Hour 1
We have a lot to get to today but we started with the great season the Mets gave us. No, it didn’t end in a championship or a World Series appearance, but this is a team that will live in Mets lore for a long time. One thing the Mets need is better bullpen arms. The Yankees will face the Dodgers in the World Series and this is exactly what MLB wanted. How will the Yankees bullpen handle the Dodgers? Boomer called the Giants loss ‘an ass kicking’. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and he started with the sounds of the Mets season coming to an end. Tommy Edman had a big night including a homer. Carlos Mendoza gave credit to the Dodgers. Pete Alonso said he loves being a Met and representing Queens. Gio thinks Alonso is a goner, but Boomer thinks he’ll be back. And Juan Soto is going to take the biggest offer. John Sterling was on the call as Juan Soto hit the game winning HR. Next up Jerry has the sounds of the Jets losing to the Steelers and Russell Wilson. The Jets scored zero points in the second half. Aaron Rodgers talked about the 4 straight losses. We heard from the team of Jerry, Boomer and Phil Simms as Saquon Barkley and the Eagles crushed the Giants. In the final segment of the hour, Gio talked about some of the things he witnessed while working the sidelines of the Giants/Eagles game, including John Mara trying to work his way over to say hello to Saquon. Saquon running all over the Giants was exactly what John Mara didn’t want to happen.
Hour 2
The Jets have now lost 4 in a row and the Steelers scored 31 unanswered points. Gio said the team is rotten. They have scored a total of 14 points in the second half of their 4 losses. They get New England this week and that team is really struggling. They have the Patriots, Texans, Cardinals, Colts and then a bye. Boomer somehow thinks they can win all of those games (we will check during the break to see if Boomer is smoking something). Jerry returns for an update and starts with the sounds of the Mets season ending. We heard Howie Rose as Mookie Betts hit a ball off the left field wall. Carlos Mendoza talked about the great Mets season they should feel proud of. Mookie Betts talked about playing the Yankees in the World Series. Positive Tommy is not leaving, he’s not going anywhere now that the Mets season has come to an end. The Jets had a lot of issues last night in their loss to the Steelers. Rodgers threw a pick after it bounced off of Garrett Wilson’s chest. Dexter Lawrence talked about Barkley running all over the Giants yesterday. Malik Nabers said, ‘watch the target tape, I was open’. In the final segment of the hour, we heard from a Yankees fan living in Houston and a caller who didn’t like that Batman, Michael Keaton, was taking shots at the Jets before the game. And Joe Benigno went back to his greatest hits.
Hour 3
The Mets didn’t have huge expectations this year so the series loss to the Dodgers didn’t make us feel bad about the season. We slayed the dragon known as the Atlanta Braves. We beat the Brewers, beat our enemies in Philadelphia. Gio doesn’t want next year’s expectations to ruin the season, but he’s not sure if that’s possible. The Dodgers hitters obliterated the Mets pitching in all the games the Dodgers won. We talked about the Dodgers bullpen vs the Cleveland bullpen. The Yankees are underdogs in this series for a reason. Callers are angry at Boomer for saying the Yankees had a ‘cake walk’ to the World Series. Boomer said the Dodgers are the toughest team the Yankees will play, which is why they’re favored. Jerry returns for an update but first we talked about YouTube TV making you watch the Liberty if you wanted to also watch the Jets and Mets at the same time on the same screen. Jerry actually started with the Liberty in his update just to bust our balls. Next we heard from Howie Rose as the Mets lost to the Dodgers. The Steelers beat the Jets, who are now 2-5 on the season. Aaron Rodgers was asked what he said to Garre ...
