what's a bigger loss to their sport Caitlin Clark on

(01:46):
take your feedback at Covino and Rich Hot hot questions. Yeah,
real question, Danny G. What's up? Man?

Speaker 3 (01:52):
Back to Brady's pants really quick?

Speaker 1 (01:54):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 4 (01:54):
One of your Patreon members, d dub three two six
just called me. She didn't want to go on the air,
but she says she has two official game worn jerseys
and she said they both stink.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
Really yeah, you know, so they actually do not not
only what would the word be like, uh like refresh
the like they can't. We take the whole point that
way you go, You said this.

Speaker 5 (02:17):
Rich like you go to the gym once and your smell.
But imagine you go to the gym and then you
throw your shorts in a gym bag and leave them
in your trunk for a while. That's basically what you're
doing because it's going to be framed.

Speaker 1 (02:28):
You mean the stank of every high school locker.

Speaker 5 (02:30):
Room not era, it's probably framed, so it's trapped inside
a frame, stinking.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
So not only do you have game worn pants from
Tom Brady, you know what Tom Brady's ass smells like? Right?
You know what you should do? Get the frames, scratch
and sniff. Yeah, you cut a little hole in the front.
You go smell like my guy, like in the toy isisle,
whether it's like you usually little hole, I feel the
toy people walk up the bunch largent people for that though,

(03:01):
Willie Wonko or if you just join us. Brady's final
game pants sold for eighty nine thousand dollars, and today
Michael Jordan's Game War Nike Jordan's Jordan one's from eighty five.
The ogs hit the auction block today and I think

(03:22):
they'll go for far more than Brady's. I bet you
last game pants those smell less because yeah, it's like
a couple of game shoes.

Speaker 5 (03:29):
I feel like they probably he probably wore them once again,
one pair per game.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
Yeah, the NBA players, does anyone know the answer to
that fresh pair every game? And do they break them
in because you don't want to have blisters? Like I mean,
do you rock in the same I.

Speaker 4 (03:40):
Feel like they break them in and wear them a
couple of times. We'll check on that.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
They go through them, though they do. I remember some
NFL player I'll never remember who once told us on
a red carpet at an EA Madden or maxim or
ESPN party or something back in the day that you
can never wear a pair of Air Force ones more
than once. Yeah, because you need this to be so
fresh that there are one and done's. And I'm like, man,

(04:06):
I imagine being baller where every pair of sneakers you
wear one and done.

Speaker 5 (04:09):
Did we talk about where Lebron has his jersey laid
out in the locker room and if anybody steps like
near it, it has to be like relaid out again.

Speaker 3 (04:20):
Yeah, did we talk about that?

Speaker 1 (04:21):
Wow? So I imagine they have multiple sets.

Speaker 4 (04:23):
Of shoes, right, So this says players in the NBA
rarely use a basketball shoe for longer than seven to
ten days before replacing them with a new pair.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
Okay, it makes sense, and they give them out the
kids or whatever, So that's fine. Drone men's gear is
making news and we're like, who really wants that? What
I think they should do with those pants? Seriously? And
you see tops does this with a lot of game
ward merchandise. Chop it up, chop it up, chop it
up and throw it in a cart or something, because
what do you gonta do with those? And they really

(04:53):
are just grown man a grown man's used pants. Take
a sniff. So that's another story. Again, who wants that?
Somebody does?

Speaker 3 (05:03):
I wouldn't.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
And now we got it to Speaking of football, isn't
there a story from last year not to get I
will don't worry. I won't cross any lines here, But
didn't Jalen Hurts have an accident in his pants last year?
How much for those? It's gone of mass on the market.
Wasn't there a spot like that? Was a fot. There
was a brown spot. I got them in a trading
card we call last Year Week one, Last Year. Jalen hurts,

(05:27):
it has literally pooped his pants trying to throw a
fourth and scramble. Enough, moving on, moving on, It's just weird.

