(00:25):
the big story two nights ago is that is he
a baby?

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Me?

Speaker 1 (00:29):
Is here? Was he wrongfully accused? He went from crying
to the refs on Tuesday night to actually crying in
Dallas Wednesday night. And there's two ways to look at
that in itself, the Mavericks welcome him, but do they
do that for him or do they do that to

(00:49):
show where a world class organization and we do things
right here. That's a debate in itself, right, I know
what you're saying. Is it for show or is it genuine?
Is it anyone? Because they essentially did dump him, but
they welcomed them back. Did they do it for him
or the fans? I don't know. It's like dumping a
girl and then being like, hey, everyone, look at this.
She is the hottest, greatest girl. Didn't he just dump

(01:11):
her when he's crying? Does that mean he really wants
to be a maverick still or is he just caught
up in his emotions. It's a special moment. He's dealing
with a lot. He's an emotional guy. There's that. And
for me personally, if that were me, maybe I'm too prideful.

(01:31):
Maybe Vachtos only have ninety six tiers. I don't know
what it is, but if they had a camera up
my nose in that moment of an emotional montage, I
would have kicked that guy right in the sternum and
would have been like, dude, get out of my face
with that camera. Justin Bieber, however, I saw a lot
of people saying, you gotta like really applaud Luca. He

(01:52):
knew that he was being filmed and he let his
emotions fly. He showed a human side of him and
a lot of players in that moment Rich they request
to see the video first so that when this is
really airing, they just like turn away and put the
head down or whatever, because it's an emotional moment. There's
a lot of ways to look at this either way.
The majority of people are saying and we're saying, and

(02:15):
I know you hate this, and that's why I'm posing
this question to Rich. Last night he became a Laker.
Now you hate it when they say it about the
Yankees because I heard Max Freed earned his pinstripes this week.
I don't know if you heard that. Yeah, Max Freed
earned his pinstripes this week. He became a Yankee. Rich Rich,
just I rolling statement in sports.

Speaker 3 (02:33):
Don't get too upset, Rich, because the flip side of
that has been is he truly a Dallas maverick? Does
he really still want to be in the city of Dallas.
So we're hearing a lot of that today as well.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
Is that why he was crying? You know, there's so
many ways to look at last night. I look at
it like, wow, that was really special because he turned
that an emotional moment and he admitted I didn't think
I could play after seeing that into a forty five
point Bam in your face. Take that. Thanks for welcoming
me back State forty five six and eight last night,

(03:07):
six rebounds, eight assists. He put on a show and
as JJ Reddick said, he was a little disappointed because
he expected fifty points and he laughed about it, but
he could have put up fifty points last night. Major
props to him playing big in a really emotional moment
last night. But again we saw a human side to Luca.
I don't know. I think they should arrested him for

(03:28):
the playoffs.

Speaker 3 (03:28):
Yeah right, well, and what a way to clinch a
playoff spot. You don't have to worry about the play
in and now that you've got a couple of teams
creeping up right behind you. The Warriors had a big
loss last night, with none other than Harrison Barnes hitting
that game winning shot.

Speaker 1 (03:42):
And he, you know, after the game, he said, you know,
you move forward now? Now it's time. Now it's time
to move forward, meaning that chapter's closed, And that sort
of answers the other question that we were speculating, like
if he doesn't sign a long term deal with the Lakers,
will he ever go back to Dalla? Would they ever
bring him back? I think if he saying we move

(04:06):
forward now, you don't look backwards.

Speaker 3 (04:08):
Well it would have to be with a new general
manager for sure.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
That's very possible based on the chess last.

Speaker 3 (04:14):
Night, Oh lord, and probably a new owner. I would
imagine that he's not going to go back unless it's
a clean house. And here's something you started by saying.
Was this something Dallas did because they're a nice organization.
ESPN's Tim McMahon reporting that Dallas tried to monetize Luca's
first time back by hitting up the major sponsors that

(04:37):
Luca and his team are in bed with. The MAVs
had lined up lucrative sponsorship deals for Wednesday's game with
multiple companies that Luca endorses, but those deals fell apart
after Luca's camp declined to give it its blessing. The
person that posted this said, Dallas is shameless.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
So is that just disingenuous or is that just good business?
There's so many different element, so many laters to this,
because I was just thinking, there's thirty plus teams in
the NBA. If he were to not be a Laker
in a couple of years from now, whenever the case
may be, why go back to Dallas? Does he love
it there that much? You're the first person to say,
the more you see the world, you could live a

(05:18):
lot of places. I know why though, unfinished business. That's
why I hated the fact that Sodo moved on because
I feel like he left the Yankees in a position
of unfinished business. Dude, you made it to the World
Series with this team and you're just gonna dip. He
wanted to deliver a championship to Dallas. That's all he
knew when it came to America. You know, Rich, I

(05:39):
have a close relationship to where you live in Woodland
Hills right now. You know why because for years when
I moved out to LA from New Jersey, Woodland Hills
is all I knew. So he knows Dallas. I know
what I'm saying, farmer, and that was home. That was
home for him. I mean that you could argue that
Lebron went back to Cleveland at one point to finish

(05:59):
unfinished business. That Danny g made another really interesting observation
based on the thought of last night he became a Laker.
Now you can roll your eyes at that. You could say, yeah,
that's kind of true. Man. He put the knife in
his former team's back, and he scored forty five points,
leading his new team to victory, a major win in

(06:20):
front of his fans. But it might be the first
time that you saw another team leading the cheers in
an away stadium, and that was that was weird.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (06:35):
His first shote cheered yeah.

Speaker 3 (06:37):
When Lebron started putting his arms up. And then you
saw Austin Reeves and the entire Laker team on the
side there of the court by the bench, all raising
the roof with the crowd, and they were like one
with the Dallas fans and that was so strange.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
Well fans, but one one for all for Luca. And
that was them supporting Luca last night. So officially a Laker,
I feelk that gives him the juice moving forward, like
this is it now?

Speaker 4 (07:06):
You know you're mentioning like Luca, this was his goodbye.
I think the fans knew that as well, not just
for Luca, but the fans were also like, this is
our final hoorah with you.

Speaker 1 (07:18):
You know what wants has another great point and your
phone calls and your feedback, your thoughts of last night.
It was a big moment eight seven, seven ninety nine
on Fox. You know what it's like if you want
to tie it to a relationship, we always say, and
he had a long relationship with the Dallas Mavericks saw
he knew it's the closing of the chapter, meaning the
you know, in relationships, when you have you need to

(07:39):
close the book. You need a closure. You just need closure.
That was the close there all sides. Yeah, that was
the closure he needed. Now he just moves forward. I'm
expecting an uber dominant Luca moving forward. I mean three
observations I've made. Number One, you always need that first
time a player comes back for the last as you

(07:59):
would say, I love how months he said hoo rah,
not hurrah? Who left? Who rah? Who? I always say hoorrah.
So it's not gonna be like the militarily, it's not
gonna be like that moving forward. So we could all
acknowledge that it's a one time thing. It's the closure
we all get, and not evenly. It's you gotta ask yourself,

(08:20):
what is the closure you get in a relationship?

Speaker 3 (08:22):
Right?

Speaker 1 (08:23):
I always feel like I can never truly get relationship
closure until you see that person and you know they're
sleep with someone else. Yeah, sometimes it's the closure like
you need like this, have you them yet? Did you?
Did you? Did you him? Then you know it's over. Yeah.
But if you break up with someone you're like, I

(08:43):
don't know, it's just not working. When you find out
like oh, she's banging John from work, that you might
not really close the door. I think seeing Luke close
the door, but then when she marries John from work,
then it closed the door again. And then when she
has kids with John from work, it's really it's slammed.
That's double set. But I think last night the equivalent

(09:06):
of you know, seeing a girl you weren't sure is
it really over? When you see her canoodling on her
Instagram story and you know she's sleeping with the dude.
That's you know, the Lakers going to Dallas and those
fans seeing him in Lakers colors, putting up forty five
and they still cheered for him, and it's you.

