Aaron Rodgers Tripods get to it. How often do you
(00:25):
think about it? About as often as I think about
the Roman Empire Rich at least three times a week.
So Aaron Rodgers, there's three things going on. That's the
Aaron Rodgers trifecta, the tripod so to speak. It's a
three pronged discussion basically part one his return. Well, according
to the text message and tweet that Danny G sent
(00:47):
us from bleacher Report bleacher Report, Yeah, Danny G. When
you sent this to us super producing like you always do,
I'm like, get Daddy, but it gets me fired up
and I respect where it's coming from. Well, I want
to make something very clear. According to bleacher Report, Aaron
(01:09):
Rodgers underwent an innovative new procedure that was created specifically
to help speed up the traditional rehab that goes along
with an achilles injury, as Mike, who runs his place said,
sounds about right. Who Mike, Mike, Mike, Big Mike, sounds
about right. The boss that's per rap sheet and Tom Palasaro.
(01:30):
So an innovative experimental procedure sounds about right. It does.
It sounds very Aaron Rodgers ish right, smoke this, do this.
We know Aaron Rodgers is on the cutting edge. So hey, listen,
I want to let it be known. Don't get excited yet.
And who are usually Jets fans, Danny, think of another sport.
(01:52):
Jets fans are usually oh as far as baseball, Mets
Mets fans. Yeah, guess who was maybe to return before
the playoffs? Edwin Diaz? Oh, qu up timmy trumpets. We
don't need that crap to Mets stink. So for this
to even matter for the Aaron Rodgers possibilities, you don't
(02:12):
you know, Mets fans, Jets fans, it's all gonna be
the same thing. Aaron Rodgers could be ready to play,
but if the Jets are seven and ten and missed
the postseason, it'll be like Edwin Diaz sitting there with
the trumpet player saying, well, I guess I'll wait till
next year. They gotta make it there and make it
worthwhile for him to even consider coming back this season.
So Layer one of the Aaron Rodgers tripod is pretty cool,
(02:36):
pretty fun to think about. Wow, imagine if the Jets
sneak into the postseason and a fresh, hungry Aaron Rodgers returns.
Aaron Rodgers gonna play. Aaron rod Is gonna play. He's
got Miagi. I even think he got the ghost of Miagi.
He's wearing his white cleats, comes out all ready to
play mustache lo can fresh. Oh man, I could see
(02:58):
it now like a hero. Wait so layer one? Oh,
can I say something before we go past Layer one?
Speaker 2 (03:05):
What is this like?
Speaker 1 (03:06):
Dip?
Speaker 3 (03:06):
No?
Speaker 1 (03:06):
I did think it was endearing. This has a lot
to do with the positive mindset and as he expressed
people doubting him, he's using that as fuel when he
was joking around with McAfee and calling Keith told him
in the bomb and you know people that were doubting him,
get your fifth booster, yeah, bomb bomb. It was nice
to see his positive outlook and see him smiling when
(03:27):
you got to realize that he sort of lived through
a nightmare. Dude, what happened? To him was the worst.
Forget about us as fans, right, we feel a little
robbed of the whole situation. Forget about the Jets and
how they feel about it. How does he feel about it?
To see him there recovering, joking around, smile, having fun
and staying positive, that made me happy just as a sportsman,
(03:49):
and like, hey, good for him. So I like that
he's taking that positive attitude toward his return, like, hey,
doubt me and you'll see what I'm capable of. For
anyone that thinks, well, he makes like forty five fifty
million year, he'll be fine. That doesn't take away the
passion and love he has for the game and just
the competitive spirit of a grown man or woman to
play sports for a living. So Aaron Rodgers is not
(04:11):
happy about this. So if anyone has that narrative of like, yeah,
he'll be following he makes forty million year, Nah, he
wants to be out there. And he did give me,
not just me, He gave the world that give me liberty,
give me death style speech ram if you got that
from last week.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
Give me the timetables, give me all the things that
you think can, should or will happen. Because all I
need is that one little extra percent of inspiration. That's
all I need. So give me your doubts, give me
your prognostications, and then watch what I do.
Speaker 1 (04:47):
All he needs is a miracle. All he needs he's you.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
You only get one shot.
Speaker 1 (04:54):
So Aaron Rodgers aiming for a quote playoff return. If
you're just joining us us, he did a innovative new procedure,
innovative new procedure that is specifically designed to help heal
the Achilles faster. So we shall see. But like I said,
it could be an Edwin Diaz situation where all the
(05:15):
rehab and the hard work works. But if the team's
not in position, then all of this is for nil,
for nothing for goose eke the.
Speaker 2 (05:23):
But the headline reads Aaron Rodgers aiming for playoff return.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Yeah, that's the story, and that's really cool. I respect it.
Like I said, so playoff return. But how Prong two
Part two of the Rogers Tripod? All right, everyone pictured
Rogers Tripod? Okay, here's part two. Part two is how
does he get there? How do you get to a
playoff return? Thank you, Steven, because I'll break out the schedule.
(05:49):
And we talked a lot about this weekend, Danny g
we were discussing the Chargers, Vikings, two OHO and two
teams with playoff hopes like Who's gonna go oh and three?
That is no blaino for that fan base. I think
the more important must win of Week three of the NFL,
the most important must win of the season so far,
(06:11):
could very well be the Patriots at the Jets this Sunday.
If the Jets want to keep the hope alive, that
can we sneak into the playoff picture somehow, someway. You
have to beat the Patriots this week. You're at home,
You're not even up at Foxborough. You have to win.
