it's gonna be fun. Man, I'm excited. So hey, Cavino, myself,
Danny G, the whole crew gonna be out and about
doing our show live from the Graduate Hotel in Tempe,
which is on Apache Boulevard. We have to play Apache
when we're there, Danny G. Break out your old school
hip hop stupid jump Boner, John Boner. Yeah, you gotta

(01:31):
do the then four to six pm Happy hour. Before
that you can hang for our broadcast two to four
local time. So again, Tempi Arizona. By the way, you
know how Fonso Robiro was in the news this weekend
because he publicly said that the character Carlton Carlton ruined
his career as much as he loved it. He was
just so typecasted and no one could see past that.

(01:54):
And growing up an eighties kid, he was like the
epitome of cool. He played Michael, He was like little
Michael Jackson.

Speaker 2 (01:59):
Yeah. The word he used, he said it was a sacrifice. Yeah,
it was both both the blessing and a curse to
play such a great character.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
No one could see past Carlton. As you mentioned Apache.
But yeah, we'll see you in this Friday, but stick
around this hour because we're giving away some prizes. We
got a very special Monday edition of Iron Mike Trivia
because he's big in the news. Big fight coming up.
I hope you enjoyed the fight this weekend. I don't
want to be the guy that compares generations because I

(02:27):
do tend to think those are tired conversations and I
get sometimes those new angles and new storylines. I'm not
totally taking a crap on that story, but you know
the the lebronso Noon, like Lebron versus you know, MJ
and those type of conversations. But when you watch Tyson,
Fury and Usik, yeah, I have a hard time mentally

(02:50):
gauging how they stack up against other generations. A heavyweight,
it's like a big we glorify the past like a
big one. But I'm saying, like a big guy like
a Fury who's six ' seven, Lusik is undisputed, hasn't
happened in what twenty something in years, But I'm saying,
like these guys that Mike Tythan in his prime would
have just knocked out, or would these guys have given
Tyson problems? Like a guy like Fury who's long and

(03:11):
big and six seven. Who's to say he wouldn't have
what Mike Tyson's ass. We don't know that, We don't know.
It's a very hard comparison. Fighting's tough with that, but
I know people used to love to do the whole
a Lei Tyson one. I'm just thinking, with these heavyweights
we're seeing now, like the Deontay Wilders and the Anthony Joshuas,
how do they even stack up against like the clitch
goes like heavyweight boxing. To me, I'll tell you how

(03:32):
Fury knocked out he won his beltrum the clitch goes.
That's how Fury got his belts to start. Yeah, but
it was towards the end of their career though. No, Yeah,
but I mean he was still at clitchko. I mean
that is a true boys you know, the whole Lennox
Lewis days. These are big boys. How would Tyson stack up?
We've seen some of it, but again, styles make fights.
That's why it never really makes sense to me. It's

(03:54):
the truest thing. It's the most cliche thing, but it's
the truest thing. So shout out to Kyle's sitting Kyle
sitting hit us up at Covino and Rich. He's the
one that says the pictures of us from Eugene organ
this weekend, it looks like everyone dressed up as themselves
for Halloween. It's so true. You see all of our
pictures and all the fun and antics at Covino and Rich.

(04:16):
Looking forward to again Arizona on Friday. Now, before you
get into this rock bottom, think I just throw one
stack because I know you're a big baseball stack guy. Sure,
there's a guy going under the radar. I had Dwayne Stat.
I just want to I just want to give him
a shout out because I heard my dude, my dude,
Rob Parker shouting him out the other day, so I
had to look up his stats myself. Is enough people

(04:37):
talking about are enough people talking about the comeback year
that Chris Sale is having. Guy was a cy young
type of guy for the Boston Red Sox at times
had great stuff White Sox. Like Chris Sale has always
been a pretty solid dude, right m hm. Then he
sort of fell off. You know, he's six and one

(04:58):
with a two something era for the Brave Sale So
I mean no, he's like, you know, it's nice. We
you know, it's nice to point out people that found
their way back because it's not easy. I think pitching
might be the number one position in all of sports
where when you fall off, getting back is not easy.

(05:20):
I think about it, Danny. If you're a baseball plus
you reinvent you have all of a sudden, If all
a sudden you start your bat. You used to be
a guy that batt at two eighty to three hundred.
You're betting two hundred. You're never going to beat two
ninety again. If you're a pitcher that would have twenty wins,
you're never winning twenty again. If you stop, No, you're
not kidding.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
We're experiencing that here in Los Angeles with Walker Bueler.
He was away from the Dodgers for two years dealing
with his second Tommy John surgery, and he was one
of the He was an ace on their staff.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
He was elate leading up to that.

