Yeah, I would appreciate that. I put a lot of
hard work into it. CNR. We'd be rocking out. Let's go.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
Congrats again to the Dodgers, to the Yankees, Steelers, Lion Seahawks,
the Liberty. Hope you had a Liberty sort of weekend.
I didn't forget about it. I saw the highlights.

Speaker 3 (01:13):
Yay. And now we continue.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
Yeah, the New York Liberty, not the New York team
I was hoping won the big one.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
None of them.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
We continue with things that made you go hmmm from
this past weekend. And we also ask you Fox Sports
Radio Nation to get ready for Last One Standing.

Speaker 3 (01:31):
We do it in.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
About a half hour so and we need your phone
calls at eight seven to seven ninety nine on Fox Rich.
We're gonna be giving away prizes. We got brand new Swiggies.
They're a different color. I don't want to give away
the surprise. We got all different sorts of prizes, all
sorts of treats for this Halloween season, and your chance
to win one later on, and we're gonna let two

(01:53):
people play Last one Standing, your chance at a prize
this hour. But cool things that made you go home.
You brought up Aaron Rodgers. Dude, he looks so defeated.
You brought up the fact that last year was Zach Wilson.
At this time of the year, they were four and three,
they're two to five. They look so bad, dude, they
look so defeated. Aaron Rodgers has no answers. Russell Wilson

(02:17):
played way better than he did. So that made me
say because it said to me, like, when does he
start getting blamed for this stuff?

Speaker 2 (02:25):
I mean when the season started, the Jets were minus
one forty in Vegas to make the playoffs, like favored
to be in the postseason. Right now they're minus three
p forty two miss the playoffs. Like this Jets experiment
is not going well.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
And dude, to add insult to injury, he pulled the
all well, I call it the old Rich Davis on
national television. He pulled the old Rich Davis bro he
was picking digging for gold and then he ate it.
At least that's what they're saying on camera.

Speaker 3 (02:56):
I don't know. I saw the still images. I haven't.
Oh no, I saw the video clip.

Speaker 4 (03:01):
Dude, you tell me he did it, and you know
whether he threw three interceptions or not. I don't mean
to throw Gardner Minshew under the bus, but against the Broncos,
the cameras caught him doing it. You kind of on
the sidelines, I'm like, what is up with these quarterbacks
who throw interceptions, then go to the sideline and do that.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
Maybe that's like to break the curs or something. Maybe
that's a football sona sana.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
Co I was a bugger eating little kid. I mean,
but doing it on the sideline of an NFL game.

Speaker 3 (03:28):
I mean, you're a.

Speaker 1 (03:29):
Grown man and you know the spotlights on you. That's
what's crazy about this three. You don't do the old
rolling flick like Dan Byer does.

Speaker 3 (03:36):
Flick.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
Yeah, pick and flick. dB knows what I'm talking about.
Everybody does in the update room, grown man on TV.

Speaker 5 (03:44):
We don't put him on the wall. You just if
it's a dry one, you roll it up and you
see how far you can throw it across the room.

Speaker 3 (03:51):
I try to hit, I was saying with one.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
Don't usually is it that the hand? You usually like
pat Big Mike on the back, like, hey Mike can
see it.

Speaker 6 (03:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (03:57):
Yeah, Sometimes I wipe it on Big MIC's back. Sometimes
I want to wipe it under my Big MIC's desk.
But dude, I don't know if everybody has seen this. Yeah,
the Jets stinking like Abe B Lincoln. We already established that, right.
But then Aaron Rodgers was caught picking, digging and then eating.

(04:19):
He was doing something bro You could say he was
biting his nails or whatever, but something was going on.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
Let me give you one more thing that maybe go hmmm.
The NFL threw up week seven that NFC North is
so good. I'm just trying to figure out who is
the odd man out? Because Lions win, so technically they're
in first place at five and one the Vikings that
was a close game. They're five and one. Green Bay,

(04:45):
nice win over the Texans, that was a close one. Aaron,
Aaron Jordan loved, looked great. They're what five and two now,
that whole division is fantastic and the Bears same thing.

Speaker 3 (04:56):
So who is the odd man out?

Speaker 2 (04:58):
If you got to pick right now because all four
not making the playoffs.

