So we got Danny G on the phone at eight
seven seven ninety nine Fox Spot's getting ready for midweek
major and buyers on your updates on Cavino. That's Rich
now before you get into cheeseburgers and football and all
good stuff.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
We wrapped up our thoughts about baseball.

Speaker 2 (02:24):
But I had one more, one more personal question I
wanted to ask you guys. Oh boy knowing then yeah,
maybe she had a checked Rich, I know you've been
itching for for a minute, Jim Forrest, scratch No. I
I was looking at the MLB standings. Now Diamondbacks are
half a game ahead of my Mets. Okay, But but

(02:45):
if the Mets did end up making the postseason and
got hot the last ten games, which by the way,
isn't a while to think, the whole thing comes down
to how do you play over the final ten games?
After one hundred and fifty two, it's the last ten.
I love how some of these wrap up too, Like
the Yankees played Baltimore the second to last series. Yeah,

(03:08):
the Mets, who they play last Brewers? They okay, and
clinched today. Here's the crazy part. The Mets could play
the Brewers and then stay in Milwaukee because if they
were the third wildcard, the third wildcard plays the third
Division winner.

Speaker 1 (03:23):
So the Mets may rap against the.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
Brewers and then stay in Milwaukee on the road because
they play with them again. All right, So we talked
about the excitement, the scramble, all these moves being made.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
But what's your personal question.

Speaker 2 (03:36):
My question is, so many times over the years, I've
gone out of my way to see my team in person,
only to be let down multiple Super Bowl losses where
I spent money and resources to go to the game
World Series. Every time my team's in the big game,
they lose playoffs. I'm just like, I'm like I maybe
the mush if and Dan Byer would back me up

(03:58):
on this, because he was talking about this seedings of
the playoffs. If the Mets were the second seed, the
second wildcard, they would play the best wildcard, which is
likely going to be the Padres midweek like a Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday. Okay,
do I take a drive down do the show from
San Diego and see the Mets Padres if that would

(04:19):
be the case, I think so, But never underestimate that
the Mets will go three and seven of the final.
A comfort of your living room, seventy five inch TV,
you got, I feel like that front row seat on
your to your TV is the most underrated seat in
the house.

Speaker 1 (04:34):
And then I'm like, who would go with me by myself?

Speaker 3 (04:36):
Also, Rich, if you would like to drive to San Diego,
leave at five in the morning.

Speaker 1 (04:40):
You ever try to make that job?

Speaker 2 (04:43):
You know I can find the studio and do the
show from down there. But again, I'm a Mets fan
living on the West Coast, so it's not like a
bros around here.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
They'd be like, y'all go with you? Who's driving down
to San Diego on like a Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday? Chewie
we Sam will go with you? Y'll Sam? You got me?

Speaker 4 (05:00):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (05:00):
Can I offer a suggestion? Oh? Big, yes, Michael runs.
I was done for Vegas. I'll be done for so
much to.

Speaker 5 (05:07):
Go.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
By the way, so Michael goes. We party so hard
with Big Micro runs his place. I didn't trouble for work.

Speaker 1 (05:12):
Money, didn't Monday off to recoup true story goes.

Speaker 2 (05:15):
If that's any indication how fun it is to party
with Cavini on Rich Auburn.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
Next Friday, let's go.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
And by the way, you want to see our Vegas
adventures with Mike who runs his place? We posted pictures
at Covino and rich on our Instagram if you want
to check that out.

Speaker 1 (05:28):
Underneath the story, somebody wrote, who that's right?

Speaker 2 (05:31):
I love that.

Speaker 1 (05:32):
Hey, Danny Gy, so let me ask you this.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
I think you should be rich to answer your question
to traffic's insane. Danny gerready made that point, But yeah,
why not? I mean now that it's been a great season,
now that I've said it, the Mets will go three
and seven over the last ten and missed the playoffs.
But there's a fifty to fifty chance that if the
Mets were to make the postseason, they'd have that three
game wildcard set, all in San Diego.

Speaker 1 (05:55):
Yeah, I'm two hours away without traffic.

Speaker 3 (05:57):
Get in front of the traffic, and I gotta say
Hetco Park is one of the best spots beautiful in
the whole country to watch baseball.

Speaker 1 (06:04):
The night before. Very nice people. It's not like a
it's not like.

Speaker 3 (06:07):
A I don't know, Padres fans. You can consider nice people,
but they're not dangerous.

Speaker 1 (06:12):
It's not like going to a Philadelphia play. How does
that wrap go? Covino?

