Set it and don't forget it the opposite of a
bronco Bronco. I got two quick things before you get
to AFC North Football, and some thoughts as we get
into Week five of the NFL have a Halloween question,
(01:16):
and I have a baseball question. Halloween. First, what do
you think the top four selling candies are that people
give away to kids? What do you think the top
four selling Halloween candies are? I read recently that the
top selling product at Walmart is bananas. You believe that?
(01:36):
Did you read that? Did you see that? I? No,
I didn't see that, but I know bananas like the
top seller in all pro from the client tele I'm
sure it's not. I thought it was large bridgeton Mountain dew.
It's not Mountain doing lardenough.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Every year we see that Eminem's is the top of
these lists.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Old school regular Eminem's number three, number three on the
top four. Sour Patch kids, they are not they're the top.
They're the top selling non chocolate. Wait wait, you didn't
say non chocolate versus chocolate. But they are not in
the top four. But I'm me no, top three else
it should be one hundred grand because it's one of
my favorites that appear every Halloween. But it's definitely Reese's
(02:14):
Peanut butter cup that is your number one yeah selling candle.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
It's all it's all chocolate. So number one is Recius
peanut Porter. Some people say in other parts of the
country Receas.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
I was just to say, if you say you deserve
a kick in, they give me you get deserve a
kick in the dards if you say reces pieces, like,
what's a pieces? That's what I just said. So two
more in the top four, you're essentially your final four.
Number one Esus peanut butter cups. Number three regular Eminems.
It's gotta be like either Milky Way or Snickers. No,
(02:45):
they're not in the top Uh, kinder Bueno. I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
What I never had k is like a like a
TwixT or TwixT bar or a kid cap?
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Can I like a little kinder eggs? You prime? My
kids love those little kids, the little toy. What do
you say next, tobble roan. Let's see, all right, so
we got reeses. What else?
Speaker 4 (03:11):
Eminem's, eminem straight, Minnie Hershey's chocolate bar.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Do eminem peanuts up? Peters? Eminem's are number two? Okay,
you got Eminem's are number two, So you're missing number four.
Speaker 5 (03:20):
My kids are always looking for the sour Patch packages
every Halloween.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
Yeah, I was, Sam just said that sour wintermelons count.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
I was answered in the studiocome.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Oh does it go back to analytics nerds? No chocolate,
not to waste time, you said it sort of Sam Kitkats, Yeah,
they're the best kit Cats. It's always weird how certain
ones make cameos during Halloween time, like Mister Goodbar and Crackle.
Speaker 5 (03:45):
And also certain candies are better when they're the mini size, right,
you don't want the whole kit cat bar being said.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Don't be a big slob starting now, because you're going
to see all this on on Tammy from accounting's desks.
She's gonna have a whole ball there and you're gonna
want to eat him every day. Oh nono beatus, non chocolate.
What are your favorite salar patch kids? And maybe like starbursts?
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Yeah, I like Jolly Ranchers.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
You know that, you know the starburs for Halloween coming
Like it's like two in a little sleeve. If you
get a pink and a red, that's like hitting. That's
like a walk that's like hitting a walk off. If
you get two pink reds, so you get two yellows,
that's like striking out like the Yankees last night, that's
like a two seven off suit. Right now, what if
you grab a handful and you get like a banana
(04:32):
laffy taffy and a yellow Oh that's like, that's like
starting a bed Rosario over Ben Rice. Yeah, it's here's
a guarantee, an observation. You're gonna notice this Halloween season,
it's always the yellow candy that's left over.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
Guaranteed later this month we'll do our Halloween candy draft.
Remember Travis joined us last year.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
All right, all right, I can't wait, can't wait. That
being said, enjoy the season, one more season, postseason, and
rest in peace. Jane Goodall who passed away. Yeah, I
full question because I said, your boy Chappie, who seems
to own the Yankees, holds the record for the fastest
pitch ever thrown, one hundred and five point eight miles
an hour. Now I think of Chapman and I think
(05:15):
I remember where he started playing his career. I remember
him being a Yankee because Cavino hated and loved him
at the same time. Now he owns the Yankees as
a Red Sox. So besides the Red Sox and Yankees,
can you name the other teams he's played for? Because
I thought of a cub I'm missing the Cubs is easy,
all right? So you're Cubs when he won the World Series?
(05:35):
Are the Cubbies?
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Yep?
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Can you think of who else he played for? When
I say, Chapman, who do you think of?
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Oh? Yankees?
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Of course he was there.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
I don't, Yeah, I don't think.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Of the other one that came to mind. Say it
the Royals that comes to see you thought of the Royals?
I did not. I was thinking of where he played
his first like five or six season, the reds so
started with the reds then Yankees, was a rental for
the Cubs, went back to the Yankees. Ye, Royals. Now
he's a Red Sox. But there are two teams in
(06:11):
between one. I don't even know you would ever even
picture or all this Chapmen wearing these collars?
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Did he play for the Cubs?
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (06:19):
He did? Okay?
Speaker 1 (06:20):
In the world said Danny, are you worry? Are you
liking another planet? Wasn't there some controversy?
Speaker 5 (06:25):
Because when you're no, But I just put Gusts from
the Berry on hold right now, I was gonna say, like.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Danny's on a four minute today.
Speaker 4 (06:33):
Wasn't there some controversy when he was pitching for the
Cubs that like he had the way he was pitching
like could have cost them like the game or like
remember I know he had some offield stuff too, but
I'm talking about there was like something when he was
with the Cubs that they could have blown it.
Speaker 5 (06:46):
I might be missing, I might be misremembering. Well, okay,
how about this rich Did anyone say Texas?
Speaker 1 (06:51):
They did not? And that was the one I forgot.
I forgot that he won a World Series with the
Texas Rangers. He was on that squad. But the one
that I couldn't think of, Caveno couldn't think of uh
Bree was in the editing room. None of us remember
a Raldish Chappie Chapman playing for the Pirates a year ago. Yeah,
I don't know who remember that. I can't even picture
him in the in the in the yellow and black yellow.
(07:14):
So anyway, he chapped in the difference makers so far.
But we'll see what happens today. But the way, I
don't want to rub it. In this game two starts
in like a minute, so you you could have redemption,
but when you're the bases loaded, no outs, you had
to be positively thinking like all right, come on, base
it and we got this with. You thought they were
gonnat least, you know, put one or you had to
(07:36):
figure something was gonna happen. Nothing happened like bases loaded,
no outs in the bottom of the ninth at Home
Yankee Stadium, the tradition. Like in my mind, I'm like, wow,
what an opportunity for what base It ties it and
then if they get a base hit, then it's still
like first and second, no outs. The fact that three Yankees,
two strikeouts and a pop up, I don't know, man,
(07:57):
that was Yeah, it was horrible that it really was.
That's why we're talking about it. Believe me, as a
Yankees fan, I know that the national audience of Fox
Sports Radio doesn't give a terrible Terry Funk about the Yankees.
In fact, they're rooting against him. It was such a
big deal. Care about the postseason, and yeah, it was
a big story. It was a colossal failure last night.
It never happened before. They had a tremendous opportunity to
(08:20):
at least tie the game last night. Is u Is
Aldon the first Yankee to ever rock a beard in
the postseason? I would say there's a good chance of that. Yeah,
on the mound for sure. Yeah. Yeah. So well, hey
Red sox Yankee is about to get underway. We'll see
what happens with Bello though, because Jashism has a statement
(08:40):
to make tonight. He does well against him, and he'll
prove that he should have been in the lineup last night.
Hopefully tonight, let's say, had a Gus in the Bay Area.
What's up, Gus?
Speaker 6 (08:49):
Hey, guys love this show. Thanks love that you gave
a Dewey Finn quote to start your show. That was incredible.
I just want to give some flowers to Eroll this Chapman.
You talked yesterday about longevity and athletes, and this guy's
been throwing triple digits for fifteen straight seasons.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Yeah. I mean when you look at his Baseball reference,
it is pretty impressive. Was there were times where you thought,
all right, it's coming to an end. He's doing something right,
and his the IRA this year is in the ones.
So it's like sometimes you think, like, oh, maybe his
best days are behind him because he's a veteran now.
But he's he's wits out. He is in tremendous shape.
(09:29):
The dude is jacked like John Carlos Stanton jacked, Chapman
is jacked, and usually guys that lift that heavy and
stay that chiseled get hurt a lot. And he's been
able to figure out a way where he's still dominant
and still a major factor for the team. So yeah,
props to him. I just don't like him. If you remember,
(09:51):
he left the Yankees hanging in the postseason was a
no show with Boone. He had some issues, so I
didn't like him with his tenure with the Yankees. But
he's had a great career, no, no doubt. Let's how
to Paul and Rhode Island.
