BT & Sal dive into the hot stove debate surrounding Pete Alonso's free agency, with Tierney predicting a "robust" market—possibly including the Red Sox—that forces the Mets into a tough decision on a five- or six-year contract. Sal, however, remains skeptical, arguing he doesn't see a "significantly better offer" emerging despite the slugger's improved year and the absence of a qualifying offer. The discussion also veers into a larger question about New York sports: Do high taxes, traffic, and media pressure make the area less desirable for top free agents who no longer need "Madison Avenue" endorsements to maximize their off-field earnings? Plus, they briefly slam the Giants' worsening track record under GM Joe Schoen.
BT & Sal kick off by addressing the "elephant in the room"—the widely rumored return of Craig Carton—and how it impacts their future. The debate immediately shifts to a fiery attack on the Giants, with Sal declaring GM Joe Schoen's tenure a "fireable offense" for overseeing the team's regression, while Tierney argues the job is suddenly "incredibly appealing" due to QB Jaxson Dart. They debate the fit of a veteran GM like Thomas Dimitroff and whether Bill Belichick's baggage is too much for the New York spotlight. In a Yankees Hot Stove segment, they debate Kyle Tucker's price tag, Sal demands a hard stop at eight years, and they analyze the potential "Superpower Strategy" of trading for an ace like Max Fried or Tarik Skubal to create the league's best rotation. The Mets debate centers on Pete Alonso's free agency, with Tierney predicting a "robust" market (including the Red Sox) that forces the Mets to pay, while Sal dismisses the notion of a significantly better offer emerging. They also discuss the Jets' momentum trending up versus the Giants' organizational rot. Finally, they tackle the hilarious and controversial Three Random Questions: Would you date a porn star? (a nod to the viral fake Soto tweet), What's the worst part of being married? (losing your schedule/having to fake interest), and What's the best part of being married? (having a supportive teammate).

BT & Sal are infuriated by the Giants' "ass-backwards" decision to fire head coach Brian Daboll while retaining GM Joe Schoen and allowing him to lead the search for a new coach. Sal argues that the Giants' failure to clean house is a continuation of decades of "ineptitude." Tierney is "genuinely stunned," questioning why any "battle-tested adult" coach with a winning resume would hitch their wagon to a GM "hanging by a thread" and pointing out that Schoen's roster depth is "pathetic." The hosts dissect the stunning quote in the press release that they feel Schoen "assembled a good young nucleus," given his track record of major busts like Evan Neal. They conclude that by splitting the ticket, the Giants chose the absolute "worst option," dooming the franchise to more losing.
BT & Sal ignite the discussion on the Giants' coaching chaos, arguing that the team's rot goes beyond the firing of Brian Daboll and demanding to know the true fate of GM Joe Schoen. NFL Insider Brian Baldinger joins the fire, directly blaming Daboll's risky play-calling for the injuries to quarterback Jaxson Dart, specifically citing a dangerous protection call and unnecessary running plays. The conversation shifts to the coaching search, with Sal arguing the Giants job is highly attractive due to Dart, while the hosts slam the "stupid argument" that Belichick's success should be disregarded due to Tom Brady. Finally, in Three Random Questions, the hosts dive into a tricky personal question: If you could take a "Soulmate Test" that reveals your true match, would you do it? The hypothetical leads to humorous and fiery takes on marriage, temptation, and the nature of fate.
BT & Sal are furious at the Giants' "idiotic decision" to fire Head Coach Brian Daboll while retaining GM Joe Schoen to lead the next coaching search. They slam Schoen's track record—including his draft misses and the handling of the roster—arguing he hasn't "earned the right" to hire another coach, which they say proves the franchise is "lost" and "accepting losing." NFL Insider Brian Baldinger joins the fire to dissect Daboll's risky play-calling and its impact on QB Jaxson Dart. The discussion also dives into the murky waters of ownership (and John Mara's health), a fiery segment of "Bald Faced Lie, Bald Faced Truth" baseball predictions, and Sal's ticket jinx, where a free Rangers game was pulled right before the team broke its scoring drought. Finally, the segment ends with a heated hypothetical: Would you take a Soulmate Test that reveals your true match?

BT & Sal react to the breaking news: Brian Daboll has been fired as Giants head coach, with Mike Kafka named the interim. The discussion quickly turns fiery over the baffling decision to keep both GM Joe Schoen and DC Shane Bowen, a move Sal calls "horrendous." Tierney argues the Giants are a "predictable disaster," repeating the mistake of an uncoordinated timeline, while Sal believes the job remains "very appealing" due to the potential of Jaxson Dart. The hosts debate who is more "culpable" for the losing—Daboll or Schoen—and play an old, fascinating clip of Jon Gruden grilling Dart about his "reckless" playing style. The segment closes with a heated discussion on potential replacements, weighing the risks of Bill Belichick and the "high ceiling" of Jon Gruden against the safer, more successful track record of Mike McCarthy.

