Man? I got like.
Speaker 2 (01:51):
Mixed emotions across the board when it comes to sports.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
You got me feeling mixed emotions.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
I I kind of come into work today and I'm
all excited. I packed myself a little launch, I'll sandwich
a little bag of chick hips. My wife has a
few blind spots. My wife is fantastic.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Her choice of husbands.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
I couldn't ask her more. With my wife, she really
is like, but you're about to incredible mom.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
My wife is sure you want to pick this battle?
Speaker 2 (02:15):
They always say choose your battles wisely, right, Usually this
is one you want to go to national radio with
because I don't pick battles. I'm a kind man. I
never argue with my wife. She's the best thing that
happened to kind. You want to punch in the face,
am I right?
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Sam?
Speaker 3 (02:26):
So?
Speaker 2 (02:28):
I can't understand how my wife has no ability to
pick up produce. She packed me up plump, and she's like,
I don't know how to pick out fruit and it
drives me insane. How are we going to start with
the Green Bay packers? Are you sure you want to
talk about this? I'm just kidding, like hard plump. That's like, well,
(02:49):
can you share? I know how Rich's stupid cave so works, right,
So can you share your patented fail free theory of
how to pick produce?
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Please? If spot he has a no fail.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Theory, I have my ears are I don't know where
Rich is going he wants to share it with the nation.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
I think we're wasting your time. No, I don't.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
I hope I'm allowed to share this with the nation.
No fail, all right, so no fam. I told my
wife this, and she actually said, baby, you know what,
that's actually a pretty good analogy.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
I'll back you up.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
That's like it still two, like, yeah, this is like
a baseball, it's a baseball plumb.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
I'm like, babe, take a bite into them. I have
something to do with an ig model.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
So I said to my wife, I said, babe, you
do everything perfect. You're the best wife. You're the best mom.
I'm blessed and couldn't have made a better choice.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
You may be the best mom.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
I bought my mom a number one mom, a little
statue for ask ye third grad at the fair. I
bought it at the Mother's Day boutique. I said, when
you pick out plums and pears and any type of fruit,
especially like a plumber, a peach, feel it and compare.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
It to a fake boob.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
Okay, no, no, no, he's onto something. So you're talking
about stone fruit here? Yeah, thank you, Sam with the
pits in it?
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Yeah, I said, stone fruit.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
If you squeeze the outside and it's rock hard, like
a girl that got a bad boob job, that is
not ripe. Now, if you're if you squeeze it and
your thumb would break the skin of the fruit, give
the fruit off. That means that means it's like an
old saga that you don't want to eat it. Oh,
that's a perfect one. A good, A good plum or
(04:33):
is what did Sam call them? I love the stone fruit,
A stone fruit, stone fruit. Wasn't that the band you
were in in the nineties? Shut up stone sour fruit?
So I said, A good, a good stone tambourine for them.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Everyone, we're stone fruit. But you know what you're onto?
Something rich?
Speaker 2 (04:57):
I get so before we get into the NFL, just
a typical dumb rich analogy here. If you're trying to
pick out good fruit, it's supposed to have the firmness,
yet the squishiness of a perfect fake boom.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
I have a question, when did she buy this fruit?
Was this yesterday?
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Being immediate?
Speaker 4 (05:19):
Why would a supermarket carry stuff that's going to be
like too ripe a day later? So the only thing
we really want ripe are avocados.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
My wife, my wife has those are always at the front.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Has brought home hard avocados.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
They're like fake.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Boom, babe, that are too hard.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
The trick is you get a couple that are ready
to eat now and then the rest are for the
rest of the week.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Everyone was like this up by the way to tie
it into sports, It's like the dude that came to
the open court and his basketball was was too full
of air and that we sound, you know, to sound
I'm talking about for that extra hard Foods ball. It's like,
you gotta have a little give, not Tom Brady sort
of give.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
We got to have a little ball.
Speaker 5 (06:00):
Was like a little lopsided when it had too much
air in it had like an egg shaped to it.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Yeah, yeah, that's.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
A plum just not there done.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Those are plums are underrated.
Speaker 4 (06:10):
They're they're juicy under They got the crunchy skin stone fruit.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Sam, thank you, professor Plumb.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Yeah, well Rich, maybe maybe i'm just, you know, trying
to talk about anything except Nick Bosa's acl or maybe
I'm trying to talk about anything other than the Mets
on the outside looking in of the playoff hunt. Now,
it was a miserable weekend for my teams, the Niners. One,
you know, you won three and oh but you lose
Nick Bosa. So did you win and you barely won
(06:37):
barely one. Yeah, yeah, and I had my notes up
until the Bosa news. Me and the forty nine ers
barely winning, but they're still find in a way to
win that winning teams. Yeah, that's a good sign. And
then bam, the bad news about Bosa being out for
the season. Maybe maybe someone steps up, I mean stepping
up to the level of a Nick Bosa. Maybe not,
but there should be a couple of good tests. And
(06:58):
Niners are playing the Jags this week, which maybe could
be a win, maybe their four to oh, and their
first real test is against the Rams, which would be
the following Thursday night football. And then after that you
get a few players back, including George Kittle, so we
shall see.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Exactly all teams experience injuries. That's just the big ones.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
You want to get into it, things that made you
go Hm. Week three of the NFL. Sam hit it.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
He's screaming. That's not a good sign.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Sam, Oh, that's a different that's wrong.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
I take you know why he's right here entertaining. I
wasn't ready for that. I really I knew it was coming,
but I wasn't ready. Here we go fantasizing about plumps.
I have stone fruit here.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
We go, things that make you go, things that make
your goal.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Could you know.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
I also take it as a compliment when Sam gets flustered,
that means I feel like he's so happily engaged in
the conversation. We engage, he forgets, he forgets, he's squeezing
juicy plumps, just trying to trying to find that right firmness,
you know, that right level of perfect and he was
so engaged at Yeah, he lost track. So it's all good, Sam,
I'm with you. Let's welcome. I always Sam, Let's welcome.
(08:07):
Danny g super producing on the phone. He produces our
best of the week. He produces. He's a producer, by
the way, days removed from jumping through tables in Buffalo.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Dan Meyer's in.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
The house, guys, it's going to be back. It's great
to see you man. Thanks for chiming in on Friday,
bringing the fun to us here on the show. Spotty's
on the videos. We're all here on Fox Sports Radio
eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox and Now we
Include you Week three. Things that made you Go Any
observation that you made in the world of sports and entertainment,
primarily on football eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox,
(08:40):
right before we get out into football, which you'll be
ninety percent of our show today. Can I just vent
about fundamental baseball for you know? You could even set
a one minute timer?
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Yeah? Oh sure, Sam, Sam, you could, said a woman.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
I really just want to vent about like regular minutes
or uber minutes.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
All right, I have a time already, Should I do it?
Hit a one minute timer?
Speaker 3 (09:01):
All right?
Speaker 2 (09:02):
So the Mets are losing three nothing on Saturday, right yeah.
They tie the game up in the knife one out, okay,
Nimo strikes out. Can't put the ball play.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
If he Nimo, ain't him? Oh yo, you hate you?
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Put the ball in play. Mets win on a sack
fly and strikes out. Can't put the ball play bottom
of the tenth runner on second to get the free
runner start hit batter Francisco Alvarez doesn't bump them over
to second and third win. The game is tied three
to three because quote, he's not a good bunter.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
Get out of my face with that.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
I can't comprehend how in big league baseball a guy
can't quote be a good bunter.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
So he grounds into a double play.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
The game goes into the eleventh, Mets lose, and now
they are tied with the Reds. They're losing the tie
breaker if that would be the case. So the reality
is right now, the Mets are not your third wildcard.
If Cincinnati and the Mets play each other equally for
the final six, Mets are out. And I hate every
single thing about it. All right, yeah, now we yeah
(10:03):
conquered plums and fake boobs. We've conquered the Mets stinking
like Abe Lincoln. Now we got to get into the
biggest story I think of the weekend or shocker I
should say shocker of the weekend. Everyone's super Bowl bound.
Green Bay Packers lose to the Browns. That made me
say hmm immediately. Now, let me preface my weekend real quick, Rich.
(10:24):
I was at the Dodgers game on Sunday. Now because
I like the Dodgers, I hope they lose. I'm a
Yankees fan. But my daughter respectfully Danny g But my
daughter was cheering on the field. I was so pumped
about that her high school got the cheer on Dodger
Stadium field.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
On the grass. I was like, that's so cool.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
So I was at the game trying to watch the game,
but also keeping one eye on the NFL, and I'm
looking at I'm like, the Packers lost to the Browns.
The Browns arguably the weakest team they beat the Packers.
