Speaker 3 (00:22):
Hoping you're having a wim Bin Yama sort of day,
not a Chauncey Billups sort of day, not an NBA
bad look for the NBA sort of day, Well, we
should all be talking about that performance last night from
Wembin Yama and how great he is, and how we're
seeing things we've never seen a seven foot five guy
do before. He's playing like he's six seven. Yeah, but

(00:43):
he's seven foot five. It's unbelievable that I don't want
to be a prisoner.

Speaker 1 (00:48):
Of the moment, but it's unbelievable that if this guy
plays into his potential.

Speaker 3 (00:55):
I don't want to be a prisoner period. I've seen
blood and blood out I heard, I heard did he
had knife to his neck? I heard those did He's
a prisoner of anything, but.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
Give me some chunk jones. So I don't want to
be a prisoner of anything. You're right, but of the moment, yeah,
no thanks.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
But after seeing Wenby last night, we knew as a
matter of time before he got accustomed to the NBA,
the speed, the style, everything, and as he gets older
and grows into his body, he's a kid.

Speaker 3 (01:24):
He's hitting pull up jump shots, he's getting rebounds. He's
not even jumping. He's slamming, jamming, rip, roaring and ramming.
He's making it look easy again forty points. He's playing
with some sazzle, some razzle dazzle. He's got moves, and
we haven't seen big dudes move like this. I mean,
dude's this big ever before. So we're seeing greatness scoatness

(01:45):
in the making, and that should be the main story.
So let it be known that that's what we're starting with. However,
there's this other, big, giant gambling story that's hard to
avoid because the moment you woke up today and you're like, dang,
what Chauncey billups all of Famer rigged Mafia related poker games,
and then of course all the other gambling nonsense that's

(02:07):
going on.

Speaker 4 (02:08):
I have a sign, Chauncey Billups Rookie cart does this
make a price go up on the card.

Speaker 3 (02:13):
Oh yeah, sometimes controversy does. Absolutely what's up dB Danny?
Was it the Seven of Diamonds that was signed? Or
it's funny, that's so funny?

Speaker 2 (02:24):
And thirty four other arrests I read thirty.

Speaker 4 (02:28):
He fire will be here till Thursday.

Speaker 3 (02:30):
And I don't know how the rest of the NBA
is feeling right now. It can't be good, but I
bet you there's other people out there, I bet that
are shaking in there. Jordan One's like, oh man, yeah,
I wouldn't bet either.

Speaker 4 (02:45):
Right now.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
It's a bad look.

Speaker 3 (02:47):
But there's a lot of people out there, probably associated
and related to these stories, and they're like, look, I
don't even want to deal with this nonsense right now.
So the NBA scandal, but first and first, mostly wimb
and Yama just playing big and again playing big over
big names, Anthony Davis. There are times where were flag

(03:07):
made Anthony Davis not look like the future Hall of
Famer that he is, And he's making slam dunks look
like hooks shots, so they look like sky hooks that
he's slamming because he's got this ridiculous wingspan. And we've
seen big players before. We've just never seen a move
like that at least. Yeah, that's how I feel when
I So, you.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
Think big guys, you think George Mirrasan, you think minute Ball,
you think Taco Fall. Guys that are his size are
usually there simply for one layer size, and they're they're clumsy,
they don't land.

Speaker 2 (03:39):
Knock me, they don't have the bounce and agility. Sean
Sean Bradley.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
The only other guy, the only guy that was I
guess really effective at that size, but career cut short
with injuries. Yao, Ming, would you say, is the only
guy of that level size? Well, Kareem was Kareem seven,
he was over seven foot for sure. Mitch Shack was seven.
I'm talking like guys that are seven to six, and
for all we know, he might be seven to seven

(04:07):
by the end of the year.

Speaker 3 (04:07):
Because he's still growing and grow and he's so young.
That's the other thing, right, Rich already said it. Yeah,
you give him some time to develop, and it seems like, hey,
game one, he's ready to play. When you see another
guy that size, Taco Fall, for example, it's it's usually
done in the nature of like get the big guy
in the game, like it's a spectacle or a side show.

Speaker 1 (04:28):
Like he's so big, let's just get him in the game,
fans or taco fall. No, this guy is very well capable.
And I'm again I'm probably a prison of the moment
in way exaggerating, but after the last time, I'm like, no.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
I don't think so.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
It was against the Dallas Maverick, but you're supposed to
be one of the premier teams if he didn't look
at against.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
If he continues to progress, And again I'm the guy
that said I'm not ready for the NBA, but how
can you avoid the dominating highlights where you know, if
that team continues to build, it could be anisty type
of stuff if they build around him properly there, because
he just looks like a guy that's we've ever seen before.

Speaker 4 (05:05):
After the game, Anthony Davis said, I don't know how
you're supposed to guard a guy like this.

Speaker 3 (05:10):
And honestly, that's the ultimate compliment, right because these guys
take a lot of pride in their game. Clearly Anthony
David takes a lot of pride in his defense. So
for him to humbly say that, I mean, it's not
like we couldn't see it with our own eyes, but
to acknowledge that this dude is a force, a young
force that's only going to get better and better and better,
we get the privilege to watch it again.

Speaker 2 (05:30):
Goatnus in the making.

Speaker 3 (05:32):
He might be one of the best of all time
to do it if he stays healthy and he keeps
up at it. So health has such health as wealth, Right,
It's like how many players that had such promise like ah,
but health And then he's sort of staying off the
weights too, and we see people that hit the weights
too hard end up getting injured a lot more too.
So we'll see how this plays out. But what a
great opening night. Forty points probably could have had a

(05:55):
lot more. Forty points all he needed for that win
over You know what, Dallas yesterday, I'm gonna pat myself
on the back like what you're like Barry Horror with
good old good eighties wrestling reference. I'm gonna pat myself
on the back. I think I I executed usually say
I'm gonna toot my own horn like Rich Davis. That's
what I usually say.

Speaker 1 (06:15):
I think you're gon say, does he Gillespie or something
who plays a trumpet? Like you, because it always comes
back to.

Speaker 2 (06:21):
Let me tell you how I'm the greatest guy.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
I didn't say I'm the greatest guy, but you know
I'm only medicine, you know, calls pade of spade. No, no, no,
it's just character development, a poker reference. In case there's
any new people listening. The mister perfect of the show,
Curtis rich Davis, No, I did the best thing as

(06:45):
far as like I by me saying like, I'm not
really excited about the NBA.

Speaker 2 (06:49):
The best thing, huh.

Speaker 1 (06:49):
I set the lowest expectation for myself, and we always
talk about like when people set a high expectation, you
can only let yourself down. I was emphatic about how
I was so not interested in the beginning of the
NBA season. I was like, I'm interested in the World Series.
It starts Friday, Dodgers, Blue Jays. We're into week eight
of the NFL. There's like ten five and two teams.

Speaker 2 (07:10):
Instant drama.

Speaker 3 (07:11):
All I did was we had a great opening night, right,
great battles, double overtime. Okay, see starting where they left off,
but it was a battle with the Rockets. The Warriors
were looking big. Got wim Bin Yama, and then you
woke up to all the scandal.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
You're like, oh, NBA, don't.

Speaker 4 (07:26):
Forget Michael Jordan telling Long Winter.

Speaker 1 (07:29):
All I did, Danny g was crap on the beginning
of the NBA season, So I sent the expectations so
low that I'm like, oh, wow, cool Michael Jordan's story.
And now, by the way, this video that has emerged,
you know the story he told about the nerves from
that free throw he took in front of the kids.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
Videos out.

Speaker 1 (07:46):
Barkley and Shaq picked up right where they left off,
making fun of each other, making Popeye's Chicken jokes and
telling Barkley to save his fat clothes because he doesn't
believe he's gonna SKay Stinny and every The NBA has
had a really good first two days and add the drama, like.

Speaker 3 (08:03):
Yeah, it's not a positive thing by any means. It's
still something that people are talking about when we could
be and should be talking about Thursday Night football and
of course the World Series World Series Eve. We have
Game one tomorrow, so lots of things to be excited about.
Halloween right around the corner, Halloween parties, your trip to
Spirit Halloween.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
Can I give you an analogy.

Speaker 3 (08:25):
We have all these things that we're excited about that
we thought that the NBA would go under the radar.
We weren't ready for it. And here we are going
to give you an analogy that is bound to hit home.
I know which one you're going with? Can I guess?

Speaker 2 (08:38):
I don't think you do.

Speaker 3 (08:41):
It's that girl you're not expecting a whole lot from
and then she unveils and you're like, WHOA, I wasn't
expecting that.

