The Mets lose their star player. They lose their star closer.
0:04
The Mets are in a bad spot right now.
0:12
I've never seen a Ranger team quick before the Olympics.
0:15
We're going to be looking at Aaron Judge and saying that he
0:17
can't win the big game, Michael Jordan said.
0:20
I played 82 games. You don't see the one doing
0:23
that, but Jack Hughes did. After getting his team knocked
0:25
down to play every single shift, he got back in the game.

2:26
Let's hit it. Welcome.
2:28
To the jungle we got. Fun and games.
2:35
Welcome. I'm trying to put Tiger Bomb on
2:37
this jungle's nuts. To the concrete jungle carousel.
2:49
All right, ladies and gentlemen, let's go.
2:52
Here it is concrete jungle carousel.
2:54
Speedy put on the music up in stream yard if you can not
2:59
through the back through the stream yard.
3:02
We talked about it here it is Knicks Nets concrete jungle
3:05
carousel. We've got it going right here
3:09
with the Knicks. We got a few rumors.
3:12
Thank you. Very good.
3:14
Kendrick Perkins. Remember the leader of those
3:18
Kevin Durant, James Harden, Russell Westbrook teams back in
3:22
those days? According to him, Let's get this
3:25
music just a little bit lower. Thank you very much.
3:28
He says that Jalen Brunson would be the greatest nick of all time
3:32
if they win a title. That is a fascinating statement.
3:37
Who said that? Kendrick Perkins, just a couple
3:41
of more Shaq believes believes they're going to breeze past
3:46
whoever they face in a sweep. And Kenny Smith and Charles
3:49
think it won't be a Kate walk. But the biggest thing is OG and
3:53
Ananobi is participating in a limited fashion and practice is
3:58
optimistic he'll be ready for game one.
4:00
But again, we don't know when that will be.
4:02
If it's only six games between the Cavs and Pistons, meaning
4:06
the Cavs win in six, that in a tomorrow night's game it'll be
4:09
Sunday. But if it's a 7 game series,
4:12
that series will start on Tuesday, giving OG a little more
4:16
rest. What do you think about that
4:17
statement by Perkins? First of all, I love I, I, I
4:20
don't love Kendrick Perkins, but I, I like how he is a Knick fan
4:24
and he's rooting for the Knicks and he's, he's got the Knicks
4:27
going all the way to the Finals. He had the Knicks going to the
4:29
Finals before the playoffs started.
4:31
So I like that about Kendrick Perkins, but I'm not going to
4:33
take his his advice on what the Knicks are going to be or if the
4:39
Knicks win a championship. Jalen Brunson.
4:41
Brunson goes down as the greatest basketball player or
4:43
the greatest nick of all time. He's not.
4:46
There's a lot of great Knicks. Patrick Ewing was a great nick.
4:49
He was also on a team that didn't have another superstar.
4:52
If you go back and you look at those Nick teams, there was
4:55
never another superstar. John Starks wasn't a superstar.
4:57
Xavier McDaniel wasn't a superstar.
4:59
Anthony Mason was a good player, he wasn't a superstar.
5:01
Charles Oakley wasn't a superstar.
5:03
There was no superstars on those 90 teams but Patrick Ewing.
5:07
Then we go to the 99 season when they had Sprewell.
5:10
Patrick Ewing was at the tail end of his career.
5:13
He wasn't the same player. He was hurt you.
5:15
You had Larry Johnson, you had Alan Houston, but it wasn't the
5:18
same Patrick Ewing. When Patrick Ewing was at the
5:21
top end of his game, they never had another superstar.
5:24
Could you imagine if, let's say, I don't know, Patrick Ewing had
5:30
Shaquille O'Neal playing with him?
5:31
I'm just giving him Anthony Hardaway.
5:34
Anthony Hardaway playing with him.
5:35
Anybody I can, I can't name anybody.
5:37
He had Kobe Bryant playing with him, Michael Jordan playing with
5:40
him, Scottie Pippen playing with him.
5:41
Does he win a championship? He does.
5:44
So I just gave you names. Elijah Wan, anybody playing with
5:47
Patrick Ewing, they win a championship.
5:50
You shake your head. If you had Patrick, you and
5:52
Elijah on on the same team in those days, two pigs like that
5:57
forget. It.
