(01:24):
Davis is such a hyped up, jittery guy that some
old Texas woman called the police Unrich because he was
pacing around a parking lot on the phone. And she
was like, uh, nine one one is a crazy man
in the parking lot.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
I'm just reporting this crazy maniac.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Really, he's just got this East Coast energy about him,
and he just stands out like a sore thumb, just a.
Speaker 4 (01:47):
Wacko old lady that couldn't take my, you know, enthusiasm.
I guess I'm on the phone just you know, you
order food. I was standing in the parking lot making
a phone call. And yeah, this woman's like, I think
he's I think he stalk it out the place.

Speaker 3 (02:57):
Later today we're gonna talk Aaron.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Rodgers, YadA, hear Molina, maybe some firework action, but we
gotta talk Jason Tatum bro I.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Mean, largest contract in NBA history, following obviously a title
for the Lakers. I mean, I guess that's that's when
you get it right, when you when you win the
NBA title, you're the guy that's like, I want the money.
That's why when you try to sell your team, right,
you gotta sell your team.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Yeah, you gotta strike.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
While the Irons hot Wick Rossback is selling the team,
they say it's worth five point one billion dollars the
fourth highest in the NBA. He'll probably get a lot
more than that, because again, they just won. They signed
some superstars, but again, Jalen Brown, your NBA Finals MVP
last year, signed for a three hundred and four million
(03:48):
dollar extension. Jason Tatum got the Supermax deal, the largest
in NBA history, five year, three hundred and fourteen million
dollar deal. And you know, a lot of moves are
being made this week, and you goutys say, WHOA all right?
You know NBA looks different every year, but some big
names Klay Thompson obviously to the MAVs, Chris Paul to
(04:10):
the Spurs, Jason Tatum signing re signing again with the Celtics.
And it's insane the type of money these guys are getting.
But again, you just said it. They just won. You
got negotiating power. I look at that from a personal
standpoint of when our contract is up, when anyone's contract
(04:31):
is up, or when they're fighting for their job, what
could they do to really seal that deal and make
it sweet.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
It's what everyone thinks.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Personally. I'm saying it about two years rich, you better
start bringing the heat. You better come out with something
controversial where Fox has to sign CNR for a sweet
three year extension the Supermax deal. You gotta yeah, you
gotta get a radio Supermax deal. You gotta raise your profile.
I think there's something to be said about that. For
as corny as Jason Tatum may appear right on social
(05:03):
media with his quotes and the things he says, and
how contrived he appears to be with his statements after winning,
like he gets a lot of heat on social media.
The dude still wins and the dude still produces, so
none of that matters and he's coming up with winning season.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
Do you think Jason Tatum cares that people make fun
of him hugging the NBA title trophy? Do you think
do you think people care about people knowing he's corny?
Speaker 2 (05:30):
But he has eyes and ears, and he's a young
man with a phone in his hand, and he's on
social media, so he sees it. But at the beginning,
middle and end of the day, he gets the last
laugh with this super fat contract.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
So props to him.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
Yes, super Max. You know, I look at the numbers
and I really do feel like our grandparents would would
lose their mind that these numbers. Do you remember the
stuff that would like make your grandparents get mad. Yeah,
the world's going to hell in a handbasket. And they
would always complain about money or things in society. Like
(06:08):
Danny G. Before the show, you were saying that, uh
was it Dave Winfield? Danny G that you're that you
remember cigning that million dollar deal in your family got
all that.
Speaker 5 (06:17):
Yeah, when Dave Winfield made history with that big one
million dollar contract when we were little kids, I remember
my grandmother cursing.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
And think about this. Yeah, because our grandparents were all racist.
Probably I was part.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
Of part of it.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
That wasn't in it. She's like, they're playing a kid's game.
You're gonna make them millionaires.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Oh, but they grew up at a time when guys
like you know, Yogi Bearn whitey Ford worked at a
car wash in the offseason. So to them, you know,
baseball and basketball, it was a sport. They got paid handsomely.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
And by the way, that's but a lot of those
players you look them up. I mean they were fighting
in wharfs. Obviously, they were running dry cleaners and car washes,
and they had to have other jobs to survive.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
Because selling lots of insurance.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Yeah, they were selling cars. They were doing all sorts
of stuff just to get by. Now, Jason Tatum is
expected to make around seventy one million come twenty twenty
nine twenty thirty, which will make him the first ever
seventy million player in league history as of now, again
(07:23):
based on this five year Supermax deal he signed with
the with the Celtics.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
To me, but that post is a really good question.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
It does pose the question of first of all, before
we get into what would shock your old family members
the most about society in twenty twenty four, I want
to take you through the history of NBA contracts. Let's
do it real quick, like I mean, let's go back
to like before we were born, just to give some
perspective and to go back in time. Dude, I'll give you,
(07:56):
I'll give you a name. I'll give you a name,
and you tell me what you think the contracts.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Give me that nonsense, because I wouldn't even know where
to start.
Speaker 4 (08:04):
Well, that's out of the fun of it.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
This is not the fun of it.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
It's fun for you because you got the answers right
in front of you, trying to put us on the spot.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
I don't want t Beck, I wouldn't even know. No,
you're not.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
You're like Trump, No you're not.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
I don't know. You're tri bunk tri bunk.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
No, but you'll the'll u Yeah, he did look arrogant,
rest in peace because he had the answers. He had
the answers in front of him. But it's a fun activity.