Speaker 2 (08:46):
But that is a good analogy.

Speaker 1 (08:47):
Have you ever been with a woman where like, she's
probably hot underneath, she takes off her clothes and you're like,
what are you?

Speaker 2 (08:53):
How are you hiding all that? Wow?

Speaker 1 (08:57):
Those pleasant surprises, that's what the NBA is like, he
be surprises. No, No, my analogy is there's ebbs and
flows in all different aspects of life.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
You're a music guy, Danny G. You're a hip hop guy.

Speaker 1 (09:10):
You'd very easily agree if I said hip hop has
had years where yo, there's a ton of hit records,
and then you go through a couple of years where
you're like, it's sort of stinks. Camino, you experienced this
a lot being a rock music guy, they'll get be
like the grunge era, and then after that it was
like rock stunk, and then it sort of came back.
Like music, pop music goes through years where there's a

(09:32):
ton of big pop hits and pop radio stations are trending,
and then all of a sudden, pop music becomes cheesy
and lame. This cycles and music. Dare I say sports
in general right now is better than it's been in
a decade. Baseball, the stars, stars, the rule changes, the

(09:52):
franchise players, Baseball is at an all time high, the
NFL ratings and interest and international, the NFL is hopping
on a different level, and the NBA, I think, is
now really starting to lean on the young stars while
also hitting you with a little nostalgia.

Speaker 2 (10:09):
I think sports right now is peaking. It's the sports renaissance.

Speaker 1 (10:14):
I really think right now, right now, you can't tell
me that sports isn't insanely awesome.

Speaker 3 (10:20):
I'll give you a lamer analogy. I'm gonna one down
your analogy. Why guy will ruin it? No, No, I'm not
trying to one up it. I'm gonna one down it.
We often talk about how we grew up with all
these Disney classics. Right, oh, Pinocchio, snow White. Today's the
anniversary of Dumbo. You want to hear a fun fact?
Not really, Dumbo the only main character of a Disney

(10:40):
movie that never spoke, the only main character named after
Rich Davis.

Speaker 1 (10:44):
Actually, you know it's called the elephants. Name is in Dumbo,
you Dumbo, it's Jumbo Junior.

Speaker 3 (10:50):
It was named after an actual elephant, Jumbo. Yeah see,
I know. But we go up at all these classics, Dumbo, Cinderella,
Sleeping Beauty, Pinochio, and then there was nothing.

Speaker 2 (11:02):
And then the eighties came run.

Speaker 3 (11:03):
You had like the Aristocaps in all this nonsense, right, nothing,
you had nothing forever we lived on the classics, and
then all of a sudden they called it the Disney Renaissance.
We've talked about it, Little Mermaid Beauty in the beat,
Lion Lion, k yank you all sudden boom boom boom
came back and now they've been riding off of that,

(11:25):
and then they fell off again.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
Then it fell off came back again.

Speaker 4 (11:29):
So good thing. They don't make up for it by
raising prices at the parks.

Speaker 3 (11:32):
We might be on the precipice if you want to
include all sports right of a sports renaissance, and Rich
is right because maybe we're seeing social media really starting
to play a positive role in how we view these superstars,
these young superstars, like we got a pretty good idea
of what's going on. We get to know them, we
know their personality, We get greater insight. You don't even

(11:53):
have to watch the games to see the highlights, and
you know these young stars, you identify with them. And dude,
you think I'm a Spurs fan? Absolutely not, But man,
I was glued watching that.

Speaker 4 (12:03):
We are on full time in Philadelphia. Now, imagine waking
up there this morning. They have a new dynamic duo
in the backcourt. Did you see Tyrese Maxey along with
rookie vj Edgecombe Edgecomb thirty four and seven, Maxi forty
and six.

Speaker 2 (12:18):
They got something to be excited.

Speaker 4 (12:19):
The best fans are like what? And then in Chicago
with the Bulls winning the Bears, dub Bears are four
in two, Blackhawks three and two, Bulls one to zero Chicago.
This is the first time since twenty ten that all
three of those teams have a winning record at the
same time.

Speaker 3 (12:34):
Are we on a sports renaissance? Think about it. I
think there's something to be said and people listening like, well,
do you guys work in sports, so of course you're
gonna feel that way. Hey, we got lives, we got kids,
we got problems. I got a pain in the as
teenage daughter. I have a child support payments. These are hassles,
ex wife, I got ex wives.

Speaker 1 (12:52):
I got hassles at AC units that broke. Yeah, sweet
sixteen to pay for. Yeah, I got We got regular lives,
just like anybody girlfriend that's probably waiting for a ring.
So it's not like I'm sorry, did I go too far? No,
it's okay.

Speaker 2 (13:05):
It just builds that relatable sort of thing.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
We got things going on, yet we could stop and
pause and say, wow, man, for this to grab our
attention this way, there's got to be something to it.
So I'm with you on that, Rich I am, and
dare I say, sports media, podcasting, broadcasting like Fox sports
radio is doing really well. That's like one of the
few areas of broadcasting that's really doing well right now.

(13:30):
And I think you're seeing it in baseball, the NBA
having a really good first two days, and NFL speaks
for itself.

Speaker 2 (13:38):
We just love it.

Speaker 1 (13:39):
It's like it's King right, So it's you're getting everything
clicking on all cylinders. It's sort of like a great
team when all the star players are playing well, they
just not.

Speaker 2 (13:48):
Like what the Dodgers are doing right now. That's the
world of sports, the NBA, the.

Speaker 1 (13:51):
NFL, major League Baseball, everyone's everyone's doing their part for
the general sports world.

Speaker 3 (13:57):
I'll tell you what, Rich, that was a amazing positive spin.
I'm a positive guy bro on a terrible scandal that's
going on in the NBA. So yeah, we'll keep you
posted on that because that really is the story, but
we spun it into something nice and positive.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
Chauncea Billips, how much money do you need?

Speaker 3 (14:17):
You're a Hall of Fame NBA former player and coach
of the Trailblazers. This goes back to what Big Mike
said in the kitchen in our pre meeting. Yeah, it's
not about how much money do you need? You guys
are in the NBA. Yeah, But what it might say,
it's an addiction. It's an addiction. It's not about the money.
And that's why, you know, gambling and sports it's always

(14:40):
a touchy conversation.

Speaker 1 (14:42):
But it's a touchy conversation because everyone that's talking about
is Dan Byer. That's covering it, from the athletic to
you know, the Ringer to the volume, all these broadcasting networks, Barstoore,
they're all incahoots it in a good way with all
these gambling companies.

Speaker 2 (14:59):
We're sponsored by Draftking.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
So it's a really interesting time we're in because sports
gambling plays such a big role in our industry.

Speaker 2 (15:06):
Yet something like this pops up and it's like, uhh.

Speaker 5 (15:09):
Yeah, no, there's there does appear to be a conflict
of interest. But I do think that with the popularity,
you're finding more about these things and they have to
be even more strict with their rules and investigations. But
I disagree with the point of like Terry rose Yeer
being addicted to gambling, because.

Speaker 3 (15:28):
That was more about well I guess it could apply
either way to anybody, but go ahead.

Speaker 5 (15:33):
Because I think he's addicted to the money. Like that's
why I do it. Like if Terry was here was
addicted to gambling, he'd be five hundred thousand dollars in
the hole because he stinks better, you know.

Speaker 1 (15:41):
What, going too many parlays. This guy was scheming money.

Speaker 5 (15:45):
Faking an injury is because you want to cash in
and get the money. You're not addicted to faking injuries.
And so that's the point of it is. I think
it's just the point of you know, don't you have
enough money? And it's no, it's never enough for anybody.
It's it's also the point that many have pointed out
is yeah, the top tier guys don't maybe have the

(16:07):
need to do it, or they really have more to
risk to doing it, whereas the lower end people may
look at it as like, what's there to lose if
I can make an extra.

Speaker 1 (16:18):
Yeah, I may only be in the league for one
to two years anyway, let me capitalized. Y.

Speaker 2 (16:22):
Yes.

Speaker 1 (16:22):
But I think as far as the world of gambling,
broadcast networks, podcast networks, all that, I think it is
just uncharted territory. And I think, you know, we're learning.
This is like the wild West, you know, when we
learn things about the Internet or AI and we're like, yeah,
we haven't been here before, so we're sort of making
rules and learning as we go. I think the legalization
of sports gambling and also like legalization of weed, things

(16:45):
that have happened in our lifetime.

Speaker 3 (16:47):
Things that used to be taboo, that were accepted in
our society.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
Yeah, it makes.