Speaker 7 (10:02):
Hey gosh, you forgot about me the last three days.
But it's okay. It's a time zone.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
It's fine.
Speaker 7 (10:11):
I love your show. I do love your show. If
that baby, my grand kids.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Thank you.
Speaker 7 (10:15):
Listen, listen. I'm gonna go with the Yankees again with
the World Series, and as a Red Sox fan, we
got we got one taken away. That's fine. But I
love your your producer, I love your show. But I'm
gonna tell you it's the money. It's the money. I'm
(10:37):
gonna tell you. Money talks and the rest walks.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
I mean, that's a general rule in life. But what
are you referencing?
Speaker 3 (10:44):
What what I'm.
Speaker 7 (10:45):
References if if we get lucky with the Yankees again
and the World Series, they have to do it.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Yeah, I mean, listen, if the Yankees find the way
to win today, I think the American League is wide open.
You just don't want an early exit. You don't want
to get beat two games by your division and historic
rivals at Yankee Stadium. I believe it was sewn Casey.
I heard on Dan Patrick this morning, even from his perspective,
he was saying he thinks the Yankees are going to
(11:14):
pull away with the series despite what happened yesterday, just
the way the matchups go moving forward and what they're
capable of. But we'll see. The game has started now
and let's go. And now we're gonna talk some NFL
and a team time. Keep you posted on Yankees, Red Sox.
Now my thoughts on Aaron Rodgers and the AFC North.
(11:38):
I think it's funny how so much changes in such
a short period of time. Now, before I give you
my words a wisdom, I think we could sneak in
a little prize here for everyone listening to Fox Sports Radio.
It is Wednesday, and we're running late. I don't want
to forget Mike's words of wisdom. So here's what we're
gonna do. We're not going anywhere. We're gonna play Mike's
(12:01):
words of wisdom right now. Then if you could repeat
what Mike says word for word, you win that covene
on Rich Fox Sports Radio Football and we'll go back
to talking about NFL. So you want to just throw
on some Mike's words of wisdom, let's do it. We
do it every Wednesday. We try to spread some knowledge
with our good pound Mike, who runs this place. It's
(12:21):
time for the guy that runs this place.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Just for clarification, guys, Big Mike does not run this place.
He is not in charge of everything. He has no
power over really anybody here. He does not run this place.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
It's Big Mike's words of wisdom on a Wednesday. Thanks
for the clarification, Dan Bayer, all right, Mike's words a wisdom,
Let it breathe, and here we go. If at first
you don't succeed, perhaps skydiving is not for you, all right,
So easy, breezy, beautiful, that's a nice Halloween treat for
(12:57):
you if you can repeat that verbatim, you win a
CNR on FSR nerve football and they're new and improved.
So if you won in the past, they're different this season.
So eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox to play
eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. We don't even
need to replay it because I think that was an
easy one and a good one. All right, And while
(13:17):
we take the phone calls Aaron Rogers, Now, Aaron Judge,
Aaron Rogers? Is he the king of the AFC North,
That's what Richi's saying. I mean, it's really interesting when
you think about where we started this year, right and again,
it just shows that in every sport NFL, Major League Baseball, NBA, NHL,
(13:39):
hot dog gating, I mean, hot doog getting is really
the only predictable sport because Joey Chestnuts just you know,
eastside Sam. You never know the fact that right now
the Ravens are one and three and Lamars banged up
at least till maybe after that bye week. If they
could escape at two and four and then have to
go on a pretty sweet run, no one, but is
(14:00):
that shit? What do you think the record will be
at that point? You think, well, if you look at
the Ravens. They got I believe, two games and then
the bye. Okay, the two games the Ravens have coming
up not easy. Let me let me take a quick
old peek at the Ravens schedule coming up the Ravens.
The Ravens schedule watching. Yeah, are we schedule watching? Sim
(14:25):
The rich loves to look at the schedule. Game schedule
watch it?
Speaker 6 (14:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Uh. They play on Sunday against the Texans. Texans are
one and three. The games in Baltimore. If you just
pound the ball with Derek Henry and hope to try
to sneak away with a win two and three, two
and three, then you play the Rams. I don't think
you beat the Rams without Lamar Jackson four. Then you
got to buy. And then after your bye you come
(14:56):
back against the Bears. Who who knows how the Bears
are gonna look over the next couple weeks, So you
need to only split the next two to even be
in the conversation. So when you talk about the AFC
North and where we were, I think they could be.
Three and four months ago, the Bengals started out hot
and everyone said, yeah, this is the year. And then
(15:17):
poor Joey Burrow and his turf toe out for at
least three months. I call that a port Manzi knows
what I'm talking about. Monzi, do you feel bad for
Joe Burrows?
Speaker 8 (15:31):
I was so sorry.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
That was so funny.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
That was so freaking funny. Thank you, Hey, nobody Joe
Burrow keeps about three months. So the Bengals went from
this is it? How many people wrote down Joe Burrow
as their MVP pick on the Fox Sports Radio in studio,
(15:55):
She we have right, I mean a lot of people said.
A lot of people said, everyone's comparing him to Andrew Luck.
Sounds like Andrew bad luck Burrow not happened in Bengals.
I mean they've got trash since he got, you know,
taken out.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
I'm hoping for the best, just for the sake of
good football in his career. Lamar not from a Revenger
the Nerds. No, Lamar Jackson hamstring injury means Cooper Rush
is taken over by the way, you know. Lamar from
Revenge of the Nerds was also in Cobra Kai in
the original Karate Kid in the actual movie, Really Yeah.
(16:34):
Lamar from the Revenger of Nerds through the Javelin was
also in Cobra Kai. I mean, how cool. He's almost
in the All Valley Karate Champion back in eighty four.
He's almost as cool as the actor I never know
his name who played Francis and Pee's Big Adventure. Who
is also the guy that said look, it's Enrico Palazzo,
who was also Chubb, who was also Chubbs and teen Wolf. Yeah,
(16:54):
that guy, he might be the coolest. Yeah. So anyway,
Lamar Jackson out for weeks, Cooper Rush taken over. No
one ever ever thought that they would drop all these
close games, right. They lost to the Chiefs Lions at
a tough early schedule, but lost all those games.
Speaker 4 (17:11):
I'm sorry, I just got in your ear and said
Mark Holton. Who's He's the guy who played He was
also John Wayne Gacy in the movie Gasey.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Oh man, that's an actor right there.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
Yeah he was.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
He was in Pee Wee's Brown and the Browns are trashed.
They bench Flacco for Dylan Gabriel. They're still trying to
figure it out. Shed Or Sanders is like being all
silly and doesn't know what's going on there.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
He went full mime. That was so good.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
So, I mean that division who we thought was like
this is the division, all of a sudden it looks
like cheeks and there's Aaron Rodgers, as Colin Cowhart likes
to point out, very unproductive in the big picture of quarterbacks,
like his QB rating and you know where he assesses
amongst the NFL quarterbacks not very high. That doesn't matter though,
(17:52):
because they're off to a three and one start and
now they're sitting on a buy. They come back and
they are infirm control of the Seen North. Nice and
it just shows you that everyone's like Aaron Rodgers, Oh,
come on, they got Burrow and Lamar and you know
Cleveland's gonna try to make some noise yo. Yeah, But
did they really size up with the better teams or
(18:13):
is it just a matter of these other teams win winning? Man?
When someone's winning, I don't you know.
Speaker 5 (18:18):
And you can also say the Steelers are just a
better ran organization than the Jets.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Can we talk about where the Steelers go over the
next couple of weeks. They're on a bye, then they
play the Browns okay four, and then they play the
Bengals without Burrow, Then they play the Packers and the Colts.
Let's say they split those right, five and two. Yeah,
but you're the first guy to point out like a
(18:44):
week five and one or a week sick. Remember you
were real hard on the Green Bay Packers one year
they were thirteen and something. Yeah, but they're not that.
I was hard on someone who was a soft way
Packers were. They were with someone else. But I'm I'm
I do get down on teams that have a like
they're a soft team.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
That last year jan Packers went like they did not
do well against their own division, but they had a
lot of wins.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
I think there's certain teams whose record don't indicate how
good or bad they really are. We really won't know.
They might be King of the North, like you said,
sounds a Game of the Thrones. They might be King
of the North over King Jeoffrey. But how do they
signe up against other really good teams? I know, but
that's really what I'm wondering. But we talked about, Hey,
Aaron Rodgers, you remember we talked about like what's the goal? Oh,
(19:32):
maybe if he just makes the playoffs, And I think
I think this team is in. I mean, with Burrow out,
you might as well just cancel out the Bengals. The
Browns are, like I said, Cheeks and the Ravens have
such a road ahead of them and a really tough schedule,
and without Lamar that changes everything. You're putting the ball
and the control of the game in the hands of
Cooper Rush no offense. Aaron Rodgers is now the king
(19:55):
of the AFC North until you tell me otherwise. And
I find it hilarious because no one cares about it.
