Speaker 1 (00:00):
Stanny g executive producer of Covino and Rich. Thank you
for mo rocking with us. And if you missed anything
this past week, you're gonna love this because it's some
of the best moments from the past few days.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
And listen, man, you guys have revolutionized sports radio. Ours
starting the way he revolutionized radio. You're doing the same
thing in sports radio.

Speaker 3 (00:21):
That's your new open day.

Speaker 1 (00:22):
Yeah, we got to add this guy to our open
Somebody send a zel to that dude. Great, enjoy our
best of the week.

Speaker 4 (00:33):
I feel like certain people don't warrant a ball busting
that type of treatment. And I feel like Kirk Cousins
appears to be that guy. I don't feel like he's
the guy you mess with in that way. He seems
too likable, too kind, you know, too too much of
a man on a mission. Like he's just a good
all around dude. So why is Mat Crosby this think
you earn when you're a veteran, right when you're the

(00:54):
when you're the top dog. And Kirk Cousins has done
enough to be that top dog right Like we always
say when people to take those crappy tests around here
at iHeart or Fox like the hey fill out this
human resources survey or do you think Colin Cowhart does that?
Do you think Colin Coward sitting in his kitchen table
doing the HR test?

Speaker 5 (01:11):
My guess is no, he probably has an intern.

Speaker 1 (01:13):
I think Ryan Music does it for him.

Speaker 5 (01:15):
Yeah, exactly two weeks there going like I got a boss.
I wouldn't be surprised.

Speaker 4 (01:19):
But I'm saying and that's because, like it's deserved. I
don't think Colin should have to take the like the
Randa HR test. Kelly Coxson recently was saying that one
of the one of the most annoying things about her
NBC daytime show was that they still made her do
all that and she's like, he's.

Speaker 5 (01:35):
Serious, the host of her show.

Speaker 4 (01:38):
But I just think Kirk Cousins in the football world
shouldn't get the shove. I said to Cavino on the
drive in I was were chatting. I said, do you
think Fred Warner would tussle would Brock Purdy? Do you
think Micah Parsons would be tossing around Jordan Love? Do
you think any other big time defensive fiery guy would
be would be putting hands on their QB? No, I

(01:59):
don't think so I I think he's using his raiders veteranship.
Is that a word I just made that I'd go
with it, you know, And he's like, Yo, I'm the
I'm the Raider, I'm Max Crosby.

Speaker 5 (02:09):
I do what I want. Kirk Cousins, I like I
like that, Kirk Cousins, I like that.

Speaker 1 (02:12):
You like that he's fired. I like that he did
say this. Cousin said this after right before both of
them got suspended for the next practice. Cousin says he
doesn't know if he's ever played with a teammate who's
as impactful on defense as Max Crosby.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
Well, here's no one date. You know, he put hands
on Cousins. Cousins got back at him. They got into
a little tussle. Apparently, Apparently, Kubiak, you couldn't resist yourself.
Apparently anytime I say apparently, Richard, don't you think that.

Speaker 6 (02:40):
Little redheaded kid that was like, apparently, Grandpa, please the
lottery power ball?

Speaker 5 (02:49):
Apparently, way they could say thirty five?

Speaker 4 (02:52):
All the improvview gave was one hundred percent incorrect and inaccurate.

Speaker 5 (02:55):
Oh sorry, he plays a power ball, Grandpa? Please? I
love that is that he grew up he's edge sharing. Dude,
are you starting to kulkie beans before we got here?
Let me finish this all right.

Speaker 4 (03:09):
So apparently coach Clint Kubiak on Saturday, you know, I
guess what, had a talking to put him in suspension. Yeah, he.

Speaker 5 (03:21):
On time out.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
Both of them. Yeah, you're gonna go sit on that
chair in the corner for one practice and think about
what you did.

Speaker 5 (03:27):
Think about that.

Speaker 4 (03:27):
So he put the Dunce cap on him and they
sat in the corner for an entire practice just because
they went at it.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
So one of the beat writers also said there was
an ulterior motive that veterans needed a rest that day.

Speaker 5 (03:37):
Anymore, okay, and he used this as a way to
show or make an example of them, But really they
just had to sit out. Fine.

Speaker 4 (03:45):
But the question here is, in the words of John
Crease Suncay, John Crees, I like that.

Speaker 1 (03:51):
Do you like that?

Speaker 4 (03:52):
Or do you think this shows friction? So basically, do
you like the fire or is this friction for the team?

Speaker 5 (04:00):
Friction or fire? Is this friction or fire or maybe both?

Speaker 4 (04:04):
I mean it is both, But what do you get
off on more the fact that why is there friction
amongst the offense and defense here between Cousins and Crosby.

Speaker 5 (04:14):
Why that friction.

Speaker 4 (04:15):
To start off the season or do you say, oh man,
they're pumped up.

Speaker 1 (04:19):
Have you seen the first episode of Hard Knocks every
season with the Seahawks. No, Actually, Danny going on to
fin of friction going on between the offense and the
and the defense.

Speaker 5 (04:28):
Yeah, but this is cut.

Speaker 4 (04:29):
Like I said, I don't believe Cousins is the type
of guy that warrants that behavior.

Speaker 5 (04:33):
He's Cousins.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
I don't think it matters. But mister Rogers, it could
be Tom freaking Brady back there taking the But Max Crosby,
he's one of those guys where once he's once you
let him go, he's gone. Like there's no there's no
controlling him. Every past coaches have had to pull him
aside and say, dude, you're making the rest of the
team look bad.

Speaker 4 (04:55):
Slow down, Danny. Every off season at camp there's altercations.
Remember year, like there was some youngster that was tussling
with Kelsey and this, you know, and Kelsey is such
not only a big name in football, but just in
the pop culture world.

Speaker 5 (05:07):
There's like, can you believe that rookie?

Speaker 4 (05:08):
Uh, you know, some rando practice squad guy was tussling
with Kelsey.

Speaker 5 (05:12):
I get it. There's guys this fire people trying to
find jobs. Fifty ye.

Speaker 4 (05:17):
Crosby reminds me of like he's some sort of Middle
Earth ogre or something like that on the field, like
Ogre from Revenge of the Nerds. Actually, like uh Frederick
Oger Pelawawski like, but he's winking on nerdy ass Kirk.

Speaker 1 (05:29):
Cousins in the moment, how is Crosby even How's Crosby
even doing any of this? The Ravens told us that
he wasn't ever gonna play again.

Speaker 4 (05:37):
How I think he's trying to assert his dominance here
as the guy.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
He got sure chip on his shoulder too because of
what happened with the ring.

Speaker 4 (05:45):
He's doing it with the wrong guy though. Let Cousins
show that he is leadership here. He's the quarterback all
right now, guys, Fox Sports Radio Nation, we post the question.

Speaker 5 (05:55):
It seems like Danny G likes it. It's his team.
Is this too much friction or fire to start the
season off?

Speaker 4 (06:01):
And as Danny G said, and I can't wait to
watch tonight Hard Knocks, there's always friction between the offense
and defense.

Speaker 5 (06:07):
Oh no, I'm gonna start tonight, Danny quarterback at one point,
then I do it back to school tonight. The Seahawks.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
The Seahawks, Sorry, sorry, Wes, I called him the Seahawks.
Their offense is on fire, and the defense is so frustrated,
and you see the tension, and so this is just
kind of a normal thing in practice. There's a microscope,
a magnifying glass, if you will, on these guys. Because

(06:35):
of what's going on with Fernando, you know, waiting in
the wings to play, and he got that chance Saturday
to have his reps with the One, and all of
a sudden, the Raider Beat riders were like, this is
the opportunity that Fernando needed, because he looked amazing Saturday
when he was running with the one. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:50):
But to me, that feels like conflict. Like I think
you try to do everything to boost the confidence of
a cousins in this situation. I mean, like not like
pick on him to the point where he has to
tell you to back off. I think maybe you're pulling
that fire out of Cousins and reminding him that you know,
well then you know you do that, you.

Speaker 5 (07:07):
Do like a Baker Mayfield.

Speaker 4 (07:08):
You get in his face and you smash helmets, and
you hit him on the pads and you push him
around a little bit. You don't like potentially hurt the
guy when he's throwing a football.

Speaker 1 (07:17):
Well, the week prior, you might have seen the viral
video going around of Cousins looking really slow in the
line of you know, when they were running from side
to side and everybody was getting on Cousins. So what
did he do the very next practice he was sprinting.
He was the first player to the other side during
this submierence.

Speaker 4 (07:34):
Some guys need that, and maybe just maybe there's people
thinking right now, like Cavi, you no, Rich, this is
like a little layout to the little baby beatches like
this is NFL football. This Why make sure Cosby's twenty
eight Kirk Cousins is thirty seven. It's called show that
guy a level of respect. Seriously, that's how I feel
about it. I know it's football, but this guy is
also your quarterback. You're putting him in a dude, what

(07:57):
if he hit his hand on his helmet or something
like that when he already said yo, chill, wow, this
is just practice.

Speaker 5 (08:02):
Cousins. Bob breaks a finger and now what.

Speaker 1 (08:04):
But I like the way Cousins responded. How would have
Gino Smith responded to this last offseason throwing punches? I
don't know you got of the face, So yeah, I
think I think Gino Smith would have just let it go.
But I like the fact that Cousins is now waking
all the way up. We know Max has no problems
with his motor. And there you got to think about it.

(08:26):
There's been a malaise with some of these Raider players
in the past, some bad draft picks, some bad free
agent signings, the team looking asleep with bad coaching. Now
you have Kobiyak in there. The team looks focused, Their
practices look much better, according to everybody that's been covering
the team this offseason. And so I like the fire
because if the team is that hungry right now, I

(08:49):
can't wait for the season to start.

Speaker 4 (08:50):
Malaise destrup the malaise a general vague feeling of this comfort, illness, fatigue,
and Uneasey you looked it up, Yeah, I was like,
is that something that put on I think something I
put on my stack.

Speaker 5 (09:01):
That word does have the malaise for the shriby Oh
sounds good with a galasee malaise, you know.

Speaker 4 (09:08):
Interestingly enough, Adam Schefter reported on us as well. I
mean everyone's reported on it, but saying how Cousins got
fired up. Of course they both got, you know, a
little slap on the rest, but you said it might
have been good the veterans again, frictionated dog. But as
Adam Schefter was saying, Kirk gets up, he's fired up,
and maybe you want that out of Kirk Cousins. So

(09:29):
we can't look at it like, you know, hands off
the veteran. Maybe maybe this is like Kirk Cousins is
the type of guy. Because if you're right, if he
said Max Crosby is the most intense guy played with.

Speaker 5 (09:40):
Why would Kirk Cousins not want that?

Speaker 4 (09:43):
Just maybe let lay Off tell you why, because maybe
he kind of Kirk Cousins is fully capable.

Speaker 5 (09:48):
Of hyping himself up. He's been in the league for
a long time.

Speaker 4 (09:51):
Again, I'm playing Devil's advocate here, Danny G's the Raiders fan.
He sees nothing but fire, not friction. And I even
know they were both in time out this. Some are
also speculating that this is a great This is a
great message for Fernando Mendoza, where Kirk Cousins also shows, Yo,
you don't as a quarterback, you don't take those type
of things like you fight back.

Speaker 5 (10:12):
That's cool. Don't be you know, I like that. Don't
be a little beta. You gotta get up there.

Speaker 4 (10:16):
You're the quarterbacks Superbird twenty four chiming in again. You
could join the live chat and watch the show live
at Covino and Rich FSR on YouTube. You can watch
it anytime.

Speaker 5 (10:25):
Go home.

Speaker 4 (10:26):
You know, if you're in traffic right now, you went
on check it out later. You want to see Pre
who's in the studio? Pre come here, Come here and
wave and say hi at Covino and Rich Fsruh, where
did the dirty bird go? He basically said, here he
is Superbird. Max Crosby thinks it's the Crosby Show.

Speaker 5 (10:43):
Is that good?

Speaker 1 (10:43):
Danny g But it's not the Crosby Show anymore. And
so what Rich was just saying about how other leaders
need to step up and make themselves seen on the team.
That's what Cousins was doing.