Speaker 2 (06:16):
Oh, that's what's it. That's what's it. But we've talked
about solo missions. I'm cool going on a business trip,
sitting at a bar having a drink, watching a game.
I'm okay go to the movie theater by myself a
lot of people. I saw an article about how more
than ever, people are doing solo traveling, like they're seeing

(06:36):
the world. They're going to Europe and you know, Mexico
and Canada and Barcelona. People travel solo more than ever.
Now weird to go on a solo baseball trip.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
Think about it. One seat too. I could probably get
a good set.

Speaker 2 (06:52):
It'd be fun. Like I said, go the night before.
So to answer your question, yeah, I think you go.
If you go at the right time. It's a two hour,
two plus hour drive to San Diego.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
Watch your team. You've rooted all season. Why not go?

Speaker 2 (07:06):
Now, go see the White Sox. You can have all
the seats. You know, you can sit on Harold Bain's
lap if you go to a White Sox. You know
now that I said that, you know the Mets will
now lose five in a row.

Speaker 1 (07:15):
So there you go. I jinxed it everybody.

Speaker 2 (07:18):
Now, Uh, We're gonna take a break from baseball from
football to talk about something I think we all love.
Like Danny loves the Raiders. I love the Niners. Dan
Byers a Seahawks fan. We all got our teams. I
was sam only rooster. Caitlin Clark to matter what sport
we talk about, MVP of the NFL, he roots for
Wayne and Garth. I could see it's yeah, Wayne's world

(07:38):
and iHeart But I think the one thing we could
all agree on a damn good cheeseburger. Today is one
of those dumb days. It's National Cheeseburger Day, and you
know that I love National days.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
Well, it's just a burger until Rich got it.

Speaker 3 (07:54):
And it's not that dumb because there's some chains with
specials in freebies today because of the holiday.

Speaker 2 (07:59):
Can I make a sure confession though? This is my confession.
I don't eat cheeseburgers. I'm like those intolerant. I don't
like cheese. I never got cheese.

Speaker 1 (08:10):
Cheese, not really the heck what am I? Steve Rkle
got any cheese. Don't make it sound like you're normal.
You're the weirdo here.

Speaker 2 (08:16):
I don't normally like hamburgers dairy byproduct. Tonight, I'm saying,
I'm come on, this guy telling you my story and
my my confession was this his truth I've never had.
My trip is my truth. I'm trying to be my
most unapologetic self. I'm being my most authentic self. Leave
me alone, guys. I never had a Big Mac and

(08:39):
I've never had a Whopper. Shut the front I've had,
you know.

Speaker 1 (08:45):
Just get out of.

Speaker 2 (08:46):
Here, Sam, go run to McDonald's.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
Cut it out. I don't need cheese.

Speaker 3 (08:52):
We have been trying to set up a Hibachi date
for Dan Byer. We need to set up a Whopper
date for you.

Speaker 1 (08:58):
So either way, get it without cheese, then I'll eat this.
Woppers don't have cheese.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
Yeah, you have to add cheese to it, not even
real cheese. Big Macs have cheese standard, but yeah, Whoppers
don't have cheese standards. Enough, with rich every day, there's
only so much cheese I can handle.

Speaker 1 (09:14):
Let me tell you. Let's tell you.

Speaker 2 (09:15):
There's a lot of lame things about you. One of
them is your cheeseburger habits. So you might want to
set this conversation out. I've seen cominos say the best
burger ever, and he got it on a lettuce rap
not even a bug.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
When we talk, I get regular hamburgers.

Speaker 2 (09:29):
Snugs, or I'll get that kids hamburg You know the
the chicken sea always say serve it looks like the
inside of a shoe. Yeah, long chickens, long shoes, chicken sandwich,
don't I have to, on my confession, back out and
defer to Rich as the authority here. I will say,

(09:51):
if we were talking regular hamburgers, I've said it before,
I'll say it again. Habit Burger is my favorite, most
underrated burger. It's a chain, it's out everywhere, but it
is a change when it comes to cheeseburger's, Rich, I'm.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
Gonna have to back out. I don't get cheeseburger. I mean,
I mean, it's not much different than a Hamburger. So
will allow you in this conversation. But still I don't
have the knowledge that you have.

Speaker 2 (10:13):
If there is a if there's a best go to
fast food cheeseburger, we want to hear what you think
it is. Because if you like you said, if.

Speaker 1 (10:24):
You said in my hometown, Bart's Burgers, no one knows Bartsburger,
so your phone call is irrelevant.