Speaker 1 (05:01):
Wow, that's a tough one. Man, I'll go. I'll go
Bears first, promising as they've been. They look great, they
made incredible improvements. But the Bears. To answer your question,
NFC North powerhouses and Rich mentioned the Lions Vikings that
was a battle, came down to a field goal and
Jake Bates this made me goal hmm, because we're experiencing something, guys,

(05:22):
I don't know if everybody's realizing this. But Jake Bates,
after hitting the field goal for the win, brought the boom.
Now what does that mean?

Speaker 3 (05:32):
He brought the boom. That's what he did. He brought
the boom.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
If you guys don't know what that is. If you
play that, I'm walking out big No, no, no, that's
Big Justice and AJ. They're the costco guys, the father
and son duo that are sweeping the nation so much
so that you're seeing NFL players do their dance. They're
just online TikTok celebrities, and you're seeing SNL now parody

(06:00):
TikTok stars. So it's an even bigger thought. Meaning where
SNL used to parody or imitate presidents or movie stars
or big time celebrities, they're getting those big time inspirations
from social media and we're seeing it in the NFL
as well.

Speaker 3 (06:21):
Remember when radio hosts used to be the influencers.

Speaker 1 (06:25):
Yeah, oh of course, one of my buddies was parodied
on SNL back in the day, you know, because radio
stars were a big deal. But social media killed the
radio star for the most part, not here on Fox
Sports Radio, but the rest of radio. So I thought
that was kind of interesting too. I think that made
me say, hmm, it's like today's real star is a

(06:47):
social media star. I know that sounds crazy to think,
but we're seeing them do that dance in the NFL now,
So if you don't know what it is, it's when
they're flexing like this and then they're just kicking back
and forth. And you saw it at the end of
the Lions game. Something else that made me go, Danny
g I was saying, we'll take your phone calls. Everybody
share some observations. Patrick Mahomes dude. First of all, that

(07:13):
run he had, that forty yard run that he had.
It's kind of interesting how he could totally knock over
Malik Mustafa, give him the shoulder, make him look so stupid,
make them look bad, growl on top of him.

Speaker 3 (07:27):
Yeah take that.

Speaker 7 (07:29):
Yeah right, But.

Speaker 1 (07:32):
He could stop and everyone has to sort of back
off because it's Patrick Mahomes. And that's sort of what
I got out of that forty yard run. I know
he made a sweet move, Danny, but he also looked
like he was slowing up and they're sort of paying
respect to Patrick Mahomes.

Speaker 4 (07:46):
Yeah, we all our favorite defenses right now, we watch
them pull up and try to levitate so that they
don't put their weight on a quarterback, and they're so
scared to touch the quarterback, especially near the sideline.

Speaker 1 (07:57):
So you could say props to Mahomes for manipulation the system.
Or you know, like he stops kind of and everyone's thinking, well,
we're not gonna hit him, and then he keeps running
or do you say, yo, that's kind of weak, and
then he could just run somebody over when he wants
to man Mahomes. Quarterbacks in the NFL getting a lot
of leeway, a lot of leverage, nothing new, but we

(08:18):
saw it. We saw it pretty significantly this weekend, and
then that makes you think of something else.

Speaker 3 (08:24):
Getting your phone calls.

Speaker 1 (08:25):
Next the Dadbod Rich references before they're saying, it's dad
Bod season. Yo, we know it's postseason, it's NFL season,
but it's dad Bod season. I thought it was like
hooded sweatshirt season, zip up season. They're saying, let the
dad Bod shine, because when you see the side by
side between Mahomes and Mustafa.

Speaker 3 (08:47):
It's ridiculous.

Speaker 1 (08:48):
This night and day, Mahomes looks like he had a
pizza and a six pack before the game, and there's
no shame in that. He looks like the everyday physically
everyday guy. Mustafa's ripped. He looks like a mini dk
Metcalf and he just pummel that dude this weekend. So
is the dad bought in makes you say, hmm, makes
me want to be lazy a little bit? All right, now,

(09:10):
your phone calls and your thoughts Fox Sports Radio Nation,
your observations from the weekend.

Speaker 4 (09:16):
Sometimes being that chiseled like tightens you up. So maybe
he's not as loose as a Mahomes. Well, and that's true.