Speaker 4 (10:55):
Jones one ninety nine says, it's a nothing burger bro
And you know what, that's another interesting thing, Rich and I.
It's it's our job along with Danny G. Danny G
Gotta give them credit always comes up with, you know,
great discussions for us to tackle. You know, in our meetings.
Hey man, maybe we should talk about this. And you know,
there's not a whole lot going on right now. Rich
wants to talk about the w NBA later, so no, no,

(11:19):
it's going on on a slow news day, right. You know,
some things like this aren't blown out of proportion? Is
this one of those things?

Speaker 5 (11:26):
Well?

Speaker 4 (11:27):
Do you guys remember I took the bait on this.
I was like, I don't like that because I personally
don't like it. I wouldn't want to be treated that way.
Do you guys remember? I'm sure you do. It's more
rhetorical and if you don't, then go watch it. We
all remember Remember the Titans, one of the best football
movies of all time? Remember the Titans. You have to say,
do you remember remember the Titans? Or can you use

(11:47):
one remember? Do you remember the Titans?

Speaker 5 (11:50):
I think you could say that.

Speaker 4 (11:52):
Well, if you remember Julius and Bertier, remember the two
guys they were going at it.

Speaker 5 (11:57):
That team was in disarray, but they challenged each other.

Speaker 4 (12:00):
I know, it's a movie but if you don't think
that's reflective of how some clubhouses, some locker rooms get together,
Like sometimes you need that rich and I fight a lot,
but you need that friction and power and and I
don't know, I guess, I guess those vibes to challenge
each other. I mean, if if everything was all sunshine
and rain balls.

Speaker 5 (12:19):
All the time.

Speaker 4 (12:19):
Crosby said, all right, here's what if Crosby's like, I'm
just trying like a sparring partner, like a good sparring
partner is going to work the potential fighter right because
he's getting ready for the championship fight. What if Crosby's like, yo, man,
I'm just getting my quarterback ready, then then you look
at it that way. That's kind of a cool way
to look at How do you feel, like, why would
I hold back? I'm trying to get the offense ready.

Speaker 1 (12:41):
Man?

Speaker 5 (12:42):
In Major League Baseball? How do you feel? And because
I think this is.

Speaker 4 (12:46):
Similar even though it's gameplay versus you know, camp what
a what a star player doesn't run out a routine
play and an error happens and they would have been safe,
Like you know, let's say, uh, give me one of
your Yankees let's say John Carlow, I wan't to say
Trent Grisham, John Carlos, Slow's molasses anyway, Trank Grisham okay

(13:09):
rolls over a ground ball. He does the most lackluster,
jogged down the first but the second basement boots it,
and if he would have hustled a little bit, he
would have been safe.

Speaker 5 (13:20):
How do you feel about Aaron Boone being like you're
out and you're you're out feels like something jazz chishlm
might be if that happened, that would you be opposed
to Boone being like jazz You're out? No, No, I
would not be.

Speaker 4 (13:29):
You need to make that message, and maybe maybe Max
Crosby saying, like, listen, I'm setting the tone that if
we want to compete with the dynasty known as the Chiefs,
who are going to be back in action, Jim Harbaugh
and the Chargers and Denver who was one went away
from the Super Bowl last year, if we're gonna ever compete,
we can't just be soft. So Vince Garcia is saying

(13:51):
on our live chat again chop it up live at
Coven on rich FSR on YouTube. Crosby just trying to
will the Raiders to four wins this season, so he's
just trying, just trying to hype him. There's a big
difference between like two and four wins. Danny, and I
think he might have got it with with Max. I look,
I do get it. I just feel like Kirk Cousins

(14:12):
is not the type of guy that you you mess
with like that. I just think he's a sweet fella.
I know he's got a competitive spirit. I know he
has that fire too. I just don't feel like, yeah,
I feel like it's a mismatch. I Crosby's a wild
man and Cousins is. I know Danny's been making fun
of me because I have not been watching quarterback per
his request, but I did watch last season and one

(14:34):
of my memories Danny was Kirk Cousins.

Speaker 1 (14:37):
You're really gonna go back to the season before the
one you were supposed to watch.

Speaker 4 (14:41):
Only because I picture Kirk Cousins, and I know this
is a weird statement, but I picture him getting into
like the uh the bath, the cold bath picture. I
remember he had a shirt off and he was bruised everywhere,
and You're like, yeah, these quarterbacks take a beating.

Speaker 5 (14:55):
And I'm thinking to myself.

Speaker 4 (14:56):
Quarterbacks underneath those jerseys and shoulder pants, backs have bruises
and welts and everything. And they're taking ice bats, they're
going to get massages, they're getting acupunctured.

Speaker 5 (15:07):
How banged up Baker Mayfield.

Speaker 4 (15:09):
So danyjy when you see that, maybe the other argument
would be, like you, Max, you don't need to contribute
to that.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
But you know, the first one, the way I read it,
he pumped into him. He was trying to stop on
the play. It would have been a sack in a
real game. And then the second one, he hit his
throwing arm. It's not like he pile drived him into
the ground and hurt him and Cousins limbed off. Then
it would be a different conversation.

Speaker 4 (15:32):
You know what on a Cousin's shops at L L
Bean dude and tucks in his button downs, you know
what I mean?

Speaker 5 (15:36):
Like he's a nerdy guy. I like it. He gets
his haircuted a what is it?

Speaker 4 (15:41):
Good clips? Supercuts, supercuts, smart clips? Where does he go?

Speaker 5 (15:45):
What's someone my brother goes to some cheap ass place.
My brother gets my brother.

Speaker 4 (15:49):
My brother gets his haircut called the MVP clip, And
I'm like you I'm telling you right now that is
not an MVP haircut.

Speaker 1 (15:56):
All right?

Speaker 4 (15:56):
Well, hey again, the twenty eight year old Max Crosby
playing fire with fire, causing friction with the thirty seven
year old starting QB Kirk Cousins and the up and
that was Friday, yepday is they were putting time out
over the weekend. Does that equal friction or fire? Let
us know your thoughts and we still got trivia. Rich
is going to get controversial. He has a thought on

(16:17):
WNBA and more. Well, there's people that are now saying,
I'm going to be in the WNBA because I feel
like a woman being I'm.

Speaker 1 (16:26):
I feel like we might run out of time on
the show before Rich gets to that tape.

Speaker 4 (16:29):
Oh you know what, I'm gonna get to it next.
How about that, let's get controversial for all the sneaker
heads out there. Did you see Eminem's Encore air. Jordan
Fors are rumored to be released in twenty twenty seven,
So well, they just missed the bocause school starts this week.
You know what, gott to release them right now. Kiddo's
get ready for school such a big part of that

(16:50):
first day, first day, feel.

Speaker 1 (16:53):
You know what.

Speaker 4 (16:53):
We might talk about that because school starts this week.

Speaker 1 (16:56):
Some of the country is like, what are you talking about?
I know I'm going to start for us till next month.

Speaker 4 (17:00):
Well that's how we grew up like normal people on
the East Coast. But here in LA, you know, in
the land of confusion in LA, they start this week,
so we might talk them back to school antics.

Speaker 5 (17:10):
I dived back to school night tonight.

Speaker 4 (17:11):
I find out what class my kids in and then
they'll be the really happier said, depending on if their
kids their friends are in their class exactly.

Speaker 5 (17:18):
So we'll get to that.

Speaker 4 (17:19):
Showed time homes trivia, some prizes to give away and
more and your thoughts on Max Crosby and Kirk Cousins
keep them coming at covene on Rich at Fox Sports
Radio on social media. But Rich is about to talk NBA.
Actually WNBA, Well, it's you know, put aside the Kaitlin
Clark foul. The that was take it away because what's

(17:40):
the conspiracy. ESPN had a primetime game against at Liberty,
so like, why would they suspend Kaitlin Clark for that?

Speaker 5 (17:46):
There's so every headline about the WNBA Liberty Bibberty.

Speaker 4 (17:50):
Is laid is leyden with some type of controversy, and
you could argue this is good for the League's no
one ever talked about him ever before, and then the
last couple of years, a lot of talk. You could
say it's all drama, but it's not. How Like so
many things get by in twenty twenty six, dramatic headlines.

Speaker 5 (18:06):
Controversy. Yeah, it's been that way well over the last
couple days. I want to let this digest the second.

Speaker 4 (18:10):
Did you see that Enis Kanter and Royce White, two
former NBA players and I'm sure more to come, have
declared themselves eligible for the WNBA Draft with there being
no true verbiage in the WNBA contract as it said.
According to Commissioner Kathy Engelbert, when she's not dissing Dan

(18:33):
Patrick and standing him up, she said, our player eligibility rules,
unlike the eligibility rules of some other leagues, are governing
bodies and are collectively bargained. Lastly, preserving the integrity of
our game is ensuring fair competition and will always remain
the highest priority. So I just think what this does

(18:53):
is I think these guys are boneheads. They're announcing their
eligibility based on the verbage that's required by the w NBA.
Now saying like, yeah, well, according to your rules, we
should be allowed to play, so we're ready to join
the league. Now you might think Enis Kanter and Royce
White are two dopes, two morons. I mean publicity stunt, yes,

(19:16):
a foolish thing to do.

Speaker 5 (19:19):
Yes.

Speaker 4 (19:19):
But what they're doing, though, is they're pressing buttons and
forcing the hand of the WNBA to be very clear
on a question that so many people in the world
of trans athletes in sports don't want to answer. And
now that's what defines a man or a woman in sports,
because you can't just subjectively be like Enis Kanter, you're

(19:41):
a jo, You're a piece of garbage trying to do
what do you try to accomplish? Because while that might
be true, according to the way things look right now,
he could very well say well, I feel like I identify
as a woman, and that's good enough according according to
the current verbiage. So what it's doing is it's really
Now I'll tell you what it's doing. I have written down. Oh,

(20:01):
you are to tell me it is exactly what it's doing.
It's proving a valid point and it's protecting women, but
in the worst and probably most annoying way possible. Yeah,
because you know they're just being jerks about it, and
they're being facetious.

Speaker 5 (20:13):
I don't think anyone wants to see.

Speaker 4 (20:15):
I mean maybe maybe one da because would be funny
to see, but no one really thinks Enus Kanter and
Royce White two dopes, should be in the w n
b A.

Speaker 5 (20:25):
Right. Do you think that you would?

Speaker 1 (20:26):
I would just once it was game to prove a point,
just for it make me laugh, be hilarious.

Speaker 4 (20:34):
But I do wonder though, I mean low and crowns like,
don't come to me, don't come to me. Don't come
to me, Isaac. Don't you think what they're doing?

Speaker 5 (20:44):
Wait?

Speaker 7 (20:45):
Wait, you have just basically confirmed that you can read
my mind.

Speaker 5 (20:54):
Was sipping his drink for a long time.

Speaker 3 (20:58):
It's been empty for an hour.

Speaker 4 (20:59):
I could feel like like you know, when you're nervous
at a cocktail party and you keep biting on the
ice you have left.

Speaker 7 (21:04):
In your room and get invited to cocktail parties, meaning
the things that you have read from my mind previously,
you have so much blackmail material.

Speaker 3 (21:15):
Oh my gosh.

Speaker 4 (21:17):
But uh again, it's not a ConTroll controversial thought to
think that. Now the w n b A needs to
somehow address this. Who's going to be happy with the statement?
But Danny g who's like bradiders Man, just talk readers.

Speaker 5 (21:30):
Would you? I'm glad you read mine too.

Speaker 1 (21:33):
Yeah, because I thought you were going to go with
the white privileged story over the weekend.

Speaker 4 (21:37):
That to me is just ridiculous. And I don't think
I think that's crazy in itself as well, but it's
ridiculous because rich his whole life is white prison. That's
why true. Yeah, now look, you got real quiet. Thought
about it for a second.

Speaker 5 (21:54):
I was going to make a joke that you're my Guermo,
but I thought that would be inappropriate. You know, I
know everyone picks I am. I don't know.

Speaker 4 (22:01):
That's with the stars. I continue, no, but INA's cancer.
I think we could all agree that. Like in sentiment,
it's like, oh, that's funny, but like he's really not
gonna do that.

Speaker 5 (22:11):
That would be everything about it. It just makes it like,
what are you a jerk?

Speaker 4 (22:15):
What do I get what you're trying to do, But
you're not really identifying as a woman. You are trying
to use the loose language in this contract, your point
trying to make their point, or anyone trying to make
us believe that a guy who's to be a man
could play with the women.

Speaker 1 (22:33):
Ra your hand, Raise your hand if you think the
w NBA commissioner right now is not up for this job.

