action packed, cause we have prizes to give away. We're
playing Chapotle Worker, WNBA player, we got weekend hobnobbing, what
you need to watch this week, and we got to
talk some NFL yeah and more. But first we rock out.

(01:07):
If you want to play along again, play our game.
It's our favorite game. Eight seven seven ninety nine on
Fox Call Now for a swiggy our steainless steel and
water bottle giveaway again eight seven to seven ninety nine,
l Fox and we're at Covino and Rich. Now we're
gonna talk not necessarily NFL NFL yet, but NFL glow

(01:27):
ups that And this is a story I didn't want
to talk about the NFC according to Vegas because uh,
there's a lot of bets happening on who's gonna win
the NFC, who's gonna represent in the Super Bowl? And
I want to see if you find some discrepancy. So
we'll talk a little NFC, some NFL glow ups. But

(01:48):
I did figure out how a pitcher could get a
win and a loss in the same game. Because this
story about Danny Jansen, where he started the game with
the Blue Jays, now he's gonna wrap up the game
with the Red Sox. First guy ever to play on
both teams and catch his own at bat and catch
his own at bat in the game. He's catching his
own at bat. No, he was at bat when the

(02:09):
game was canceled. It takes Joel Youngblood to a whole
new level, which he's the answer to the trivia question,
has a guy ever got a hit for two teams
in one day, and it was Joel Youngblood who got
traded from the Mets, got a hit in the day game,
went to go join his new team, the Expos at night,
and got a hit, which is baller nowadays. A guy
gets traded, I feel like he chills for a couple

(02:31):
days to get acclimated. Dean Sanders in that convo too,
with baseball and football, all right, yeah, just answers to
trivia questions. So again Danny Jansen, but Rich said, is
there any way, okay, is there any way where a
pitcher could be the winner and loser in the same game?
Do you know what our buddy Sean who listens on

(02:51):
the Fox Sports radio app What's Up, Sean Weller? He said,
I look forward to trying to follow along to your
mental gymnastics. Here, okay, here we go. So let's say,
let's pick a name, because if we just say if
the pitcher, let's just pick a name so we could
follow the story a little clearer. Justin Verlander, Justin Verlander? Perfect?

(03:12):
If Justin Verlander starts the game for let's throw back
for the Astros, okay, and they're playing the Mets. If
Verlander in the sixth inning has the lead but leaves
the bases juiced, and the game is called we gotta

(03:38):
continue it, pick it up later. Verlander is thou in
the position to win, but those runners on base could
have him on the hook for a loss because let's
just say, let's say the responsible ducks in the pond.
Let's say the Astros are winning four to two. The
guy that takes over for Verlander gives up a grand salami.

(04:02):
Now they're losing six to four, so Verlander's on the
hook for the l if. The Mets then put their
acquired Justin Verlander into pitch in the bottom of the six,
which would be unconventional, but I'm just saying there was
a way he didn't be on the winning side of
the hook as a relief pitcher that took over with
the lead, So he therefore could be He could the

(04:24):
winner and loser of the same game.

Speaker 2 (04:27):
Could he also get the save and the hole?

Speaker 1 (04:30):
No, no, no, no, that's that's impossible. But it is interesting.
You know a guy could get a loss and a save. Yeah, yes,
that is possible. It all takes a rare set of circumstances,
but that's exactly what happened here with this Danny Jansen story.
It's just a rare set of circumstances. The fact too,

(04:52):
that he was at bat and now catching is on
at bat. It's very odd, very cool, very random, very
intense some day. Yes so to me or good word.
So I do want to talk about two NFL coaches
because it has me thinking of another silly thought. There's

(05:14):
two coaches in the NFL. You could argue one's playoff
bound and one is like the team that people are saying,
maybe they maybe they're ready already, maybe they're ready, ready,
already already, ready, already, ready already. Man, it's a lot
of words. I mean then I Verlander replaced him in
the fifth I don't know it's ready for all those words.

(05:37):
Two NFL coaches God, as the kids call the glow up. Yeah,
we joked about how if you watch Hard Knocks, Matt
Eberflus went from we joked, but we're dead serious about it.
He went from like, you know, like you're from tired
looking older white guy to like, oh he's a handsome

(05:58):
older white guy.

Speaker 3 (05:59):
Now.

Speaker 1 (05:59):
Yeah, he went from like your nerdy uncle to like, uh.
He went from tired to like Wow, he's handsome. He
went from tired old guy to like Zaddi. Yeah, no, seriously,
Danny J. You got to back us up. IOA Sam,
have you seen this or no? If you see it
before and after of ebus, you're gonna be like, wow,
that's really impressive from like Don villain to kind of

(06:20):
like CEO. Look. Yeah, because like he wanted the Travis
Kelsey cut. He went and got a new haircut and
he grew his beard out, but he got a look
to him where he had no look at.