Speaker 2 (05:47):
It's taking him three starts now just to look like
he's back to the speed of MLB.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
Twenty twelve to twenty eighteen. That is one, two, three, four, five, six,
seven seasons in a row. Chris Sale was an All
Star and finished in the top six in the Cy
Young voting every year top six seven years in a row,
never won one, second place, third place, fifth place, fourth place,
never won. But Chris Sale then for Kubino twenty nineteen,

(06:18):
terrible fell off. That was a year fell off, twenty twenty,
didn't play during COVID injury, then in twenty twenty one,
twenty two to twenty three, never really got back to form,
and now he looks like he's found himself again and
at thirty five years old. So congrats to Chrissale. I
like hearing stories like that. How do you not right?
I saw an amazing stat that John Smoltz was talking

(06:41):
about Tony Gwinn. Anytime you hear a Tony Gwinn's stat,
you're like, man, this guy never got enough credit. He
said between tell he's a stat like you struck out
more in Little League and Tony Gwynn did his whole
life like it's only something absurd. It was something like
between Smaltz, Maddox Glavin and like Pedro, they have twelve
thousand strikeouts combined. They faced Tony Gwynn like three hundred

(07:06):
and thirty times in his career and only struck him
out three times. Yeah, I've been all those dudes. Like
you hear Tony Gwinn's status, You're like, man, he doesn't
get enough credit. I love me some good stats. I
love me some good baseball. In fact, this weekend, in
between all the exciting Game sevens and the Usik Fury fight,

(07:29):
I was sitting around lounging and I remember hearing about
this documentary on Peacock and it's about the nineteen ninety
Yankees called the Bronx Zoo. You're like, what's so special
about the nineteen ninety Yankees. Absolutely nothing. I remember watching
them as a kid. One of the most infamous stories
that you remember is Andy Hawkins pitching a no hitter

(07:52):
and losing the game. I do remember that that epitomized
the whole season. Like they stunk, and they had a
bunch of like criminal and whack a doodles on the team.
Mel Hall was on that team. He's in prison now,
he's in prison. In the documentary for forty five Years,
Luis Polonia, Dion Sanders was on that squad. It was

(08:13):
just like a bunch of like random people. They were
mixed matching characters. George Steinbrenner was just going crazy trying
to build a team around veterans like Don Mattingley. Don
Mattingley gets hurt, he's out for the whole season. Pascual Perez,
they got him. He's hurt, he's out for the whole season.
And he was a train wreck. Anyway, I forget Pascual Perez.

(08:34):
He's supposed to be a star for you guys. He
was supposed to be. He didn't report the spring training.
He had a bad drug problem. Like I said, he
got hurt, he was out. Long story short, they were
the worst. They started off with Bucky Dent as the manager,
and they ended up with Stump Merrill as the manager.
Merrow Dump Meryl. They were like a traveling circus of misfits.

(08:55):
And then when Don Manningley got hurt, they called up
Kevin Moss. By the way, where is this documentary that
people call off Peacock. If you watched The Great Dan Patrick,
you probably have it. If you want to watch your
football is the upcoming season, you gotta have it. So
you don't need to appreciate the Yankees to appreciate the

(09:17):
sentiment of the story here. Okay, so Don Manningly gets hurt,
they call up this rookie Kevin Moss. Now, you guys
probably remember him if you collected baseball cards especially. He
was a future star, and I think he still holds
the record till this day for the fastest to reach
twenty one home runs. He had over ten in his
first hundred at bats. Dude could hit a fastball. He

(09:39):
was hitting bombs, Kevin Moss, and that is what opened
up the eyes to all the new people they were
bringing in Jeans Stick, Michael Buck, Showalter. When they started
to rebuild, They're like, we took a chance on Kevin Moss.
Let's take a chance on our homegrown talent, on these
young guys that we got here. And they brought up
the core four. They started revolving the team around Bernie

(10:02):
Williams and Pettitt and Rivera and Posada and Jeter, and
then after having the worst season ever in nineteen ninety,
in ninety four, they're right where they need to be.
It's a strike ninety five to make the playoffs. Ninety
six begins the dynasty. So the point of the story
is sometimes you need to hit rock bottom and be
the absolute worst like they were in nineteen ninety to

(10:26):
force significant change, which they did in a short amount
of time to again, like I said, start the dynasty
and make a real change. I don't think sometimes, I
think all the time. So we posed a question in
life in sports other examples, do you have to hit
rock bottom to be great? Because that's what started at all?
That's the whole point. Like to see where to see

(10:48):
how the Yankees got to where they were during that
winning era of theirs, you have to go back to
see why they had to make all these moves in
the first place, because they were that bad in nineteen ninety.
I'm a firm believer in forget sometimes. I think all
the time. In life, you need to hit rock bottom
sometimes otherwise otherwise you won't make a change. And I'll

(11:10):
throw a couple of examples at you. I think the
worst thing that could happen in the NFL. So we
all know football's king, we all love football the most.
But there's nothing worse than Danny g will tell you
because his team's been in that position. If you're seven
and nine, six and ten, but when there was a
sixteen game schedule. Sorry, I think the Dallas Cowboys are

(11:31):
a great example because they're good, they're packing seats, so
that we'll need to make those changes because they're still
making money. I don't agree with that, because I think
every year the Cowboys think they could contend. I'm talking
about teams like the Saints, the.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
Yeah radar you're drafting eleventh, twelfth, where.