Speaker 1 (09:23):
But you also see the the the what is it,
the hypocrisy, the irony. I don't know where Mahomes could
just totally level this dude, but everyone has to back off.

Speaker 4 (09:34):
Mahomes sometimes spotty. It makes you lay on your couch
for too long with acid reflex too, dude, Right.

Speaker 1 (09:39):
Mahomes basically said, all right, running the ball, running, running, running,
all right, stop, don't hit me, just kidding, running, running, running, running,
That's really what he did. Hey, site guys, Hey, I know,
thanks for easing up. Now he starts running again, Like,
how's that fair?

Speaker 3 (09:54):
DP? You agree with what I'm saying? You put it
in better words, but that's what my eye.

Speaker 5 (09:58):
I can't, actually I can't because that's exactly what happened.
And even the over pursuing. You know that if it's
anything borderline. Heck, the Chiefs got to a Super Bowl
because of an outer bounds hit against the Bengals in
the AFC Championship game. You feel that Kansas City's gonna
get those calls, especially if it's Patrick Mahomes. So you

(10:20):
ease up at that point. And he completely took advantage.

Speaker 4 (10:22):
Of a flag on the Niners just for thinking about that, right, No, seriously,
just for thinking.

Speaker 1 (10:29):
But he had a game really exposed riches forty nine ers.
And now we go to your phone calls real quick,
and again remember your phone calls for the last one standing.

Speaker 3 (10:38):
We do that.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
Next, we got super recede in Detroit. Can you tie
in for the Lions props? They brought the boom? What's
going on, buddy?

Speaker 6 (10:48):
Oh, it's all good. I'll roll with the Lions, bro,
I'll roll with the Ravens and Pittsburgh. So actually, I
want to talk about Russell Wilson and how he des
him and Mike Tomlin. He needs to cuss everybody out.
That was talking garbage. I mean cuts him out, I
mean we look good. I would go off of each
every last individual trying to pressure to coach and trying

(11:11):
to downplay the big brother that won the Super Bowl.

Speaker 4 (11:16):
Fields is the little brother learn from the big brother?

Speaker 6 (11:21):
Big brother?

Speaker 7 (11:22):
Bruh.

Speaker 1 (11:22):
I don't watch a big brother. I hate that show.
I don't like the Golden Power of Veto. I hate
that corny show. But thank you, super receided. No, I
feel you, man. And as far as Russell Wilson, hey,
if he does it again, then maybe we did sleep
on him. Maybe he's better. He's got more legs than
we thought. He looked better than Aaron Rodgers. Dude, Aaron
Rodgers looks sad. He went from Has anyone said this yet?

(11:47):
He's a bad man too. He's a sad man. Quote
me on that. Get that on Fox Sports radio dot com.
Thank you, Thank you, Elijah, thank you Sager. Again, you
could see what you hear Fox Sports Radio dot Com
and at Fox Sports Radio. And we're gonna go to
Kevin now, Kevin in Washington State.

Speaker 3 (12:08):
We do it every Monday. Things that made you go hmm.

Speaker 8 (12:12):
So I feel the same way with the Steelers. But
why are they not running a two quarterback system. He's
got Gibbs in Montgomery Detroit, Right, you got a chain
and you got Mozart and Miami. Like, I think they'd
be a better team if they were the first ever
dual quarterback system.

Speaker 3 (12:27):
Maybe you're going to do it.

Speaker 1 (12:28):
But maybe that's the takeaway, right, maybe they do. I
don't know, not dB any.

Speaker 3 (12:34):
Thought on that. No, that does not work.

Speaker 4 (12:36):
Yeah, because as a quarterback, you need to get into
a rhythm and so that's you know, unless you're really
vomiting all over the field, which then you're pulled for
the quarterback to come in for you to hopefully not vomit.
You just don't want to ruin a quarterback's flow and
confidence as well.

Speaker 3 (12:53):
Like it's a big deal.

Speaker 5 (12:55):
I mean especially too because the quarterback you're leader of
your team, and if they're only in the huddle half
the time, you can have a package for justin fields,
say hey, I get we get in, you know in
the red zone, maybe we're gonna come in. We'll do
this package and defenses are going to have to prepare
for it. But you can't do a split.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
You guys, you guys nailed it. It's a wishy washy
sort of way to be. It's like, well, who's leading
this team? You got to make a decision there. Uh,
Dan Byer nailed it. You could still incorporate some sort
of player package to incorporate both of them. But great question.
Thank you, Kevin. Uh, let's go to Nick in New
York City, bring the boom on Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 3 (13:29):
What's up? Man?

