C (2:17)

You're going to Jerry world for this one, which if you can get it, you know, playing them at home later.

B (2:24)

In the season, I'm going to tell you, I'm going to Tell you start to dream. All right, we know the Giants haven't played well at home. Here's why I like the fact that it's a Jerry world, all right. Is that I'm sure the Cowboy fans are hating on the team right now because of what Jerry did. And if they get, you know, humiliated in Philadelphia, those fans might be ready to turn on. And Giants walk in there, they have a good couple of first drives, all of a sudden, you know, and there'll be some Giant fans in there, too.

C (2:50)

Well, I was going to ask that because it is the. It is Cowboys home opener. Giants fans find a way in that building. We know that. But would you know how much. How much we're.

B (3:03)

It won't be enough to move the needle, but I'm more thinking of the fact that there'll be a few fans in the building. But more importantly, it might be a situation where those fans are ready to turn on this Cowboy team and start getting into it. So, you know, you open up the season, and the next thing you know, you know, you might. You might be, you know, 1 and 1, 2. And I think the Giants getting off to a good start is really, really, really important. They never do.

C (3:30)

Right.

B (3:31)

So we'll see. But no, I'm watching because I think the destination right now is that the Giants have to feel like there's a chance they could finish ahead of the Cowboys.

C (3:41)

Well, that's kind of what I'm throwing out there.

B (3:45)

And. And you can live with, you know, if Washington in Philadelphia are better than you. Well, those are the two teams that represented the NFC in the championship game.

A (3:52)

It should be.

B (3:52)

There's nothing embarrassing about that. Now, the Cowboys came off a 7 and 10 season, but that was because Dak missed half the year. Well, and they just lost their best defensive player.

A (3:59)

Well, the best player. They lost their best player, period.

D (4:01)

Right.

B (4:02)

Yeah.

A (4:02)

So, like, it's hard to believe that's a team that's going the right direction even though they got their quarterback back. So, yeah, I got to tell you. So Sunday ends up being a pretty big game for the Giants. Like, think about how good you feel. Like you played the commanders very close last year.

B (4:18)

Yeah.

A (4:19)

Think about how good you feel if you start the commander season after championship, they're owing one, and you're coming out of that game going to Dallas one. And no, it's, it's. It's so funny because, like, with the season being 17 games long, even week one can be. As much as I said earlier, it's preseason, and for a team Like Philly, it really is preseason because you know they're ending up 13 and 4 no matter what. But for the Giants, it's not preseason. For the Giants, you want to come.

B (4:40)

Out and get a win immediately and I'm not. Again, I'll decide if I pick them or whatever. I'm not ruling it out. For what you said, they played them tough last year. I can see the commanders they want. They caught a bunch of breaks last year. I don't think it's going to be there. Your season last year was kind of like the Giants in 22. Now, obviously you represent yourself much better in the postseason and they're even if you lost and they're a better team, but you did catch some breaks. Admittedly, you know, you're probably not really a 14 win team. It was a 14 and three. What were your records? 13 and 13. Yeah.

A (5:12)

You're probably 11 and six. They were probably more like an 11.

B (5:15)

Right. And so would you be that surprised if you go 10 and 7 this year? Like so it's a divisional game. You never know if you steal one. Now, Dallas is not what you thought he would. Listen. 2, 0. Just. I can't even wrap my mind around. But if the Giants were to start the year two and oh, with two division wins, they never win in the division. They never start early. And if they're able to win two divisional games and they're two and oh, you know, and now all of a sudden, you know, you're right. You lose to the Chiefs, but you got the Chargers after that, then the Saints. Now you're, now you're starting to think you're onto something here.

C (5:46)

You hear that?

B (5:47)

Never know.

C (5:48)

It's Pope Hope for a franchise that is one in seven in their last season openers.

B (5:54)

No, no, they're not. They're not good in season openers. They're not good. They're not a good team. They haven't been a good team in a long time.

C (5:59)

They're not good.

B (6:00)

Do you know who has the current longest streak of losses on opening day?

C (6:06)

I think I remember this from last year. Is. All right, help me out. Is it a surprise team or a team? You.

A (6:14)

It's.

B (6:16)

It's not a great team, but I don't think you. I don't. If you're going to guess, it'll be a while before you get there.

C (6:23)

All right.

B (6:24)

All right. Anthony in my ear said Bears.

C (6:26)

No, that's a good guess.

B (6:29)

The streak is 11, by the way. 11 consecutive season opening losses.

C (6:34)

Damn.

D (6:34)

Wow.

A (6:36)

Would you go as far as saying that's not what you want.

B (6:39)

Not what you want.

C (6:40)

No.

D (6:40)

No.

A (6:43)

I'll tell you what, I'll tell you what.

C (6:44)

Arizona.

B (6:45)

Yes. No.

