Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:02):
Hey, thanks for listening to the best of Cavino and
Rich podcast. Be sure to catch us live every day
from five to seven pm Eastern two to four Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 2 (00:11):
Find your local station for Cavino and Rich at Fox
Sports Radio dot com, or stream us live every day
on the iHeartRadio app I searching FSR. The Rich was
at the game with its family yesterday. But during the
game they said it, it doesn't matter if you lose
nine to nothing or one nothing. In fact, maybe losing
nine nothing is less stressful than losing a nail bier,

(00:35):
a heartbreaker. So it didn't matter if you got blown
out yesterday. It was fun for the Dodgers. But look,
new game, new day day today, and you're winning six
nothing right now?

Speaker 1 (00:44):
Well, hey, with that Dodgers offense. The one thing I
did notice, because we are going to go over things
that make you go hmm with football in just a
little bit, but when it comes to baseball for real, Cavino,
when you don't watch a Dodgers day in and day out,
that lineup is insane. Like when you're all, oh, tany
we'll get past him. Oh, then there's Mookie Betts, all right, Well,

(01:05):
Oh wait, then there's Freddy Freeman. Oh wait, then there's
Ti Oscar, Oh wait, then there's Max Munsey. Oh wait,
then there's keyk It goes on and on like that
Dodgers lineup.

Speaker 2 (01:14):
Did you even mention show? Hey yeah, he's yeah, he
leads off. Yeah you get yeah. I mean and like
you said, Keiky Hernandez steps up. It's his time of
the year. He loves Halloween. As he says, the guy's
hitting like a machine. But dude, it's anybody serious because
as of today, your team still has the magic. They
didn't lose any magic from that loss. And they say
it over and over again just because they got blown out.

(01:35):
It doesn't mean anything. The Mets have been through enough
this season to let that affect them today. So it
just sucks that you were there with your family. And
what's the over under Danny g on two thousand dollars?
How much do you think Rich spent between tickets, parking
and concessions and parking and his kid. His son had

(01:56):
at least four hot dogs.

Speaker 3 (01:58):
I'm gonna say he spent nineteen hundred dollars.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
It's a little old, you know what.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
Put it over the two hundred dollars to park in
parking lot F, which wasn't even like the premium parking
that was just like the outskirts of the stadium. But listen,
all in all great time thanks to our buddy Weeze
here at Fox Sports Radio. He's the man a magical
knife for the kids. Even though the Dodgers came out
on top last night, Kevino said it, I'm down by
the Mets dugout. We had pretty sweet seats and I

(02:27):
see David Wright, Mets legend there, and he's just chopping
it up with Mets fans. So I go up, introduce myself,
tell my work for Fox Sports. We you know, chat
for a minute about LA and New York.

Speaker 2 (02:40):
I'm like, hey, Dad, did you guys smash helmets like
they do with the Dodgers?

Speaker 1 (02:44):
Why I did the Dodger home run greeting with David Wright? Yeah,
that's why I feed Yeah, yeah, of course why would
I not? And I was like, Dave, I don't want
to be that guy, but am I taking a picture
with my kids? And he's like, of course, puts his
arms around my two little booger eating kids. And now
it brings up conversation one I want to have because
I do want to talk a lot of NFL, but
I do feel like NFL Week six not a lot

(03:06):
of surprises. I'm calling Week six back to reality. I
feel like it's a there wasn't anything that made me
go hmm on a major level. So we will talk
a lot of NFL, but maybe we're finding who these
teams are now.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
Yeah, I mean unless you're Alliance fan or Buccaneers fan.
Though the games are sort of boring, dude, The games
themselves are kind of eh. Again, maybe in comparison to
the excitement of the postseason here with baseball, but I
wasn't that pumped watching any of these games.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
So my thought was, when you're watching the NFL, because
we're gonna get to all that, At what age do
you feel like it's worth spending the money to bring
your kids places of value meaning a playoff game, a
concert of you know that's not cheap. You go on vacation,

(03:57):
you go with your wife to Hawaii or the you know,
next ago dominicure Republic. When do you start saying, hey,
let's bring the kids, because adding the kids is like
just two more little moocher's as far as money goes right.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yeah, no, there's no question about that. I have to
start off by saying it's all relative, right on your budget,
of course. And Rich, we're in a fortunate spot being
that we work for Fox Sports Radio. We had a
nice hookup. You got the tickets at face value. But again,
is it worth bringing your nose picking son to the
game when he's four years old? For reference, Rich's kids
are seven and four, and I don't even see it

(04:32):
that way. I think they're at a perfect age. Is
Ben old enough to remember? Probably not. But you're setting
that foundation, man, which is priceless. You know, money can't
buy that that moment. You're creating those memories, You're creating
the foundation you're setting for your family of Hey, we're
a Mets family. We do fun things. Remember when dad

(04:53):
and mom took you to that awesome time when they
made the postseason? Like it's about it's about setting up
that foundation of a loving family who likes sports and
it bounds people together. I mean more than it is
about the money being stray.

Speaker 3 (05:06):
It really is.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
I've been at big events and I look around, I'm
like that she doesn't care, that's just the guy's date,
or look at that person they got three kids with them.
I want to waste the tickets. And I was that
guy yesterday and my son just for the just for
the story. He's going to be five in a couple months,
so it's gonna be in kindergarten next year. So you
could argue, dude, too young, But then I felt like

(05:26):
I can't take just my daughter and be like, honey,
i'll see you later. You have siblings, they both want
to go.

Speaker 2 (05:33):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
I have a buddy who talks to this day about
how he actually remembers going to see Michael Jackson when
he was in kindergarten with his parents, like you remember,
that's like a core early memory.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
And I'm like, that's what I'm saying. And when you
look back, you might not remember him doing the moonwalk,
but you know that your parents loved you enough to
take you to that event. And I think that's what
it's about.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
Like, Danny, you've taken You've taken co at the Disney
a bunch of times. That just sort of set in
the groundwork to be like, hey, this is you know,
we want to make special moments for you.

Speaker 3 (06:03):
Yeah, And there's psychologists who say that even little babies
that age have that like a file folder in their brain.
And so even though they can't fully remember these experiences,
that's still a lasting memory that's in your subconscious.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
Not only your subconscious, though, it's also for you as
a parent. Right, doesn't it make you feel good like
you're doing something nice for your kids. Look, granted they
don't remember, you know, you can say it's self. There's
nothing wrong with that, right, And there's nothing wrong with that,
Like I'm doing it to check off a little box
for me to say that I did, and I took
them there and we tried to have a nice time.

(06:40):
Even though your team lost. You know, it's still a memory.
And you know what, looking back, Rich, you'll laugh at
that it was a laugher of a game and they
lost nine zero and maybe you brought them some bad
luck and Ben eight seven hot dogs. Like then it
turns to seven Ben eight seventeen hot dogs. Yeah, and
the legend becomes reality and you guys will laugh about that,
and you'll have the pictures to prove it, you know. So,
and then kids they memory, they they hold on to

(07:03):
those memories through pictures.

