FSR Guess what happened again? Triggered and everything you said

(00:25):
you were mad at yesterday sort of came to fruition.
I think you willed this to app sportsmanship met another
walk off, staying so close two games behind the Braves.
Take a listen to the call by Gary Cohen on
s N y three two.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
From Domingas.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
Wackers folks on deep left center field, Beckhos Mullins near
the wall, Jesse Wakers.

Speaker 1 (00:49):
First home on that's a New York Man. Here's a
look off shot in the bottom of the line. Had
the Wits do it again? Put the game one day
home Waker? They take two out of three form the Oiels.
Now he did everything I was Sam accused Alvarez of doing.
Did you hear about this is? I think did? He stopped?

(01:12):
He just stared there. He took it in. He pointed
at the fans. He stopped. He stopped. Alvarez never stopped,
and we were like, yeah, that was pretty awesome.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
Man.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
He was just fired up. He lost control. He won
the game, he was in the moment, he had reason
and right to celebrate. But I was saying, if you
miss Yesterdays show. He was like, yeah, but you don't
stop the game. You don't stop, you keep on moving. Well,
it's the walk off. And we made the rule that
if it's a walk off, this is not a home
run on the fifth inning, or you got out of
a jam as a picture in the one game when

(01:43):
you win the game on the picture's mound, or on
a walk off. I think celebrations in baseball need to
be amped up. I think what Winker did today was ridiculous.
I just I don't. I don't, I just I just
showed it to him. Yeah, this one was the next
level walking off the baseline. I'm staying consistent with Rich.
You know, a walk off, a walk throwing his helmet

(02:05):
on the ground. I know. I think you can moon
walk around the bases. You should do the ray base gun.
You know, the ray gun dance wolves. You could do
those around the bases if you want, because you just
won the game. But this was exactly what you were
saying you hated yesterday because he stopped dead in his
tracks between first, between home and first, this guy delivered.
Jesse Winker really hammed it up. So I really think

(02:28):
the Mets are trying to make a statement here with this.
I mean, it's a big week for the Mets, but
that was pretty dramatic for a Jesse Winkers sort of
walk his first home run as a Met. Yeah, and
as you heard Dan Byer say in the update, there
are two games behind the Braves for that last wild card.
And what's frustrating is that the Braves beat the Phillies
last night and they play seven, I think of their

(02:49):
next twelve games against the Phillies. It was dramatic, and
as a Mets fan, I'm like, come on, Phillies, take
care of the Braves. Stop. It's the first time ever
I'm like, go Philly. So now, really, the question is,
you know we made a new rule yesterday, Bill maher
style Okay, rich Aredy explained that you walk one off,
you win the game, You're entitled to your celebration. Beat it.

(03:11):
Anyone that has a problem. However, this one was more
next level right than yesterday's that we discussed, So you
got to take a look and see for yourself. I
applaud it. I think it's fantastic. I think as baseball
fans the players should lean hard into this. That builds

(03:31):
a rivalry, it builds excitement, you know, it's it's everything
you want from your team. Rich you must be pumped
just seeing that, and that's what it's all about. Not
only does it pump up the team, pumps up the fans,
and that feeling is contagious. Man, when your team starts
playing like that and it's electric, that's that buzz you want.
Ask that chemistry you're looking for, and I'll magic. I'll
post it at covin on rich on our Instagram story

(03:53):
if you want to see the exaggerated celebration. But we
got to get it too football because everyone else's mind
is on the end FL, the National Football League. This
goes or should start with this meme that Danny g
sent us. The meme reads, it feels so good to
be back starting this weekend, which officially starts tomorrow because

(04:17):
Thursday's the new Friday, right, Yeah, I mean you can
start tonight if you want. Starting this weekend, there will
be college football or an NFL game every week all
the way through Super Bowl in February. So life changes.
I get wait and I love it. That's like great,
the greatest news anyone could hear. Right now, Well, the

(04:38):
NFL changes your life. And I'm not even overstating this.
It's your week to week just completely changes your viewing habits.
You're I mean, But then again, who is in an
NFL fan? It's it's king here in the United States
every every week. Kind is true. You know, that's an

(04:58):
interesting question in itself. You might not be a college
football fan, but if you're a baseball or NBA fan,
like you're a sports fan, it's safe to say that
I'd say over ninety percent of people have to be
NFL fans. The flip doesn't work. If you're a football fan,
doesn't mean you're a baseball fan or an NBA fan. Yeah,
you could be like, oh, like hockey. If you like anything,

(05:19):
there's a good chance you like football. Yeah, I agree
with it's a one way street. You could be like, dude,
I love football, but yeah, you know, baseball is not
my thing. You'll never hear someone say I love something,
but football football is you know, King of the Hill,
Cream of the crop. Ooh yeah, hot dog eating too. Yeah,
if you like hot dog eating, I'm sure you like football. Now,

(05:41):
I was saying, there was a viral video. It's funny.
It's not like the funniest thing, but it did go viral.
There was a guy that yeah, but people love it. Yeah.
I don't think it's funny, but women especially love this one.
I love it. And maybe men, your your wives, your
girlfriends might not get word of this viral video. Who knows,
but maybe you could take a few notes from it,

(06:01):
steal it for yourself. And by the way, speaking of which,
the NFL, I think more and more female fans every year.
It used to be when I when I feel like
I was a kid, I feel like my mom was
the anomaly who loved NFL football. Now your mom just
loved Jim Jim Plunkett. I think that's true. Oh I
had the hats for him, Mitchie le Alzato. So listen

(06:23):
to this clip. A dude gives his girlfriend essentially two
weeks notice, like he's leaving a job. Take a listen, Dan,
this too.

Speaker 4 (06:33):
Is it means that loud.

Speaker 5 (06:38):
Kelly, this is to inform you that two weeks from
today is the start of the NFL season. The past
several months I have been engaged, loving.

Speaker 1 (06:46):
Helpful and thoughtful husband and father.

Speaker 5 (06:49):
However, I must with me miss inform you that I
am putting in my two weeks notice. I will no
longer be available for work on Sundays ten am to
ten pm, make evenings North Thursday evenings to the conflicting commitments.
I'll also be unavailable every Saturday due to conflicting commitments

(07:10):
in the house of today Am.

Speaker 1 (07:12):
I took a maam the next morning.

Speaker 5 (07:14):
This will be impacted on the February in early March.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
You figure, I mean, she can't even get through it.
So funny, this guy nails it.

Speaker 6 (07:25):
I mean, listen, he typed out the letter, handing her
the letter like she was the boss.