It's you're not gonna look stupid. Of course.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
I am just go because I'm not gonna know where
to start with this.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
Nineteen sixty the highest paid player was Wilt Chamberlain the
nineteen fifty nine sixty season. What do you think Wilt
was making in fifteeney sixty? I honestly, I was a
little boy. I have no idea where to start.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
If Dave Winfield signed the first million dollar contract in
the eighties, Wilt Chamberlain in the sixties, I don't know,
that's not common knowledge. Let's say he was making three
hundred a year A.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
Well, you know what, I'm glad you said that because
there's no wrong answer, because this will just show you
the perspective as to why. It's like, what are they
making now? Wilt Chamberlain in nineteen fifty nine sixty made
thirty thousand dollars a.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Year, and I see that's ridiculous. Now I'm going down Chamberlain,
the biggest name in the game. Fifty nine sounds a
lot further back, I thought it was like a nineteen
sixty deal. Not that that makes a huge difference, but
it doesn't sound like fifty something.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
Don't worry, I'll get in the Dolorean. Let's move, let's
go nineteen sixties. In the sixties, Wilt was still the
highest paid player. He signed a five year deal to
take him throughout the sixties for sixty five thousand dollars
a year, and then the big deal was in nineteen
sixty six when Bill Russell signed the deal for one
(09:51):
hundred thousand dollars. Man.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Yeah, see that's ridiculous. No whether our parents or grandparents
are having heart attacks here and this stuff. And by
the way, back to Danny g story of Dave Winfield,
think of it from this perspective, shocking when he signed
the first one million dollar contract and he was a
dude that was drafted in like every major sport football, basketball,
(10:13):
and baseball, and it was still left with the feeling
of he was undecerving of that when he was like
an elite athlete with potential in every game.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
And to put it into perspective, you guys mentioned the
year nineteen sixty six, the average home in the United
States at that time was twenty two thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Oh so not Also looking back, you gotta figure some
of these guys maybe were even a little underpaid because
of the stigma of they're just playing sports as a
kid's game. That probably had something to do with it,
because they were still packing in the seats.
Speaker 4 (10:52):
Percentage wise, because they were making more than your grandpappy
working at the factory. You know. It was they're playing
a game and they're making all this money. But perspective wise,
it percentage wise, it was still peanuts for compared to
the percentages. Now, all right, let me just take you
through the history of this just to show you where
(11:12):
we ended up. Then the Lakers decided to pony up
Danny j your Lakers because they gave Will two hundred
and fifty thousand dollars in nineteen sixty nine. And then
then the money started adding up.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
My brother makes that doing appraisals. Nowadays. It's crazy how
how much it's changed. Yeah, Pete Maravich and by the
way I'm resaturating.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
But you gotta figure a superstar like that making two
hundred and fifty and it was a big deal.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
Yeah, but it was also fifty sixty years ago.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Yeah, how much Tariff made.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
He made three eighty in the early seventies for the Hawks.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Yeah, but rich, we're talking about superstars of the day.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
When you realize that that Jason Tatum is going to
be making seventy million a year, that's a huge leap.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Our grandparents would have never believed.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
That though, of course, because you know, we always think
back to, hey, what did your parents? What do you
think your parents made in the seventies and eighties, And
it was tens of thousands of dollars, No, like one
hundred thousand dollars. When we were kids, was like like goals, dreams.
And now in the twenty twenties, like you've seen the
minimum cost of living in certain big cities, it's ridiculous.
(12:29):
So I'll fast forward quick. You get to the mid
nineteen seventies, Kareem Abdul Jabbar signed another deal and he
was making six hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and that
was when it was like, he's the best player in
the world. But can you believe he's making six hundred
and fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Yeah, well, guess what, Grandpa Menzio, you're not seven foot
tall winning championships. There was a market, and you know,
now we're starting to sound like, okay, that's sound about right.
That sounds about right for the times. In my opinion,
Kareem Abdul Jabbar was a massive figure in sports at
(13:09):
that time.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
Keep in mind the NBA, the ABA, they weren't making
the money the NBA is making now. So there's also
you got to remind yourself the NBA's astronomically bigger and
more financially sound than it was fifty sixty years ago.
Until the eighties, the NBA wasn't it was you know,
it was small potatoes compared to like Major League Baseball.
(13:31):
All right, here's the turning point and we'll move on.
Nineteen seventy nine eighty that's when Moses Malone and Bill
Walton made a million dollars each. Then in eighty one
it was like doctor J. Moses, I guess anyone in
the basketball it was my favorite sport.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
Anyone. Curtis blow shouted.
Speaker 4 (13:49):
Out, Yeah, doctor J. Moses Malone, Kareem Bill Walton, that
made a million dollars. Then in eighty two eighty three
it started being two million dollars. The big jump Dandy
g from two three four million dollars was in ninety one.
Larry Bird made seven mil. Baller in ninety four. Magic
(14:12):
Johnson's like double that up fourteen mil the next year.
Youing in nineteen ninety five is like nah, nah eighteen
and then as he began.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
That makes sense too, because we give lots of credit
to the rivalry between Magic Chilenson and Larry Bird. We
give a lot of credit for them pushing the NBA
to where it is now. So you could see they
were pushing the contracts as well.
Speaker 5 (14:36):
Merchandise and the TV contract money started coming in at
that point.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
Well, I want you to keep in mind that this
may be the case with a guy like Otani, where
you see a guy make a certain amount of money
and then the market goes backwards because it's like, all right,
that's good and all, but that's because he's show hey Otani.
