That's up there and running all right CNR on FSR
this hour midweek major. But yeah, we got some Devin
Williams to talk about. We got some splaining to do. First,
we'd be rocking out. I got a question for everyone
(01:06):
in the room. Just a little quick icebreaker before we
move into your Yankee thought. Everyone here have siblings or
do you have any? Only children? Manca, you got siblings?
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Yes, I got two older brothers.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
Danny, g siblings, Sia, Samuel, one sister. Without getting too personal,
when was the last time you talked to your siblings?
When was the last time you texted or called one
of your brothers? MANSI within forty eight hours? Okay, cono
all the time? Family chat, Yeah, I got there's fine, exactly.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
I have a chat with themay.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Family Chat, family Chat. We have a family group chat.
Talked with some of them yesterday. We have a body
chat called the Covidiots. Only only when they need something
from me.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
But yeah, so what was last time talking about your
brother James? Probably this week, a couple of days ago.
It's nice reach out to your siblings. I say this
because the Kelsey brothers said before they did their podcast
they would go months without any communication. And it's easy
because listen, I live in La, my brother lives in Maryland,
my sister's months. The text thing and social media like,
(02:10):
there's no excuse to not shoot your brother attack, just
start a podcast. Brother, I've talked I talked. I talked
to my sister, you know, like at least once a
week or so, just to be like, Hey, what's up,
how's your kid, how's everything? My brother? Though sometimes life's busy.
We could go a month without topic. Busy. Dude, you're
on the ball doing the scroll. You can't shoot somebody
at text message. My brother is one of those guys.
(02:32):
We all have one of these friends or family members
that turns their phone off. You know that person who
turns their phone off. I know that eighty five year
old people think you still have to my phone's don't
near me. I think my brother's that guy. You know,
when someone's got like a wife that controls them. I
think my brother puts down his phone when he gets
(02:53):
home and is not allowed to touch it. I really possible,
but hey, just to point it out, say how to
your brothers and sister as your siblings, because now I
look at my kids and I'm like, and I hope
they get along when they're older.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
But the Kelsey bros, who are the most famous brothers,
let's be honest in the world right now, said before
their popularity of New Heights and before they were working
together for them it was Ozzie and jose Canseco right
that it was Billy and Calver and his baseball bath
that said, yeah, how could I forget? No, it was
your favorite brothers, oh Dandie, DeVito and Arnold. Yeah, and
way back in the Brothers Australia they were one hundred
(03:28):
and eighty five still pitching in the big leagues. Yeah.
I was gonna say, when you were talk about old
players that could still do it, they did. They could
probably still do it somehow. So anyway, say hello to
your siblings. That was a random thought, only because everyone's
thinking about Valentine's Day. But I saw that headline. I'm like,
you know what, I guess people get busy, But when
you see your kids, if your parents and you see
your kids, don't rich As the Great Peewee Herman said,
(03:50):
and I quote, what do you? I know you are,
But what am I busy doing? What he's taking his bath? Really? Really?
Your brother's so busy, dude, dude, I will call him.
Everybody's busy. The first ring goes to send a text
to somebody, the first ring goes right to boss mail
does not mean they're rejecting you. It's like the phones off,
(04:12):
like it's like, what.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Do you know that that was a rejection?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
It was off, it would go straight, but I think
a lot of times it just go straight to there
you go, you text him. It has that, you know,
when someone is like they have their phone on silent
or like, yeah, I have my phone on justifications silence.
I think the reminder here is it takes zero effort
to reach out through social media like someone's post or
(04:36):
send somebody a text. Period. And that Kelsey story is
odd to me. That's really odd. They're both because they're
so they seem so close. Now you're right, but again
they they said, not only did Travis Kelsey has Monci
sent in the update, not only months, not only is
he does say and he's going to put a time
out on this discussing his future. They talked about how
months would go by and they wouldn't talk. That's weird.
(04:58):
And now they make millions to So back to the
story of today, Pitchers and Catchers report Devin Williams of
the Yankees former brewer. Now Yankee had to shave because
that's the policy. We all know that because it's been
questioned so often, like what an outdated policy? Some players,
They reluctantly shave their beard. They don't want to do it,
but they do. But you can also leave the mustache.
(05:20):
Remember I feel like the mustache, I feel like you
and I talk about this more than any other sports
TV or radio show in the nation, but this Yankee
facial hair policy, I think is one of the more
outdated team specific rules possible. Okay, what are the Yankees
playing paying Devin Williams eight point six million dollars a
year eight point six million dollars a year. But an
(05:41):
elite closer type, an elite closer with high expectations, right,
he will be a big asset to your bullpen for sure.
That's the goal here, that's the point, that's the investment,
that's why they got it. And what does a closer
need more than most positions to be honest? Confidence, intimidation factor,
all those things. So this is why this proves that
change starts with one person. I believe Devin Williams to
(06:02):
be that one person. There's been a lot of people
along the way from your Gambis Tor, Johnny Damon's, It's
gonna be him because you can't have that weeny looking
guy on the mound late in the innings with the
lack of confidence because he doesn't have his beard. Honestly,
I'm like, if you're gonna invest eight point six million
dollars in this guy a year and you want him
(06:23):
to do his job, let him feel as confident as possible.
It doesn't make any sense to me. You know, so
at this point, if you're really serious about winning, and
that's what this guy's saying, I'm not saying this. Guys.
Devin Williams says he's most confident with his beard. He
feels like a little baby boy at a place without
the beard. Let him be him. I know that sounds stupid,
and why is all his confidence in his beard? Anyway?
(06:45):
If that makes him feel cooler, It's like what Andy
Pettit would pull his hat down. You put that intimidation
factor on. Dave Stuart was known for that. Let the
dude do his thing, let him be confident, let him
be lights out. You gotta let him grow his beard back.
He looks so if you were facing him, would you
want to face that little baby boy or the guy
with the beard? Here see the pictures then this is
(07:06):
years ago at the photoshops and the actual real pictures
of James Harden and then James Softon. Yeah you don't
want to play James Harden. You want to play James Softon.
Yeah you whoop James Softon's ask James Softon's not intimidating.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
Now.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
The crazy part about this is that Cavino came to
work today with a parody. He found some little fun
video on social media. Well, the premise is this based
on the beard, right, because you see what a difference
it makes. This guy's face was shortened like a good
three to four inches. Not that he's not handsome. He
still looks handsome. He just looks like a little baby boy,
(07:39):
and the whole shape of his face is different. This
goes back to a Jim Gaffigan joke where he says
that the poor man's face lift is growing the beard.
The beard is the poor man's facelift. It really is.
Because it makes you wonder what's going on under there? Danny,
I've known you three plus years now here and a
half years. He doesn't even know what's going on into there?
(08:01):
Do you even know what's going on under there?
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (08:03):
I have pictures from high school, But Danny, since I
was a while ago, since I've known you, Danny. You
have a beard and a mustache. You got Spot beard.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
I was Spot shaved his beard off like last year
or something, and I was like, you look different, man. Yeah,
but he didn't shave shaven completely razor to ski.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (08:22):
He he went like full scruff, so he didn't shave shade,
and that like altered my perception of Spot.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
But this post is a question too, So this isn't
just about the Yankees and one man making the change,
because that's just just my theory. And I think that's
your hope as a fan. You want your players on
your team to feel as confident as possible, right, But
you as a person also want to feel as confident
as possible when you're making these choices about your facial
hair and how you look. You know, as we approached
(08:50):
the day of Love and everyone wants to put their
best foot forward, we have a question for you. Well,
you want people to feel comfortable. I mean, I think
the tech world made a big step in the right
direction this think of all those like you know, Silicon
Valley type of folks where you know, business casual became
more of a thing. It's like, hey, we're guys just
making apps on a computer. What what why are we
wearing suits? And it became like, you know, you would
(09:12):
dress like one of these rich techn Wall Street.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
There's even some old school churches who have recently gone
away from you have to have clean cut look at
church and allow beards now, so you know what the
Yankees to still be doing.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
This is real old school. It's real old school. And
you know, some guys have negative chin. You know, some
guys there, they don't know they can't fold towels, you know,
because they're missing a chin. It's a death perception issue.
So they grow a beard and it works for them,
and it gives them a swag and a spring in
their steps.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
At least meet the players in the middle, like, Okay,
you can have a beard, but it needs to be
trimmed and well cast.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
That's the way.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
You don't, I get it. You don't want to look
like a caveman, you don't want to be unprofessional. But
let the guys still have their own personality without a doubt.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Actually, if you let a mustache happen, yeah, that's what
I'm saying. You let you do, let facial hair happen,
but just not a beard.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Yeah, they need you to nail it. There should be
a compromise where it's like, it's just gotta lak groom.
You can't look like Kevin Malar of the Red Sox
and the If you don't have a good beard, you
can't do it. Who is the dude, black black man?
