Speaker 1 (01:59):
So excited about that.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
But on today's show, dire Wolves Guilty Fandom Siblings, there's
a lot of random stuff. But I mean you can't
not start with Luca. I mean, the big story two
nights ago is that is he a baby?
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Be is here? Was he wrongfully accused?
Speaker 2 (02:19):
He went from crying to the refs on Tuesday night
to actually crying in Dallas Wednesday night. And there's two
ways to look at that in itself. The Mavericks welcome him,
but do they do that for him or do they
do that to show where a world class organization and
(02:39):
we do things right here. That's a debate in itself, right,
I know what you're saying. Is it for show or
is it genuine? Is it genuine? Because they essentially did
dump him, but they welcomed him back.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Did they do it for him or the fans? I
don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
It's like dumping a girl and then being like, hey, everyone,
look at there. She is the hottest, greatest girl. Didn't
he just dump her? When he's crying, does that mean
he really wants to be a Maverick still or is
he just caught up in his emotions. It's a special moment.
He's dealing with a lot. He's an emotional guy.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
There's that.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
And for me personally, if that were me, maybe I'm
too prideful. Maybe Vattos only have ninety six tiers.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
I don't know what it is. But if they had a.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Camera up my nose in that moment of an emotional montage,
I would have kicked that guy right in the sternum
and would have been like, dude, get out of my
face with that camera justin Bieber. However, I saw a
lot of people saying, you gotta like really applaud Luca.
He knew that he was being filmed, and he let
his emotions fly. He showed a human side of him
(03:45):
and a lot of players in that moment, Rich, they
request to see the video first so that when this
is really airing, they just like turn away and put
the head down or whatever, because it's an emotional moment.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
There's a lot of ways to look at this either way.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
The majority of people saying and we're saying, and I
know you hate this, and that's why I'm posing this
question to rich.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Last night he became a Laker.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Now you hate it when they say it about the
Yankees because I heard Max Fried earned his pinstripes this week.
I don't know if you heard that. Yeah, Max Freed
earned his pinstripes this week. He became a Yankee. Rich
rich An I rolling statement in sports.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
Don't get too upset, Rich, because the flip side of
that has been is he truly a Dallas maverick? Does
he really still want to be in the city of Dallas.
So we're hearing a lot of that today as well.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Is that why he was crying? You know, there's so
many ways to look at last night. I look at
it like, wow, that was really special because he turned
that an emotional moment and he admitted I didn't think
I could play after seeing that into a forty five
point bull bam in your face.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Take that.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Thanks for welcoming me back state forty five, six and
eight last night, six rebounds, eight assists. He put on
a show and as JJ Reddick said, he was a
little disappointed because he expected fifty points and he laughed
about it, but he could have put up fifty points
last night. Major props to him playing big in a
really emotional moment last night. But again, we saw a
(05:12):
human side to Luca.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
I don't know. I think they should arrested him for
the playoffs.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Yeah right, well, and what a way to clinch a
playoff spot. You don't have to worry about the play
in and now that you've got a couple of teams
creeping up right behind you. The Warriors had a big
loss last night, with none other than Harrison Barnes hitting
that game winning shot.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
And he you know, after the game, he said, you
know you move forward now now it's time now, it's
time to move forward, meaning that chapter's closed, And that
sort of answers the other question that we were speculating, like,
if he doesn't sign a long term deal with the Lakers,
will he ever go back to Dallas? Would they ever
bring him back? I think if he's saying we move
(05:54):
forward now, you don't look backwards.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Well, it would have to be with a new general
manager for.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Sure, possible based on the chess last night.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Oh lord, and probably a new owner.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
I would imagine that he's not going to go back
unless it's a clean house. And here's something you started
by saying, was this something Dallas did because they're a
nice organization. ESPN's Tim McMahon reporting that Dallas tried to
monetize Lucas's first time back by hitting up the major
sponsors that Luca and his team are in bed with.
(06:27):
The MAVs had lined up lucrative sponsorship deals for Wednesday's
game with multiple companies that Luca endorses, but those deals
fell apart after Luca's camp declined to give it its blessing.
The person that posted this said Dallas is shameless.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
So is that just disingenuous or is that just good business.
There's so many different elements. There's so many layers of this,
because I was just thinking, there's thirty of plus teams
in the NBA. If you were to not be a
Laker in a couple of years from now, whatever the
case may be, why go back to Dallas? Does he
love it there that much? You're the first person to say,
the more you see the world, you could live a
(07:05):
lot of places.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
I know why though. Unfinished business.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
That's why I hated the fact that Sodo moved on
because I feel like he left the Yankees in a
position of unfinished business. Dude, you made it to the
World Series with this team, and you're just gonna dip.
He wanted to deliver a championship to Dallas. That's all
he knew when it came to America. You know, Rich,
I have a close relationship to where you live in
(07:29):
Woodland Hills right now. You know why because for years
when I moved out to LA from New Jersey, Woodland
Hills is.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
All I knew. So he knows Dallas. I know what
I'm saying. A farm player and that was home. That
was home for him.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
I mean that you could argue that Lebron went back
to Cleveland at one point to finish unfinished business, and
Danny g made another really interesting observation based on the
thought of last night he became a Laker. Now you
can roll your eyes at that. You could say, yeah,
that's kind of true, man. And he put the knife
(08:02):
in his former team's back, and he scored forty five points,
leading his new team to victory, a major win in
front of his fans. But it might be the first
time that you saw another team leading the cheers in
an away stadium, and that was that was weird.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
Yeah, his first shot, everyone cheered, Yeah, when Lebron started
putting his arms up.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
And then you saw Austin Reeves and the entire Laker
team on the side there of the court by the bench,
all raising the roof with the crowd, and they were
like one with the Dallas fans.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
And that was so strange, well to the Dallas fans,
but one.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
One for all for Luca, and that was them supporting
Luca last night. So officially a Laker. I feel like
that gives him the juice moving forward, like.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
This is it now?
Speaker 4 (08:53):
You know you're mentioning like Luca, this was his goodbye.
I think the fans knew that as well, not just
for Luca, but the fans were also like, this is
our final hoorah with you.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
You know what, Mon has another great point, and your
phone calls and your feedback, your thoughts of last night.
It was a big moment eight seven, seven ninety nine
on Fox. You know what it's like if you want
to tie it to a relationship, we always say, and
he had a long relationship with the Dallas Mavericks saw
he knew it's the closing of the chapter, meaning the
you know in relationships, when you have a you need
(09:26):
to close the book.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
You need a closure. You just need closure. That was
the close for all sides.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Yeah, that was the closure he needed. Now he just
moves forward. I'm expecting an uber dominant Luca moving forward.
I mean three observations I've made. Number One, you always
need that first time a player comes back for the
last as you would say, I love how months he
said hoo rah, not.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Hurrah who the least who rahs who? I always say hoorrah.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
So it's not going to be like the militarily, it's
not going to be like that moving forward. So we
could all acknowledge that elis it's a one time thing.
It's the closure we all get, and not evenly. It's
you gotta ask yourself, what is the closure you get
in a relationship?
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Right? I always feel like I can never.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Truly get relationship closure until you see that person and
you know they're sleeping with someone else.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Yeah, sometimes it's the closure like you need like this.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Them yet, did you did you?
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Did you him? Then you know it's over. Yeah. But
if you break up with someone you're like, I don't know,
it's just not working.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
When you find out like oh, she's banging John from work,
that you might.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Close the door.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
I think seeing Luke close the door. But then when
she marries John from work, then it closed the door again.
And then when she has kids with John from work.
Speaker 4 (10:44):
It's it's flammed.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
That's double second.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
But I think last night the equivalent of you know,
seeing a girl you weren't sure is it really over?
When you see her can noodling on her Instagram story
and you know she's sleeping with the dude. That's you know,
the Lakers going to Dallas and those fans seeing him
in Lakers colors, putting up forty five and they still
cheered for him, and it's you know, but but it's
(11:13):
Nico's fault.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
So that's like the boss's fault that John is now
with the girl.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
It's it's listen. I think it's a beautiful moment for Luca.
I know did last night. I had so many different analogies,
but this is when I'm making up based on some
of the ones I saw. He went into someone else's
backyard last night, right, and he took over their grill.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
He's like, good, this is no this is my grill.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
He took He manned the grill last night, someone else's
house and scored forty five points used to his grill.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Nobody was stopping him from taking. The ex husband comes
back to his old house.
Speaker 5 (11:46):
He got kicked out of that, he got he can't
oh Cone anymore, and he's like, oh, I remember this grill.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
You know what that's like? Girls, ready, it used to
be my grill. That's still my grill.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
I'm divorced, right, that's like me going back to my
old house. Truck, you should you should do this just
strutting it like like like Vince mcmahin with strut Like
I'm like, I am who am I Coconna McGregor, No, whoa,
I'm naming all people that are.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Not at Rick Flairla.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
I'm strutting in here like I'm Rick Flair and I
am like, yeah, this used to be my house.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
This used to be my grill.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
And I pushed the new guy aside and I take
over my grill again.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
He essentially did last that last night in Dallas.
Speaker 4 (12:21):
But he didn't though, because nobody wanted this, Like they
were like, please.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Come cook for the last time. Take the growl? Do
you want us to clean it before you get here? Yeah,
that's true, that's true. That's from the fans side of
things though.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
That's what makes it so messy because.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
But Manzi, if I really did that in my you know, fantasy, yes,
people would be cheering me on too, Like, yes, people would.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Most people would welcome you in to take the grill.
All my friends would. Yeah, man, your grill, that was
your grill. Anyway, That's exactly right, exactly, that's what really
happened last night in the NBA.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
And again he's a fish Leah Lake or now I
think he's gonna play with a different fire. It's with
that closure, Rich, it's special one time and one time only. Yeah,
moving forward, he goes back there has not a big
deal at all. It's that one time. I'll give you
another great analogy we might as well keep. Let's try
to beat Colin Calherd with the number of analogies we did.
(13:19):
I got another one.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
You can't beat him in his own game. Stars. Here's star.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Here's another analogy. It doesn't need to be a relationship
or a sport. It could be your workplace. Who worked