Speaker 3 (07:04):
I know I do.

Speaker 2 (07:04):
Yeah, sometimes I'm confused I'm like, do I remember that?
Do I just remember the pictures?

Speaker 3 (07:08):
Well?

Speaker 1 (07:08):
With that, said Dan Bayer, Danny g I was say, im,
Spotty's in the studio, our our Buddi's Paul and Carrie
visiting from Minnesota. So we got a full house here
Cavino's in Idaho. Today, I gotta ask, are their core
memories that you remember? Can you be in that? We
are Fox Sports? Do you have your first memory of like, oh,
is that a Dodgers game? Danny, do you remember your
first like my mom got the mud we we got

(07:29):
tickets and we went to the Raiders game.

Speaker 2 (07:31):
Do you have those core memories?

Speaker 3 (07:32):
I did? Yeah, I do. I remember my grandmother driving
us from a rialto California to the Dodgers stadium bleachers
way up high. She had a son umbrella. She had
a little transistor radio so she could hear Vin Scully
call the game, and uh, it was hot. I remember
it being hot, and I remember Fernando Valenzuela being the picture.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
Is that a core memory?

Speaker 1 (07:51):
It's a core memory. This guy just gave me. He
was like telling a beautiful story.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
Yeah, you know and that and then he grows up
thinking I'm a Dodgers kid. I'm a Dodgers fan in
my blood. It's what we do. Yeah, and that's a
that's a great thing.

Speaker 1 (08:03):
And by the way, rich and you're right, your parents,
by the way, you are right, com you know your
parents didn't exaggerate that story. Like when I was a kid. Apparently,
when Mookie Wilson would beat I don't know if they
do it for Mookie bets out here, Danny. Do the
fans do the moo and it sounds like they're saying
boo uh not so from Mookie Wilson.

Speaker 3 (08:21):
Yeah, and I rode on the level of Wilson.

Speaker 1 (08:24):
And apparently the story which gets exaggerated is that I
was so upset that they were booing Mookie Wilson.

Speaker 2 (08:30):
I'm like, wa, Mookie wolf.

Speaker 1 (08:32):
It's like, you know, I was five years old, nineteen
eighty five, Chase Stadium, So you know, I think if
I have or have those quote memories, maybe that's around
the age you start doing.

Speaker 2 (08:44):
I remember going to Yankee Stadium, original old school, mystical,
beautiful Yankee Stadium where I had that weird sort of
glow in the air and the Bontan potato chip advertisements.
You remember the old Yankee Stadium. I remember being with
my aunts and uncles and cousins and like the families,
they're like, yo, we're Yankees fans. I guess I'm a

(09:05):
little kid in New York City and I just remember
screaming with my my aunts and cousins like will he
ran off? And You're just setting up these these fun memories.
And I remember he turned around and he waved, and
we had him on our show years later and I
jokingly said, you remember, right, He's like yeah, in the eighties.

(09:28):
He's like, yeah, I remember, I remember, And we had
the privilege of interviewing and meet him, meeting him years later.
But dude, those memories stick with you, and they feel
like a dream. And it's not like you took your kid.
Like I'm not saying you take your kid everywhere, right,
That's not it. Like I go to Vegas and I'm like,
why would these parents be strolling their kids smoke filled casino?

(09:49):
And granted I've been there too. I got married with
my kid there in Vegas. So I understand there's reasons
and exceptions as to why these things happened, but there
are moments and places where you probably shouldn't be taking
your kids to a postseason ball game when you have
the option and privilege to take them at Dodger Stadium
as a Mets fan, Man, I wouldn't hesitate, and I

(10:11):
wouldn't regret that one bit. I don't care if you
spent four thousand dollars on ticket. Seriously, nice, worth every penny.
Thanks Bud Dan Bayern. Any childhood memories of those sports,
those first sports memories, maybe mom or dad, or like
an aunt or uncle or someone you remember them watching
a game and you cheering along.

Speaker 3 (10:26):
I think I've said this story.

Speaker 4 (10:28):
My first game that I remember going to was a
Brewers Blue Jays game at Milwaukee County Stadium when Dave
Steve pitched for Toronto. I remember, I remember that, But
we were I became a Seahawks fan because of Dave Craig,
who was from around the area where I grew up.

Speaker 3 (10:45):
I was seven at the time.

Speaker 4 (10:47):
But they played the Packers in a game in Milwaukee
in nineteen eighty four and we went and met Seahawks
players after the game. So that's a little further advanced
than your son, Rich. But yeah, so seven, you know
you're remembering everything at that seven.

Speaker 2 (11:02):
I have a three my daughter seven, so I know
you mean yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 4 (11:05):
So like my son's three is gonna be three and
a half soon. I'm still waiting where he can remember
it because.

Speaker 2 (11:12):
In perspective to dB, most of us could remember like kindergarten. Right,
So if you're right around that, cuffs put that in perspective,
you're gonna remember going to a postseason game four or
five ish or the reality.

Speaker 1 (11:27):
Like you said, can you know you'll remember it through
the picture? Yeah, and that's enough. Like like the the
old Jocos kids will say, I remember taking a bath
in the sink.

Speaker 2 (11:37):
I don't think you do.

Speaker 1 (11:38):
I think what you remember is the picture your mom
has shown you one hundred times of like here's what
we gave.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
You, a bath in the sink. I don't think you
really remember getting a bathroom keeps the memory alive, you know,
maybe you do remember it, but that keeps it fresh.
But Dan Bayer, if you were seven years old, that's
the pocket for sure. But I think you could start.
You can remember a lot of stuff from five on,
especially impactful moments like yeah for sure.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
So just a reminder that just I know, can you
know you love a lesson to be learned at the
end of our conversations. If you're hesitant to bring your
kid to Disney, a ballgame, vacation, if you're thinking, listen,
if budget's not the issue and you're just trying to decide, like, yeah,
should I I? After last night, even though the Mets
got stopped nine to nothing, and.

Speaker 2 (12:19):
My daughter's like, are they gonna do anything?

Speaker 3 (12:21):
Dad?

Speaker 2 (12:22):
You know, she still had her cotton candy.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
My son was laughing eating his Dodger dog and we
were fortunate enough to be sitting near David Wright, so
they got to meet a Mets legend.

Speaker 2 (12:31):
It was worth it. Do the same if you have
the opportunity to take your kid to one of those
events or to fan fast meeting up to these big games,
Oh no doubt, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (12:40):
Do it so.

