(01:28):
up the chat man say hello. I'll say hi. Now
the chattiest guy I know. Now's your opportunity. If you
remember Vladdy Junior did his Yankees lose hit it, I
was sam It Yankee Yankees. Now is your chance to
blue jay Hey, Daddy d.

Speaker 2 (01:55):
Flatty's my boy. Let's say don't blue Jays.

Speaker 1 (01:59):
Hey Daddy yanky for you.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
I don't even want to rub it in.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
I feel this low class ye because I can't tell
you that I was rooting for the Blue Jays because
I wasn't, but I was pulling for them. But I'm
very happy to see the Dodgers win again because and
we'll talk about it and things that make you go.
You just talk out to both sides of your mouth.
You can't pull for someone then hope someone else wins.
I think it's great for baseball. Dodgers won. I was

(02:25):
pulling for the Blue Jays. I love seeing the battle.
I love seeing unlikely heroes like Ernie Clement break hit
records and all these dudes come through, and Vladdie played big.
But the Dodgers are saving baseball. So the question in itself,
are they ruining baseball or saving baseball? No, they're full
of stars that come through. They're a great, great team,

(02:45):
and I tip my Yankee hat to both teams. Congrats
two in a row. They're they're starting a dynasty. And
I mean they won in twenty twenty, so you could
say three in that many years. That's sort of a dynasty.
I mean I count that year. Of course, I'm not
one of those you know, COVID years don't count. It
absolutely counts, but it's a little less. No. I think
it counts though. But what a weekend. And I felt

(03:08):
if you enjoyed it, I found myself really pulling for
the Dodgers. Now, listen, don't get it twisted like kids
are on. Don't get it twisted like Jayden, like Jayden's elbow.
Oh that's too soon, bro, that's a controversy in itself.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
Too soon, Bro, I'm sorry.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
Do we all believe in load management and football? Now
we given giving up? I don't get like all the
problems with dan Quinn keeping him in, we're just giving
up now in football. I think the Broncos prove recently
you don't give up. I apologize for that, but don't
get it twisted. I'm a Mets fan, but I did
find myself finding this team is so likable. And I

(03:47):
said it the other day the same way I fell
in love with the Mets as a New York kid
in the eighties when it was Darryl Dwight, Keith Hernandez,
Gary Carter, Ray Knight. It was a Honestly, I can't
blame my kids stars like Colin would say, Stars, Stars, Stars.
There should be a drinking game for how many times

(04:09):
Colin says stars in his show, you'd be drunk within
the first half hour Stars Stars, So the same way
I loved all those characters in the eighties as a
little boy. How can I blame my son who lives
in Los Angeles? Who's five gonna be six? I mean,
is anyone really mad at your son? No? But I'm saying,
like blaming them, no, but I'm saying he's fine as
a as a dad when he's like dad. I like

(04:32):
the Mets, but I like the Dodgers too, Dude. When
I was five, I liked eating my boogers too. It
doesn't matter. He's fine, he'll figure it out. We got
to like buy bottom a little Mookie bets Jersey, so
we had a good time. Now we're gonna go over
all the things that made you go hmmm from the
World Series from Week nine to the NFL. I don't
want to be I know Jay Stu from The Gottleep

(04:52):
Show hates when people talk about time flying, But can
you believe next week we're about to enter week ten,
like we're more than halfway there. When we're further along
than bon Jovi, we'll be broadcasting live from the super
Bowl before you know it, but before we get everybody
involved on on Monday, Delf way there, we're like more
than that, we're three fourths of the way there. I

(05:12):
want to congratuate Danny G went up super producer, Danny G.

Speaker 3 (05:17):
I feel like I aged ten years watching that World Series.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
Dude, I don't blame you. It was fantastic. Ioa, Sam,
I know you're a Dodgers fan. Congrat it was stressful.
Sam's on the ones and two's Botty and Lee are
on the videos, and Monsey, congratulations to you too. Thank
you who let off the nine ending with a strikeout
was a kik. It was and he swung at that

(05:40):
low outside slider. He swung at two pieces of crap pitches.
I'll be honest, Danny, not gonna lie to you, because
my kids are pulling for the Dodgers, and I have
way more Dodgers friends than Blue Jay's friends. So I
felt myself really pulling for you guys. After Kei k
swung at some trash pitches, you know, you get that
feeling of like, yeah, it's over. It's not over, but

(06:01):
it's over. Hoffman team lights out, you know, and Hoffman
had been lights out. I really, in my mind tough
on himself too. You know, it's not his fault. I mean,
we were just.

Speaker 3 (06:11):
Praying that Rojas would get on base, like hit a single. Absolutely,
that's how we know Miggie Miggi's not a home run hitter.

Speaker 4 (06:18):
I expected the hit after him was o tawny and
did he pop out like just missing.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
It was like you would have thought it would have
been the other way, you know what I mean. But
when when Rojas hit that ball, were you guys in disbelief?
I mean, he's not a home run hitter. Did you
feel like it was Perry seven career home runs? I
believe right, he hadn't got a hit still. I think
it was like early September his last home run.

Speaker 3 (06:43):
Like it is his only one, and he hadn't been
in the lineup for like twenty five days before Game six.

Speaker 4 (06:48):
He went in the lineup for defense, you know what
I mean, to play that second base to get the
guy out at home if he needed to make that throw.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
I but right away when he hit it, though, it
looked like it was gone. Yeah, because he's stepped into right.

Speaker 4 (07:01):
Yeah, because there's other home runs where you're waiting, right,
is it gonna take off or is it gonna die?

Speaker 1 (07:05):
Like we see them a lot here in La. Yes,
the Marine Layer, But immediately you're like, that's gone. And
did you see what he Roberts said after the game
where he found out just minutes before he hung out
with Poppy a Rod, Jeter, and Burkhart. He was telling
a story about how Rojas's wife because again props to
Dave Roberts for putting in his guy, believing in him.

(07:26):
Even Kevin Malar said, I think Rojas is gonna have
a big moment tonight. Like there were so many crazy
predictions about Rojas doing well, but Rojas's wife said, listen, Miho, listen, Papa,
tonight's your night. Believe in yourself. You're gonna hit a
home run tonight. And I think Rojas's response was like,
I haven't hit a home run in months, Like it's

(07:47):
not gonna happen. She's like, you're gonna hit a home
run tonight, and sure or not? I mean, our wives
just say things to make people feel nice, like I'm sure,
Daddy g and give You know, your wives say that
you're like the best I've ever had. We know that
sometimes there's exaggerations. It's a nice st there's more to
the story. You don't dump on it. I think she
believed in it. She had a premonition. You know, we're
talking people of faith here, you know, and you get him,

(08:08):
and he went out there and he did it.

Speaker 3 (08:10):
Man Rich and wives manifested getting us.

Speaker 2 (08:14):
Dave Roberts.

Speaker 1 (08:15):
One of the first things he did was he thanked
the wives of the Dodgers. I thought that was so
cool because it's so true. In fact, if you missed
that part, hit it. I was saying, I want to
give a shout out to the wives.

Speaker 5 (08:27):
The wives are the players, the coaches, front office.

