Sal Licata joins Locked Up Sports for a must-watch conversation covering his departure from WFAN, the future of the Mets under Carlos Mendoza, and whether the Knicks' championship window is closing.
Sal opens up about the WFAN decision, saying he doesn't agree with it but respects it — and confirms he will not be returning.
We dive deep into the Mets, where Sal makes it clear: if the team misses the playoffs, Carlos Mendoza will be fired. He also tells fans to move on from Pete Alonso and Brandon Nimmo, praises David Stearns for breaking up a losing core, and predicts a bounce-back season from Francisco Alvarez. Sal also believes the addition of Marcus Semien was a strong move to improve the lineup.
On the Knicks side, Sal says if they don't win a championship this year, it may be time to break up the core.
This is a bold, honest, unfiltered NY sports conversation.

The Super Bowl is over, and Locked Up Sports is breaking it all down.
This wasn't the worst Super Bowl ever — but it was boring. Both quarterbacks struggled, offense never found its footing, and defense controlled the game from start to finish. The Seahawks are world champions, and their defense earned it.
We react to the game, the QB play, the halftime show, and then zoom out to the bigger picture: the start of the worst stretch on the sports calendar. From now until Selection Sunday, things get thin — and we talk about how fans survive it.
Honest reactions. No sugarcoating. Just sports talk the way it should be.
The NFL is more popular than ever — and that's exactly the problem.
In this episode of Locked Up Sports, I'm airing my full list of grievances with the NFL. From the league's nonstop push toward an 18th regular-season game, to a Pro Bowl flag football product that's completely unwatchable, to a league that keeps telling us it “cares about player safety” while chasing billions of dollars from networks and streaming companies.
The NFL dominates television ratings, but at what cost?
Oversaturation. Player burnout. A watered-down product. And a league that seems more focused on the next TV deal than the long-term health of the game.
This isn't anti-football — it's pro-football.
And if the NFL isn't careful, they're going to love this thing to death.
Tune in, agree or disagree, and let me know if I'm wrong.

The emails include Tisch ordering girls from Epstein to be sent to him. Epstein inviting Tisch to his private island, and in turn Tisch hosting Epstein in his suite for a 2013 Giants home game. What does this mean for Steve Tisch? What does this mean for the Giants? We tackle all the questions as this story continues to Develop