Speaker 1 (07:30):
I think that's what kind of meane if you couldn't
make that out again. Now is his two week notice
to his wife because he'll be unavailable. He's been a
great husband all year, attentive. Yeah, he's unavailable Sunday from
ten am to ten p and Mondays and Thursdays Saturdays
for college football. Because life changes drastically. That's really what
it comes down to. So that's his two week notice

(07:51):
of I'm not as available as I once was. Here
you go. She thought it was a hoot. I do
think contrary to what you might say, like really, broll
does your life changes? And I think for the diehard
football fans, I get excited, like I wake up Sunday
morning like rare in a go. Let me get a breakfast, burrito,

(08:13):
my coffee, Let me pull me lay out my bets
while what parlays or teasers am I doing? You might
be heading to a bar, running into your old football pals,
right your whole company made change, setting your lineup, dude,
trying to decide what games are gonna be my Sunday
ticket split screen. It really does revolutionize your Sundays. You know,

(08:34):
you know how you notice because when football's over, the
weekend hits and you're like, what do I usually do?
It's kind of a cool feeling too, to put the
nah to every request that comes your way, Like if
your girlfriend or wife wants to do the home depot run,
You're like, nah, not to. Your daughter wants you to
take her to the mall, You're like, nah, why Dad,

(08:55):
because it's football. Your dad's on the radio. I can't. Oh,
it's work. But you know you don't have to be
on the radio. You're just a fan. You got action
on the game your team is playing. Nah. Sorry, honey's
football season.

Speaker 4 (09:08):
I got a question actually for Rich do you think
your excitement for football would be different if the forty
nine ers were like nine and eight or you know,
like a middle of the road team. Because this is
such an enormous season starts strong. I've seen you know,
I always start out with the enthusiast.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
He starts off with sure, but when your team is
a top five projected team, super Bowl potential, you do
get more excited. But I've said it always. The NFL
is the one sport where you could watch a game
between any two teams and be involved. I'll be honest
with you. I can't watch a White Sox you know,
Twins game right now. I can't watch that NBA. I

(09:53):
watched the Twins padres just to see the fans fight.
I watch that that clip. I can't watch an NBA
regular season game. If you told me, like a dude,
it's a Clippers, you know, sixers. Maybe that's most people.
Rich You're not alone there.

Speaker 4 (10:12):
I do think that though Rich and a forty nine
Ers fans are different than all the other thirty one teams.
And I know we're talking in a broad sense of
excitement of football, but your team just sorry lost the
super Bowl that you were at in overtime, and it
is your opportunity to like re like, all right, this
is like, this is it. I just think that the

(10:34):
excitement for the upcoming season, and even with Ayuk and
Williams stuff, for a forty nine Ers fan is even
like notches above everyone.

Speaker 1 (10:42):
Yeah, it's another year of party, having reps. Everyone's healthy,
knock on what to start the year? And Dan Byer,
You're right, the forty nine Ers want to do something
that it seems like no one could do, which is
lose a Super Bowl and then go back and win
in the next year, which seems to be like an
impossible feat. Yeah. What a great story, right, And that's
what you're hoping for this season. I've seen it time

(11:04):
and time again. Rich always starts off strong. If his
team stinks, he definitely fades you. Hear it with his
Mets too. He started caring about the Mets again just recently. Yeah,
because listen, the goal of baseball. I've always said, if
the Mets could keep me interested until football starts, Metsi's
you've done your job. Stay like if you if you

(11:26):
could keep me interested, Like if I'm caring about the Mets,
you know, Baltimore Orioles today, and I'm gonna keep my
eye on the Phillies Braves tonight. The fact that I care,
I appalled the New York Mets were keeping me still
in it because the years where All Star Break You're like,
all right, come on, let's go. That's miserable. Well again,
the reminder here is is that football is here, and

(11:49):
now it's time to hand it in your two week
notice to your wife and let her know that life's
about the change. You know those Sunday plans. She has
that TJ Max run, We're going to hos Go to
get that double chunk chocolate chip cookie. No you're not,
No you're not, because we got football now. So hand
in your two week notice. That's why Fridays are the

(12:11):
night where I've always recommended to you know, listen, there's
a lot of women love football, like my wife will
watch me, So I don't relate to that as much.
But I get it. There's a lot of wives and
girlfriends that don't care. That's when you have to make
Friday nights special. Football season is when Friday night becomes
date night. It's a great reminder. Yeah, baby, where do
you want to go? Eat? Where do you want to go?

(12:33):
Where you are melting pot? Let's go somewhere special inflation?
Coo you more like what you want? Popey bread? Yeah,
so I never whatever you want. It's a reminder and
you know what you know. If you're not a big
college I like college football, but Danny, much like you,
I'll watch the big matchups, but I'm not watching a
random like see noon on Saturday game. They're Friday night,

(12:55):
big ten games. So Friday night for me, just check
it off. Can't do it game, won't. It goes with
Riches's theory here where life changes drastically, and it goes
to that old Cavino and Rich theory that we've been
saying for one hundred and twenty years now and more
rich than me. But he always says that you have
to date a woman through a full calendar year to

(13:15):
see if she could deal with those drastic changes in
life and deal with the football season. Every season because
your life it changes, right like through winter, spring, summer,
and fall. All you have to do is call the
people act different and their patterns change. I knew my

(13:35):
wife from the minute I met her. I had a
feeling like this girl could be the one, But I'm like,
I got to stick by my own role. I proposed
my wife a year after dating her because I was like,
all right, we made it through all the seasons. I know,
because in the summer, even what if she's like a
real beach goer, rich like they're in a bikini but
not like in a turtleneck. Yeah, I was like, let
me see you, let me see where the shuder off. No,

(13:57):
but I think imagine you are a fanatic where every
Saturday college football, from the minute you wake up Sunday.
You're the guy that's like, I got four fantasy teams
and I got two parlays going. I got there and
all day and night. That's going to be a shock
to a woman that's not a sports Fand like I said,
a lot of women are sports ends more than ever before.

(14:19):
But there's still a lot of people that would be like,
what do you do every weekend? Right? Yeah, he got
to brunch with my friends. Yeah, we're not going out
to brunch with your friends, but I came. If I
if I knew what a trash TV fan my girl,
my current girlfriend is, I might have to rethink this.
So I should have followed our own advice, because I
didn't know my whole life would revolve around Big Brother

(14:42):
and Survivor and all these garbage shows. The vander pumpsnow fans,
Dad Buyer, I know you love that one, but I
didn't know vander Pump when she was on Real Housewives. See,
I didn't know my whole life would revolve around that.
So to be fair, you gotta let the flip side
the wife. You know that you're all about your foosball.
And again, life changes in two weeks. I'm so excited

(15:04):
two freaking weeks. And by the way, Dan Buyer is
proof in the pudding. I don't know what pudding it is,
but hey, what else do you do though? Figgy putting,
Figgi pudding, banana pudding, banana bread pudding, damn byre is
the proof that every every guy, because I look at
Dan as like a guys guy. Every dude has one
guilty pleasure of nonsense. He watches for dB, it's the

(15:25):
vander Pumps for you. It might be like like Danny G.
Danny G couldn't watch more is Blonds, Like, yeah, I
watch the Lakers, I watch the Dodgers.

Speaker 7 (15:34):
Is that?

