Speaker 2 (01:55):
Spot breaks down the biggest stories in the world of
sports and pop culture. Are the stories mid Are they weak?
Are they major? We'll get to that, all right. Got
Pooka Nakula to talk about some NFL. By the way,
speaking of the NFL, I mean maybe we misunderstood it.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
Yesterday.

Speaker 2 (02:14):
We did break the news, but originally we thought it
was or should I say, Dan Byer.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
Broke the news.

Speaker 2 (02:20):
But on this show, Russell Wilson one year, twenty one
million dollars, it's really ten million dollars with the possibility
of twenty one mil.

Speaker 1 (02:31):
So I ask you this.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
I look at him and Justin Fields as the two
headed quarterback in Pittsburgh that went their separate ways, right,
Because remember it was like we were all sort of confused,
like would you go with RUSSA, would you go with
Justin Fields? It seems as though the rest of the
league thinks Theys way more value in Justin Fields two
years forty mil with the Jets, where Russ gets a
one year deal ten plus incentives that could be twenty

(02:53):
So do you look at Russell Wilson as like that
much less valuable than Justin Fields because apparently everyone else does.

Speaker 1 (03:00):
How crazy that both of them wound up in New York.

Speaker 2 (03:03):
I thought about that after we left too yesterday. I said, well, yeah,
it happened, so suddenly, you know, it took us a
minute to process the situation, like wow, damn, well, what
about Rogers? What about Sanders? Like the Giants got Russell
Wilson back in New York, and I see back in
New York, because remember he did a little spring training
with the Yankees.

Speaker 4 (03:21):
Also, Cove, how about what it means for some of
the other teams at the top of the draft that
are quarterback needy.

Speaker 2 (03:28):
Then you got to ask yourself also besides that date,
and I'm thinking even another layer. When you see guys
like Justin Fields getting twenty Russ ten plus incentives, Rock
Perty's probably still waiting around, like what that doesn't bode
well for him? You get to pay Rock Purty fifty
sixty million dollars when teams are getting guys like Russ
for ten or Justin Fields for twenty, like rock Perties

(03:50):
price tag may have dropped into the forties.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
Whatever.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
I think the Giants looked at it this way. I'm
gonna quote the great Aaron Boone of the New York Yankees,
who he was asked about. Aaron Boone, he was asked
about Alex Radugo's one year deal with the Braves for
like one point five million dollars. He says something the
ones along the lines of, they got a solid big
league player for a little bit of money, And I
feel like that's the same thing with Russell Wilson he's

(04:15):
not the same Russell Wilson, but he got a solid
NFL quarterback. Yeah, he's on his downward trajectory. He's not
the same guy he was, But you got a guy
who could play the position for not that much.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
You gotta make that move.

Speaker 2 (04:28):
Yeah, but the perception of Russell Wilson has changed. You
said it right before he went on the air. He
was one Marshawn Lynch runaway from being a back to
back super Bowl champion. He went from superstar Seattle to
didn't work out in Denver, Ben Steelers, now the Giants,
the Hall, the Mister Unlimited and the Cringey stuff like,
and it all happened so fast.

Speaker 1 (04:48):
Oh my goodness, what a what a change.

Speaker 2 (04:51):
So this is his last turn, and we're seeing live
coverage as we speak. He's live at a news conference
in New York for the Giants. So that story broke yesterday,
you had a day to process it. I'm glad you
said New York because my first dumb question of the
day has nothing to dow with Lebron.

Speaker 1 (05:10):
We're gonna get there.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
We're gonna get to Jimmy Butler and jose Canseco's in
the news for a funny reason, and you said pooka
the kua. One of our good pals are regular on
the show. We'll get to all that. But my wife
is cooking something for dinner tonight. Everyone grib a pen,
Danny G. I would say, I'm everyone grib a pen.
I want you to write down this word because I
want to hear all of you pronounce it. My wife's

(05:32):
a Southern Texan. I'm from New York Covido and spot
it from Jersey. Dan Bayer's a Midwest dude. Write down
this word, and I want to hear you pronounce it.

Speaker 1 (05:41):
Okay, m a n man I? Oh? Sorry, good right?

Speaker 2 (05:49):
M a n i co tti an Italian dish. My
wife is preparing tonight. How well, hold on, let's go
with Ia, Samuel. How do you pronounce it that meal?
I could pronounce it like one of the know.

Speaker 5 (06:03):
How do you say? I say manicotti, Danny J. How
do you say it the way my grandma said it?
She said manquote.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
Okay, everyone's saying manicuote, Damn Bayer. I would say manicotte,
not e.

Speaker 2 (06:16):
But hey, hey, oh, I pronounced it the same way
Polly Walnuts pronounce it.

Speaker 1 (06:21):
Yeah, g.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
G C like manic God. Spot's gotta flow to it.

