Podcast: JJ Barstool Sports New York

Pitchers and catchers report for the Yankees and the entire 2015 season hinges mainly on the health and right elbow of Masahiro Tanaka.

Baseball is finally here! Well, sort of. Pitchers and catchers reported today in Tampa for the Yankees with the first workout scheduled for Saturday with the rest of the team reporting on Wednesday. While we hopefully wait for A-Rod’s apology letter to leave the headlines for news of Yoan Moncada signing with the Yankees, it made sense to do a two-part spring training podcast to talk about the state of the Yankees with the start of the 2015 season.

JJ of Barstool Sports New York joined me for Part I to talk about the Yankees’ latest retired numbers, A-Rod’s apology letter, how worried Yankees fans should be about the rotation and who should be the closer.

The Rangers finally beat the Islanders in a regular-season classic and it’s time to start wishing the rivals meet in the postseason this year.

It took four games and for most of Monday night it looked like it might not happen, but the Rangers finally beat the rival Islanders this season. After trailing by two goals three different times, the Rangers’ third-period comeback at Nassau Coliseum got them a much-needed win against the Islanders and hopefully for at least a little while it will silence Islanders fans.

Mike Carver of The Butch Goring Show on Hockey This Week Radio Network and WFAN joined me to talk about the Rangers finally being able to beat the Islanders this season, desperately wanting a Rangers-Islanders playoff series and what would be considered a successful season for the two teams.

The Rangers beat the Bruins. It doesn’t happen often and hasn’t happened in almost two years, so when it does it’s important to talk about it.

The Rangers beat the Bruins. Writing that sentence doesn’t happen often, so let me write it again: The Rangers beat the Bruins. The Rangers blew a 1-0 lead, but overcame a 2-1 deficit to beat the Bruins 3-2 on Wednesday night at MSG for their first win over the Bruins since Game 4 of the 2012-13 Eastern Conference semifinals on May 23, 2013 and their first regular-season win over them since Feb. 12, 2013. It was their first regulation win over the Bruins since March 4, 2012.

Brian McGonagle, who is also known as Rear Admiral, of Barstool Sports Boston joined me to talk about the Rangers and Bruins, the worst matchups for the Eastern Conference playoffs, what Boston used to be like and the emotions of the final minute of Super Bowl XLIX.

Super Bowl XLIX is finally here and that means everyone can now focus on real football and an actual game rather than inflation regulations.

Super Bowl XLIX is finally here. Well, the weekend is finally here and the this weekend is centered around the game in Arizona. After two weeks of hearing about the football inflation regulations, there will actually be real football and an actual game to talk about.

Danny Picard, of DannyPicard.com and The Danny Picard Show on WEEI and Comcast SportsNet New England, joined me to talk about how Super Bowl XLIX will impact the legacy of Tom Brady and Bill Belichick, why people hate the Patriots, how the Seahawks resemble the early-2000s Patriots and who will win in Arizona.

Another Rangers-Islanders game and another loss for the Blueshirts to keep them winless against their rival this season.

Another Rangers-Islanders game and another loss for the Rangers to drop them to 0-3 on the season against their rival. In the three games, the Rangers have been outscored 13-4 with just one goal in the last 122:10 against the Islanders. If the two teams do end up meeting in the playoffs this spring, I hope the Islanders still haven’t lost to the Rangers at that point because that would be the only way I would feel confident about the series.

Mike Carver of The Butch Goring Show on Hockey This Week Radio Network and WFAN joined me to talk about why the Islanders have owned the Rangers so far this season, the changed perception of Jack Capuano for Islanders fans and how the reality of the Nassau Coliseum closing is starting to set in.
