Speaker 2 (00:20):
Can I just tell you what happened? I know you
have tons of stories. You were there at Cityfield, Rich,
so I can imagine what you're dealing with. You're still
You're still on your streak of not ever witnessing a
victory in the postseason.

Speaker 3 (00:35):
It's hilarious at this point.

Speaker 2 (00:36):
You are mush Davis. So we'll get to that. But yesterday, dude,
I was going out to dinner, right. I was taking
my daughter and some family out to dinner yesterday, all
while this was going on. Now, I had planned this
dinner before this, before I knew the game was on.
It just happened to be all happening at once. That's
how life is sometimes. So I'm there dry and I

(01:02):
have the game on on my phone, pull up, sitting down.
I still got the game on, and Cleveland walks off
in extra innings. I went from extreme highs. I went
from Judge ties it up with a bomb off, the
greatest reliever in baseball. Then Stanton hits the Stantonian Blast.

Speaker 4 (01:25):
I'm like, I can't believe this.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
And then you got the best reliever in the postseason
there to close it out, Luke Weaver.

Speaker 1 (01:31):
I'm like, yes, dude, I'm as high as high could be.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
And then they lose it because Weaver gives up a
tying home run and then Clay Holmes not my homes
let's up a walk off.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
Can you tell me how on God's Green Earth?

Speaker 2 (01:49):
As the expression goes, how am I supposed to have
a nice dinner knowing that this just happened? They just
seated me. Now I'm supposed to pretend like I'm happy
to be there?

Speaker 1 (01:58):
Dude? It was lame. And he said, ah, blaze.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
And I'll tell you what, man, I try not to
let sports affect my mood that much.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
It's impossible. I know that.

Speaker 2 (02:08):
But I was out and I'm like, oh, I'm gonna
have a nice night for the rest of the night.
After dinner, when I got home, I was moping around
and it felt like not a heartbreaker. People was a heartbreak.
It wasn't heartbreak. It's like a gut punch. I can't
handle it anymore. Yeah, it's like I can't believe you
know when you you're walking around like what happened? What's wrong? Like, Oh,

(02:29):
that's what's wrong. Yeah, they just lost in the worst
fashion possible. It was so weak. It was such a
great game, but so weak of a feeling.

Speaker 3 (02:38):
Man, we I want to say what everyone else is
thinking now about you, that the Yankees are up to one,
so chitty.

Speaker 2 (02:47):
That doesn't change what happened, dude, it would be up
three nothing, Hey, today's light up.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
It absolutely does not.

Speaker 2 (02:55):
You think I'm the only guy with the sentiment of
that was a gut punch or a heartbreaker. That was
like a tough, tough loss. After that comeback, dude, Even
the manager of your team, Aaron Boon's like, what are
you gonna do with classic?

Speaker 4 (03:08):
Ain't I right?

Speaker 2 (03:08):
It was a classic? I'm not denying that. That doesn't
deny the fact that or changed the fact that it
was a gut punch of a game.

Speaker 1 (03:18):
But here's where I was going anyway.

Speaker 2 (03:20):
So perhaps you're right, because Rich, before we hear about
your game and get into it and get involved and
get into weekend hobnobbing, Rich's big TV Game of the
week and all the fun stuff we do on Fridays.
I feel like the older I'm getting and I'm in
complete denial of that, the less I could handle.

Speaker 3 (03:38):
Man.

Speaker 2 (03:38):
I feel like my threshold of handling things it's just
not what it used to be. I'll give you an example.
Turbulence on an airplane. I've been flying across country for years, right,
Never once did I give a Diddley squat about turbulence
that I care about anything flight related or anything like that. Dude,

(04:00):
I feel any turbulence nowadays. Maybe it's because I'm a parent,
maybe because I feel vulnerable, maybe because I'm getting older.
I don't know what it is. I can't handle it.
I get nervous, I get anxiety. And that's how I
felt after that stupid game yesterday. I'm like, I can't
handle this. I was watching when my eyes closed, like
this hands in front of my eyes.

Speaker 3 (04:19):
But when the Yankees are up to one and likely
will still win in five or six games, I hope.
So you know what you sound like. You sound like
the guy who someone says, yo, Man, I lost my wife,
she dumped me, and I lost my job, and you're like, Yo,
that's terrible, man. Guess what my goldfish died? I feel you.

Speaker 2 (04:38):
Yeah, all those things have happened to me, including the goldfish.
So I understand what strife is all about, what loss
is all about. And I'm telling you last night, why
do you just not take my word for it? Last
night was a gut punch. Regardless of up two games
to one, they would have been up three to nothing.

Speaker 1 (04:53):
They should have been.

Speaker 2 (04:54):
But it was an amazing win, and it showed the
resilience and greatness of Cleveland, and it was a fun game, just.

Speaker 5 (05:01):
Not for me.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
I'm not denying your gut punch, but Danny g are
you backing me up on the On the I'm certainly
not saying tone deaf, but when your team has not
multiple games and a best of seven, I mean that's
you know.

Speaker 2 (05:13):
Watch social media. Every Yankee fan felt like I can't
believe that happened. That's hard to come back from. Every
game is a new game, but dude, that's a that
could be a major momentum shifter. Cleveland comes in with
major confidence. The Yankees are shaking a little bit. They
thought they had it in the bag. Their relief pitching's
questionable now, so it totally changes the feeling and momentum

(05:39):
of the series unless they stop that bleeding today.

Speaker 5 (05:41):
You use the word right there, Cove, because my answer
to Rich is if your Mets had a walk off
like that today against my Dodgers, wouldn't that make you
at least feel like, Oh, we have a little momentum, Danny.

Speaker 3 (05:55):
I'll tell you this. I'll give you this. I'm not there.
I could promise you. The Mets are gonna win to Yeah,
I feel it. They're not going to lose three in
a row at City Field. That place was electric. Mets
will win today, They'll force a game six.

Speaker 5 (06:09):
I took care of this. I sent a COVID cutout
of you to the stadium, so you're still there, buddy, yo.

Speaker 3 (06:17):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (06:17):
To wrap up my final thought, man, I feel like
the older I get, the more I feel like I
can't handle this. Man, I can't watch. It's making me nervous.
I'm pacing around like a maniac and just dealing with that.
Yesterday I was like, ah, this is terrible. So anyway,
that was my story. But congrats to Cleveland Man. One
of the greatest postseason games continuing with the whole sentiment

(06:39):
and story of this might be the best postseason where
the stars have risen and we've seen some great baseball
now then and I don't know, I'd say in the
past ten years.