5:58
Forget it, forget it. I disagree with you, I mean.
6:02
Who they going to be? Will Chamberlain play with
6:05
Kareem a Joel Jabbar? Did he not?
6:07
He did. So to say that you can't win
6:10
with those two players, you absolutely can at the top end of
6:13
their game. So.
6:15
I'm just saying Charles Barkley, any one of those guys, if he had
6:19
any one of those guys, he wins the championship.
6:21
Now, as far as the Knicks winning against the Cavs or
6:25
Detroit, the Knicks match up better against the Cavs than
6:29
they do with Detroit. Detroit plays aggressive.
6:32
The Knicks don't like that aggressive game.
6:34
And it it it's a it's been a big problem all season long.
6:37
Now, that doesn't mean that Knicks can't beat Detroit and
6:39
can't beat them in six or five games.
6:41
They can. But I'd rather play the
6:43
Cavaliers because the Cavaliers are all offense and they don't
6:47
play enough defense when it goes up and down the court when
6:50
they're playing at full speed. James Harden don't play defense.
6:53
He don't, and half of the other guards that are on this team
6:57
don't play defense. Donna Donovan Mitchell does.
7:00
He is the only guard on this team that plays defense.
7:03
So I I think the Knicks win no matter who they play in the
7:06
Eastern Conference Finals. It only scares me that they've
7:09
been sitting out and just hanging out over the last couple
7:14
of days. You don't want to go into a game
7:16
or into a series called. That's the only thing that
7:18
worries me. OG and a no be healthy.
7:21
Not surprised. I think OG will be 100% when
7:24
when the series starts. So I I think the Knicks win in
7:27
five or six games against whoever they play.
7:30
Yeah, the way the Pistons have been playing recently, like you
7:32
could definitely look at a case of the Knicks really prepping
7:35
well, especially with Duran struggling as much as he has.
7:38
Mitchell Robinson, who played very well in the last series,
7:40
could definitely get more comfortable.
7:41
And obviously Carl Anthony Towns, if you get Duran in foul
7:43
trouble like he's been doing, could it definitely make a
7:46
difference? And OG and nobody gets a lot
7:47
more time to heal. That's going to help them if
7:48
they have to play the Cavs with Donovan Mitchell or the Pistons
7:51
with Kate Cunningham because they didn't have Kate, they
7:53
didn't have OG guard Cade as much last year as they probably
7:56
should have. They made the adjustment later
7:57
in the series. Remember, Cunningham has a
7:59
couple 30 point games against the Knicks when they played last
8:01
year. So I think that will help a lot
8:03
more. And I think the rest, it's
8:05
always going to help them more. I think it hurts more in hockey.
8:07
It's kind of neutral in baseball.
8:08
But I think in this kind of case with basketball, especially with
8:10
the way they're managing Robinson too, I think it's good.
8:12
Detroit don't have any secondary scoring.
8:14
That's why I think the Knicks are going to be so much better
8:16
in a playoff game because the Knicks have multiple scorers
8:20
that can put the ball in the net.
8:21
And that's why I think they, whoever they play against now,
8:24
they do the Cavaliers do. They have James Harden, They've
8:28
got guys. They've got guys that are
8:29
secondary. Knick, Keller, Max Strouser a
8:31
few years. Ago.
8:33
So they do. But I here's the problem.
8:36
We've seen the Cavs, they completely, for some reason,
8:39
don't play defense in certain quarters and they let teams
8:43
score 3940 points. They do that against the Knicks.
8:46
The Knicks are going to blow them out.
8:47
Yeah, blow them out. Yeah, I, I think that the Knicks
8:51
are doing a good job up until this point.
8:53
I think they don't match up well with Cleveland.
8:55
I know I'm gonna get a lot of kickback in regards to that, but
8:58
I do think that being an Obi is coming off of a hamstring
9:02
injury, I don't think he comes back the same type of player.
9:05
So that with Jared Allen and Evan Mobley being able to use
9:09
their lid versus Cat and Obi, I think that that that gives New
9:14
York problems. It'll be interesting to see New
9:18
York has been prideful about the defense that they have played.
9:22
I think it's about one or two players that actually truly play
9:25
defense. But I think it would be a high
9:27
school in Eastern Conference finals.
9:29
I don't think Detroit overcome this.
