Jerry and Willie Colon tackle a lot in New York sports, diving into the "stuck and miserable" reality of the Jets' locker room culture and the Giants' search for a new leader among candidates like Mike McCarthy and Brian Flores.

It's Friday, December 19th, and Norm is doing that thing where he calmly lays out the facts… while quietly setting the building on fire.After dumping Mike McCarthy for a 7–10 season (even with Dak missing half the year), the Cowboys hired Brian Schottenheimer and sold everyone the “new coach, new culture, new results” dream. Fast-forward to now: 6–7–1, which is basically the same meal served on a newer plate.Norm runs through the offseason shopping spree and the draft picks that actually look like real football players… then asks the obvious question: how are they still mediocre? Spoiler: it's hard to look at a defense giving up 30 points per game and not start writing farewell cards.Then we get to the main event: Matt Eberflus' countdown clock. Jerry Jones loves the offense (who wouldn't?) but hates the defense with the intensity of a man who knows the actuarial tables and is very aware the last NFC Championship appearance was… 30 years ago. After the Vikings game where J.J. McCarthy looked like Tom Brady (no sacks, career-best passer rating), Jerry goes public: he's “fine with the players,” but the system isn't working. Which is convenient, because if it's not the system… well… then it's the roster. And if it's the roster… who built it?Exactly.

Send us a text#076. What does it really mean to build generational wealth — and how do you pass it on without losing your kids in the process? In this episode, I sit down with Mike McCarthy — serial entrepreneur, co-founder of GoBundance, former leader in the growth of Keller Williams, and author of The Miracle Morning for Parents and Families. Mike has helped scale businesses doing billions in sales, but what sets him apart is how intentionally he applies leadership, discipline, and values inside his own home.At the heart of this conversation is a powerful idea: give kids the flint, not the fire. Instead of simply handing down money or opportunity, Mike explains why parents must focus on preparing the heir — teaching responsibility, stewardship, and self-mastery — long before wealth ever changes hands.We also explore one of the most important parenting principles you'll hear: connection before correction. Especially with adolescents, Mike shares why maintaining trust, presence, and relationship is the foundation that makes guidance, discipline, and financial lessons actually stick.This episode is filled with practical frameworks parents can implement immediately, including:How to teach financial responsibility through skin in the game, not handoutsWhy you need to prioritize connection before correctionWhy preparing heirs matters more than preparing estatesA weekly family meeting that becomes the operating system for your homeA simple daily routine — CHARMS — to help kids build discipline, confidence, and self-masteryHow to raise money-smart kids without entitlement, control, or burnoutThis is a conversation for parents, entrepreneurs, and leaders who want their success to strengthen their family — not come at its expense.If you're focused on raising grounded, capable kids and building a legacy that goes far beyond money, this episode with Mike McCarthy is a must-listen.Show notes and more at:https://moneydadpodcast.com/session076Support the show

