Summary

Jerry and Willie Colon end 2025 with a New Year’s Eve mix of locker room lessons and office chaos. From Willie’s legendary first encounter with Mike Francesa and his "kumbaya" critique of modern athletes to the mystery of finding expired 2014 Mountain Dew in the studio. The guys dive deep into the Jets' effort issues, the Trevon Diggs fallout, and Willie’s hilarious story of meeting Mario Lemieux without a clue who he was.

What is up, Mr. Colon? How are you? What's going on, Jerry? All as well. Happy New Year's to everybody. Excited for the day. Are you excited for the day? Well, I mean, it's a good day of reflection. You get to spend it with your family. hopefully you have a little tradition we talked a little bit about that yesterday so we'll see

it is a day of reflection. As a matter of fact, I will spend it with my family. Not sure how much reflecting I will do. So you're going to be in bed by what time? I would say eight. Eight o'clock. Yeah, eight o'clock. What do you think, man? I mean, Jerry, that's kind of... Old. I'll make a deal with you. I'll make a deal with you. You set the alarm for 2.30 a.m. for 17 straight years, and then we'll talk in year 17. I know the resume, Jerry. I don't know. There's nothing to do with resume. It has to do with the beating that my body has taken for the last 17 years. Would you also be like you would feel bad if you went to bed at? Uh, no, could I push through? Sure. And I've done that. You know, there's a lot of trips with Rutgers we get back at, you know, that's what I thought. One a.m. come over here, maybe take a nap for an hour or two.

1:45.2

I could do that, but that's because I have to do that.

1:47.6

But you would be the only one up, like the family does it plan on stadium? No, my wife would stay up. My kids are, I mean, my boys. I mean, it's up until 2 o'clock in the morning every night. Pop champagne, how each other. those days are long over if i was off tomorrow then i 100% i'd be up tonight but we're working

2:51.0

But we're working tomorrow. So no, I'll be in bed by 8 o'clock. And when I wake up, it'll be 2026. It'll be like, nothing changed. And we'll be sitting here wondering, what do we discuss today? Because there's been a whole hell of a lot of nothing going on the last couple of days. But it is a fun night for a lot of people. I do enjoy all the commercials for the various programs that will take you to midnight. Some look better than others. I'm not going to mention one that I saw yesterday that I thought was odd. A lot of old performers. I'm like, right, they're definitely going for the old audience with this show. And then you got the one in Nashville, which is pretty cool, which is pretty cool. And they're all over. And all the networks have their own shows. But what channel, excuse me or not, I apologize. What, what, maybe Romney can help me with this? Remember when Gromk did it, the ball with Steve Harvey? I don't. That was like, that was a couple years ago. No. That was probably sleeping at 8 o'clock.

2:51.9

You were.

3:42.9

Yeah. Gronk was bombed, but they had made a Lego statuette of Steve Harvey's head, right? Like this big Lego piece. And Gronk took it and did the Gronk spike. And broken pieces. It's shattered. The funniest part about that, I don't think Steve Harvey knew who Grank was or his personality and so when Grank was being Gronged he was out he looked bombed right he was tank Steve Harvey looked like the camera for a second like who is this white boy and like get me get me away from him right now because Grong was just being was just being Gron. You know, he's loud. I believe it. And he's wearing, like, an old football, like the leather head helmet style thing Glock was. And I thought that was the most entertaining thing of the night for the New Year because everybody was like, Steve Harvey and Gronk. Like, okay, I guess we'll buy it. And it looked like Steve Harvey got trapped in on a bus with like a gorilla.

3:46.1

Like he was just in the cage and he couldn't recover.

3:47.5

No, the whole night.

3:49.5