Speaker 4 (22:38):
That's that's one the need they need new leadership. We
are Coveno and Rich Steve Covino with my slow Poke
Rodriguez shirt. Rich Davis, It's an underrated, under understated character

(22:59):
from back in the day. Yeah, this was a great
Looney Tunes character. I bought this shirt and protest. Remember
they were trying to cancel them years ago, So this
shirt's a few years old because he almost got canceled
and I was like, no, on behalf of all the
Votos locos. We Supportez.

Speaker 8 (23:16):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (23:17):
So anyway, CNR on FSR with Danny g Sexy Ryan
and the Kron and thank you Fox Sports Radio Nation
for hanging out with us live from the Fox Sports
Radio studio. If you miss any of today's show, any
show ever, catch the podcast and Danny ge even puts
not only a best of every day, a best of
the week on Saturday. So search Covino and Rich wherever
you get your podcasts, and we're also streaming live, so,

(23:39):
like I said, we're on YouTube now, you could watch
the show anytime. And by the way, just a reminder,
we talked about the Cardinals, and I think two wins
will be where we sit at.

Speaker 1 (23:50):
Yeah, you're I feel like you're wrong because you're going
down their schedule saying lost lost, lost, lost, which is
just being cute.

Speaker 4 (24:01):
They are underdogs in all seventeen games, and Danny, no.

Speaker 5 (24:04):
I haven't looked up.

Speaker 1 (24:05):
I had to look this up though, Rich. How many
upsets do we average per week in the NFL during
the regular season last year.

Speaker 4 (24:12):
Where the underdog beats the favorite in Vegas each week?
Remember when Danny G's Raiders beat the Patriots to start
the season.

Speaker 5 (24:19):
You don't think there's a few of those.

Speaker 4 (24:21):
So I the only winnable games they have are against
like the Raiders, Jets, Saints, like they play. The Cardinals
played their tough division, and then all their AFC games
a lot of them come out of the AFC West.

Speaker 5 (24:34):
So they have to play there.

Speaker 1 (24:37):
Even the best teams, even the best teams in the NFL,
have a clunker during the regular season. Two wins and
I lose to one of those types of teams like
the Cardinals.

Speaker 4 (24:45):
Two wins if you're lucky, Hey, maybe Richard right now?
The other team, Danny Ryan, dare I schedule watch one
more second?

Speaker 5 (24:51):
Do you mind? Let's do it? I mean I want
to go to the NFC North, shall we? Rich loves
to look at the sketch you will get schedule watch it.
Eight and a half wins? Don't you think once an
hour is enough?

Speaker 4 (25:05):
Eight and a half the Vikings, Because I figure if
we're going to talk about these two teams, Vikings and Cardinals,
where they sit after the Calamaria. Yeah, Kyler Murray is
eight quarterback of the Vikings as of today. Yeah, eight
and a half wins, which is I mean exactly five hundred.
They're predicted are the quintessential five hundred team in the
NFL eight and a half? Do you think they'll go
nine and eight or eight to nine like they are

(25:26):
predicted to be five hundred on the dot. So you
tell me over under, if you want to start with
the regular season, you got to tell me do you
think the Vikings match up against their division?

Speaker 9 (25:36):
Like?

Speaker 5 (25:36):
All right, they play the Packers in Minnesota.

Speaker 1 (25:41):
That's one to me always a slug.

Speaker 4 (25:43):
You go to you go to Chicago, oh and two,
you play the you play the Bucks. What do you
say there, your boy Baker? I always give Baker the
edge in the beginning of the season. Oh and three,
Now he'll be all banged.

Speaker 5 (25:55):
Dolphins.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
You're at least one in two.

Speaker 5 (25:57):
There I wanted to and then you go the Dolphins
too and two.

Speaker 1 (26:00):
Yeah, that's that's more reasonable.

Speaker 4 (26:01):
Okay, Saints three and two, Colts four and two, three
and three. Are you going, well, we'll go three and three,
all right, Lions three and four, Bills, three and five, Packers,
I'm gonna say you split. So now I'm going four
and five, Niners four and six, Panthers five and six,

(26:22):
Patriots five and seven, Lions Again, you're gonna.

Speaker 5 (26:26):
Split with them?

Speaker 4 (26:26):
Maybe say split six and seven, Commanders seven and seven,
Jets eight and seven, Bears eight and eight, and oh
my god, what do we miss We missed one? So
they are essentially a five hundred team. I just fouled
the way with the seventeenth game win. But they are,
my goodness, the definition of five hundred. Now I have
to figure out where this schedule are you reading? I

(26:47):
don't know what game you missed? But the Bears were
on there twice too. I think we were a little
generous too, kind of schedule watching sort of. We got
more Next where you can talk some NBA and I
gotta figure out what mystery game I missed. More Coveno
and Rich next right here on Fox Sports Radio and
Action Packed Tuesday.

Speaker 5 (27:02):
Let's go.

Speaker 4 (27:06):
Fox Sports Radio on a Taco Tuesday. We're just guessing,
but the most fun educated way you try.

Speaker 5 (27:13):
You know, you do, you do your homework.

Speaker 1 (27:14):
But and if Rich didn't get to your favorite team yet,
don't worry. It'll be coming up and he'll be wrong
about their schedule.

Speaker 5 (27:20):
No doubt for sure. Dan.

Speaker 4 (27:21):
Waitestically enough, Cavino's like, you know, what Vegas does is
just really a more calculated, ai educated version of.

Speaker 5 (27:29):
What we just did. Yeah, I mean, because and they're
usually pretty accurate.

Speaker 4 (27:33):
You look, you look at a schedule, and you're really
just taking guesses based on little glimpses of what you're seeing,
based on the past as well, and you know the
vibe of the teams, right and how good they're going
to be, and some will surprise you and some won't.
But you got a pretty decent understand you know what
the best part of preseason football is, well, he knowing
that the real season for everybody. Yeah, the real season's
coming soon to start and hope for all. And it

(27:55):
was months and months for all your banged up players
to get healthy, so no one's really deal with the
injury U quite yet, knock on woods. So you're sort
of like you have this weird like optimistic cool hope. Yeah,
like that's the start of everything, like you know, because
you remember the teams that were three and fourteen and
made the playoffs the next year, or the teams that
were in like the AFC or NFC championship and divisional

(28:17):
round that poop the bed the next year and all of.

Speaker 5 (28:19):
A sudden they stink, so that the fun is like
no one.

Speaker 4 (28:22):
Knows, not called pooping the bed. It's called a grumpy
grumpy Remember the Johnny Depp story?

Speaker 5 (28:28):
Do you remember the John X story? Hey?

Speaker 4 (28:29):
You know what else is a common theme this preseason,
this training camp. We see it on Hard Knocks, and
I'm so excited for episode two tonight is how the
at practice, how the offense is fighting with the defense.
We talked about the Chiefs today talking about the Raiders
and Max Crosby and Cousins and yeah, we get it.
You know, tension is high. You have a lot to prove.

(28:50):
But man, they were going at it in Seattle. So
we tried to decide yesterday is that friction or fire?
Is that the fire you want to see or is
that the free that you don't want?

Speaker 5 (29:01):
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (29:01):
Yesterday, you know, after we were on you know, we
got the odd couple and I was talking to Ephraim. Yeah,
he said, you don't want that, and he's stay away
from the quarter.

Speaker 5 (29:10):
He's like, you know, he.

Speaker 4 (29:11):
Comes from an offensive lineman background, and he's like, yo,
that happens in camp amongst your own team.

Speaker 5 (29:16):
He goes.

Speaker 4 (29:16):
Then all of a sudden, the offensive line is strategizing,
you know, we got to get him back. And then
the defense is thinking that now you're fighting with your
own team, and he's like, that's a no, no, like goes.
Max Crosby is intense, but you don't go pushing around
Kirk Cousins. It's funny too, because what they're preaching, and
we're talking about a championship caliber team, the Seahawks on
hard knocks is what makes a team a championship team

(29:37):
is the camaraderie is the trust that they have in
each other right, and the love and family that they
create as an organization. Yet they're at each other's throat. Man,
it's been a common theme. Or maybe or maybe all
of a sudden, the narrative comes out that Kirk Cousins
and Max Crosby are now like best friends, and that
was like a moment of maybe remember.

Speaker 1 (29:55):
Did hug it out? And the one the one thing
I would say about that, like because it kind of
reminds me of Rudy.

Speaker 4 (30:01):
What if it's remember the Titans moment where all of
a sudden, now everyone loves the.

Speaker 1 (30:04):
Yeah, that was your example yesterday, But remember when Rudy
was going too hard in practice and the big lineman
shoved him down and he's like, I'm just trying to
help you prepare for what was a purdue or something.
That's kind of what it's like. I mean, their teammates
at the end of the day.

Speaker 4 (30:18):
So Rennick said Crosby simply bullying Cousins. But you see
it firsthand on Hard Knocks, And I'm excited for episode two.
So hey, if we didn't do our job getting you ready,
you'll enjoy that tonight on HBO Max. Does everyone have
one player on their team that, whether it's a rookie
or a new acquisition that you're like, Oh, I can't

(30:39):
wait to see.

Speaker 5 (30:40):
If this is a nothing burger or a big impact player. Yeah,
who's that?

Speaker 4 (30:44):
Feur Raiders Dan? I mean, obviously mendoz in the obvious.
Is there any like maybe maybe how your offense runs
with a new Wells Ghenti has a different shit in
like better shape too this year.

Speaker 1 (30:55):
You know, they're the linebackers. Everybody's making noise about Nakobe
Dean and he's the new leader of the defense in
the middle of the field. That's going to be fun
to watch. And then one draft pick, Hezekaiah Masses. They
say that this kid, he's got a cow. He's been
turning heads at camp. So pay attention to that name.

Speaker 4 (31:13):
Cavino, you were saying on Hard Knocks as a receiver
a player on the Sea Ice, Yeah, he's this quick
running back that they're using like a receiver's just so far. Again,
in practice, it's all different. And they said it a
million times on the show, and that's just how football is.
Everything's different when you put the pads on and you
really start hitting, so you never you never know how
that translates moving forward. Is it just my forty nine
ers algorithm or Yo Kron Danny. Guys, you guys seen

(31:36):
any buzz that Stribbling might be the best wide receiver
on the field. That's something like forty nine ers buzz
that he's playing out of his mind, you know, third
third round pick. Remember people thought, oh, the Niners got
him too soon, or other people were saying, like he's
like underrated, like one of the best receivers in the
draft out of old miss.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
I love his first name, Dejan Is that how you
say it has got a z in it? I think DeShawn.

Speaker 5 (32:01):
Like a like a mustard. I think it's great.

Speaker 4 (32:05):
But let me tell you it's it's really fun when
you see those young players and you're like, again, the
season could start. It's like one catcher nine yards and
you that was nothing.

Speaker 5 (32:15):
Or some young kid could light it up.

Speaker 4 (32:17):
And that's just a whole other layer of what makes
the NFL so fun because every year there's gonna be
someone that disappoints in, someone that over over you know,
overdoes it. But look out tonight. Jadarian Price is the
dude on the Seahawks that they're hyping up a lot.
All right, so I'm Cavino. That is Rich Davis, Danny

(32:37):
g the Raiders fan. We got sixty Ryan on the
ones and twos Big Poppy Stop and buy in a
few minutes. But we made several references toward it, so
we got to bring it up and address it. NBA,
are you ready for that? I thought maybe the I
thought Bogsy. Oh you know, go to Boggsy. I mean,
if you want to want it like a quick hit, because.

Speaker 1 (32:54):
You could get the NBA schedule after Poppy Trip.

Speaker 5 (32:57):
Oh yeah, yeah, because we got to get ready for
Big Poppy Boxy. Huh.

Speaker 4 (33:01):
This is so wild. We already said or one out
for photoshop. Right, it's done. No one says, oh, it's
got to be photoshop. You say that's got to be ai.

Speaker 1 (33:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (33:10):
It's like when people you when we'd always say like, oh,
did you tape it? No one's taping anything. You recorded it.
I saw this yesterday. I immediately put it on our
group chaint. I said, if this is real, we got
to talk about it. Since then, I've seen it everywhere.
My friends have been sending it to.

Speaker 5 (33:23):
Me, and so either we're all dummies or it's real.