Speaker 1 (15:34):
But I also love Love Island? Love is Blind? You
watch the Yeah, I Love is Blind? Match was one
of your perfect matches, one that me and the wife watched.
You gotta find those bonding shows. I think sometimes you
just live in separate lives, right but rich? Based on
the two week notice that's gone viral and it's so cute,

(15:56):
isn't it. What are some other things that you need
to do to pair? Any other tips or steps? Oh?
I just thinks to get in line the gear? I
think gear. Danny G's right every season. I'm not the
guy that's big on let me go buy another one
hundred and fifty two hundred dollars jersey. But I did
buy a fresh new forty nine ers cool T shirt
I found on a website. Maybe if you blow a

(16:17):
lot of money, like at the bar or gambling, maybe
you'd like take it out now so she doesn't notice.

Speaker 6 (16:22):
Yeah, or for your kids, somebody gifted big Baby CoA
a Max Crosby jersey. Oh yeah, he already can't fit
already too small. It's gonna have to get him a
Raiders shirt.

Speaker 1 (16:33):
He needs an adult size already. I think one new
piece of gear, whether it be a T shirt, hat,
a jersey, if you're a jersey type of that's good.
I like that. I think we already said if your
TV's whack, you gotta step your game up. We've made
that rule of a million, you know, not telling you
to gamble, but if you do, remember DraftKings Coat, see
our show. But replen your account. Replenish your account. Go,
let me get my balance going. Come up with a strategy.

(16:55):
You know what I do before every football season two
And I don't think this is because designating your spot
at the bar, now, that's tough, unless you know. The
bartender when I used to have on the Arts day
was like, yeah, man, I'm here every are every week.
I gotta be regular for a little while to start
even calling that shot unless you want to start, you know,
I don't know. I do someone a twenty here. There's
a new place in my town. I might have to

(17:16):
establish that territory. But if you do the Sunday ticket
at home covid. You know, you've got to make the
costco run for the snacks for the game day snacks.
Also replenish your your fridge in the garage with beer
and yeah, being home, man, You're right, I'm like being home.
I don't have to worry about it. Is this corny
of me? Or prepared? Because we do a show on
Fox Sports before every season, I go through every team

(17:41):
just to give my myself homework. Essentially, I'm like, all right, coach, quarterback,
key offensive players, key defensive players. You like I reminder, like,
what's the name of their stadium? Again? Like I do,
like almost a refresher course, because you know, the other day,
I'm in the kitchen with you guys, and I think
all of you got it wrong to blow up your spot.
I guess it's a tough one. I said, hey, guys,

(18:04):
where a planet Earth is Jimmy Garoppolo And all of
us forgot because I had seen it, Dann Byer, do
you know where Jimmy g is? The rams? But you
could see where during the off season someone's like, oh
should yeah, crap where some of it gets lost in
the shuffle. Yeah, Because there are times you're like, oh,
that's right. This guy did get traded. I forgot where
was so yeah, the great example. He's in Philadelphia, yes, correct,

(18:28):
So you gotta do the You know, my dad is Fresher.
My dad would always buy like a like a hard newspaper,
like an old school newspaper. They do the annual like
insert to a lot of the papers of like the preview.
My dad makes notes and maybe I get it from him,
but I feel like you got to investigate. Have Richie
a post it for every team? No, but you got
to start all the cornerbacks, all the coaches in all

(18:51):
the stadiums. Here's a post it. I go from left
to right for all the divisions and there you go.
You go to all the updates and as you can
see him, Roppolo plays for LA. Now you got to
start with the AFC East and each team. Literally familiarize
yourself with off season moves you may have forgotten. And
as you can see, Kenny Pickett is not an Eagle.

(19:14):
So my dad's chart that's right here? Am I posted? Am? I? Uh?
It's he has some alphabetized the number. If you go,
it's L four right there. There you have it, So hey,
get prepared for football. I thought that was a fun video.
Two weeks in two weeks, put your two week notice
it life changes, and even something as simple as hold
on Rich, hold on, hold on Paus, not even your

(19:35):
two week notice. You always you already made this point
kind of Friday nights. You really gotta go a little
above and beyond to be there, to be present, you know,
with your family, because you are occupied and there's so
much coming up. You got baseball playoffs before you know it, right,
you got all these trunk or treats on the way. Yeah,
you got a lot of things going on. You got football,

(19:56):
you got these fights coming up. I say, you really
make these two weeks count.

Speaker 1 (20:47):
Yesterday we said there's no such thing as an excessive
celebration if it's a walk off. But man, he leaned
into this. And I'm not saying this just because I'm
a Mets fan, No, but I watched it again. He
slams it, It takes his helmet off, slam Stopsta in front
of the dugout, flexes like he's Bruce Lee, and then
starts rounding around the bases, trotting like he's trot Nixon.

(21:08):
It's incredible. It was like all out. He went all out.
I don't think I've ever seen a home run celebration
that elaborate. I know. You know what though, all right,
maybe he wasn't listening to us. Francisco Alvarez did get
a lot of criticism for his walk off celebrations, so
maybe that's why he leaned into it like one off

(21:31):
that Yeah, you thought that was bad, You're not gonna
tell us how to celebrate our victories. We're in this
weak care. Maybe it was a little nanny nanny poof,
poof to everybody that criticized earlier this. So we think
he pulled a Peter Griffin. You think that's babe, You
think dad's baby. Wait till I hit my walk off
And he did, and he leaned into that hard. I
guess if you're gonna walk off, walk off hard, walk hard,

(21:51):
but do do go cocks at coming on retch at
Rich Davis, it's uploading now. The internet here is uh dude,
DoD have dial up from nineteen ninety seven energy go
go wireless. Don't you feel like that sometimes? Like we're
in flight here. I think it's your computer over there,
the Wi Fi. The WiFi is booty. He doesn't know
how to get on the WiFi. Let's be honest. Oh

(22:13):
hold on, I'm using instant Messenger.

Speaker 6 (22:15):
Oh wait, you're doing that on your cell phone. Rich
I think we know what your cell phone is backed up.

Speaker 4 (22:20):
Thank God for the Internet.

Speaker 1 (22:24):
I know why you keep searching, Livy Donald d That's
why that's not true. Search just thinking here, searching where's Garoppolo?
Over and over again?

Speaker 7 (22:36):
Where tracker.

Speaker 1 (22:40):
Oh Man all you know. Can you know there's there's
a million directions we could go in, and I know
five minutes ago you're like, what do you want to
get to next? And I'm going to pull an audible,
like I'm Peyton Manning at the line of scrimmage. We're
not going to talk about Sister Jean. We are going
to talk about Sister Jean. We're going to talk about
a bunch of stuff. But I saw a clip of
the fact of the matter is this stephen A Smith

(23:02):
was talking about Tom Brady and Peyton Manning. Okay, and
we don't need to play the club. Was it amped up,
stephen A? Or like I'm tired, stephen A, I'm subdued,
step Was it I can't believe it, steven A? Or
was it really hyped up? Stephen A? Almost like a hybrid.
He wasn't like fact of the matter, but he wasn't

(23:23):
like a same dude. He was asking Tom Brady and
Peyton Manning, who your top five quarterbacks in the NFL.
And I'm not one for lists, because I don't know
you could argue it all day, but Tom Brady and
Peyton Manning arguably the two best quarterbacks of the last

(23:44):
twenty five years. How about Peyton list of Cobra Kai
I like her. They both gave this the same four,
and I think it's very difficult to argue. Patrick Mahomes,
the Josh Allen who everyone loves, Joe Burrow and Lamar Jackson.