in the studio before we were here? Give me like
an old show that was respected, Like at one point,
wasn't Jim Rome here? I don't know, like some old
old guy go some of them were dead? Like rush
right he worked here?
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Yeah, legends. Steve Harvey is someone that's alive.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
Steve Harvey.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Steve Harvey didn't How about the J Moore Show in
this time slot?
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Yeah, that's like if they came back here to visit
the people that were here a long time, W'd be like,
oh my god, Jay's here. He wrote red carpet, someone
own her food? Remember the good old days?
Speaker 1 (14:02):
And why is he in the bathroom so long?
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Why is there J Moore t shirts draped over the
seats and we don't have Covino and rich T shirts.
It would be one day where everyone that was new
would feel a little inadequate because everyone's like, oh my god.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
Jay z here, he's got his two dogs with him,
and and then then he went to.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
The bathroom again. And then the second time he comes back, everybody.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Like, oh, he's visiting again. Huh.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
It's like if you visited your old high school that
first time when all the teachers saw you, like, oh.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
My god, how's college? Yeah, and then if you if
you came back again, they'd be.
Speaker 5 (14:37):
Like second goodbye is always awkward, you know, like, oh okay.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
It's like when Coveno embraced Shaye and had tears crocodile
tears and gave him a goodbye, and then Shaye was
back the next week and was like, wait, I said
goodbye to you one.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Of our coworkers, and we already made a deal. When
he actually really leaves, I don't have to say goodbye again.
One of our favorite dudes here, Shay, one of the
young editors, was like, guys, I'm leaving.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
I hate, I hate to go, but I'm gone. We
all did give him like.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
A and then he's like, oh, by the way, Yeah,
I'm actually staying.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
I did feel like I gave too much of a
nice cabay.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Wait a second, I don't want to think of buy back.
So a lot of emotions last night. Very cool to see,
very cool to see the Lakers embracing Luca in this way.
You know he's on their team now, they got a
brotherhood on Siblings Day. Not to throw on the spot.
Can you can you think of another nice homecoming like, oh,
(15:37):
that legend went back home? Like I'm not thinking of
it off the top of my head, But did Griffy
as a red ever go back to Seattle? Were there
moments where yo, that was that guy, that was that
team's guy, Like I can imagine maybe like Piazza's first
time back. As far as homecoming at the Dodgers, like
we're talking lifer that moves on, like I don't think.
(15:57):
I don't think Emmitt Smith ever played in Dallas and
did he I don't know.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Well, when Michael Jordan was a wizard and he went
to Chicago for the first time, that was emotional.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
Yeah, that was a good one because it does have
to be a team that's been with the team.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Forever and goes b it's reserved for a star. Yeah,
that's been there a long time.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
And they go back. Let me bring this up too.
Like I said, I would not want a camera in
my face when in an emotional moment like that. But
he let you in. He let you see that he's
human and he's emotional, and that it meant a lot.
We're more composed than Bieber. Like I said before, did
you see Justin Bieber flipped out on the paparazzi?
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Yeah? Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
Let me ask you guys this question, because it was
a weird forty eight hours yesterday you were laughing Covino
because we had heard it on the Dan Patrick Show,
that Ben Mallor show, Your Boy Matt dog Russo was
screaming about it. You can't even root for him, he
whined so much. I had heard several guys say you
can't root for him, and then last night I'm watching
the highlights and I'm hearing this is why he's so
(16:57):
easy to root for, And I was like, huh. One day,
I'm hearing you can't root for this guy. That's why
the next day I'm hearing guys say, that's why he's
so easy.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
That's the weakest part of sports talk or the sports media.
It's the double talking that you hear to fit the
narrative every day. It'd be so much more genuine if
you just owned it, like man, he just proved me wrong,
plain and simple. Lucas stepped up last night and you're
right the day before he is impossible to root for.
I can't stand him. Now he's a hero again. It's
the fickle, the fickleness.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Is that a word?
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Fickleness fit the facality. I'm a sports fan and talking
head on TV, even though we love a man dog Russol.
He wasn't the only guy that was saying that. The
other thing I was gonna say is that I throw
no shade and I make no judgment on Luca forgetting emotional.
He's a fiery guy, which means on the flip side,
he's bound to shed some tears during a montage. But
(17:49):
I could be at a wedding of people I barely know,
wedding of people I barely know, you throwing a good
montage or sentimental music. Oh yeah, I might shed one
of my nineties it's bottle tears, Like I'm like, I
don't even know these people, and I'm getting an emotional watch. Yes, dude,
I'm an slide show or a montage. It's just an
emotional that you cried during one shining moment. I'm a disaster.
(18:10):
I cried ever since I had kids. I cried anything.
I cried at Tanner from Level on the Spectrum when
he got to meet Jack Black.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Yeah, so I so imagined.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
So imagine how he fell with all these emotions, watching
his highlights play and all his fans are cheering them,
He's yeah, give me a break, and his unfinished business
and his memories there, it all hit him at once.
There is I passed no judgment on him being emotional
net moment. Like I said, I watch videos of people
I don't know and I want to cry. I was Sam.
(18:41):
You have some fan reaction to Luca's return. Take a listen.
Speaker 6 (18:46):
It was a little bit of both, you know, happy
and angry, but to see some familiar faces here. You know,
I spent a lot of times with them, like you said,
you know, it was a lot of emotions. When I
woke up, I was tired. I didn't sleep much. I'm
excited about this game, and you know, I really appreciate
the fence, the way they reacted to me.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
You know, when you see a guy return to the
old stomping grounds, you know, they all do the same thing.
Whether it's baseball, basketball, football, they always find the security
guys they used to chop it up with. They're like, oh,
there's the ground crew guy. You know, they do their rounds.
It's that first time, beautiful homecoming security people.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
And then like I say, then.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Like I said, then, by the second time, it's like,
all right, we got that emotional moment out of our system.
And he also talked about it being time to officially
move on.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
Now.
Speaker 6 (19:34):
Everybody saw me the way I reacted to the video.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
You know, all these fans, I really appreciate it.
Speaker 6 (19:40):
Man, all the teammates I had, you know, everybody had
my back. So I mean, I'm the happy you know
this guy.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
I love the fans, I love the city. But it
sounds to move off. Oh, by the way, you know
what else is really cool.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
We sort of touched on it, but I want to
point it out specifically. You know, the ambassador Laken le Ken,
le Bron James, I ordered my doll.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
I'm kidding, you know.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
Lebron has a new Ken doll out right, of course
the kenmbassador, but this Lebron doll has extra ball.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Does it come with flopping action or not? No, no
flopping action.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
But I thought it was really cool and big of
him too to lead the charge and support Luca the
way he did in that moment. It really shows that
he and the Lakers have his back because I did
notice Lebron being one of the biggest and bigger cheerleaders
to the fans at that game.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
I thought that was cool to say Luca is a star.
But how long was he in Dallas?
Speaker 4 (20:38):
It was the start of his seventh year?
Speaker 1 (20:39):
Okay years?
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Yeah, So what would Luca have to do to not
be remembered as a Maverick? Because you know, when when
you think about stars that change teams, I always think
that there's an obvious team associated with every player.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
There's only a few where I'm like, oh, interesting, one like.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Is Peyton Manning, Like you think of him as a
cult but he won't Lebron, but he also with the cults.
But I still think I still think he earned his
his uh time with the Broncos. Like, okay, when you
win with the team, he'll be remembered with that. To me,
there's there's a guy that I feel like is the
toughest one of all. And I mentioned them already coincidentally
today Mike Piazza see Dodger who met?
Speaker 4 (21:19):
I think, yeah, it depends who you ask, right.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
There's very few times where you can name a superstar
and not know. Now Lebron is Lebron a Laker? Is
he a calf?
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Like? When it's all said and done, I.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
Mean, I think it depends your I can't speak for
Laker fans, but I would say he has to win
another one to be a Laker.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
I mean, I I still I still feel like he's
a calf.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
He's a calve, he's a calf, and then he's a heat,
and then he's He won more with every team but
the Cat, like he won one with the Cavs.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Watch your You're right though, and the fact that if
he wins another title with the Lakers, then that'll change.
Speaker 4 (21:51):
I think it will change.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Well, if Luca spends four years with the Lakers.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
But and wins, that will change. But he has to win,
and he has to win more than one. Like if
he spends the next decade with the Lakers and wins one,
I think people will still see him.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
As a map about Johnny Damon Red Sox first, but
he was he was a royal for so long and Yankees.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
I got one with the Yankees. Chris Paul? Where do you?
Where do you put Chris Paul? A clipper? Clipper?
Speaker 4 (22:20):
Isn't that crazy to think?
Speaker 3 (22:21):
Though?
Speaker 1 (22:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (22:22):
What about Ricky? What about a guy we lost this year?
Ricky Henderson? Is he an a Y's an okan for
that's coming from a Yankee?
Speaker 7 (22:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Another thing that I haven't heard anyone really talk about,
but I did see the highlight numerous times is the
mutual respect in warm embrace, the friendly embrace between him
and a d at the end of the game. That
was really really cool to So you got to point
that out too, because you know they're forever linked. And
you know what, here's the thought I had when I
(22:52):
was driving. I was like, I bet you could say
I thought what you were drinking? No, this is I
only drink on the weekends. So last night, nope, today nope.
I was driving in and I was thinking of that embrace,
and I was like, I wonder what Ad said to him,
and then imagine he said like, yeah, we're not going
(23:14):
to win this year. Man go all the way and
get me that ring, because you know AD's gonna get
a ring if they win.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
But do you want to ring that way? Why not?
Speaker 3 (23:21):
To me, it felt like, man, this has been a
hard few months for both of us, you know what
I mean. That's what it felt like to me.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Oh yeah, no doubt, no doubt. But I bet you
like joke because there was a little bit of a
joking at the end of it. I was like, I
wonder what was said at the end. Ad was like,
and I still can't find a house here in Dallas.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Yeah, but it.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Was nice to see all this attention, for all this
attention for us two guys, like, I don't know, what
are you saying those moments. It's like, you know, I'll
tie it back to the other story.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Rich.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
It's like, it's like seeing your girls new guy. Do
you really have animosity toward that guy if he wasn't
in the picture, you know, like.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Whatever, he didn't do anything wrong, did do anything wrong?
Speaker 2 (24:00):
My problems with with her, not you, And they were
big enough to be like, hey, we were traded for
each other, We're forever linked. There's a mutual respect here.
I got no problem with you. Let's bring it in
man and hug it out. And that was really cool man.
So it was a really really cool night, especially coming
after a day where Luca's being dumped on all day
(24:20):
yesterday for crying with the refs and he was kicked
out of the game. To come back and score forty
five points in a big game like that, you got
to give Pops with her due. Talk about a wild
twenty four to forty eight hours for Luca. All right,
now coming up, we'll take your feedback, a lot of
phone calls. We'll take your thoughts on Luca's very strange
forty eight hours, Ruca's big adventure from you know, villain

