I don't care moon us, I do whatever you want.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Now.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Had a great weekend. I was in Disney and we're
gonna talk about Disney freaks, and I think Disney sort
of ties into this discussion. Yea, Wan solo, they're calling
him Wan Soto has twenty eight home runs. That's great
and grand and all, but twenty two of them are
solo shots. That's a lot. That's too many to be
a coincident dance. Yeah, that's it's it's a bummer because
(02:41):
Wan Soda is a type of guy you're counting on
to come through in those big clutch moments because he
has historically been that guy. This year, with runners in
scoring position, the guy might as well be Bett in
zero point zero. But hey, when no one's up and
the Mets are down five runs, he's good for a
solo shot, right, and then numbers prove it. So based
on that, I was thinking about the best and worst
(03:04):
solo missions, because some things you could pull off solo.
Other things just make you look like a weirdo. Now
I got one to get it going, and we'll take
your phone calls. At eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox,
Covino and Rich in for Dan Patrick. We're here tomorrow,
Wednesday and Friday. Now, you would think you would think
that going clothes shopping with your significant other is a
(03:29):
plus or a positive because you can get a second opinion. Hey,
what do you think of these? Sweet Travis Matthew Jean's Hey,
what do you think of it? A sweet shirt?
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Right?
Speaker 2 (03:39):
I think your girlfriend or wife. He only confuses you
and makes it worse and you end up getting nothing.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Man, I didn't get anything.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
I find that I'm more productive when I'm by myself.
I'm there, I'm on a mission. I like it, I
buy it. I walk away with a whole bunch of stuff.
She may hate it when I get home, But I
was productive and I got all that stuff. I mean,
and I know with someone else I get nothing done.
I mean, I'm thinking bigger scale and small scale, Like
to me get that last sip of coffee?
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
I hate when people shy away. I do effect you
know we're on in the morning. I'm offending when people
shy away from the last sip, like they're offending people.
Like if I have a milkshake or an ice an
ice drink, I will slurp that last sip, So.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Go on, come on, make that coffee to go.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Let's go, Hey, come on. You know one time I
was on a date, Danny J.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Sam.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
I was on a date, and you know when you
have like a little bit of your drink left, but
like significant it's there right there. Waiter came and took
my like last sippy sip of my cocktail, and I said, hey,
I wasn't finished. And you think about it, if you
paid for that, you're going to a nice restaurant and
you get like some if you get like a drink
(04:46):
that's called like the whiskey business or something, or some
eighteen dollars twenty dollars drink, eighteen dollars cocktail at Hobbyer's right,
and he took my drink. I was even finished, so
I said, hey, ninety four dollars. It's a ninety four
dollars drink. As I give that back. The girl I
was with didn't know me that well. She like squeezed
my leg and like bitter lips. This just mean cholack girl.
(05:08):
She's like, you ever do that again.
Speaker 5 (05:10):
She's like I'm gonna sleep your neck or something. She's like,
don't you embarrass me? Like that okay, shit, She's like,
you embarrassed me. I'm like, embarrassing you. The guy took
my drink. She's like, that was embarrassing gave. I was like,
they can pay for your own meal. The day was
pretty much over after that twenty dollars drink.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
You're like, that was a four dollars cent that being said,
let me finish my coffee anyway. So I gave you
a good one, Rach, let me give you a bad one.
I just came back from Disney, and I think if
you're going on rides by yourself, Like, if you're the
lonely guy on the teacups by yourself, you're a loser.
I'm sorry. You might have your reasoning or your excuse
or maybe like there was no room for you in
(05:49):
the other tea cup. But if I see one lonely
dude spinning around by himself, I'm thinking, what sort of
weirdo is that? Single Rider? You know, there's a new
dating app by the way, I'm sorry, I'm to be
all over the place, but there's an actual dating app,
I believe, called single Rider, where you can meet other
singles at a theme park. But I've been going to
(06:09):
a theme park by yourself, a lame solo mission. I'll
give you a good one, though, a simple good one.
I'm not going to the supermarket by myself because I
feel like my wife buys stuff we don't need and
it takes forever and my kids get in the way.
Stereotype and be sexist rich because I'm not that's you.
But women love to go down every aisle. It's like,
(06:30):
that's not how this works. Just get what you need.
I go to Costco. My girlfriend's eat and out like
like we're going in every like a little maze. It's
like we got I think we need a battery generator.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
Of what my girl window shops down each aisle. I'm
with you, you're productive. When we're wealthy, We're going to
get two of those. YEA, no thanks, let's get with you.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
That's a good solo mission.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
I think.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
I think a weird solo mission would be going somewhere
like bowling or mini golf or something like that. I mean,
I the lonely bowler. Watch out for that guy, uh
Dan in Michigan. What's up man? We'll start with you.
Solo missions, which are good ones? Which are bad ones?
Speaker 6 (07:18):
Hey, guys, you tell me if this is weird or not.
Right around this time of year, I absolutely love getting
out on the golf course early in the morning when
I have the course to myself, put my AirPods in
and walk nine to eighteen holes, just kind of do
my thing by myself.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
You know, I don't mind it. I don't.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
I don't mind that at all. You know what I
did once, I feel like it's just you being active
and productive.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Judge me on this one or not. It was around September,
so about them around this time of year. Back in
the day, the Mets were in a Pennant race and
it was one of those final weekends of the year,
and none of my Mets buddies were available. I went
to a ballgame by myself.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
How was it? Weird? Lonely?
Speaker 2 (08:01):
High five inself? That's lost, so it's even worse. But like,
is that a weird one?
Speaker 3 (08:05):
Is that?
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Is that a lonely one?
Speaker 7 (08:06):
Like?
Speaker 2 (08:06):
No, I think those are things you want to share
with buddies. Do What about like a super Bowl where
a super fan's like, I can't afford it, but there's
a solo ticket that's affordable, like because it's one you know,
like you go to a Can you go to a
concert by yourself?
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Or is that weird? You know?
Speaker 2 (08:22):
I feel Here's how I feel about that. I feel like,
if you can't find something to go with, like you
were so determined to go, you're such a fan that
you went regardless, make friends. I almost yeah, and you
can make friends. I actually give you credit for that.
I don't recommend it, but I it's like going to
vacation by yourself. It's like, yeah, you had no one
to go with, but I commend you for still going
(08:42):
and doing something traveling maybe eat if it feels weird,
even if it's okay, because if you're watching something like
a game or a concert or a movie or something.
I was in New York City recently by myself for
like a quick turnover a day. I didn't have time
to call any of my family friends like meet me
in the city, but I did have a chunk of
time to kill. I went to go see Back to
the Future on Broadway by myself, And that is that weird?
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Is that weird?
Speaker 1 (09:08):
I mean?
Speaker 2 (09:08):
But I understand. I mean the New York Jets on
Hard Knocks sold me. It's more understandable than like a
guy at a theme park by himself. I'm like, what's
going on with that guy? I've won this one lame
question because it's it's smut based. I mentioned it before,
kind of question. When you're like a younger man. Let's
(09:28):
say you go to an adult establishment when you were
with your buddies and it's like a bachelor party. You
are like, hey, John's birthday. I feel like it seems
more innocent. If you go to a strip club by yourself,
it seems like it goes from innocent camaraderie to what
a creeper? You know, I think I've done that, And
looking back, I'll say, yeah, what a creep I think
(09:49):
I did because you're horned up, like twenty something year
old guy, just excited.
Speaker 8 (09:54):
Because the guy in the corner with in the shadows
with the male gaze.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Yeah, because it's you. You're like, what, I'm not a
weird guy. You justify it like I'm a good guy.
But it was drooling and staring ahead. But in retrospect,
it is weird. If we were younger men, it was like, Hey,
it's Spot's birthday, or I was Sam's birthday. We're going
out for dinner, We're gonna go to the strip club.
