But I hope you had a great Thursday night, a
Mavericks sort of Thursday Maverick Maverick. MAV's taking on Boston
(01:48):
next week, Thursday, the sixth. Today's the last of May,
so go out with a bang. Let's have a great June.
And thanks again for hanging out with us. Yeah, Amka
getting all loud with Snoop Dog yesterday. Let me tell you,
Dandy G hit us up with the perfect text last night, like, yeah,
this sucks. We all wanted so badly for the Tea
(02:09):
Wolves to make this a series. And you know. I'll
tell you, even Anthony Edwards was in awe of how
great Luca was shooting and playing and just dumbfounded staring
at the greatness that we're witnessing. And even he said
afterward he had a lot of fun getting to this
point and hoping to be back and going further next year.
(02:31):
I'm sorry, MAV's just outplayed the man. They're just that
good right now and Lucas that unstoppable. So I don't
really hate on the Timberwolves that much. Well, I've got
to say it wasn't Danny. Was you with the great
text things? Well, he just wrote, game is ass. It
was as I mean it was. It was an ass game.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
I sent you a copy of your best of and
I said, this is a hundred times better than the
game right.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Now, that's what you wrote. Okay, well it might agree
with it. When I say ass, I mean like deflated
jack ass. I don't mean like sweet ass. I mean
that game was ass. Oh no, you're that game was
like oh zempic ass, Yeah, like ozempic Like yeah, what
happened to your ass? Ass? Yeah that was not a
good one, but hey, congrats to the MAVs. Congrats to
the Celtics. In fact, first time, I mean only the
(03:14):
second time in the last twenty something years that the
Eastern Conference team is favored in the NBA Finals. By
the way, the last time the MAVs were here was
with Jason Kidd, Right, So props, what a squad. Let's go.
I'm excited for it. Now we're going to start with
something random. We'll get to the sports. We'll get to
the Mets new secret handshake or a little celebration, and
(03:38):
of course every Friday here on the show, what to
look for in the world of sports and entertainment weekend hobnobbing,
what you need to watch, what you can't miss. We'll
get to that. Yeah, the Moron of the Day award
is going to be presented to this dude and it
has to do with a zoom call in court. Oh
it is this a new segment Moron of the Day?
(03:58):
I could get down with that. A funny story about Metaworld,
Peace and Circuit City from back of the day. We've
been putting that off of very funny. I got to
ask though, to start the show. I'm doing my prep
like we all do, going through the sports websites. Well,
our prep is much different than everybody else's prep. Our
prep is scrolling through social media and see if there's
(04:21):
anything juicy. Honestly, really is. It's a social media scroll
all day, all night, and I'm just making notes. And
you know you Danny g and I I was Sam
dan Byer. We're sending each other articles or clips here
and there. Oh, this could be good, this could be good.
I saw some crap. I think the New York Post
put it out and it's just a random question. I
think it's very telling about someone. It was a study
(04:42):
of how often do you change your bed sheets? And
I think the answer is there are clues if I
could look at you and you have beat ass, busted,
dirty sneakers, I'm assuming once a month, if you're lucky.
Oh that's our sign. Is that like my theory that
if you your girl with really bad fingernails and toenails,
that other stuff may be not kept nicely. That's a
(05:07):
Rich Davis theory, That is what I'm saying. So you're
saying you could look at someone and tell me if
they wash their bit sheets enough. Yeah, there's a saying
in Spanish, I'd have to ask my mom or my titho,
what it was, but we talked about it. Richie, know
this one dirty sneakers, dirty cool. That's the Spanish I
(05:27):
was thinking of that. I think your mom actually told
us that one. It's like, yeah, it's an old saying,
like if you see someone with dirty shoes, you're assuming
they got dirty booty. And it's like, hey, wait a minute,
dirty car. You go in someone's car and they have
piles of receipts, jelly packets and trash all over the car.
You're on his hair. They don't even have a dog,
but there's just hair everywhere. You're like, man, there's are
(05:50):
great indicators of what that person's like at home. And
I would assume once a month for those mongrels. But
if you're a college kid and we've been there, I
barely rarely, And that's probably when I should have changed
my sheets the most, but I barely did. It just
depends what stage of life you're at. Because a younger guy,
(06:10):
that's not their priority. Don't sleep on anything.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
The guy's noticed the trend with white tennis shoes though
with the teenagers right now, they like that worn look
on the white shoes.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
It's like you're creased ass, dusty air. Force ones.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
Good.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
It goes against everything Cavino stands for.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
You know, it's so strange because we used to have
the shoe cleaning kits when we were that age.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Shoe white.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Yeah, and the kids right now they like that dirty
white shoe like when they're Adida Shelto's turned yellow and rich.
It's part of that Morgan Wallen wannabe looked too, that
we saw when we were in Phoenix.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
We were just saying, if you see a bunch of
young people out and about it at a bar club,
Danny g and I were saying, it seems like the
young cool guy nowadays does have that Morgan Wallin like mustache,
button down shirt, short like short khaki shorts. I'll be
the guy to admit it. Yeah, I know the name.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
I knew.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
He threw stools off the roof and got in trouble
a chair. Yeah, he threw a chair off the roof
in Nashville. I had to look him up, and when
I did, I'm like, you know what, nail on the head. Yeah,
that's what every young white guy especially is.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
It's weird too, like that shaved like almost Hitler looking mustache.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Yeah, you're dead on about which, by the way, should
never be a mustache you go for right. He ruined
that mustache forever, not that it was ever a good look,
but I'll tell let's lay off that one. But you
do look around. That is the look for like I
guess you would say, the cool, young twenty something year
old white dude that gets girls. He looks like Morgan Wallen.
I don't know, dirty look, And I say, clean your
(07:40):
shoes when I see the foam, I'm in my zone. Well,
you're the guy that takes shoe You're the kind of
takes meticulous care of your Jordan's and Air Force ones
and sneakers, and you're a sneakerhead a bit. But yeah,
I'm just saying, there's indicators on your sheet theory. So
what did page six or what did the New York
Posts say about changing your sheets? Most try to change
(08:02):
your bed sheets once a month. Once a month is
like the minimum, they're saying. The proper answer is weekly. Now,
if you're married, then I got a good influence work.
If you have a good influence in your life, like
a wife or girlfriend, because guys are sort of gross.
I think each week is a nice rotation of the
sheet you don't need to wash them. If you have
multiple sets of bed sheets every week, just change about.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
We talked about this a couple of years ago. There
was a study from England and most guys there changed
their sheets once every six months.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
That's right. Yeah, we were grossed up. Yeah, we were
grossed up by that soid dirty little grubs. Yeah, I
forgot about that. You're right, dandy g We talked about
that on our weekend show here on Fox Sports. Right, So,
I don't know, there's two times where you won't find me,
Steve Cavino. I'm sure there's others, but two that come
to mind. When Buster point Dexter kicks on at a
(08:52):
wedding and the Congo line starts, that's when I dip
out and use the bathroom. I'm not getting involved in
his corniness. And anytime I realize my girlfriend has got
that fitted sheet and she needs someone to help her
put it on, I disappear. I'm like, yeah, right, I
hate that. It's a nightmare negotiating my way out of that, Like, honey,
I'll I'll run to the supermarket all dishes. What do
(09:15):
you need me to do? I'm not doing the thing
anything but defitted sheet, don't. I think defitted is second
to the sheet on top of that. Because this sheet
on top of it, you gotta you gotta tuck it
and space it out just the right way. Something about
it as tedious and aggravating and for some reason, Yeah,
you can't fold it, you can't put it on. It
takes two people. You get aggravated in one corner on
(09:36):
the other one off.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
Sugg.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
You gotta get new sets.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Now.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
I was saying, if I see six pillowcases on my
bed and my wife's like, honey, could you are like no,
and I run for the hills. I'll tell you this
based on that. I'm just saying, I get the pain,
I get the under I understand the frustration. But you
gotta be changing your sheets at least twice a month
at This is just a depends what type of This
is a message for the stinky sports guys, especially that
(10:04):
may are you the guys stead eat Buffalo wild wings
in bed if you're eating watching the NBA Finals. I
said this to you earlier. I was saying, there's a
lot of factors here. Now, you should all change your
sheets one to two weeks maximum, right, But the factors
if you're Lenny Kravitz, you don't have to because you're
not man. What's up? What doesn't matter? He says he's
celibate for nine years. Now do you see what Ice
(10:25):
T said? Some weird ass bs. Yo, that's some weird
ass bs. But factors. Do you let your dog sleep
in your bed? Yeah? If your cheat? If your sheets
smell like corn chips, then yeah, you might have to watch.
Do you have little kids? Are they Are they sitting
in your bed eating snacks? Do you work at the
factory all day and not shower at night and laying
(10:47):
your bed? Do you come from the gym and then
laying your bed bed would close on? All these things
matter at that at the least too, you should clean
at least if you're gonna skip a week your pillow case,
think of your pants.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
You're sitting where coworkers have sat, and then you're gonna
go home and sit on your bed in those.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
You know where I really skimp out. This is this
is mocking fashion. This is my little usher moment. I
have a teenage daughter, right, teenage pain in the ass,
and yes she's capable of doing her laundry, but a
lot of times I do it. I do the sheets.
