Speaker 2 (00:17):
I surging the FSR.

Speaker 1 (00:22):
I hope you had a Nick seventy six Ers, Timberwolf
sort Tonight, We're Covino and Rich. We be rocking out.
Let's go, man, We're gonna get to booty or playoffs.
Boo hypothetical. We're going to talk about leaks in sports.
We're gonna talk about another Manning today that's on the
radar now. But uh, a lot of NBA, some football.
But I do want to say this, if you are

(00:44):
one that wagers, I'm not telling you what to do,
but I would bet on the Mets tonight.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
And I'll tell you why.

Speaker 1 (00:51):
I was going to go.

Speaker 3 (00:52):
To the game.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
Where's the Mets timer?

Speaker 1 (00:54):
Because they're down in Anaheim tonight. Remember my whole plan was, Oh,
let me take the kiddos. They don't I deserve my support.
I was supposed to go, which means because I'm not
going they will win. Oh I got what I'm saying, Like, yeah,
so there we go.

Speaker 2 (01:07):
Mets timers up.

Speaker 1 (01:08):
Carlos Mendoza should pull his ass out tonight because nothing
this guy does will get him fired. So he should
just keep testing the limits. I'm done now, Okay.

Speaker 4 (01:14):
Should he drag the Commissioner's trophy around like George Costanzra
did in that episode.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
He should drag his asser on the bas is like
a dog after he drops one. He should do anything,
because clearly he can't do no wrong. He's not getting fired.
It's not him. He's not the problem. But you know what,
I kind of believe that it's his job to motivate
the team, but it's not solely on him. So I'm
pretty sure is back. Yeah, I'm pretty sure last night

(01:39):
he coached the Hawks? Oh yeah, is that possible?

Speaker 2 (01:42):
Ude? Dude?

Speaker 1 (01:43):
Did everybody get a text message like is this the
right score?

Speaker 3 (01:46):
At halftime? It was one hundred and twenty one to
thirty five?

Speaker 1 (01:49):
Is this real life? That's how I felt. I think
the world looked at there if they weren't watching the
game live, you looked at your app, or you went
on Twitter or something like uh, must be this is
wrong or you know, the app must be wrong. Something's wrong.
First question, is it prisoner of the moment, as Danny
G likes to point out, or is there a reality
to the fact that if they play like that, nobody's

(02:11):
gonna stop them. Who could beat them if they play
like that moving forward? Or you could say they handled
business in the first round, or you could say that, yeah,
you could say that. So Nicks with the big, big win.
One forty eighty nine was the final score, but like
Danny G alluded to, it was a sixty five ten
run at one point and my phone was blowing up again.

(02:34):
Rich and I are from the East coast, so a
lot of Nick's friends, a lot of people hitting this up, like, yo,
you watching this? You watched this, bro, yo? Is that
the right score? A lot of confusion was there an
error on the app? Because you know, a lot of
people were just looking at the score and not, you know,
wondering if this was really the right score. That was
a wild game yesterday, man, and you know it was
a great game. Congrats to our boss Scott and the

(02:57):
Tea Wolves. Yeah, big win for the timberworlds.

Speaker 5 (02:59):
You know.

Speaker 1 (02:59):
Denver Denver had a chance at the end, they cut
it close, and as Danny G, I'll keep giving you credit,
super producer, Danny G. Young and athletics seems to win.

Speaker 2 (03:09):
That's why I'm a super producer.

Speaker 1 (03:11):
I mean, young and athletics seems to be the mo
of teams that are winning in those big spots. No, No,
young turnt and sexy. Isn't that what Mary who works
here says, he is young turnt and sexy.

Speaker 2 (03:21):
Oh Mary, how you doing? What did you say to you?
It's a young.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
Turt and sexy sort of world, especially in a world
of the NBA. Right We've already said this, and we've
always said this, Not to take away from you, Danny G,
but we always said that hip hop and basketball are
young people's game.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
In fact, Jay Z said that recently.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
He said, is corny when old rappers try to make
new songs, it's not working in today's world. So, you know,
it's a young person's game and it's very hard for
these old cats to keep up with these young, energetic dudes.
So that's what we're seeing in the NBA right now.
Young turt and sexy is where it's at. Basketball lose
My favorite sport. I mean that doesn't work anymore.

Speaker 2 (04:00):
It doesn't work.

Speaker 1 (04:02):
I'll actually try to find the quote from jay Z,
but no, seriously, Hip hop, NBA. You know, certain games
are just not meant for the older guys. Like you
could have a great run like Lebron and I'd love
to see him go further, but can you really compete
with the energy skateboarding unless you look unless you want
to look like Steve Bouschemi and that clip like, hey,

(04:22):
young guys, it is it's kind of silly, you know.
It's it's nice that you can still get out there
and do a few tricks. But when you got that
dad bod and you're trying to like, you know, hang
it to skate point. I see a guy like Ben
Marjarratt trying like a stunt or something, yeah's gonna break
his hip.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
Tony Hawk still looks good, he can still sing it.
He looks like mister Roper on a skateboard.

Speaker 4 (04:41):
Yeah, Jack, there's a lot of miles on those wheels
on it.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
I love Tony Hawk for real. No, but you know,
certain things are just the young guy's game. Are we
always rooting for the old guy? Yeah, that's inspirational. Of course,
and could it happen. Absolutely, But do you have that
same level of energy. It's it's it's unmatched.

Speaker 2 (05:01):
You can't.

Speaker 1 (05:02):
You can't beat that.

Speaker 3 (05:02):
And if you have an older roster and you can
keep the game close and it comes down to one
bucket you need at the very end, then you you can,
you know, get that with some veterans with that half
court offense. But as far as running and gunning, it's
nice to see the next batch of potential NBA stars.
Like my brother texted me last night, He's like, man,
this Jaden McDaniel's cat is good. Like, yeah, he's been

(05:23):
playing since twenty twenty one, but now people are paying
attention to the entire Wolves roster.

Speaker 1 (05:28):
Yeah, honestly, that's that's the name of the game. Youth athleticism,
young turt and sexy, young.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
Turt and sex.

Speaker 1 (05:38):
As the phrase goes, Mary who works here describes herself
as such, mayor mayor works for the odd.

Speaker 2 (05:45):
Couple once in a while.

Speaker 1 (05:46):
Yeah, Cavino esther ya, how you doing Mary? How you
feeling Mary? She goes, feeling young turnt and sexy.

Speaker 2 (05:52):
Why.

Speaker 1 (05:53):
I was like, all right, cool, let me write that
down first.

Speaker 2 (05:56):
So hey, it's hard to compete with. Did you watch
last night?

Speaker 1 (05:58):
And here's my question before we get into some other
goodness here on CNR on a Friday, when a game
is that level of a blowout, are.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
You still watching? Cave?

Speaker 5 (06:09):
You know?

Speaker 1 (06:09):
And I've had this debate for years because Cove is
the type of guy that if the Yankees are winning
or losing, let's say eight to one, he's still watching. Well,
hold on, there's a difference to this conversation, though. I've
always said, if it's your team who doesn't like to
watch their team clobber an opposing team, all right, I'll
sign up and watch that all the all day. If

(06:30):
you're not necessarily a Knicks fan per se, then do
you still watch or do you just get on what
you're not be your chance and to be like, babe,
I'm gonna go grab some food and you know you
love me to go to the supermarket. I'll be back
for the next game. I'm not mad at you if
you're like, well, damn, this game's done, this game's over. Like,
why would you sit there if you're not really invested
in the Knicks or do you want to see? How

(06:51):
guess it's like almost like watching a Yeah, disaster, that's
the question. So that's the difference, Like, yeah, if we're
talking this is my team, Yeah, I'll watch my team
clobber and beat on on somebody all day long. If
your team's really not, if the Knicks aren't your team,
are you are you tuned out for the night? You
go and eat dinner, come back playoff games, bowl games,
Super Bowls when when the scores are blowouts, ratings will

(07:14):
show you people do stray and dip away. What's up?

Speaker 2 (07:18):
dB? You know.

Speaker 6 (07:20):
One of my things with how the NBA streams with
their broadcast partners has been out there's been competition with
this streaming, so if you have a satellite dish or
you have cable, you have to make more of an
effort to go and get the streaming thing, where like
the NFL will have a game streamed, but there's no
other game going on at that time, so you're gonna

(07:40):
have to make the effort. Yeah, last night it was
the opposite because the Knicks and Hawks were on ESPN
and the sixer Celtics were streaming. So last night it
was the reverse of that. So I did flip over
to six or Celtics if it would have been remotely
a good game. I just would have kept it on
because it sounds lazy, but the three clicks of the

(08:02):
remote to get to Peacock, just like, we'll just keep
it on Nix Hawks and instead.