We're paying attention to them, and I think, just secretly,
that team's gonna be pretty good. Now, your thoughts on
Aaron Rodgers, it's hard to debate that there are tops
of the AFC North. Shows you injury, I think they're
gonna be That all does to show you that with
(20:16):
injuries and some mix ups and things here, that you
never know what's gonna happen, right, I mean, your thoughts
on that. But we need a winner for Mike's Wednesday
Words of Wisdom?
Speaker 5 (20:25):
Who do we got, Danny g Let's start in Minnesota
with j Hey, Jay, Hey, how's it going fellows?
Speaker 2 (20:31):

Mike Mike's Words of Wisdom, and you win a prize.
You ready to do this, I'll play the flute. Go ahead,
there we go. Go.
Speaker 3 (20:48):
If at first you don't succeed, I yeah, I think
it may not be for you.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
No, that's one of the easier ones. You missed it,
but ben Rice did.
Speaker 8 (21:02):
Well.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Would it have been cool to have him in the
lineup last night? Yankees up two to oh in the
first inning because Ben Rice, you know the guy that
you left out a line up yesterday? I just hit
a bomb told you he's the guy. But hey, nice
try who do we got next?
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Jason to Maryland?
Speaker 1 (21:19):
Ready to do this? Words of wisdom? Take it away?

it's like the kids say.
Speaker 7 (24:27):
That's so we definitely major.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
See it our scoring mid week major.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
I gotta go fast because Spotty said he needs like
fourteen minutes today. He's gonna have to settle for seven though.
All right, we hand things over to the two boys
with the two big red love dice.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Excuse me, man, boys, I just rolled the three and.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
Now it's a rich roll.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
What's that? I went?
Speaker 3 (24:56):
All right? That means Carinos. Hey, guys gets first take.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
Yeah, all right, and now it's like that rare occurrence
where like you actually beat the dealer in Vegas.
Speaker 5 (25:06):
Right, two craps, ladies and gentlemen. The most famous man.
There's a more famous woman, Judy Bloom Scott Swains, New Jersey,
Spotty boy. Yeah, it's not hard to be more famous.
All right, how you guys doing, Who's going first? Mel Covino?
Let's see where should we start?
Speaker 1 (25:22):
Oh?
Speaker 9 (25:22):
You love handsome men, so we'll start with Rob Low.
Oh maybe handsome, but his integrity may be in question.
So Reds fans are seeing red after Low was spotted
last night at last night's Dodgers game as they dominated
the Reds ten to five, seemingly rooting for the Dodgers
and against the Reds. On screen during Tommy Edmonds third
(25:43):
inning home run, Lowe was wearing a twenty twenty four
World Series Champion La hat. The only problem is low
grew up in Ohio, and it's given interviews before where
he has stated that he is a massive Reds fan,
saying that he once even created his own number eight
Joe Morgan shirt and bore that thing everywhere. So low
has been, you know, a Los Angelino for years. He's
(26:04):
been acting for years, regularly attends Dodgers games, and fans
assumed his allegiance Liede with the.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Reds midweaker major. I think he got so much flatforn
a generic NFL. I thought that he had to make
a choice here, So I can't blame him for that.
I thought he was gonna wear a Rob Manford shirt. Yeah,
it wasn't wear an MLB hat this time. Look, he's
an Ohio guy, but he's so synonymous with Hollywood at
this point here for fates he's been famous. He's a
(26:29):
teenager basically, it's the Outsiders and probably before that. So
I don't blame him for saying, hey, I have some
loyalty to the Reds. But I'm a Dodgers guy. I've
been out here in La my whole life and career,
so I understand. I'm not mad at it. I think
it's a mid story. I think it's mid because if
you make a big deal about Rob Blow's alliance, that's
(26:50):
that's mid of you. But it's a good story spot
because you know, we always talk about allegiance on the show,
very la of him, and I've had to come to
grips with the fact that it's more in La than
Rob Lowe. You had your chance, I've had. I've had
to come to grips with the fact that I think
my son Ben, who's five, likes The Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
He's smart.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
Yeah, he's an l a kid. We I bought MLB
twenty five the show for his for his Nintendo switch.
I was like, you know what instead of him on
his iPad. I'm like, yo, me and you could play
the show together. And he's like, dankt me the Dodgers.
I'm like, but you mean the Mets. He's like, no,
the Dodgers. I want to be Mookie and Freddy and
I go, do you meet Lindor and Soda. I want
to be a winner. So, I mean, you know, not
(27:37):
Mookie Wilson, Mookie bets All. You know, you live somewhere
long enough, you adapt. I I'm not going to do that,
but I get it. Rob Low does he really care
that much anyway? He's a Hollywood guy. He's a sports,
very passionate. He is a very passionate sport. He's a
cool dude. Yeah, he's he's a he's a you know,
a man amongst men. Yeah, really is all right?
Speaker 9 (27:56):
Anyway, Sanders, I don't know if you saw this floating
around getting some attention for being a man of no words.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
So Sanders spoke with.
Speaker 9 (28:04):
The media today and was asked about the Browns decision
to bench Joe Flacco in favor of fellow rookie Dylan
Gabriel ahead of this Sunday's game across the Pond in London.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
This is what he said.
Speaker 9 (28:16):
Exactly. He was seen just mouthing the answer on camera
but not saying anything. He was even asked like if
he could vocally express his feelings, and went on to
keep mouthing the words, getting a kick out of himself,
laughing the entire time. Clearly he wanted he thought he
should be stepping in his did rookie, not the other guy.
But Gabriel did, however, speak saying that he's excited for
(28:38):
the opportunity, and Flacco said that while he never foresaw
the move, he acknowledged that the team hasn't been performing
very well the first four weeks. Go figure midweek er major.
It's a major story. Everybody loves talking about s Geory Sanders.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
There's been quarterback controversy since day one surrounding him and
this whole team. And what's the old saying spot Yeah nice? No, no,
if you got nothing nothing nice to say, trick or
treats mell like me. So I think he took that
and had some fun with it. He'd be like, you know, yeah,
I'd rather not say my true feelings otherwise if he did,
(29:13):
he'd probably get more criticism. So he played it safe.
I'm okay with it because at least he brought some
some fun to it. I just feel dumb because I
kept clicking my Instagram like, where's the volume, where's the
what's my volume off?
Speaker 3 (29:25):
Maybe?
Speaker 1 (29:26):
Oh, this sounds video sound. Oh he's not talking. Oh listen, man,
it's it's funny. But you could say, like a rookie
movie these kids are young, right, so, but why are
we surprised Dylan Gabriel was a higher draft pick than
should or Sanders. He just comes with the flash. I
think the funny part is he refused to be drafted
by the Ravens because he didn't want to back up
Lamar Jackson. Had he wet with them and didn't refuse it,
(29:47):
he'd be starting for the next three weeks. And now
he's backing up Gabriel. Yeah, that's that's ironic, you think
for sure. So I would say major just because there's
not much else going on in Cleveland, and clearly he
thinks it should be him. He doesn't need to really
express that. Yeah, all right, I'll go with Lebron.
Speaker 9 (30:06):
Lebron getting some backlash yet again. He does it so well,
this time getting called out by fans for appearing on
a live stream with popular streamer Twitch streamer kay sin.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Is Sinat right. H Yeah.
Speaker 9 (30:17):
After Laker's head coach JJ Reddick held James out of
practice due to quote glute nerve irritation, so as the
team said back to practice, rehdd it said it will
be a slower process easing Lebron back into the game
due to his twenty two years of wear and tear
on his body, said they were playing the long game
with Lebron. Lebron, so he decided to head over to
(30:38):
Sinat's Mafia Than three and appear on his stream where
he shaved Snat's head. There were other celebrities moving through
like Snoop Dogg, Mariah Carey, Kim Kardashian, So you know,
maybe it would have been a better look if he
kind of chilled off camera.
Speaker 3 (30:53):
But midweek er major.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
You know, most things involving Lebron are major, but this
mid this feels like just feels like a mid story.
I'm not following. Fine, I'll take it. He's right, it's mid.
I just think the insinuation that after all the years
and hard work and training and conditioning Lebron James put
it puts in if you think some training with the
(31:18):
Lakers at this stage, like if he's like, yeah, I'm
a little out of it and then ends up on
some streamers stream like, you know, at this point, were
really questioning Lebron james dedication. Stop being ridiculous. Oh and
by the way, basis load of Noel for the Red Sox.
Doland just bounced to one hoper to first, and is
that Bellinger that had to come off the bag? I
(31:39):
think it was Oh wow, look at that bass juice
for the socks. That that's major. I'm with you, what's it?