greatest homecoming of all time.
Speaker 1 (24:45):
We'll get to your thoughts on Luca.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Plus, it's National Siblings Day, so we have a deep
thought about siblings when we.

Speaker 1 (28:27):
Let's say hi to you guys.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
On a Rando fun Covino on Rich Thursday, Mike in Utah,
your thoughts on Luca last night?
Speaker 1 (28:33):
An emotional evening in the NBA. Hear, yeah, what's up body?
Speaker 8 (28:40):
Hey?
Speaker 7 (28:40):
Not much. My thoughts on this is it broke my
heart to actually start to like Luca last night. I'm
a Utah jazz man. All we have in Utah is
Utah jazz and.
Speaker 9 (28:49):
Now Jordan loves football.
Speaker 7 (28:51):
And to think back to twenty twenty two in the
playoffs when we had Donovan Mitchell and Ruby Gobert and
it felt like we were we had a chance to
go to the championship. Nothing broke my heart more than
halfway through this series, Luca coming back and then just
torching us and ruining all of our hopes and dreams
for the.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
Last Sometimes you just got to tip your hat. And
you know what.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
We've made this point several times. We touched on it
this week. There's nothing wrong with rooting for players. You
can't just all of a sudden root for the Lakers.
You know it's not your team, but you can root
for Luca and acknowledge how great he is it's like
the Dodgers beat the Yankees last year. I acknowledge how
great show Heyo, Toddy is. You know you can't deny it.
I think you're allowed to also say, Hey, if my
(29:31):
team's not in the mix this year, what storyline will well?
I get enjoyment that players do. I like, yeah, they're
fun to watch. Certain players just fun to watch. Let's say,
how did Jude in Virginia? It's up man, C and R.
Speaker 7 (29:44):
Hey guys, it's going on.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
What's up? Hey, buddy.
Speaker 10 (29:47):
I just wanted to say comment on how the Luca sings.
So if similar player was like a reunions with Freddy
frun with the Dodgers, like he was like kind of
wavering at the beginning, like after he got signed by
the Dodgers from the Braves and he hit a big
reunion as Atlanta and everyone was just chearing him on
and he got really emotional and like he went off
and after that, I feel like a switch just clicked
(30:08):
on him and he just.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Like really performed the Dodger Dude. That's a great example.
That whole thing with his agent.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
Remember, Yeah, that's a really great example. It's very similar.
Neither guy wanted to leave. They both left, they came back,
they got emotional, and they got their closure and turned
it on. I was gonna say, that should be what
Danny's hoping for. Yeah, you should be hoping for. Hell yeah,
you should be hoping for. Like it's it's the closure
one needs, like you said, in a relationship, a job
or anything. Maybe now Luca is one hundred percent honed
(30:38):
in and focus.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
There's no lingering, guess. Let's be honest.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
You know that up until last night he knew like, oh,
it's a week and a day.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
Or I need to see Luca do a statue of
liberty celebration now as the Lakers win the finals.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
All Ah, Freddy for even I. I just know that.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
You don't think Luca had that date on his calendar
in the back of his head. No doubt he had
last night mentally on his mind. O.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
Yeah, it's probably wait the return to Dallas. Suah. Maybe
that's why he was so belligerent the night before, just emotional.
Crazy man Steven in Washington State wrapped us up. What's
up man? Hello Steven?
Speaker 9 (31:12):
Hey, what's up guys. Yeah, I remember when Griffy came
back to Seattle. I was at the game when it
was Cincinnati. Read it, it's like two thousand and seven, yep.
And he hit two home runs, two bombers, and the
crowd cheered louder for him when he hit those home
runs than when we actually won the game. But it
(31:33):
was such an emotional experience. Is fantastic.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
I've been to games.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
Where a player comes back, not a magnitude of a griffy,
but I remember moments where, like their first at bat,
everyone was like cheering, and then by the second or
third that bat, it's like, all right, you're on the
other team now, hm, I think we got it past
us and this should be a very interesting postseason. How
will Luca react moving forward? Danny, I know you're hoping
in a big way. We shall see.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
You want to go to Massie, Let's do it update time?
What's up? Fellas?
Speaker 4 (32:01):
The Masters is going on, which is why Dan Byer
is not here. It's like a holiday for him and
join it at home peacefully exactly.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
And Justin Rose is in the lead. He is eight
under par through seventeen holes.
Speaker 4 (32:16):
Corey Connors and Scotti Scheffler and Rory McElroy are all
tied for second. They are four shots back, Connors and
Scheffler are done for the day. McElroy is through fourteen holes,
so still play in Round one in Major League Baseball
right now. The Rockies with taking the lead from the
Brewers six to two, bottom of the eighth inning. Bottom
of the sixth inning between the Blue Jays and the
(32:37):
Red Sox that are scoreless, the Royals edge the Twins
three to two. The Guardians completed a three game sweep
of the White Sox. Six to one was the final score.
And the Angels hit six homers today, two from Mike Trout,
two from Taylor Ward, two from Joe Adell in the
same inning, and they crush the Rays eleven to one.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
Angels are off to an eight.
Speaker 4 (32:57):
And four start.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
Can I make a prediction? Go ahead, and this is
based on nothing. Okay.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
I love that you bring Mike Trout into the update. Yeah,
I'm predicting a bit of a comeback season for him.
Speaker 8 (33:08):
Okay, you know he's played injured past, he has, Sophie's healthy,
still Mike Trout, same thing with Christian Yelich, Okay, because
he's hitting bombs yesterday. Yeah, we forget that these dudes
were mast dons in the game that were hurt. I'm
predicting if they stay healthy, they they've gotten off the
good starts, might be big years for them and they
may end up somewhere else.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
We don't know. If they played big yeah maybe.
Speaker 4 (33:30):
And with the Angels, they have a lot of young talent,
Like you really don't know what they're capable of, but
they just haven't delivered in the last couple of years. Lastly,
here Penn State defensive end Abdulla Carter, who may go
number one overall in the upcoming NFL Draft. Well, the
medical recheck in Indianapolis today showed that the stress reaction.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
In his foot is healing.
Speaker 4 (33:47):
There's been improvement. No surgery is going to be needed.
This is according to his agent.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
Back to you guys, maybe the no smartphone policy from
Ron Washington maybe working right, he said. Mike Trout and
some of the team leaders were behind less distractions.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
Yeah, why not?
Speaker 2 (34:03):
But have these young players bond, no TikTok, no instat nothing,
gotta shake it up every once in a while. Good
for run Washington, good for them. Now it is National

