Boomer & Carton: A Goat Named 'Murphy' And Jerry's Update

Subscribe to the Boomer & Carton Podcast »

The movie "Back to the Future Part II" predicted that the Cubs would win the 2015 World Series, but they might not even get to the show thanks to the Mets. What's more, Boomer can't get over the fact that the goat associated with the Cubs' 107-year-old curse was actually named "Murphy."

Well, curse or no curse, the Mets' Daniel Murphy continued to play like his hair was on fire Tuesday night in Chicago, homering for the fifth straight game and for the sixth time during what has been a magical postseason as the Amazins moved within one win of their first World Series appearance since 2000.

Jerry Recco's update also included ex-Met and current Blue Jay R.A. Dickey taking one on the chin in Game 4 of the ALCS, Dez Bryant possibly suiting up on Sunday when the Cowboys travel to MetLife to face the Giants, and good news surrounding Big Blue tight end Daniel Fells, who will reportedly not need to have his foot amputated as he battles MRSA.