Speaker 3 (06:51):
Yeah, no doubt. Hey, I was Sam if you could
find the call on TV that was unbelievable. And have
you guys seen the aerial footage of Cleveland where from
like a half mile from the stadium, the sound and
the fireworks like that place.

Speaker 2 (07:03):
Erupted, erupted, dude erupted as a casual fan or no
horse in the race, that had to be fun to watch, Like,
oh my god, because.

Speaker 1 (07:13):
I'll tell you what.

Speaker 2 (07:13):
When Judge and Stanton hit those back to back home runs,
my phone was blowing up, just people hitting me up.

Speaker 1 (07:20):
Like dude, are you watching this? And I wasn't responding.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
I feel like that's a jinx, like don't bother me
in those moments, I'm not responding.

Speaker 1 (07:27):
I'm in the zone.

Speaker 2 (07:28):
And then of course at the end, no one hits
you up because it's misery. But these games have been fantastic, man,
fantastic games.

Speaker 3 (07:36):
If you didn't hear the TV call of when the
Guardians beat the Yanks. It was you know, we've been
criticizing and everyone's been, you know, super critical of all
the baseball TV announcers. This was a call for the ages.
Take a listen.

Speaker 6 (07:51):
Oh oh, my goodness, Christmas, my goodness, Rinch.

Speaker 5 (08:16):
Have you heard the Spanish version?

Speaker 1 (08:18):
I would love to hear.

Speaker 5 (08:20):
I don't have it in front of me right now,
but I saw it on Sports Center this morning. The
announcer keep screaming fully stump it on full stop.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
Dude.

Speaker 2 (08:29):
People lost it, And yeah, Noel stepped up big Christmas
stepped up, huge, big lee in that moment. And of
course David Fry, who came into the pinch hit you
know with the walk off. It was just an amazing sight.
I just hated it as a Yankees fan, and rich
to keep you posted. Shohy continues his hot hitting started
the game off with a single against your Mets.

Speaker 3 (08:50):
I know, I'm watching my phone. I'm by the way,
I'm nice. From what I understand. The radio side was
just as good. I don't want to I don't want
to keep having you relive this, Cavino, But last night
Cleveland Guardians beating the Yanks. Take a listen.

Speaker 4 (09:06):
Swing out in the hammer deep.

Speaker 5 (09:13):
Cleveland, John Jen.

Speaker 4 (09:16):
No, well, swing on here high, hit deep.

Speaker 7 (09:21):
She goes, Oh my god, to run home run to
the bleacherson left bye, David Fry.

Speaker 3 (09:35):
Wow.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
Yeah, satiting, but props, you know, made it a series,
made it more exciting on the side. Note too, two
runners on for your Dodgers, Danny g and your Mets
are looking sloppy to start the game off, Rich Marte
with an error. There Martine with a big You don't
want to do that.

Speaker 5 (09:52):
So, oh, by the way, really quick, I found the
Spanish call.

Speaker 8 (09:54):
I'm sorry, Oh no, sorry, let's hear it.

Speaker 1 (10:19):
I heard over Baseball Baseball dB. What did you think
about all this? Well, I just had a question.

Speaker 9 (10:26):
Do you guys think like Spanish sports talk shows are
like here's the English.

Speaker 10 (10:30):
Call, and then they're going crazy like it's the reverse.
You don't think that that happens. No, that's so true.
You're right, but that's why they go ballistics. So there's
are those are always better? So yeah, oh man, dude,
what a game, what a night?

Speaker 3 (10:43):
And again to answer Dan Bayern, it's like a lot
of your friends think about it. A lot of times,
better parties, better vibe, like the Spanish announcers are creating
a vibe that you know, maybe you can't create with
a nerdy white guy announcer.

Speaker 11 (10:57):
You guys want Mexican food or really bland German food,
It's like, that's that's your option right there, right here's
the English call or this.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
That's so true. I never even thought of that, funny man.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
But again, I feel like the older you get, you're
supposed to be stronger, You're supposed to be able to.

Speaker 1 (11:12):
Handle more things, calm, cool and collected.

Speaker 2 (11:14):
I'm starting to feel the opposite on certain things where
I just can't like I mean, I can, but I
feel it more than ever cove.

Speaker 3 (11:22):
So yeah, I feel you big time on the traveling Now,
don't get me wrong, I'm pumped. Like we said about
our Seattle broadcast, our aubur And broadcast, I'm going to
be in Austin doing the show live the next couple
of days. Next week, I'm in New York. Now, every
time I got on a plane, it's a different feeling
than when I was in my twenties. I think it's
an eight. When you get a little older and you
have kids, you're like, there's just a I don't know

(11:45):
a little more anxiety.

Speaker 2 (11:45):
It's your mortality kicks in or something. I don't know,
Like I'm just more anxious about these things than I
ever was.

Speaker 3 (11:52):
Now based on what you said and what Danny said,
and you know, Covino. Since we're going to play those
calls from the Guardians last night, let me take you
back to four, another great time in your baseball life,
when the Red Sox came back three to zero. I
remember the sentiment was in Game four, don't let us
win tonight, speaking of big Poppy, big poppies. Chiseled beard

(12:15):
and fade must have been done three minutes before the
broadcast to night, because I saw him with Kevin Burkhart
and I'm like, is he I feel like they took
the barber cape off of.

Speaker 2 (12:24):
Him and they're like, anger live mich wul be He dude, Yes,
I got the precision el mantro.

Speaker 4 (12:31):
My barber.

Speaker 2 (12:32):
He cuts it up real nice, looking, very nice for
postseason and let's.

Speaker 3 (12:37):
Go gius science. Jeter's Baldo look was high and tight, fresh,
so I feel like the barber was on set two
minutes before. But to bring up Poppy, he was with
the sentiment of don't let us win tonight because then
you never know. And as the Mets just got out
of that second and third no out, jam Danny, the Dodgers,

(13:00):
as Colin cow Heard said, I'll back them up on this.
It's like a beautiful rom com versus the best team
in baseball, Like the Mets of the fun story, like
oh my God, and you know Lindor and my Girl
the Temptations performed tonight. The Mets are a fun story.
Grimace hawked to a girl, Timmy Dodgers. You can't argue

(13:23):
the Dodgers are a better on paper team. But if
you let the Mets hang around, and Menaya would pitch
game six, right and again, I'm not the guy jumping
ahead of myself, but if the Mets one tonight, it's
three to two, Game six, Manaia is the only guy
that seems unhittable right now that's pitching for the Mets.

(13:46):
You does not. It's not crazy to think a Game
seven could be forced.

Speaker 2 (13:50):
No, and it's that crazy to think that the Cleveland Indians,
I'm Guardians, I'm sorry, he could turn it all around
after today.

