| 0:03.7 | Follow these guys on Twitter at Toucher and Rich. Hello, Boomer. Hey, guys, good morning. You know, I know you want to talk all about Rob Grankowski and Bill Belichick, and yesterday's debacle out there in Buffalo. The fact that they still won was amazing to me because they didn't play all that well, but then again, Buffalo isn't that good. but I'm getting knee deep into Aaron Boone this morning. |
| 0:22.9 | No, yeah. |
| 0:23.6 | What did you think of that signing? I think it's amazing, really. They fired, not fired it, but they just didn't re-up Joe Girardi for Yankee manager, who had a great 10-year run here, who was a terrific manager, who obviously had a great season this year with the Yankees. |
| 0:39.0 | And now we go from that to a next level manager, which I have been calling whoever that guy |
| 0:44.9 | was going to be into that seat once Brian Keshen made his decision. |
| 0:48.8 | This is going to be interesting. |
| 0:50.4 | You know, Aaron's a smart guy, family baseball guy, the whole thing. |
| 0:53.9 | But out of the booth |
| 0:54.7 | into one of the hottest seats in all of baseball is going to be really interesting to watch. |
| 0:58.7 | All right. Let's get to the Gruncowski stuff. Do you believe he will be suspended for what he's done? |
| 1:05.3 | I don't think so. I don't think so. And the reason I say that is because they may give him a suspension, then he'll appeal, and maybe they'll rescind it, assuming that if they do give him a suspension, it would be for one game. |
| 1:18.1 | The reason I say that is Gronk has never had anything in his past, anything like this. |
| 1:23.1 | I don't know what happened to him yesterday. |
| 1:24.7 | I know he apologized after the game. |
| 1:26.8 | I know that he was frustrated during the game. |
| 1:29.3 | If I were him, I would be frustrated because every single game, you know, there's got to be five or six times where he is either being held or held up or guys are bumping into him and there are no calls because he's impossible to cover. |
| 1:43.3 | So I kind of understand that he was upset and he was frustrated, |
| 1:47.6 | but I also understand if he is not suspended, |
| 1:50.0 | there's got to be a huge fine here because what he did do yesterday |
| 1:52.9 | was completely out of character and completely unwarranted. |
| 1:56.6 | They gave the guy a head injury. |