(24:09):
Tom Brady refused to give his fifth, and Peyton Mannings
sort of danced around. They're like, oh, you know, I
really do like Justin Herbert, but I don't know. So
it posted the question who is your number five? Who
is number five? Work for? Who's your number five? Because
I think everyone in the room I'd be shocked if

(24:29):
we all didn't agree that that's a safe top four,
right Josh Allen. The real takeaway mark that we have
a core four in the NFL right now. We have
a mount rushmore of top four quarterbacks right now. I
think we can all agree those are the four. And
you know what the commonality is if you think about it.
We've talked about it before, but the stacked AFC. These

(24:50):
are all AFC quarterbacks. This is that's why the playoffs
every year there's disappointment like Lamar couldn't do it again,
Mahomes did it? Oh, Burrow's hurt. Oh, is this the
year Josh Allen gets over the hump? And forget Herbert?
We've been mentioned Herbert because Manning brought him up. Is
this the year that he finally gets that playoff? W
I mean, he definitely comes to mind right away when

(25:12):
you think of who could be the fifth? He comes
to mind, but so do other quarterbacks. I think I
just thought of, you know, Jalen Hurts, you know, thinking
about him, you were hyping him up. I thought that
until a year ago. Yeah, Burrough, Jackson, Alan Mahomes. Those
are the four. It's almost undebatable. The answer is that
Gardner Minshew the The fifth is where everyone's gonna have

(25:32):
a different answer. But I think I think there's a
really solid answer if you go by stats and what
the potential should be. And for me that's Dak.

Speaker 6 (25:41):
I was, oh, well, I have some stats that are similar. Okay,
who do you think this is? Forty one hundred passing
yards twenty three tds only five picks, one hundred and
sixty seven rushing yards three rushing tds.

Speaker 1 (25:54):
Tua Nope, Baker, nope, No.

Speaker 6 (25:57):
The guy has a guy that was he was mean
to me and a couple other media guys at the
Super Bowl, J.

Speaker 1 (26:02):
Streuss, c J. Stroudhi, Ben Mallard. I heard those are incredible. Yeah, yeah,
he's right there, he's right on the cup two of
a of a right there, number five, Especially when you
tell me those stats. I didn't realize they were that
good man, so heard J Stroud. I heard our pal
Rob Parker, Rob Parker, I forgot who was filling in

(26:27):
with him, but whoever was filling in, it wasn't Martin,
but whoever was the filling was doing a great job.
And they were arguing that c J. Stroud is there
number two, and I'm like, whoa, that's that's big words.
I mean, c J. Stroud exceeded all expectations. He was
your standard. Everybody has their personal favorites, right, I mean

(26:50):
I could see where you could throw that in there,
but like, realistically, if you're painting in broad strokes, I
think those are your top four A right. If Aaron
Rodgers doesn't get hurt a year ago, is disrespectful if
he's not five. I was surprised they didn't throw him
in there, just because of his status, his status and
his longevity and because of who he is. I was
Actually when Rich asked me this, who do you think

(27:12):
they said? I was trying to think of what they said.
I was like, they had to throw Aaron Rodgers in
there just out of respect, so I was surprised they didn't.
But right now, your top four Borough Jackson, Allen Mahomes,
that's a solid top four. The fifth is what we're asking.
I think again, this would be getting way ahead of myself.

(27:33):
And no, I'm not gonna say brock party just because
I'm a Niners fan. How could you say, look at
his winning percentage. I don't think he's that level yet.
But there's two people that come to mind. You could
conventionally say Matthew Stafford is elite. But then on the
other hand, you could say, based on potential, if he
continues where he left off, is Jordan Love number five?

(27:55):
I mean he's trending in that direction. No, he's not.
He's not yet. Is there is there an obvious ANSWERB?
Where is your mind Matthew Stafford?

Speaker 4 (28:04):
My mind goes to Herbert Actually Herbert, but yeah, but
the Matthew Stafford love that he's gotten this offseason from
guys like C. J. Stroud and others. I think opens
your eyes. Plus he has a ring, which is when
you look at the landscape of the quarterbacks of what
we've had over the last ten or fifteen years, I
think that carries a lot of weight. Considering Brady and Mahomes,

(28:25):
we're winning a bunch of those very few that that
can say that, So I know it's funny about that too.
Imagine Madgin Stafford was here in the studio with us,
just like picture of me. He'd be like, guys, he serious,
Like I actually like, I'm I'm arguably in the top four.

Speaker 1 (28:42):
I was, He's thinking, and I was stuck in Detroit.
So He's like, if I'm not four, then I'm definitely
the number five. You are reminded that there's a lot
of great quarterbacks in the league. There's a lot of
turnover the core four that we have that Brady and
Manning established, you really can't argue. If you're painting in
broad strokes like I think most people would agree it

(29:04):
is Borrow, Jackson, Allen and Mahomes that fifth spot is
really up for grabs. And when you hear him talking
about the Shawan Watson, when you hear him talking about
Russell Wilson, mat Herb Bafford Herbert, You're like, man, that
fifth spot really is up for grets. That fund about
his things move fast because you say Russell Wilson and
I laughed, But you know what, four years ago you'd

(29:25):
be like Russell Wilson, That's what I mean. But he
has a ring, you know, like he how is here?
Aaron Rodgers not in the conversation. Aaron Rodgers is a
tricky one because I think you know, rewind a year
and a half and Aaron Rodgers is a top five
And I said, Dak because we always see him right
up there as far as stats are concerned. Dak Prescott,
you mean the guy that's gonna end up being the
most highly paid quarterback in the NFL within a year.

(29:47):
So that fifth spot is really really up for grabs.

Speaker 6 (29:50):
And then besides c J. Stroud, we have three other
youngsters who, by the end of this upcoming season could
be possibly in this mix.

Speaker 1 (29:59):
Love Anthony Richardson.

Speaker 6 (30:00):
Richardson's healthy, going to play a full season, small sample size,
but he was amazing those first couple of games. Yeah,
Jaden Daniels, Oh yeah, Caleb Williams.

Speaker 1 (30:09):
Oh you even mentioned it. Love, if you if you
pass forward a couple years. You're right, it could be
a toss up of is Jordan loving there is it?

Speaker 2 (30:18):
C J.

Speaker 1 (30:19):
Stroud, Anthony Richardson showed maybe the most potential of all
and then got hurt. And then you got to ask yourself,
Caleb Williams, if the hype even lives up to seventy
five percent of what we think that's true? Man, You know,
Caleb Williams in a couple of years could be the
guy we're saying is top five.

Speaker 4 (30:32):
What I find actually interesting throughout all of this, in
this conversation you guys have had is who we aren't
mentioning and not saying they deserve to be. But I
don't think we believe in Trevor Lawrence. I don't believe
I don't think we believe in Kyler Murray, and I
don't think we believe in Deshaun Watson anymore.