Speaker 3 (16:54):
It a conflict of interest in our conversation here, and
I think we need to emphasize the world. It's like rigged,
you know, rigged mafia poker games, rigging seven million dollars
from people, according to this story. And that's only two
years of the investigation. So again, thirty four rests probably
more to come.

Speaker 1 (17:15):
Well, think about when you and I first started becoming buds,
hanging out and hoboken, watching sports together, watching your lame
attempts to pick up women that wanted me instead.

Speaker 3 (17:26):
You mean, when you used to have a solid hairline
and jowl line. You mean those days continue continue when
you were playing buck hunter at the bar, I remember
that with all the women around me while.

Speaker 2 (17:40):
You're sitting by yourself lonely anyway.

Speaker 1 (17:42):
Yeah, but when we were first friends in the early
two thousand six, things that are totally normal and commonplace now,
people smoking weed, taking edibles, gambling, gambling online dating, all.

Speaker 4 (17:56):
The things like you guys are jumping the gun on
our old school topic coming.

Speaker 1 (17:59):
Up, But honestly, you know what, these are things that
could apply to our old school typing later. But the
things that we used to think were like, yeah, you
don't do that gambling with something like you might have
got little sheets from like your friend's dad knows someone
who's a bookie and you're like, oh, I'm gonna do
my parlay on this illegal little sheet. Or you would
be like, yeah, my friend knows a guy that deals weed.

(18:20):
Everything that used to be shady is now like yeah,
I'm gonna do my draft Kings Power parlay and then
on my way home, honey, you're gonna stop and get
some edibles.

Speaker 2 (18:28):
Like it's well, we live in a completely different world to.

Speaker 3 (18:31):
Figure out then once and frong but a dirty word
or an accepted a good thing or a bad thing.
But like with everything, differentiate it and say rig you
gotta be real careful it's rig gambling.

Speaker 1 (18:42):
Oh that's a big difference. That's a big, big difference. Responsibility.
Responsibility is what comes along with all these things. And
again rules are constantly being made. But the two things
I just spoke about, specifically weed and gambling, those are
things that are enjoyable things to many if done responsibly.
It's the idiots that mess things up, right, it's the

(19:03):
people that are irresponsible. It's like remember at school, they
would always be like one kid messed it up for everyone.

Speaker 3 (19:08):
But that's the touchy part of gambling, if you want
to be dealing about it. Some people can't handle It's
like you and I could have a drink every Friday
Saturday night, but some people can't handle that and they
abuse it. I heard I recently heard Drew Barrymore I believe,
talk about how the idea of her just going out

(19:29):
with the gals and having like a glass of wine
just doesn't work for her because she feels that she
would have to have the whole bottle of wine and
another bottle one and some people just don't mentally, just
can't can't handle it. So I think we're learning all
this stuff as we go, and I think that's honestly
the end.

Speaker 2 (19:46):
Solution when you think about all this stuff.

Speaker 3 (19:47):
But not the publicity that the NBA needed on a
really great second day today being the third day of
the NBA, so we focused on the positive. There's a
lot of exciting things that have happened in the past
few days of the NBA. They didn't need this, but
it is the story that we can't ignore. Wemby Yep.

Speaker 1 (20:07):
Some good matchups SGA on Night one did you see
Barkley and Shacklaw.

Speaker 2 (20:13):
I guess at picking up where they left off.

Speaker 1 (20:15):
They even made a montage which I thought was great,
not shying away from the fact that they work for
the mothership now ESPN, where for years Barkley would mock ESPN.
And they put together a montage for Charles and then
he went on this whole like I love working here
and they're like, get out of here, and Charles like,
I think they they handled that great again, Jordan and

(20:38):
Mike Tarico, even though like we said, it's probably one
long interview that's gonna be spread out throughout the year.

Speaker 2 (20:43):
It's been talked about. So the NBA is in the news.

Speaker 3 (20:46):
People are talking, all right, So your thoughts on NBA,
wemby the scandal.

Speaker 1 (20:53):
We'll take your phone calls. So a lot of fun
today bringing it. Let's go Moe and Tempe, thank god? Yeah,
what's up?

Speaker 4 (21:03):
Man?

Speaker 6 (21:04):
Much?

Speaker 7 (21:04):
Man?

Speaker 8 (21:04):
Hey, I gotta get on this, like right now. It's
just that and doing's about just opening up. So right now,
just Poortling who nobody really cares about. So waiting until
it's somebody's favorite team, a big name team, because what
makes me think of last year when jj reddit pade
all five Lakers for the whole second half, that really
made no sense to me. Something got to be going on.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
When a marquee team or a matchup that goes a
weird way in the postseason is exposed, You're right, that's
when this thing becomes.

Speaker 3 (21:33):
Well, that's why this is bad for the NBA, you know,
because you're gonna second guess everything, and they, oh, we've
seen controversy, controversy before when it came to officiating referees.
You know, we've heard rumblings of gambling and things like that.
So anything now moving forward that seems suspect You're like, ah,
there was the uh, there was the picture.

Speaker 1 (21:53):
There was a picture in baseball allegedly, this is all allegible.

Speaker 2 (21:56):
But remember like.

Speaker 1 (21:59):
His first pitch, every time he touched the mound was
always like a terribly out low and outside ball, And
there are people seeing that, there are prop bets for
his first pitch.

Speaker 2 (22:09):
Like, when you start to see stuff like that, it's.

Speaker 3 (22:12):
Like woo, yeah, because you never want to believe that
anything in sports is rigged. You don't want to hear
of that. Yeah, as a fan, you're like, no way,
that's impossible. Did you hear things like this and you're like,
maybe it's not that impossible.

Speaker 2 (22:24):
Why do you say hi to Kelvin in Indianapolis?

Speaker 3 (22:26):
Hey, Kelvin, what's up? You're on the Cavino and Rich show. Yeah,
what's up?

Speaker 6 (22:33):
Hey? How you doing?

Speaker 8 (22:34):
So?

Speaker 9 (22:34):
You don't Rich? Our good show?

Speaker 2 (22:36):
Thanks man, love you.

Speaker 9 (22:38):
I want to say that they're probably going to be
some harsh penalties in place because these guys that were
on there, we were pretty being Chauncey Billups out of
all the people's I thought he.

Speaker 10 (22:50):
Was pretty square and pretty focused and pretty.

Speaker 4 (22:53):
You know.

Speaker 9 (22:53):
So when guys like these, you know, following that temptation,
that means that it's so wide open and so that
debauchery and making money, it's just nobody above reproach.

Speaker 3 (23:05):
Almost we put athletes on a pedestal because they're living
our dream. But they're all imperfect and they fall into
temptations just like anybody else cuts would.

Speaker 1 (23:16):
Sometimes the nicest dudes make a mistake with a woman.
Sometimes someone has a money opportunity and they may do
the wrong thing. People are you know, We're all only human.
You just try to make the best decisions. And Chauncey
Billups oopsy daisy is all you could say.

Speaker 3 (23:33):
Right, It's not even a whoopsie doodle to anoops day
at this point, it is a full on whoopsie.

Speaker 2 (23:37):
I think this is a holy yeah, this is not
a whoopsie.

Speaker 3 (23:42):
And again thirty I've read thirty four rests, and I
also read in New York New York Times thirty arrests,
and I'm I'm pretty certain there'll probably be more names involved,
and I'm sure there's a lot of people shaking in
their in their high tops right now.

Speaker 1 (23:56):
Good one, Let's go to dB and then we'll get
an update. What's up, dan By? This is what I
could tell you. So there were thirty four arrests in all.
There were thirty one people tied to the.

Speaker 5 (24:06):
Gambling or the mafia gambling ring, and there were six
arrests made with the sports gambling, but three people crossed
over into both of them, so you have a total
of thirty four.

Speaker 7 (24:19):
Got it?

Speaker 5 (24:20):
I was checking in my head if I was doing
Cavino math or not. Stopped making sense for a little while.
Do you guys hear this zinger? This is my favorite
part of been playing it all day. From the NYPD
Commission Jessica Tish about Terry Rozier being arrested.

Speaker 2 (24:36):
As the NBA season tips off.

Speaker 3 (24:38):
His career is already benched, not for injury but for
integrity zing.

Speaker 5 (24:44):
Yeah, that so the FBI is saying. Rozero was arrested
for using insider information to bet on seven NBA games
from March of twenty twenty three through March of twenty
twenty four. As for Chauncey Billups Hall of Fame player
Trailblazer's head coach, he not only was busted on some
insider information, but also about the rigged underground poker games

(25:06):
that were backed by the mafia. And do you all
remember Damon Jones, former player and assistant coach.