Speaker 6 (10:19):
You know, you're the guy in the Phillies, who's got
that Jason Worth the Marsh, Brandon Mars. It looks like
a Marsh guy from the Marsh.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
So you can't look at someone from Duck Dynasty, but
you could find something in between, right, Especially, Let's be honest,
a lot of these Latino players are as groomed as
could be. They got the barber on standby every day.
Their faith is tight. You're telling that guy he can't
have the big, poppy, precision beard. Yeah, you're taking away there.
They're you know, in a way, they're confidence right in
(10:46):
a way. So the question to the everyday fella, though,
as we get older, you're really faced with a decision.
Hilarious to me, and the question is do you shave
and look younger and worse or do you let the
beard grow in and look older and better. Let me
say one more time, do you look younger and worse,
(11:10):
younger and worse, or older and better?
Speaker 5 (11:14):
Do you want to look younger and worse older that's
got the hurt?
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Or younger and it's kind of a curse. Yup the
former or laser. But you have got to make this choice.
What's your choice? What are you doing? You took younger
and worse? I don't know. Do you wanna look younger
and worse? Yes? Do you wanna look younger and worse?
Devin Williams, do you wanna look younger and worse? One half?
(11:45):
Do you want to look and worse?
Speaker 5 (11:48):
Older?
Speaker 1 (11:48):
And that's got the hurt? We only played that younger
so that it's now stuck in your head for the
rest of the test. Catchy some TikTok ins.
Speaker 7 (12:00):
Guy Sam Sing, know that it's not just some guy
you got to give credit to play a song.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
It's Jesse blocked in right on social media, so props
to him. Jesse blocked in. He's an older fella. It
looks like Mandy Patankin actually right, And it's the it's
the question of do you want to look younger and worse?
Meaning shavier? Beard shows himself clean, shave you look younger,
but you look worse, right, because you got all this
fat face. Yeah, yeah, you look like Dave bloated. Devin
(12:26):
Williams looks like a like Mack and me with a
shaved beard or older and better. You know, you grow
that beard back, you look older, distinguished and older is
not necessarily good, but you do look better for whatever.
He might have some he might have some gray in there, yeah,
because sometimes older is kind of bad, but it is better.
(12:48):
Like imagine Draymond Green without the beard. Right, So it's
does he shave and look younger and worse because he's
still gonna look old, but shaved and chubby probably or
older with the beard and the gray, but still he
looks better for some reason. Yeah, it's a weird choice
that guys have to make. Picture Lebron James, right, he's
(13:09):
got a little gray coming in. But Lebron with the
beard probably more handsome look, but he looks older. If
Lebron went clean shaven, he'd probably look thirty something. You
know what happens. Let me look like we look wa
Let me put it in Steve Cavino terms for you, monsie,
you're looking right at his if I shave my face
clean shaven, right, I got this big fat face and
two chins coming out right, it looks like and then
(13:30):
he looks like Ernie. And then the scruff starts to
grow in and it looks a little grayish. So I
look younger and worse, or or I have the scruff
going on. It makes me look a little older, but better.
It gives your face definition. Ah. So it's the choice
that we all are at. And I think Devin Williams
is making a poor, poor choice right now, and unfortunately
(13:52):
it's not his decision. He looks younger and worse. Truthfully,
right right now, my stubbles a little too thin. I
feel like I'm right now on the border of looking
younger and worse.
Speaker 8 (14:04):
I feel like we're about to do aerobics'.
Speaker 6 (14:08):
Late nineties early two thousands. Man, like a gun too,
some gunment agency put out like a commercial or something.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
No, but it is. It's a question, man. It really sucks,
and I feel bad for Devin Williams. But the point is, well,
what choice would you make? Guys? As Black Sheep said,
the choice is yours. But for Devin Williams it's not.
The Yankees are making him do this, and he lost
all his swag is confidence and his intimidation factor, which
I think is necessary for the Yankees' closer at this point.
Speaker 7 (14:39):
I feel like we say this every time the Yankees
acquire a new player. Yeah, but this is very big
aff When are they gonna give it up? Very are
gonna stop?
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Every time? The closer position comes with an intimidation factor? Right,
Think of the Mets. They got all this spectacle, they
have horn sections, the lights go out. You got this
dude coming out with like baby boy do with his
stupid face. Now no one cares about that. He has
to little better. Yeah, it's gonna come out to like
the bubble guppy state or something. Yeah, exactly, Yeah, he
(15:04):
comes back to uh what's that?
Speaker 5 (15:07):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (15:12):
That is the lamest look under pets. Do you want
to look younger or worse? Er, older than better? That's
the question for you to make or for you to answer.
Fox Sports Nation. I think Fox. From the women I've asked,
I've heard a lot of answers, And Moncie, I don't
know if you agree with this. A lot of women
are answering they rather their dude look a little older
(15:33):
and better more a little like a lot of women.
Most women don't want most women don't want their grown
man with the clean shaven look at you know, can
I can? I give a hip to the Fox Sports
Radio Nation. My girlfriend doesn't like the facial hair. That's
why I was rock and clean shaved for a while, right,
(15:54):
But then I realized this is what every guy needs
to know. They're trying to take you out of the
real Yeah, that puffy face, she's trying to take you
out of the game.
Speaker 6 (16:04):
Well, like there's guys who do have a clean shaven face,
like Don Draper, John Hamm. That works for him, That
works really well.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
You know what you think? Beard John ham No, but
with a beard, I don't even know what he'd look
like like. He is a good beard. That's another thing.
You don't have a good beard, don't have a bear,
can barely grow the beard in, but people like it.
Speaker 5 (16:23):
Let me.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Let me give you John Hamm.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Is one of the most handsome guys out there. Example,
I'll give you a handsome guy with a beard, and
tell me if you think he would be as cool
without Megan from The Walking Dead Jeffrey Dean Morgan. That
guy with the beard looks like you mean Javier.
Speaker 7 (16:44):
Because I've seen him. I've seen Javy er Bardem So
I just did the same guy, not the same guy.
He would look Kendrick Perkins. Kendrick Perkins right now, that
beard off, Take that beard off. He's the He's the
biggest wienie. And I don't care what he says. There's
this void space under change. Can't even see.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Yeah, what's going on up there? Kendrick Perkins.
Speaker 9 (17:03):
No, but yeah, he would not be intimidating without that.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
Dude from the office. Yeah, we like Stanley. Yeah, he
looks like Carl Winslow without that beard. With the beard,
I'm like, oh, stop it. So do you want to
look younger and worse or older and better? Older and better?
I do that? Ercle uh Kurt in Pennsylvania, what's up, buddy? Stop?
Speaker 4 (17:27):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (17:27):
What's going on? Guys?
Speaker 1 (17:28):
I love your show? Thanks, thank you man. You can
be singing that song all night. By the way, Yeah,
i'd stop the guy talk show.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
I'm just really surprised you guys haven't played the Simpson
Baseball episode clip of Sideburns yet.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
It's a classic. I do know it, man, but look
I get it. There was a time and a place.
It's a different world. Now the world has changed. A
lot man, like a lot since Don Mattingly in the eighties.
Do those side burns and that in that very timely
so great, But you also have to realize too that man,
(18:10):
it's twenty twenty five. You can't expect these especially Richardy
said it, these young Latin players, these Dominican dudes to shave,
and you want them to play for your team. I
know that sounds like petty and ridiculous when you're paying
them millions of dollars. But I can make millions of
dollars somewhere else where. I don't have to like look
(18:30):
like a mutant just to play on your team. And
can I you know who said that. Alex Radugo said
that recently too. He's like, yo, I'll go play for
another team where I could be myself. Now. I get it,
making millions of dollars is a priority for a young man.
But take yourself out of the bullpen for a second.
Take yourself out of the bullpen. I don't know if
Devin Williams is married or single, whatever the case may be,
(18:52):
but you thinkd out, but you think thank you, monci.
Do you think Devin Williams wants to go out on
the town with his boys if he's single or I
think his wife if he's married. Do you think that's
the look he would choose, because A clearly he had
a girlfriend. Yeah, he saw his face today. I have
a question, So tattoos are allowed, right? Yeah? What if
(19:13):
you got a beard tattoo? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
I was wondering that dried on, like just to spite them.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
I'm a dry on every day.
Speaker 6 (19:20):
It's just like you did, like a he a beard
so where it wasn't permanent. People get tattoos of a hairline. Honestly,
this is my prediction.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
It's gonna be such a thing as the picture's surface
today and everyone's gonna be making fun of him. And
he already stated that he had he's more confident with
his beard. It's gonna come down to a compromise. Like
Danny g said, that's my prediction. I I you heard
it here on Fox Sports Radio. The Yankees will eventually
allow a maintained scruff, a maintained beard moving forward. That's
(19:49):
my guess. After this, I have a question something like that.
It sounds so ridiculous, but would that be in a
press conference? Yeah? Probably? Like how ridiculous does that sound.