Speaker 3 (09:25):
Know, but but it's Nico's fault. So that's like the
boss's fault that John is now with the girl.

Speaker 1 (09:31):
It's it's listen. I think it's a beautiful moment for Luca.
I'd last night. I really had so many different analogies,
but this is when I'm making up based on some
of the ones I saw. He went into someone else's
backyard last night, right, and he took over their grill.
He's like, good, this is no this is my grill.
He took a he manned the grill last night, someone
else's house and scored forty five points. You see his grill.

(09:54):
Nobody was stopping him from taking.

Speaker 5 (09:56):
The ex husband comes back to his old house he
got kicked out of that, he got he can't cone anymore,
and he's like, oh, I remember this grill.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
You know what that's like ready used to be my grill.
That's still my I'm divorced, right, that's like me going
back to my old house. Strut you should you should
do this, just strutting in like like like I'm Vince
McMahon with strut like, I'm like, i am, who am
I Econna McGregor, No, whoa, I'm naming all people that
Rick Flair. I'm strutting in here like I'm Rick Flair

(10:24):
and I am like, yeah, this used to be my house.
This used to be my grill. And I pushed the
new guy aside and I take over my grill again.
He essentially did last that last night in Dallas.

Speaker 4 (10:34):
But he didn't though, because nobody wanted this, Like they
were like, please.

Speaker 1 (10:38):
Come cook for the last time.

Speaker 3 (10:41):
Take the growl.

Speaker 1 (10:42):
Do you want us to clean it before you get here? Yeah,
that's true, that's true. That that's from the fans side
of things.

Speaker 2 (10:47):
Though.

Speaker 1 (10:48):
That's what makes it so messy because but Manti, if
I really did that in my you know, fantasy, yes,
people would be cheering me on too, Like yes, people
would have people would welcome you in to take the grill,
but my friends would Yeah, man, your grill, that was
your grill anyway, That's exactly right, exactly, that's what really

(11:09):
happened last night in the NBA. And again he's officially
a Laker. And now I think he's gonna play with
a different fire. It's with that closure, Rich, it's special
one time and one time only. Yeah, moving forward, he
goes back there has not a big deal at all.
It's that one time. I'll give you another great analogy
we might as well keep. Let's try to beat Colin

(11:29):
Calherd with the number of analogies we did. I got
another one. You can't beat him in his own game. Stars.
Here's stars. Here's another analogy. It doesn't need to be
a relationship or a sport. It could be your workplace.
Who worked in the studio before we were here. Give
me like an old show that was respected, Like at
one point, wasn't Jim Rome here? I don't know, like

(11:50):
some old old guy go. Some of them were dead,
like rush right, he worked here, Cam, Yeah, legend. Steve
Harvey is someone that's alive.

Speaker 4 (11:58):
Steve Harvey.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
Steve Harvey didn't.

Speaker 3 (12:01):
How about the J Moore show? It was in this
time slot.

Speaker 1 (12:04):
Yeah, that's like if they came back here to visit,
the people that were here a long time would be like,
oh my god, Jay's here, he broughte the red carpet,
someone or her food, remember the good old days? And
in the bathroom so long, why is there J moore
t shirts draped over the seats and we don't have
Covino and rich T shirts. It would be one day
where everyone that was new would feel a little inadequate

(12:26):
because everyone's like, oh my god, Jay z here, he's
got his two dogs with him, and and then then
then he went to the bathroom again. And then the
second time he comes back, everybody like he's visiting again. Huh.
It's like if you visited your old high school that
first time when all the teachers saw you, like, oh

(12:46):
my god, how's college? Yeah, and then if you if
you came back again, they'd be like.

Speaker 5 (12:51):
A good bye is always awkward, you know, like oh okay.

Speaker 3 (12:56):
It's like when Coveno embraced Shaye and had tears crocodile
tears and gave him a goodbye, and then Shaye was
back the next week and was like, wait, I say
goodbye to you.

Speaker 1 (13:08):
One of our coworkers, and we already made a deal.
When he actually really leaves, I don't have to say
goodbye again. Oh that's dead. One of our favorite dudes here. Shay,
one of the young editors, was like, guys, I'm leaving.
I hate to go, but I'm gone. We all did
give him like a and then he's like, oh, by
the way, I'm actually staying. I did feel like I

(13:28):
gave too much of a nice Cabaley, Wait a second,
I want that goodbye back. So a lot of emotions
last night. Very cool to see, very cool to see
the Lakers embracing Luca in this way. You know he's
on their team now. They got a brotherhood on Siblings Day,
not to three on the spot. Can you think of
the Lakers? Can you think of another nice homecoming, like oh,

(13:50):
that legend went back home? Like I'm not thinking a
bit off the top of my head, But did Griffy
as a red ever go back to Seattle? Were there
moments where yo, that was that guy, that was that
team's guy, Like I can imagine maybe like Piazza's first
time back as far as homecoming at the Dodgers, Like
we're talking lifer that moves on, like right, I don't think.

(14:10):
I don't think Mmitt Smith ever played in Dallas again,
did he? I don't know.

Speaker 3 (14:14):
Well, when Michael Jordan was a wizard and he went
to Chicago for the first time, was that was emotional?

Speaker 4 (14:20):
Yeah, that was a good one, because it does have
to be a team that's been with the team forever.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
And goes bit's reserved for a star. Yeah, that's been
there a long time and they go back. Let me
bring this up too, Like I said, I would not
want a camera in my face when in an emotional
moment like that. But he let you in. He let
you see that he's human and he's emotional, and that
it meant a lot ware more composed than Bieber. Like
I said before, did you see Justin Bieber flipped out

(14:46):
on the paparazzi? Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3 (14:48):
Let me ask you guys this question because it was
a weird forty eight hours yesterday you were laughing Covino
because We had heard it on the Dan Patrick Show,
that Ben Mallor show Your boy Matt Dog Russo was
screaming about it. You can't even root for him, he
whined so much. I had heard several guys say you
can't root for him, and then last night I'm watching
the highlights and I'm hearing this is why he's so

(15:10):
easy to root for, and I was like, huh. One
day I'm hearing you can't root for this guy. That's why.
The next day I'm hearing guys say that's why he's
so easy.

Speaker 1 (15:18):
That's the weakest part of sports talk or the sports media.
It's the double talking that you hear to fit the
narrative every day. It'd be so much more genuine if
you just owned it, like man, he just proved me wrong,
plain and simple. Lucas stepped up last night and you're right.
The day before he's impossible to root for. I can't
stand him. Now he's a hero again. It's the fickle,

(15:38):
the fickleness is that a word? Fickleness? The fit the facality.
I'm a sports fan and talking head on TV. Even
though we love a man Dog Russo. He wasn't the
only guy that was saying that. The other thing I
was gonna say is that I throw no shade, and
I make no judgment on Luca forgetting emotional. He's a
fiery guy, which means, on the flip side, he's bound

(15:59):
to shed some tears during a montage. But I could
be at a wedding of people I barely know, wedding
of people I barely know, you throwing a good montage
with sentimental music. Oh yeah, I might shed one of
my ninety six votfil tears. Like I'm like, I don't
even know these people, and I'm getting an emotional watch. Yes, dude,
I'm a slide show or a montage. It's just an

(16:20):
emotional that you cried during one shining moment. I'm a disaster.
I cried ever since I had kids. I cried anything.
I cried at tannor from level on the spectrum. When
he got to meet Jack Black, Yeah, so I'm so imagined.
So imagine how he fell with all these emotions, watching
his highlights play and all his fans are cheering them.
He'sa yeah, give me a break, and his unfinished business

(16:41):
and his memories there it all hit him at once.
There is I passed no judgment on him being emotional
net moment. Like I said, I watch videos of people
I don't know and I want to cry. I was, Sam,
you have some fan reaction to Luca's return, Take a listen.