Speaker 1 (13:57):
It could be two to two.

Speaker 3 (13:59):
You should cat ansl you know, you should wish they
were the Cleveland Indians and Jake Taylor and wild at
Rick Vaudner.

Speaker 2 (14:05):
Playing I wish, yeah, I know that was me wish
thinking Rick, Sorry about that. I'm not sure what happened there.

Speaker 5 (14:09):
Again, do not want to crack the door open even slightly.
Anything could happen. And we saw the Dodgers they had
their backs against the wall with the padres, yes, and
beat them twice there in San Diego.

Speaker 1 (14:21):
That is that's just respect for the other teams. Dude.
You want to be able to stomp them when they're down.
That's it. You don't let them get back got up.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
It's like a boxing match, Dude, when a boxer knows
they got their guy hurt, there's a guy, there's a
great box rull finish them. You know you got to
be patient, right, you don't want to get caught. You
gotta be patient, But you want to finish that guy
when you know you got him hurt.

Speaker 1 (14:43):
You don't want to let him get back in the fight.
Say't do a baseball when your team.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
When that team is down, you want to stop them
because anything can happen.

Speaker 3 (14:51):
It's amazing to give your boxing analogy because it's true.

Speaker 1 (14:57):
If some guy's on the ropes.

Speaker 3 (14:58):
If he gets saved by the bell and he has
that in between rounds to just whoa, let me get
my composure, you might have lost your chance. So Danny,
you know, for your sake, Dodgers win today, you're all good.
If the Dodgers lose today, they're probably still good anyway.
But you're right, you don't want to keep that door
cracked open. It's just bad for business.

Speaker 2 (15:20):
I mean, he just brought up to two thousand and
four Red Sox. Anything's possible.

Speaker 1 (15:23):
Is it likely? No, but it's possible.

Speaker 2 (15:26):
So the Dodgers Mets are on as we speak. Yesterday's
games were insane Broncos with the big win over the Saints.
It's amazing that, like I said, Thursday Night football is
taking a back seat.

Speaker 3 (15:40):
And basically the Temptations just do Lindor's walk up song live.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
I'm you know, I'm watching it, so I don't know,
but it looked like, yeah, by.

Speaker 3 (15:50):
The way, that's something you don't really say on TV.
They his walk up song because he you know, he's
such a girl. Dad is my girl. Yeah, And the
crowd continues to sing the whole first verse even when
he's batting and it's like it's a really cool thing,
and they have the temptations out there tonight for Game
five and Queens. Now, I want to give you the
final stat line to show you the narrative that Rich

(16:11):
Davis may is the mush.

Speaker 1 (16:13):
Oh yeah, I went.

Speaker 3 (16:15):
To three games in the NLCS. The Mets were outscored
twenty seven to two.

Speaker 1 (16:22):
And how much did you pay for all that? I
don't want to tell you that torture for that cans.

Speaker 3 (16:28):
A better stack. Can I give you a better stat
that I just analyzed besides me watching my team be
outscored twenty seven to two over three games? Guess what
the Mets are with runners in scoring position? When I've
attended oh for seventeen with runners on base in scoring position.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
You're like a glutton for punishment.

Speaker 3 (16:49):
Oh look at that. Lindor leads off with a Hey,
you know why I'm not there?

Speaker 2 (16:52):
Yeah, so we established it. He is officially Mush Davis.
And if you want to, I got to say he
did a great job though yesterday. If you want to
live Rich's er coaster, it was just a downward spiral. Really,
if you want to watch his experience from City Field,
we did a very special live over promised from City
Field our bonus podcast, Rich brought you behind the scenes

(17:14):
live on our IG Live and it's all over our
social media at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 3 (17:21):
Danny G, did you watch any of it? Because I'm
imagining from the other side of things. You must have
got a kick out of watching me spiral.

Speaker 5 (17:26):
Yeah, it was gut wrenching. Brenda was giving me updates.
She's like, yo, he looks even sadder now, sadder sad
and you look cold by the way, Danny G. The
highlight might have been And I'm trying to be a
good sport about it. Listen, I'm not on the field.
I can't win.

Speaker 3 (17:40):
It sucks that my team's not winning when I'm there.
But I thought the funniest part that I could even
laugh at is in the eighth inning, they're like, oh,
it's time for the Billy Joel singalong, and I'm like,
and I lose it. I'm like, you expect me to
sing piano man right now?

Speaker 2 (17:54):
And you know what else is so sad about those moments?
And you can see it again at Covino and Rich.
I'm Steve Cavino, One foot in Dad Life, one foot
up your ace every afternoon here on Fox Sports Radio.
That's Rich Davis live from his sister's bathroom.

Speaker 5 (18:09):
I think that's not where he should be right now,
by the way.

Speaker 1 (18:14):
Oh you know it is.

Speaker 5 (18:14):
He's got such a nervous belly. Let me pull the
curtain back a little bit. No, he should be at
the Mets game right now. Alonzo would have struck out
all right, our boss. I don't know if I should
be saying this on the air or Nott, but our
boss gave Rich the approval the thumbs up to be
off the air today to miss today's show. Did Rich

(18:35):
go to the game and take our boss's love and
be like, thank you, dude, I want to see my team.

Speaker 1 (18:40):
Honestly, I don't think he could handle anymore.

Speaker 3 (18:42):
I couldn't you know what I said? It was so perfect.
When Pete got up bear Pete A. Lonzo gets up
with two on, I said, of course he's going to
hit a three run home run.

Speaker 4 (18:52):
Why would he not?

Speaker 3 (18:53):
And then the next pitch he digs a low pitch
out and hits a four hundred bomb.

Speaker 5 (18:57):
Rich is at the stadium.

Speaker 2 (18:58):
He just walked down to the tunnel on the on
the way out, so he wasn't like in the main area.
That's why it sounds like that. Hey, Mush Davis, much
Davis for people just joining us, millions of people just
tuning in at different times all the time. Give us
your mush stats again. Please, the mushtats are great. Please
just one more time, because now your Mets are up
three something. You're not there and your Mets like they're

(19:20):
they're on fire right now. Yeah, and Danny g doesn't
want any just get loaded right now, right now, So
give us your mushstats before we move on.

Speaker 1 (19:28):
We should be in the Hall of Fame. What should
be on Baseball Reference.