Speaker 4 (33:26):
As a guy that can't stop talking about peptides, Rich Davis,
I'm nervous to do it, but I feel like I
want to get on a stack. I feel like I
want to get into the pep tide.

Speaker 1 (33:36):
This picture checked out, by the way, Chad Gpt says,
it's very much real.

Speaker 4 (33:40):
Rich Davis thinks he's Daddy Stacks. Wade Box himself posted this,
so that's why I was like, there's got to be
truth to this, and he says.

Speaker 5 (33:48):
Just another great day on the water.

Speaker 4 (33:51):
But he's doing what our producer spot does, like he's
using every opportunity to flex, like no one's noticing him fishing,
He's clearly flexing on social media.

Speaker 5 (34:00):
Looks like a buddy, But you're like, what the hell
is this?

Speaker 4 (34:03):
By the way, I'm gonna what's your guests on Wade
Box age Wade bog Sum Right now, let's say in
the eighties.

Speaker 5 (34:09):
He was riding a horse in ninety six with the Yankees.

Speaker 4 (34:12):
Sixty ninety one years, I mean he's got to be
almost seventy. Wade Box sixty eight years, nineteen fifty.

Speaker 1 (34:19):
He just recently beat prostate cancer.

Speaker 4 (34:21):
Yeah, I recall, and Rich mentioned it before he got
He's infamous for that hair transplant, so you know he
cares about how he looks.

Speaker 5 (34:28):
He's trying to get back on the health track.

Speaker 4 (34:31):
He has to be on something, because if this picture's real,
the dude is more shredded than any youngster you know
in your life. Right now, this guy looks ripped and
he's on something. And nowadays you can't have a conversation
without one of your buddy's talking about peptides, whatever GLP
he's on. And you got to imagine Bogs is on something.

(34:52):
And I said this to Rich today. Okay, Rich keeps
talking about all his buddies that are on this and
that and this stack and Wolverine, this that and whatever. Right,
I said, yeah, that's great, and all, what are they
gonna do trade their head out for another head because
you're still got an old guy head. I'm sorry, and wait,
you need to be wed. And I said this before
I even saw the Wade Box thing. We still got

(35:12):
an old guy head, respectfully, so he's a headship. But
what I'm saying is you don't need to be chiseled
and ripped like Wade Bogs. But I was saying, if
you are into that peptide nad plus world.

Speaker 5 (35:26):
Now he's got to be people. People.

Speaker 4 (35:28):
There's ways to be thin and you know, ways to
enhance your workout. Nothing's FDA approved, but everyone's doing it.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
Hey.

Speaker 4 (35:36):
By the way, I'm just saying I don't want this
to be misconstrued in anyway. Congratulate dude.

Speaker 5 (35:40):
Looks good, right, Yeah, we want you to know like
this is coming from a place of love because and shock,
because he saw this and you're like, what the hell
is going on here? Weight Box is shredded? Is that real?

Speaker 4 (35:54):
Because his head does a giant compared to his ripped torso.

Speaker 1 (35:58):
He announced he was cancer free in February seven, twenty
twenty five.

Speaker 5 (36:02):
Yeah, that congratulations to him.

Speaker 1 (36:03):
There.

Speaker 5 (36:04):
Do you guys know the best Wade Box story?

Speaker 1 (36:07):
Which one?

Speaker 5 (36:08):
There's a few. Give me the one eighty three beers
on that side of you. You were gonna go there
again and not none of that. There's a better transplant.
There's a better Wade Bog story. Body by Bogs Baseball
Hall of Famer Wade Bogs. I bet you the Koran
doesn't even know this. I don't out there, you know,
who one of his best you know who, one of
his best friends used to be mister Perfect Christ Perfect.

Speaker 4 (36:31):
And there's an amazing story where while deer hunting in Iowa, Oh,
the one day I was Sam's not here, I was
Sam's trying, like I got the location.

Speaker 5 (36:41):
They were tried. There's a big deer problem in Iowa.

Speaker 4 (36:44):
In Iowa, while deer hunting in Iowa, Wade Bogs grabbed
a rotted tree branch to cross a barbed wire fence.
The branch broke and it left Bogs tangled and severely
cut from his knee to his ankle kurent headache. The
late great Mister Perfect, who was a dear friend of

(37:09):
Wade Boggs, carried him roughly three miles dear friend three
miles back to the truck to get emergency medical treatment.
And Boggs frequently refers to Kurt Henning as his guardian
angel up in heaven and that saved his life once
so old school wrestler who died. Mister Perfect and Wade

(37:30):
Bogs were best bros. They would hunt and fish and
outdoorsy men together. And uh, as you speak about Wade
Boggs story that I was facing Barry mister perfect three miles.
Based on that fant Wade Bogs goes hunting out and
carries all the deer on his shoulders.

Speaker 5 (37:46):
For real, Come on, guys, that's nuts. I got sixty years.

Speaker 4 (37:51):
Old, and in honor of mister Perfect, Wade Bogs now
spits out his gum every time and slaps it with
his hands.

Speaker 5 (37:55):
Hold on, I got you know what.

Speaker 4 (37:56):
That's probably why he didn't show up to Yankees Old
Timer's Day this weekend, because you're like, oh, I'm not
sh I look nothing like these old farts on the
field right now. Wait, he's ripped four hundred feet down
the line. He's like, yeah, I'm not hanging out with
these guys. Are an all fat and dumping those pinstripes.

Speaker 5 (38:10):
I'm ripped.

Speaker 1 (38:11):
Can I share a couple of the comments underneath this
photo that he posted.

Speaker 4 (38:15):
It's just nuts what today's older guy is capable of.

Speaker 1 (38:19):
JW Adventure says. Dodgers just signed sixty eight year old
Wade Box to a four year, one hundred and eighty
million dollar deal after seeing this picture. Two million a
year now. The other one hundred and seventy two million
deferred until twenty forty seven.

Speaker 5 (38:33):
Fun I'm a Dodgers fan. That's funny, said again too.

live stream right now. Thank you, Spotty. Our producer Elijah's

almost doesn't look real, especially since the head doesn't really
match up.

Speaker 1 (39:32):
It's and rich FSR by the way, Coveno and Rich
FSR on YouTube.

Speaker 4 (39:37):
It's really great man, thanks for all the feedback. But
it's gone viral since I saw it early yesterday and
it's everywhere as of today. But you know what I'm saying,
steroids that again sometimes yeah, you know, wasn't stallone a
big proponent of HGH to prevent cancers and things like
that body stops producing?

Speaker 5 (39:58):
On a serious tip, how people do you know?

Speaker 4 (40:00):
Maybe it's just my circle of people, but do you
guys not have friends, relatives, people you deal with that
are always talking about peptides and NAD plus and supplements
and oh they got an NAD drip.

Speaker 5 (40:12):
They're feeling youthful.

Speaker 4 (40:14):
A couple of my buddies I play softball with, or
you know, friends are all about like, yeah, man, you
got to take whatever stack and Retta is apparently some
like appetitesup President. It's not quite o zempic, but you
get a little more ripped. But these are not to
be done alone. Could you know they're to be done
like in supplement with your workout. They're not approved, but

(40:35):
no one's saying they're not gonna I don't know what
are your thoughts on the box side.

Speaker 5 (40:38):
That's good stuff. I just started taking it. I feel fantastic.
What do you yeah, what are you taking? O epic?
I'm telling you.

Speaker 4 (40:47):
People are saying, of course, as are oh this person
has O zepic face of this, but they're saying, there's
a lot of there's studies that are showing not all studies,
that there's other great health benefits.

Speaker 5 (40:57):
From stuff like that. So life's risk interesting.

Speaker 4 (41:00):
I would love to fast forward twenty years and see
what the study show meaning. Are we gonna all look
back and be like man, we should have all been
on this stuff?

Speaker 5 (41:08):
Or are we be like man? That's why Ryan looks
the way it does. I would be so cut. Wait,
box cut, Wade box cut.

Speaker 4 (41:15):
Here's me fishing with Wade, WBC champion Wade box cut.

The skin from your chin is also going to be
dragging on the floor though, right, yeah.

Speaker 4 (41:23):

Kurt Hennache.

Speaker 4 (41:59):
And if you mean it was BFFs with Wade Bossy,
if you missed our body by Bogs conversations to be
getting in the ring right now, if Pennig was still around, dude,
my goodness, Yeah, he's looking great.

Speaker 5 (42:10):
Hopefully you're having a Wade Boggs type of way. Let's
say it's inspiring.

Speaker 4 (42:13):
I just hit a milestone birthday, right and I'm thinking
to myself, if.

Speaker 5 (42:17):
Bogs could look like that, it's sixty eight.

Speaker 4 (42:20):
Yeah, no, his head looks out of proportion, even though
he has like a giant head with a ripped body.

Speaker 5 (42:25):

story about the documentary. I love Poppy. Get this. We've
all heard of a Rawlings, Spalding.

Speaker 4 (50:45):
These are all obviously names of men that were behind
the og baseball gloves. Spalding had such a great reputation
as an athlete and a good man. He was the
first person to wear a glove without shame. Before that,
if you wore a glove, you're considered like some time
of sissy or within you wearing a glove use your
bare hands. And Spalding, because he was so respected when

(51:08):
he wore a glove, people are like, wow, I mean
it's Spalding. He wore a glove and then would go
on to design bigger gloves and then Rawlings was the
first person to connect the fingers.

Speaker 5 (51:17):
With webbing, and you know, get out.

Speaker 3 (51:19):
Of here, go buy this story.

Speaker 4 (51:22):
Hey, sorry, big Poppy, I gotta go home now.

Speaker 5 (51:26):
Okay, Hey you.

Speaker 1 (51:27):

Hey, sexy dying, go to see your man. Hey, big Poppy.
By the way, Isaac, thank you for showing interest in
my Spalding story.

Speaker 3 (51:46):
That's a good It's a legitimately good story.

Speaker 5 (51:49):
The fact that Spalding, hey rich he was.

Speaker 4 (51:51):
He was no whine because Spalding and he was a
pimp spoiled's a great story. He had a reputation. So
it's like, you know, in the cool kidding school, dares
to be different, he wears something a little different and
no one's gonna make fun. No one's gonna make fun
of that guy. No one made fun of spald him
because he was the g Yes. Spalding was like, I'm
gonna wear a glove what and everyone in the eighteen
hundreds is like, well, I get well, see, I guess

(52:11):
if he was one, I could do one too right,
and then that made it okay? And then rawlings and
did you know this other fun fact? This is a
great documentary. I still don't know where it was.

Speaker 1 (52:19):
You're not done yet, g You're gonna love this.

Speaker 5 (52:22):
Why do you think big probably left there was?

Speaker 4 (52:24):
You know that all these different leagues use different sized baseballs,
different materials, different weights and everything until one company, and
it might have been wronging. I gotta look up who
exactly was there was a uniform baseball. But for the
early days of baseball, whatever stadium or field you played at,
whatever field or league you played in, it was a
different baseball. Maybe you guys need to watch a little

(52:45):
more history channel. Let's go to Iowa for an update.
I'm gonna look this up though.

Speaker 1 (52:48):
You were You need to watch Quarterback on that What
up the crown?

Speaker 3 (52:53):
Gum it up? Next on Coveno at A Rich.

Speaker 7 (52:58):
Rich breaks down the history of the on deck circle donuts.

Speaker 5 (53:03):
Oh can I tell you this? I play? You know
if you ever play.

Speaker 4 (53:08):
First base, if you ever play first base, you do
realize that you don't get the throw around in the
infield you know why that is, Isaac. Let's say there's
an out, how did they toss it around? Usually third base, second,
short back to the pitcher, or could be shortstop, second,
third pitcher, depending on how you Toon's rund.

Speaker 5 (53:26):
Why do they leave out the first base?

Speaker 3 (53:29):
Find out?

Speaker 4 (53:30):
Find out after Isaac's update.

Speaker 7 (53:33):
Then coming up tomorrow, Rench will break down the eighteen
ninety nine Cleveland Spiders.

Speaker 5 (53:40):
What you got? I love?

Speaker 3 (53:42):
All right, I'll.

Speaker 5 (53:45):
Tell you now.

Speaker 4 (53:45):
I just I was lou Gary, Isaac lou Gary. When
lou was starting to get ill, when Lou Garrick started
to get ill. As a respect, the Yankees were like,
you don't need to throw to him every time you're
on the infield's and then.