I'll take your sheets off. But I gotta tell you,
I skimp out on that. I just wash your pillowcase.
(11:26):
And I even those sheets on for like a month
at a time. I'm like, get out of here. I'm
not sacrificing my mental state for that fitted sheet. You
do it yourself if you want to clean them. Honestly,
I'm like, yeah, She's like, Dad, did you clean my sheets?
I'm like, yep. Meanwhile, not winning the Data of the
Year war for that while I did not I clean
your pillowcase because I didn't want to do all that
(11:46):
just to remind her to the stinky sports fans. And
I said it because there's a lot of guys that
wouldn't even think. Oh yeah, because I remember those college stereo,
those college days. Cavino's right picture that oddly shaped bed
you had every twin long. It's like a twin long
bed that every dorm had. You like, why they're weird,
separate bed sheets, narrow, but it's very long. Yeah, and
(12:08):
this does this no good. I'll be honest. I remember
washing my sheets, and I remember I'm sorry, I remember
washing my laundry every so often in the dorm room,
but I don't remember often putting the bed sheets in there.
So I feel like a lot of college kids are
probably maybe a couple of times a semiss and you're wondering,
what does this have to do with anything sports related? Rich? No,
Rich still wears uses his nineteen eighty six Mets sheets.
(12:31):
So yeah, he sleeps on Gary Carter every night. I
try to put the pillow case on. So I'm face
to face with Ray Knight now, which probably we all
had our our favorite teams. We all had like every
Did you have the like NFL comforter with like every team? Yeah?
I know I did.
Speaker 5 (12:47):
Do you guys remember from Seinfeld the Comforter the Boys
comfort with all the baseball teams on it.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
I had that growing up. That exactly what I would say.
I'm one time. This is maybe a couple of years ago.
On our Patreon, which we do every morning, you could subscribe.
It's an uncensored, raw version of what we do here.
It's in our unleashed so sounds like a plug. Yeah,
fay subscribe away support the show. So every every morning
we do a Patreon and it's a video show also,
(13:14):
and I remember showing Covino and spot a picture of
like my childhood room, and just by showing that picture,
they saw my bed sheets which match my curtains, which
were generic baseball cards. They were white. It was white
with a bunch of baseball cards on it. And when
I tell you the feedback we got, our parents were
(13:37):
probably from J. C. Penny or Sears or Oldoor or
you know, definitely. But if anyone else had those sheets,
you were not the only one. They were bed sheets
a comforter with matching curtains, and there were baseball cards.
And your good parents probably watched them every week and
a half every two weeks or so, depending on your
bed wedding problems. And uh, you know you now as
(13:58):
an adult, we're saying. I'm saying at least once every
two weeks, I got quick regardless of your habits. What's up, Iowa, Sam?
All right?
Speaker 5 (14:06):
So for you guys, in for any stinky sports listeners
out there, I lately have gotten into the habit or
at least doing this once in a while washing my pillows.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Do you do that washing your pills every once in
a while. Should It's probably the right idea. You take
off a pillow case you like, what cases like so thin.
Speaker 5 (14:23):
It's just like a little level of protection. But your
pillows absorb all the sweat.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
Well.
Speaker 5 (14:28):
I like, I like down like gooset down pillows, Like
they they sit on your neck really well. And those
after you've had them for a while, they're expensive too,
so you have to like wash them because they'll get
all grungey when ladies.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Joh and I with Sam in the betteres like I
like to goost damn.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Me.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
I'm like, I'm a big fan of Mike Lindell's my
pillow and you had that patented fill and you can
just throw it washing machine washing your pillows. Though I
never used to do that, I would you, Sam, It's
probably a good idea if you take the pillow case off.
We all have the same thought, like what oo's is
out of my head? I know, like how do the
night tear sweats? Like? Good do I have green goo
in my face? That just calls out toxic ewes likes
(15:06):
avenger in bed my goodness. But yeah, I will say
this though, if you are that stereotypical sports fans sports guy,
and let's say you're on the prowl, you're on a
mission for miss New Booty, you're just leaning into that
stereotype that you're a dirt merchant, sloppy guy if you're
not keeping your bed clean. Be ee, don't forget about
(15:28):
our female listeners. Yeah, you know what, Yes, and the ladies.
You gotta balance it out. We all get a little.
But if you're one of those face painted, beer helmet
wearing jersey haveing twenty four to seven guys, yeah, you
better have a nice clean bed just to balance out
the Again, the expectations here.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
Mostly you're right rich, But back in the day, we
all knew girls that had dogs as their boyfriend or
their best friend in it really rolled around in their bed.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
I told you, I remember what's that what's the Beethoven
dog from that movie Bernard. Yeah, I hooked up with
a girl once. I'll be honest with the album. I'm
naked in her bed and she has no problem with
her Saint Bernard on the bed with us. I'm like,
can we did he have like a barrel around his neck?
She made rich where the barrel around the neck. She
(16:17):
kept condoms to the little barrel and I'm like, you've
done this before, switched it out to hand sanitizer. Yeah,
but you know, I thought for sure. Growing up, I
see a lot more sent bernards or barrels around their
neck as Yeah, that's another one of those things based
on cartoons. Those were a thing back in the day.
But hey, don't don't be don't be dirty. That's it.
Wash your sheets again. They say once every week. I say,
(16:40):
that's probably the gold. That's significant, that's a nice, that's good,
that's that's ambitious.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
There are a lot of men listening right now are
rolling their eyes all right on. Most people that are
clean would do it every other week.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Every other week is where I'm at to a little
compromise action. So that's the update today. That's the stat
from the New York Post. And speaking of New York,
the Mets, believe it or not, are making headlines. They
won a game, they won a game. They're feeling themselves.
And we got to talk about this new celebration because
there's a lot of people questioning what does it mean
(17:13):
and why are they celebrating they're god awful. Well, there
was a team meeting a player called meeting, and I'm
not saying that's significant, but you hear about that right
where like a team struggling the golf players alost the
question does it ever do anything? And I did say.
I listened back because I love our best off, because
I'm a narcissist, and I self because I'm a fan
(17:34):
of our show. And I said, I don't know if
it does anything, but I'll tell you what. Won't do anything, nothing, nothing,
no meeting whatsoever, guaranteed to produce zero results. I promise you.
It sounds ridiculous, so it's better than nothing. I could
compare it because sports are sports, right, I mean, it
could be t ball, or it could be the big leagues.
(17:55):
There's still layers that have similarities. Right, Softball a couple
of days a week, it's my outlet, get out of
the house, hit a couple of line drives, feel the
ground ball still makes me feel good. And he doesn't
have to wash his sheets because he barely breaks the sweat.
Then I shower after every game. But I've noticed, Danny
that the team I play for Tuesday nights, we've been losing,
(18:18):
Like the team's not great. And I could tell the
bad news, bros. I could tell that there's guys that
had come in with just like a bad attitude, and
it's becoming less fun, oh toxic that's to the point
where I talk to one of the other guys. I'm like, Yo,
this isn't as fun. Losing's not fun. I was like,
should we all Like it sounded so corny, but I
(18:39):
was the guy that was like, should we all go
off like a beer or something? Because this used to
be a group of guys that we enjoyed playing every
Tuesday night, laughing and joking and you know, busting chops.
Now it's like, you know, ten twelve guys.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Like yeah, no thanks, I want to be like the
Jorge Lopez reporter and talk to you guys right after
the game for the wrong emotion.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
I'm having the worst team in the valley. But the
comparison is there, though, rich because we did point out
we know it gets bad in the locker room, but
we really don't know how bad and how toxic and
how depressing it could be. When you have to deal
with the press, you have to deal with the constant booze,
the constant speculation of why you guys think so bad,
the mental anguish you have to go through. Did you
(19:19):
say anguish, I just say anguish.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
I know.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
Listen, there have been a couple times we've been working
together for what almost twenty years. Since we're like twenty
years old, he's still the youngest in the game, Dan Byer,
I don't know how we do how do we do it?
I don't know, you know, oil of La. There might
be maybe three or four times in the show's history
where you know, you get a rut where it's like, dude,
I want to kill Kavino or I want to strangle
Spot or I'm sure they feel the same about me.
(19:43):
And sometimes those call for a Yeah, guys, let's go
for a stake. Now, let's go for a drink, let's refresh.
Essentially a team meeting, because you don't think radio shows
are broadcast teams or anyone have said, hey, you know
where we're not clicking, let's let's do something. And Dan,
even from morale, like when you bring in Pete so
once in a while where we get buffalo wild wings.
Those things mean something.
Speaker 6 (20:03):
Yes, they do, They absolutely do. Just kind of gives
you a little refresh, a little restart. It also helps
your guys skin. When you have those two week old
oils on your pillowcases, it makes you look so much younger.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Yeah, that's that's the that's the deal.
Speaker 6 (20:18):
And fresh, yes, or if it sits in the pillow
for two years, if you don't wash it unlike you know,
Sam does.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Can I can?