Speaker 1 (30:52):
Like those who was mentioned like accidentally yeah yeah yeah,
and by Dude Rock Party. I think we still all
believe it's because of the great cis them. Kyle Shanahan
has it sure he'll never get a fair shake made.

Speaker 4 (31:03):
Two of the three guys you mentioned were first overall
picks for their teams and we're not even putting them
like we've already kind of like sold our stock in
Kyler Murray and Trevor Lawn.

Speaker 1 (31:10):
Yeah that speaks volumes you, right ma. And then you
know what, we've also sort of moved past Jared Goff
who took the Lions to the NFC Championship game. Another
number one overall. Yeah, yeah, I like it. But yeah,
you know what, we got some phone calls too. How exciting, dude,
I get I get the annoying so much fun. I
get annoyingly too excited. You know what I'm pumped about to.

(31:32):
I'm right there with you, like seeing it. It's football
next next Thursday night, fair cheeks and the football season.
What football and Nacho's rich gets real fire. Remember how
excited we were exactly a year ago.

Speaker 6 (31:45):
We were celebrating as if it was Christmas morning when
we were waiting for that first Thursday game.

Speaker 1 (31:51):
And it's going to feel the same way next week.
That's a good first game too. And we're not arguing
two of the greats, two of the goats. You could
say that Peyton and Brady are wrong with their top four,
but they agreed and they're better than you. So we're
sticking with it and Burrow Jackson, Allen Mahomes, who's number five?
It really is hard to argue that. For let's go

(32:12):
to Matt and Fresno. Matt, who is your number five?
It's it's a tough it's a tough game here.

Speaker 2 (32:18):
It's tough. It's definitely a tough one. But just based
on the numbers of last year.

Speaker 8 (32:23):
And I got to go with Justin Herbert.

Speaker 1 (32:26):
Yeah, that's what if you just joined us as with
Dan Bayer said too, because he definitely comes to mind.
And it's what Peyton Manning started to allude to when
he was giving his possible fifth And I think with
Jim Harball this year, you're gonna get a true feel
of all right, it wasn't the coach holding back Herbert,
because if it was, Herbert will prevail even more and
they'll be a playoff team and or get close. Right,

(32:46):
What do you what do you? What do you like
about Harba Matt, about Herbert Herbert? I'm sorry Herbert.

Speaker 2 (32:53):
Well, he's got a good coach in Harbaugh, as long
as he doesn't have someone without team. But I like
Herbert's own and I think he has a weapon and
he's uh, he's got.

Speaker 6 (33:06):
The skills to pay the bills. Oh he's gonna trush dock.
Youre niners.

Speaker 2 (33:10):
No, no, no, what I wanted to I wanted to
agree with you. I think Obama is definitely the best
physicist Lincoln. Hypothetically, I would want Obama to try to
get that piece of talking his way out of it.

Speaker 1 (33:24):
Yeah, listen, Barack Obama, love him to hate him. Best
speaker ever the end, ever, now ever, over over, Jesus,
over Jesus, overdone, don kick over. Al Gore was pretty good.
I said, hold on, no, no, no, I saw that,
you could say as a joke. I saw him speak.

(33:45):
I was away, That's what I'm saying. My point was,
they're all pretty good speakers. When you're comparing him with
like some of our recent presidents. Yeah, he stands out
even more, but better than the great communicator around Reige.
I was to say Reagan was a great speaker. Left
Ross Perot out of the fish. But Reagan was known

(34:06):
as a good speaker, and he was a good speaker.
Bill Craigan was pretty good. I saw Al Gore speak
in person, and I was like blowing away. A lot
of these guys are about an inconvenient truth. He told
me that he invented the internet. I was like, no way, no,
all right, So, uh, that's a whole other conversation. If
you just joined us, let's talk to Ramon oh raisor

(34:29):
Ramon great talker. What up? What's up there?

Speaker 8 (34:33):
What's going on? Fellows? Thanks for let me ask. Y'all
just got through mentioning him. So I'm gonna go with
Jared Golf and for two reasons. He took one team
to the super Bowl and he took another team to
the conference championship. At first, everybody was saying it's because
of McVeigh and an offensive coach, And now he's going

(34:55):
to another team and done it with a defensive mining coach.
So we still got a keep Golf in play, even
though I know y'all just mentioning them, but a lot
of people they know you can't credit to have. I'm
a fan, so I hate to say.

Speaker 1 (35:09):
How about how the fans have embraced him too? Man, Yeah,
that's pretty incredible to see. I think it's I think
it's fair to say that sometimes people have a lasting
impression on like a bad moment, And Danny g Denbayer
would you agree that. I know it was a Patriots
Belichick defense. But when Goff took the Rams to the
Super Bowl and they scored three, I believe that was

(35:30):
a thirteen to three final score. That was your moment
where it's like, ah, GoF couldn't get it done. And
then very quickly after that it seemed like they were
ready to move on from him. So I feel like,
all right, if GoF wins that Super Bowl and beats
Belichick and Brady and they have a great game, I
think God's reputation is drastically different.

Speaker 4 (35:49):
I couldn't be said better. It was also the end
of Todd Gurley in that stretch as well.

Speaker 1 (35:54):
Yeah, man got to the Super Bowl closing for you know,
laid an egg in the sense that, like I said,
they only put up a three spot.

Speaker 6 (36:02):
Also, maybe it's just my favorite team, but whenever a
player gets their big payday, I'm like, uh, oh, is
it too much pressure?

Speaker 1 (36:10):
Are they going to deliver? And Goff got that money?
You know what I think I want to do later
this week start thinking about this boyssetch Barack Obama speech again.
Listen I said it, love love him or hate him.
It's a great speaker. What do you want to tell you.
It's like, who's there's great coaches that are Brock Party,
Jersey dry Clean. No that I do have to do
that things I want you to look at because later

(36:32):
in the week, I wonder what a parlay would pay.
Let's let's let's get our draft kings up and rolling.
If you picked all eight division winners, because I guarantee
all of us in the room would have a different
combination of the eight division winners. Maybe one of us
gets lucky ten bucks turns into hundred front so dB,

(36:52):
Dann Bayern, Danny g I would say our top eight, Spotty,
think about your division winners, your second MySpace days. Who's
who's gonna make top eight? Yeah, I mean someone might
have Buffalo, you might have the Dolphins. Someone might have
the Ravens. You might say, nah, the Bengals. So there's
gonna be differences. There might be three or four divisions
where we all agree. But I think for the most part,
that's a really good eight for because that's an eight

(37:14):
for eight parlay with the odds, that would be a
sweet payday. Rich. I want you to keep this excitement going, Okay,
I want you to bottle it up. Think about it.
Rich's excitement, you know, it reminds me of because I
go out to eat with the Sky I've been hanging
around for twenty years. Let's say you have your fries

(37:34):
there on the plate and you only had a few
of them, but they're just sitting there on the plate,
and he's just looking at him so anxious, so excited, waiting,
waiting for Kevino Bill. He's like, dude, I'm done. Are
you gonna eat those fries? Because Rich is there rubbing
his hands together, salivating. He's got the napkin tied around
his neck like ready to dig into those just waiting

(37:55):
for me to be like you could have him. That's
what Rich is with football right now. He's waiting to
be like, here's your footballs I got. Rich is so pumped.
I can feel it s all right now. Now capture
that feeling, everybody right, Football's here.