9:31
I do think that ticket to a Game 7 just because I think Cage is
9:34
going to give all he has for a game since and then he's going
9:37
to, you know, wear out and tower during Game 7.
9:41
He don't really have that efficient top scorer.
9:44
Like I said before in the last take, Tobias Harris going to
9:46
give you about 15 to 20. You know, and that's not going
9:50
to necessarily be enough all the time.
9:51
You're going to need some extra support when you got, you know,
9:54
Donovan Mitchell going for 45 and James Harden going for 30.
9:58
You know, every mobile going anywhere between 15 to 20.
10:01
Like that's a lot of points for you to make up with when you
10:04
only got one player scored 40, then another was going like 15
10:07
to 20. Just so you know, go.
10:09
Just so you know, you mentioned all the bigs on the couch,
10:11
Cavaliers. Go look at Mitch Robinson's
10:14
numbers. Go look at his numbers against
10:16
the Cavaliers. In bolts I like to stay in real
10:18
time. Go look.
10:19
Go look at Mitch Robinson. Go look at what Mitch Robinson
10:22
has done to the Cavaliers in the playoffs.
10:25
Then come back to me. Then come back to me.
10:27
Then come back to me. Come back to.
10:28
Me after that deep threat with. Stress.
10:30
And I got news for you. I got news for you.
10:33
I told you. I told you about Mikhail Bridges
10:36
in the 76ers series, and I'm telling you about Mitch.
10:38
Robinson in this series came when y'all was up just telling
10:40
you. Just tell you.
10:42
About Mitch Robertson. Mitch Robertson.
10:45
Mitch Robertson is going to be one of the killers if they play
10:48
the Cavaliers. Remember I said that?
10:50
Yeah, remember, I said. That first, you said the same
10:51
thing about the Cavaliers. OK, just what he did, yeah.
10:54
But anyway. Let's move on to say.
10:56
That hold on, hold on. I would say that the Cleveland
10:59
Cavaliers were probably not the New York Knicks out in the
11:04
Eastern Conference. You'll be wrong on that one.
11:06
I'm sure I will not. Let's move on to the Nets.
11:10
The Nets got six pick after the the lottery balanced out.
11:16
Here are the names that we're expecting to see around six.
11:20
Darius Acuff junior Keaton Waggler might be there.
11:25
Kingston Flemings one of your favorites.
11:28
Errol if you're the Nets they got you know Dem in seemed like
11:32
of those five rookies they drafted previously, he seems
11:36
like he's might be able to be a player in the league.
11:38
They look like they need to get a play making guard to put with
11:40
him though at the very least. It's, it's Darius.
11:43
A cuff is going to be there. If he's there, unless some team
11:46
jumps up and tries to steal him away at a #5-A cuff will be the
11:51
guy for the Nets. He is going to be your future
11:53
guard, your future point guard. He can score, He can do
11:56
everything. He reminds me of a Damian
11:59
Lillard, That's who He reminds me of the guy that the pick that
12:02
they traded away, that eventually he went to the Trail
12:05
Blazers and the Trail Blazers drafted him.
12:08
So they have a spot right now and they have a place where they
12:11
can draft the guy that they let go years and years ago, which
12:15
became Damian Lillard. So I think it's Darius Acuff.
12:18
It's absolutely Arkansas. This guy's got a tremendous
12:22
offensive game. He also could play defense, not
12:25
at a high level, but he can work on that over there with
12:28
Brooklyn. And I think he's a slam dunk for
12:30
the Brooklyn Nets. Yeah, Acuff is definitely the
12:32
pick. I would go in that cluster of
12:33
guards. Waggler, he's a good shooter.
12:35
He's got a good stroke from the outside.
12:36
I got a. Deep the name Waggler just
12:38
scares the hell out of. Him he is not as good of a
12:40
defender though I think as Acuff as even Acuff being undersized a
12:43
little bit and him with Calipari learning in that system are you?
12:46
Going to trust the guy from Illinois.
12:48
I know I, I, I like, I like Waggler too.
12:50
I just don't think he's as ready as Acuff is right now.
12:52
I don't trust him. I think he's a good shot
12:54
creator, but I think he's more limited in terms of his in terms
12:57
of his creation play making wise compared to Acuff.
13:00
I like them both right now more than I like Flemings.
13:02
Fleming's the better defensive garbet.