Speaker 3 (19:32):
It extends beyond baseball. I'm a forty nine Ers fan.
I'm oh and three going to the Super Bowl live.
My daughter and son are both oh and four, going
to live Mets games during the regular season. I was
at the World Series in two thousand when the Mets lost.
I was at the World Series in twenty fifteen when
the Mets lost. I went to the one game Wildcard.
In twenty sixteen, when the Mets lost, I went to

(19:52):
six NLCS Game seven Mets lost. I went to the
final game of the seven season. Glavin gave up seven
in the first inning Mets loss. I went to three
NLCS games this season, Game one at Dodger Stadium. In
Games three and four City Field, the Mets were outscored
twenty seven to two. They were zero for seventeen with
runners in scoring position. And I can't win.

Speaker 2 (20:16):
Oh wait, and don't forget the one you told me
earlier today when the Dodgers played the Mets earlier in
the regular season.

Speaker 3 (20:23):
I went to the game they you went to.

Speaker 2 (20:24):
They won. The Mets won three out of four games
in the series. The Mets have been this music follows
Rich much Davis. And by the way, they broke Garoppolo's
leg a few seasons ago.

Speaker 6 (20:37):
Oh yeah, nothing, you lose good day.

Speaker 1 (20:41):
And he knocked out the lights at the super Bowl.

Speaker 4 (20:42):
Remember that?

Speaker 1 (20:43):
Oh yeah, Rich tripped on the cord. The lights went
out of the super Bowl.

Speaker 2 (20:46):
Your bad luck when it comes to this, the rest
of your life is glorious.

Speaker 5 (20:51):
And by the way, it comes to this, not celerity
finally gets out of the inning.

Speaker 2 (20:54):
Yeah boy, Mets with the early three nothing leads you
gotta believe so damn you Rich? Hey, Rich, Before we
get to dB and the update and everything else, you
often say you're the first one to say that football
has the greatest parody than any other sport that we

(21:16):
root for that we watch in the NFL. What else
do the stats prove that?

Speaker 3 (21:22):
Well, yes, I'll tell you why. Because parody and best
team winning are are not mutually exclusive. I saw a
cool thing on Instagram, and of course everything that I
see on social media is true. I know you saw
the same thing. Parody just means the competition levels equal

(21:42):
the best teams. You know, there's a lot of competition,
like any team could win any given Sunday. As you see,
there's a lot of three and two. There's a lot
of four and two teams, three and three, teams, four
and two, two and four. There is something interesting about
baseball being that there's so many steps to get to
the World Series and win the World Series. That sixty

(22:05):
two percent, that's how many games the best team in
baseball will likely win each year, right, sixty two percent?

Speaker 1 (22:12):
Okay, the best best team.

Speaker 3 (22:14):
Yeah. The best hockey team wins roughly sixty five percent
of their games. In the NBA, best NBA team roughly
wins seventy three percent of their games, and the best
football team usually wins eighty to eighty five percent of
the Well.

Speaker 2 (22:30):
Then if the best football team is winning the highest
percentage of games, wouldn't that be the opposite of parody
when baseball is sixty something percent.

Speaker 3 (22:40):
Of the games. No, because parody meaning there's a lot
more competition in baseball. Can you know, you could argue,
you could argue in baseball that there's eight good teams
and twenty something that don't have a chance, you know, Or.

Speaker 2 (22:52):
I can argue that the best team in the NFL
wins eighty five percent of the games, but it could
be an average team baseball that if they're hot and
they have the momentum, they still have a shot, they
still have a chance.

Speaker 3 (23:06):
Here, here's the stat that backs up baseball being the toughest.

Speaker 2 (23:10):
Okay, so baseball is the toughest game to win, is
the point we're making.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
Based on the full show, Based on the path go Ahead.

Speaker 3 (23:18):
World Series, NBA Finals, World Series history, the best baseball
team wins the World Series forty six percent of the time,
the best NBA team wins the NBA Finals seventy five
percent of the time, and the best NFL team wins
eighty percent of the time.

Speaker 2 (23:40):
So to me, that explains or explains that the most
dominant team usually wins. That's the opposite of parody to me.

Speaker 3 (23:48):
No, no, no, no, because I think the spots for
the playoffs, there's a lot of teams and a lot
of fan bases at least excited like we're in it.
There's a lot of teams in the middle. Baseball, you
could are you that it's a top tier of some
teams and a lot of trash teams.

Speaker 2 (24:05):
Okay, So I think everybody's following the stats, yeah, right,
But I think we're all interpreting these stats differently. I
think Danny G's interpreting it the same way I am,
and Rich is still standing his ground on but the
NFL still has the most parody. I get the system
as to why, and their draft picks and things like
that as to why we think that, but I think
the stats are not showing that. If the best NFL

(24:28):
teams are still winning eighty five percent of the time,
then that shows you that, yeah, what's expected to happen
is happening.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
That's not fair and balanced.

Speaker 5 (24:36):
Really.

Speaker 2 (24:37):
In baseball, you're getting the opposite. You're getting teams with
less of a shot still with a bigger chance to win.

Speaker 5 (24:43):
Yeah, the stats were proving in that video that the
hottest teams in baseball usually come out Victoria's.

Speaker 2 (24:50):
Not necessarily the best quote unquote best teams in baseball.

Speaker 1 (24:54):
So to me, that's the opposite.

Speaker 2 (24:56):
To me, baseball, it's proving stat wise, the opposite of
what we're led to believe that football provides more parody,
but in baseball showing that if you have a decent
team with good momentum, you still have a greater chance
to win. But I think I think we are all
following the stats, and you can even repeat them. There's
just different ways to interpret what they need.

Speaker 3 (25:18):
Like you like in politics, you could take a poll
and both candidates can make it look like it favors
what they're saying.

Speaker 2 (25:24):
Yeah, it's actually really interesting because the way you're describing
it was the exact opposite way of how I interpreted it.
But I think we both understand dB. Do you make
any sense of what we're saying here?

Speaker 5 (25:36):
Not really, No, not at all.

Speaker 2 (25:39):
You know, I kind of figured that because it was
a little confusing, But let me let.

Speaker 3 (25:42):
Me simplify it. Yeah, go ahead, what it comes to,
let's leave out hockey. Baseball forty six percent of the time,
the best team, the best paper team meaning statistically record everything,
wins the World Series. NFL's eighty percent. NBA Finals just
below that in the seventh these But I think when
I say parody, I mean year to year, there's a

(26:05):
bunch of teams that could make the playoffs. In baseball,
I see it like the same handful teams make the postseason.
And yeah, the best team might not make the postseason,
but you're still almost predictable of who's going to be
in the postseason the NFL, every year the playoffs completely
turn over.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
Well, the point of this video, on the point of
this discussion, was that even if you were the best
team in baseball, your chances of winning it all were
still the hardest, harder than any other sport to win
the championship.

