About this listen

Evan wakes up furious at the two people he works with, and it starts with a simple point: the New York Islanders swept the New York Rangers and Evan wants full credit, no asterisks. Shaun tries to wave it off with “the Rangers quit,” which turns into an all-out fight about what “counts,” rivalry pride, and whether Ranger fans are ducking the embarrassment after the Garden got loud for Islanders fans at Madison Square Garden and UBS Arena. Then Tiki Barber lights the fuse on a totally different argument: could Kirk Cousins actually make sense for the New York Jets, not just as a stopgap starter but as a future “player-coach” type who helps shape the offense? The crew debates the age factor, the directionless feel of the Jets, and whether this is a “bottom out” year or a “build something” year, with names flying everywhere from Atlanta Falcons money mechanics to Frank Reich, Aaron Glenn, Malik Willis, and J. J. McCarthy. Plus, the phones go crazy: Islanders fans demand Shaun “own it,” Rangers fans double down on the apathy defense, and the hour ends with more fuel added to the fire, including Matthew Schaefer “king of New York” talk, Chris Drury trust issues, and a surprise moment where James Dolan somehow enters the chat.