The Packers couldn't score a single point in the fourth
quarter and they up thirteen points to lose in the
fourth quarter. That made me say, hmm, it makes me say,
(11:05):
what's up with their offense? What's up with the Green
Bay Packers offense where they can't score in the fourth
quarter against the Browns.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
To watch that game might've been a different story than
just seeing the box score.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
You can't say super Bowl bound and you can't beat
the Browns. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Everyone has their trip ups. It was a road game,
and listen, it's why I lost my bill shock. It's
why I lost my big bet of the week. I remember,
I just had the Packers needing to win. We did
a teaser bet. I do love seeing Joe Flanco's excitement,
you know, still playing for something that's sort of their
super Bowl. To win in that way, I mean, that
was a nice win. It was a trash game that
(11:42):
the Packers should have easily won on a almost a
chip shot. Last second field goal, it's blocked some odd
quick momentum goes the Browns way, and I think the
Packers leave Cleveland like baffled and stunned. I don't know
if you felt the same way, dB. I know you're
always keeping track of all the game. That game was weird
all along. The Packers didn't do enough to put them away,
(12:03):
and they like Cleveland hang around and then just weird
things happened.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (12:07):
I know that green Bay fans are smarting over the
loss because you're like, how do you lose to Cleveland?
But really, the game, as you kind of lay out,
wasn't much of a game where it shouldn't have been
a game for as long as it was. So for
Cleveland to score those thirteen unanswered in the final three
to thirteen or whatever it was, you would have thought
that green Bay would have been up twenty to nothing
or seventeen or nothing.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
So that feeling you get sometimes you ever realize when
a game, dB is like thirteen six at halftime and
you're like that one team with thirteen they should be
winning by three touchdowns and they're only a touchdown up.
That doesn't feel right, but it ties into what we
were saying before about your forty nine ers. Maybe they're
not the best team, but they're finding ways to win.
The Buccaneers finding ways to win, right was let that
(12:50):
one slip away or a super Bowl bound team doesn't
lose like that through the Browns, they still find a
way to win. So I'm not saying it's over for them,
but I'm saying they need to make adjustments.
Speaker 6 (13:00):
Green Bay had fourteen penalties yesterday. Not that the Browns
were perfect by any means, but Cleveland's got a really
good defense. Offensively, they just haven't had things working. But
you can't allow that team to stick around and think
they have a chance. So putting up ten points is
ultimately what cost green Bay in that scenario, because twenty
would have done.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
It for you. In Cleveland, they couldn't do it.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Man, Hey, just so many great storylines unfolding in the NFL,
and that to me had a lot of people knocked
out of survivor pools around the around the country. I
caly imagine if people hadn't used the Packers yet and
they're in some type of survival suicide pool or something
that's that was probably a top pick.
Speaker 6 (13:41):
It was one of the top five picks. Seahawks had
a lot because they were a home against the Saints.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Yeah, you know what, I'm glad you brought them up, dB,
because they're second on my list. Seahawks dominated the Saints right,
forty four to thirteen. Rich you're forty nine.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Er three by the way.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
That game, by the way, Dan Buyer, I know you
probably watch it all just to bask in the glory.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
But that game was over in like five minutes. I
looked up in between nothing in the first quarter. In
between the.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Early and late games, I like was making food. We
had some people over. I went to the kitchen just
to put out some new chips and everything. I went
back in the living room, like twenty one nothing like that.
Wasn't even a game. People over must be nice. But
I didn't get invited. You not even a phone call.
And I didn't hear I get I get like annoying
phone calls, no invites.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
He didn't even call me halfway through like he did
with the fight. Yeah, I know you guys. Are you
guys are work friends, that's right.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
Yeah, you didn't invite Dan Bayer to boxing night, so
I said, I'm not inviting Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Thank you, thank you. Yeah, right, you know what. But
here's what I was gonna say.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
I was gonna give Danny's uh Dan Bayer Seahawks and
props saying they might be the best team in the division.
Now that Boasa is out, I think it's safe to
say in the NFC West, the Seahawks the way they
won this weekend might be tops over your forty nine
ers moving forward Seahawks two one. Listen, forty nine erstione defeated,
But moving forward, it's a little tougher take away, Nick Bosa,
(14:59):
your things look better for other teams in the NFC West.
Speaker 6 (15:01):
And I'll say this not to be that guy, but
if it's not for that block kick at the end
of Philadelphia, I think we are raving about the Rams
today going to Philadelphia and winning that football game. So
when you talk about that division, and I know you're
gonna get to that at some point, it's just it's
a loaded division and it's a short week. Seahawks and
Cardinals play on Thursday night in an NFC West match.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
I think I think it is a better division than
we think.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
And Dan Bayer, you nailed it because as an NFC
West fan, you know, with all due respect to our
friends that are Rams fans. I very rarely root for
anything Philly, but at the end there I'm like, come on,
win this game, give us, give us a give us
an L for the Rams, you know, would help the
Seahawks and Niners.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
And yeah, that was so sweet. I'll be honest.
Speaker 5 (15:45):
I also think if we look at the AFC West today,
we would be saying, look at that Broncos defense. dB
might have been onto something picking the Broncos to win
the AFC West. If they had hung on to beat
the Chargers, we would have been say, man, that defense
was even even able to hang on against Herbert. But
those couple of the field goals in the fourth quarter
won it for the Chargers.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
The same way the forty nine ers. And I'll say
this the same way the forty nine ers. They're my team,
and I'll be a man enough to admit they lucked
out on that catching the end zone against Dan Byer Seahawks,
and yesterday they just found the way to win when
they were not playing great with Mac Jones right, So
the forty nine Ers could very well be one and two.
They're three to oh, and the Broncos are one and two.
(16:28):
And could very well be three to oh no penalty
against Indy last week, and if they hold on to
beat the Chargers, the Broncos are three and oh. We're
raving about bow Nicks and Chun Payton and that they're
one and two. They're tied with the Chiefs, and you would,
in your mind feel like the Chiefs have been awful.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
Well. Props to Herbert. He's playing big well.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Madison beer got him dressing better before the game, got
him inspired with that booty. I guess something. I mean,
he's looking like a champion.
Speaker 6 (16:50):
That pass and catch by he and Keenan Allen to
tie it up, I mean, my goodness.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
And dB pointed out something else a common theme missed
field goals over the weekend.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
You mentioned that before.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
There's a lot of missfield goals, wockfield goals, locked field goals,
and that was a big part of the weekend. It
made us go, hmmm, do we downplay as fans how
important field goal kicker trajectory is? Because there were a
couple of people that pointed out during the games and
analysis and post game, like, yo, we noticed that he
(17:21):
had a low trajectory and we have a better chance,
like we assume the guy just kicks it. I'm not
saying we the casual fans like you just kicked the
field goal if.
Speaker 5 (17:28):
You don't get that ball up well, because a lot
of them have been working on the line drive kicks
for the new kickoff, so seems to be affecting some
of them on their field goal trip.
Speaker 4 (17:37):
No longer the kick you kind of have to shoot it,
start it low, so you can't have the power to
go in this end.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
So you're seeing some guys that it's not even dan
dan Byer. It's not even like they're jumping up high.
They're just putting a big ass paw up there and
they're they're hitting it.
Speaker 6 (17:49):
And I look like an idiot because you referenced the
Broncos penalty against the Colts in Week two, and for
some that don't remember, the Colts missed a sixty yard
field goal, but they got a fifteen yard penalty because
the leverage penalty. And I said to Kerry Rhoades that
Sunday afternoon, why are you trying to block a sixty yarder?
Like it's tough enough to make, just it's gonna be
(18:10):
a make or miss. But yesterday completely proved me wrong
with the various blocks that we had, the long kicks
that were blocked. So that is why you may get
a leverage penalty because you are trying to block them.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Can I could I point something out that only I know.
I know we're on in some East Coast New York
surrounding markets, but for all our friends that are Mets
and Jets fans, which is a sad existence.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
Did you see the.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Meme going around how the Bucks game winning field goal
and the Mets lost to the Nationals happened like simultaneously,
But we're previously like the Jets are winning and the
Mets that had like men on base and then all
within a second, Mets and Jets both pooped the bed.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Now it's a grumpy, crumpy grumpy.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Now we're gonna get to all your feedback, but I'll
kick it off with a tweety saw sort of summed
up everything I wrote down as far as things that
made you go all these mental notes. I made poppy
bender one poppy bender one on social media at Covino
and Rich says NFL recap of things that made me go, hmm,
it was the Sunday of suck. The Falcons suck after
(19:16):
smacking the Vikes. Saints are horror show of suck. No Burrow,
Bengals suck, Titans are a suckfest. Raiders can't suck enough,
Cowboys comically suck. Giants the suckiest of suck that ever sucked.
God help us. There's a lot of suck. So there's
a lot of teams that might be ass based on
this weekend too. Bengals might be asked without Burrow. That
(19:36):
was that was a daunting game for the Bengals because
you know, you assume like you could sort of hold
your and you may not win, but you could hold
your own without Burrow.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
But that looked like oh no.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
So yeah, there was a lot of like, oh wait, yeah,
a lot of sucks over the weekend.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Oh no.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
And you know with every suck, right, there's got to
be a team that stepped up, like, yeah, Dallas sucks. Hey,
the Bears played nice. Caleb Williams maybe better than people
give him credit for. I don't think people think he stinks.
I think Caleb Williams and good games, not a lot
to show for it until this this past weekend.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
You know, we have the patients.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
Of not even know the patients of a gen z
er that wants everything now Amazon. Now of my dad
who walks into a barber shop and expects a haircut
as soon as he sits there. If there's one person
ahead of your dad and he's like, I'm leaving, I'm like, Dad,
I thought you're going to get a haircut. Hey, waiting
around for what? When Kamino's dad goes to ihe you're
supposed to wait. When Kavino's dad goes to I Hoop
(20:38):
and they go yeah, ten to fifteen minutes, he's like,
I got Nope. My dad comes back with long hair.