(06:32):
You have to find a way to win. It's a
must win. This Aaron Rodgers News should motivate the hell
out of these guys.
Speaker 2 (06:39):
To the point where I say, no matter what Zach
Wilson does this coming weekend, you find a great band
aid right now.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
And that's part of that, that's part of the light,
that's part of the second layer. Do you get there?
I mean this week clear, the answer is clear. You're
rolling with Zach Wilson. You hope to get by a
predicted last place team, the New England Patriots. Let's not
think that the Patriots were predicted to be any good.
They were predicted to be at the bottom of the
(07:07):
AFC East. So you have to win this game, even
with Zach Wilson. But as tagle Lois said, you're always
expecting tough competition when Belichick's involved, even if they're not
expected to do much. Now, if you look at the
Jets schedule, if you remember with an Aaron Rodgers, we
were saying three and three after the first six would
(07:32):
be good. Right, are we adjusting and saying please just
come away two and four? Because say so, Yeah, after
this Patriots game, if you don't win, let me explain.
Let me double down like I'm in a blackjack table,
Oh eleven, double down, Hit me with the freaking queen
or a king. I'm doubling down that this is such
(07:52):
a must win because after the Jets play the Patriots,
two of their next three games are against the Chiefs
and the Eagles. You think Zach Wilson is beating Patrick Mahomes.
You think Zach Wilson is gonna beat the Eagles in
the Disney in the Disney made for TV movie about
(08:13):
his football career. Maybe yeah, he's able to do that,
not in realize that's how he looks like a Disney
football star, but in real life not too sure. So
again Part one of the Rogers Tripod Aaron Rodgers aiming
for playoff return. Part two. How did they get there?
They got to win this weekend. They gotta go two
and four at least to start off the season. But
(08:36):
it goes back to what Danny g said. You also
have to start making moves, right. You got Zach Wilson
this week, but what moves need to be made? And
there have been some names thrown around, And if you
watched the Saints Panthers game, you saw some cool sportsmanship
and leadership from Jameis Winston. And he's one of those
names that come up. Well did you see him shaking
(08:58):
the hands of all his teammates waiting very We waited
for every last teammate to come in and congratulate him.
He's such a team guy and he's a guy that
needs a good opportunity. Don't you think this would be
a cool opportunity. Jamis helped them get there. Jameis Winston
is the number one answer on the board. I could
picture Steve Harvey's mustache number one answer on the board, well,
(09:22):
how often do you picture Steve Harvey's must till once
a day at least? Forget the Roman Empire? How often
do you think of Steve Harvey's mustache? By the way,
if you guys don't know, there's a viral trend on
social media where women, wives and girlfriends ask their husband
and boyfriend how often do you think about the Roman Empire?
And they're shocked to find out how often often? So,
Jameis Winston is the number one answer as far as well,
(09:45):
we've said Kirk Cousins for a while, No, no, no, number
one answer as far as who's not starting in the
NFL that could and should be starting in the NFL.
And to that answer, I can't think of someone better
than Jameis Winston, who, by the way, is sitting there
with Derek Carr starting. Taysom Hill's still on that team,
Jameis Winston. They also have a fourth round draft pick,
(10:07):
Jake Hayner, right, Jake Haynter on the team. So I mean,
here's this guy wasting his time, wasting his career, and
still like he's still got it.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Yeah, Saints are high on that kid. He played for
Washington and Fresno State.
Speaker 1 (10:21):
So Danny, that's layer two. How do they get there?
And it's not with Zach Wilson. I'm sorry to say,
and I'm not the hater. I loved watching Hard Knocks
and seems like a fun kid. He tries hard, he's
trying to learn. But if if this Jets team was
a team that people thought with Aaron Rodgers, they maybe
eleven and six, ten and seven they thought that with
(10:42):
Aaron Rodgers. Yeah, So you take away Aaron Rodgers, you
can't make the playoffs with Zach Wilson, so you need
to so you have to pivot, and you have to
thinking about guys like Jameis Winston and would they even
take this opportunity, And the answer is yeah, absolutely, you
would think he would. He's a guy that needs an opportunity.
(11:02):
He's a guy that could be the bridge to Aaron
Rodgers playoff return and he would get so much glory
fast and potentially another job somewhere else, potentially a ring
yeah out of it and a ring man yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
And he's the perfect guy who knows how to play
backup to somebody else on the team because he's been
pushed to the bench so often in his career that
if the Jets were upfront with him when they first
sat down and try to make this deal work, they'd say, look,
Rogers wants to come back for the playoffs. If you
get us there, we will be indebted to you forever
and this will set you up for a huge payday
(11:35):
to start for somebody else next season.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
Before we because he's not playing for the Saints. No, No,
he just can go. He's just a cheerleader at this point.
He could be a cheerleader down in the Big Easy
or he could go up to New York City and
save the Jets playoff hopes. And if you're Jamis Winston,
I know we're just pinpointing him because I think all
the other options that you're hearing are like garbage. Carson
(12:00):
win So maybe Matt Ryan comes out of retirement with
this guy. None of this makes sense to me. They're
all lateral moves. In my opinion, Jameis Winston is better
than Zach Wilson. I have a question for for everybody
Fox Sports Radio Nation, you, Rich, Danny g Ramos, what
gets in the way, Like it sounds great, right, sounds great.
We're just trying to not the Saints, Saints not wanting
to give him.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Up, and Derek Carr running for his life, and so
maybe the Saints want Winston as their backup plan.
Speaker 1 (12:26):
Man. So that's layer two of the Aaron Rodgers tripod.
Third part is really interesting. Layer three My dad hit
me up, so I'll give my dad credit. What's up Greg? Oh?
