Welcome to "This is our Year Podcast", The New York sports podcast hosted by Michael Kurland and Doug O'Keefe.
Doug begins the show by discussing Giants current standing in the league. He shares his ideas as well as his frustrations. Mike also discussed the Jets, focusing on the team's offensive line. He acknowledged that the O-line is still not in ideal shape and that numerous scoring opportunities have been lost in recent games, but he praised the team's defensive line. Mets are next, who are still performing poorly with no management intervention. Players aren't playing at their best, and some are still healing from injuries. A side discussion involved Seinfeld blaming Timmy Trumpet for Mets' poor play. Finally, they discuss the state of the New York Islanders.