Do you have any siblings? Yes, an older sister. If

going to Ripkins just because I like the Billy Ripkins
f face cards. It's part of the collection, So I'm
going Ripkin Bros. And my brother is just a clown.
There's so many stories to tell about my my brother
top Jimmy. But sometimes your siblings will say a quote
and it sticks with them the rest of their lives,
like something dumb they say at a restaurant, at a
(40:08):
family event or something. Right, my brother went with my sister.
They're about around the same age. They went to a
club when they first turned like eighteen nineteen. My siblings
are a friend. I'm older, so I don't I never
hung with them that way.
Speaker 7 (40:21):
Right.
Speaker 2 (40:22):
My brother goes, Jimmy, where'd you go? Apparently he went
out to the dance floor. She goes, you would dance,
and he goes, no.
Speaker 1 (40:27):
No, I don't dance. I grind.
Speaker 2 (40:31):
Until this day, every time we see my brother, were like, yeah,
now Jimmy doesn't dan, but he really meant it.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
He grind grinds, he grinds. He's on the grind. I
mean this almost.

a living. So this guy goes around appraising grown men
and women's home.
Speaker 1 (41:01):
Oh, this is classic. And he was writing down in
his notes.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
He had heard the phrase Florida ceiling windows, but he
thought everyone was saying Florida ceiling windows, so for a
while he was noting, yeah, they got Florida ceiling Like wait,
He's like Keanu a little bit.