That's like you're quintessential twenty eighth. Okay, some of your
own guy birthday socialist yourself. If you're walking through Chicago
(10:23):
or DC or Miami or New York and you're like,
I'm by myself, you go into the strip club, I
feel like you are. It's like you're, yeah, you're you're
really being controlled in that moment by what's on your
pants in like the most Like my god, I'm not
one of those guys that feels really cool getting a
lap dance or something in front of all my buds
(10:45):
cheering me on. I think that's weird too. I hate that.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Oh, it's like more of a private moment.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Yeah, you don't need Sam looking at me and laughing
while you know the dance is going on. I remember
one time one time, you know, and I were with
some old school buddies. This is back in the day.
We've known each other decades. I remember sometimes you don't
want to see your buddy's freak face. I remember one
time we were at we were at one of these
(11:11):
places and we saw one of our buddies getting an
adult dance so hypnotized, and we both looked at him, like,
look at the look in his eyes. I don't ever
want to see that demon guy. What's going on? I
can only imagine in that moment he probably sounded like
a little mickey.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Let me take it to sports for a second. Yeah,
have you either of you gone to a baseball, football,
or basketball game by yourself?
Speaker 9 (11:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (11:36):
I mentioned before I went to I went to I
went to a Mets game solo. I think here's a
good one. Danny, let's say business. I haven't, but I
could see that Danny, like, you know you're there and
like no one wants to go with your splurge on
a home game.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
Yeah, home game. You feel like forty friends are there
with you.
Speaker 6 (11:55):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
I think when it is that type of scenario, you
are surrounded by people. You can make friends very quick
at a ball game. And I think the perfect scenario
would be. Let's just say you are a guy or
woman that travels for work and they're like, yeah, you
gotta go to your annual sales conference in Atlanta for
four days, and you're like, you know what, I'm gonna
(12:16):
go catch your braves game. I'm here for four days.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
I got nothing.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Doing like that to me sounds like productive. Yeah, at
least there's something more understandable about that, even though it's
a weird feeling. So based on jan solo, I mean
sodos twenty two of twenty home runs being solo bombs,
what are the best and we's solo missions? Let's go
to the phones eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox,
(12:40):
And of course you could always hit us up at
Covino Enrich at Fox Sports Radio. Hello Johnny in Minnesota,
Hey Johnny.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
Hey, what's some guys? Rich Covino, Hey, g what's upbody?
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Uh? The solo mission I got first is a Kevincgartnet.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
He did that for my Timberwolves for a very.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Long time and we couldn't help him all.
Speaker 7 (13:01):
For some reason.
Speaker 10 (13:03):
And the other one that we were just talking about was, oh,
there I go again.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Was he saying that he won basically by himself, like
Madison Bumgardner or something. Hold on, I wouldn't know why
he just said, oh crap, there I go again. I
think he had an accident in his pants. I mean, like,
I gotta go.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
I don't think he got the context of the topic.
Speaker 8 (13:30):
It's like, I like how he spun that though with
Kevin Garnett just by himself trying to do it all.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
I love that guy, and I love that you feel
like the Giants sort of won the World Series just
with Bumgarner, like I knew he was what he meant
by that, and then I think they said, he.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Look gonna spin this into another.
Speaker 8 (13:48):
Giants had some other guys too, They had deep pitching up.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
But I was that that was hilarious just in general.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
Remember when Kobe brought the Lakers to the playoffs basically
by himself.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
You know what I'm gonna do every time, every time
team game, Guys, every time I feel like I'm trying
to make a point and I lose it, I'm gonna go, oh, man,
I did it again. I said, oh, crap, crap, I
might pull that.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
That's an audio drop. Yeah, I need that.
Speaker 8 (14:15):
By the way, guys, we have just to borrow from
the parlance of Disney. We have f SR cast and
crew members who will go to disney Land by themselves
and just peruse around, and they do this routinely.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
By yourself. If you're not with me, I think you're
a weirdo. I'm sorry. You might not be a weirdo,
but you're perceived as a weirdo for sure. It's weird.
It's weird.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Oh that's coming up later on the show.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Yeah, we'll talk about Disney adults later on, because again
I'm fresh from Disney. I'm gonna tell you the best
rides in order to Let's go to John and Reno.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Oh, man, I did it again.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
I'll crap's John?
Speaker 3 (14:50):
What's up? Guys?
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Hey?
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Hey, how about for a solo mission?
Speaker 10 (14:56):
How about just taking care of yourself?
Speaker 9 (14:58):
The old lady's gone.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
It's it's it's funny. We jokingly said that off the air.
I wasn't gonna say that out of the air, but uh,
I would say, that's a good solo mission. No one
wants to see that. I would say, it's only a
solo miss unless you're Louis c k or a kicker.
Yeah yeah, and then yeah, I wouldn't recommend it, or
a Brown's quarter or a Brown's quarterback. John and Maine,
what's up, Bud?
Speaker 10 (15:20):
Hey, guys, how are you doing?
Speaker 3 (15:21):
What's up? Brother?
Speaker 10 (15:23):
I was gonna call for about the Brewers, but instead
I got a solo mission. My wife and I were
in Boden, Boden. I was with the army in Germany.
We went to the casino there and it's suit and tie,
shirt and tie, and I was in dressed blues. And
I left her alone at the bar for a second
(15:45):
and I went to the bathroom and I came back
and uh, here's some Italian guy. My wife was dressed
to the nines in her gown and he thought she
was his date for the night, if you know what
I mean. And uh, he was hitting on her, and
she didn't understand the word he was saying. I came
(16:06):
up behind him in my uniform. He turned around, his
eyes got about as wide as to be, and he
was like, oh.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Crap, John, when you said when you said solo mission,
I think we're gonna say And my wife left with
that guy, And I was so not the case. And again,
of course there's certain things that are just they're normal
when they're solo missions. It's just how it is getting
a haircut. You don't need someone holding your hand. You're
(16:35):
rolling there by yourself. Going to the gym, I don't
need a spotter. In fact, you're in my way. I
just want to get in and out. You know, certain
things are are are just always solo missions. Other ones
just feel weird, Like I said, going to a movie,
even though Rich says it's good. I think it's a
little weird. If it's a kid's movie, you're weirdo. Hey,
(16:57):
I went to see How to Train a Dragon by
your elf, you're weirdo. You are with a kid, yo, bro,
somebody keep an eye on that barrow and niece or
nephew or something. I borrow a kid. Yeah exactly. I'm
sure as a kid in your family that's real excited
to see the movie.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
Take them.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
I think a movie's fun if it's like, for instance,
I really you might say, wait for v h VHS,
Oh my god, what it is in nineteen ninety wait
for streaming. That's probably what most would say. But I
think I really want to go see Naked Gun. I
haven't seen it yet. I was gonna go see it
(17:36):
by myself this weekend, and I didn't speaking around to it.
But why by yourself?
Speaker 8 (17:40):
Well because everyone else here has already seen it, like
my buddy. Okay, Well, then let's go. I'm game anytime
you want.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
I'm busy.
Speaker 8 (17:50):
No, seriously, I was, I asked. I asked our Palita
lap who produces two Pros and a Cup of Joe,
and he sees it like the second it comes out
these movies, so everyone's seen it. They said, it's great,
get gun to see that, you know, Sam, go by yourself.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
No shame in that.
Speaker 8 (18:03):
I went to my first movie alone, probably about a
year or two ago, to see like a movie from
the nineteen seventies that was on the big screen. I
couldn't find anybody go with me, so I just went
there and sat by myself.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
I loved it. I had a great time.
Speaker 8 (18:16):
Everyone there was to geek out over the movie, so
it was just like it was.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
And by the way, so certain things you don't need
people to hold your hand. A lonely sandwich once in
a while is good for the soul. You know, you
gotta be comfortable with yourself. You need for one, you
don't need company all the time. But there are certain
things that are weird when you're just by yourself, you know,
i'd sandwich for one. I think some of these places
Danny or for one, are good for actually meeting people
(18:42):
and like minded people. Like let's say you're someone that's
into quote like nerd culture. You might find your queen
nerd if you went to like comic com by yourself,
or you might say that's that's ridiculous. But if there's
like a niche of something you're way into, let's say
you're into like, you can go as Wan solo. I'm sorry,
you can go as Han solo and find your princess life.
