Al & Jerry: Napster was 27 years ago and John Mellencamp’s old man tour

We preview tonight’s Knicks-Spurs Game 1 and the city's championship drought, debating Jeremy Lin’s ESPN role, locking in series predictions from five to seven games, and hashing out a bleeped Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce debate amidst hyped fan calls. In baseball, the Yankees fall to the Guardians behind a tough Cam Schlittler outing and an Aaron Judge injury, while the Mets drop a sloppy one in Seattle plagued by back-to-back two-base errors. Plus, we hit on Mike Brown singing, Boomer’s Super Bowl memories, Aaron Donald un-retirement rumors, Jacoby Brissett's Jets connection, and AJ Brown to the Patriots. Finally, Gio sprinkles in his series bets, Boomer unbuttons his shirt, and we close with a wild roommate Moment of the Day and Sean Avery’s insane neighbor blackmail war.

We preview tonight’s Knicks-Spurs Game 1 and the city's championship drought since the 2011 Giants, which Boomer compares to the 2007 Giants' late-season and playoff run. Jerry’s first update reveals tonight’s game isn’t even sold out and Mitchell Robinson’s status remains unknown despite practicing. Meanwhile, the Yankees lost to the Guardians as Cam Schlittler gave up five runs, and the Mets lost after back-to-back two-base errors, leaving Mark Vientos to answer questions about his defense. Finally, Gio reviews Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce breaking down the series all while Boomer shows some skin with an extra button unbuttoned.

Gio picks the Knicks in six, going up 3-1 after four games, Boomer thinks that would be amazing and takes them in five, Al selects seven, and Rami agrees on six. We ask if Boomer remembers the emotions leading up to his Super Bowl, before Jerry returns for an update starting with Mike Brown singing "Who Let The Dogs Out?" and bleeped audio of Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett. Meanwhile, the Yankees lost to the Guardians 9-4 as Cam Schlittler gave up five runs, Aaron Boone discussed Aaron Judge’s injury, and the Mets lost in Seattle with back-to-back two-base errors. Finally, Gio has a couple of bets he’s going to "sprinkle" in for the Knicks series.

Gio isn’t just hoping the Knicks win the Finals—he expects them to, as calls pour in from hyped fans and a few buzzkills. Jerry covers a maturing Josh Hart being okay with getting benched and Bruce Beck’s question for Jalen Brunson. Meanwhile, the Yankees lost to the Guardians as their broadcaster took a shot at Jazz Chisholm, Cam Schlittler struggled, and Aaron Judge missed the game with rib/shoulder issues. Plus, the Mets broadcast features a chat about players who don’t wear cups, Aaron Donald sparks un-retirement interest after the Myles Garrett deal, and the hour closes with Jacoby Brissett and the Jets potentially hooking up.

We continue breaking down tonight’s Knicks-Spurs series as Dan in Carteret wonders if Wemby will cry if they lose, though Gio notes talking points won't matter once play begins. Jerry’s final update highlights Mike Brown preparing for the Finals, the Yankees' loss to the Guardians behind a tough Cam Schlittler outing and Paul Goldschmidt's offense, and the Mets' loss in Seattle featuring back-to-back two-base errors. Finally, we hear AJ Brown on joining the Patriots, share a Moment of the Day involving a lesbian roommate and something named after Boomer, and wrap up with Sean Avery’s neighbor battle involving blackmail and hookers.

Jerry's got Mike Brown on the season and how it got them here. Cam Schlittler contributes to Yanks loss. Mets errors doom them. AJ Brown talks about going to the Pats. Plus, the Moment of the Day - A lesbian roommate with something named after Boomer Esiason.

We do more Knicks preview and Dan in Carteret checks in to wonder if Wemby's eyes will leak if the Spurs lose.

Jerry has Josh Hart ok with being benched during games. The nicest man on earth, Bruce Beck, has a question for Jalen Brunson. The Yankees lost to the Guardians and their broadcaster took a shot at Jazz Chisholm. Aaron Judge missed a game with rib/shoulder issues. Gary Cohen and Daniel Murphy talked about players that don’t wear cups. Aaron Donald seems interested in un-retiring after the Myles Garrett deal.

Gio's is big on the Knicks winning. We also take a bunch of your calls on the Knicks.