I love the show? Say hi to Danny g I
love his best of all. That's my Riches dad impression.
My dad loves the Oh that's Dan Baya. Oh, nice
(12:50):
to meet Dan Baya. Oh now how I pic sued? Oh?
My dad listens every day. My dad is also a fan.
He's not Aankees fam, believe it. But my dad likes
Michael Kay.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
Right.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
I'm not saying I don't like Michael Kay, but my
dad Michael Kay. My dad listens to us every day.
We'll throw on maybe a little cow herd here or there.
My dad listened to you, Michael Kay. But he likes
Michael Kay. That's his thing. Michael Kay and Rosenberg. They're
on together in New York and Lo Greca. And my
dad is so aggravated about Robert Salah, his weekly hit
(13:24):
on the Michael ka Show. All every New Yorker sees
through this guy's BS. My dad's so aggravated. How Robert
Salah goes on Michael Kay Show and he's on Sunshine
and Rainbow's like, we believe in Zach Wilson and the
team's great and everything. He's like, come on, who's he
fool of?
Speaker 5 (13:41):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (13:41):
Who is he trying to fool? And especially New Yorkers
whose BS detector is always right? It sounds phony. It's
phony maloney for Robert sala his phony maloney for any
head coach. And I get it, you said, Aaron Boone
does that with the I feel the same way. It's like, yo, dude,
(14:02):
let's be real for a minute. You're talking to New
Yorkers and no one thinks his team is going anywhere
except for you, and your positive attitude gets sickening after
a while and it becomes too much. It's like, all right, dude, stuck,
can you stop and be real. Let's hear the truth
for once, Like what that really is thinking? What do
you really feel like? Dad's got to have his court
(14:23):
his look if if Wilson's starting now just at a
flip side and I know people are thinking it, Yeah,
your head coach has to have his back. Yeah, no,
you got it. You gotta be a cheerleader for your guy.
But you know, Ramos Dany, you guys are Dodgers fans.
Dave Roberts, is he a total a little too raw raw?
Or is he realistic? Is you know is former coaches
like McVeigh or McDaniels do you feel like they're too
(14:45):
raw raw? Or do you are they real I don't think.
I don't think Dave Roberts is a raw rock. No,
he sounds like sometimes like when things are when things
are going right, he shows it. Robert Sala apparently, according
to my dad at least is too. We got Zach
Wilson's back, and he's our guy.
Speaker 2 (15:03):
We love him.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
You know, dude, where does reality kick in? Where what
are you gonna do? Lose two to three more in
a row? And then it makes you think, well, what's
he saying to the front offices? Like are they buying
into salah'say? We got it with Wilson because if he
doesn't state the truth and how he really feels to somebody,
they might not be making the moves to get there.
(15:25):
So is his positive attitude too positive in this crisis? Situation.
I saw a lot of people think thinking that RG
three was making his pitch that was taken out of context.
RG three made a point on us on one of
the TV shows, saying, how there is something he's said
about Zack Wilson knowing the locker room, knowing the playbook,
knowing all that, he just lacks the talent all the
(15:45):
other things. Some new guy if you brought in, let's
say Carson Wentz, Carson Wentz would have to know. He
would have to learn every play, every teammate, every move
to a new city. It's not as easy as you
think to just be like take.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
That guy in the downside of Winston would be he's
turnover prone, right. He throws a lot of interceptions, but
it's because he's a gunslinger. He's got a huge arm.
So I think he'd have the same amount of interceptions
as Wilson this season, but he'd have twice the touchdowns.
Speaker 1 (16:12):
Is the Rogers trying correct? He's the guy, like Jamis,
Winston's the type of guy that'll throw for three hundred
and eighty yards, yes, three touchdowns, two picks. But you know,
I guess who's not there. Guess who's not throwing those
three touchdowns, Zach Wilson, and with all.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Those receivers they have the Titans, they are loaded on
offense right now.
Speaker 1 (16:30):
You know, if we're thinking it clearly others are right.
I just wonder, I wonder how quick those conversations got
killed or if they're ongoing. The positive attitude comes across
the wrong way. He's like, hey, everyone else is seeing
through this because we all have plans. What's your plan?
Let's be honest about that. So again the three part
three prong rogers tripod his playoff return, how's he gonna
(16:54):
get there? And is Robert Sala being too positive and
not being real enough to make those changes happen? Jersey Boy,
Steve Covina horse, that's from Franklin Square, Long Island. Rich Davis,
we got a spot from Scotch Plains, New Jersey. You're
host of Midweek Major in a few minutes.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
You never give our cities. Where are you from? Romos?
Speaker 6 (17:16):
Beautiful city of South Pasadena, California.

Speaker 7 (18:07):
You need to put some respect on Meryl Wisconsin. Represent
Jase if you have to get their first win on
the grid Iron. But it's coming this year.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Dan, we have a we have a funny story about Wisconsin, Wisconsin.
If you guys want to hear a quick thirty second story.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
You'll see how funny it is.
Speaker 8 (18:28):
We've only been in Wisconsin for what all of all
of like twelve hours.
Speaker 1 (18:32):
I went there for I went there for a part
of my brother's bachelor party. The Mets had a road
trip where we went to see the Mets play at
Wrigley and then drove up to Milwaukee, which was a
great little ballpark excursion. My brother's such a nerd. Though
we were all drinking at the Cubby Bear across the street.
My brother needs to be there for the first pitch, nerd. Anyway,
I digress. We're on a road trip. We're in Wisconsin,
(18:54):
and I'm adam about stopping to get my wife a
cheesehead because she's a packer's and her dad's a packers fans.