Speaker 6 (16:58):
It was a little bit of both, you know, happy
and angry, but trying to see some familiar faces here.
You know, I spent a lot of times with them.
Like you said, you know, there's a lot of emotions.
When I woke up, I was tired and I didn't
sleep much. I'm excited about this game, and I really
appreciate the fence the way that reacted to it.

Speaker 1 (17:19):
To me, you know, when you see a guy return
to the old stomping grounds, you know, they they all
do the same thing. Whether it's baseball, basketball, football, they
always find the security guys that used to chop it
up with. They're like, oh, there's the ground crew guy.
You know, they do their rounds. It's that first time,
beautiful homecoming security people. And then like I say, then,
like I said, then by the second time, it's like,

(17:40):
all right, we got that emotional moment out of our system.
And he also talked about it being time to officially
move on now.

Speaker 6 (17:47):
Everybody told me the way I reacted to the video.

Speaker 3 (17:50):
You know, all these fans, I really appreciate it. Man,
all the teammates I had, you know, everybody had my back.

Speaker 6 (17:57):
So I mean, I'm the happy you know this guy,
I love.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
This fans, I love the city. But oh, by the way,
you know what else is really cool. We sort of
touched on it, but I want to point it out specifically.
You know, the cambassador La Ken La Ken Bron James
I ordered my doll. I'm kidding you know, Lebron has
a new Ken doll out right, of course the Ambassador,

(18:21):
but this Lebron doll has extra bull Does it come
with flopping action or not? No, no flopping action. But
I thought it was really cool and big of him
too to lead the charge and support Luca the way
he did in that moment. Really shows that he and
the Lakers have his back. Because I did notice Lebron
being one of the biggest and bigger cheerleaders to the

(18:43):
fans at that game.

Speaker 3 (18:45):
I thought that was cool to say Luca is a star.

Speaker 1 (18:47):
But how long was he in Dallas?

Speaker 4 (18:50):
It was the start of his seventh year'st years.

Speaker 1 (18:53):
Yeah, so what would Luca have to do to not
be remembered as a Maverick. Because you know, when you
when you think about stars that change teams, I always
think that there's an obvious team associated with every player.
There's only a few where I'm like, oh, interesting one,
Like is Peyton Manning, Like you think of him as
a cult but he won with the Broncos. Yeah, but
he also with the cults. But I still think I

(19:15):
still think he earned his his uh time with the Broncos. Like, Okay,
when you win with a team, you'll be remembered with that.
To me, there's there's a guy that I feel like
is the toughest one of all And I mentioned them
already coincidentally today Mike Piazza see a Dodger or met I.

Speaker 4 (19:32):
Think, yeah, it depends who you ask, right, There's.

Speaker 1 (19:34):
Very few times where you can name a superstar and
not know. Now Lebron is Lebron a Laker or is
he a calf? Like when it's all said and done, I.

Speaker 4 (19:42):
Mean, I think it depends you're I can't speak for
Laker fans, but I would say he has to win
another one a Laker.

Speaker 3 (19:49):
I mean, I still I still feel like he's a calf.

Speaker 1 (19:52):
He's a calv he's a calf, and then he's a heat,
and then he won more with every team but the Cat,
like he won one with the Cavs.

Speaker 3 (19:59):
You're right though, And the fact that if he wins
another title with the Lakers, then that will change.

Speaker 4 (20:04):
I think it will change.

Speaker 1 (20:05):
Well, Fluca, it spends four years with the Lakers, but.

Speaker 4 (20:07):
And wins, that will change. But he has to win,
and he has to win more than one. Like if
he spends the next decade with the Lakers and wins one,
I think people will still see him as a map.

Speaker 1 (20:19):
About Johnny Damon Red Sox first, but he was he
was a royal for so long. And Yankees I got
one with the Yankees. Chris Paul? Where do you? Where
do you put Chris Paul? A Clipper?

Speaker 3 (20:31):
Clipper?

Speaker 4 (20:32):
Isn't that crazy to think?

Speaker 2 (20:34):
Though? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (20:35):
What about Ricky? What about a guy we lost this year?
Ricky Henderson? Is he an a or Yankees? An oak
for that's coming from a Yankee? Yeah. Another thing that
I haven't heard anyone really talk about, but I did
see the highlight numerous times is the mutual respect and
warm embrace, the friendly embrace between him and a d
at the end of the game that it was really

(20:58):
cool to So you got to point that out too,
because you know they're forever linked. And you know what,
here's the thought I had when I was driving. I
was like, I bet you could say I thought you
had what you were drinking. No, this is I only
drink on the weekends. So last night, nope, Today nope.
I was driving in and I was thinking of that embrace,

(21:20):
and I was like, I wonder what Ad said to him,
and then imagine he said like, yeah, we're not going
to win this year. Man, go all the way and
get me that rink, because you know AD's and to
get a rink if they win. But do you want
to ring that way?

Speaker 3 (21:33):
Why not? To me, it felt like, man, this has
been a hard few months for both of us, you
know what I mean, That's what it felt like to me.

Speaker 1 (21:40):
Oh yeah, no doubt, no doubt. But I bet you
like joke because there was a little bit of a
joking at the end of it. I was like, I
wonder what was said at the end. AD was like,
and I still can't find a house here in Dallas. Yeah,
but it was nice to see all this attention for
all this attention for us two guys like, I don't
know what are you saying those moments. It's like, you know,
I'll tie it back to the other.

Speaker 3 (22:00):
Rich.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
It's like it's like seeing your your girls new guy.
Do you really have animosity toward that guy if he
wasn't in the picture? You know, like whatever, he didn't
do anything wrong, He didn't do anything wrong. My problems
with with her?

Speaker 2 (22:15):
Not you.

Speaker 1 (22:18):
A Rando fun Covino on Rich Thursday, Mike in Utah,
your thoughts on Luca last night? An emotional evening in
the NBA.

Speaker 7 (22:25):
Thank you?

Speaker 1 (22:26):
Yeah, what's up buddy?

Speaker 8 (22:28):
Hey, not much. My thoughts on this is it broke
my heart to actually start to like Luca last night.
I'm a Utah jazz man. All we have in Utah
is Utah jazz and now Jordan loves football. And to
think back to twenty twenty two in the playoffs when
we had Donovan Mitchell and Ruby Gobert and it felt
like we were we had a chance to go to
the championship. Nothing broke my heart more than halfway through

(22:51):
this series Luca coming back and then just torching us
and ruining all of our hopes and dreams for.

Speaker 1 (22:55):
The last Sometimes you just got to tip your hat.
And you know what, We've made this point several times.
You touched on it this week. There's nothing wrong with
rooting for players. You can't just all of a sudden
root for the Lakers. You know it's not your team.
But you can root for Luca and acknowledge how great
he is. It's like the Dodgers beat the Yankees last year.
I acknowledge how great show Heyo, Toddy is. You know

(23:16):
you can't deny it. I think you're allowed to also say, hey,
if my team's not in the mix this year, what
storyline will well? I get enjoyment that players do. I like, yeah,
they're fun to watch. Certain players just fun to watch.
Let's say, how did Jude in Virginia? It's up man,
C and R.

Speaker 8 (23:32):
Hey guys, it's going on.

Speaker 1 (23:33):
What's up? Hey, Buddy?

Speaker 9 (23:35):
I just wanted to say, comment on how the Luca sings.
So there's similar player was like a reunion was with
Freddy Frun with the Dodgers, Like he was like kind
of wavering at the beginning, like after he got signed
by the Dodgers from the Braves and he hit a
big reunion as Atlanta and everyone was just cheering him on,
and he got really emotional and like he went off
and after that, I feel like a switch just clicked

(23:56):
on him and he just like really performed for the Dodgers.

