Are you ready?

For the most consequential sports weekend of the year.

The New York Yankees trying to put a stamp down that they are the clear team to beat in the American League playoffs.

And yes, the beginning of the Jackson Dart era.

We'll get to all of it.

We'll hear from Yankee fans, Met fans, giant fans throughout the day at 888-808-108-101-19.

to points and yards. Now, they had some injuries on the defensive side of the ball, but still,

the chargers are extraordinarily well coached, both on the offensive side. That's less