Speaker 6 (06:29):
If you're gonna say the Italian manicotti, you bounce the
t's manacotti.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
Or if you're like an East Coast Italian guy, a
man of God with the G like my wife said,
nota making man akati.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
And I just think that nothing wrong with that.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
To me, it just sounds so weird being an East
Coast guy making manakati. Are there any regional words that
just drive you bonkers? Yeah, there's a ton of them.
People have different ways of saying all sorts of things.
It's like when your wife for sir, and people say pop.
I'm like, who's this pop? I know it's not a mispronunciation.
That's so to bro, you're my tennis sneakers, I'm like, Jimmy.

Speaker 1 (07:08):
Connor, can I tell you that's the one. I don't
want to harm on this. Those are sneakers.

Speaker 2 (07:12):
There's too much to get to. But you just nailed
my number one answer on the board. So either we
share a brain or on the same track. When my
wife calls my kids sneakers like ben Emmy, grab your
tennis shoes, I'm like.

Speaker 1 (07:23):
Tennis shoes? What are they?

Speaker 5 (07:25):
Everygraph arenaking around shoes for sneaking, but they're sneakers.

Speaker 1 (07:30):
If I got a pair of Jordan's, what am I
wearing now?

Speaker 2 (07:32):
Are much like managott and mana COTTI it's just I
think it's a regional thing. These these little top dunks,
that these are sneakers, These are not tennis shoes. Are
those are weakers because those are pandace People hate pandace weakers.

Speaker 4 (07:47):
Seeing spot, I was going to say some people, some
people say supper.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
That's like my mother in law and father in law
who just left. They were here for like a week,
yourself visiting every night, you grandkids ready for supper, and
every night I'm like supper.

Speaker 1 (08:08):
You're a product of your environment.

Speaker 2 (08:10):
Not to state the obvious, because I probably would pronounce
it mana coatti if I wasn't surrounded by a bunch
of sausage fingered botch of go.

Speaker 5 (08:17):
Loops growing up growing up in Jersey, there's not a
lot of Italians and I, I'll be honest, So it's
it's a fair assessment. It's just a their regional differences.
Is actually capa cole yeah, or like a nice brazole.
There's also another dish.

Speaker 1 (08:34):
I thought Ben Meller invented that.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
But what type of cheese is on top of a
slice of pizza?

Speaker 1 (08:41):
I was say, of course, if I was a child,
if I was fifteen years old, say the name? How
do you say? There? We go? Thank you? He reads
like an Internet recipe. Mozareil to be authentic, I have
to s Freshay. I'm just trying to.

Speaker 7 (09:03):
Make a point. He just wants you to play along, Sam.
So it's like when somebody asks you how much does
this cost? And if they want to show you what
a deal they got, you say, oh, five hundred dollars
and you gone nine you say twenty bucks.

Speaker 1 (09:18):
Just play along.

Speaker 2 (09:19):
I was Sam as a guy. When you say Sam,
if a genie granted you wishes, Sam Weld, I would
want more wishes.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
Yeah. Oh you can smile home smiling.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
You gotta put a little quiver, like like John Travolta
when you say.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
Fresh freshy.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
So this is all regional differences again, Rich and I
and Spot. We're off from the East coast, so of
course we're gonna lean.

Speaker 1 (09:48):
Can I wrap this with one point from a listener? Sure? Please? Yeah.

Speaker 4 (09:52):
So I get a call in the studio lines the
other day and they said, Look, they were nice about it.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
Rich. Tell Rich it's.

Speaker 4 (09:58):
Gonzaga, not Gonzaga because they're the zare.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
It's not Nevada, it's Nevada.

Speaker 2 (10:05):
You know a lot of that happens too when you're
not from the area. Right Like when before we first
moved out here, we would say Cali and people like,
no one says Cali. We would say San fran and
then all of a sudden people say like, no one says.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
No One Frisco. Yeah yeah.

Speaker 2 (10:20):
So and you know what, being from Jersey, nobody says Joysey.
I've lived there my whole life. I never heard one
person says yeah. She may say she says coffee, but
she doesn't say Joysey. Anyway, It's all regional differences. Listen,
I could tie it in. Get used to it, Sierra,
get used to it. Russell Wilson. Sierra's from Texas. Russell

(10:40):
Wilson not in New Yorker, played college at Wisconsin, was
in the you know, Pacific Northwest, then Pittsburgh. So you know,
you mean, Russell Wilson is gonna have to say he's
mister unlimited.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
Moving forward, Mister Unlimited, get the.

Speaker 2 (10:59):
Maddie, mister mister mister unlimited.

Speaker 1 (11:08):
No, he just says, mister Lein, he doesn't.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
So he has to adjust again once again, and like
he posted on social media, he's been there before, starting
all over again. But man, that's a crazy roller coaster
of a life. Family and you know, a wife of
note like Sierra. I'm not saying it's a big adjustment,
but hey, welcome to the Big Apple Russell Wilson. It's
moving to New York again. Not not for everyone, so

(11:39):
it should be an interesting thing because he's a very
personable guy. Awkward and cringey as many have said, but
the New York media and Russell Wilson to be determined. Yeah,
it's a fun storyline. I mean, if you're in it
for the storyline, which we are. I can't wait if
he blends and all of a sudden he's you know,
you know, throwing out first pitches at the Yankees game,
He's going to Broadway shows. What if he pulls in

(12:00):
Aaron Rodgers successfully?