Speaker 3 (26:37):
Agree at the point, and you know it could be No,
I think you know, even though my Mets look good
right now, if the World Series is likely Dodgers Yankees,
I think that'll prove the opposite, which I think those
would probably be the two teams that deserve to be there.

Speaker 2 (26:53):
Your thoughts will get your feedback probably confuse the hell
out of you. But hey, that's fine. Let us know
what you think seven to seven ninety nine on Fox. Yeah,
I know, go back to cleaning the bathroom and let's
get an update from Dan Meyer.

Speaker 5 (27:10):
You know, just just.

Speaker 9 (27:11):
To clarify a little, because I joked earlier today on
the network on how thirty years from now we're gonna
have a best of thirteen series? But if you did,
you would think that the better team would probably play
out in that scenario. In Major League Baseball, when you
play one hundred and sixty two games in the regular season,
which is an enormous sample size, and then you use

(27:31):
a three or five game series or in this case
now a seven game series, it's still maybe as incomparable
to what you've used to determine who the best teams
were through the regular season, right, Is that what you're
kind of getting to it?

Speaker 3 (27:44):
So it's yeah, the best team over one hundred and
sixty two, it's it's harder for the best team to
show their dominance, where in other sports the best team
finds a way to get further in the playoffs.

Speaker 5 (27:57):
Okay, still confused. That's all right, Mets, No, that's all right.

Speaker 9 (28:01):
Hell good Mets, Dodgers right out top of the second
ending pede Lonza with that three run shot. You can
see it right now on Fox Sports One as the
Mets have that three nothing lead, but it's the Dodgers
up three to one of the best of seven series.

Speaker 3 (28:16):
You think I want to sing piano man when the
Mets I losing by ten? That was me at City
Field last night, Covin on Rich Fox Sports Radio on
a Friday show.

Speaker 1 (28:27):
Hey Rich, sing along, Bro?

Speaker 3 (28:30):
You think I'm gonna say, I get it when the
in stadium people have to keep the ruse up. But
in any sport, when your team's getting killed and the
in stadium people are still saying things like all right,
I guess Wich helmet the balls under, You're like, are
you serious?

Speaker 2 (28:44):
I think Alva has just hit a double to start
off the ending for the Mets. Right now, Matts Doyers
are on. I'm excited about the Yankees. Exciting baseball, exciting football.
It's gonna be an exciting weekend. It get It's more
exciting here on the show because it's time. Are you ready,
by the way, I was bored? Ready, Bro, It's time
for Rich's big TV game.

Speaker 3 (29:05):
Of the week.

Speaker 1 (29:07):
You should hear my fat up.

Speaker 2 (29:08):
I got an extra TV the game game that I
will have Rich's Big TV Game of the week.

Speaker 4 (29:15):
It's Rich's Big TV Game of the week.

Speaker 2 (29:20):
Oh yeah, dude, let me smack my belly.

Speaker 5 (29:25):
This is brought to you by Zenith. By the way,
day Will.

Speaker 3 (29:30):
There are so many great games that let's get it
out of the way. The late game. It's obvious what's
going to be on the big television later in the day.
The East Coast four o'clock games, West Coast one o'clock games.
And that's the Chiefs at my forty nine ers, a
rematch of the Super Bowl? Are the Niners back on
track to the Chiefs get dealt their first l I'm

(29:51):
hoping so you got the five and oh.

Speaker 2 (29:53):
Chiefs three something because you're the gurule here. How on
God's Green Earth? I'm meanase that again, are your forty
nine ers favorite in this game?

Speaker 3 (30:03):
Because I think on paper the Niners are as good
as people think they are, and the Chiefs are five
and zero on the road, and they're thinking maybe maybe
this is the slip up game, and the Niners always
play the Chiefs tough. They just lost.

Speaker 1 (30:14):
This is the reality game.

Speaker 3 (30:16):
Yeah wow, I mean listen, the Niners maybe need it
more but what does that mean? You're right, Cavino. That's
why earlier in the week I told you my Solar
power parlay. I like the I like the Chiefs and
a teaser bit if you remember, I liked them getting eight.
But remember Chiefs Niners. That's the late game you gotta
be honed in on. Now the early games. Dude, I'm

(30:38):
gonna leave I'm gonna leave this up to you, and
then I'll make my final decision. I know this is
Rich Davis's big TV game of the week, but I
thought about Eagles Giants divisional battle. No, that gets one
of the four split screens. I thought about Seahawks at Falcons. Nah,
that's that's gonna be on the split screen too. Cavino. Yes,
two games, Ah, I don't know which one. I think

(31:01):
I know which one. Go truck Exon's at Packers.

Speaker 1 (31:05):
Oh yeah right yeah.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
C J.

Speaker 3 (31:08):
Stroud Jordan love two young stud quarterbacks the games in
Green Bay. Mmm. But as much as I want to
throw that on the big TV, I might have to
because my wife's a Packers fan. Lions at Vikings. Is
this the week where the Vikings show the world? No, no, no,

(31:28):
we're legit or do the Lions at four and one
go in to Minnesota and say, Yo, it's still our division.
Sam Darnold, slow down, all.

Speaker 2 (31:39):
Right, two amazing games. But if it was my TV,
it's Lions Vikings. You heard Colin Cowhard saying the Lions
are everything the Cowboys wanted to be and they're just
playing so dominant and up against the Vikings right now.
That's exciting for me. But I do see the excitement
and two young quarterbacks as well. So it's your choice,

(32:00):
my TV Lions Vikings.

Speaker 3 (32:03):
You know what, you know, I have the multiple TVs.
You might just forget the split screen and have two TVs,
one with Texas Packers, one with Lions Vikings, and then
in the afternoon.

Speaker 1 (32:13):
What this segment is called, is that against the rules.

Speaker 3 (32:16):
It might be. It might be, but you.

Speaker 5 (32:17):
Know what, I will just say, split screen TV games, games,
games of the week.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
Yeah, that's true. You got to pick one, pick one.
That's the whole point.

Speaker 3 (32:25):
I mean, guys, I asked if you were ready. I am,
I'm gonna go Lions Vikings only because you know, ma'am,
I'm I'm loving the Sam Darnold story. But the Lions
are man, they like you even said they're everything the
Cowboys wish they were.

Speaker 2 (32:42):
They're ta like, they're clever. You know, they got a
quarterback that's delivering. They're doing all these little things that
are impressive that we want to see.

Speaker 3 (32:52):
And because of their history of not being so great,
I do think America is behind the Lions. So they're
almost even like America's teams.