13:04
Like Dan Purcell was saying, his offensive game is still not as
13:06
developed yet and I don't trust the Nets coaching actually make
13:08
that work. Yeah, But I agree, I think a
13:10
cuff is probably the best pick out of the out of the kid in
13:13
that's left obviously out of the top top five.
13:16
So I think they pick a cuff. I think he would be the best fit
13:19
with him and Nick Caston can do a little high pick and roll and
13:22
kind of create some momentum off of that.
13:24
And then obviously they would have to get into free agency and
13:26
kind of get some type of role player or some type of efficient
13:30
scores or 3D guy on the other side of the draft.
13:33
So yeah, I would say a Cup party is the better pick for this next
13:37
election in the NBA draft. The Yankees called up Anthony
13:40
Volpe from AAA after Caballero went down with a broken finger,
13:46
so he's not playing right now. Volpe will get most of his
13:49
playing time at short and of course, he had an error in his
13:52
first game at the position. Back in the big leagues, Max
13:56
Freed left Wednesday's start after three innings and 61
14:01
pitches with a sore pitching elbow.
14:03
They're saying it's the back of the elbow, not the Tommy John
14:06
part of the elbow. So they don't think it's a Tommy
14:09
John UCL related injury, but we'll find out later tonight or
14:14
early tomorrow because they should be getting MRI results
14:18
done today for free. Not what they want to hear.
14:21
The Yankees have lost five out of their last six after being
14:25
swept by the Brewers and now losing two of three to the
14:28
Orioles. There's 2 1/2 games back of the
14:30
race. You can hit walls.
14:32
This is baseball. There's 162 games.
14:34
The Yankees were playing at a high level.
14:36
They won nine games in a row, and you knew they were going to
14:39
hit a wall. So for all the fans out there,
14:41
and you want to blame Volpe on the reason why the Yankees are
14:44
in a slump, it has nothing to do with Volpe.
14:47
OK, Yeah, he made an error. That's fine.
14:49
He just came back to the majors. He just came off of a bad
14:52
injury. He played all season long with
14:55
that injury. I'm not going to attack Volpe
14:58
until we figure out in 2025 games if the guy can hit.
15:01
I think he's going to be fine. I think he's still a good
15:03
defensive player. As far as the Yankees are
15:05
concerned, they got the pitching and they've got an AGM that's
15:10
going to make moves at the trade deadline no matter what.
15:12
If they need a a batter, they need a hitter, they need a
15:17
pitcher, a bullpen arm, they're going to make those moves first.
15:19
So Yankee fans, calm down. The Yankees will go on another
15:23
eight game-winning streak and I don't trust Tampa.
15:26
As good as they have played all season long.
15:28
They got a good coach, they got a good manager and they're a
15:31
smart organization. They don't really have big name
15:35
superstars. They don't.
15:36
They have good young players, but not guys that are going to
15:39
continue to play at this level. I think eventually they're going
15:42
to tip and the Yankees are going to jump them.
15:44
Yeah, the Yankees ran into a Brewers team that fish you were
15:47
talking about, like how many mediocre American League teams
15:49
there were last time we did inside baseball.
15:51
The Brewers were also one of those teams that were record
15:54
wise mediocre, but they had a really good run differential in
15:56
the National League that got meeting up alive.
15:57
So they were due for some good luck.
15:58
The Yankees were due to regress a little.
16:00
It just happens. It's the way it happens.
16:01
Max Friedy would hope is an encouraging sign that you said
16:04
at the back of the arm because he had some injury issues
16:06
towards the end of his career with the Braves, was healthier
16:09
kind of early in his career and he's been, besides the blister
16:12
issues last year, good with the Yankees so far.
16:14
As far as Volpe, yeah, you don't really have another choice at
16:16
this point with Caballero down. You didn't want to have to make
16:18
another guy play out of position either like Ryan McMahon or Jazz
16:22
Jism, who wasn't a great defender anyway.
16:23
And you don't have to worry about this division because the
16:26
Orioles, even though they're playing decent baseball, they're
16:28
five and five in the last 10 games.
16:30
The Blue Jays stink right now. They're not 18 to 24.
16:33
They've 3 for 7/3 and seven in the last 10 games.