Speaker 6 (12:02):
Yeah that worked. Uh what is that word they say
in Pittsburgh? Is it yin's which means like you all
or like everyone? And now he's going from Yians to
say use guys, use guys. They use guys, use guys,
use guys, need to block.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
That's how we started the press comps.

Speaker 2 (12:17):
He goes, I want to welcome, use guys, use guys.
So hey, enjoy your tailor ham and your pizza. Russell
Wilson with the fresh mood set now with giants. Let
me let me quiz you real quick. A little more
experience with the state of Pennsylvania. If you go into
anywhere in the state of Pennsylvania you order a lagger,
what kind of beer are you going to be getting?

Speaker 1 (12:34):
Well, Sam is Northern Pennsylvania or state Yingling? There you go,
give me a lagger. Yingling was my ant.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
If you go to Philadelphia, home of the Super Bowl
champion Eagles, if you get a cheese steak, how do
you tell.

Speaker 1 (12:51):
Them you want it with cheese?

Speaker 5 (12:54):
Give me the whiz whiz wit wizz whizz whiz with onions.

Speaker 2 (12:59):
Yeah, whiz had onions and you get the works. Well, hey,
there go, Russell Wilson, New York. I just figured when
my wife just texted me, well little voice message I'm
making Maniicati. I'm like, now you can't It may great
your ears, but you can't blame her for that great
your ears.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
Did you just make a cheese joke? I did very
well done.

Speaker 2 (13:19):
But you know it's it's just how it's really said.
No doubt, no diggnity, no doubt. How do you say
sure bet Sherbert? I would say shirt Bert, but I
feel like that's wrong. It's sure bet? But who said
my mom? Sure bet?

Speaker 1 (13:35):
Sure?

Speaker 8 (13:35):
Really?

Speaker 1 (13:36):
Yeah? Do you say crank calls or prank calls? Prank
prank calls?

Speaker 2 (13:43):
Frank will say maybe it's generational more than regional, but
more A lot of older folks say crank crank maybe
because my mom so old she used to crank the telephone.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
I don't know that old. I don't know she is.

Speaker 2 (13:58):
He's old, you know. And interestingly enough regional differences. I'll
wrap it up with one thing that has probably killed
all of our spring diets. Have you guys finished all
your Girl Scout cookies? No?

Speaker 1 (14:08):
I still got some thin mince in the freezer. Still
got a few.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
Did you know there are two Girl Scale cookie factories
and based on where you live in the country, they're different.
Is that mind blasting to everyone here? Did you know
this like there are just two distributors, like the two distributors,
so your thin mints in on the Minnesota may look
different than the ones in California. Everything tag Alongs and

(14:35):
Samoa's there are two different factories, so they are slightly
different and called slightly different things.

Speaker 7 (14:41):
I thought of so that with Doctor Pepper, like if
because Doctor Pepper isn't coke and isn't Pepsi, it's its
own company, but if it's bottled by a Pepsi distributor,
it's in a different bottle, then it would be if
it was from them.

Speaker 1 (14:53):
Look at that distributor. I didn't know that they do that.
For what is it's about with mayonnaise too? Oh? Yeah,
Hellman's and Best Foods. It's like West of the Rockies
actually says it on the jars.

Speaker 2 (15:04):
Do you have Hellman's mail or be Best Foods?

Speaker 1 (15:07):
It's like Carls and hard parties. Yeah, so look at that.

Speaker 2 (15:11):
Sorry for the ridiculous conversation, but that's where ad D
Radio brings you. You would see r like I said,
when you see Russell Wilson as he said it back
in New York, it doesn't make you think of those
regional differences. Now he has to say Mona got to
fit in. Yeah, he can't be going to someplace in Hoboken,
New Jersey, ordering the Madakati. I gotta tell you, man,
like you know, I'm half Mexican, and when I go

(15:35):
and my sister's very Jersey American, when I go get
Mexican with her and she orders taquitos.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
I want to vomit.

Speaker 2 (15:43):
I'm like, can you put a little like just a
little like taquito in it? She's like, I'll have some taquitos.
I'm like, can you at least pretend like you have
a little bit of a mire about you, a little
case a d well taquitos? Before we get into Lebron,
which I feel like, there's so many great things he
said on it was a great interview. You got to

(16:04):
give credit work credits due McAfee had a great sit
down with Lebron. And there's one particular thing Lebron talked
about that we got to dissect a little bit real
or offensive or real offensive. Listen something Lebron said. I
feel it was so on the money. I got Lebron's
back to something he said I couldn't agree with more.
We'll get to that awkward returns, Jimmy Butler's style all that.

(16:26):
But my last question about the New York Russell Wilson deal.
You lived on the East Coast most of your life.
You'd been out in La now for a while. But
when you think of that local New York media, sports radio,
sports TV. People still get newspapers in New York sometimes, like,
do you think the local New York press is going
to embrace this?