Speaker 1 (08:31):
You ladies are the clue, the foundations, and everybody back
in that life.

Speaker 2 (08:36):
You better cancel work class because we got a pride
on Monday.

Speaker 1 (08:41):
And every great man is a great woman. And I
do believe that you see these superstars come together because
they have great support from a great support system. And
I think that was really cool. And that Roja story
is a sort of under the radar story where his
wife was really hyping him up about it. I felt
so happy for him, and I love how Dave. I

(09:01):
love how Dave Roberts became a hip hop DJ. For
a second, he was giving shout outs, some big ups.
Shout out some big ups to the wife he play
don't forget.

Speaker 3 (09:08):
After Game five, I sent you guys the story about
how Rojas was the last player on the dugout steps
for the Dodgers after that horrible loss, and he did
not want to go into the locker room with the
rest of his teammates. He was soaking it up. This
is his last season and he was super upset. You
could tell how much he cares about the game of baseball.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
Yeah, from that huge moment in Game six, though, again,
I feel like that fire that they all shared together
with that kyk double play in his scoop. From that
moment on, they played with that same fire, and I
think that really changed the entire rest of the series.
That scoop he made in Game six, the infield in
the home run. I mean, Miguel Rojas had a series, dude,

(09:52):
so many huge moments would go on all day. That
bare handed play to me, to me, the thing that
gets under the radar, like a few notes that we
gotta get to the NFL. Don't worry if you're a
big football fan, there's plenty of time over the next
two hours. Or if I even got some Halloween questions.
Some observation, things that made me go, in fact, rich,

(10:12):
why are we making the people wait? We do it
every Monday, but it's a very special World Series slash
Week nine of the NFL. Anything you observed this weekend,
Things that made you go hmm, Things that make you
go things that make you go.

Speaker 2 (10:30):
We do it every money Monday.

Speaker 1 (10:31):
Any observations you made, Let's get it going eight seven
seven ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven ninety nine
on Fox or hit us up at Covino and Rich.
My top three, I have three blaring things that stand
out to me. Casey Caseum, give us a countdown at
chap three, coming in at number one. I'm like Spider Harrison,
Casey Caseum, Seacrest and Rick D's all in one. Give

(10:54):
me your best Spider Harrison coming in and number three.
Then then the little Casey Kasem who rest in peace.
Didn't used to broadcast from here, Yes, right here in
the school production room. Like school. He still has a
sign here in the studio. Then he did the voices
on Scool. Yeah he was shaggy dude. Everybody knows anyway.
My top three, I thought that that Roja scoop is

(11:18):
so underrated because unless you play baseball, Manta, you played softball.
It wasn't a true bounce, It wasn't a scoop where
where you you know, if you play baseball, you know
to catch that little scoop that was the in between impossible,
like you're sort of guessing there is a element of
guessing where it's not the short hops. It was beautiful.
It's everything about it was like his eye hand coordination,

(11:40):
because again, that's not a first basement with a little scoop.
It's not a one bouncer where it's a true bounce
you get caught in between. And the fact that he
did that while keeping his foot on the bag, everything
about that was spectacular. Hold on and we've all seen
it on social media. Two great plays. Key k going
against the coaches and instructions playing in caught it. Barger

(12:03):
not thinking that he was gonna catch it. He catches that. No,
look because he's looking at third. He's looking a second
when you see it broken down. He's not even looking
at the ball when he catches it, and he's ready
to fly. Yeah, he was already. He knew what he
was gonna do. Game of inches, every little thing and
mattered that right there. Oh I'm sorry, did I say

(12:25):
tough three? I have a tap four coming to a
number four. That was number four, number three. The ball
getting suck in the wall zero might be the greatest
thing that ever happened to the Los Angeles Dodgers. Goes
back to Key K again because Key K was the
first guy to signal to center field hands up. If
you watch it over again, it may be lost because

(12:45):
it all happened so fast. You see the veteran presence
of a guy who's been number four and steps up
in these moments. Keith k Hernandez was a big time hero.
Does his hands right up, don't touch it, dose his
hands up And that changed everything.

Speaker 2 (13:01):
Bro.

Speaker 6 (13:02):
So we most of us have never seen that happen
where the ball gets wedged between the wall and the ground.
But Jonas Knox, who I worked with over the weekend,
he says, this happens at Wrigley Field all the time
when the ball would go into the ivy blue move.

Speaker 1 (13:13):
But the thing is, they tried to do it. Remember
they found the Andre Dawson in there one time. Remember
that commercial the old Hawk is in there. No, but
I've never seen it wedged like that before. Well, they
tried to replicate this on MLB network, I believe, and
they were like, yo, you could do it a thousand
times from close distance and you can't wedge it. And
that was a freaking incident that really changed things.

Speaker 3 (13:32):
They have turf out there underneath that fence, and it's
a tight fit with the fence and the turf, and
so people that were trying to compare it to what
happened to the Mets back in the day rich with
the ball clearly underneath the fence.

Speaker 2 (13:44):
But no, this the the ball just had a dead stop.

Speaker 4 (13:47):
That was the unluckiest moment for the Blue Jays and
the luckiest moment for the Dodgers.

Speaker 1 (13:53):
I mean, what, that guy was scoring. That guy, at
least one of them was scoring. You don't know if
they would have lost. Thinking about I'll tell you what
one runold of scored. And instead of second and third,
you got a guy on second. There's it changes all
complexity of the game. Unlucky in the sense that was
a hard hit ball.

Speaker 7 (14:09):
What are the chances of getting in the crevice and
not moving at all?

Speaker 1 (14:13):
Like that is? It was so on It was such
a hard hit ball.

Speaker 4 (14:17):
It was almost like you should have not hit it
as hard like unlucky.

Speaker 1 (14:21):
And lucky for worse. Usually lucky when someone gets caught
in some crevasiers, some crevices. Sometimes sometimes it's good to
get stuck into crevices, Just not that time.

Speaker 2 (14:30):
All right.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
So that was number three, number two of my top
four that I just randomly made up riches top four
MLB countdown. Yea, bro, someone broke this down and I
posted on my Instagram story at Rich Davis. Now, I'm
not saying no one else thought of this, but this
guy was the first to bring it to my attention.
This guy here, you're gonna give no credit to some
of its chubby GIBBRONI from you some random reporter on TikTok.

(14:53):
I don't know who it is, but you want me
to give him credit? Hall, let me say if it's
still my thing. Oh click White Rose Baseball. There you go,
some chubby do with a beer that seems like a
nice fellow. He talks about how when Angel pegan not
Angel Peccan. I'm sorry, Pius, Yes, Angel Pagan. That was

(15:14):
the first shout of that guy gotten a decade on
any sports radio, Angel Pagan. Where that name creep into
my head? PI has you know, here's the other side story.
There's so many little stories. He had just gone in
as a defensive replacement for Edmund, so again this had
just happened. These are little stories that go right under
the radar. They just put them in. Great call by

(15:35):
Roberts but yeah, I'm not sure Edmund makes that catch. Yeah,
so probably not happen. And if that didn't happen, he
does not make that this by the way, this has
nothing to do with Angel Pagan for the yeah start,
I'm not sure what happened there.