C (6:46)

No.

B (6:46)

So it's you just your Indianapolis Colts.

A (6:53)

Wow.

B (6:54)

Kind of weird, right? Not a great team, but not a bad team. In that 11 year span they had.

C (6:59)

A luck as many years to lose. Well, they now have Daniel Jones so they got that going for him, which is nice.

A (7:08)

Good for them.

B (7:09)

I don't think he's going to be all that bad.

C (7:12)

No.

A (7:12)

I can see him being okay there.

B (7:13)

He's going to be fine.

C (7:14)

They have no offense.

B (7:14)

I don't think he's going to be, you know, Saquon Barkley esque. But I do think he's going to.

C (7:19)

Have you think they're going to run the ball too a lot. I would think it's going to be. I would think they're going to treat him just the same way you would. The jets are going to treat Justin Fields Pass less, run more.

B (7:29)

Yeah, but there's, you know, 22 did happen. I know he only threw 15 touchdown passes, but he ran for seven.

C (7:36)

Well, again, you know, it was pass less, run more.

B (10:11)

Kadeem, in the car. You're on ESPN New York. What's up, Kadeem?

D (10:16)

Gentlemen, the Four Horsemen. Good to have you guys all back together, my friend.

B (10:20)

Who's the fourth of us?

C (10:21)

Unless you.

D (10:22)

Anthony P. What about.

C (10:24)

What about Jacob Perry? You know.

B (10:25)

All right, so the five blocks of.

C (10:27)

Granite, that's what we are.

D (10:28)

This is like the Yankees. This is like the Yankees core four to the actual five discussion.

B (10:34)

So what you're saying is Jacob is Bernie Williams.

C (10:36)

Bernie.

D (10:37)

Yeah, that's fine. Yeah, that works. But, gentlemen, what I've seen a lot of recently, and with you guys, there's a lot of toolbox behavior going on recently. This week one is my Philadelphia Eagles. Like, guys, guys, you don't know that. The ring ceremony. What are we doing?

C (10:59)

Like, he's being that guy.

A (11:00)

He is that guy.

C (11:01)

He's that guy.

D (11:02)

But it's just so unnecessary. Like, we already have people that do it. Like, it's like, now you're. Now you're like, what are you, Nick Saban in Alabama? Like, guys, we good. In my lifetime, we've had good success. But, like, let's relax.

B (11:14)

So you're with me. When I said that Eagle fans even acknowledge that Sirianni is a tool.

D (11:20)

Oh, Don. I'm wishing. When you're right, my friend. That's yes. So we're good there. Toolbox number two. I mean, Bill Belichick. How many times have you guys seen the clip of Derek Mason? They're up like two scores. He doesn't even want to talk to Derek Mason on the sideline. And then you got this girl on there on the set. Enough. Because if Taylor Swift's on the sideline at halftime with Travis Kelce giving him a banana at some Gatorade, we're all going to kill him for it. Bill, I get it. You're old. You don't care anymore. But like, just. It's the first game in North Carolina, it's three hours. She'll be fine. It's all good.

B (11:57)

All I'll say, and we'll quickly move on. It must be insane.

C (12:01)

It really is.

B (12:02)

Sparks flight.

D (12:03)

I agree with you wholeheartedly.

A (12:05)

But as I told you.

B (12:09)

It could.

A (12:09)

Have just been plain old crackers.

C (12:10)

It doesn't even know. I'm telling you, Leather and lace.

D (12:15)

And the third toolbox is now Don and Alan. And Alan. I know for sure you're not interested in. In this. Peter. Me and. Me and you are. See more I on this. We talked about the, you know, my admiration of Real Ripley. You see Drake on the. On the interview shoot. His shot like with Drake. 1. You've done enough, man.

A (12:37)

I just wanna. I just want him to stay away. He's a mush.

B (12:41)

She.

D (12:41)

She could.

A (12:41)

She could go on to be the greatest women's wrestler of all time. I just want Drake to stay away. Now she's at marriage. I don't even mean romantically. She's married. But I just.

D (12:51)

I could say it. So like Drake. There's. I. If I'm in the know of that Drake like, same thing with Eagles. I'm like, you don't know. That's all. That's all I got with that said.

A (13:00)

Drake did an interview yesterday in which he said his for you page on Instagram which is, you know, like those suggestions and they base it on your algorithm. So mine is like, you know, it's like Mike Tyson clips and boobs is mine. For example. Drake said.

C (13:15)

Drake said his combination.

A (13:17)

Drake said his.

C (13:18)

For example.

A (13:19)

Just an example. Drake said his is all Rhea Ripley pictures. And he's like, she's my muse, okay? And so everyone's just like, dude, just.

C (13:29)

That's lame. Actually.