Speaker 2 (10:30):
I feel like there's the top few. There's a bills
Burger's nearby. Good for Bill and his burgers. It takes
like an hour to get your burger. But it's great.
I what are the top three? I'm my top three?
And have they changed? We always shut to update it,
you know what I mean? This National Cheeseburger Day, richest
mayor mccheese. Has it changed? Is there a solid three?
Can you do your best? Casey Kasem or Spider Harrison.

(10:52):
Let's count it down?

Speaker 5 (10:53):
Three?

Speaker 1 (10:53):
Yeah, what's coming in? Number three? Number three on my
top burger list? Number three. I'm gonna go shake check. Yeah,
never had it, Yeah, shake shack, good burger.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
I mean there are times that people there's people that
stand in line at Shakechack for like four innings at
City Field in New York. They're all over the place.
They're out here on the West coast. Now it's not
just the New York East Coast thing. Shakeshack fantastic, by
the way, saying no excuse, there's a few of them
in this area.

Speaker 6 (11:25):
You know, straight people waiting in line at the fight
this weekend for shake they missed like one of the
under cards.

Speaker 1 (11:30):
For tell you this, there's a shake check inside the
team in Las Vegas. I'm gonna go shakeshack number three,
number two, coming in at number two, number two, it's
it's way overpriced. But you didn't take this long with

(11:52):
your Super Bowl prediction.

Speaker 2 (11:53):
Right, hold on now, hold on number two. It's way overpriced.
And I hate the gimmick of throwing five million in
franchise in my bag. I feel like it's it ends
up being twenty some of the dollars a person. But
I'm going five guys. I've never had five guys enough.
I like their cheeseburgers.

Speaker 1 (12:12):
I give them a number two and number one, number one.

Speaker 2 (12:18):
Coming to number one, Spider Harrison with your top three burgers.

Speaker 1 (12:23):
Cheeseburgers.

Speaker 2 (12:25):
There's a place now I'm not doing the whole Portsburger's
next door because they have a handful of them. It
is regional, though. There's a place I go to all
the time in Texas. I think there are a lot
in the South, in the Midwest.

Speaker 1 (12:37):
I know it's coming Freddy's. This is really that good Texas.
I love Freddy's. I was. There's a place that I love,
but I don't think it's It's a chain, but not
a chain enough.

Speaker 2 (12:48):
That's a place called Pete Terry's. Pete Terry's is fantasm
good Freddy's because you know what I'm in a smash
burger rage right now, and they got a good smash burger.

Speaker 3 (12:57):
So I like on the Oklahoma tra I saw Freddy's
Rich I thought of you, is it really that good?

Speaker 1 (13:04):
I didn't have it.

Speaker 2 (13:05):
I don't I want to leave it. I defer now
to the Fox Sports Radio Nation number three. We're just
saying shake shack number two.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
Five.

Speaker 2 (13:12):
Guys, all good burgers have had those, never cheeseburgers, but
I've had them. Freddy's never had Freddie Schuize list only
because twenty twenty four is the year of the smash burger.
Everyone loves their little griddle smashed burger with l And
by the way, you're out here in LA, there's a
lot of people probably shaking their head saying, how does
he leave in and out?

Speaker 3 (13:28):
They are my number three? Okay, double double with cheese
in and out.

Speaker 1 (13:32):
Three.

Speaker 3 (13:33):
Okay, that's my number three, number two Carl's Junior Slash Harty's.
In other parts of the country, Western bacon cheeseburger.

Speaker 1 (13:40):
Oh so risk I get that. I get that without
the cheese, and it's so so good.

Speaker 3 (13:45):
It is all right, and number one for me, the
baconator cheeseburger at Wendy's something about how they do the
baconator there. It's it's a really good cheese.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
By the way, their hamburger is superior when it comes
to fast food.

Speaker 1 (13:58):
So how is Wendy's not on a list?

Speaker 2 (14:00):
And I worked at Wendy's in high school, So maybe
i'm a little like a little like I was the
I I dressed up as little orphan and I don't
know if you know that Wendy as the guy in
the middle here. I think I like Danny G's Top three.
I'm not even kidding, only because I never had Freddy,
so to be fair, I never had it.

Speaker 1 (14:14):
Okay, it's a good time. That's a solid top three.
But like Steak and Shake or Culver's danl is fantastic,
Wolver's fantastic Steak and Shake, this is not here, but
it's real. This is hard to narrow down. Damn Bayer.
Do you have any burger joints, any top three? They
come to mind? I am the king of the plane hamburger. Again.

Speaker 7 (14:31):
I don't like condiments. I don't like cheese. I don't
want lettuce or anything. Yes, what's that?