Speaker 1 (11:46):
Yeah, where you're like the Cowboys have are a big draft
pick and they have free agents may want to go
to Dallas. I'm talking about teams that are seven and ten, nine,
nine and eight, six and eleven, where you're not drastic enough,
you're not flipping around, you're not getting the top three
pick and you're not and you're not making the playoffs
every year, so you're stuck in this purgatory of ore

(12:07):
we won. You don't know if you're one player away
or you suck. So you're saying it's even better to
be rock bottom in the middle of the pack. Is
the middle of the pack is not going to force
any significance as you look like the teams like the
Cowboys and the Eagles and Niners like that. Those teams
that are consistently pretty good, they think at least every
year they have a chance, and they do. It's really
teams like no Offense, Danny like the Raiders who have

(12:29):
had seasons where seven and you know, I guess had
seven and ten, eight and nine, nine and eight.

Speaker 2 (12:34):
Where really, you're right, since twenty sixteen when they had
that great record, they've been the middle of the pack since.
And you're not good enough to dominate yet you're not
bad enough to get a pick at the top five
that will really change your franchise.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
Look at look at baseball, he said, baseball with the
Yankees in the nineties, they stay finished by the way
that season sixty five and ninety seven, and they went
on a little bit of a streak because of the
Kevin Moss stuff, and you know, some of these younger
players starting to pick up that slack and that's where
they got inspired. But you know, sixty five and ninety
seven to again a dynasty just six years later. Well

(13:08):
there's a better example, but they just don't have the
dramatic stories that the Yankees have of the drugs and
craziness of those nineties teams. The Astros cheaters or not,
were and are a dynasty. They're been playing terrible this year,
but you remember the Astros had like three they had
seasons in a row where they had like fifty or
sixty wins, like we're talking Garbaggio Sousio. Yeah, so the

(13:32):
Astros were so bad before they consistently were winning one
hundred games a year. Let me look up the Astros.
Think of all these bottom feeders, right rock bottom m
andem style like we said, and realized that you could
only go up from there. So that's the positive outlook there.
And sometimes you need that rock bottom to make that
shakeup and to get to where you need to be.

(13:55):
And unfortunately you see that in life too. You see
that in life that a lot of people that are
doing well actually had a hit rock bottom to get
them motivated and to get them back on track. Because
when you're live in just that every day sort of
like you said, middle of the ground routine, no change,
no significant change is forced upon you. It's like our

(14:16):
buddy Spot, dude, why is he the epitome of good
health and flexing all the time and why does he
think he's in Adonis now? Because he was out of shape,
he was a slot, he hit rock bottom, he got
quintuple open heart surgery, bypass surgery. He's his life depended
on it. So if he was in mediocre shape and

(14:38):
he was just cruising around like every you know, he
would have never been forced to make that change.

Speaker 2 (14:44):
He said, they found pizza crust from nineteen eighty nine.

Speaker 1 (14:46):
They did in his art, They found gobbagoul, they found
spaghettios from eighty seven stuck in his arteries, and that
forced him to make a change. So I would say,
based on the story of the nineteen ninety Yankees, you
look at any team that stinks and you got to say, hey,
I'd rather be that team than the Saints or any
middle of the pack team that you.

Speaker 2 (15:06):
Want to pick.

Speaker 1 (15:06):
When they when they cut up in spot, you know,
luckily is good now, but they were like, wait a minute,
is that a gusher frusnack in there? And yeah, they
found a lot ima cool now, I said. The Astros, right,
listen to this. They found a dunk aou from ninety two,
in twenty eleven, twenty twelve, and twenty thirteen. You hear
me there, twenty eleven to twenty thirteen, three years in

(15:27):
a row. Yeah, the Houston Astros were fifty six and
one oh six, fifty five and one oh seven and
fifty one and one eleven. Fast forward a couple of years,
starting in twenty fifteen three years later, made the playoffs
every year since, including a few World Series. Well so,
and sometimes you need to rock coletely. Rock Bottom forces

(15:50):
you to make significant changes, right, managerial changes, player changes.
According to this documentary, and I didn't know this as
a lifelong Yankee fan, there was only one one Yankee
on that whack ass nineteen ninety team that won in
ninety six with them, and that was Jim Lairetz. You know,
I get it sometimes the fans rather see a winner
than a loser. But I feel like Dan Bayer and

(16:13):
I've had this conversation about his Seahawks, where we like
Gino Smith. He's a really good guy, a good quarterback.
But the Seattle Seahawks, with the current roster and everything,
they could make the playoffs. They could not make the playoffs.
But you're not good enough to win it all, but
you're not bad enough to make a big chance.