Speaker 3 (15:47):
We're gonna shout out Candy Maldonado.

Speaker 1 (15:49):
I'm gonna say, you know, it's so crazy when Jeff
Kent what no, Andy Piez when he goes back for
that ball and him and by the way, Kei K.

Speaker 2 (15:58):
We've all been there, whether it's.

Speaker 1 (16:00):
Little league, when a ball is directly over your head,
the angle you take, you're not you're not going left,
you're not going right, like you're sort of in a
no man's land. Key K is not catching that ball.
Zero chance. My what I thought was the coolest observation
was that when Pies floats over like he's Carlos Beltron
in his prime, like he floated from center field to

(16:23):
left field, he makes that catch, collides with key K.
Key K's down on the ground like a ton of bricks.
Your instinct was, oh, is key K a hurt? And
then when this guy pointed out on Instagram, I was like,
oh my god, yeah, key K in that moment thought
I didn't get the ball. We just lost the World Series.
I cost the team the World Series by colliding with

(16:44):
pie ha his In this moment, when you see key
K down on the ground for like five seconds, you're like,
oh my god, is he hurt? And then he just
pops up. He wasn't hurt. You got to see key
K thinking for five seconds. I just cost the team
the World Series. I got it got.

Speaker 8 (17:04):
So much.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
That was like you got to see someone's real time reaction.
But at that moment, I didn't think of that. I
just thought, oh, maybe Kik got banged up. In that moment,
he thought we just lost the World Series. And every
one of these moments was necessary for the Dodgers to win,
and they pulled it off. You know, you had to
be the man to beat the man. The Dodgers proved

(17:26):
that they're the men. They're the team, and and and
the Blue Jays were great. I understand the sentiment of
people thinking they might have been the better team because
they have a great style, a great fight, But the
Dodgers are still just a little better man because they
did all those little things to combat and they did
it when it mattered. Props to Rojas, Props to Will Smith.

(17:47):
What dude came too big again?

Speaker 2 (17:50):
Again?

Speaker 1 (17:50):
You can't really put your finger on. Here's the best
part about it. You can't really put your finger on
what the best moment was? Was it the crevice? Was
it Miguel Roles? Was it Will Smith coming through doing
something that no one coming through?

Speaker 2 (18:06):
Big guy.

Speaker 1 (18:07):
He embraced like his old school like inner Japanese warrior
and got out there like that is something that is admirable.
Like he's he wanted that ball, but my number one,
number one, number one be and and listen. He has
defended himself since. And I feel like this is such
a tricky moment in the World Series and will be

(18:30):
remembered forever. You're old Yankee now Blue Jay Kiner Falaffel
Isaiah I KF good ballplayer. They put him in there
for his speed. Now when you see the overhead shot
of the weakest ass secondary lead he gets on that

(18:52):
ball that's hits Rojas, you want to immediately be like,
this guy is weak ass base running cost the Blue
Jays the World Series. If Max Munsey's ten feet off
the bag, why is the runner? Is he only five
feet off the bag. He has since spoken saying that
all the managers and coaches were so adamant about not
getting doubled up that they said, be, you know, be

(19:17):
cautious with your secondary leads. Think about it, guys, if
you're a casual baseball fan in field in because there's
a play at the plate, but if there's a line
drive hit to anybody there, you got to be cautious
to not get doubled up a hit to Munsie in
a later situation. I'm just glad that the coaches. I
feel like the coaches have to take more accountability of Like, no,
we told him not to take a secondary lead, because

(19:38):
had he taken a secondary lead, the Blue Jays win
the World Series, ran through it. Why did he slide?
A lot of people are saying that he should have
head first, to a head first dive, might have gotten
gotten there sooner. Who knows, because you know, we all
know from playing baseball as a kid, they always say
sliding into first base is not the move. You get
that quicker running through. So I I don't know what

(20:00):
the right answer is. I don't think any of us do.
I wonder if AI. I wonder if AI on as
he knows he's going home. He has to take a
bigger lead or get a bigger jump. There the fact
that Rojas was able to still get his feet from
under him. He stumbled, and he still got him out.
And again, if will will Smith could have been could

(20:21):
have been. I want to say the goat, but the
goat means greatest of all time now, but he could
have been blamed for losing it if his foot was.

Speaker 2 (20:26):
Not on that base.

Speaker 1 (20:29):
The little moment will Smith made it such a great
and memorable World Series. Honestly, my number one is the
fact that you could argue that we witnessed, we were
honored enough to witness, and my team wasn't even in it.
One of the most well played World Series, most exciting
World Series, Top three at least of all time. My
dad's a seventy year old guy, loves baseball, loves football.

(20:50):
My dad's retired. He watches sports, plays tennis, golf. Doesn't
you know he's my dad's traveling. He's doing an old
retired guy does. But he's a retired sports fan. My
dad says, we just wentness. He goes, I'm a son.
I watched a hell of a lot of baseball from
Mantle and Maris to you know, the eighties nineties. He said,
this was like it was so well played, he goes,

(21:10):
he goes, how could you not be pulled in?

Speaker 9 (21:13):
Like?

Speaker 1 (21:13):
It really was the best the World Series? We applaud
and we said it all season long? Did we not
say it all season long? Baseball's popping? And it ended
so perfectly with the Dodgers on top. Will Smith props
to a great I gotta ask if IKF gets that
secondary lead slides head first, if the Dodgers lose the
World Series on Will Smith's foot going up, do you

(21:36):
guys hate Will Smith? No? No, like you like, what
would you pick up your foot like? Because there wasn't
The foot came up and went down. He's lucky that
it went back down. But I wonder had Ikf if
it was literally when I tell you, you know the
still frame, which would haunt the Toronto fan either they
lost the World Series by as much three inches? Yeah,

(21:57):
but rich would it have been lost on a replay?
Because I would say more six inches the way when
you get right, when you watch that in real time,
because we've seen it in slow motion like a million times.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
When you watch in real time, it was so bang bang,
so close.

Speaker 1 (22:11):
It was so close, and rich on that thought something
that made me go, And again we'll take your phone
calls at eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. Things
that made you go NFL that also counts NBA Halloween,
whatever you observe this weekend. Let's say I KF did
score the Blue Jays win, who gets the MVP? If

(22:34):
they win? Would it have been Clement who broke the
hit record? Actually, like a beast would have been you savage?
Would it have been Laddie?

Speaker 9 (22:41):
Like?

Speaker 1 (22:42):
Who would have been the m v P for that team?
Because they That's a great question. Yeah, was even sick
with his glove.

Speaker 7 (22:49):
Nobody was out of his mind defense every time when
caught that laundry and then he danced to the dugout
like I play where he went to two, went back
to cover first like that, right, I was like everything,
that's it.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
They're gonna win everything close by the way. I'm so glad,
one last thing and then we'll get to more football.
And of course, hey you got baseball observations. Let's hear
I'm having some fun today. It's like an overwhelming Monday
because we're into November now, it's like, take a deep breath,
Halloween World series. All this is now in the rear view,
and it felt like just like too much of a weekend.