Speaker 7 (53:58):
That's actually a legitimately cool story. And so they did
that literally in lou.

Speaker 4 (54:03):
In lou In Lou of lou and then other teams
followed suit in honor of Lou Garrick. So now you know,
like one hundred years later, when people are throwing the
ball around the infield, you wonder, what.

Speaker 5 (54:12):
Is the first baseman not get the ball? Respect, but
you know.

Speaker 4 (54:15):
Why they throw it to third first because weight Box said, so.

Speaker 3 (54:19):
Back you got it. He's the new he's.

Speaker 7 (54:24):
The new Chuck Norris, Well done, Cobe, And while Kyler

serve as the backup. Chicago Bears head coach Ben Jonson
announced newly signed safety Kobe Bryant expected him as four
to six months after undergoing knee surgery. Remember, they signed
him to a three year, forty million dollar deal after
he won a Super Bowl with the Seahawks last season.
In Major League Baseball, the Los Angeles Angels today fired

(54:51):
pitching coach Mike Maddox. NBA announced that the defending champion
New York Knicks will host Lebron James and the Sixers

six Ers will visit his former team, the Lakers on

hundred and thirty eight teams. Well, the Athletic just reported
that Amazon has removed Wow, how you have magazines back?

Danny Gee.

Speaker 12 (01:00:02):
I like it.

Speaker 5 (01:00:03):
You never think about doing ring announcing.

Speaker 1 (01:00:06):
For real serious.

Speaker 5 (01:00:07):
I feel like you could move over bombs.

Speaker 7 (01:00:10):
I actually was one of those ring card people with
the bathing suit of the high heels once I thought
her I was the fourth round first.

Speaker 1 (01:00:17):
Yeah, well it's a perfect tie into my first story.

Speaker 7 (01:00:22):
Here, guys, both boxers took a dive in the third round.

Speaker 1 (01:00:26):
Uh not pictures of Iloh, thank goodness. But Elijah's about
to put up some picks on our YouTube channel of
SI swimsuit model and TV personality Brooks Nader did you
guys see this last She's making headlines after being photographed
going topless during a family yacht vacation in Italy. The
twenty nine year old relaxed aboard a private yacht. It's
like all of our vacation.

Speaker 5 (01:00:46):
I mean, how private of zis? Is she any relation
to Ralph Nader?

Speaker 4 (01:00:50):
By the way, She's only wearing bikini bottoms in this
photo while spending time with her parents and.

Speaker 1 (01:00:59):
Sister, who seemed completely unfazed by this. The photos and
video quickly sparked online conversation because of the family setting,
but those close to Nators suggest that her relatives were
comfortable and supportive. It's interesting because her upbringing, she says,
was in a very conservative Christian household in Louisiana, where
she said even bikinis were discouraged. Boy, so, guys, flotation

(01:01:23):
devices in front of family mid week or major?

Speaker 4 (01:01:27):
I have to go week week well, in front of family.
You're weirdo in front of family? You pervert's yes, that's on.
I don't care how you trying to normalize that. I'm
not rocking the uh banana in front of the parents ever,
and I will never expect like my sisters to be

(01:01:49):
topless in front of my dad to get out of here. Bro,
you're out of your mind, especially coming from my family's
ultra conservative.

Speaker 5 (01:01:56):
And I don't mean politically, I mean in that way,
like cheeks are not out in front of my mom.
You're out of your mind. No way.

Speaker 4 (01:02:03):
Well, yes, that's that's why it's a story that I'd say,
that's well, it's a major story.

Speaker 5 (01:02:09):
But I think it's weak to do that in front
of your family.

Speaker 1 (01:02:11):
Rich.

Speaker 5 (01:02:11):
But what's the new show? She's on the reboot?

Speaker 4 (01:02:14):
Oh uh, By the way, Danny J I gotta see
this for the record. I'm I'm not complaining, I'm just
saying in front of your family, right, I hear?

Speaker 5 (01:02:23):
What was that that?

Speaker 12 (01:02:25):
Oh?

Speaker 5 (01:02:26):
I will bay, Well, yeah, I will watch. I'm watching.

Speaker 4 (01:02:28):
I'm watching right now. By the way, Brooks Nader gorgeous.
I'm I'm a fan. Some people aren't more naked families
than others. Listen, but she's not.

Speaker 5 (01:02:36):
Yeah, but but clearly she's comfortable around her dad.

Speaker 1 (01:02:39):
It's awkward.

Speaker 5 (01:02:40):
Listen.

Speaker 4 (01:02:41):
In my many trips to Europe, and she's from Louisiana.
When you when you go overseas, people think it's weird
how Americans are very weird about nudity. I'm not saying
whip them out. I mean, I'm not bump fine with it,
but I get it. It's unconventional. I dropped my daughter
off at pool parties. I'm like, you better you, what
do you wearing right now?

Speaker 5 (01:03:01):
Get out of here.

Speaker 4 (01:03:02):
You don't want to see your kid's cheeks. Your goal
is that dad, is to keep their cheeks off the ground.
Keep them off only fans. You don't want them parading
around like that in front of you, because if they're
doing it in front of you, what are they doing
it around everyone else?

Speaker 5 (01:03:13):
Good luck finding a swimsuit for any young woman that
doesn't have cheek exposure. How did you score it, Rich,
I'm gonna say, I'm gonna say it's major.

Speaker 4 (01:03:20):
I mean, she's a big deal. You know, she's hot,
and she's got him out in front of her dad.
That is a little odd.

Speaker 1 (01:03:26):
But by the way, Manny Muno's in our YouTube channel.
He says, yeah, but is she holding her nose when
she jumps into the water.

Speaker 5 (01:03:32):
Dude, that would be worse anywhere.

Speaker 4 (01:03:34):
Tom Brady holding his nose is more offensive to me
when he jumps in the water than her with the
tap top. We got to make this clear. It's not
about the nudity. It's not she's a model. We get
all that she's traveling and doing her thing. It's about
in front of the family. Dude, that's crazy. Can you
know is more into in the nineties? Can you know
used to watch out girls go mild?

Speaker 1 (01:03:53):
Right, let's move on.

Speaker 5 (01:03:54):
You say that, you say that, now, wait till your
kid grows.

Speaker 1 (01:03:57):
Up a little bit. Let's jump into some NBA drama somehow.
This Kawhi Clippers thing is mostly flying under the radar.
You guys know about the alleged twenty million dollar aspiration
no show endorsement, of course, yeah, already wild. And now
Pablo Torre uncovers another alleged multimillion dollars side door payment
funneled through Daktronics. That's the company that built the Clippers

(01:04:18):
giant video board. Multiple high level execs are saying this
deal was one thousand percent away to circumvent the salary cap.
So that means two scandals of stalling Kawhi's trade to Toronto.
That's not happening right now. Steve Bomber's sweating because it
possible fines lost draft picks contract fallout. Here's the crazy part. Nobody,
not insiders, not reporters, not even the league office seems

(01:04:40):
to know where the NBA actually is with this thing.
It's the most Clippers drama ever, huge stakes money somehow,
most sports shows aren't even covering it Midweek or major,
very major, and its major.

Speaker 4 (01:04:53):
NBA does not want this to get out because then
what do they do. What happens if they find this
to be true? Then what happens moving forward?

Speaker 1 (01:04:59):
Right?

Speaker 4 (01:05:00):
And who knows what other secrets other teams are keeping?
And you gotta blame is it Uncle Dennis? Who's Uncle Dennis.
Uncle Dennis basically was like, yeah, we'll play for the
Clippers if you, you know, somehow get us this money.

Speaker 5 (01:05:12):
Make it happen. And they're like, well, what's he gonna
do for it? He's not gonna do anything for it.

Speaker 1 (01:05:17):
Story came out how he was trying to get some
sideways deals from Genie Buss in order to go to
the Lakers.

Speaker 4 (01:05:22):
Yeah, so you know, and he made it happen. I
guess props Uncle Dennis in a way I didn't. But
it's a wild, wild story. It's major, and if it
happens to be true, it's not good for the NBA.
I think it's major only because Uh, Pablo Tory just
sticks his nose in other people's business and listen, he's
making a great living doing it. He has become the investigator.

(01:05:43):
Belichick's thinking like, thank god, he's oto something else. But Uh,
Balmer and Adam Silver are like, yo, Pablo, chill the
f out because this guy.

Speaker 5 (01:05:53):
When when Pablo.

Speaker 4 (01:05:54):
Tory digs into something, he seems to be really effective
at getting the dirt.

Speaker 5 (01:05:58):
So this story is not going away.

Speaker 4 (01:06:00):
Whether or not the NBA wants it to go away,
maybe they address it and try to come up with
a deal now. But as of now, Danny do, it
looks like it's only getting worse.

Speaker 1 (01:06:07):
Yeah, Sticky, I think wild story too, all right. Something
you guys have joked about on our show for years
airport food prices. A recent Fox News lifestyle story about
twenty dollars airport avocado toast lit up social media because
travelers saw it as the perfect symbol of how out
of control airport food prices have become. The dish, advertised

(01:06:27):
as sprout bread, avocado, olive oil, bacon and crushed red pepper,
looks so underwhelming in the viral photo that celebrity chef
Andrew Gruel joked it appears that a preschooler made it,
fueling even more outrage. Commenters blasted not just the toast,
but the broader trend of airport's charging above restaurant level
prices for low quality food. The public has finally fed up,

(01:06:50):
you guys with paying premium prices for what many feel
is overpriced mediocre airport food midweek or major.

Speaker 5 (01:06:56):
Well, how much was there.

Speaker 1 (01:06:58):
Twenty bucks for that kindergar and toast?

Speaker 4 (01:07:00):
Twenty dollars? Well, you already said it. Prices have always
been ridiculous, you know, like fifteen dollars for a week
ass sandwich at the airport.

Speaker 5 (01:07:10):
But I can't say I understay. It's a mid story.
Here's why prices are always high.

Speaker 4 (01:07:16):
Avocado guacamole, it's always extra right, no matter where.

Speaker 5 (01:07:20):
You go, it's gonna be twenty five, Just letting you know,
extra quaca is gonna be extra three dollars.

Speaker 4 (01:07:25):
You have to realize that guacamole avocado is going.

Speaker 5 (01:07:28):
To be more. On top of this.

Speaker 1 (01:07:30):
Regular about a JFK Burger listed here for thirty eight dollars.

Speaker 4 (01:07:33):
Yeah, everywhere price is ridiculous, but I expect to pay.

Speaker 5 (01:07:36):
More when there's avocado or guacamole on Hey, they got
you by the huevos.

Speaker 4 (01:07:39):
As they say this is not major, I'm only saying
it's mid because listen, we travel.

Speaker 5 (01:07:44):
You travel, a lot of people travel, and you're used
to it.

Speaker 4 (01:07:46):
I remember, But there are times where, unless it's on
the company diamond, I'm like, yeah, whatever, I'll I will
be very angry.

Speaker 5 (01:07:52):
I saw it. I had a double check at LAX.

Speaker 4 (01:07:54):
I was in one of the terminals where a sausage,
egg and.

Speaker 5 (01:07:58):
Cheese breakfast burrito was over twenty dollars. And I'm like,
a breakfast burrito that you did literally they heat up
and give you a little wrapper, like twenty four dollars.
It is absurd. But Danny, what's your option at that point? Man?
You've got no option. It's like a stadium, right, It's
like you're in, you're you're you know, you screw all.

Speaker 1 (01:08:15):
Right, let's wrap with this. I'll make it quick. Your
favorite sport the WNBA.

Speaker 5 (01:08:19):
I love it.

Speaker 1 (01:08:20):
Their talk is on WNBA talk on fire again. ESPN
analyst Andrea Carter right in the center of it. Fans
are blasting her accusing her of gatekeeping who's allowed to
criticize coaches and players? Carter's been pushing back on people
she says only watch one clip, pile on and fuel
the outrage. WNBA fans are not taking this well. They're
calling her biased, calling ESPN biased, calling everybody biased, and

(01:08:43):
it's turned into this hole are you a real fan
or not? Drama? Everybody's convinced the other side doesn't actually
watch the games, and again, the story's bigger than the
basketball itself. Mid weeker, major.

Speaker 5 (01:08:55):
Mid some but you know she's not wrong, but he's watching.
Who's watching these games?

Speaker 1 (01:09:01):
Dude?