Speaker 8 (19:02):
Strike up a little conversation in the line for popcorn.
You know, you find your lady. I don't think it's hello,
my lady, lady. So your thoughts at covin on.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
Ritu will move along from Juan solo as he is
hitting all his home runs when it does not matter
at all. But hey, today's a new day. You know
what I find to be a good personal solo mission
like cleaning up because when wife, he or the girlfriend's around,
I'm like sort of waiting for them.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
To put the dishes away or something like.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
I don't know, it's just like a standoff, and I'm
more content with just laying there scratching my thighs on
the couch. But when I'm buying myself at the house,
that's what I'm like the most productive, get stuff done,
the house is clean.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
I like that feeling.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
So as far as cleaning up, that's always a solo
mission for me. All right, Wan Soda, Hopefully tomorrow he
starts doing something with people on base We are seventy
five percent through the baseball season, which is insane, So
getting ready for baseball playoffs and more importantly, getting ready
(20:10):
for the start the kickoff of the NFL season twenty
five days away. Now, Danny, every year, I purposely don't
look because I want to be surprised and I want
to have a good laugh with you guys USA today.
You know the old newspaper see they put on your
doorstep of the at the holiday and express who what
the old newspaper USA today? Guys they do that pocket
(20:34):
they leave it at the hotel. I can only imagine
where else.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
I think, I haven't seen it. You and I travel
all the time. I haven't seen it in a minute.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
So they do their annual football predictions and they're usually
a little wild, like they'll come up with some crazy predictions.
And I said that because last year, notably, they said
the Jets and Aaron Rodgers would win the Super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
That's just stupid.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Well, I mean it wasn't was it that crazy last year?
Speaker 1 (20:57):
Maybe it was a little Be sure to catch the
live edition The Dan Patrick Show weekdays at nine am
Eastern six am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the
iHeartRadio w app.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
Paully fools goheare with Tony Fosco.

Speaker 3 (21:20):
Quick, knowledgeable and funny, opinionated.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
What what are you doing interrupting our promo? Yeah, you
wasn't talking about you.
Speaker 10 (21:28):
You took those clips totally out of context.
Speaker 11 (21:30):
Oh yeah, Well after this promo, I'm gonna take you
out and beat you.
Speaker 2 (21:34):
Let me put this into context. Shut up.
Speaker 11 (21:37):
Yeah, anyway, just listen to the Paully and Tony Fusco
Show on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Yea.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
By the way, Iowa Sam is playing White Snake. Here
I go again like a drifter. I was born to
walk alone like a rebel looner.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Dottie, Oh, there I go again.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
And we were just wrapping up solo missions. But do
you know, oh crap original lyric to this song. Here's
a little fun fact before we give us. Before Danny
g gives us the USA Today twenty twenty five, NFL
Projections Covino and rich In for Dan Patrick. The original
lyric was like a hobo, I was born to walk alone.
(22:20):
I swear to God that's true. If he does the
original cut of that song and they change it because
they thought drifter was a little nicer than hobo, it's just.
Speaker 4 (22:27):
Hobo web like a hobo. I was born to walk
alone like a hobo. That was This is stupid sounding hobo.
I'm so glad they made that change. Who's your favorite hobo?
Speaker 2 (22:39):
Hobo Williams? Remember the guy, the hobo with the golden voice?
You know his name was Ted Williams, wasn't it. Yeah
that's right, not not the baseball player, the hobo. And
you know you had viral like ten years ago. Yeah,
remember he stood by an exit ramp of a highway
and then not do like craft Macaroni cheese commercials. And
you know you love you get the golden voice, you
(23:01):
know you love it like a hobo. He was born
to Walkama, I born to walk along, all right, Danny J.
Every year USA Today throws us for a loop. No, USA,
I don't know if they're gonna throw us for a
loop this year because I didn't peak at this I
was like, I want to be surprised. So Danny take
it away, buddy.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
What do we got? All right, let's start in the
AFC South. Of course, the Colts, Titans, Jags, Texans. Where
do you think they went with their predictions?
Speaker 2 (23:27):
What do I think the USA today went with the South?
I think the obvious thing would be to say, well,
likely the Texans. They're not a super Bowl team, but
they will win that division. So I feel like USA
today is, are we going to say they're going Texans
Cove or what?
Speaker 3 (23:44):
Yeah? Good call. They have them winning the division at
ten and seven.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Yeah that I was gonna say, like, and everyone else
in that division moderately maybe under five hundred.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
Yeah, exactly, under five hundred for the Jags, eight and nine,
Titans they have at five and twelve, Colts rounding out
the division at four and thirteen.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
So they think just by default that Houston's the only
winning team in that division. Okay, so so far, no surprises,
no surprises.
Speaker 9 (24:09):
So far.
Speaker 3 (24:09):
We'll go to the AFC East. Got the Dolphins, Jets, Pats, Bills.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
Easy breezy Bills, easy breezy summer girl. I think I
think they probably got the bills at like twelve and
five or thirteen and four.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
Yep, they had Wow, your money really thirteen and four
and they'f so money he doesn't even know it.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Yeah, kids today don't know how much we over use
that reference in the nineties and two thousand.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
That's the most dated reference.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
There're so money that you don't even know.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
I just took the whole Fox Sports Radio Nation back
to nineteen ninety six. But who are they predicting to
come in second place in the AFS? All right, hold on,
good one.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
They're they're they're they're being all sexy with their patriots
to really turn things around.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
I bet, oh, well, at least enough to be in
second place at eight and nine. Okay, but so far
you're right on.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
So they have no faith in Justin Fields, huh.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
They and they have the Jets at seven and ten
and the Dolphins at five and twelve.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Seven and so they had the Jets winning it all
last year to seven and ten this year. Okay, we're
going again, USA Today projections.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
All right, now, we'll move to the AFC West, all right,
So what do you guys think Raiders? Chargers Chiefs, Broncos.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
They're USA today. They're going to be a little crazy. Essay,
I think so too. I think this is where they're
trying to get controversial, like most lists are made with
Denver winning it all. Oh no, no, I think they
think harbad does it like? I feel like they're going
against I think they're going against the Chiefs for fun.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
Score one for Covino. Here they have the Broncos winning
the division at twelve and five.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
They did? They have the Chargers or Casey with a
winning record.
Speaker 3 (25:44):
They have the Raiders at eleven insig No, I'm kidding
they have they have the in my wildest dreams, they
have the Chiefs at eleven and six. And then who
do you hear?
Speaker 2 (25:53):
How high everyone's talking on bone Nicks?
Speaker 3 (25:55):
So I guess. And between the Chargers and Raiders, how
do you think they round out the AFC West.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
They probably have the Charges like nine and eighty.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
At nine and eight exactly for the Chargers. They say
the Raiders win five games, five and twelve. M So
hope that's wrong, all right? AFC North got the Browns, Bengals, Steelers, Ravens.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
See this is the tough one because no one expert
or total amateur. This is other than Cleveland being in
last place. I think I think they're gonna go Cincinnati.
I bet Cincinnati, Baltimore, and Pittsburgh are all teams of
people believe could be playoff.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Caliber Bengals or Ravens. Let's pick one.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
I think they're gonna say it's Joe Burrow's year.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
That's right. What do you think I should have went
with Covino? They got the Ravens at fourteen and three,
winning the division dam fourteen and three?
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Did they have Joe Burrow? Make it a little wild card?
Speaker 3 (26:48):
Right? They have the Bengals just a game above five
hundred nine and eight and third place the Steelers they
have coming in second place with an eleven and six record.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Man, that's a little generous too, though. I'm thinking ten
ten wins for the Steelers.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
And then you were right about the Browns as usual
three and fourteen. They can predict.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
All I tell your AFC is nothing, nothing crazy, that
it's going to be the worst team with the most coverage.