Speaker 1 (32:58):
And they're fun. Yeah, they're fun to watch.

Speaker 3 (33:00):
I think Lions and Vikings is your early game of
the week, but you got to keep an eye on
that Texans Packers. But since the segment is what is
my big game, I guess I have to pick so
Lions Vikings and then of course late games Chiefs Niners.
Nothing really later in the day that makes much sense
other than that, but a reminder, Sunday night football is

(33:21):
going to deliver as well, because you got Aaron Rodgers
with DeVante Adams going to play in Pittsburgh where they
don't know what the hell they're doing with fields, and
Russell Wilson and they both might get snaps and that's
gonna be a lot of fun too. So Cavino, all
time slots on Sunday have something worthy of the big TV.

Speaker 2 (33:41):
Oh wow, what a breakdown. That's great analysis, Tony, thank you,
thank you, problem buddy, all right, Rich, great analysis, says always.

Speaker 3 (33:52):
Besides major League Baseball, last night and some Monday night football,
we didn't even I'm sorry, Thursday night football. We didn't
even mention that Bo Nicks, you know, had a pretty
dec game. The Broncos are four and three in the
States Conte game.

Speaker 2 (34:04):
Yeah, thirty three ten the Saints what they scored at
the end, it was like thirty three to three the
whole game, thirty three ten. Props to the Broncos turning
it around four and three. Now it just takes a
back seat. It's just, you know what, our discussion I
think is reflective of how a lot of people are
feeling man postseason baseball. You know, I saw who was
it McAfee talking to Jeff Passing. McAfee was trying to say,

(34:28):
you're trying to make the point that, hey, Jeff, is
it me or has the postseason this year been insane?

Speaker 1 (34:37):
Is it always like this?

Speaker 2 (34:39):
This was a perfect opportunity for Jeff Passing to be
a spokesman for baseball and say, you know what, no,
it's getting better and more exciting than ever, which is
why people need to be tuning in, because the stars
are delivering and they're the biggest names in baseball are
stepping up. But we haven't seen it in years. And
he says, no, it's always like that, and I'm.

Speaker 3 (34:57):
Like, no, it's not.

Speaker 4 (34:59):
Right.

Speaker 2 (35:00):
Look, baseball is exciting, especially postseason baseball, but it's been
extra exciting, so by default, you're seeing the Broncos game
take a bit of a back seat. However, that changes
this weekend. We have some exciting matchups, as you already
heard in Rich's big TV Game of the Week.

Speaker 3 (35:16):
But Rich, hey, by the way, yeah, when I said
the Saints were the worst team in the league and
they started two and zero, yeah, and I said, I said,
hold up, wait a minute, what are they now?

Speaker 1 (35:28):
Two and five? Yep? Oh yeah, yeah, it goes to
show you.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
Danny g and I were talking about that before the
show started. He was look, yeah, and everyone was seeing
the Ravens were done. He's like, it's so early, come on,
and now look, you know, reality's starting to set in.
But Tom Brady a lot of people speculating about TB
twelve and his restrictions and what he should be doing.

Speaker 1 (35:55):
Is Tom Brady's life. It's his life and he'll do it.

Speaker 4 (35:59):
He will.

Speaker 3 (36:00):
Oh, I thought you were gonna say it's his life
now own.

Speaker 2 (36:05):
I think people need a minor own business on Tom Brady.
You know, is he capable of being a partial owner
and a broadcaster.

Speaker 5 (36:13):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (36:14):
I think he is. He's Tom Brady, You're not. Everyone
thinks that, you know, they want to project what they're
capable of. This dude has already proven to be so
committed to whatever it is that he's doing. I think
he could do whatever he wants now, Tom Brady, have
we got over the restrictions?

Speaker 3 (36:33):
We did it back in the day. But now that
the deal with the Raiders is done and he's.

Speaker 1 (36:40):
In his commitment to excellence has been written.

Speaker 3 (36:43):
QUI go over a couple of these things and you
tell me how you feel he navigates it.

Speaker 1 (36:48):
The TV twelve way. That sound but let's hear it now.

Speaker 3 (36:53):
Number one, Tom Brady cannot criticize teams or referees.

Speaker 2 (37:00):
Conflict of interest. Right, I'll tell you how. Because he's
a color commentator. He's there for his professional analysis. That's
how it's the play by play guy's job to do
those things. There's going to be a balance.

Speaker 3 (37:16):
Danny g you were saying that on social media. A
lot of Raiders fan pages that are actually very excited
to have Tom Brady. We're saying that exact thing.

Speaker 5 (37:23):
Yeah, there was a lot of argument in you. I
think I forwarded the clip to you guys where Tom
Brady got that great greeting at the Raider facility.

Speaker 1 (37:33):
Oh, by the way, that was It gave me chills
atle bit.

Speaker 5 (37:36):
It was pretty cool.

Speaker 2 (37:37):
It was really cool. If you didn't see it. Tom
Brady walks in with Mark Davis and the whole like Raiders,
what would you even call that?

Speaker 1 (37:45):
Like all their staff, they're staffed.

Speaker 2 (37:47):
Are there welcoming him, Like there he is, man, our
savior and he looks up in waves and.

Speaker 1 (37:52):
Is freaking Tom Brady.

Speaker 5 (37:53):
It's kind of cool. Mostly their office staff, and it
was a it was a cool scene. And then the
first comment under take this guy's broadcasting job away conflict
of interest, And the guy who started arguing with him said, hey,
you know what, buddy chill, because he's a color analyst's
that job normally goes to former players that are just

(38:15):
there to give their real life experience. So that was
kind of the argument I was reading.

Speaker 2 (38:20):
But I think based on that right, it's not like
he can't participate in criticism, it's just not his focus.
That's where his partner steps up and delivers those thoughts.

Speaker 1 (38:31):
He doesn't need to.

Speaker 3 (38:32):
It will be something tom Brady needs to think about,
like when he's quick to want to be like man
ref that really doesn't look like holding to me. He
can't say that. Hey man, A.

Speaker 2 (38:44):
Lot of players can't say what they really want to say.
It's like what Rob Parker's been written about all week,
the pushback. These people look compromised, diaky b diaky, Barber's
in bed with the giants.

Speaker 1 (38:57):
He can't say what he wants to say. He can,
we can not.

Speaker 2 (39:02):
Everybody can anyway, So that's my counter argument to that.
You think everybody just says what's on their mind, but
I don't think so.

Speaker 3 (39:09):
I did see the emotional tom Brady video going into
the facility. I also did see some great photoshops of
Tom Brady with Mark Davis hair.