I'm like Dad, He's like, they do eat people there.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
I ain't waiting around.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
So we have such little patients that, you know, we
finally saw perhaps Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams and what
they could do together once they start gelling. It's only
week three and the Bears are still a work in progress,
and I think that was sort of a cool I
thought that was a that was the biggest winner in
my book, and they were. There's some winners of Week three,
but I think the biggest winner was the Bears. Hope Bears,
(21:10):
the Bears Hope. It was a big one, like there's
hope there and over the Cowboys thirty one to fourteen,
something to celebrate at least, and Caleb Williams speaking of
two hundred and ninety eight yards, four tudies, four tuddies.
So your observations, there's no wrong answers. I got a
bunch of random ones too, Can I give you one?
(21:31):
Just to set up some phone calls? Let's do herd
of rumor over the weekend that Adele is a potential
halftime show participant. I'll like beat it with that. What
are you trying to put us to sleep? Adele? I
understand she's a generational talent. Oh my god, I got
time for Dell at halftime. Adele is squeakily talented. Come on,
(21:55):
Adele is so good. But like if you were to say, yeah,
I'm you know, your mom's going to Vegas and wants
to see an act or exactly like your your aunt
or a girl's bachelorette party, and they want to go
light and they'll see first to say no thanks, maybe
the first to say she's got a beautiful woice and
she's great, but not everyone's cut out for the super
Bowl halftime with.
Speaker 5 (22:15):
My old aunt Christina loves Adele that tells you everything
you need to know right now, No.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Way, no how, And I say that respectfully.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
That would be some disappointing No Metallica, no Taylor Swift,
no Miley, no Blink, wantity too.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
We're going with Dell Come. She might arguably be the
most talented, but wrong setting for that.
Speaker 4 (22:36):
Doesn't have a whole lot of like upbeat tempo. Like
there's a couple, but she needs. You need music that
has popped to it. It has like a baseline and you know.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Boom boom, I have a fun that's all. We're gonna
be up temple music. But it's not fun music.
Speaker 6 (22:48):
What if she gets in a beef with Drake months
before the performance?
Speaker 2 (22:53):
Yeah, now we're talking. So hey, those are some of
the things that made us go. We turn it over
to you Fox Sports. Ready, next, it's your chance to
tell us what you observed over this weekend, Week three,
and we'll get you fired up for the game tonight.

Cavino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio eight seven, seven
ninety nine on Fox, We're gonna play last one Standing,
giving away some prizes later. But we're talking NFL and
anything that made you go hmmm over the weekend. You
(25:17):
know what made me go hm when you look at
the Cowboys and we said the big winner as far
as like wow, good a good moment for Ben Johnson
and and Caleb Williams and that team just you know,
it went right right. You looked at that game and
you said, all right that the Cowboys, you know they're
not terrible. So well, the Bears put on a display
(25:37):
again said, you know, mid level team, you think, but
then you look at the Cowboys and you go, Michael
Parsons left, Ceedee Lamb is now injured. This is a
sort of stripped down version of that team, like, yeah,
you got Dak who you know tries to compete, but
that team they lack any type of star power.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
They're heading towards the ass category with the injuries, and
on the flip side of they might be asked that
they might be awesome. And there's a new Jones in town.
That's Indiana Jones, and I got to give him props
here because I always thought he was better than what
we saw in New York. And there's a whole story
(26:19):
about it that we might get to separately. But even
Saquon Barkley is saying that there's one dude that he
used to play with that he still roots for all
the time, and that's Daniel Jones. I'm sorry Indiana Jones,
because the Colts with Jones, I mean, he's putting up
record breaking numbers forty one to twenty over the Titans.
He passed for two hundred twenty eight yards one Tuddy
just looking like a totally different guy in a new
(26:41):
setting which is inspiring.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
In life.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Maybe it's just maybe you're not ugly, maybe you're not broke,
maybe you don't suck. Maybe you just need to be
somewhere else like Indiana Jones three. You know for the Colts,
gota give him props. I'm looking at our intro threat
on the YouTube chat. Yeah, Fading says didn't show. But
how about that Brown's defense. You tell me that defense
(27:05):
is an elite. They sort of shut down, you know,
the Packers kept them at bay the whole gamete. Well,
the Packers were in control that game until the fourth quarter.
Just it's not like they were putting up thirty or something, right, No, yeah,
I mean first week Packers looked pretty good. For every argument,
there's the flip side. So man, the Packers really sucked
it up. Or hey, the Browns defense really stepped up,
So props to them. All right, Let's get to the
(27:27):
phone calls and the feedback again. We're streaming live on
YouTube Covino and Rich FSR we do it every day,
so we have a live stream going on. Thank you
for that. And your phone calls are always fun and important.
Let's go to them. Let's say hello, eight seven ninety
nine on Fox, Starting Illinois with Baker.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
What's up? Baker?
Speaker 7 (27:41):
Hey, Baker, Hey, you comment on the fake Boobe conversation. Yes,
you guys are there's a caveat on the fas. Okay,
there's the solo cone and then the saline and the
(28:04):
hard ones, and they feel like they're real.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
No, no, no, you got you gotta be you gotta do.
You realize he's talking to a guy that has his
PhD in fake boobs Rich Davis. Yeah, the saline's the
hard ones. The silicone ones are the soft ones. Come on, Baker,
get your act together.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
And that would have a nice little Seinfeld reference.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
They're real and they're spectacular.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
My point was we were talking about picking up produces.
That's because we're all over the place on the show. No,
that's just you, buddy, Start bringing me into it. Sean Sacramento,
it's up, Sean.
Speaker 7 (28:37):
My tire Iraq pack.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
Shout out to the ti Iraq Chat.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
What's up?
Speaker 3 (28:43):
Man forget like and subscribe otherwise you know, Iowa, Sam
doesn't get his his his his his Christmas bonus unless
he gets one hundred likes every time.
Speaker 2 (28:51):
Yeah, I was Sam that people don't know if we
don't get if we don't keep improving our YouTube chat numbers,
Iowa Sam says that is a holiday fruitcake. No, he
doesn't like s equals one hundred pennies from me.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
You're not getting any holiday pitone this year. No exactly.
Speaker 8 (29:05):
There you got heard it.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
We don't get to one hundred lives by the end
of the show, everybody loses their dental plan.
Speaker 7 (29:09):
So get on those.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Appreciate it. It all helps, man in a serious uh,
in a serious way.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Anytime you're watching or leaving a comment or checking out
our bonus pod over promise, it all helps.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
What's up man?
Speaker 3 (29:22):
Hey man, you guys are the most interactive show on
Fox Sports. But really quick on this subject. Something that
made me go, hmmm, how important is kicking in the NFL?
Ask the Browns, ask the Eagles, ask the Chargers, No
matter you know how much they pay these quarterbacks, it
always comes down to kicking. And just really quick, man,
just to put a button on the talk about fake
(29:43):
versus real, the fad transfer next level, bro, You want
to talk about feeling real, closest thing to real as
you could get.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
Well, I always said it's usually my holiday analogy. You know,
fake Christmas trees are like boobs. If they're really good,
you can't tell like that. So anyway, but his point
on the kicker, Yo, it sounds obvious, but you're right,
the emphasis on all these marquee players. You're paying the
(30:11):
Miles Garretts and the Boses and the Micah Parsons and
the you know and the quarterbacks forty fifty sixty million dollars.
It's a place kicker. So many times Aaron Rodgers is
two and one because a guy on his team kicked
a sixty yard field goal in week one. You know
there's teams, but yesterday little block and then a kick
(30:33):
the other way.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
The Packers, right, Simon, yeaht minutes apart from each other.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
Dude, the forty nine ers got rid of their kicker
because he was costing them.
Speaker 5 (30:44):
It's let's talk about kickoff returns for a second too.
How about your special teams in general? Your boy Deebo
Samuel started off that game for the Commanders by running
one almost to the house. And the Commander's special teams
looked elite, and the Raiders special teams looked like some
position coaches needed to be fired.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
And I'll tell you what special teams and kicking, which
is part of special teams. That is we always talk
about that being the most underrated component of a team.
But now with the touchback, if your ball doesn't hit
that zone and it goes through the end zone, thirty
five yard line is a pretty substantial starting point, don't
you think. And I saw a couple of times yesterday
watching around the league, there were some kickers that just
(31:26):
booted it through the end zone and you're like, wow,
they're really quick to want to give the thirty five huh. Now,
I was at the Dodgers game rich watching my daughter
on the field cheerleading. Like I said, so, I had
one eye on the game, one eye on my phone
watching all the football scores and the games on the
red zone. But I got home in time to watch
(31:47):
the end of the later games and the Chiefs Giants,
And I know you think the Giants are ass No,
that was the stinker of a game. That was like
the worst game I watched. There was, you know, because
I wanted to enjoy some football camp. Scattaboo got you
excited three times.
Speaker 1 (31:59):
No, I mean had a pretty good game.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
Man, we ran I think he had sixty yards rushing
had a couple of good plays he had, but he
showed a lot of gusta, a lot of gusto, a
lot of potential, a lot of heart, like the type
of player that Giants fans would really really rally around.