But after you know, one hundred plus years of Yankee legacy,
will there have to be some type of house time
runner coming for and be like, I'm amade her announcements
to make for the Yankees after you know, after one
(20:11):
hundreds of the years of this organization, Because like, it's
an old organization, so there's old rules and traditions, right,
So yeah, this one needs to be update. That's all
simple as that. What do you say all the time, Rach,
I'll give you credit. Sometimes tradition is making the same
mistake over and over and over again. I think it's ridiculous, Yankees.
It's not the time of Babe Ruth anymore. There's two
things the Yankees need to adjust. One of them is
the facial hair stuff because it's lame. And secondly, I
(20:34):
love it because I do admire the history of the
pinstripes and everything. But like the fact that the Yankees
won't do a city Connect Jersey or yeah, it's.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Like, come on, it's like, come on, it's time to
be fun.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
Yeah, give us some options to fans.
Speaker 7 (20:47):
And clearly this tradition isn't making you that great, right
right at.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
One point, maybe it did, right, and maybe it did,
but now it's it's not. Devin Williams does have a girlfriend,
and it's funny that we're talking about his beard. Sports
Keida has a whole story, Maggie, bad doc.
Speaker 9 (21:02):
I'm gonna guess. And they've been together since twenty fifteen,
twenty sixteen. And there's a picture of them from twenty fifteen,
twenty sixteen, and he has no beard. Oh interesting, Yeah,
and it's it's his profile and he looks like a baby.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
But now it was ten years ago he was a man.
He's a man.
Speaker 7 (21:18):
Well, my wife has said to me, like distressed, never
to clean get clean shaven, because I look like a
you know, a drake.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
I look like I look like I look like a Yeah,
I look like your crew legendly all right, So that's
the updates, allegedly. Sorry. Also on Devin Williams again, pictures
and catchers. That positive is here here is that Hey,
baseball is underway about that and to piggyback that point
about the city connect Jerseys. A lot of sweet spring
(21:49):
training uniforms I'm seeing on a lot of teams. So
he listen, Baseball's trying their best to do everything to
connect to the fans. And I think a lot of
teams debuting some sweet new alternate jerseys and spring training gear.
So hey, gear up and speaking of gearing up, spot
midweek Major, get that all geared up? What we tell
you that, Travis Matthew. Whether you're teeing off, heading into
(22:11):
the office, or kicking back to watch the big game,
Travis Matthew has you covered. Versatile apparel designed to make
you look and feel your best wherever life takes you.
So if you're ready to elevate your every day gotta
grow a nice scruff, not too sloppy, not a hobo beard,
nice sweet scruff, and get that Travis Matthew from staying
in or heading out the cloud. Waffle Crew fits perfectly.
(22:33):
This is a nice fitted shirt. I have one of these.
It's you know it's it's it's not as thick as
a sweater like you said. It's said waffle crue. What
do you say waffle crew? You're not talking about when
we all went to the waffle house. Well, I want
to be in that waffle Crew too, not too bagging,
not too tight, just right. It's a best selling it's
a best selling product from their cloud collection. They got
(22:54):
quarter zips it's that if that's your style, if you
like that nice little pull over quarter zip. They got
great shoes. We talked about it, not to sneak. Got
great over shirts like jackets and hats, and it's not
just golf stuff anymore. And that's why I've been rocking

(23:36):
Mandically get me to those hide turns. Every girl is
crazy about a sharp dressed man with a sweet maintained beard,
not like the dudes from zz Top. But there is
a compromise, and I think that's the future of the Yankees.
(24:01):
And like Danny g said, before we move on, you
know how much added swag the Yankees would have if
they came in rocking their their own little style of
facial hair that they would normally have every day. I
think we're gonna see it thanks to Devin Williams. If not,
let it start here on Fox Sports Radio. Let it
(24:22):
hit the press, hit the press, Cavino said, so and Rich.
Now look at the clock. It's midweek. It's time.
Speaker 5 (24:32):
Covino and Rich get you over the middle of the
week where mid Week Major. I love that we throw
sports and pop culture headlines and topics at the fellas
and it's like the kids say, that's som We definitely
see it. Our score mid Week Major.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Oh yeah, are you guys ready?
Speaker 5 (24:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Does everybody go say hey, y'all say man.
Speaker 3 (24:59):
It's hey, hey, We're about to give spotty at eight
full minute, it's like a whole the segment.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
When you hear the warns, you know you've made it
to the middle of the week.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Before we hand things over to the number one and
only host of the segment, we roll the two Big
Red Love Dice the main studio.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
See who goes first. I just rolled it seven in
a ritual six really seven got six That means Cove
gets the first take.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
And now, ladies and gentlemen, the most famous person besides
Judy Bloom from Scotch Plains New Jersey spotty boy.
Speaker 7 (25:34):
Hey guys, we have all the Super Bowl stuff today.
I know it's kind of old news, but it's all
the pop culture stuffrom that. So I'll talk about it.
But let me let me start with the story that
broke today. So you may see the viral video of
John Rocker and Patrick Mahomes seniors it's embarrassing ex changing
words on Bourbon Street in New Orleans ahead of the
Mahomes the second losing to the Eagles. Well, Barstool's Dave
(25:57):
Portnoy announced today that the two former emb pictures we'll
face off in Barstools Rough and Rowty event on April
eighteenth and Wheeling, Virginia. The quote beef on Bourbon Street,
as Portnard called it, will headline the event. People are
now unclear because of the video it's saying. It looks
stages are unclear if it was staged to promote this,
(26:18):
but because it was awfully quick to come to fruition
after this viral thing this past weekend. Either way, I'm
sure Patrick Mahomes will be there nice and proud watching
this event.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
Midweek are Major Major, I don't know if he will sarcasm.
I'm kind of embarrassed about the whole thing.
Speaker 10 (26:35):
Just played the worst game of my life, and now
I got my dad embarrassing me more like sort of
like insult to injury, like putting salt on the wound.
Patrick Mahomes, is your son, Stop embarrassing the kid. You're
fighting John Rocker on the streets of New Orleans and
now at a barstool event. You don't need to do this.
(26:55):
Come on, Pat Mahomes, don't do that to your son.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
I'm just catching win to this. What is this? How
John Marker didn't embarrass himself, it was someone else. It
was well John Roker. And honestly, what I saw was
John Rocker approaching Pat Mahomes on the street saying what man,
I thought we were cool. I thought we were boys,
and Pat Mahomes was not having it. John Rocker threw
(27:19):
a drink at him. Now they're fighting. I think, though,
I think the whole thing's embarrassed. So Midweek Major I
said Major, because that's Holmes his dad. I was saying,
how'd you feel if your dad was doing You can't
be the only one that doesn't know the story, So
I'm glad we explained that it was the week of
the Super Bowl. To reiterate one last time, Mahomes Senior
and Rocker had an altercation on Bourbon Street out of
(27:41):
the game. They had to be separated before the game,
before the game, before the had the week like when
everyone's partying on Bourbon Street. So now I think it's
major as well. I mean, it's the best player in
the NFL. How did John Rocker come into play? This
is it?
Speaker 6 (27:56):
If it's not? If it if it is staged? Why
But if it's not, then I guess that makes no sense.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
I saw John Rockers sort of jacked, but he looks
like he's got a limp, and Jack's Jack by the
limp he's jacked for like he's still very built. He's
what you're saying.
Speaker 5 (28:11):
And then you.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
Got Pat Mahomes Senior who's slender, and it's just embarrassing.
You'll have time to give us a tell the tape later, don't.
I will watch it if it happens, And you know
what I think, You also have to give portnoy credit.
You know, barstool, it's who is it gonna watch? You're
not gonna watch John Rocker and mahomes dad fight. It's ridiculous, brother,
(28:32):
Why don't we watch a bum fight? I mean it
sort of feels like that, right yeah again? Can you
said it?
Speaker 5 (28:38):
So?
Speaker 1 (28:38):
I don't want to reiterate it, but it's Patrick Mahomes.
Why is his family embarrassing his His brother used to
and that his dad like the guy seems like so
well adjusted. Him and Britney are fantastic. He seems happy
when he's not losing. He's a new dad too, Like,
come on, yeah, grandpa's fighting John Rocker sounds like the
Royal Tenenbaumbs.
Speaker 7 (28:58):
Oh Jesus right next, squeeze this one in Eagles Cooper
to Jean had a stellar pick in this weekend Super Bowl,
and the congrats have poured in, including from fellow IOWA
alumni Caitlyn Clark.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Clark if we know, huge Chiefs fan.
Speaker 7 (29:13):
She was seen attending the game with none other than
Taylor Swift, but she said to Gene message after the championship.