Speaker 2 (25:11):
He played upway Lebron into Cleveland. Yes, and that's where
this kind of ties in is.

Speaker 5 (25:16):
Jones was indicted on charges from his time as an
unofficial assistant with the Lakers, where the FBI says that
Jones told betters to place bets on the Bucks over
the Lakers in a game in twenty twenty three because
Lebron James was not going to play in the contest.
So Damon Jones, according to the FEDS, had that inside
information and passed it along to his connections to place

(25:39):
those illegal bets. Trailblazers, by the way, named assistant Thiago
Splitter as their interim head coach while Billups is on
leave by the NBA.

Speaker 3 (27:32):
It's a special week World Series. Got Thursday night Bruzball.
Richie still got to give us your picks. Oh, so
you are Basketball's back. We talked about a scandal, but
it's also an anniversary. You know, a lot of great
movies came out in nineteen eighty five, forty years ago.
I was talking about one that you never see homework

(27:53):
assignment for you, buddy boy, The Last Dragon.

Speaker 2 (27:55):
I was telling rich about The Last Dragon.

Speaker 4 (27:57):
Today.

Speaker 1 (27:57):
I watched The Last Dragon. When you watch Chad Powers
on Hulu, have you never seen that?

Speaker 2 (28:02):
No?

Speaker 1 (28:03):
He never saw my good Man the Glow, but you
I've had that quite since eighty five. And Ryan look
at me like I like you, but you look at
me like I missed a legendary movie.

Speaker 2 (28:12):
I get it.

Speaker 1 (28:13):
I'm gonna direct to my feet to Daddy Green's pizza
I for references. I've been friends with him for twenty years. Uh,
you know shown UF I get it. The Hot Girl
That Floats or something like that was.

Speaker 4 (28:23):
More to see.

Speaker 2 (28:23):
The thing is Vanity Vanity.

Speaker 1 (28:25):
I know all the Arcadian was forty years ago as
a time stamp, and we've seen that movie. Don't it
don't sound like a misshush Ank Redemption.

Speaker 2 (28:35):
You need to get more black friends. Okay, I just
said all the time, Now, why you want to hang
out this weekend? Watch Last Dragon.

Speaker 1 (28:43):
That one was more of a cult classic that everybody
sort of loves and talks about, and it was celebrated
this year. But when you think of eighty five, the
biggest movie some people say the perfect movie, yeah, is
Back to the Future and it came out this week.

Speaker 2 (28:58):
Yeah. Now, based on.

Speaker 1 (29:00):
Back to the Future, there's so many layers and wheres
you could go with this. But if you were in
the DeLorean with Doc Emmitt Brown and Marty mcfix going
eighty eight miles per hour one point twenty one jigawatts,
if you had that mister Fusion on full doc you're
trying to tell me you made a time machine out

(29:21):
of a DeLorean. If you went back to nineteen ninety
three when Joe Carter was touching them all? Or was
that ninety two ninety three? I was ninety three. That
was the last time Roberto Alomar o Olarude, you know
that stacked Blue Jays team. If you took it back
to nineteen ninety three, the last time the Blue Jays

(29:42):
were in the World Series, what do you think people
in nineteen ninety three would be most shocked about today?
What has happened between now and twenty twenty five, Between
ninety three and twenty twenty five, where people in the
nineties would be like.

Speaker 2 (29:59):
Wait, what happens? They do this? They do that?

Speaker 1 (30:03):
Like what are the big shocking things that you would
tell someone in ninety three? I know, Joe Carter just
hit a home run, touch them all, Joe, But guess
what else happens?

Speaker 2 (30:14):
Blank? There's so many things that come to mind. Well,
Bill Clinton was president what ninety three to ninety three?
Oh one, Yeah, I think they'd be shocked to hear
those cigar stories and then he took the cigar and in.

Speaker 4 (30:33):
What well think of the movie Back to the Future,
what does he ask him? He asked him, who's President?
So I think one of the first things they would
get a kick out of is Donald Trump, the guy
that tried to start a casino in New Zealand, because
that's what was going on with him in ninety.

Speaker 1 (30:48):
Absolutely, that's why I went to President's I think the
presidents are interesting, well because you had your first black
president Obama and Donald Trump. Like, we've had some interesting
presidential happenings the last you know, thirty years.

Speaker 3 (31:01):
Right, Fortunately, they'd be shocked to hear about some of
the i'd say tragedies, not get them out of the way.

Speaker 2 (31:07):
Yeah, the Twin Towers are gone? What?

Speaker 4 (31:10):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (31:11):
And then there was this one time too where COVID
shut down the world for a few years.

Speaker 2 (31:15):
Yeah COVID.

Speaker 1 (31:16):
Yeah, they we're all trapped in what would you guys
do masks?

Speaker 2 (31:21):
Oh no, we were.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
We were a mask for a year and everyone's on TikTok.
What's TikTok?

Speaker 2 (31:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (31:26):
But what would be the most shocking thing I got
even in sports, Sports Life, whatever, and seven seven ninety
nine on Fox, I got one in nineteen ninety three,
you'd probably be shocked to know that Bruce Jenner became
a woman.

Speaker 2 (31:45):
That's hilarious. That makes me think of.

Speaker 3 (31:48):
You know what, it makes me think of so much
so that makes me think of that meme where who's
whose wedding is it? With some moderate shot? Yeah, and
his groomsmen are a jet.

Speaker 1 (31:59):
Jet and Jenner and somebody else. So what would you
be shocked to find out? And Cosby and Bill Cosby,
what would you be shocked to find out? Let's take
it back to nineteen ninety three till now we got more.
Next Cavino on retch right here on Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 2 (32:16):
Throwing it back.

Speaker 3 (32:23):
Now, Rich, I do have a correction, a retraction of
a Shepherd Smith not sure what happened there won't happen again.

Speaker 2 (32:32):
No, you're definitely not gonna be in the World Series montage.

Speaker 3 (32:34):
When I said that, Back to the Future came out
this week, came out this year at eighty five. This
week we celebrated Back to the Future day.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
Yeah, we celebrated the future because right remember Doc comes
back and he's like, Mario, we got to go to
the future.

Speaker 2 (32:48):
What happened? Doc SNAr? Are you with your kids.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
They went to October twenty first, twenty fifteen, and it's
wild to think far into the future when we were
kids is now ten.

Speaker 2 (32:59):
Years ago, right? Is that a weird thought?

Speaker 4 (33:02):
Right? Flying cars? Remember the shoes that had inflated right
on his feet?

Speaker 2 (33:06):
Oh yeah?

Speaker 3 (33:06):
So based on Back to the Future day and we
celebrated it this.

Speaker 1 (33:10):
Week and yesterday Christopher Lloyd turned eighty seven.

Speaker 3 (33:14):
Everyone's talking about Back to the Future and how great
that movie was and still is classics, stay in the
test of time, the perfect movie. We figured we'd get
into that DeLorean and take it back to the last
time the Blue Jays were in the World Series. The
last time the Blue Jays were in the World Series
was nineteen ninety three. So if someone got knocked in

(33:37):
the head ninety three, woke up today, what would they
be most shocked to find out? That's really what it
comes down to, from ninety three till now. Most shocking
things you mentioned, you know, Caitlyn Jenner and I mentioned
that meme of Rashad what's the.

Speaker 1 (33:53):
Name a mad Rashad's He's getting married.

Speaker 3 (33:58):
His groomsmen are Oj and Bill Cosby, And the OJ
thing happened in ninety four. I remember because I was
graduating high school that was June ninety four, So from
ninety three till that, you'd be shocked. Here, wait, OJ
did what? And Bill Cosby TV's television dad did what.
I'm sorry what happened? So those are two shocking things

(34:19):
based on the pop culture stuff. What else comes to mind?
We open it up to you at eight seven seven
ninety nine on Fox.

Speaker 5 (34:25):
I'll throw this in there, that the Patriots would become
the standard to reach in the NFL.

Speaker 1 (34:30):
YO, because when we were kids, if you got their
helmet out of the quarter machine at the supermarket, you
were like Patriots. They stink st There was like one
year when they got trounced by the Bill by the
Bears in the Super Bowl.

Speaker 2 (34:42):
Besides that, they were like irrelevant as could be. Wow,
that's a good one, Dan, and then they started cheating. Cheez.
Here we go, Ryan, But no, the Patriots being like
the all time.

Speaker 5 (34:55):
And yeah, not even just winning one, but then winning
as many as they did and be the point where
every franchise would like to reach the standard.