Speaker 9 (13:31):
Do not confuse me with the people in the city.
I'm from upstate New York.

Speaker 3 (13:34):
Yeah, yeah, boy, what's up? So you will have up
here like you wear work boots to weddings? I know.

Speaker 9 (13:40):
No, No, I'm not that country. I'm not from Look
you can look up Burn, New York. I'm not from there.
I'm from Albany.

Speaker 1 (13:46):
Dude, that's where my family's from. My family's from upstate Oneida,
Vernon all I know.

Speaker 9 (13:51):
I'm telling you everyone up here has a family member
that will wear kimberlind or Carhart.

Speaker 3 (13:56):
Yeah, yeah, there it is. That's it. Okay.

Speaker 8 (14:01):
I have to say that.

Speaker 9 (14:02):
With Russell Wilson and everything with him, Uh, it wasn't
that bad. What were you guys talking about before I
got off the track.

Speaker 1 (14:12):
Well, these are we do it every Monday. Things that
make you go just your observations, any observations, things that
stood out to you in the world of sports and entertainment.
And we were just talking about how why are we
not doing a two quarterback sort of system in Pittsburgh
because Russell Wilson sort of showed he's got some games.

Speaker 9 (14:28):
Yeah, it never worked. Remember when they brought out a
wildcat and everyone's like, oh, this is the future, and
then we all went crazy like.

Speaker 6 (14:34):
Oh, oh yeah, here we go.

Speaker 3 (14:37):
There's no quarterback system. Yeah, we all agree that's not
the way to go.

Speaker 1 (14:42):
But thank you, Nick, and hopefully you're rooting for the
Yankees man wherever in New York City. In New York
you are. Let's go to Dale in Wisconsin. Dale, You're
on the CNR show Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 10 (14:55):
Hey, hey guys, So two questions. So my first question
is the pass has been good and they Kirkler is
a good kucker, yes, and doesn't get any tuco them there.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
Well, yeah, to beat the Texans, they brought the boom.
I think that's a huge win for the Packers. I
agree with you, that was a statement win. But Rich asked,
before you know, when it comes to the NFC North,
who's the odd guy out. I don't think it's the Packers.
I think they're They're a great young team. We've been
saying that for the past two years. I think unfortunately

(15:37):
the Bears are out.

Speaker 3 (15:38):
What's up, dB, I'll make sure my family never calls again.
So don't worry about that. That won't that won't happen.
I listen, I'll tell you what.

Speaker 5 (15:47):
Something made me go hmmm yesterday, and it made me
go hmmm earlier today.

Speaker 3 (15:52):
Now it makes me go hmmm hmm. Okay, huh.

Speaker 5 (15:56):
I was critical of Nick Sirianni and the Philadelphia Eagles.
I did it on my show yes today. I did
it on Gottlieb Show earlier today. Within the last hour,
there has been some sound that has come about where
Nick Sirianni is speaking with Sakuon Barkley on the sideline.
What I wanted the Eagles to do is to have
Sakuon Barkley get every touchdown and rub it into the
giant's face. For instead, Jalen ERTs had two one yard

(16:19):
touchdown runs. But this was an exchange and I got
at Iosam, you don't need to worry about it. Where
Nick Sirianni is with Saquon Barkley. As Sakwon Barkley is
thirteen yards shy of his all time career high. This
is what Sirianni had the conversation he had with Saquon
Barkley late in the game.

Speaker 3 (16:36):
You're thirteen yards away from your career high. I would
love for you to get that, but that's up to you.

Speaker 2 (16:41):
I just don't want.

Speaker 11 (16:43):
I like, I'm going to take out all the starters
if they don't.

Speaker 3 (16:45):
School letting meat be sure. Yeah, good, promise, I'll listen.
I wanted you to do it if you want to.

Speaker 7 (16:52):
Do it, So I rather see the young boys eat.