Speaker 2 (16:30):
Yeah. Absolutely, And there's yeah.

Speaker 3 (16:31):
Being in the middle absolutely stinks because you don't have
the reason to tear it all down, as you guys
were talking about. I will say though, that I think
that the Yankees are in such a unique spot. Just
using the Astros example, they didn't have the payroll of
what a Yankee team would be willing to do with
that team.

Speaker 1 (16:50):
The team that changed him around were all home grown players.
They just had to be able to keep them.

Speaker 2 (16:55):
Yeah, sure, sure.

Speaker 3 (16:57):
The part of the Astros, which I thought was so
challenging was how do you tell a fan base for
three years don't care about us? Because I think that
would be impossible to do. If you were like that
just wouldn't wouldn't fly in New York. And I remember
asking the old Astros GM Jeff Luno about this and saying, like,

(17:19):
because I just thought it was bad for the fans.
And I said, what about if it does? What about
if it doesn't work? So what doesn't work? And his
response was it's gonna work, And it ended up working.
I mean, so you have to have extreme confidence in
what you're doing, and I guess an ownership group that
is willing to back what you've done to really turn

(17:39):
it around. It's just gosh to do what the Astros did.

Speaker 1 (17:43):
You know what happened to with the ax Dan just
to it backs up what you're saying here. What was
toxic was George Steinbrenner as ownership and in nineteen ninety
he had put all his power aside to Gene Michael.
So Geen Michael took over and he eventually made Buck
showalter and charge and that changed everything. You know, Buck
Shoalder said. The first thing he said, he goes the

(18:04):
first opportunity I get. I'm getting rid of mel Hall
because he saw him as the problem and he was
getting in the way of future stars like Bernie Williams.
He was bullying Bernie Williams and wasn't letting him grow
as a player. So I would say, think of all
the weak ass teams. It could be your weak ass office,
wherever you work, your weak gass crew. Who's the I

(18:26):
hate I don't like this expression, but they say, who's
the cancer? Right, who's the problem? Who is that problem?
Get rid of them? Find a way because he's bringing
down everybody. Yeah, and listen, I'm gonna starts with management
about advocating. You know, just break up with your mediocre relationship.
But a lot of times someone stuck in a let's
be honest, like they're dating someone that's maybe not the

(18:48):
right person for them, but they're not great, they're not
super happy. But because there's not too much drama, they
just stay in an unhappy marriage.

Speaker 2 (18:57):
I think.

Speaker 3 (18:57):
I think the worst example, obviously you're talking against sports
was the seventy six ers. Trust the process, Yeah, because
you didn't see that through and then you never the
fruits of what you had sacrificed for so many years. Yeah,
you have Joel Embiid now, and how many different times
have they tried to put something around him and they

(19:18):
kind of fell into Joel Embiid. So there, you know,
there were years of bad draft picks and bad moves
of them even admitting that they were going to stink,
and then there was no way that they even saw themselves.

Speaker 1 (19:28):
Out and it was not to rub the assault in
the wound. Danny j. I know, we gotta break because
we're playing Tis of Trivia. But back to your Raiders
for a second, just even moving forward with them with
Gardner Minshew who I like it just reeks of an
eight to nine or nine and eighteen that won't go anywhere,
but would excite you if they got a wildcard spot.

Speaker 2 (19:46):
The difference this offseason is that the Raiders defense is
ranked eighth going into this new season, whereas last season
they were ranked twenty eighth. So Antonio appears to that
staff have done a great job of turning that defense around.

Speaker 1 (20:00):
It's turning dilemmas into dilemonade. Do you think if you're
rock bottom, you might actually be sitting in a better position.
And I don't care if you care about the Yankees.
It's a great story and it's a great watch. Again,
it's called the Bronx Zoo on Peacock if you want
to check it out. Do you think that's why the
Bears did make the decision to say, let's get off
justin fields, let's just totally go for it with Caleb
Williams and I remember for a minute it was like, oh,

(20:23):
maybe we trade the pick and keep fields and build
around them. I think that was the scenario of like, listen,
we're at rock bottom, this is the time to take
that big chance and we'll see this year. A lot
of people, including people on the network, including our friends
out FS one, like the Nick Rights of the world.
There's people that are saying the Bears are a playoff team,
so we shall see all right now, if you want

This rock Bottom Rich keeps thinking about Dwayn Johnson's ass
that whole time. I start a twinkle in his eye.
It's also his final move rock Bottom, Yep Covino and
Rich on Fox Sports Radio rock Bottom minem style. It
could lead to greatness. That's what the Bronx Zoo is
about new series on Peacock about the nineteen ninety Yankees.