Speaker 5 (01:09:02):
Like in their entirety?

Speaker 1 (01:09:04):
You're right. We asked, have you watched a full fever game?

Speaker 5 (01:09:07):
No, I have not, but we've commented on Kaitlyn and yeah,
got it wrong. She's right there, she's right on, But
you don't need to watch a full game to understand
the full story.

Speaker 4 (01:09:19):
So that's what we really want rolling with. So that's
the truth. That's the truth. My thake is it's major okay.
Thiaus are realizing that the drama around the WNBA is
what's perpetuating any attention this league is getting. So the
reality is, once the Kaitlin Clark hitting. All these three
settled down like a year ago. They're getting by on drama,
and I think they should lean into it.

Speaker 5 (01:09:39):
I've always said that the trance stuff is tricky.

Speaker 4 (01:09:42):
The coach and stuff, but the reality is when you're
on the bigger you get right when we fill in
for Dan Patrick, guess what we get more of feedback
you got every every step you take up, you get
more feedback, more affiliates, more feedback. That's you deal with
the pros and the cons, and with that always comes negativity.

Speaker 5 (01:10:00):
She's got to deal with it all right, Thank you, guys,
deal with it. Thank you. Great job, Danny g And
do you know what I'm talking about?

Speaker 1 (01:10:08):
A nutcracker?

Speaker 5 (01:10:09):
Yeah, but you know the all nutcracker, Yeah, the walnut ones.
Why don't we do that anymore?

Speaker 1 (01:10:13):
Good for your hand strength?

Speaker 4 (01:10:14):
Yeah, so he's doing that. He's he's watching me open
baseball cards. Hand strength used to matter a lot more.

Speaker 5 (01:10:19):
Remember your parents had those grippy things, dude, And my
grandpap he had mangled fingers because he was a butcher, right,
so he had his butcher hands mangling those nuts.

Speaker 4 (01:10:29):
Now we're ach, we have nidos, Yeah, and I'm opening
up baseball cards and I pull up a Robbie Thompson
nineteen eighty seven San Francisco Giants card right, and he
played second base, I believe, for the San Francisco Giants,
Robbie Thompson. His name was Robbie Thompson. And I remember

(01:10:49):
specifically my grandfather going, you got a Bobby Thompson. He
was a legend, And I'm like, I was so confused,
but he was a New York Giants legend, ye and
he hit that famous nineteen fifty one walk off home
run against the Brooklyn around the world, shot heard around
the world, And he was telling me the whole story,
and I'm like, pop, pop, I don't think it's the
same guy, but he's out the Giants. I'm like, it

(01:11:12):
can't beat because this dude's playing in eighty seven. But
I do remember my grandfather telling me about the shot
heard around the world, Bobby Thompson.

Speaker 1 (01:11:22):
Thompson, Yeah, I pulled.

Speaker 5 (01:11:23):
The row exactly.

Speaker 4 (01:11:24):
I pulled the Robbie Thompson, not a Bobby Thompson, who
again was a nineteen fifty one n L Pennant hero.
So I do remember that story. And then of course
you grew up learning and realizing, like, yeah, that was
a big.

Speaker 5 (01:11:38):
Moment in baseball history. Man, Well you're out at energy.

Speaker 4 (01:11:41):
Do you mind Later I'm pulling Covinos saying quote his
butcher hands mangled as nuts.

Speaker 5 (01:11:46):
Thank you, I'm glad that's your takeaway. It's beautiful.

Speaker 4 (01:11:49):
Thanks for taking my beautiful story about my grandfather and
making it dirty. I'm sorry I had to your thoughts, ruiner,
your call, ruiner of life, Rich Davis, all those old
school legends on the Unfortunate Anniversary.

Speaker 1 (01:12:01):
You want to start with the studio lines here.

Speaker 4 (01:12:03):
You know what, Oddly enough, but it is stories like
that though, that your GRANDPARENTY talked about, like I.

Speaker 5 (01:12:07):
Don't never forget fifty one. I mean, it sounds the shot.

Speaker 4 (01:12:11):
It sounds crazy though that Mickey Mantle died at sixty three,
you know what, thirty one years ago, which means he
would I mean, it's not crazy. He could still be
alive at ninety four. Dick Van Dyke's one hundred Betty
White lived in ninety nine. So in an alternate universe,
you know, Mickey Mantle's still around.

Speaker 5 (01:12:28):
You know what I have thought.

Speaker 4 (01:12:29):
The sad revelation was Danny every time at Baseball All
Star Break. You know how they would you know, in
past years they'd bring out the legends.

Speaker 1 (01:12:36):
Yeah, some of them ride on carts.

Speaker 4 (01:12:38):
Yeah, they're right on cars or the little cars that
look like have big helmets.

Speaker 5 (01:12:41):
They're waving to the crowd.

Speaker 4 (01:12:43):
We do realize that of that generation, they're all gone now,
like Yoki Barrow is one of the likes ones to go.
The legends now are sadly players from our childhood, like
the Mike Schmidts of the world and the eighties players
and why the Reggie Jackson's Like those are the guys
that there was less attendance that the Yankees Old Teimer's
day than ever before.

Speaker 5 (01:13:04):
Who's an old timer now, Bernie Williams.

Speaker 4 (01:13:05):
Exactly, because there's a weird disconnect of like where's the legends.
They're not These guys aren't that old. They're not around anymore.
That's the truth. It's the same revolution. It's the same
revelation of when you're like classic rock and you're thinking
like sixties or seventies, like no, no, like the nineties,
yeah grunge.

Speaker 5 (01:13:24):
Yeah exactly.

Speaker 1 (01:13:24):
By the way, I think one of the oldest legends
Hall of Famers and baseball still left around Sandy Kofax.

Speaker 4 (01:13:30):
Yes, yeah, and he was the eighty eight now he is.
You're right, Danny j He's like the only guy we
talked about that recently or we looked it up recently.
Who are those people on the day the Mick died
Mickey Mantle nineteen ninety five, thirty one years ago today,
So many of those legends we lost in the last decade.
All right, where are we going, Danny, Let's start in
Rapid City. Bart, y'all rapid City?

Speaker 5 (01:13:52):
Hey, Bart, Hey, guys.

Speaker 8 (01:13:54):
How are you doing well?

Speaker 5 (01:13:55):
Good man? What's up?

Speaker 1 (01:13:57):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (01:13:57):
So I'm named after Bart Starr. I was born the
year they won the first Super Bowl.

Speaker 5 (01:14:01):
That's cool, man, And yeah yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:14:03):
My dad always had this picture of Bart throwing this
laser and in his study. And I got a good story.
If you got a couple of seconds, yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:14:12):
Do it make it snappy, But I want to hear good, sir,
go ahead.

Speaker 8 (01:14:15):
Yeah. So my dad got cancer and I thought, uh,
you know, I'll write to Bart's Starr and ask him,
you know, could you do something to cheer my dad up?
And a couple of years go by, I never hear
from him, and I think boy, here's this guy who's
got this great reputation for being a nice guy. He
totally blows me off. Anyway, I'm at work one day
a couple of years later, in the phone rings and uh,
it's a woman answers. I answered. A woman says, yeah, hey,

(01:14:38):
this is Bart Bart Star secretary. Is your dad still alive?
I said, well, yeah he is, and she said, oh,
we were just moving some boxes around and moved our
office and I found your letter and we want to
send you something that's great. So yeah, yeah, it was nice.
Sent me a letter, you know, talking about Nat and
me after him and stuff and a signed photo. And

(01:15:00):
so he had to leave his job, so he was
retiring and I roasted him. And he was a quirky dude,
not unlike myself, and so I ripped him a good one,
all his weird habits and courts he had. And at
the end I read I told the story about the letter,
and I read the letter and I framed it and everything,
and he came up and got it. And I looked

(01:15:21):
in the front row and here's all these ancient dudes,
all my dad's friends, and they're sitting there just balling
in their seat.

Speaker 1 (01:15:27):
That's a good story. Man's a really good story story.
You know what, Bart hang on the line. I think
we should mail him a grilling apron. Yeah, that was
a really good story about bart Star.

Speaker 5 (01:15:37):
Not as cool as a.

Speaker 4 (01:15:37):
Letter from bart Star, but it's kind of cool. He
was named after Bart. I was named after Richard Simmons.

Speaker 5 (01:15:42):
Yet no CAVI.

Speaker 4 (01:15:45):
You know you were named after Steve Bealboni, the actor
Steve Balboni. A lot of people don't know that sounds fun.
Fact he never wrote me back though. I was named
after Daniel LaRussa. Oh yeah, all Valley Championship. Have you
seen that clip float around social media? It's oh, yeah,
the alternate and yeah, people are playing a prank on
people and it's through AI.

Speaker 5 (01:16:04):
Where they make it through AI. It's the final scene.

Speaker 4 (01:16:06):
So I was saying, picture this if someone you know
hasn't watched Karate Kid. People have done it where they
have the whole hour forty five two hour movie and
in the final scene, right when Daniel Soun's about to
do the crane kick, they stop and him and Johnny
start making out, and people.

Speaker 5 (01:16:21):
Like what, yeah, you see all the reactions, reactions like
what is this?

Speaker 4 (01:16:25):
It's a two hour prank. Essentially, it's a two hour
setup to a prank. And I see that's really funny. Honestly,
that is a funny use of AI is sorry, Wait
what happened?

Speaker 1 (01:16:37):
All right, let's go to Northern Cali. Low Scatows is
in the house.

Speaker 4 (01:16:40):
Isn't Sam named after Sam the butcher from The Brady Bunch? Yes, yeah,
we figured that out right.

Speaker 1 (01:16:45):
Let's talk to Gus.

Speaker 4 (01:16:46):
Hey, Gus, Hey, guys love the show.

Speaker 11 (01:16:51):
Hey, I'll make it quick. This is out to my
dad and Coavino. I'm sure you were a fan too,
But growing up, all I heard about was Thurman Munson.
Oh yeah, And to this day, every time I pull
a punt or pull a drive, my dad pulls at
a Thurman Munson dead pull hitter. I've never seen it
at bat, but I feel like I know exactly what

(01:17:13):
his approach was. And then I think of the Orange
Catcher's gear too, for like a New York Yankee.

Speaker 4 (01:17:20):
Well, dude, do you know they just recently paid homage.
Just this past week, Austin Wells was rocking the orange
gear that saying and tribute, and it was so moving
to his wife that she was crying in tears and
she was so grateful about it. And they still have
his locker untouched at Yankee Stadium. But that's a great
name and a great example too, right, because they'll tell
you about like the time they watched Derman Munson play,

(01:17:43):
because you have no idea what it was like. Thank
you man, great call. So yeah, on this day Mickey
Mantle passed away. I am trying to think of some
of those classic guys that you'll never truly you know,
I hate to say it, but when it comes to baseball,
a lot of those classic names we we grew up
rich and I grew up on the East Coast. It's
Joe DiMaggio's. It's names like that. It's a lot of

(01:18:05):
you know, Yankee greats. You know, I'm not saying Mets
don't count.

Speaker 5 (01:18:10):
They don't.

Speaker 4 (01:18:11):
But Ed Cranepool doesn't ring like exactly like a Mickey Mano.

Speaker 5 (01:18:15):
Or Roger Maris.

Speaker 1 (01:18:16):
Did I know the famous story that we know from
U Covino seeing a Yankees legend in traffic? Did your
parents ever meet an athlete and because of that they
would tell that story a lot and then follow that
player's career.

Speaker 4 (01:18:29):
No, my mom loves to tell the story, Cavino makes
it sound like this is something like, well, you must
have grew up in like a rich little league. It
was not the case at all. It was super Long
Island suburbs. We used to have a baseball player from
the Mets or Yankees come to our end of the
year awards ceremony.

Speaker 5 (01:18:44):
That's insane.

Speaker 4 (01:18:45):
Anyone else here have that experience, That's what I'm talking about.

Speaker 5 (01:18:49):
A Met or a Yankee at that age. That would
have freaked me out, Like what Dave Whitfield's coming, I
had a heart attack.

Speaker 1 (01:18:56):
We had DJ train from JJ fadd playing music that
was our It was.

Speaker 5 (01:19:00):
It was like it was a an old guy pipe
to sell rapper. Dude.