Speaker 3 (27:13):
And I'll get to their postseason picks at the end.
We'll move to the NFC now NFC South, of course,
the Saints Falcons Panthers Bucks.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
I think they're gonna go, oh, you're a big Baker guy, Cavino.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
Yeah, sticking with it.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
And while they while the while they while they are
probably the best team in that division, still there's gonna
be a sentiment that Carolina really takes it to a
new level this year. I think they're weird. Crazy pick
is that Carolina somehow emerges.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
Well, they have the Panthers at eight and nine coming
in second place. You're right, Coveno. They have the Bucks
at nine and eight topping the division. The Falcons they say,
seven and ten, Saints two and fifteen.
Speaker 10 (27:54):
Damn.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
So they feel like the winner of that division is
nine and eight. Huh yeah, all right, Well go to
the NFC West Rich. Of course, your Niners are in
that division with the Seahawks, Cardinals, and Rams. Anyone that
anyone that doesn't believe the forty nine ers win this division,
I think might as well be doing crack with Hobo
Williams on the side of the road, because it's gotta be.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
I mean, it's drifter Williams.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
I mean, especially they changed it to drift. If you're
with Drifter Williams, I look at it this way, with
Matthew Stafford banged up already. The guy there was we
were talking about epidorals last week. He's in pain the
way a woman giving birth is saying it with confidence.
Forty nine ers, no diggity, no doubt. And my other
(28:39):
thought is that any one of the things otherwise isn't answer.
You know, the quarterback. It's the weakest division for quarterbacks,
which is why brock party will emerge, because if Stafford's
not playing, it's Jimmy Garoppolo, Kyler Murray and and who
the redheaded uh Sam Darnold too.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
Of the Niners atop the NFC West at eleven and six,
but TI tied at the top with another team at
eleven and six. They have the Rams tied with the Niners,
and then the Cardinals at nine and eight, and then
the Seahawks also at nine and eight, so they got two.
They got double ties there.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
They think this is a all teams over five hundred they.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
Yep, all right, We'll move to the NFC East with
our Super Bowl champion Eagles, Giants, Cowboys commanders.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
All right, USA today always has to do something a
little while because otherwise who would care?
Speaker 8 (29:32):
No.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
My final answer, Eagles Commanders, Cowboys, Giants. I think they're
going they're going crazy and be like Cowboys. Man, I
bet you they have something preposterous like Cowboys win the division.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
Yeah, they have the Eagles winning the division at twelve
and five, keeping it boring, Commanders at ten and seven,
Cowboys game above five hundred at nine and eight, and
the Giants they're saying two and fifteen they got no
love for Jackson Darky. The Giants, well, you know that
would that would mean I mean, listen, the Giants are
going to win more than two games.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
I mean, I'm not saying I'm not putting this crazy
faith in Russ or Dable or anything going on there.
But two wins is like, that's awful. Like two and
fifteen is like.
Speaker 8 (30:15):
Like like.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Tommy Cutlets has one of the wins. That's my that's
your hot. Yeah, and he has one of their two wins.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
All right, We'll move to the NFC North, of course, Chicago,
the Vikings, Lions, and Packers. Oh my.
Speaker 2 (30:32):
Again, this is one of those divisions where I think
there's people in the preseason making cases for all of them.
Unless they've gone really unless they've gone very conservative, not outlandish,
they might say, like the Bears emerged and Caleb Williams
takes it to the next level. But my guess is
they think the Lions are still number one.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
What do you think, reed, Yeah, they predict the Packers
wow to win the NFC North at twelve and five.
They have the Lions coming in second with eleven and
six at eleven and six, then the Vikings at nine
and eight, and they have Chicago in last place at
seven and ten.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
Number still still trying to get there and.
Speaker 3 (31:10):
Now and then you want you want do you just
want the Super Bowl picks? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (31:14):
I want to say so they have the Super Bowl
winner and loser.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
Yes, super Bowl sixty in Santa Clara, California.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
I bet their alliterative super Bowl sixty in Santa Clara
Bill's over Packers. What do you think, Cove based on
their what they said, Bill, Yeah, I know, yeah, it's
gotta be the Bill's Eagles over Broncos those over Packers.
You're thinking, well, based on what they've said, based on
(31:43):
their I don't believe the Packers, Bill's over the Lions.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
Okay, USA Today Sports predicts it will be the Ravens
defeating the Packers.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
Ravens Packers. Wow, would be a good one. So nothing
too crazy this year from their Yeah, I wasn't going
with their list anyway, I'm not buying into that. I
don't think the Packers are gonna be better than the Lions.
But man, wait, so what do they got again? The
Bills over the Packers.
Speaker 12 (32:11):
No, they have the Ravens defeating the Ravens over the Packers,
and you know you love it, So congrats to Baltimore.
Speaker 2 (32:22):
I have a question for you guys. You know what,
at least it's not as bad as last year. That's
that's believable.
Speaker 3 (32:28):
They're championship games. By the way, they have the Ravens
defeating the Chiefs and the Packers defeating the Rams.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Staffords such a big factor there. Otherwise, you got Jimmy G.
He's the most handsome guy. But I don't know if
you if Jimmy G's taking another team to an NFC
championship game, that seems unlikely. I will ask you this
one question before.
Speaker 7 (32:47):
We move on.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
But hold on, Let's at least acknowledge that USA Today
put out a pretty decent prediction as opposed to last year,
which I think last year was like they were messing
with us give Ravens Packers.
Speaker 3 (32:59):
That's believable, is there?
Speaker 9 (33:02):
This is the.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
Conversation for another day. But off the top of your
off the top of the dome right now, is there
a team you can ask me to freestyle?
Speaker 13 (33:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (33:10):
Yeah, right now you're like you're Harry Mack through off
the top of the dome, like Harry Mack. Yeah, we'll
I'll give you a word. There's a lot of pressure
stuff freestyle rapping right now? Is there a team that
didn't make it last year? Because we always joke and
you make fun of me because I overuse the word parody,
the parody in the league, and how every year half
the teams that made the playoffs the year before don't
(33:30):
make it. Who makes the playoffs this year that didn't
make it last year? I feel like you have an answer.
I think answered it around. I think the two teams
I feel like are back in the mix, forty nine
Ers and the Bengals. I think I think the narrative
that the Bengals starts slow will change this year. And
(33:51):
I think, and we already said, Joe Burrow taking snaps,
having a preseason, getting a head start, and watching that hell,
watching quarterback Cavino made me realize how many tough losses
it had been lost on me. Danny, how early in
the year, how many tough losses that Bengals came at,
real tough loss and they went either way and they
were fighting. They could very easily have been three and
(34:13):
oho instead of zero and three last year. I like
your answer, So I think I think the Bengals and
the forty nine ers who were just banged up. No McCaffrey,
no Kidd. There was a lot of injuries last year.
Trent Williams was banged up. So I think Niners in
a weak ass NFC West and the Bengals. Those are
the two teams that I feel like, are you know,
re emerging in the playoffs this year.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
Punch your screen. Make fun of us. Drow mustaches on US.
I don't care moon us, I do whatever you want.
Speaker 4 (02:15):
Now.
Speaker 2 (02:17):
Had a great weekend. I was in Disney and we're
gonna talk about Disney freaks, and I think Disney sort
of ties into this discussion. Yea, Wan solo, they're calling
him Wan Soto has twenty eight home runs. That's great
and grand and all, but twenty two of them are
solo shots. That's a lot. That's too many to be
a coincident dance. Yeah, that's it's it's a bummer because
(02:41):
Wan Soda is a type of guy you're counting on
to come through in those big clutch moments because he
has historically been that guy. This year, with runners in
scoring position, the guy might as well be Bett in
zero point zero. But hey, when no one's up and
the Mets are down five runs, he's good for a
solo shot, right, and then numbers prove it. So based
on that, I was thinking about the best and worst
(03:04):
solo missions, because some things you could pull off solo.