Because in the late nineties, when Jordan was in the
middle the second three peet, that number jumped up to
(15:03):
thirty three million dollars a year. But then after he
left the league, it went back to the twenties again
for a long time. So Michael Jordan for a couple
of years was paid what we think Michael Jordan should
be paid.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
And we bring this up again because Jason Tatum signing
a five year, three hundred and what is again, five
year supermax three hundred and four million dollars. No, Jalen
Browns had the three hundred and four million dollar extension.
It's the three fourteen deal. I'm seeing three thirteen point nine,
(15:39):
three point fifteen, and again he'll be the first seventy
million dollar man, seventy one million and twenty twenty nine
largest in NBA history. And based on that, we're going
through the evolution, and based on that, we're saying, in
today's world of sports and just life in general, what
(16:00):
what are grandparents be most shocked by?
Speaker 4 (16:05):
Ooh, that's a great question. And by the way, just
for the record, I might as well finish it out
twenty teens and twenty twenties. It was all Steph Curry.
He took it from twenty to thirty to forty to
fifty and now it's just out of care Field. Now
now it's Johnnison ad made sixty. They're gonna be making
sixty in the late twenty twenties, Jalen Brown sixty five
(16:25):
and twenty twenty eight. Because you can project what the
players are gonna make then unless someone out does that.
And of course now Jason Tatum. So it's insane. Your
grandparents be most shocked at it's insane.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
But we often say, because there's still gonna be people
in today's world to say, you kidding me, they're overpaid.
Clearly they're not. They wouldn't be making this money if
they weren't generating this type of money, if they weren't
this valuable. Plus Jalen Brown coming off the NBA Finals,
MVP season, Jason Tatum winning his championship, these guys have
(17:02):
that value.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
These guys have proven it now. Yeah, and we were
talking about Cove.
Speaker 5 (17:07):
We were talking about the value of the Boston Celtics
in our pre show meeting because they're gonna be on
the sale block and not sell block, sale block, and
they're worth about six billion dollars. You know they're probably
gonna sell for more than that.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
Yeah, this is when they got to make it happen.
So based on these crazy numbers, which sound crazy to
us because we're not chasing Tatum, we're not winning championships,
what would our grandparents be most shocked to hear in
today's world of sports, entertainment life? What comes to mind
(17:43):
for you think about your grandparents, our grandparents generation For
the most part, I feel like died when Willie May's died,
he represented that generation in my mind. We talked about
it on our show.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
And if you're roughly fortyish, there's a good chance your
grandparents aren't here anymore, so you know that generation is gone.
But what would they have been the most shocked by.
I have a bunch of examples of my head, and
we're gonna go over all of them, and we'll take
your feedback. Cavino and rich In for the great Dan Patrick,
as we say, Hey, congratulations, Jason Tatum, you're now the
richest man in the NBA. And your teammate Jalen Brown,
(18:23):
he's right there with you. Guys that are making fifty
sixty plus million dollars a year, which is a far
departure from your grandfather being mad that Dave Winfield made
a million dollars or could you believe Nolan ryang Is
paid that to throw a baseball like that. That was
the sentiment. But I have a couple other quickies and
we'll break and take your phone calls. How about just
(18:44):
the simple I mean, some of it's costs, some of
it's just social stuff. How about the simple cost of
if you go out to a nice restaurant Cavino, paying
twenty dollars for like a fancy cocktail and eighty dollars
for a steak.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
Is shocking. I mean, some of these prices today are
shocking to us. And we're living in right, Like, what
is going on here?
Speaker 4 (19:05):
You go to I'm a Vegas, You go to a
Vegas restaurant and you know, you get some old fashion
that's called the whiskey business, and it's like, oh, top
shelfist twenty three dollars. How much is the filet mignon? Oh,
seventy four dollars. That's that's fair, your grandparents.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
We're living in airport prices now. Yeah, everything's an airport price.
Forty os for a sandwich. That makes sense.

Next Hour but we got to wrap up a lot
of phone calls about Yadier Molina, who's again, he's a cardinal,
lifelong cardinal, nineteen years with the Cardinals.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
You picture him, you picture him in the Cardinals uniform.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
He's wearing all Cubs, but like all out Cubs gear
for his kids travel baseball team.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
And there's a nice way to look at that too.
I get it.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Look, man, he's Cardinals, but he's Cubs all the because
he loves his kids.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
And I also his kid or the Cardinals. That's one
point I would say, kid.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Well you would do anything for your kids. I get
that too, But it comes down to, well, would you
rock another team's gear, especially for your kids? And I'm
telling you, I don't have a son yet, but when
I do have little guesst on someday, as I said,
and I'm still in the game, now what I do,
(21:26):
I would have a problem with it.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
I would. I would think twice about it.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
And I thought about why rich I was in the
bathroom and I had an ep fanny and I was like,
I'll tell you why, because I feel like a fraud
in a phony, and some people are just better at
feeling that way.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
I don't like it.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
I would feel like a fraud and a phony wearing
the jersey of another team. It's like wearing a band
that I don't listen to his shirt. I feel like
a fraud. I don't play that game. I don't live
that life. I don't do that.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
You take yourself way too serious. I'm not an only guy.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Even Mike, who runs this place in the hallway, said
he could. Mike who runs this place over there. Mike
never heard of him, Big Mike the Bear, you know him,
Doctor Love. He said he would never do this either,
but he has two exceptions.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
Two exceptions.
Speaker 4 (22:14):
By the way, the fact that Mike agrees with you
makes me feel even better about disagreeing with you.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
No, because we're not phony baloney's.
Speaker 7 (22:21):
I love how you have more allegiance to the yank
to Aaron Judge over your own child. It's not that,
it's not it's what it sounds like.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Really, No, it's I this is where I'm from, this
is who my family rooted for, who I root for,
who sort of defined who I was for most of
my life.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
He goes that there's two exceptions.