It's like, wait a minute, whoa you mean it's not
Florida's ceiling windows. No, it's Florida ceiling windows. Whoa.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
Oh, I have another good one about your brother. I
meant I got stories about my brother too. Which one
do you remember when you convince your brother remember red
box what you would get DVD's. Yeah, maybe you convince
your brother that they hired little people to sit inside there.
And he believed it. And he was not like a kid.
He was like twenty years old. Yeah, so that is true.
A tough labor deal right here.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
So excited about that.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
But on today's show, dire Wolves Guilty Fandom Siblings, there's
a lot of random stuff. But I mean you can't
not start with Luca. I mean, the big story two
nights ago is that is he a baby?
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Be is here? Was he wrongfully accused?
Speaker 2 (02:19):
He went from crying to the refs on Tuesday night
to actually crying in Dallas Wednesday night. And there's two
ways to look at that in itself. The Mavericks welcome him,
but do they do that for him or do they
do that to show where a world class organization and
(02:39):
we do things right here. That's a debate in itself, right,
I know what you're saying. Is it for show or
is it genuine? Is it genuine? Because they essentially did
dump him, but they welcomed him back.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
Did they do it for him or the fans? I
don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:54):
It's like dumping a girl and then being like, hey, everyone,
look at there. She is the hottest, greatest girl. Didn't
he just dump her? When he's crying, does that mean
he really wants to be a Maverick still or is
he just caught up in his emotions. It's a special moment.
He's dealing with a lot. He's an emotional guy.
Speaker 1 (03:10):
There's that.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
And for me personally, if that were me, maybe I'm
too prideful. Maybe Vattos only have ninety six tiers.
Speaker 1 (03:21):
I don't know what it is. But if they had a.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Camera up my nose in that moment of an emotional montage,
I would have kicked that guy right in the sternum
and would have been like, dude, get out of my
face with that camera justin Bieber. However, I saw a
lot of people saying, you gotta like really applaud Luca.
He knew that he was being filmed, and he let
his emotions fly. He showed a human side of him
(03:45):
and a lot of players in that moment, Rich, they
request to see the video first so that when this
is really airing, they just like turn away and put
the head down or whatever, because it's an emotional moment.
Speaker 1 (03:56):
There's a lot of ways to look at this either way.
Speaker 2 (03:59):
The majority of people saying and we're saying, and I
know you hate this, and that's why I'm posing this
question to rich.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
Last night he became a Laker.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Now you hate it when they say it about the
Yankees because I heard Max Fried earned his pinstripes this week.
I don't know if you heard that. Yeah, Max Freed
earned his pinstripes this week. He became a Yankee. Rich
rich An I rolling statement in sports.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
Don't get too upset, Rich, because the flip side of
that has been is he truly a Dallas maverick? Does
he really still want to be in the city of Dallas.
So we're hearing a lot of that today as well.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Is that why he was crying? You know, there's so
many ways to look at last night. I look at
it like, wow, that was really special because he turned
that an emotional moment and he admitted I didn't think
I could play after seeing that into a forty five
point bull bam in your face.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Take that.
Speaker 2 (04:50):
Thanks for welcoming me back state forty five, six and
eight last night, six rebounds, eight assists. He put on
a show and as JJ Reddick said, he was a
little disappointed because he expected fifty points and he laughed
about it, but he could have put up fifty points
last night. Major props to him playing big in a
really emotional moment last night. But again, we saw a
(05:12):
human side to Luca.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
I don't know. I think they should arrested him for
the playoffs.
Speaker 3 (05:16):
Yeah right, well, and what a way to clinch a
playoff spot. You don't have to worry about the play
in and now that you've got a couple of teams
creeping up right behind you. The Warriors had a big
loss last night, with none other than Harrison Barnes hitting
that game winning shot.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
And he you know, after the game, he said, you
know you move forward now now it's time now, it's
time to move forward, meaning that chapter's closed, And that
sort of answers the other question that we were speculating, like,
if he doesn't sign a long term deal with the Lakers,
will he ever go back to Dallas? Would they ever
bring him back? I think if he's saying we move
(05:54):
forward now, you don't look backwards.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Well, it would have to be with a new general
manager for.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Sure, possible based on the chess last night.
Speaker 1 (06:01):
Oh lord, and probably a new owner.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
I would imagine that he's not going to go back
unless it's a clean house. And here's something you started
by saying, was this something Dallas did because they're a
nice organization. ESPN's Tim McMahon reporting that Dallas tried to
monetize Lucas's first time back by hitting up the major
sponsors that Luca and his team are in bed with.
(06:27):
The MAVs had lined up lucrative sponsorship deals for Wednesday's
game with multiple companies that Luca endorses, but those deals
fell apart after Luca's camp declined to give it its blessing.
The person that posted this said Dallas is shameless.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
So is that just disingenuous or is that just good business.
There's so many different elements. There's so many layers of this,
because I was just thinking, there's thirty of plus teams
in the NBA. If you were to not be a
Laker in a couple of years from now, whatever the
case may be, why go back to Dallas? Does he
love it there that much? You're the first person to say,
the more you see the world, you could live a
(07:05):
lot of places.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
I know why though. Unfinished business.
Speaker 2 (07:08):
That's why I hated the fact that Sodo moved on
because I feel like he left the Yankees in a
position of unfinished business. Dude, you made it to the
World Series with this team, and you're just gonna dip.
He wanted to deliver a championship to Dallas. That's all
he knew when it came to America. You know, Rich,
I have a close relationship to where you live in
(07:29):
Woodland Hills right now. You know why because for years
when I moved out to LA from New Jersey, Woodland
Hills is.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
All I knew. So he knows Dallas. I know what
I'm saying. A farm player and that was home. That
was home for him.
Speaker 2 (07:40):
I mean that you could argue that Lebron went back
to Cleveland at one point to finish unfinished business, and
Danny g made another really interesting observation based on the
thought of last night he became a Laker. Now you
can roll your eyes at that. You could say, yeah,
that's kind of true, man. And he put the knife
(08:02):
in his former team's back, and he scored forty five points,
leading his new team to victory, a major win in
front of his fans. But it might be the first
time that you saw another team leading the cheers in
an away stadium, and that was that was weird.
Speaker 4 (08:22):
Yeah, his first shot, everyone cheered, Yeah, when Lebron started
putting his arms up.
Speaker 3 (08:27):
And then you saw Austin Reeves and the entire Laker
team on the side there of the court by the bench,
all raising the roof with the crowd, and they were
like one with the Dallas fans.
Speaker 1 (08:38):
And that was so strange, well to the Dallas fans,
but one.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
One for all for Luca, and that was them supporting
Luca last night. So officially a Laker. I feel like
that gives him the juice moving forward, like.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
This is it now?
Speaker 4 (08:53):
You know you're mentioning like Luca, this was his goodbye.
I think the fans knew that as well, not just
for Luca, but the fans were also like, this is
our final hoorah with you.
Speaker 2 (09:05):
You know what, Mon has another great point, and your
phone calls and your feedback, your thoughts of last night.
It was a big moment eight seven, seven ninety nine
on Fox. You know what it's like if you want
to tie it to a relationship, we always say, and
he had a long relationship with the Dallas Mavericks saw
he knew it's the closing of the chapter, meaning the
you know in relationships, when you have a you need
(09:26):
to close the book.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
You need a closure. You just need closure. That was
the close for all sides.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
Yeah, that was the closure he needed. Now he just
moves forward. I'm expecting an uber dominant Luca moving forward.
I mean three observations I've made. Number One, you always
need that first time a player comes back for the
last as you would say, I love how months he
said hoo rah, not.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
Hurrah who the least who rahs who? I always say hoorrah.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
So it's not going to be like the militarily, it's
not going to be like that moving forward. So we
could all acknowledge that elis it's a one time thing.
It's the closure we all get, and not evenly. It's
you gotta ask yourself, what is the closure you get
in a relationship?
Speaker 1 (10:09):
Right? I always feel like I can never.
Speaker 2 (10:12):
Truly get relationship closure until you see that person and
you know they're sleeping with someone else.
Speaker 1 (10:17):
Yeah, sometimes it's the closure like you need like this.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
Them yet, did you did you?
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Did you him? Then you know it's over. Yeah. But
if you break up with someone you're like, I don't know,
it's just not working.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
When you find out like oh, she's banging John from work,
that you might.
Speaker 1 (10:37):
Close the door.
Speaker 2 (10:38):
I think seeing Luke close the door. But then when
she marries John from work, then it closed the door again.
And then when she has kids with John from work.
Speaker 4 (10:44):
It's it's flammed.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
That's double second.
Speaker 2 (10:50):
But I think last night the equivalent of you know,
seeing a girl you weren't sure is it really over?
When you see her can noodling on her Instagram story
and you know she's sleeping with the dude. That's you know,
the Lakers going to Dallas and those fans seeing him
in Lakers colors, putting up forty five and they still
cheered for him, and it's you know, but but it's
(11:13):
Nico's fault.
Speaker 3 (11:14):
So that's like the boss's fault that John is now
with the girl.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
It's it's listen. I think it's a beautiful moment for Luca.
I know did last night. I had so many different analogies,
but this is when I'm making up based on some
of the ones I saw. He went into someone else's
backyard last night, right, and he took over their grill.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
He's like, good, this is no this is my grill.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
He took He manned the grill last night, someone else's
house and scored forty five points used to his grill.
Speaker 1 (11:42):
Nobody was stopping him from taking. The ex husband comes
back to his old house.
Speaker 5 (11:46):
He got kicked out of that, he got he can't
oh Cone anymore, and he's like, oh, I remember this grill.
Speaker 1 (11:50):
You know what that's like? Girls, ready, it used to
be my grill. That's still my grill.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
I'm divorced, right, that's like me going back to my
old house. Truck, you should you should do this just
strutting it like like like Vince mcmahin with strut Like
I'm like, I am who am I Coconna McGregor, No, whoa,
I'm naming all people that are.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Not at Rick Flairla.
Speaker 2 (12:09):
I'm strutting in here like I'm Rick Flair and I
am like, yeah, this used to be my house.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
This used to be my grill.
Speaker 2 (12:15):
And I pushed the new guy aside and I take
over my grill again.
Speaker 1 (12:19):
He essentially did last that last night in Dallas.
Speaker 4 (12:21):
But he didn't though, because nobody wanted this, Like they
were like, please.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Come cook for the last time. Take the growl? Do
you want us to clean it before you get here? Yeah,
that's true, that's true. That's from the fans side of
things though.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
That's what makes it so messy because.
Speaker 2 (12:39):
But Manzi, if I really did that in my you know, fantasy, yes,
people would be cheering me on too, Like, yes, people would.
Speaker 1 (12:47):
Most people would welcome you in to take the grill.
All my friends would. Yeah, man, your grill, that was
your grill. Anyway, That's exactly right, exactly, that's what really
happened last night in the NBA.
Speaker 2 (12:58):
And again he's a fish Leah Lake or now I
think he's gonna play with a different fire. It's with
that closure, Rich, it's special one time and one time only. Yeah,
moving forward, he goes back there has not a big
deal at all. It's that one time. I'll give you