(23:26):
On top of that, I got a colonoscopy, so my weekend,
thank you for the fact. Thank you. Yeah? Yeah, what
a weird what what a weird weekend? I inherently the
doctor told me had the bunghole of an eighteen year old. Yeah, congratulations,
that was the quote. I believe. Yeah, but don't be
diving into my inbox after that news. Don't be diving
in where.

Speaker 2 (23:44):
I don't want. I don't want any dms from any weirdos.

Speaker 1 (23:47):
So I'm just so glad because it could have happened. Right,
We talked about a memorable game six and seven, and
for the most part, the eighteen inning game as well.
Here's the thought, thank god none of those moments, because
they've very well could have. There were so many times
where that game, game six, seven, or three could have
been determined by a walk, a sac fly, or something

(24:10):
like anti climactic. Are you glad it didn't like the
fact that it was, you know, a double mookie turning
a double play a one, you know, essentially a six
steping on the bag three double play. That was a
great six six three double play? Do you look at me?

Speaker 2 (24:25):
A broken bat?

Speaker 1 (24:27):
That was another thing I don't I haven't heard anyone
talk about that. That was a broken bat. Yea, I'm
a moto stepping up again. But a broken bat double
play from Alejandro kirk Man that could have went anyway,
and somehow he pulled that off.

Speaker 2 (24:38):
Don't you.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
Don't you think though, that like if that game had
had ended in a walk or even even like the
Blue Jays would have taken it. But imagine Everyone's just
standing there and like after review, Will Smith's foot was
off the play, blue Jays won the World Series. That's
what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (24:54):
It was kind of like how we were saying that
eighteen inning marathon, what if that had ended with just
that sacrifice fly that Call could have got.

Speaker 1 (25:01):
That's why we said. I remember telling you, I was like,
I was so happy I was rooting for you. But
if Alex Call would have had a sackfly, that would
have been the weakest ending to the coolest game. So
anytime these games do end in dramatic fashion, you got
to say that's so much better, so much better. Well,
I didn't think they could do it. Rich, you said
they would. I did. I didn't think the Dodgers, as
great as they are, would go to Toronto and take

(25:25):
two in a row from a team that just battles
the way the Blue Jays did that. Being said, the
Dodgers proved that they're one of the best teams we've
ever seen. Not only that they're likable, they're not really
that hateable. They're such a great cast of characters and
personalities both teams. I was so impressed by both teams,

(25:45):
the resilience of both teams, the way they both battled,
and again we're privileged to have witnessed it. So your
thoughts on Game six, Game seven, your Halloween weekend, and
of course Week nine of the NFL. We turned to
you next Fox Sports Radio Nation, your feedback, your thoughts
as we continue and wrap up things that made you
go hmmm, go get checked and after your health warning

(26:10):
of the day, it was not a big deal, got home,
watched the World Series. Had a great weekend. By the way,
Rich live from the Fox Sports Radio Studio. I picked
them Cavino after his Colonosco be on Friday. Yeah, I
wasn't here on Friday, I did the show solo. Some
people said it was better.

Speaker 2 (26:26):
I'm kidding.

Speaker 1 (26:27):
I'm sure Dan Byer would love to know you did
it solo, solo meaning no coveno. It was like, you know,
the ensemble, and I give it. I would never give it.

Speaker 6 (26:38):
Much credit that I give the team on Friday a
lot of credit. And we were all weighing in quite
a bit. It was a lot of fun to make up.

Speaker 1 (26:44):
For your voice. Sounds collaborative to me. I just imagined
it was very collaborative. It doesn't sound like a Rich show.
Rich Rich was the ringleader. Sounds like an ensemble performance
in my opinion. Well, what I was gonna say was
when I picked up Cavino all loopy from the doctor's
office after it's COLONOSCOPI, they won't let you take an
uber home because they legally can't put you in the

(27:07):
hands of a stranger when you're still medicated, so you
have to have a friend or family member pick up.
I was Kavino's friend or family member, but I had
to fill out the form to release him an under
relationship it said partner, and I wonder if they all
thought I was Covino's boyfriend. Probably yeah, Manci you think
so after they saw how you absolutely the car on

(27:29):
your foot flops. Probably absolutely. They're probably that Q couple
either that or is a cowboy. Hey, we've been together
like twenty years. Oh no, we on the rate, rig said,
how do you partner?

Speaker 9 (27:40):
Sure?

Speaker 1 (27:40):
I'm here to pick up Cavino. So, I hope you
had a great weekend. You're both detectives, which Merton Riggs.
I hope you had a Miguel Rojas Yamamoto sort of weekend,
not a Blue Jay sort of week and teams won.
I hope you enjoyed the parade footage today we'll talk
about that. Hope you had a Steelers beat the Cults

(28:03):
sort of weekend. You can't win every game, dude, I
think you did that. We didn't think that the culture
gonna go sixteen and one, did we. I mean, you're
gonna have an l and I think on the road
in Pittsburgh is one of those. Maybe. So your observations,
anything that happened this weekend. We do that every Monday.
Things that make you go, we still have Last One standing.
We're gonna give away prizes during this show eight seven,
seven ninety nine on Fox let's get you involved. We

(28:24):
also got the live chat going on YouTube Covino and
Rich FSR. Covino and Rich with Danny g Sam Spotty
and Monzi's in for dB today. Rich, Well, I know
Monsei's in for dB because hey, Daniel on the intro
check keep it in your pants. Monsey is such a battie.
Oh well, if you want to see Monzie, might as
well cash in on that. Covino and Rich FSR on YouTube.

(28:45):
Covino and Rich FSR on YouTube. If you need some
eye candy to go with your Halloween trees. By the way,
speaking of which, Monsy sexy referee for Halloween? Why not
because you're a sexy foot locker employee. Sure can you
not tell me you were the sexiest referee other than
at Hockeyways, So get this. He talked about all the highlights,

(29:11):
all the plays that could have.

Speaker 2 (29:13):
Been, should have been, would have been almost all of them.

Speaker 1 (29:15):
Yeah, and when we say this world series had everything,
and all these close calls and big moments from unlikely
heroes and actual big moments from superstars. With all that
and the crevice and all these big plays, we didn't
even mention it was a bench.

Speaker 3 (29:30):
Clearing moment Danny Jah Robleski channeling Joe Kelly. But I
don't think he was at fault. And it's not because
I'm a Dodgers fan. You saw him and as reaches
his hand out to try to get hit, and then
he actually does get hit and had a problem with it,
and so you could read the lips of Robleski and
then they got into it.