16:37
And the Red Sox are five and five in the last 10 games and
16:40
they stink 218 to 24. The Yankees could go into a
16:43
little bit of slump and then pick up their game.
16:45
And the Yankees schedule is going to get easier in the next
16:48
two weeks. So watch the Yankees will go on
16:50
a 7 or 8 game-winning streak and watch out.
16:52
The Yankees will be back to where everybody thinks they're
16:55
going to be. They're going to be the best
16:56
team in the American League. They're going to have the best
16:58
pitch in the in the American League.
17:00
They got two guys right now that are going to be up for a Cy
17:03
Young and young guys. We'll see if they can continue
17:06
playing that way. They've Garrett Cole coming
17:08
back, Rodon who's back. I mean, this team is going to be
17:12
fine. And if Freak comes back at the
17:14
end of the year and makes the wrong with the Yankees, you're
17:16
golden. Stop complaining.
17:18
Stop bitching, Yankee fans. Yeah, I, I think that, you know,
17:22
at the end of the day, they have to take care of themselves.
17:24
I think there's an injury bug. You know, we'll talk a little
17:27
bit later about my mess, but there's an injury bug flying
17:30
around in New York and, you know, they're just getting the
17:32
short end of it. I'm not necessarily concerned
17:34
about the Yankees, but I do think that this board upon more
17:37
oil sweep was definitely a bad look and definitely something to
17:40
complain about. But hopefully, you know, they
17:42
can get back healthy. And obviously pitching has been
17:45
doing well in regards to keeping us alive overall.
17:49
But yeah, I think that they just got to stay healthy and
17:51
everything else to play except like you said, they used to kind
17:54
of in their hands and they're going to go as far and it's
17:56
going to go as far as they go. But for the most part, I just
17:59
think they just took some bad losses, especially this last one
18:01
versus Baltimore with A7 O round.
18:03
That's just not. You cannot the, the, the one guy
18:06
you cannot lose for the season is Aaron Judge.
18:08
If Aaron Judge is healthy and he's in the lineup, they're
18:11
going to be fine. I, I, I do not believe this team
18:14
is in trouble or worrisome. You heard Aaron Judge, what was
18:18
it 24 hours ago say we're going to go on another winning streak?
18:22
We're when it's slump right now. We're a good team.
18:24
I'm excited for the season. We're going to win a lot of
18:27
games, he said it. And I'm not worried about if
18:29
Aaron Judge is saying it. I believe it.
18:32
So he put in a slump early, early in the years to say.
18:35
I believe Aaron Judge. And he's already back to hitting
18:38
270. So, you know, he's fine as
18:42
everyone expected. Let's talk about those Mets.
18:44
Q Come on. So the Mets, I guess the
18:46
injuries, Francisco Alvarez, it just doesn't look like this is a
18:50
guy who's ever going to stay healthy.
18:51
He tore his meniscus. He's out two months.
18:57
It's just not an injury you want to catch her to get just kind of
19:00
doing basic activities and he's tearing his meniscus.
19:04
Luis Robert, the big offseason acquisition, lower back
19:07
inflammation seems like a lower, like a disc issue.
19:11
He doesn't look like he's improving.
19:13
I'm assuming they gave him some kind of, you know, epidural
19:16
injection or something to see if it would calm it down.
19:19
It has not. So he is still out.
19:21
Lindor is getting an MRI this week from that calf injury, but
19:25
don't expect to see him until at some point in June.
19:29
So there's a lot of injuries, so they had to bring up this
19:32
prospect. AJ Ewing has been great, who in
19:35
his first two games has been awesome.
19:38
He had a historic MLB debut with three walks, a AAA stolen base,
19:42
multiple RBIs. He hit his first career home run
19:46
today. Soto had a little scare
19:48
yesterday's game, but he came back and hit a home run today.
19:51
Seems like he's fine, and the Mets have won a couple of games
19:54
in a row heading into this weekend's Subway Series against
19:59
the Yankees. They're seven and three in the
20:01
last 10 games and I again, the Mets are in last place in their
20:05
division. That's a division and I'm not
20:07
making fun of the Mets. I think the Mets could come
20:09
back. I don't think they're making the
20:11
playoffs. Yeah, come out, come out.
20:12
They're not going, baby. They're not making the.
20:15
Playoffs not in the American. League they're they're not
20:17
making the playoffs, but they're going to play better.