Speaker 1 (08:06):
dB, you're a really classy guy. You're talking about flipping
back and forth. When you were a kid, did you
watch questionable stuff and have the last button on the remote,
like Disney or like a sporting event, Yeah, we all
did it. If Dan mind did it, we all did it, dude.
The last button was all worn out, just standing. You'd
be watching like some HBO late night thing and the

(08:29):
last button was always like Nickelodeon watching night twim notes,
moms really, girls gone wild, girls got wild? You press
last Disney watching a baseball bunch you are, but d me,
that's that's a great point because and you know what
it is too. At a social gathering, a blowout is

(08:51):
funny for a second and then you're like, oh, bummer.
Like if you have some parents over the house from
your kid's team or some of the dads or something.
If the game is that of reach, it goes from
like yo, we'll throw the game on two to like, oh, it's.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
Now what do we do.

Speaker 1 (09:05):
Yeah, there's a lot of people maybe making their way
home or you know, like you said, getting home late
and their plans were ruined. They're like, I'm not watching
this or do you eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox?
Those are the two takeaways. Youth prevails, especially in the
NBA and do you to now when it's such a blowout?

(09:26):
Like it was such a blowout guys that there really
wasn't a point in watching unless you really wanted to
see the Knicks.

Speaker 2 (09:33):
Pound on them.

Speaker 1 (09:34):
And by the way, I did found that find that
quote to back up what we were saying. The NBA
is a young man's game, much like the music industry,
especially the world of rap and hip hop. Right jay Z,
a lot of people were finding out for the first
time that he wrote still Dre.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
That whole song's written by jay Z Still Dre.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
Which is the song every kid loves to play the
piano at a school event and throw everyone far loop
And you know he's talking about that in a recent interview,
and he also says that in the evolving landscape of
hip hop, he's advising older artists to focus on authenticity
rather than chasing trends set by younger rappers, he says

(10:13):
in the New York Times, if you're trying to make
young music and you're old on the older end of things,
it's going to be inauthentic, and people can feel that
it's he's the young man's game. And you need to
know when it's a young man's game. And that doesn't
mean we're rooting for the young guys all the time.
It's it's cool to see, but you know, good luck
to these older dudes in the NBA what we're seeing.

(10:35):
I think as of now, this could change as of now,
like a changing of the guard. By the way, no
cap no caps sounds funny thing unless you, of course,
you're being facetious and joking, and then that's fine, cap
if you're trying to annoy your teenage daughter. Like I
always say to my teenage daughter, am I a chopped unk?
She's like, no, Dad, you're a chud. I'm like, all right, cool,

(10:56):
you know, you try to relate to young people. That's
fine if you're joking around, but I should chu. I mean, like, besides, Sam,
so I'm what a cow choose? And there, well they're
chewing on grasses. Chud, my my impressions that hud, you're
just like a just you're just there. You're just like
sort of a looser, like a like a like a chud. Yeah,

(11:17):
like a slop. So what we're seeing is the youth
prevail on the NBA and the Knicks looked unstoppable last night. Well,
next stop Coopersville. Now next stop for the Knicks. Where
the Knicks going? Next Coopersville Knicks play? When is the
next Knicks game? Don't they haven't even the schedule?

Speaker 2 (11:40):
Probably Tuesday?

Speaker 1 (11:42):
Yeah, I was gonna say the only the only true
game one that's been announced is Monday t Wolve Spurs.

Speaker 2 (11:47):
Then it may be Monday, to be honest with you, Yeah.

Speaker 1 (11:49):
There's another TBD for Monday, so maybe that's it. But
you know what the fun part is on a weekend,
your first weekend of May, we probably have kids sports
and you're, you know, running some errands and doing all
the bs do getting ready for the big fiesta. Could
you know, stock it up? But is guacamole for single tomayo?
And by the way, happy uno demayo. Everybody doesn't have
the same rink, not not yet four days away from

(12:09):
the Fista. But if all goes I guess you would
say right tonight. Danny won't agree with right tonight as
far as the Lakers losing, But there could be four
game sevens this weekend in the NBA. You already have
the Sixers going to Boston on Saturday night, but Sunday.

Speaker 2 (12:26):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (12:26):
But by the way, speaking of young talent, how about
Tyrese Maxey and VJ.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
Edgecombe.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
Again, you're right, it's the young men. It's not even
the biggest names. It's youth and athleticism. You know what
it is. I'm trying to tie those two topics and
discussions together here. You can't play their game if they're
playing a fast paced, high energy game and you're a
younger team or you're an older team like the Lakers.
At this point, Danny g you gotta still play your game,

(12:54):
you know. In the article with jay Z, I'm sorry
I keep tying it back to that, but I did
find it interesting. He says, you know, when it comes
to older artists, you know, wrap your age. He tells
the veterans to stick to stories true to their current life,
their mature life, career, longevity, family business, rather than mimicking,
you know, the ratchet trap of the younger mindset. So

(13:17):
what I'm saying here when I'm tying together is don't
get caught up in that young game because you're gonna
you're gonna lose. You can't keep up with them. You
got to keep your own pace. That that goes in fighting,
that goes in in basketball, goes and anything. If these
if the Lakers could still play their game, they still
have a chance, or any older team for example. Otherwise
these young we're gonna see these young teams win.

Speaker 3 (13:38):
Period because legends are forever. Like Iced T came out
recently and said he's gonna be putting out a new album,
first album in forever because he misses the art of
storytelling and hip hop, you know, but.

Speaker 1 (13:49):
It's gotta be storytelling from his life perspective. Now, Like
that's just general conversation though, right, Danny. I mean, like,
if I'm talking about play your game, is my point,
Like my game now is investing coaching, being a dad.
That's for you. I'm a forty something. You're all got
so okay, but I'll give you another if we pretending Denny.

Speaker 2 (14:10):
No, exactly, he can't.

Speaker 3 (14:11):
Yeah, he's not gonna put out a song with acting
like this gang bang, and he.

Speaker 1 (14:15):
Gives me joy is going out to a nice restaurant
with you guys, or coaching my kids, or gardening in
my yard or watching the game. If I was like, yeah, guys,
go to the club tonight. How inauthentic and lying with
that thing. But the analogy is, if you're in a fight,
you don't want to slug with a slugger. You want
to stick to your game plan and box the slugger
because once you get caught in his game, you're gonna lose.
These older teams got to play their game and control

(14:37):
the pace. Otherwise, these younger teams are definitely, there's no
question about it, gonna win in our career.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
Rich.

Speaker 1 (14:42):
Let's say we're doing an interview and some guy comes
in and he's so subdued. Do you play his game
or do you stay in your lane? Like, No, that's
not I'm not gonna let this dude control the pace
of the show. I'm not gonna let his his demeanor
and his lazy attitude control the pace of what we do.
Stay in your lane. It's your only chance of winning.
Do what you do best. That's how That's the only

(15:05):
way I see this plant painting out in the in
the NBA.

Speaker 4 (15:07):
Well, by the way, guys, the Department of Correction is
called Oh I hope, I'm not going to linguistics jail.
But I might be a chud, but it's actually a
cow chewing a cud.

Speaker 2 (15:18):
I got that wrong.

Speaker 4 (15:19):
I don't be calling at or tweeting at me and saying, hey, man,
how'd you screw that up?

Speaker 2 (15:23):
You know what? There's all the phones are lit up, sick.
I believe that's.

Speaker 4 (15:26):
Why cud versus chuday buyer?

Speaker 1 (15:30):
Can you believe this guy?

Speaker 2 (15:30):
But we're from the Midwest, Dan, this is embarrassing.

Speaker 1 (15:33):
Understand no retraction the world would have what would have done?

Speaker 6 (15:36):
Well, it's one of those things that would eat away
at Sam. It was at the weekend because I'd be like,
I know better than that. Well I know better and
we corrected it, so thank you. So in other words, yourself.
The only way to beat in Oklahoma City Thunder or
a Timberwolves or any team that's going to continue moving
on play your game, is to play your game, because

(15:58):
it's going to be hard to keep up with them, period,
the end of story. That's that's the way I see it. Well,
let me tell you this based on how things go today.
We got three great NBA playoff games today.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
If they go a certain way, we could be looking
at a Sunday Game seven triple header. Now I'm sure
that may have happened before, but not often. I bet
you could very well have. It's great for raining. You
could very well have a Sunday where Raptors, Caves, Rockets, Lakers,
Magic Pistons are triple header Game seven Bonanza. They should

(16:32):
call it that triple header Bonanza Sunday NBA National Bonanza Association.

Speaker 3 (16:38):
I feel like the Magic, though, are going to get
their three points shot back at home at dB. Is
there any injury update on Wagner because they they were
lacking on.

Speaker 2 (16:47):
The boards and so last night he is okay.