Speaker 1 (29:50):
To me, what fascinates me the most, dannyj for real,
is that it's World Series game six or seven. Like,
no one's giving anyone a base. I don't care what
had blood you have. In a close game six or seven,
no one is hitting anyone on purpose. I promise you
maybe if you have a seven lead. But they gave
a warning, and I'm like a warning you think people

(30:12):
in game seven of the World Series and a tight
game need a warning. Emotions were so high it was great.
It just added more fire and fun to us as
the viewer. And I do have one little I'll have
one bone to pick, Okay, one small one made me say, hmm,
you can't predict how you're going to react when you
win the World Series, right, But when Yamamoto gets that

(30:34):
double play, great play by Mookie Betts great pitch to
get Kirk on a double play. I feel like his
first instinct is to turn around and hug his catcher.
That's the team right there, and instead he's just he's
showing his ass and give your catcher a hug. Man.
I think that was, you know, just a little this. No,

(30:57):
it's just an observation, that's all, because I think they've
got such a communication going on. You know, that's the
that's the battery there, that's the that's the team there.

Speaker 2 (31:06):
They're a unit.

Speaker 1 (31:07):
I think when a pitcher wins or closes out the
World Series, that's between you and your catcher for that
moment and then the.

Speaker 2 (31:13):
Rest of it.

Speaker 1 (31:14):
But I'll tell you what, no one was still so
great to see a minor It was relief anyone that's
ever played baseball. That is one of the best feelings.
Even as playing like playing Rex softball as an adult,
you're playing shortstop, as I called the take to keep
it yourself. Double play always feels good like, oh, I'm
just gonna keep this myself. So in that moment, Mookie's

(31:36):
fielding it and he's thinking I just won the World
Series for the fourth time. Mookie bets four time World
Series champion and in that moment when he's like, oh,
Kirk Slow, I got this, step on it. Throw Let's
go now. The rest of our observations will be about
the NFL Week nine, some Halloween stuff too, but I
do post this question before we go to Manci to

(31:59):
wrap up all the series hype.

Speaker 2 (32:00):
And it was great.

Speaker 1 (32:02):
There's a lot of speculation Dodger's ruining baseball, saving baseball.
I'll let you know exactly what I think. You know
what makes me go, hmmm? Sam Donald like elite?

Speaker 9 (32:15):
Now?

Speaker 1 (32:15):
Is he ad elite status? Or I mean it's playing
out of his mind? I call me, Uh, I'm wrong.
As a Niners fan, I thought it was the Rams
and the Niners. Niners are banged up. You knew the
Cardinals were gonna stink. But damn Buyer Seahawks. Yeah? Are
they like? Way better than we all think? Well, pause there,
because we're Cavino and Rich live from the Fox Sports

(32:36):
Radio studio and it's time for our tire rack.

Speaker 2 (32:38):
Play of the day.

Speaker 1 (32:39):
Sam Donald was perfect passing the ball on the first
half of last night's blow out win over the Commanders.
Take a listen a play fake to Walker, Donald's gonna roll.

Speaker 5 (32:48):
He's got his man. It's White breaks your tackle going
down the far sidelights, he could go. He is for
a touchdown? Shayhawks, are you kidding me? Everybody scored but
Dave Liman.

Speaker 1 (33:02):
Tonight who courtesy of the Seahawks Radio Network. All right,
wrapping up things that made you go hmmm, taking your
phone calls eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox and
At Covino and Rich and chatting live live chat on
our YouTube page Covino and Rich FSR. The question is,
after the World Series is over, is the Dodgers ruining baseball?

(33:24):
I mean, how could you say that with a straight
face after everything we just watched. We know for years
and years and years of experience at this point that
you can't buy championships. You could put all sorts of
superstars together and it doesn't guarantee you diddle squat. It's
this particular cast of characters, this team that they constructed,
the belief they have in each other, the chemistry they built,

(33:45):
and the way they played the game. They may be
superstars that get paid a lot of money, but they
played tough. Yeah, dude, when we agree it's facts, they're
saving baseball because they're bringing everybody in the only advantage
the Dodgers have that I'm not saying it's unfair, just
the reality is that we are seeing an influx of
really good Japanese players, and there.

Speaker 2 (34:07):
Is a want geography.

Speaker 1 (34:10):
I know what I'm saying, that's a want and an
instinct to want to play closer to Asia going on
the West Coast.

Speaker 6 (34:15):
Yes, I was, Sam MONSI was it during Doug show
that we it was at least twenty six million people
watch the World Series?

Speaker 1 (34:22):
Correct, So let's.

Speaker 6 (34:23):
I don't even know if we're counting Japan and Canada,
like the Canadian audience, at least twenty six million people watch.

Speaker 1 (34:29):
How many people just just when you talk to your
colleagues at work and you're just talking to your buddies,
how many people are like, yo, that was the best
World Series I've seen in years.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (34:38):
And to put that into perspective, sixteen point four million
watched Game seven of the NBA Finals.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
Yeah, I'm a listen. Baseball's popping, there's no doubt. And
are the Dodgers bad for baseball? No? The simple answer
is the only advantage you might have is Japanese players
want to play there because it's closer to Japan and
anywhere in Asia. But that's it, you know, tough luck,
they're tough saving baseball. They're getting people to watch, to

(35:04):
tune in. Superstars are on that team. The casual fan
is like, I guess they even peaked at thirty one
point five million and it was tough biddies, as they say.
But I'll say this the owner's step by when people
blame the Dodgers, Yankees, Mets, Phillies, Blue Jays, these teams

(35:26):
for spending money giants, we're making it seem like the
other owners are paupers that are like, please have my
bread and soup. Like we're talking about other billionaires that
just aren't in a to win it, like those teams
are pirates. Is a great example. There's teams that have
a great legacy, the Baltimore Orioles. Keep your players happy.
Billionaires don't buy teams if you are not in it

(35:48):
to win it. It's not the fault of the billionaires
are in it to win it. It's the fault of
the billionaires who use it as an investment and don't
really give a hell about it. That's the problem. Yo
Am I a big sports baby. If I thought it
was beautiful when Clayton Kershaw hugged his family, closed his

(36:08):
eyes and shed a little tearm because if so, I'm
a sports baby, because that was beautiful. When he ran
in to celebrate, look like he was having a heart attack.
Do you know, by the way, can you do on
Ranch Fox Sports Radio? Do you know they're saying Clayton
Kershaw was the last Dodger to know they won the
World Series? You know the story? No, because he was

(36:29):
in full warm up mo because they may have gone
to him on the motto. So all the other relievers
and people in the bullpen were at the fence, the
Dodger team and support team were in the dugout in
the locker room, Kershaw was locked in on his warm
up pitches and they go, ya, we just won the
World Series and he's like what And then he had
a heart attack. That makes more sense. Yeah, so Kershaw

(36:51):
the last to know. Yeah, don't let me be the
bad last night. But I love him lumbering, lumbering towards everyone.
And also just him shirtless, lumbering around just like doing interviews,
shirt lists, just nipples, sweet nipples. That was actually big
Poppy was like, Oh, Clinton Kershaw six pack sound like
the right accent. Look look at his nipples, Look at

(37:14):
his nipples? Deck a six pack. Now we're Covino and

go over our week nine observations NFL things that made
you go home, get ready for Monday Night football this weekend.
Lots of things going on. Monsy was Phillis Karen? Did

(37:58):
you see Monts I didn't even recognize as Philly's Karen?
Did you see her post a blonde wake fools him? No,
he wasn't the only one.

Speaker 4 (38:06):
Martin Weiss was like, I was about to introduce myself
to you in the hallway.