You're not enough for her, not enough. So at a
gift shop, I was like, Spot, we gotta stop. I
gotta get my wife and her dad one of those
you know, the cheeseheads that they wear in the crowd.
I'd have to. We're in Wisconsin, so Spot's like, we're
(19:14):
on a schedule. We need to get to the line broadcast. Yeah,
he did not want to stop. Spots like, we're not stopping.
I'm like, Spot, it's a lie because I wanted cheese skirts. Yeah,
but you didn't want to just stop for a rich
to get this stupid hat, right, I know, because we
had already gotten all our stuff and we were getting
back on the road. He's like, wait a second, I
forgot something. I gotta get my cheese. So Spot. You know,
(19:36):
when someone rushes you ramost. This usually happens not with
your biachi friend like Spot. Usually like a wife or girlfriend,
you know, but like Spots, the type that will rush
you where you start like moving too fast or like
messing up.
Speaker 8 (19:49):
Chances are when I'm rushing you it's because I was
giving you ample time before that, and you chose not.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
To take to slam your head again. So now I'm
rushing you, so you're on my time. This pain in
the ass is like come we called it cool. We
gotta go, and I'm looking at Covino like I hate
this guy. So I go. Let me just get the cheeseheads.
I put it in the hatchback of the rental car
we have, and Spots like we packed up. Come on,
(20:15):
I get in the car. We pull on the highway
and because Spots rushed me so much, I didn't fully
close the hatch, so I hear a sound.
Speaker 8 (20:25):
We were We were like a midivan, Like, is there
a window open?
Speaker 1 (20:29):
There's a wall of a sudden I look backs open, Spots, luggage,
laptop and work equipments all tumbling on the highway. Yeah,
all of our broadcast environment everything, and we were heading
to the Canadian border.
Speaker 8 (20:42):
My bag with not only my money but my passport gone.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
I gone. The cheeseheads. Okay, we got the cheeseheads. They're
still there. And the funny part is I bring these
cheeseheads home after this whole hassle of like we have
to go backtrack on the highway and pick up.
Speaker 8 (20:59):
Something by the way, so one picked up my backpack,
looked inside, found my business card and and was like,
I have your bag.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
It was like.
Speaker 2 (21:07):
Nice people in that part.
Speaker 1 (21:08):
It was so after this whole hassle because of the
stupid cheese heads I had to get. I bring them
home on day one. My dog eats it, shoes it
up and this yellow foam. So now we're down broadcast equipment, computers, passports,
and Jesus. So there you go. There's there's our Wisconsin story.
(21:29):
So thank you. I blame Spot for rushing me. You
know that feeling like, come on, Danny g. You've traveled
the spot a few times now. He is like, oh man,
I got places that would.
Speaker 6 (21:43):
Be such a great sitcom.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
The one part rich like that, Oh I know that.
That part is we're driving right and people are driving
up to us, like look behind you and like what
we're waving.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
They must recognize not only is Bought like a speed walker,
but he's like a scout because we would have to
call him. He's part of our group, but we gotta
call him because he's two blocks ahead of us. He's
walking so crazy.
Speaker 6 (22:09):
You know those people when you're driving and your your
gas tank thing is open and they're going like right, You're.
Speaker 1 (22:16):
Like yeah, your trunk is open, and we're like hi,
everyone here is so friendly. It's a part again.
Speaker 2 (22:24):

Speaker 1 (23:28):
I'm gonna do a little something called Homer Check, where
you guys gotta check me if I'm being a Homer
forty nine Ers fan or not. Do you feel like
the forty nine Ers might just straight up annihilate the
Giants on Thursday Night Football. We're talking Giants and Giants
had to fly three thousand miles across the country game
minus Saquon minus You said a key defender was also injured, right,
(23:51):
I think my dad was telling me, like the Giants
have Giants are a little banged up. No Saquon flying
across the country the Niners home opener Thursday Night Football.
Speaker 6 (24:00):
I and only a ten point spread. That seems awfully
low for all those things that you're talking about, dude,
Like you.
Speaker 1 (24:07):
Know me, I like to go to Teasertown Ramos team
that up with something else. If you could get the
Niners like minus four.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
You see this one over under ten forty nine Er
fans fighting the stands.
Speaker 1 (24:19):
That I'm going over. People are getting rowdy, dude. Yeah,
yuh Danny g for my oh damn. Like my thirty
something birthday when I first met my wife, she surprised
me with a trip to San Francisco to see my
first game of Candlestick and it was Niners Raiders and yo,
that was a scene where I was like, Yo, I'm
(24:40):
just gonna keep my mouth shut. It was like Yo,
Raiders in forty nine. It was like Dodgers Giants right right,
Like at any given moment, someone could throw down. You're like, yo,
I'm not in the middle of any tussle. Could I
please be sitting my old ladies in the stands because
I was like, please, don't have us in between? Oh
you know a guy with his face painted like the Raiders.
Speaker 6 (24:59):
I made it a pilgrimage to go to Countersick Park
at least one time with the Dodgers Giants game because
I just wanted to see what it was like. And
everything you talked about with that Raiders was exactly the same.
We walking into the stadium, people would just stare at us.
I had my Dodger hat on, just like looking like
they wanted to just beat beat the heck out of you.
Speaker 1 (25:17):
And it's like Robosaw an East Coast equivalent. This is
a little trick. I mean, you know, little Rich Davis
advice here. You always learned a little something on kicking
on Rich. Yeah, I've done this, and it's a killer
move because no one wants to get their ass beat.