And I think he made a real big statement yesterday
he did a backflip touchdown And I think what we're
(32:21):
getting at here though, is and I believe da Boll
said today that he's open to Dart being the starter
moving forward. So I think what we're seeing is limited time,
shorter leash on Russell Wilson that we may have thought,
and maybe some changes soon.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
Right.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
Well, with that said, we're going to take all your feedback,
but let's go to dB for an update. If there's
anything we're missing, DB's always got it what's up there.
Speaker 6 (32:44):
So I don't know there's going to be a change
in New York with the Giants from Russell Wilson to
Jackson Dart. Remember they also have Jamis Winston on the roster,
so it could be a change. But Brian Dabele was
asked today about if they were going to make a
change with Wilson. He says they're evaluating everything and working
through personnel decisions. See I told you, we'll learn a
lot more, probably on Wednesday. It's also on Wednesday, we'll
(33:05):
find out more about Commanders quarterback jad And Daniels, who
missed their win over the Raiders because of his knee injury.
Head coach Dan Quinn says that Daniels remains day today.
Forty nine Ers ed rusher Nick Bosa done for the
year with a torn ACL and his knee suffered in
yesterday's win over the Cardinals.
Speaker 1 (33:20):
This one's in his rightney.
Speaker 6 (33:21):
He actually partially torn the ACL and his rightney in
high school and suffered in leftknee ACL tear in twenty twenty.
Chargers running back Najie Harris done for the year with
a rupture achilles tended, while Cowboys wide out Ceedee Lamb
could miss three to four weeks according to ESPN. With
that high ankle sprain, he has expected to miss at
least Week four against the Green Bay Packers, which is
Sunday Night Football. Tonight is Monday Night Football. Week three
(33:43):
wraps up with the Lions and Ravens in Baltimore at
eight fifteen Eastern time. A couple of college football notes
ACC will move to nine conference games by twenty twenty seven,
also mandating that each school must play a minimum of
ten games against power force schools. Syracuse finedenty five grand
by the ACC for faking injuries during their win over
Clemson this past Saturday. In college hoops, auburnead coach Bruce
(34:06):
Pearl retiring after eleven seasons, yes two final four berths
for Pearl. His son, Steven, who was the team's associate
head coach, will take over on a full time basis.
Bruce Pearl says he is not going to run for
the US Senators. There's a vacant seat in the state
of Alabama, and Rockets guard Fred Van Vliet suffered a
towny cl according to ESPN, putting his entire upcoming season
(34:29):
in Jeopardy Guys Back to you, Thank.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
You, Geebe Debe.
Speaker 2 (34:33):
Who's on the outside looking in on our Fox Sports
Radio Guillotine Aaron Lewis now Tony.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
I think Bo Benson was one of the squads.
Speaker 6 (34:42):
Figure show, Yeah, Kevin figures, Oh, he's overnights Friday Saturday
and Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (34:48):
Kevin figures looks like he's on the outside looking in,
And I believe is Wakanda forever who's at that is
Ryan Smith? Ryan right, Yes, our boy Shay's not looking
too good either. So, by the way, Dan Byer, I
want to thank you because the more I've talked to
random buddies, we're shocked how people don't do this Fantasy
Guillotine League. It's so much more fun than the week
(35:09):
to week matchups.
Speaker 1 (35:10):
It really is. So thank you so much. You're welcome,
glad to have you in.
Speaker 2 (35:13):
All right, we got more Cavino and Rich and all
of your observations. Of course week three of the NFL,
and if you want to talk some baseball, I'm down
because I am so abnormally frustrated. I'm going to say two, yeah,
I got something to say about the MVP race. People
need to stop the nonsense. Stop it, stop it. We
got more CNR next right here on Fox Sports Radio.
(35:35):
Oh yeah, VIP in full effect. CNR on FSR in

be the greatest all of the land getting ready to
beat us again in last one standing?
Speaker 1 (36:03):
Or will he will find out? Maybe you'll win your.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
Chance to win in a few minutes, give one away
prizes on this Monday Fun Day, Super Fun Time with
CNR at eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox, I
have a non related football observation Things that made you
go home rich? Before we wrap up the phone calls,
how about your boy Jacobe Young of the Nationals with
those circus catches.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
I don't want to hear about it.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
Dude, that was in the Mets season could be summed
up in game tying home run robbed No, but just
from the bottom of the ninth inning. Not only did
he have that one circus catch office, yeah, he then
caught one that it was arguably going to be a
home runs. Arguably it was a home I mean his
glove was over the fence, but it was still an
(36:47):
insane catch in insane in the member that could have
very well been the play of the day. But you
know what, NFL is king, and it's time for our
tirec play of the day. The biggest upset I would
say so far in this NFL season, Andre Schmidt for
the win from fifty five yards out, two seconds beats
(37:07):
is back, kick is up and the kick.
Speaker 7 (37:09):
Is right down.
Speaker 5 (37:13):
It's right.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
There's the fuck Free base Bro Little hell Bays Time,
Green Bays copy the Green Bay Packers, And you gotta
feel You gotta feel bad for the Packers a little bit,
but not really. You gotta feel good for Smid the kicker.
Remember he had a really rough week one and that
there was fans calling for his job, but get a
(37:34):
new kicker. They stuck with him and he came through
big time.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Yesterday. You know they were singing fun times.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
And Cleveland again, Cleaveland props again to them over the
Packers's courtesy of Browns Radio Network, our tire rack play
of the day. For over forty years, tyrak has been
helping customers find the right tires for how, what and
where they drive. Ship fast and free back by Free
Road has a protection with convenient installation options like mobile
tire installation, tire rackt we tire buying should be But
(38:02):
arguably Jacobe Young in the world of baseball had some
of the greatest plays of the weekend. No gott to
look him up if you somehow missed him. The most
valuable the most important one was obviously his jumping over
the fence and robbing Francisco Alvarez of a game tying
home run, which may have honestly killed.
Speaker 1 (38:21):
Him that season.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
But that hacky sack one where yeah, of his love,
he kicked it up to himself like I've never seen.
That would have been if this was the eighties and nineties,
it would have been on Warner Wolfe's Plays of the Week.
It would have been on George Michael Sportsman, that would
have been on Mel Allen's ricebaw Funny sat Up, no doubt.
So hey, let's take your phone calls, your observations week
(38:42):
three of the NFL. We'll go to Tony in Oregon.
What's uptown eight Dony?
Speaker 8 (38:47):
Hey, but hey, I do have a take on the
fake versus reel. Okay, first, my sports take. I think
one of you said the Bears were the big winner
of the weekend, and I agree, But I also think
that a bigger winner because I think as a Bears fan,
mean about a million other Bears fans were about ready
to cancel the second half of our NFL ticket description
(39:10):
before the second half of the invoice and started in
October had they lost that game, So I think maybe
YouTube was a big winner of the weekend.
Speaker 2 (39:18):
You know what, I think you said the Bears. They're
one and two now, but you know who could be
one and two after tonight the Lions and the Packers
lost yesterday in dramatic fashion. So if anything, the Bears
were the big winners because the Bears not only one,
the Packers lost and tonight the Lions have to play
the Ravens. So you're looking at a division that could
(39:39):
be one game, Danny. You got a couple of two
and one team, a couple one and two teams.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
It's not it's for early in the season. This is
an important Monday night football.
Speaker 2 (39:47):
If you were the Bears and you were one and
two and you were staring at the Lions and the
Packers both at three and oh, that's a way different season.
You know they're both two and one, it could be
one and two. What's your second thoughts on?
Speaker 8 (40:00):
Oh, I always said if I could touch and feel,
then they're real.
Speaker 2 (40:05):
Yeah, big big Mike who runs his place, I believe
once said that those are his words of words and
we learned things here.
Speaker 1 (40:10):
Thank you, Ron and in the Cha Cha Rochester, whatsever
on Hey Ron.
Speaker 7 (40:14):

Speaker 6 (40:17):

Speaker 7 (40:24):
A real job. Yeah, it was really hot and pretty
ninetydel as chaired No Life and I'm like, we had
we pulled around.
Speaker 8 (40:31):
I'm like, wow, these are unbelievable, so hard so and
like a year later, I'm like, uh.
Speaker 3 (40:36):
They were fake.
Speaker 8 (40:37):
The whole year to figure out that they were fake,
and you know, and you were youngster back then.
Speaker 2 (40:44):
Or they weren't right, I don't know. I'm confused by
the Maybe they were just like the Plums. I yeah,

story to understand. But thank you guys, and catch the podcast.

I I kind of come into work today and I'm

a little bag of chick hips. My wife has a
few blind spots. My wife is fantastic.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Her choice of husbands.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
I couldn't ask her more. With my wife, she really
is like, but you're about to incredible mom.

is one you want to go to national radio with
because I don't pick battles. I'm a kind man. I

Speaker 1 (02:26):
Sam?
Speaker 3 (02:26):

how to pick produce?
Speaker 1 (02:59):
Please? If spot he has a no fail.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Theory, I have my ears are I don't know where
Rich is going he wants to share it with the nation.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
I think we're wasting your time. No, I don't.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
I hope I'm allowed to share this with the nation.
No fail, all right, so no fam. I told my
wife this, and she actually said, baby, you know what,
that's actually a pretty good analogy.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
I'll back you up.
