  • An Airing of Jets Grievances

    The Jets are 0-3 and have looked completely miserable in the process. Today’s pod is real simple, it is a Jets Airing of Grievances. Frank Costanza created Festivus to air familial grievances, we have this podcast to air our Jets Grievances. Friends of the pod, James Arnone, Lance Kravitz and Travis Williams join us, as we spend a lot of time complaining about the Jets and trying to see if there are any silver linings with this team after the 0-3 start (2:40). We also make Week 4 NFL Picks (49:14).

  • A Jets Opening Week Player Profile: Breaking Down Starting Rookie Linebacker Hamsah Nasirildeen with Max Moody of the "Locked on Seminoles" Podcast

    Another season of Jets Football begins on Sunday, and when you look at the Jets 22 starters, the most surprising name on that list may be their rookie 6th round linebacker out of Florida State, Hamsah Nasirildeen. Our guest on today’s pod (0:26), is Max Moody, one of the Hosts of the “Locked on Seminoles” Podcast. Max is a diehard Florida State Seminoles fan who watches their games closer than anyone, and he is going to tell you why he feels that Hamsah Nasirildeen was the steal of the 2021 draft, and is going to be a star for the Jets (11:45). Max also tells us why former FSU star and current Jet starter Lamarcus Joyner may turn it around this year, as well as give his insight on the bevy of young players he watched in the ACC that are now New York Jets. At the top of the pod, we put Max in the Tortured Fan Corner, and at the end of the pod we make our Week 1 NFL Picks (38:47). We had a great time discussing Hamsah Nasirildeen and some of the other young talent on the Jets, this is a pod that will definitely get you excited for the Jets season beginning Sunday.

    Max Moody hosts “Locked on Seminoles”, part of the “Locked On” podcast network. You can follow him on Twitter @NolesAnonymous and subscribe to his pod, wherever you get your podcasts!

  • 2021 Jets Fantasy Football Preview

    Get excited Jets fans, football is back, and maybe you'll even have a Jet on your Fantasy Team!  Okay, maybe having a Jet on your fantasy team is not the best idea, but on today's pod (2:12), we are going to break down all of the key Jets offensive skill players anyway and let you know if they are worth drafting in your fantasy league.  

    Before we break down Zach Wilson, Corey Davis, Elijah Moore and the rest of the Jets offensive skill position players (14:45), we touch on the unfortunate injury to Carl Lawson (0:01), and while this may be a Jets pod, (since it is basically over) we felt compelled to vent and put the 2021 Mets season to bed (3:28).

  • Happy Anniversary to Us! Looking ahead with a 2024 Mount Rushmore Draft

    Happy Anniversary to us!  That's right, the "Born in '87" pod has just celebrated its 1 year anniversary!  To celebrate we are looking ahead to the future with our most frequent guest from our first year of podcasting, Travis Williams.  On today's pod, Justin, Adam and Travis are doing a Mount Rushmore draft of who we each think will be the most important Mets, Jets and Knicks in 2024 (1:00).  We had a lot of fun recording this and trying to figure out which members of the wonderful organizations we root for, deserved to be drafted.

    As we celebrate 1 year of podcasting, we want to thank all the fans who have checked us out over the past year!

  • Mets 2nd Half Preview

    The first half of baseball season is in the books and the 2nd half starts this Friday.  Despite all the injuries, the Mets ended the first half with a 3.5 game lead in the NL East.  Do we feel good about that?  I guess you'll have to listen to find out!  On this pod we discuss we liked and didn't like about the first half, and what we are both excited and not excited for in the 2nd half.  We also make our big 2nd half predictions.  #LGM #LFGM #METS

  • The Great Mike Maccagnan Deep Dive with Lance Kravitz - Part 2

    If you enjoyed Part 1 of our Mike Maccagnan Deep Dive, here is Part 2!  Part 2 picks up right where Part 1 left off (1:28), as we begin the pod talking about Maccagnan's performance in 2018.  If you are thinking, how come Part 1 covered 2015, 16 and 17?  And Part 2 only covers 2018 and 2019, well, that is because there is A LOT to unpack from Mikey Mac's final two years as Jets GM.  If you're as much of a self-deprecating Jets fan as Justin, Adam and Lance are, then you will definitely enjoy Part 2 of our Mike Maccagnan Deep Dive!

  • The Great Mike Maccagnan Deep Dive with Lance Kravitz - Part 1
    We’re back! On today’s edition of the “Born in ‘87” podcast, we are going to do something we have wanted to do for a long time. Lance Kravitz returns to the pod for the Great Mike Maccagnan Deep Dive (1:48). The Jets have been inept for years and currently have the longest playoff drought in the NFL, if you want to find the main culprit for that, look no further than the man who was the Jets General Manager from 2015-2019.  In fact, unpacking this man’s ineptitude took so long, we ended up having to split up our deep dive into two parts! Here on Part 1 of the Great Mike Maccagnan Deep Dive, we break down his roster moves from 2015-2017. If you love crapping on Mike Maccagnan, you will definitely enjoy this pod.

    Look out for Part 2 of the Great Mike Maccagnan Deep Dive, which will be released in a few days. On Part 2, we will cover Mike Maccagnan’s performance in 2018 and 2019.

  • A Postmortem of the Knicks 2020-21 Season

    The Knicks season ended two weeks ago, and the Born in 87 guys are ready to give you a postmortem for their 2020-2021 season (0:50). This pod was recorded about a week ago, however we stand by the takes on this pod. We review everything about this season, the highs of the regular season, the disappointment of the playoff loss to Atlanta, and we discuss what major moves we think the Knicks may need to make going into the 2021-22 season. Adam also shares his highly controversial take that this season where the Knicks came out of nowhere to grab the #4 seed in the East, may not have been worth it!