Speaker 4 (01:19:05):
It was a dinner where you got your trophies if
if you were like a first or second place team,
and they gave out the yearbooks which have had like
your stats in them, like a little you know, crappy
Kinko's copy of like your stats, and there was there
was always a Met or Yankee. Someone was pulling shrinks
for you guys. Maybe there's someone that news in the league.
But this was I grew up on Long Island in
like a middle class town.

Speaker 5 (01:19:25):
But anyway.

Speaker 4 (01:19:26):
Yeah, there was like Randy Neeman, Tommy John one year,
who by the way, is in hospice now if you
saw that, wrote a nice letter to all the fans
over the years. One year, Mookie Wilson was there and
that was the biggest name they ever got, Mookie Wilson
in the eighties. That was like a that was a
git right, think of that mook. And the story goes
that my brother was so little that my mother put

(01:19:48):
my brother down and my brother threw his METS hat
at Mooki Wilson and hit him right in the face.
And Ki was like, ah, and that story, legendary story,
that story. And then my brother picked up the hat
and throw it him again, and like that's the story.
Like remember when your brother kept hitting Mookie Wilson. Your
parents love to retell. Yeah, maybe those same stories. And
I have I have that hat somewhere where it's like
some crappy METS hat and it's signed by Mookie Wilson.

(01:20:10):
Stephen Baker of the New York Football Giants come to
one of our like state championship dinners or something like that, and.

Speaker 5 (01:20:18):
Know she was hanging out with Dave Roberts the other day.

Speaker 14 (01:20:19):
I mean, that's how you hand That's how you shake
a hand.

Speaker 5 (01:20:23):
That was big time than it really was. That's a
true story. Check out i G. Right, is it on
your It's on i G.

Speaker 14 (01:20:32):
I G has more of the pictures on Twitter. I
did put the handshake, but just one other picture that's
has more.

Speaker 4 (01:20:38):
I think that's super cool. That's something you could tell
your grandkids.

Speaker 14 (01:20:40):
Right and I'm gonna I'm gonna have a seminar on
how to have a proper handshack Monty.

Speaker 1 (01:20:44):
Who's the coolest Dodgers legend that you've got to meet?

Speaker 14 (01:20:48):
Sean Green?

Speaker 5 (01:20:50):
It's pretty awesome.

Speaker 14 (01:20:51):
I worked with him for a special event and he
was pretty awesome. Yeah, he just you would he He's
still so humble and so, you know, I had a
really great time with him. But a lot of the
legends are great, they really.

Speaker 5 (01:21:04):
Are you ever deal with Clayton Kershall yet or no?

Speaker 1 (01:21:06):
Yeah?

Speaker 14 (01:21:06):
Well, I mean he's he was. I've been there for
so long. He's always been very kind. Uh, he just
I think, you know, there's some people who are more
I don't want to say he's socially awkward, but you
know what I mean, Like he doesn't like the attention.
So with like tour guests, you could always see like
his anxiety a little bit like build up. With others
they embrace it. Dave Roberts embraces it.

Speaker 4 (01:21:26):
By the way, we just showed the photo of Monty Yeah,
thank you YouTube page and.

Speaker 5 (01:21:34):
Shake Elijah Man. It really was. It's like the icon.
Everything is strong, all.

Speaker 14 (01:21:38):
Of it, all of it. You can see our our
flexed arms like you know what I'm saying, you to.

Speaker 5 (01:21:43):
Look like diplomats making agreements. What's second only to when
you used to date L P. Week right? Can you
not and then you not stop? I'll tell you what though?
Dan you pose? Uh, you pose an interesting question? Man
like run ins with that?

Speaker 14 (01:22:01):
I'm telling you anything.

Speaker 4 (01:22:02):
Ever, again, it seems so impossible or improbable to me
as a kid growing up a Jersey kid. It just
seemed like my parents interacting with with a professional athlete.

Speaker 5 (01:22:14):
That just seems unheard of.

Speaker 4 (01:22:16):
MANSI, what about the time with Justin Turner gave you
uh red beard trimmings and a.

Speaker 5 (01:22:19):
Ziploc bag and you have it under your pillows? Another
not true stories? Not true?

Speaker 14 (01:22:25):
Thank you? Another not true story?

Speaker 4 (01:22:27):
But again based on that, are there other legendary names.
You know when when our buddy called about Bart Starr,
like you always heard old timers talk about Johnny unit Is,
even old wrestlers, wrestlers like old wrestler names Martino.

Speaker 5 (01:22:41):
Who do you think you are? Bruno? Sean Martino? You like,
who's that?

Speaker 1 (01:22:43):
Grandpa?

Speaker 5 (01:22:44):
Let me tell you he was the greatest Red Grange.

Speaker 4 (01:22:48):
Yeah, it's always those same names, those same type of names.

Speaker 1 (01:22:52):
Did you guys see the Johnny Bench documentary? Uh, a
couple of years ago now, but I used to watch
the baseball bunch growing up, Johnny Bench, mirandfather he would
talk about Johnny Bench and Joe Morgan and those Cincinnati
Reds and he had like a magnet and sticker on
his garage and his refrigerator. For some reason, those Reds
like really resonated with him. Yeah, big red machine, Yeah,

(01:23:12):
big red Machine. He talked about it. Cincinnati. Yeah, and
my grandpa wasn't from Cincinnati, but he was really caught
up in that squad and always talked about those players.

Speaker 5 (01:23:22):
That's awesome.

Speaker 4 (01:23:23):
Yeah, those legendary names, legendary players, and yeah they stick
you know when they really come to life too, if
you were ever fortunate enough to find like their old
baseball cards or something or fine, like I found all
my uncle's old cards, and all those names came to life, Like,
oh my god, because you heard about those things your

(01:23:43):
whole life. Now you're finding baseball cards of those dudes.
I got something I'm gonna say that might sound crazy
to you. First of all, I got one old timey
time guy that gets zero credit for what he's accomplished
because he was such like a fun, goofball type of guy.
You mention him a few moments ago. If you've never
seen the documentary, it ain't over about Yogi Bera. It's

(01:24:09):
really good because you realize this guy's a ten time
World Series champion. His stats line up with anyone. But
because he was like Yogi Bera and they did the
Yogi bear and yogiisms, and because he and truthfully they
even talk about the documentary and not being mean, because
he wasn't the most handsome fella. He was the butt
of jokes when people used to be a lot more.

Speaker 5 (01:24:28):
Meaning and look like the conventional you know baseball say.

Speaker 4 (01:24:32):
But he became a caricature of himself, and he became
almost the punchline. Yeah, when you had these handsome other
new York Yankees and pinstripes. His personality overshadows his accolades,
and his accolades are insane, and when you look at
what he's accomplished on the field, Yogi Bera is a
name we all know, but it's a name that's far
better than we think. You know where the Yogi Bearra

(01:24:53):
Museum is at my college where they should retire my
number jont Clair State. Yeah, home of the Jogi Barra Museum.
And they stole his rings, dude, there was a whole
story there. I don't know if they got him back
or how they replaced them, but it's a beautiful it's
a very wonderful museum in his honor and in honor

(01:25:13):
of Yogi berra.

Speaker 14 (01:25:14):
Let me.

Speaker 4 (01:25:14):
Let me bring up one thing and tell me what
you think about this thought. It's been a minute now,
six years ago during remember that lame ass time of
life called COVID, when we were all stuck at home
watching We're watching the Tiger King and doing a Carol
Baskin dances. Carol Baskin killed her husband, whacked him. When

(01:25:35):
you were like on TikTok for the first time.

Speaker 5 (01:25:37):
What was the thing we.

Speaker 4 (01:25:38):
All watched in the Sports World, the Last dance Bingo Bingo.
I think we neglect to realize even someone as young
as Mansi, a lot of people truly didn't watch Michael Jordan.
They know Michael Jordan the most famous athlete of the
last one hundred years. You say him and Babe Ruth
might be the one and two Michael Jordan. If you

(01:26:02):
weren't alive and sort of knowing things in the nineties,
you're just going based off sneakers legacy.

Speaker 5 (01:26:09):
Oh, he's the goat.

Speaker 4 (01:26:10):
You know how many people call him the goat over
Lebron and everyone else that's never even seen him play
a minute. Michael Jordan walked away from real basketball. I
know the Wizards chapter, but in nineteen ninety eight. That
is almost thirty years ago. So if your kid that's
thirty five or younger, don't tell me you know anything
about Michael Jordan. No, but your stories, if you did,
your stories of so watching Michael Jordan player or watching

(01:26:32):
Mike Tyson fight.

Speaker 5 (01:26:33):
Yeah, that's why those are your stories.

Speaker 4 (01:26:35):
That's why I think the Jordan like goat thing gets
exaggerated because there's a lot of youngsters. We all watch
him play and know what he did but there's a
lot of youngsters that I think pile on to the
myth even more like they forget he got stopped by
by the Pistons and the Celtics for years and years.
Younger people think Michael Jordan was even more invincible than
he was in that documentary. Yeah, and that documentary that

(01:26:57):
stroked him Last Dance Intuinity even more so, I think
a lot of youngsters don't even really know Michael Jordan.
We watched NBA on NBC as a kid, you know
John Tash, Yet the data, the bump bupa kids today
don't know. We also have important Scottie Pippen was to
the process too, all right, Anyway, more fun, I wanted

(01:27:17):
to get that out there because we're talking about legends
and his time swining. You can't say nineties bands are
a classic rock and that's say Michael Jordan's classic nineties
Come on eighties, eight, seven, seven, ninety nine on Fox.
Let's rap it with two more. Who do we got there?

Speaker 1 (01:27:30):
Let's go to Iowa. Joey, Hey, Joey, what up?

Speaker 14 (01:27:33):
Hey?

Speaker 2 (01:27:34):
Hey guys, So my local post office. I'm in there
quite a bit and there's this young kid that works
there and his name is Jenner. And you know, I'm
making small talk one day and I'm like, so, Jenner,
that's an interesting name, and he's like, well, my dad
ran track in morning sidet he named me after Bruce Jenner.
And then he just doesn't even look up and he's like, man, yeah,

(01:27:54):

Speaker 5 (01:27:56):
Yeah, that's a funny story.

Speaker 1 (01:28:01):

Speaker 4 (01:28:08):
Rich and I interviewed Bruce when he was when he
was Bruce, and it was it was such an honor.
It was really cool. He was a cool dude. Fun fact.
I don't know how many people can say this. We
interviewed Bruce and Caitlyn Jenner trying.

Speaker 5 (01:28:20):
Yeah, uh huh, Bruce, that's trying. Guys.

Speaker 4 (01:28:22):
Let me tell you a gentleman and a lady both times.
How crazy is that we interviewed Bruce. I was like, hey, Bruce,
I remember saying, Bruce, you want to why don't you
hook me up with Kim?

Speaker 5 (01:28:32):
You think you're gonna handle that?

Speaker 1 (01:28:33):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:28:34):
I don't think he was like, Kitlyn, you think you
could hook me with Kim And he's like, you think
you can handle that?

Speaker 4 (01:28:42):
I don't think you're cann handle that. Yeah, So I
mean great both times. I'm a fan.

Speaker 1 (01:28:47):
All right, let's wrap this up, Carson City, Mark, you
got thirty seconds.

Speaker 5 (01:28:51):
Mark.

Speaker 12 (01:28:52):
Hey, So when my kids were younger, I tried to
educate him on the rams because my neighbor it was
Rosie Greer cool, and nobody knew exactly who he was
until I told him it was the football player that knitted,
and then all of a sudden, it was like everybody

(01:29:12):
knew him.

Speaker 4 (01:29:13):
You know, you got to remember, as we all get older, eighties,
nineties and before that, it's all classics now. So it's
our job to wrap it up. It's our job to
teach the next generation, just like your grandpappy tell you
about uh Muhammad Ali and.

Speaker 5 (01:29:27):
That's going to be youthful. O. J.

Speaker 1 (01:29:29):
Simpson.

Speaker 4 (01:29:29):
One day and you're going to tell your kids, You'll
never guess what happens.

Speaker 5 (01:29:34):
He was. He was loved by everyone, and then one day.

Speaker 4 (01:29:38):
Exactly all right, So legendary games and on this day
we remember and celebrate Mickey Mantle, all right, let's do this.
We do it every Friday. It's a signal to me

Right now, yo yo yo, Happy Friday.

