Summary

Gio stirred controversy by calling Karl-Anthony Towns a "loser" in reference to his playoff performance with the Knicks, drawing criticism from Carl Banks, whom Gio dismissed as poor in media. The discussion also covered KAT's inconsistent playoff play and the Mets' 4-3 ten-inning victory over the Dodgers, featuring another Lindor leadoff home run. Other sports news included the Angels' historic three-homer first inning at Fenway, the retirement of the Lions and Patriots centers, and Aaron Judge's inability to leave his hotel due to fan mobs, prompting Boomer to reflect on the impact of phone cameras on athlete privacy.