(23:04):
Because I asked im, you know, I said, Litten, dude,
I'm a pretty big baseball fan. What was special at
the nineteen ninety Yankees? Because in my mind, I'm like,
that was sort of a trash team. And he goes, exactly,
it's a great example of how when a team hits
rock bottom, that's when you're forced to make decisions. And
that applies to any sport, it applies to business, it
applies to relationships. A lot of times you won't make

(23:27):
a real decision until you're forced to with your health,
with your marriage, with your kids. Like it sounds terrible,
but if your kid's a troubled kid until they get
i don't know, like suspended from school or do something
really bad and you know, hopefully it's not harmful. Sometimes
you don't make a change until you hit rock bottom again.

in a leather jacket. I was you thinking of the
Mexican funds? I thought, yeah, I am. But again we're
gonna have that fun this Friday and Tempe, Arizona. So
hope to see you there, bring some friends and thanks
again to our affiliates everywhere. Dan Buyer is a big
golf guy. Dan, do you know any golfers at golf
in a leather jacket like Cavino at top Golf.

Speaker 2 (25:12):
No, it's funny you say that it works well, especially
in the summer months. And you know when.

Speaker 1 (25:18):
Jacket, you know it's business.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
When they put on the leather, he had like a he.

Speaker 1 (25:23):
Had like the swing like he was with a wedge
with a driver, because he could the leather was restricting
his backswing. I eventually took it off, but yeah, you
can see all that at Danny g Radio. We'll get
contesteds for Tyson's Trivia. I just want to make one
last dumb point, Dan Bayer. Sometimes I think I have
a doune point, and when Dan says like, oh I
never thought of that, it makes me feel less dumb.
So thank you Dan. I'm walking to the kitchen and

(25:45):
they're showing highlights of Julius Randall. It's just Dan being
a nice guy. Well that's true probably as well. But
I saw Julius Randall and they talk about how he
has two years left with the Knicks, and I'm like,
that's right, Julius Randall's lefty, So it is Brunson. Can
you think of any NBA team in history where their
two biggest players were lefties? And does that change anything

(26:06):
as far as how that offense runs where you're instinct
driving to the left to the right like you're like
a south point. Absolutely, I'm just saying it's an interesting thought.
I can't think of many lefty basketball players, not alone
two on the same team.

Speaker 3 (26:20):
No, and even just in baseball, of like does he
bat left, throw right? What is the breakdown? Like you
would always know? It makes Bill Belichick just that much more.
I don't know if a genius, but when he would
always want left footed kickers or punters because the ball
comes off differently when you punt left footed as opposed
to right footed.

Speaker 2 (26:40):
So crazy.

Speaker 1 (26:41):
And when you think of Dan and I were saying
left handed quarterbacks like Pennick juniors one to h Steve Young,
you got to think hard to be like, who's lefty again?
So yeah, Brunson and Julius Randall, But it is time
to play iron Mike trivia. Let's go.

Speaker 4 (26:58):
Mike Tyson was a maze.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
I want your heart, I want to eat a children,
but an ear to this.

Speaker 4 (27:03):
If you're a boxing brainy act tired, Mike Trivia can't.

Speaker 1 (27:09):
You're not man enough.

Speaker 2 (27:11):
All right, our security walk in our broke Mic into
the main studio there imaginated. You've been like this for
a few weeks.

Speaker 1 (27:18):
Now, I'm so angry that I I'm busy. I got
a train and anyway, Hey, we're up. Dam that's right, Mike.
You haven't had sex or had weed in months. No effect,
no weed, just Danny Ganny.

Speaker 2 (27:29):
How about that weird comment you made about your buddy
Jake Paul. Yeah, I'd rather not talk about that, I bet. Yeah,
but I'll tell you what. I'm no gimmick. People keep
saying to the gimmick. I'm no gimmick, and Jake Paul
can have to fight like it lacked depends on it. Yeah,
go back to our Friday Live show podcast. You'll hear Covino,
who quoted Mike tried to pull them.

Speaker 1 (27:49):
They call it a Freudian flip.

Speaker 2 (27:51):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (27:51):
Hey, you know, I want to bring up one thing.
Beware of AI on social media, not Ellen Irison, artificial intelligence.
And I bring this up because there's a fake rumor
going around where it's fake Joe Rogan's voice saying, how
Mike Tyson, Mike, you're incentivized to not win the fight. Yeah,
that's not real. Yeah, it's a it's a fake clip.
So people are saying, so it's fixed it more, it's not.

(28:12):
They're saying, this is legit, a.