Speaker 1 (23:59):
Like, dude, that's a great exam that whole thing with
his agent. Remember, Yeah, that's a really great example. It's
very similar. Neither guy wanted to leave. They both left,
they came back, they got emotional, and they got their
closure and turned it on. I was gonna say, that
should be what Danny's hoping for. Yeah, you should be
hoping for. Ye, you should be hoping for, Like it's
it's the closure one needs, like you said, in a relationship,

(24:21):
a job or anything. Maybe Now Luca is one hundred
percent honed in in focus. There's no lingering because let's
be honest. You know that up until last night, he
knew like, oh, it's a week and a day.

Speaker 3 (24:33):
Or I need to see Luca do a statue of
liberty celebration now as the Lakers win the finals.

Speaker 1 (24:38):
All Ah Freddy for even I I just know that
you don't think Luca had that date on his calendar
in the back of his head. No, doubt he had
last night mentally on his mind. Oh yeah, it was
probably way on the return to Dallas. Sure. Yah, maybe
that's why he was so belligerent the night before. It's
just emotional crazy man.

Speaker 2 (24:55):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (24:55):
Steven in Washington State wrapped this up. What's up? Man?
Oh Steven, what's up?

Speaker 10 (25:00):
Guys?

Speaker 11 (25:01):
Yeah. I remember when Griffy came back to Seattle. I
was at the game when it was Cincinnati.

Speaker 8 (25:07):
Read it, it's like two thousand and seven, yep.

Speaker 1 (25:09):
And uh.

Speaker 11 (25:10):
He hit two home runs, two bombers, and the crowd
cheered ouder for him when he hit those home runs
then when we actually won the game, but it was
such an emotional experience. Is fantastic.

Speaker 1 (25:24):
I've been to games where a player comes back, not
a magnitude of a Griffy, but I remember moments where,
like their first at bat, everyone was like cheering, and
then by the second or third that bat, it's like,
all right, you're on the other team now.

Speaker 3 (25:35):
M h.

Speaker 1 (25:36):
I think we got it past us and this should
be a very interesting postseason. How will Luca react moving forward? Danny,
I know you're hoping in a big way. Let's look
at the clock. It's time we're going old school. There's
a snack.

Speaker 12 (26:00):
Into town, throwing it back for a Thursday. Old School
went fifty hits. That's fifty after CNR give you the
time capsule topic and we reminisce together.

Speaker 1 (26:11):
Yeah, today's National Siblings Day. So this had two part doozy?
What does that mean? Does that mean we have to
call our siblings today? You have to post a picture
on social media.

Speaker 3 (26:22):
Everyone see a lot of that on social media with
hashtag National Siblings Day.

Speaker 1 (26:26):
I did that in my ig story. So if you
go to Steve Cavino you could see my Well, we
call it the mutant version theory. So if you know
what I look like, right, let's say your eyes are
accustomed to my face, you could see all the mutant
versions of me, my other siblings, whoever, you know all
their siblings look like mutants to you, Like I was Sam.

(26:46):
Do you have any siblings? Yes, an older sister. If
we looked at I was Sam's older sister, we'd probably
be like, oh, it's like I was saying with.

Speaker 5 (26:52):
A wig, right, you would be like, uh, yeah, Iowa,
Sam's the mutant right right right, it's my sister. Uh,
she just looks better. But say as a woman, I
believe as a parents, yes, just as a human.

Speaker 1 (27:05):
Yes to my brother's friends, I have a brother. Right
to my brother's friends, I'm the mutant version of him.
You see how it is like it's whoever you're accustomed to,
whoever you meet first. But today I guess you honor
your siblings. So shout out to my sister Grace, Donnie Jennifer,
my brother Tomasito, I have a well, there's five of
us in my family. Rich has a brother and a sister,

(27:27):
Jimmy and Laurie. Now Here, here's where blunt. Yeah, named
after jim Pluggett. And I think my dad loved Jimmy
Connor's little short shorts. And you were named after Richard Simmons. Right,
shut up, I heard. That's that's what I heard. So
here's here's the double doozy on you. Dixon National Siblings Day.
I do not tell lies. Number one, I want you

(27:48):
to name your favorite sports siblings. That's not a conversation.
You just got to throw it out there, like you
know how DP they say they're agent weight or something
like that. Right, they're hip weight.

Speaker 3 (27:56):
So you start with that.

Speaker 1 (27:57):
You start with favorite sports siblings and then you have
to we have to be impressed. You have to tell
us a quick, funny story about one of your siblings,
and we judge if it's funny enough, because we will
we will buzz you if it's bad.

Speaker 3 (28:09):
Remember the storytelling rules on the radio that we go with,
too Rich, A beginning, a middle, and end around thirty
to forty seconds.

Speaker 1 (28:16):
Quick, yeah, make a snappy all right, we get you involved.
Every Thursday, Old School in fifty hits eight seven, seven
ninety nine on the box and at Cobino and Rich.

Speaker 3 (28:26):
Don't need the details, Covino of Like, what what the
name of the restaurant that hit this story?

Speaker 1 (28:30):
Too Italian place? I think it was called U. Maybe
it was called Pans and that was the way it was. No,
it was Marias No, no, no, I believe though, you
know the order to margarita. Wait, maybe it was an
old fashioned hold on? What was the drinking again? I'm
gonna start cash up sure please, sports siblings. I'm going
to Ripkins just because I like the Billy Ripkins f
face cards. All it's part of the collection. So I'm

(28:53):
going Ripkin Bros. And my brother is just a clown.
There's so many stories to tell about my my brother
top Jimmy. But sometimes your siblings will stay a quote
and it sticks with them the rest of their lives,
like something done they say at a restaurant, at a
family event, or something. Right, my brother went with my sister.
They're about around the same age. They went to a

(29:14):
club when they first turned like eighteen nineteen. My siblings
are a friend. I'm older, so don't I never hung
with them that way?

Speaker 2 (29:19):
Right.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
My brother goes, Jimmy, where'd you go? Apparently he went
out to the dance floor. She goes, you would dance,
and he goes, no, No, I don't dance. I grind. Until
this day, every time we see my brother, were like, yeah, no,
Jimmy doesn't. But he really meant it. He grind grinds,
he grinds. He's on the grind. I means this almost
Also my brother, who was trying to figure out the name.

(29:41):
He goes one time, what's the name of that the
big green guy in Trek, were like, Shrek that guy,
I mean, I have a story about your brother. I
mean go right to him. Kevino's brother Tommy, he does
appraisals for a living. So this guy goes around appraising
grown men and women's home This is classic. And he

(30:02):
was writing down in his notes he had heard the
phrase Florida ceiling windows, but he thought everyone was saying
Florida ceiling windows. So for a while he was noting, yeah,
they got Florida ceiling windows. Like wait, He's like Keanu
a little bit. It's like, wait a minute, whoa you

(30:22):
mean it's not Florida's ceiling windows. No, it's Florida ceiling windows. Whoa, Oh,
I have another good one about your brother. I mean
I got stories about my brother too. Which one do
you remember when you convince your brother remember red box
what you would get DVD's. Yeah, maybe you convince your
brother that they hired little people to sit inside there.
And he believed it. And he was not like a kid.
He was like twenty years old. Yeah, so that is true.

Speaker 3 (30:45):
A tough labor deal right here.

Speaker 1 (30:46):
You might still believe it. I gotten there, Yeah, a
little stuffy. So again, give us your favorite brothers in
sports and your story about your sibling and make it snappy.
We get to your phone calls and your feedback. And
of course we still got a great story about David Robinson.
And I know Sam, You're excited to talk about Dier
wolves and Willie mammoths and what's going on in the
world more CNR. Next, when it comes to brothers, I

(31:14):
got some surprises before I get into my stories. People
listen to rocky music, Huh they do? Like the band Filter.
The lead singer of the band Filter, Richard who sings
I wanna take your picture?