Jean said, actually ahead of the draft that he could
beat he was asked, obviously, you know that he could
beat Clark in a one on one game. Of course
he could, I know, But he's since changed saying that
he respects what Clarke has done for women's basketball in
the University of Iowa in general, but was really happy
(29:35):
and proud that he actually got that nod from the
WNBA Superstar Midweek or major major.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
She's the biggest star to come from that school, the
biggest star maybe arguably in sports right now. So for
her to acknowledge him on his birthday with a big
moment that he had, I think that's great. Yeah, I mean,
I think it's major. So what I think is weak
is the fact that Cooper Dejene backed off saying that
he could beat Caitlyn Clark one on one. I bet,
(30:02):
I bet my home on Cooper de Gene. He's a
grown man. She is a woman. Stone men and women
competing against him, but he would he would annihilate her
one on one. The fact that he had a back
off for political correctness reasons annoys me. I just want
to keep it all. You think Kim leccard beat a
man in basketball that played college basketball.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
I'm really in my eyes that you were offended.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
By all of that. Good there, good one. He's just
rolling her eyes at your face. Right, be guess I'm
a little more clean shave in the stop it alright, younger.
Over to the halftime show. A couple stories out of that.
Speaker 7 (30:36):
So Kendrick Lamar, as you said, officially the most viewed
halftime show.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
Uh.
Speaker 7 (30:40):
And despite heading into halftime with the twenty four to
zero lead over the Chiefs, players on the Eagles did
not sneak out to watch the halftime show. Jylex Hunt
was actually stopped it. Oh wait, Jelex Salox Hunt, Okay,
Jylex Hunt, Yeah, it's back ship player Jalx reveal, Yeah,
I know, that's what it says, reveal that the team
remained laser focused during halftime, making sure they didn't blow
their lead in the second half, saying they just watch
(31:01):
it on YouTube. Actually, and a fun stat the NFL's
official video of the performance of Kendrick Lamar racked up
more views in one day than Usher's performance did.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
When it was posted a year ago. So that thing,
it just keeps blowing up and growing. Midweek or major,
it's very major. People can't stop talking about how they
feel about the halftime show, much like everything in our country,
very divided on this, and I think we're getting extra
views on it because people are trying to figure out
why anyone else could possibly like it, like what did
I miss? What did I miss? And you know what,
(31:31):
we're gonna be talking about this tomorrow, like who do
we want or who do we think should be headlining
the Super Bowl halftime show next year? But ratings are up.
I think the whole thing's major. One hundred and thirty
three million people tuned in. Yeah, we talked about it
at length. Yeah, I think it's major. I think it's
just a little former, you know, additional proof to backup
(31:54):
of Comino said, everyone thinks their opinion matters so much,
and I promise you it doesn't. Everyone thinks their opinion
of like I loved it, oh I hated it? Go
on social media. Everyone thinks they have like the final word,
like it matters. One hundred and thirty three million people watch,
it doesn't matter what you think.
Speaker 7 (32:12):
One last one or no, Excu's the one last one
still on the halftime show. Maybe a reason for some
of the views might have to do with Serena Williams
Tennis great Straa Williams addressing her viral appearance during the
halftime show and says it's apparently been thirteen years in
the making. You may have seen the video of floating
around of her after winning gold at the twenty twelve Olympics.
So she said when Compton born Kendrick Lamar reach out
(32:33):
to her because she's also from Compton, she jumped at
the chance to be able to dance in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
I know there's that added layer that she dated Drake.
Speaker 7 (32:41):
And the song not like Us as a distrack on Drake,
but she's saying it was really just about connecting with
her Compton fellow Compton native, and she said she practiced
hard for her ten to fifteen second appearance.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
Side story, I don't know if you heard. Steven A.
Smith came out since saying that it's bashomous, that far bad.
She would damn damned if my wife was dancing to
a distract to her. If you've but if you're with
somebody and that they're that concerned about their ex like,
(33:14):
come on, man, that's embarrassing. I think there's a little
level of embarrassment there. She looked good. She looked good,
but like you're dancing about your ex. I'd be a
little insulted too if I was the new guy. I mean,
you know, I mean you know the n w A lyrics, right,
I mean straight out of Compton, Crazy Mother Effron, Dame Serena.
It's right right, I mean we all talked to that.
All right, thank you, thanksbody. Midweek Major, Let's go to
(33:37):
Moncey Belon. She walked her way into the studio. I't
say gang names. I just looked that up. Spot was
a do you know that you can't say gang names
on the radio? TV? Interesting? I did not know your
training or pay attention to have said those words.
Speaker 8 (33:57):
The Bucks are going to be without Damian Lillard today
as they take on Minnesota. He's still gonna be available
for all the All Star events that he committed to,
the three point Shooting Contest and the game on Sunday.
Pelican's wingman Herb Jones will be out for the remainder
of the season after undergoing surgery to repair a torn
rotator cuff. In the NFL, Colorado quarterback George Sanders revealed
(34:20):
that his first top two thirty visits with NFL teams
are going to be with the Browns and the Giants,
who hold the second and third overall picks in the
upcoming draft. Ohio State is finalizing a deal to make
veteran NFL coach Matt Patricia the school's new defensive coordinator.
Angels third baseman Anthony Rindain hates baseball. He's having hip
surgery and is expected to miss a significant amount of time.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
He just doesn't play. Joe. What I don't get about
this though? What he had all off season to figure
it out. He hates baseball, So just right now he's like,
you know what I think now I need the surgery.
Speaker 9 (34:50):
He's played two hundred and five games, he's missed four
hundred and thirty eight.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
That's the weakest signing of all times? What are we doing?
Speaker 3 (34:57):
Like?
Speaker 2 (34:57):
You just admit you hit?

They're the Teal Team. So so far Covino on spot
have come up with Teal Team six or the Teeler Swifts.
Speaker 9 (38:32):
Teeler Swifts is cute.
Speaker 1 (38:34):
Girls like Teals. Well, they're called the Swifts right because
they're a little girls softball team. The Swifts they're quick
and they're swift. The Tealer the Teeler Swifts because they're
rocking toal. I like that. So let us know at
Rich David, because all the girls like I don't know
teal penguins, sharks steal this? Are you the color of
the famous nineties hornets? We got to it's black and teals.
(38:54):
We almost look like the Marlins to be honest, like
the old school Marlins. Heeler's nation. Yeah, he could go
awquall Heal or no Teal Teeler. That's good. The Aqua Barbie,
thet barbie send us your ideas. Do Riches work for him? Yeah?
Rich thinks that we're too dumb to pick up on
his Tom Sawyer antics. Hey can we don't want to
(39:14):
come to my house in paint and I got pizza? Yeah.
Rich always wants to make you do his work. So anyway,
it's a lot of fun. You want to paint. Speaking
of your teeler Swifts, Taylor Swift is in the news.
Saquon Barkley said, I remember they showed Taylor Swift on
the jumbo Tron. You have the sound, and she got
boo I don't get it, so says, I don't get it.
(39:40):
She's there supporting her significant other, and she's made the
game bigger. I'm not going to deny it. One hundred
and twenty six million tuned in him. That was part
of it. It really was whether you want to believe
that or not. So she has added a lot to
the game.
Speaker 3 (39:57):
If we all blew at the same time, we can reenact.
Ready wait, wait, one, two three?
Speaker 1 (40:07):
All right?
Speaker 4 (40:11):
Oh, I remember that they showed her on the jumble
chron and she got booed. I don't get it. I
don't get why she she was getting hate there.
Speaker 1 (40:20):
I didn't like that.
Speaker 4 (40:21):
Yeah, I didn't like that porting her significant out there.
And she's made the game bigger. You know, we're all
about and football. We're all about, you know, how can
we expand the game and make it more internationally? And
we're traveling to Brazil and we're traveling the next to go,
and so we're trying to expand the game, and you
know her being a part of it is only helping it.
So I don't I don't get to the slide that
(40:43):
she would getting.
Speaker 1 (40:43):
Saquon Barkley making some great points and he's speaking the truth.
Hatey hay seriously, and she was like, what's going on here?
She didn't even know what's going on. So for today,
we're going to add her to the list of other
people that get unwarranted, unnecessary hate, and that list consists
of Guy Fieri yep, go back, Dane Cook. Dane Cook. Yeah,
(41:03):
think about it, Guy Fierti. Everybody hates on him for
no reason because he has funny shirt. He's the nicest
guy of all the giggling friends rocks. I don't care
if anybody says everybody hates on him, I'll throw Creed
in there. They get a lot of under oh Creed nickelback,
Guy Fiertti, Dane Cook. Who else.
Speaker 3 (41:21):
Let's take it all the way back to when we
were kids. Millie Vanilli, Now everybody lip syncs.
Speaker 1 (41:25):
Serious come unwarranted hate.
Speaker 6 (41:28):
Yeah, that wasn't even their voices though, that was somebody
yeah album though.
Speaker 1 (41:32):
Uh, it's a tragedy for me to see the dream is. Oh,
come on, bro, I don't care who sings it. Nobody
danced to it like they did. So who do you
want to add to that list of people that get
unwarranted hate? Because Taylor Swift, that was Unwarrantn't you when
you say that made me think of like a school dancer.