Speaker 2 (03:23):
That's like it still two, like, yeah, this is like
a baseball, it's a baseball plumb.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
I'm like, babe, take a bite into them. I have
something to do with an ig model.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
So I said to my wife, I said, babe, you
do everything perfect. You're the best wife. You're the best mom.
I'm blessed and couldn't have made a better choice.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
You may be the best mom.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
I bought my mom a number one mom, a little
statue for ask ye third grad at the fair. I
bought it at the Mother's Day boutique. I said, when
you pick out plums and pears and any type of fruit,
especially like a plumber, a peach, feel it and compare.
Speaker 1 (04:02):
It to a fake boob.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
Okay, no, no, no, he's onto something. So you're talking
about stone fruit here? Yeah, thank you, Sam with the
pits in it?
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Yeah, I said, stone fruit.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
If you squeeze the outside and it's rock hard, like
a girl that got a bad boob job, that is
not ripe. Now, if you're if you squeeze it and
your thumb would break the skin of the fruit, give
the fruit off. That means that means it's like an
old saga that you don't want to eat it. Oh,
that's a perfect one. A good, A good plum or
(04:33):
is what did Sam call them? I love the stone fruit,
A stone fruit, stone fruit. Wasn't that the band you
were in in the nineties? Shut up stone sour fruit?
So I said, A good, a good stone tambourine for them.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
Everyone, we're stone fruit. But you know what you're onto?
Something rich?
Speaker 2 (04:57):
I get so before we get into the NFL, just
a typical dumb rich analogy here. If you're trying to
pick out good fruit, it's supposed to have the firmness,
yet the squishiness of a perfect fake boom.
Speaker 4 (05:12):
I have a question, when did she buy this fruit?
Was this yesterday?
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Being immediate?
Speaker 4 (05:19):
Why would a supermarket carry stuff that's going to be
like too ripe a day later? So the only thing
we really want ripe are avocados.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
My wife, my wife has those are always at the front.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Has brought home hard avocados.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
They're like fake.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Boom, babe, that are too hard.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
The trick is you get a couple that are ready
to eat now and then the rest are for the
rest of the week.
Speaker 2 (05:38):
Everyone was like this up by the way to tie
it into sports, It's like the dude that came to
the open court and his basketball was was too full
of air and that we sound, you know, to sound
I'm talking about for that extra hard Foods ball. It's like,
you gotta have a little give, not Tom Brady sort
of give.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
We got to have a little ball.
Speaker 5 (06:00):
Was like a little lopsided when it had too much
air in it had like an egg shaped to it.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Yeah, yeah, that's.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
A plum just not there done.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Those are plums are underrated.
Speaker 4 (06:10):
They're they're juicy under They got the crunchy skin stone fruit.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Sam, thank you, professor Plumb.
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Yeah, well Rich, maybe maybe i'm just, you know, trying
to talk about anything except Nick Bosa's acl or maybe
I'm trying to talk about anything other than the Mets
on the outside looking in of the playoff hunt. Now,
it was a miserable weekend for my teams, the Niners. One,
you know, you won three and oh but you lose
Nick Bosa. So did you win and you barely won
(06:37):
barely one. Yeah, yeah, and I had my notes up
until the Bosa news. Me and the forty nine ers
barely winning, but they're still find in a way to
win that winning teams. Yeah, that's a good sign. And
then bam, the bad news about Bosa being out for
the season. Maybe maybe someone steps up, I mean stepping
up to the level of a Nick Bosa. Maybe not,
but there should be a couple of good tests. And
(06:58):
Niners are playing the Jags this week, which maybe could
be a win, maybe their four to oh, and their
first real test is against the Rams, which would be
the following Thursday night football. And then after that you
get a few players back, including George Kittle, so we
shall see.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Exactly all teams experience injuries. That's just the big ones.
Speaker 2 (07:14):
You want to get into it, things that made you
go Hm. Week three of the NFL. Sam hit it.
Speaker 1 (07:22):
He's screaming. That's not a good sign.
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Sam, Oh, that's a different that's wrong.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
I take you know why he's right here entertaining. I
wasn't ready for that. I really I knew it was coming,
but I wasn't ready. Here we go fantasizing about plumps.
I have stone fruit here.
Speaker 2 (07:39):
We go, things that make you go, things that make
your goal.
Speaker 1 (07:46):
Could you know.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
I also take it as a compliment when Sam gets flustered,
that means I feel like he's so happily engaged in
the conversation. We engage, he forgets, he forgets, he's squeezing
juicy plumps, just trying to trying to find that right firmness,
you know, that right level of perfect and he was
so engaged at Yeah, he lost track. So it's all good, Sam,
I'm with you. Let's welcome. I always Sam, Let's welcome.
(08:07):
Danny g super producing on the phone. He produces our
best of the week. He produces. He's a producer, by
the way, days removed from jumping through tables in Buffalo.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Dan Meyer's in.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
The house, guys, it's going to be back. It's great
to see you man. Thanks for chiming in on Friday,
bringing the fun to us here on the show. Spotty's
on the videos. We're all here on Fox Sports Radio
eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox and Now we
Include you Week three. Things that made you Go Any
observation that you made in the world of sports and entertainment,
primarily on football eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox,
(08:40):
right before we get out into football, which you'll be
ninety percent of our show today. Can I just vent
about fundamental baseball for you know? You could even set
a one minute timer?
Speaker 1 (08:50):
Yeah? Oh sure, Sam, Sam, you could, said a woman.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
I really just want to vent about like regular minutes
or uber minutes.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
All right, I have a time already, Should I do it?
Hit a one minute timer?
Speaker 3 (09:01):
All right?
Speaker 2 (09:02):
So the Mets are losing three nothing on Saturday, right yeah.
They tie the game up in the knife one out, okay,
Nimo strikes out. Can't put the ball play.
Speaker 1 (09:11):
If he Nimo, ain't him? Oh yo, you hate you?
Speaker 2 (09:13):
Put the ball in play. Mets win on a sack
fly and strikes out. Can't put the ball play bottom
of the tenth runner on second to get the free
runner start hit batter Francisco Alvarez doesn't bump them over
to second and third win. The game is tied three
to three because quote, he's not a good bunter.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
Get out of my face with that.
Speaker 2 (09:33):
I can't comprehend how in big league baseball a guy
can't quote be a good bunter.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
So he grounds into a double play.
Speaker 2 (09:40):
The game goes into the eleventh, Mets lose, and now
they are tied with the Reds. They're losing the tie
breaker if that would be the case. So the reality
is right now, the Mets are not your third wildcard.
If Cincinnati and the Mets play each other equally for
the final six, Mets are out. And I hate every
single thing about it. All right, yeah, now we yeah
(10:03):
conquered plums and fake boobs. We've conquered the Mets stinking
like Abe Lincoln. Now we got to get into the
biggest story I think of the weekend or shocker I
should say shocker of the weekend. Everyone's super Bowl bound.
Green Bay Packers lose to the Browns. That made me
say hmm immediately. Now, let me preface my weekend real quick, Rich.
(10:24):
I was at the Dodgers game on Sunday. Now because
I like the Dodgers, I hope they lose. I'm a
Yankees fan. But my daughter respectfully Danny g But my
daughter was cheering on the field. I was so pumped
about that her high school got the cheer on Dodger
Stadium field.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
On the grass. I was like, that's so cool.
Speaker 2 (10:42):
So I was at the game trying to watch the game,
but also keeping one eye on the NFL, and I'm
looking at I'm like, the Packers lost to the Browns.
The Browns arguably the weakest team they beat the Packers.
The Packers couldn't score a single point in the fourth
quarter and they up thirteen points to lose in the
fourth quarter. That made me say, hmm, it makes me say,
(11:05):
what's up with their offense? What's up with the Green
Bay Packers offense where they can't score in the fourth
quarter against the Browns.
Speaker 1 (11:12):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (11:12):
To watch that game might've been a different story than
just seeing the box score.
Speaker 1 (11:16):
You can't say super Bowl bound and you can't beat
the Browns. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2 (11:20):
Everyone has their trip ups. It was a road game,
and listen, it's why I lost my bill shock. It's
why I lost my big bet of the week. I remember,
I just had the Packers needing to win. We did
a teaser bet. I do love seeing Joe Flanco's excitement,
you know, still playing for something that's sort of their
super Bowl. To win in that way, I mean, that
was a nice win. It was a trash game that
(11:42):
the Packers should have easily won on a almost a
chip shot. Last second field goal, it's blocked some odd
quick momentum goes the Browns way, and I think the
Packers leave Cleveland like baffled and stunned. I don't know
if you felt the same way, dB. I know you're
always keeping track of all the game. That game was weird
all along. The Packers didn't do enough to put them away,
(12:03):
and they like Cleveland hang around and then just weird
things happened.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (12:07):
I know that green Bay fans are smarting over the
loss because you're like, how do you lose to Cleveland?
But really, the game, as you kind of lay out,
wasn't much of a game where it shouldn't have been
a game for as long as it was. So for
Cleveland to score those thirteen unanswered in the final three
to thirteen or whatever it was, you would have thought
that green Bay would have been up twenty to nothing
or seventeen or nothing.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
So that feeling you get sometimes you ever realize when
a game, dB is like thirteen six at halftime and
you're like that one team with thirteen they should be
winning by three touchdowns and they're only a touchdown up.