Speaker 5 (20:24):
I just something came to me, great joke, the late
great Don Rickles. I think he was out of the
roast of Bob Saggott. He's like, Uh, if you want
to strike it rich in the oil industry, just go
over John Stamos's house and ring out his pillowcases.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Don Rickles is great. Who did the And by the way, yeah,
we all love Don Wrickles. Don Rickles tells a great
Sinatra story on Johnny Carson. Find out on social media later,
but to go we talked about how him and Sinatra
were pal so good. Don Rickles was one of those
great late night guests that that doesn't exist anymore. That
world always just come on in filling so good. Who
(21:02):
did the infamous? Wasn't it the Was it Hayward on
the Cups?
Speaker 7 (21:06):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (21:07):
Yeah, yeah it was. Jason was right hearing that rain
delay in the world. So we hear those stories about
there was this awesome team meeting they had. It really
switched everything around, and so you can't say it doesn't work.
I just think it doesn't always work. I mean again,
I'm not trying to be mister relatable guy. What if
you work in sales and let's say you have a
real crap quarter and everyone's like, man, you're struggling. Everyone's
(21:30):
in a bed crap mood at work. You don't think
if the boss was like, hey, guys, let's uh, let's
all leave work. We're going to Benny Hanna, We're going
us some team building exercise. You could say building camaraderie
and chemistry. You could say corny. I think stuff like
that does actually matter. And you know what the Mets
called the team meeting. And I want to give you
a couple of details next and tell me what you think.
(21:52):
We'll get to that. Plus the NBA finals are set,
We'll get to a little weekend hobnobin. What to watch

Speaker 1 (24:01):
I love this. You know who else love this? Steve Miller,
the Steve Miller estate probably loves eminem It's called Houdini.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
Lebron loves it too, he commented on it. Yeah, he
sure did.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Wow already what did he say? Said? He was feeling it.
It's kind of hard not to. I feel like this
song was made for summer twenty twenty four, for summer
twenty twenty four, and for every roughly thirty five forty
something You're all because it's as I was, the dad's
grilling up in their cargo shorts. So I was, Sam said,
(24:38):
it's like comfort food eminem because it is very old
school sounding eminem. It really is a fantastic idea. If
you have not seen the video, I'm rate when Rich
and I agree it's fact. Welcome back to the Cavino
and Rich Show on Fox Sports Radio Live from the
tire rack dot Com studio. That's the spring jam of
the summer right now. Let me tell you the video
makes it even better. He dresses up like Robin from
(25:00):
That Man and Robin Again. It's a it's old eminem
with the blonde hair and current eminem. And the whole
concept of the video is what would eminem of the
early two thousands think of the world. Now, you know
who else is in that video? Who's that old guy
that Luca was yelling at yesterday on the sideline, that
old ohop dog? Yeah stop dog said it. Pete Davidson
(25:22):
has a pretty cool cameo. So the video alone entertaining.
And I was Sam, My wife said the same thing
as you, which is it's like comfort eminem and has
like a throwback feel to all the old school eminem fans.
So check that out, Hoodini Now back to my New
York Mets. They played decent yesterday. They came up with
(25:43):
a win, but after a players only team meeting called
by Francisco Lindor and J. D. Martinez had some interesting thoughts.
Speaker 8 (25:52):
Take a listen talking about the pressure and it doesn't exist.
You know, like I said at the meeting, you know,
no one thinks you're gonna win a hundred games? Is
I guarantee you can have everybody everyone we're going to
put all their money that we're not. We have no
pressure on us. You know, the pressure is on everyone
else right now. Let them have it. If we lose,
we lose.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
That's an interesting take. And listen by JB. De Martinez,
one of the New Mets, but a leader veteran Jose
saying that there is zero pressure. No one thinks we're
gonna win one hundred games. In fact, they're ten games
under five hundred. But do you think playing loose with
no pressure and that team meeting, I mean that's the
positive spin out. I mean, could it spark anything? Like
(26:30):
he's saying, listen, we have talent. Look at the roster
on paper, this is a good team. He says, it's
a team that can produce for runs. We have a
legit competitive team day in and day out, and as
a result, they've got nothing to lose. Now then to
turn it around. The season is still early, no question.
I mean, I'm not comparing it to a fictional Cleveland
(26:50):
Indians team from Major League. But you know that mindset
of like, eh, f it, what do we have to lose?
Let's go like I know what they lost or Lopez's
the You're in the same division. Hey, maybe that's a
turning point. Man, You're in the same division. Yeah, but
that's a sad story. You're in the same division as
the Phillies and Braves, who are arguably two of the
best three or four teams in baseball. What do you
(27:12):
think about you think the Yankees, Dodgers, Braves, Phillies. You
do make a good point, like, man, even our boy
Jorge Lopez is gone. We got we gotta turn this around. Now.
Maybe that was a wake up call that, look what's
happening here. We're casting people their jobs. This is baseball
is supposed to be fun. We gotta get on the
right page. Like, maybe it was a bit of a
wake up call, and as a result, Lindor did the
(27:35):
right thing got them together. They won, they played fired up.
They have good players, you know, clearly it's a chemistry
or fit sort of issue or a leadership thing, and
they're trying to take matters in their own hands. And
now out of nowhere, since this meeting, they've developed a
new sort of celebration dance. Let me let me there
(27:55):
are two little caveats as you talking about the celebration
dance or move. Lindor said that this has nothing to
do with Jage Lopez, like this player's only thing with
something they had talked about, like we need to get
on track. The Lopez thing probably just enhanced it. And again,
as a said Mets fan, they really are one of
the most disappointing franchises to root for, But we forget
(28:17):
that they're two years removed from being a one hundred
win plus team that we were talking about with the
Dodgers and Braves and Yankees and everything. The Mets had
Steve Cohen by the team and the sentiment was, man,
they're going to compete every year. Now, move over, Yankees.
There's two powerhouses in New York and the wheels fell off.
(28:38):
How could a team that won over one hundred games
two years ago. Go from Wow, Lindor Alonzo, Brandon Nimo,
Starling Marte, all these names that you know, young players like.
They added great players like Jady Martinez, Vienno Doors and
Alvarez the catcher. How can this team stink so bad?
I know they're lacking pitching, but everyone is so hey.
(29:02):
I'm not saying the Mets turn around, and I'm not
saying they even finished the season over five hundred, but
sometimes playing with that, who gives an f We have
nothing to lose, Let's do it. There's zero expectation. Everyone
thinks we're gonna be terrible, so hey, let's shock everyone.
Pressure's on them, as JD said, And we didn't know.
(29:22):
At least I didn't know because I don't follow the
Mets as closely as Rich does. I'm a Yankees fan.
But all of a sudden, I'm seeing the highlights and
I'm noticing, like Pete Alonzo doing this move, Lindor doing
this move, Like what the hell are they? They're really
overly celebrating when they think so bad? What's that about it?
But like I said, when your team is immortalized, what
(29:42):
are you supposed to if you keep that you almost
have to turn the patch. I'm not hating on it.
I'm just telling you that I noticed it right because
they had such a crappy week. They have such a
crappy sort of reputation, and all of a sudden, I'm
seeing them celebrating like when a guy gets a stands
up double. Some teams do the claw, don't. The Dodgers
(30:05):
do that thing where they wave their hands in the air.
There's always something, Yeah, there's always like a new thing.
The Mets a few years ago was the thumbs down. Yeah,
the Mets now have this thing where if you want
what I think, it looks like it looks like they're
slapping a booty three times, dude. Like it's almost like
exactly what I wrote down. I got boom boom boom.
So they have a new celebration, and I wrote, look,
you can read my notes. Ass slap. The new ass slap,
(30:28):
as we're coining it is the new celebration of the
mat of the Mets. And this is all based on
the Lindor team meeting that was meant to turn things around.
And a nothing puts a smile on the face and
lightens the move, and a nice ass slap but I
want to know your thoughts on it. Do you think
things like that work? I think it's better than nothing.
(30:50):
I think this builds camaraderie and chemistry, and it does
add a little spark, a little fire, a little little
semblance of fun. And I think that's what the Mets need.
And they if you got to fake the funk until
you finally get there, you got to you gotta do something.
They have a rookie coach, remember that as well, rookie manager. Yeah,
(31:10):
first time managing in the big so hey, there's a
learning curve. But yeah, But the story today is unless
you're really in on the Mets culture and you got
the scoop or your scoops Callahan, or you're part of
a Mets blog, the question is, well, what is the
what is the message? What does it mean? Nobody really
knows yet, which it doesn't bother you.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
What they did to Jorge Lopez, I thought that a
bad taste in my mouth.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
Ya.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
How do you go from that to suddenly, oh we
got a new handshake where everything's great the Mets.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
The Mets are making moves every day. If you're if
you are you? And when you find out the backstory
The backstory is if you remember he had, you know,
a little bit of a mental thing last year. But
he has a kid who's on a waiting list because
he's looking for some sort of some sort of organ
transplant or something, but he has a series illness. So
imagine your mindset when you're playing for the weakest team.