Speaker 4 (22:44):
He said.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
That he would wear the gear, but only to the
game only to the game, right, he would never like
wear it anywhere else once he's out of them.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
The mit Field changing the car on the way to
the pizza party.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
He said, But he would never ever, ever wear ever
San Francisco Giants gear ever matter what.
Speaker 5 (23:06):
This is more about wearing a rival teams colors, because
it was like if it was like the Milwaukee Brewers
or something like that, Rich, I would do that for
my son, the San Francisco Giants. No, I'm not wearing
those orange puke colors.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
And it's not even about the hatreds about like you guys,
that's over one hundred years old. You say, get over yourself.
You just don't get it. You're just you don't get it.
You don't stand for anything. Let's go to the phone.
You can't say blanket dumb crap like that.
Speaker 4 (23:38):
And when you don't stand for something, don't any I
would wear you would.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
You would prove it every day with your foot flops.
You wear pajama pants to work.
Speaker 5 (23:48):
You should wear that phrase what if you uh, if
you don't stand for something, I invented it.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
I think if you guys have heard this one.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
If you don't stand for something, you fall for everything.
Speaker 4 (24:01):
He just says nonsense. I have wore flip flops in years.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
He like, that's funny. I get this guy, pull him
up right now.
Speaker 4 (24:06):
Every time this guy says something I got, ninety percent
of it is garbage.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
Because I tell you wear flip flops. I think pictures
that send them to all my other friends and make
fun of you. Let me, well, yes, what I got
cold patch? Scott speeze out with your soul patch over there.
I should take a picture of that and said that
everyone needs.
Speaker 4 (24:22):
To do that.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
Where's the soul patch? We'll find it.
Speaker 4 (24:24):
What's on your chin right now?
Speaker 2 (24:25):
The same way you're just same facial hair that's always
on my face. What's on your what's under your beard?
That's what I want to know. Fortunately, rocking for five
to let's go to the phones, A seven seven ninety
nine out Fox. We got too many people on hold
here getting ready to disagree with Rich. I guarantee it.
Because you're talking to sports fans, I guarantee it. I
(24:46):
give the George Forman guarantee.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
Maybe people need a root awakening that if you have
a problem wearing I don't know, a San Francisco Giants
Little League shirt, then maybe you're the problem.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
I'm not saying I wouldn't do it, but I would
have a problem with a fit. Let's start with Texas.
That's where Rich is right now, Jerome and Texas. You're
on the Cavino and Rich show.
Speaker 8 (25:08):
Hey, how's you going.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Uh?
Speaker 8 (25:10):
My son's little league team is called the Bananas, so
I don't know what their rival team would be. But
I think as long as you show up to your
kids games, it doesn't matter what you wear, they'll remember
that you're there. So if you don't want to wear
the rival teams, just don't just show up to your
kids games.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
Yeah, but I'm saying if you're coaching your kid, right,
sweet answer. Yeah, But if you're coaching your kid.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
Rich would be the pop Banana because he's the best.
Speaker 4 (25:38):
Well, you know what I would, I would rock a
whole yellow Outphibet and Davis.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
I mean, Richard Busch actually does have a banana suit.
I'm sure he does. You were wondering, Uh, we got
James in Virginia.
Speaker 4 (25:50):
No, no, no, hold on, we won't have time.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
Okay, Hey, James, Patrick, John, everybody, hang tight.
Speaker 4 (25:55):
Hold on. I agree with Rich.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Thanks James, Thank you be short catch the live edition
of The Dan Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern
six am Pacific on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio
wap Wow.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Getting late early lots of feedback to appreciate that love
the feedback.
Speaker 4 (26:14):
Goodness, the feedback is pretty awesome. Hey in for DP,
Cavino and rich We're gonna play Mike Tyson Trivia, Iron
My Trivia, a little bit.
Speaker 3 (26:23):
I saw in the kitchen. Man, he's looking angry today.
Speaker 4 (26:27):
Can I hate you? And Danny up with a quick, quick,
random question? Yeah, sure, so unless you want to keep
fighting about wearing other teams jerseys.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
No, not at all.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
By the way, we're Cavino and rich In for Dan
Patrick the Dan Slam eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.
We got some giveaways in a minute, Iron Mike Trivia,
and if we do have time, we'll talk some Aaron
Rodgers or fireworks, whatever you want.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
To talk about. Otherwise, we still got tomorrow and the
next day.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
Yeah, we got it all, but that that's the fun
of the Dan Slam. Day is a fun. We talked
about Tatum and Jalen Brown. By the way, the starting
five for the Celtics, would you believe are just shy
of a billion dollars worth of contracts, billions and billions,
(27:16):
billions and billions and billions and billions and billions and
billions and billions. But you ever see that experiment on
social media where they show like a grain of rice
is a million and how much a billion is? Like
we don't we sometimes we confuse like, oh yeah, million
or billion, so drastically different, So drastically different. But the
(27:38):
Celtics starting five close to a billion dollars in salaries. Now,
let me turn to the NFL just for a second.
The highest paid QB, running back, wide receiver, and tight end.
Do you think the highest paid in each of those
positions is also arguably the best at that position or not?
(28:02):
Do you want to take a guess at who they are? Quarterback? Okay,
who do you think it is?
Speaker 7 (28:10):
Is it.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
Mahomes? Yeah, he just reworked that deal not too long ago.
Speaker 4 (28:18):
It's Joe Burrow?
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Oh yeah, Okay?