That doesn't feel right, but it ties into what we
were saying before about your forty nine ers. Maybe they're
not the best team, but they're finding ways to win.
The Buccaneers finding ways to win, right was let that
(12:50):
one slip away or a super Bowl bound team doesn't
lose like that through the Browns, they still find a
way to win. So I'm not saying it's over for them,
but I'm saying they need to make adjustments.
Speaker 6 (13:00):
Green Bay had fourteen penalties yesterday. Not that the Browns
were perfect by any means, but Cleveland's got a really
good defense. Offensively, they just haven't had things working. But
you can't allow that team to stick around and think
they have a chance. So putting up ten points is
ultimately what cost green Bay in that scenario, because twenty
would have done.
Speaker 1 (13:20):
It for you. In Cleveland, they couldn't do it.
Speaker 2 (13:22):
Man, Hey, just so many great storylines unfolding in the NFL,
and that to me had a lot of people knocked
out of survivor pools around the around the country. I
caly imagine if people hadn't used the Packers yet and
they're in some type of survival suicide pool or something
that's that was probably a top pick.
Speaker 6 (13:41):
It was one of the top five picks. Seahawks had
a lot because they were a home against the Saints.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Yeah, you know what, I'm glad you brought them up, dB,
because they're second on my list. Seahawks dominated the Saints right,
forty four to thirteen. Rich you're forty nine.
Speaker 1 (13:53):
Er three by the way.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
That game, by the way, Dan Buyer, I know you
probably watch it all just to bask in the glory.
Speaker 1 (13:58):
But that game was over in like five minutes. I
looked up in between nothing in the first quarter. In
between the.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
Early and late games, I like was making food. We
had some people over. I went to the kitchen just
to put out some new chips and everything. I went
back in the living room, like twenty one nothing like that.
Wasn't even a game. People over must be nice. But
I didn't get invited. You not even a phone call.
And I didn't hear I get I get like annoying
phone calls, no invites.
Speaker 1 (14:22):
He didn't even call me halfway through like he did
with the fight. Yeah, I know you guys. Are you
guys are work friends, that's right.
Speaker 2 (14:27):
Yeah, you didn't invite Dan Bayer to boxing night, so
I said, I'm not inviting Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
Thank you, thank you. Yeah, right, you know what. But
here's what I was gonna say.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
I was gonna give Danny's uh Dan Bayer Seahawks and
props saying they might be the best team in the division.
Now that Boasa is out, I think it's safe to
say in the NFC West, the Seahawks the way they
won this weekend might be tops over your forty nine
ers moving forward Seahawks two one. Listen, forty nine erstione defeated,
But moving forward, it's a little tougher take away, Nick Bosa,
(14:59):
your things look better for other teams in the NFC West.
Speaker 6 (15:01):
And I'll say this not to be that guy, but
if it's not for that block kick at the end
of Philadelphia, I think we are raving about the Rams
today going to Philadelphia and winning that football game. So
when you talk about that division, and I know you're
gonna get to that at some point, it's just it's
a loaded division and it's a short week. Seahawks and
Cardinals play on Thursday night in an NFC West match.
Speaker 1 (15:20):
I think I think it is a better division than
we think.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
And Dan Bayer, you nailed it because as an NFC
West fan, you know, with all due respect to our
friends that are Rams fans. I very rarely root for
anything Philly, but at the end there I'm like, come on,
win this game, give us, give us a give us
an L for the Rams, you know, would help the
Seahawks and Niners.
Speaker 1 (15:43):
And yeah, that was so sweet. I'll be honest.
Speaker 5 (15:45):
I also think if we look at the AFC West today,
we would be saying, look at that Broncos defense. dB
might have been onto something picking the Broncos to win
the AFC West. If they had hung on to beat
the Chargers, we would have been say, man, that defense
was even even able to hang on against Herbert. But
those couple of the field goals in the fourth quarter
won it for the Chargers.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
The same way the forty nine ers. And I'll say
this the same way the forty nine ers. They're my team,
and I'll be a man enough to admit they lucked
out on that catching the end zone against Dan Byer Seahawks,
and yesterday they just found the way to win when
they were not playing great with Mac Jones right, So
the forty nine Ers could very well be one and two.
They're three to oh, and the Broncos are one and two.
(16:28):
And could very well be three to oh no penalty
against Indy last week, and if they hold on to
beat the Chargers, the Broncos are three and oh. We're
raving about bow Nicks and Chun Payton and that they're
one and two. They're tied with the Chiefs, and you would,
in your mind feel like the Chiefs have been awful.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
Well. Props to Herbert. He's playing big well.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Madison beer got him dressing better before the game, got
him inspired with that booty. I guess something. I mean,
he's looking like a champion.
Speaker 6 (16:50):
That pass and catch by he and Keenan Allen to
tie it up, I mean, my goodness.
Speaker 2 (16:55):
And dB pointed out something else a common theme missed
field goals over the weekend.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
You mentioned that before.
Speaker 2 (17:00):
There's a lot of missfield goals, wockfield goals, locked field goals,
and that was a big part of the weekend. It
made us go, hmmm, do we downplay as fans how
important field goal kicker trajectory is? Because there were a
couple of people that pointed out during the games and
analysis and post game, like, yo, we noticed that he
(17:21):
had a low trajectory and we have a better chance,
like we assume the guy just kicks it. I'm not
saying we the casual fans like you just kicked the
field goal if.
Speaker 5 (17:28):
You don't get that ball up well, because a lot
of them have been working on the line drive kicks
for the new kickoff, so seems to be affecting some
of them on their field goal trip.
Speaker 4 (17:37):
No longer the kick you kind of have to shoot it,
start it low, so you can't have the power to
go in this end.
Speaker 2 (17:41):
So you're seeing some guys that it's not even dan
dan Byer. It's not even like they're jumping up high.
They're just putting a big ass paw up there and
they're they're hitting it.
Speaker 6 (17:49):
And I look like an idiot because you referenced the
Broncos penalty against the Colts in Week two, and for
some that don't remember, the Colts missed a sixty yard
field goal, but they got a fifteen yard penalty because
the leverage penalty. And I said to Kerry Rhoades that
Sunday afternoon, why are you trying to block a sixty yarder?
Like it's tough enough to make, just it's gonna be
(18:10):
a make or miss. But yesterday completely proved me wrong
with the various blocks that we had, the long kicks
that were blocked. So that is why you may get
a leverage penalty because you are trying to block them.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Can I could I point something out that only I know.
I know we're on in some East Coast New York
surrounding markets, but for all our friends that are Mets
and Jets fans, which is a sad existence.
Speaker 1 (18:34):
Did you see the.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
Meme going around how the Bucks game winning field goal
and the Mets lost to the Nationals happened like simultaneously,
But we're previously like the Jets are winning and the
Mets that had like men on base and then all
within a second, Mets and Jets both pooped the bed.
Speaker 1 (18:53):
Now it's a grumpy, crumpy grumpy.
Speaker 2 (18:56):
Now we're gonna get to all your feedback, but I'll
kick it off with a tweety saw sort of summed
up everything I wrote down as far as things that
made you go all these mental notes. I made poppy
bender one poppy bender one on social media at Covino
and Rich says NFL recap of things that made me go, hmm,
it was the Sunday of suck. The Falcons suck after
(19:16):
smacking the Vikes. Saints are horror show of suck. No Burrow,
Bengals suck, Titans are a suckfest. Raiders can't suck enough,
Cowboys comically suck. Giants the suckiest of suck that ever sucked.
God help us. There's a lot of suck. So there's
a lot of teams that might be ass based on
this weekend too. Bengals might be asked without Burrow. That
(19:36):
was that was a daunting game for the Bengals because
you know, you assume like you could sort of hold
your and you may not win, but you could hold
your own without Burrow.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
But that looked like oh no.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
So yeah, there was a lot of like, oh wait, yeah,
a lot of sucks over the weekend.
Speaker 1 (19:51):
Oh no.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
And you know with every suck, right, there's got to
be a team that stepped up, like, yeah, Dallas sucks. Hey,
the Bears played nice. Caleb Williams maybe better than people
give him credit for. I don't think people think he stinks.
I think Caleb Williams and good games, not a lot
to show for it until this this past weekend.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
You know, we have the patients.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
Of not even know the patients of a gen z
er that wants everything now Amazon. Now of my dad
who walks into a barber shop and expects a haircut
as soon as he sits there. If there's one person
ahead of your dad and he's like, I'm leaving, I'm like, Dad,
I thought you're going to get a haircut. Hey, waiting
around for what? When Kamino's dad goes to ihe you're
supposed to wait. When Kavino's dad goes to I Hoop
(20:38):
and they go yeah, ten to fifteen minutes, he's like,
I got Nope. My dad comes back with long hair.
I'm like Dad, He's like, they do eat people there.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
I ain't waiting around.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
So we have such little patients that, you know, we
finally saw perhaps Ben Johnson and Caleb Williams and what
they could do together once they start gelling. It's only
week three and the Bears are still a work in progress,
and I think that was sort of a cool I
thought that was a that was the biggest winner in
my book, and they were. There's some winners of Week three,
but I think the biggest winner was the Bears. Hope Bears,
(21:10):
the Bears Hope. It was a big one, like there's
hope there and over the Cowboys thirty one to fourteen,
something to celebrate at least, and Caleb Williams speaking of
two hundred and ninety eight yards, four tudies, four tuddies.