Speaker 3 (05:37):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
I wouldn't want that again. Mike who runs his place,
he said, Mike, who you know? It's like stunt called
Steve Bouston. Mike who runs this on Twitter? He says, Look,
unless it's mounted, it has to be mounted like a
game worn jersey. Fair enough game worn pants? I mean,
no what not as cool? But yeah, they gotta be framed, cool, mounted,

(06:00):
no wrinkles. You gotta be looking for it. Gotta look nice.
Is there anything cool from the game got? Well, it's
got to be autographed too, other other than a pair
of pants that aren't autographed, other than game worn convey no.
I meaning, I have a buddy who in his man
cave has hanging in your closet that's just weak. He
has a bass from Yankee Stadium. You down for the
people that are like I spent a couple Honda I

(06:20):
bought a bass. How low can you go? Cool? Accent piece?
It's kind of cool. You see, people also have a
stadium seats, Yes, seats from a stadium that has been
broken down. Like I have a buddy who has two
orange seats from the old Chase Stadium. Kind of cool
in his basement.

Speaker 6 (06:35):
Cool.

Speaker 1 (06:35):
I like that for a man care Yeah, it's cool.
Like yeah, so let me make the rule final, Rich,
Let's make it final. If you're gonna get Jordan's shoes
or Brady's pants or whatever, they've got to be displayed properly.
And I think if you've got something stupid like pants,
you need a haul for people to sniff. No, you need,

(06:56):
you need, you need it autographed. It has to be autographed.
They so for eighty nine thousand dollars. I bet you
Jordan's nineteen eighty five Jordan one's that goes for a
few million dollars. That's my guess it could. I mean
that to me, Ken Golden's gonna buy it. You're gonna see
sold that auction. You've seen jerseys from Messi or Ronaldo

(07:18):
go for half a million dollars. If you don't think
Jordan's ones from eighty five, it's a forty year old
show almost. I mean, MG, is the legendary game changing
shoe that we all saw. I saw this kid in
fit I was in grade school and I was like
what And I meant this in.

Speaker 3 (07:34):
A good way.

Speaker 1 (07:35):
What are those? I meant it in a good like what?
And you know what? If you haven't seen the movie
Air and it's summer and there's a lot of nonsense
on television, never too late. I thought it was a
fantastic movie. And watch did you ever watch Air Spot?
I think you would enjoy it. I don't think you did.
It was Ben a Flack and Matt Damon and Jason Bateman.

(07:58):
The story of the Air Jordan game warn Nike Jordan Ones,
the Black, White and Red Ones from eighty five hit
the auction block based on the Brady story struggle with
memorabilia because col just got like yeah, because I say, like,
let's say I bought these pants, right yeah, and I
hung them up? Would you try them on?

Speaker 3 (08:17):
Serious?

Speaker 1 (08:17):
I would have to invite people over constantly to be like, oh,
those are Tom Brady's pants. Would you try them on? Swear?
Would you try them? Is the biggest if they were ever? No?
And we have to bring it up for do you
remember this? So Iowa Sam. When David Wells took the
mound in Babe Ruth's hat, you remember they made him
take it off. They made him take it off because

(08:37):
it was an official league uniform.

Speaker 3 (08:39):
Did he get did he draw? What's the word?

Speaker 7 (08:43):
I'm looking for inspiration from that episode of Seinfeld where
doesn't George wear Babe Ruth's jersey and gets like mustard
all over it?

Speaker 8 (08:49):
Oh?

Speaker 7 (08:49):
Yeah, because he's try to get fired by the Yankies
and the Yeah, he's everyone's impervious to his antics.

Speaker 1 (08:53):
Just not. Do you remember when you you bought out
at auction King Kong Bundy single it? Yeah? And you
are that? You are that ahole week I did? I listen?
I think game war and stuff is pretty cool. You
just got to have it like all memorabilia. Can you
know you pointed this out over the years. It just
needs to be framed or mounted the right way professionally
and that'll make it look cool. And listen. I would

(09:17):
imagine if you're spending eighty nine thousand dollars on Brady's pants,
you're getting that mount and you have a pretty sweet place, yeah,
and you have a pretty whole room to put it in.
You're not gonna spend ninety grand and a pair of
other man's pants. If you don't have money, I would
have a Tom Brady pants party. How much would you
pay for tom Brady's bugle Boys from eighty nine? I
would have people over to, like, look at Tom Brady's pants.

Speaker 7 (09:35):
How about this instead of a frame, put him on
like a mannequin football player, a football player mannequin, and
then they're like on display like running or something.