Speaker 4 (28:20):
Would you agree that he is against elite?
Speaker 2 (28:23):
A lot of times you're being paid for potential, right,
so qbs next in line?
Speaker 3 (28:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (28:30):
But so Burrow is the highest paid quarterback in the
National Football League, with the annual yield of sixty two
point nine million. Now running back. Who would you say
is the best running back in the National Football League? McCaffrey, Yeah, yeah,
And he is the highest paid seventeen million wide receiver and.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
He's having a great week. Congratulations, got married now to Olivia.
Culture wide receiver Justin Jefferson.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
Yeah, thirty five mil. And you could argue that aj Brown,
Wattle Cup Digs. There's a lot of good receivers, you know,
but I think I think Jefferson, you could argue who's
the best so so far. I think Borrow, McCaffrey, and
Jefferson the right guys are getting paid, is my point, right,
And then tight ends Kelsey just restructured his deal seventeen
(29:20):
million years. So I think the NFL, you know, they
got it right at least where I think other sports.
I know they just want an NBA title. But do
you think Jason Tatum's the best player in the NBA.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
I'd have to say no to that. But again, but
they he just didn't just be a one and there's
nothing to say about it.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
I think.
Speaker 2 (29:44):
I think there's a bit of a stigma around him
because people think he's not that guy. But the record
proves otherwise.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Well, now as we as we get into iron Mike Trivia.
I did see a meme though, Danny about your your
boy Lebron James saying what's wrong with Lebron? I think
it was like a fake tweet, like it must be
me because everyone, you know, whether it's Clay or Kyrie
or any of these guys that Lebron wanted to come
play with him. Do you think it's intentional that they're
(30:11):
not ending up there or do you think just it's
not working out?
Speaker 3 (30:14):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (30:15):
It's been a big question in the Lakers group chat
the past couple of days, like what's Polinka waiting on?
Speaker 4 (30:22):
Or is it that deep down inside some of these
guys might be like yo Bronni, you're yo Lebron, You're
my boy, and then behind closed doors they're like, yeah,
I don't. I don't really want to go there.
Speaker 3 (30:30):
I don't want to play with him and his kid.
Speaker 5 (30:32):
There might be some of that that's still waiting on,
possibly Jeremy Grant and DeRozan, So there's still a couple
of guys out there. But yeah, the list of players
is dwindling down because.
Speaker 4 (30:43):
That's every business, not to get all you know, business
on you. But a lot of times you'll say something
in a meeting and then when the meeting ends, you
pull someone aside like, well, here's what I really think.
And I wonder if a lot of Lebron's boys off
the court, because Lebron is very popular in the NBA
among the players fans may hate on, but in the
league he's very well received. I just think maybe some
of these other stars like, yo, you're my boy, yo,
(31:06):
but I don't want to play.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
With him, well because maybe it's you're my boy, and
I don't want to play for you because you're my boy, right,
and you're not believing in the leadership going on there
or what the potential future looks like. So we got
to play this game. You don't want to make Iron
Mic Wait, dude, I don't know. Yeah, it's easy for
you to do that in Texas. He's out here snarling
(31:28):
in the doorway.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
So let's do it.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
Iron Mike Trivia, Mike Tyson was a maniac.
Speaker 3 (31:35):
I want your heart.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
I want to eat a children, but an ear to this.
If you're a boxing brainiac. Iron Mike Trivia definitely.
Speaker 5 (31:46):
All right, FSR Security walking are broke, Mic into the
main studio.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
There, you make a very three bag for to make
me wait here in the studio, very very different guy
babbling about about contract the guy and I'm fit out
here early in the morning just to be on the show.
Speaker 5 (32:02):
Yeah, man, I mean every Monday or Tuesday usually come
in in the afternoon. So we appreciate you waking up
Iron Mike. I'm very very agitated right now. Sorry, I
just need my coffee. I hope it doesn't make your
ulcer worse anyway.
Speaker 3 (32:17):
Hey, what's up?
Speaker 2 (32:18):
Joe? Hey guys, Hey guys, Hey, I want to say
different date theme fate. I'm gonna knock out Jake Paul
November fifteenth, So I hope you guys are still tuning in.
Speaker 5 (32:28):
All right, We're gonna meet the contestants right now for
Iron Mike Trivia. Twenty five time winner Rich Davis live
in Texas in for eighteen time winner Dan byer Is
Kevin Wirret today, keV.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
What's up? Hey, Kevin? Kevin looks like a wonderful man,
n very nice guy.
Speaker 5 (32:47):
Nine time winner Spotty Boy over there make it ten
today and looking to win a seeing our stainless steel
Swiggy one of our nice water bottles?
Speaker 3 (32:55):
Is Travis in La? What's up?
Speaker 4 (32:57):
Trav? Hey us?
Speaker 3 (33:00):
What do you do for a living in Los Angeles?
Speaker 1 (33:03):
What do I do for a living?
Speaker 3 (33:06):
I don't want to say he's the criminal.
Speaker 5 (33:09):
No, I think probably the other extreme might be law enforcement.
All right, here are the reports he didn't say he's
calling from Chatsworth. All right, here's the rules for Iron
Mike trivia. The first contestant with two correct answers is
the champ. If there's a tie, we have a tie
breaker question. Your name is your buzzer, but you do
have to wait until all three possible answers are read.
(33:31):
If there's two wrong answers in a row, we move
on to the next question. Are you ready?
Speaker 4 (33:36):
Deal?
Speaker 3 (33:36):
Let's get it home?
Speaker 4 (33:37):
All right? Round one?