No one wants to get their tires slashed. No one
wants to get their car scratched. Occasionally I would go
to Philadelphia to see the Mets Phillies. We all know
(25:39):
what Philly fans are made of, Eagles flyer sixers. There's
some those are some like hardcore dedicated fans. We'll just
say they're a little rough around the edge. They beat
up Santa Claus. Yeah, they threw snowballs at Santa Claus. Right,
that'll that reputation will never go after if there's snowballs
at Santa Claus. In the seventies or eighties, I would
(26:00):
do this. I would put my Mets jersey and like
my hat or whatever in a bag and I would
carry it with me and put it on as I
got close to the stadium entrance because I didn't want
to be seen leaving my car. What if they use
the plastic bag to strangle to suffocate me? But no,
But my thought was, my thought was, My thought was
(26:22):
all takes is some dopes to see me walking out
of my car with New York plates and my Mets
gear on. They're like, yeah, that guy. So I if
you go to a visiting stadium with hardcore fans, take
your jersey, put it in a bag, walk up to
the stadium. As you're getting closer to the front gate,
throw on the jersey. Don't leave your car. You're just
(26:43):
giving some jo an opportunity to mess with you. And
that's not every fan base for away games, but said
some of them can.
Speaker 9 (26:52):
And Rich get you over the middle of the week
with mid Week Major that we throw sports and pop
culture headlines and topics at the fellas and it's like
the kids.
Speaker 6 (27:04):
Say, that's summit.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
We definitely here.
Speaker 2 (27:08):
To see it.
Speaker 3 (27:08):
Our scoring Midweek Major. Danny g wow.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
So it's just so impressed.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
It's it's some oxygen, all right.
Speaker 1 (27:29):
Danny just looks like he ran back a plumper shirt
for eighty yards.
Speaker 2 (27:33):
Before we hand things over to America's number one and
only host of the segment. You know, when the horns hit,
you know you've made it to the middle of the week.
We are going to roll the red Love dice in
the Man studio there that lets you know who has
home court advantage in this game. O, Rich, what'd you
get with a ten?
Speaker 1 (27:54):
It's gonna be hard to be and now and I
gotta oh yeah, baby eleven. Wow, I just felt like
I was feeling there. I feel like I flipped two
kings and I'm a twenty and the dealer just built
a twenty one.
Speaker 2 (28:13):
Gets to answer first, Rich has to sloppy seconds, and now,
ladies and gentlemen, the number one host and the most
famous person from Scotch Plains, New Jersey besides Judy Bloom
Spotty boy Dah.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
You should own that you're really number You're number two.
You're my favorite. Number two is a number two for sure?
Are you guys coming down to me today?
Speaker 2 (28:33):
What am I do to you?
Speaker 8 (28:35):
Kurtz? All right, I know we're gonna dive into a
little bit into more coach prime, but I guess I
know he's on the forefront of everyone's mind. Well, another
famous college head coach, Alabama head coach Nick Saban, is
jumping on the bandwagon like everyone else. The Crimson Tide
head coach was asked about what's going on with Deanna
and the Buffaloes. That sounds like a sixties group and
he wasna se Buffaloes some douop songs, right, He said.
(29:00):
He watched a bit of the Rocky Mountain show Down
this weekend and has a tremendous amount of respect for Dion,
went on to add he's a great person, He's doing
a great job of marketing the program to create national interest, and.
Speaker 1 (29:11):
That the team plays well on the field. He said,
like the team is really really pushing through. He said.
Speaker 8 (29:17):
Apparently him and Saban Deonan's Saban bumped heads a year
ago when Saban accused Dion of spending a million to
get Travis Hunter to join the program when they were
at Jackson State, so they too have obviously made up.
Speaker 1 (29:31):
And is this midweeker major? I think anytime you get
the respect and acknowledgment from your peers, especially especially a
legendary coach like Nick Saban, it means a lot. And
I think the proof is in the hype, the ratings,
everyone talking about coach Prime. I mean, Kawhi Leonard was
in the building for that game. As the meme goes,
(29:51):
Deon Sanders got Kawhi Leonard out in Colorado. Kawhi don't
even show up at his own games. So that's the meme.
Speaker 11 (29:59):
Bo everybody's pump, Nick Saban's pump. And like I said,
when it's like, it's like Colin Cowherd saying, you know what,
I listened to Covino and Rich and hey, it's not
my style of radio, but these guys are great. That's
a compliment, yeah, and Colin Yeah, and it's and that's major.
I'm gonna say it's major.
Speaker 1 (30:19):
And I'll tell you why because Nick Saban's the best
college football coach of all time and on prime time
is doing something very different, right, and he's bringing a
new twist and some new flavor to the college football world.
Like you said, the ratings on Saturday Night were unbelievable
and and I will say, coach Saban is still able
(30:42):
to politely be like yo, I really love what he's
doing because Colorado is not yet a threat to Alabama exactly,
so it's still almost like they're doing something pretty cool.
But when Dion and Colorado or wherever maybe the next
stop is is a threat to coach Saban Alabama, then
he might not be so complimentary. But I think it's awesome.
Which also, when you're confident in what you do, you're
(31:05):
able to give compliments like that to somebody. Correct.
Speaker 8 (31:07):
I agree, well, speaking of coach Prospeci sticking in the
same vein his son Shadoor as Shadors as you know,
is getting a lot of attention as well, performing well
this season, maybe in the running for the Heisman. But
Vegas is apparently biting their nails over the situation because
according to bet MGM, Sanders is plus eighteen hundred to
(31:28):
win the Heisman this year, and twenty point three percent
of the bets for the Heisman winner are all for
Shador Stevens or Stevens, Shad or Sanders, So I know.