Speaker 3 (31:28):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (31:28):
Filter's Filter. Richard Patrick, lead singer. They used to be
in nine inch Nails started Filter. His brother is Robert
Patrick from Terminator two and Sopranos, the actor Robert Patrick,
the cop.

Speaker 3 (31:40):
I did not know that a lot of people.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
Don't know that because they're two different worlds. Like wait,
the rockstar and the actor. They're brothers. They're absolutely brothers.
I got another one for you, Rob Zombie of White
Zombie Fame, Rob Zomb and his brother Rod, not his
brother Rod. No one really talks about his brother Rod,
Rod Zombie. He's kind of cool, but not as cool
as Spider One. Who's Spider One? The lead singer of

(32:03):
Powerman five thousand. This is what is lackin World's collade.
They're actually brothers, actual brothers. The band Incubus Brandon Boyd
and Scott Einsinger all their little brothers are in a band.
They're little brothers are in a band called Audio Vent
and Coorn Jonathan Davis's brother. You know Coorn Jonathan Davis's brother.

(32:26):
It's actually his half brother. Marky Chavez is the lead
singer of Edema. So when you hear Dema songs, they
sound like Korn songs. And that's why. So I know
I'll be talking about that later on. But as far
as sports, about the game work, Corn never says goodbye
to see you later. No the band Corn, Oh yeah,
not the actual vegetable And I know what you mean

(32:47):
by that, covid know. Can I give you one hip hop?

Speaker 12 (32:49):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (32:49):
Give you siblings? Andre three thousand and big Boy from
Outcast actual brothers. And let's see here.

Speaker 1 (32:57):
Are you saying like the black guys like, yeah, they
look a little different.

Speaker 3 (33:02):
I don't know. Yeah, Okay, they've said that they're brothers
for life.

Speaker 1 (33:05):
Okay, let me let me let me give you one.
How about uh blood brothers peak swear? How about I
don't know if the third ones are brother.

Speaker 3 (33:11):
But if you do the blood oath, are you really
like are your step brothers?

Speaker 1 (33:15):
I don't know? If the third ones are brother but
Fred Savage, Ben Savage and much Man Randy Savage. Yeah,
I mean, I'm not sure about Randy, but the other
two for sure. But fun fact, the late great Macho
Man Ready Savage. If you were a wrestling fan in
the eighties and nineties, his brother in real life is
leaping Lanni Papa. That is true. And if you're a

(33:36):
wrestling fan, you know that. But look it up. People
believe it.

Speaker 3 (33:39):
How about the Island Boys, they're definitely brother I got.

Speaker 1 (33:43):
Another just trying to make it. I got another one
off of Danny G's bunk list. Danny's like, what about
Booster Rhymes Rhymes, They're the.

Speaker 3 (33:49):
Top of this list. Look at they're the top of
this list. And I'm like, I didn't know that, And
then I clicked on it and says blood Brothers come
on that Google AI overview and needs a little tweaking.

Speaker 1 (33:58):
Yeah, I mean, can we say the most famous ones?

Speaker 3 (34:02):
You gotta say like biological siblings. We know Reverend run
and Russell Simmons too.

Speaker 1 (34:07):
Yeah, for sure. I don't want to take the answer,
So let's go to Josh and Ohio on National Siblings Day.
You want to go to the calls room. Yeah. Sure,
your favorite athlete brothers and your story about your siblings
on National Siblings Day Old school in fifty hits we
reminisce every Thursday. Josh, what's up man.

Speaker 10 (34:24):
Good afternoon, gentlemen. Yeah, keeping with the w with the
wrestling theme. My favorite athlete siblings brothers are both amateur
wrestlers and professional wrestlers from my University of Michigan, the
Steiner Brothers.

Speaker 1 (34:39):
These are those the official wrestling headgear. I remember that.
I prefer the van Erics. Yeah, yeah, I prefer he
was everyone's brother brother love. That's a good one. That's
a good one.

Speaker 3 (34:54):
And Josh, did you have a quick story for us?

Speaker 1 (34:58):
I do all right what you got.

Speaker 10 (35:00):
So, my brother and I Gigantic Blue Tank Fans were
coming up on the twenty fifth anniversary. We were set
to go to Chicago to see them at the House
of Blues. All nine members were going to do three
songs set solo set, including ODB who was still alive,
and then then we're going to come back and do

(35:21):
a group set. We drove from Indianapolis all the way
up to Chicago. We hit Lake Shore Drives. I said,
my brother, you got the tickets right, he had left
them all the way in Indianapolis two and a half
hours sold out.

Speaker 1 (35:36):
What an ass clown that was.

Speaker 3 (35:40):
Facial recognition.

Speaker 1 (35:41):
That's the worst, all right? You ever blamed something on
a sibling and no one knew until years later. All
the time like that, you have to like that's like
your you know, the older sibling. You bully them and
you blame everything sad like someone dented Debt's car with
a baseball and you're like, like anything like that, that's
the best. Uh, let's go to Matt in Alaska. You

(36:01):
also have to practice your wrestling moves on them. Is
just how it happens. You know how many times my
brother was a recipient of a figure for leg lock.
My goodness, what's up, Matt?

Speaker 2 (36:11):
Hey, what's going on? I'd say my favorite sports siblings
or probably the Curry brothers, just some from the simple
fact that how can both of them be so freaking
good at at shooting basketball?

Speaker 1 (36:21):
You know what the sad part is, Seth, if not
for Steph, would be you know, almost like more respected.
It's I almost feel like poor Seth Curry is like, well,
let's see Steph's brother. Yeah, I agree, with that.

Speaker 2 (36:34):
I completely agree. Yeah, funny sibling. Funny sibling story is uh.
About twenty five years ago, my brother and I were
talking sports and I said that somebody I don't remember
who we're talking about, but I was like, yeah, that
dude so good. And he goes, who's Sara Gee? And
I said what? And he goes, who's Sarah Ghee? And
now me and my other two brothers have never ever
referred to him by name. He is only known as

(36:54):
Sared Geez crazy.

Speaker 1 (36:58):
That's so stupid, but I can see that being a thing.
Ye brothers do trip in Vegas. What's up? Man?

Speaker 7 (37:06):
What's up? Gentlemen? Look forward to next week seeing al
in the morning. So my favorite, uh would be the
Handsome brothers from slap Shot. And then the story real quick.

Speaker 2 (37:18):
Uh.

Speaker 7 (37:18):
My sister's nine years older than I am. I was
eight years old. She'd been beating me up or something,
and I was mad, Oh, I had got a red
Rider baby gun. I ran her through the garage where
we had a screen door, and I was like, I'm
gonna shoot shot, and she's like, go ahead, and she
bent over and put her butt to the window. What
she didn't realize was the screen was up. I shot
her right in the butt. And to this day she

(37:41):
remembers that she thought she thought the glass was still there,
but the glass was up.

Speaker 2 (37:45):
I shot it.

Speaker 7 (37:45):
I mean she To this day she.

Speaker 1 (37:46):
Remembers that trip, trip, you trip. I appreciate it. So
again I'll tell my story. My nod goes to the
Conseko brothers come on to beasted on Twinszzi and yeah,
goofy Ozzie your answer to yeah, I mean to me
the most famous because you still got Jose who's a legend.
He's still calling out Aaron Judge. Have you heard that story?