another great analogy we might as well keep. Let's try
to beat Colin Calherd with the number of analogies we did.
(13:19):
I got another one.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
You can't beat him in his own game. Stars. Here's star.
Speaker 2 (13:25):
Here's another analogy. It doesn't need to be a relationship
or a sport. It could be your workplace. Who worked
in the studio before we were here? Give me like
an old show that was respected, Like at one point,
wasn't Jim Rome here? I don't know, like some old
old guy go some of them were dead? Like rush
right he worked here?
Speaker 1 (13:42):
Yeah, legends. Steve Harvey is someone that's alive.
Speaker 4 (13:45):
Steve Harvey.
Speaker 1 (13:47):
Steve Harvey didn't How about the J Moore Show in
this time slot?
Speaker 2 (13:51):
Yeah, that's like if they came back here to visit
the people that were here a long time, W'd be like,
oh my god, Jay's here. He wrote red carpet, someone
own her food? Remember the good old days?
Speaker 1 (14:02):
And why is he in the bathroom so long?
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Why is there J Moore t shirts draped over the
seats and we don't have Covino and rich T shirts.
It would be one day where everyone that was new
would feel a little inadequate because everyone's like, oh my god.
Speaker 3 (14:14):
Jay z here, he's got his two dogs with him,
and and then then he went to.
Speaker 2 (14:20):
The bathroom again. And then the second time he comes back, everybody.
Speaker 1 (14:26):
Like, oh, he's visiting again. Huh.
Speaker 2 (14:29):
It's like if you visited your old high school that
first time when all the teachers saw you, like, oh.
Speaker 1 (14:33):
My god, how's college? Yeah, and then if you if
you came back again, they'd be.
Speaker 5 (14:37):
Like second goodbye is always awkward, you know, like, oh okay.
Speaker 3 (14:44):
It's like when Coveno embraced Shaye and had tears crocodile
tears and gave him a goodbye, and then Shaye was
back the next week and was like, wait, I said
goodbye to you one.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Of our coworkers, and we already made a deal. When
he actually really leaves, I don't have to say goodbye again.
One of our favorite dudes here, Shay, one of the
young editors, was like, guys, I'm leaving.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
I hate, I hate to go, but I'm gone. We
all did give him like.
Speaker 2 (15:10):
A and then he's like, oh, by the way, Yeah,
I'm actually staying.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
I did feel like I gave too much of a
nice cabay.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Wait a second, I don't want to think of buy back.
So a lot of emotions last night. Very cool to see,
very cool to see the Lakers embracing Luca in this way.
You know he's on their team now, they got a
brotherhood on Siblings Day. Not to throw on the spot.
Can you can you think of another nice homecoming like, oh,
(15:37):
that legend went back home? Like I'm not thinking of
it off the top of my head, But did Griffy
as a red ever go back to Seattle? Were there
moments where yo, that was that guy, that was that
team's guy, Like I can imagine maybe like Piazza's first
time back. As far as homecoming at the Dodgers, like
we're talking lifer that moves on, like I don't think.
(15:57):
I don't think Emmitt Smith ever played in Dallas and
did he I don't know.
Speaker 3 (16:02):
Well, when Michael Jordan was a wizard and he went
to Chicago for the first time, that was emotional.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
Yeah, that was a good one because it does have
to be a team that's been with the team.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
Forever and goes b it's reserved for a star. Yeah,
that's been there a long time.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
And they go back. Let me bring this up too.
Like I said, I would not want a camera in
my face when in an emotional moment like that. But
he let you in. He let you see that he's
human and he's emotional, and that it meant a lot.
We're more composed than Bieber. Like I said before, did
you see Justin Bieber flipped out on the paparazzi?
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Yeah? Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
Let me ask you guys this question, because it was
a weird forty eight hours yesterday you were laughing Covino
because we had heard it on the Dan Patrick Show,
that Ben Mallor show, Your Boy Matt dog Russo was
screaming about it. You can't even root for him, he
whined so much. I had heard several guys say you
can't root for him, and then last night I'm watching
the highlights and I'm hearing this is why he's so
(16:57):
easy to root for, And I was like, huh. One day,
I'm hearing you can't root for this guy. That's why
the next day I'm hearing guys say, that's why he's
so easy.
Speaker 2 (17:05):
That's the weakest part of sports talk or the sports media.
It's the double talking that you hear to fit the
narrative every day. It'd be so much more genuine if
you just owned it, like man, he just proved me wrong,
plain and simple. Lucas stepped up last night and you're
right the day before he is impossible to root for.
I can't stand him. Now he's a hero again. It's
the fickle, the fickleness.
Speaker 1 (17:26):
Is that a word?
Speaker 2 (17:27):
Fickleness fit the facality. I'm a sports fan and talking
head on TV, even though we love a man dog Russol.
He wasn't the only guy that was saying that. The
other thing I was gonna say is that I throw
no shade and I make no judgment on Luca forgetting emotional.
He's a fiery guy, which means on the flip side,
he's bound to shed some tears during a montage. But
(17:49):
I could be at a wedding of people I barely know,
wedding of people I barely know, you throwing a good
montage or sentimental music. Oh yeah, I might shed one
of my nineties it's bottle tears, Like I'm like, I
don't even know these people, and I'm getting an emotional watch. Yes, dude,
I'm an slide show or a montage. It's just an
emotional that you cried during one shining moment. I'm a disaster.
(18:10):
I cried ever since I had kids. I cried anything.
I cried at Tanner from Level on the Spectrum when
he got to meet Jack Black.
Speaker 1 (18:16):
Yeah, so I so imagined.
Speaker 2 (18:19):
So imagine how he fell with all these emotions, watching
his highlights play and all his fans are cheering them,
He's yeah, give me a break, and his unfinished business
and his memories there, it all hit him at once.
There is I passed no judgment on him being emotional
net moment. Like I said, I watch videos of people
I don't know and I want to cry. I was Sam.
(18:41):
You have some fan reaction to Luca's return. Take a listen.
Speaker 6 (18:46):
It was a little bit of both, you know, happy
and angry, but to see some familiar faces here. You know,
I spent a lot of times with them, like you said,
you know, it was a lot of emotions. When I
woke up, I was tired. I didn't sleep much. I'm
excited about this game, and you know, I really appreciate
the fence, the way they reacted to me.
Speaker 2 (19:07):
You know, when you see a guy return to the
old stomping grounds, you know, they all do the same thing.
Whether it's baseball, basketball, football, they always find the security
guys they used to chop it up with. They're like, oh,
there's the ground crew guy. You know, they do their rounds.
It's that first time, beautiful homecoming security people.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
And then like I say, then.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
Like I said, then, by the second time, it's like,
all right, we got that emotional moment out of our system.
And he also talked about it being time to officially
move on.
Speaker 1 (19:34):
Now.
Speaker 6 (19:34):
Everybody saw me the way I reacted to the video.
Speaker 1 (19:38):
You know, all these fans, I really appreciate it.
Speaker 6 (19:40):
Man, all the teammates I had, you know, everybody had
my back. So I mean, I'm the happy you know
this guy.
Speaker 1 (19:48):
I love the fans, I love the city. But it
sounds to move off. Oh, by the way, you know
what else is really cool.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
We sort of touched on it, but I want to
point it out specifically. You know, the ambassador Laken le Ken,
le Bron James, I ordered my doll.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
I'm kidding, you know.
Speaker 2 (20:04):
Lebron has a new Ken doll out right, of course
the kenmbassador, but this Lebron doll has extra ball.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Does it come with flopping action or not? No, no
flopping action.
Speaker 2 (20:14):
But I thought it was really cool and big of
him too to lead the charge and support Luca the
way he did in that moment. It really shows that
he and the Lakers have his back because I did
notice Lebron being one of the biggest and bigger cheerleaders
to the fans at that game.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
I thought that was cool to say Luca is a star.
But how long was he in Dallas?
Speaker 4 (20:38):
It was the start of his seventh year?
Speaker 1 (20:39):
Okay years?
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Yeah, So what would Luca have to do to not
be remembered as a Maverick? Because you know, when when
you think about stars that change teams, I always think
that there's an obvious team associated with every player.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
There's only a few where I'm like, oh, interesting, one like.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Is Peyton Manning, Like you think of him as a
cult but he won't Lebron, but he also with the cults.
But I still think I still think he earned his
his uh time with the Broncos. Like, okay, when you
win with the team, he'll be remembered with that. To me,
there's there's a guy that I feel like is the
toughest one of all. And I mentioned them already coincidentally
today Mike Piazza see Dodger who met?
Speaker 4 (21:19):
I think, yeah, it depends who you ask, right.
Speaker 2 (21:21):
There's very few times where you can name a superstar
and not know. Now Lebron is Lebron a Laker? Is
he a calf?
Speaker 1 (21:27):
Like? When it's all said and done, I.
Speaker 4 (21:29):
Mean, I think it depends your I can't speak for
Laker fans, but I would say he has to win
another one to be a Laker.
Speaker 3 (21:37):
I mean, I I still I still feel like he's
a calf.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
He's a calve, he's a calf, and then he's a heat,
and then he's He won more with every team but
the Cat, like he won one with the Cavs.
Speaker 3 (21:46):
Watch your You're right though, and the fact that if
he wins another title with the Lakers, then that'll change.
Speaker 4 (21:51):
I think it will change.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Well, if Luca spends four years with the Lakers.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
But and wins, that will change. But he has to win,
and he has to win more than one. Like if
he spends the next decade with the Lakers and wins one,
I think people will still see him.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
As a map about Johnny Damon Red Sox first, but
he was he was a royal for so long and Yankees.
Speaker 1 (22:13):
I got one with the Yankees. Chris Paul? Where do you?
Where do you put Chris Paul? A clipper? Clipper?
Speaker 4 (22:20):
Isn't that crazy to think?
Speaker 3 (22:21):
Though?
Speaker 1 (22:21):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (22:22):
What about Ricky? What about a guy we lost this year?
Ricky Henderson? Is he an a Y's an okan for
that's coming from a Yankee?
Speaker 7 (22:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Another thing that I haven't heard anyone really talk about,
but I did see the highlight numerous times is the
mutual respect in warm embrace, the friendly embrace between him
and a d at the end of the game. That
was really really cool to So you got to point
that out too, because you know they're forever linked. And
you know what, here's the thought I had when I
(22:52):
was driving. I was like, I bet you could say
I thought what you were drinking? No, this is I
only drink on the weekends. So last night, nope, today nope.
I was driving in and I was thinking of that embrace,
and I was like, I wonder what Ad said to him,
and then imagine he said like, yeah, we're not going
(23:14):
to win this year. Man go all the way and
get me that ring, because you know AD's gonna get
a ring if they win.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
But do you want to ring that way? Why not?
Speaker 3 (23:21):
To me, it felt like, man, this has been a
hard few months for both of us, you know what
I mean. That's what it felt like to me.
Speaker 2 (23:27):
Oh yeah, no doubt, no doubt. But I bet you
like joke because there was a little bit of a
joking at the end of it. I was like, I
wonder what was said at the end. Ad was like,
and I still can't find a house here in Dallas.
Speaker 1 (23:38):
Yeah, but it.
Speaker 2 (23:39):
Was nice to see all this attention, for all this
attention for us two guys, like, I don't know, what
are you saying those moments. It's like, you know, I'll
tie it back to the other story.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
Rich.
Speaker 2 (23:47):
It's like, it's like seeing your girls new guy. Do
you really have animosity toward that guy if he wasn't
in the picture, you know, like.
Speaker 1 (23:58):
Whatever, he didn't do anything wrong, did do anything wrong?
Speaker 2 (24:00):
My problems with with her, not you, And they were
big enough to be like, hey, we were traded for
each other, We're forever linked. There's a mutual respect here.
I got no problem with you. Let's bring it in
man and hug it out. And that was really cool man.
So it was a really really cool night, especially coming
after a day where Luca's being dumped on all day
(24:20):
yesterday for crying with the refs and he was kicked
out of the game. To come back and score forty
five points in a big game like that, you got
to give Pops with her due. Talk about a wild
twenty four to forty eight hours for Luca. All right,
now coming up, we'll take your feedback, a lot of
phone calls. We'll take your thoughts on Luca's very strange
forty eight hours, Ruca's big adventure from you know, villain