He has a little belly ache. What's going on? He's
got a glute nerve irritation? Yeah, I wasn't sure if
it was an ass issue or is honestly his answers.
(31:59):
You thought gluten intolerance gluten. I thought it was a
gluten no gluten soler. He's got a butt problem. He's
got a butt problem. So yeah, he does a little
podcast instead. Whatever. We were, well, hey Monty, do you
have a gut intolerance? He don't it don't. I'm good?
All right? How are we doing? What's doing? Manci?
Speaker 8 (32:19):
For an update, As you mentioned, things getting interesting between
between the Yankees and the Red Sox with Boston getting
the bases loaded. They've got all their outs in this
third inning, even though the Yankees are on the scoreboard.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
Ben Rice started things off with the two run shots.
Remind me did he play yesterday?
Speaker 3 (32:37):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Okay, I was just I was just remind me. I
forgot for a second.
Speaker 8 (32:42):
I wasn't trying to burn us I was Manny Machado
hit a two run shots today and the Padre shut
out the Cups three zero to force a game three.
Guardians are forcing a game three against the Tigers. They
scored five runs in the bottom of the eighth inning,
capped off by a three run shot from Boat Naylor.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
Cleveland won that game six to one.
Speaker 8 (33:00):
I believe the Red Sox on the Muno still wars
we're good, okay. I was like, I think they may
have scored on yet not yet, okay. NFL News Commander's
head coach Dan Quinn confirmed that Jayden Daniels has been
medically cleared to return.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
He is on track to start Sunday against the Chargers.
Speaker 8 (33:15):
Chargers head coach John Harbaugh announced that Joe Alt with
this high ankle sprain, is doubtful to play this week.
Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving, dealing with an ankle sprain,
was seen in a walking boot at practice, but he
has not been ruled out for Sunday's game. Browns are
benching quarterback Joe Flacco. They're starting rookie Dylan Gabriel as
you mentioned, for Sunday's game in London against the Vikings
(33:37):
by the way Cavino. Joe Flacco is technically the backup.
It is not Shador Sanders. Oh wow, yes, so he
is technically not even moved up yet. Joe Flacco is
still the backup and the forty nine ers have rolled
out everybody. Well, I'm just kidding Brock Pardy Jawan Jennings
and Ricky Piersol for Thursday night football against the Rams,
and Mac Jones will get the start. Yankees did get
(33:59):
it out here, so Bass is still loaded by the
Red Sox.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
But one out, two.
Speaker 8 (34:04):
To go for this inning.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
Guys, it's been fun. Missed you. Back to you. Thank
you Yankees. Uh yeah, scored none with the Bassis juice
last night, so maybe maybe it's your turn to shut
him down. One out, one one and Trevor Story's up
and his career at the basis load of Cavino not
too shabby, he said, some grand salamis in his life.
(34:26):
I want to just watch one more pitch and see
if something good happen. Oh no, base it up the
middle likely Yeah, one two scored two scored to too
now as we're in the top of the wonderful Sorry
to say that, buddy boy. We got more Kevin on
Rich and a story about redemption in sports and entertainment,
(34:47):
and it has to do with fitty cent. I'll explain.
We'll do that and keep you updated on Yank's sulks

Let Express Employment Pros provide the workforce you need. Go

read because I was really feeling that fifty cent man, Amen, Man, Amen,
quick reminder before we talk fifty cent tomorrow, we do
(35:32):
Old School and fifty hits yo, every Thursday. It's already Thursday,
damn starting the weekend early tomorrow early, Like mister Furley,
we throw it back and reminisce. So please join us
Manyana Old School in fifty hits every Thursday on the
Cavino and Rich show, Getting You Involved eight seven, seven
ninety nine on Fox. But I was Sam plays some
fifty cent because I have a story. Well, he's infamously
(35:55):
known to rock the microphone and for having arguably one
of the worst pitches first pitches in baseball history. For
your goofy Mets, he threw out the first pitch at
City Field.
Speaker 3 (36:08):
And couldn't even really call it a pitch.
Speaker 1 (36:10):
I mean other than other than Mariah Carey and Baba
Booie and yeah they You know, you have your infamous
list of if it wasn't there one gymnast want that
do like a flip and throw the ball right down
into the ground like there are some legendary awful first pitches,
and Fiddy said is synonymous with it. It's sort of
like the joke I'm sure amongst his boys. But he's
(36:31):
such a fit guy. You know, he's fifty cent. I'm sorry,
fifty cent. You expect him to have some sort of athleticism. No,
that's what he gets for being a false advertiser because
he's always wearing a Yankees at So there he is
in your Metz jersey, throwing that weak ass pitch. You
and I've talked about, when is the one time you'd
wear another jersey or hat or something. I said, if
(36:53):
a team like I give you the example, if they said,
if our affiliate in Saint Louis said Hey, Covino and
Rich come throughout the first pitch. I'd throw a Cardinal's
hat just to go out there and throw the pitch
and be like, hey, everyone liked.
Speaker 3 (37:05):
I think you'd be real gangster if you kept a
Mets hat on.
Speaker 1 (37:07):
Yeah. I think I'd wear a Yankees hat and a
Willy McGee jersey. Yeah, but I mean that that just
makes you look like an ungrateful ahole. Why I'm rocking
the McGee. Then then they'd probably be like, no, thanks,
you rather not throw out the first pitch? I think
have you ever seen someone throw out the first pitch?
Have you ever seen someone throw out the first pitch
at your stadium and not wear your shirt? That would
be disrespectful. It's like going to someone's house and bring
It's like going to someone an Italian old lady's house
(37:30):
and bringing your own food. All right, Well, I'm not
trying to debate that. What we're trying to say is
it's redemption. He does an appearance with you guessed it,
the Savannah Bananas. He comes out singing in the club
and all the Savannah Bananas and dancers are popping bottles
of champagne. There has to be a pressure goat moment,
(37:52):
I would think here for him. No, I think no pressure.
What's over And I'll tell you why, because everyone's watching
to see if he sucks even worse this time. He's
with the bananas. It's light and fun. He's singing. It's
a party. And I think if he throws out a
bad first pitch, it's funny because it's like another bad one,
a or redemption. I don't you think he wants to
(38:13):
redeem himself? And you know what, he threw a good
enough pitch, good enough, good, kind of like our show.
Speaker 5 (38:18):
Yeah, I think the pressure you're talking about Couvino would
have been if he was at another MLB state fair.
Speaker 1 (38:22):
Yeah, fair enough, Okay, just a light, fun moment with
the bananas. And you know what, it was a little outside.
It wasn't like a dead on strike like George W. Bush,
but it was it was good. He did a movement
like the Queen did and naked gun. Yeah he didn't
throw a screwball. But is he left e Is that
what makes it look weird? He's lefty, right, so he
(38:43):
throws it, but he looks like, let's say you're a righty.
Oh wait, Waite the city Sence pigeon. Don't put Jazz
Chisholmore bed.
Speaker 5 (38:49):
Rice on the lineup. It looked way better. It looked
like Sandy Kofax like took him under his wing.
Speaker 7 (38:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (38:56):
Again, it was a big improvement. He looked proud. He
didn't give a little fist pump like, yeah, I got
that out of the way, as you could see on
our video again, Covino and Rich streaming live on our
new YouTube channel, Covino and Rich FSR. Covino and Rich FSR.
Well a loose up in a key spot with two
on one out, the Yankees and Socks are tied. Your
old pal Danny g Cody Bellinger was he cluttery you
(39:19):
guys of the postseason.
Speaker 3 (39:21):
He was inconsistent for the Dodgers in the postseason.
Speaker 1 (39:23):
Play Wow, double steal for the Yankees, double Steve taking
away the double play? Well, enjoy the game. Look, it's
a it's practically a game seven about either of these teams.
But you can feel the rivalry and the intensity. You
really could like you'm bad. It's back, Like, honestly, I
don't I don't care for either of the teams, but
you can't argue that it's like the one of the
(39:43):
top three rivalries in all sports. Yankees Red Sox postseason.
It felt like it died down for a minute and
now it's yeah, cool to see. There's a little hatred
and no love loss there, so uh hey, something fun
to watch. We'll see you guys manyana. Enjoy your Wednesday there,

Set it and don't forget it the opposite of a
bronco Bronco. I got two quick things before you get
to AFC North Football, and some thoughts as we get
into Week five of the NFL have a Halloween question,
(01:16):
and I have a baseball question. Halloween. First, what do
you think the top four selling candies are that people
give away to kids? What do you think the top
four selling Halloween candies are? I read recently that the
top selling product at Walmart is bananas. You believe that?
(01:36):
Did you read that? Did you see that? I? No,
I didn't see that, but I know bananas like the
top seller in all pro from the client tele I'm
sure it's not. I thought it was large bridgeton Mountain dew.