(38:07):
Stupid Jose Canseco, who I love. He was great forty
forty hitting bombs. But he claims that he could hit
a softball farther than Aaron Judge could hit a baseball,
and he has half a million dollars on it. I
have a question, and Judge won't take the challenge. But
weren't there stories though, where he would use Ozzy as
a stand in? Yeah, there were a lot of weird
Ozzy Conseico stories because they were twins. But Ozzi looks

(38:29):
like a little different when you look at him closely,
he looks a little different. From Jose not as massive,
so they're my sports nod when it comes to brothers
on Siblings Day. But I got so many siblings stories.
You know, you mentioned that my brother is an appraiser.
My mom's not gonna like this story, so mom ear
muffs if you're listening. But he's a young, thirty something

(38:52):
year old stud, right, my brother. He goes in for
an appraisal and it was like an old realtor lady there,
and let's just say she through some moves on my
brother and he was like but she was old yeo.
And I was like how old. He's like old and
I was like like, like mom old, He's like yeah,

(39:15):
I'm like, oh my god. In someone's house. Yeah. So
he was appraising, well I don't know whose house it was.
I guess yeah, he was appraising a house and the
realtor lady was there. No. I think they had relations
like somewhere else. I don't know, but she made the
moves on my brother, so he went real old. That's
one story. Another story is he saw Forrest Gump and

(39:35):
thought it was real for years and I think that
was great. Brother. He was born when I was heading
to college, so when I would visit. He thought I
was just some dude that would visit every once in
a while, until years later he realized that was his brother.
Like it made no sense to him. And unfortunately, my
grandpa passed away when we were kids, right, so by

(39:56):
the time my brother was aware of things, when Grandma
would visit, Grandma would always visit with my Uncle Tommy,
my dad's brother, So forever my brother thought that my
grandma was married to her son. Your brother's a dope, yeah,
but that's usually the youngest sibling, right. They don't know

(40:17):
the family dynamics. I'm like, so, wait a second, if
you thought grandma was married to Uncle Tommy, did you
think Uncle Tommy was your grandpa? It's like, I never
really thought about it. I'm like, what you know, it's
really honestly, it's a I never thought about it. The
younger siblings just have no inside on those times and
they don't care. There was a Christmas Eve where my

(40:37):
younger brother, my dad's first cousin, like that grew up
like a brother to my dad. They lived in the
same neighborhood my dad's first cousin at they and they
also worked at a supermarket in High school together. My
brother at a holiday was like, so, Dad, you met
Donnie at the supermarket. You met Dot Jimmy, that's your uncle.
Did you meet again? Oh they're related. We didn't mean

(41:00):
it to supermarket. So I think it's just younger, said
my sister Grace. She's always dying her hair like purple
or something ridiculous, right, And she was dyeing her hair
and got it on her arm and she was going
out and didn't know how to get it off. She
used magic eraser on her arm, burning all her skin
off her arm. It still has like all the scars
from like the burns on it. So you know, siblings,

(41:23):
you have stories for days. Danny G. I know you
got brothers who listen, so tell us your stories.

Speaker 3 (41:28):
Yeah, I'm one of eight. It's almost like Tyreek kills
my dad.

Speaker 1 (41:31):
Oh my god.

Speaker 3 (41:32):
Yeah. Really well, three dads and three moms involved. So
one of my younger step brothers, Andrew, he went to
school with Colin Kaepernick in northern California and I and
not ironically, he is a forty nine er fan. You'll
love this. Rich. So we're at one of the famous
Raider Niners candlestick preseason games. All the fights in the
parking Lot Action Pack games before the season began. He

(41:56):
was one of the fans they called down for halftime
to kick a feel goal to win. I think it
was like a thousand dollars. So we can't believe he's
one of the ones chosen. We're like, oh my god,
so he's down there. He's athletic, by the way, good
basketball player, pretty good athlete. He slips on the grass
as his foot touches the football, so they counted it

(42:16):
as the kick.

Speaker 1 (42:17):
He eats. Bleep.

Speaker 3 (42:19):
He hit the grass so hard. To this day he
never lifts it down. If we're at a family picnic anything,
we're like, oh, Andrew, get the football out, let's see.

Speaker 1 (42:29):
You kick dude. Yeah, you know, And that's his siblings
job to like, never let him forget these things. It's great, Sam,
you know, I tell us more about your hot sister
or what hot in comparison to me. Well, she's a
few years older than me, doctor Martha. She's a pediatrician.
She's much more just what Martha. Yeah, wow, people with

(42:51):
that name in the eighties, huh yep, yep.

Speaker 5 (42:53):
She was born in eighty four, so she turned forty
last June. That well, we just had I mean, we
got along pretty well grown up. She did kind of
like up until we kind of got to that that
peace deal when we were like, you know, twelve fourteen whatever.
She would like, you know, would you try to hang
out stuff? Would you try to hang out with all

(43:14):
her hot friends?

Speaker 2 (43:15):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (43:15):
Yeah, were you the younger brother that you the guy
that lingered around like the show? No, they wanted they
wanted to hang out with me. Nice.

Speaker 5 (43:22):
There was like expectations, They're like, oh, it's fate that
Sam and Ali are gonna like hook up over the
Fourth of July, and the like I was too chicken
chicken ass to go through with it.

Speaker 1 (43:31):
I was like, she's too intimidating.

Speaker 5 (43:33):
Oh man, so I but I opportunity say, I know,
I tagged along a lot.

Speaker 3 (43:37):
Though we had great times.

Speaker 5 (43:38):
She's she's great and she lives out in Philadelphia, but
she would like bet she would bully me around physically,
like she threw a stapler at my head. Once she
threw like a magazine with like a real of thick
uh binding on It hit me in the forehead. But
then like one day I was like big enough where
I just like sat on her and she did one
of those like cartoon like banging the ground, like get
off of me, and from there like Ralphie and the

(43:59):
Christmas Store exactly. They still like from then on though,
like I you know.

Speaker 1 (44:02):
She was like she was what was that two weeks ago? Dude?

Speaker 3 (44:07):
I like twenty five years ago?

Speaker 1 (44:08):
Spot? Who's doing our videos at Covino and Rich Spot?
You got to see his brothers. His brothers are straight
from the Jersey Shore cast right. His brother his name
is James. They call him Jay Rock and he's a
DJ in New Jersey. It's almost like if they didn't
go with the situation, they would with Jay Rock. And
he was on a spot.

Speaker 3 (44:29):
I'm like, I don't get that at all.

Speaker 1 (44:30):
He was on standby. We've got so many x rated
stories about Jay Rock that we can't even talk about
him here on the radio. But one time he's like, yeah,
I'm a robot. Now, Like, what do you mean? You're
a robot? At the clubs in New Jersey? Not only
does he or did he DJ? Or I don't know
if he still does it. Remember when he had like
an eight foot robot outfit that he would march out

(44:51):
to you. He said to you, he goes, guys, well
it comes. He's a total guido. We called him Guidotron
for years because he would come out as a robot
with like neon lights in the middle the claw. Guido
Tron put on a show at the Jersey Shore, so
he was that guy. He really is.

Speaker 5 (45:07):
The Intergalactic Beastie Boys music video just Pauli.

Speaker 1 (45:12):
D would have messed up. J Rock would have been
there if Ronnie did not bring the ron Ron juice,
Jay Rock would have been in there. But hey, you
have siblings day. Look at all the mutants that you
see on social media. Those are the siblings of your friends.
Let's say hi to Zach to wrap this up. What's
up Zach?

Speaker 11 (45:30):
Hey, guys, how you doing favorite sports sibling? Steelers fan?
So I gotta go with the Watt Brothers manage just
because of TJ. And then two real quick stories about
my brother when we were little kids. Remember like dad
slipping curse words into stuff. Instead of calling you an

(45:51):
a hole, call you a grasshole. And remember my brother
screwing it up and instead of saying that, called him
a grass a and always just thought that was really funny.

Speaker 1 (46:02):
Yeah, those are things that live all those family things
live on for years and years. Those are the jokes
you bring up with, you know, the holiday or the bary.
They never go away.

Speaker 11 (46:13):
One other one Steel when we were like kids, to
the point where we would take baths together. We would
stand up on the back of the ledge and then
slide down. The bath water would splash everywhere. Dad came in,
picked me up by my foot, smacked me on the butt,
took off Ryan run into the bedroom like a little kid,
and picked my brother up, smacked him in the butt,

(46:34):
set him down. He turned around and said are you
done yet? Still to this day with.