Speaker 1 (38:09):
Yeah, it still of course, let me see if I'm fooled.
I have a question about Halloween and I'm just throwing
it out there to the Fox Sports Radio nation. Depending
on where you live regionally, it's all going to be different.
But I saw a big buzz about there was a
lack of kids trick or treating this year. So my
question is, did trunk or treat ruin trick or treat?

(38:31):
Were there less kids on the streets? Do kids come
through social media just know what neighborhoods to go to
because they know where the king sized bars are? Because
why were there so many stories of of just dead
neighborhoods with no kids. I mean, is trunk or treat
killing it? Or what I feel like now, or is
lack of variety killing it? I think now people know

(38:52):
where to go and some neighborhoods are just like, yeah,
it's not a hot spot. Where I went with my
kids was a party that I've never seen, like people
with tables and music playing in lights and Dodgers games
were playing. Neighborhoods go through skeletons with lights and yeah,
but it made me gom no, because you know, there's
a lot of people saying where were all the kids?
And all these people were stuck with their variety pack

(39:14):
of kit kats. Anyway, I think kids are more active
now than they've been a long time. People love to
think every kids inside in their iPad. Kids are playing sports,
kids are out and about. It's not reckless like we were
something to think about it. I hope all the kiddo's
had a great weekend. Before we go to the phones,
I just have to say my first observation about Week
nine NFL is I mean, I hate to state the obvious.

(39:35):
I'll pull the magic Johnson. There's a magic Johnson sort
of tweet right now, the obvious. Okay, whoever wins Game
seven is the champion. No, there really is no rhyme
or reason this season that rhyme. There's no rhyme or
reason this season. This season makes no sense in my
mind more than ever before. It's like now we're talking, oh,

(39:57):
the Patriots and the Broncos are the team to beat.
All of a sudden, Drake Mays the guy. And I'm
not saying he wasn't before. I'm just saying it's like
week to week and like, oh, the Chiefs lose to
the Bills. The Green Bay Packers lose. Nothing makes sense,
no rhyme or reason this season to Bill. Your observation,
Bill's beating the Chiefs is no surprise at all. I'm

(40:18):
just saying nothing makes sense to me, bro to me.
But I do think the other game he mentioned, like
everyone thought, oh the Packers, maybe they just step ahead
of the rest of the NFC. They had the first
class of the NFC. Yeah, but I thought the Chiefs
are gonna lose, We're gonna win because I just thought
the Bills are so erratic this season. Nothing makes sense.
Like I said, you should have been my observation. I
don't bet. I don't need to. I'm good on that.

(40:40):
I'm just saying it wasn't like a big there was
no real points. But it's like people of bets, you
owe me at least one thousand dollars and a show.
Hey Rookie, oh jeez, well, you know, if you want
to go over it later on the show, I'm down
to discuss. Funny how Rich always avoids this conversation. I
don't well, baseball was popping all season, and I won
that bet that Yankees Mets.

Speaker 2 (41:00):
Laid that to me and his money.

Speaker 1 (41:02):
Pay your debt. All right, let's go to your phone calls,
and there are observations one being without weapons, the giants
just stink. I don't The forty nine ers one and
scored a lot, but I just think it was the
giants stink, and I'm not really I don't look at
that as my niners are awesome. I look at it
more as yeah, the giants, it's I think without weapons

(41:23):
most teams would stink. Yeah, but even still they couldn't
even their most key players. Yeah, let's say, how to Baker.
Baker is in Illinois? What's up, Bake?

Speaker 9 (41:32):
Hey, what's up guys. Some of the movie, though, is
why were the packers looking like they're dressed up as
the Bears.

Speaker 2 (41:42):
For that's dirt?

Speaker 1 (41:44):
They're old school through I thought they were cool uniforms,
but uh, it's funny. Like I was watching with my girlfriend,
She's like, now that terrible. I was like, ah, kind
of cool.

Speaker 2 (41:54):
I liked him.

Speaker 1 (41:56):
I think I like how to make the helmetsok, like
the old leather helmets. I think something made me go, hmm,
is Danny g your game and it's something Trip wants
to talk about? So you want to go to Trip
in Vegas, because I think we have now finalized our
thoughts on over time.

Speaker 10 (42:14):
What's up, Trip, Hey, good, guess about Yeah, I'm at
a game yesterday.

Speaker 11 (42:20):
One.

Speaker 10 (42:21):
I can't believe that guy made that field goal. That
thing could have been good from seventy four.

Speaker 1 (42:24):
That thing was deep, yeah, history sixty eight yards Yeah.

Speaker 10 (42:28):
And then two what happens? Like I said, ten minutes,
it's like it's over. They had the ball, and then
three minutes left the Raiders go down to right. We
got to go two games over.

Speaker 1 (42:38):
I mean, that's the reality of it. Now. If you
want to if you want to settle for a tie, hey,
you could say it's better than the old rules, where
a touchdown Danny your team would have lost. But now
you get a chance to possess the ball you score.
But with the ten minute overtime, if you score, then
you go for the extra point. Tie a push.

Speaker 3 (42:58):
It needs to be fifteen minutes. Way you get three possessions.

Speaker 1 (43:01):
It's the only real solution we thought about it. I
think no one in the studio would disagree that a
fifteen minute overtime really just solves it, because what that
does is it gives the other team a possession. Right,
you move the ball, you see what happens. But ten minutes,
that's two drives. Really, it just stinks. I agree trip
overtime rules. They still have yet to get it right.

(43:21):
What else, trip? What's what else on your mind?

Speaker 11 (43:24):
Uh?

Speaker 10 (43:24):
One thing else I had was on the TV show today,
Cavino's hairs looking really dark and black. It looks good.

Speaker 1 (43:29):
Oh hell yeah, dark brown black, just for Vatos if
anyone's shopping later on. Yeah, dark brown black, okay. Jalen Brown, nice,
don't rub your don't rub your head on my hoodie.

Speaker 3 (43:40):
Yeah yeah, my insides were cleaned out, so your skin
is glowing.

Speaker 1 (43:44):
Oh yeah, and lots of hair dye.

Speaker 2 (43:45):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (43:45):
Yeah, I appreciate it. You know, we talked about that
last week. There have been companies that are now approaching
Jalen Brown. I'm not surprised at all. Well, it's sort
of like Livy Dunn, you know, future missus Paul Skeens.
Remember she raised her arms and they saw the deodorant,
like the stained pits. She officially signed to deal with
Secret deodorant. So we agreed last week that Jaylen Brown
definitely need to get some deal. Oh yeah, no, something

(44:06):
to no doubt, thank you, Trip Bruno and Brooklyn. Hey Bruno,
Hey Bruno.

Speaker 11 (44:10):
Boys, Hey, congratulations to all of the best series of baseball.
I've seen it order of years. It was probably the greatest. Again,
I can't as a Yankees fan, I actually felt like
it was one of the best World Series I've ever
seen with after.

Speaker 2 (44:25):
In one hundred years.

Speaker 11 (44:25):
How old are you, man, No, no, listen, get curious
at all. I mean you guys hit on all the
high notes of what you made you say, boom, I
mean how many you could talk about it for four hours?

