B-Pod Studios They're Boston's number one afternoon show The most powerful sports radio show in New England America's number one afternoon sports show And number one in your heart And I just came here to help you're ready I'm sorry John, thank you,. Don't need it. Felger and Mass. 985, the Sports Hub.

All right, final hour, Felger and Mass. It's an agenda-free Friday. Driven by the Bernardi Auto Group. When you buy or lease your car from Bernardi, they have no agenda. They just want to get you the car you want with exceptional service. And that's it. Find your next Audi, Accura, Honda, Toyota, or more now at Bernardi Auto Group.com. You think Gasper was a little pent up there or what? Holy crap, that was unbelievable. Really? It's like you'd open the faucet and you turn it off an hour later. Okay. Sure, Badard will have an answer Tuesday at 2. In the meantime, we've got a lot to get to. We've got, obviously,

socks, Astros coming up in just under three hours, just over three hours. Now, game one of the ALCS, that's on the table. We've got Patriots Cowboys Sunday at Gillette here on 985, the sports

up. That's on the table. We've got the Bruins opening up their season Saturday and newly signed Charlie McAvoy to by far the richest contract in team history is now the fourth highest paid defenseman in the NHL based on average annual value or cap hit.

Or wherever you want to look at that big whopper of a contract. How do you feel about that?

We've got Celtics opening up next week and already already players running amok. Like what's going on there with Marcus Martin, people have been emailing me as not a team captain? Is a team captain? Yeah, I stand corrected on that. He's not. I thought that he was named one already. They haven't named any yet. That's just like one of like 14 things I've gotten wrong in the last two days.

Like I've just added to the list.

So he's not a team captain.

Anyway, they treat him like a team captain and he's already missing team flights.

So that's on the table.

Given the extension, he might as well be.

Okay.

So all that.

You want to weigh in on any of it?

By all means, your phone calls the rest of the hour. That's the deal on an agenda free Friday.

617779-0985. Ryan and Hanson on Cowboys Patriots. Go ahead.

How we doing? First time call, a long time listener. You guys are awesome. So going into Sunday afternoon's game, are you thinking the same game plan that we

did against Tampa Bay, you know, another high-powered offense? Yes. We're going to be running

the ball trying to keep decking that, you know, Z. Well, I'm not talking about that, Ryan.

I'm talking about laying back and mudding up the field and not giving up big plays and making Dallas work their way down the field with long drives, seeing if they can piece together, mistake-free 12 play drives, whatever, 10 play drives, laying back with your safeties, clogging the middle of the field, giving them underneath stuff, letting them run.

And if they can flawlessly move down the field, which they are capable of doing and scoring, well, then they score, but they've taken time off the clock, and that will keep the score down. And that's what I'm expecting defensively. Yeah, slow the tempo. Slow the tempo. Make them work for whatever points they get and try to slow down the whole pace of the game.

That to me is something they have.