Other things just make you look like a weirdo. Now
I got one to get it going, and we'll take
your phone calls. At eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox,
Covino and Rich in for Dan Patrick. We're here tomorrow,
Wednesday and Friday. Now, you would think you would think
that going clothes shopping with your significant other is a
(03:29):
plus or a positive because you can get a second opinion. Hey,
what do you think of these? Sweet Travis Matthew Jean's Hey,
what do you think of it? A sweet shirt?
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Right?
Speaker 2 (03:39):
I think your girlfriend or wife. He only confuses you
and makes it worse and you end up getting nothing.
Speaker 3 (03:45):
Man, I didn't get anything.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
I find that I'm more productive when I'm by myself.
I'm there, I'm on a mission. I like it, I
buy it. I walk away with a whole bunch of stuff.
She may hate it when I get home, But I
was productive and I got all that stuff. I mean,
and I know with someone else I get nothing done.
I mean, I'm thinking bigger scale and small scale, Like
to me get that last sip of coffee?
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
I hate when people shy away. I do effect you
know we're on in the morning. I'm offending when people
shy away from the last sip, like they're offending people.
Like if I have a milkshake or an ice an
ice drink, I will slurp that last sip, So.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
Go on, come on, make that coffee to go.
Speaker 2 (04:22):
Let's go, Hey, come on. You know one time I
was on a date, Danny J.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Sam.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
I was on a date, and you know when you
have like a little bit of your drink left, but
like significant it's there right there. Waiter came and took
my like last sippy sip of my cocktail, and I said, hey,
I wasn't finished. And you think about it, if you
paid for that, you're going to a nice restaurant and
you get like some if you get like a drink
(04:46):
that's called like the whiskey business or something, or some
eighteen dollars twenty dollars drink, eighteen dollars cocktail at Hobbyer's right,
and he took my drink. I was even finished, so
I said, hey, ninety four dollars. It's a ninety four
dollars drink. As I give that back. The girl I
was with didn't know me that well. She like squeezed
my leg and like bitter lips. This just mean cholack girl.
(05:08):
She's like, you ever do that again.
Speaker 5 (05:10):
She's like I'm gonna sleep your neck or something. She's like,
don't you embarrass me? Like that okay, shit, She's like,
you embarrassed me. I'm like, embarrassing you. The guy took
my drink. She's like, that was embarrassing gave. I was like,
they can pay for your own meal. The day was
pretty much over after that twenty dollars drink.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
You're like, that was a four dollars cent that being said,
let me finish my coffee anyway. So I gave you
a good one, Rach, let me give you a bad one.
I just came back from Disney, and I think if
you're going on rides by yourself, Like, if you're the
lonely guy on the teacups by yourself, you're a loser.
I'm sorry. You might have your reasoning or your excuse
or maybe like there was no room for you in
(05:49):
the other tea cup. But if I see one lonely
dude spinning around by himself, I'm thinking, what sort of
weirdo is that? Single Rider? You know, there's a new
dating app by the way, I'm sorry, I'm to be
all over the place, but there's an actual dating app,
I believe, called single Rider, where you can meet other
singles at a theme park. But I've been going to
(06:09):
a theme park by yourself, a lame solo mission. I'll
give you a good one, though, a simple good one.
I'm not going to the supermarket by myself because I
feel like my wife buys stuff we don't need and
it takes forever and my kids get in the way.
Stereotype and be sexist rich because I'm not that's you.
But women love to go down every aisle. It's like,
(06:30):
that's not how this works. Just get what you need.
I go to Costco. My girlfriend's eat and out like
like we're going in every like a little maze. It's
like we got I think we need a battery generator.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
Of what my girl window shops down each aisle. I'm
with you, you're productive. When we're wealthy, We're going to
get two of those. YEA, no thanks, let's get with you.
Speaker 2 (06:57):
That's a good solo mission.
Speaker 3 (06:59):
I think.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
I think a weird solo mission would be going somewhere
like bowling or mini golf or something like that. I mean,
I the lonely bowler. Watch out for that guy, uh
Dan in Michigan. What's up man? We'll start with you.
Solo missions, which are good ones? Which are bad ones?
Speaker 6 (07:18):
Hey, guys, you tell me if this is weird or not.
Right around this time of year, I absolutely love getting
out on the golf course early in the morning when
I have the course to myself, put my AirPods in
and walk nine to eighteen holes, just kind of do
my thing by myself.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
You know, I don't mind it. I don't.
Speaker 3 (07:35):
I don't mind that at all. You know what I
did once, I feel like it's just you being active
and productive.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
Judge me on this one or not. It was around September,
so about them around this time of year. Back in
the day, the Mets were in a Pennant race and
it was one of those final weekends of the year,
and none of my Mets buddies were available. I went
to a ballgame by myself.
Speaker 3 (07:58):
How was it? Weird? Lonely?
Speaker 2 (08:01):
High five inself? That's lost, so it's even worse. But like,
is that a weird one?
Speaker 3 (08:05):
Is that?
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Is that a lonely one?
Speaker 7 (08:06):
Like?
Speaker 2 (08:06):
No, I think those are things you want to share
with buddies. Do What about like a super Bowl where
a super fan's like, I can't afford it, but there's
a solo ticket that's affordable, like because it's one you know,
like you go to a Can you go to a
concert by yourself?
Speaker 3 (08:20):
Or is that weird? You know?
Speaker 2 (08:22):
I feel Here's how I feel about that. I feel like,
if you can't find something to go with, like you
were so determined to go, you're such a fan that
you went regardless, make friends. I almost yeah, and you
can make friends. I actually give you credit for that.
I don't recommend it, but I it's like going to
vacation by yourself. It's like, yeah, you had no one
to go with, but I commend you for still going
(08:42):
and doing something traveling maybe eat if it feels weird,
even if it's okay, because if you're watching something like
a game or a concert or a movie or something.
I was in New York City recently by myself for
like a quick turnover a day. I didn't have time
to call any of my family friends like meet me
in the city, but I did have a chunk of
time to kill. I went to go see Back to
the Future on Broadway by myself, And that is that weird?
Speaker 3 (09:07):
Is that weird?
Speaker 1 (09:08):
I mean?
Speaker 2 (09:08):
But I understand. I mean the New York Jets on
Hard Knocks sold me. It's more understandable than like a
guy at a theme park by himself. I'm like, what's
going on with that guy? I've won this one lame
question because it's it's smut based. I mentioned it before,
kind of question. When you're like a younger man. Let's
(09:28):
say you go to an adult establishment when you were
with your buddies and it's like a bachelor party. You
are like, hey, John's birthday. I feel like it seems
more innocent. If you go to a strip club by yourself,
it seems like it goes from innocent camaraderie to what
a creeper? You know, I think I've done that, And
looking back, I'll say, yeah, what a creep I think
(09:49):
I did because you're horned up, like twenty something year
old guy, just excited.
Speaker 8 (09:54):
Because the guy in the corner with in the shadows
with the male gaze.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
Yeah, because it's you. You're like, what, I'm not a
weird guy. You justify it like I'm a good guy.
But it was drooling and staring ahead. But in retrospect,
it is weird. If we were younger men, it was like, Hey,
it's Spot's birthday, or I was Sam's birthday. We're going
out for dinner, We're gonna go to the strip club.
That's like you're quintessential twenty eighth. Okay, some of your
own guy birthday socialist yourself. If you're walking through Chicago
(10:23):
or DC or Miami or New York and you're like,
I'm by myself, you go into the strip club, I
feel like you are. It's like you're, yeah, you're you're
really being controlled in that moment by what's on your
pants in like the most Like my god, I'm not
one of those guys that feels really cool getting a
lap dance or something in front of all my buds
(10:45):
cheering me on. I think that's weird too. I hate that.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Oh, it's like more of a private moment.