Speaker 2 (12:41):
And they're little once, dude, they're little once. And as
you know, and everybody knows, it goes like this, it
goes so quick, So enjoy it. And I'm glad you
had a good time despite the fact like that you said,
everybody knows they got blown out yesterday. But I'm winning today, man,
and saw that matter. So we got a series there.
I'm crussing my fingers that they hold on today. Six
nothing is not enough against an offense like the Dodgers.

(13:02):
Like I said, their lineup is from you know, from
one through nine. It's scary.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
But if the Mets hold on today, me going back
to New York tomorrow night to catch the games at
City Field.

Speaker 2 (13:12):
Yes feels.

Speaker 1 (13:14):
I know.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
Danny G's like, go go to every one of those games,
you mush, So I'll be there.

Speaker 4 (13:20):
So he doesn't have to deal with you during commercial
breaks about these games.

Speaker 2 (13:23):
That's why out of his hair exactly.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
And plus you guys don't want me here doing the
Mets Dodgers anyway. So going back if it is one
to one is so different than being down to h oh. Yeah,
like going to game three and four on Wednesday and
Thursday will be so much different.

Speaker 2 (13:41):
Is a victory in itself.

Speaker 1 (13:42):
Yeah, so please keep this one to one, keep this
game and keep this lead so I could go back
with some happiness. So I'll go back and I'll have
some fun with that. So hey, well we'll keep in
the loop all week here. Obviously, playoffs a big deal,
but we got to talk a little NFL.

Speaker 2 (13:59):
Well, it doesn't have to be NFL, but it's mostly
gonna be NFL. It's anything that made you go hmmm.
We do it every Monday here on the Coveno and
Rich Show Fox Sports Radio. And you know, actually, one
of my first thoughts doesn't even have to do with football,
has to do with why is the Mets game on
right now? I feel like it's like the weakest time
for a major postseason game. These are two major teams.

(14:22):
People are at work like, who's watching this? Like what
a week ass time to put the game on. But
I get it, what else are you gonna do to
The Yankees are playing Cleveland later, but just the week's
start time.

Speaker 1 (14:32):
It's Danny, You and I talked about this in the kitchen.
I was there as a fan. I got home last
night and I was exhausted this morning and I roll
into work and they're playing. I'm like, Danny, I can't
imagine going through the emotions of a game won last
night and these guys are at the ballpark this morning
taking beat p five hours ago, dealing.

Speaker 2 (14:52):
With prey, forget about the press they gotta deal with
and everything else. Oh my god.

Speaker 1 (14:56):
So it is an odd start time, but benefit to
the on Rich audience, who wants to hear us every
day I started, got permission from the boss to take
a day off if the Mets, if every game was
early where it interfered with our showtime.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
But the Mets have on Wednesday and Thursday, they have.

Speaker 1 (15:13):
That eight pm Eastern game, right, and I think the
Yankees flip PLoP, so they have one early game one
late game, So they're trying. I think they're also trying
to balance the fact that Mets Dodgers is a coast
to coast rivalry now where you can't have all those
games be week day games.

Speaker 2 (15:30):
Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. Before we do
things that made you go hmmm, actually, are we ready
to do this?

Speaker 1 (15:37):
We have a full bank of phone calls of people
saying they want to quickly talk about their first sports memory.

Speaker 2 (15:42):
You know, I'm glad rich because I always hit about
it too. We did, and I was thinking about, like, yeah,
four closer to five is always the I think most
age appropriate time to bring a kid. But I think
back of all those times I took my daughter to
Disneyland and I got criticized. She's never gonna even remember it.

(16:02):
I really personally don't care because I remember it and
I did it for the right reasons, and I did
it because I love my kid and I was trying
to create moments. You know who says that at all?
You know who says that our parents generation for real? No, seriously, Yeah,
they won't even remember. Well guess what I remember. But
then that's that means something to me.

Speaker 1 (16:23):
I mean, there's a reason why my kids have been
on a plane a bunch of times, and I didn't
fly until I was sixteen. Our parents had a different
idea of travel with kids and doing things with your children.

Speaker 2 (16:34):
So, in other words, Rich spent a lot of flow
on his whole family to be at the Dodgers game
yesterday to root on his Mets. Mets got blown out,
but still fun times, big worth it.

Speaker 1 (16:44):
Yeah, all right, let's say hi to Dollan and Austin.
We'll start with him and we'll take all your calls.
What's up, brother, No problem, man, what's up?

Speaker 5 (16:53):
So?

Speaker 6 (16:53):
I remember my first A game, went to McAfee Stadium,
driving through a neighborhood and oak and my stepdad said,
put your heads down, it's a dangerous neighborhood. But Eric
Burns had a grand Slam and a home run that night.
Makes money ball even better and it's a it's cool
to know I went to a stadium that that as
no longer playing. So thanks taking my call, Yea.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
Dallan.

Speaker 1 (17:13):
Just hearing people tell their stories, it makes me realize
that the message here is bring your kids to that
first game, that that special moment when they are four
or five, six years old, because everyone seems to remember it. Danny,
you describing your you describing your your grandma with the
umbrella with the transistor radio.

Speaker 2 (17:30):
That's a healthy story. That's awesome.

Speaker 3 (17:32):
The food that she brought in in a zip block back.
She's too cheap to buy the food inside. And and
by the way, that's funny, Dallan said, as his stepdad said,
for the kids to duck, even if you're taking kids
to a stadium where they need to duck inside the car.

Speaker 1 (17:45):
It's like a Clark Griswoldt driving through the hood. Uh,
let's say what's up to Mike and Boise?

Speaker 2 (17:50):
What's up?

Speaker 3 (17:50):
Mike?

Speaker 6 (17:51):
Hey, guys, what's going on?

Speaker 2 (17:52):
How are you so?

Speaker 7 (17:53):
I got a lot in common.

Speaker 3 (17:54):
With you, guys.

Speaker 8 (17:55):
I grew up half in Jersey half in.

Speaker 9 (17:56):
La at the same time as a kid.

Speaker 2 (17:58):
Nice and actually I'm pretty sure rich if your daughter
plays at West Valley Girls Softball.

Speaker 8 (18:03):
She does a kid.

Speaker 5 (18:04):
I umpire for that as a kid get out of
here in.

Speaker 7 (18:07):
That league at Hale Junior High.

Speaker 3 (18:10):
But here's the kicker.

Speaker 6 (18:11):
I'm I'm in boys the Idaho and I want to
watch the Yankee.

Speaker 2 (18:14):
Game because I'm a die hard Yankee game with Covino.

Speaker 8 (18:16):
Night.

Speaker 6 (18:16):
Cavino, where are you watching the game?

Speaker 5 (18:18):
No?

Speaker 2 (18:19):
Right now, I'm watching it with my girlfriend's family. But
then I'm hopping on a plane like right around where
the game should be over. So yeah, that would be cool.