Speaker 2 (33:38):
I once famously said this about my character. Hey, I'm
not mother truth, but I'm not child manthon either. B
If Hell had the boxing ring, I hope the devil
is ready for my right hook or see. I have
lots of layers to me like an expensive mattress. What
did I want famously say about my character? Iron Mike.
Speaker 3 (34:04):
Rich oh Rich got in there first.
Speaker 4 (34:07):
Maybe the one Mike about the devil on the boxing.
Speaker 7 (34:10):
Green spot, spot for the steel something about mother Teresa
and Charles Mannon.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
That's correct.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
Yeah, yeah, nice one famously said I'm not Mother treat though,
but I'm not Charles Manson either.
Speaker 3 (34:26):
You're not Mike. All right, so spotty on the board.
As we moved to round two. Round two.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
What does the letter C stand for in the Boxing
Organization WBC? Is it a committee, B, cabinet or the council.
Speaker 4 (34:47):
Rich Rich committee? No?
Speaker 3 (34:53):
Wrong? Oh?
Speaker 5 (34:54):
Wired for the steel, no one for counsel. Yes, there
it is Kevin wired on the board. Hey, Travis in La,
is your buzzer working? I didn't know?
Speaker 3 (35:04):
Okay, all right, you can take a guess. Well now
with a wonderful guest from Kevin By.
Speaker 5 (35:10):
You got a spot and Kevin both on the board.
As we moved around three, you got a chance. I'm
getting it right.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
Which actor did the great Julio see the Travis have
to portray him in an upcoming bio film with it
a Diego, Luna b Mark Wahlberg or the Michael Payana.
Speaker 5 (35:32):
Oh, Travis, y if you're just guessed, by the way,
no penalty if you get it wrong.
Speaker 3 (35:38):
By the way, Travis, I feel like they're giving you,
like plenty of times.
Speaker 4 (35:42):
Travis, we're giving you like a standing eight count.
Speaker 3 (35:47):
I feel like they're really trying to get you involved.
Speaker 4 (35:50):
Travis. It would be nice.
Speaker 3 (35:52):
You either have to say a.
Speaker 4 (35:54):
B or C.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
I know it's really difficult. Take a guess, Travis.
Speaker 8 (36:00):
I forgot that it was boxing trivia. Woe better with
the general.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
Yeah, but it's only three letters. You could guess either one.
Is this a Luna guy Diego Luna?
Speaker 2 (36:11):
No?
Speaker 3 (36:11):
Sorry, all right? Anybody for the steal? Spot for the steal?
And the wind? Is it Michael Pena? Yeah? That would
make the really interesting. Well, I mean I guess, yeah,
I guess that makes sense.
Speaker 5 (36:27):
Who Mark Wahlberg, which makes no sense at all. He
didn't even just ask, he begged them.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
Nothing like him. That's what I was thinking.
Speaker 7 (36:36):
I'm like, who, I was gonna go with Diego Luda
because a young Diego that's like.
Speaker 3 (36:42):
To portray me in a movie. It makes no sense.
Speaker 4 (36:45):
And that's like what Brett. That's like when Brett Pitt
played a doctor Fauci on Saturday Night Live.
Speaker 5 (36:51):
Well Chaves told Wahlburg, don't worry, the movie is going
to be in English, and Wahlberg said, I'll do it
if you'll produce the movie. So people are speculating that
it's gonna happen. All right, we move on to round four.
Speaker 2 (37:02):
Osay, which of these boxing classes is the heaviest? If
you guys know, I was the youngest heavyweight champion of
the world. Which boxing class is the heaviest A light heavyweight, B,
welterweight or the flyweight?
Speaker 3 (37:20):
Kevin, Kevin a A is correcting.
Speaker 4 (37:24):
You are.
Speaker 2 (37:29):
From night heavyweight one seventy five welter weight to one
forty seven flyweight. Is what I'm at right now, like
two fifteen. I'm feeling pretty fly looks like one twelve. Guys,
I've just being thilly. Sorry, guys, learn something. Learn something
with Covino and Rich and Travis in La. Sorry that
this Boxing Tribune wasn't right up your alley, but uh
(37:49):
was it a nice effort? Can I say that nice effort?
Speaker 4 (37:52):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (37:53):
I mean I like Travis, I mean thank you calling.
Speaker 8 (37:55):
I guess for my punishment, I have to work on
Bernie Frattles show with Kevin and Melvin night that.
Speaker 4 (38:02):
You know what I think you do? Have to do that.
Speaker 3 (38:04):
I like Bernie's practice, so he knows us well all right,
well guys, I gotta go now. By guys, bye, I
got I got like a busy day. You made me
wait on there.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
We'll see you next week. Oh boy, wow, Mike was
in a hurry. I just saw Mic out there. He
looked a little l agitated.
Speaker 4 (38:27):
Let me tell you what.
Speaker 3 (38:27):
Congratulations I saw that you won. Man, that that's pretty cool.
Speaker 4 (38:31):
Danny g When we play some of these fun trivia
games here and there, the the idea that it's multiple choice.
When the contestant realizes that we're giving him like one
second to jump in and they don't. I don't know why.
It bothers me. It bathers me, you know why, because
it's like it really is like Spot said a one
(38:52):
in three chance. Mike Tyson said, one of these three things.
If I was the contestant, I'd be like Travis, like immediately.
Speaker 3 (39:01):
The games.
Speaker 4 (39:03):
It's like it's like a covido when you were when
you were in school and you had a scantron if
you didn't know the answer, like yeah, see see I see.
Speaker 3 (39:11):
The shoulder of the kid in front of me. That's
what I tried to do.