Speaker 1 (09:43):
You know, I got tom Brady's Cavalici's from Junior High.
How much you want to pay me for that? Sounds
like like a Tom Brady real doll. Are you coming
to the pants party? Yes? Yeah, you have dinklagees well
white pants there right, come to the pants space, pants
space past. Speaking of if you have any thoughts on this,
you know, and we're to play Tyson trivia, So stand
by eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox at Covino

(10:04):
and Rich if you want to chime in. Speaking of football,
we also got to talk about this Aaron Rodgers story. Yeah,
it's the biggest. Not you thought that Joey Chestnut story
was the biggest non story of the day. This Aaron
Rodgers story is the biggest non story I ever heard. Yeah,
Brett in Florida. What's up? Man? You're on Covino on
Rich Hey, what's up guys?

Speaker 2 (10:24):
Real quick? Just to touch on a couple of subjects here.

Speaker 8 (10:27):
I I don't know, man, I feel like you definitely
have to frame those pants because those things probably steak.

Speaker 9 (10:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (10:34):
Would you smelling? Yeah? Would you smell them? For real?
You know you would? Ah?

Speaker 2 (10:38):
Yeah, I probably would.

Speaker 1 (10:39):
Okay, you can't let anybody catch you doing that though. No,
that's something you can never really admit. But you would,
did you?

Speaker 8 (10:45):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (10:46):
Imagine like your wife walks in, She's like, what are
you doing? What if Danny g got? What if Tanny
g got like Jim Plunkett's jockstrap from ninety from nineteen
eighty three, smells like alpha male?

Speaker 3 (10:57):
Yeah, it smells like Cherry Jolly Rancher.

Speaker 1 (11:00):
Oh well, hey, thanks for the story, guy, Yeah, thank you, Brett.
Appreciate you. Cherry Jolly Ranchers a story? Yeah, what's the
I want to hear that story one day. You know what.
We're gonna play Tyson Trivia in a little bit, so
before we do that, we might as well touch on
this Aaron Rodgers thing. When you say non story coven

(11:20):
only kidd and I saw a headline that made it
seem like Aaron Rodgers was a missing person, Like, oh,
that was the headline. I a Aaron rodgersmamandatory practice, dude.
And then you read the first sentence and it's like
Robert Salad knew he would miss it. It was an
excused personal reason. So you're like, what's what the salacious
BS headline? Take a listen to Robert Salad talking about this.

Speaker 10 (11:44):
Aaron and I spoke before otia started. He's been very
good in communication. He's been here the entire time. It's inexcused.
But he had an event that was very important to him,
which he communicated. He came through yesterday, he had his physical,
he did the multimedia day or the media day and
all that stuff. But like I said, he had something
that was very important to him. And if it's important

(12:04):
to him, it's important to us.

Speaker 1 (12:05):
Enough set again, But the headline is Aaron Rodgers mia
at Jets mandatory camp. And guess what the truth is.
You don't need to think it's important or know what
it is. I love knowing all the details of these
rumors and salacious things. But The reality is if Aaron
Rodgers had some personal business. It could be his nephew's
Chuck E Cheese birthday party. It could be an ayahuasca retreat,

(12:27):
it could be now anything. I think I know it is,
And by the way, it's still considered an unexcused absence.
That's why I think maybe there's a little juice, but
barely any Look, it's the end of the school year.
I bet you one of his little nose picking nephews
or cousins or something like that is graduating from something
and he's like, you know what, this is important to
the family. Maybe he's making some good connections back with

(12:50):
his family, and he's showing face at an event, at
a family event. What else could it be this time
of year that takes precedence over that. You know what,
I always found funny you just said it unexcused absence.
Well that, yeah, that's what it was. But I'm saying, like,
so I think he's fine or something like that, But
what's in the NFL. Yes, but when people say that

(13:10):
at work or at school, what does that even mean?
It means nothing. My daughter right missed two days of
school two weeks ago because we went to Colorado to
visit family because my niece graduated high school. My daughter
not luckily not a kid that was sick a lot
this year, so she missed hardly any school. My wife