So your observations, there's no wrong answers. I got a
bunch of random ones too, Can I give you one?
(21:31):
Just to set up some phone calls? Let's do herd
of rumor over the weekend that Adele is a potential
halftime show participant. I'll like beat it with that. What
are you trying to put us to sleep? Adele? I
understand she's a generational talent. Oh my god, I got
time for Dell at halftime. Adele is squeakily talented. Come on,
(21:55):
Adele is so good. But like if you were to say, yeah,
I'm you know, your mom's going to Vegas and wants
to see an act or exactly like your your aunt
or a girl's bachelorette party, and they want to go
light and they'll see first to say no thanks, maybe
the first to say she's got a beautiful woice and
she's great, but not everyone's cut out for the super
Bowl halftime with.
Speaker 5 (22:15):
My old aunt Christina loves Adele that tells you everything
you need to know right now, No.
Speaker 1 (22:20):
Way, no how, And I say that respectfully.
Speaker 2 (22:24):
That would be some disappointing No Metallica, no Taylor Swift,
no Miley, no Blink, wantity too.
Speaker 1 (22:30):
We're going with Dell Come. She might arguably be the
most talented, but wrong setting for that.
Speaker 4 (22:36):
Doesn't have a whole lot of like upbeat tempo. Like
there's a couple, but she needs. You need music that
has popped to it. It has like a baseline and you know.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
Boom boom, I have a fun that's all. We're gonna
be up temple music. But it's not fun music.
Speaker 6 (22:48):
What if she gets in a beef with Drake months
before the performance?
Speaker 2 (22:53):
Yeah, now we're talking. So hey, those are some of
the things that made us go. We turn it over
to you Fox Sports. Ready, next, it's your chance to
tell us what you observed over this weekend, Week three,

FL two five the moon ex Boom, Thank you, guys.
Cavino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio eight seven, seven
ninety nine on Fox, We're gonna play last one Standing,
giving away some prizes later. But we're talking NFL and
anything that made you go hmmm over the weekend. You
(25:17):
know what made me go hm when you look at
the Cowboys and we said the big winner as far
as like wow, good a good moment for Ben Johnson
and and Caleb Williams and that team just you know,
it went right right. You looked at that game and
you said, all right that the Cowboys, you know they're
not terrible. So well, the Bears put on a display
(25:37):
again said, you know, mid level team, you think, but
then you look at the Cowboys and you go, Michael
Parsons left, Ceedee Lamb is now injured. This is a
sort of stripped down version of that team, like, yeah,
you got Dak who you know tries to compete, but
that team they lack any type of star power.
Speaker 1 (25:56):
Huh.
Speaker 2 (25:57):
They're heading towards the ass category with the injuries, and
on the flip side of they might be asked that
they might be awesome. And there's a new Jones in town.
That's Indiana Jones, and I got to give him props
here because I always thought he was better than what
we saw in New York. And there's a whole story
(26:19):
about it that we might get to separately. But even
Saquon Barkley is saying that there's one dude that he
used to play with that he still roots for all
the time, and that's Daniel Jones. I'm sorry Indiana Jones,
because the Colts with Jones, I mean, he's putting up
record breaking numbers forty one to twenty over the Titans.
He passed for two hundred twenty eight yards one Tuddy
just looking like a totally different guy in a new
(26:41):
setting which is inspiring.
Speaker 1 (26:44):
In life.
Speaker 2 (26:45):
Maybe it's just maybe you're not ugly, maybe you're not broke,
maybe you don't suck. Maybe you just need to be
somewhere else like Indiana Jones three. You know for the Colts,
gota give him props. I'm looking at our intro threat
on the YouTube chat. Yeah, Fading says didn't show. But
how about that Brown's defense. You tell me that defense
(27:05):
is an elite. They sort of shut down, you know,
the Packers kept them at bay the whole gamete. Well,
the Packers were in control that game until the fourth quarter.
Just it's not like they were putting up thirty or something, right, No, yeah,
I mean first week Packers looked pretty good. For every argument,
there's the flip side. So man, the Packers really sucked
it up. Or hey, the Browns defense really stepped up,
So props to them. All right, Let's get to the
(27:27):
phone calls and the feedback again. We're streaming live on
YouTube Covino and Rich FSR we do it every day,
so we have a live stream going on. Thank you
for that. And your phone calls are always fun and important.
Let's go to them. Let's say hello, eight seven ninety
nine on Fox, Starting Illinois with Baker.
Speaker 1 (27:40):
What's up? Baker?
Speaker 7 (27:41):
Hey, Baker, Hey, you comment on the fake Boobe conversation. Yes,
you guys are there's a caveat on the fas. Okay,
there's the solo cone and then the saline and the
(28:04):
hard ones, and they feel like they're real.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
No, no, no, you got you gotta be you gotta do.
You realize he's talking to a guy that has his
PhD in fake boobs Rich Davis. Yeah, the saline's the
hard ones. The silicone ones are the soft ones. Come on, Baker,
get your act together.
Speaker 4 (28:20):
And that would have a nice little Seinfeld reference.
Speaker 1 (28:22):
They're real and they're spectacular.
Speaker 2 (28:25):
My point was we were talking about picking up produces.
That's because we're all over the place on the show. No,
that's just you, buddy, Start bringing me into it. Sean Sacramento,
it's up, Sean.
Speaker 7 (28:37):
My tire Iraq pack.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
Shout out to the ti Iraq Chat.
Speaker 1 (28:42):
What's up?
Speaker 3 (28:43):
Man forget like and subscribe otherwise you know, Iowa, Sam
doesn't get his his his his his Christmas bonus unless
he gets one hundred likes every time.
Speaker 2 (28:51):
Yeah, I was Sam that people don't know if we
don't get if we don't keep improving our YouTube chat numbers,
Iowa Sam says that is a holiday fruitcake. No, he
doesn't like s equals one hundred pennies from me.
Speaker 1 (29:01):
You're not getting any holiday pitone this year. No exactly.
Speaker 8 (29:05):
There you got heard it.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
We don't get to one hundred lives by the end
of the show, everybody loses their dental plan.
Speaker 7 (29:09):
So get on those.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Appreciate it. It all helps, man in a serious uh,
in a serious way.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Anytime you're watching or leaving a comment or checking out
our bonus pod over promise, it all helps.
Speaker 1 (29:20):
What's up man?
Speaker 3 (29:22):
Hey man, you guys are the most interactive show on
Fox Sports. But really quick on this subject. Something that
made me go, hmmm, how important is kicking in the NFL?
Ask the Browns, ask the Eagles, ask the Chargers, No
matter you know how much they pay these quarterbacks, it
always comes down to kicking. And just really quick, man,
just to put a button on the talk about fake
(29:43):
versus real, the fad transfer next level, bro, You want
to talk about feeling real, closest thing to real as
you could get.
Speaker 2 (29:51):
Well, I always said it's usually my holiday analogy. You know,
fake Christmas trees are like boobs. If they're really good,
you can't tell like that. So anyway, but his point
on the kicker, Yo, it sounds obvious, but you're right,
the emphasis on all these marquee players. You're paying the
(30:11):
Miles Garretts and the Boses and the Micah Parsons and
the you know and the quarterbacks forty fifty sixty million dollars.
It's a place kicker. So many times Aaron Rodgers is
two and one because a guy on his team kicked
a sixty yard field goal in week one. You know
there's teams, but yesterday little block and then a kick
(30:33):
the other way.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
The Packers, right, Simon, yeaht minutes apart from each other.
Speaker 2 (30:38):
Dude, the forty nine ers got rid of their kicker
because he was costing them.
Speaker 5 (30:44):
It's let's talk about kickoff returns for a second too.
How about your special teams in general? Your boy Deebo
Samuel started off that game for the Commanders by running
one almost to the house. And the Commander's special teams
looked elite, and the Raiders special teams looked like some
position coaches needed to be fired.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
And I'll tell you what special teams and kicking, which
is part of special teams. That is we always talk
about that being the most underrated component of a team.
But now with the touchback, if your ball doesn't hit
that zone and it goes through the end zone, thirty
five yard line is a pretty substantial starting point, don't
you think. And I saw a couple of times yesterday
watching around the league, there were some kickers that just
(31:26):
booted it through the end zone and you're like, wow,
they're really quick to want to give the thirty five huh. Now,
I was at the Dodgers game rich watching my daughter
on the field cheerleading. Like I said, so, I had
one eye on the game, one eye on my phone
watching all the football scores and the games on the
red zone. But I got home in time to watch
(31:47):
the end of the later games and the Chiefs Giants,
And I know you think the Giants are ass No,
that was the stinker of a game. That was like
the worst game I watched. There was, you know, because
I wanted to enjoy some football camp. Scattaboo got you
excited three times.
Speaker 1 (31:59):
No, I mean had a pretty good game.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
Man, we ran I think he had sixty yards rushing
had a couple of good plays he had, but he
showed a lot of gusta, a lot of gusto, a
lot of potential, a lot of heart, like the type
of player that Giants fans would really really rally around.