20:20
I like Ewing. I like what they have right now.
20:22
I like binge. I, I they're this is they've got
20:25
some good young prospects, but Ewing is going to get into a
20:28
slump. It's not like he's going to play
20:30
at this high level. He's playing well.
20:32
He looked fantastic his first two games.
20:35
We'll see how as it progressively moves forward and
20:37
he plays against better pitching.
20:39
The Yankees have great pitching. They're going to have to walk
20:41
into Schlittler. They got to walk into Warren.
20:43
They got to walk into this pitching staff.
20:45
We'll see how that works. But I think the Mets are playing
20:48
better baseball and they're not firing Mendoza.
20:50
So for all the fans out there that thought they're going to
20:52
fire Mendoza, they're going to keep Mendoza until the trade
20:56
deadline. If Mendoza gets this team out of
20:58
the hiatus and and they they find their way into at least a
21:03
500 record going into the All Star break, he's going nowhere.
21:07
And I don't think David Stearns is going to move anybody.
21:11
He's right now we're going into a strike season.
21:14
So he's going to have to play and, and weigh in his options on
21:18
what this team is with the youngsters and the youth that
21:20
they have on this friend on this on this roster.
21:23
So I like what I see with the youngsters.
21:25
We have to see if they continue playing at a high level.
21:27
Yeah, they're both in the outfield, which I think is
21:29
something that you look at between the Robert injury and
21:31
the fact that they had a lot of defensive guys before that with
21:35
Melendez, with just the rotation that they had going into the
21:39
year, Tyrone Taylor, Mike Tauchman, who got hurt.
21:41
And so I think having those two guys more is a sure thing in the
21:44
outfit. To let them develop naturally
21:46
without these other guys hurt is a good step for the Mets going
21:48
forward. Yeah, brick by brick man.
21:51
That's what we're doing. Brick by brick man.
21:53
I know you guys don't like to hear me say it, but, you know, I
21:56
think this team is going to surprise us at the end of the
21:59
day. Just get into the fell just just
22:02
by the, you know, hair by 10 to 10:10.
22:05
But the guy, the only guy, young, young and the you and
22:08
young and he came in and gave us gave us a spark.
22:10
And I'm I'm cool with that. I think that there will be
22:13
players that are step up and I think that teams are going to
22:15
come in and underestimate the next and then they just steal a
22:19
couple games here and there. They're on a little hot streak.
22:21
Like you said earlier, they will go into a little slump and
22:23
that's expected because, you know, baseball played by 8090 a
22:27
hundred games and whatnot. So it's suspected, you know,
22:30
he's not a robot. But I do think that this team
22:33
has found some momentum and I think they're going to just
22:36
build on top of the moment that they have found brick by brick.
22:39
Like I said, day by day, game by game.
22:41
Let's go, Mets. All right, let's get to
22:45
football, the Giants and Jets. So let's just start with
22:50
something that leaked earlier today with the schedule.
22:53
Week 1 Jets, Titans. Robert Sala comes back to face
23:00
The Jets right off the bat in a grudge match.
23:04
What a interesting 1 he gets to gets them in Tennessee.
23:07
The only other news I have Reese Hall and I did a sportsman on
23:11
earlier this week, three years, $45.75 million contract and in
23:16
his press conference he said he's the only top 10 running
23:19
back that has been in a less than ideal situation in the
23:23
league and still putting up those.
23:24
Numbers. He's not wrong.
23:26
Nobody's going to argue with him.
23:27
He's not wrong. I think it was a great contract
23:30
for The Jets 15,000,000. I I think, and the, The Jets are
23:33
still going to have a lot of money to spend next year.
23:36
They've got a ton of draft stock and they needed their best
23:39
offensive option. He is their best offensive
23:41
option. He was great last year with an
23:43
offensive line that was tipping and towing all season long.
23:47
But it's a good young offensive line and now with the weapons
23:50
that they have now, they're going to explode right off the
23:52
paper with talent. So I, I, I like the Bruce Hall
23:55
signing and as far as who they're playing in the first
23:58
first game is who cares? Who cares?
24:01
We have to see how this roster falls together before we even
24:04
talk about who they're playing in the first game.
24:06
Second, Robert AKA Bambi Salah, Who cares?
24:09
Peace out. Who cares?
