Hour 1 We started the show with the NBA draft which was last night and how the Knicks still don’t have a head coach. They better have one soon as we head into free agency. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and starts with the sounds of the NBA draft. ESPN announced that Portland drafted ‘Colin Cowherd’ and also misidentified Cooper Flagg twice. Boomer asked if there was Buzz, or No Buzz, with the Nets. The Mets finally beat the Braves as Juan Soto hit 2 HRs. Jerry just called Jazz Chisholm ‘Jizzm’. In the final segment of the hour, Sydney Esiason says farewell to ‘WAG Life’ now that Matt Martin has retired. Hour 2 Reports indicate NFL owners colluded in 2022 to limit player guarantees, using emails about Kyler Murray and Justin Herbert, a fact the NFLPA allegedly withheld from players. In sports, the Yankees beat the Reds (Dominguez 4-for-5), and the Mets topped the Braves with Jeff McNeil's great catch and Juan Soto's two homers. Cooper Flagg was the NBA's top draft pick. Other topics included an impaled lifeguard, George Kittle on the Vasper bike, and a humorous anecdote about former colleague Mark Chernoff. Hour 3 The hour began with baseball, noting the Yankees' series against the A's and the Mets' games against the Braves and Pirates. They discussed "triple digit sizzlers" (100+ mph pitches) and the existence of Sizzler restaurants. A caller raised concerns about the Knicks' lack of a head coach. Jerry's update highlighted Mets and Yankees wins, with Juan Soto hitting two homers. Two Rutgers players were drafted in the NBA, and Morehead State will honor Phil Simms. The hour concluded with a discussion about Counting Crows' tour and pre-show setlist viewing. Hour 4 The NBA draft saw the Nets not use their five picks to move up, while the Knicks continued their head coach search. Nick Van Exel blamed injuries on low-top sneakers. The Yankees avoided a sweep, the Mets beat the Braves (Soto 2 HRs), and a hurdler had an unfortunate wardrobe malfunction. ESPN mistakenly said the Trailblazers drafted "Colin Cowherd." The "Moment of the Day" was an NBA trade involving Jeanie Buss's panties. The show ended discussing the Knicks' coaching search and their urgent championship window.

In the final segment of the show, we talked about the Knicks coaching search and what kind of experience they’re looking for. If the Knicks are going to win a championship, it has to be now.

The NBA draft was last night and we were surprised the Nets didn’t package any of their 5 picks to move up. The Knicks are still looking for a head coach. Gio said there’s not as much off season NBA juice because Woj is gone. Former player Nick Van Exel thinks all the NBA injuries are due to players no longer wearing high top sneakers.

Boomer used the phrase, ‘triple digit sizzlers’ for pitches over 100 mph. We talked about Sizzler and how they still exist, mostly on the west coast. We went though some other places like Long John Silver and Arthur Treacher’s.

The Yankees beat the Reds as Dominguez went 4-for-5. The Mets beat the Braves and Jeff McNeil made a great play in center, stealing a HR. Juan Soto hit 2 homers. Cooper Flagg was drafted number one last night in the NBA draft. George Kittle was on ‘Bussin with the Boys’ and talked about the benefits of the Vasper bike.
