During this action-packed segment, we got spoiled with a whole mess of good stuff, beginning with the first installment of 'Boomer's Fantasy,' which is when Uncle Booms offers up a couple of fantasy football 'sleepers' for the upcoming week of action:
Before Boomer left for Denver to call last night's Ravens-Broncos game, Craig requested that while in the Mile-High city, Booms should play a round or two of the wildly popular 'Heads Up' game with Kevin Harlan.
Bernard King is already up in Massachusetts preparing for Sunday, when he will be inducted into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. So he called in from his hotel room this morning to talk with Boomer and Craig about the momentous occasion...
Boomer was on the radio for Broncos-Ravens, and Jerry did his best to kiss up to the Blonde Bomber for his work in the booth, only to have his efforts thwarted by Craig, who wasn't in much of a complimentary mood.
Despite Manning's heroics, and the first football Sunday so close you can taste it, Craig's mood was a bit foul based on the 'devastatingly brutal' loss by his beloved Yankees,
The earliest real signs of trouble for Andy Murray came in the 10th game of his U.S. Open quarterfinal. For 22 points stretched over 15 excruciating minutes Thursday, Murray's body language was as poor as his play.

Bob and Mike Bryan lost 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 to Leander Paes and Radek Stepanek in the US Open semifinals Thursday, ending a 28-match winning streak in the Grand Slams and stopping their run two wins short of the Slam.

"I still don't know," Holmes said Wednesday. "Still haven't gotten any word from the doctors yet on whether I should be playing or not, so I'm just going to keep playing it by ear."
The NFL's marketing machine put up gigantic banners of Flacco alongside Peyton Manning on the Broncos' stadium to promote the league's first game of the 2013 season. Fans are furious, Manning is miffed and Flacco is flummoxed.
Tampa Bay Buccaneers cornerback Darrelle Revis thinks it's pretty darn funny that Jets rookie quarterback Geno Smith hasn't studied him on tape.