24:11
Goodbye All Brake no gas whatever the hell.
24:13
Or all gas no. Brake.
24:14
Whatever, whatever it was really all brake, no gas, because
24:18
that's all it was anyways, I'm done with.
24:20
That remember Q he was keeping receipts.
24:22
Too. Yes, Sir.
24:23
Yes, Sir. The only receipts he was keeping
24:25
is the ones in his ass. Meanwhile, The Jets were six and
24:28
three in 2022. Lost our friend Pete, burst 6
24:31
Vikings. I fell completely apart after
24:33
that. But yeah, I think they did the
24:34
right thing with Breece Hall. I I praise him last year for
24:36
paying Wilson and Saucer and as good as they did, I did the
24:39
right thing. I get the drama not being there.
24:42
Yeah, we, we, we're sold out on offense and we're doing a good
24:45
job with acquiring talent. Now, obviously we got a training
24:49
camp and OTA to kind of figure out how we're going to get this
24:52
talent to, you know, come together and fall into place led
24:56
by Geno Smith. So I think that this team is
24:59
built to win in a win now situation.
25:01
Obviously I got them going to the playoffs being a wild card
25:04
coming out of AMC East. But I yeah, at the end of the
25:08
day, I think the Tennessee game is, is kind of what they, you
25:11
know, The Jets always kind of get that first game as like a
25:13
robbery, like they fire somebody or they get rid of somebody.
25:16
And then it just magically happened where they play on the
25:19
last, you know, man, Aaron watches, you know, after he had
25:22
his debacle in New York, he went to Pittsburgh and then they
25:24
first game they played against Pittsburgh.
25:26
And so I think the NFL loves to see a New York team, you know,
25:30
go head to head with somebody that they just got rid of.
25:33
But I don't think it'll be that big of a thing.
25:35
I think both teams are trying to figure out who they are and get
25:38
their identity. I do think Tennessee is less
25:41
talented than us. So it'll be interesting.
25:43
And I think that you know the. Jets, why are we talking about
25:46
that game? Can we stop?
25:48
Because it's on the schedule, it's the first game.
25:50
On move on. Go move on.
25:53
Let's talk about other Giants, New York football Giants will be
25:57
the discussion. Malik Neighbors.
25:59
He had a second procedure done to clean out some stiffness in
26:03
the knee, which obviously sets his timetable back a little bit.
26:07
They say that they they think they're optimistic for Week 1,
26:11
which is not what you want to hear going into the season.
26:15
The other bit of news I have on the Giants looking over here is
26:20
their top undrafted free agent rookie from UNC AD back named
26:25
Thaddeus Dixon. Torres Achilles in mini camp.
26:28
He is going to be done, unfortunately for him.
26:32
I'll say this, I told you about the neighbors thing.
26:36
I want everybody to know I said Malik Neighbors is not going to
26:39
be the same high flying offensive option that the Giants
26:43
had and they drafted from LSU. I think that's a big problem and
26:46
you're going to hear that all season long.
26:48
Hence the reason why the Giants needed to go for a wide receiver
26:52
in the first round and they didn't.
26:55
That's all I'm going to say about that.
26:56
Yeah, they went for the combined production, hoping a lot of
26:58
these streakier slot guys to make it work.
27:00
We'll see if it works in that system.
27:02
But yeah, I would say October would be the more likely thing
27:04
for him to play at the full potential again.
27:08
It's the Giants, man. They figured out how to blow it.
27:11
But Nah, yeah, I mean, not too much on the Giants.
27:15
You know, that's, it's pretty much self experience.
27:17
I'm interested to see how Jackson Dart come out and
27:20
actually play and see what you guys can do with him.
27:22
But yeah, I just leave it at. Who's he thrown to?
27:27
That's the problem. That's.
27:28
Arnelle Mooney and Calvin Austin.
27:29
Good luck. Giant fans, good luck.
27:32
Enjoy. Good that up.
27:33
Enjoy. All right, to wrap up the car,
27:36
so we're going to save hockey for our hockey segment after.
27:41
I just want to give a shout out to.
27:42
I want to, I want to give a shout out to Matthew Shaffer for
27:45
winning the Calder Trophy. Shout out to Matthew Schaefer.
27:49
He deserved it. He got all the votes.
27:51
He is. He was the best rookie in the
27:53
NHL this year. Congratulations to him.