You couldn't touch the person you're dancing with, arms out,
(41:55):
but the beach ball which that song came back too. Man, Well, hey,

That's up there and running all right CNR on FSR
this hour midweek major. But yeah, we got some Devin
Williams to talk about. We got some splaining to do. First,
we'd be rocking out. I got a question for everyone
(01:06):
in the room. Just a little quick icebreaker before we
move into your Yankee thought. Everyone here have siblings or
do you have any? Only children? Manca, you got siblings?
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Yes, I got two older brothers.
Speaker 1 (01:19):
Danny, g siblings, Sia, Samuel, one sister. Without getting too personal,
when was the last time you talked to your siblings?
When was the last time you texted or called one
of your brothers? MANSI within forty eight hours? Okay, cono
all the time? Family chat, Yeah, I got there's fine, exactly.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
I have a chat with themay.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Family Chat, family Chat. We have a family group chat.
Talked with some of them yesterday. We have a body
chat called the Covidiots. Only only when they need something
from me.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
But yeah, so what was last time talking about your
brother James? Probably this week, a couple of days ago.
It's nice reach out to your siblings. I say this
because the Kelsey brothers said before they did their podcast
they would go months without any communication. And it's easy
because listen, I live in La, my brother lives in Maryland,
my sister's months. The text thing and social media like,
(02:10):
there's no excuse to not shoot your brother attack, just
start a podcast. Brother, I've talked I talked. I talked
to my sister, you know, like at least once a
week or so, just to be like, Hey, what's up,
how's your kid, how's everything? My brother? Though sometimes life's busy.
We could go a month without topic. Busy. Dude, you're
on the ball doing the scroll. You can't shoot somebody
at text message. My brother is one of those guys.
(02:32):
We all have one of these friends or family members
that turns their phone off. You know that person who
turns their phone off. I know that eighty five year
old people think you still have to my phone's don't
near me. I think my brother's that guy. You know,
when someone's got like a wife that controls them. I
think my brother puts down his phone when he gets
(02:53):
home and is not allowed to touch it. I really possible,
but hey, just to point it out, say how to
your brothers and sister as your siblings, because now I
look at my kids and I'm like, and I hope
they get along when they're older.
Speaker 4 (03:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:05):
But the Kelsey bros, who are the most famous brothers,
let's be honest in the world right now, said before
their popularity of New Heights and before they were working
together for them it was Ozzie and jose Canseco right
that it was Billy and Calver and his baseball bath
that said, yeah, how could I forget? No, it was
your favorite brothers, oh Dandie, DeVito and Arnold. Yeah, and
way back in the Brothers Australia they were one hundred
(03:28):
and eighty five still pitching in the big leagues. Yeah.
I was gonna say, when you were talk about old
players that could still do it, they did. They could
probably still do it somehow. So anyway, say hello to
your siblings. That was a random thought, only because everyone's
thinking about Valentine's Day. But I saw that headline. I'm like,
you know what, I guess people get busy, But when
you see your kids, if your parents and you see
your kids, don't rich As the Great Peewee Herman said,
(03:50):
and I quote, what do you? I know you are,
But what am I busy doing? What he's taking his bath? Really? Really?
Your brother's so busy, dude, dude, I will call him.
Everybody's busy. The first ring goes to send a text
to somebody, the first ring goes right to boss mail
does not mean they're rejecting you. It's like the phones off,
(04:12):
like it's like, what.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Do you know that that was a rejection?
Speaker 1 (04:16):
It was off, it would go straight, but I think
a lot of times it just go straight to there
you go, you text him. It has that, you know,
when someone is like they have their phone on silent
or like, yeah, I have my phone on justifications silence.
I think the reminder here is it takes zero effort
to reach out through social media like someone's post or
(04:36):
send somebody a text. Period. And that Kelsey story is
odd to me. That's really odd. They're both because they're
so they seem so close. Now you're right, but again
they they said, not only did Travis Kelsey has Monci
sent in the update, not only months, not only is
he does say and he's going to put a time
out on this discussing his future. They talked about how
months would go by and they wouldn't talk. That's weird.
(04:58):
And now they make millions to So back to the
story of today, Pitchers and Catchers report Devin Williams of
the Yankees former brewer. Now Yankee had to shave because
that's the policy. We all know that because it's been
questioned so often, like what an outdated policy? Some players,
They reluctantly shave their beard. They don't want to do it,
but they do. But you can also leave the mustache.
(05:20):
Remember I feel like the mustache, I feel like you
and I talk about this more than any other sports
TV or radio show in the nation, but this Yankee
facial hair policy, I think is one of the more
outdated team specific rules possible. Okay, what are the Yankees
playing paying Devin Williams eight point six million dollars a
year eight point six million dollars a year. But an
(05:41):
elite closer type, an elite closer with high expectations, right,
he will be a big asset to your bullpen for sure.
That's the goal here, that's the point, that's the investment,
that's why they got it. And what does a closer
need more than most positions to be honest? Confidence, intimidation factor,
all those things. So this is why this proves that
change starts with one person. I believe Devin Williams to
(06:02):
be that one person. There's been a lot of people
along the way from your Gambis Tor, Johnny Damon's, It's
gonna be him because you can't have that weeny looking
guy on the mound late in the innings with the
lack of confidence because he doesn't have his beard. Honestly,
I'm like, if you're gonna invest eight point six million
dollars in this guy a year and you want him
(06:23):
to do his job, let him feel as confident as possible.
It doesn't make any sense to me. You know, so
at this point, if you're really serious about winning, and
that's what this guy's saying, I'm not saying this. Guys.
Devin Williams says he's most confident with his beard. He
feels like a little baby boy at a place without
the beard. Let him be him. I know that sounds stupid,
and why is all his confidence in his beard? Anyway?
(06:45):
If that makes him feel cooler, It's like what Andy
Pettit would pull his hat down. You put that intimidation
factor on. Dave Stuart was known for that. Let the
dude do his thing, let him be confident, let him
be lights out. You gotta let him grow his beard back.
He looks so if you were facing him, would you
want to face that little baby boy or the guy
with the beard? Here see the pictures then this is
(07:06):
years ago at the photoshops and the actual real pictures
of James Harden and then James Softon. Yeah you don't
want to play James Harden. You want to play James Softon.
Yeah you whoop James Softon's ask James Softon's not intimidating.
Speaker 5 (07:18):
Now.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
The crazy part about this is that Cavino came to
work today with a parody. He found some little fun
video on social media. Well, the premise is this based
on the beard, right, because you see what a difference
it makes. This guy's face was shortened like a good
three to four inches. Not that he's not handsome. He
still looks handsome. He just looks like a little baby boy,
(07:39):
and the whole shape of his face is different. This
goes back to a Jim Gaffigan joke where he says
that the poor man's face lift is growing the beard.
The beard is the poor man's facelift. It really is.
Because it makes you wonder what's going on under there? Danny,
I've known you three plus years now here and a
half years. He doesn't even know what's going on into there?
(08:01):
Do you even know what's going on under there?
Speaker 2 (08:03):
Oh?
Speaker 1 (08:03):
I have pictures from high school, But Danny, since I
was a while ago, since I've known you, Danny. You
have a beard and a mustache. You got Spot beard.
Speaker 6 (08:12):
I was Spot shaved his beard off like last year
or something, and I was like, you look different, man. Yeah,
but he didn't shave shaven completely razor to ski.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (08:22):
He he went like full scruff, so he didn't shave shade,
and that like altered my perception of Spot.
Speaker 1 (08:28):
But this post is a question too, So this isn't
just about the Yankees and one man making the change,
because that's just just my theory. And I think that's
your hope as a fan. You want your players on
your team to feel as confident as possible, right, But
you as a person also want to feel as confident
as possible when you're making these choices about your facial
hair and how you look. You know, as we approached
(08:50):
the day of Love and everyone wants to put their
best foot forward, we have a question for you. Well,
you want people to feel comfortable. I mean, I think
the tech world made a big step in the right
direction this think of all those like you know, Silicon
Valley type of folks where you know, business casual became
more of a thing. It's like, hey, we're guys just
making apps on a computer. What what why are we
wearing suits? And it became like, you know, you would
(09:12):
dress like one of these rich techn Wall Street.
Speaker 3 (09:16):
There's even some old school churches who have recently gone
away from you have to have clean cut look at
church and allow beards now, so you know what the
Yankees to still be doing.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
This is real old school. It's real old school. And
you know, some guys have negative chin. You know, some
guys there, they don't know they can't fold towels, you know,
because they're missing a chin. It's a death perception issue.
So they grow a beard and it works for them,
and it gives them a swag and a spring in
their steps.
Speaker 3 (09:46):
At least meet the players in the middle, like, Okay,
you can have a beard, but it needs to be
trimmed and well cast.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
That's the way.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
You don't, I get it. You don't want to look
like a caveman, you don't want to be unprofessional. But
let the guys still have their own personality without a doubt.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Actually, if you let a mustache happen, yeah, that's what
I'm saying. You let you do, let facial hair happen,
but just not a beard.
Speaker 1 (10:08):
Yeah, they need you to nail it. There should be
a compromise where it's like, it's just gotta lak groom.