Speaker 2 (10:51):
Yeah, you don't need Sam looking at me and laughing
while you know the dance is going on. I remember
one time one time, you know, and I were with
some old school buddies. This is back in the day.
We've known each other decades. I remember sometimes you don't
want to see your buddy's freak face. I remember one
time we were at we were at one of these
(11:11):
places and we saw one of our buddies getting an
adult dance so hypnotized, and we both looked at him, like,
look at the look in his eyes. I don't ever
want to see that demon guy. What's going on? I
can only imagine in that moment he probably sounded like
a little mickey.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
Let me take it to sports for a second. Yeah,
have you either of you gone to a baseball, football,
or basketball game by yourself?
Speaker 9 (11:36):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (11:36):
I mentioned before I went to I went to I
went to a Mets game solo. I think here's a
good one. Danny, let's say business. I haven't, but I
could see that Danny, like, you know you're there and
like no one wants to go with your splurge on
a home game.
Speaker 3 (11:52):
Yeah, home game. You feel like forty friends are there
with you.
Speaker 6 (11:55):
Yes.
Speaker 2 (11:55):
I think when it is that type of scenario, you
are surrounded by people. You can make friends very quick
at a ball game. And I think the perfect scenario
would be. Let's just say you are a guy or
woman that travels for work and they're like, yeah, you
gotta go to your annual sales conference in Atlanta for
four days, and you're like, you know what, I'm gonna
(12:16):
go catch your braves game. I'm here for four days.
Speaker 3 (12:19):
I got nothing.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Doing like that to me sounds like productive. Yeah, at
least there's something more understandable about that, even though it's
a weird feeling. So based on jan solo, I mean
sodos twenty two of twenty home runs being solo bombs,
what are the best and we's solo missions? Let's go
to the phones eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox,
(12:40):
And of course you could always hit us up at
Covino Enrich at Fox Sports Radio. Hello Johnny in Minnesota,
Hey Johnny.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
Hey, what's some guys? Rich Covino, Hey, g what's upbody?
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Uh? The solo mission I got first is a Kevincgartnet.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
He did that for my Timberwolves for a very.
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Long time and we couldn't help him all.
Speaker 7 (13:01):
For some reason.
Speaker 10 (13:03):
And the other one that we were just talking about was, oh,
there I go again.
Speaker 2 (13:09):
Was he saying that he won basically by himself, like
Madison Bumgardner or something. Hold on, I wouldn't know why
he just said, oh crap, there I go again. I
think he had an accident in his pants. I mean, like,
I gotta go.
Speaker 3 (13:27):
I don't think he got the context of the topic.
Speaker 8 (13:30):
It's like, I like how he spun that though with
Kevin Garnett just by himself trying to do it all.
Speaker 2 (13:35):
I love that guy, and I love that you feel
like the Giants sort of won the World Series just
with Bumgarner, like I knew he was what he meant
by that, and then I think they said, he.
Speaker 3 (13:44):
Look gonna spin this into another.
Speaker 8 (13:48):
Giants had some other guys too, They had deep pitching up.
Speaker 2 (13:51):
But I was that that was hilarious just in general.
Speaker 3 (13:55):
Remember when Kobe brought the Lakers to the playoffs basically
by himself.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
You know what I'm gonna do every time, every time
team game, Guys, every time I feel like I'm trying
to make a point and I lose it, I'm gonna go, oh, man,
I did it again. I said, oh, crap, crap, I
might pull that.
Speaker 3 (14:12):
That's an audio drop. Yeah, I need that.
Speaker 8 (14:15):
By the way, guys, we have just to borrow from
the parlance of Disney. We have f SR cast and
crew members who will go to disney Land by themselves
and just peruse around, and they do this routinely.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
By yourself. If you're not with me, I think you're
a weirdo. I'm sorry. You might not be a weirdo,
but you're perceived as a weirdo for sure. It's weird.
It's weird.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
Oh that's coming up later on the show.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
Yeah, we'll talk about Disney adults later on, because again
I'm fresh from Disney. I'm gonna tell you the best
rides in order to Let's go to John and Reno.
Speaker 3 (14:46):
Oh, man, I did it again.
Speaker 2 (14:47):
I'll crap's John?
Speaker 3 (14:50):
What's up? Guys?
Speaker 2 (14:51):
Hey?
Speaker 3 (14:52):
Hey, how about for a solo mission?
Speaker 10 (14:56):
How about just taking care of yourself?
Speaker 9 (14:58):
The old lady's gone.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
It's it's it's funny. We jokingly said that off the air.
I wasn't gonna say that out of the air, but uh,
I would say, that's a good solo mission. No one
wants to see that. I would say, it's only a
solo miss unless you're Louis c k or a kicker.
Yeah yeah, and then yeah, I wouldn't recommend it, or
a Brown's quarter or a Brown's quarterback. John and Maine,
what's up, Bud?
Speaker 10 (15:20):
Hey, guys, how are you doing?
Speaker 3 (15:21):
What's up? Brother?
Speaker 10 (15:23):
I was gonna call for about the Brewers, but instead
I got a solo mission. My wife and I were
in Boden, Boden. I was with the army in Germany.
We went to the casino there and it's suit and tie,
shirt and tie, and I was in dressed blues. And
I left her alone at the bar for a second
(15:45):
and I went to the bathroom and I came back
and uh, here's some Italian guy. My wife was dressed
to the nines in her gown and he thought she
was his date for the night, if you know what
I mean. And uh, he was hitting on her, and
she didn't understand the word he was saying. I came
(16:06):
up behind him in my uniform. He turned around, his
eyes got about as wide as to be, and he
was like, oh.
Speaker 2 (16:14):
Crap, John, when you said when you said solo mission,
I think we're gonna say And my wife left with
that guy, And I was so not the case. And again,
of course there's certain things that are just they're normal
when they're solo missions. It's just how it is getting
a haircut. You don't need someone holding your hand. You're
(16:35):
rolling there by yourself. Going to the gym, I don't
need a spotter. In fact, you're in my way. I
just want to get in and out. You know, certain
things are are are just always solo missions. Other ones
just feel weird, Like I said, going to a movie,
even though Rich says it's good. I think it's a
little weird. If it's a kid's movie, you're weirdo. Hey,
(16:57):
I went to see How to Train a Dragon by
your elf, you're weirdo. You are with a kid, yo, bro,
somebody keep an eye on that barrow and niece or
nephew or something. I borrow a kid. Yeah exactly. I'm
sure as a kid in your family that's real excited
to see the movie.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
Take them.
Speaker 2 (17:15):
I think a movie's fun if it's like, for instance,
I really you might say, wait for v h VHS,
Oh my god, what it is in nineteen ninety wait
for streaming. That's probably what most would say. But I
think I really want to go see Naked Gun. I
haven't seen it yet. I was gonna go see it
(17:36):
by myself this weekend, and I didn't speaking around to it.
But why by yourself?
Speaker 8 (17:40):
Well because everyone else here has already seen it, like
my buddy. Okay, Well, then let's go. I'm game anytime
you want.
Speaker 3 (17:48):
I'm busy.
Speaker 8 (17:50):
No, seriously, I was, I asked. I asked our Palita
lap who produces two Pros and a Cup of Joe,
and he sees it like the second it comes out
these movies, so everyone's seen it. They said, it's great,
get gun to see that, you know, Sam, go by yourself.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
No shame in that.
Speaker 8 (18:03):
I went to my first movie alone, probably about a
year or two ago, to see like a movie from
the nineteen seventies that was on the big screen. I
couldn't find anybody go with me, so I just went
there and sat by myself.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
I loved it. I had a great time.
Speaker 8 (18:16):
Everyone there was to geek out over the movie, so
it was just like it was.