27:55
Great kid. Love everything about him.
27:58
Matthew Schaefer, obviously top thing that happened there in the
28:01
local area. Looks like everyone recognized
28:04
his greatness. Tide, Leach's record for goals.
28:08
Sabres, we'll talk about their playoffs in the playoffs
28:10
segment. And the Bills signed the backup
28:12
tight end and a backup pass rusher.
28:15
Congratulations to us. That's the.
28:17
Carousel and that is the carousel.
28:19
For Oh my God, I'm a little lost tonight.
28:22
A little lost as I've been sick all over the last 48 hours.
28:27
I'm on antibiotic antibiotics, I'm on steroids.
28:30
I'm on everything. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm still
28:32
here trying to entertain you guys.
28:35
All right, my deuce of the day. The deuce of the day you log not
28:40
a log. I don't have a log, but no.
28:49
Well, my deuce of the day goes to the old Jakey poo, ladies and
28:52
gentlemen. Yes, you know who that is?
28:54
Mr. Jake Paul. And Jake Paul has his mouth
29:01
waving. And I, I'll say this, Jake Paul
29:03
is a marketing genius. This guy knows how to make
29:06
money. He's doing such a great job
29:07
right now on Netflix, raising money, bringing in all these
29:10
guys and and girls to fight. And it's it's sensational.
29:14
I love it. But then Jake Paul has the
29:16
audacity to go after Canelo Alvarez and challenge him and
29:20
tell him that he wants to fight him for $200 million and says
29:23
that he's offering him $200 million to get in the ring with
29:26
him. Meanwhile, there's a story
29:28
coming out that Jake Paul's eye sockets are still not healed
29:33
from the Joshua fight and his cheekbone is still not fully
29:36
healed and he might never fight again.
29:38
So why is he challenging probably one of the deadliest
29:41
punchers in the boxing world? It makes no sense.
29:45
It just shows you how stupid he is as a fighter.
29:48
But hey, if he wants to get in a ring with another guy to pop out
29:51
another of actually actually pop out his eye this time, good luck
29:54
to him, Jake Paul. Just stick to the marketing end,
29:56
man. You're sensational.
29:58
You're doing such a great job. You're making millions and
30:00
millions of dollars. You're helping the boxing world.
30:02
You're helping mixed martial arts and fighters really
30:06
obviously get an opportunity to make some money with the UFC is
30:09
not. You're doing things that Dana
30:11
White is not doing for the fighters, giving them insurances
30:15
and everything like that. You're doing all these great
30:17
things. Why do you want to get back in
30:18
the ring and be an idiot? This isn't rocky, buddy.
30:21
And if you think you're Rocky, you're going to get knocked the
30:23
hell out. That's all I'm going to say
30:25
about that. So that is my deuce of the day.
30:27
I just want to let everybody know that I fought my way
30:30
through the show. I've been congested.
30:32
I've been dealing with it and I'm I'm just happy that I got
30:35
through the show. So thank you to all the guys and
30:38
the the fans out there that have set me get well and shout out to
30:42
Jamie Lee and all the people that have stood behind me for
30:47
all the craziness over the last 48 hours.
30:49
So thank you, thank you, thank you and the guys, everybody on
30:52
the show for being behind me on this.
30:54

30:58

31:01

31:57
And if you don't know who Chrissy Freud is, she was the
32:00
one that was let go by her organization because of some of
32:04
the things that she said about Diana Rusini.
32:08
You know, anybody that knows the story, but we're not going to
32:10
get into that. She doesn't want to talk about
32:12
that. But it's very we're very excited
32:15
to have her on the show. She doesn't really.
32:16
She has not jumped on many different shows because of the
32:20
situation, but she wants to come on this show.
32:22
So we really appreciate her and we'll have some fun with her.
32:25
We'll talk a little NFL with her.
32:27
So she was at the draft and I'd love to hear her take on The
32:30
Jets and the Giants pick. So we're happy to have her.
32:33

close out the Detroit Pistons. I'm excited.
32:53
I want to, I want to see the Knicks play.
32:55
The quicker the better because the longer the Knicks wait, the
32:58
more I think it it could affect the Knicks.

33:03
possible. Anyways, that's it for our show.
33:05
We will see you on Monday next week.
