A bold claim that Patriots vs Seahawks is the least appealing Super Bowl of the last decade. To prove it, the guys run through Super Bowls year by year, comparing pregame intrigue, star power, coaches, quarterbacks, and overall buzz. Brady vs Mahomes, Stafford's redemption, dynasties, underdogs, and first-time contenders all get stacked up against this matchup, and nearly all of them come out ahead. The debate dives into why this Super Bowl feels flat, whether it is fatigue with familiar franchises, less compelling versions of past dynasties, or simply a lack of must-see characters. It wraps with a Monday gut prediction that this game could get ugly, even if opinions might change by kickoff.
The release of thousands of Jeffrey Epstein related emails puts uncomfortable attention on the NFL, including the naming of New York Giants minority owner Steve Tisch. The discussion breaks down why some mentions are meaningless, why others can seriously damage reputations, and why this one sits in a very different category. The guys question why national NFL media largely ignored the story, what responsibility Roger Goodell has when it comes to ownership optics, and whether the league actually has the will to act when no crime is alleged but the association itself is troubling. They also examine how this impacts the Giants brand, the Mara family, and why protecting the shield has mattered in past ownership cases. Ultimately, it becomes a larger conversation about power, accountability, and whether the NFL will confront uncomfortable realities or quietly move on once the headlines fade.
We open with the shocking revelation that Steve Tisch, co-owner of the New York Giants, shows up in emails to and from Jeffrey Epstein. What does it mean and what is the NFL going to do.

Since the time of it's opening over 100 years ago, Old Yankees Stadium housed the most prolific team in all of American team sport, and some of the games brightest stars. The Yankees did not have an auspicious beginning to their franchise. They were originally nicknamed the Highlanders, and from 1903-1915, they never won a World Series and they had losing seasons in 8 of 13 years. All that changes when the rebranded Yankees buy Babe Ruth from the Boston Red Sox in 1919. At this time they are sharing the Polo Grounds with their landlord, the New York Giants, and with the star-power of Ruth, they routinely outdraw their inter-city rivals in their own crib. Yankees owner Jacob Rupert realizes that his superstar slugger needs a stadium of his own. After scouting areas throughout New York City, Rupert decides to build his cathedral in the Bronx, just a long fly ball over the Harlem River from the Polo Grounds. After Babe hits the first home-run in Yankees Stadium History in a 4-1 win over the Red Sox, sports writer Fred Lieb dubbed the new structure, The House That Ruth Built; a moniker that would last throughout it's 85 year history. This week we chronicle the construction, history, moments and all the legendary players who called the stadium home, and the indelible mark they left behind in baseball history. #YankeesStadium #TheHouseThatRuthBuilt #JacobRuppert #BabeRuth #JohnMcGraw #DeathValley #FredLieb #GeorgeSteinbrenner #MonumentPark #OldTimersGame #BronxNewYork

Rich weighs in on the ripple effect of Pro Football Hall of Fame voters denying 8-time Super Bowl champion coach Bill Belichick's first-ballot enshrinement. 49ers All-Pro FB Kyle Juszczyk and Rich discuss the Niners' reaching the Divisional Round of the NFL playoffs despite a rash of injuries to key players this season, his reaction to Belichick's HOF snub, the Seattle Seahawks' chances to beat the New England Patriots in Super Bowl LX, why the New York Giants are poised for success under new head coach John Harbaugh, and more. Rich reacts to an unexpected highlight of his day: being the answer to a question (question to an answer??) on ‘Jeopardy!' Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
The guys are sick of “leak season.” Instead of letting the Hall of Fame results trickle out through reports and whispers, they argue the NFL should make it a real moment again, like a true NFL Honors reveal, not the schedule-release-style slow drip that ruins the drama. From there, it turns into the two biggest lightning rods: Bill Belichick and Eli Manning. Why is the Belichick conversation always louder than it needs to be, and is the simplest explanation the real one, that the Hall doesn't want an active coach getting in? And for Giants fans losing their minds over Eli not being first ballot, the crew tries to cut through the outrage and talk reality: he's getting in, but the “slam dunk” resume argument is not as clean as people want it to be. It's a debate about the process, the presentation, and why the NFL keeps stepping on its own big moment.
A listener drops an all time Minnesota classic: Vikings fans swear the Giants “cheated” in the 2000 NFC Championship by tapping into on field communications and knowing every play. The guys react in real time, pull up the old accusation, and then immediately do the obvious thing that ruins the conspiracy. They replay how that 41-0 game actually unfolded, how fast it became a bloodbath, and why “they stole our signals” sounds a lot like what people say when they cannot accept a historic beatdown. Tiki, who was on the team, shuts it down flat and explains why something like that would not stay secret in an NFL locker room. From there, the show pivots right back into New York pain with Jets calls. A fan admits it is getting harder and harder to defend the current direction, but also makes the point that firing coaches nonstop does not magically make the job more appealing. The guys break down the ugly truth: for the Jets, trust is only earned one way, winning, and everything else is just noise.
There's one name that Boomer does not want to see - Charlie Weis, Jr. We also talk Jets QB choices as well.