Speaker 3 (38:08):
Now.

Speaker 1 (38:08):
Let's fast forward, fast forward like sixty years. Oh you're
one hundred and five years old. I'm serious, God, Willie,
you're one hundred and five years old. My question is
do you still care? Do you still care? And I
asked that because about what anything? No who gives her

(38:35):
do you care again. First of all, you gotta imagine
somehow that you last to one hundred and five. Do
you want to last two hundred and five of one
hundred and five? I'm going to get my mailed naked.
There's a reason I have hants on. There's a reason
I ask everybody remembers Sister Jean. She's not my lover,
Sister Jean. Of course, Sister Jean the mascot from Loyola

(38:58):
Loyola University Chicago. Right, Well, she became the mascot. Is
she not the official mascot mascot puts on a big
head of No. But she became like the mascot super fan.
How about that? Yeah, but you could say that, no,
the team mascot kind of usually mascots like a pet
or something. You know, That's not what I meant. Sister Jeans,

(39:20):
is there number one superfan? Number one superfan. So Sister
Jean turned one hundred and five years old and she's
still rooting on her Loyola University of Chicago. She was
born in nineteen nineteen. Oh my god, wow, so she
would really know who the best speaker is of the

(39:40):
the last time another was born in nineteen sixteen. So
do you guys know who the president was in nineteen nineteen? No,
nineteen nineteen was guess were they one of the best
speakers of the fifty years? The Teddy Roosevelt? It was
Woodrow Wilson, Woodrow Wilson. All right, So based on that,
you think you're gonna care. Think about how how excited
you are right now? Damn I'm mad that I didn't

(40:02):
name my son Woodrow. Would you see yourself being that
excited in your olden days? All right? Most of us
an't gonna live to one hundred and five unfortunately. But
let's say you know you're you're older days, you're old,
you're not even getting up old. You still care? You
think David Bowie style golden years, gold in your golden

(40:25):
old in years. When someone hits a walk off like
Jesse Winker did today, when the football season's approaching like
it is right now, are you excited?

Speaker 3 (40:35):
Like?

Speaker 1 (40:35):
Is that one of the things you still get excited about?
You don't have as much company. All the people around
you pretty much are gone. Yeah, all the people used
to roll with, right, you're just old? Does that excite you?
And I think there's some some truth to yes, because
of well, sister Jean, but even my grandma Man was

(40:56):
tuning into the Yankees, tuning into our TV show, she
got a big thrill. She was eighty five ish, you
know what the reality close to ninety. I saw a
meme about why very old people don't seem very frightened
of death, and it was it was a very beautifully
said thing, like most of the people they know are

(41:17):
already dead, so if they believe in something else, yeah,
they're like eighty percent of the people they know are
waiting somewhere for them. That's true, and that's why like
old people seem to get a little more okay with uh,
what's next?

Speaker 7 (41:28):
Right?

Speaker 1 (41:28):
Right? But I think if you're one hundred and five
on a they probably know more people in the afterlife
than that was. That was to me, it was like
a little move and everything I saw. That's sad but true. Metallica,
I think if you're one hundred and five, you could
look at it one of two ways. You're gonna care
more than ever because what else do you really have.
I know that sounds terrible, but that's true. What are

(41:49):
you so old that you just don't care? Because these
kids are You're they're eighty years younger than you. Yeah,
you know what I mean. Like, and you're you're in
You're just concerned about different things that we aren't aware
of yet.

Speaker 6 (42:02):
Think about who your favorite team is that you're rooting
for too, Like I'm still going to be waiting for
the Raiders to get a franchise quarterback.

Speaker 1 (42:11):
Yeah right, oh yeah, Like what's your motivation? Yeah, Cup
fans just thinking of the old Cubs fans that finally
got to see their team win, how much it meant
to them. You know what, it was really interesting. You
know what it was family members rich that said they
just missed. That's what I was. That's what I was
just gonna say. It always upsets me when someone's like,
you know, my great grandpa Py always waiting for a

(42:33):
Cubs World Series and he died in September of twenty sixteen. Like, ah,
there's a guy in my building, right, I see him
all the time and he tells me, I just came
back from the gym, mister. I saw mister Roper the
other day and I said, hey, man, you just you
go to the gym today. Hit the gym. He goes, well, man,
I'm eighty three I'm like, you're eighty three. I didn't
know this right, and he goes, I go, good for you, man,

(42:55):
going to you out. I never thought you were eighty
three and he goes, well, you know, and you get
to my you're just trying to survive. And you know,
that sort of made me think too. If you're just
trying to survive, you care the Mets in a walk off,
you care who's in the top five of the quarterbacks?
I don't know, or like Rich said, maybe it's all
you care about, you know, like, dude, you really got

(43:18):
on braceports. It might be all you have. When dude,
I know for a fact, when Covino's daughters with his
ex wife and his and Cavino's girlfriends like busy doing something,
because he gets stir crazy, He'll start shooting off all
these text messages and I'm like, dude, you get bored.
You get bored. Imagine if that was your day to day, right,
it might be the only thing you care about. You

(43:39):
care about the Yankees on a day to day in
your forty something, Yeah, I meagine if you're one hundred
and five, might be everything. It might be everything, or
it might be like the last thing you think about,
and that's what's really interesting about it. And then you
got to ask yourself, Danny g let's say you do
live to one hundred. That's our nice round number, and
we'd all knock on wood god willing hunt. Do you

(43:59):
think you will see a Raiders Super Bowl? Do you
think you'll see another Dodgers World Series? And do you
think you'll see a Lakers' NBA Championship? Do you think
you got one more in you for each sport as
a fan before you kick the bucket? Yeah? Better you
better watch it, your celebrate it, your celebration. You're don't
have a heart attack at ninety eight years old. The
Raiders win going out on top, I know, which is

(44:25):
maybe a good way to go again. Sister Jean, everybody
remembers Sister Jean. She turned one hundred and five years old,
so she was the super fan. Everybody remembers her. Do
you think you would care in your later days the
way she does? I think yes, because I don't want
to sell mean, but you really don't have much in
your day to day so I think you very much care,

(44:46):
so wishing so that if people look there's there's levels
of sports fans, right, so what are they into? The
ones that aren't into sports? Then if you're saying this
is going to be everything for you, right, what about
the guy who I was like, Yeah, I don't really
care for sports that much. What is he that in?
What is he doing it? That's a great What is
he passion about? What is he passionate about? It's a

(45:06):
good question because at that age, what could you really
you know, you're not like that. That's why they're out
feeding the ducks because they're so damn bored. Alright, Okay,
let's do this midweek Major League time.

Speaker 3 (45:21):
Covino and Rich get you over the middle of the week.
When mid week major major.