Speaker 5 (14:38):
What?

Speaker 1 (14:38):
Ron Swanson does?

Speaker 7 (14:39):
No condiments on his Plaine hamburger, the whole deal, butt
and meat only. That's what I want. Burger king is
all right. McDonald's is uh. Culvers would be my number
one for yes, for I don't, but I don't consider
like five guys in that same sort of conversation, although
I'd rather still have a Culver's burger.

Speaker 1 (14:58):
Culver's is a tear above the same way when Comino
says a habit burger, I feel like habit. And there's
a place out here that I think there's a place
out here that might be also regional, but that middle
level called the stand. Yeah, I'm going there after work.
The stand is next level up where it's not They
don't have drive throughs and you get a beer though,

(15:19):
you get a beer. That's what I'm gonna have it.
If they give you.

Speaker 2 (15:22):
A number to bring to your table and they bring
you the food that's cooking, Yeah, it's like mid level.
It's like diner, diner coming, Hey, enjoy your cheeseburgers in
and Danny g did point it out. Look on social media.
If you're hungry and you're a cheap skate and you
want some free food, there's a lot of fast food
burger places today. That are doing like free cheeseburgers if
you buy something else or buy one, get one free.

Speaker 1 (15:42):
So if you're in a cheeseburger type of mood.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
And with all this burger talk in honor of Iowa
Sam's Wayneworld's.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
Hat Swing Swing.

but we'll say midweek or maybe.

Speaker 2 (21:54):
I think it's major because he could have went with
a stupid Gucci hat. Nobody wants that now he's the
weakest hat ever. So at least he bought him a
Louis Vutan golf bag. He's using that that podcast money
that Taylor Swift residual money props to him. I think
that's a generous gift. I think it's nice. I think
it's a major gift. What do you think rich?

Speaker 1 (22:14):
I'm gonna go mid that they're rich and famous, like
money doesn't shock me with a present like that. But
is he a big golfers. Does he need Yes, it's kind.
That's a nice gesture.

Speaker 2 (22:26):
Listen, if we all made tens and tens of millions
of dollars, we'll be able getting each other pretty much.

Speaker 1 (22:30):
We thought that counts present, right.

Speaker 2 (22:32):
I thought that was thoughtful. It's a designer bag. Mahomes
might not have done that for himself, right, So Kelsey
went above and beyond did it for his buddy. I
think that's nice. Over to the other Kelsey.

Speaker 6 (22:44):
Jason Kelcey squashing rumors that he was drunk during the
Monday Night football celebration where you know, he was wearing
his green tracksuit doing the running man, jumping up and down,
breaking guys knees, all that kind of stuff. His brother
Travis was as it was, saying that he looked drunk
on the New Heights podcast this week, and Jason immediately
cut him off, being like, no, had zero beers. I'm

(23:06):
a professional. Although he did admit that it was very
tempting being back home in Philadelphia to want to jump
into some some libations, but he did avoid it.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
Midweaker major Yes, I said a.

Speaker 2 (23:18):
Mid story because even with Joe Buck during the broadcast,
he said that he wanted to wrap it up so
he could have a drink.

Speaker 1 (23:26):
So I believe he wasn't drinking.

Speaker 2 (23:28):
I think it's funny that his brother called him out
because he was acting a fool.

Speaker 1 (23:32):
He was everywhere. He was doing the running Man. You know, he.

Speaker 2 (23:35):
Practically did the worm on stage. So I think it's
a mid story. But I think he is professional enough
to wait, and I think he did.

Speaker 1 (23:44):
We've seen so much Kelsey Kelsey. I'm so. I mean,
I think it's Kelsey fatigue. I really do. Yeah, it
really is. I'm gonna go mid. I mean, so we agree,
grown men drink.

Speaker 6 (23:55):
If Kelsey Grammar showed up on the TV, would you
turn off because it's Kelsey?

Speaker 1 (24:01):
Yes, I would. I would. It's about Kelsey Ballerini, Yeah
I would. But hold on, hold on, Rich, I do
think that he again, he's signed a big deal as
a podcaster. He's trying to be taking more serious as
a broadcaster. I don't think he's going out.

Speaker 2 (24:15):
There during a big game and during a big broadcast
live booze and I don't think that's happening. But you
know what, Rich, he's a likable guy. It's just a
lot of Kelsey. And again, I don't want to be
a hater. It's just overexposure is a real thing, and
we have Kelsey fatigue, and it's it's true.

Speaker 6 (24:32):
All right, A big, big announcement in the sports world,
in the news world, in our world.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
Woljbombs no more. I know you guys.