Speaker 4 (06:30):
All before the beard. Compliments, Yeah, he's got a whole look.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
Unrecognizable when he was an assistant on the sideline and
now if you put the two split screen, you not
noticed the same two different dudes.

Speaker 1 (06:41):
His wife has to watch out for the eber fluozies.
Are you on?

Speaker 5 (06:48):
Are you joining?

Speaker 4 (06:49):
Or no?

Speaker 1 (06:49):
Oh that's funny, but it definitely fits the vibe of
the team too.

Speaker 5 (06:53):
Right.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
We talked about that, like you don't want to be
coached by some tired looking guy.

Speaker 4 (06:59):
So he looks like he's he's more tired without the
beard he did.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
Yeah, he looked tired and like like older, like he
didn't want to be there. And now he's he's got
a tan, he's got a beard, he seems confident. Team
feeds off of that. And Mike McDaniel we already joked,
you know, everyone loves the wardrobe, the short pants and
his whole vibe. But now this season, Mike McDaniel, he
came back looked like a drug kingpin. I know, assistant

(07:26):
manager to drug kingpin. Yeah, he's a drug kingpin. He
went in Florida, would make sense. So he is like,
he's so Miami now he does.

Speaker 4 (07:34):
He's got that cool sort of it's like ocean hair,
like it's just he's been in the ocean and it's
kind of curly.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
And definitely like that. This is Miami's sort of vibe
about him going on now where he's not the same
like nerdy looking guy.

Speaker 2 (07:48):
He's got a scarface look to him. Now.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
Yeah, he's like, you think your big time, I'll show
you big time. That's baby powder. Yeah he back. So
Mike McDaniel and Matt Eberflus two glow ups. And you
might say, who cares rich? I do, And I'll tell
you why. I want to ask the question in your life, teacher, coworker, sibling,

(08:13):
family member, have you gone a little amount of time
without seeing someone and then they show up. And what
I love the story to you. Rich tells a story
and I'm not going to steal it, but I'm just
saying I love Rich's story of your childhood friend's dad.
I love I told you here. No, you've never told

(08:33):
it here. I just know you're sorry. My brother had
a best friend growing up, Danny. Danny's dad would always
walk the dog around the neighborhood and he was a
very recognizable guy because he would walk this big Saint
Bernard like do you remember the movie Beethoven, Like a
big ass dog around the neighborhood and everyone knew this guy.
I'll call him Randy. Hey, Hey, Randy, always walking his

(08:56):
dog ground, friendly neighborhood guy. Hey, how you doing, Richie,
good guy in the kim munity. Hey, Randy, Oh, the
dog is huge. I feel like the dog had a
barrel around its neck, like a huge ass dog. If
it was a cartoon, it definitely would have a barrel.
And this guy was your typical eighties dad with the
George Costanza Baldo look, with the hair on the sides

(09:17):
and any of a mustache Baldo. He looks like a
van Gundy like mustache balding. One day, I get a
knock on the door because my brother has his little
buddy playing Nintendo or say together in the basement. Hey, Jimmy,
tell Danny his dad's here to pick him up. I

(09:38):
go to the door to be like, oh, Danny's dad's here.
This guy has a Johnny Swayede pompa do like before
the days Google Johnny Swayde before the days of where
do people go in down to get hair transplants? Oh,
Turk Turkey before like you know, men went to Turkey
and there were all these products and you know he

(10:00):
went to visit cy Spurling Like I don't know what
does This guy.

Speaker 2 (10:03):
Was one of the first members.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
Yeah, and he looked fantastic. To make this story really
like hit home, Johnny Swade was a character played by
Brad Pitt. Looking up was like no, no, nobody really
knows the role. But you said his hair was like
never ending competition. I couldn't he went from It's like
you ever see Wade Boggs before and after Wade Box

(10:25):
and uh Greg Olsen. I believe wasn't he one of
them too? There's been a couple athletes and listen, no
shame in that game. I'll tell you what I if
I felt like I was, you know, losing too much,
I'd probably do it. You saw the guy at the
UH soccer coverage. Wasn't it or wasn't it Donovan Landon
who had like Jason Witten to I just said his name,

(10:46):
how it would be in a phone book? Uh, Jason
Witten or no, I said it was. I think it
was Olsen, right, I think it was a Witten. Was Witt?
I think you were confusing him. I was confusing cool
tight ends.