Speaker 9 (45:27):
Oh.

Speaker 3 (45:27):
I love that we throw sports and pop culture headlines
and topics at the fellas and it's like the kids say.

Speaker 8 (45:34):
That's so many week. Definitely major.

Speaker 3 (45:37):
Seeing our score midweek major oh.

Speaker 7 (45:52):
Wow?

Speaker 9 (45:53):
Wow.

Speaker 10 (45:53):
When the horns hit, you know you've made it to
the middle of the week, And we'd like to roll
the big red Love dice before we hand things over
to the number one and only host of this segment.

Speaker 1 (46:05):
I just rolled the six Rich heavy Wow. Wow.

Speaker 6 (46:13):
That means Rich is gonna get the first take. Yeah, now,
ladies and germs. The most famous person from Scotch Plains,
New Jersey besides Judy Bloom Spotty boy.

Speaker 9 (46:25):
Hey, hey, guys, can I get the Rod Belding of
the crew. He's the best, He was the best.

Speaker 1 (46:30):
He's gonna take the kids white water rafting. And then
some girl came into the picture.

Speaker 9 (46:33):
Okay, anyway, Rich, I know you're gonna be jealous of
this one. I know this is one of your dreams.
So comedian, I believe it's a ten. Levine has set
a new Guinness World record and it's nothing to do
with comedy. He's thrown the most first pitches in a
year than anyone in history, and that record was broken

(46:53):
as he threw out the first pitch today at City
Field as the metstick on the Orioles. It was his
fortieth first pitch at an MLB state him in the
last three hundred and sixty five days. He's actually a
childhood cancer survivor and.

Speaker 1 (47:04):
Has been raising money for the Make a Wish Foundation.

Speaker 9 (47:06):
O man, I know, but that they helped him meet
like Mets stars and Ranger stars when he was a kid,
so he wanted to give back.

Speaker 1 (47:13):
Fair because I hated him that.

Speaker 9 (47:15):
He has eleven more stops to go this season, so
I'm sure he's securing that that record Midweek or major.

Speaker 1 (47:21):
I mean, that's right. Sorry, he's doing some other are
kids who cancers. God bless him. I hope he throws
out all the first pitches. Let me give the fast
before you told me all the good he did. I
was gonna say, what does a guy need to do
to throw the first pitch to a Girl's doing it?
He's doing it, Wayne, Can I the only Mets fan
you know with the passion throw it a first pitch?

(47:42):
Probably never, but hey, I mean, if Grimas could do it,
you can do it. I'm gonna say that is a
major story because he's doing good stuff for kids. I
can't argue that. I think it's major as well because
of that, and only because of that. Otherwise, I'm like,
forget this guy. I was carrying love a little little bit.
Everyone gets so mad that Zach Hampbell catches all these

(48:03):
legendary home run balls. Everybody hates Zach Hampbell, but everybody
loves this guy. No, he's doing good. And you know
what's interesting, I'm curious of those forty something pitchers, how
many are stripes. Oh that's curious, Like, you know, did
he did? He have a couple of boys and Fitty Cencinnario.
They all strike.

Speaker 9 (48:18):
Baseball Reference didn't have his stats rich, So all right,
a rod. It is a cool story that is chiming
in on the Ben and Jen divorce drama. That Ben
Affleck and Jennifer Lopez divorce drama, Jlo's most recent acts.
As you know, he ron prior to Ben Affleck posted
a cryptic message on his Instagram story shortly after j
LO filed for divorce from then the post. It was

(48:40):
a quote that read, you either go one way or
the other. You might as well be the one deciding
the direction. Obviously it's easy to read into I know
it's easy to read into anything that Many people agree
that timing is very suspect considering his history.

Speaker 1 (48:54):
With j Low. Is this Midweek or major? I think
this is the weakest thing ever I heard a guy.
I heard guy want to say, if you see a
fork in the road, take it, pick it up. That's
what yogi is. I pick it up. So I don't
even know if it has to do with j LO,
but I will say my thoughts on the j LO
Ben thing. It's it a sad and when you get
divorced for the fourth time, no matter how hot or

(49:17):
famish you are, you gotta start internally thinking like, oh
my god, is it me. I'm sad. It's not sad.
They're both fine. You know, it's sad. When I got divorced,
I had to live with my sister. That was sad.

Speaker 9 (49:29):
Yeah, that was said that afflex moving into another fifty
million dollar mansion.

Speaker 1 (49:33):
They're just fine even to be with like some haughty
next weekend. Can you know had a Ralph's plastic bag
of clothes which to his sister's out. You want to
see pictures of my living situation?

Speaker 5 (49:43):
Sad?

Speaker 1 (49:44):
Very sad. Yeahn't sad about that. I say this a
very mid story because it's it's not so much to
the tweet that's made. It's like the stretch, like making
it into something like last night with Obama's speech, some
of the headlines tried to make his hand gestures and
to something vulgar regarding Trump. You do think so, hars
it was? I don't think so your vulgar hand gesture.

(50:06):
You think Obama was trying to make a vulgar head
Donald Trump has a fascination with crowd sizes, and he
does like a you don't you says, how's that vulgar?
I'll say the video, you, folks, I saw it again.
My point is a stretch. I think you're trying to
stretch this tweet from a rod into something to do
with Jay Leing. I agree with that. Yeah, So that

(50:26):
that for that reason alone, I think it's weak. All right,
look at those hands? Are they small? Kind of Mitch.

Speaker 9 (50:33):
Jake Paul has a alluded to how much money he's
getting for his upcoming fight against Mike Tyson, the rescheduled fight,
which will take place on Friday, November fifteenth. During a
press conference, he said that, and I quote, Tyson's just
here to make forty million or I'm just here to
knock out Tyson and make forty million dollars.

Speaker 8 (50:53):
Wow.

Speaker 9 (50:53):
So Jake Paul alluded to the fact that he'll be
making forty million. It's unclear how much Tyson is making
their thinking that it's over at least over thirty million dollars.
Paul also said that he wants to after knockout Tyson,
take on Kanelo, So that's his next.

Speaker 1 (51:08):
Chase site Midweek or major listen it's major, major, New Day,
same fate. I'm gonna knock out Jake Paul. I love
Mike Tyson. I hope he wins forty million. I loved Hey, listen,
the money's there, someone's gonna make it. We're all gonna
watch it. Congratulations. The event is major, This story's mid.
He's getting He's getting got forty million dollars. That's a

(51:31):
lot of flow to fight a fifty eight year old
guy who doesn't seem to be angry. Yet they were
having tickle fights this week. I didn't like the body
language of Mike Tyson at the press conference. Here's a
guji guji guku me here, Jake Paul, I have a
tackle fight. That's not what we want to pay for
and see his fans. He did also say later this

(51:54):
week to Logan Paul that you know, you can't underestimate anybody.
Look what happened to him when he underestimated Buster Douglas.
But I think that's that's kind of it's kind of mid.
I'm I'm still excited about the fight, regardless. I want
to see some fire man that don't get me excited.