Speaker 6 (18:27):
Man.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
I do want to get together. There's a bunch of
dudes out here that listen. Like I said, I was
telling Rich not to brag, but I feel like a
lot of people out here in Idaho listen to our show.
And Kavino also said this, he's one of the few
Mexican dudes up there. I did not say that anyway.

(18:48):
Having a great time and thank you very much.

Speaker 3 (18:50):
Man, Yeah, thank you, Mike.

Speaker 2 (18:52):
I think that's Cavino.

Speaker 1 (18:53):
Let's go to Patrick in Illinois and we'll move on
to things that made you go.

Speaker 2 (18:56):
What's up? Patrick?

Speaker 8 (18:58):
Hey, thanks guys for taking a call. I love the show.
Thanks you for driving me home.

Speaker 2 (19:02):
Every day, no problem. Well what's up?

Speaker 8 (19:04):
Okay? So my first memory I never really got to
a game until I was like sixteen. But my first
sports memory, I was five years old laying on my
grandma's living room floor and I saw the meme Joe
Green Coke commercial. Didn't know anything about football, but I've
been a die hard Steelers fan ever since.

Speaker 2 (19:23):
Well that's a whole question in itself, like your first
sports memory, like your first recorlle you weren't there, You
weren't you were just watching it on TV as the
commercial came on. Mine might be the catch I don't know,
or cheering for Reggie Jackson. Honestly, might be my first
sports memory. I just wasn't there in person eight seven,

(19:44):
seven ninety nine one Fox. Let's take one last phone
call and then we'll do things they made you go.
Let's go to Washington State and say what's up to Austin? Hey, Austin, Hi, guys.

Speaker 7 (19:55):
So I'm four or five years old. My dad takes
me to the Kingdome for nose leaps. They're playing the Colts,
and I asked what team we root for? He said
the Blue One. He was a Rodeo cowboy. I assumed
he met the team with the horseshow on the helmet.
Fast forward ten years, we're getting ready to draft Peyton Manning.
I'm running around the house going crazy, and that's when
he breaks it to me. He doesn't care about the Colts.

(20:16):
He's a Seahawks fan. But I'm thirty eight and still
a die hard Colts fan.

Speaker 2 (20:20):
There you go. See, look you're that he made rich.
He made me think of something too. I do know,
like my first sports memory, my first sports memory. I
remember my parents. They were young and broken. They had
a piece of garbage black and white TV. Right, I'm
not that old guys, It's just the TV they had.
And what do you remember gave the mcflies. I remember

(20:40):
telling my mom, yeah, I know who that is. She's like,
you don't know who that is. I'm like, yeah, that
guy up who was stepping up the play. I'm like,
he's pinch Hitter. Like I was so little, I didn't
know his name. He thought his name was pinch Hitter.
I was like, he's pinch Hitter, and it just so happens.
I only knew that dude just from watching baseball and
absorbing it. I knew that he didn't play every day.
But when that dude came in, whoever it was, like

(21:02):
in in nineteen eighty eighty one, whoever it was, he
only came in to pinch hit. And I remember the
graphic popped up and it said pinch hitter. My mom
was like, how did you know that? So they thought
it was some sort of like idiot, savant, little genius boy.
But I was starting to absorb the game and I
knew that was the pinch hitter guy. That's one of
my first memories because I loved the Yankees as a kid.

(21:22):
I loved baseball.

Speaker 4 (21:23):
Dan Byer, There's also another layer to this, and I
don't think it proteins to you guys. I'm not sure
exactly where Danny grew up, but I think this would
pertain to Samini for sure. We lived in areas where
there wasn't a pro team in town, so if you
were to go to a game, it would be a
three hour, four hour drive to go to that city

(21:46):
to be able to you know, to a more special Yeah. Yeah,
So like it was a really really big deal to
be like, Wow, we're driving to Milwaukee or you know,
we're going to one of those games that would be
a much bigger deal than that. You know, for my son,
the Dodgers will be in town every night and we
can just drive down the Dodgers stadium.

Speaker 5 (22:06):
You know.

Speaker 4 (22:06):
It's it's different as well when you're living in a
small town or an area where there isn't a pro
team or college team to go.

Speaker 1 (22:13):
No, I know it wasn't there yet, but I am
picturing Dan Bayer going down the slide with Bernie the Brewer.
But I know, I know, I know it wasn't around yet,
but I'm just picturing a little Dan Byer going down
the slide.

Speaker 4 (22:27):
True story, they used to have like there was a
chalet and Bernie would slide in on a home run
and the balloons would go. I thought they went after
every single run, and I was so disappointed when like
a run scored and he didn't go down the slide
and then balloons would be sent out. But they only
did that during home runs.

Speaker 1 (22:44):
But the same with Shay and Cityfield. As a kid,
I thought anytime something could happened, the Apple would come
over and they're like, no, Richie, only a home run.
I had to wait for, like Darryl Strubberry to burning
the game. Yes, yeah, and I saw my kids learning
the game, which is it's all full circle. But Danny,
this will be to you mean that you're a Raiders fan.
You talked about your first sport sports memories, you would

(23:05):
think rich is at the eighty six Meds. So the
Niners team that beat the Dolphins, because that's my wheelhouse
forty nine ers mets.

Speaker 3 (23:11):
Right.

Speaker 1 (23:13):
My dad was a gambling man in Stillis and he
was in his company's box pool for the Super Bowl.
And I remember my dad bitching and complaining that all
the numbers I got eight and nine, these are the
worst numbers because I was a little boy.

Speaker 2 (23:27):
I was four or five years old. My dad and
he's trying to explain to me.

Speaker 1 (23:30):
He was trying to explain to me a football box
pool for the Super Bowl, and he's like, but they're
not good, Richie, eight and nine trash numbers.

Speaker 2 (23:37):
Oh damn it.

Speaker 1 (23:38):
Like he was all mad. And the Raiders won thirty
eight to nine. And remember my dad flipping out and
being like, oh, we're going on a trip. I remember
as a little boy being my like, Dad's really excited.

Speaker 2 (23:51):
Boy. You remember your famili's reacting to those big moments too,
Even though you didn't really know what was going on.
You remember them being excited about it, which made you
feel excited. And yeah, man, looking back, it makes me
feel weird that there's so many people that, as Rob
Parker would say, pooh pooh on sports, when so many

(24:12):
great family moments and foundations to so many great memories
are made that way.

Speaker 3 (24:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
I mean, look at it. Right now.

Speaker 1 (24:19):
Are pals carrying Paul who are stop stop by the
studio to say hi.

Speaker 2 (24:23):
They're at the Rose Bowl because the Gophers played there.

Speaker 1 (24:24):
Like families, they trips and they you know, they bomb
sports connect.

Speaker 2 (24:30):
Yeah, and we've talked about a million times.

Speaker 1 (24:32):
That's the only way sometimes to connect with another dad
at the school.

