Boomer & Gio

We gear up for Opening Day with Yankees rotation newsbefore scouting Jets quarterbacks and analyzing the Raiders’ roster and Jets’ win totals. Nick Swisher joins to discuss coaching and the Yankees, followed by tournament frustrations and Ben Rice’s endorsement deal. Finally, we critique a Joe Benigno impression, ponder Dave Sims’ Cameos, and celebrate the end of evenings without baseball alongside Jalen Brunson’s role in the Knicks’ resurgence.

Just one day from Opening Day, we discuss the Netflix broadcast and next season’s impending lockout before Jerry updates the Yankees rotation and Carson Benge’s start for the Mets. Gio wonders about Houston’s spring break appeal, a Texas Rangers rookie makes the roster during a mound visit, and Jerry goes around the NBA. Plus, Mika Zibanejad’s 1,000th NHL game, and we conclude with the news of a professional cornhole player facing murder charges.

Frank Reich and the Jets are sniffing around quarterbacks Carson Beck and Drew Allar, while Joshua Dobbs becomes available and Boomer predicts a veteran addition. Ty Simpson rises in mock drafts and Fernando Mendoza likely joins the Raiders, Maxx Crosby’s stay in Vegas prompts a look at the Jets’ win total. Jerry’s update covers Carlos Mendoza on Carson Benge’s opening day start, Ochocinco’s take on the St. John’s buzzer-beater, and a trip around the NBA. Azzi Fudd leads UConn over Syracuse before we see if Boomer recognizes the song "Hot Dog" by Led Zep (which you can't hear on the podcast because of outdated streaming rules).

Nick Swisher calls in to discuss the Yankees’ season and coaching his daughters in soccer. Jerry’s update includes Bo Bichette’s Opening Day preparation, LeBron James on the Pistons, and the Syracuse women’s coach’s frustration with the UConn tournament bracket. We also hear from the Memphis defensive coordinator on following the money before closing with the news that Ben’s Original Rice has hired Ben Rice as a spokesperson.

We critique a terrible Joe Benigno impersonator on Cameo. Boomer suggests Gio start doing his own impressions for the site, leading into a look at Dave Sims Cameo examples. Jerry’s final update begins with Gio receiving thanks from former co-workers for his Brandon Tierney comments and an update on Pete Hoffman’s hospital visit. After a Moment of the Day featuring more Dave Sims, we celebrate the final night without 7pm baseball and discuss Jalen Brunson’s role in the Knicks’ resurgence.