Speaker 4 (18:19):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
And by the way, so certain things you don't need
people to hold your hand. A lonely sandwich once in
a while is good for the soul. You know, you
gotta be comfortable with yourself. You need for one, you
don't need company all the time. But there are certain
things that are weird when you're just by yourself, you know,
i'd sandwich for one. I think some of these places
Danny or for one, are good for actually meeting people
(18:42):
and like minded people. Like let's say you're someone that's
into quote like nerd culture. You might find your queen
nerd if you went to like comic com by yourself,
or you might say that's that's ridiculous. But if there's
like a niche of something you're way into, let's say
you're into like, you can go as Wan solo. I'm sorry,
you can go as Han solo and find your princess life.
Speaker 8 (19:02):
Strike up a little conversation in the line for popcorn.
You know, you find your lady. I don't think it's hello,
my lady, lady. So your thoughts at covin on.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
Ritu will move along from Juan solo as he is
hitting all his home runs when it does not matter
at all. But hey, today's a new day. You know
what I find to be a good personal solo mission
like cleaning up because when wife, he or the girlfriend's around,
I'm like sort of waiting for them.
Speaker 3 (19:29):
To put the dishes away or something like.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
I don't know, it's just like a standoff, and I'm
more content with just laying there scratching my thighs on
the couch. But when I'm buying myself at the house,
that's what I'm like the most productive, get stuff done,
the house is clean.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
I like that feeling.
Speaker 2 (19:49):
So as far as cleaning up, that's always a solo
mission for me. All right, Wan Soda, Hopefully tomorrow he
starts doing something with people on base We are seventy
five percent through the baseball season, which is insane, So
getting ready for baseball playoffs and more importantly, getting ready
(20:10):
for the start the kickoff of the NFL season twenty
five days away. Now, Danny, every year, I purposely don't
look because I want to be surprised and I want
to have a good laugh with you guys USA today.
You know the old newspaper see they put on your
doorstep of the at the holiday and express who what
the old newspaper USA today? Guys they do that pocket
(20:34):
they leave it at the hotel. I can only imagine
where else.
Speaker 3 (20:36):
I think, I haven't seen it. You and I travel
all the time. I haven't seen it in a minute.
Speaker 2 (20:39):
So they do their annual football predictions and they're usually
a little wild, like they'll come up with some crazy predictions.
And I said that because last year, notably, they said
the Jets and Aaron Rodgers would win the Super Bowl.
Speaker 3 (20:52):
That's just stupid.
Speaker 2 (20:54):
Well, I mean it wasn't was it that crazy last year?
Speaker 1 (20:57):

Speaker 3 (21:20):
Quick, knowledgeable and funny, opinionated.
Speaker 1 (21:23):
What what are you doing interrupting our promo? Yeah, you
wasn't talking about you.
Speaker 10 (21:28):
You took those clips totally out of context.
Speaker 11 (21:30):
Oh yeah, Well after this promo, I'm gonna take you

Speaker 2 (21:34):

Show on iHeartRadio, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
Yea.
Speaker 2 (21:46):
By the way, Iowa Sam is playing White Snake. Here
I go again like a drifter. I was born to
walk alone like a rebel looner.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Dottie, Oh, there I go again.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
And we were just wrapping up solo missions. But do
you know, oh crap original lyric to this song. Here's
a little fun fact before we give us. Before Danny
g gives us the USA Today twenty twenty five, NFL
Projections Covino and rich In for Dan Patrick. The original
lyric was like a hobo, I was born to walk alone.
(22:20):
I swear to God that's true. If he does the
original cut of that song and they change it because
they thought drifter was a little nicer than hobo, it's just.
Speaker 4 (22:27):
Hobo web like a hobo. I was born to walk
alone like a hobo. That was This is stupid sounding hobo.
I'm so glad they made that change. Who's your favorite hobo?
Speaker 2 (22:39):
Hobo Williams? Remember the guy, the hobo with the golden voice?
You know his name was Ted Williams, wasn't it. Yeah
that's right, not not the baseball player, the hobo. And
you know you had viral like ten years ago. Yeah,
remember he stood by an exit ramp of a highway
and then not do like craft Macaroni cheese commercials. And
you know you love you get the golden voice, you
(23:01):
know you love it like a hobo. He was born
to Walkama, I born to walk along, all right, Danny J.
Every year USA Today throws us for a loop. No, USA,
I don't know if they're gonna throw us for a
loop this year because I didn't peak at this I
was like, I want to be surprised. So Danny take
it away, buddy.
Speaker 3 (23:19):
What do we got? All right, let's start in the
AFC South. Of course, the Colts, Titans, Jags, Texans. Where
do you think they went with their predictions?
Speaker 2 (23:27):
What do I think the USA today went with the South?
I think the obvious thing would be to say, well,
likely the Texans. They're not a super Bowl team, but
they will win that division. So I feel like USA
today is, are we going to say they're going Texans
Cove or what?
Speaker 3 (23:44):
Yeah? Good call. They have them winning the division at
ten and seven.
Speaker 2 (23:48):
Yeah that I was gonna say, like, and everyone else
in that division moderately maybe under five hundred.
Speaker 3 (23:53):
Yeah, exactly, under five hundred for the Jags, eight and nine,
Titans they have at five and twelve, Colts rounding out
the division at four and thirteen.
Speaker 2 (24:01):
So they think just by default that Houston's the only
winning team in that division. Okay, so so far, no surprises,
no surprises.
Speaker 9 (24:09):
So far.
Speaker 3 (24:09):
We'll go to the AFC East. Got the Dolphins, Jets, Pats, Bills.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
Easy breezy Bills, easy breezy summer girl. I think I
think they probably got the bills at like twelve and
five or thirteen and four.
Speaker 3 (24:21):
Yep, they had Wow, your money really thirteen and four
and they'f so money he doesn't even know it.
Speaker 2 (24:26):
Yeah, kids today don't know how much we over use
that reference in the nineties and two thousand.
Speaker 3 (24:31):
That's the most dated reference.
Speaker 2 (24:32):
There're so money that you don't even know.
Speaker 3 (24:34):
I just took the whole Fox Sports Radio Nation back
to nineteen ninety six. But who are they predicting to
come in second place in the AFS? All right, hold on,
good one.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
They're they're they're they're being all sexy with their patriots
to really turn things around.
Speaker 3 (24:46):
I bet, oh, well, at least enough to be in
second place at eight and nine. Okay, but so far
you're right on.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
So they have no faith in Justin Fields, huh.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
They and they have the Jets at seven and ten
and the Dolphins at five and twelve.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Seven and so they had the Jets winning it all
last year to seven and ten this year. Okay, we're
going again, USA Today projections.
Speaker 3 (25:08):
All right, now, we'll move to the AFC West, all right,
So what do you guys think Raiders? Chargers Chiefs, Broncos.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
They're USA today. They're going to be a little crazy. Essay,
I think so too. I think this is where they're
trying to get controversial, like most lists are made with
Denver winning it all. Oh no, no, I think they
think harbad does it like? I feel like they're going
against I think they're going against the Chiefs for fun.
Speaker 3 (25:33):
Score one for Covino. Here they have the Broncos winning
the division at twelve and five.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
They did? They have the Chargers or Casey with a
winning record.
Speaker 3 (25:44):
They have the Raiders at eleven insig No, I'm kidding
they have they have the in my wildest dreams, they
have the Chiefs at eleven and six. And then who
do you hear?
Speaker 2 (25:53):
How high everyone's talking on bone Nicks?
Speaker 3 (25:55):
So I guess. And between the Chargers and Raiders, how
do you think they round out the AFC West.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
They probably have the Charges like nine and eighty.
Speaker 3 (26:03):
At nine and eight exactly for the Chargers. They say
the Raiders win five games, five and twelve. M So
hope that's wrong, all right? AFC North got the Browns, Bengals, Steelers, Ravens.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
See this is the tough one because no one expert
or total amateur. This is other than Cleveland being in
last place. I think I think they're gonna go Cincinnati.
I bet Cincinnati, Baltimore, and Pittsburgh are all teams of
people believe could be playoff.
Speaker 3 (26:33):
Caliber Bengals or Ravens. Let's pick one.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
I think they're gonna say it's Joe Burrow's year.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
That's right. What do you think I should have went
with Covino? They got the Ravens at fourteen and three,
winning the division dam fourteen and three?
