When talking about the countless acts of charity which have emerged in the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy, Craig recalled a classic line from late Yankees owner George Steinbrenner.
First we heard Boomer gettin' all hip when calling the Knicks' new look uniforms 'fresh,' then he shared a story about his daughter's first date (which involved a stern warning and a shotgun).
Craigie called on his radio partner to flex his muscle, if you will, in the video game world.
It was all laughs following the game in the Knicks' locker room -- and why wouldn't it be?
As we collectively continue to strive for some sense of normalcy following Superstorm Sandy, Boomer and Craig opened today's edition of the Morning Extravaganza talking some sports, specifically the New York Knickerbockers.
For all the cracks made about New York's aging roster, those old-timers sure know how to win. Carmelo Anthony scored 21 points and JR Smith had 17 to help keep the Knicks perfect in a 110-88 win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday night.
Rookie guard Alexey Shved and Chase Budinger led a furious rally from 22 points down, and the Minnesota Timberwolves came back to stun the Brooklyn Nets 107-96 on Monday night.
Who has had a more successful career thus far -- Eli Manning or Ben Roethlisberger?
"We wanted to go out there and give the Giants fans and the people around New York something to cheer about," Manning said. "We weren't able to do that. It's disappointing, just the way we played."
If Anthony continues to play with this sort of ferocity and focus on both ends of the floor, the sky is the limit for him and the Knicks. It won't matter that Amar'e Stoudemire comes back.
You can parse the particulars, from the Giants' 182 total yards to their wretched special teams. But strip the stats and you'll see that the Steelers just wanted to win more.
The NFL presents the Giants with a chance to play 16 games. Losing a tough game at home in the first week of November is just one loss, and there is time to get better.
"I know we're not where we want to be," said Ryan. "We're not sniffing the playoffs, we're not sniffing anything right now. But I want to get there. I'm excited about the prospects in front of us."
"I can only say the Yankees told us they were interested in signing Soriano while expecting Rivera to come back," agent Scott Boras said.
Some Knicks fans might be wondering: Who the heck is this guy?