It's not Mountain doing lardenough.
Speaker 3 (01:50):
Every year we see that Eminem's is the top of
these lists.
Speaker 1 (01:53):
Old school regular Eminem's number three, number three on the
top four. Sour Patch kids, they are not they're the top.
They're the top selling non chocolate. Wait wait, you didn't
say non chocolate versus chocolate. But they are not in
the top four. But I'm me no, top three else
it should be one hundred grand because it's one of
my favorites that appear every Halloween. But it's definitely Reese's
(02:14):
Peanut butter cup that is your number one yeah selling candle.
Speaker 4 (02:17):
It's all it's all chocolate. So number one is Recius
peanut Porter. Some people say in other parts of the
country Receas.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
I was just to say, if you say you deserve
a kick in, they give me you get deserve a
kick in the dards if you say reces pieces, like,
what's a pieces? That's what I just said. So two
more in the top four, you're essentially your final four.
Number one Esus peanut butter cups. Number three regular Eminems.
It's gotta be like either Milky Way or Snickers. No,
(02:45):
they're not in the top Uh, kinder Bueno. I'm sorry.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
What I never had k is like a like a
TwixT or TwixT bar or a kid cap?
Speaker 1 (03:00):
Can I like a little kinder eggs? You prime? My
kids love those little kids, the little toy. What do
you say next, tobble roan. Let's see, all right, so
we got reeses. What else?
Speaker 4 (03:11):
Eminem's, eminem straight, Minnie Hershey's chocolate bar.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Do eminem peanuts up? Peters? Eminem's are number two? Okay,
you got Eminem's are number two, So you're missing number four.
Speaker 5 (03:20):
My kids are always looking for the sour Patch packages
every Halloween.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
Yeah, I was, Sam just said that sour wintermelons count.
Speaker 3 (03:28):
I was answered in the studiocome.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Oh does it go back to analytics nerds? No chocolate,
not to waste time, you said it sort of Sam Kitkats, Yeah,
they're the best kit Cats. It's always weird how certain
ones make cameos during Halloween time, like Mister Goodbar and Crackle.
Speaker 5 (03:45):
And also certain candies are better when they're the mini size, right,
you don't want the whole kit cat bar being said.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
Don't be a big slob starting now, because you're going
to see all this on on Tammy from accounting's desks.
She's gonna have a whole ball there and you're gonna
want to eat him every day. Oh nono beatus, non chocolate.
What are your favorite salar patch kids? And maybe like starbursts?
Speaker 3 (04:09):
Yeah, I like Jolly Ranchers.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
You know that, you know the starburs for Halloween coming
Like it's like two in a little sleeve. If you
get a pink and a red, that's like hitting. That's
like a walk that's like hitting a walk off. If
you get two pink reds, so you get two yellows,
that's like striking out like the Yankees last night, that's
like a two seven off suit. Right now, what if
you grab a handful and you get like a banana
(04:32):
laffy taffy and a yellow Oh that's like, that's like
starting a bed Rosario over Ben Rice. Yeah, it's here's
a guarantee, an observation. You're gonna notice this Halloween season,
it's always the yellow candy that's left over.
Speaker 4 (04:42):
Guaranteed later this month we'll do our Halloween candy draft.
Remember Travis joined us last year.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
All right, all right, I can't wait, can't wait. That
being said, enjoy the season, one more season, postseason, and
rest in peace. Jane Goodall who passed away. Yeah, I
full question because I said, your boy Chappie, who seems
to own the Yankees, holds the record for the fastest
pitch ever thrown, one hundred and five point eight miles
an hour. Now I think of Chapman and I think
(05:15):
I remember where he started playing his career. I remember
him being a Yankee because Cavino hated and loved him
at the same time. Now he owns the Yankees as
a Red Sox. So besides the Red Sox and Yankees,
can you name the other teams he's played for? Because
I thought of a cub I'm missing the Cubs is easy,
all right? So you're Cubs when he won the World Series?
(05:35):
Are the Cubbies?
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Yep?
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Can you think of who else he played for? When
I say, Chapman, who do you think of?
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Oh? Yankees?
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Of course he was there.
Speaker 3 (05:48):
I don't, Yeah, I don't think.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
Of the other one that came to mind. Say it
the Royals that comes to see you thought of the Royals?
I did not. I was thinking of where he played
his first like five or six season, the reds so
started with the reds then Yankees, was a rental for
the Cubs, went back to the Yankees. Ye, Royals. Now
he's a Red Sox. But there are two teams in
(06:11):
between one. I don't even know you would ever even
picture or all this Chapmen wearing these collars?
Speaker 3 (06:16):
Did he play for the Cubs?
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (06:19):
He did? Okay?
Speaker 1 (06:20):
In the world said Danny, are you worry? Are you
liking another planet? Wasn't there some controversy?
Speaker 5 (06:25):
Because when you're no, But I just put Gusts from
the Berry on hold right now, I was gonna say, like.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
Danny's on a four minute today.
Speaker 4 (06:33):
Wasn't there some controversy when he was pitching for the
Cubs that like he had the way he was pitching
like could have cost them like the game or like
remember I know he had some offield stuff too, but
I'm talking about there was like something when he was
with the Cubs that they could have blown it.
Speaker 5 (06:46):
I might be missing, I might be misremembering. Well, okay,
how about this rich Did anyone say Texas?
Speaker 1 (06:51):
They did not? And that was the one I forgot.
I forgot that he won a World Series with the
Texas Rangers. He was on that squad. But the one
that I couldn't think of, Caveno couldn't think of uh
Bree was in the editing room. None of us remember
a Raldish Chappie Chapman playing for the Pirates a year ago. Yeah,
I don't know who remember that. I can't even picture
him in the in the in the yellow and black yellow.
(07:14):
So anyway, he chapped in the difference makers so far.
But we'll see what happens today. But the way, I
don't want to rub it. In this game two starts
in like a minute, so you you could have redemption,
but when you're the bases loaded, no outs, you had
to be positively thinking like all right, come on, base
it and we got this with. You thought they were
gonnat least, you know, put one or you had to
(07:36):
figure something was gonna happen. Nothing happened like bases loaded,
no outs in the bottom of the ninth at Home
Yankee Stadium, the tradition. Like in my mind, I'm like, wow,
what an opportunity for what base It ties it and
then if they get a base hit, then it's still
like first and second, no outs. The fact that three Yankees,
two strikeouts and a pop up, I don't know, man,
(07:57):
that was Yeah, it was horrible that it really was.
That's why we're talking about it. Believe me, as a
Yankees fan, I know that the national audience of Fox
Sports Radio doesn't give a terrible Terry Funk about the Yankees.
In fact, they're rooting against him. It was such a
big deal. Care about the postseason, and yeah, it was
a big story. It was a colossal failure last night.
It never happened before. They had a tremendous opportunity to
(08:20):
at least tie the game last night. Is u Is
Aldon the first Yankee to ever rock a beard in
the postseason? I would say there's a good chance of that. Yeah,
on the mound for sure. Yeah. Yeah. So well, hey
Red sox Yankee is about to get underway. We'll see
what happens with Bello though, because Jashism has a statement
(08:40):
to make tonight. He does well against him, and he'll
prove that he should have been in the lineup last night.
Hopefully tonight, let's say, had a Gus in the Bay Area.
What's up, Gus?
Speaker 6 (08:49):
Hey, guys love this show. Thanks love that you gave
a Dewey Finn quote to start your show. That was incredible.
I just want to give some flowers to Eroll this Chapman.
You talked yesterday about longevity and athletes, and this guy's
been throwing triple digits for fifteen straight seasons.
Speaker 1 (09:08):
Yeah. I mean when you look at his Baseball reference,
it is pretty impressive. Was there were times where you thought,
all right, it's coming to an end. He's doing something right,
and his the IRA this year is in the ones.
So it's like sometimes you think, like, oh, maybe his
best days are behind him because he's a veteran now.
But he's he's wits out. He is in tremendous shape.
(09:29):
The dude is jacked like John Carlos Stanton jacked, Chapman
is jacked, and usually guys that lift that heavy and
stay that chiseled get hurt a lot. And he's been
able to figure out a way where he's still dominant
and still a major factor for the team. So yeah,
props to him. I just don't like him. If you remember,
(09:51):
he left the Yankees hanging in the postseason was a
no show with Boone. He had some issues, so I
didn't like him with his tenure with the Yankees. But
he's had a great career, no, no doubt. Let's how
to Paul and Rhode Island.
Speaker 7 (10:02):
Hey gosh, you forgot about me the last three days.
But it's okay. It's a time zone.
Speaker 1 (10:10):
It's fine.
Speaker 7 (10:11):
I love your show. I do love your show. If
that baby, my grand kids.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Thank you.