Speaker 2 (28:14):
Legit, legit fight. Ahi, Let's meet the contestants. Is trivia
wind total on the show? Twenty three time winner Rich Davis, Right.

Speaker 1 (28:22):
Yeah, competitions not that tricky, except I'm Buyer here, so
my right, sixteen time champ Dan Buyer catching up to you,
hey and looking to win and seeing our stainless steel
Swiggy in our studio lines Chad in South Dakota.

Speaker 2 (28:35):
What up, Chad?

Speaker 1 (28:36):
Hey, good afternoon company, tough company. What's going on?

Speaker 4 (28:41):
Man?

Speaker 1 (28:41):
What do you do that? What do you do out
there in South Dakota? As Danny likes to ask, we
have a couple of.

Speaker 4 (28:46):
Part dealerships in an RB dealership here in beautiful.

Speaker 2 (28:49):
Nice man, very cool. All right, Here are the rules
for Iron Mike Trivia. The first contestant with two correct
answers is the champ. If there's a tie, we have
a tie breaker question. No, there'll be the champ. Your
name is your buzz, But you do have to wait
until all three possible answers are read. If there's two
wrong answers in a row, we move on to the
next question. Are you ready?

Speaker 1 (29:07):
Let's go, Let's get it all right here. All right, guys,
what year did I become the youngest heavyweight champion of
all time? The A nineteen eighty five, B. Nineteen eighty
six or c. Nineteen eighty seven?

Speaker 6 (29:20):
Chad, Chad.

Speaker 2 (29:25):
Rich Rich gave you a chance there. I saw it
in his eyes.

Speaker 1 (29:28):
I believe it's eighty six. It is no number twenty second.
Nineteen eighty six, became the youngest heavyweight champion of all time. Kid,
I have to call me kid, Dynamite.

Speaker 2 (29:37):
Rich Rich off to a quick start.

Speaker 1 (29:39):
I only knew that because eighty six was the last
year any of my teams won anything. Well, not the
forty nine. But I remember hanging out with Dwight Gooden
and Dowthrow. But I remember that picture. There's a famous picture,
and I wonder what that party was like eighty time.
I can't even talk about it on the radio. All right,
We moved around two with Rich on the boards. Round
two went after about my big biggest weakness. I was

(30:00):
once famously quoted as saying, Hey, my biggest weakness is
my sensitivity. I'm too sensitive of a person. Be my
biggest weakness is my kindness. I even felt bad for
the bully I knocked out as a kid. Or see.
My biggest weakness is women. I could put drugs away,
but I will always need another woman. What did I

(30:21):
once famously say, you're.

Speaker 2 (30:23):
Going to go the women route? See see No, sorry
about that, Chad for the steal, no losing.

Speaker 1 (30:34):
My biggest weakness is my sensitivity. I'm too sensitive with
a person. But I would change that. I would say
my biggest weakest is my pigeons. I would say that
that is true. I want to change my answer now,
all right, only Riches on the board as we moved
around three. Why is boxing called the sweet science?

Speaker 2 (30:53):
Ay?

Speaker 1 (30:54):
A science teacher in Great Britain wrote a book about
the sport. Be a Great British author to the conclusion
that fighting is a natural born instinct or s A
teacher in Liverpool wrote a famous essay about boxing being
in our DNA A B C.

Speaker 2 (31:13):
Chad trying to get on the board a sweet a yeah, no, Rich, Rich,
I wrapped up with b in the win.

Speaker 4 (31:25):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (31:26):
By the way, this goes back to the early conversation
about allowing kids to watch combat. What's the big deal
if it's already in our like it's our natural born instinct.
A British author came to the confusion that fighting is
a natural born instinct, so you're gonna keep kids away
from their natural.

Speaker 2 (31:41):
Born I was Pierce Egan in eighteen thirteen. He wrote
that boxing is a sweet science of bruising.

Speaker 1 (31:48):
The three science, and we thought some good boxing this weekend.
Tyson Fury is going to be back after my prediction
he would be backward and think yeah true Tyson Fashion.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
We appreciate you listening there in South Dakota.

Speaker 1 (31:59):
Thanks bug, Thank thank you guy. Anybody you know I
got to go back to training, guys, I know you
act like I got nothing else to do. I'm very
busy with conference and Jake Paul and thank you Foxports Radio.
By the way, love you Cavino, love you, Mike. Yeah, bye, guys,
by d stay off the booty and week by Mike
Bye guys.