Speaker 4 (39:13):
You know, there was a kid I used to cheat
off of in high school and he got wind of it.
So you know what this little punk ass did tell us.
You know now that looking back, he was probably right
because I was the one cheating, but he would do
all the work. And right before we handed in the assignment,
that's when he like feverishly was like c p A
A like like because he wouldn't want me to see
his scantron's sheets. And that kid's name is Joe Romano.
(39:36):
And I hope he's not doing great.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
Oh wow, I called him out on national radio. So anyway,
we're Cavino and Rich in for Dan Patrick. I do

the last time. Actually it was years ago. It's a
funny story just to tell you about the type of
guy Rich is. And I say this, uh respectfully. Rich
(01:24):
Davis is such a hyped up, jittery guy that some
old Texas woman called the police Unrich because he was
pacing around a parking lot on the phone. And she
was like, uh, nine one one is a crazy man
in the parking lot.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
I'm just reporting this crazy maniac.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
Really, he's just got this East Coast energy about him,
and he just stands out like a sore thumb, just a.
Speaker 4 (01:47):
Wacko old lady that couldn't take my, you know, enthusiasm.
I guess I'm on the phone just you know, you
order food. I was standing in the parking lot making
a phone call. And yeah, this woman's like, I think
he's I think he stalk it out the place.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
I think he's on the drugs or something. But hey,
Rich is a really hyper dude. We live out here
in LA. We're from the East Coast. Always happy to
be in for the Dan Patrick Show eight seven, seven
ninety nine on Fox. If you want to get involved

Mike Trivia. Iron Mike stops by and we do multiple
choice trivia.
Speaker 3 (02:31):
We give away swiggies, which are like.
Speaker 2 (02:33):

Speaker 3 (02:38):

Speaker 2 (02:45):
They're shiny, nice blue metallic CNR on FSR water bottle.
You could win one by leaving a review when you
follow our podcast or play Iron Mike Trivia.
Speaker 3 (02:57):
Later today we're gonna talk Aaron.
Speaker 2 (02:58):
Rodgers, YadA, hear Molina, maybe some firework action, but we
gotta talk Jason Tatum bro I.
Speaker 4 (03:08):
Mean, largest contract in NBA history, following obviously a title
for the Lakers. I mean, I guess that's that's when
you get it right, when you when you win the
NBA title, you're the guy that's like, I want the money.
That's why when you try to sell your team, right,
you gotta sell your team.
Speaker 3 (03:25):
Yeah, you gotta strike.
Speaker 2 (03:26):
While the Irons hot Wick Rossback is selling the team,
they say it's worth five point one billion dollars the
fourth highest in the NBA. He'll probably get a lot
more than that, because again, they just won. They signed
some superstars, but again, Jalen Brown, your NBA Finals MVP
last year, signed for a three hundred and four million
(03:48):
dollar extension. Jason Tatum got the Supermax deal, the largest
in NBA history, five year, three hundred and fourteen million
dollar deal. And you know, a lot of moves are
being made this week, and you goutys say, WHOA all right?
You know NBA looks different every year, but some big
names Klay Thompson obviously to the MAVs, Chris Paul to
(04:10):
the Spurs, Jason Tatum signing re signing again with the Celtics.
And it's insane the type of money these guys are getting.
But again, you just said it. They just won. You
got negotiating power. I look at that from a personal
standpoint of when our contract is up, when anyone's contract
(04:31):
is up, or when they're fighting for their job, what
could they do to really seal that deal and make
it sweet.
Speaker 4 (04:39):
It's what everyone thinks.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Personally. I'm saying it about two years rich, you better
start bringing the heat. You better come out with something
controversial where Fox has to sign CNR for a sweet
three year extension the Supermax deal. You gotta yeah, you
gotta get a radio Supermax deal. You gotta raise your profile.
I think there's something to be said about that. For
as corny as Jason Tatum may appear right on social
(05:03):
media with his quotes and the things he says, and
how contrived he appears to be with his statements after winning,
like he gets a lot of heat on social media.
The dude still wins and the dude still produces, so
none of that matters and he's coming up with winning season.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
Do you think Jason Tatum cares that people make fun
of him hugging the NBA title trophy? Do you think
do you think people care about people knowing he's corny?
Speaker 2 (05:30):
But he has eyes and ears, and he's a young
man with a phone in his hand, and he's on
social media, so he sees it. But at the beginning,
middle and end of the day, he gets the last
laugh with this super fat contract.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
So props to him.
Speaker 4 (05:44):
Yes, super Max. You know, I look at the numbers
and I really do feel like our grandparents would would
lose their mind that these numbers. Do you remember the
stuff that would like make your grandparents get mad. Yeah,
the world's going to hell in a handbasket. And they
would always complain about money or things in society. Like
(06:08):
Danny G. Before the show, you were saying that, uh
was it Dave Winfield? Danny G that you're that you
remember cigning that million dollar deal in your family got
all that.
Speaker 5 (06:17):
Yeah, when Dave Winfield made history with that big one
million dollar contract when we were little kids, I remember
my grandmother cursing.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
And think about this. Yeah, because our grandparents were all racist.
Probably I was part.
Speaker 4 (06:28):
Of part of it.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
That wasn't in it. She's like, they're playing a kid's game.
You're gonna make them millionaires.
Speaker 4 (06:34):
Oh, but they grew up at a time when guys
like you know, Yogi Bearn whitey Ford worked at a
car wash in the offseason. So to them, you know,
baseball and basketball, it was a sport. They got paid handsomely.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
And by the way, that's but a lot of those
players you look them up. I mean they were fighting
in wharfs. Obviously, they were running dry cleaners and car washes,
and they had to have other jobs to survive.