Speaker 9 (52:11):
What if he's just saving it all, like he's just underspeaking,
keeping soft, and he's gonna like let out or.

Speaker 1 (52:17):
Maybe he thinks he's such a joke so he's not
serious yet, right. I also think it's very mid to
think that he's gonna go from fifty eight year old
Tyson to Canelo. Give me a break. That's not happening
big as they say, as the Weeniel say, big dreaming Bro,
Big treat dreaming Bro. All right, Well, I know we're

(52:38):
all excited about the upcoming Happy Gilmore sequel, Happy Goodmore
too well. Adam Sandler confirmed on The Tonight Show with
Jimmy Fallon that Chiefs tight End and Travis Kelsey will
be making a cameo in the upcoming film. He said
that he has something nice for him. He's a very
nice guy, funny and cool as hell. He's a stud
and so funny. So we'll see how that translates to

(53:00):
the big screen. I know he was recently in some
uh what was that grotesque gree show? Yeah, and he's
been you know, he had his own reality show. So
we'll see how that comes up. Also, another little headline
that popped up is that he gave Taylor Swift thirty
one thousand, dollars worth of flowers to wrap up her
European leg of the Eras Tour. Wow Midweeker major listen man.
He was already arguably one of the greatest tight ends ever,

(53:23):
number one in the game. Right now you date Taylor Swift,
your star rises to a new level. He's hosting game shows,
he's in movies, TV shows, like Travis kelce is now
a megastar his podcast what are they gonna sell it
for a one hundred million dollars? Like, who's living a
better life right now than Travis Kelcey? Yeah, I hate it.
I think I can't think of a few people, but

(53:48):
it's major and I hate saying it. If you could
make a phone call to the Sandman and be like, yo,
I want to be in your movie, He's like, oh yeah,
no problem, And they're gonna be in Jersey slapping as
together making a film and it's just like that. What's
cooler than that? I think that's major. Well, I would
do anything to have that relationship like Dan Patrick and Kelsey.

(54:11):
I know, good for them, all right, one more quick
can squeezing one more cookie?

Speaker 9 (54:16):
I think we talked about this briefly, but we talked
about how the flag football. QB was talking about how
NFL players shouldn't be an automatic part of the only
roster coming up well. In an interview recently, he said,
and I quote, at the end of the day, I
feel like I'm better than Patrick Mahomes because of my

(54:39):
IQ of the game. I know right now, I was saying,
I'm playing this, do you want to play it? Play
the clip? Play the Irish I've never had audio.

Speaker 1 (54:46):
This is great. At the end of the day, I
feel like I'm better than Patrick Mahomes because of my
IQ of the game.

Speaker 8 (54:51):
I know he's right now the best in the league.

Speaker 1 (54:54):
I know he's more accurate, I know he has all
these intangibles, but when it comes to flag football, I feel.

Speaker 8 (54:59):
Like I know more than him.

Speaker 9 (55:02):
And Mahomes himself actually retweeted this this clip on his
x account with a photo of fifty cent looking like confused,
like anyway midwek or major.

Speaker 1 (55:15):
I think this is major because I think this guy
is that. This guy's confidence of sweggers off the charts,
like delusional. You ever seen one of those girls on
social media that's not that attractive and she's like, I'm
a twelve when you're like A twelve two. This guy
thinks he's better than Patrick Mahomes. Yeah, I will say

(55:36):
that he probably has a different set of skills that
are important to fleg football. You know, it's a different games,
but he, come on, he is a different game. It's
a different game. I watch my nephew play every weekend,
and he has different skills of snagging that flag. And
it's a different game. You have to do a different
set of skills. But come on, you're not going to
be passing more accurate than Patrick Mahomes and playing bigger

(55:58):
than Patrick Mahomes. I do agree with Rich. This guy's
big dreaming again. All right, all right, Tomirol's Thursday already,
so we throw it back. We reminisce old school win
fifty hits. Definitely have to check that out right here
on the Covino and Rich Show. The quote is, I
feel like I'm better than Patrick Mahons because of my IQ.
So he's saying he thinks he's better at flag football

(56:22):
because he knows the because he understands. But he's still
saying he's better at flag football. I'm just trying. I'm
trying to think of an analogy they would make, but
think about, think about just forget football. They built this
to where it is. It does seem cut, and mind you,
I get it. Life's not fair. Guess what. We've been
radio doing radio our entire career, since we were kids. Practically,

(56:45):
if some guy with a professional sports background decided he
wanted to be the guy, guess what if they wanted
to hire Travis Kelcey. Not trying to plant that seed
or whatever, but he'd probably take our job in a minute,
and we'd be like, yeah, but we're broadcasters. That's not fair.

Speaker 6 (57:00):
When your Yeah, when you're in this guy's shoes, it
feels different. My first radio gig, I was doing nights
for a station and I came up with a cool contest.
The program director really liked it, and he told me,
I'm going to give that contest to the morning show.
And on one hand, you're flattered because you're like, oh,
he loved my idea. On the other hand, I'm like, yeah,

(57:20):
that's mine, and they get better prizes, of course, And
of course the thing blew up.

Speaker 1 (57:24):
They took off and ran with it.

Speaker 6 (57:26):
Everybody forgot it even came from my night show, and
so I had I felt a certain way about that
and I'm sure that's how these pro flag football players
are feeling.

Speaker 1 (57:34):
But guess what, danyg we could all relate to it.
But that is life. Life's not always fair, right, so
if you want to make it fair, well, wouldn't you
speak out about it? At least? Yeah, if it was you,
I don't have a problem with it. He's like, Yo,
we put this on the map. We deserve a shot,
and I'm all for that shot.

Speaker 9 (57:50):
If I were like a pro mini golf player, that
would be like me saying, you know, like I could
easily beat Tiger.

Speaker 1 (57:57):
Wasn't mini golf because you have a specific get how
the windmill works. You understand how to get of course.

Speaker 6 (58:04):
But what if Tiger got to the mini course though,
and was like, ah, this is this is just different
than what I'm used to and I'm not that good
at it.

Speaker 1 (58:13):
But Danny then then on the flip, what if Tiger
did play mini golf against you know, pro spot and
he just whooped Spots And it's like, yeah, what we
thought that would be like if Mahomes started playing flag
foot but he's like, ah, yeah, this is easy.

Speaker 6 (58:23):
I liked your guys' idea of having a scrimmage between
the pros and the pros and the pros.

Speaker 1 (58:30):
It is such a great conversation. It really is interesting.
I mean again, we come from serious XM. Yeah, we
worked there a couple of years before Howard Stern came
there in the two thousands. They made it seem like
satellite didn't exist until Howard was there. It existed, but
we had a you know, you have to be you
have to you know, be realistic and be like well,
until he did come there, it was sort of a

(58:50):
small potatoes operation, right if you're if you're a spot
starter and then playoff time, your ace is back. Are
you bummed that he that he enters the rotator should
have you're back in the buppins all the time. You know,
let's continue it tomorrow, all right. Until then, have a
great Wednesday night or we've been there, cheap baby, see
you in the Promised Land. Goodbye bye,