Speaker 6 (24:41):
Adrian Wolfjanowski arust I know right, has announced his retirement
from ESPN to become the general manager of his alma mater,
Saint Bonaventure, their men's basketball team, apparently walking away from
roughly a twenty million dollars salary, which is insane. He's
known for being the go to voice for NBA breaking news,

(25:03):
as you know, spanning his career at ESPN, Yong Sports
and the record. So far too people in contention to
uh to replace him. I know McAfee's trying to get
his hand behind uh. Shams Sharaniah. Yeah, and Chris Haynes
is Shams. And Chris Hanes is also another person in contention.
UH Midbeaker major.

Speaker 2 (25:23):
I think it's major when you're talking twenty million dollars
in opportunity for someone else to be that guy. Look,
we worked at ESPN. They sweated this guy so hard.
I remember see Hi in the hallways that it's like
people like everything he said was gospel and texting Lebron.
And again if you're not familiar, he's like the chefter

(25:45):
to the NBA. He was the guy that had the school.
You know, if a Wojes bomb was dropped, you knew
it was legit. Like this guy was the guy in baseball.
I guess that's like what Jeff Passon nowadays. I don't know,
There's always somebody, but he was the dude before this
opens it up for somebody else.

Speaker 1 (26:00):
Before it was Jeff Passon, it was uh like a
Tim Kirch ar buster, only he's that guy for the
NBA Shams. I don't know who they guy to take
over is.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
But I'm more shocked by you're telling me he made
twenty million dollars.

Speaker 1 (26:14):
That seems like ridiculous.

Speaker 6 (26:16):
I don't know if that was part of a contract
negotiation to keep him or if that was his current salary,
but that's what they're saying, that he walked away from
twenty million.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
That's insane, but I believe I believe it the way
they respected him at ESPN. Did you would have told
me two to five million, I would have been like,
oh wow, not only money on.

Speaker 1 (26:34):
Social media and on television like in real life.

Speaker 2 (26:38):
They rolled out the red carpet's why Disney World tickets
are so expensive? No good for him, though, congrabts man,
all right, We'll stick with the ESPN for a minute.
One person you may never see the booth on Monday
Night Football, stephen A. Smith the ESPN house, has.

Speaker 6 (26:52):
Apparently been eyeing a spot on the Monday Night Football crew,
but a source within the company says the rest of
the crew do not want him. They reveal that members
of the show are concerned with his football knowledge as
well as his attitude, saying he's not a team player,
which is a huge red flag. And the workers talk
to each other they absolutely dislike him, don't want to
deal with him. He just wants to take all the

(27:13):
attention in spotlight for himself. It's a little tea bubbling
up at ESPN midweek or major, very major story.

Speaker 2 (27:20):
I think he's, you know, one of the best, but
he's the best at what he does. I don't think
he plays well in that situation at all.

Speaker 1 (27:27):
I think steven A is great where he is.

Speaker 2 (27:30):
I agree it'd be too much attention on steven A
and not on the game and everyone else.

Speaker 6 (27:34):
You guys talk about Kelsey fatigue, this would be steven
a fatigue everything.

Speaker 1 (27:38):
I'm I'm a fan.

Speaker 2 (27:39):
Of what he does. I respect steven as a podcast
he's entertaining. He's entertaining, But the in his world, the
first take and then his podcast when he.

Speaker 1 (27:47):
Does when he does fighting, or when he does UFC
or football or other sports. I don't seem to enjoy
his brand as much, I guess, And when he gets
too in depth, I think he gets exposed from time
to time, Like he was talking baseball recently and he
got the whole Yankees lineup wrong, and it's like, I

(28:09):
don't know.

Speaker 2 (28:10):
I love what stephen A does. He's great at what
he does. Yeah, that's not any hate. What'soay? So would
be like asking us to do something more serious, we'd
be exposed because we're not, like, you know, we're not
woes essentially, right.

Speaker 1 (28:21):
Yeah, So thank you. It's funny.

Speaker 6 (28:24):
Yeah, of course, this I thought was a funny story. Actually,
you know what, I'll get to that in a second.
Mike Tyson Jake Paul fight just under two months away,
and Tyson revealed the current state of his health that
could be a little bit concerning. In an interview with
USA Today's Sports, Tyson revealed that he's legitimately having trouble
like moving around, getting around and walking. He said, it's

(28:45):
hard to walk right now, but two months from now,
I'm going to be perfect. As you know, the fight
was already postponed from July due to some stomach issues
that he was having, so he plans to push through
for this been doing stem cell and electric stimulation therapy
to speed up recovery. He went on to say how
he's a man and wants to go out there and
expose himself to risk. Quote, sometimes I just want to

(29:05):
see who I really am. I want to see what
I'm really made of. So hopefully we'll see that on
November fifteenth, midweek or major. Oh it's major.