Speaker 7 (10:15):
Listen, listen. I'm gonna go with the Yankees again with
the World Series, and as a Red Sox fan, we
got we got one taken away. That's fine. But I
love your your producer, I love your show. But I'm
gonna tell you it's the money. It's the money. I'm
(10:37):
gonna tell you. Money talks and the rest walks.
Speaker 1 (10:40):
I mean, that's a general rule in life. But what
are you referencing?
Speaker 3 (10:44):
What what I'm.
Speaker 7 (10:45):
References if if we get lucky with the Yankees again
and the World Series, they have to do it.
Speaker 1 (10:53):
Yeah, I mean, listen, if the Yankees find the way
to win today, I think the American League is wide open.
You just don't want an early exit. You don't want
to get beat two games by your division and historic
rivals at Yankee Stadium. I believe it was sewn Casey.
I heard on Dan Patrick this morning, even from his perspective,
he was saying he thinks the Yankees are going to
(11:14):
pull away with the series despite what happened yesterday, just
the way the matchups go moving forward and what they're
capable of. But we'll see. The game has started now
and let's go. And now we're gonna talk some NFL
and a team time. Keep you posted on Yankees, Red Sox.
Now my thoughts on Aaron Rodgers and the AFC North.
(11:38):
I think it's funny how so much changes in such
a short period of time. Now, before I give you
my words a wisdom, I think we could sneak in
a little prize here for everyone listening to Fox Sports Radio.
It is Wednesday, and we're running late. I don't want
to forget Mike's words of wisdom. So here's what we're
gonna do. We're not going anywhere. We're gonna play Mike's
(12:01):
words of wisdom right now. Then if you could repeat
what Mike says word for word, you win that covene
on Rich Fox Sports Radio Football and we'll go back
to talking about NFL. So you want to just throw
on some Mike's words of wisdom, let's do it. We
do it every Wednesday. We try to spread some knowledge
with our good pound Mike, who runs this place. It's
(12:21):
time for the guy that runs this place.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
Just for clarification, guys, Big Mike does not run this place.
He is not in charge of everything. He has no
power over really anybody here. He does not run this place.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
It's Big Mike's words of wisdom on a Wednesday. Thanks
for the clarification, Dan Bayer, all right, Mike's words a wisdom,
Let it breathe, and here we go. If at first
you don't succeed, perhaps skydiving is not for you, all right,
So easy, breezy, beautiful, that's a nice Halloween treat for
(12:57):
you if you can repeat that verbatim, you win a
CNR on FSR nerve football and they're new and improved.
So if you won in the past, they're different this season.
So eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox to play
eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. We don't even
need to replay it because I think that was an
easy one and a good one. All right, And while
(13:17):
we take the phone calls Aaron Rogers, Now, Aaron Judge,
Aaron Rogers? Is he the king of the AFC North,
That's what Richi's saying. I mean, it's really interesting when
you think about where we started this year, right and again,
it just shows that in every sport NFL, Major League Baseball, NBA, NHL,
(13:39):
hot dog gating, I mean, hot doog getting is really
the only predictable sport because Joey Chestnuts just you know,
eastside Sam. You never know the fact that right now
the Ravens are one and three and Lamars banged up
at least till maybe after that bye week. If they
could escape at two and four and then have to
go on a pretty sweet run, no one, but is
(14:00):
that shit? What do you think the record will be
at that point? You think, well, if you look at
the Ravens. They got I believe, two games and then
the bye. Okay, the two games the Ravens have coming
up not easy. Let me let me take a quick
old peek at the Ravens schedule coming up the Ravens.
The Ravens schedule watching. Yeah, are we schedule watching? Sim
(14:25):
The rich loves to look at the schedule. Game schedule
watch it?
Speaker 6 (14:31):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Uh. They play on Sunday against the Texans. Texans are
one and three. The games in Baltimore. If you just
pound the ball with Derek Henry and hope to try
to sneak away with a win two and three, two
and three, then you play the Rams. I don't think
you beat the Rams without Lamar Jackson four. Then you
got to buy. And then after your bye you come
(14:56):
back against the Bears. Who who knows how the Bears
are gonna look over the next couple weeks, So you
need to only split the next two to even be
in the conversation. So when you talk about the AFC
North and where we were, I think they could be.
Three and four months ago, the Bengals started out hot
and everyone said, yeah, this is the year. And then
(15:17):
poor Joey Burrow and his turf toe out for at
least three months. I call that a port Manzi knows
what I'm talking about. Monzi, do you feel bad for
Joe Burrows?
Speaker 8 (15:31):
I was so sorry.
Speaker 3 (15:32):
That was so funny.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
That was so freaking funny. Thank you, Hey, nobody Joe
Burrow keeps about three months. So the Bengals went from
this is it? How many people wrote down Joe Burrow
as their MVP pick on the Fox Sports Radio in studio,
(15:55):
She we have right, I mean a lot of people said.
A lot of people said, everyone's comparing him to Andrew Luck.
Sounds like Andrew bad luck Burrow not happened in Bengals.
I mean they've got trash since he got, you know,
taken out.
Speaker 2 (16:10):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
I'm hoping for the best, just for the sake of
good football in his career. Lamar not from a Revenger
the Nerds. No, Lamar Jackson hamstring injury means Cooper Rush
is taken over by the way, you know. Lamar from
Revenge of the Nerds was also in Cobra Kai in
the original Karate Kid in the actual movie, Really Yeah.
(16:34):
Lamar from the Revenger of Nerds through the Javelin was
also in Cobra Kai. I mean, how cool. He's almost
in the All Valley Karate Champion back in eighty four.
He's almost as cool as the actor I never know
his name who played Francis and Pee's Big Adventure. Who
is also the guy that said look, it's Enrico Palazzo,
who was also Chubb, who was also Chubbs and teen Wolf. Yeah,
(16:54):
that guy, he might be the coolest. Yeah. So anyway,
Lamar Jackson out for weeks, Cooper Rush taken over. No
one ever ever thought that they would drop all these
close games, right. They lost to the Chiefs Lions at
a tough early schedule, but lost all those games.
Speaker 4 (17:11):
I'm sorry, I just got in your ear and said
Mark Holton. Who's He's the guy who played He was
also John Wayne Gacy in the movie Gasey.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Oh man, that's an actor right there.
Speaker 3 (17:19):
Yeah he was.
Speaker 1 (17:19):
He was in Pee Wee's Brown and the Browns are trashed.
They bench Flacco for Dylan Gabriel. They're still trying to
figure it out. Shed Or Sanders is like being all
silly and doesn't know what's going on there.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
He went full mime. That was so good.
Speaker 1 (17:32):
So, I mean that division who we thought was like
this is the division, all of a sudden it looks
like cheeks and there's Aaron Rodgers, as Colin Cowhart likes
to point out, very unproductive in the big picture of quarterbacks,
like his QB rating and you know where he assesses
amongst the NFL quarterbacks not very high. That doesn't matter though,
(17:52):
because they're off to a three and one start and
now they're sitting on a buy. They come back and
they are infirm control of the Seen North. Nice and
it just shows you that everyone's like Aaron Rodgers, Oh,
come on, they got Burrow and Lamar and you know
Cleveland's gonna try to make some noise yo. Yeah, But
did they really size up with the better teams or
(18:13):
is it just a matter of these other teams win winning? Man?
When someone's winning, I don't you know.
Speaker 5 (18:18):
And you can also say the Steelers are just a
better ran organization than the Jets.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
Can we talk about where the Steelers go over the
next couple of weeks. They're on a bye, then they
play the Browns okay four, and then they play the
Bengals without Burrow, Then they play the Packers and the Colts.
Let's say they split those right, five and two. Yeah,
but you're the first guy to point out like a
(18:44):
week five and one or a week sick. Remember you
were real hard on the Green Bay Packers one year
they were thirteen and something. Yeah, but they're not that.
I was hard on someone who was a soft way
Packers were. They were with someone else. But I'm I'm
I do get down on teams that have a like
they're a soft team.
Speaker 4 (19:04):
That last year jan Packers went like they did not
do well against their own division, but they had a
lot of wins.
Speaker 2 (19:09):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (19:10):
I think there's certain teams whose record don't indicate how
good or bad they really are. We really won't know.
They might be King of the North, like you said,
sounds a Game of the Thrones. They might be King
of the North over King Jeoffrey. But how do they
signe up against other really good teams? I know, but
that's really what I'm wondering. But we talked about, Hey,
Aaron Rodgers, you remember we talked about like what's the goal? Oh,
(19:32):
maybe if he just makes the playoffs, And I think
I think this team is in. I mean, with Burrow out,
you might as well just cancel out the Bengals. The
Browns are, like I said, Cheeks and the Ravens have
such a road ahead of them and a really tough schedule,
and without Lamar that changes everything. You're putting the ball
and the control of the game in the hands of
Cooper Rush no offense. Aaron Rodgers is now the king
(19:55):
of the AFC North until you tell me otherwise. And
I find it hilarious because no one cares about it.