Speaker 1 (16:47):
Salzburg is gonna get him?

Speaker 2 (16:48):
Russ Salzburg water Wolf is really uh what do you think?

Speaker 1 (16:52):
Do you think, Russ?

Speaker 2 (16:53):
You think because the expectation you're coming off of three
and fourteen season, they can't expect this guy to light
it up and be a play off team.

Speaker 1 (17:00):
Yay.

Speaker 2 (17:00):
But I'll tell you what, as we watched a live coverage,
unless this is a real.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
A lot, but yeah, it looks like he's really.

Speaker 2 (17:07):
Having fun up there. He's smiling a lot, looks real personable.
I think New York gravitates toward that sort of personality,
Like he looks like he's having fun up there. It
looks it looks visually really great. Right now, we don't
know what he's saying, but it looks like body language wise,
it looks like he's having a great time up there.

(17:28):
And I would imagine New York's embracing this moment, so
we'll see. All right, well, hey, we're gonna talk Lebron
coming up. We got a lot of fun to get
to on today's Cavino on rich Selle. Could someone please
during the break, has Malik Neighbors commented on this. I'm
not saying he has, but he has spoken on social
media in the past. I'm curious if he's positively or
vaguely referenced the Russell wil Wilson signing, because now that's

(17:51):
Malik Neighbors, who was like under the radar sick last year,
Like you know, because he was on such a bunk team,
you forget what a great year.

Speaker 1 (17:59):
Malie Neighbors had.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
So curious what he thinks going to Russell Wilson now
is his go to guy as he continues to emerge
into one of the best receivers. It all comes down
to how he plays. Like him and Bruce Beck may
be chumming it up right now, but I'm telling you
it's just a matter of how he plays. He could
be having fun today, they could bury him tomorrow if

(18:22):
he stinks it up. Man true, double true. All right, Hey,
coming up again, Lebron James, Jimmy Butler, Jose Canseco, A
bunch of random fun stories will dissect here on Coveno
and Rich Hank tip tires matter.

Speaker 1 (18:34):
They're the only part of your vehicle that touches the
row ad. How do you say? Road?

Speaker 2 (18:37):
Is that regional row ad a funny word, one of
those funny words that can limit and they're responsible for
everything acceleration, breaking, steering and handling. Tread confidently on new

Speaker 2 (19:49):
Yeah, sorry, Charmie Murphy, I was having too much fun.
I just played the dumbest joke on I was. I'll
post it after today's show.

Speaker 1 (19:57):
We'll post it.

Speaker 2 (19:58):
All I'll say is that, Uh, I think he felt
the setup coming, but he didn't know what it was.

Speaker 1 (20:03):
No idea.

Speaker 2 (20:05):
I got Mike with a pretty good one. I'm not
gonna give you the punchline, but I'll tell you the joke.
I asked Mike, who runs his place? You know, Mike,
he looks like uh, Bruce willis a little bit Mike
looks like an older Stone Cult Yeah, Mike. I asked
him if he was going to Sawcon this year. He
was like, saw Con was that and I said, you're
going to Sawcon and the punchline is uh is a

(20:28):
very juvenile one. But oh it felt so good when
I got with it. Oh okay, yes, yes, yes, but
we also got Sam with something else. Let me take

Speaker 1 (21:40):
You know the kid that said that is thirty five
years old? Though?

Speaker 2 (21:42):
That kid, yeah, he's he's one hundred and thirty five.
That's how long it's been. Well, think about it, he Cavino.
I know Kivino's thinking. Kavino always thinks a lot of
clout comes with those things, Like you probably think, man,
that guy's probably got so much booty. Be Go kid
a club and he's like Lebron James kid and he
gets so much attention. Remember like fifteen years ago, the

(22:05):
little kid that was like Lebron James, I bet I
love I love Turtles. Kid is probably the coolest kid
in town. He's probably the king of the campus wherever
he is. Right now, how about the apparently kid Apparently
kid is apparently apparently apparently Apparently he gets more booty
than all of you combined.

Speaker 1 (22:23):
Because he does a video with apparently kid grown up.
Now I haven't seen that. It's not as fun. No,
now he's just apparently man.

Speaker 2 (22:31):
Actually, to really give this story some truth, you remember
the Newman Numa kid in the early two thousands. He
had him on our show and I was like, dude,
you must have got so much action.

Speaker 1 (22:46):
Back in the day when that was the thing. Huh.

Speaker 2 (22:48):
And he's like, no, not at all. I'm like nine,
Like it was the height of the early days of YouTube,
and can we know?

Speaker 1 (22:56):
Really thought.

Speaker 2 (22:57):
I was like, he must be getting like more than
the average y'allo he wants to be getting.

Speaker 1 (23:01):
So much booty, you're the guy with millions of views.
My he and the guy's like, oh, in fucked none
at all.

Speaker 4 (23:06):
I'm like, come on, Gary brolsmah goes to show you
still gotta have game.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
That's the truth. It doesn't matter if you have a
video that we get here, Rich.

Speaker 2 (23:14):
Why'd you bring this up? I don't know, but I
do know this. Lebron James said something.