Speaker 2 (29:12):
I mean, so much is on the line here, so
many people, millions of people worldwide excited about this fight.
They were at the Dallas Cowboy game, you know, face
to face. I believe the quote was my the dirt.
I believe he said his toots.

Speaker 1 (29:25):
He's hurt.

Speaker 2 (29:26):
And we've seen Mike a few times, we've interviewed him.
He always wears those old guy oversized shoes Like it
looks like he wears orthopedic shoes. I think he does
have footed shoes. Man, I'm not I'm not even joking,
but focus gout. He's always wearing like giant Nike monarchs.
Like he definitely has some foot thing going on. Ye,
that's major, and it's really sad to me.

Speaker 1 (29:47):
You don't want any disadvantage for Tyson.

Speaker 2 (29:49):
Yeah, do you want to hear the childhood boxing hero
Mike Tyson is having trouble getting around when he's about
to get in the ring with the young rip Jake Paula.

Speaker 1 (29:58):
Exactly. You don't want to see that happened.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
Then again, we did talk to Jim Lampley over the
weekend in Vegas, and Jim Lampley seemed very confident and
adamant that Mike Tyson could win this fight.

Speaker 1 (30:11):
I don't know. Yeah, I don't like this news. So
it's major because it's a big fight.

Speaker 8 (30:14):
Nice, definitely major and we all grew.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
Up loving Mike Tyson. Yeah, I can throw in one
more rich.

Speaker 6 (30:20):
I know, well, prior to this weekend that you said
quote I believe the Saints are trash.

Speaker 4 (30:24):
Yeah, this past weekend, I still one fad on TikTok,
notice a pattern that might bode well for the Saints
this year. Apparently, electioneer Derek Carr is unstoppable and dominant.
So TikTok user Finesse Wess pointed out Car's stats in
twenty sixteen, twenty twenty, and twenty twenty four, and this

(30:45):
video went on to rack up millions of views.

Speaker 6 (30:47):
In twenty sixteen, which is a third year in the league,
was apparently the best season, as he went twelve and
three with the Raiders before getting injured. In twenty twenty,
had the highest passer rating of his career with one
oh one point four, and after two games the season
all ready he has the highest completion rating, percentage and
yards per attempt of his career so far. Damn So
Derek Carr at election year might be someone to bet

(31:08):
on mine the car.

Speaker 2 (31:10):
I think it's a mid coincident dance. Remember the song
coincid Dance. What a coincidence. I think it's major to
see what he's doing. I think it's cool. I think
he's lightening it up, like we keep dropping the stat
he's scored on every possession so far. You can't debate
that he's having a great season, but coincidentance.

Speaker 1 (31:31):
Yeah, I'm gonna say coincidence.

Speaker 2 (31:33):
But then again, Derek Carr might be in that category
of Baker and Sam Darnold of guys that we sort
of rode off at.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
Oh not so fast.

Speaker 2 (31:39):
Good for him, man, Well, thank you Spoddy. You guys
are dude, and yours Dan Bayer DP for an update.

Speaker 1 (31:45):
What's up the guys.

Speaker 7 (31:48):
The Milwaukee Brewers are NL Central champions and they didn't
have to do anything today. They just got to sit
back and watch the A's do their dirty work. Oakland
top the Cubs five to three at Wrigley Brewers Magic.
I'm to clinch the Central was one coming into today,
hit is now zero as the Brewers are the NL
Central champs for the second straight year and also champs
for the third time in four years. Diamondbacks top the

(32:12):
Rockies nine to four Arizona as we speak, currently a
half game up on the Mets for the second wild
guard in the National League. In action just getting underway,
Orioles are having a tough time with it. Craig Kimbrell,
designated for assignment by the O's yesterday. Baltimore has already
done one nothing to the Giant San Francisco starting the

(32:32):
game with a leadoff home run, so in trying to
catch Cavino's Yankees. The O's are falling and falling fast
and White Sox and Angels. Why not play extras?

Speaker 1 (32:42):
Right? Why not play extras? The interest levels high? Yeah,
two to two right now the tenth inning.