Marc "Moose" Malusis doesn't hold back on the December 18, 2025 edition of The Fan, ripping into David Stearns' brutal handling of the Mets core. With fan favorites Pete Alonso (now an Oriole) and Edwin Diaz (now a Dodger) gone, Moose questions why the richest owner in sports couldn't "show the love" to keep elite talent. He examines the risky pivot to Devin Williams and the analytical "vision" that has left Queens unrecognizable. Moose also tackles the New York Giants' chaotic season, slamming "dopey" suggestions to trade quarterback Jaxson Dart and calling for a "proven commodity" like Mike McCarthy or Mike Tomlin to clean up the building.
Marc "Moose" Malusis steps behind the mic for a fiery mid-day session, taking aim at the state of New York sports. He starts by dissecting the Rangers' identity crisis, arguing they have too many "fourth-liners" and questioning if it's time to trade Artemi Panarin while his value is high. Malusis then turns his heat toward the Yankees, labeling them "self-satisfied" and lacking the "Evil Empire" motivation needed to keep pace with the powerhouse Dodgers. On the Mets' side, the Moose doesn't hold back on David Stearns, questioning the negotiation tactics with Edwin Diaz and the refusal to pay Pete Alonso. Between sports takes, Marc shares a hilarious yet harrowing story of his entire family falling ill, emphasizing the "Happy Wife, Happy Life" philosophy as he spent a week cleaning vomit and Lysol-ing his home just to get a "reprieve" at the studio. Finally, he looks at the Giants' coaching search, demanding a proven resume like Mike McCarthy or Mike Tomlin to fix a culture of "nonsense."
If the Giants land the top pick, we debate if they trade the selection for a haul of picks or take Fernando Mendoza—especially since they love Jaxson Dart! Plus, find out why Boomer says Mike McCarthy is absolutely not the answer for the next Giants head coach.
We kick off with the Giants' No. 1 pick dilemma: Trade the pick to keep Jaxson Dart or grab Mendoza? Boomer also shuts down the idea of Mike McCarthy coaching the team. Then, Jerry delivers his final update, highlighting the Jets and Giants' combined 5-23 record with sound from the losing QBs and winning coaches. Plus, we break down the Mets' signing of Jorge Polanco and if Francisco Lindor could be next to go, before closing the hour with the shocking news of the alleged murder of Rob Reiner and his wife.