Speaker 3 (35:04):
Right, it's like wild to think that, speaking of sports
franchises again, you could tie this into sports, into life
into Whatever eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox We
Get You Involved every Thursday, Elscho going fifty hits. So
you're saying, if you're hanging out with John O Larud
and his helmet, Yeah, Paul Molliner and uh Joe Carter,
Joe Carter, what would they be shocked by?

Speaker 2 (35:25):
Now?

Speaker 4 (35:25):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (35:25):
How about this speaking of the Blue Jays, because that
was the last time they were in the World Series,
Speaking of Canada, I think a lot of people might
be shocked to be like, wait, what happened to the
expos They stopped in two thousand and four, and there's
a documentary about that I think coming soon on Netflix.

Speaker 4 (35:41):
Yeah. Right, And speaking of Blue Jays, how about the
ticket prices there? There was an article today from Toronto.

Speaker 1 (35:46):
Oh that was wildly sad that it would have been
ninety two and ninety three when the World Series when
they had the back to back the ticket press were
like fifty sixty bucks.

Speaker 4 (35:54):
Sixty bucks you could get one of the cheapest seats.
That was like a nosebleed seat there. Yeah, somebody said
they snuck in for seventy bucks I think. And then
now it's a thousand dollars to sneak in there for
the World Series.

Speaker 1 (36:05):
It's insane. And by the way, the percentages when it
doesn't the math don't add up. As I say, the
math dolt math. I got two ones that don't revolve
around sports. I think if you went back to your
nineteen ninety self or someone in the nineties and said, hey,
in the twenty twenties, get this. You know how you're
shy to dance in front of anyone at a school dance.

(36:27):
You go to a wedding, you might be a little
skeptical unless you have a couple of cocktails. Everyone is
going to go on the internet. Oh, by the way,
I'll tell you about the internet later. Everyone's gonna want
to dance and then post the video of themselves dancing.

Speaker 2 (36:41):
It's crazy. The idea that what used to be.

Speaker 1 (36:44):
A shy thing, like I don't know if you want
to see me dance, now people record themselves dancing and
be like, come on, please, everyone watch me dance.

Speaker 2 (36:51):
That's yea.

Speaker 1 (36:52):
The idea of a TikTok dances crazy. It's so hard
to wrap your brain around. Tell a bunch of kids
in a middle school high school dance in the nineties.
Now you're really shy to go talk to a girl
and dance right now, in thirty years from now, everyone's
gonna want to dance in public.

Speaker 2 (37:07):
Crazy.

Speaker 5 (37:07):
I'm gonna steal from a Sebastian Maniscalco bit, but that
you would hide when your doorbell rings, Like back then,
it's yes, yes.

Speaker 2 (37:15):
Somebody's over, somebody's here, Yes, somebody came to see us.

Speaker 3 (37:19):
Bust out the entimates. They oh, yes, so true, because
it's at different time, it's a different world, you know,
since ninety three.

Speaker 2 (37:29):
I got on nineteen ninety three.

Speaker 1 (37:31):
Hey, everyone, you knew that, you know that new thing
people are fiddling around with a little bit the internet. Well,
guess what. Eighty percent of couples aren't going to meet
in person, They're going to meet through the computer.

Speaker 3 (37:42):
The computer. And by the way, yeah, ninety three, nobody
had internet at home. Nobody al Gore hadn't invented it
to that point yet, right.

Speaker 4 (37:52):
First major carrier came out in ninety ninety. Yeah, but
I'm saying like we didn't have we did have. Rich
rich people have it.

Speaker 1 (38:00):
Well, you know, I did the two thousand stuff on
Sirius XM. There's a stat that I think in I
think it was like two thousand to two thousand and one,
four out of ten households had internet access. So we're
talking into the two thousands. People weren't even really locked
into the Internet. So to tell someone in the nineties
that you're gonna be glued to the internet, and I

(38:20):
mean you could tie together with the smartphone, I'd imagine
right like, Hey, you're gonna have a phone in your hand.

Speaker 2 (38:24):
That's all you're gonna You're gonna live by it.

Speaker 4 (38:26):
Think of the phones we had in nineteen nine.

Speaker 3 (38:28):
I got I got the number one answer, and that's
the challenge, the number one answer. I'm sorry, Danagy, I
got so excited about this. I think everybody in ninety
three sort of perverted, creepy fantasy would be something like this.

Speaker 2 (38:41):
Get this.

Speaker 3 (38:43):
You know that hot chick you work with and that
that person over there, Yeah, you probably fantasized about, you know,
seeing what she does in her private time.

Speaker 2 (38:51):
Get this.

Speaker 3 (38:52):
In the future, a lot of these women have only fans,
and you could see you could see your wife's best friend,
you could see your girlfriend's friend.

Speaker 14 (39:00):
Yeah, naked doing all sorts of weird things. Yeah, get this.
You're coworkers and colleagues. Yeah, your your buddy's girlfriend. She
might have an only fans page. It's crazy, man, I'm
telling you, because think about it. We all have the
accessibility of smut in general, the access the things we
didn't have access to before. Like that that hot girl

(39:21):
that works at that story you go to, she didn't
have an only fans back then, and she might.

Speaker 3 (39:28):
Now I'm not advocating for you're trying to subscribing to
this stuff, but like, all right, for example, you try
to tell my girlfriend, right, my girlfriend, Yeah, one of
her best friends has an only fans Yeah. Imagine telling
a guy back in the nineties, Hey, you know your
girlfriend's friend that you think is kind of hot.

Speaker 2 (39:45):
You can see you naked if you want.

Speaker 1 (39:46):
You ever look at it. No, never look me in
the eyes and say that. How could I damn subscribing
to that? I believe I definitely didn't. But the options there, right,
Oh you had back in ninety two, maybe some fake
X ray glasses.

Speaker 2 (40:00):
Well you know what one.

Speaker 1 (40:01):
Last smutty one to know at this you don't have
to go search into your dad's collect I was just
gonna say the idea you tell someone from the nineties, like, yeah,
you don't have to like steal your dad's playboy.

Speaker 2 (40:11):
No.

Speaker 3 (40:12):
And by the way, it's not even about what we
had or what we got in the future. It's also
about what we didn't have, because the movie Back in
the Future painted this picture, like Danny G said, of
flying cars, of sneakers that strap on themselves, of hoverboards,
and we.

Speaker 2 (40:30):
Didn't get any of that.

Speaker 1 (40:31):
Now, I would tell nineteen ninety three you, Danny J
I'd be like, Danny, I'm sorry to tell you. We're
not all wearing silver suits.

Speaker 2 (40:37):
Yeah, yeah, none of that.

Speaker 3 (40:38):
Remember the inflatable suit that Marty had. Yeah, he didn't
get any of that stuff. So, yeah, none of that happened.
Guy from ninety three. Just so you know, let's go
to you, guys, what is the biggest shock? If you
were to confront people in ninety three, the year the
Blue Jays last won it, and told him about twenty
twenty five, what's up Baker in Illinois?

Speaker 7 (40:57):
Hey, in ninety three, if someone said by now you
won't be able to live without your phone, I would
have to say, so, I just can't leave the kitchen table.

Speaker 1 (41:11):
Yeah, how long does that court stretch down?

Speaker 3 (41:15):
Yeah, that would be hard to understand for sure, Like,
wait a minute, what, Dann Bayer. Everybody has personal little
computers with their phones.

Speaker 1 (41:23):
You're a golf guy, and I think one of the
more telling said images is I believe it was a
US opener or a big golf tournament where they showed
from the nineties. Everyone was so locked in and watching
and then they showed one like last year, and everyone's
phone is up, and it's really a sad reflection.

Speaker 5 (41:39):
And there was actually a couple of years ago at
the PGA Championship, this was in at Southern Hills in Tulsa,
there was that scene of somebody hitting a shot and
one guy was holding a beer.

Speaker 4 (41:49):
I don't know if you guys remember this.

Speaker 2 (41:51):
What everyone's like, I want to be that guy.

Speaker 5 (41:52):
And so that guy got you know, the beer company
hit him up. I can't remember exactly what company it was,
but he became a bit of a legend because he
didn't have his phone up at that time.

Speaker 3 (42:02):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (42:02):
I hate that at concerts because in my mind, I'm like,
you're at a concert, enjoy it, watch it, and if
you really want to relive it, there's footage that's going
to be better than your phone.

Speaker 5 (42:11):
Someone well, I was going to say this, how about
just recording something at a concert or show. Back then,
if there was any sort of recording, it was thought
of as taboo or copyright or why are you now?
All that stuff is helping you to try to spread
your music, spread your act.