Send us a textTodd Monken was widely expected to become the New York Giants offensive coordinator, but instead Cleveland moved fast and hired him as their head coach, forcing the Giants to pivot their entire offensive plan. We break down how this happened, what it says about timing and leverage in the coaching market, and why losing Monken changes the urgency around this hire.From there, we walk through every realistic offensive coordinator option now in play for the Giants. We discuss internal continuity candidates versus outside hires, how John Harbaugh's philosophy could shape the final decision, and which offensive schemes best fit the Giants roster moving forward. This episode focuses on structure, identity, and the long-term consequences of getting this hire right or wrong.Thank you for watching & for your support.

With Todd Monken officially off the board, Tiki drops a fresh “Top 5” list of preferred Giants offensive coordinator candidates, ranging from familiar names like Matt Nagy and Kliff Kingsbury to intriguing newer options tied to successful coaching trees. The conversation hits what the Giants job actually offers, why play-calling matters, and why the safest endorsement might simply be “whoever John Harbaugh picks.” Then the show gets sideswiped by breaking Jets news that somehow feels even more Jets than usual: New York hires Brian Duker as defensive coordinator after a virtual interview just 21 hours earlier, with the clear implication that Aaron Glenn is essentially taking over the defense himself. The reaction is immediate, equal parts disbelief and dread, as callers torch Woody Johnson, question how any of this qualifies as a plan, and argue the only person who could survive this level of dysfunction is a full power “CEO coach” like Jon Gruden. The segment closes with the larger fear hovering over everything: the Jets' reputation is so bad that even elite quarterback prospects may steer clear, which turns “hope” into something darker, rooting for the No. 1 pick and praying the next coaching hire finally resets the franchise.
A new Giants OC curveball hits when Art Stapleton floats Tanner Engstrom as a legitimate candidate after his Jets exit, citing his coaching ties and the idea that he may have been doomed by the Jets' quarterback situation. Evan and Tiki debate whether a fresh start with Jaxson Dart could unlock something different, even if Engstrom's first run as a coordinator didn't exactly inspire confidence. It quickly turns into a bigger point about trusting John Harbaugh, and the hilarious reality that Engstrom becoming competent in New York would only add another chapter to the “Jets ruin everyone” narrative. Then the show takes a sharp left into the station's internal soap opera as Tommy's group chat presence, late-night takes, and “who stole whose idea” drama becomes its own mini-segment, complete with receipts and a little friendly sabotage speculation. After that, the Mets portion arrives: Freddy Peralta meets the media and gets asked about an extension, and the crew reads between the lines. The instant “I just got here” framing tells the story, he's not eager to talk long-term yet, and it doesn't sound like something that's happening soon from either side. The segment closes with WFAN audio gold, including the rediscovery of the John Heyman blow-up clip and a new Clyde Frazier drop that instantly earns a spot in the rotation.
Evan & Tiki react to Art Stapleton linking former Jets OC Tanner Engstrand to the New York Giants, debate whether the Jets are officially the NFL's most dysfunctional franchise, and dive into coaching chaos, quarterback uncertainty, and front office leadership issues. Plus, fiery caller reactions, media feuds involving Joel Sherman, Jets despair at an all-time high, Yankees trade chatter, Mets contract talk, and classic WFAN banter you won't get anywhere else.
The show turns into a full sports smorgasbord, starting with the latest Giannis “ready for a new home” reporting and why the timing matters. The conversation breaks down how Giannis' leverage changes depending on whether a deal happens now or in the offseason, why a team like Detroit could make a move before he can fully steer the destination, and why Knicks fans might actually want this to wait so Giannis can pull the ultimate power move: the “no extension” threat that funnels him toward New York. From there, the discussion pivots to the Bill Belichick Hall of Fame weirdness, the Spygate bitterness lingering behind the scenes, and the most outrageous part of all: a voter claiming he can't even remember who he voted for. That leads to a classic WFAN flashback on the eternal question of public shaming voters, highlighted by the legendary Steve Summers moment that still makes everyone laugh. The segment wraps with calls on the Giants OC search, why Matt Nagy feels like a clean fit, and an unhinged but hilarious sidebar on Charlie Weis Jr, Jaxson Dart, and the conspiracy theory nobody asked for but everyone will remember.
How long before Jets & Giants fans are complaining how we let them go? Also, Joe Brady elevated to head coach of the Bills.

