Here's the audio of the Jets Midseason Report that we did with Newsday's Jets Beat Reporter Rod Boone on my Long Island Sports Talk radio show last night. It's 32+ commercial-free minutes of nothing but Jets talk in MP3 format and can be found at http://sportstalk903.libsyn.com Thanks to everyone who submitted questions. Here's a breakdown of the topics discussed: --What does the 4-4 record tell us? --Braylon Edwards --Cotchery's Hamstring --Lack of conditioning because of certain common injuries? --Thomas Jones/Leon Washington/Shonn Greene in 2010 --Any chance the Jets look past the Jags this week? --Should the Jets have gone with a more experienced backup QB? --The Offensive Line --Alan Faneca --Replacing Kris Jenkins --Vernon Gholston --Lito Sheppard --Rex Ryan's confidence --Steve Weatherford --Kicking to Ted Ginn Jr./Special Teams changes --Tony Richardson --Danny Woodhead's WR Training --Remaining Schedule (/small margin for error/what record makes the playoffs?) --Is the Jags game a "Must Win?" --The Days off during the Bye Week --The relationship between Ryan and Tannenbaum --Ticket sales for the new stadium --Stopping Maurice Jones-Drew Hope you enjoy!
In the interview, you'll hear that the 2 of them are very good friends. And, in our Boland Yankees interview from a few weeks ago on the site, Erik said that the Yankees beat is the #1 beat to get at the paper.
Oh come on, you mean to tell me that he'd rather follow a championship baseball team around and forego the "perks" associated with being the NY Jets beat reporter? A wise man he is not...