Speaker 1 (42:29):
We watch rerun on What's Happening and get in a
lot of trouble for that with the Doobie Brothers. Meanwhile,
you go see Taylor Swift with your kid, you know,
it's on TikTok, and everyone's like, oh my god.

Speaker 2 (42:39):
So you do watch black shows.

Speaker 1 (42:43):
Let me tab Ryan my favorite show when I was
a kid two two seven.

Speaker 4 (42:46):
Oh hey, you guys, give TCL Jack k was one
of my first black crushes at least eternal too real.

Speaker 2 (42:55):
You judge me.

Speaker 4 (42:55):
Rich tomorrow for your big TV Game of the week.
You're gonna give TCL props. Yeah, think big ass TVs
that took three people to move everig projection. Yeah yeah.
If you saw a screen that looks like it should
be inside a sporting venue and you and somebody told
you no, you could have that in your house right
now for a few hundred bucks.

Speaker 1 (43:14):
Bro, the one rich kid in town that you might
have went to his house to watch the Tyson fight
in a WrestleMania Remember the kid that had like it
was a It wasn't a flutch, it just had a
flat front. But the backpack, yes, it was like it
took four men to carry and they had.

Speaker 2 (43:27):
To be strong. So the shocking things.

Speaker 3 (43:29):
We're taking it back to ninety three, the last time
the Jay's were in the World Series Game one tomorrow.
What are the biggest changes from then till now? If
you were to tell somebody back in ninety three, Let's
not take all the good answers. Let's go back to
the phones eight seven to seven ninety nine, Fox, Brian
and Kentucky.

Speaker 2 (43:45):
What's up, hey, Brian?

Speaker 9 (43:47):
Yeah, Hey, I think the biggest shot from nineteen ninety
three is that a beer and a brat at the
ballpark cost thirty six dollars.

Speaker 3 (43:56):
Yeah, that would definitely be a very shocking moment. Like
I'm sorry, what because when we hear how cheap things
were back in the day, it's baffling, right, So, yeah,
that would be a major shock.

Speaker 2 (44:07):
That's a really great answer.

Speaker 1 (44:08):
Danny, Can you do me a favorite? I just don't
have a computer in front of me. Can you look
up the price of coffee, like a Starbucks. It was
Starbucks even around in ninety.

Speaker 2 (44:15):
Ninety three, maybe in Seattle.

Speaker 5 (44:18):
Well you didn't watch Sam's video he sent us yesterday,
because that was the whole bit of the guy in
the nineties.

Speaker 4 (44:22):
Yeah, Starbucks. Yeah, but what year was it night it
was two dollars and eighty eight cents.

Speaker 1 (44:28):
Yeah, I guess it's still it's gone up three times.
But the idea of a six dollars coffee.

Speaker 2 (44:32):
Yeah, that's ridiculous.

Speaker 1 (44:33):
Yeah, but I'm trying to think of the price point
thing is interesting. You're right, because like what would you
be shocked by? Because remember our grandparents couldn't understand how
you buy bottled water. It's water, Like is there something
that Like in the nineties, we'd be like, wait, what
are you.

Speaker 2 (44:44):
Pay for now?

Speaker 4 (44:45):
I want to have the price of a house yet
that And I was going to say the other day,
Brenda's been wanting to go to Disneyland really bad to
take CoA And she was telling me how back in
the day she bought season passes and it was like
one hundred and ninety dollars for the whole year. It's
over two hundred dollars, right, now to get in for one.

Speaker 3 (45:03):
Day, from just from ninety three till now and you
know not to well, I guess it ties things together. Music.
We were talking music and computers. Now the DJ became
the rock star. It's not that rock bands don't exist anymore,
but for the most part, the DJs were the rock

(45:23):
star for a good ten years in the early two
thousands till somewhat recently. If you had a computer, you're
a DJ. You're doing anything. And the fact that we
could all make music not at the studio but on
a computer, that would be mind blasting to people. You
don't need to go into a big time studio to
make music. People are farting out music from their basement
left and right. How about everybody turned into a DJ,

(45:46):
everyone turned into a host, meaning a podcaster.

Speaker 5 (45:49):
In the in the media world, but also with prices.
How about that getting a dollar on the wheel of
the prices right, is still only one thousand dollars?

Speaker 4 (45:56):
Like that has stayed the same thirty two years later, Like.

Speaker 1 (46:00):
I should think of arizona iced Tea, not the Arizona
Ied team, but Eddies guy.

Speaker 2 (46:05):
Arizona iced t has stayed the same.

Speaker 1 (46:07):
Still a dollar, it's really funny, I call, I'm not
saying a world daddy stacks here. Do you guys ever
watch some game shows and how the money is just
way low compared to others. Like to me, I need
the prize on a game show to be like a
million dollars for me to be intrigued, like, oh my god,
this guy or this woman might win a million dollars.
You watch Wheel of Fortune, It's like Jessica walks away

(46:28):
with twenty one thousand dollars, like she went through all
that effort to make twenty grand.

Speaker 2 (46:32):
It's like the first question a millionaire. No like to agreed?

Speaker 4 (46:36):
It doesn't apps Like, By the way, guys, the average
price of gas for a gallon of gas a dollar
eleven in ninety three.

Speaker 2 (46:43):
Yep, damn that's crazy, dude.

Speaker 4 (46:47):
And if the math math, that means it should be
two dollars and forty cents right now.

Speaker 1 (46:51):
Crap, you know, I'll give you one. You know, I
was thinking of like my college girlfriend in the late eighties.
I'm the late eighties, late nineties. I was in college
in ninety eight and I remember my freshman year, I
did some long distance. I had to get calling cards,
and I remember spending like buying twenty dollars calling cards
and be like, yeah, I got you know, I have

(47:11):
a certain sixty minutes on a calling card. And then
when you got your cell phone free nights and weekends.
The way we had to communicate with people to tell
someone in the nineties. Now you could talk to anyone
around the world on video for free. You just need
to have the Internet somewhere and you could video call
anyone around the world.

Speaker 3 (47:28):
Peewe Herman on Pee's Playhouse. He invented It's true story.
Back to the Calls eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. Yeah,
the thought of FaceTime, that's honestly from a person of
the nineties. Yeah, that is like subjets and stuff for real.
Let's go to Brian and Kentucky. Brian, you're on the
Cavino and Rich show again. We're just getting you ready

(47:50):
for the Blue Jays. They're back in it. But the
last time they were there, this is what was going on.

Speaker 2 (47:56):
Who we got.

Speaker 4 (47:58):
We talked to Brian. Let's go to Bill.

Speaker 2 (48:00):
Hey, Billy, Bill, We'll tell you Bill.

Speaker 10 (48:06):
I would say. One of the big shocks is that
then America's team, the Dallas Cowboys have become basically irrelevant,
and the Kansas City Chiefs are now basically America's team.

Speaker 2 (48:16):
That is a good one.

Speaker 1 (48:17):
Tell someone in ninety three, you know, we're in the
middle of this crazy Cowboys dynasty. This is it because
after this they'll win one more in ninety six, but
after that it's over for the next twenty five thirty years.
You'd be like, really, the Cowboys, they don't even get
to the super Bowl for real?

Speaker 4 (48:33):
What you call the Chiefs America's team though, I mean.

Speaker 2 (48:36):
They do have Travis Kelcey and Taylor Swift as their
face piece, and they're getting there.

Speaker 3 (48:41):
Uh, Kevin in Ohio, you're on the CNR show Old
School in fifty hits.

Speaker 2 (48:45):
We do this every Thursday, guys.

Speaker 10 (48:49):
I love your show. It's just awesome, especially because I think.

Speaker 7 (48:51):
I'm around the same age as you guys.

Speaker 2 (48:53):
Yep.

Speaker 10 (48:54):
So it was all right, I got three three okay.

Speaker 2 (48:56):
Yeah, go ahead, man shot off.

Speaker 7 (48:58):
All right.

Speaker 10 (48:59):
The first one the m and MTV means nothing.

Speaker 1 (49:03):
Yeah that in fact, they're shutting down mtvs around the
world and different markets and everything.

Speaker 2 (49:06):
So yeah, MTV came and went.

Speaker 7 (49:08):
Yeah, that's so sad that Tom Cruise looks.

Speaker 2 (49:11):
Exactly the same, he's still doing it.

Speaker 15 (49:16):
And and the big one.

Speaker 9 (49:17):
I don't know about you guys, but I played Sega
Genesis Madden, right, and I was told multiple times you're
never gonna get.

Speaker 16 (49:23):
Paid for playing video games.

Speaker 15 (49:25):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (49:27):
That's a good one, right, the fact that, yeah, you
could make money gaming.

