Chapter 1: What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
It's the Boomer and Geo podcast from WFAN. All right, Boomer and Geo coming to you live from the Bill Ford Tough Studio on the Fan and CBS Sports Network. Yankees opening day at Yankee Stadium. Dan and Carter Rett's already there. Probably other Yankee fans already there. Drinking responsibly at 6, 7 o'clock in the morning. Red Pocket Mobile fan line is how you join the show.
And that number is 888-808-1019. And it's your new ultimate cell carrier, Red Pocket Mobile. And, of course, we have the Mets out on the West Coast losing to the San Francisco Giants. All the losses, the four losses that they've had this year, this was the worst of the losses.
Chapter 2: What are the highlights of the Yankees' opening day performance?
And by the way, that second game against the Pirates very easily could have been a loss as well. But we are more in a celebratory mood today with the Yankees in opening day than we are, just like Paul and Yonker said.
It's a Yankees day.
It is. It is.
I'm going to call upon a Yankees day.
The nice thing about Paul is that he was very calm this morning. He was, yeah. And I think that he wanted to give the Yankee fan their opportunity to call in and talk about Yankee opening day and the way that they've started. And they've started this way, even with a kind of struggling judge at the plate. He also struggled in the World Baseball Classic, too. Yeah.
This has been kind of like an extended struggle for him over the last, would you say, five weeks?
Yeah.
Yeah, I mean, we've seen it before. I'm getting off to slow starts. He's been in slumps for a period of time. The only thing you need to worry about with him is health because there are issues that he's had and been out for a significant time and how that affects the season. But, I mean, the guy's going to hit. He's going to be fine. Really, it's about how great can this staff be.
There's enough offense there. Hitting in the postseason is always going to be the question from top to bottom in the lineup and just not have Giancarlo Stanton as the only guy hitting in the postseason. Whether or not this team can get to the World Series or not and take on the Dodgers or not, I think mainly is going to be the ceiling of the rotation, which right now looks very, very high.

Chapter 3: Will Derek Jeter attend the 30th anniversary celebration for the '96 Yankees?
Henrik can be right there, too. He's suave and he's international. Gretzky. And he's still damn handsome. There's actually more Rangers than anybody. Yeah, because the whole thing is elitist. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Right. Islanders. Pac-Man. Nice. Billy Smith. No. I would say it'd be Mike Bossy. Okay. Yeah. Again, if you're talking in my ear, I can't hear you guys. They're not talking in your ear.
Are they talking to you? No. They're just talking near the microphone when it goes through. Let's go to George in Stanford. What's going on, George? Hello! What's happening, Georgie? Yo, I want to do a single-day brunch. Okay. Okay. the top five New York athletes with the most pelts. You know what that means? Oh, yeah, the women that they've banged. Yes. Yep. Jeter. Nameth.
I'll put Longquist up there.
No, no, no.
I don't think so. No? No. He's not married? You could make a case that he's married. Paul Mary? What? No, he said, is he married? Is he married? Paul Mary? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Hold on. Let's see. How long has Henrik been married for? We all see how great looking he is, and we all know the potential.
You could make a case that Henrik Lundqvist, because he's from Sweden and then spent his career in New York, has seen more beautiful naked women than anybody on the planet. You could make that case. I love the felon Sanchez. Uh, yeah, but his reign wasn't long enough. He wasn't good long enough. How about A-Rod? Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Thanks, George.
I mean, I could give you a whole slew of Knicks. Yeah. But definitely Namath. Definitely Jeter. Gagarinari. Danilo Gallinari. Oh, yeah. 100%. But he wasn't here for that long. Yeah, but he... He got it done, you're saying? Oh, he was getting it done, yeah. He was racking them up? I don't know. You just threw that out there like you knew. Yeah. How about the Nets? Who could be elitist?

Chapter 4: Which New York athletes are considered elitist and why?
Yes. Jason Kidd. Yes. Definitely Jason Kidd. I would also say Sean Marks. Come on. He can't. He's not allowed to be anything but just a terrible GM. That's the only thing he's allowed to be. How about Kyrie Irving? No. No? No, no, no. He's not allowed to be a leader. No, no, no, no. Not as a member of the Nets. Right.
I mean, if he's in Cleveland, maybe, because he hit the game-winning shot to win a championship. But no, not here. Not around here. How about the Devils? Brodeur. Yeah, it's got to be more than Brodeur. Come on. You know, Scott Stevens definitely up there, but it's Brodeur. If you're picking one.
But that's a different... Now we're talking back to elitists as far as the New York athletes that have banged the most.
I got two others that AI came up with.
Yeah.
Sean Avery.
Oh, yeah. Yeah, definitely.
And though a very short run, Matt Harvey.
Matt Harvey.

Chapter 5: What are the implications of athletes being considered elitist?
It even looks and sounds forced, like where he'll finish, he'll be angry, then the face goes just back to normal as he hits the button to stop the recording. But the reason I play those first two is we're leading to maybe this part is real as he goes after one of our current full-time hosts here on The Fan.
You know who symbolizes the futility and just acceptance of losing of the Mets is Tommy f***ing Lugauer. This guy. What are you going to say in June when there are 20 games under .500? What are you going to say? It's okay. It's okay. H-O-T-T-O-T-O. This positivity s***. It doesn't work. It doesn't f***ing work. This team sucks. It sucks. It sucks. It sucks. It's over. This team has no hope.
Never hope. No hope ever.
Season seven games over.
Yeah. What do you think would happen if Frank the Tank and Paul and Yonkers got in the same room? You think an earthquake would occur? Yeah. Just from the negativity. Earth might implode. It'd be a crack. Somewhere in the surface of the earth.
It's just so amazing to sit with Al this morning on the warm-up where these games don't matter. And this guy after seven is basically throwing himself off a bridge.
But Al is right in that case. I know. I know he is. I mean, every game does matter, but the point being is that we're not going to know what this team is going to look like until we get to July, unfortunately.
Who the hell knows?
A lot of moving parts, man. A lot of new moving parts, man. Guys got to get used to playing with each other. I don't know. The thing that's really... I would say concerning is the lack of hitting.