And I think he made a real big statement yesterday
he did a backflip touchdown And I think what we're
(32:21):
getting at here though, is and I believe da Boll
said today that he's open to Dart being the starter
moving forward. So I think what we're seeing is limited time,
shorter leash on Russell Wilson that we may have thought,
and maybe some changes soon.
Speaker 3 (32:37):
Right.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
Well, with that said, we're going to take all your feedback,
but let's go to dB for an update. If there's
anything we're missing, DB's always got it what's up there.
Speaker 6 (32:44):
So I don't know there's going to be a change
in New York with the Giants from Russell Wilson to
Jackson Dart. Remember they also have Jamis Winston on the roster,
so it could be a change. But Brian Dabele was
asked today about if they were going to make a
change with Wilson. He says they're evaluating everything and working
through personnel decisions. See I told you, we'll learn a
lot more, probably on Wednesday. It's also on Wednesday, we'll
(33:05):
find out more about Commanders quarterback jad And Daniels, who
missed their win over the Raiders because of his knee injury.
Head coach Dan Quinn says that Daniels remains day today.
Forty nine Ers ed rusher Nick Bosa done for the
year with a torn ACL and his knee suffered in
yesterday's win over the Cardinals.
Speaker 1 (33:20):
This one's in his rightney.
Speaker 6 (33:21):
He actually partially torn the ACL and his rightney in
high school and suffered in leftknee ACL tear in twenty twenty.
Chargers running back Najie Harris done for the year with
a rupture achilles tended, while Cowboys wide out Ceedee Lamb
could miss three to four weeks according to ESPN. With
that high ankle sprain, he has expected to miss at
least Week four against the Green Bay Packers, which is
Sunday Night Football. Tonight is Monday Night Football. Week three
(33:43):
wraps up with the Lions and Ravens in Baltimore at
eight fifteen Eastern time. A couple of college football notes
ACC will move to nine conference games by twenty twenty seven,
also mandating that each school must play a minimum of
ten games against power force schools. Syracuse finedenty five grand
by the ACC for faking injuries during their win over
Clemson this past Saturday. In college hoops, auburnead coach Bruce
(34:06):
Pearl retiring after eleven seasons, yes two final four berths
for Pearl. His son, Steven, who was the team's associate
head coach, will take over on a full time basis.
Bruce Pearl says he is not going to run for
the US Senators. There's a vacant seat in the state
of Alabama, and Rockets guard Fred Van Vliet suffered a
towny cl according to ESPN, putting his entire upcoming season
(34:29):
in Jeopardy Guys Back to you, Thank.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
You, Geebe Debe.
Speaker 2 (34:33):
Who's on the outside looking in on our Fox Sports
Radio Guillotine Aaron Lewis now Tony.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
I think Bo Benson was one of the squads.
Speaker 6 (34:42):
Figure show, Yeah, Kevin figures, Oh, he's overnights Friday Saturday

Speaker 2 (34:48):
Kevin figures looks like he's on the outside looking in,
And I believe is Wakanda forever who's at that is
Ryan Smith? Ryan right, Yes, our boy Shay's not looking
too good either. So, by the way, Dan Byer, I
want to thank you because the more I've talked to
random buddies, we're shocked how people don't do this Fantasy
Guillotine League. It's so much more fun than the week
(35:09):
to week matchups.
Speaker 1 (35:10):
It really is. So thank you so much. You're welcome,
glad to have you in.
Speaker 2 (35:13):
All right, we got more Cavino and Rich and all
of your observations. Of course week three of the NFL,
and if you want to talk some baseball, I'm down
because I am so abnormally frustrated. I'm going to say two, yeah,
I got something to say about the MVP race. People
need to stop the nonsense. Stop it, stop it. We
got more CNR next right here on Fox Sports Radio.
(35:35):
Oh yeah, VIP in full effect. CNR on FSR in

eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox and of course
be the greatest all of the land getting ready to

Speaker 2 (36:06):
Chance to win in a few minutes, give one away
prizes on this Monday Fun Day, Super Fun Time with
CNR at eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox, I
have a non related football observation Things that made you
go home rich? Before we wrap up the phone calls,
how about your boy Jacobe Young of the Nationals with
those circus catches.
Speaker 1 (36:25):
I don't want to hear about it.
Speaker 2 (36:26):
Dude, that was in the Mets season could be summed
up in game tying home run robbed No, but just
from the bottom of the ninth inning. Not only did
he have that one circus catch office, yeah, he then
caught one that it was arguably going to be a
home runs. Arguably it was a home I mean his
glove was over the fence, but it was still an
(36:47):
insane catch in insane in the member that could have
very well been the play of the day. But you
know what, NFL is king, and it's time for our
tirec play of the day. The biggest upset I would
say so far in this NFL season, Andre Schmidt for
the win from fifty five yards out, two seconds beats
(37:07):
is back, kick is up and the kick.
Speaker 7 (37:09):
Is right down.
Speaker 5 (37:13):
It's right.
Speaker 2 (37:14):
There's the fuck Free base Bro Little hell Bays Time,
Green Bays copy the Green Bay Packers, And you gotta
feel You gotta feel bad for the Packers a little bit,
but not really. You gotta feel good for Smid the kicker.
Remember he had a really rough week one and that
there was fans calling for his job, but get a
(37:34):
new kicker. They stuck with him and he came through
big time.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
Yesterday. You know they were singing fun times.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
And Cleveland again, Cleaveland props again to them over the
Packers's courtesy of Browns Radio Network, our tire rack play
of the day. For over forty years, tyrak has been
helping customers find the right tires for how, what and
where they drive. Ship fast and free back by Free
Road has a protection with convenient installation options like mobile
tire installation, tire rackt we tire buying should be But
(38:02):
arguably Jacobe Young in the world of baseball had some
of the greatest plays of the weekend. No gott to
look him up if you somehow missed him. The most
valuable the most important one was obviously his jumping over
the fence and robbing Francisco Alvarez of a game tying
home run, which may have honestly killed.
Speaker 1 (38:21):
Him that season.
Speaker 2 (38:21):
But that hacky sack one where yeah, of his love,
he kicked it up to himself like I've never seen.
That would have been if this was the eighties and nineties,
it would have been on Warner Wolfe's Plays of the Week.
It would have been on George Michael Sportsman, that would
have been on Mel Allen's ricebaw Funny sat Up, no doubt.
So hey, let's take your phone calls, your observations week
(38:42):
three of the NFL. We'll go to Tony in Oregon.
What's uptown eight Dony?
Speaker 8 (38:47):
Hey, but hey, I do have a take on the
fake versus reel. Okay, first, my sports take. I think
one of you said the Bears were the big winner
of the weekend, and I agree, But I also think
that a bigger winner because I think as a Bears fan,
mean about a million other Bears fans were about ready
to cancel the second half of our NFL ticket description
(39:10):
before the second half of the invoice and started in
October had they lost that game, So I think maybe
YouTube was a big winner of the weekend.
Speaker 2 (39:18):
You know what, I think you said the Bears. They're
one and two now, but you know who could be
one and two after tonight the Lions and the Packers
lost yesterday in dramatic fashion. So if anything, the Bears
were the big winners because the Bears not only one,
the Packers lost and tonight the Lions have to play
the Ravens. So you're looking at a division that could
(39:39):
be one game, Danny. You got a couple of two
and one team, a couple one and two teams.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
It's not it's for early in the season. This is
an important Monday night football.
Speaker 2 (39:47):
If you were the Bears and you were one and
two and you were staring at the Lions and the
Packers both at three and oh, that's a way different season.
You know they're both two and one, it could be
one and two. What's your second thoughts on?
Speaker 8 (40:00):
Oh, I always said if I could touch and feel,
then they're real.
Speaker 2 (40:05):
Yeah, big big Mike who runs his place, I believe
once said that those are his words of words and
we learned things here.
Speaker 1 (40:10):
Thank you, Ron and in the Cha Cha Rochester, whatsever
on Hey Ron.
Speaker 7 (40:14):
Hey guys, proud Syracuse fan.
Speaker 6 (40:17):
When I great city young kid, I met this girl.
Speaker 3 (40:20):
It happened to be from Miami visiting New York City.
Speaker 6 (40:23):
Yes, something back to hotel to see.
Speaker 7 (40:24):
A real job. Yeah, it was really hot and pretty
ninetydel as chaired No Life and I'm like, we had
we pulled around.
Speaker 8 (40:31):
I'm like, wow, these are unbelievable, so hard so and
like a year later, I'm like, uh.
Speaker 3 (40:36):
They were fake.
Speaker 8 (40:37):
The whole year to figure out that they were fake,
and you know, and you were youngster back then.
Speaker 2 (40:44):
Or they weren't right, I don't know. I'm confused by
the Maybe they were just like the Plums. I yeah,
brought to work. Yeah, I had to hear the Plum
story to understand. But thank you guys, and catch the podcast.
Catch the podcast. That story makes no sense without the
Plum story. At the beginning of the show, Hey tonight,
before we move along for a second, from the NFL
(41:04):
Tonight Lions Ravene, you want to talk about that next
for a second, because those are two teams that one
is going to start out one and two and we'll
let you know who's going to win tonight next