Speaker 2 (39:20):
Those were great. You know, Mark Davis should get tom
Brady here. It's backwards because he's there to change some
things around. But you know what I did notice in
that really cool video of Tom Brady stepping into the
facility and everyone giving him round of applause, Mark Davis
looking at him like he was in love. Did you
notice that, Danny g like smiling.

Speaker 5 (39:39):
What I tell you the other day, he's had a
crush on Tom Brady.

Speaker 2 (39:43):
Yeah, he was crushing on him, and that shows me
that even though he's the guy, I feel like he's
willing to give up a lot of a lot of liberty,
a lot of choices and decision making to Tom Brady
because he admires them so much, despite of being in
only a five to ten percent owner whatever he is technically.

Speaker 3 (40:00):
I did see the memes also that said you got
to find yourself, guys, a lady that looks at you
the way Mark Davis looks at Tom bro I didn't even.

Speaker 2 (40:06):
See those, but I noticed it. Yeah, it was noticeable.
Now he desires him.

Speaker 3 (40:11):
Next otherless, he can't criticize refs or teams. I mean again,
these are things that he'll have to just take note
of like a d I can't be like man the
Saints secondary stinks. He has to pull back. He can't
enter other team facilities where you could argue well as
the color commentator. Maybe he doesn't need to can't attend practices.

(40:34):
Is that a problem?

Speaker 1 (40:36):
Can't attend practices?

Speaker 2 (40:37):
Yeah, so that means he would be not he would
not be able to get any sort of original scoop.
But that doesn't mean he can't get a scoop.

Speaker 3 (40:46):
I think the only of all these little rules, Danny
Cavino backed me up, the only one that might be
a little bit tricky is no pregame production meeting with
players where you know, a lot of times you'll hear
like Chris Collinsworth say like, yeah, man, this week I
caught up at bo Nix and he told me.

Speaker 2 (41:02):
This, Okay, all right, you know what, and that is
a conflict of interest. You could see how that would
work against him in the booth. But you're gonna tell
me that this dude should step down from a ten year,
three hundred and seventy five million dollar deal because Biff
and Idaho says, so no way, you know, no way.
And plus Danny g I gotta give him credit on this.

(41:23):
Tom Brady wants to be more of a presence in
the organization. He wants to own a team, so he
needs that money.

Speaker 1 (41:32):
And you think he.

Speaker 2 (41:32):
Cares what anyone thinks about him, stepping down as a broadcascer.
That's a hell of a deal. He's gonna do it
regardless and make it happen.

Speaker 5 (41:39):
Rich always tells us, never give up a gig. Yeah,
no matter how many different side gigs or you know,
gigs you might have, don't ever just freely walk away
from one.

Speaker 2 (41:49):
And you think he's gonna give up a ten thirty
seventy million dollars gig.

Speaker 5 (41:53):
His end game is the same as Lebron James be
a majority owner of a franchise.

Speaker 1 (41:57):
He needs it.

Speaker 3 (41:58):
Danny, that point is so true because I'm a full
time employee of Fox Sports, and iHeart I got a gig,
my full time gig at Serious XM. We do our
Patreon podcast. You know, Cavino does stuff in the History
Channel like no one's giving up gigs.

Speaker 2 (42:11):
And he's a tonely fans model. He he poses his
feet for online freaks.

Speaker 3 (42:19):
Can I do that?

Speaker 1 (42:20):
I thought you did.

Speaker 3 (42:21):
I got good looking feet for it, dude. All right,

you went a swing. Wow, dude, that's pretty impressive.

Speaker 5 (50:31):
Press AJ, congrats. We're going to be mailing a shiny
new sea in our SWIGGI your way in Arkansas. Hey Man,
love the show. I appreciate Joe.

Speaker 3 (50:47):
The official stats are in Kavino. What are the official stats?
When I attend the Mets game in the playoffs? The
Dodgers are leading twenty seven to two. When I am
not there, the Mets are winning fifteen to five.

Speaker 2 (51:09):
You know, a lot of your friends hit me up
mad at you for jinxing the Mets. They're like, why
is he going? We told him not to go. Every
time he goes, they suck. So your friends were hitting
me up, like mad about you because you're mush Davis.

Speaker 5 (51:24):
Yeah, you love that show. Get locked mad about.

Speaker 3 (51:27):
You, big Paul Riser fan. I was, Sam.

Speaker 11 (51:30):
I'm not an early Riser or late Riser. I'm a
pol Riser. Yeah okay, but they are. They're mad about rich.

Speaker 3 (51:37):
Man.

Speaker 1 (51:40):
I appreciate the effort. Sam.

Speaker 2 (51:43):
Mad about rich for just ruining the vibe of the Mets,
because look, he's not at the game today and the
Mets are dominating, even though somebody just went yard for
the Dodgers who hit home runs.

Speaker 1 (51:54):
Oh wow, hotheads, So it's eight to two Mets.

Speaker 2 (51:59):
Card knock for a rich So no, I get it.
You want to do both, and that's fair, right. You
don't ever want to be put in a box. I
don't like that. I'm not the man in the box
speaking of Alice and Chains. I don't want to be
put in a box Tom Brady. But what he's doing,
bro is next level. It's not high school play.

Speaker 3 (52:19):
And I don't know, dude, I was in any the
Musical and I pitched varsity baseball. It might be the
same thing.

Speaker 1 (52:24):
I mean, it's a it's an understandable comparison. But we're
saying these.

Speaker 2 (52:30):
Are take high level, high stress, high demand, next level
opportunities where you know, people listening to the broadcast don't
want to be compromised, and people rooting for the Raiders
don't want to be like, hey man, we want all
your focus.

Speaker 1 (52:46):
They don't want to feel compromised either.

Speaker 3 (52:48):
Hey buddy, Yeah, does anyone tell Ryan Seacrest, Dude, do
American Idol your radio show or well Fortune? Does anyone
tell Steve Harvey, hey, dude, it's family feud or your
other hosting? Does anyone tell coach Doug Gottlieb you're going
to be a coach or a radio host. Some people
have the capacity, but you know what to do multiple things.

Speaker 2 (53:07):
I would never question any of those guys because I
admire all of them. You know, I'll throw Mario Lopez
in there too, because he takes all my gigs. Mario Lopez, Right,
all these guys have multiple gigs, multiple jobs. Would imagine
how great they would be if they had one sole focus.
Think about that.

Speaker 3 (53:23):
I agree with a Lopez. They just announced that he's
going to be hosting I believe Miss Universe. And aren't
you hosting like a hot Sauce contest in downtown La?

Speaker 1 (53:29):
Yeah? Yeah, same thing, just as cool. But think about that.

