New NFL Kickoff Rule

Marker 01

Long Form (multi topic, hourly/full show)

Hour 1

Gio is worried about the future of the NFL after seeing the new kickoff rule in action last night. He has become the old man grumbling that he used to mock. Is this just the tip of the iceberg? Boomer says no. Gio thinks this is a more radical rule change than anything he’s seen, including the ghost runner in extra innings. Boomer thinks the rule will lead to more offense and maybe more kicker injuries. Jerry is here for his first update and has the play-by-play call of the riveting first kickoff with the new rule. Adam Schein is all-in on Caleb Williams and the Bears winning a Super Bowl within five years. Boomer says the Cowboys have no choice but to pay Dak Prescott, who has earned a big contract. Paul Blackburn will make his Mets debut tonight. Feel the excitement. Pat LaFrieda joined Evan & Tiki and made a comment about men eating his meat. Did he know what he was saying or was it a happy accident? In the final segment of the hour, Gio tells us that Jordan Davis had Caitlin Clark on stage with him last night. We take some credit for helping launch his career with the boat party. Danielle McCartan left us a diffuser after last weekend’s studio spill.

Hour 2

Boomer wonders what Anthony Rizzo’s role will be if/when he returns from the injured list. Gio thinks he will be a part-time player. The Yankees have some questions but Gio says the biggest one is will they hit in the postseason. Boomer reminds Gio that he predicted Christan Scott’s injury. He says the same thing about every young pitcher. After yesterday’s show we learned that Imane Khelif is not transgender. She was born a woman with a genetic condition that led to her not meeting certain eligibility requirements. Jerry is back for an update but first Gio has us guess which headline is real.It’s another stumper as Boomer and Jerry can’t believe a man inserted a 26 inch eel up his anus. Scottie Scheffler gave a very Jerry-like quote about life ending and being forgotten. Amani Toomer ripped Caleb Williams on Craig Carton’s show. Justin Herbert has a foot injury. Boomer says watch out for that achilles. Mike Trout is out for the season. Barstool’s Frankie Borrelli, who Boomer and Gio golfed with, was out on the course with Mathew Barzal. In the final segment of the hour, Gio reveals that our friends at Shinesty have reached out to French diver Jules Bouyer, who has a large package that we discussed recently. A caller has a good line about the fella who stuck the eel up his anus. 

Hour 3

Gio points out that Jerry has been on a roll with predictions lately. Jerry thinks the Giants can have a winning season and the Jets will be in the Super Bowl. Gio believes in the Jets because of Jerry but tells everyone to pump the brakes with the Giants. Most people around football think they will be terrible. Gio recalls how Mike and the Mad Dog’s “win/loss” segments used to sound. Ryan Tannehill could be this year’s Joe Flacco. A delusional caller says Daniel Jones is Peyton Manning Jr. Gio believes Jones must be GREAT, not just good, to stop the Giants from moving on. Jerry returns for an update but first tells us how he got poison ivy. He has a large rash on his arm. Jerry has another rodent problem in his backyard. Mike Tomlin askes EA Sports for a visual of the new kickoff rules. You can ask a hotel concierge for virtual reality porn. John Mara didn’t want to let Saquon go but trusted his football people. The Jets have a lot riding on Will McDonald this year. A big stretch for the Mets begins in Anaheim tonight. In the final segment of the hour, Boomer and Gio react to the NFL Sunday Ticket verdict getting overturned. Gio plans on cleaning up all his subscriptions when he returns from Italy.

Hour 4

The NFL’s new kickoff debuted last night and Gio is not a fan. We could really be headed for two-hand touch in the NFL. Which famous landmarks around the world are overrated? Jerry returns for his final update of the day but first we discuss the traffic yesterday being worse than ever. In general it has been rough lately. John Mara still believes in Daniel Jones. He expects big things and said that the offensive line didn’t block for Jones last season. Jerry has a suggestion for a family bet. He wants to get crazy and bet the White Sox -1.5 runs to win and end their losing streak. Paul Blackburn will meet his new Mets teammates today. Hopefully he doesn’t stink. The Moment of The Day involves Gio setting up “win/loss” as only Mad Dog could. In the final segment of the day, Gio says the Mets and Yankees better keep playing well while he’s on vacation. We will be at Jets camp when Gio returns from Italy. Hopefully Aaron Rodgers isn’t as awkward this year. Al went on a cruise to Bermuda. Maybe the Mets and Yankees will go undefeated while Boomer and Gio are on vacation.