Speaker 3 (16:50):
So they lacked some size there and the Pistons were
all over those offensive boards.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
All these points spreads are under five, So it's a
three and a half point favorite, Cleveland on the road
a four and a half point favorite, and Houston at
home three and a half point favorite. So I'm really
scared for the Lakers tonight. Danny g i As, as
we pointed out yesterday, I want to go game. You

(17:15):
don't want to go game seven.

Speaker 3 (17:16):
But if it stretches out to a game seven, then
I'm like, every day is important for Luca's return.

Speaker 1 (17:21):
That's the silver lining. That's just a silver lining if
you lose him. Barnando used to say, instead of like
a hecks, he called the shamboozi. Oh like if you're
jinxing somebody that. He would say, jamboozy, the jam boozy,
jam boozy.

Speaker 2 (17:33):
There's just a word he did.

Speaker 1 (17:34):
The media put the shamboozi, the jamboozy jambooze on Lebron
when they said, you know, he's never lost a series.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
When he's up to.

Speaker 1 (17:44):
Again, he's gonna have to find that second win and
play his game because the energy hasn't been the same
in the past few games, is what we saw in
the beginning. So you know, maybe they're gassed or maybe
they're pacing out. Like Danny g said, I don't know, Well,
don't know, we'll see tonight. Much like I predicted the
NBA playoffs would pull us all in.

Speaker 6 (18:02):
I will say one thing about that Lakers Rocket series,
because I've heard it a couple of times on the broadcast,
and how the Rockets feel if the Rockets would have
won Game three. I don't think it's a given they
win Game four to what you're saying with the Lakers
energy or maybe lack thereof, they may have gotten lack
of days a call because they got up three to zero.
If they lose that game three, I think the Lakers

(18:24):
have a better chance of actually winning that Game four
in Houston. I also just think the Lakers are a
better team. So if if if Kevin Durant's not going
to play for Houston, I'm still signing with the Lakers.
But I think that there's this conversation that, yeah, Houston
should be up three to two in this series, you
know right now, And I don't necessarily agree with that.

Speaker 1 (18:43):
It's so funny that on a on a on a
children's level, in an adult rec league level, in every
level of sports, you played different with a lead, Like
you could pretend it's not a factor. You could be
like they're pro, it's not like it's it's a weird
it's a weird feeling, like like the dumbest analogy, like
if you're playing grown men's softball and your team's winning

(19:05):
twelve two, you're not playing different than if it's like
six six in the last inning, Like a sense of
urgency like you like you could you could try to
that aside and be like, no, no, no, I'm gonna play
the same way no matter what. But I agree with
Dan Bayer had had the Lakers not been up early
like that series, like there is a sense of.

Speaker 2 (19:26):
Well, we're up three.

Speaker 7 (19:26):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (19:27):
You could tell yourself all day we're playing with the
same intensity. But you're not. No, you're definitely not. That's
why Shack criticized them. Man the hero ball comment. Well,
with that said, your thoughts, next most interactive show here
on Fox Sports Radio Convin and Rich, we are gonna
get to a really hilarious hypothetical. It has to do
with booty or sports. Is it a young man? It's

(19:49):
just a young man's league, and we're witnessing it right
now more than ever before. In fact, let's go to
so Cal Danny G. Who we got the infamous Matt
in socol Yo, Matdi Matt, you're on the show. It's
somebody Yo, want some guys.

Speaker 8 (20:01):
Colvino and Rich natural contact it back by since Herbs,
I told Danny G.

Speaker 9 (20:06):
I don't know how you guys gonna.

Speaker 5 (20:07):
Do the best of this week.

Speaker 8 (20:08):
I mean, you guys went from mixtapes, burning CDs, a
broadcasting live from Snake Mountain, and I think my favorite
is when you guys broke into Fred Flintstone and Barney
Rubbles sharing a Winston.

Speaker 1 (20:20):
Oh yeah, I forgot about that. Hey, Barnie, you want
to smoke ye? By the way, speaking of old school rappers,
my favorite old school rapper Barney Rubble, Oh yeah, he's
the rapping master and he's here to say.

Speaker 10 (20:36):
I love fruity pebbles in a major way. He loves
fruity pebbles in a major way. Fred, Yes, real quick.

Speaker 8 (20:49):
The NBA thing, I mean, in a historic blowout like that,
it's kind of fun to watch the fans reactions like
one the next fans that were there, but just like
the agony of the Hawks fans. And as far as
the young young man's game in the NBA, I mean,
I've been lucky enough to see a lot of these
guys out here in socaw Tyrese Maxi, Paula Vanceero, Kate Cunningham,
or at camps out here, Carter Bryan, San Antonio Spurs.

(21:11):
I mean, these guys are as talented as you're seeing.
But also I'll speak to the work. I think these
guys really put in the work and you're seeing the

Did it dawn on you last night? That last night
was dirtier than anything Magic City and I could have
provided for Orleana. They were concerned about that last night

(22:05):
was vulgar, if he asked me, yeah, thank god.

Speaker 2 (22:08):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (22:09):
I saw some of the memes about that. Yeah, I
can't say some of them on the air. Sam will
beat me all right. I did want to bring up
this article that you, Danny and I were passing around
this morning. It's a very interesting hypothetical. Is it about
a Florida high school? It is, buddy boy, and listen,

(22:30):
when you're a teenage boy. I think it's very safe
to say when I was a teenage boy, when you
were a teenage When I was a young Ward was
a young Ward Hall. Little dog that was on pitch,
that was a young Ward Hal Charlie.

Speaker 2 (22:53):
It's gonna be a pass for me dog.

Speaker 1 (22:55):
Damn. You guys are a rough crowd. Sorry, sorry, there
is Simon Kel. The two most important things in my
life were sports and girls. In fact, you could argue
that every grown man their favorite things are sports and women.
So when you have to decide between sports and booty,

(23:17):
that to me, what was that movie one of our
parents have Sophie's choice? To me, the Sophie's choice is
like booty or your team? Well, far to high school
baseball team season ended because the seniors chose to go
to prom instead of a playoff game all five seniors.
So it wasn't just like a few went all five

(23:38):
seniors playoffs went with the prom and it was only
three upperclassmen that actually showed up, so meaning like three
I guess juniors that weren't going over the JV squad
took their place. But five seniors, five keys players didn't
go to the playoff game and they had a twelve
and one season and they ended up losing the game.

(24:00):
So they lost the game. The seniors were in no show.

Speaker 2 (24:04):
What did that?

Speaker 1 (24:04):
I think they lost the game twelve one. I think
I thought they were twelve one. Yeah, I think that
wasn't scored revealed. NASA's twelve to one season ending defeat
came with all five of their seniors opting to attend
a prompt. Okay, what was their season record then? Okay,
so they lost twelve to one even worse.

Speaker 2 (24:20):
It's like a Knicks blowout.

Speaker 1 (24:21):
Yeah, so the story here is the upper classman, the
five seniors skipped the playoffs for their school to go
to a prom. Okay, proms are important. I want to
make this very clear when we discuss it. Nothing grinds
my goat more than the person that's like and Danny
g it's no knocking you because I can't wait to
hear danng side. But I know he didn't go to

(24:43):
his prom. I don't know his choice or his reasoning.
Maybe it's different here in California. But it's like the
person who's like, I didn't take a picture for the yearbook,
I'm like, why loser? Yeah, I don't know. To me,
I'm not saying that the proms not important?

Speaker 7 (25:00):
Right?

Speaker 3 (25:00):
And I didn't say that either, Ok. I wasn't bragging saying,
oh I didn't go. I haven't watched one episode of
filling the popular show.

Speaker 1 (25:07):
The person that brags about not watching the hot show.

Speaker 2 (25:10):
It wasn't that.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
It was just at my school, sports were more important
than the prom.

Speaker 1 (25:14):
And uh, I think I might agree with you there,
Danny G. I'm still processing this story, and I don't
want to like deter Rich from his strong take here either.
So well luck if you I have a strong take,
that's not changing. I want the Fox Sports Radio Nation
to start calling now on John Kenyonis, what would you
do for an old school I look like John Kenyonis

(25:35):
you have if I look like John ken Junius, you
look like Eli Manning bro All right? So anyway, you
know what would you do? Or the old school NFL?
You make the call. Let's say there's two ways to
look at this. Yeah, we all remember what it was
like to play high school sports, right, it's important our
lives revolved around it. Correct, So what would you have done?

(25:56):
And you know now we're at the age where hey,
we're parents, what would you advise your kid to do
in that situation? Playing that game or go to the prom?
And I think I have a solution that should have
been should have happened in my opinion where I think
about it. So here here's my take, and very hard
to tell me I'm wrong, because I'm so I'm so adamant.