Speaker 2 (32:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (32:19):
By the way, Uh you know Danny, I know, you
look at the same dumb he's looking at he's looking
ripped rich, the same dumb things You and I both
probably come across every day when you're looking at, you know,
prepping for the show. Always like on this day and
there's like fun sports facts, like on this day it
was uh so and so it's first home run or
last game. I saw a fact today, then I'm curious

(32:40):
if you could just guess the answer has nothing to
do with sports. On this day in eighteen seventy three,
so we're talking one hundred and fifty one years ago,
one hundred and fifty years ago. On this day, the
patent was granted for blue jeans denim jeans. Who do
you think got the pet Terrence Howard, he has ninety

(33:02):
seven pat Stop, it's got to be Levi Strauss, Levi Strauss,
Your Levi's your Levies, So yeah, you're Levi Levi Strauss.
So essentially blue jeans celebrate their birthday today. So right,
he got there.

Speaker 2 (33:14):
So everyone that little pocket for I'm wearing some all
these all these years later, he has an NFL stadium.
Is it true they patented that little pocket for chapstick?

Speaker 1 (33:23):
Oh?

Speaker 6 (33:23):
Hey, guess what I got in there. I love that
little pocket it was. There's a real reason for that pocket.
I thought I was going to say, cocaine, no chack,
like a little pocket knife, chapstick whatever it might be.

Speaker 2 (33:34):
Cocaine knife, Yeah, I don't know. Pocket knife.

Speaker 1 (33:36):
Yeah, look at that. So hey, enjoy your rest of
your action pack. Monday, let's go to deep update a
safe to keep your pocket watch safe. Okay, that's what
it was originally, perfect size for it. Yeah, okay, we
got that.

Speaker 3 (33:51):
Interesting. You learned something every single day here at giveto
at Rich. You're also going to learn that Christops for
Zingis is not going to be available for the Celtics tomorrow.
Already been rule out a game one of the Eastern
Conference Finals against the Indiana Pacers because of that calf strain.
Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson a no show for the
team's OTAs as he seeks a contract extension. Different story

(34:11):
for Chiefs wide receiver ras Shei Raie. He's had a
problematic offseason to say the least, but was present for
the start of in person OTAs today. Rice was charged
this offseason for his role in an alleged street racing accident.
That injured multiple people. He's facing civil suits in that scenario.
Plus he's also considered a suspect and an alleged assault.

Speaker 2 (34:31):
Of a man at a nightclub earlier this month in Dallas.

Speaker 3 (34:34):
As for Scotti, Scheffler's legal woes will prosecutors in Louisville,
Kentucky have postponed his arrangement until June third. Metz right
now trail the Guardians two nothing heading to the top
of the third in Cleveland.

Speaker 2 (34:46):
It was earlier today they.

Speaker 3 (34:47):
Removed Edwin Diaz from his closer's role. Will go closer
by committee for the foreseeable future. Padres beat the Brave
six ' five in game one of a doubleheader. They
trailed won nothing in that game two at the end
of one, but it was in game one that's ender
Bogart's had to leave with left shoulder inflammation. The Blue
Jays beat the White Sox today nine to three, and
there's a game seven on the ice tonight. Eilers and

(35:09):
Cannuck's nine Eastern winner gets the Dallas Stars in the
Western Finals. You guys, back to you, damn and by
the way, since your boy Diaz is slumping and he's
no longer the closer.

Speaker 1 (35:23):
He ge ask us he have to give back the song?
Does he have to give back the song? And does
that make Johann Doran Johann Doran of The Twins the
guy he might be a sorry timmy trumpets, put it away,
put your trumpet in your case and pack it up.
That's Sam.

Speaker 4 (35:37):
No.

Speaker 1 (35:37):
I just want to say one thing again, never try
I'm not trying to be controversial or political or get
people on a tizzy. But there is something interesting about
how Rashi Rice is doing all this stuff, hitting Ron
all this, but no one seems to be that mad
about it, but Harrison Bucker everyone's going after it. Really
is wild. What as a society we get upset about

(35:58):
and not upset about. You don't need to agree with
someone's beliefs, but to be really mad about it, but
not be mad about something which is really more severe.
It's like, what's more important? Words or actions?

Speaker 2 (36:10):
Right?

Speaker 1 (36:11):
It's ridiculous, dude, it really is. It's like you could
be that mad at someone's words that you're like, get
him out of here words, but meanwhile it's like someone
it was an a dangerous hit and run. It's like
get him out the get him in OTAs quickly. We
need it a wide receiver. Right again, Livenatirack dot com Studio.
There's a crazy story about Tyreek Hill. You could tie

(36:31):
that into uh what you just said, to be honest, exactly, Well,
Gyreek kills in the news and you know we just
got to tell you the story. Yeah, we'll get to
that next right here. Fox Sports Radio cn R. All right,
welcome back Covino and Rich Livematirack dot com Studio. Shout

(36:51):
out to Elliott, Becky Reese, Brian Alberts, a lot of
feedback on social media, SPT Legend Brittany, thank you at
Covino and Rich and join us live again Friday, Tempe, Arizona.
This is your invite, buddy, Graduate Hotels, Tempe. And by
the way, happy birthday Bust the Rhymes. Any relation until