Speaker 3 (16:54):
So sa Kwon Barkley say, yeah, I'm not in, don't
worry about it. I'm good. I'd rather let the young boys. Yeah, yeah,
that's pretty cool.

Speaker 5 (17:01):
Yes, And I take back what I say about Nick
Sirianni in terms of that whole exchange, because I was
critically yesterday, I was critical today, and he did recognize
at least trying to get Saquon that record.

Speaker 3 (17:13):
Wow.

Speaker 4 (17:13):
Yeah, that that was a big win. And if you're
a red Zoner like Danny g and I, man, every
it felt like every time Hanson was going through the game,
Barkley was just dominating the giants there, one hundred and
seventy six yards one tuddy and could have should have
had a few more. One quick thing that made me go,
and it came from a meme because I didn't recognize it,
and we haven't been talking about it either. It says,

(17:36):
why isn't anyone making a bigger deal about Josh Allen
being the only starting QB with zero interceptions this season?

Speaker 3 (17:44):
Dude, that's wild. Twelve tds, no picks.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
Wow, that's yeah. I didn't know that either. I haven't
realized that that should be a bigger story.

Speaker 5 (17:51):
I agree Mahomes has more picks than touchdowns any year
as wild.

Speaker 1 (17:56):
Yeah, and he's leveling people. Yeah. On the show actually
official sound by all right, so we're gonna take the
rest of your phone calls eight seven seven ninety nine
on Fox. But if we don't get your phone calls again,
the most interactive show on radio, We're at Covino and

(18:16):
Rich at Fox Sports Radio. Hashtag things that make you

Hashtag the Yankees are in trouble.

Speaker 1 (18:29):
Hashtag yo it's on bro Clash the Titans. But we'll

(18:51):
you want to play next, it's eight seven to seven
ninety nine on Fox is Cavino and Rich. Now out,
let's talk about better help. What's something that scares you life?
Life is scary, right, future is scary? Having kids sometimes
that's scary. I'm like, oh jeez, what sort of advice

(19:12):

a parent. While Halloween lets us have fun with what
scares us, But what about those fears that don't involve
zombies and ghosts. Therapy is a great tool for facing

Grizzlies and Kings were the remaining three. And Buyer sweeps
the floor for his twenty first victory in this game.
This guy, this guy, right this.

Speaker 3 (29:03):
Call him the Custodian because he sweeps the floor. The mob,
even the mob was no match for Buyer.

Speaker 4 (29:09):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (29:09):
Wow, Hey, thank you, tomm You played great. Willby though,
thank you, Tom, Thank thank you. Yeah, it really held
your own good job. You know what this game teaches
you to to always go at your first instinct for real.
So I had Dallas, I had Sons, I had that
written down. I don't know why I always say this
every week as the fact checker. Don't keep it in
the tank, just give it out right aways. Some guess

(29:31):
there's no strategy.

Speaker 4 (29:32):
Play a little strategy because you know that they're going
to say this or that your strategy is never working.

Speaker 3 (29:37):
It's so stressful.

Speaker 1 (29:39):
Thank you and congratulations, Dan Bayer's time for your update.

Speaker 3 (29:44):
Stand by the great US an update Dan.

Speaker 5 (29:46):
If I if I show up tomorrow with my thumbs
and casts, you'll know why. Yes Tom and yeah, Project
Tom took care of me. Project complete. The forty nine
ers are going to be without Brandon Ayuk for the
rest of the season. The wide receivers suffered a torn
ACL and mcl and his knee, and the NFL network
says there could actually even be more damage in that
knee as he will undergo even more tests. But Brandon

(30:09):
Ayuk done for the season. We'll get to more injury
news in the NFL in just a second, but tonight
it's the Ravens and Buccaneers eight to fifteen Eastern time.
Viaave expected to go for Tampa, while the Chargers and
Cardinals play at nine o'clock Eastern time tonight in Arizona.
We've had the Monday night doubleheaders before, but this is
the first one where the game started at eight to

(30:30):
fifteen and then there's a later one. We previously had
one start at seven thirty Eastern times, so a little
different schedule tonight. Now for the rest of the injury news,

to six weeks. Seahawks wide receiver dk Metcalf week to

(30:52):
week with a spring to MCL two A back practicing
this week and good play in week eight.

Speaker 7 (30:56):
What would you say to those that are worried that
thank you might get hurt again and yell that's going
to continue.