(26:19):
I think I think there's there's a clear reason to
tell you you're wrong, now that I think about it.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
Guess what. There's one prom, it's a memory.

Speaker 1 (26:29):
If you have a high school sweetheart, you take the
limo the party bus with your friends, you go to
the prom. You go into the big city that weekend,
everyone goes to get a shorehouse. That's how we did
it on the East Coast.

Speaker 2 (26:43):
Wherever you go to the lake house, wherever you live,
it's it's your prom. You wear a.

Speaker 1 (26:48):
Thomas Tom is very special if especially if you have
a high school sweetheart, it's your moment. A lot of
guys lose their V card at the problem a lot
of guys. That's a very special moment to me. I'm
the most competitive guy, you know. I still play adult
men rex sports because I love playing sports. But if
you play baseball in high school, unless you're going on

(27:09):
to be a pro, unless you're a top prospect, does
it what's more important a game you're gonna end up playing,
Babe Ruth or Connie Mack or I played men's baseball
and tails like twenty five. You play all these games,
there's one prom. This is a no doubter, not even
thinking about it. I'm going to the prom with my

(27:30):
high school sweetheart. We're going in the limo. I'm getting
my tuxedo. I'm putting the croissant crossage, croissant, croissant, croissage
to corissage.

Speaker 2 (27:42):
You bone head, You're gonna put a pastry on her wrist.
It's cut, not chud, chud, not cut.

Speaker 1 (27:49):
I'm gonna put a croissants croissant.

Speaker 2 (27:53):
We stopped at the bakery prior to all right, it's
an edible corossant. Let me explain my side.

Speaker 1 (27:57):
The more I thought about it, because when I first
of the story, there's no doubt the problems are importance.
I'm not downplaying the importance of a prom and you're
one problem and all that, But I'll tell you why
you're wrong. When you sign up to play on a team,
you make a commitment to that team. There's no iron
team because it's about the team, and it's not a team.
Unless you show up for your team, And can't you

(28:18):
play your playoff game and then meet up with everybody
after and celebrate, You're.

Speaker 2 (28:22):
Gonna miss your prom.

Speaker 1 (28:23):
I think if you're in the playoffs and you committed
to the team and you care about your team, yeah
you gotta go to that game. That's just how it is. Like,
I think, you make that commitment and you have to play.
The schedule makers he got it sucks And I'm not
saying it's an easy decision by any means, but I'm
saying there's there's a compromise, Like you after the game,

(28:44):
you can't show up late and meet where everybody else
is or roll up in your uniform.

Speaker 2 (28:49):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (28:49):
There's there's ways to make it. I mean, look at
Colin at Chicago.

Speaker 2 (28:52):
He goes.

Speaker 1 (28:52):
Unless you're on a scholarship or headed to a promising
post high school career, you're gonna skip your prom?

Speaker 5 (28:58):
No way.

Speaker 2 (28:59):
Tell you what.

Speaker 1 (28:59):
My baseball memories way cooler than my prom memories. I
don't care about the prom all that much. And I
had a great relationship. I had a great prom. But
I'm saying it wasn't like that great for me. Like
your problem, was it the the greatest memories? Well that
for me, it was it whatever night. It was whatever.

Speaker 2 (29:17):
Man.

Speaker 1 (29:18):
So I'd rather be there for my team, because that's
where your obligation is. Like the one is an obligation
you committed to that team. One is like about your girlfriend?
What about your date? I think you don't understand that
your high school sweetheart your first the first.

Speaker 2 (29:33):
List of your life unless you get her pregnant.

Speaker 1 (29:36):
Yeah, you could say, are you you could see to
say you're not going pro or you're marrying your high
school girlfriend. I love my high school glfriend. I didn't
marry her. I'm just saying, I don't know. I think
it's no brainer. I don't know. I mean, no one
wants to miss their prom. But this is a big game.
It was a playoff game for this team. And if
it was such a clear cut decision, it wouldn't be

(29:57):
a national study. I think that's why supid high school.
But I think that's why it's a national story. And
as any both anyone will tell you looking back, like
high school sports are a big part of our life.
But is it the end all be all? Probably not,
Damn bayer Les, there's the problem. Let's get an update.
Let's see what's going on.

Speaker 6 (30:12):
What's up, buddy, Yeah, Piston's Magic starting at seven o'clock
Eastern time in Orlando with the Magic up three to two,
Calves and Raptors. Seven thirty Eastern. Brandon Ingram was downgraded
downgraded to doubtful by Toronto because of his heel issue.
Calves up three to two in that series. Nine to
thirty Eastern time, it's the Lakers and Rockets. No Kevin
Durant again, Fort Houston out with the sprained ankle. Lakers

(30:33):
up three to two in the series. Matt's president David
Sterns told MLB dot Com the team doesn't intend to
fire manager Carlos Mendoza. At ten and twenty one, they
have the worst record in baseball. Stern stole the site
that despite their struggles, they don't view this as a quote.
Manager problem end quotet got here.

Speaker 1 (31:58):
We're live from the Fox Sports Radio Student and his
time for our tire rack play of the Day. We're
all getting raises our bosses on Cloud nine after his
Timberwolves advance.

Speaker 2 (32:09):
Bill Martin will sound and this series is over. With
a one tight win.

Speaker 10 (32:16):
In Game six, the Temperwolves close out the Denver Nuggets.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
And that's a good tip, by the way, if if
you know your boss with sports teams, never have a
good like an important work conversation if his team loses. No, No,
And that's why we think it. That's why we picked
it the play of the day, just to get on
his good side.

Speaker 2 (32:33):
In fact, Scott's Mini Minneapolis.

Speaker 4 (32:35):
His teams in Minneapolis are having quite the moment with
the Wild winning their i think their first playoff series
in like eleven years. So you got the Wild advancing,
you got the Timberwolves advancing. Scott Shapiro's on cloud nine.

Speaker 2 (32:46):
Dang dong. The Nuggets are dead.

Speaker 3 (32:48):
Your guys's raises are He's gonna get you some free
wings after the show.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
Yeah, we we're gonna write them off as a company expense.
That was a courtesy of k Fan one oh one
hundred point three Timberwolves Radio Network, and that was our
tire Ract Play of the Day. For over forty years, Tireract,
they've been helping customers find the right tires for how,
what and where they drive. Ship fast and free back
by free road hazard protection, convenient installation options like mobile
tire installation, tirerac dot com.

Speaker 2 (33:13):
The way tire buying should be.

Speaker 1 (33:15):
Okay, So back to your feedback. Eight seven, seven ninety
nine on Fox, dandyg on standby waiting just to say hi.
The national story again. It's the story because it's a
tough decision. We all agree on that what would you
had done and what would you advise your kid to do?
This Florida team made it to the playoffs high school
team and five seniors were no show, so they lost.

(33:38):
They got beaten pretty badly because there was really no upperclassmen.
There three upperclassmen, but all five seniors went to their
prom instead of the playoff. Then I get it, because
you got one prom and unless you're like state championship
bounds college scholarship, you're gonna play in college or you
plan on getting drafted. If you're just a regular kid
playing high school baseball, and that's sort of it, you're

(33:58):
gonna miss your prom.

Speaker 2 (34:00):
You're not going to get in the limo with the
tuxedo with your girlfriend.

Speaker 1 (34:02):
I look at it like, where's your commitment? Like I
looked at baseball like that's my commitment, Like like your job,
Like you're committed to your job. You're not going to
just dip out on your job because something else came up, right,
So like you're not going to dip out on your
team just because like the prom is there. Hopefully your
girlfriend understands.

Speaker 3 (34:20):
Rich what if that's your only opportunity to play in
a playoff game.

Speaker 1 (34:24):
Or what about like potential scholarships? Like I just I
think that, by the way, I think that's a major factor.
Like how good are you? How good is your team?

Speaker 2 (34:32):
That does matter?

Speaker 1 (34:33):
I agree with you that that's a big factor. If
you plan on a career in baseball, you're going to
play in college, you might get drafted. Hell, maybe you've
been drafted already and you're finishing out your your high
school career. In fact, I heard a lot of kids
out here, you know, Shamanad, Notre Dame. There's some big
high schools for baseball. You know what they do, they
tell these kids if they get drafted, we're shutting you
down the rest of the year. You know why, because

(34:55):
now you are part of a bigger picture and there's
some projection going on a lot of us or you know, looking.
You said the problem was your greatest night ever, Like
the problem from me was great, not the greatest that ever.
But I got it on video and I was bored
watching it. I was like, it's it's okay.

Speaker 2 (35:09):
It was all right.

Speaker 1 (35:09):
It was fun, and I'm not My relationship with my
girlfriend was very special to you. Phrase that used to
say when we were single, guys, which one? What do
guys love to say? It's not cheating if you keep
your socks on?