Speaker 2 (24:35):
Yeah, exactly. It's great for small talk and for solid
memories and rich no regrets taking your kids yesterday. So
it's getting late early. Let's get into it. Things that
make you go, hmmmm, things that make you go, things
that make you go.

Speaker 1 (24:57):
I'm going to give you one thing to maybe go
and then if you want, you know, let's kick into
Dan Bayer think about it.

Speaker 2 (25:02):
Take everyone's feedback.

Speaker 8 (25:03):
Perfect.

Speaker 1 (25:04):
The first thing is today is Steven A. Smith's birthday,
and it's Jared Goff's birthday. What a present Goff gave
stephen A With the Dallas Cowboys getting trounced by the
line yesterday Jerry Jones' birthday, and let me tell you
how many times could they pan to a sad Jerry Jones?

Speaker 3 (25:24):
Right?

Speaker 2 (25:24):
You got a sad birthday? Sad birthday.

Speaker 1 (25:27):
So my observation is, if you're a Dallas Cowboys fan,
you gotta be a little confused.

Speaker 2 (25:31):
That's like, Yo, where are we right now? Like not
a good spot.

Speaker 1 (25:34):
I mean, you have weapons, you have good marquee players,
but like, where where do you go?

Speaker 2 (25:39):
Well, technically you're still in the mix, yeah, I mean,
but they're not looking good. Think about it.

Speaker 1 (25:45):
The things that made you go hmmm, NFL Playoff, Baseball,
the fight game.

Speaker 2 (25:49):
Whatever it was.

Speaker 1 (25:50):
We'll take your feedback next and we'll go over all
of ours. But let's go to Dan Buyer for an update.

Speaker 3 (25:54):
dB.

Speaker 4 (25:55):
It's get you an update of what's happening at Dodger Stadium.
In Game two of the National League Championship Series that
you can see right now on Fox. Mets continue to
lead the Dodgers six nothing now. On the top of
the fifth inning.

Speaker 2 (26:09):
I was telling my girlfriend's dad that he needs some
of those bad boys because he's in the middle of
nowhere here in Idaho, like in the mountains of Cascade
or something like that.

Speaker 3 (26:18):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (26:18):
I'm like, you need some rapid radios, dude. I think
you just made that up the mountains of Cascade.

Speaker 2 (26:23):
No, I'm serious. I'm lying from Idaho right now. Everybody
else on the West side, Rich gotta be loving it
right now. I hope you're having a Mark Fiento sort
of day because he put your team on the plus
side with a Grand Slam and a home run from
the door. So your Mets are looking good right now.
But like we do Rich every Monday.

Speaker 1 (26:40):
Outside of Mets and Dodgers fans, yeah, i'd imagine the
same way Danny felt last night. I'm feeling now like, oh,
this is a nice lead. I'm not very stressed. Six
nothing still, Six is not enough against a team like
the Dodgers. But most fans, I'm guessing, like a Dan
Bayer who doesn't have a horse in the race, is thinking, yeah, dude,
two blowouts in Games one and two. Come on, Mets
and Dodgers, give me something exciting.

Speaker 4 (27:01):
What I loved was Rich during one of the innings
again telling Danny G like, hey, your lineup, like basically
patronizing them Steve like it was like it was six
to nothing and basically saying your lineup has a chance
to come back when we all know it's over.

Speaker 2 (27:15):
The Dodgers know it's over. You know, let me nice.

Speaker 4 (27:17):
It was so nice if you rich to take Danny
G's feelings into account.

Speaker 3 (27:21):
But I mean, this bad boy is over with.

Speaker 1 (27:24):
Most times I would say what I said was bs
and just you know, being nice. But watching the Dodgers
lineup last night, being at Dodger Stadium for real, from
Otani down, it's one of the best line It's like
the night it's like a late nineties Yankees lineup where
you're like, where's the weakest. I saw a lineup Cavino
of the Yankees back then, and you had like Robbie
Cano batting seventh or eighth, like what there are Sometimes

(27:47):
a team's lineup.

Speaker 2 (27:48):
Is absurd, and I feel that way about the Dodgers.

Speaker 3 (27:51):
The little hope I was holding onto was the Tao
Grand Slam against the Padres, because remember the Dodgers getting
blown out in that game, and then you looked up
and it was six to five all of a sudden.

Speaker 1 (28:01):
So again, it could still happen. But you guys did
have a couple on and a key spot and the
Mets got out of it. So that's sometimes those moments
you're like, oh, that was the chance to creep back
in a little. But hey, we uh knock on wood,
we're only halfway through.

Speaker 3 (28:13):
The stopping reasonable, let's rich just let it go, you know.

Speaker 2 (28:16):
Yeah, and I giving up one hit? No, Maxi Mons
is a bomb, so say yeah, Kirks, see.

Speaker 3 (28:25):
Yeah he heard us.

Speaker 4 (28:27):
Oh nobody was on though, so it's still a five
run league.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
Was son of a It stops it like we do
every Monday. Let's get into it. Things that made you
go hmmm, and Rich, I wrote a bunch of things down.
They're not all football related, just a little bit of everything.
Like I know nobody's gonna say this. I don't want
to take anyone's answer, so by all means eight seven
seven ninety nine out fox.

Speaker 3 (28:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (28:53):
I did watch the Arthur bit. There be a fight
versus Dimitri Beevil. I'm tight now, Bibles the guy that
packed Canelo at one seventy five, right, yeah, and I
thought he won this fight, yet Better Bev won the decision,
so he's the undisputed light heavyweight champion. And we say
this all the time after watching a good competitive fight.

(29:13):
But it really baffles my mind to see how two
people could watch the same fight and have two different,
completely different observations, takeaways, and opinions on who won that fight. Well,
you know what, because for me, it was clear as
day that Bible won the fight, but better Biev got
the decision because he's the aggressor. Some people see the
aggressor as the winner. The aggressor is not always the winner.

Speaker 3 (29:36):
Guys.

Speaker 2 (29:36):
If you're getting punched in the face every time you're
moving forward, you're not winning the fight. That is true.

Speaker 1 (29:41):
However, there are other things. It depends on. I'm pointing
out the obvious. Sometimes it depends on who you're watching with.
And I give the example, not the name drop, but
Covino and I were in Mexico once at an event
and we watched We dipped away from an event we
were supposed to be hosting. We went to a local
bar in Mexico to watch Floyd Mayweather Junior take on

(30:04):
Oscar de la Hoya. Yeah, and you would have thought
unanimous Oscar de la Hoya whooped his ass because we
were watching with a bunch of Mexican people in Mexico.
And you know, I still think he did win. It
was a close fight because every time, every time he
Oscar got one little shot and the place erupted. Meanwhile,
when Maybeweather was working him the whole time, no one reacted.

Speaker 2 (30:25):
So it's reaction.