Speaker 4 (10:56):
It was.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
It was Witten, cool white, cool white tight ends. So one.
But it's noticeable and it's not a bad thing. Like
we're bringing a lot of normalcy to this right, you're
seeing dudes. Rich made the reference. It's true. It's like
a one stop shop. It's an all inclusive. So many
young dudes are going to Turkey for a fully paid
getaway and they come back with brand new hair. And

(11:19):
he looked great. No shame in the game. Have you
seen Jerry Seinfeld lately? Say he did? See Seinfeld looks.

Speaker 4 (11:25):
Yeah, like fifteen years ago he was pretty much bald. Yeah,
Jerry Seinfeld balding.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
Jerry Seinfeld looks thirty years Steve Carell, Steve Carrell, have
you ever see the early office days? And now he's
like now he's like handsome old guy. No shame in
that game. You know, if you're a bar if you
follow barstool portant, he talks about it. He looks fantastic.
We're not saying eber Flus had this done. We're just
saying that whatever he did, and it could be as

(11:51):
simple as he lost some weight, got a different haircut
and a beard. He looks completely there. He looks healthier. Uh,
maybe he's getting more son. I don't know what it is.
It's year one versus year two, and he was under
a lot of stress. It might be that too. You're
absolutely right, You're absolutely right now. But who got the
bigger glow up? And you're seeing a lot about it
this week? Especially? Is it Eberflus? McDaniel let us know,

(12:15):
I did? I have more stories that I'm thinking of. Well,
I mean we're sitting here with Spot. If you guys
knew Spot before Fox Sports Radio, Spot, it's like a
totally different guy. Yeah. Spot was like clean shaven with
like poofy. Ben savage hair, and he was overweight. Now
he's like a Jim Rat with a beard. He thinks
he and he chops wood on Instagram. Now he's a
Kelsey brother. Now he thinks he's the third Kelsey right as.

Speaker 2 (12:39):
A Yogi guru.

Speaker 1 (12:40):
Yeah. I mean it's wild to see because along with
that glow up comes a different personality and so much hate.
But it can't handle it. I think Iberflus was probably
is probably bringing a cooler vibe about him because even
his wife said on on Hard Knocks, she's like, he's
he thinks he's cool. Now he is now, Like she

(13:01):
agreed that it was a different vibe about him. I
hope that the team feeds off of it. We'll see.
So your thoughts. They were shame in the glow up game.
There was an eight seven seven ninety dous on Fox
or better yet tweet us hit us up on social
media at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio. I
know we're gonna play a game, but twenty second story
because I have to have throw this one in here. Danny,

(13:21):
we worked with a guy. Now we didn't work when
this happened, but we were told that you know that
guy used to be bald. We're like, what they go
all of a sudden, he showed up to work every
day for a couple months wearing like a Samuel L.
Jackson goop aline like a kangle hat every day for months,

(13:41):
and everyone's like, is they wearing this hat every day?
And they they've pictured him as a bald guy and
they're like, oh, he's wearing a hat every day. After
those few months, when I guess everything settled in, he
came to work one day and he's like like a Zoolander,
took the hat off of he had like Zoolander hair,
like he just came out of the coal mines.

Speaker 2 (14:01):
He went from Charles Barkley to bone thugs and harmony. Yeah, yeah, true, Sorry,
everybody talked about it too.

Speaker 1 (14:06):
Okay, So enjoying the cob Maybe maybe Mike McDaniel and
Matt Eberflus's gloves will help you, Dolphins fans and Bears fans.

(26:04):
brand new episode of Over Promised, it's available now on
our Fox Sports Radio YouTube page. Fox Sports Radio YouTube.
Overpromised is our bonus podcast show. And we talked about
like weird whack athlete endorsements because Angel Reese is now
with Reese's, so we thought of some other funny ones.

(26:25):
We did our top five weirdest athlete endorsements, and some
literal League World Series drama. It's worth the watch. It's
a lot of fun. It's quick. It's our over promised
podcast on Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page. You could watch
what we Do. I'm looking at this list of odds
that Danny g hit us up with, and I want

(26:46):
to know if you think one of these things is
not like the other. Do you think they all fit
in the same conversation? What do you think Sometimes you're
really just betting for the value, Like the same reason
why it's tough to bet on Canelo Alvarez, because he's
always so heavily favored that you're you're wagering a lot

(27:06):
to win a little. So not many times do I
find myself betting on Canelo. Burloga got well like sixteen
straight knockouts. That Puerto Rican versus Mexican rivalry is strong. However,
Canlo is gonna whop his ass. You're right be boulder Asai,
We're gonna be there. Who's he fighting again, Berloga, Burloga, Yeah,