Speaker 2 (35:20):
Not that one? Which one?

Speaker 1 (35:22):
What do guys love to say? Guys love to say
bros before hose. You would always say the opposite, because
I'm not sleeping with you before bros. Yeah, so I
used to say that. I wasn't going to bring that
up on national radio, but I'm glad he did. Rich
perfect more CNR. Next, and your phone calls.

Speaker 2 (35:40):
A's a man.

Speaker 1 (35:42):
They're just the A's.

Speaker 2 (35:43):
They have no uh I know, I call him the
Sacramento I a A.

Speaker 1 (35:47):
They're homeless hobos. Well, they're playing in Sacramento. We'll explain.
Is a story about them hobo a transition? Was some
of their future leaked? We'll explain. But right now we're
wrapping up with your phone calls At eight seven, seven
to ninety nine on Fox. There was a playoff baseball
game between West Nassau High School and Sewanee High School
that garnered national attention for which is unexpected for a

(36:13):
three A Florida high school baseball game. But it's because
they had the prom and the playoff game scheduled at
the same time. I mean, that's just terrible planning about
the school, district and everyone involved. But if you read
all the comments, you know they can't have the district
like coordinates six hundred different proms for the playoff, right,
why don't do that? And then there's a lot of

(36:33):
feedback too, like you're really overrating what a prom is nowadays.
I understand the promposals are a big deal, but a
lot of people goof off of them and they head
off to another party anyway, Like, but I'm saying that
they go You've ben talked about it. Promposals high school? Sweet,
that's a big thing. I get it, But yeah, I
also think that your girlfriend would understand it. You're committed
to a team and you can meet up later on.

(36:54):
You think like a high school romances though, because because
guess who missed it? Five seniors missed the game, right,
and their ace pitcher who would have pitched, also missed
the game. Let me try to find it. He has
a zero nine to four e R, this kid, and
he missed the game and.

Speaker 2 (37:10):
They got clawbered.

Speaker 1 (37:12):
Senior pitcher Fisher Bennett skipped the game as well, and
they got beat as a result. So it became a
story of what would you do. It's not an easy decision, No,
that's for sure. I mean, but if you read the feedback,
my god, it's so divided. Well because it's a it's
a I look at it this way. No bigger competitive
guy than me, But I'm going with the problem. You

(37:33):
have one prom. You keep saying that, but you're going
to the prom, so maybe you know, maybe you're not.
I would priority. I look back and I say, it's
not even on. It's about commitment, not competitiveness. Like you
make a commitment to the team, but you also make
a commitment to yourself and your girlfriend. And you know,
like you said, you live one time. You have one

(37:54):
senior prom, and some people are like, didn't even.

Speaker 2 (37:58):
Then, dude.

Speaker 1 (37:59):
As a high school kid, baseball was everything to me.
But you know, I would think today my high school girlfriend,
I would have found it very hard.

Speaker 2 (38:05):
I think you were just horned up because I am.

Speaker 1 (38:07):
My night wasn't that special, and I had a wonderful
high school relationship, So I'm not downplaying any importance of that.
Either depends on how good you are too. Like I said,
I really think that uh factor. Don't make it sound
like it's not like if you're a team that like
leaked into the playoffs and you were gonna get whooped,
or you know, like I said, if you're a scholarship
cares any way, you were telling a sixteen seventeen year

(38:29):
old to me to miss a baseball game, I don't
think that was happening. Yeah, but when all your friends
are going in a limo or a party bus, let's
be honest, and you're drinking, you're sneaking. I wouldn't have
cared about that nowhere near as much as getting my
name and facing the paper for the playoffs paper. Yeah,
that's that went make way more to me. You didn't
get your picture of paper in high school if you
played I lived in New York the Daily News. It's

(38:51):
not the printing high school results they did for me.
You and never in the Daily News. Or New York
postar Ledgers the same equivalent, you bonehead him weakessed you
is the paper? No, it's the same thing, you numb skull,
you chud. You think the Jersey thing. You think the
biggest paper in New Jersey, New Jersey. You think the
Jersey has the same cloud as the New York.

Speaker 2 (39:10):
It's the same.

Speaker 1 (39:11):
It's not the same cloud because it's a different state.
But if you're making all state, where do you think
they're posting that in the newspaper? That's what I went that.
I think you go to the obviously it's online, and
you go for now, you go to the problem and
make memories. You know you played ball. Bus You're missing
my point. It would have been a tough sell to
tell a kid whose life revolved around baseball to miss
the game. I don't think I would have the more

(39:32):
I think about it, it's not an easy decision, but
I don't think I would have. So you can't tell
me you're the most competitive guy ever, but you would
have chose the corny party. I'm the one guy in
that still plays competitives because you're still searching for that glory.
I guess no, because you would have just sports the
party bus, get out of here. That's that's that's lame
to me now I think about it. You don't enjoy

(39:52):
your cumber bun. I'm trying to win a game at
that stage of my life. No cumber bun, I said,
but you say cinnamon buns. Let's go to your phone call.
Let's start with Boise Bob, Boise Bob, what's up?

Speaker 2 (40:06):
Man?

Speaker 5 (40:07):
Hey, what's up? Fella's Rich? I can't I can't believe
I get to crack you twice in the same week.

Speaker 1 (40:13):
Hey, well, you have to remember when Rich thinks to
everything he says is correct because he's rich, I mean facts. Yeah,
but that's not true. Hey, Boise Bob, just here, as
you said, it doesn't mean because he rich is so
high in himself, He's like it must be great because
I said it. That's not how it works. There's two
sides to the story. You think you're not the most
arrogant guy, because if you've got to put yourself in
a in a kid's mindset whose life revolves around sports boys,

(40:37):
boy that revolves around you think boy cares about dancing
at a prom, dancing or like getting booty from his
high school sweetheart, drinking and drinking in a limo drink.
The news to you, high schoolkids are getting booty regardless
of the prom Okay, you know what, I want to
slim your head against the counter.

Speaker 2 (40:50):
Let's go the phone call. Hey care for Yeah, Boise,
Bob is still there? Oh Bob?

Speaker 1 (40:56):
Hey?

Speaker 2 (40:56):
Sorry? Sorry? Mom and dad are fighting.

Speaker 5 (40:57):
Hi, Bob good Rich's problem is he's too busy trying
to make sure out of a chriscan on somebody's wrist
so that he can get a little action. You can
chase tale the rest of your life. You can only
chase glory but a few moments in your lifetime. No
matter how big that glory is for you, you go

(41:18):
play the game. Man.

Speaker 1 (41:20):
That's how at first I saw how difficult of a
decision this is for a high school kid. The more
I think about it as a seventeen year old or
a kid playing varsity, there's no way I'm missing that game.

Speaker 3 (41:30):
You need some albundie stories Rich, All right, let's go
to Vegas.

Speaker 1 (41:34):
Especially if the team is counting on you. Because there's
one picture who was the ace? If he's such an ace,
do we'd be hearing about this kid getting a scholarship.
You be hearing about this kid. He's already been drafted. Dude,
he had an under one er. He's their guy. I
don't know how competitive this you said, this is like
a small town matter because it's all they know, so
what you know. It might not in the grand scheme

(41:56):
of things. Yeah, a big deal, but it's a big
deal to them and that town of wherever they are
in Florida. Let's go trip in Vegas is back trip.

Speaker 9 (42:06):
Hey, gentlemen, rich you know I love you Tavino. You're
my guy always. Hey, I had a chance. I already
had everything booked for the prom done. We got invited
to this prestigious golf tournament, and then at that tournament,
I actually signed my lever of intent and we won,
so I could care. Like the callers said, glory is glory.
I mean, girls come and go with having the glory
was what was exciting for me.

Speaker 1 (42:26):
But you're guaranteeing some type of glory. What if they
would have got whooped? What if it was like a
lackluster game. They like, we.

Speaker 3 (42:31):
Don't know until you play the game. I mean it
would division based on what if we lose.

Speaker 1 (42:37):
It would vate me alive to not be there for
the team. I think, all right, And like I said,
what would you tell your kid, because you know we're
adults now, I would have I would leave it up
to my kid. Hey, this is your decision, but I
would I think I would advise my kid to wear them.
You made a commitment to this team. I would tell
my kid, you have one problem. You're not going to
want to look back and be like I skip my prom.

Speaker 2 (42:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (42:58):
But like I said, they they party afterward the game
is like are they I mean that again? This is
just poor scheduling. I'm sure there should be some adjustment made.
Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. It's a national
story for a reason. For a reason, one.

Speaker 2 (43:14):
Less called let's go to Alabama, Todd. We're never going
to agree. Guys, what's up Alabama?

Speaker 8 (43:22):
Hey guys, what's going on the So I I played
a baseball playoff game and went to the prom same night.