(13:31):
made up some bs excuse like, oh, emmy woke up
with a fever and the doctor said, hold her back
from school. I'm like, babe, why did you not just
tell the teacher, you know, we're out of town for
two days. My wife goes, well, then it would be unexcused,
and I'm like, and hey, we're with the family's traveling.
She's missing two days. She's in first grade. Relax. I

(13:52):
find it funny when people put significance on things like that,
like unexcued, too many appsences. They can hold that against you,
your your record and the record before. They can keep
you back if you're if you have too many unexcuse me,
that's not true. All is true. Day they kids morons
get The schools move kids to the next grade when

(14:12):
they are morons, just so that the school has a
good record. A smart kid that misses the day because
they just don't go to school is not going to
be a problem. You know what it reminds you of
You got me thinking now, well about time. We're an
hour and fifteen minutes into this. I saw I saw
an email we got Yes, we still get emails, DMS
people dm us a lot on Twitter and Instagram. At

(14:34):
Covin on Rich someone was saying that get this. They
said that the school alerted them that if their high
school senior son participated in senior skip day like senior
ditch day. I don't take it at yours whole day

(14:55):
to day, that he wouldn't be able to walk at
graduates or get his diploma. Okay, And I said, says
who waiting? The school, the faculty, the school system, of
the administration. That's when I make up a note. You know,
Ben was sick, signed the doctor Dre signed the doctor

(15:17):
doctor Phil, doctor Ruth, doctor Ruth. Are you like these
fake things that people believe, Like it's on your remember
when you have the power you're not walking, you never
get detention in like eighth grade, and like it's on
your record, and you're like, my record, what record? There
is no record? Stop falling for dumb crap. Everybody.

Speaker 4 (15:37):
That didn't scare me. But I remember my graduating class
in high school. They kept making announcements because the year
before they had problems with stink bombs, and so our
vice principal principle kept threatening all of us if I swear,
if there's.

Speaker 3 (15:50):
One stink bomb, I will end the ceremony.

Speaker 2 (15:57):
Round.

Speaker 1 (15:58):
Guess what it's a it's the empty thread of parents
saying I'll turn this car around. You're not turning the
car around because you're off from work. You took days off.
We're going to six flags. You're not stopping the ceremony.
Tell you one more stink bomb. You needn't play authority
when it comes to because they don't have no no
more respect. I respect police officers and the law, not

(16:19):
some dumb you know guy that's uh, you know, wobbled
around the mall and his uh, you know, rent the
cop or some guy telling you to do something that's
not the rules. How about you just abide by the
rules and you treat everybody respect. You know, I don't
understand why your kid is a good kid, so one
or two absences aren't gonna work against her. Some kid
on the fence, on the brink of being left back

(16:43):
that would work against him. It happened. You know what,
I find funny. Cavino just went to his daughter's middle
school graduation, which is beautiful. Congratulations. I know she won
a couple of awards. She's a good kid. You believe
I'm the father of a freshman high school kid? Now,
what in the hell? I can't believe you're the father
of somebody? Want an English? I know that's true because

(17:04):
you can't read too well.

Speaker 3 (17:05):
You are the five I am.

Speaker 1 (17:08):
Would you believe it his daughter's graduation, Danny G. They
did this the typical thing they do with graduations now,
like no one screaming, applause and and and if anything,
hold it till the end or get this. They told
them to do jazz hands. No, I think it was
happy hands. Yeah, get it right. Don't don't cheer for
your kid. Imagine tell that to some family that's all

(17:32):
fired up, Danny G. It sensitive to kids with families, Bro,
You talk to me about some of these East Coast
like Italian families or Puerto Rican families. Watch your families
out here, like you're telling me Uncle Hector's coming to
the graduation. He's not gonna make a fuss. You tell
me you can't tell Mexicans who could whistle not to whistle.

(17:53):
You think you're gonna tell a lot of families and
cultures that they can't celebrate a graduation from high school
of college that they have to do jazz hands, happy hands, Dude,
no one's doing dance moves. Snap, guys, we're not gonna're
gonna snap. Give me a break, or you know what,
we're gonna stop. We're gonna stop the ceremony. You're not
gonna stop the ceremony. Well, how did we get here?

