Summary

It’s a rare Winner Wednesday with the Knicks, Yankees, and Mets all victorious. The Jets are scouting Russell Wilson as a potential backup for Geno Smith, despite Wilson looking a bit heavy at a Savannah Bananas game. Boomer takes calls and praises Mike Tirico before we hear Tirico’s call of the Knicks beating the Hawks and Dave Sims voicing homers from Austin Wells and Aaron Judge. We wrap up by revisiting Digital Underground and "The Humpty Dance." Sadly, you hear none of the music. Blame the RIAA.

It's the Boomer and Geo podcast from WFAN. All right, Boomer and Geo, coming you live for the build Ford Tuff Studio on the fan and CBS Sports Network. Red Pocket Mobile fan line brought to you by your new ultimate cell carrier Red Pocket Mobile. So do you have something or guys? I was going to say, yeah, I just want to remind people as we, you know, some people just got up because they watched the game last night.

0:21.5

Maybe they went to the game late last night. We've been talking about it all this morning. Today's a winner Wednesday. Yes. We don't have a lot of those. We don't. That's the Yankees and the Knicks, all won last night. All one, well, the Yankees had a little bit of a dicey run there at the end of the game. but Cam Schlittler is one of the best young pitchers in the history of Major League Baseball.

0:40.9

That's a great thing. The way that Jail and Brunson played in the fourth quarter last night, not to allow the Hawks back into the game and the way that the team flowed and the amount of players that played last night was great. Everybody's got skin in the game. They should go down to win game six. And then, of course, the Mets finally had their big inning against another horrendous team. This is why I was saying, this nine-game homestand, they had a chance to do some real damage and get themselves close to 500 again instead of talking about possibly firing their manager, as the Phillies did. Yes, absolutely.

1:11.3

Absolutely if you want to talk about any of those three teams at one last night, 888-8-8-8-2-1-9,

1:25.2

they end up drafting a quarterback.

1:26.7

We know that Gino Smith is going to be the starter, but they do need someone else in that

1:31.3

quarterback room, a veteran, as you had talked about and who that might be.

1:35.8

Russell Wilson, could he be?

1:38.3

Yeah.

1:39.1

You believe this is a good fit?

1:41.0

Yes. Do I believe it's a good fit?

1:42.5

I think it's an interesting fit, and Gino seems to like it.

1:46.0

You know, it's interesting.

1:47.0

He replaced Russell out in Seattle.

1:49.0

Yeah.

1:50.0

But this is basically what you're doing now.

1:52.0

You're trying to find the final piece, the final insurance policy, somebody that you like, that you trust, that you respect.

1:59.0

And we could all sit here and talk about, you know, the genuineness of Russell or whatever.

2:05.0

I've always felt he's a good guy, he's a respected guy, and he's not going to be your starter.