Speaker 2 (43:31):
It was well, we started at one o'clock, moved up,
the game ended up being thirteen innings, we won.

Speaker 1 (43:41):
Well, that's what I'm saying that they should make some
type of compromise to kids, basically say move the game up. Yeah,
So they can say to live the perfect life of Alabama.
What's the name Todd Toabama? Toad Alabama? Todd got it right,
I mean they should move the game. This should not
be an issue to begin with. I think it's awful
to put a kid in that scenario. Is your senior
prom or or play in a playoff game? Like that's

(44:03):
that's something a kit shouldn't have to choose. Schedule makers
put it in AI make it work. Who else? We
all wrap it up with him?

Speaker 2 (44:12):
Yeah, we wrapped it with Todd.

Speaker 1 (44:14):
Thank you, Todd. Now there's another baseball story which is
kind of funny. This is funny, and it involves I
called them the Sacramento Ace because they play in Sacramento,
but legally it might be going the mud Skippers Stadium.
What's it called the what I always forget like some
sort of like catfish. What is it?

Speaker 2 (44:31):
MUDs? Mudcats? Mud?

Speaker 1 (44:34):
Not the Mudcats. It's not Sacramento mud Skippers, the Scaleywangs.

Speaker 2 (44:40):
I got it.

Speaker 1 (44:41):
I always forget rich and I have been there there
again to watch them play.

Speaker 2 (44:45):
Right it is Sutter Health Park.

Speaker 1 (44:47):
Yeah yeah, but what is the name of the team
that plays there? The mud Chickens. No, it's like the
mud Mud Mud is it? Mutter grabbers, the tough mutters.
So they play at a minor league state in Sacramento,
River Cat River Cats. There it is.

Speaker 2 (45:04):
That was way off.

Speaker 1 (45:05):
They played at the River Cats sampsonight, and it's such
a great vibe because all the old people in the
community are there welcoming you to the ball people your score.
The people that scan your tickets were like, like really
nice seniors that like can't like they're probably have a
great time with the bulge. My name's Ebenezer. And it's

(45:25):
a really cool ballpark feel, and that's what they're playing until,
of course they make Vegas their home, I guess. But
much like the Tennessee Titans, who weeks ago shipped out
merch to fans that had a new logo on it
and then the team's like, oh, yeah, by the way,

(45:46):
that's our new logo. It's very Houston oilers like it
was a little I guess you would say, what a misstep.
I guess. There was a posting and the story today
is did the A's really leak the Las Vegas name
change in a job posting?

Speaker 2 (46:04):
So we don't we don't know if this is legitter,
or at.

Speaker 1 (46:06):
Least a placeholder name, because there are jobs posted to
work for the new Vegas baseball team that'll be there soon,
the now A's soon to be Vegas whoever. Yeah, and
the job postings were listed under hey, do you want
to work for the Las Vegas Blackfire?

Speaker 2 (46:24):
That was what was in the location on the job posting.

Speaker 1 (46:27):
And people like they were removed and reposted without the
Blackfire after people caught win. So you know, we speculated,
we said, my I remember the answer I went with.
I was like, they should call themselves the Aliens because
they could keep the A logo the Las Vegas Aliens,
but go with the A's.

Speaker 2 (46:46):
But Vegas kid in the backyard saw alien.

Speaker 1 (46:49):
Yes you could. I mean they already there's so many
like Area fifty one, the Vada references like make the
stadium almost spaceship, like I mean the Raiders statum looks
like a room, but you know, like just I think
it's a great angle. The Vegas fifty ones said death
Star wrong. Yeah, So so is it gonna be the

(47:12):
Las Vegas Blackfire? Or now that they get a public response,
does it backfire? Because I don't see people really saying
that they love it. I think it's actually pretty cool.
Though what I'm saying some are saying that might be
just like like a peak, like a holding place, like
a marketing firm holding name Vegas Black the Las Vegas Blackfire.

Speaker 2 (47:31):
I don't even know what that means.

Speaker 1 (47:33):
I know Danny g looked it up and he said,
it's some sort of firm out there, But like, is
that a reference to gambling or is there some some
sort of Vegas reference that I don't know to that.
I do think it's wild that they can't keep the
A's the Athletics without some type of like do you
think this is an opportunity for that franchise to restart

(47:54):
or do you think it would be a shame to
lose a franchise with such a legendary color ski and
name as the Athletics, that that green and gold, that
green and yellow go all this class. I mean that
Why did they say they can't keep the color scheme?
They could keep? Remember said they couldn't keep the name?
Did we talk about this? Very few teams in sports
and baseball with green right?

Speaker 2 (48:15):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (48:15):
They were the only Yeah in baseball, they're the only team. Yeah,
So unless you want to count like the Mariners got
a hint of green, I think.

Speaker 3 (48:23):
And an update on this, MSN is reporting that the
term Blackfire in Vegas refers to a coworking space located
near the A's Ballpark Experience Center.

Speaker 2 (48:33):
So very specific, so like a little placeholder of a name.

Speaker 1 (48:35):
But but I do wonder what would it take and
should they try to somehow work out a deal to
keep the A's colors and and name. It makes me
think of you know, you got to keep things like
this top secret when it comes to naming a team,
a business, a baby, a baby, especially because I remember

(48:57):
my mom.

Speaker 2 (48:58):
I act.

Speaker 1 (48:58):
I made the accident of telling my mom, and now
you're looking back at.

Speaker 2 (49:02):
You know, she was right, because I'm happy with what
I went with.

Speaker 1 (49:04):
But we made the mistake of telling my mom what
we were thinking about naming my daughter back in the day,
and I sort of slipped in conversation. She's like, what
you're gonna name her of that? And I don't want
to say it to offend anybody. She goes, that's a
She's like, that's an ugly girl's name. Let's see, let's
just put it that like she said something along those lines.

(49:26):
I'm like, oh, she sort of ruined it for me. Now,
ugly girl's name, I'm not gonna now now I can't
name her. That's why. That's why sometimes you don't leave
it up to you, don't it up to people. You
just decide to put it out there just to see
what it was. Sort of buzzed that they gather oh people.
To me, it feels more like a placeholder. I'm just
more intrigued. Besides this name Covino. Do if you were
a fan of that franchise, or you are in Vegas

(49:48):
and you're like, sw we were getting a baseball team.
Do you like the idea of a fresh go or
do you like the idea of no?

Speaker 2 (49:55):
Man?

Speaker 1 (49:55):
Those are historic colors and the athletics if rebranded a
little bit could be cool. Or do you say no, no,
that's I don't want you like do you look at
that Vegas doesn't have any sort of uniform color. I
mean they're black and gold and black and silver and right,
so there's no uniform uniformity like like a Pittsburgh would have.

Speaker 3 (50:13):
I say, keep the colors, change the name, but but
keep the a as you said, that would be dope.

Speaker 1 (50:20):
Yeah, because there's always that balance cove of keeping tradition alive,
but also like starting fresh, like Vegas has an opportunity
to really rebrand, like new merch, new vibes. You know,
Vegas has a baseball team. Do you want to shed
all of the history of the A's or you're like, no, no,
there's a lot of legacy there, the Bash brothers, Dave Stewart,

(50:41):
Reggie and Jackson Ay go back to Catfish Raleigh Fingers.
I mean, as much as you can, just because you
want to pull that that fan base. You know, you
want to keep as many fans possible as you can
and win over some new ones.

Speaker 6 (50:54):
One one reason to maybe keep the name was it's
not exclusive to Oakland. They were the athletic in previous
stops in Kansas City and Philadelphia, so it's a name
that has.

Speaker 2 (51:04):
Traveled to different spots as well.

Speaker 6 (51:07):
So why it would stay with Oakland wouldn't have been
in tradition with the actual nickname if you kept it
in Las Vegas.

Speaker 1 (51:13):
I'm curious if you surveyed all athletics fans, would they say,
you know, they're moving to Vegas, We're pumped about it.
Keep the name or do you think the baseball world
would benefit more Cabino from like a fresh new like yeah,
they're the you know, the Vegas Alien invaders or something. Right, Well,
my understanding was they couldn't keep the name. I would negotiating.

(51:36):
I would at least keep the colors, to keep some
of the tradition, because I don't know if you followed
what I said, if you're starting a new franchise, you
still want to get as many old fans as you can,
not just new fans. So you want to keep the
old Dave Stewart, Dave Parker, Ricky Henderson fans, the Rolly
Finger fans from yesteryear, and then went over new Vegas
fans as well. So keep the colors, change the name,

(51:59):
and you know, start something new at the same time.
But as of now, the rumor is Vegas Blackfire. Was
this leaked? Was this sort of testing the waters to
see what the feedback was. I don't hate it by
any means, but or just a placeholder and Cavino do
you think, I mean, what did the million dollar man
teach us when we were kids.

