We had another brutally boring football game last night between the Vikings and Bears. Boomer said it’s because there have been 50 different starting quarterbacks this year. Even though we have been complaining about how bad the product has been, we are still watching. There’s also a lack of hitting in practice which leads to poor play in the games. Boomer also said the majority of players coming in from college are not prepared for the pro game, particularly at quarterback. Even Patrick Mahomes sat for a year before he played. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and starts with sound from last night’s boring Monday night game. Rex Ryan said Brandon Staley should go back to Division III football. Gio wonders what Bill Cowher does with his free time and imagines him out clubbing in NYC. Joe Schoen talked to the media and didn’t say much. Bill Simmons had a strange way to describe the Eagles season thus far. It involves Milton Berle. In the final segment of the hour, the Mets hired Scott Havens as President of Business Operations. They are going to try and build a casino over by Citi Field.
Giants GM Joe Schoen met the media and he was asked so many questions about the draft even though they are still ‘in the hunt’ and the draft is so far away. He was also questioned about allowing Leonard Williams to decide if he wanted to go to Seattle. How involved should NFL owners be in the job of the GM? A caller doesn’t like the way the media is portraying Italians when it comes to Tommy DeVito. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the Vikings announcers reacting to the loss to the Bears. Joe Schoen met the media and said Daniel Jones is the quarterback when he’s healthy but they still need another QB. Maggie Gray talked about Bills fans throwing dildos on the field and Jets fans changing T-I-*-S. Gio does a Jon Heyman impression. In the final segment of the hour, Sports Illustrated is being accused of using A-I to create fake authors and using fake headshots for the authors. Eddie found an old memo from Mark Chernoff back in 1999 about putting ‘Eat Me’ as the screen saver.
Would the Jets move on from Rob Saleh after this season? Probably not, because Aaron Rodgers seems to like him. Frank Reich was fired by the Panthers yesterday, the second straight year the Panthers fired a coach before he finished his first year. Callers wonder how Saleh survives after how bad he has been in his two years. A caller is upset at how Italians are being portrayed by the media with Tommy DeVito’s success. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the boring Vikings/Bears game from last night as Joe Buck and Troy Aikman were thankful when it ended. Russell Westbrook got into it with a fan last night and talked to the media about it after the game. Jerry ran into Tony Paige at the Rutgers basketball game last night. Sonny Gray signed with the Cardinals and Erik Kratz claimed Larry Rothschild was the reason he wasn’t good with the Yankees. In the final segment of the hour, we got a handwritten note from Luke, a young kid who came to visit us on the show a few weeks back. A caller who claims to be best friends with the DeVito family said it’s been a great ride for the family.
Gio’s wife can’t believe Al Roker has to do weather both in the morning and at night. Gio looked it up and he makes $10 million a year. Boomer wants a job like Jimbo Fisher, where he gets let go and still makes $76 million. Gio asked Al who’s running the NY Rangers and Al said, ‘Gunther’. A caller said Tommy DeVito saved the Giants season, at least making it watchable. Boomer was in the bathroom and heard somebody wipe three times and he thought it was a lot. Jerry returns for his final update of the day and Boomer reads what Chat GPT said about him. Jerry starts with the Bears beating the Vikings in a boring MNF game. Mike McDaniel met with reporters and had fun with someone about the offensive line. Gio is in a Twitter fight with someone named Zach Braziller of the NY Post. He has had enough of the schmucks attacking WFAN. He called them ‘soapbox media a-holes’. The Moment of The Day involves Maggie Gray getting ‘dumped out’ of her own show because of her salty language. In the final segment of the show, Boomer has his stat pack out with Bill Belichick info. We talked about Belichick’s future with the Patriots and where he might go.