Speaker 2 (44:34):
Yeah, fantastic, Thank you man. I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Speaker 1 (44:37):
And that is the sentiment from everybody you talk to,
your family members, your buddies. Everyone's just shaking her head like,
was that not incredible? Man? Edge of your seat excitement
and you know, so fun to have witnessed it. Any
other thoughts on Berno, No, I think he's just saying,
you know, it was a great, great season, and I'm
glad to have been able to bring that fun here

(44:58):
for you on the show because we brought the hyph
we were also pumped from day one of this baseball season. Now,
Rich other observations. You know, you said you didn't expect
the Chiefs to win that one. Here's a fun stat
about the Chiefs. They're currently out of the playoffs. If
the season ended today, the Chiefs would be out of
the NFL playoffs for the first time in over a decade.
But they're still giving the highest chance to win the

(45:20):
Super Bowl according to the stats. So it's like talk
talking about talking out of both sides of your mouth.
So Vegas, yeah, Vegas still as the Chiefs as a
top tier Super Bowl odds winner right Yet if the
season were to end halfway through, they're still on the outside.
Look at that made me say hmmm, because you know
five and four now they lost, they're in last place,

(45:41):
but there's still the odds favorites to win it all.

Speaker 3 (45:44):
By the way, Bruno said, the last point he wanted
to make was the older qbs in the NFL who
are playing well right now, like Aaron Rodgers. And of
course we saw Flacco with some crazy stats.

Speaker 1 (45:55):
The fact that he put on a show and your
defense can do anything made me say hmm.

Speaker 2 (46:00):
I was like, oh my.

Speaker 1 (46:01):
God, one hundred and seventy yards and four touchdowns for
all for can I can I say something that's gonna
hurt the feelings of Toronto Blue Jay fans everywhere. Oh boy,
why would you want to Why would you want to
rub it in? It's ollver, pals. It's when you get

(46:21):
there and you're that close. People. You say that close,
you mean like two and a half inches so close,
like that close, like like like Will Smith's little Tootsie
so close. But you know what it's like. It's like
you ever break up with someone MANSI, let's talk, real talk, okay,
me and you? All right, let's go Manzi. She broke

(46:41):
lots of How many dudes has Monzi destroyed?

Speaker 2 (46:44):
Tons?

Speaker 1 (46:45):
I think a few. Maybe picture a guy that you
had a dump because he just wasn't up to Mansie standards. Sure,
and like you probably said something nice like hey, maybe
one day we'll get back together. And like you you
you say, it's not you, it's me, but you know,
maybe the timing is wrong, Like who knows, I'm just
not ready. If you love something, let it free. If
it's meant to be, we'll get back. And yeah, I

(47:07):
give some bs right of course, I just really need
to focus on my career. Yes, it's not you Breadkett
things that now you say these nice things, but in
the reality is you're like, I'm never getting back with
this dude.

Speaker 8 (47:21):
Right.

Speaker 1 (47:22):
People love to tell Blue Jays fans like, oh, next year,
the chance that they get back next year. I know
you're saying they have a nice core, but look at
the NFL last year. My one of my observations was
a year ago we were like, yo, Jayden Daniels, Washington,
this team is going to be elite for a while.
They're three and six, they're done. Two years ago we

(47:43):
were talking about the Texans and oh man, you know
c J. Stroud and DeMarco Ryan's like that team, My
goodness that you sometimes you're a little window is no
tomorrow you'll have a window. And sometimes it's like you're
giving an opportunity and then like it's it's that's that's it.
It really is it. So it's their job to not
feel the way you feel.

Speaker 4 (48:02):
It is their jobs not feel like that because no
offense to the Yankees last year, but Toronto, like you
just said, it was down to a moment, there's no
that's something they shouldn't have the mentality, I.

Speaker 1 (48:13):
Know they should say we could come back here. And
do it. But you know how rare that is. I
can only I know the only way it could happen
is if don Mattingly retires. That's when they win at all,
becausematically can't win. He remember he retired, and then they
and then the run. But felt so bad for Donnie
baseball the only time I could think of this really

(48:33):
working out. And I'm sure other people have answers, but
when the Kansas City Royals lost in seven games to
the Giants, they did come back the next year and
they beat my Mets. To have that, to have that
endurance and that like belief in yourself, like we're gonna
make it back, and we're gonna do it this time,
it never happens. I think Tom Brady did in the NFL,

(48:53):
but like it's so far a few between. So like
I know, Washington Redskins Commanders fans that thought we're about
to take over the NFC East, you stink again.

Speaker 2 (49:04):
It happens.

Speaker 1 (49:05):
It happens in all of sports. You think your team
turned the corner. Miami Dolphins fans a couple of years
ago thought, oh we got Tyreek Hill and Waddle, and
you know two is our guy, Mike McDaniel. You made
like one little playoff running thought, we'll bills from here.
You stink again.

Speaker 2 (49:19):
It's so hard to get back.

Speaker 1 (49:20):
It's so hard to get back in a competitive hard
to get back to our world series, and it's so
hard to get back into the loving arms of Mancy.

Speaker 2 (49:27):
That's really what I'm going.

Speaker 1 (49:28):
Yeah, but I'm saying like, we don't worry. Maybe in
another lifetime. It's nice to see that lifetime. Yeah, maybe
like in another like multiverse and he's going to be there,
like I'm here, and you're like, yeah, I thought about it.
Probably not even look at the Ravens. I know in
this verse, I'm high on the Ravens. I'm high on
the Ravens making a run because I think the Steelers

(49:50):
are showing vulnerability. But even though they did win yesterday,
I think that the Ravens are certainly not out of
it based on their weak ass schedule coming up. And
they still play Pittsburgh, right, so say twice, So they're
not out of it. But we're so we were so sure,
like don't worry, Lamar and Derrick Henry, They're going to
get back there. You know, It's so not easy. These
are professional athletes. So if I'm a Toronto Blue Jays fan,

(50:11):
I am sick to my stomach because you can look
say the same about the Washington Commanders. As you know,
I'm a big Mets fan. Last year when they took
the Dodgers to six games and then they got Sodo,
You're like, so the team that had all that magic
added Sodo, they didn't even make the playoffs. It's it's
so hard to be good in professional sports. I know
that's like a silly thing to say, but when you have,

(50:34):
when you're so close to winning and you don't, it's
heart breakings devast It is just heartbreaking. You know what
made me see him yesterday looked like Aaron Rodgers like
getting his ass smack.

Speaker 2 (50:44):
Did you see that?

Speaker 1 (50:45):
There was a viral clip of him getting his ass
smacked yesterday and he's like, ooh, it looked like he
liked it a little too much. Is this true? Did
you dream this when you were high after your wasn't you?

Speaker 2 (50:56):
You know what?

Speaker 1 (50:57):
But honestly it was you mean my partner Rich, Yeah,
I have a question for you.

Speaker 2 (51:03):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (51:04):
Based on Halloween weekend, I saw something that made me say, hmmm,
it is spooky season.

Speaker 2 (51:10):
The most overused phrase.