Speaker 2 (52:20):
That everybody has a price.

Speaker 1 (52:21):
So I mean, if they want the athletics name, yeah,
they can negotiate. They could get it just has a
lot of money. There's a lot there's a lot of
flow flowing around. So all right, your thoughts on that,
and plus next we play Brainwave. You want in eight seven, seven,
nine nine on Fox, you could play our favorite game.
Gets us into the weekend, We'll play Brainwave. We'll do

I'll explain the rules.

Speaker 2 (53:51):
Isaiah in Boise was the first three.

Speaker 1 (53:53):
Hey Isaiah, A.

Speaker 5 (53:56):
Yo, what's up?

Speaker 3 (53:57):
Long time listener? Love you guys, thank you, thank you brother.

Speaker 5 (54:04):
And by the way earlier, I have your back, Ridge.

Speaker 8 (54:06):
I'm totally on board with you.

Speaker 3 (54:08):
I didn't get to go to prom and and I've
got your back on that one for sure.

Speaker 2 (54:12):
Yeah, you know, I thought about it.

Speaker 1 (54:13):
More people that want to go to promo probably sucked
at baseball.

Speaker 2 (54:16):
Get out of.

Speaker 3 (54:17):
Here, all right, here we go. I have five rounds
ready to go. Our contestant needs to win two of
them to be the champ and walk away with a
CNR prize pack. I'm gonna ask a question and then
give three debatable answers to choose from the six of
us in studio are going to write down our answers
on these dry erase boards. Hold them up, boys, So
get onto our YouTube channel right now. Then, on the

(54:38):
count of three, caller shouts out his answer, Isaiah, you
got a match with four out of the six of
us to win the round or no matter his answer.
If all six of us match, he automatically gets that round.

Speaker 2 (54:48):
Are you ready? Yeah, ready, let's go. All right, here
we go Round one. Let's start with the relationship category.

Speaker 1 (54:56):
Love it, let's go.

Speaker 2 (54:56):
And by the way, Bursch is here on his last
day at FSR. Oh, this is a bye bye Perca moment.

Speaker 3 (55:02):
His better half is here to witness those relationship category?
Which of these is worse? When trying to watch a
show with your significant other, her face is stuck in
her phone, she starts comparing scenes to your personal life,
or she keeps getting up to do other things, which

(55:22):
is worse. Oh, face in her phone starts comparing scenes
to your personal life, or she keeps getting up to
do other things.

Speaker 1 (55:30):
And the question is when you're watching a show with
your significant Yeah, right, when you're watching a show?

Speaker 2 (55:39):
Got it all? Writing our answers down.

Speaker 3 (55:43):
And let me know when you're locked in yes, like
all right, and we need Isaiah's answer on the count
of three, one, two, three.

Speaker 2 (55:52):
Stuck in face stuck in.

Speaker 3 (55:54):
The phone, face in the phone. All right, we start
with Steve Covino.

Speaker 1 (55:58):
I mean, I think everybody's face is stuck in the
phone nowadays. So I'm saying getting up, because that's even
more rude now, like if you're getting up doing things
that to me, that's more rude. So I said, getting up.
This guy's a clown, Isaiah.

Speaker 2 (56:09):
I'm with you.

Speaker 1 (56:10):
When you're watching a show and you're trying to follow
a plotline, even if it's a reality show, and you
look over to me, you're putting your phone down. The
guy that had fourteen hours on his phone last week, Dude,
I put my phone down, and I'll turn to my wife.
But can you believe and if she's looking at her phone,
I feel disrespected phone. All right, that's just the way
of the world.

Speaker 8 (56:28):
You know.

Speaker 1 (56:28):
They're actually making shows that are dumb. You could watch
along with your phone. All right, We go to dan
byer facing phone.

Speaker 2 (56:36):
There you go, all right? Two point four, we go
to bursh uh.

Speaker 1 (56:40):
Yeah.

Speaker 7 (56:41):
So this was This was hard to answer with my
wife standing right in front of me. So I think
probably what would be the worst out of these three
is like when the villain and a show does something
and she turns to me and she's like, oh, this
is like the time when you did.

Speaker 1 (56:57):
This, right, huh yeah, isn't that terrible? So I said,
burfe on this, oh, sort of like what she watches Bridgartson,
and she's like, you are not.

Speaker 3 (57:05):
I was close to agreeing with Bursch because I don't
like those comparisons either, because it takes you out of
the fantasy of the show too. But I also said
facing phone because I do cove I do put my
phone away when we're trying to watch an episode of
you know, your Friends and neighbors and I look over
and she missed something because she's looking at you know,
online shopping.

Speaker 12 (57:25):
Many.

Speaker 1 (57:25):
What I'm saying is I sometimes look at my wife.
Cavino makes one of because I say, I look at
my wife.

Speaker 2 (57:29):
But for a reactionally, oh my god, babe.

Speaker 1 (57:31):
And if she's not feeling.

Speaker 3 (57:33):
What I'm feeling because she's scrolling, all right, Well, it
all comes down to Iowa, Samuel right now, I.

Speaker 2 (57:39):
Thought it did?

Speaker 4 (57:42):
I think though, when you're actually missing part of what
you're watching, that's the worst. So I said, keep leaving.

Speaker 3 (57:51):
So Isaiah doesn't get that round. But sorry, Idiah got
a few more here, a few more trust ioa. Sam's
girlfriend goes out to the shed in the backyard.

Speaker 2 (57:59):
Yes, bodies, are you all right? Round two?

Speaker 3 (58:03):
Let's go to the lifestyle category. This is fitting because
of what's happening on our show next week. Which is
the better vacation destination? Rome, Maui or Tokyo. These are
all listed as a top three favorite destinations, Rome, Maui
or Tokyo.

Speaker 2 (58:25):
Let me know when you're locked in? Locked in? All right, Isaiah? One?

Speaker 3 (58:31):
Two, three, go Maui, he says, Maui. We go in
reverse order. We start with Iowa, Sam.

Speaker 4 (58:38):
Been a Maui beautiful spot. But I said a Rome
food man, come on the story.

Speaker 3 (58:43):
But history man, nothing beats Maui. So he gets a
point from me there, all right, what say you Bush?

Speaker 1 (58:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (58:52):
I figured you would say Maui. I think that's a
strong answer. I was in Tokyo a couple of weeks
ago and I loved it.

Speaker 2 (59:01):
Yes it was your honeymoon, right, Yes, yeah it was. dB.
Give me Rome. That's all right, Jim.

Speaker 3 (59:10):
Room mathematically he's out right.

Speaker 2 (59:15):
But what'd you say, Rich?

Speaker 1 (59:18):
I mean Maui. I'm with you, Bro, that's where Rich
does his favorite sex move. You know, that's when when
the kids are sleeping. I call it the Maui plowy.
You don't have to beat that salmon.

Speaker 2 (59:29):
I'm letting it go. Would you say?

Speaker 1 (59:33):
Tokyo's great? I've been there. I'm actually going this week,
and then I'm going to Korea after that. Wow, Now
he's great. I've never been to Rome. It's got to
be Roman. It sounds like more historical and I don't
know it's You're not going to North Korea?

Speaker 2 (59:47):
Are you? No?

Speaker 1 (59:49):
Actually? Yeah, I'm getting a Kim Jong mun haircut.

Speaker 3 (59:51):
By the way, please support our show next week when
Dan Byer and Moncy Phil d it.

Speaker 2 (59:58):
All right, so we go to round three.

Speaker 3 (59:59):
Need to get on the board here, Isaiah, I'm gonna
go to the sports category. All right, listen to these
choices and I'll repeat them, but listen closely. What's worse
being the picture who gives up a clutch homer and
then the hitter bat flips, Being the defender in the
paint who gets dunked on and posterized, or being the
linebacker who gets trucked and pushed backwards into the end

(01:00:20):
zone by a running back, sorry.

Speaker 2 (01:00:22):
One more time.

Speaker 3 (01:00:23):
Yeah, So the picture who gives up a clutch homer
and the hitter bat flips on you being the defender
in the paint who gets dunked on and posterized, or
being a linebacker who gets trucked and pushed backwards into
the end zone by a running.

Speaker 2 (01:00:36):
Back, which is worse.

Speaker 4 (01:00:40):
Locked in All right, all writing our answers down, Locky
doodle Dan.

Speaker 2 (01:00:45):
Let me know when you're locked.

Speaker 7 (01:00:47):
I'm locked.

Speaker 2 (01:00:49):
Locked, Isaiah on the counter three one two three.

Speaker 5 (01:00:55):
Dunked on posed, He says.