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Did they have Joe Burrow? Make it a little wild card?
Speaker 3 (26:48):
Right? They have the Bengals just a game above five
hundred nine and eight and third place the Steelers they
have coming in second place with an eleven and six record.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Man, that's a little generous too, though. I'm thinking ten
ten wins for the Steelers.
Speaker 3 (27:02):
And then you were right about the Browns as usual
three and fourteen. They can predict.
Speaker 2 (27:06):
All I tell your AFC is nothing, nothing crazy, that
it's going to be the worst team with the most coverage.
Speaker 3 (27:13):
And I'll get to their postseason picks at the end.
We'll move to the NFC now NFC South, of course,
the Saints Falcons Panthers Bucks.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
I think they're gonna go, oh, you're a big Baker guy, Cavino.
Speaker 3 (27:25):
Yeah, sticking with it.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
And while they while the while they while they are
probably the best team in that division, still there's gonna
be a sentiment that Carolina really takes it to a
new level this year. I think they're weird. Crazy pick
is that Carolina somehow emerges.
Speaker 3 (27:43):
Well, they have the Panthers at eight and nine coming
in second place. You're right, Coveno. They have the Bucks
at nine and eight topping the division. The Falcons they say,
seven and ten, Saints two and fifteen.
Speaker 10 (27:54):
Damn.
Speaker 2 (27:55):
So they feel like the winner of that division is
nine and eight. Huh yeah, all right, Well go to
the NFC West Rich. Of course, your Niners are in
that division with the Seahawks, Cardinals, and Rams. Anyone that
anyone that doesn't believe the forty nine ers win this division,
I think might as well be doing crack with Hobo
Williams on the side of the road, because it's gotta be.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
I mean, it's drifter Williams.
Speaker 2 (28:18):
I mean, especially they changed it to drift. If you're
with Drifter Williams, I look at it this way, with
Matthew Stafford banged up already. The guy there was we
were talking about epidorals last week. He's in pain the
way a woman giving birth is saying it with confidence.
Forty nine ers, no diggity, no doubt. And my other
(28:39):
thought is that any one of the things otherwise isn't answer.
You know, the quarterback. It's the weakest division for quarterbacks,
which is why brock party will emerge, because if Stafford's
not playing, it's Jimmy Garoppolo, Kyler Murray and and who
the redheaded uh Sam Darnold too.
Speaker 3 (29:00):
Of the Niners atop the NFC West at eleven and six,
but TI tied at the top with another team at
eleven and six. They have the Rams tied with the Niners,
and then the Cardinals at nine and eight, and then
the Seahawks also at nine and eight, so they got two.
They got double ties there.
Speaker 2 (29:18):
They think this is a all teams over five hundred they.
Speaker 3 (29:20):
Yep, all right, We'll move to the NFC East with
our Super Bowl champion Eagles, Giants, Cowboys commanders.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
All right, USA today always has to do something a
little while because otherwise who would care?
Speaker 8 (29:32):
No.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
My final answer, Eagles Commanders, Cowboys, Giants. I think they're
going they're going crazy and be like Cowboys. Man, I
bet you they have something preposterous like Cowboys win the division.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
Yeah, they have the Eagles winning the division at twelve
and five, keeping it boring, Commanders at ten and seven,
Cowboys game above five hundred at nine and eight, and
the Giants they're saying two and fifteen they got no
love for Jackson Darky. The Giants, well, you know that
would that would mean I mean, listen, the Giants are
going to win more than two games.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
I mean, I'm not saying I'm not putting this crazy
faith in Russ or Dable or anything going on there.
But two wins is like, that's awful. Like two and
fifteen is like.
Speaker 8 (30:15):
Like like.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Tommy Cutlets has one of the wins. That's my that's
your hot. Yeah, and he has one of their two wins.
Speaker 3 (30:23):
All right, We'll move to the NFC North, of course, Chicago,
the Vikings, Lions, and Packers. Oh my.
Speaker 2 (30:32):
Again, this is one of those divisions where I think
there's people in the preseason making cases for all of them.
Unless they've gone really unless they've gone very conservative, not outlandish,
they might say, like the Bears emerged and Caleb Williams
takes it to the next level. But my guess is
they think the Lions are still number one.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
What do you think, reed, Yeah, they predict the Packers
wow to win the NFC North at twelve and five.
They have the Lions coming in second with eleven and
six at eleven and six, then the Vikings at nine
and eight, and they have Chicago in last place at
seven and ten.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
Number still still trying to get there and.
Speaker 3 (31:10):
Now and then you want you want do you just
want the Super Bowl picks? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (31:14):
I want to say so they have the Super Bowl
winner and loser.
Speaker 3 (31:16):
Yes, super Bowl sixty in Santa Clara, California.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
I bet their alliterative super Bowl sixty in Santa Clara
Bill's over Packers. What do you think, Cove based on
their what they said, Bill, Yeah, I know, yeah, it's
gotta be the Bill's Eagles over Broncos those over Packers.
You're thinking, well, based on what they've said, based on
(31:43):
their I don't believe the Packers, Bill's over the Lions.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
Okay, USA Today Sports predicts it will be the Ravens
defeating the Packers.
Speaker 2 (31:53):
Ravens Packers. Wow, would be a good one. So nothing
too crazy this year from their Yeah, I wasn't going
with their list anyway, I'm not buying into that. I
don't think the Packers are gonna be better than the Lions.
But man, wait, so what do they got again? The
Bills over the Packers.
Speaker 12 (32:11):
No, they have the Ravens defeating the Ravens over the Packers,
and you know you love it, So congrats to Baltimore.
Speaker 2 (32:22):
I have a question for you guys. You know what,
at least it's not as bad as last year. That's
that's believable.
Speaker 3 (32:28):
They're championship games. By the way, they have the Ravens
defeating the Chiefs and the Packers defeating the Rams.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Staffords such a big factor there. Otherwise, you got Jimmy G.
He's the most handsome guy. But I don't know if
you if Jimmy G's taking another team to an NFC
championship game, that seems unlikely. I will ask you this
one question before.
Speaker 7 (32:47):
We move on.
Speaker 2 (32:47):
But hold on, Let's at least acknowledge that USA Today
put out a pretty decent prediction as opposed to last year,
which I think last year was like they were messing
with us give Ravens Packers.
Speaker 3 (32:59):
That's believable, is there?
Speaker 9 (33:02):
This is the.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
Conversation for another day. But off the top of your
off the top of the dome right now, is there
a team you can ask me to freestyle?
Speaker 13 (33:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (33:10):
Yeah, right now you're like you're Harry Mack through off
the top of the dome, like Harry Mack. Yeah, we'll
I'll give you a word. There's a lot of pressure
stuff freestyle rapping right now? Is there a team that
didn't make it last year? Because we always joke and
you make fun of me because I overuse the word parody,
the parody in the league, and how every year half
the teams that made the playoffs the year before don't
(33:30):
make it. Who makes the playoffs this year that didn't
make it last year? I feel like you have an answer.
I think answered it around. I think the two teams
I feel like are back in the mix, forty nine
Ers and the Bengals. I think I think the narrative
that the Bengals starts slow will change this year. And
(33:51):
I think, and we already said, Joe Burrow taking snaps,
having a preseason, getting a head start, and watching that hell,
watching quarterback Cavino made me realize how many tough losses
it had been lost on me. Danny, how early in
the year, how many tough losses that Bengals came at,
real tough loss and they went either way and they
were fighting. They could very easily have been three and
(34:13):
oho instead of zero and three last year. I like
your answer, So I think I think the Bengals and
the forty nine ers who were just banged up. No McCaffrey,
no Kidd. There was a lot of injuries last year.
Trent Williams was banged up. So I think Niners in
a weak ass NFC West and the Bengals. Those are
the two teams that I feel like, are you know,
re emerging in the playoffs this year.
