could definitely happen there as they completely collapsed at the end of the season and lost in the playoffs to Todd Bowles. Mike Tomlin told his players that he’ll be back, but Boomer said he needs a contract extension in the offseason. Boomer is looking forward to seeing Lamar Jackson on the field this weekend. He thinks he’s matured and different this season. And he’s here to break up the Mahomes/Allen party. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and starts with a reporter asking Todd Bowles how he’s preparing his players for the cold weather they’ll face in Detroit. Kyle Shanahan talked about prepping for the Packers during the second quarter of the Packers/Cowboys game. Mike Francesa wonders if Mike Tomlin might want to take a year off and ‘decompose’. Woops. Jerry went around the NHL and NBA last night. And St. Johns got blown out by Seton Hall. Jerry has audio from a minor league hockey game and we wonder if it’s fake. In the final segment of the hour, C-Mac kept using the phrase ‘in the elk of’ when comparing Daniel Jones to other quarterbacks. He meant ‘ilk’. The NFL ratings are in from Wild Card Weekend and the Monday afternoon game was huge. We talked about the ratings for the Peacock game, according to Peacock of course. 

Hour 2

Both Bill Belichick ad Jim Harbaugh have interviewed with the Atlanta Falcons. Gio would take Harbaugh over Belichick. Gio said Belichick has had some bad years and hired ‘two buffoons’ to run his offense. Justin Herbert needs a coach like either of these guys. Gio said he wouldn’t hire Belichick unless he had a QB in place already. Belichick to the Falcons feels like it would fail. Jerry does not return for an update. He has fallen ill during the show. Filling in for Jerry is Billy Giacalone. He has a hard time timing the audio and the stories. Jerry calls in from his ride home to describe his illness. Boomer gets the norovirus every year. This would be a bad time to get it as Boomer is ramping up for Super Bowl coverage. He is shooting a commercial with the caveman. In the final segment of the hour, Gio is reading a story about a mutant Covid strain that China is working on that has a 100% kill rate. 

Hour 3

We talked about Jerry going home with what seems like the Norovirus. We also talked about smelling salts that Baker Mayfield uses sometimes. Gio said he used to use them to help drive home when he’s sleepy. We also talked about golfers using Viagra and Cialis to help their golf game. TMZ reported that back in December, Colts owner Jim Irsay OD’d and was taken to a hospital and given a dose of Narcan. Billy Giacalone returns to do a Jerry update since he went home sick. Todd Bowles was asked how he is going to get his team ready to play in the cold weather in Detroit. Bowles tells the reporter they play in a dome there. Billy is no longer on dating apps. Gio said he was really bad at ice breakers when he was in the dating scene. In the final segment of the hour, Boomer is obsessed with pangolins in China carrying some sort of Covid disease. Boomer said it’s an election year, so anything is possible. A caller said to be careful with smelling salts because it kills brain cells. He also mentions a hockey trainer named Woodcock. There are 214 Woodcocks in the NYC white pages. 

Hour 4

Dan Wetzel of Yahoo Sports is reporting that Jim Harbaugh wants language in his contract if he stays at Michigan that makes it so they can’t fire him if more NCAA sanctions come down. The Chargers have to get either Harbaugh or Bill Belichick. Gio said Coach Cowher did it wrong by retiring from coaching but living in NYC instead of a place like Miami. A caller wonders if Harbaugh will draft JJ McCarthy. Billy Giacalone is back to fill in for Jerry who went home sick. We talked about Billy’s hair tattoo. It looks great, but he said it did hurt when he did it. The Moment of The Day involves Mike Tomlin, Mike Francesa and ‘decomposing’ coaches. In the final segment of the show, Boomer thinks Gio has some scuttlebutt but won’t say anything yet. We also talked about bad last names to have, including ‘Grewcock’ and ‘Growcock’. Why wouldn’t those families change their names? Gio went to school with a ‘Champagne Smith’. That’s a cool name.