BT & Sal dive into the buzz surrounding the Diddy documentary, highlighting the "unreal" vintage footage and the early rise of the hip-hop mogul. The conversation shifts to a fiery debate over the 2026 Baseball Hall of Fame ballot, triggered by a voter who submitted a ballot with only David Wright's name. Sal and BT dissect their differing picks, agreeing on Carlos Beltran and Felix Hernandez, but clashing over Andy Pettitte and closers like K-Rod. They also tackle the elephant in the room: whether A-Rod and Manny Ramirez should be let in despite their PED use. In football, they debate whether the Giants should gamble on the past glory of Bill Belichick or the program stability of Mike McCarthy, acknowledging the "purgatory" status of the Yankees. The show concludes with a special "Call from Down Under" from a loyal Mets fan in Australia seeking solutions for the Mets' dire pitching situation, which Sal labels "slop."
It’s Thanksgiving, which means we’re stuffing ourselves instead of the episode schedule. While we’re gone, enjoy one of our favorite episodes from earlier this season. ----- In this fiery episode of the Team of Rivals Podcast, Ron, Elliott, and Pete tear into the latest MLB drama with all the fire and flair you’d expect. It kicks off with Ron going off on the Dodgers' controversial signing of Roki Sasaki, sparking a heated debate about the growing imbalance in the game. Ron’s so fed up with baseball’s direction, he might just quit being a fan altogether. The guys then stumble upon a shocking discovery – another podcast using the Team of Rivals name! Naturally, they debate whether to send in the lawyers or just invite the copycats on for a showdown. They dive into the absurdity of not even Googling your podcast name before launching and the lengths people will go for some lazy branding. Things take a turn when Pete rips into Cubs fans for rolling out the red carpet for Sammy Sosa’s return at this weekend’s Cubs Convention. Pete’s not having it, especially with Sammy’s nonstop thirst for attention – he’s fired up, to say the least. The mood lightens as the trio shifts gears to honor the legendary Bob Uecker, sharing some of their favorite stories and clips from his career. Ueck’s humor and wit made him a beloved icon in the world of baseball broadcasting, and the guys give him the shout-out he deserves. Finally, the guys wrap things up with a chat about the Chicago Bears’ coaching search, tossing around names like Mike McCarthy and wondering if the team can finally find a leader who’ll bring some much-needed success. It's a jam-packed episode full of rants, laughs, and some seriously hot takes. You won’t want to miss it!
Why do fans not treat Mike McCarthy the same way as Sean Payton?
BT & Sal dissect Giants Head Coach Mike Kafka's decision to fire Defensive Coordinator Shane Bowen, with Kafka citing a lack of "results" after a few weeks of evaluation. Sal respects the move as "coaching one on one" and a step toward "self-preservation" for Kafka, but BT questions why it took so long. The conversation spirals into a fiery debate over the Giants' future, where one caller's "horrible ideas"—to hire Mike McCarthy, keep Kafka as OC, and bring back Wink Martindale—are shredded by BT for having "zero points for plausibility." Sal and a caller then clash with BT over fan expectations, with the caller boldly predicting eleven wins next year, leading BT to furiously demand the fan base get a "grasp of reality" after a decade of failure and another 2-10 start. Sal, however, argues the Giants have an advantage over other struggling teams because they already have their quarterback.
BT & Sal dive into the New York Giants' head coaching search, sparked by a caller who demands a total "clean house." The hosts debate whether interim coach Mike Kafka should get a serious shot, or if the Giants need to prioritize an experienced leader. Tierney makes a case for proven coaches like Mike McCarthy (who won games without Dak Prescott) and Sean McDermott, while dismissing younger coordinators like Chris Shula. Sal argues that former Dolphins coach Brian Flores is the best defensive option if they go that route, despite the lawsuit. They fiercely question the logic of passing on an experienced, successful coach like Zac Taylor (Super Bowl run) for an "unknown" coordinator. Finally, the discussion shifts to the team's appealing assets—a young quarterback, Malik Neighbors, and a potential top draft pick—leading to the question: Do the Giants trade their high pick for more capital, or take a top talent?
BT & Sal dive into a fiery discussion covering coaching chaos and major league free agency. In football, they debate the next Giants Head Coach, agreeing that the organization needs "stability" and experienced leadership like Mike McCarthy or Sean McDermott, making the "unknown" risk of promoting Kafka or hiring an untested coordinator like Chris Shula unacceptable. On the diamond, the focus is on the Yankees' offseason priorities. They clash over whether to pursue Kyle Tucker or Cody Bellinger (Sal prefers Tucker, BT values Bellinger's versatility). The biggest debate centers on a potential trade for Corey Seager. BT is willing to take the chance on the two-time World Series MVP despite his injury history, believing his October prowess is worth the risk. Sal vehemently opposes the move, seeing Seager's recurring hamstring issues and massive $190M contract as a recipe for a "Stanton disaster" and proof the Yankees continue to chase players whose best years are behind them. They also scrutinize Cashman's comments on the outfield, calling his contingency plan "unacceptable."
BT & Sal dive into the Giants' most critical storyline: the return of QB Jaxson Dart and the interim head coaching debut of Mike Kafka. They debate whether Kafka's new role is his best chance to distinguish himself as a viable head coaching candidate and if he'll move away from the "idiotic" play-calling that exposed Dart to injury under Daboll. The hosts slam the mindset of fans who want to "put Dart in bubble wrap," arguing that playing is essential for his development and competitive spirit. The conversation also covers the perennial optimism of some Giants fans, questioning how they can feel "close" when the team is definitively 2-9. The hosts discuss Brian Cashman's annual charity sleep-out, wondering how he handles a "dangerous world" and nighttime bathroom breaks. Finally, they look at the coaching carousel, debating if Kafka should stay on if a "big boy" like Sean McDermott or Mike McCarthy is hired, or if he should use his improved resume to find a head coaching or coordinator job elsewhere.
On today's show, Pat, AJ Hawk, and the boys preview tonight's Thursday Night Football game between the Bills and Texans, and look ahead at this weekend's slate as they set the table for week 12 of the NFL season. Joining the progrum to chat about tonight's game, and some of the biggest storylines around the NFL is NFL on Prime color commentator and the voice and face of college football, Kirk Herbstreit. Later, Super Bowl Champion, former Head Coach of the Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys, Mike McCarthy joins the progrum to preview tonight's TNF game, chat about managing rookies and how you develop young QB's at this point in the season, and much more. Next, CB for the Miami Dolphins fresh off a game sealing INT in Madrid, Jack Jones joins the show to chat about this Dolphins team as a whole, playing for Mike McDaniel, and why things seem like they're trending upward. Lastly, 12 year NFL veteran at QB, ESPN NFL analyst/QB guru Dan Orlovsky joins the show from the side of the highway to give his thoughts on JJ McCarthy and if the Vikings are in trouble, or if they'll be okay long term.