Speaker 1 (30:26):
It's also when you don't have the copy box in
front of you and you don't know who's landing what.
There are times where I'm watching a fight and then
I see like, oh, he landed twice the punches. I'm
not seeing that.

Speaker 2 (30:37):
It's the eye test. It's just how people perceive things,
who you're watching, who you're rooting for. And it also
makes me say, hm, that this fight happened and so
many people missed it because it was one of those Yeah,
you might not know their names, but it was a
legitimate fight. But it happened in Saudi Arabia early Saturday,
so a lot of people missed it. So makes you
say him a little bit, Now, how about this man?

(31:02):
The Buccaneers fifty one twenty seven over the Saints. The
Saints scored twenty seven in the second quarter, and that
was it. They took the lead in the second so
you're like, wow, man, the Saints are coming back in
this one pretty good and they couldn't score again.

Speaker 1 (31:18):
After the Saints are trash. Baker Mayfield, if listen, Baker.

Speaker 2 (31:23):
Played like three picks in that game.

Speaker 1 (31:24):
Baker played great minus a few bad decisions. Take away
those Baker Mayfield interceptions. That game shows you that the
Saints are not very good and you.

Speaker 2 (31:34):
Know what, not consistent at all. What are we talking
about early in the season.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
How my prediction was the Saints are the worst in
the NFL and then I looked like a dope like
everyone when they were two and zero.

Speaker 2 (31:45):
Well, what have they done since that? Haven't won?

Speaker 1 (31:49):
So are the Saints coming back to reality? I know
they had Rattler and not Derek Carr, but still the
Saints might be mediocause that was one.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
Of the things. The second quarter makes me say, like,
did the Buccaneers just you know, off the gas for
a little bit? They let him back in the game,
because then they stopped them the next two quarters after that,
but they look solid. So that made me say, you.

Speaker 1 (32:08):
Know what made me go hmm, Danny g We all
know that the Vikings are five and oh, I wish
I had someone from like the Elias Sports preover here
on standby. I wonder if mathematically, because the NFC North
has to play each other, they'll play each other twice
each as you know, does that mean it's impossible for
every team in that division to make the playoffs? And

(32:30):
I say that because as of right now, the Packers
Jordan loved look great this week. Ye therefore, and two
Caleb Williams is turning into the guy we thought he
was at USC. They're four and two, four and one
the Detroit Lions and five and oh, I'm sorry, three
on one the Detroit Lions are because they had the
bye week ready and five and oh, Vikings.

Speaker 2 (32:49):
Is it possible? Is it four to one?

Speaker 3 (32:51):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (32:51):
Four and one?

Speaker 1 (32:52):
Is it possible for all of those teams to make
the postseason mathematically, because again, they still have to all
play each other, which means there's losses in there. But
that's that division. Sit Scooball. Two pitches went from immaculate
in the postseason to hit a batter with the bases
load and gave up a run. And then the next
pitch grand Salami. So hey, listen, the postseason, it's just

(33:16):
every pitch. There's no other sport where it goes from
like you could casually watch to every pitch just means
so much.

Speaker 2 (33:23):
I can't get enough.

Speaker 1 (33:25):
And your Yankees in Cleveland kickoff in an hour for now,
about an hour and a half. Cavino, I have a
dumb question. Now if you want to still go over
a couple of things that made you go, yeah, we'll
do that. We'll do that, And then I have a
dumb thought based on Kelsey and Taylor going to the
game tonight.

Speaker 2 (33:44):
Perfect, all right, So quarterback question number one or thing
that made me go hmmm, Especially Danny Geo backed me
up on this too. Especially if you're watching Red Zone.
You're always catching these highlights of Joe Flanco, right, and
he's doing his thing, and he immediately makes his presence
known against the Titans. You're like, look at this dude,
He's just leading the team, knows how to win. He

(34:05):
has this intangible right of how to win. One hundred
and eighty nine yards two tuddies over the weekend. Can
a guy like Joe Flacco win Comeback Player of the
Year like two times and I don't think that's possible. No,
I don't think it's possible, But it does make you
say whom that this guy could lead a team in
this way, yet he was still playing back up. It's
like no one else wanted to really take a chance

(34:25):
on that guy. So I mean, look, he's doing his thing,
but it does make me say hm, because they treat
him as if he's one hundred and thirty eight years old.
I get old guy on the field, but that guy's
got a lot of game left or just that instinct
to know how to win in the NFL. So that
made me say hmmm. And something else I kept hearing
a lot about was the matchup between the Commanders and

(34:47):
the Ravens. Obviously, Ravens win thirty twenty three.

Speaker 1 (34:50):
No shame in the guard No shame in the Commander's
game though, Well that's what I was going to say.
There was this hype leading up to the build up
of you know, Jayden Daniels possibly like the next Lamar Jackson.
And you see Lamar Jackson doing his thing, and you
know he's an elite player, but man, when you see
a young rookie Jayden Daniels sort of going blow for

(35:12):
blow with Lamar Jackson. It does make you scratch your
head and say, hmm, this dude is legit. And I
heard a lot of commentators speaking what I was feeling,
in the sense that, all right, he's not at the
Lamar Jackson level, but you could argue that at.

Speaker 2 (35:28):
This stage of his career he's ahead of Lamar Jackson.
This is his first season and he's playing this well.
It's really cool to see these rivalries build and these
matchups build. This dude is a gamer man. It was
cool to see.

Speaker 1 (35:41):
I think, if there's such thing as a okay loss,
I'm not saying any loss in a you know, a
very short seventeen game schedule, no one wants to lose, but.

Speaker 2 (35:50):
No, they all count. You know.

Speaker 1 (35:51):
That to me showed that, well, the Commanders can hang
with an elite team.

Speaker 2 (35:56):
And I think that's and he said that it showed
him that heat not only could he hang, but his
team could hang with a really competitive Ravens team in
the NFL. So if anything, Rich, it's a confidence builder
for that team. So you're right, there was something positive
out of that loss.

Speaker 1 (36:13):
I think another takeaway would be that there were some
games as Dan Byron and I were talking about in
the kitchen earlier. There were some games that weren't very surprising,
like you sort of felt like you knew it would happen.
Texans put a whoopin on the Patriots, however, he saw
Drake may have some moments where you're like, all right,
he is their guy.

Speaker 2 (36:31):
He's yeah, he will be good. He is their guy.
The Eagles snuck past.

Speaker 1 (36:35):
The Browns barely, but a win that I don't think
Eagle fans are gonna be that stoked about.

Speaker 2 (36:41):
A Win's a win.

Speaker 1 (36:42):
But they did not look sharp that Eagles team. There's
something still not clicking. They have too much talent to
not be clicking. So a win. Nonetheless, I thought it
was cool to see Jordan Love. It seems like whatever
remnants of the injury he had, he seems sort of
on point again. So Packers fan should be stoked. And
Danny G what's the store with the Raiders? Did that

(37:03):
game for a second fell close and then it just
got out of hand?

