Show Notes
Aaron Boone is returning for a 10th season with the Yankees, and Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber believe the organization is wasting its chance to make a much-needed change. Is the looming MLB lockout the only reason Boone still has a job? With the Yankees stuck in a cycle of postseason disappointment, Evan questions why the team would bring back a lame-duck manager instead of pursuing Alex Cora or Carlos Beltran.
Meanwhile, the Giants have released Najee Harris just days after he complained about his limited carries. Was the timing a coincidence, or did Harris talk his way out of New York? Tiki weighs in on the running back situation, Tyrone Tracy's opportunity, and whether the Giants could pursue Jonathan Taylor. Plus, Evan shares a hilariously fitting Jets airplane disaster, the guys debate the Jets' future under Aaron Glenn, and Knicks fans prepare to pay outrageous prices for opening night's championship banner ceremony.
More from Evan & Tiki
Bradfo catches up with two former Mets turned Rays, Freddy Peralta and Steven Matz to discuss their journeys to the World Series, what has changed since their Mets days, Matz's memories of the Mets World Series run, and more!
Evan Roberts is officially nervous about the Jets, and a matchup with the winless Miami Dolphins suddenly feels like a potential disaster. Despite Miami's ugly record, Evan warns that the Dolphins are better than people think, while the Jets continue to sabotage themselves with costly penalties, red-zone failures, and an offense that can't get Garrett Wilson the football. Tiki Barber weighs in on Frank Reich's struggles and why another sloppy performance could effectively end the Jets' season.
The Knicks' championship ring celebration has turned into a controversy for all the wrong reasons! Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber agree that assistant coaches receiving their rings late is hardly a scandal. But Madison Square Garden sending employees a fake offer to choose championship rings as a phishing test, when some may not receive rings at all, is a different story. Evan and Tiki blast the stunt as mean-spirited and question how anyone thought it was a good idea.
Evan and Tiki preview the Giants and Jets as they get ready for week 7 in the NFL. Can JJ McCarthy be the guy? Will the Jets take care of business against the winless Dolphins? Connor Hellebuyck gets traded to the Devils. Shaun's rooting guide. Idiots with Idioms. Week 7 picks.
