Hour 1
The Knicks absolutely blew out the Denver Nuggets last night at the Garden. We talked about Jalen Brunson and OG Anunoby’s performance. It’s also NFL Championship weekend and the Ravens may get TE Mark Andrews back. If the Knicks are going to do damage this year, Julius Randle is going to have to be as good in the playoffs as he is in the regular season and we haven’t seen that from him yet. But Gio has faith in him this year. He has been phenomenal. The Falcons hired Raheem Morris, so it looks like Bill Belichick will not coach in 2024. Bill Cowher thinks that maybe NFL owners think Belichik is coaching to get the all time winning record and not to win another Super Bowl. Boomer also talked about why it’s hard to hire a guy like Belichick. This opens the door for Belichick to the Giants if Brian Daboll and the Giants don’t have a good year. Right now, the Giants don’t have any weapons, especially if Saquon leaves. Daniel Jones will not be ready at the start of the season, so what is their plan at QB? Jerry is here for his first update of the day and starts with the sounds of the Knicks dominating the Nuggets. Charles Barkley thinks Jalen Brunson should be starting in the All Star Game over Damian Lillard. Kayvon Thibodeaux was on Carmelo Anthony’s podcast and said he thought Saquon should have been paid before Daniel Jones. Patrick Mahomes Sr was on with Evan and Tiki yesterday and he said he was not in the box with Taylor Swift. Everyone thought it was him but he was in a different box. In the final segment of the hour, Boomer is heading to Vegas next week to shoot his NFL Greatest Super Bowl Commercials TV show. We also talked about golf courses only wanting us in Vegas if Boomer is playing. If Gio doesn’t golf out there, what is he supposed to do? Eat, drink and gamble for 9 days?
Hour 2
The Carolina Panthers have hired Dave Canales as their new head coach. He was the Bucs offensive coordinator. Gio said the only way he got that job was because nobody else wanted it. Boomer wonders what’s going on with Colts owner Jim Irsay. We haven’t heard anything about him since hearing he was administered Narcan back in December. We also talked about the Oscars, Barbie and Oppenheimer. Gio did impressions of Mike Francesa with a message for Margot Robbie. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the sounds of the Knicks dominating the Nuggets last night at MSG. Jerry previewed the NFL Championship games. Fans at the Red Wings game were chanting Jared Goff’s name. In the final segment of the hour, Boomer & Bill Cowher were driving around Long Island yesterday and Boomer took him to where the Gilgo Beach killer dumped the bodies. Later in the day they talked to the guy who is prosecuting him. What would it be like for Bill Cowher to ride the subway?
Hour 3
Both Bill Belichick and Mike Vrabel look like they are not going to be coaching in 2024. Belichick could be on the Giants radar if Brian Daboll has a bad year. We also talked about NFL owners having no patience these days. It looks like lots of rain in Baltimore for Sunday’s championship game. Boomer wonders why Al got tickets for the Sphere without going through the hotel concierge. Al has no idea how to handle concierges. Jerry is here for an update but first Boomer found something for us to do in Vegas: drive tanks. A concierge calls in to tell us how you should always use one and they don’t have the word ‘no’ in their vocabulary. Jerry has audio from Andrew ‘Dice’ Clay’s interview on BT & Sal yesterday. BT made an unfortunate joke that made us all uncomfortable. In the final segment of the hour, new Panthers head coach Dave Canales is on Twitter and Gio said it’s time for him to get off.
Hour 4
This is the last real week of football before the insanity starts in Vegas. Gio doesn’t want the Chiefs in the Super Bowl. Mahomes has won enough and he doesn’t want to see Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift. He is ‘Chiefs’ out’. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the Knicks clobbering the Nuggets at MSG last night. Carmelo Anthony thought Phil Jackson was a great coach despite his tenure with the Knicks. He also liked the triangle but said the younger players weren’t catching on. The Moment of The Day has Gio agasp as Boomer said, ‘maybe we don’t bring the golf clubs’ to Vegas. In the final segment of the show, our NFL Championship game picks, with Yussef!