Speaker 1 (46:40):
Question, are you done yet? Do you?

Speaker 12 (46:42):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (46:43):
Do you remember when you took baths with your siblings? Yeah?
You still do, right? You and your brother? My brother's
weird when we get together. I always thought that was weird, Rich,
but I still do it's not And Rich still doesn't
wash his feet extra hands in there, so weird. You know,
You know, Rich, I never did that because I'm eight
years old than my next sibling. I'm way older than
my sibling. Yeah, there was one last question about siblings.

(47:04):
Will we'll move along? Are you shocked that Joey Bosa
didn't take a little less money to play with his
brother in San Francisco. Listen, when you're making tens of
millions of dollars, I get it, you're trying to get
the best deal for yourself. But there was a part
of me that thought you would get the brother discount
because there was there was speculation that, you know, Nick
Bosa was trying to tell his brother Joey, you could

(47:27):
now you have the ability come playing in the Bay Area, Cola.

Speaker 3 (47:29):
Do you think some of that though? You want to
be your own man, Like, imagine if your brother wanted
to join you on your radio show.

Speaker 1 (47:35):
Yeah, I guess so. But there was a part of
me that thought, wow, how cool. They probably dreamt about it, right, like, yeah,
the Bosa brothers on the same team, they had the chance,
and he went to Buffalo, right right. I always thought
that was interesting. I was like, I know, it's like
a million dollars more and like, you can't you can't
sniff it at you, you can't hold your nose up
at a million dollars, like, well, why would we do it?

Speaker 4 (47:54):
But he probably just thinks he has a better chance
of winning with Buffalo.

Speaker 3 (47:58):
Man Monci, do you have siblings.

Speaker 4 (47:59):
I do have two older brothers much older, so ten
and eight years older than me, and I do have
a funny story.

Speaker 1 (48:06):
Are they protective of you or not? Really?

Speaker 4 (48:07):
Yeah, they're protective, but they're not They're not crazy.

Speaker 1 (48:10):
H her brothers.

Speaker 3 (48:11):
They are stand up guys. They're very enjoyable.

Speaker 4 (48:14):
Yeah, they're good People's when I was like, I don't know,
maybe thirteen, they're playing basketball and I would tag along
and one of my brothers, Gus Gustavo, the middle brother.

Speaker 1 (48:23):
He's real like Gusta.

Speaker 4 (48:25):
If you want to try to punk him, he's going
to stand his ground. So he kind of got into
a push and shove with the player and the player
punched him in the jaw and he went to the
ground and was ejected. We didn't know but he had
a concussion. We had no idea, and he's like a jokester.
So we're in the car driving back home and he's like,
who won the game? And we're like, oh, no, you
guys lost. Three minutes later, who won the game?

Speaker 1 (48:47):
And we thought it was a joke. Get home.

Speaker 4 (48:49):
He's asked us a million times, thinking as a joke.

Speaker 1 (48:51):
He cut his hair.

Speaker 4 (48:52):
This was around two thousand and two.

Speaker 1 (48:53):
There was a player from Brazil.

Speaker 4 (48:54):
The World Cup was going on and a player from
Brazil had like a little patch of hair here.

Speaker 3 (48:59):
At the top, and he cut his hair in the garage.

Speaker 4 (49:02):
By the end of the night, we realized he had
a concussion, and so we took him to the hospital.
When he finally got all better, he was like, why
did you let me cut my hair like this?

Speaker 3 (49:15):
I should have done so he should have done something
productive like rob a bank.

Speaker 4 (49:19):
No, he did not do and he had like like
a full head of hair and then he had to
just shave it all up. So we didn't We did
not know he had he was going through a concussion.

Speaker 1 (49:27):
It's so sad and funny at this time, I know
it was sad and funny. Gustavo's JC. I can't wait
to meet him on Siblings Day. You know what I thought.
I always thought that Klay Thompson and Trace Thompson didn't
get enough credit for being brothers in two different sports.

(49:49):
Like I thought that was really cool because I mean,
Trace had his moments. He wasn't a big time baseball superstar,
but he had his moments with the Dodgers. With the
Dodgers and you know, Clay Thompson obviously he's an NBA
legend at this point, but I always thought that was
kind of cool.

Speaker 3 (50:05):
I think we also need to mention the Williams sisters
and Peyton and Elis and the.

Speaker 1 (50:10):
Most famous brothers, the Kelsey's. Yeah yeah, uh, I mean,
you know, you know the crazy part to put in perspective.
You know how a lot of times, you know, life
and kids and work and all this stuff takes over.
You might not talk to your siblings or you know,
you might go weeks or months without really connecting. Do
you know that Jason and Travis said before they did
that podcast New Heights they would go months and months

(50:31):
and months without even communicating at all. And now you
know they've used their brotherhood to sign one hundred million
dollars deal. Yeah, so they go, brothers, sisters enjoy owing
for the record. There's another Thompson, Michael Thompson, who also
is a former basketball player. But Rich, you mentioned the Kelsey's.
You think Travis is mad at Kanye today? You know

(50:55):
we were talking about that during the last Laughs at
it or do you think he's mad about it? What
Kanye tweeted something ridiculous? Didn't he hold like he still
hasn't got his way with Taylor Swift or something like that,
and of course we don't give any any credibility credibility
to anything he tweets. Well, what Kanye say? Kanye said,
I haven't done a super Bowl halftime show for these

(51:17):
three reasons. One because I said George Bush doesn't like
black people. Two I took the mic from Taylor, and
three I wore a maga hat. I'm thinking, no, there's
like twenty other reasons. I name, like twenty other reasons
you haven't done this about the merchandise you have on
your website yet. I don't know how about the Nazi
stuff or you know, all your other terrible antics. But
Kanye put on social media that I'm mad I haven't

(51:40):
f Taylor Swift yet, And I'm thinking, like, do you
look at him as a mental ki? I am? I
am sick of this kid? Him away heard about what's Travis'
is like when he sees it? Does he chuckle and laugh?
Like dude?

Speaker 2 (51:54):
That guy?

Speaker 1 (51:55):
When I see Kanye, I order you think the Travis
Kelsey is bothered or laughs at what a clown? An
embarrassing says?

Speaker 3 (52:06):
What a clown.

Speaker 1 (52:11):
Takes place? Waiting online at the Alamodome right outside with
all the events. So that's why I think saying and
letting it be known that it was in San Antonio
is even more important. It's in San Antonio and David
Robinson's there, probably with a client or a sponsor doing something.
To be honest, I don't even think it matters what
he's doing. He's there, and this fan's there. Some dude

(52:33):
in a non pushy from what I saw, not pushy,
just sort of moss up to David Robinson, the Admiral
David Robinson jersey number fifty right pretty sure, hands him
the jersey and has a sharp and he's like, hey,
do you mind signing this? And David Robinson gives him
the nah, and then the guy rudely just drops the

(52:58):
jersey like for you.

Speaker 3 (52:59):
Then it walks like he dropped a mic Like you
have to pay attention to the video to see the
jersey hit the ground.

Speaker 1 (53:05):
He just left it there in front of him, and
then David Robins said at Robinson's feet, then looks frustrated
like all right, jerk, like what's doing here? And you
got it one? They're like there's times like you said yesterday.
Both things could be right. They could both be jerks.
What was the jerkier move, David Robinson denying the autograph
or this guy then just throwing it on the ground,

(53:26):
Like were you that big of a fan? Or was
this a money grab? If you're just gonna throw the
jersey there like that and be rude about it, cause
I don't know if you're a real fan. Are you
parting with that jersey? Or yeah? Were you that let down?
There's so many ways to look at it. But you're
David Robinson. You're in San Antonio. No one's really bothering you.
So I think he could assigned the autograph and not

(53:46):
have been bothered. Even though he's hard to miss. He's
seven foot one, so there's no way you're missing the admiral.

Speaker 3 (53:52):
It's like when Rich got dissed by Kaepernick.