(27:29):
say he has no chance? Well, I want you know,
I'm gonna give you odds on that real quick, just
to just to prove the point, all right, Saoul Canelo Alvarez,
Oh cheese, You know what? What are we even looking
at this? For Canello bet eleven hundred to win one hundred.
That's why people want him to fight the Mexican Monster

(27:51):
or Crawford. It's gonna take a the excellency to make
it happen. But I don't think that's gonna happen. This
is gonna be a tough fight though for long as
no chump, but Canals that favored. So when you look
at the NFC, m hm, you got to also decide,

(28:12):
all right, what odds? What odds are you looking at
that would make you say, oh, maybe I'll bet fifty
one hundred bucks on that because the payoff would be
nice versus I really think that's a pretty good bet. Now,
according to Las Vegas, the most bets coming in for

(28:33):
a team to win the NFC the Detroit Lions, and
at most casinos it's around plus five hundred. So you
bet one hundred, you win five hundred. That's overwhelmingly the
Vegas pick for NFC. Do you find that to be
peculiar considering everyone on the planet Earth is like so
high on everyone else in their division as well, three

(28:57):
teams in the top five of the NFC bets. Did
you notice dannyg are af NFC North teams?

Speaker 2 (29:03):
Yeah, I did notice that.

Speaker 1 (29:05):
Lions at twenty nine percent. Okay, and again that's plus
five hundred plus five fifty. And then you say, I
reach as a gambling guy, are the Lions the choice
here because it was the most enticing bet? Well, that's
what I'm trying to decipher. It's they're the third. They're
the third highest favorite team in the NFC to go

(29:27):
to the Super Bowl. The forty nine Ers are the
are the most favorite to go, right, They're the fourth
highest bet in Vegas right now, eleven percent of gamblers
and wagers are betting on the Niners to go. That's
because it's plus three hundred. And you could say, well,
those are those odds. Aren't that great? Bet one hundred
to win three hundred Philadelphia. I guess people are thinking

(29:49):
with a revamped offense, some new coaching confidence. Sakwon Barkley,
I mean, and you said it. We were talking about
who's the fifth best quarterback in the league. When I
said hurts, it's funny. He said, well, you would have
said that after last year, I would say that I
would have said that there were last year. You know
then I like the most turnovers last day. And who's

(30:10):
to say he doesn't have a comeback. Just because he
had a bad season doesn't mean he's he's all of
a sudden done the therapy. An enticing bet. The third
most bet NFC team to make it to the Super
Bowl in Vegas the Green Bay Packers, And I think
that is definitely the most enticing bet to make because

(30:33):
they are plus eight hundred plus seven fifty in some places.
But if you con bet one hundred to an eight
hundred Danny, I think the Packers. If Jordan Love is
what people think he might be, that's the bet.

Speaker 2 (30:47):
Colin Cowherd, who were filling in for next Tuesday and Wednesday,
one of his five bold NFL predictions Jordan Love NFL MVP.

Speaker 1 (30:55):
So of that. So if you got Jordan Loves stepping
up the way everyone thinks he could and might, those
are the odds. Wh it's just kind of fun to
throw some coin at that. I think plus eight hundred
plus eight hundred, Isaac. I mean, if you're a gambling fool,
that's a fun one, Isaac. You bought into the Green
Bay Packers, you bought into the Lions and the Bears

(31:16):
in that whole NFC North because I look at it
and say, it's the forty nine ers if they stay healthy,
and then probably some someone from that North, maybe the
NFC East is if a the Cowboys are saying, what
are the Cowboys are nowhere here nowhere? Okay, according to
Las Vegas the Dallas Cowboys same odds as the Packers

(31:37):
plus eight hundred, but nowhere on the nowhere on the
list of what people are wagering their money on. So
this the public sentiment is, yeah, it's not really fun
to bet on the Cowboys. That's just throwing your money away.
And some would say green Bay the odds are are
bet one hundred win eight hundred. Now Here's here's the

(31:58):
one that I want to bring up before we went
to Isaac Front update. Fifth on the list, behind the Lions, Eagles, Packers,
and Niners, which are, by the way, four teams that arguably,
like you'd be shocked if they weren't, you know, in
the mix. Maybe Philly, you don't know what's gonna happen there,
but arguably Lions, Eagles, Packers, Niners the Bears. Yeah, I

(32:21):
think it's because it's plus sixteen hundred and people think
there's a lot of questions, it's a lot of hyper around. Yeah,
but what if it's a lot of people are thinking,
what if it's a c J. Stroud But even more
type of scenario, like the weapons are there. Everything in
the preseason indicates that we're buying into this glow up
Caleb Williams and maybe it's an Eberfool's.