You can't look like Kevin Malar of the Red Sox
and the If you don't have a good beard, you
can't do it. Who is the dude, black black man?
Speaker 6 (10:19):
You know, you're the guy in the Phillies, who's got
that Jason Worth the Marsh, Brandon Mars. It looks like
a Marsh guy from the Marsh.
Speaker 1 (10:26):
So you can't look at someone from Duck Dynasty, but
you could find something in between, right, Especially, Let's be honest,
a lot of these Latino players are as groomed as
could be. They got the barber on standby every day.
Their faith is tight. You're telling that guy he can't
have the big, poppy, precision beard. Yeah, you're taking away there.
They're you know, in a way, they're confidence right in
(10:46):
a way. So the question to the everyday fella, though,
as we get older, you're really faced with a decision.
Hilarious to me, and the question is do you shave
and look younger and worse or do you let the
beard grow in and look older and better. Let me
say one more time, do you look younger and worse,
(11:10):
younger and worse, or older and better?
Speaker 5 (11:14):
Do you want to look younger and worse older that's
got the hurt?
Speaker 1 (11:21):
Or younger and it's kind of a curse. Yup the
former or laser. But you have got to make this choice.
What's your choice? What are you doing? You took younger
and worse? I don't know. Do you wanna look younger
and worse? Yes? Do you wanna look younger and worse?
Devin Williams, do you wanna look younger and worse? One half?
(11:45):
Do you want to look and worse?
Speaker 5 (11:48):
Older?
Speaker 1 (11:48):
And that's got the hurt? We only played that younger
so that it's now stuck in your head for the
rest of the test. Catchy some TikTok ins.
Speaker 7 (12:00):
Guy Sam Sing, know that it's not just some guy
you got to give credit to play a song.
Speaker 1 (12:04):
It's Jesse blocked in right on social media, so props
to him. Jesse blocked in. He's an older fella. It
looks like Mandy Patankin actually right, And it's the it's
the question of do you want to look younger and worse?
Meaning shavier? Beard shows himself clean, shave you look younger,
but you look worse, right, because you got all this
fat face. Yeah, yeah, you look like Dave bloated. Devin
(12:26):
Williams looks like a like Mack and me with a
shaved beard or older and better. You know, you grow
that beard back, you look older, distinguished and older is
not necessarily good, but you do look better for whatever.
He might have some he might have some gray in there, yeah,
because sometimes older is kind of bad, but it is better.
(12:48):
Like imagine Draymond Green without the beard. Right, So it's
does he shave and look younger and worse because he's
still gonna look old, but shaved and chubby probably or
older with the beard and the gray, but still he
looks better for some reason. Yeah, it's a weird choice
that guys have to make. Picture Lebron James, right, he's
(13:09):
got a little gray coming in. But Lebron with the
beard probably more handsome look, but he looks older. If
Lebron went clean shaven, he'd probably look thirty something. You
know what happens. Let me look like we look wa
Let me put it in Steve Cavino terms for you, monsie,
you're looking right at his if I shave my face
clean shaven, right, I got this big fat face and
two chins coming out right, it looks like and then
(13:30):
he looks like Ernie. And then the scruff starts to
grow in and it looks a little grayish. So I
look younger and worse, or or I have the scruff
going on. It makes me look a little older, but better.
It gives your face definition. Ah. So it's the choice
that we all are at. And I think Devin Williams
is making a poor, poor choice right now, and unfortunately
(13:52):
it's not his decision. He looks younger and worse. Truthfully,
right right now, my stubbles a little too thin. I
feel like I'm right now on the border of looking
younger and worse.
Speaker 8 (14:04):
I feel like we're about to do aerobics'.
Speaker 6 (14:08):
Late nineties early two thousands. Man, like a gun too,
some gunment agency put out like a commercial or something.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
No, but it is. It's a question, man. It really sucks,
and I feel bad for Devin Williams. But the point is, well,
what choice would you make? Guys? As Black Sheep said,
the choice is yours. But for Devin Williams it's not.
The Yankees are making him do this, and he lost
all his swag is confidence and his intimidation factor, which
I think is necessary for the Yankees' closer at this point.
Speaker 7 (14:39):
I feel like we say this every time the Yankees
acquire a new player. Yeah, but this is very big
aff When are they gonna give it up? Very are
gonna stop?
Speaker 1 (14:44):
Every time? The closer position comes with an intimidation factor? Right,
Think of the Mets. They got all this spectacle, they
have horn sections, the lights go out. You got this
dude coming out with like baby boy do with his
stupid face. Now no one cares about that. He has
to little better. Yeah, it's gonna come out to like
the bubble guppy state or something. Yeah, exactly, Yeah, he
(15:04):
comes back to uh what's that?
Speaker 5 (15:07):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (15:12):
That is the lamest look under pets. Do you want
to look younger or worse? Er, older than better? That's
the question for you to make or for you to answer.
Fox Sports Nation. I think Fox. From the women I've asked,
I've heard a lot of answers, And Moncie, I don't
know if you agree with this. A lot of women
are answering they rather their dude look a little older
(15:33):
and better more a little like a lot of women.
Most women don't want most women don't want their grown
man with the clean shaven look at you know, can
I can? I give a hip to the Fox Sports
Radio Nation. My girlfriend doesn't like the facial hair. That's
why I was rock and clean shaved for a while, right,
(15:54):
But then I realized this is what every guy needs
to know. They're trying to take you out of the
real Yeah, that puffy face, she's trying to take you
out of the game.
Speaker 6 (16:04):
Well, like there's guys who do have a clean shaven face,
like Don Draper, John Hamm. That works for him, That
works really well.
Speaker 1 (16:10):
You know what you think? Beard John ham No, but
with a beard, I don't even know what he'd look
like like. He is a good beard. That's another thing.
You don't have a good beard, don't have a bear,
can barely grow the beard in, but people like it.
Speaker 5 (16:23):
Let me.
Speaker 2 (16:23):
Let me give you John Hamm.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
Is one of the most handsome guys out there. Example,
I'll give you a handsome guy with a beard, and
tell me if you think he would be as cool
without Megan from The Walking Dead Jeffrey Dean Morgan. That
guy with the beard looks like you mean Javier.
Speaker 7 (16:44):
Because I've seen him. I've seen Javy er Bardem So
I just did the same guy, not the same guy.
He would look Kendrick Perkins. Kendrick Perkins right now, that
beard off, Take that beard off. He's the He's the
biggest wienie. And I don't care what he says. There's
this void space under change. Can't even see.
Speaker 1 (17:01):
Yeah, what's going on up there? Kendrick Perkins.
Speaker 9 (17:03):
No, but yeah, he would not be intimidating without that.
Speaker 1 (17:05):
Dude from the office. Yeah, we like Stanley. Yeah, he
looks like Carl Winslow without that beard. With the beard,
I'm like, oh, stop it. So do you want to
look younger and worse or older and better? Older and better?
I do that? Ercle uh Kurt in Pennsylvania, what's up, buddy? Stop?
Speaker 4 (17:27):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (17:27):
What's going on? Guys?
Speaker 1 (17:28):
I love your show? Thanks, thank you man. You can
be singing that song all night. By the way, Yeah,
i'd stop the guy talk show.
Speaker 5 (17:40):
I'm just really surprised you guys haven't played the Simpson
Baseball episode clip of Sideburns yet.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
It's a classic. I do know it, man, but look
I get it. There was a time and a place.
It's a different world. Now the world has changed. A
lot man, like a lot since Don Mattingly in the eighties.
Do those side burns and that in that very timely
so great, But you also have to realize too that man,
(18:10):
it's twenty twenty five. You can't expect these especially Richardy
said it, these young Latin players, these Dominican dudes to shave,
and you want them to play for your team. I
know that sounds like petty and ridiculous when you're paying
them millions of dollars. But I can make millions of
dollars somewhere else where. I don't have to like look
(18:30):
like a mutant just to play on your team. And
can I you know who said that. Alex Radugo said
that recently too. He's like, yo, I'll go play for
another team where I could be myself. Now. I get it,
making millions of dollars is a priority for a young man.
But take yourself out of the bullpen for a second.
Take yourself out of the bullpen. I don't know if
Devin Williams is married or single, whatever the case may be,
(18:52):
but you thinkd out, but you think thank you, monci.
Do you think Devin Williams wants to go out on
the town with his boys if he's single or I
think his wife if he's married. Do you think that's
the look he would choose, because A clearly he had
a girlfriend. Yeah, he saw his face today. I have
a question, So tattoos are allowed, right? Yeah? What if
(19:13):
you got a beard tattoo? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (19:15):
I was wondering that dried on, like just to spite them.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
I'm a dry on every day.
Speaker 6 (19:20):
It's just like you did, like a he a beard
so where it wasn't permanent. People get tattoos of a hairline. Honestly,
this is my prediction.