Speaker 1 (28:27):
Let's say hi to you guys.
Speaker 2 (28:28):
On a Rando fun Covino on Rich Thursday, Mike in Utah,
your thoughts on Luca last night?
Speaker 1 (28:33):
An emotional evening in the NBA. Hear, yeah, what's up body?
Speaker 8 (28:40):
Hey?
Speaker 7 (28:40):
Not much. My thoughts on this is it broke my
heart to actually start to like Luca last night. I'm
a Utah jazz man. All we have in Utah is
Utah jazz and.
Speaker 9 (28:49):
Now Jordan loves football.
Speaker 7 (28:51):
And to think back to twenty twenty two in the
playoffs when we had Donovan Mitchell and Ruby Gobert and
it felt like we were we had a chance to
go to the championship. Nothing broke my heart more than
halfway through this series, Luca coming back and then just
torching us and ruining all of our hopes and dreams
for the.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
Last Sometimes you just got to tip your hat. And
you know what.
Speaker 2 (29:11):
We've made this point several times. We touched on it
this week. There's nothing wrong with rooting for players. You
can't just all of a sudden root for the Lakers.
You know it's not your team, but you can root
for Luca and acknowledge how great he is it's like
the Dodgers beat the Yankees last year. I acknowledge how
great show Heyo, Toddy is. You know you can't deny it.
I think you're allowed to also say, Hey, if my
(29:31):
team's not in the mix this year, what storyline will well?
I get enjoyment that players do. I like, yeah, they're
fun to watch. Certain players just fun to watch. Let's say,
how did Jude in Virginia? It's up man, C and R.
Speaker 7 (29:44):
Hey guys, it's going on.
Speaker 1 (29:45):
What's up? Hey, buddy.
Speaker 10 (29:47):
I just wanted to say comment on how the Luca sings.
So if similar player was like a reunions with Freddy
frun with the Dodgers, like he was like kind of
wavering at the beginning, like after he got signed by
the Dodgers from the Braves and he hit a big
reunion as Atlanta and everyone was just chearing him on
and he got really emotional and like he went off
and after that, I feel like a switch just clicked
(30:08):
on him and he just.
Speaker 1 (30:10):
Like really performed the Dodger Dude. That's a great example.
That whole thing with his agent.
Speaker 2 (30:14):
Remember, Yeah, that's a really great example. It's very similar.
Neither guy wanted to leave. They both left, they came back,
they got emotional, and they got their closure and turned
it on. I was gonna say, that should be what
Danny's hoping for. Yeah, you should be hoping for. Hell yeah,
you should be hoping for. Like it's it's the closure
one needs, like you said, in a relationship, a job
or anything. Maybe now Luca is one hundred percent honed
(30:38):
in and focus.
Speaker 1 (30:38):
There's no lingering, guess. Let's be honest.
Speaker 2 (30:41):
You know that up until last night he knew like, oh,
it's a week and a day.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
Or I need to see Luca do a statue of
liberty celebration now as the Lakers win the finals.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
All Ah, Freddy for even I. I just know that.
Speaker 2 (30:52):
You don't think Luca had that date on his calendar
in the back of his head. No doubt he had
last night mentally on his mind. O.
Speaker 1 (31:00):
Yeah, it's probably wait the return to Dallas. Suah. Maybe
that's why he was so belligerent the night before, just emotional.
Crazy man Steven in Washington State wrapped us up. What's
up man? Hello Steven?
Speaker 9 (31:12):
Hey, what's up guys. Yeah, I remember when Griffy came
back to Seattle. I was at the game when it
was Cincinnati. Read it, it's like two thousand and seven, yep.
And he hit two home runs, two bombers, and the
crowd cheered louder for him when he hit those home
runs than when we actually won the game. But it
(31:33):
was such an emotional experience. Is fantastic.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
I've been to games.
Speaker 2 (31:37):
Where a player comes back, not a magnitude of a griffy,
but I remember moments where, like their first at bat,
everyone was like cheering, and then by the second or
third that bat, it's like, all right, you're on the
other team now, hm, I think we got it past
us and this should be a very interesting postseason. How
will Luca react moving forward? Danny, I know you're hoping
in a big way. We shall see.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
You want to go to Massie, Let's do it update time?
What's up? Fellas?
Speaker 4 (32:01):
The Masters is going on, which is why Dan Byer
is not here. It's like a holiday for him and
join it at home peacefully exactly.
Speaker 1 (32:11):
And Justin Rose is in the lead. He is eight
under par through seventeen holes.
Speaker 4 (32:16):
Corey Connors and Scotti Scheffler and Rory McElroy are all
tied for second. They are four shots back, Connors and
Scheffler are done for the day. McElroy is through fourteen holes,
so still play in Round one in Major League Baseball
right now. The Rockies with taking the lead from the
Brewers six to two, bottom of the eighth inning. Bottom
of the sixth inning between the Blue Jays and the
(32:37):
Red Sox that are scoreless, the Royals edge the Twins
three to two. The Guardians completed a three game sweep
of the White Sox. Six to one was the final score.
And the Angels hit six homers today, two from Mike Trout,
two from Taylor Ward, two from Joe Adell in the
same inning, and they crush the Rays eleven to one.
Speaker 1 (32:55):
Angels are off to an eight.
Speaker 4 (32:57):
And four start.
Speaker 1 (32:58):
Can I make a prediction? Go ahead, and this is
based on nothing. Okay.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
I love that you bring Mike Trout into the update. Yeah,
I'm predicting a bit of a comeback season for him.
Speaker 8 (33:08):
Okay, you know he's played injured past, he has, Sophie's healthy,
still Mike Trout, same thing with Christian Yelich, Okay, because
he's hitting bombs yesterday. Yeah, we forget that these dudes
were mast dons in the game that were hurt. I'm
predicting if they stay healthy, they they've gotten off the
good starts, might be big years for them and they
may end up somewhere else.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
We don't know. If they played big yeah maybe.
Speaker 4 (33:30):
And with the Angels, they have a lot of young talent,
Like you really don't know what they're capable of, but
they just haven't delivered in the last couple of years. Lastly,
here Penn State defensive end Abdulla Carter, who may go
number one overall in the upcoming NFL Draft. Well, the
medical recheck in Indianapolis today showed that the stress reaction.
Speaker 1 (33:46):
In his foot is healing.
Speaker 4 (33:47):
There's been improvement. No surgery is going to be needed.
This is according to his agent.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
Back to you guys, maybe the no smartphone policy from
Ron Washington maybe working right, he said. Mike Trout and
some of the team leaders were behind less distractions.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
Yeah, why not?
Speaker 2 (34:03):
But have these young players bond, no TikTok, no instat nothing,
gotta shake it up every once in a while. Good
for run Washington, good for them. Now it is National