Speaker 3 (37:06):
Yeah, Raider Nation wants the oc Luke Getzi out of there. Yeah,
like yesterday. It seems like his first drive, his first
twelve plays or whatever are scripted in those work out great.
The Raiders have looked awesome the last two weekends. On
their first drive, and then after that when he needs
to call the game out of his pocket, everything falls

(37:26):
apart offensively, and then everything that could go against them
went against them. Anytime they either scored or had an
interception in the red zone. Every good play they had
in the game got called back on a penalty.

Speaker 1 (37:39):
There are times where the momentum killer of a big
play called back for irrelevant like hole, then the other
side of the line of scrimmage, Like the other day,
I forgot what it was, Dan, it was your Seahawks.
They had a big play with DK metcalf and the
penalty that called it back was one of the wide
receivers on the complete other side of the line of

(38:01):
scrimmage at the other end of the field did a
little movement with his leg and it was like illegal motion.
Fifty yard play gets called back. Those momentum killers will
change the complexity of a game.

Speaker 4 (38:12):
I will say, in the Raiders case, no DeVante Adams,
no Jacobe Myers, it's.

Speaker 3 (38:20):
No Christian Wilkins. Yeah, they're stunk, very shorthanded. In Pittsburgh's
coming off of a tough loss to Dallas. I think
they'd rebound just I know gets he's getting heat, but
he is the one thing Dan too like. I think
it was when the third quarter was ending, the Raiders
scored and I'm like, all right, they're back in the game.
And then the refs through a late flag they called

(38:41):
him for delay of game. It was one of those
deals where the clock had just hit zero and normally
they give you like a half a beat after that,
and name they normally do yeah, and instead they change
sides of the field. Two plays Raider later, TJ. Watt
punches the ball out and it's a turnover for the Steeler.
So the Steelers defense was great.

Speaker 2 (39:02):
I'll make it quick. Two more things that made me
say hm rich. It involves tonight's game. In fact, Bill's
at the Jets. That meme that went viral did make
me say hmm. And it makes me feel like Aaron
Rodgers has even more to prove tonight with high stakes
on a Monday night football game after firing their coach.

(39:23):
They scored ninety three points at this stage of the
season last year in twenty twenty three with Zach Wilson.
Ninety three points scored this year in twenty twenty four
with Aaron Rodgers, So it's not like they made some
crazy sort of improvement. He scored the same amount of
points last year in this year, so I'm thinking he
has to have a big game tonight. That made me say, hmm,

(39:46):
not a big game for Rodgers.

Speaker 1 (39:47):
Then then you could almost start to argue that this
Aaron Rodgers Jets experiment, it might be uh, it might
be not over yet, but it might be looking like
it didn't work out a ficially right. And in the
box office this weekend, it is spooky season, his postseason,
his football season.

Speaker 2 (40:05):
But in the box office this weekend, Terrifier three was
number one, meaning and proving that he's the number one
clown in Hollywood right now, making about twenty million dollars. Meanwhile,
Joker no plummeted eighty one percent. So you think Joker
is the coolest clown, No, Terrifier's the coolest clown. You
got the happy Halloween season, everybody. He got the bases

(40:27):
loaded at Dodger Stadium. I see it now, I see Iglecias.
Is that an error or a hard hit ball? I
can't tell if it went off of Manaia, but.

Speaker 3 (40:39):
Let's go Raley snake that is Is that an error?

Speaker 2 (40:45):
That's an error? Huh, Yeah, that was an error. It
took a funky hop though.

Speaker 1 (40:49):
It took a funky hop because it I believe it
did hit off the pitcher a little bit.

Speaker 2 (40:53):
It hit off. Yeah, it definitely took a weird hop.

Speaker 3 (40:57):
So you saw that snakes glithering around the Dodger dugout right.

Speaker 2 (41:02):
Yeah, if people aren't watching, they did show that. So
maybe that's the momentum shifter for the Dodgers. There was
a snake in the.

Speaker 3 (41:08):
Dugout, yeah, Rich, Rich, it's our grimace.

Speaker 2 (41:14):
Rally snak.

Speaker 3 (41:15):
How dare you well?

Speaker 2 (41:17):
Just is now?

Speaker 3 (41:17):
Now?

Speaker 2 (41:17):
Now I have the nervous stomach for the next five minutes. No,
you got this, dude, I get out of the sham
and you got it.

Speaker 3 (41:24):
Somebody punctured spot.

Speaker 2 (41:26):
We'll keep you posted. Anything else that you want to share,
things that made you go home this weekend in world
of sports and entertainment. Any of your observations feel free
to share at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 1 (41:39):
Yeah, I think the easiest. Oh, by the way, we
hit our parlay again. If you've been following along with
our Cavenio, Rich Shoular power parlay again.

Speaker 2 (41:48):
We hit our three for three parlay.

Speaker 3 (41:49):
You better bring lunch in tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (41:51):
And I said it last week.

Speaker 1 (41:53):
Some of these point spreads are starting to look like
they make sense to me. And one of them, I
was like, why is it Lanta only like a five
point favorite over Carolina?

Speaker 2 (42:04):
I know that game. It didn't.

Speaker 1 (42:05):
It took until the fourth quarter for Atlanta to really
take off. But Carolina's no good like if you watched
if you watch that game at all, they Atlanta let
them hang around and still lost by eighteen. So that
was my observation that Atlanta seems like they're real. Kirk
Cousins is going to continue to put up numbers, and
Andy Dalton still throws interceptions. He's Andy Dalton. So my

(42:26):
observations from week six of the NFL.

Speaker 2 (42:29):
Rich, I know we're moving on. But you know what
else stood out Dan Byer's update when he talked about
Mike McDaniel. I saw that headline today too. It's like
they're gonna let Tua back and Elgibul to play this year.
To me, that's like what I mean a league that
takes such pride and safety protocol yeah, but you don't
let this dude come back in twenty twenty four.

Speaker 1 (42:47):
I mean, I could be wrong, but if he comes
back this year or next year, isn't it really the same?

Speaker 2 (42:53):
If he has cleared the.

Speaker 1 (42:54):
Concussion protocol at that stage is like, what are you
waiting for?

Speaker 2 (42:58):
It's like, now is no deal? In a month is
no different than a year from now? Right there is
because you get more time to heal, I think with
concussions if not, if you don't wait enough time, it's
like you're compounding those injuries if you don't wait until
it's fully healed or until enough time has gone by.
I don't know exactly how they work, but yeah, I

(43:19):
mean the more time, I think maybe the better off
you are. He's not playing Week seven, we know that,
but they did say sometime in twenty twenty four that
did make me say, sorry to backtrack, but that's something
else that stood out to me.

