Summary

Boomer & Gio are out this week so today it’s Al and Jerry. We started with NFL Training Camps being only days away. Jerry says for the first time in a while there is a new positive outlook for the Giants and Jets. Al strongly disagrees, he’s not falling for the hype again. Both agree they’d love to see Jameis play. Al is not buying Aaron Glenn’s tough guy act. Al is amazed at how time passes. C-Lo starts his update with the Bluejays 9-game winning streak, Al wonders if we are still mad at Canada. Our former boss Spike Eskin thinks the Mets are cheating at home. The Knicks will introduce Mike Brown, but will there be media questions? Could Thibs coach one of the new WNBA teams? In the final segment we recall the many people who had “Lin-Sanity”. A caller has some suggestions for Al’s vacation in Montana.