Speaker 1 (23:20):
Lebron Jays, there you go.

Speaker 2 (23:22):
He said something during his interview with Pat McAfee that
I couldn't agree with more.

Speaker 1 (23:29):
Samuel l. Johnson, Johnson prabiwah hit the club.

Speaker 4 (23:34):
You're trying to tell me Giannis wouldn't be able to
play an NBA game in the seventies.

Speaker 1 (23:40):
He wouldn't be able to do y.

Speaker 7 (23:43):
Jannis answer the Koupo would have two hundred and fifty
points in a game in a seventeen what's hundred and fifty?

Speaker 1 (23:53):
Now? What does he mean? Yannis is seventy years old.
I think.

Speaker 2 (23:58):
Lebron James, while of course exaggerating with two hundred and
fifty points, I don't think it's crazy to think that
a guy like.

Speaker 1 (24:06):
Yannis we forget.

Speaker 2 (24:08):
I don't subscribe to and love these conversation of this
guy from this generation versus this guy versus j I
always hated the all Tyson versus Alla. Yeah. You know
why I hate it not because I think it's an
unwinnable debate, because I hate the reality of I think

(24:32):
the newer generation wins ninety percent of the time, with
the exception of an MJ with everyone, which everyone's convinced
is the ultimate competitor of all time. We just evolve
athletically as a society. I'm not saying socially, I'm not
saying I'm not saying, uh work ethic. I'm just saying
we evolve. When we were kids, Lawrence Taylor. What made

(24:55):
Lawrence Taylor special? No one was that big and that fast.
It's like the Bay We talked about it recently. The
dude was what six two two fifteen but six'?

Speaker 1 (25:04):
Two was? It six to? Two six two two? Fifteen
at that, time he was like a, giant fat, guy fat.
GUY i weigh that about a bad Weekend, Nowaday But.

Speaker 4 (25:14):
Rich put the body types aside for a. Second don't
you think there were some nastier athletes Like Jack tatum
And Ronnie?

Speaker 1 (25:21):
Lott that there?

Speaker 2 (25:22):
Were BUT i genuinely think athleticism evolves over, time which
is Why olympic records are always, broken which is why speed.
Continues lawrence terror, example WHAT i was gonna say was
back then he was a like a beast among. Boys
every team has a linebacker that has the size and
strength of A Lawrence. Taylor i'm not saying they're better

(25:44):
Than Lawrence. Taylor every baseball player is over six two
and over two. Fifteen for the most, part every baseball
Player Nolan ryan was special because he threw heat one
hundred miles an.

Speaker 1 (25:53):
Hour every teams.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
Have middle relievers that hit, three uh you, know three
figures hundred on the. Gun some guy out your bullpen
go on softball two over one hundred miles. Brow, yeah
the softball girl throw seventy em mels an hour softball
equaling like one hundred and ten baseball point IS i
Think Lebron james is, right and it does feel disrespectful

(26:16):
to the older. Generation but if you go through any,
industry the industry has evolved where the current person doing
it is more effective at it than the previous. Person
look at the ball handling skills of anyone in THE
nba now dribbling between their legs. Casually back in the
seventies and, eighties learning to dribble between your legs was.

Speaker 4 (26:37):
Special twelve year olds do it, now but they didn't
travel as much in the.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
Eighties, YEAH i.

Speaker 2 (26:43):
Know the ultimate sides of the argument are you going
to always be, like, well it's a softer game in
this and that everyone's just Playing and As Draymond green,
Said i'm just playing under the rules that are out.
There he's also an international, star and basketball back then
wasn't as international as it is. Now so you didn't
Have greek freaks in THE nba in the. Seventies at
six foot, eleven two forty, three you, know you had

(27:05):
some big. Dudes obviously it's THE, nba but built like that,
Guy give me a. Break so, YEAH i Mean lebron's
state in the, obvious you, know in my, opinion but
it's not a fair.

Speaker 1 (27:17):
Assessment it just.

Speaker 2 (27:18):
Isn't they didn't have they didn't have the workout routines
and the resources a current player, has and it wasn't.

Speaker 1 (27:26):
Global to, Me it's just always such a tired.

Speaker 2 (27:30):
Argument BUT i do think it's always easy to have
these debates and they're eye, Rolling BUT i always lean
towards whoever's doing it now is probably doing it, best
just based on evolution or. Different you can't say the
same about music. Necessarily my music is. Subjective it's an,

(27:52):
art right like artistry is. Different athleticism could be, rated
it could be. Measured you can't measure. Art it's a
matter of for the, time like that's really what it.

Speaker 1 (28:04):
Is for The you, know they were great for their, time.

Speaker 4 (28:08):
But not every stat was recorded back in the Day
rich so it's also a little harder to compare.

Speaker 1 (28:13):
Eras But they.

Speaker 2 (28:14):
Also didn't play against every ethnicity and, color because there
was a time where it was, like, man you're the
greatest baseball, player but we don't Allow latinos or black
people to.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
Play, well, well you're really that great, Then.