(32:04):
You're getting thrown out of games, you have a kid
who's on a wait list at home. I got it,
and then you get kicked off the team because of
a language barrier. That's tough. I mean then around it
sound like his the IRA was in the two, so
it doesn't matter. It was still wrong. But you know,
we said this the other day about football, and I
know it's the Mets having gained any great personnel, but
what do we talk about with the NFL. Sometimes you
(32:26):
need to hit rock bottom for the team to make
a change, because sometimes playing five bottom eminem sometimes playing
five hundred baseball, football, basketball, anything, you're stuck in this
illusion of, oh, you know what, maybe we're uh, maybe
we're one move away, and you're usually not, so you're
stuck in this purgatory known as five hundred. So maybe
maybe when the wheels fall off and it really gets bad.
(32:48):
You need that because otherwise you're like, we're not that bad.
I'll tell you what. In high school, any sports team
I ever played on, truth is, I never played on
a winner and I never played on a loser. Would
you believe my high scho baseball team all three years
I you know, varsity, you know, between JV and varsity,
all the years I played, we were probably let's say
(33:09):
we played twenty five games thirteen and twelve, twelve and thirteen,
fourteen and eleven, eleven and fourteen, never great and never bad,
and it's sort of boring. I talked to one of
my friends who is a beat writer in the NFL,
and I said, what's the worst And he goes, you
know what, the worst is when the team's mediocre. Because
if the team's great, you're writing great stories and the
(33:29):
fans are rallying around it. If the team's bad, the
storylines are fantastic because the team's that bad. The worst
time to cover a team is when they're five hundred.
So what we're saying, what we're getting at Fox Sports
Radio Nation, if you read between the lines, the New
Mets celebration is better than none at all. That you
got to start somewhere, right, Like I said, fake it
(33:50):
till you make it. We're coining it the ass slap
until we know what it means. Maybe it is. Hey,
let's lap some asses and let's have some fun. It's baseball.
But the fan, the team celebration, the chemistry builder. That's
the equivalent of someone bringing in donuts to the office
or pizza to the office. It's that team building, chemistry
(34:11):
building thing that everybody needs every once in a while.
You may need that in your relationship. Hey, things are
gonna dailed. Well, yeah, date night, you know that's that's
the equivalent of a team meeting. That's a great example
when your relationship with stale and you and your wife
have not gotten on in a while, and you're busy
with the kids and say date night. I mean like
you're getting dressed up date night. Now you're going to
(34:33):
Chili's date night. Even though that could be fun to
date night, date not. Let's go to Danby for an update.
Running late, Sorry d bab, Sorry, just having too much fun.
It's all right, guys.
Speaker 6 (34:51):
The the Cubs and Reds almost ran laid into extras, but.
Speaker 4 (34:55):
In the end, first ball swing, Let's run high in
the air right field, Frailey back, Freiley under.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
It, He's got it. That's it. Reds win it five
to four.
Speaker 6 (35:07):
Cubs did have the tying run on third as you heard, however,
couldn't get it across final call in the Reds victory
courtesy of seven hundred WLW and the Reds Radio network
tying run. Actually the out prior was called out at
the plate on a gun down by Elie de la Cruz.
Quite the rifle from short left to get the tying
(35:28):
run at home. But the Reds end up winning today
five to four. That was a great throw. He was
a dead dock. Yes, he was just a couple of
quick NBA notes. Piston's jam Troy Weaver's not going to
return next season. They got a new president of basketball
operations in Trajan langdon So. Weaver is out in Detroit.
Celtics said coach Joe Mizzoula said that injured forward Christaps
Porzingis is getting better, but wouldn't say if Porzingis will
(35:48):
play in the NBA Finals because of his calf injury,
and the New Orleans Pelicans are expected to defer the
first round pick given to them by the Lakers. Until
twenty twenty five. That means that the Lakers will their
twenty twenty four first round pick, which is number seventeen
overall in the draft. Coming up next month at the
French Open, third seed Carlos Alcarez, top twenty seven seed
(36:09):
in American Sebastian Korda in straight sets. Korda's sister Nelly
trying to make the cut at the US Women's Open.
She's currently at plus nine, twelve back of the lead
held by with Channie Meatschai, who's at three under projected
cut right now, is at plus eight, so kordas one
off that Robert McIntyre leads to the Canadian Open at
ten under par Rory McElroy. Eight shots back, guys, back to.

stay celibate.
Speaker 4 (37:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
I don't think you could be a sex symbol if
you haven't done it for nine years. I know you
love saying that, but being a sex symbol doesn't mean
you're having sex all the time. Otherwise porn stars would
be sex symbols, well, some of them are. It just
means you're attractive, means you're you're good looking. It has not.
Speaker 3 (38:00):
Their personal life has everything to do with Hay. Look,
you know we were talking about Eminem's new music. Lenny's
got a new album. I listened to it the other day.
Pretty good.
Speaker 1 (38:08):
I've heard some of the songs. Yeah, what is the one?
It's like a weird code. Yeah, keep it in your
keep it in your pants, Keep it in your pants.
He's celibate for nine years. Rich is wondering can you
be a sex symbol if you're not having any But anyway,
I'm always on the run. Love this song, Mama, said Covino,
(38:32):
and Rich is the greatest Fox Sports Radio Live from
the Tirack dot Com studios. Now, this show moves a
mile a minute, as you know. So before we get
into roun our test, Metal World, Peace and his Circuit
City story, I do want to point out a funny
story from last night. We saw Luca in a zone.
We see the Mavericks playing well. Props to them. They
(38:54):
take on Boston next week. I'm excited for it. We
move south fast that I had one last thought about
the Mets, and it just has to do with every
team in the National League for that matter, your American League.
Cavino arguably far more competitive. Right, there's some really good
teams in the American League. In fact, a top of
the wildcard chase. You got Baltimore Case, both with winning
(39:18):
percentages over six hundred, the Twins. There's teams that are
playing well the National League Wildcard other than the Braves.
And you know, you could argue the Phillies and the Braves.
You know, whoever gets hot at the end of the year,
one of those teams will be the wildcard. You know,
the other two wildcards are playing one game over five hundred.
If the season ended now, the Giants and the Padres
(39:41):
in the n West would be the wildcards at twenty
nine and twenty eight and thirty and twenty nine. So
even a god awful team like the Mets or Sinci
who's struggling, You're Arizona who's cold right now? Or Colorado,
even like these teams are only five games out of
the wildcard crazy, and you still have a half a
season left of baseball. You still have one hundred games.
(40:02):
So if you still have one hundred games of baseball
to go, it's like five games to make celibate. Since
eighty six, they haven't celebrated it didn't think and circling
back to that co TK four two, TK Fall two one,
A lot of people are speculated what it means.
Speaker 3 (40:17):
Yeah, it's Lenny Kravitz new song. Yeah, Blue electric Light
is the album Star Wars reference. But yeah, some cool stuff.
Definitely props to Lenny Kravitz, one of my favorites. Fun
fact about Cavino and Rich he was our first celebrity
interview as a show, Lenny Kravitz, and that was special
Celibate since.
Speaker 1 (40:35):
Early two thousand and four. I can't compete now before
we get on and move on. Michael Finley is the
VP of basketball Operations for the MAVs, and I just
want to point out the story because don't let this
happen to you this weekend when you celebrate and enjoy
your weekend. Lucas celebrating the victory yesterday. Dude plays his
(40:58):
ass off, and my Finley, the VP, is right there,
camera's on him and everything, and he takes the beer
out of Luca's hand, like give me that, and Luca's
like sitting there like confused, like damn, he just did that,
took my drink, took his beer, took away his celebratory
moment didn't let him have it, and I think the
backstory is they've been on him about his diet and
(41:21):
about how he takes care of himself, especially during this run,
but that's not going to help him stay off the beer.
Took it out of his hands right there, and Luca
did not look happy about it. I'm just saying I
can't imagine what that's like as a grown man. I
have someone take your drink out of your hand and
just like that's it. I know what happened to you?
(41:43):
Is the point I've only only gotten in confrontations with
adult sweating again. I'm not a fight. I'm not a fighter.
What I'm trying to say is I don't get an
arguments for fights much. But the few times I wanted
to strangle someone or get in a fight was when
another grown man tells me what to do or take
something away from him about They take your uh, your
(42:03):
your your barbecue thongs out of your hand and they
start manning the grill. I don't know about your barbecue thong.
How what are you cooking? He hands off my barbecue thong,
your barbara every time my grill and uh, you know,
when someone wants to man your grill in your own home,
(42:24):
and that's sort of insulting. So when someone takes your
beer in this celebration that you earned, I don't know,
there's something about that that says, hey, they may be
looking at it, they maybe looking out for you. But
if another girl, man, imagine I call it you and
I take where you drink like you know you've had enough. Yeah,
well it happened. That's that's not a move many would receive. Well,
when you do the bowl scroll later, you'll see what
we're talking about. But enjoy your beer this week. Hey, cheers.

And thanks again for hanging out with us. Yeah, Amka
getting all loud with Snoop Dog yesterday. Let me tell you,
Dandy G hit us up with the perfect text last night, like, yeah,
this sucks. We all wanted so badly for the Tea
(02:09):
Wolves to make this a series. And you know. I'll
tell you, even Anthony Edwards was in awe of how
great Luca was shooting and playing and just dumbfounded staring
at the greatness that we're witnessing. And even he said
afterward he had a lot of fun getting to this
point and hoping to be back and going further next year.