BT & Sal erupt over the report suggesting the Giants might split the ticket, keeping GM Joe Schoen while firing coach Brian Daboll. They argue this would be an "epic disaster", as both men deserve to go after three consecutive two-and-seven starts. Sal gives Daboll slight credit for developing Jaxson Dart, but ultimately insists the only acceptable outcome is a total culture reset—firing both to pursue a winning coach. The hosts dissect Schoen's "bad" draft record and argue the winning is all that matters. They also take a furious detour into the "Streaming Hell" of modern sports viewing, complaining about too many apps (Peacock, Apple, YouTube TV) and the constant inconvenience of trying to watch a game from home.
BT & Sal unleash a torrent of criticism after the Giants' brutal 2-7 start, declaring that John Mara's patience is now a clear mistake. The hosts argue that after four years, the results are an "absolute failure," making the firing of both GM Joe Schoen and Head Coach Brian Daboll justifiable and necessary. They savage the team's "lack of want" and "player regression," pointing to plays where even star Dexter Lawrence appeared to quit, calling it a direct indictment of the coaching staff. The segment concludes with a plea for ownership to impose a "freeze on everything" at the upcoming trade deadline, arguing that a "dead man walking" regime should not be allowed to make decisions on the future roster.
BT and Sal unleash a fiery assessment of the New York Giants following their latest crushing loss, tearing into GM Joe Schoen and Head Coach Brian Daboll over a dreadful three-and-eighteen record in their last 21 games. They argue that four years is long enough, and even the "silver lining" of Jaxson Dart's potential can't save the regime, especially with the defense being constantly "gashed." Sal stresses the job should now be appealing to a new coach because of Dart, but BT cautions against giving the rookie QB "savior" status too quickly, fearing the New York media could "ruin" him like they did Sam Darnold. They discuss the NFL's "insane" new landscape (like going for fourth-and-seventeen!) contrasting it with the perpetual failures of the New York teams. Finally, BT recounts his desperate (and unreturned) attempt to hook up Knicks tickets for a family surprise, wondering if he should "respectfully kick the tires" on his request.
BT and Sal unleash a fiery barrage on the Giants' front office and coaching staff, definitively declaring the tenures of GM Joe Schoen and Head Coach Brian Daboll "absolutely over." The hosts argue that the team's abysmal performance—including a third straight 2-7 start, horrific play-calling, and a total lack of effort on defense—is indefensible, even with the emergence of QB Jaxson Dart. They reject the idea that keeping Daboll is necessary to preserve Dart's development, demanding that John Mara fire both men to prevent the next regime from inheriting a losing culture and a poorly constructed roster. The hosts slam the team for being "weak, disengaged, and poorly built," concluding that after four years and no stability, a complete organizational overhaul is the only recourse.
BT and Sal unleash a fiery, no-holds-barred assault on the New York Giants, definitively declaring the tenures of GM Joe Schoen and Head Coach Brian Daboll "absolutely over" following a dreadful 3-8 record in their last 21 games. The hosts slam the team for being "weak, disengaged, and poorly built," demanding an immediate organizational "clean house" to break the "Giants' Cycle of Suck." While they acknowledge rookie QB Jaxson Dart as the "only silver lining" that makes the job appealing to a new coach, BT cautions against giving him "savior" status too soon, fearing the New York media could "ruin" him like Sam Darnold. The discussion shifts to the Baseball Hall of Fame ballot, as the guys fiercely debate the "Case for Mattingly's Immortality" alongside the fate of legends like Bonds and Clemens. Finally, they dive into the emotional fallout of the World Series and the tough business decision facing the Mets with closer Edwin Diaz.
BT & Sal torch the Giants' 2-6 record in their fourth year under Brian Daboll, arguing that finding a franchise QB in Jaxson Dart should have improved the win column, making the continued failures inexcusable. They demand accountability from both Daboll and GM Joe Schoen, especially given past players like Daniel Jones and Saquon Barkley finding success elsewhere. The hosts also rage over the horrendous officiating in the loss to the Eagles, focusing on the "tush push" controversy that should mandate a rule change. Finally, they discuss the "cruel" and career-altering ankle injury to Cam Skattebo, lamenting the loss of his energy and swagger for a fan base desperate for hope.

Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News delivered fiery insight into the New York Giants' decision to bench Russell Wilson for rookie Jaxson Dart, revealing a deep-seated divide between Head Coach Brian Daboll and the front office/ownership. According to Leonard, Daboll, who is firmly on the hot seat at 0-3, has wanted to play Dart from the start and is now making a desperation move to save his job, viewing Dart as his "guy" to ride or die with. This unilateral decision, made against the backdrop of a pre-ordained agreement to start Wilson, has exposed a major philosophical disagreement on the quarterback position and suggests that the collaborative pairing of Daboll and GM Joe Schoen is no longer in lockstep, raising the possibility of a Schoen/Daboll split at the end of the season.