Speaker 3 (31:02):
I appreciate your concern, I really do. I love this
game and I love it to the death of me.
That's it.

Speaker 5 (31:09):
Tony Viloa still needs to clear concussion protocol before he
can be on the field for the Dolphins in their
Week eight matchup against Arizona Saints. Head coach Tennessee Allensis
Spencer Ratler will start Week eight against the Chargers. Ramswad
receiver Cooper Cup a full participant in practice today. Some

from dB What up Dan Byer? You know the forty
nine ers.

Speaker 5 (34:56):
We talked about Brandon a Ukeving, the torn ACL and
torn m Now in a tweet from Adam Schefter. Just
a few minutes ago, we found out Deebo Samuel's been
hospitalized with pneumonia and George Kittle is dealing with a
foot injury in his day to day.

Speaker 3 (35:11):
Wow, can't get any worse. Somebody needs to sage and
their pet's heads are falling off. You know it's bad news.

Speaker 4 (35:21):
I thought my favorite team was dealing with a lot
of injury issues. And Aidan O'Connell with a broken thumb
and everything.

Speaker 5 (35:27):
There were a couple of guys that were dealing with
illnesses to Mario Douglass or the Patriots, Kenneth Walker for
the Seahawks leading up to yesterday. And then we found
out that Debo got sick, and I think we all
jumbled that together. Now we find out this is a
little difference, maybe a little bit more serious with Deebo
Sama pneumonia, you say, right, that was correct?

Speaker 1 (35:44):
Yeah, you know I caught pneumonia, and when I caught COVID,
I feel like I almost died. Seriously, you know why,
I'm not exaggerating. I had a doctor. I was in
the hospital for days. Dude, no one could visit me.
I was there, I had pneumonia, and I had a
priest come. I'm not saying that this is the case here.

(36:05):
I'm just saying how serious it could be. And he
gave me the rosaries of saying prayers. My family's like,
how you doing. I'm like, I think I'm dying. I'm serious. Yeah,
So he's sick, man, He's sick.

Speaker 3 (36:17):
Joke, especially as an athlete, anything that settles in your lungs. Yeah,
gonna take it. Takes a while to come back from that.
And again I'm not being a ramatic. I'm just telling
you my experience from that. It was horrible, but it
was a different time.

Speaker 1 (36:30):
So tonight, speaking of foosball, two four and two teams
going at it, Ravens Buccaneers, I'm excited about this one. Honestly,
I don't give a Diddley squad about the Chargers, Cardinals,
the three and two Chargers, two and four Cardinals, Dan, you.

Speaker 3 (36:45):
Don't want to see if you don't, well, I want
to see how legit the Chargers are. Yeah, no, for sure,
for sure.

Speaker 4 (36:50):
Yeah, they've been up and down just a little bit,
but the last game they look great, obviously coming off
a bye and at three and two, I want to
see if they can go to the next step.

Speaker 3 (37:00):
Cardinals.

Speaker 4 (37:00):
Cardinals have looked a little better themselves this season, but
their their record is not showing it so far.

Speaker 1 (37:05):
Yeah, exactly, And I you know, as far as the
as far as the other game, the Ravens are the
team to beat. I want to see how the Buccaneers
stand up against them again. Two four and two teams,
we'll be talking about it Manyana excited about it. Enjoy
your Monday night. And I told you a few things
I wanted to get to before we get out of here.
Check out the name Drop Show. Rich and I are

(37:25):
going to be guests on this podcast tomorrow, so look
up name Drop Show. We're gonna be on a podcast
with Chris Kirkpatrick. You're gonna get your ass kick from
in Sync and our buddy Brian mcfaden from MTV. They're
interviewing us and we're representing Fox Sports Radio. So look
up name Drop Show. They're promoting on social media. Say
something nice about us. We appreciate that. And as far

(37:47):
as the storylines of the World series, I'm gonna give
you two that stand out to me. I don't care
if you care. I'm a Yankees fan, so I care.
It's gotta be some dating storyline.

Speaker 3 (37:58):
No, but you could hate.