(18:15):
Mandatory m I A Aaron Rodgers. He missed his practice
and they're saying it was unexcused, but he did run
it by the coach. Sally knew the whole thing the
whole time, so it's a nonstory. Reality is when you
say unexcused, it is nobody just telling you the story.
But if the head coach doesn't care, and you're the
star of the team, but it's considered an unexcused absence

(18:36):
and there is repercussions regardless of what your bonehead thinks,
that's why he's getting fined and that's why kids get
left behind? Who cares? Tyson Trivia more comed on wretch

for checking it out. Now We're going to dive into
Tyson trivia Dan Buyer's update, but I have to just
read this quote because I finally saw the official quote.

(22:02):
Real quick, Jen Rissotti, you're thinking, who's that the selection
committee for Team USA women's basketball? Her statement is just again,
just it's so ridiculous. Is it hot? Garbage? She wrote?
It wasn't the purview of our committee to decide how
many people would watch or how many people would root

(22:25):
for Team USA. We were just trying to create the
best team. They're not concerned about who's going to root
or who's gonna watch. What is going on?

Speaker 3 (22:33):
Didn't she just break a rookie record with her performance?

Speaker 1 (22:36):
Yeah? This woman, Jen Rissotti. I never hope for someone's
demise at their job, but I'd be shocked if she
has this job in a year from now. I hope
she finds another one. But clearly, what are we doing here?
What are we doing? One quick memorabilia call, will move on,
So cal Jack, you're on with CNR Tom Brady's pants?
You sniffing them or what? Oh?

Speaker 6 (22:58):
No way?

Speaker 8 (22:59):
But really, seriously, boys, what's going on?

Speaker 1 (23:01):
You know?

Speaker 8 (23:02):
David with David Wells with the Yankees hat that was
the ultimate fanboy move.

Speaker 1 (23:08):
I love really, it was awesome. I loved it. If
people don't know, Kevino mentioned that earlier Wells comes out
with a Babe Ruth official hat. He bought it an auction.

Speaker 8 (23:17):
Yeah, yeah, and I in two thousand and five, the
Dodgers remodeled their seats and I got two seats behind
home plate and they sit on my patio. Now that's as.

Speaker 2 (23:26):

Speaker 1 (28:41):
Enjoy Charlie. Let's go to d B by damn Byer,
Mike dam Bayer, what's up, buddy?

Speaker 11 (28:46):
Hey, guys, like a bunch of new surrounding the NBA Finals.
The Celtics announced today the Christaps Prezingis is dealing with
a lower left leg injury.

Speaker 3 (28:56):
There's a tendon tear in his.

Speaker 11 (28:58):
Lower left leg. Head coach Joe Mizzoula talking about it
earlier today.

Speaker 9 (29:03):
He's doing anything and everything he can to be ready
for the game tomorrow. It's a serious injury and at
the end of the day, our team and the medical
team is not going to put him in any bad situations,
so it's up.

Speaker 11 (29:14):
To the doctors. If it's up to Porzingis, Yeah, he
would play if you die.

Speaker 6 (29:18):
Out there to play, so I still apply.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
Yeah, I know.

Speaker 6 (29:21):
I'm living by those words.

Speaker 1 (29:23):
You literally will die on the cordio. I mean, I
hope not, but if it comes to that to win.

Speaker 11 (29:29):
I guess Porzingi is willing to give it all the
play in Game three. Hopefully that's not the case. Celtics
up too well in the series. They'll tip it off
tomorrow in Dallas. Maverick's dealing with their own issues. Luka
doncc as a thoracic contusion in ESPN reports it he'll
take an injection of a painkiller prior to Game three,
just like he did prior to Game two to deal
with that contusion. You guys mentioned it earlier. USA Basketball

(29:52):
saying Kaitlin Clark was not selected for the Olympic team
due to a lack of experience. Jen Rizzotti saying that
the task was to create the bet team, not use
player marketability and popularity as considerations. Christian mccaffery's great in
the cover of Madden twenty five. More news in the NFL,
Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers, along with pass rusher hasand Radick
not in attendance at the team's mini camp. Browns wide

(30:14):
receiver a Mari Cooper a no show. Well, Bengals wide
receiver T Higgins didn't report to the team. He has
yet to sign his franchise tag, so he is not
at mini camp. In golf, John Rams withdrawn from the
US Open because of an infection on his left foot.
It occurds rights between two toes on that left foot.
Scottie Schefler's going to play with Rory McElroy and Xanders
Shoffley in the first two rounds. They'll t Thursday at

(30:36):
Pinehurst number two at one fourteen Eastern Tiger Woods. T's
off Thursday morning at seven to twenty nine Eastern Time,
playing with Matt Fitzpatrick and Wills a Laturus Baseball Underway
Phillies in Boston tonight. But they want to have J. T.
Rail Mudo placed on the ten day IL following knee surgery.
He's expected to be out a while. Guys, back to.