Speaker 2 (28:26):
SO i don't, KNOW i just look at it all,
right look at our, Industry DANNY. J and this is
with all due respect to the Cousin brewcey's And Wolfman
jack's And Casey casem's of the world and all the
old school. Legends but when you really break down with
Guy rick With's Rick rick u, Oh Rick d's go,
yeah good one.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
Yeah Rick chase in The Bay area in the, nineties
Now RICK.

Speaker 2 (28:48):
D but think about all those old time people on our.
Industry what did they. Do they connected with their local
audience because it was no, YouTube there was no social,
media there was no CABLE. Tv they were the radio
is a big. Deal so all they had to be was, like,
hey it's your Cousin, brucey here's The beatles on one
on one boy, one or have a cool like.

Speaker 4 (29:08):
Rhyme, hey BUT i DON'T i don't know If i'd
agree with that all the way rich because they had
a lot of funny.

Speaker 1 (29:13):
Bits they did a lot of crank.

Speaker 4 (29:16):
Calls, YEAH i mean there's a song like there was
still a lot of artistry involved in that style of
radio back in the.

Speaker 2 (29:23):
Way here's the, thing here's what you didn't. Know because
radio has. Everything they had to tape with razor, blades
you didn't REALLY i, MEAN i guess you could say
you tuned in for, them but you tuned in for
the music because you didn't really know a lot about the.
People you're more intrigued on the mystery of who they.
Were you don't know anything about the people you're listening.
To what do you know about Wolf Man jack other
than he had a?

Speaker 1 (29:42):
Goatee and you're, Right you're. Right they didn't have to be, influencing.

Speaker 2 (29:46):
Right SO i, MEAN i would say that would be
the difference now that people you listen to now you're
probably listening to it know a little something about it
because you connect with. Them because you connect, them you know,
them you see them on social, media you know their, lives,
Right like A Bobby, BONE i know what he's up
to BECAUSE i see him on social media all the.
Time back, then you're, LIKE i don't even know what
the guy looks, like so there was some mystery building the.

(30:07):
Intrigue it's just really tough to Say rich because you,
know things were just.

Speaker 1 (30:11):
Different it's hard to compare it really.

Speaker 4 (30:13):
Is there was a magic With Casey caseum and some
of the legendary Dj, yeah.

Speaker 2 (30:17):
It was only, Magic danny G And i'm not trying
to be the guy that ruins the magic tricks On,
instagram like.

Speaker 1 (30:23):
You're about to right.

Speaker 2 (30:24):
Now but it's, like All Casey casem did was say
that was number. Twenty he's number. Nineteen that's all he.
Did But i'm. Sorry he was also the voice Of,
shaggy but he connected with millions of listeners.

Speaker 1 (30:36):
Because no other. Options there were no other Better, yeah
there were local, options and he was a national.

Speaker 2 (30:42):
Treasurer heary question Dedicate Casey. Casem that was lin Know
richie all night. Long oh it's tough for your long distance.
Dedication jessica, SAYS i miss my Friend Bobby. Request this
is a hot take coming from the guy who hosts
The pop. Two, Curiously rich takes high offense to the

(31:03):
fact that he's not better Than Casey, kase.

Speaker 4 (31:05):
Who also kisses The casey kse countdown. Sign, yeah he's
in the production, studio every dingy, ye he did it.

Speaker 1 (31:11):
Right All i'm saying is that we evolve in. Everything we.

Speaker 2 (31:15):
Evolve radio DJs evolved into talk show host, podcasters more
relatable relevant.

Speaker 1 (31:21):
Stuff we've seen private parts.

Speaker 2 (31:22):
With Howard stern when he had that big revelation, like
oh maybe If i'm just, myself we. Evolved sports, evolves all.
Right take an industry totally away from sports or music
or something like. That if you're a real estate, agent
you don't think a real estate agent, now with their
mental capacities and the tools they, know could outsell any
real estate agent from twenty five years. Ago damn, man

(31:45):
again we were comparing apples and. Oranges let me hear you,
say keep your feet on the ground and keep your
cha for the. Start keep your feet on the, ground
reaching for this rich. Tools the tools are. Different that
doesn't necessarily make it. Better like a lot of radio,
stations AND i don't mean to open up the curtain,
here but there's a lot of voice tracking that's gone
on the past how many years that's not better in.

Speaker 4 (32:05):
Broadcasting it's not. Better it's just the technology made that.

Speaker 2 (32:09):
Happen maybe it's just sports rich because a lot of,
times you lose the magic along the way you use the,
Character you lose what really built that.

Speaker 1 (32:17):
Industry you lose the heart of. IT i hate to
break it to.

Speaker 2 (32:20):
You all the shows we watch growing, up, hm we
have so many fond memories that have great, laughs but they'll.

Speaker 1 (32:25):
Stink, well that's.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
True like you think you could sit down and Watch
Growing pains and be like that was a great. Show
you think you can WATCH, balki don't be. Ridiculous that was.
Trash you're telling me some well written show On netflix
Or hulu isn't better writing than a too close for
comfort give me a freaking.