Speaker 1 (51:11):
Oh, sour gummy bears. That was new horribo sour gummy bears.

Speaker 2 (51:17):
Do you believe in ghosts? Do you believe in the afterlife?
Do you believe in spirits?

Speaker 1 (51:22):
Because I saw a docu series called True Haunting on
Netflix that has like real life documentation that proves that
there's something in the afterlife spirits freaked me out. Dude,
watch it this weekend, Just throwing it out there. Do
you believe in angels?

Speaker 2 (51:41):
Yet?

Speaker 1 (51:41):
No, there was some convincing evidence, some convincing stories. I
come from a long line of of Mexicans that love
to tell spooky, scary stories in the dark of Laona.
Do you believe in spirits? You gotta watch this docu
series besides all the baseball and besides all the football.

(52:06):
I watched the movie, and I think it's my duty
duty to warn you not to watch meaning meaning I
think it's a waste of your time. And it's my
job to not only tell you what to watch and
guide you in the direction of a good game or
a good show or something. I feel like I take
pride in in giving good advice on what to watch

(52:26):
what not to watch. This is an interest album movie
on Netflix that's trending. It's called A House of Dynamite.
It's not good, Moncy. I so badly wanted to want it,
because the premise is, like I think it was the
story of Jimmy Walker. Turns out it's not. That's a
joke for the older guys. Mancy, you'll get it if
you're if you're do for a Klonoscarby, you'll get that job.

Speaker 8 (52:46):
Got it.

Speaker 12 (52:49):
I don't get it.

Speaker 1 (52:53):
I thought it was okay, Jimmy Walker, the JJ Walker story,
House of Dynamite, But are you gonna drop next? And
where's the beef Jroke whatever, there's some brother there's some
soul beef brothers listening, like, ah, I don't mind, no mind,
I got it anyway. House of Dynamite nothing to do
with Jimmy Walker, nothing dynamite at all. It's an interest

(53:15):
album movie, and I don't I don't want to be
the guy. So if you hate spoilers, then you plan
on watching this hunk of junk, then la la la
lah for five seconds five seconds. The concept is cool.
A nuke is headed towards America and the military, the
White House, everything is trying to figure out, all right,
let's let's shoot this down and they're having a hard
time doing it, and as the movie goes on, it's like, uh,

(53:38):
why why haven't we successfully killed this nuclear weapon?

Speaker 2 (53:42):
Yet?

Speaker 1 (53:42):
They tell the story from three perspectives. You ever see
a cool movie like that? Like also, Don't Fake to
Black and like now part two, So they've told the
same story from three perspectives. That sounds cool. And and
the final scene of like what happens? The credits roll
and you're the one. How would you spoil that for?
I think that's cool because it leaves it to interpretation

(54:04):
and you ruin it for everybody. Imagine Megine Bomberger, imagine
reading a book which that's like, that's what you're saying,
and Sopranos sucked. It's like, no, I actually liked it. No,
no, no way different. It's like I was gonna say, it's
like when you need everything spoon fed to you, you
little baby boy? Did you leave the world behind? That
was a nice ending of like, well what happened? Why

(54:25):
do you need to know everything? That was the figure
out That was the one with Julia Roberts. I thought
that was good because that that didn't it didn't just
end it gave you a oh she was picking out
a DVD and it ended.

Speaker 11 (54:35):
Well.

Speaker 6 (54:36):
The point is, if I Rich, did you not like
the movie because of the ending or because it was
in its entirety of crap crap?

Speaker 1 (54:44):
I thought there were the good moments, and again, watch
for yourself. I'm entertaining you for an hour and a
half now two hours and ten minutes too late to
watch it for myself. Now, No, he ruined it. The credits.
You ruined it. You you know what, I just saved
you time. I have a question, Rich, two hours your
life because this movie, you know what happens, all right,
so you know what, I'll really spoil it now.

Speaker 2 (55:06):
Just when you're like, well, what's gonna happen?

Speaker 1 (55:09):
The critic raal so like you watch the three perspectives
of this crazy event, and then when you're like, oh, now,
how it's all gonna culminate, like what's gonna go down?

Speaker 2 (55:18):
It ends?

Speaker 1 (55:18):
And then you go online and there's all these articles
about ending explained that it's like so different. Here's how
I look at it. If you ask a Blue Jays fan,
hey was this season of bust? You just have sour
grapes if you say yes, because they entertain you for
one hundred and seventy something games this year. They played
their hearts out. They didn't win, but look how much
joy they gave you, how they brought people together. The

(55:40):
Blue Jays had an amazing, magical season like your Mets
last year, Rich, was it a bust?

Speaker 2 (55:45):
Now?

Speaker 1 (55:45):
So if this movie entertained you for two hours and
ten minutes and you didn't like the ending, then write
your own movie. Who are you right? Right? It entertained
you and you liked it to the very end. To me,
that's successful today's world, because you can't get my attention nowadays.
So to me, that's a win. It's an interesting thought.
And honestly, to tie this if it had your attention

(56:08):
up until the very end and your only complaint is
the ending, I think you had a successful movie. Well,
then how about this to tie that movie together and
to toue sports together one quick analogy. Then we're gonna
get contestants for our game. If you want to play
last one standing, this is my favorite game. We play
here on FSR eight seven, seven, nine nine on Fox.
We'll give away a Cavino Rich new NERF Turbo Football.

Speaker 2 (56:28):
So Oh they're dope.

Speaker 1 (56:29):
Get involved eight seven to seven, nine nine on Fox.
But if your team entertained you, Because I did see
a montage that like some mom put on TikTok where
it's like, at first I was all sour grapes about
the Blue Jays, and then she put a montage of
all the joyful moments the Blue Jays gave her and
her kids up until Game seven. You know what it
reminds me of when I was at the Super Bowl

(56:50):
watching my forty nine ers lose to the Chiefs in
overtime until that last play when the Chiefs won the
Super Bowl? Could I argue that the night gave me
more joy than any other team except the Chiefs. When
your team loses sucks that they didn't go all the way,
but they brought so many fans out and families together,

(57:11):
and it brought so much excitement. They had made the
World Series in thirty two years or whatever.

Speaker 2 (57:15):
What if you.

Speaker 1 (57:16):
Convince yourself that Will Smith took his foot off to
play it, and you're like, hey, my mind, the Blue
Jays one. What if you just mentally convince yourself, does
you do thatt or you can't take away from those moments.
Even though you didn't like how it ended, it was
still good up until the very last part. So to me,
that's successful. All right, let's do this. We do it
every Monday. Last one standing, Let's go.

Speaker 8 (57:39):
You have five seconds to battle for your sports trivia lot.
Put your electronic devices down and pick your sports knowledge.

Rich and Moncey. Whoever comes closest, just buzz in with
your name to go first. All right, let's talk about
the captain. Get one more baseball question in here, since
it's a parade day in Los Angeles in how many
World Series games did Derek Jeter play during his career?

one standing more than any of us if he would
have destroyed you. That cheating you just tried to accomplish.

and they were cheating. But that was my That was
I was sofication. But I was so confident with my