Speaker 5 (01:30:39):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:30:40):
The questions in this game are all subjective. You just
need to try to match the brain of CNR and
the crew. Let's get our contestant from the studio lines
and then I'll explain the rules quickly. JD from Florida
was the first through.

Speaker 5 (01:30:52):
What up Florida?

Speaker 10 (01:30:53):
Hey?

Speaker 5 (01:30:53):

Speaker 1 (01:31:06):
Let's go, nice, I have five rounds ready and he's
gonna need to win two of them to be the
champ and walk away with that prize pack. I'm going
to ask a question, give three equal answers to choose
from the five of us from the show, will write
down our answers on these dry erase boards for our
YouTube channel. Then on the count of three, JD shouts
out his answer. He's got a match with three out
of the five of us to win the round or
no matter his answer, If all five of us happen

(01:31:27):
to match, it's a back door cover, he gets the round.

Speaker 5 (01:31:30):
All right, Are you ready?

Speaker 1 (01:31:31):
Yes?

Speaker 5 (01:31:32):
Ready?

Speaker 11 (01:31:32):
Do it?

Speaker 1 (01:31:33):
Round one? Rich is playing with his dry erase board
over there. All right, And in honor of Rich, we
start with relationships.

Speaker 5 (01:31:41):
Oh, let's go. I'm an expert.

Speaker 1 (01:31:45):
Which action by your partner would bother you the most?
They had lunch with an X, they went through your phone,
or they complained about your relationship to their friends. Which
of these actions by your partner would bother you the most?
They had lunch with an X, they went through your phone,

(01:32:06):
or they complained about your relationship to their friends.

Speaker 5 (01:32:11):
I think this is a pretty obvious one. Perhaps you've
said that before. All right, we're right now, answers. Okay,
everybody in lockdown loaded JD. We need your answer on
the counter. Three one two three. With that, he says, lunch,
we start with Steve Covino.

Speaker 4 (01:32:30):
Oh man, it's easy for me. It's the phone for
multiple reasons. Invasion of privacy.

Speaker 5 (01:32:36):
You're looking to fight, and you're gonna find something if
you look hard enough that you're not gonna be happy with.
You know what, Right you could go phone because I'm
not hiding anything.

Speaker 4 (01:32:46):
And the other one was not talking to everyone. Look
into your phone, they're going to find something. I knew
Rich was going to say that everyone talks smack a
little bit, so talking to her friends who cares in
the phone Lunch with an X can lead to some
shot at aigains.

Speaker 5 (01:32:59):
I think that's bad news. There's brown, all right, il.

Speaker 7 (01:33:03):
Y'all don't have to worry about finding anything funny on
my phone. Lunch with an X.

Speaker 1 (01:33:08):
Okay, you know what. The public part of the complaining
riches what's bad. So I said, public complaining the friends, Okay,
that happens. People think, all right, So it comes down
to Iowa Sam.

Speaker 15 (01:33:24):
Man, Well, yeah, venting's here friends about your singing together
is fine?

Speaker 5 (01:33:28):
People do that.

Speaker 15 (01:33:30):
Uh, lunch with the ex is of real red flag.
But I said, went going through the phone.

Speaker 5 (01:33:36):
I think that's a real phone. You what do you
got on that.

Speaker 4 (01:33:41):
They're sneaking around enough to do that. They're gonna find
anything to fight with you about.

Speaker 1 (01:33:46):
Your screen is cracked, nobody can see to worry about. Yeah,
that's how you hide it, all right. Round two, let's
go to speed hold on.

Speaker 4 (01:33:55):
Now, if you were sleeping and she held your eyelids
open to get your face scanned, that's a lot like
I mean, Or is she like you know, getting your
fingerprint with scotch tape or something?

Speaker 5 (01:34:05):
Know your code? Genius?

Speaker 4 (01:34:06):
I mean, yeah, I mean you don't know your girlfriend's code? No,
why would I I'm not a snoop like you. Alright,
I don't know like my wife and.

Speaker 5 (01:34:14):
I know where This was a good topic because it
caused you to don't yeah, I know.

Speaker 1 (01:34:17):
Like all right, JD. We moved around to let's go
to sports. Which NFL storyline are you most excited to
see play out this season? Can the Chiefs get back
to Super Bowl form? Can Aaron Rodgers make one more
real run, or which young QB will take the biggest leap?
Which those three NFL storylines you're most excited to see

(01:34:38):
play out this season. Chiefs getting back to super Bowl form,
possibly Aaron Rodgers making one more real run, or which
young QB will take the biggest leap?

Speaker 5 (01:34:50):
Okay, I think this is another no brainer.

Speaker 1 (01:34:56):
Everybody locked, yes, sir, locked in Okay, j D one
two three, going back.

Speaker 4 (01:35:04):
George Cover and taking Aaron Rodgers.

Speaker 1 (01:35:07):
He says, Aaron Rodgers, and we start with Iowa Samuel
in reverse order.

Speaker 15 (01:35:11):
I don't think anything is gonna come with Aaron Rodgers
and his last year and probably another playoff exit early on.

Speaker 5 (01:35:17):
So I went with Chiefs, Chiefs. You don't have Chiefs fatigue?

Speaker 15 (01:35:21):
Well they've been, they've drifted away. Now the fatigue has
turned to strength or something like that.

Speaker 1 (01:35:26):
JD. You get a point for me. Even though I
put the guys on an Aaron Rodgers timer, I still
think he's going to have our attention to start this season.

Speaker 7 (01:35:34):
Kind of sick and tired to the whole Aaron Rodgers
thing that's played out.

Speaker 3 (01:35:37):
So are the Chiefs on go? Young quarterback QB's all right, Rich.

Speaker 4 (01:35:41):
Davis Ilo, You and I seem to be the only
cats with a brain here because I feel like Aaron
Rodgers that's a The other two storylines are tired. Danny
gives us timers. When I talk about the Travis Taylor,
you give me a timer. When I talk about Aaron Rodgers,
I talk about like his last chance. I talk about Mendoza,
You're gonna be licking your chops.

Speaker 1 (01:36:00):
I just don't feel like you're gonna be talking about
that till later in the year.

Speaker 4 (01:36:02):
But with you and Danny g I said rogers, because
whether you're sick of them or not, rooting for the
old guy always becomes like a fun storyline.

Speaker 1 (01:36:14):
All right, we go to round three. Holy Rollers. Tim
Tebow turns thirty nine today.

Speaker 5 (01:36:20):
Whoa, it's whoa, whoa. That seems wild.

Speaker 4 (01:36:24):
So if he would have been in the NFL all
that time, he would have like naturally retired or been
like at the very.

Speaker 1 (01:36:29):
End in his honor. Who would you rather go to
church with this Sunday?

Speaker 5 (01:36:34):
That's a great question.

Speaker 1 (01:36:35):
That is Chris Tucker, Mark Wahlberg or mc hammer. That's
very That's all three religious celebs. I researched. Which fun
celebs are also religious and go to church.

Speaker 3 (01:36:49):
I don't know Chris Tucker was religious.

Speaker 1 (01:36:50):
Yeah, yeah, mis Tucker, Mark Wahlberg and Hammer.

Speaker 5 (01:36:54):
I feel like Danny either dreamt this or he was high.

Speaker 1 (01:36:58):
No, I did the research on this.

Speaker 3 (01:37:01):
It doesn't disqualify that from happening.

Speaker 1 (01:37:04):
Now. Everybody locked in? Yeah, locked in j D one two.

Speaker 3 (01:37:09):
Three, middle late white guy.

Speaker 1 (01:37:11):
I gotta go with he goes Wahlberg, Steve Covino, What
say you?

Speaker 4 (01:37:15):
I said, Wahlburg because we could go hang out with
the funky bunch later on. Maybe go to Wallburg.

Speaker 1 (01:37:22):
You're trying to get a free burger.

Speaker 5 (01:37:23):
We can work out together. Yeah, talk about and I
think Tucker as fun as he is, we've interviewed him.
I don't know, he's He's a lot to handle. Listen.

Speaker 4 (01:37:33):
I immediately disqualified Wallburger Holburg because I just feel like
black people have way more fun at church and white people,
haven't you know? I mean, I like your reason. That's
the reason number one. And then I'm like, Chris Tucker
could be irritating, like do you hear the words? It it
coming out of the preacher's mouth.

Speaker 10 (01:37:47):
I just think like.

Speaker 1 (01:37:51):
You guys both had the same bad joke.

Speaker 5 (01:37:53):
I love, but I love what I steal each other
the same jokes.

Speaker 3 (01:37:55):
It was not a bad joke. It was quite witty.

Speaker 7 (01:37:57):
Okay, since the my thunder has been officially stolen, and
I didn't know that he was apparently a pain in
the you know what, Chris Tucker, So he's a lot
to handle, huh.

Speaker 1 (01:38:08):
But we're on the same brainwave, Bilo. I also said,
Chris Tucker, Yeah, yeah, what'd you say? Sam?

Speaker 15 (01:38:15):
Inconsequential now? But I was with JD here. I went
with Wahlberg. Wahlberg dude, because I mean, I just am
a fan of him.

Speaker 1 (01:38:21):
Out of the all right, most of those you got
to pray just to make it today, right, yeah, JD?
You got to sweep the last two categories here. Let's
go to movies. Which movie would you have most liked
to be an extra in? Top Gun, Maverick, Gladiator, or
The Dark Knight? Which are these three movies? Would you

(01:38:41):
have most like to be an extra in? Top Gun, Maverick,
Gladiator or The Dark Knight?

Speaker 5 (01:38:49):
Locked?

Speaker 1 (01:38:49):
Were all right in our answers, This one's obvious.

Speaker 5 (01:38:52):
Locked in Give me one more time?

Speaker 1 (01:38:54):
Okay, which movie would you have most liked to be
an extra? In top gun Maverick Gladiator for the Dark Knight.
All right, JD, we need your answer in the count
of three, one two, three, Dark Knight, He says, Dark
Knight go in reverse order.

Speaker 15 (01:39:10):
Iowa, Sam, I mean for the costumes alone. I went
with Gladiator. Come on, get to wear cool leather and
brass and stuff and cop in the you know.

Speaker 3 (01:39:22):
Fabrics is oddly specifically leather, and.

Speaker 1 (01:39:25):
Get to see and you'd get to see Ridley Scott
like losing his mind on the set. I also said Gladiator, Hi.

Speaker 3 (01:39:31):
Love, Yeah, you know. I also said Gladiator.

Speaker 5 (01:39:35):
So the ladies can chance back door lady.

Speaker 3 (01:39:38):
Ladies could see me in my toga.

Speaker 1 (01:39:39):
Don't let us down Rich.

Speaker 4 (01:39:42):
So that Cavino could finally see my room in war helmet. Uh, Gladiator,
Let's come, let's go back door.

Speaker 5 (01:39:49):

Speaker 4 (01:39:50):
My only opposition was wearing sandals, because that's what no
know where I come from.

Speaker 5 (01:39:54):
But I still said.

I will, I will take it.

Speaker 1 (01:40:02):
Our crew kept you alive. We go to round five.
Come on, win, Come on, last chance, we're gonna go
back to sports.

Speaker 5 (01:40:09):
Let's think. Let's think what we would answer que if.

Speaker 1 (01:40:11):
You could sit in one spot for a huge game.
Where are you sitting fifty yard line front row obviously NFL,
court side at an NBA game, or behind home plate
at an MLB game.

Speaker 7 (01:40:24):
Sorry to be a jerk, but fifty yard line in
the front row. If it's maybe ten rows up, that's
better because it's front row, the players get.

Speaker 1 (01:40:32):
On your rant. It so best seat at an NFL game,
you could say that, or court sided an NBA game,
or behind home plate at MLB. Think about it?

Speaker 5 (01:40:43):
Got it all right?

Speaker 4 (01:40:47):
Everybody locked in unlocked, and I think it's so obvious,
so please yes.

Speaker 1 (01:40:52):
All right on the count of three, j D one two.

Speaker 9 (01:40:55):
Three, I've missed all the obvious that I gotta go NFL.

Speaker 1 (01:41:00):
He says, fifty yard line NFL. Maybe he could get
a back door cover, Steve Cavino.

Speaker 4 (01:41:05):
No, NFL seats are always the weakest, no matter what
court side.

Speaker 5 (01:41:09):
You're like a superstar, dude. You're right there watching the game,
right in the action. Davis, who's our who's our friendly bonehead? Again?