Speaker 1 (32:42):
BREAK i think it's give me a, break not a great.

Speaker 2 (32:44):
SHOW i, think, uh it's industry by, industry it's all
going to be a little. Different and when you're talking,
sports a lot of it comes to sports evolving into
an international. Game like we, said certain games and the
conditioning of these. Players, YEAH i, Agree giannis would dominate
in a whole different level if he was playing some

(33:05):
skinny ass dude from the seventies who worked out with a,
bullward some white dude that dribbled in front of.

Speaker 1 (33:09):
Him, YEAH i agree with.

Speaker 2 (33:11):
YOU i agree well with that SAID i don't care
what you. Say Dan buyer is a better update than
anyone from the.

Speaker 1 (33:15):
Past, WELL i.

Speaker 7 (33:16):
Don't know about, that but you you mentioned too close for,
comfort and that's a little too close for, comfort.

Speaker 1 (33:21):
Mister Rush i'll tell you.

Speaker 7 (33:23):
What it did go up another level When monroe came
into the, fold that's for. Sure there's Also Ted knight
always wearing the college. Sweatshirt he would wear a different college.
SWEATSHIRT i got a trivia question for. You what was
the name of his, Comic Cosmic. Cow i've watched an
episode probably three weeks, ago ended. Up i've gone to

(33:45):
the house In San.

Speaker 2 (33:46):
FRANCISCO a lot of people go to The Full, house
AND i didn't know you were that Into Jim bullock
Loved Too.

Speaker 7 (33:52):
Close For comfort went it's, Gray now it's. GRAY i
could show you, pictures but in THE tv show it was.

Speaker 1 (33:59):
Red. Wow all.

Speaker 7 (34:00):
Right Russell wilson is wearing, Blue Big blue of The
New York.

Speaker 8 (34:03):
Giants expect get started and coming here and be rated
rock and roll every. Day to get a. LEAD i
think this team's really looking for somebody to lead them
in every way in terms of the.

Speaker 1 (34:12):
Process you, know in the.

Speaker 8 (34:13):
Off, season during the, season our habits and our thought
process and how we, create you, know a great winning,
culture and how do we continue to establish that and
to really build on all the things that we do
well and the things that we continue to need to.

Speaker 7 (34:26):
Do it expects to be the starter, NOW jj McCarthy
expects to be the starter Of. Minnesota that's the message
from HIS Gm Quasiadolpha, mensa who confirmed today that the
team did talk With Aaron rodgers and wouldn't rule out
the possibility Of rogers maybe joining the team later on
this offseason if he remains a free. Agent But Dolpha
mensa said today as for, McCarthy, quote that's the outcome we,

(34:48):
want and that's the outcome we're headed. Towards end quote
when asked if McCarthy is THEIR qb. One Camino's yankees
became the first team in baseball to crack the eight
billion dollar valuation. Mark forbes says that The yankee his
value is at eight point two billion dollars entering the
season that starts. Tomorrow bucks won't Have jannis And Teta
koopo tonight against The. Nuggets celtics Say Jason tatum upgraded

(35:08):
to questionable fortnight's game against The. Suns, guys back to,
you what's.

Speaker 1 (35:12):
Up With jiannis right?

Speaker 2 (35:13):
Now just a foot's foot, Issue but so he'd still
score two hundred and fifty points against these.

Speaker 1 (35:18):
Bumps seventies maybe more rest But dann buy one of
my favorite fun.

Speaker 2 (35:22):
Facts as you, said The yankees are valuated at eight million,
dollars the steal of the, millennium the steal of the last.
Century When steinbrender bought The yankees for ten million dollars
in the, seventies which was a, LOT i, know but
still like ten million dollars in nineteen seventy, THREE i.

Speaker 7 (35:39):
Believe so you'd have asked me how Much steinbredder bought
The yankees, for.

Speaker 1 (35:43):
Well just, kidding five.

Speaker 2 (35:46):
DOLLARS i thank, You Dan, Bayer thank YOU. dB so
think about, it you, know Is lebron speaking? Sense because
of course Everything lebron says is going to be speculated,
upon and it's getting a little backlash as. Well let's
make that, clear because it's like he's punching down on previous.

Speaker 1 (36:02):
Generations in a.

Speaker 2 (36:03):
Way he, is but he's also being very honest and.

Speaker 1 (36:07):
That may be a tough pill to swallow for some.

Speaker 2 (36:09):
People but it's also true he's a different type of
specimen that didn't exist in the, seventies not in that,
way not in this.

Speaker 1 (36:17):
Condition, True.

Speaker 2 (36:18):
Bob you know, What we'll take your, feedback your phone
calls Next. Wednesday having some fun can being on retch
right here On Fox Sports.

Speaker 1 (36:24):
Radio, Man i'll.

Speaker 2 (36:30):
Tell you, What no one's as good as Led zeppelin
UNTIL i heard audio say you play this, one which
is very Led zeppelin. Esque The evolution Of, life The
evolution of. Sports lebron causing some controversy again saying That
giannis would have scored two hundred and fifty points a

(36:50):
game in the.