(02:31):
I'm sorry, MAV's just outplayed the man. They're just that
good right now and Lucas that unstoppable. So I don't
really hate on the Timberwolves that much. Well, I've got
to say it wasn't Danny. Was you with the great
text things? Well, he just wrote, game is ass. It
was as I mean it was. It was an ass game.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
I sent you a copy of your best of and
I said, this is a hundred times better than the
game right.
Speaker 1 (02:52):
Now, that's what you wrote. Okay, well it might agree
with it. When I say ass, I mean like deflated
jack ass. I don't mean like sweet ass. I mean
that game was ass. Oh no, you're that game was
like oh zempic ass, Yeah, like ozempic Like yeah, what
happened to your ass? Ass? Yeah that was not a
good one, but hey, congrats to the MAVs. Congrats to
the Celtics. In fact, first time, I mean only the
(03:14):
second time in the last twenty something years that the
Eastern Conference team is favored in the NBA Finals. By
the way, the last time the MAVs were here was
with Jason Kidd, Right, So props, what a squad. Let's go.
I'm excited for it. Now we're going to start with
something random. We'll get to the sports. We'll get to
the Mets new secret handshake or a little celebration, and
(03:38):
of course every Friday here on the show, what to
look for in the world of sports and entertainment weekend hobnobbing,
what you need to watch, what you can't miss. We'll
get to that. Yeah, the Moron of the Day award
is going to be presented to this dude and it
has to do with a zoom call in court. Oh
it is this a new segment Moron of the Day?
(03:58):
I could get down with that. A funny story about Metaworld,
Peace and Circuit City from back of the day. We've
been putting that off of very funny. I got to
ask though, to start the show. I'm doing my prep
like we all do, going through the sports websites. Well,
our prep is much different than everybody else's prep. Our
prep is scrolling through social media and see if there's
(04:21):
anything juicy. Honestly, really is. It's a social media scroll
all day, all night, and I'm just making notes. And
you know you Danny g and I I was Sam
dan Byer. We're sending each other articles or clips here
and there. Oh, this could be good, this could be good.
I saw some crap. I think the New York Post
put it out and it's just a random question. I
think it's very telling about someone. It was a study
(04:42):
of how often do you change your bed sheets? And
I think the answer is there are clues if I
could look at you and you have beat ass, busted,
dirty sneakers, I'm assuming once a month, if you're lucky.
Oh that's our sign. Is that like my theory that
if you your girl with really bad fingernails and toenails,
that other stuff may be not kept nicely. That's a
(05:07):
Rich Davis theory, That is what I'm saying. So you're
saying you could look at someone and tell me if
they wash their bit sheets enough. Yeah, there's a saying
in Spanish, I'd have to ask my mom or my titho,
what it was, but we talked about it. Richie, know
this one dirty sneakers, dirty cool. That's the Spanish I
(05:27):
was thinking of that. I think your mom actually told
us that one. It's like, yeah, it's an old saying,
like if you see someone with dirty shoes, you're assuming
they got dirty booty. And it's like, hey, wait a minute,
dirty car. You go in someone's car and they have
piles of receipts, jelly packets and trash all over the car.
You're on his hair. They don't even have a dog,
but there's just hair everywhere. You're like, man, there's are
(05:50):
great indicators of what that person's like at home. And
I would assume once a month for those mongrels. But
if you're a college kid and we've been there, I
barely rarely, And that's probably when I should have changed
my sheets the most, but I barely did. It just
depends what stage of life you're at. Because a younger guy,
(06:10):
that's not their priority. Don't sleep on anything.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
The guy's noticed the trend with white tennis shoes though
with the teenagers right now, they like that worn look
on the white shoes.
Speaker 1 (06:21):
It's like you're creased ass, dusty air. Force ones.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (06:25):
Good.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
It goes against everything Cavino stands for.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
You know, it's so strange because we used to have
the shoe cleaning kits when we were that age.
Speaker 1 (06:31):
Shoe white.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
Yeah, and the kids right now they like that dirty
white shoe like when they're Adida Shelto's turned yellow and rich.
It's part of that Morgan Wallen wannabe looked too, that
we saw when we were in Phoenix.
Speaker 1 (06:42):
We were just saying, if you see a bunch of
young people out and about it at a bar club,
Danny g and I were saying, it seems like the
young cool guy nowadays does have that Morgan Wallin like mustache,
button down shirt, short like short khaki shorts. I'll be
the guy to admit it. Yeah, I know the name.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
I knew.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
He threw stools off the roof and got in trouble
a chair. Yeah, he threw a chair off the roof
in Nashville. I had to look him up, and when
I did, I'm like, you know what, nail on the head. Yeah,
that's what every young white guy especially is.
Speaker 3 (07:15):
It's weird too, like that shaved like almost Hitler looking mustache.
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Yeah, you're dead on about which, by the way, should
never be a mustache you go for right. He ruined
that mustache forever, not that it was ever a good look,
but I'll tell let's lay off that one. But you
do look around. That is the look for like I
guess you would say, the cool, young twenty something year
old white dude that gets girls. He looks like Morgan Wallen.
I don't know, dirty look, And I say, clean your
(07:40):
shoes when I see the foam, I'm in my zone. Well,
you're the guy that takes shoe You're the kind of
takes meticulous care of your Jordan's and Air Force ones
and sneakers, and you're a sneakerhead a bit. But yeah,
I'm just saying, there's indicators on your sheet theory. So
what did page six or what did the New York
Posts say about changing your sheets? Most try to change
(08:02):
your bed sheets once a month. Once a month is
like the minimum, they're saying. The proper answer is weekly. Now,
if you're married, then I got a good influence work.
If you have a good influence in your life, like
a wife or girlfriend, because guys are sort of gross.
I think each week is a nice rotation of the
sheet you don't need to wash them. If you have
multiple sets of bed sheets every week, just change about.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
We talked about this a couple of years ago. There
was a study from England and most guys there changed
their sheets once every six months.
Speaker 1 (08:31):
That's right. Yeah, we were grossed up. Yeah, we were
grossed up by that soid dirty little grubs. Yeah, I
forgot about that. You're right, dandy g We talked about
that on our weekend show here on Fox Sports. Right, So,
I don't know, there's two times where you won't find me,
Steve Cavino. I'm sure there's others, but two that come
to mind. When Buster point Dexter kicks on at a
(08:52):
wedding and the Congo line starts, that's when I dip
out and use the bathroom. I'm not getting involved in
his corniness. And anytime I realize my girlfriend has got
that fitted sheet and she needs someone to help her
put it on, I disappear. I'm like, yeah, right, I
hate that. It's a nightmare negotiating my way out of that, Like, honey,
I'll I'll run to the supermarket all dishes. What do
(09:15):
you need me to do? I'm not doing the thing
anything but defitted sheet, don't. I think defitted is second
to the sheet on top of that. Because this sheet
on top of it, you gotta you gotta tuck it
and space it out just the right way. Something about
it as tedious and aggravating and for some reason, Yeah,
you can't fold it, you can't put it on. It
takes two people. You get aggravated in one corner on
(09:36):
the other one off.
Speaker 4 (09:39):
Sugg.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
You gotta get new sets.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
Now.
Speaker 1 (09:41):
I was saying, if I see six pillowcases on my
bed and my wife's like, honey, could you are like no,
and I run for the hills. I'll tell you this
based on that. I'm just saying, I get the pain,
I get the under I understand the frustration. But you
gotta be changing your sheets at least twice a month
at This is just a depends what type of This
is a message for the stinky sports guys, especially that
(10:04):
may are you the guys stead eat Buffalo wild wings
in bed if you're eating watching the NBA Finals. I
said this to you earlier. I was saying, there's a
lot of factors here. Now, you should all change your
sheets one to two weeks maximum, right, But the factors
if you're Lenny Kravitz, you don't have to because you're
not man. What's up? What doesn't matter? He says he's
celibate for nine years. Now do you see what Ice
(10:25):
T said? Some weird ass bs. Yo, that's some weird
ass bs. But factors. Do you let your dog sleep
in your bed? Yeah? If your cheat? If your sheets
smell like corn chips, then yeah, you might have to watch.
Do you have little kids? Are they Are they sitting
in your bed eating snacks? Do you work at the
factory all day and not shower at night and laying
(10:47):
your bed? Do you come from the gym and then
laying your bed bed would close on? All these things
matter at that at the least too, you should clean
at least if you're gonna skip a week your pillow case,
think of your pants.
Speaker 3 (11:00):
You're sitting where coworkers have sat, and then you're gonna
go home and sit on your bed in those.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
You know where I really skimp out. This is this
is mocking fashion. This is my little usher moment. I
have a teenage daughter, right, teenage pain in the ass,
and yes she's capable of doing her laundry, but a
lot of times I do it. I do the sheets.
I'll take your sheets off. But I gotta tell you,
I skimp out on that. I just wash your pillowcase.
(11:26):
And I even those sheets on for like a month
at a time. I'm like, get out of here. I'm
not sacrificing my mental state for that fitted sheet. You
do it yourself if you want to clean them. Honestly,
I'm like, yeah, She's like, Dad, did you clean my sheets?