Speaker 1 (01:00:56):
Post your eyes do we start with Steve Covino. It's
gotta be dunked posterise. That's a lasting image. You're posterized,
you're embarrassed. It's like you just got dunked on boom,
all right, Rich, you know now that you're saying it.
They make posters of dunks like I remember my friends
would have the John Starks dunking over Jordan poster. But

(01:01:18):
I feel like you could just be badfooting and it's
just not as embarrassing. I feel like, if you're a
pitcher on the mound and you give up a key
home run to me, that's like, oh, there's no more
empty feeling if you were pitched in any level, if
you give a home home run up, you feel like
a piece of garbage.

Speaker 6 (01:01:33):
All right, We go to dan Byer Lucky to save
had all three of these happened to me and my
my high school career, posterize point, and we go to Bersh.

Speaker 1 (01:01:46):
I said dunked on, No, that's what we need one more.

Speaker 2 (01:01:50):
I also said posterie Just for fun, Sam, what did
you say? I also said the defender in the paint
getting dunked on? All right?

Speaker 3 (01:02:00):
Half way halfway to see in our prize pack for
Isaiah in Boise. We go to round four the music category.
Which of these instruments is the most impressive to shred
on in front of a live audience? The drums, the saxophone,
or the piano?

Speaker 1 (01:02:17):
Easy?

Speaker 2 (01:02:17):
You think?

Speaker 10 (01:02:18):
So?

Speaker 3 (01:02:19):
There's a lot of arguing online about this music category.
Which of these instruments is the most impressive to shred
on in front of a live audience? The drums, the saxophone,
or the piano?

Speaker 4 (01:02:29):
Locked wall, there's there's an instrument missing where that term
shred actually.

Speaker 13 (01:02:36):
Right?

Speaker 2 (01:02:36):
That would be a runaway.

Speaker 3 (01:02:37):
Okay, thanks, so we're all writing our answers down alight,
all right, and Isaiah, we need your answer on the counter.

Speaker 2 (01:02:46):
Three one two three.

Speaker 3 (01:02:50):
Drums, He says, drums, all right, we go in reverse order.

Speaker 2 (01:02:54):
We start with Io Samuel.

Speaker 4 (01:02:56):
I think this is a personal favorite, I said the
saxophone Clinton, I love, I love, I love a good
sax solo.

Speaker 2 (01:03:09):
Man, it gets me going? Is that Baker Street?

Speaker 1 (01:03:13):
Can you isolate that? By the way, A good sax
solo gets me going?

Speaker 3 (01:03:18):
But the question was the most impressive. I feel like
there's a lot of impressive drummers, but when someone really
gets going crazy on the piano, we were just talking
about still dri I said, piano.

Speaker 2 (01:03:30):
All right, we go to bursh I.

Speaker 7 (01:03:32):
Think when you go to a show where there's a
drum solo baked into the show, where the rest of
the band leaves and there's I've never been to a
single show where that's happened, and it's not been impressive.

Speaker 2 (01:03:41):
So I said drums, I said drum.

Speaker 6 (01:03:43):
Point all right, TV, I've never been to a show
where I didn't leave when the drum solo started, so
I said sax.

Speaker 1 (01:03:50):
Saxophone sax, Well, I feel like you could fake a
drum solo.

Speaker 2 (01:03:54):
You could give me a.

Speaker 1 (01:03:55):
Pair of drumsticks that I could be like. And I
played a saxophone in high school. Not impressive, Billy Joel,
He's a piano man. Alicia Keys plays a piano. There's
nothing more oppressive than someone on a piano. Guys are
bavoons good jar it is number one piano. It's drums. Easy,
It's the easiest answer is drums. There's nothing more impressive. Dan,

(01:04:17):
I can't believe you get up in the middle of
the drum sol Sometimes they have dueling drum players.

Speaker 2 (01:04:21):
Sorry to a dueling drum bar. It's a doing piano bar.
You cloud, who do you are? A crocodile rock boy?

Speaker 3 (01:04:27):
Nobody hears on the same brainway. Yeah, Isaiah, I'm sorry.
There's only one category left. You need to to win,
so that ends your run. Here gives us a couple
of minutes to say goodbye to bersh.

Speaker 1 (01:04:38):
Doesn't thank you, guys, this was the last one.

Speaker 2 (01:04:43):
No, No, they're right. I'm so sorry. Yeah, you're right. TV.
All right, so here we go.

Speaker 12 (01:04:47):

Speaker 1 (01:06:28):
And like Danny G said, this is a farewell and
a goodbye to our good pal Bershee Boy, Ryan boy,
tremendous run here at Fox Sports Radio. He was walking
on in these hallways long before we got here. Yeah,
and Jay Stu, I know you, uh you wanted to
say your own farewell, jay Stu Boks talk on Jay

(01:06:50):
Stue to the show.

Speaker 13 (01:06:51):
First of all, thanks for having me on your show.
I love being on this program. I will be on
the program all next week with Dan Byron wants a bond.
All right, that's Jake Stu. But it's not about me.
I'm not going to make this about me. I'm going
to make it about Ryan Berschinger. I'm going to speak
for the network here for a second and say that
nobody is nicer and nobody laughs at your jokes harder
than Ryan Berschinger. Job so interpersonally, he's just a great

(01:07:14):
guy to have around and he's going to be missed
professionally speaking the very first person that I met when
I walked in the building at Fox Sports Radio five
years ago, with Ryan Berschinger. He was assigned with teaching
me the ropes, showing me the place. It realized it
kind of it dawned on me like six months later
that Ryan Berschinger could do my job and he was

(01:07:36):
told to train this new guy to do a job
that he was qualified to do. He was completely gracious
and unselfish. He could have resented me, he could have
sabotaged me, but he was so generous and that lived
out for the next five years. He's a professional, he's proactive.
He takes the initiative in this creative space that we

(01:07:57):
all exist in. You want somebody to bring you ideas,
you want somebody to ask you if they could help.
Ryan Berschinger does that. Anybody could just show up and
do what they're supposed to do. Ryan Berschinger went above
and beyond that, and he became the one word that
all of us try to become when we leave a shop.

(01:08:17):
And that's irreplaceable. If that's a word, Yeah, is that
it replaced?

Speaker 2 (01:08:21):
Thank you?

Speaker 1 (01:08:22):
Hey, you're ill, said Jay stew And, man, you're gonna
be missed Ryan, for sure, but I don't want to
take any time away from dB because you guys had
a long run too, right, I mean over ten years together.

Speaker 2 (01:08:34):
Working Yeah we did. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (01:08:36):
So I've loved working with Ryan throughout those years, even
when he started as an intern. So I know he's
off to bigger and better things, but he is someone
that I trusted wholeheartedly when we were ever doing shows
or working together, So he will be sorely missed. He's
made a lot of friends here we saw with everything
that I told him, I said, I'm going to miss
him more as a worker than an actual friend, because

(01:08:57):
that's how good of an employee he was.

Speaker 1 (01:09:01):
And now it's time with the Express pros.

Speaker 2 (01:09:03):
Pro the Week.

Speaker 1 (01:09:05):
It's gotta be Chandlin Brunson because for a minute you're like, Wow,
the Hawk's gonna pull this off, and then all of
a sudden, the Knicks start playing like a team that
looks like a real threat in the East. So Jaitlin
Brunson your Express pros Pro the Week. Now before we
get to weekend, hob Nobbin, the guy that's been here
for over a decade, long before Covino and Rich took
our talents to South Beach. Long before we came here,
Ryan Bursch was around the hallways here and a guy

(01:09:28):
that's gonna be sorely missed, so Bursh the mic is yours, farewell,
my friend, what's going on?

Speaker 7 (01:09:33):
Well, it's incredibly kind of you guys to give me
any of your airtime. That's so nice.

Speaker 2 (01:09:41):
It's not lost on me that.

Speaker 7 (01:09:42):
It's incredibly rare to get to do something that you
genuinely enjoy for a living, and it's even more rare
to be able to do that with people that you love.

Speaker 2 (01:09:54):
Doing it with.

Speaker 7 (01:09:56):
I am going to miss seeing all of you around
because the people here are great, great people. It is
a ton of fun to spend every single day with you,
and to not have you in my life every single day,
it's gonna be tough. I'm gonna miss you guys so much.
I thank you all so much for just being who
you are. It's so important because this is radio people.

(01:10:18):
You have to be who you are. You have to
be real.

Speaker 2 (01:10:20):
You know.

Speaker 7 (01:10:20):
Sometimes people listen to these shows and they think people
are just putting on a character. No, you can't. You
can't do three at four hours a day as someone else.
Everybody here is super genuine, super real and I love
you all, so thank you all so much for giving
me this opportunity. And this won't be the last you
see of me because I'm doing some other stuff in
this industry and I'm very excited about it. So I'll