Speaker 1 (53:55):
It's true. We were in a VIP section at an
ESPN event where it wasn't like fans all around, and
I was like, yo, Cap, this is when he was
a Niner. I'm a Niners guy. I was like, yo,
could take a quick picture, and he gave me the
nah And from that day on him buddy tell me
with everybody else there and I remember thinking like, this
guy's a jerk, So you know, it's a battle of

(54:16):
who's the bigger jerk in this situation. Because it became
a somewhat viral clip, it's not a good look for
either party, but especially David Robinson. Here's the difference. Nobody
knows who that guy is, but everybody knows who David
Robinson is, so it makes him look worse. But is
it Is it a week move or not? Because you
also have to think two other things. From Robinson's standpoint,

(54:37):
if I sign this, then it might be a whole
bunch of other people bothering me photographs, right, and he's
just chilling, And how does he know that this guy
doesn't turn around and just try to make a profit
off of it. It doesn't matter. That does matter a
little bit, Like you really hate throwing some random do
to bone to me? Here, David Robinson one hundred. You
need to sign that jersey. You're in San Antonio, You're

(54:58):
a legend there. Who cares that the Doufs sells a jersey?
Maybe he needs a couple hundred bucks. Guess who doesn't?
David Robinson, No, because I'd rather sign it for a
fan that would appreciate it as opposed to some guy
who just wants to turn around and sell it.

Speaker 3 (55:09):
I think the key here it wasn't a bag of jerseys.

Speaker 1 (55:12):
It was just fun.

Speaker 3 (55:12):
Remember that Punked episode where Dirk was at dinner with
a teammate and they set him up and the kid
kept coming up with different things for him to autograph,
and he was so polite about it. But then the
fake mom was like, you're not gonna sign anything more
for him?

Speaker 1 (55:26):
And He's like, I signed like seventeen things for this kid.

Speaker 2 (55:29):
Dad.

Speaker 1 (55:29):
That's a funny, classic class I totally remember that. But hey,
your thoughts about David Robinson as we go to Monsey
for an updated on Hold on, we're gonna tell the story.
Didn't your mother in law meet David Robinson once and
he was nothing but a sweetheart? And it is siblings Day?
But I was thinking of my mother in law because
my mother in law met David Robinson at a church
in San Antonio. He's at a church and then he

(55:50):
was sweet just because people are church are good people.
David Robinson was that my mother is a good person.

Speaker 3 (55:56):
While you're in church.

Speaker 1 (55:57):
She was at a church. David Robinson was there and
she was small talking with him, and then afterward it
was like what do you do? And I'm like, what
do you do? He's seven to one? What do you
think he does? Take a ca he works at Agba,
He drives a dune buggy, he works at BUCkies. It's
David freaking Robinson and he's like, Man, I'm om the
center for the San Antonio Spurs, so I play professional basketball. Come.

(56:19):
You always have to remember that sometimes the timing might
be bad and you catch somebody in a bad moment.
Not everyone's in the great mood all the time. I
don't know.

Speaker 5 (56:27):
You hear like people running into Alec Baldman on a plane,
or like he's like a jerk to some flight attendant,
and then they run into him at a coffee shop
and he's a nice guy.

Speaker 1 (56:36):
You never know. Tomorrow we'll be here, yeah, like usual,
but Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday next week in for Dan Patrick.
So wake up with us early in the morning right
here on Fox Sports Radio Dan Patrick Show. And right
after this show in ten minutes over promised our bonus
pod on Fox Sports Radios YouTube page with Coach Ballgame.

(56:57):
Let's say hi to Todd wrap up the Previos conversation
David Robinson. It appears as though some dude asking for
an autograph and he was like nah, And at first
like is that root of Robinson? But the more details
were getting, because this is not a big story, the
more you're investigating David Robinson and Brownly is a great guy.
It was set ahead of time, like these autographs are

(57:18):
not happening. It was his team USA Jersey too, brother,
and it was a team USA Jersey. So like it
appears as though this could have just been some autograph
hound that Robinson sniffed out. Let's say, what's up to Todd? Hey, Todd, Yeah, man.

Speaker 5 (57:30):
That's kind of what I heard.

Speaker 10 (57:31):
There's no official you know, yeah source, but that's kind
of what I've heard.

Speaker 7 (57:36):
And then I also wanted to shout out some brothers
with the holiday coming up, if.

Speaker 5 (57:40):
That's all right?

Speaker 7 (57:40):
Yeah, what's up Naden Nick Diaz from the UFC.

Speaker 1 (57:44):
Oh, that's a good one. Yeah, love it for sure.
About the Charlow brothers. In the world of boxing, what
about the Clitch ghost, Yeah, the Clitch goes Maybe they
ruined the heavyweight dish revision for a decade because they
wouldn't fight each other. Lad he wants back at forty
eight for a title shot. That was the rumor for
a minute. The Brothers, the oh here go the Gasal

(58:05):
Brothers definitely on that album. Mark, don't hate me for
mentioning them, because I feel like we need to nowadays.
Jake and Logan Paul. No, I mean that's a fantastic one.
Who's a bigger name to you, Jake? I mean Logan
Paul is a wrestler because of what he's been able
to do. I mean he fought Mike Tyson, He's you know.

Speaker 2 (58:25):
Logan Paul.

Speaker 1 (58:26):
Logan Paul flaught Floyd maybe by the junior, it was
nowhere near as big. I don't think. I mean, I
think they're both hugely successful. Good for them and I
you know ones in the WWE, ones in the world
of boxing. So they're both doing great.

Speaker 2 (58:39):
Now.

Speaker 1 (58:40):
It's National Siblings Day. If you want to chime in
with your answers and your stories again, you hit us
up at Covino and Rich. You promised dire Wolves. Rich,
I'm never going to get to this. Well, it is
a big story. You talked about this yesterday.

Speaker 3 (58:53):
Rich.

Speaker 1 (58:53):
This is gonna be like, you know, how what is
it Jimmy Kimmel would always be like, they have to
bump Matt Damon. That's like the running joke. Are you
one of those posts to this story like you're mad
about it or no, I'm not mad about it. I
know they made you wooly mammoth mice wooly mice. I
don't know that's true. It is true. They were testing
on these mice to see if they could create the

(59:14):
wooly mammoth, the wooly mammoth or the experimenting first, I guess.
So they're like, so the ice with tusks, No, they
got the fur though. There's it's like people want them,
like people want these dire wolves, like Cesar Milan is like,
I would like one of these diar wolves.

Speaker 2 (59:29):
No.

Speaker 1 (59:30):
Season one did not say that. What Season one came
out and said, was you remember the dog Whisper season Yeah, Henan,
he came out and said, there are so many people
on social media that are now saying dumbass stuff like
I want a dire wolf. And he's like, these are
apex predators from ten thousand years ago that are dogs.

(59:50):
That's a dogs, So let's not think we need these
as pets and as we said yesterday again we didn't
leave ourselves enough time. But Sam, we talked about how
there are multiple movies that have worn to us of
what happens when we mess with with God's creations and
actual real stories that when you allow another animal into
somewhere it wasn't when you change it changes the ecosystem completely.

(01:00:13):
But I'm saying, like you may say, well, they'll keep
them contained, but what if they don't. If they don't,
can I say something?

Speaker 5 (01:00:18):
I think that they went extinct ten thousand years ago,
probably because of humans, So I would think that like
if they brought them back, they would have even less
of a chance to arrive because there's seven billion of
us and there's certainly fewer of that of us back
ten thousand years ago.

Speaker 3 (01:00:31):
That's just your take.

Speaker 1 (01:00:33):
What would you want to see though, if you had
a dire wolf, the Woldie mammoth, dinosaur, dinosaur, what would
you want to say? Definitely like the elephant related Just
to me think about that, probably the Woldly mammoth at
Covino and rich Over promised next or even there to
see you in the over Promised Land