Like I was Sam.
Speaker 1 (37:48):
Do you have any siblings? Yes, an older sister. If
we looked at.

Speaker 5 (37:53):
With awake, right, you would be like, uh, yeah, Iowa,
Sam's the mutant right right right, it's my sister.
Speaker 1 (37:59):

That's not a conversation.
Speaker 2 (38:53):
You just got to throw it out there, like, you

you start with favorite sports siblings, and then you have
to we have to be impressed.

Speaker 2 (39:06):
Story about one of your siblings, and we judge if
it's funny enough, because we will we will buzz you
if it's bad.

thirty to forty seconds.

Quick, Yeah, make a snappy all right, we get you
involved every Thursday, Old School in fifty hits eight seven,
seven ninety nine on the box and at Cobino and Rich.
Speaker 3 (39:27):
Don't need the details, Covino of like, what would the
name of the restaurant that hit this story Italian players?

I think it was called uh, maybe it was called
Pans and that was the way it was. No, it
was Maria's no, no, no, I believe though, you know
the order to Margarita. Wait, maybe it was an old
fashioned hold on? What was I drinking again?
Speaker 2 (39:46):
I'm gonna start catch up sure, please, sports siblings. I'm
going to Ripkins just because I like the Billy Ripkins
f face cards. It's part of the collection, So I'm
going Ripkin Bros. And my brother is just a clown.
There's so many stories to tell about my my brother
top Jimmy. But sometimes your siblings will say a quote
and it sticks with them the rest of their lives,
like something dumb they say at a restaurant, at a
(40:08):
family event or something. Right, my brother went with my sister.
They're about around the same age. They went to a
club when they first turned like eighteen nineteen. My siblings
are a friend. I'm older, so I don't I never
hung with them that way.
Speaker 7 (40:21):
Right.
Speaker 2 (40:22):
My brother goes, Jimmy, where'd you go? Apparently he went
out to the dance floor. She goes, you would dance,
and he goes, no.
Speaker 1 (40:27):
No, I don't dance. I grind.
Speaker 2 (40:31):
Until this day, every time we see my brother, were like, yeah,
now Jimmy doesn't dan, but he really meant it.
Speaker 1 (40:36):
He grind grinds, he grinds. He's on the grind. I
mean this almost.
Speaker 2 (40:40):
Also my brother, who was trying to figure out the name,
he goes one time, what's.
Speaker 1 (40:44):
The name of that the big green guy in Shrek
were like Shrek that guy.
Speaker 2 (40:51):
I mean, I have a story about your brother. I mean,
go right ahead. Kevino's brother Tommy. He does appraisals for
a living. So this guy goes around appraising grown men
and women's home.
Speaker 1 (41:01):
Oh, this is classic. And he was writing down in
his notes.
Speaker 2 (41:05):
He had heard the phrase Florida ceiling windows, but he
thought everyone was saying Florida ceiling windows, so for a
while he was noting, yeah, they got Florida ceiling Like wait,
He's like Keanu a little bit.
Speaker 1 (41:22):
It's like, wait a minute, whoa you mean it's not
Florida's ceiling windows. No, it's Florida ceiling windows. Whoa.
Speaker 2 (41:30):
Oh, I have another good one about your brother. I
meant I got stories about my brother too. Which one
do you remember when you convince your brother remember red
box what you would get DVD's. Yeah, maybe you convince
your brother that they hired little people to sit inside there.
And he believed it. And he was not like a kid.
He was like twenty years old. Yeah, so that is true.
A tough labor deal right here.
Speaker 1 (41:48):
You might still believe it. I gotten there, you know. Yeah,