Speaker 1 (31:39):
You apparently we all want to keep saying chadkor Stevenson
the box are Shador Sanders.
Speaker 8 (31:44):
So yeah, Vegas would be had a lot of money,
as you know, one hundred dollars equals eighteen hundred payout
for a plus eighteen hundred, So so they're all, you know.
Speaker 1 (31:53):
Feeling the heat. Midweeker Majors. Probably more of a major
story than meets Maya because I'm not a gambling man
like Rich Davis's. But I think it's kind in a
mid right now because it's so early, Like I think,
as Danny g would say, you know, prisoners of the moment.
So far, he's looking like a superstar. He's mentored by
the Goat, him and Tom Brady have a great relationship.
The potential's endless, limitless. But I think it's still too
(32:14):
early to have that conversation right now. But I think
it's like a mid story, not be that's so many
Not because I don't like the story, because I think
I do like wagering and gambling. Yeah, I think that
he's not gonna win the Heisman a less on the
crazy happens. They're about to play two tough teams that
are gonna whoop their ass. Usc is waiting next week.
This week, Oregon will probably take care of him. So
(32:34):
I mean, Caleb Williams, there's other guys that are, in
my opinion, prime to be the Heisman Trophy winner. The
shakour Cha court cheez Chadore Sanders story is fascinating. You
know what it's like. It's like when a likable guy
gets money going their way in a game. You know,
sometimes Vegas odds move because someone's likable. That's the story here,
(32:56):
all right, you're better better still, like a Caleb Williams.
Speaker 8 (32:59):
Type, quick, Paul, how many hours of sleep to each
of you get a night?
Speaker 1 (33:03):
Bro? I wish I got more, but probably like five
to six tops, Yeah, like six hours at the most.
Speaker 8 (33:08):
Well, that's nothing compared to blue Jay's pitcher, and I
might put you this name. You say Kikuchira, you say Kukuchi.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
You don't like to say that on Fox?
Speaker 2 (33:16):
I think so.
Speaker 1 (33:18):
He don't beat that round. He was pulled from.
Speaker 8 (33:20):
In during the fifth inning of Tuesday's game, and the
beat writer Caitlin McGrath. McGrath said that apparently Kikuchi believes
he cramped up. Because he did, he only got eleven
hours of sleep, short of his normal thirteen to fourteen
hours a night that he gets. Apparently, apparently he goes
to sleep at eleven pm every night and sleeps till
(33:42):
one pm the next day.
Speaker 1 (33:43):
Wow, he must take those edibles that Rich takes more
than me. Yo major, You say Kakuchi. I think that's
major because that sounds ridiculous. Ridiculously, that sounds ridiculous. Thirteen
hours sleep, I can't even for a long wait, that's
that's a ridiculu story. That's like he took like eighteen
melatonin to fall sleep for thirteen Susy rip van Winkle.
(34:05):
Who is this guy? What's his first name? You say?
You say? You say? You say, no time for because
he's sleeping. He's sleeping so long. Last name cocooch. No,
look at it this way. You're supposed to get six
to eight hours sleep. You know, I have a little
kids now, and I didn't realize when people would say
they gotta get to bed. If my kids don't get
to bed by eight something the latest, they are irritable
(34:29):
waking up for school. And that's like ten to twelve
hours for a kid, right, And there's still irritable hours
as an adult. If I get to sleep between midnight
and one and wake up at six or seven, that's like,
that's an adult skein a little stiff because he slept
for twelve hours. Johnny starts to like, you know, thirteen
to fourteen to night. That's ridiculous. Hey, you wake up,
(34:51):
you're a brick amrness was setting man, That's ridiculous. That's ridiculous.
It's ridiculous.
Speaker 8 (34:59):
If you're at Delta Sky Miles member, you're most likely
aware of the recent changes that Delta enacted that have it.
They're pissed off a lot of their members. The new
changes put a cap on the number of entries you
get to their lounges and tighten the qualifying criteria to
be like an elite status you ask why am I
bringing this up? Because, as you this was announced Wednesday,
(35:20):
just seven days and we talked about it here after
Tom Brady was announced as their strategic advisor. Remember he's
like the advisor of like greatness for Delta. Yeah, so
naturally everyone has taken to social media to blame Brady for.
Speaker 1 (35:35):
These changes that Delta have made.
Speaker 8 (35:38):
They're saying like, yeah, they say, like he redefines what
it means to be elite at Delta. Like he said,
what was tom Brady's advice to Delta? He was probably
like who needs a sky club? When I fly? I
show up, tell the pilot that I'm here, and the
plane leaves. So like, people are just pissed at Tom
Brady and blaming him for these changes.
Speaker 1 (35:55):
But for me, it's a funny story, but it's a
mid story. I don't think Tom Brady has anything to
do with this at all. But I get what they're saying,
like what does he know about the average man? He
needs a little sky club? And you know, I don't
think Tom Brady has any say on what they're doing
as far as their sky club. This is a mid story.
But I have a major story that has to do
(36:17):
with lounges in an airport. There's no worse feeling than
traveling with someone that has status that you don't. We
were worse, Danny g. We were going to that Mexico
City game Monday night football. It was Chiefs and Chargers.
A couple of years back, Cavino and I had the
opportunity with our old old company to go to that game.
