Brandon Tierney & Sal Licata ·

2025/10/29

BT and Sal go scorched-earth on the Knicks' rough start, debating whether the biggest problem is new head coach "Mike Clown" or perceived soft superstar Karl-Anthony Towns. Sal blasts coach Mike Brown for being a "clown" who's too focused on being loved and not a true taskmaster, leading to a disorganized offense. BT argues the real issue is Towns, calling him a "little puppy" lacking the competitive fire of a true superstar, incapable of leading the team to a championship with his sloppy, soft, and

Ginn McLain dilemma: is he an untouchable asset, or should they trade him for an immediate ace like Skubal? Plus, NFL insider Jordan Schultz's report on the Giants potentially

BT & Sal bring in NFL Insider Brian Baldinger to deliver a fiery breakdown of Dexter Lawrence's shocking struggles. Baldy agrees with the harsh criticism from Giants legend Carl Banks, stating that the All-Pro defensive tackle has lost his "enormous strength" and isn't showing the dominance expected, especially after a backup center handled him with ease.

2025/10/28

BT & Sal lock horns over the news that Antoan Richardson, the Mets' first base coach, may leave after contract talks stalled due to his desire for an expanded role. Sal passionately defends Richardson, calling him the "best first base coach in baseball" and highlighting his historic 89% stolen base success rate with the Mets, a stat Juan Soto directly credited him for. BT, however, dismisses the hysteria, arguing that a first base coach is irrelevant to a team's success and calling the reaction