Speaker 1 (19:27):
It's gonna be such a thing as the picture's surface
today and everyone's gonna be making fun of him. And
he already stated that he had he's more confident with
his beard. It's gonna come down to a compromise. Like
Danny g said, that's my prediction. I I you heard
it here on Fox Sports Radio. The Yankees will eventually
allow a maintained scruff, a maintained beard moving forward. That's
(19:49):
my guess. After this, I have a question something like that.
It sounds so ridiculous, but would that be in a
press conference? Yeah? Probably? Like how ridiculous does that sound.
But after you know, one hundred plus years of Yankee legacy,
will there have to be some type of house time
runner coming for and be like, I'm amade her announcements
to make for the Yankees after you know, after one
(20:11):
hundreds of the years of this organization, Because like, it's
an old organization, so there's old rules and traditions, right,
So yeah, this one needs to be update. That's all
simple as that. What do you say all the time, Rach,
I'll give you credit. Sometimes tradition is making the same
mistake over and over and over again. I think it's ridiculous, Yankees.
It's not the time of Babe Ruth anymore. There's two
things the Yankees need to adjust. One of them is
the facial hair stuff because it's lame. And secondly, I
(20:34):
love it because I do admire the history of the
pinstripes and everything. But like the fact that the Yankees
won't do a city Connect Jersey or yeah, it's.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Like, come on, it's like, come on, it's time to
be fun.
Speaker 1 (20:45):
Yeah, give us some options to fans.
Speaker 7 (20:47):
And clearly this tradition isn't making you that great, right
right at.
Speaker 2 (20:51):
One point, maybe it did, right, and maybe it did,
but now it's it's not. Devin Williams does have a girlfriend,
and it's funny that we're talking about his beard. Sports
Keida has a whole story, Maggie, bad doc.
Speaker 9 (21:02):
I'm gonna guess. And they've been together since twenty fifteen,
twenty sixteen. And there's a picture of them from twenty fifteen,
twenty sixteen, and he has no beard. Oh interesting, Yeah,
and it's it's his profile and he looks like a baby.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
But now it was ten years ago he was a man.
He's a man.
Speaker 7 (21:18):
Well, my wife has said to me, like distressed, never
to clean get clean shaven, because I look like a
you know, a drake.
Speaker 1 (21:26):
I look like I look like I look like a Yeah,
I look like your crew legendly all right, So that's
the updates, allegedly. Sorry. Also on Devin Williams again, pictures
and catchers. That positive is here here is that Hey,
baseball is underway about that and to piggyback that point
about the city connect Jerseys. A lot of sweet spring
(21:49):
training uniforms I'm seeing on a lot of teams. So
he listen, Baseball's trying their best to do everything to
connect to the fans. And I think a lot of
teams debuting some sweet new alternate jerseys and spring training gear.

crazy about a sharp dressed man with a sweet maintained beard,
not like the dudes from zz Top. But there is
a compromise, and I think that's the future of the Yankees.
(24:01):
And like Danny g said, before we move on, you
know how much added swag the Yankees would have if
they came in rocking their their own little style of
facial hair that they would normally have every day. I
think we're gonna see it thanks to Devin Williams. If not,
let it start here on Fox Sports Radio. Let it
(24:22):
hit the press, hit the press, Cavino said, so and Rich.
Now look at the clock. It's midweek. It's time.
Speaker 5 (24:32):

Speaker 1 (24:52):
Oh yeah, are you guys ready?
Speaker 5 (24:56):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (24:56):
Does everybody go say hey, y'all say man.
Speaker 3 (24:59):
It's hey, hey, We're about to give spotty at eight
full minute, it's like a whole the segment.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
When you hear the warns, you know you've made it
to the middle of the week.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Before we hand things over to the number one and
only host of the segment, we roll the two Big
Red Love Dice the main studio.
Speaker 1 (25:15):
See who goes first. I just rolled it seven in
a ritual six really seven got six That means Cove
gets the first take.
Speaker 3 (25:27):
And now, ladies and gentlemen, the most famous person besides
Judy Bloom from Scotch Plains New Jersey spotty boy.
Speaker 7 (25:34):
Hey guys, we have all the Super Bowl stuff today.
I know it's kind of old news, but it's all
the pop culture stuffrom that. So I'll talk about it.
But let me let me start with the story that
broke today. So you may see the viral video of
John Rocker and Patrick Mahomes seniors it's embarrassing ex changing
words on Bourbon Street in New Orleans ahead of the
Mahomes the second losing to the Eagles. Well, Barstool's Dave
(25:57):
Portnoy announced today that the two former emb pictures we'll
face off in Barstools Rough and Rowty event on April
eighteenth and Wheeling, Virginia. The quote beef on Bourbon Street,
as Portnard called it, will headline the event. People are
now unclear because of the video it's saying. It looks
stages are unclear if it was staged to promote this,
(26:18):
but because it was awfully quick to come to fruition
after this viral thing this past weekend. Either way, I'm
sure Patrick Mahomes will be there nice and proud watching
this event.
Speaker 1 (26:27):
Midweek are Major Major, I don't know if he will sarcasm.
I'm kind of embarrassed about the whole thing.
Speaker 10 (26:35):
Just played the worst game of my life, and now
I got my dad embarrassing me more like sort of
like insult to injury, like putting salt on the wound.
Patrick Mahomes, is your son, Stop embarrassing the kid. You're
fighting John Rocker on the streets of New Orleans and
now at a barstool event. You don't need to do this.
(26:55):
Come on, Pat Mahomes, don't do that to your son.
Speaker 1 (26:58):
I'm just catching win to this. What is this? How
John Marker didn't embarrass himself, it was someone else. It
was well John Roker. And honestly, what I saw was
John Rocker approaching Pat Mahomes on the street saying what man,
I thought we were cool. I thought we were boys,
and Pat Mahomes was not having it. John Rocker threw
(27:19):
a drink at him. Now they're fighting. I think, though,
I think the whole thing's embarrassed. So Midweek Major I
said Major, because that's Holmes his dad. I was saying,
how'd you feel if your dad was doing You can't
be the only one that doesn't know the story, So
I'm glad we explained that it was the week of
the Super Bowl. To reiterate one last time, Mahomes Senior
and Rocker had an altercation on Bourbon Street out of
(27:41):
the game. They had to be separated before the game,
before the game, before the had the week like when
everyone's partying on Bourbon Street. So now I think it's
major as well. I mean, it's the best player in
the NFL. How did John Rocker come into play? This
is it?
Speaker 6 (27:56):
If it's not? If it if it is staged? Why
But if it's not, then I guess that makes no sense.
Speaker 1 (28:00):
I saw John Rockers sort of jacked, but he looks
like he's got a limp, and Jack's Jack by the
limp he's jacked for like he's still very built. He's
what you're saying.
Speaker 5 (28:11):
And then you.
Speaker 1 (28:11):
Got Pat Mahomes Senior who's slender, and it's just embarrassing.
You'll have time to give us a tell the tape later, don't.
I will watch it if it happens, And you know
what I think, You also have to give portnoy credit.
You know, barstool, it's who is it gonna watch? You're
not gonna watch John Rocker and mahomes dad fight. It's ridiculous, brother,
(28:32):
Why don't we watch a bum fight? I mean it
sort of feels like that, right yeah again? Can you
said it?
Speaker 5 (28:38):
So?
Speaker 1 (28:38):
I don't want to reiterate it, but it's Patrick Mahomes.
Why is his family embarrassing his His brother used to
and that his dad like the guy seems like so
well adjusted. Him and Britney are fantastic. He seems happy
when he's not losing. He's a new dad too, Like,
come on, yeah, grandpa's fighting John Rocker sounds like the
Royal Tenenbaumbs.
Speaker 7 (28:58):
Oh Jesus right next, squeeze this one in Eagles Cooper
to Jean had a stellar pick in this weekend Super Bowl,
and the congrats have poured in, including from fellow IOWA
alumni Caitlyn Clark.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
Clark if we know, huge Chiefs fan.
Speaker 7 (29:13):
She was seen attending the game with none other than
Taylor Swift, but she said to Gene message after the championship.
Jean said, actually ahead of the draft that he could
beat he was asked, obviously, you know that he could
beat Clark in a one on one game. Of course
he could, I know, But he's since changed saying that
he respects what Clarke has done for women's basketball in
the University of Iowa in general, but was really happy
(29:35):
and proud that he actually got that nod from the
WNBA Superstar Midweek or major major.
Speaker 1 (29:40):
She's the biggest star to come from that school, the
biggest star maybe arguably in sports right now. So for
her to acknowledge him on his birthday with a big
moment that he had, I think that's great. Yeah, I mean,
I think it's major. So what I think is weak
is the fact that Cooper Dejene backed off saying that
he could beat Caitlyn Clark one on one. I bet,
(30:02):
I bet my home on Cooper de Gene. He's a
grown man. She is a woman. Stone men and women
competing against him, but he would he would annihilate her
one on one. The fact that he had a back
off for political correctness reasons annoys me. I just want
to keep it all. You think Kim leccard beat a
man in basketball that played college basketball.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
I'm really in my eyes that you were offended.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
By all of that. Good there, good one. He's just
rolling her eyes at your face. Right, be guess I'm
a little more clean shave in the stop it alright, younger.