Speaker 4 (43:30):
I think it's interesting that you bring that up, Kevino,
because I don't think anybody here would disagree with what
you're saying, except the NFL would. And to Rich's point,
what the NFL wants you to know is that we've
taken all of the steps. We have done all of this,
and if you're clear, you're cleared. That's the way it is.
They don't want to hear about playing it safe. I

(43:53):
don't want to hear about any of that because that
would admit to the point that they don't want to
admit to.

Speaker 3 (44:00):
You know, how severe these things can be.

Speaker 1 (44:03):
So you're right, it's there's no difference if they if
he has cleared concussion protocol. It's not like waiting till
next year. According to what the NFL is saying, it's
not like anything changes from now until next year.

Speaker 2 (44:14):
Well, you know what else is in the news simultaneously, though, dude,
I'm not even kidding you. Like Aaron Hernandez's brother is
on certain talk shows this week talking about the docu
series about his brother. They're talking about the brain damage
he had, the tough life that he had, but the
CTE he had was like third level, third degree, some
of the worst brain injuries you could have. So you

(44:37):
have to take it serious. When they're breaking it down
like that, and then you're hearing that they're letting his
dude play again, it's wild.

Speaker 1 (44:43):
So we shall see any any timeline on that, dB
or I'm not play you in the spot again.

Speaker 4 (44:47):
But no, what Cove said, he's not It was correct.
He's not eligible to come off until week eight at
the earliest. Whether he does at that point different story.
But that's the situation right now.

Speaker 1 (44:59):
Not trying to sell insensitive because one's a brain injury,
one's not. One's ahead injury. Who do we see first
this season? Tua or Christian McCaffrey.

Speaker 3 (45:07):
Mccaf ah, Yeah, that's a good one.

Speaker 2 (45:09):
Right, because I feel like we are we gonna see
either this year.

Speaker 4 (45:12):
I think there's a legitimate chance that the footy Niners
could just keep him out to the bye if that's
the case, which is like early November, right, yeah, So
oh gosh, I'll say two of then if you want
an answer, I'll say to it.

Speaker 3 (45:24):
Danny G.

Speaker 2 (45:24):
Who do we see first? Tua or McCaffrey.

Speaker 1 (45:27):
And I know Danny G and I both equally distracted
because it's one out basis loaded for the Dodgers. Danny
G's trying to produce, but I see him like, I
don't want to talk to you right now.

Speaker 2 (45:37):
Where are you stall? The more things make me go.

Speaker 3 (45:39):
Yeah, I want DV to say the game's over again.
That gave me good luck last time. Oh base hit.
There we go two score rally snake geez, and it's

Speaker 3 (47:41):
By the way, Spot is the fact checker during this game.
When I say your name, the clock is going to begin.
Here's the first category pushing out the bust. You have
five seconds to name the NFL team who's top ten

Sam and Colorado, we got you back here, you got

note though, with that, Sorry, can I give a little tidbiture?
The Pro Football Hall of Fame does not does not
designate by team like Major League Baseball does with the logo,

(49:45):
so representation could be at any point with a team
you are included on that like even Dwight Freeney spent
like a minute with the Seahawks when he got enshrined.
They had a Seahawks logo option as part of this.

Speaker 2 (49:59):
Do you mean like the Big Smith Cardinals?

Speaker 3 (50:02):
Absolutely? Yeah. And a couple of the lists were slightly different.
I went with Pro Footballnetwork dot Com because their list
matched one other, so I went with one that had
I'm sure one didn't copy the other. That never happened. Yeah,
all right, we're gonna go to the Wikipedia. What second
category here? Bullpen Bravado. You have five seconds to name

Bears on the list?

Speaker 9 (55:20):
Raiders number ten with fourteen seventeen and as Colts I
mentioned number twelve thirteen ninety four Colts, jeez.

Speaker 2 (55:27):
Thanks thanks for playing Colorado.

Speaker 3 (55:29):
Yeah, Sam, thank you for uh for playing there.

Speaker 2 (55:33):
Appreciate you all right here, Yay, you're the man. Keep
listening you to man? You know what rich? I thought,
you know, because Goff had some pretty big numbers. He's
playing well. I thought maybe Saint Brown put them on
that list. But did you hear that story about him
over the weekend? No, you want Saint Brown?

Speaker 1 (55:50):
You you were telling me about how he's Uh, there's
DM drama.

Speaker 2 (55:54):
What is it? Dude, it's kind of I'll just tell
you real quick, all right, whether you want to dive
into it's up to you. But I Sat Brown a mona.
Saint Brown apparently, him and Jordan Lewis were going at
it Dallas cornerback. We're going at it the whole game, right,
just trash talking, trash talking. And after the game, after

(56:14):
the Lions won, they won in a dominant fashion, he
goes to social media on his IG story and he's like,
what they say? What they say? So Saint Brown is
just sort of taunting the Cowboys, but sort of taunting
Jordan Lewis apparently, and then Jordan Lewis slid into Saint
Brown's DMS and he said you will be so he responded, okay,

(56:37):
so again Cowboys. Jordan Lewis responded to Saint Brown's story
with a U A B comment, Oh B, I yeah,
you know what he said, right, So then it doesn't
end there. Then Saint Brown's screenshot it just to let
the world know that he's in his walls and that

(56:58):
he's pizzling him off. He screenshot and posted it out there.
And now Jordan Lewis is like, yo, that was between
me and him, but he went and proved that he's
a B and posted that publicly. So it's the question
of you know, your screenshots and things like that, You're
these things are meant to be private, yet you're posting
it publicly, so that's weak in itself. And then there
it becomes this NFL question of is this crossing the

(57:20):
line to be trash talking and diving into someone's dms
in this way? Like did Jordan Lewis cross the line
by coming with obscenities and cursing and coming at even
though it's at the NFL this is what they're saying
and coming at Saint Brown in this way? Is that
line crossing today's world?

Speaker 1 (57:38):
I look at it like I look at it like
here we are we're talking about grown men in the NFL.
The most competitive dude you'll know and ever bump into
I sort of like the idea of the trash talking.
I'll never shy away from trash talking or or shy
away from celebrations.

Speaker 2 (57:54):
I think that's a great part. Can think about people
sharing your public dms that way? Yeah, I think it's
always trashy.

Speaker 3 (57:59):
One.

Speaker 1 (58:00):
I think it's trashy when a girl publishes a DM like,
look at this guy hitting on me, Like the guy's
just trying to shoot a shot, don't you what Brown did?

Speaker 2 (58:07):
He's like, I guess not not in that sort of way,
but he did share like that private trash talk publicly,
and then again rose the question of is this going
too far anyway in the NFL. I say no to that,
but I do find it a little odd that he
shared the private DM in the screenshot. So some drama
between Dallas and the Cowboys.

Speaker 3 (58:27):
There you have it.