Speaker 7 (32:47):
Jordan Love limited in practice today, charges quarterback Justin Herbert
dealing with an ankle injury. That's according to his head
coach Jim Harbaugh. Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson limited with
a quad injury. No practice for Texans running back Joe
because of his ankle injury. Seedee Lamb didn't practice for
the Cowboys, though he's expected to start against the Ravens
in Week three. The Rams did not place Cooper Cup

(33:10):
on injured reserve to fight, despite the fact that Cup
could miss multiple weeks because of his ankle injury. The
Rams did place offensive lineman Jonah Jackson in safety John
Johnson the third on injured reserve. And the WNBA is
expanding again, but this is a first. They're going to Portland.
Portland will be getting a team in twenty twenty six.
The league's fifteenth franchise. It'll be the first time that

(33:32):
the WNBA is going back to a city that they
abandoned about twenty or so years ago there was the
Portland Fire. That team then no longer has existed, but
they are now going back to Portland for the fifteenth
franchise in the league.

Speaker 1 (33:45):
Thank you, Pevis, thank you, damn thanks guys.

Speaker 2 (33:48):
Hey d me a spot said, woes making all that money,
Danny g thanks, We will loo get this up. It was
a three year deal about twenty mil. But still whatever
he gives up. A general manager of a university like
that of a program makes like a couple hundred thousand
dollars tops, compared to millions of dollars being the main
NBA guy.

Speaker 7 (34:08):
Peace of mind is priceless. Right, enough money, right, yeah?

Speaker 1 (34:12):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (34:12):
When doing all of that, how about a change of gears.
He was at the top of his game for so
long he doesn't have anything else to prove.

Speaker 1 (34:19):
Yeah, good for him. Peace of mind.

Speaker 2 (34:20):
Kevino once told me in the two thousands when we
were single, Remember your favorite phrase, I do peace of
mind way better than random piece of booty.

Speaker 1 (34:28):
Yeah that's true. Sure, be a good man. Think about it.

Speaker 2 (34:31):
You have a girlfriend, flirting with other women, peace of mind,
better than booty. All right, we got more Covine on Rich. Next,

What a coincidentance?

Speaker 2 (36:26):
Covino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio, WHOA.

Speaker 1 (36:31):
If you don't know this song, you gotta look it up.

Speaker 2 (36:36):
Go in way back on a Wednesday, a viral video
called Coincident Dance, and it's a dance that swept the nation.
I wonder if, yeah, I wonder if Jason Kelsey knows
this dance. Covino and Rich at Covino and Rich now

(36:56):
tomorrow old school and fifty hits right. We always throw
it back and reminisce wow and could really dance? Wow,
you could really dance.

Speaker 1 (37:05):
It reminds me of Sprockets.

Speaker 2 (37:07):
And we also do lock and Key tomorrow because Dan
Byer will be here tomorrow, so your locks. We can
include Thursday Night football too. Your locks for Week three
of the NFL. We break it down. We continue with
lock and Key on tomorrow's show. Some more Reason to
join us again. I'm Steve Cavino. That is Rich Davis.
I now listen, We're gonna get to the Shack thing,

(37:29):
which means, well, maybe we'll talk dolphins tomorrow. And it's
great because we just said coincid Dance is Shack trying
to say it's a coincid dance that there's another seven
foot something, big African American guy that has his exact complexion,
size and everything that was holding a woman by her chest.

Speaker 1 (37:49):
I'm busy. I'm doing podcasts. I got things to do.
By the way, you do you know my podcast name
Shaq Blackafee. I did hear him say that? Shack?

Speaker 2 (38:01):
The funny part about it, he has said that he is.
Now you said he posted him lip syncing it wasn't.

Speaker 1 (38:07):
Me for him? Yeah, video on his social Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (38:11):
There's a picture of a giant man and it's caressing
the bosoms of a woman, right. And in this photo
is this man and the woman is Maria Azuna Teachi.
She's this online influencer, Maria Ozuna Teachi, and it looks

(38:32):
exactly like Shaq. But you don't see his head. You
just see his body, his physique, his feet, his hands,
and he's saying it isn't him. Now is it a
quincid dance that a similar thing happened with Shannon Sharp
earlier this week, where you know, a very provocative sort
of thing happened Ram What did he say? I was hacked?

(38:53):
It wasn't him. He goes viral. It becomes a thing.
Now Shaq is saying, no, that's not him. When everyone
that's like it's gotta be Shack. I don't know why
he's denying it. So, I don't know if this is
the blueprint to go viral nowadays, or he's piggybacking off
of the whole shehnnon sharp situation. But that's the story
as we know it. It's a viral PDA pick where

(39:17):
everyone's like, yo, look at Shack and he's like, no,
it's not him. Whoin's a dance or not? Next question,
Shack denies the picture everybody. But I think that's just
the blueprint. I think you're going to see some other
copycats doing risky, salacious things just to get that headline
to trend, to get people talking sex cells.