We're paying attention to them, and I think, just secretly,
that team's gonna be pretty good. Now, your thoughts on
Aaron Rodgers, it's hard to debate that there are tops
of the AFC North. Shows you injury, I think they're
gonna be That all does to show you that with
(20:16):
injuries and some mix ups and things here, that you
never know what's gonna happen, right, I mean, your thoughts
on that. But we need a winner for Mike's Wednesday
Words of Wisdom?
Speaker 5 (20:25):

Speaker 3 (20:48):
If at first you don't succeed, I yeah, I think
it may not be for you.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
No, that's one of the easier ones. You missed it,
but ben Rice did.
Speaker 8 (21:02):
Well.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
Would it have been cool to have him in the
lineup last night? Yankees up two to oh in the
first inning because Ben Rice, you know the guy that
you left out a line up yesterday? I just hit
a bomb told you he's the guy. But hey, nice
try who do we got next?
Speaker 3 (21:14):
Jason to Maryland?
Speaker 1 (21:19):
Ready to do this? Words of wisdom? Take it away?

High Spot gives you something we call mid week Major.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
Covino and Rich gets you over the middle of the week.
When mid Week Major, I love that we throw sports
and pop culture headlines and topics at the fellas and
it's like the kids say.
Speaker 7 (24:27):
That's so we definitely major.
Speaker 1 (24:30):
See it our scoring mid week major.
Speaker 5 (24:34):
I gotta go fast because Spotty said he needs like
fourteen minutes today. He's gonna have to settle for seven though.
All right, we hand things over to the two boys
with the two big red love dice.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Excuse me, man, boys, I just rolled the three and.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
Now it's a rich roll.
Speaker 1 (24:51):
What's that? I went?
Speaker 3 (24:56):
All right? That means Carinos. Hey, guys gets first take.
Speaker 1 (24:59):
Yeah, all right, and now it's like that rare occurrence
where like you actually beat the dealer in Vegas.
Speaker 5 (25:06):
Right, two craps, ladies and gentlemen. The most famous man.
There's a more famous woman, Judy Bloom Scott Swains, New Jersey,
Spotty boy. Yeah, it's not hard to be more famous.
All right, how you guys doing, Who's going first? Mel Covino?
Let's see where should we start?
Speaker 1 (25:22):
Oh?
Speaker 9 (25:22):
You love handsome men, so we'll start with Rob Low.
Oh maybe handsome, but his integrity may be in question.
So Reds fans are seeing red after Low was spotted
last night at last night's Dodgers game as they dominated
the Reds ten to five, seemingly rooting for the Dodgers
and against the Reds. On screen during Tommy Edmonds third
(25:43):
inning home run, Lowe was wearing a twenty twenty four
World Series Champion La hat. The only problem is low
grew up in Ohio, and it's given interviews before where
he has stated that he is a massive Reds fan,
saying that he once even created his own number eight
Joe Morgan shirt and bore that thing everywhere. So low
has been, you know, a Los Angelino for years. He's
(26:04):
been acting for years, regularly attends Dodgers games, and fans
assumed his allegiance Liede with the.
Speaker 1 (26:09):
Reds midweaker major. I think he got so much flatforn
a generic NFL. I thought that he had to make
a choice here, So I can't blame him for that.
I thought he was gonna wear a Rob Manford shirt. Yeah,
it wasn't wear an MLB hat this time. Look, he's
an Ohio guy, but he's so synonymous with Hollywood at
this point here for fates he's been famous. He's a
(26:29):
teenager basically, it's the Outsiders and probably before that. So
I don't blame him for saying, hey, I have some
loyalty to the Reds. But I'm a Dodgers guy. I've
been out here in La my whole life and career,
so I understand. I'm not mad at it. I think
it's a mid story. I think it's mid because if
you make a big deal about Rob Blow's alliance, that's
(26:50):
that's mid of you. But it's a good story spot
because you know, we always talk about allegiance on the show,
very la of him, and I've had to come to
grips with the fact that it's more in La than
Rob Lowe. You had your chance, I've had. I've had
to come to grips with the fact that I think
my son Ben, who's five, likes The Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
He's smart.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
Yeah, he's an l a kid. We I bought MLB
twenty five the show for his for his Nintendo switch.
I was like, you know what instead of him on
his iPad. I'm like, yo, me and you could play
the show together. And he's like, dankt me the Dodgers.
I'm like, but you mean the Mets. He's like, no,
the Dodgers. I want to be Mookie and Freddy and
I go, do you meet Lindor and Soda. I want
to be a winner. So, I mean, you know, not
(27:37):
Mookie Wilson, Mookie bets All. You know, you live somewhere
long enough, you adapt. I I'm not going to do that,
but I get it. Rob Low does he really care
that much anyway? He's a Hollywood guy. He's a sports,
very passionate. He is a very passionate sport. He's a
cool dude. Yeah, he's he's a he's a you know,
a man amongst men. Yeah, really is all right?
Speaker 9 (27:56):
Anyway, Sanders, I don't know if you saw this floating
around getting some attention for being a man of no words.
Speaker 1 (28:03):
So Sanders spoke with.
Speaker 9 (28:04):
The media today and was asked about the Browns decision
to bench Joe Flacco in favor of fellow rookie Dylan
Gabriel ahead of this Sunday's game across the Pond in London.
Speaker 1 (28:14):
This is what he said.
Speaker 9 (28:16):
Exactly. He was seen just mouthing the answer on camera
but not saying anything. He was even asked like if
he could vocally express his feelings, and went on to
keep mouthing the words, getting a kick out of himself,
laughing the entire time. Clearly he wanted he thought he
should be stepping in his did rookie, not the other guy.
But Gabriel did, however, speak saying that he's excited for
(28:38):
the opportunity, and Flacco said that while he never foresaw
the move, he acknowledged that the team hasn't been performing
very well the first four weeks. Go figure midweek er major.
It's a major story. Everybody loves talking about s Geory Sanders.
Speaker 1 (28:50):
There's been quarterback controversy since day one surrounding him and
this whole team. And what's the old saying spot Yeah nice? No, no,
if you got nothing nothing nice to say, trick or
treats mell like me. So I think he took that
and had some fun with it. He'd be like, you know, yeah,
I'd rather not say my true feelings otherwise if he did,
(29:13):
he'd probably get more criticism. So he played it safe.
I'm okay with it because at least he brought some
some fun to it. I just feel dumb because I
kept clicking my Instagram like, where's the volume, where's the
what's my volume off?
Speaker 3 (29:25):
Maybe?
Speaker 1 (29:26):
Oh, this sounds video sound. Oh he's not talking. Oh listen, man,
it's it's funny. But you could say, like a rookie
movie these kids are young, right, so, but why are
we surprised Dylan Gabriel was a higher draft pick than
should or Sanders. He just comes with the flash. I
think the funny part is he refused to be drafted
by the Ravens because he didn't want to back up
Lamar Jackson. Had he wet with them and didn't refuse it,
(29:47):
he'd be starting for the next three weeks. And now
he's backing up Gabriel. Yeah, that's that's ironic, you think
for sure. So I would say major just because there's
not much else going on in Cleveland, and clearly he
thinks it should be him. He doesn't need to really
express that. Yeah, all right, I'll go with Lebron.
Speaker 9 (30:06):
Lebron getting some backlash yet again. He does it so well,
this time getting called out by fans for appearing on
a live stream with popular streamer Twitch streamer kay sin.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
Is Sinat right. H Yeah.
Speaker 9 (30:17):
After Laker's head coach JJ Reddick held James out of
practice due to quote glute nerve irritation, so as the
team said back to practice, rehdd it said it will
be a slower process easing Lebron back into the game
due to his twenty two years of wear and tear
on his body, said they were playing the long game
with Lebron. Lebron, so he decided to head over to
(30:38):
Sinat's Mafia Than three and appear on his stream where
he shaved Snat's head. There were other celebrities moving through
like Snoop Dogg, Mariah Carey, Kim Kardashian, So you know,
maybe it would have been a better look if he
kind of chilled off camera.
Speaker 3 (30:53):
But midweek er major.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
You know, most things involving Lebron are major, but this
mid this feels like just feels like a mid story.
I'm not following. Fine, I'll take it. He's right, it's mid.
I just think the insinuation that after all the years
and hard work and training and conditioning Lebron James put
it puts in if you think some training with the
(31:18):
Lakers at this stage, like if he's like, yeah, I'm
a little out of it and then ends up on
some streamers stream like, you know, at this point, were
really questioning Lebron james dedication. Stop being ridiculous. Oh and
by the way, basis load of Noel for the Red Sox.