I'm like, yep. Meanwhile, not winning the Data of the
Year war for that while I did not I clean
your pillowcase because I didn't want to do all that
(11:46):
just to remind her to the stinky sports fans. And
I said it because there's a lot of guys that
wouldn't even think. Oh yeah, because I remember those college stereo,
those college days. Cavino's right picture that oddly shaped bed
you had every twin long. It's like a twin long
bed that every dorm had. You like, why they're weird,
separate bed sheets, narrow, but it's very long. Yeah, and
(12:08):
this does this no good. I'll be honest. I remember
washing my sheets, and I remember I'm sorry, I remember
washing my laundry every so often in the dorm room,
but I don't remember often putting the bed sheets in there.
So I feel like a lot of college kids are
probably maybe a couple of times a semiss and you're wondering,
what does this have to do with anything sports related? Rich? No,
Rich still wears uses his nineteen eighty six Mets sheets.
(12:31):
So yeah, he sleeps on Gary Carter every night. I
try to put the pillow case on. So I'm face
to face with Ray Knight now, which probably we all
had our our favorite teams. We all had like every
Did you have the like NFL comforter with like every team? Yeah?
I know I did.
Speaker 5 (12:47):
Do you guys remember from Seinfeld the Comforter the Boys
comfort with all the baseball teams on it.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
I had that growing up. That exactly what I would say.
I'm one time. This is maybe a couple of years ago.
On our Patreon, which we do every morning, you could subscribe.
It's an uncensored, raw version of what we do here.
It's in our unleashed so sounds like a plug. Yeah,
fay subscribe away support the show. So every every morning
we do a Patreon and it's a video show also,
(13:14):
and I remember showing Covino and spot a picture of
like my childhood room, and just by showing that picture,
they saw my bed sheets which match my curtains, which
were generic baseball cards. They were white. It was white
with a bunch of baseball cards on it. And when
I tell you the feedback we got, our parents were
(13:37):
probably from J. C. Penny or Sears or Oldoor or
you know, definitely. But if anyone else had those sheets,
you were not the only one. They were bed sheets
a comforter with matching curtains, and there were baseball cards.
And your good parents probably watched them every week and
a half every two weeks or so, depending on your
bed wedding problems. And uh, you know you now as
(13:58):
an adult, we're saying. I'm saying at least once every
two weeks, I got quick regardless of your habits. What's up, Iowa, Sam?
All right?
Speaker 5 (14:06):
So for you guys, in for any stinky sports listeners
out there, I lately have gotten into the habit or
at least doing this once in a while washing my pillows.
Speaker 1 (14:16):
Do you do that washing your pills every once in
a while. Should It's probably the right idea. You take
off a pillow case you like, what cases like so thin.
Speaker 5 (14:23):
It's just like a little level of protection. But your
pillows absorb all the sweat.
Speaker 3 (14:28):
Well.
Speaker 5 (14:28):
I like, I like down like gooset down pillows, Like
they they sit on your neck really well. And those
after you've had them for a while, they're expensive too,
so you have to like wash them because they'll get
all grungey when ladies.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Joh and I with Sam in the betteres like I
like to goost damn.
Speaker 2 (14:44):
Me.
Speaker 1 (14:44):
I'm like, I'm a big fan of Mike Lindell's my
pillow and you had that patented fill and you can
just throw it washing machine washing your pillows. Though I
never used to do that, I would you, Sam, It's
probably a good idea if you take the pillow case off.
We all have the same thought, like what oo's is
out of my head? I know, like how do the
night tear sweats? Like? Good do I have green goo
in my face? That just calls out toxic ewes likes
(15:06):
avenger in bed my goodness. But yeah, I will say
this though, if you are that stereotypical sports fans sports guy,
and let's say you're on the prowl, you're on a
mission for miss New Booty, you're just leaning into that
stereotype that you're a dirt merchant, sloppy guy if you're
not keeping your bed clean. Be ee, don't forget about
(15:28):
our female listeners. Yeah, you know what, Yes, and the ladies.
You gotta balance it out. We all get a little.
But if you're one of those face painted, beer helmet
wearing jersey haveing twenty four to seven guys, yeah, you
better have a nice clean bed just to balance out
the Again, the expectations here.
Speaker 3 (15:45):
Mostly you're right rich, But back in the day, we
all knew girls that had dogs as their boyfriend or
their best friend in it really rolled around in their bed.
Speaker 1 (15:54):
I told you, I remember what's that what's the Beethoven
dog from that movie Bernard. Yeah, I hooked up with
a girl once. I'll be honest with the album. I'm
naked in her bed and she has no problem with
her Saint Bernard on the bed with us. I'm like,
can we did he have like a barrel around his neck?
She made rich where the barrel around the neck. She
(16:17):
kept condoms to the little barrel and I'm like, you've
done this before, switched it out to hand sanitizer. Yeah,
but you know, I thought for sure. Growing up, I
see a lot more sent bernards or barrels around their
neck as Yeah, that's another one of those things based
on cartoons. Those were a thing back in the day.
But hey, don't don't be don't be dirty. That's it.
Wash your sheets again. They say once every week. I say,
(16:40):
that's probably the gold. That's significant, that's a nice, that's good,
that's that's ambitious.
Speaker 3 (16:44):
There are a lot of men listening right now are
rolling their eyes all right on. Most people that are
clean would do it every other week.
Speaker 1 (16:50):
Every other week is where I'm at to a little
compromise action. So that's the update today. That's the stat
from the New York Post. And speaking of New York,
the Mets, believe it or not, are making headlines. They
won a game, they won a game. They're feeling themselves.
And we got to talk about this new celebration because
there's a lot of people questioning what does it mean
(17:13):
and why are they celebrating they're god awful. Well, there
was a team meeting a player called meeting, and I'm
not saying that's significant, but you hear about that right
where like a team struggling the golf players alost the
question does it ever do anything? And I did say.
I listened back because I love our best off, because
I'm a narcissist, and I self because I'm a fan
(17:34):
of our show. And I said, I don't know if
it does anything, but I'll tell you what. Won't do anything, nothing, nothing,
no meeting whatsoever, guaranteed to produce zero results. I promise you.
It sounds ridiculous, so it's better than nothing. I could
compare it because sports are sports, right, I mean, it
could be t ball, or it could be the big leagues.
(17:55):
There's still layers that have similarities. Right, Softball a couple
of days a week, it's my outlet, get out of
the house, hit a couple of line drives, feel the
ground ball still makes me feel good. And he doesn't
have to wash his sheets because he barely breaks the sweat.
Then I shower after every game. But I've noticed, Danny
that the team I play for Tuesday nights, we've been losing,
(18:18):
Like the team's not great. And I could tell the
bad news, bros. I could tell that there's guys that
had come in with just like a bad attitude, and
it's becoming less fun, oh toxic that's to the point
where I talk to one of the other guys. I'm like, Yo,
this isn't as fun. Losing's not fun. I was like,
should we all Like it sounded so corny, but I
(18:39):
was the guy that was like, should we all go
off like a beer or something? Because this used to
be a group of guys that we enjoyed playing every
Tuesday night, laughing and joking and you know, busting chops.
Now it's like, you know, ten twelve guys.
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Like yeah, no thanks, I want to be like the
Jorge Lopez reporter and talk to you guys right after
the game for the wrong emotion.
Speaker 1 (18:57):
I'm having the worst team in the valley. But the
comparison is there, though, rich because we did point out
we know it gets bad in the locker room, but
we really don't know how bad and how toxic and
how depressing it could be. When you have to deal
with the press, you have to deal with the constant booze,
the constant speculation of why you guys think so bad,
the mental anguish you have to go through. Did you
(19:19):
say anguish, I just say anguish.
Speaker 2 (19:22):
I know.
Speaker 1 (19:22):
Listen, there have been a couple times we've been working
together for what almost twenty years. Since we're like twenty
years old, he's still the youngest in the game, Dan Byer,
I don't know how we do how do we do it?
I don't know, you know, oil of La. There might
be maybe three or four times in the show's history
where you know, you get a rut where it's like, dude,
I want to kill Kavino or I want to strangle
Spot or I'm sure they feel the same about me.
(19:43):
And sometimes those call for a Yeah, guys, let's go
for a stake. Now, let's go for a drink, let's refresh.
Essentially a team meeting, because you don't think radio shows
are broadcast teams or anyone have said, hey, you know
where we're not clicking, let's let's do something. And Dan,
even from morale, like when you bring in Pete so
once in a while where we get buffalo wild wings.
Those things mean something.
Speaker 6 (20:03):
Yes, they do, They absolutely do. Just kind of gives
you a little refresh, a little restart. It also helps
your guys skin. When you have those two week old
oils on your pillowcases, it makes you look so much younger.
Speaker 1 (20:16):
Yeah, that's that's the that's the deal.
Speaker 6 (20:18):
And fresh, yes, or if it sits in the pillow
for two years, if you don't wash it unlike you know,
Sam does.
Speaker 1 (20:23):
Can I can?