Speaker 1 (39:38):
Yeah, it's gotta be.

Speaker 2 (39:42):
It's gotta be his, no question. I don't know why
he's denying it again. I think he's pulling a shennon sharp.
I mean, I'm trying to think if there's any pop
culture sports music reference where someone's like tattoo gave it
away or someone's it's I mean, honestly, let's be real.
Everything from the complexion to the size to the muscle met.

Speaker 3 (40:04):
I mean, yeah, besides color Idea'd be like if I
tried to crank call one of your guys's house.

Speaker 6 (40:12):
Is this j It's weird. I swear I have a
photo with Shak and he held me the same.

Speaker 2 (40:19):
By the way, Yeah, there's all these other pictures of
Shak people are putting. He has so many pictures of
him in the same pose sort of with other women. Yeah,
and he's still denying that this is him. I mean, listen,
it can be a crazy Quinci dance. Look at the
whole plot line of my cousin Vinnie. They thought, how
could it be anyone but those two guys. Look, and

(40:42):
that's really the story telling me similar seven foot yeah, man,
I mean it's a big dude. Whoever it is is
a very big guy and is a very small woman
being hugged by Shack at the Sack of s in
a provocative sort of way.

Speaker 1 (40:56):
At the SACA Sades in Alabama. Are we gonna go?

Speaker 2 (40:59):
By the way stop at the side, Hey, Rich, you
see you have two more minutes. And by the way,
your thoughts about Shaq hit us up at Covino and
Rich at Fox Sports Radio. What do you think about
Ben Roethlisberger endorsing Oh, that's a cheeseburger day.

Speaker 1 (41:14):
What about the Roethlisberger with cheese. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (41:18):
No.

Speaker 2 (41:18):
What do you think about his endorsement for Justin Fields.
I think it holds a lot of weight, no pun intended,
because I mean that's his position.

Speaker 1 (41:28):
A lot of people are thinking it.

Speaker 2 (41:30):
Hey, when you want, I don't think you throw Russell
Wilson in there when Fields is playing? All right, you
stick with the hot hand, You let him grow and
let him play.

Speaker 1 (41:40):
Do you like the do you like the veterans and
the champions of your team's history chiming in because when
they do, I feel like it does hold weight with Yeah,
I bet you. Wilson's probably saying, hey, why don't you
shut up about that? You got enough? You got enough
people thinking that already. When Roethlisberger, Yeah, you don't think
Tomlin got word of that. I'm not saying he's basing

(42:01):
his decision on that, but I think it does hold
some weight. When it's Ben Roethlisberger on National Cheeseburger Day.

Speaker 2 (42:09):
Big Ben's got two super Bowl victories, he's been to three.
I mean, he is a recent legend on that Pittsburgh
Steelers squad.

Speaker 1 (42:16):
And it's nothing personally, I think you just stick with momentum. Well, tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (42:21):
Like you said, we get a lot going on, and
we ran out of time today, which we always do.
But any quick thought that we could expand on tomorrow,
Any any moves that Dolphins should make or should they
try to? Just see what Skylar Thompson has that.

Speaker 1 (42:37):
Ties into the story.

Speaker 2 (42:38):
Because there's some people chirping about, hey, well then take
a look at Russell Wilson.

Speaker 1 (42:42):
If you're sticking with Justin Fields.

Speaker 3 (42:44):
This reminds me of the whole Zack Wilson Jets thing
last season.

Speaker 1 (42:47):
Maybe they just stuck with him the whole time.

Speaker 3 (42:50):
What we knew who Zack Wilson was, and I was
screaming on our show to go out get somebody else.

Speaker 1 (42:55):
Maybe it's a Trey Lance situation.

Speaker 2 (42:58):
I have seen some guys on social media saying Kaepernick
is ready. Yes stuff, I know. I don't even want
to say that, but I've seen out there. I don't
know what do you do in Miami? But your question,
that's a great analogy.

Speaker 1 (43:12):
Last year, we all knew what Zach Wilson could do,
and it wasn't bring him to the playoffs or even close.
I feel that way.

Speaker 2 (43:18):
I hate to say it, not trying to be mean,
but Scylett Thompson's up bringing the Dolphins out of that
division into the postseason.

Speaker 1 (43:23):
All right, we'll see you guys tomorrow. Until then, have
a great night, A rivendarci baby, see you in a
promised land. Goodbye.
