NY Jets Red Alert ! One of my favorite radio segments on the Shemon and Sheppard Show on ESPN Southwest Florida is RED ALERT every Tuesday at 3:30ish! That's where we put people, teams or situations on BLAST because they deserve to be ripped. (I also like the missile launch sound effects that Chris plays from the other side of the glass!)
Common targets are prima danna athletes who are unaware of their social surroundings. It is our duty to point out their public deficiencies.
Other targets can be coaches who make bonehead decisions or team owners and general managers who drive their fans nuts. It is our job to set the world straight, at least during our ten minute segment.
Since we've been doing this segment for a while, I also enjoy how the texters like to add their nominations to the list. Add your Red Alert via text at 239-337-ESPN.
Also, in case you are new to the show, RED ALERT blasts do NOT have to come from the world of sports. In fact, as of late, we like to close the segment by ALWAYS blasting Russian President Vladimir Putin just because. However, I should note that our show goes to painstaking lengths to avoid divisive politics at all costs.
So, NY Jets RED ALERT ! You made the list! Let's see who else did!
So let's dial it up! Enjoy this week's RED ALERT!
1. BRYCE YOUNG
Since your time at Alabama it looks like you shrank 1 7/8 inches.
2. MIKE GARAFOLO
This week you Tweeted breaking news: David Carr signs with the Saints. ...uh Derek Carr?
3. NY JETS
Derek Carr turned you down. What makes you think Aaron Rodgers will pick you? Geno Smith is now off the table. It's Jimmy G or bust... or back to Zach Wilson. You are still a QB "away."
4. VIKINGS
Your defense was bad. So you cut LB Eric Kendricks who made 137 tackles last season. SMH
5. JA MORANT
Incredible talent. Needs to grow up.
6. JOE MIXON
1. Punched a girl at Oklahoma
2. Brandished a gun downtown the week of a post season game.
3. A shooting took place in his home where a juvenile was hurt. Lot's of police activity. Not sure if Mixon was there.
7. VLAD PUTIN
Stop the war ass-clown.