(36:39):
We're at the airport hanging with one of our coworkers
and Mark Sanchez, who's now doing a great job. We're
chopping it up, having laughs, and then they're like, we're
gonna go in the Delta lounge and we're like, al right,
by god, we didn't have it. Yeah, it's the weakest feeling,
like you're like, we're going through the boys room, like
we're going through the men's room. We're little boy, Bye, guys,
(37:00):
we're gonna go to the Delta, ledg, where are you
guys gonna go? I should work hard, you go to
coffee Bean Pine now. But what do you think about that?
Tom Brady say, Delta. It's like poorly assigned anger, Yes,
misplaced there So.
Speaker 8 (37:13):
I'm sure we all remember this, the miserable scene of
the now Titans QB Will Levis at this year's draft.
Speaker 2 (37:19):
Remember the twenty twenty three draft.
Speaker 1 (37:20):
You're supposed to be chosen in like as one of
the top picks. Yeah, he was supposed to go on
the first round.
Speaker 8 (37:24):
He was supposed to go in the first round. Ended
up going thirty thirty third overall. But remember that scene
of him sitting there with his like really hot girlfriend
that got a lot of attention. Yeah, well, unfortunately the
two of them have broken up since it was just
announced this week on social media that Will and his
girlfriend Gia Duddy have officially broken up.
Speaker 1 (37:42):
So he wasn't the first pick there either.
Speaker 2 (37:43):
H There you go.
Speaker 8 (37:45):
After that awkward moment where she went viral, Apparently she
landed like deals with Loreal Burger, King, lots of other
advertisers and got hundreds of thousands of followers on social media, so.
Speaker 1 (37:55):
It worked out for her.
Speaker 8 (37:56):
I guess she made the most of this midweek or major.
Speaker 1 (37:59):
It's a mid story. Yeah, I don't even I don't
know or do you follow her?
Speaker 2 (38:02):
I don't.
Speaker 1 (38:03):
I don't know her, but hey, we'll be capitalizing off
the moment. But I remember her, I remember that whole story.
Kind of mid She's available is she saying there's a chance,
Rich Davis.
Speaker 4 (38:13):
I'm so.
Speaker 1 (38:14):
I'm looking at her on Instagram. Yeah, you know what
before I say it's mid let's get a look Sie.
He cast he can do better. Oh that's rude, not
you know what? Yeah, that's mean. I'm sorry. I don't
like I don't like girls with like super curly hair.
You know that like Jersey witch. You know that Jersey
crunchy curly hair. Look.
Speaker 8 (38:31):
The opinions of Rich Davis to not reflect that of
the Cavino and Rich show.
Speaker 1 (38:36):
I'm sorry you don't have likes her dislike like crunchy
curly hair. I'll be sure to tell my daughter Melody
that you dislike her hair when I she has crunchy,
wet looking curly hair like a Jersey girl. Yeah, yeah,
that is, then tell her I don't like Yeah.
Speaker 2 (38:50):
Right, I'm saving the best. Are you done? Are you?
Speaker 1 (38:53):
Are you good on a follower to be nice?
Speaker 2 (38:55):
I could a follower to be nice?
Speaker 8 (38:57):
All right, I'm saving the best, real lis This is
my favorite story by everyone's favorite tiger King.
Speaker 2 (39:02):
Joe Exotic is back in the news.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
Yes, I know, I know you miss him in prison.
Speaker 8 (39:08):
He's in prison, still serving a twenty one year sentence
for the murder for higher plot of Carol Baskin. As
we know, he's apparently written a letter to the other
Tiger King and that Cincinnati Bagels QB. Joe Burrow Exotic
has asked Joe Burrow for twenty thousand dollars to help
him get out of federal prison and pay his legal fees,
believing that Burrow should help him because they share the
(39:31):
Tiger King nickname.
Speaker 2 (39:33):
He's said.
Speaker 8 (39:34):
The letter argued that Tiger King is joke, Joe Exotic's
trademarkt intellectual property, says he's been wrongfully in prison and
that hold on this is the best that Joe Burrow
should do it as a good deed and that karma
will come his way and that God will give him
a super Bowl win if he does it.
Speaker 1 (39:50):
Is this Midweek or Bank story? This is the weakest story. However, Yes, however,
if it was twenty twenty major, if we were still
in the pandemic, this would have been the biggest story
ever ever. Yeah, I'm changing my tune. I think this
(40:11):
is major. I don't please tell me? Okay, you what
because you're you're Joe, order something, Joe Exotic.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
In three years rich right after you order something on
door Dash as you're starving. Yeah, locked inside, I.
Speaker 1 (40:23):
Said, the Bengals are zero and two. Burrow's banged up.
What if he helped Joe Exotic and all of a
sudden turn the season around twenty thousand dollars? That's nothing,
That is enough. That's for Joe Burrow, the guy. Guy's
making fifty seven million dollars a year, guaranteed two hundreds
of the million dollars. Do you think Joe Burrow's debating
it like he did provide a lot of entertainment when
(40:44):
I had nothing else to do a few years back. Yeah, yeah,
I like the story. Help help Joe Exotic, Joe Burrow,
Thank you father, Thank you for ten buy your oh yum.
Speaker 7 (40:57):
Guys will have a trade to announce in the NFL
just a little bit. But there's other action happening in
the National Football League today, and a lot of it
based in the windy city of Chicago. Justin Fields spoke
with reporters not once, but twice clarifying comments that he
made about his play in coaching earlier this morning. Came
back this afternoon and had this to say, I.
Speaker 2 (41:16):
Love you guys, But you know, I get that you guys'
jobs are to get clicked.
Speaker 5 (41:20):
So it's like when you take my quote out of
context when we can't just say that if you paint
the picture on the inside out.