Hour 4: Evan and Shaun take calls on possible future Giants coaches and Shaun, Loogy, and Evan debate the merit of Mike McCarthy. That and much more.
BT & Sal are incensed by the latest reports on Giants rookie Abdul Carter, who was benched for a drive due to repeatedly sleeping/missing meetings and a walkthrough. They slam the lack of accountability that started under former head coach Brian Daboll and criticize Carter's flimsy social media defense that he was "recovering." Sal argues that Mike Kafka's light punishment (a drive on special teams) was too weak and a failure to establish necessary control over a locker room "littered with losers." The conversation shifts to the Jets, reacting to the breaking news that Tyrod Taylor will start at quarterback over Justin Fields. BT and Sal express zero expectations for the move but agree it's necessary to evaluate the vertical threats like rookie TE Mason Taylor. The segment also covers potential Giants head coaching candidates, with BT backing Brian Flores as the necessary disciplinarian and Sal supporting Mike McCarthy. Finally, they debate the dramatic possibility of trading Dexter Lawrence to shake up the spiraling organization.
On today's show, Pat, AJ Hawk, and the boys preview tonight's Thursday Night Football game between the Jets and Patriots, and wonder if this game is going to be a national spotlight for the Patriots officially being back. Joining the show to discuss the breaking news that CFP chair Mack Rhoades has stepped down and what implications that carries/what comes next is ESPN College Football reporter/insider, Heather Dinich. Later, Super Bowl Champion, former Head Coach of the Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys, Mike McCarthy joins the progrum to preview tonight's TNF game, chat about managing rookies at this point in the season, his thoughts on the MVP race, the Monday Night game between the Eagles and Packers, and much more.

I sprinted downstairs after that Eagles loss, fuming like never before—eight straight quarters of pure offensive dysfunction that rivals the Mike McCarthy firing era. This episode unleashes raw frustration over Jordan Love's panic throws, dropped passes, boneheaded penalties, and an offense handed victory on a silver platter only to choke it away. We're diving deep into the embarrassment, from wide-open receivers ignored to that final sequence encapsulating the nightmare. Ranting on the offense's epic failures: Jordan Love's unnecessary sacks, Josh Jacobs' mental lapses, and receivers like Wicks dropping sure catches while Watson shines as the lone bright spot. Debating Matt LaFleur's hot seat—play calling isn't the issue, but if players keep quitting on him, he's gone, complete with a wild imagined locker room firing speech. Praising the defense for holding strong and handing opportunities the offense squandered, plus why betting against the Packers is paying off big. Bold take: This level of sloppiness isn't fixable without major changes—eight quarters of looking drunk, stoned, and concussed demands accountability. This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

I sprinted downstairs after that Eagles loss, fuming like never before—eight straight quarters of pure offensive dysfunction that rivals the Mike McCarthy firing era. This episode unleashes raw frustration over Jordan Love's panic throws, dropped passes, boneheaded penalties, and an offense handed victory on a silver platter only to choke it away. We're diving deep into the embarrassment, from wide-open receivers ignored to that final sequence encapsulating the nightmare. Ranting on the offense's epic failures: Jordan Love's unnecessary sacks, Josh Jacobs' mental lapses, and receivers like Wicks dropping sure catches while Watson shines as the lone bright spot. Debating Matt LaFleur's hot seat—play calling isn't the issue, but if players keep quitting on him, he's gone, complete with a wild imagined locker room firing speech. Praising the defense for holding strong and handing opportunities the offense squandered, plus why betting against the Packers is paying off big. Bold take: This level of sloppiness isn't fixable without major changes—eight quarters of looking drunk, stoned, and concussed demands accountability. This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

Joe Schoen should be following Brian Daboll out of the Giants' facility. Mike McCarthy is not the right guy for the next Giants HC.
Mike McCarthy could be a logical Giants Head Coach