Speaker 2 (53:37):
You know, we have several jobs, rich, you know what
I think to myself, Yeah, I could do it, but man,
I'd be a hell of a lot better and a
lot more energized if I only had to focus on one.
There's that quote that people always cut in half and
never finish, it's the jack of all trades, master of none,
but the second half is though oftentimes better than a
master of one. So sometimes being a jack of all

(53:58):
trades is better than being a master.

Speaker 1 (54:00):
Okay, DP, you got thoughts on that.

Speaker 9 (54:03):
Yeah, before we get to my updates, I just wanted
to say, it's good business for Tom Brady to be
in the NFL. And I have more of a problem
with all of these restrictions going on because when you're
an analyst, if you're Troy Aikman or whoever, fans are
already gonna think you're biased anyway, right, And for the
NFL to be so paranoid that there could be inside
information and stuff moving on, it's just I just think

(54:27):
it's good business for the NFL to have Tom Brady
and as many different places as you can. So all
of these stupid rules shouldn't be put on Kevin Burkhard's
shoulders because he you know, Tom Brady can't say certain things.
That's not what the play by play guy's job is.

Speaker 1 (54:41):
Yeah, that's funny.

Speaker 5 (54:42):
I'm usually ease up on some of these.

Speaker 2 (54:44):
You think that Tom Brady'll have codes like for Burkechart
to be like, hey, get on the ref because I
can't give the touches his nose. That means Burke Cahart
has to lean in on the refs. Tom Brady's writing
notes to Burkecart It's like, how involved is he really
going to be here? Is he really just an investor?
I think he's been way involved in the goal.

Speaker 3 (55:02):
Spot the competitive sign of Tom's going to want to
be part of a winning environment. And by the way,
I was gonna say, have you seen our good pal,
Kevin Burkhardt. He's like the silver fox. Now the stress
of Tom Brady has already getting the.

Speaker 1 (55:13):
Silver fox and the silver and black fox. Man there
it is, Yeah.

Speaker 3 (55:17):
Look at that. So hey, tom Brady, it will be
interesting because there I wonder if there'll be a fine
at any point, Like Tom Brady gets fine because he
he criticized the Falcon secondary or something.

Speaker 1 (55:29):
You know what is the fine? Because maybe it's worth
it the raid?

Speaker 3 (55:32):
Right, Yeah, remember like when Michael Jordan was told every
time you wear those Jordan's we find you, you know whatever,
and the and the bulls said okay.

Speaker 2 (55:40):
Yeah exactly. Nike said, okay, maybe it's worth it. So
it is an interesting story, and you know, we could
actually wrap it with Dan Byer's answer and sentiment of
Tom Brady's great for the NFL, so he'll be great
for the Raiders. He's great for the league. He's winning,

(56:01):
a winning, a proven winner. Let's just leave it at that.
So I'm happy for the guy. Oh who's gonna be
the pro of the week. It might have been the
call of the week, Iowa, Sam, you played it earlier.
I think it has to go to Big Christmas Noel
simply for what he did yesterday.

Speaker 4 (56:23):
Hammer John kenc no Well.

Speaker 1 (56:34):
John.

Speaker 2 (56:36):
Noel, Big Christmas please is the Express pro pro of
the week. And it pains me to say that as
a Yankees fan, I acknowledge again that was a major
gut punch, but I can completely acknowledge that was a
classic and that was a big, big moment for him.
Congrats again to Big Nons for being our express pros

(56:56):
pro of the week.

Speaker 1 (56:57):
And that was time for Winnie for the weekend.

Speaker 4 (57:01):
You're winning bets for talking points. If you get stuck socializing,
you ever done anything dangerous? You ever dance with the
devil in the pale line? Friday brings us weekend hob
nob All.

Speaker 1 (57:14):
Right, I'll kick it off.

Speaker 2 (57:17):
Now, there's so much college football, NFL postseason baseball, but
try to remember there's more to life than that. You
got UFC Fight Night, Manyana, Anthony Hernandez and Perera. Michael
Perera are the main event in the middleweight division, and
the banthamweight you got Rob font and Kyler Phillips and

(57:39):
Charles Johnson is also fighting for the flyweights.

Speaker 1 (57:44):
That's UFC Fight Night.

Speaker 2 (57:46):
But then, I'm not a Terrifier kind of guy, even
though it's dominating the box office.

Speaker 1 (57:51):
Terrifier three art the.

Speaker 2 (57:53):
Clown, I am I think able to watch Smile and
Smile too. Maybe I'll much Smile the original Smile because
I never saw it, but Smile two is now available
on Netflix if you're trying to get.

Speaker 1 (58:05):
Into the mood for the spooky season.

Speaker 2 (58:08):
And then, of course, Rich if the Yankees win tonight,
they're up three to one, so I'll be watching tomorrow
to see if they could seal the deal Yanks in Cleveland.

Speaker 1 (58:20):
Let's go.

Speaker 3 (58:22):
Well, I mean you said Smile too. I did watch
the first two Terrifiers and those are gruesome.

Speaker 2 (58:29):
So we're saying people are saying that the third one
that's out in theaters now is putting terrifier or aren't
the clown up there with the Halloween icons such as
Krueger not Chad Kruger, Freddy Krueger, Michael Myers and Jasoner.

Speaker 3 (58:44):
Yeah, dude, it's it's really creepy and disturbing. But smile too?
Is that? Like I said, I might do what you did.
I'm not trying to copy your answer, but I may
go watch the original Smile Smile one and see if
it's worth watching.

Speaker 1 (58:56):
The second I heard it was good man.

Speaker 3 (58:57):
Yeah, there's a creepy movie, Woman of the Hour with
Anna Kendrick about a seventies dating game show where it
was like a serial killer true story. Yeah, so I'm
gonna check that out on Netflix. And on Sunday night,
the Mets. I dare I say this because the Mets
just scored a few more in the fourth. It's ten

(59:18):
to two.

Speaker 4 (59:19):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (59:20):
I think I could say Game six Sunday night at
Dodger Stadium. I will not be in attendance because I
refuse to be the mush because it's just it's absurd.
Now I can't go back to watch a Mets game,
but that could be a game.

Speaker 5 (59:36):
I'm gonna send a Limo for you.

Speaker 3 (59:38):
That could be off the Ages Vegas if the Mets
go there and pitch manaia who is their best pitcher
right now? What if the force a game seven? The
possibilities are there. So we shall see Sunday night at
Dodger Stadium. And uh, you know, if you want to
get in the NBA mood and you and you're a
little baseballed out, I don't know how you could be
Starting five on Netflix. I have it downloaded from my