Speaker 2 (32:39):
Blow glossy well, and if you watch, if you're watching
hard knock Chicago Bears right now, you're realizing what a
solid defense they have.

Speaker 1 (32:47):
Yeah, So people buying into that, it's got to be
part of it. People getting more familiar with this team.
That's that's really interesting. When you got a hyper aunt.

Speaker 2 (32:56):
And Williams has weapons, Oh, dunsay DJ Moore. I mean
they have some great white outs there, They have some
good weapons.

Speaker 1 (33:05):
I think this season, like every NFL season, it's so
hard to tell, but I think that's also listen if
you just want to throw some fun little, you know,
season long bets up there. I think green Bay at
plus eight hundred and the Bears plus sixteen hundred are
both sort of fun ones, fun ones to make. I'm
a Niners fan, as you know. I would never bet
the Niners plus three hundred. The value is terrible.

Speaker 2 (33:25):
Oh, don't forget Keenan Allen all of a sudden.

Speaker 1 (33:28):
Right and Danny another team that was not on this list.
I saw speaking of Colin, who were filling in for
a couple of days next week on the Herd. He's
big on the Rams competing with the Niners out west.
They still have Sean McVay, Matthew Stafford, Cooper cup Hook
and the cop. That team's no slouch. They're right there
with the Bears around plus sixteen hundred plus fifteen hundred.
So I don't think the Rams are a terrible bet either.

(33:50):
You're a gambling guy where you're really gonna put your
money out. I don't like doing these type of bets,
but if I were to, if you were, I think
I think Green Bay because if you more value back
for your bunk, I think it's it's not you look
at those Bears in the Rams one and they feel like,
oh what a value? But realistic probably not you could see.
I mean, dude, the Packers sort of blew a game

(34:12):
against the Yeah, and they played the Lions tight in division.
So if Jordan Love progresses and now they.

Speaker 2 (34:20):
Have your boy Josh Jacobs, right, yeah, if Jacobs can
stay healthy, he's one of the top five backs in
the league.

Speaker 1 (34:26):
So I think this should be part of like a
realistic nature that kicks in for me. Though. It's like
you throw one hundred to win eight hundred for Green Bay, right,
that's the fun risk you're taking. Yeah, you really think
they're gonna beat the forty nine ers. I certainly hope
not as a Niner Sampart, but I really don't. I
don't think so like realistic realistically, you're like forty nine
ers are still the team, so you just like you

(34:51):
still do one hundred dollars away. So even though you're
you're getting you know, eight hundred, what do you think
the worst odds are? Think about it. We'll go to
Isaac for an update. We'll come back Isaac lowingcron what's
up about it? Isaac Fellows.

Speaker 5 (35:02):
Today at the NFL's Park Avenue headquarters, Commissioner Roger Goodell proclaimed.

Speaker 1 (35:10):
Just pension, just pension, just pension, gets a suspension. That's right.

Speaker 5 (35:18):
The NFL suspending Arizona Cardinals receivers Zay Jones for the
first five games of the regular season for violating the
Personal Conduct Policy. Jones was arrested last November on a
misdemeanor domestic battery charge. That charge was later dropped. The
NFL also suspended Los Angeles Rams starting left tackle Alaric
Jackson the first two games of the regular season for

(35:40):
violating the Personal Conduct Policy. Not clear how Jackson violated
the policy. The NFL even suspended free agent cornerback j C.
Jackson one game for violating the Personal Conduct Policy, but fellas. Ironically,
most of the social media reaction to the suspensions does
not have to do with any of those players.

Speaker 1 (36:01):
At Phony MC ring.

Speaker 5 (36:03):
Ring commenting quote and Rashie Rice at Mangy Carl ninety
nine commenting meanwhile, Rashi Rice is just chilling. And at
CPT cialis commented, Rashi Rice going to get suspended? Oh
wait he plays for KC NVM unquote. Rice of course

(36:28):
facing eight felony charges for his involvement in a car
crash while racing on a Dallas area freeway in March,
and that is what is trending.

Speaker 1 (36:36):
Back to you guys, Thank you I again real quick
I know we gotta break, but the the three worst teams,
you know, I'll save it. I'll tell you in a second.
I want you to think in the NFC, I think
it's I think one of them is obvious. But who
do you think has the worst odds? That I mean,
if you want to pay for your kids tuition in
one one swoop, hope for one of these. So we'll
get to that next and some weekend hob nobn what

(36:56):