Speaker 1 (30:53):
You, thank you, d dude, Damn Dan, you're not allowed
to answer and spot as we like to call klukschaisa,
which is Ermin for know it all between Danny g
I was Sam and Covina because I'll admit I didn't know.
I just looked it up. What is a theoretic contusion?
Theoretic contusion that Luca has without looking it up? Do

(31:16):
you know what a theoretic contusion is? A theoretic contusion
if you repeat it, you think you'll figure out if
you just keep repeating it. Yeah, bruise is a bruise
of sorts that we know theretic because we just you
know what thorassic rass the rast are going to do it.

(31:37):
A dinosaur grassic park, by the way, which came out
today in nineteen ninety three. Fun fact, I understand love
Theorrapic Park, one of my favorite movies. And I don't
do this to make me, you or anyone look silly.
It's just I feel like there so many times in
sports entertainment music when you hear something and you just
do yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah sure, and you play along.

(31:57):
And I was like, I can't play along. I don't
know what the hell of the rat that contusion is.
It has to be like a heel or something chest
chest chest, like a thoracic contusion can be caused by
a fall or direct blow to the chest, and it
could affect the lungs, airwaves, liver, spleen, so it could
be somewhere in the chest. I did you know this?

(32:17):
I did not know. You learned something new? Say? It's like,
uh know what. I find this to be the case
with the most energy. When people hear about salary caps
and over the cap and this and free agency and
uh players on waivers and all, I feel like most
people don't know every single tration arbitration. It's like, do
you know every single rule?

Speaker 11 (32:37):
You know?

Speaker 1 (32:38):
But we just all play alongest for sports fans, we
just assume you're allowed to look things up. That's the
novelty of the world of Google now right. A question
two about the buyer's update, Genrizzotti, is that her name?
I feel like I knew a girl with that name.
I definitely dated a girl named Generz. You lived in
Jersey in New York? Like, yeah, Jennfrizzotti from Rosalind, Long Island,
not that Jemrisatti from MESSI peak, I think I hung

(33:00):
out they're in Hoboken. But Jenn Rizzotti, Yeah, I think
we did uh red bolvodka shots at the planet Jaeger
bombs after our readvo had a hunk a bunk in Sayerville. No, no, no,
But you know, I keep hearing this like we were
picking the best team. Isn't that a little bit of
a sneak? This meaning that these are the players that
play that not only compliment each other and jail together,

(33:22):
but they also play and work the best together because
they like each other. Right, in order to have great chemistry,
you have to like So they're basically saying we don't
like her that much, if you want to look at
it that way, Like, yeah, Caitlyn Clark is great and all,
she might not be the best twelve, but she also
doesn't fit into this team.

Speaker 11 (33:41):
That's just some I think that's a really smart observation,
you know what I mean honestly, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (33:46):
Like they're saying that without saying it, like what makes
this the great team? It's it's because they all know
each other and they've played together and all that, So
she would be ruining the chemistry, is what they're saying.
It's not really fair, remember Clark. The other statement they
said was they were worried the fans would be upset
about her lack of playing time, which goes to your point. Yo,
let me tell you what a great team really is.
This is the truth, regardless of who's here. If it's Perfet,

(34:09):
if it's Shay feeling in for Danny g if it's
Monsie instead of Dan Meyer, you know, we work together
as a great team. You wouldjust and you make it
work and you create that chemistry or do your best,
your damn well best doing it. And they're telling their
state basically saying that statement that we can't do that
with Caitlyn Clark because this is the best team. Well,
then you're not that awesome. Because I feel like Rich

(34:31):
and I we could work with anybody and we bring
the best out of them. Did you say, prophet, I'm kidding,
but I'm serious about that guy, right. Don't we adjust accordingly? Listen?
And some teams and some versions might be better than others.
That's fine. Some people are more welcoming clubhouses. I guess
a lot like that's not a welcoming bunch of people
in the locker room known as Kevin and Rich, whether

(34:52):
it's a you know, John Ramos or then Lorena and
now I was saying when DB's not here, if it's
Nick Cope or you know, it's you make adjustments.