(37:12):
the end? Yeah, yeah, that's what I thought. It's a sister.
By the way, I remember clear as day watching Bust
the Rhymes shine like a true star when he performed
with a tribe called Quest Scenario on Oursenio Hall. And
he became a huge star after that because he was
in leaders of the New School and he was just

(37:33):
part of that click and you saw him like, Wow,
that dude's a star. That's bust the rhymes and he
became the guy. And also a happy birthday to arguably
one of the better looking seventy eight year olds on
planet Earth, Oh Share, who still looks damn good seventy
eight years old. So you're saying you would feel old.
Yet she's dating younger men. Oh dates younger men, She says,

(37:56):
old dated younger man like fifty years ago. That is
did she stays the only day younger men because they're
the only ones that are like still alive. Yeah, when
her age is dead, she said.

Speaker 2 (38:06):
Again.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
We're live from the tyrack dot com studios and a
quick reminder tomorrow more chances to win prizes if you
can't make it to Tempe Arizona because a lot of
prizes there. Shack Diesel, Whack Diesel, NBA trivia tomorrow on
the show. But real quick, right quick rich getting late early,
we said, we talk about Tyreek Hill. First. I want
to say congratulations, right, congratulations is in order because he

(38:32):
and his wife is their name Keita Keida mccar. They're
expecting their first child together. So congratulations to Tyreek Hill. First,
it's his first child. With her and I wasn't done
reading the report. Tyreek has had four kids this year,

(38:53):
already has ten children at thirty years old. Let me
get you a calculator, Nick Cannon Territory right who. By
the way, Nick Cannon was hilarious at the Mark Twain
Awards for Kevin Hart. He was the funniest I've ever
seen that. Great, But that's I don't want to see irresponsible,
but I will. I mean, he's got the fund money.

(39:13):
Why would you say you don't want to say irresponsible?
That is the definition because I'll tell you of irresponsible
because the guy does the guy not a I didn't
know what I could say on Foxwood. Does the guy
just not know that? He does need to stay where
he's at. He knows there's methods, right, Like you know
how that's like that's tricky almost like that's almost like
if you were to say, I'll give you a billion

(39:34):
dollars if you get four people pregnant. That's not easy.

Speaker 2 (39:37):
By the way, that's two more children in one year
than the Panthers had victories in the NFL.

Speaker 1 (39:43):
Yeah, that's that's lot. He and his wife were expecting
their first child. However, Tyreek has had four kids this year,
already has ten children at thirty. That's wild, dude. That
is why I'm start naming you kids arbitrary things like
you know how like Danny when you and your wife
had baby ka, you probably have like one or two

(40:05):
names you were choosing between my kid number, telling you
I don't know John, I don't know, but you know
is he's probably not done. You know, he's only thirty.
I'm still in the game. This guy's thirty years old,
you know, dissecting me, my friend. He need to be
like something I'd changed to numbers instead of names. Eight,
get your ass over here.

Speaker 4 (40:26):
Eight.

Speaker 2 (40:27):
That's why.

Speaker 1 (40:27):
Yeah, he's gonna have to start numbering oh seven?

Speaker 2 (40:30):
Eight? Did you eat?

Speaker 1 (40:31):
Didn't? Doesn't George Foreman have like a bunch of George's Yeah?
To me, it's just uh again, just because you have
money doesn't mean like again, not not to not to
get into but early we were saying how people are
really hard on Harrison buck Peer for having an opinion.
People are man at arms about this. People hate Harrison

(40:52):
Bucker because he has some old school, maybe some outdated ideas.
Some people agree, some people don't. It doesn't it shouldn't
bother you. That's his ideas and the sinking to a
specific audience too. I mean, look, and it doesn't mean
you need to agree with it. Yeah you can take
Harrison Buckers out as well, but you can't. Can you
in one breath say Butckers out of line and then

(41:14):
be like, oh, how cool? The Tyreek Kale ten kids
with all different women, and and so this he comes
up with kid right, his fifth kid of the year.

Speaker 2 (41:23):
I think Tyreek is speaking to a specific audience as
well to me. But I'm just saying it's an audience
that should be wearing condoms. Yeah, what did Rocky say?
And Rocky too?

Speaker 1 (41:34):
You know I don't wear them? Hey, can I interest
you in condominiums? Yo? To be honest, I don't wear them.

Speaker 2 (41:39):
To be honest, I don't you.

Speaker 1 (41:41):
I don't know man. So okay, congratulations is in order.
But wow, dude, slow down or figure it out or something,
Dude that has a lot of blown coverage Tyreek Hill, Hey,
that's the story. Hey, So again, thank you guys again
for hanging out with us in Oregon. We'll see you
in Tempe, Arizona this Friday. Let's have a great week

(42:02):