A (13:29)

You're very over the top. Just chill out she's a married woman. And you know, you know him, he might, you know, he might slide in the DMs. Her boyfriend by. I mean, her husband is a gigantic man, by the way.

B (13:38)

Okay.

A (13:39)

But I just want him to stay away because she has such a bright career and we've seen what's happened in the past.

B (13:44)

Right. He did break it with the Raptors a bit, but there's a lot of history.

A (13:48)

Right? He did, but there's UFC fights where he posts the bet. There's Serena Williams. How often does Drake wander in and all of a sudden something horrible happens.

C (13:56)

Yeah.

A (13:56)

I just want him to stay. Keep.

B (13:57)

He gotta go in the bathroom.

A (13:59)

Exactly.

C (13:59)

Right.

B (14:00)

From Bronx Tale.

A (14:01)

His Exactly. Mushroom in the bathroom.

C (14:03)

That's one of the best. Like, he just drags him into the bathroom.

B (14:06)

Closes.

C (14:07)

Remember, he's standing like this because. Yeah. Small bathroom.

B (14:09)

And they're all. And then they're watching. Was it the. Wasn't horses. I think it was the dog races or whatever.

C (14:15)

Right.

B (14:15)

And then they sent him in the.

C (14:17)

Bathroom when they were rolling.

B (14:18)

But. But later on in the movie, in a Bronx town. I think they're watching. They're watching a horse as they're ra.

C (14:23)

Yeah.

B (14:23)

And they see him coming down and they realize that they have the same horse as him and they start ripping up the ticket before the race is over. They just know they're going to lose. Unbelievable.

D (14:32)

Abercrombie is an official fashion partner of the NFL. And I'm CeeDee Lamb, wide receiver for the Dallas Cowboys. You know, I'm here for Abercrombie's Cowboys gear. That's not a question, but I need a whole wardrobe to go with it.

B (14:44)

A (15:57)

I didn't listen to anything you just said.

C (15:58)

Catch the show on demand whenever you want. Just subscribe to us. Wherever you get your podcast, wait for it.

A (16:13)

We love Naughty by Nature.

C (16:15)

Yeah, they were great.

B (16:18)

That was a very underrated moment at that Nick show that we did at both. Stout, right?

A (16:24)

Yeah. When they showed up, when they came.

B (16:25)

But that was really cool. I mean, they were frauds, but they were really nice guys.

A (16:30)

That was a very funny conversation. KG is a big fraud. He admitted it.

B (16:34)

Right? But I think when people realize that the spirit in which I say it, that because you call somebody a fraud, it's fighting. Right? But then when you explain, dude, you're singing at halftime of the Knick game and you're talking about what a die hard net fan you are. And then you go to New York, go, New York, go. Because the Knicks are in the playoff. That's fraudulent behavior. And I explained it to him. He understood. But isn't it fraud? He's still a fan.

C (16:57)

Isn't it fraud with, with. What did you call it? Fraud with. Is it not a purpose? But there's something that you call fraud with reason. Well, you know what the reason was?

B (17:08)

Well, he got paid.

C (17:09)

Yeah.

B (17:10)

But I really do think he was hoping the Knicks would win.

C (17:14)

Why not?

B (17:15)

Well, because you're a net fan. You should be sickened.

C (17:18)

Yeah, but he's not.

B (17:19)

I, I, that's why he's a fraud.

C (17:21)

He's an artist. Like he, you know, he's just here for the fun.

B (17:24)

We had a really bad moment on, on Friday with the fraud alert. Friday.

A (17:30)

Oh, no.

B (17:31)

You put me in a bad spot with the whole, like, you know, rooting for the Yankees because it was 911 and I said it was fraudulent behavior. With reason.

C (17:40)

Called him out.

B (17:42)

Still fraud. But I get it. But he's making me now, now like I'm a bad guy.

C (17:47)

You are calling it. You're still going with guys rooting against New York at our lowest.

B (17:52)

Fraud with reason. It's like manslaughter.

A (17:54)

It's not justifiable.

B (17:56)

Homic.

C (17:58)

That was not in the same context of the conversation that we were having, but it was a funny line.

B (18:03)

All right, let's get back to the busy, busy phones. Javier in Queens, you're on ESPN New York. What's up, Harvey?

D (18:10)

Hey, what's going on, guys? A great show today. Great list. Brian Kelly is in the fraud hall of Fame. I Want to point that question? I love how you guys brought. Brought this guy up. He should be the introduction for Fraud Friday. But just something very quickly for each of you. Those dudes, I called them before with suggestions for your. For your songs. Alan. The big time 40 year old virgin energy those guys were giving off. They had never stepped foot in one of those clubs.

C (18:38)

Yeah, you got an honorary mention. Okay, all right.

D (18:41)

Honorary mention. Vanity 6, nasty girl. I know you were doing rock and roll.