Over to the halftime show. A couple stories out of that.
Speaker 7 (30:36):
So Kendrick Lamar, as you said, officially the most viewed
halftime show.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
Uh.
Speaker 7 (30:40):
And despite heading into halftime with the twenty four to
zero lead over the Chiefs, players on the Eagles did
not sneak out to watch the halftime show. Jylex Hunt
was actually stopped it. Oh wait, Jelex Salox Hunt, Okay,
Jylex Hunt, Yeah, it's back ship player Jalx reveal, Yeah,
I know, that's what it says, reveal that the team
remained laser focused during halftime, making sure they didn't blow
their lead in the second half, saying they just watch
(31:01):
it on YouTube. Actually, and a fun stat the NFL's
official video of the performance of Kendrick Lamar racked up
more views in one day than Usher's performance did.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
When it was posted a year ago. So that thing,
it just keeps blowing up and growing. Midweek or major,
it's very major. People can't stop talking about how they
feel about the halftime show, much like everything in our country,
very divided on this, and I think we're getting extra
views on it because people are trying to figure out
why anyone else could possibly like it, like what did
I miss? What did I miss? And you know what,
(31:31):
we're gonna be talking about this tomorrow, like who do
we want or who do we think should be headlining
the Super Bowl halftime show next year? But ratings are up.
I think the whole thing's major. One hundred and thirty
three million people tuned in. Yeah, we talked about it
at length. Yeah, I think it's major. I think it's
just a little former, you know, additional proof to backup
(31:54):
of Comino said, everyone thinks their opinion matters so much,
and I promise you it doesn't. Everyone thinks their opinion
of like I loved it, oh I hated it? Go
on social media. Everyone thinks they have like the final word,
like it matters. One hundred and thirty three million people watch,
it doesn't matter what you think.
Speaker 7 (32:12):
One last one or no, Excu's the one last one
still on the halftime show. Maybe a reason for some
of the views might have to do with Serena Williams
Tennis great Straa Williams addressing her viral appearance during the
halftime show and says it's apparently been thirteen years in
the making. You may have seen the video of floating
around of her after winning gold at the twenty twelve Olympics.
So she said when Compton born Kendrick Lamar reach out
(32:33):
to her because she's also from Compton, she jumped at
the chance to be able to dance in the Super Bowl.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
I know there's that added layer that she dated Drake.
Speaker 7 (32:41):
And the song not like Us as a distrack on Drake,
but she's saying it was really just about connecting with
her Compton fellow Compton native, and she said she practiced
hard for her ten to fifteen second appearance.
Speaker 1 (32:53):
Side story, I don't know if you heard. Steven A.
Smith came out since saying that it's bashomous, that far bad.
She would damn damned if my wife was dancing to
a distract to her. If you've but if you're with
somebody and that they're that concerned about their ex like,
(33:14):
come on, man, that's embarrassing. I think there's a little
level of embarrassment there. She looked good. She looked good,
but like you're dancing about your ex. I'd be a
little insulted too if I was the new guy. I mean,
you know, I mean you know the n w A lyrics, right,
I mean straight out of Compton, Crazy Mother Effron, Dame Serena.
It's right right, I mean we all talked to that.
All right, thank you, thanksbody. Midweek Major, Let's go to
(33:37):
Moncey Belon. She walked her way into the studio. I't
say gang names. I just looked that up. Spot was
a do you know that you can't say gang names
on the radio? TV? Interesting? I did not know your
training or pay attention to have said those words.
Speaker 8 (33:57):
The Bucks are going to be without Damian Lillard today
as they take on Minnesota. He's still gonna be available
for all the All Star events that he committed to,
the three point Shooting Contest and the game on Sunday.
Pelican's wingman Herb Jones will be out for the remainder
of the season after undergoing surgery to repair a torn
rotator cuff. In the NFL, Colorado quarterback George Sanders revealed
(34:20):
that his first top two thirty visits with NFL teams
are going to be with the Browns and the Giants,
who hold the second and third overall picks in the
upcoming draft. Ohio State is finalizing a deal to make
veteran NFL coach Matt Patricia the school's new defensive coordinator.
Angels third baseman Anthony Rindain hates baseball. He's having hip
surgery and is expected to miss a significant amount of time.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
He just doesn't play. Joe. What I don't get about
this though? What he had all off season to figure
it out. He hates baseball, So just right now he's like,
you know what I think now I need the surgery.
Speaker 9 (34:50):
He's played two hundred and five games, he's missed four
hundred and thirty eight.
Speaker 1 (34:55):
That's the weakest signing of all times? What are we doing?
Speaker 3 (34:57):
Like?
Speaker 2 (34:57):
You just admit you hit?
Speaker 1 (34:58):
You hate baseball and.
Speaker 2 (34:59):

Speaker 1 (35:02):
Face off begins today.
Speaker 2 (35:03):
Canada takes on Sweden and USA is going to play
Finland tomorrow. This replaced the All Star Game in the
NHL for this year.

the big bed. Thank you all entertainment. I knew what

softball team is trying to think of a creative name.
They're the Teal Team. So so far Covino on spot
have come up with Teal Team six or the Teeler Swifts.
Speaker 9 (38:32):
Teeler Swifts is cute.
Speaker 1 (38:34):
Girls like Teals. Well, they're called the Swifts right because
they're a little girls softball team. The Swifts they're quick
and they're swift. The Tealer the Teeler Swifts because they're
rocking toal. I like that. So let us know at
Rich David, because all the girls like I don't know
teal penguins, sharks steal this? Are you the color of
the famous nineties hornets? We got to it's black and teals.
(38:54):
We almost look like the Marlins to be honest, like
the old school Marlins. Heeler's nation. Yeah, he could go
awquall Heal or no Teal Teeler. That's good. The Aqua Barbie,
thet barbie send us your ideas. Do Riches work for him? Yeah?
Rich thinks that we're too dumb to pick up on
his Tom Sawyer antics. Hey can we don't want to
(39:14):
come to my house in paint and I got pizza? Yeah.
Rich always wants to make you do his work. So anyway,
it's a lot of fun. You want to paint. Speaking
of your teeler Swifts, Taylor Swift is in the news.
Saquon Barkley said, I remember they showed Taylor Swift on
the jumbo Tron. You have the sound, and she got
boo I don't get it, so says, I don't get it.
(39:40):
She's there supporting her significant other, and she's made the
game bigger. I'm not going to deny it. One hundred
and twenty six million tuned in him. That was part
of it. It really was whether you want to believe
that or not. So she has added a lot to
the game.
Speaker 3 (39:57):
If we all blew at the same time, we can reenact.
Ready wait, wait, one, two three?
Speaker 1 (40:07):
All right?
Speaker 4 (40:11):
Oh, I remember that they showed her on the jumble
chron and she got booed. I don't get it. I
don't get why she she was getting hate there.
Speaker 1 (40:20):
I didn't like that.
Speaker 4 (40:21):
Yeah, I didn't like that porting her significant out there.
And she's made the game bigger. You know, we're all
about and football. We're all about, you know, how can
we expand the game and make it more internationally? And
we're traveling to Brazil and we're traveling the next to go,
and so we're trying to expand the game, and you
know her being a part of it is only helping it.
So I don't I don't get to the slide that
(40:43):
she would getting.
Speaker 1 (40:43):
Saquon Barkley making some great points and he's speaking the truth.
Hatey hay seriously, and she was like, what's going on here?
She didn't even know what's going on. So for today,
we're going to add her to the list of other
people that get unwarranted, unnecessary hate, and that list consists
of Guy Fieri yep, go back, Dane Cook. Dane Cook. Yeah,
(41:03):
think about it, Guy Fierti. Everybody hates on him for
no reason because he has funny shirt. He's the nicest
guy of all the giggling friends rocks. I don't care
if anybody says everybody hates on him, I'll throw Creed
in there. They get a lot of under oh Creed nickelback,
Guy Fiertti, Dane Cook. Who else.
Speaker 3 (41:21):
Let's take it all the way back to when we
were kids. Millie Vanilli, Now everybody lip syncs.
Speaker 1 (41:25):
Serious come unwarranted hate.
Speaker 6 (41:28):
Yeah, that wasn't even their voices though, that was somebody
yeah album though.
Speaker 1 (41:32):
Uh, it's a tragedy for me to see the dream is. Oh,
come on, bro, I don't care who sings it. Nobody
danced to it like they did. So who do you
want to add to that list of people that get
unwarranted hate? Because Taylor Swift, that was Unwarrantn't you when
you say that made me think of like a school dancer.
You couldn't touch the person you're dancing with, arms out,
(41:55):
but the beach ball which that song came back too. Man, Well, hey,
have a great Wednesday night. A lot of fun today.