Speaker 3 (35:02):
If they would just say we didn't want to deal
with it.

Speaker 1 (35:04):
Yeah, which is.

Speaker 11 (35:05):
I think what you're saying, like in a way like
it may look, it may be spun in a way
of this is our best team chemistry, but it's also
to the fact that these other eleven or twelve players
aren't willing to adjust or would be willing to adjust
correct in that scenario.

Speaker 7 (35:21):
You're not even focusing centering the game plan around her.
So like she's if she's just like a bench player
and she's the twelfth best player on the team, like
she's just there to practice and shoot around, and she's
like gonna get in on the mop up time, like
they're gonna win with with her without her.

Speaker 1 (35:35):
So how about this too. It's like, you know, there's
two ways to look at this, and you see it
in any workplace, the old veteran is either going to
be welcoming to the young hot shot or not. And
I'm always going to choose to be welcoming always because
it's a weak ass look to be that insecure with
yourself to treat those young hot shots like they're not important,

(35:56):
you know, why not embrace them and be part of
And I feel like they're not embracing this at all.
How many proof is in that statement?

Speaker 11 (36:02):
How many press conferences are people sticking up for Kitlyn Clark?
Like I remember one and that was Becky Hammond yelling
at us on how they love Caitlyn Clark and that
we've got to get over it and that they love
Kitlyn Clark and we got to move on like that,
that's it, Like we haven't we haven't heard anybody. And
I always thought that could have the Olympic team could
amended fences. You know, Look, Kaitlyn Clark's one of us.

Speaker 1 (36:25):
How about this younger person might make the team, the
team better and more exciting. Man, But they don't care
about who's watching or the fans, they said, they spitchingbas problem.
We don't care about the fans. We don't care about
the viewership. Isn't that like the most backwards thinking you
ever heard? We don't care about the fans. Yeah, they're
gonna win the matter what the US women's basketball team said.
We don't care about the fans of the viewership. That's ridiculous,

(36:46):

decisions might be needing a new job not want to

and your hump day into a hump night. And it
starts with Midweek Major, the biggest stories in the world
of sports and pop culture every Wednesday. We do it Midweek.
I they mid Week or Major. Well, there's someone online
one that wants to argue with Steve Kavino. Apparently me.

(38:15):
I ain't got time for that. Jamel in Pittsburgh says,
trying to have a nice night, disagrees with you.

Speaker 2 (38:20):
What's up, Jammel, Thank you for taking the call. No problem, boy,
got a lot of bullet points to hit, so I'll
try to go as fast as I can.

Speaker 1 (38:28):
Don't worry. Good, you got it.

Speaker 2 (38:29):
I'm still trying to have someone explain to me the
monetization of If my butt's in a seat in Paris
watching Caitlin Cark play, how does that monetize when you
get back to the States.

Speaker 1 (38:41):
Because it popularizes the WN popularies game and jersey sales.
No one's gonna buy you, I can promise you this,
Jamel Ready, no one is going to buy a team
USA Woman's journey. How we know because they've been running
this for what forever? Forever? Diana Tarassi is what her
fourth Olympics? How many sixth dude? And no one cared?

(39:03):
And you're gonna say, all of a sudden, they care now.

Speaker 2 (39:07):
Again. My point is when everybody says the monetization. If
I'm hearing folks say that, okay, the games that are left,
that they're sellouts, that they're expanding the seating capacity at
the arenas, that's a monetization. Having Clark be the Christian
Latner of that team getting seven minutes when that time
is better served with her getting her legs back under her.

(39:29):
Because she played thirty nine games in college.

Speaker 1 (39:31):
I got a point for you. It's fine and let
me answer them as you go then, and rich or
whoever wants chime man, this is fun.

Speaker 3 (39:36):
Man.

Speaker 1 (39:37):
I appreciate the call. Did you just see the MLB
playing London globalize the sport? You're not doing it with
the same old characters. You have a chance to do
that with her. That's how you maximize it.

