Summary

Hour 1 With Boomer, Gio, and Jerry in Pebble Beach, Chris McMonigle and Willie Colon fill in. The Yankees won, but C-Mac isn't impressed, finding the constant comparison to past teams annoying. Willie agrees, noting the evolution of sports. C-Lo's update highlights the Yankees' relief win and ponders the Mets' Phillies/Reds rooting interest. They expect Pete Alonso to hit his 253rd career HR. Willie dislikes joint practices. The group discusses modern slang and Shedeur Sanders. C-Mac questions how Mets fans would react if Alonso breaks the club HR record in a loss during the team's slump. Hour 2 C-Mac and Willie discuss the Yankees, Steelers, and Aaron Rodgers. C-Lo provides an update, referencing "The Sandlot" and criticizing modern language. They also touch on Giancarlo Stanton, Aaron Boone, and quarterback criticism, defending Boone while noting areas for improvement. Hour 3 C-Mac questions if the Mets will finally call up a top pitching prospect to face the Braves, a team they struggle against. C-Mac admires Gerrit Cole's mustache. C-Lo returns with an update, first addressing a previous mistake. John Sterling offered Aaron Boone advice. Willie discovers former WFAN hosts were technologically gullible. The hour ends with the announcement of marquee Knicks game dates and times. Hour 4 Willie heads to Atlanta, C-Mac to Italy, both embarrassed by their strange algorithms. They debate baseball analytics with an old man and discuss sports entertainment, bathroom reading, and barbershop adult magazines. C-Lo updates on the Yankees' win and Clint Frazier's dislike for the organization. C-Mac discusses the changing role of managers. C-Lo shares more Joe Benigno clips and asks Willie about the 2014 Jets and John Idzik. Willie recounts the team's desire for offseason additions that Idzik refused.

0:13.1

We're coming to you live from the Bill Ford Tough Studio right here at WFAN.

0:18.6

And yes, the Yankees get a win.

0:20.7

Does it matter all that much? I don't know. It's against the lousy twins they always beat. But it feels like around this part, we never just talk about what's going on. We got to delve back into all the issues that have been gone on for the last 20 years. I am tired of the past. Willie, how are you? How are we doing this morning? It made me nervous. I made you nervous? It didn't make me nervous, but I didn't know what type of mood you were in. Well, I'm in a better mood. I didn't sleep well, so I... No? It's tough to sleep when the kid's in a bed, and, you know, I woke up at 1 o'clock thinking I missed the show. Oh, that's the worst feeling. I saw a light flickering in my room and I assumed it was the sunlight coming in. And I was like, oh, no. Poor Chris. I left Chris hanging. I was just yelled about the Yankees all morning. But yes, no, I would have missed you. That's the worst, especially, you know, years behind the glass. We always have the dreams, too. It's not just the wake up, it's the dreams. The dreams. It's the worst especially I'm you know years behind the glass we always have the dreams too it's not just the wake up it's the dreams the dreams it's the oh the board op dreams of like you're locked outside the room and the show's going and you can't push the buttons and you're blanket oh that's a legit thing so Eddie has experienced us too I would think so I think we've all had the dream flees he's he's got Eddie confirmed that he has them. Not as frequently as he used to. Oh yeah. I had one like three days ago. It's part of the... And this is your what for you? 13? It was on the day where I took off. And just for whatever reason, like my mind was guilting me for not being here. That's the worst thing as a ball player, man. There were times that I, like, especially big game week, you know,

1:45.7

we got a big robbery come up.

1:40.8

Yeah. I would sleep hard. I just didn't sleep well. And I would pop up like in middle of the night thinking like I missed the first half of the game. Yeah. But like wake up in like a panting like that. Yeah, no, it's scary. I'm telling you.

1:42.3

I fell a little bit of that last night.

2:19.7

Well, I feel like we can't escape the dream or nightmare of the past of these franchises. I was thinking about this all day yesterday. I was listening to the fan and on social media as well. Like I'm Joel Sherman, a lot around the Yankees specifically. But I was thinking about the teams in general because every time, like, I know the Yankees have struggled here. And we understand that they have a lot of similar things in common throughout the past.

2:24.1

But it just feels like we can never just talk about the team.

2:27.6

Every time we talk about the Yankee struggles, it's like this every year.

2:32.4

Brian Cashman and the organization.

2:34.6

This goes back to 2004.

2:37.2

This is just a debacle.

2:38.9

Everyone needs to clean house.

2:40.5

How is this tolerated?

2:41.7

The same thing instead of just looking at this team.

2:43.6

And it's the same thing.

2:45.2

And going the other way too.

2:46.5

Like Aaron Boone, there's plenty of teams that are in the same position we are that have been worse than we are and we found a way.

2:52.3

Like we never just break down like what's up with this team right now?