Speaker 1 (36:51):
Seventies and you.

Speaker 2 (36:54):
Know we're really basing that on physique, though just on
how dominant of a best man he. IS i, mean
his game is also next, level and he's a champion
and all, that but we're really just looking at him, thinking,
well he would dominate these. Dudes lebron himself is a
more dominant looking figure Than Michael, jordan And Michael jordan

(37:14):
would School lebron in my, OPINION i. Disagree but, anyway Really,
lebron as far as like a basketball, game ABSOLUTELY i
don't THINK i think he's more.

Speaker 1 (37:22):
Physically we never physically.

Speaker 4 (37:25):
INTIMIDATED i was gonna, say we've never seen a guy
Like lebron that big and strong run.

Speaker 2 (37:29):
Downhill, yeah Imagine Karl malone Had lebron's. Athleticism that's the
closest thing you can think of. It there's a lot
of skinny dudes in THE. Nba not everyone was built
Like Carl malone back in the. Day i'm just saying
The Jordan lebron debate will be one you will never
hear on the. Show but what comes, up, though is
that generational. Conversation And lebron when he was with McAfee

(37:50):
said that a guy Like, giannis he, Said giannis would
score two hundred and fifty points a game.

Speaker 1 (37:54):
Now and my.

Speaker 2 (37:55):
Thought Was lebron's right in that so many parts of our,
world not just for anything you do for a, living we've,
evolved people come up with, better more innovative, ideas to
the point where it's really hard to compare generations BECAUSE
i think the answer ninety nine percent of the time
is it's being done better. Now, yeah, again the game's.

(38:16):
Changed Is Joe rogan better Than Howard stern in his?
Prime the game is? Different, no that's that's a great.
Example are you a better countdown host Than Casey kaysem?
DIFFERENT i know that's art THOUGH i thought about that
after we were saying The Casey kasem. Thing that's, art
so it's hard to. Criticize but NOW i know that's
WHY i SAID i thought about it. More but any

(38:37):
industry you could think, of there have been. Innovations that's.
It let's say hi To andre And. Jackson what's Up?

Speaker 1 (38:46):
Andre what's going?

Speaker 3 (38:48):
On?

Speaker 1 (38:48):
Guys what's? Up? Man, Hey i'll listen to to y'all
talk About. Lebrun lebrun is, right, Man he's absolutely. Right
IS I three guys.

Speaker 8 (39:00):
You can say that we never seen before.

Speaker 2 (39:02):
Even though he pop you got, It cavin The, ring
we had never seen a god seventh foot Like kevin The.

Speaker 5 (39:09):
Writ but your pop, no he, never he.

Speaker 1 (39:12):
Never really do.

Speaker 8 (39:13):
Nothing so but we haven't seen a guy like KILL i,
know you.

Speaker 2 (39:18):
Know WHAT i, mean the guy that could, score like
a guy that can stoppable in any era and when
he's in his own known better at times Than. Katie
you know? What he got me thinking of a meme
that was like one of those fun social media. Debates
could one Like seal six team take out The Roman
empire if it had today's.

Speaker 1 (39:35):
Weapons you can't compare.

Speaker 2 (39:38):
Generations it's fun to, speculate BUT i mean The Roman.
Empire IF i, said can you no sender and sealed team?
Six how many day one a week do you think
of The Roman? Empire by the, way.

Speaker 1 (39:49):
Don't have been thinking about a lot? Lately The.

Speaker 2 (39:52):
PYRAMIDS i think about them at least all that fake
speculation of or is it? Real of what's underneath the?
Pyramids that's been on my mind way more THAN i
like to. Admit every Day i'm, thinking, like.

Speaker 1 (40:03):
What what is down? There what was? Here so go,
Ahead Roman?

Speaker 2 (40:08):
Empire IF i, said how Many lebrons do you think
it would take to defeat The roman Emper one time
we had a great Debate danny G let me Get
danny g our. Favorite want to wrap it, up maybe
a decade, ago not Justin bieber, now like Teenage biber
when he was Like.

Speaker 1 (40:22):
Bay he Bebe.

Speaker 2 (40:22):
Bay he'd be like floppy headed Teenage. Bieber how many
do you think you could beat? Up at the same,
Time cavino used to swear that he could be up
like eight. Bibers, OH i, said eight bibers is my.
LIMIT i, said you can't beat up. Three you, KNOW
i could be up. Eight they could all attack bees.

Speaker 5 (40:38):
Overwhelmed By bieber's, okay just like This Seal team six
would be overwhelmed By roman soldiers after a.

Speaker 2 (40:43):
While it's like the Game Kung. FU i would have
just kicked them all in the face as they came.

Speaker 4 (40:47):
In if that bubble Gum bieber started singing very, loudly,
Though i'd turn and run the other.

Speaker 1 (40:51):
Direction it's A popeye Versus Ali baba's forty. Thieves he
just Goes.

Speaker 2 (40:55):
Yeah generational, differences, guys you're feedback At covino And.