Donno & Leroy react to the news that former NFL head Coach Bill Belichick winner of 8 Super Bowls (6 as head coach of the New England Patriots, 2 as defensive coordinator for the New York Giants). It is rumored that former GM of the Indianapolis Colts Bill Polian was a strong voice against Belichick from first ballot entry. Was this the right decision?
The phones take over with everything from Super Bowl skepticism to full-blown life advice. A caller argues the Patriots had one of the easiest paths ever to the Super Bowl, but Evan and Tiki make the point that banners do not come with footnotes. Win the game and history does not care how you got there. Then the conversation takes a hard left into one of the most relatable debates of all. Should you ever meet your heroes? From a heartfelt Sam Darnold encounter story to Evan's painfully awkward run-ins with Carrie Underwood and Kurt Angle, the segment spirals into a hilarious breakdown of why admiration is safer from a distance. The takeaway is simple. Players and celebrities are human, fans are weird, and sometimes the best move is saying nothing at all.

Tom Coughlin's first Super Bowl was one of the most famous games in NFL history. It pitted the New York Giants, considered massive underdogs at the time, against the New England Patriots, who hadn't lost a game all season. To many people, the Giants seemed doomed from the start.But Coughlin and his team showed that with discipline and determination, anything was possible. Tom Coughlin is a three-time Super Bowl Champion, NFL Coach of the Year, and, more recently, a 2026 Pro Football Hall of Fame semifinalist. But perhaps the most important title he's had is that of caregiver to his wife Judy, who passed away in November 2022 after a long battle with a rare brain disorder.In this episode, Coach Coughlin talks us through that first Super Bowl with the Giants. We learn about his meticulous old-school style of coaching and how staying by his wife's side in her final days changed his perspective on success.Show Notes Super Bowl XLII Helmet Catch | NFL (Patriots vs. Giants 2007, Week 17) | NFL Throwback Nothing Could Prepare Me for Watching My Wife Slip Away | Tom Coughlin for NYT Tom Coughlin, You Had Me At Hello… | Bleacher Report Tom Coughlin Jay Fund Show CreditsHost: David GreeneExecutive Producers: Joan Isabella, Tom GrahslerSenior Producer: Michael OlcottProducer: Michaela WinbergAssociate Producer: Bibiana CorreaTalent Booker: Britt KahnEngineer: Mike VillersTile Art: Bea WallingSports in America is a production of WHYY, distributed by PRX, and part of the NPR podcast network.

Quick baseball free agency follows with Harrison Bader landing a two-year deal with the Giants. Then the phones light up with Giants roster-building talk, including a fan playing GM and pushing for a big move on the offensive line. A wild wrinkle comes from a caller with a meteorologist connection who says Belichick used to seek ultra-specific forecasts, which sparks more debate about how much coaches should know about incoming weather. The hour swings back to Jets pain as callers re-litigate the Sam Darnold alternate history, and it ends with a full tilt spiral: why the Jets chose Adam Gase over Mike McCarthy, why it still makes fans sick, and the only logical explanation for the Patriots always getting the breaks. Plus, a quick cameo from Jet to sign off and get a verdict on the new background.
