B&C Show Blog & Audio: Giant Debacle
Bobby Dwyer
Craig was on his own today as Boomer was still enjoying some time off as Steve Phillips needed a day to regroup after filling in for Boomer yesterday, which is certainly understandable. With that said, Craig had the stage to himself and he chose to use that stage to call out the New York Football Giants organization for their decision to make the remaining regular season tickets available on Ticketmaster. This is quite a reversal considering the Giants have been steadfast from day one, saying that all seats would be accompanied by a Personal Seat License (PSL), therefore would not be available for purchase on a single game basis.

With Boomer out for the week, Al decided to book a football guest to chat with Craig and the name he came up with was Jimmy Johnson. Johnson is one of only two coaches (Barry Switzer being the other) to win a National Championship (1987 – Miami U) and a Super Bowl (he won two with the Cowboys – 1992-93). These days Johnson is a studio analyst for Fox NFL Sunday and he will also appear on the hit reality series Survivor: Nicaragua, which will premiere on CBS, September 15th @ 8pm.