Speaker 1 (37:59):
It's all about this storylines, right, Why should you care?
There're two Titans Whoopedy dew? What's the underdog story? How
about just fun things to believe in, like dreams come true?
I want a storyline that doesn't appeal to a New
York Yankees fan. How about how about any vulpy there's
the viral picture of him as a little nine year
old pumpkin pie haircutted kid picking his nose like Aaron Rodgers,

(38:19):
cheering from the parade, the two thousand and nine Yankees
World Series parade, and now he's in the World Series.
So there's this side by side dude, This beautiful already
played that Vulty story on.

Speaker 3 (38:31):
How many people You're out of your mind? Dude.

Speaker 1 (38:37):
This dude is an East Coast kid who grew up
loving the Yankees, who just fantasized and dreamed like every
kid at the parade, and he's doing it on the
big stage.

Speaker 4 (38:47):
That's pretty cool, awesome. The Dodgers do have a similar
story with Jack Flaherty. He grew up a Dodgers fan
and at the trade deadline he came over to La
No No.

Speaker 3 (38:58):
Look, it's like.

Speaker 4 (38:59):
Save story life for same story. It is the same city,
hometown player, hometown player, no parade, though I don't I
don't think he was at any parade spotty, because that
would have had to been nineteen eighty eight right now.

Speaker 3 (39:11):
Now.

Speaker 4 (39:11):
Look, though, one storyline that has been going on with
the Dodgers a little bit is that they lost out
on a parade for the city in Los Angeles and
so Dave Roberts brought that up during the celebration, like, la,
you guys want a parade finally, right, same thing with
the Lakers in twenty twenty, they didn't get to throw
a parade for the city, so COVID did rob It

(39:32):
did Southern California game.

Speaker 3 (39:34):
And gave me pneumonia. I almost died.

Speaker 1 (39:37):
But put that in perspective, every kid dreams, and Volpi
is the starting short stop living that dream right now.

Speaker 3 (39:44):
Okay, that's one story.

Speaker 1 (39:46):
The other thing I thought was pretty cool is you've
noticed that the Yankees are wearing those nerdle necks as
old school nineties team mock neck turtlenecks, and people are like, yo, man,
that's kind of like the ones they wore in the
Nine Dynasty on that run in the early two thousands,
And it turns out that they are those turtlenecks, so

(40:07):
they're representing they're bringing back that old school nineties magic
that Jeter was rocking back in ninety six ninety eight era.
I thought that was kind of cool. So if you
notice the similarity, you know they're the exact same ones
out of storage. And something else I thought was pretty
cool is how the legends passed their wisdom on. I'm
sure you got your stories, Danny g about your Dodgers,

(40:29):
But when the Yankees celebrated and took that team photo
after the Alcs, the Dodgers did it last night, right
on the field, the Yankees are there taking their photo.
If you look in the back row, you see Andy
Pettitt in the photo, legendary Yankee there with the teams,

(40:49):
wearing his original turtleneck, but there to share the wisdom,
to tell these young pitchers and players like yo, I've
been here, pull your hat down, put your game face on,
relax and be the man, bring the boom. It's kind
of cool to have guys like that, veterans to share
the wisdom in your corner and on your team and
representing like that. And I'm sure you're seeing a lot
of your old Dodgers guys. You saw him yesterday. I

(41:11):
saw Earl Hirschheiser at the game, but not on the field.
But you're seeing a lot of those legends show up
to support these young guys.

Speaker 4 (41:17):
That's cool to see some Laker legends too, standing there
in the front row. Magic john saw Magic Johnson and
Michael Cooper that was awesome.

Speaker 1 (41:25):
Yeah, so it is cool to see the support from
the previous legends or just the hometown legends as we
get ready for the clash this weekend. And one last thing,
it's back to the Future day.

Speaker 3 (41:37):
Do you know why? Yeah? It was this date, but
twenty fifteen in the movie, right yeah, and.

Speaker 1 (41:43):
That's actually from Back to the Future too, right, so
they travel back to this date, my favorite one.

Speaker 3 (41:48):
Back to the future too forward to previously. So I
posed this question. You just confused me.

Speaker 1 (41:54):
If you, you know, came back from the past to
the future on this day, what would you be most
prize to hear you're like Trump worked at McDonald's, still
the vikings, what like what would be your biggest surprise?
Think about it and share with us at Covino en
Rich Until then, A rivederci baby, see in the Promised Land.