Speaker 3 (49:30):
And you know what he made me think of. He
made me think of. You know what teachers would tell
us back then, You're not going to have a calculator
in your pocket, Like, yeah, guess what.

Speaker 2 (49:37):
Guess what, miss Slippy, we have to play in our pocket.

Speaker 1 (49:41):
Tom Cruise looks the same, our buddy Kurt, always working
hard for our affiliates.

Speaker 2 (49:46):
Oh yeah, he said. Uh, I don't know if I
should say.

Speaker 1 (49:48):
He said, Uh, wasn't that around the time the ce
Allison Viagra came out?

Speaker 8 (49:53):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (49:54):
Is that around that time?

Speaker 4 (49:55):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (49:55):
Let me look that up, like, just that's a that's
a game.

Speaker 4 (49:57):
Changer in the world. Would be the expert on that,
call him out.

Speaker 3 (50:03):
I Love You came out in ninety eight. Yeah, it
was approved by the FDA in nineteen ninety eight.

Speaker 4 (50:09):
Viagra.

Speaker 3 (50:09):
Yeah, that's when Rafael Palmerow was hitting all those home runs,
didn't your brother, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (50:15):
My brother was little in ninety eight.

Speaker 3 (50:17):
He's like six six years old, right, And because you
would see all these Rafael Palmaro Viagra commercials, he thought
they make you hit home runs, they helped you score,
So in a way he was right. But uh yeah,
so Palmarrow was the one of the spokesman originally. So
that was ninety eight. So Kurt's right. Let's say, how

(50:38):
to Derek and Philly.

Speaker 4 (50:40):
What's up?

Speaker 16 (50:40):
Derek?

Speaker 6 (50:41):
Hey, going, let y'all show thanks man.

Speaker 1 (50:44):
Well, what do you think would blow your mind if
you if someone told you what's going on today in
the nineties.

Speaker 6 (50:50):
Well, I have a crazy story to tell you real quick. Yeah,
in nineteen ninety three, I was in.

Speaker 9 (51:01):
Didn't want to plan to go.

Speaker 6 (51:02):
To mont in Canada, and Mitch Williams through that pitch
and I was teased the whole time I was there
because I had a professional fight in Monton, Canada in
nineteen ninety three.

Speaker 2 (51:15):
That's all.

Speaker 6 (51:17):
It's crazy, and that's just too crazy.

Speaker 1 (51:20):
Then you're a Philly guide, Derek, I see from Philly.
Not a good day for Mitch Williams. No, let's say
I had a Jim and Charlie. What's up Jim?

Speaker 2 (51:27):
Hey, Jim Hey guys.

Speaker 12 (51:30):
How are you?

Speaker 2 (51:31):
Oh hey, Jim, how are you? Man?

Speaker 12 (51:32):
Hey? I got two quick ones, yes, sir, first and
first mostly show hey Tony.

Speaker 4 (51:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 12 (51:39):
Then and then inspired by Danny G's T shirt. The
prevalence of pro sports in Las Vegas.

Speaker 1 (51:46):
That's a great one with Danny. Thanks for watching the
YouTube feed. Jim, Well, the Las Vegas ready to think
that there'd be you know, baseball coming to Vegas, Football's
in Vegas, NBA's coming to Vegas, Hockey's in Vegas.

Speaker 4 (51:58):
Yes, speaking of gambling and maybe scandals down the road,
that's why we heard there would never be pro sports
in that city.

Speaker 1 (52:04):
Yeah, that is that's a good one. Vegas being Uh
you know what, Ryan, I know you're a wrestling fan
like I am. Did you ever watch that wrestle Mania
nine documentary about when Vega when they had WrestleMania at Caesar's.

Speaker 2 (52:18):
Uh nothing to do.

Speaker 1 (52:20):
It's like an hour and a half documented where it's
worth the watch, right, and they talk about how Vince
took a big shot trying to do that.

Speaker 2 (52:25):
It was a cluster f until the very end.

Speaker 1 (52:27):
But that you forget that in the nineties, Vegas wasn't
the go to it is today, like, oh yeah, doing
in Vegas like Vegas. We watch Vegas become what it
is now. In the nineties, it was still iffy for
any that was around the time where fights started to
go to Vegas. Like before the eighties and nineties, Vegas
was nothing like that.

Speaker 3 (52:45):
A lot of fights were in Atlantic City too, right,
it was all over the place. Based on Jim Thanks
for to Call Jim Thanks everybody eight seven seven ninety
nine on Fox, you know, shocked about the franchises and
what happened back to the future to predicted that the
Cubs would win the twenty fifteen World Series against the
who do you remember.

Speaker 1 (53:03):
It was like Miami or the Miami Gators. Yeah, so
there is no Miami Gators. We were off by year
with the Coveyes without that's pretty.

Speaker 3 (53:09):
Cool, right, But the Cubs did win, just not when
you thought based on the movie. So if you could
take it back to ninety three, what else would you
be shocked?

Speaker 1 (53:16):
I go one more and then we'll take all your
feedback on the other side and then we'll talk some NFL.
The simple fact that we could all be lazy bums,
sit on our ass, go on our phone and order
something and it'll be at your front door in less
than twenty four hours. That is wild, the idea of
Amazon delivering something to your doorstep. It really is like

(53:40):
you could be like, you know what I need, Colonne,
you know the notebooks for my kid and uh, you know,
a new pillowcase and they'll be in the same box.

Speaker 2 (53:48):
What about blockbusted video? Is this still around?

Speaker 4 (53:51):
So when you said lazy sit on your ass, I
thought you were going to say, oh, zempic.

Speaker 1 (53:55):
Oh you could do that too. How you can lose
weight by just injecting yourself.

Speaker 4 (53:58):
Of this nineties? That was my I'm doing weight watchers.

Speaker 1 (54:01):
Yeah, you know what, We'll take the rest of your feedback,
a lot of great answers.

Speaker 2 (54:05):
Thank you guys for all the feedback.

Speaker 1 (54:06):
Love hanging with you, Dan Bayer and the Fox Sports
Radio Guillotine League has been the most fun I've ever
had doing fantasy fun. Honestly, thank you so much, because

I'm like this week to week is awesome.

Speaker 5 (54:24):
So honestly glad to have you, and I know Cavino
wishes the season was a little bit longer than it
was he got screwed because the Bills were so good
against the Jets, right.

Speaker 2 (54:34):
I was like, no, second again, I was the second
cut they killed the Jets.

Speaker 5 (54:38):
You had Josh Allen and maybe James Cooker he's out out.

Speaker 2 (54:42):
Yeah, but yeah, I just I just uh.

Speaker 1 (54:44):
No. One likes to hear about other people's fantasy teams.
But let me tell you the fact that I have
Christian McCaffrey and Derek Henry now is my two running backs.

Speaker 2 (54:50):
If I don't win, I don't know what to tell you.

Speaker 1 (54:53):
All Right, let's go to your phone calls going back
to the nineties and a reminder, we are doing it
live from the Fox Sports Radio studio.

Speaker 3 (54:59):
For over forty years, tire Iraq has been helping customers
find the right tires for how, what and where they drive.
Ship fast and free back by free road hazard protection
with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation, ti iraq,
dot Comway tire buying should be again. It's World Series EVE.
So we're taking you back to nineteen ninety three. It's
Back to the Future week. Yesterday was Back to the

(55:20):
Future day, right, Oh, they was a couple days ago.
I was twenty first St. Christopher Lloyd's birthday, so that's
also very special. So if you can get back in
that dolore and go back in time to ninety three,
the last time the Jay's were in the World series,
what would someone in ninety three be shocked to find out?

Speaker 2 (55:35):
Today?

Speaker 3 (55:36):
Before we go to the phone calls and wrap this
up eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox, get this,
I would say, back to ninety three.

Speaker 1 (55:43):
Yeah, get this, dude from ninety three. There's been a
booty explosion in our culture. Men care more about boobs
and get this, non on boobs, No, na, no, everybody's
got those now. But now even white girls got booties.
Wait what hew, I don't know, squats, plastic surgery everybody.

Speaker 2 (56:04):
There's booties everywhey moy, boody body rocket everywhere.

Speaker 4 (56:07):
In fact, as a song by a guy named Sparks. Well,
remember ninety two was Sir Mix Alive. But the white
girls having the booties with surprise the.

Dude from that right, I don't know what happened, but
you know, workouts, change, diets changed, something happened, and man,
and yeah, and get this, there's something called yoga pants.
So that's something. And you know what I would say too, Hey,
you remember Suzanne Summers. Yeah, I remember Suzanne Summers Three's company, right, yeah,

(56:35):
get this. Unfortunately she passed away in twenty twenty three,
but she's still around via artificial intelligence.