Speaker 2 (39:49):
But if you're going my powder point to that would
be next year in your schedule you have the Fever
play one of the European Professional League teams. That's how
you globalize. The NBA used to do that as well.
Where you take that the Lakers, they would play.

Speaker 1 (40:03):
Guess what, these foreigners don't care because they don't care
about these people. What is so hard for people to
understand about that? For whatever reason, dude, people like Caitlyn Clark.
They like watching her. She brings it. She brings attention
to the sport again. And the USA and the US
Committee said they don't care about They said they don't
care about ratings or what the fans think. That should

(40:25):
tell you that they just am putting together what they
think is the best team, which is counterproductive. Jamal, which
should know which is not it's a business, Jameel.

Speaker 2 (40:35):
But when Isaiah Thomas didn't make the Dream Team, yeah,
you know, great player didn't make the Dream Team. So
decisions have to be made. And if you look at
the team composition, especially at the Guardlange, that was personal man, that.

Speaker 1 (40:46):
Was Michael Jordan keeping them off the team. And that's
bs looking back. They stole that dude's opportunity to be
on the Dream Team, and that's what they're doing to
this woman. Yeah, you know, that's the truth.

Speaker 2 (40:56):
Look at the guards that are selected on the team.
Is Caitlin Clark better than the guards that they have
on that team?

Speaker 1 (41:01):
I don't know the other guards on the team. You
might as well tell me your name is Sally Struthers
and I'd be like, yeah, I don't know Sally Strummers.

Speaker 2 (41:09):
But that's that's an issue for those people who haven't
been following the w what I've.

Speaker 1 (41:14):
Been following the WIBA is this VJ. Vernon Husky on
the phone. VJ, get out of here. This is Jamail.
This is VJ VJ. Because he said, too, dude, all
these new fans are ruining the vibe of the w NBA.
I have a question for you what vibe? Who are
the old fan? Of course there was a few thousand
people tuning in, but that's it. She is the vibe.

(41:36):
Open your eyes and ears. No one was talking about it,
but you know, Jamel phone call, I really appreciate your calling.

Speaker 2 (41:44):
I liken Caitlin Clark to Steph Curry when he first
joined the league, Michael Jordan when he first joined the league.
You know, she's gonna get her twenty. There's gonna be
lots of turnovers and they're gonna lose. For the casual
sports fan, are they willing to watch night for night
for her to struggle, turn the ball over, get her twenty,
get blown out by twenty. We're begging on the future.

(42:06):
So if you've seen that happen already in the first
sample size, the season is not going to get any easier.

Speaker 1 (42:12):
So yeah, but look a look at the international play.
When they play in the Olympics, tm USA is gonna
whoop everyone throwing Kaitlin Clark in for ten to fifteen minutes.
Who's the most popular female athlete in the world, arguably
the most popular athlete in the world over the last
six months. Leaving her off just seems like a terrible misstep. Now,
highest TV ratings, highest attendance in twenty six years, She's

(42:33):
putting up decent numbers. Come on, I mean she's breaking
rookie records. Yea, if you have any more points, yeah,
let make that right. YEA, ahead, buddy, I want to
give your cha Olympics.

Speaker 2 (42:42):
The audience is already baked in. You know, if you
look at all the sports, you know, the viewership is
baked in. So it's not as if you're going to
have any additional net positive viewership of the Olympics.

Speaker 1 (42:53):
Not true. I'm not watching. I probably would have tuned
in if Kaitlyn Clark was there. Same same. Now, thank you, dude,
you're great call. I appreciate it, and we welcome all
you know, all angles, all views. We appreciate you.

Speaker 3 (43:04):
That there pet and more people aren't gonna watch that.
That definitely more people will watch.

Speaker 1 (43:08):
Like I will not watch one minute of one quarter.
You know, I we have proof. Have you ever watched before? No?
I haven't either, and I'm not proud of that. It's
just the truth. No, we've seen it. I mean the
other day we played as a w NBA player or
a Chipotle worker and I failed Oh can we play
that again. I will see you guys tomorrow. Have a

(43:28):
great one. All read it there at you baby, see
you in the Promised Land. Bye and goodbye.