C (18:45)

Well, it's rock.

D (18:45)

Yeah, but that is the anthem.

C (18:47)

Yeah, yeah, of course.

B (18:48)

But that was also in Beverly was cop, right?

A (18:51)

Is that what's playing?

C (18:52)

It was.

B (18:53)

Yes.

C (18:54)

That's a great pull by you. Holy. I mean, that was. Yeah, yeah.

B (19:02)

You know what? Thank you, thank you, thank you. You guys made.

A (19:08)

He remember. He remembers important scenes.

C (19:11)

You know what I mean?

D (19:13)

My generation. That. That's the amp them. And then before I get to Don real quick, sorry.

A (19:20)

I just want to point out Javier, to back to Don's point earlier. While that song can be associated with strip clubs, and even in that scene, specifically, the song Nasty girl by vanity6 is so much better than just being labeled like strip club.

C (19:35)

Oh.

A (19:36)

You know what I mean?

C (19:41)

It's the same as not. It's like close White Zombie. Why it's too good of a song. Right. Because that's a more human than human. But it definitely fits.

A (19:50)

But it is that. I mean, fair Prince knew what he was doing.

D (19:53)

Produced by Prince or produced by Prince, I believe.

A (19:56)

Yeah, produce and written. That they're his. That's his group.

C (20:00)

Mm.

D (20:01)

All right. For that dude, before Luigi's on 5th Avenue between 20th and 21st street and Park Slope. Excellent pizza place. It's from the Big Daddy. Adam Sandler went there and Big Daddy. It's a good pizza place. And last Don. I got it. I got to come for you at the end because I know you're sensitive today. Draft day, terrible movie. Draft day is an awful.

B (20:22)

No, it's awesome.

D (20:22)

I would put. I would put little giant.

A (20:24)

It's over your head.

B (20:27)

It's over your head.

C (20:28)

Javi. I was going to defend you.

B (20:30)

It's so good. Anyway, it dissects the draft.

C (20:32)

Any given Sunday should be on that list. Draft day takes too long to get to the best part.

B (20:36)

All right, that's fine. But to say it's a terrible moment. It's not a terrible.

C (20:39)

Well, they say little great ants, though.

B (20:41)

A little. Come on, Javi.

C (20:42)

I had you until that moment.

B (20:44)

Oh, my God.

C (20:45)

Had him until that moment.

B (20:47)

Let's go to Adam in Kings Park. You're on espn. Eric. What's Adam. What's Adam.

A (20:52)

B (21:01)

Yeah.

D (21:01)

Come on, Kryptonite. Come on, Kryptonite. That is a classic scene. Cologero's going, no, no, Sonny, come on. He's winning.

B (21:15)

He's picking up the Rift tickets. And then they lose.

C (21:17)

Anyway, the bar scene with the bikers.

D (21:21)

Is one of the most nows you can't leave.

B (21:26)

Yeah.

C (21:26)

Classic.

B (21:27)

Such a great movie.

D (21:29)

You know that's a true story, right?

A (21:31)

Rock sale.

B (21:32)

I don't think.

D (21:33)

Yeah, that's a true story.

A (21:34)

Yeah, it is.

D (21:35)

The guy that plays Sonny is Cologero in real life.

A (21:42)

The guy who plays Sonny is Gonzalo in real life. Okay.

D (21:46)

Yeah. So the guy that plays, you know, of the Mafia or whatever they call it.

C (21:50)

What's.

B (21:51)

What's his name? He's a big Yankee.

D (21:59)

He was Calogero in real life.

B (22:01)

Okay.

C (22:01)

Didn't you guys have him on a couple of times?

B (22:03)

He would call sometimes.

C (22:05)

Thought he was a regular with Mike.

B (22:07)

Because he was a. He was a Yankee.

C (22:08)

Huge Yankee.

D (22:09)

B (22:10)

Let's squeeze in Sam in Brooklyn. You're on ESPN New York. What's up, Sam?

D (22:14)

Hey, what's up, guys? Hey, it's Sam Diaz, your boy from Game is conduct.

B (22:18)

Hey, buddy. How's it going, man?

D (22:20)

I'm gonna miss. I'm gonna miss. Game misconduct. I'm gonna miss you calling the Rangers games, man. You're the best.

B (22:24)

Thank you, Sam.

D (22:26)

But good luck to you with the Devils. And. Yeah, so I want to say that you guys turned up Uptown Anthem. I was thinking about Tupac in Juice. One of the best villains in. In movie history. I think he's a great villain in that movie.

A (22:42)

It's a good. It's. It's. It's great. It's an underrated point. He's very heal in that movie.

D (22:47)

Very good in that movie. I wanted to. Two things I want to talk about Top five. I watched the Billy Joel documentary.

C (22:56)

It's really good.

D (22:57)
