Craig was embarrassed as a Jets fan when he learned that Rex Ryan reached out to Adam Sandler to help him convince Nnamdi Asomugha to sign with the Jets.
Jerry 'Rello' Recco's first update of the day was packed with information about everything you may have missed over the weekend, beginning with the highs and lows the Jets and their fans experienced.
When Friday's edition of the 'Morning Extravaganza' concluded all indications were that the Jets were going to lure cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha to New York, team him up with Darrell Revis and go and win a Super Bowl. It didn't happen.
So let's get this straight… Your Jets, who made it to the AFC title game the last two years – and were leading one at halftime – are now washed-up because you didn't sign a cornerback who played in neither game?
A year ago, Matt Dodge and Steve Weatherford were the regular punters for New York's two football teams — Dodge with the Giants and Weatherford with the Jets. Now they're in training camp with the Giants, vying for the same job.
In an 11th hour push to get Nassau County residents to vote yes on a new coliseum, Brian Rosenberg of the Long Island Restaurant Association staged a pep rally for the cause at Lido Beach.
Mark Brunell will be back as Mark Sanchez's backup and mentor after the Jets re-signed the 40-year-old veteran to a one-year deal. The Jets cut Brunell, due $1.25 million in base salary this year, on Friday but brought him back at a lesser salary.
The Yankees general manager decided he liked the hand he held and passed on the chance to add to New York's roster Sunday at the July 31 deadline for trades without waivers.
Rick Ankiel scored on Ian Desmond's chopper up the middle in the bottom of the ninth inning Sunday, giving the Washington Nationals a 3-2 win over the New York Mets on a scorcher of a summer afternoon.
Freddy Garcia (10-7) struck out six in six innings and allowed two runs on five hits to send the Yankees 22 games over .500, their highest point of the season.
From Big Blue to Gang Green. According to various reports, the Jets and Plaxico Burress have agreed to a one-year deal deal that will pay the wide receiver just over $3 million.
So two big-name players have come and gone from Giants camp since Friday night. Who returns and remains for the season or does neither one? It's anybody's guess but either player could have a dramatic impact on the team's record.
Robinson Cano, Nick Swisher and the New York Yankees broke loose for 12 runs in the first inning Saturday night, setting a franchise record en route to a 17-3 rout of the Baltimore Orioles that completed a painfully embarrassing sweep of their split doubleheader.
Jayson Werth hit a three-run home run, and Yunesky Maya, filling in for traded starter Jason Marquis, earned his first career win for the Washington Nationals in a 3-0 victory over the New York Mets on Saturday night.
Manufactured or real sizzle? You decide. General Managers have caught on to this and now make moves well before the deadline (see Beltran to Giants). Drama may happen and a nation may be inspired by the underdog once more. David clubbed Goliath, nice stone toss dude, and can you pitch too?