Speaker 5 (20:24):
I just something came to me, great joke, the late
great Don Rickles. I think he was out of the
roast of Bob Saggott. He's like, Uh, if you want
to strike it rich in the oil industry, just go
over John Stamos's house and ring out his pillowcases.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Don Rickles is great. Who did the And by the way, yeah,
we all love Don Wrickles. Don Rickles tells a great
Sinatra story on Johnny Carson. Find out on social media later,
but to go we talked about how him and Sinatra
were pal so good. Don Rickles was one of those
great late night guests that that doesn't exist anymore. That
world always just come on in filling so good. Who
(21:02):
did the infamous? Wasn't it the Was it Hayward on
the Cups?
Speaker 7 (21:06):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (21:07):
Yeah, yeah it was. Jason was right hearing that rain
delay in the world. So we hear those stories about
there was this awesome team meeting they had. It really
switched everything around, and so you can't say it doesn't work.
I just think it doesn't always work. I mean again,
I'm not trying to be mister relatable guy. What if
you work in sales and let's say you have a
real crap quarter and everyone's like, man, you're struggling. Everyone's
(21:30):
in a bed crap mood at work. You don't think
if the boss was like, hey, guys, let's uh, let's
all leave work. We're going to Benny Hanna, We're going
us some team building exercise. You could say building camaraderie
and chemistry. You could say corny. I think stuff like
that does actually matter. And you know what the Mets
called the team meeting. And I want to give you
a couple of details next and tell me what you think.
(21:52):
We'll get to that. Plus the NBA finals are set,
We'll get to a little weekend hobnobin. What to watch

the Steve Miller estate probably loves eminem It's called Houdini.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
Lebron loves it too, he commented on it. Yeah, he
sure did.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
Wow already what did he say? Said? He was feeling it.
It's kind of hard not to. I feel like this
song was made for summer twenty twenty four, for summer
twenty twenty four, and for every roughly thirty five forty
something You're all because it's as I was, the dad's
grilling up in their cargo shorts. So I was, Sam said,
(24:38):
it's like comfort food eminem because it is very old
school sounding eminem. It really is a fantastic idea. If
you have not seen the video, I'm rate when Rich
and I agree it's fact. Welcome back to the Cavino
and Rich Show on Fox Sports Radio Live from the
tire rack dot Com studio. That's the spring jam of
the summer right now. Let me tell you the video
makes it even better. He dresses up like Robin from
(25:00):
That Man and Robin Again. It's a it's old eminem
with the blonde hair and current eminem. And the whole
concept of the video is what would eminem of the
early two thousands think of the world. Now, you know
who else is in that video? Who's that old guy
that Luca was yelling at yesterday on the sideline, that
old ohop dog? Yeah stop dog said it. Pete Davidson
(25:22):
has a pretty cool cameo. So the video alone entertaining.
And I was Sam, My wife said the same thing
as you, which is it's like comfort eminem and has
like a throwback feel to all the old school eminem fans.
So check that out, Hoodini Now back to my New
York Mets. They played decent yesterday. They came up with
(25:43):
a win, but after a players only team meeting called
by Francisco Lindor and J. D. Martinez had some interesting thoughts.
Speaker 8 (25:52):
Take a listen talking about the pressure and it doesn't exist.
You know, like I said at the meeting, you know,
no one thinks you're gonna win a hundred games? Is
I guarantee you can have everybody everyone we're going to
put all their money that we're not. We have no
pressure on us. You know, the pressure is on everyone
else right now. Let them have it. If we lose,
we lose.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
That's an interesting take. And listen by JB. De Martinez,
one of the New Mets, but a leader veteran Jose
saying that there is zero pressure. No one thinks we're
gonna win one hundred games. In fact, they're ten games
under five hundred. But do you think playing loose with
no pressure and that team meeting, I mean that's the
positive spin out. I mean, could it spark anything? Like
(26:30):
he's saying, listen, we have talent. Look at the roster
on paper, this is a good team. He says, it's
a team that can produce for runs. We have a
legit competitive team day in and day out, and as
a result, they've got nothing to lose. Now then to
turn it around. The season is still early, no question.
I mean, I'm not comparing it to a fictional Cleveland
(26:50):
Indians team from Major League. But you know that mindset
of like, eh, f it, what do we have to lose?
Let's go like I know what they lost or Lopez's
the You're in the same division. Hey, maybe that's a
turning point. Man, You're in the same division. Yeah, but
that's a sad story. You're in the same division as
the Phillies and Braves, who are arguably two of the
best three or four teams in baseball. What do you
(27:12):
think about you think the Yankees, Dodgers, Braves, Phillies. You
do make a good point, like, man, even our boy
Jorge Lopez is gone. We got we gotta turn this around. Now.
Maybe that was a wake up call that, look what's
happening here. We're casting people their jobs. This is baseball
is supposed to be fun. We gotta get on the
right page. Like, maybe it was a bit of a
wake up call, and as a result, Lindor did the
(27:35):
right thing got them together. They won, they played fired up.
They have good players, you know, clearly it's a chemistry
or fit sort of issue or a leadership thing, and
they're trying to take matters in their own hands. And
now out of nowhere, since this meeting, they've developed a
new sort of celebration dance. Let me let me there
(27:55):
are two little caveats as you talking about the celebration
dance or move. Lindor said that this has nothing to
do with Jage Lopez, like this player's only thing with
something they had talked about, like we need to get
on track. The Lopez thing probably just enhanced it. And again,
as a said Mets fan, they really are one of
the most disappointing franchises to root for, But we forget
(28:17):
that they're two years removed from being a one hundred
win plus team that we were talking about with the
Dodgers and Braves and Yankees and everything. The Mets had
Steve Cohen by the team and the sentiment was, man,
they're going to compete every year. Now, move over, Yankees.
There's two powerhouses in New York and the wheels fell off.
(28:38):
How could a team that won over one hundred games
two years ago. Go from Wow, Lindor Alonzo, Brandon Nimo,
Starling Marte, all these names that you know, young players like.
They added great players like Jady Martinez, Vienno Doors and
Alvarez the catcher. How can this team stink so bad?
I know they're lacking pitching, but everyone is so hey.
(29:02):
I'm not saying the Mets turn around, and I'm not
saying they even finished the season over five hundred, but
sometimes playing with that, who gives an f We have
nothing to lose, Let's do it. There's zero expectation. Everyone
thinks we're gonna be terrible, so hey, let's shock everyone.
Pressure's on them, as JD said, And we didn't know.
(29:22):
At least I didn't know because I don't follow the
Mets as closely as Rich does. I'm a Yankees fan.
But all of a sudden, I'm seeing the highlights and
I'm noticing, like Pete Alonzo doing this move, Lindor doing
this move, Like what the hell are they? They're really
overly celebrating when they think so bad? What's that about it?
But like I said, when your team is immortalized, what
(29:42):
are you supposed to if you keep that you almost
have to turn the patch. I'm not hating on it.
I'm just telling you that I noticed it right because
they had such a crappy week. They have such a
crappy sort of reputation, and all of a sudden, I'm
seeing them celebrating like when a guy gets a stands
up double. Some teams do the claw, don't. The Dodgers
(30:05):
do that thing where they wave their hands in the air.
There's always something, Yeah, there's always like a new thing.
The Mets a few years ago was the thumbs down. Yeah,
the Mets now have this thing where if you want
what I think, it looks like it looks like they're
slapping a booty three times, dude. Like it's almost like
exactly what I wrote down. I got boom boom boom.
So they have a new celebration, and I wrote, look,
you can read my notes. Ass slap. The new ass slap,
(30:28):
as we're coining it is the new celebration of the
mat of the Mets. And this is all based on
the Lindor team meeting that was meant to turn things around.
And a nothing puts a smile on the face and
lightens the move, and a nice ass slap but I
want to know your thoughts on it. Do you think
things like that work? I think it's better than nothing.
(30:50):
I think this builds camaraderie and chemistry, and it does
add a little spark, a little fire, a little little
semblance of fun. And I think that's what the Mets need.
And they if you got to fake the funk until
you finally get there, you got to you gotta do something.
They have a rookie coach, remember that as well, rookie manager. Yeah,
(31:10):
first time managing in the big so hey, there's a
learning curve. But yeah, But the story today is unless
you're really in on the Mets culture and you got
the scoop or your scoops Callahan, or you're part of
a Mets blog, the question is, well, what is the
what is the message? What does it mean? Nobody really
knows yet, which it doesn't bother you.
Speaker 3 (31:31):
What they did to Jorge Lopez, I thought that a
bad taste in my mouth.
Speaker 1 (31:35):
Ya.
Speaker 3 (31:36):
How do you go from that to suddenly, oh we
got a new handshake where everything's great the Mets.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
The Mets are making moves every day. If you're if
you are you? And when you find out the backstory
The backstory is if you remember he had, you know,
a little bit of a mental thing last year. But
he has a kid who's on a waiting list because
he's looking for some sort of some sort of organ
transplant or something, but he has a series illness. So
imagine your mindset when you're playing for the weakest team.