Speaker 7 (41:26):
Like y'all, Field says he's not blaming the coaches and
that he would take the blame himself. The Bears did
release veteran quarterback Nathan Peterman today, and Bears defensive coordinator
Alan Williams has submitted his letter of resignation today. The
NFL Network reports that the NFL is not involved and
denied reports that Hallis Hall was rated today by the
(41:47):
FBI in connection with Williams PT least beat the Braves
in ten six ' five guys back to you, Thank.
Speaker 9 (41:53):
You, Dan.
Speaker 1 (41:53):
And we were just saying the other day, Dan, you
and Danny Jane, we're all saying how it was apparent
that the Vikings were missing that run game when there
was the Thursday night game where they just they just
seemed like they were missing a Dalvin Cook. They were
missing they were missing an extra weapon. So oh yeah,
that cam Aker should help. This week's reasons to be
(42:18):
on the Coach Prime band. So you have a list
of reasons why to be this week. This week's not
like of all time, not from all the legendary things
he did in baseball and football. This week there's a
list of reasons why you should jump on that bandwagon.
Speaker 2 (42:33):
Better get them trademarks in quick.
Speaker 1 (42:35):
I know, yeah, yeah, you know what. He's trademarked a
lot of stuff he found for trademarks. And since we're
running out of time now, we'll talk about it on Overpromised,
our Wednesday bonus podcast again on Fox Sports Radios, YouTube
page and wherever you stream so you can watch or listen,
just search for Kavino in its Overpromise. Some athletes that
are getting with some celebrity mooty, Well, we'll talk about
(42:56):
some couples in the world of sports and entertainment where
you Because we couldn't fit that Kim Kardashian ascid into
the show. Yeah we couldn't, just too big, just couldn't
fit it in. But it's a matter of will these
relationships affect their play on the field. We'll talk about that.
Plus I got a parlay and a teaser for this
week's NFL Action, So that'll be all on our Bonus Pod,
(43:17):
which starts in eight minutes, so hang tight for that now.
I had one thought before you get out of here.
If that's cool with you, sure, But just another reminder,
Tomorrow is Thursday already, so get ready for another edition
of old School when fifty hits on the clock on
Thursday's Cavino and Rich Spectacular. So let me ask you
(43:38):
how many teams in Major League Baseball thirty? I analyze
the payrolls because they always talk about payroll like, how
you know, did you know you buy? How many times
as a Yankees fan? And I never said this too
because I hated the sentiment, But how many times has
a fan said to you, oh, the Yankees trying to
buy into the World Series? That was like the sentiment
for the last twenty five years, right, Yeah, they haven't won,
(44:00):
you know, which is always odd to me because their
core players were always homegrown talent and they didn't get
obviously enough credit for that. Some free agents here and there,
but it was a great mix of free agency and
great young talent. The one thing you can never take abandon,
the one thing you can never take away from the
Yankees is that Pasada Jeter, Marian Rivera, Pettitt, Bernie Williams.
(44:24):
Those guys were homegrown, but they never went anywhere else
because the Yankees paid them, So you could be Yankees
were trying to buy it. I'm a Mets fan, I
don't like the Yankees, but I always keeping those players.
I thought the sentiment was not that they bought a championship.
They were just able to keep good players because how
many squads were not able to keep their starts. Well,
you know who's doing it right now. Oyls had so
many big players come from their organization. If you look
(44:46):
at the Royals. If the Royals were able to keep
all their players from the nineties, early two thousands, so
many big names. You know who's doing that right now?
I know who signed a lot of their guys long term.
That it's unfortunate. They're gonna be good for a decade.
Settle that and Atlanta, Oh yeah, Atlanta. Every Atlanta young
star player is signed for quite a while. So Atlanta's
(45:07):
gonna just win one hundred games for the next ten years.
It's gonna be like the nineties all over again. They
just need to win World Series this time. But I
looked at all the payrolls. Top three Mets, Yankees, Padres
whatever they all have in common, they all stink. No postseason. Yeah,
Baltimore twenty eight of thirty, Tampa Bay twenty seven of thirty,
(45:28):
Minnesota sixteen of thirty, Houston, Texas, and Seattle the teams
that are battling in the West seven four. Texas Rangers
spent a lot of money. They'refore Seattle Mariners eighteen, Toronto
just breaking the top ten. So money, payroll and baseball
success is clearly a myth. Well, you can't say analytics either,
(45:50):
because the biggest criticism with the Yankees this year is
that they rely too much on analytics. So what do
you attribute it to? Just the teams finding chemistry's good coaching? Well,
look at the NL teams that are in the playoff mix,
the Brewers nineteen, the teams in the wildcard hunt. Now,
the Dodgers are six and the Phillies are five. They're
(46:12):
in the top ten, but you know they're not number one.
Dodgers in phillyes spend money. But teams in the wildcard
hunt in the National League Diamondbacks twenty one of thirty,
and if they're twenty one, all they need to do
is catch fire when it matters, and it's you know,
Miami Possible, Miami Marlins, the twenty second payroll of thirty teams,
Cubs number twelve, and the Cincinnati Reds who are still
(46:33):
hanging around to twenty three. So all these teams that
spend no money are in the mix. Meanwhile, Matts, Yankees, Padres,
A lot of these teams are garbage. So she can't
pay for chemistry. You just can't pay for chemistryses that reminder.
They've learned that in a lot of industries. Right, all right,
well listen, we'll see you guys. Manya. Actually we'll see
in five minutes on the bonus pot. Until then, are
Riven there at you? Maybe see you in the over
(46:54):
Promised land. Let's go