Doland just bounced to one hoper to first, and is
that Bellinger that had to come off the bag? I
(31:39):
think it was Oh wow, look at that bass juice
for the socks. That that's major. I'm with you, what's it?
He has a little belly ache. What's going on? He's
got a glute nerve irritation? Yeah, I wasn't sure if
it was an ass issue or is honestly his answers.
(31:59):
You thought gluten intolerance gluten. I thought it was a
gluten no gluten soler. He's got a butt problem. He's
got a butt problem. So yeah, he does a little
podcast instead. Whatever. We were, well, hey Monty, do you
have a gut intolerance? He don't it don't. I'm good?
All right? How are we doing? What's doing? Manci?
Speaker 8 (32:19):
For an update, As you mentioned, things getting interesting between
between the Yankees and the Red Sox with Boston getting
the bases loaded. They've got all their outs in this
third inning, even though the Yankees are on the scoreboard.
Speaker 1 (32:32):
Ben Rice started things off with the two run shots.
Remind me did he play yesterday?
Speaker 3 (32:37):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (32:38):
Okay, I was just I was just remind me. I
forgot for a second.
Speaker 8 (32:42):
I wasn't trying to burn us I was Manny Machado
hit a two run shots today and the Padre shut
out the Cups three zero to force a game three.
Guardians are forcing a game three against the Tigers. They
scored five runs in the bottom of the eighth inning,
capped off by a three run shot from Boat Naylor.
Speaker 1 (32:57):
Cleveland won that game six to one.
Speaker 8 (33:00):
I believe the Red Sox on the Muno still wars
we're good, okay. I was like, I think they may
have scored on yet not yet, okay. NFL News Commander's
head coach Dan Quinn confirmed that Jayden Daniels has been
medically cleared to return.
Speaker 1 (33:12):
He is on track to start Sunday against the Chargers.
Speaker 8 (33:15):
Chargers head coach John Harbaugh announced that Joe Alt with
this high ankle sprain, is doubtful to play this week.
Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving, dealing with an ankle sprain,
was seen in a walking boot at practice, but he
has not been ruled out for Sunday's game. Browns are
benching quarterback Joe Flacco. They're starting rookie Dylan Gabriel as
you mentioned, for Sunday's game in London against the Vikings
(33:37):
by the way Cavino. Joe Flacco is technically the backup.
It is not Shador Sanders. Oh wow, yes, so he
is technically not even moved up yet. Joe Flacco is
still the backup and the forty nine ers have rolled
out everybody. Well, I'm just kidding Brock Pardy Jawan Jennings
and Ricky Piersol for Thursday night football against the Rams,
and Mac Jones will get the start. Yankees did get
(33:59):
it out here, so Bass is still loaded by the
Red Sox.
Speaker 1 (34:02):
But one out, two.
Speaker 8 (34:04):
To go for this inning.
Speaker 1 (34:06):
Guys, it's been fun. Missed you. Back to you. Thank
you Yankees. Uh yeah, scored none with the Bassis juice
last night, so maybe maybe it's your turn to shut
him down. One out, one one and Trevor Story's up
and his career at the basis load of Cavino not
too shabby, he said, some grand salamis in his life.
(34:26):
I want to just watch one more pitch and see
if something good happen. Oh no, base it up the
middle likely Yeah, one two scored two scored to too
now as we're in the top of the wonderful Sorry
to say that, buddy boy. We got more Kevin on
Rich and a story about redemption in sports and entertainment,
(34:47):
and it has to do with fitty cent. I'll explain.
We'll do that and keep you updated on Yank's sulks

read because I was really feeling that fifty cent man, Amen, Man, Amen,
quick reminder before we talk fifty cent tomorrow, we do
(35:32):
Old School and fifty hits yo, every Thursday. It's already Thursday,
damn starting the weekend early tomorrow early, Like mister Furley,
we throw it back and reminisce. So please join us
Manyana Old School in fifty hits every Thursday on the
Cavino and Rich show, Getting You Involved eight seven, seven
ninety nine on Fox. But I was Sam plays some
fifty cent because I have a story. Well, he's infamously
(35:55):
known to rock the microphone and for having arguably one
of the worst pitches first pitches in baseball history. For
your goofy Mets, he threw out the first pitch at
City Field.
Speaker 3 (36:08):
And couldn't even really call it a pitch.
Speaker 1 (36:10):
I mean other than other than Mariah Carey and Baba
Booie and yeah they You know, you have your infamous
list of if it wasn't there one gymnast want that
do like a flip and throw the ball right down
into the ground like there are some legendary awful first pitches,
and Fiddy said is synonymous with it. It's sort of
like the joke I'm sure amongst his boys. But he's
(36:31):
such a fit guy. You know, he's fifty cent. I'm sorry,
fifty cent. You expect him to have some sort of athleticism. No,
that's what he gets for being a false advertiser because
he's always wearing a Yankees at So there he is
in your Metz jersey, throwing that weak ass pitch. You
and I've talked about, when is the one time you'd
wear another jersey or hat or something. I said, if
(36:53):
a team like I give you the example, if they said,
if our affiliate in Saint Louis said Hey, Covino and
Rich come throughout the first pitch. I'd throw a Cardinal's
hat just to go out there and throw the pitch
and be like, hey, everyone liked.
Speaker 3 (37:05):
I think you'd be real gangster if you kept a
Mets hat on.
Speaker 1 (37:07):
Yeah. I think I'd wear a Yankees hat and a
Willy McGee jersey. Yeah, but I mean that that just
makes you look like an ungrateful ahole. Why I'm rocking
the McGee. Then then they'd probably be like, no, thanks,
you rather not throw out the first pitch? I think
have you ever seen someone throw out the first pitch?
Have you ever seen someone throw out the first pitch
at your stadium and not wear your shirt? That would
be disrespectful. It's like going to someone's house and bring
It's like going to someone an Italian old lady's house
(37:30):
and bringing your own food. All right, Well, I'm not
trying to debate that. What we're trying to say is
it's redemption. He does an appearance with you guessed it,
the Savannah Bananas. He comes out singing in the club
and all the Savannah Bananas and dancers are popping bottles
of champagne. There has to be a pressure goat moment,
(37:52):
I would think here for him. No, I think no pressure.
What's over And I'll tell you why, because everyone's watching
to see if he sucks even worse this time. He's
with the bananas. It's light and fun. He's singing. It's
a party. And I think if he throws out a
bad first pitch, it's funny because it's like another bad one,
a or redemption. I don't you think he wants to
(38:13):
redeem himself? And you know what, he threw a good
enough pitch, good enough, good, kind of like our show.
Speaker 5 (38:18):
Yeah, I think the pressure you're talking about Couvino would
have been if he was at another MLB state fair.
Speaker 1 (38:22):
Yeah, fair enough, Okay, just a light, fun moment with
the bananas. And you know what, it was a little outside.
It wasn't like a dead on strike like George W. Bush,
but it was it was good. He did a movement
like the Queen did and naked gun. Yeah he didn't
throw a screwball. But is he left e Is that
what makes it look weird? He's lefty, right, so he
(38:43):
throws it, but he looks like, let's say you're a righty.
Oh wait, Waite the city Sence pigeon. Don't put Jazz
Chisholmore bed.
Speaker 5 (38:49):
Rice on the lineup. It looked way better. It looked
like Sandy Kofax like took him under his wing.
Speaker 7 (38:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (38:56):
Again, it was a big improvement. He looked proud. He
didn't give a little fist pump like, yeah, I got
that out of the way, as you could see on
our video again, Covino and Rich streaming live on our
new YouTube channel, Covino and Rich FSR. Covino and Rich FSR.
Well a loose up in a key spot with two
on one out, the Yankees and Socks are tied. Your
old pal Danny g Cody Bellinger was he cluttery you
(39:19):
guys of the postseason.
Speaker 3 (39:21):
He was inconsistent for the Dodgers in the postseason.
Speaker 1 (39:23):
Play Wow, double steal for the Yankees, double Steve taking
away the double play? Well, enjoy the game. Look, it's
a it's practically a game seven about either of these teams.
But you can feel the rivalry and the intensity. You
really could like you'm bad. It's back, Like, honestly, I
don't I don't care for either of the teams, but
you can't argue that it's like the one of the
(39:43):
top three rivalries in all sports. Yankees Red Sox postseason.
It felt like it died down for a minute and
now it's yeah, cool to see. There's a little hatred
and no love loss there, so uh hey, something fun
to watch. We'll see you guys manyana. Enjoy your Wednesday there,
cheep baby, Let's go Yankees, see you in the Promised Land.
(40:04):
Let it guys. Mm hmm.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