(32:04):
You're getting thrown out of games, you have a kid
who's on a wait list at home. I got it,
and then you get kicked off the team because of
a language barrier. That's tough. I mean then around it
sound like his the IRA was in the two, so
it doesn't matter. It was still wrong. But you know,
we said this the other day about football, and I
know it's the Mets having gained any great personnel, but
what do we talk about with the NFL. Sometimes you
(32:26):
need to hit rock bottom for the team to make
a change, because sometimes playing five bottom eminem sometimes playing
five hundred baseball, football, basketball, anything, you're stuck in this
illusion of, oh, you know what, maybe we're uh, maybe
we're one move away, and you're usually not, so you're
stuck in this purgatory known as five hundred. So maybe
maybe when the wheels fall off and it really gets bad.
(32:48):
You need that because otherwise you're like, we're not that bad.
I'll tell you what. In high school, any sports team
I ever played on, truth is, I never played on
a winner and I never played on a loser. Would
you believe my high scho baseball team all three years
I you know, varsity, you know, between JV and varsity,
all the years I played, we were probably let's say
(33:09):
we played twenty five games thirteen and twelve, twelve and thirteen,
fourteen and eleven, eleven and fourteen, never great and never bad,
and it's sort of boring. I talked to one of
my friends who is a beat writer in the NFL,
and I said, what's the worst And he goes, you
know what, the worst is when the team's mediocre. Because
if the team's great, you're writing great stories and the
(33:29):
fans are rallying around it. If the team's bad, the
storylines are fantastic because the team's that bad. The worst
time to cover a team is when they're five hundred.
So what we're saying, what we're getting at Fox Sports
Radio Nation, if you read between the lines, the New
Mets celebration is better than none at all. That you
got to start somewhere, right, Like I said, fake it
(33:50):
till you make it. We're coining it the ass slap
until we know what it means. Maybe it is. Hey,
let's lap some asses and let's have some fun. It's baseball.
But the fan, the team celebration, the chemistry builder. That's
the equivalent of someone bringing in donuts to the office
or pizza to the office. It's that team building, chemistry
(34:11):
building thing that everybody needs every once in a while.
You may need that in your relationship. Hey, things are
gonna dailed. Well, yeah, date night, you know that's that's
the equivalent of a team meeting. That's a great example
when your relationship with stale and you and your wife
have not gotten on in a while, and you're busy
with the kids and say date night. I mean like
you're getting dressed up date night. Now you're going to
(34:33):
Chili's date night. Even though that could be fun to
date night, date not. Let's go to Danby for an update.
Running late, Sorry d bab, Sorry, just having too much fun.
It's all right, guys.
Speaker 6 (34:51):
The the Cubs and Reds almost ran laid into extras, but.
Speaker 4 (34:55):
In the end, first ball swing, Let's run high in
the air right field, Frailey back, Freiley under.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
It, He's got it. That's it. Reds win it five
to four.
Speaker 6 (35:07):
Cubs did have the tying run on third as you heard, however,
couldn't get it across final call in the Reds victory
courtesy of seven hundred WLW and the Reds Radio network
tying run. Actually the out prior was called out at
the plate on a gun down by Elie de la Cruz.
Quite the rifle from short left to get the tying
(35:28):
run at home. But the Reds end up winning today
five to four. That was a great throw. He was
a dead dock. Yes, he was just a couple of
quick NBA notes. Piston's jam Troy Weaver's not going to
return next season. They got a new president of basketball
operations in Trajan langdon So. Weaver is out in Detroit.
Celtics said coach Joe Mizzoula said that injured forward Christaps
Porzingis is getting better, but wouldn't say if Porzingis will
(35:48):
play in the NBA Finals because of his calf injury,
and the New Orleans Pelicans are expected to defer the
first round pick given to them by the Lakers. Until
twenty twenty five. That means that the Lakers will their
twenty twenty four first round pick, which is number seventeen
overall in the draft. Coming up next month at the
French Open, third seed Carlos Alcarez, top twenty seven seed
(36:09):
in American Sebastian Korda in straight sets. Korda's sister Nelly
trying to make the cut at the US Women's Open.
She's currently at plus nine, twelve back of the lead
held by with Channie Meatschai, who's at three under projected
cut right now, is at plus eight, so kordas one
off that Robert McIntyre leads to the Canadian Open at
ten under par Rory McElroy. Eight shots back, guys, back to.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
You, Thanks so much, Dan Byers Cavino and Rich Lackman
at tyrack dot com Studios. And we got to get
to this run our test story Rich at a World
Peace there's a funny story about Circuit City, Hank type.

We'll talk some MBA, but got to remind you that

stay celibate.
Speaker 4 (37:41):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
I don't think you could be a sex symbol if
you haven't done it for nine years. I know you
love saying that, but being a sex symbol doesn't mean
you're having sex all the time. Otherwise porn stars would
be sex symbols, well, some of them are. It just
means you're attractive, means you're you're good looking. It has not.
Speaker 3 (38:00):
Their personal life has everything to do with Hay. Look,
you know we were talking about Eminem's new music. Lenny's
got a new album. I listened to it the other day.
Pretty good.
Speaker 1 (38:08):
I've heard some of the songs. Yeah, what is the one?
It's like a weird code. Yeah, keep it in your
keep it in your pants, Keep it in your pants.
He's celibate for nine years. Rich is wondering can you
be a sex symbol if you're not having any But anyway,
I'm always on the run. Love this song, Mama, said Covino,
(38:32):
and Rich is the greatest Fox Sports Radio Live from
the Tirack dot Com studios. Now, this show moves a
mile a minute, as you know. So before we get
into roun our test, Metal World, Peace and his Circuit
City story, I do want to point out a funny
story from last night. We saw Luca in a zone.
We see the Mavericks playing well. Props to them. They
(38:54):
take on Boston next week. I'm excited for it. We
move south fast that I had one last thought about
the Mets, and it just has to do with every
team in the National League for that matter, your American League.
Cavino arguably far more competitive. Right, there's some really good
teams in the American League. In fact, a top of
the wildcard chase. You got Baltimore Case, both with winning
(39:18):
percentages over six hundred, the Twins. There's teams that are
playing well the National League Wildcard other than the Braves.
And you know, you could argue the Phillies and the Braves.
You know, whoever gets hot at the end of the year,
one of those teams will be the wildcard. You know,
the other two wildcards are playing one game over five hundred.
If the season ended now, the Giants and the Padres
(39:41):
in the n West would be the wildcards at twenty
nine and twenty eight and thirty and twenty nine. So
even a god awful team like the Mets or Sinci
who's struggling, You're Arizona who's cold right now? Or Colorado,
even like these teams are only five games out of
the wildcard crazy, and you still have a half a
season left of baseball. You still have one hundred games.
(40:02):
So if you still have one hundred games of baseball
to go, it's like five games to make celibate. Since
eighty six, they haven't celebrated it didn't think and circling
back to that co TK four two, TK Fall two one,
A lot of people are speculated what it means.
Speaker 3 (40:17):
Yeah, it's Lenny Kravitz new song. Yeah, Blue electric Light
is the album Star Wars reference. But yeah, some cool stuff.
Definitely props to Lenny Kravitz, one of my favorites. Fun
fact about Cavino and Rich he was our first celebrity
interview as a show, Lenny Kravitz, and that was special
Celibate since.
Speaker 1 (40:35):
Early two thousand and four. I can't compete now before
we get on and move on. Michael Finley is the
VP of basketball Operations for the MAVs, and I just
want to point out the story because don't let this
happen to you this weekend when you celebrate and enjoy
your weekend. Lucas celebrating the victory yesterday. Dude plays his
(40:58):
ass off, and my Finley, the VP, is right there,
camera's on him and everything, and he takes the beer
out of Luca's hand, like give me that, and Luca's
like sitting there like confused, like damn, he just did that,
took my drink, took his beer, took away his celebratory
moment didn't let him have it, and I think the
backstory is they've been on him about his diet and
(41:21):
about how he takes care of himself, especially during this run,
but that's not going to help him stay off the beer.
Took it out of his hands right there, and Luca
did not look happy about it. I'm just saying I
can't imagine what that's like as a grown man. I
have someone take your drink out of your hand and
just like that's it. I know what happened to you?
(41:43):
Is the point I've only only gotten in confrontations with
adult sweating again. I'm not a fight. I'm not a fighter.
What I'm trying to say is I don't get an
arguments for fights much. But the few times I wanted
to strangle someone or get in a fight was when
another grown man tells me what to do or take
something away from him about They take your uh, your
(42:03):
your your barbecue thongs out of your hand and they
start manning the grill. I don't know about your barbecue thong.
How what are you cooking? He hands off my barbecue thong,
your barbara every time my grill and uh, you know,
when someone wants to man your grill in your own home,
(42:24):
and that's sort of insulting. So when someone takes your
beer in this celebration that you earned, I don't know,
there's something about that that says, hey, they may be
looking at it, they maybe looking out for you. But
if another girl, man, imagine I call it you and
I take where you drink like you know you've had enough. Yeah,
well it happened. That's that's not a move many would receive. Well,
when you do the bowl scroll later, you'll see what
we're talking about. But enjoy your beer this week. Hey, cheers.
(42:45):
All right, so this hilarious metal world peace story, we'll
get to it next. Right here, give you known Rich