Speaker 7 (56:42):
What.

Speaker 2 (56:43):
Yeah, Yeah, she's still around. She's a clone.

Speaker 4 (56:46):
Yeah, and Tony Hawk looks like Stanley Roper.

Speaker 2 (56:49):
Yes, what's up?

Speaker 5 (56:51):
I find it interesting that Cavino has brought up viagra,
He's brought up butt implants. Yeah, he's brought up Onlyfansney
and he says, I'm the guy on the show. It's
all peppered threw out.

Speaker 3 (57:05):
But well, you know what, when I go back to
ninety three, I was a major pervert. So I'm just
trying to tell that guy. Yeah, all the surprises of today.

Speaker 2 (57:14):
You know what.

Speaker 1 (57:14):
Besides what I would tell them, I would say, when
you get a chance, you might hear of something called
bitcoin by like one hundred dollars worth when it when
it first comes out, and you'd be a billionaire. All right,
let's say hi to all you guys. Rapid Fire will
start with Mike in Minnesota. What's up, Mike?

Speaker 16 (57:31):
Hey, aw, you.

Speaker 10 (57:31):
Guys doing a Thanks for taking a call. I really
appreciate you.

Speaker 7 (57:35):
Guys.

Speaker 2 (57:35):
Oh, no, pro man, I appreciate you.

Speaker 4 (57:36):
What's up?

Speaker 10 (57:37):
Yeah, you can't crack me up. If I could go
back to ninety three, I would tell all my buddies
that in twenty twenty five, the Biking still haven't won
a Super Bowl, and I would stick around because you
know why, I'm gonna want to watch him, watch them
all crap your pants?

Speaker 2 (57:52):
Right, So funny Leon and mississipp what's up Leon?

Speaker 15 (57:57):
Hey, guys, I'm going back to ninety three walking up someone,
and I guess what. Indiana and Vandy ranked number two
and number ten in the polls. They're gonna tell me, Hey,
there's no big deal.

Speaker 8 (58:08):
They always been good in basketball, No, dude, in football?

Speaker 15 (58:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (58:12):
You know what that?

Speaker 4 (58:14):
What is that?

Speaker 2 (58:16):
Kent in Maine? What's up Kent?

Speaker 8 (58:19):
Hey? Guys?

Speaker 16 (58:20):
If I had to go back to ninety three and
uh talk to someone, I would say, hey, do you
know that guy that was given directions to Kevin McAllister
and home alone lost in New York? He becomes president
of the United States?

Speaker 2 (58:34):
Wait, Donald Trump, the investor? You know what would that
be the most shocking besides.

Speaker 4 (58:43):
Yeah, now you would be the number one in right.

Speaker 1 (58:46):
I think Jenner I think I think that might be
too funny, and it's not trying to be like all,
it's honestly that he was on the cover of a
Wheaties box.

Speaker 2 (58:56):
He was known as like just a you know, Bruce
Jenner was you know a name. So that's right. We
actually interviewed Bruce and he was like a hell of
a dude. That's right.

Speaker 4 (59:05):
I like you said at the start of this, OJ
would have to be right up there.

Speaker 1 (59:08):
Yeah, OJ is a good one. Not a good one,
but you know what I mean. Cosby and Oj that
that a madrashad As you said that meme.

Speaker 2 (59:14):
Those were his. That's a true meme.

Speaker 3 (59:16):
By the way, he when he was married to Alishashad
of The Cosby Show, his best men were OJ Simpson
and Bill Cosby.

Speaker 1 (59:29):
Oopsie's all right, Kent, thank you. Let's go to Joe
in Pennsylvania. What's up, Joe?

Speaker 7 (59:34):
Hey, guys love the show?

Speaker 2 (59:36):
Oh thanks.

Speaker 16 (59:36):
I'm going to say, how about Michael Jordan quitting basketball
and playing baseball?

Speaker 1 (59:41):
Yeah, and get this, he's then going to come back
after that and win three more now, so much to
fit in the next like five minutes before you get
out of here. I want to say hello to our
buddy Rob in Texas. Listening in San Antonio. He said,
I missed the beginning of your nineteen ninety three discussion.

Speaker 2 (01:00:00):
But what would you be shocked by? Is one topic.

Speaker 1 (01:00:04):
He goes, I would love to go back and unfortunately
tell people like Lane Staley and Kurt Cobain and Chris
Cornell and Scott Wiland, like, please take care of yourself.
You have so much more to give Rock Legends, right
for sure. But he also he's down in San Antonio.
He said, so much talk of the impact Hakim Olajuan
has had on wemby training him this past summer. He

(01:00:25):
spent a lot of time taught him, uh, the dream
shake and all these other moves that made Hakim Olajuan great.
So imagine if he absorbs even more from Hakim olajuwon.

Speaker 3 (01:00:35):
Oh my god, we're seeing greatness. And by the way,
we had so many phone calls about our last discussion,
but Pun intended we were at a time the lines.

Speaker 4 (01:00:45):
Were still loaded. And by the way, Rich, we talked
about it during the scandal conversation, you were saying, how
you could walk into a dispensary now they're so upscale.
You pushed a stroller into one one side Never a
Missouri friend called and he said that that's the biggest
change in his mind was that he had to like
be on the d L back in the day and
find a dealer. And now you can just walk in

(01:01:08):
what looks like an AT and T phone store exactly.

Speaker 3 (01:01:11):
Chime in with your answers at Covino and Rich at
Fox Sports Radio. I want to thank you guys for participating.
But dude, Thursday.

Speaker 1 (01:01:18):
Night Foosball, I gotta give my quick quarterback thought and then
I'll give you a pick for tonight.

Speaker 2 (01:01:22):
But joe Flacco, maybe you know what, maybe we talk
about this more tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (01:01:26):
But Friday's world is Jim packed Flacco talking about dad life.
And there was a funny clip floating around taking a
listen to Joey Flacco.

Speaker 4 (01:01:35):
I tell people all the time.

Speaker 17 (01:01:36):
I mean, I used to see guys sitting at a
bar by themselves or you know, just sitting by themselves
eating and grabbing a little meal, and I'm like, man,
I feel so bad for that guy. You almost want
to go join them. And now I realized, like that
dude was in heaven, you know what, And not to
say that's that's obviously not what I want. I'd rather
be at home, sitting at the dinner table with my

(01:01:56):
kids and hearing what the hell they were talking about
all day. But if you have to do it, then
you might as well take advantage of it, So you know,
just little things like that.

Speaker 1 (01:02:03):
Yeah, and you know, I just thought it was super relatable.
Joe Flacco. Listen, he's a guy like our age. He's
a forty year old dude, right. And I saw meme
once that it goes along with that. It said my
two favorite places to be with my kids and not
with my kids, because both things can be true. You
could love being a dad and want to be around
them all the time, but you know, it's also awesome
that random one or two day business.

Speaker 2 (01:02:24):
That's why you have like five different softball teams you
play on. Bro.

Speaker 1 (01:02:28):
Guess what I'm doing tonight. I'm coaching my daughter's softball
from four thirty, right. I run there right after the
show four thirty to six. Then I'm gonna grab a
dinner with the kids, and then you know where I go.
Dad goes to play softballs. That why our dads went
to the Nudi bar all the time. Yeah, but I'm
a reform dancea hall, so I don't go to the
NUDI bar. I go to the softball field. So yeah,
I just think all dads and moms need their time.

(01:02:50):
So I think, as Joe Flacco said, both things can
be true. You could want to spend all your time
with your kids, but at the same time be like,
you know what else I love I don't know, going
on a business trip for one or two two days
and sitting at the bar at the hotel and having
a burger by myself.

Speaker 2 (01:03:04):
Peace of mind. There's something to be said about going out. Hey,
I love being a dad.

Speaker 1 (01:03:08):
I coach multiple days a week, but you know what,
I also love golfing and being away from everyone for
a few hours.

Speaker 2 (01:03:14):
It's allowed. It's normal, guys, You're supposed to feel that way.
Minnesota at Los Angeles.

Speaker 1 (01:03:19):
Who you got as much as I want to kiss
ask as the boss of the Vikings fan, I just
think the Vikings they're gonna regroup next year and be
a force again. But this year, just I know they're
three and three and you could say, dude, it's way
too early to count out a team, but eh, in
La Chargers win, I don't know if they cover the
three and a half it might be a field goal game.

Speaker 2 (01:03:38):
Who knows. All right, we'll see you guys next time,
are Weba there you baby, to see you in the
over Promised Land. Let's go