Speaker 3 (06:58):
Because selling lots of insurance.
Speaker 2 (07:00):
Yeah, they were selling cars. They were doing all sorts
of stuff just to get by. Now, Jason Tatum is
expected to make around seventy one million come twenty twenty
nine twenty thirty, which will make him the first ever
seventy million player in league history as of now, again
(07:23):
based on this five year Supermax deal he signed with
the with the Celtics.
Speaker 3 (07:29):
To me, but that post is a really good question.
Speaker 4 (07:32):
It does pose the question of first of all, before
we get into what would shock your old family members
the most about society in twenty twenty four, I want
to take you through the history of NBA contracts. Let's
do it real quick, like I mean, let's go back
to like before we were born, just to give some
perspective and to go back in time. Dude, I'll give you,
(07:56):
I'll give you a name. I'll give you a name,
and you tell me what you think the contracts.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
Give me that nonsense, because I wouldn't even know where
to start.
Speaker 4 (08:04):
Well, that's out of the fun of it.
Speaker 3 (08:05):
This is not the fun of it.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
It's fun for you because you got the answers right
in front of you, trying to put us on the spot.
Speaker 4 (08:11):
I don't want t Beck, I wouldn't even know. No,
you're not.
Speaker 3 (08:14):
You're like Trump, No you're not.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
I don't know. You're tri bunk tri bunk.
Speaker 3 (08:18):
Thank you.
Speaker 4 (08:19):
No, but you'll the'll u Yeah, he did look arrogant,
rest in peace because he had the answers. He had
the answers in front of him. But it's a fun activity.
It's you're not gonna look stupid. Of course.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
I am just go because I'm not gonna know where
to start with this.
Speaker 4 (08:32):
Nineteen sixty the highest paid player was Wilt Chamberlain the
nineteen fifty nine sixty season. What do you think Wilt
was making in fifteeney sixty? I honestly, I was a
little boy. I have no idea where to start.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
If Dave Winfield signed the first million dollar contract in
the eighties, Wilt Chamberlain in the sixties, I don't know,
that's not common knowledge. Let's say he was making three
hundred a year A.
Speaker 4 (09:01):
Well, you know what, I'm glad you said that because
there's no wrong answer, because this will just show you
the perspective as to why. It's like, what are they
making now? Wilt Chamberlain in nineteen fifty nine sixty made
thirty thousand dollars a.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
Year, and I see that's ridiculous. Now I'm going down Chamberlain,
the biggest name in the game. Fifty nine sounds a
lot further back, I thought it was like a nineteen
sixty deal. Not that that makes a huge difference, but
it doesn't sound like fifty something.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
Don't worry, I'll get in the Dolorean. Let's move, let's
go nineteen sixties. In the sixties, Wilt was still the
highest paid player. He signed a five year deal to
take him throughout the sixties for sixty five thousand dollars
a year, and then the big deal was in nineteen
sixty six when Bill Russell signed the deal for one
(09:51):
hundred thousand dollars. Man.
Speaker 2 (09:53):
Yeah, see that's ridiculous. No whether our parents or grandparents
are having heart attacks here and this stuff. And by
the way, back to Danny g story of Dave Winfield,
think of it from this perspective, shocking when he signed
the first one million dollar contract and he was a
dude that was drafted in like every major sport football, basketball,
(10:13):
and baseball, and it was still left with the feeling
of he was undecerving of that when he was like
an elite athlete with potential in every game.
Speaker 5 (10:25):
And to put it into perspective, you guys mentioned the
year nineteen sixty six, the average home in the United
States at that time was twenty two thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (10:36):
Oh so not Also looking back, you gotta figure some
of these guys maybe were even a little underpaid because
of the stigma of they're just playing sports as a
kid's game. That probably had something to do with it,
because they were still packing in the seats.
Speaker 4 (10:52):
Percentage wise, because they were making more than your grandpappy
working at the factory. You know. It was they're playing
a game and they're making all this money. But perspective wise,
it percentage wise, it was still peanuts for compared to
the percentages. Now, all right, let me just take you
through the history of this just to show you where
(11:12):
we ended up. Then the Lakers decided to pony up
Danny j your Lakers because they gave Will two hundred
and fifty thousand dollars in nineteen sixty nine. And then
then the money started adding up.
Speaker 3 (11:27):
My brother makes that doing appraisals. Nowadays. It's crazy how
how much it's changed. Yeah, Pete Maravich and by the
way I'm resaturating.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
But you gotta figure a superstar like that making two
hundred and fifty and it was a big deal.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
Yeah, but it was also fifty sixty years ago.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
Yeah, how much Tariff made.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
He made three eighty in the early seventies for the Hawks.
Speaker 3 (11:54):
Yeah, but rich, we're talking about superstars of the day.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
When you realize that that Jason Tatum is going to
be making seventy million a year, that's a huge leap.
Speaker 3 (12:05):
Our grandparents would have never believed.
Speaker 4 (12:07):
That though, of course, because you know, we always think
back to, hey, what did your parents? What do you
think your parents made in the seventies and eighties, And
it was tens of thousands of dollars, No, like one
hundred thousand dollars. When we were kids, was like like goals, dreams.
And now in the twenty twenties, like you've seen the
minimum cost of living in certain big cities, it's ridiculous.
(12:29):
So I'll fast forward quick. You get to the mid
nineteen seventies, Kareem Abdul Jabbar signed another deal and he
was making six hundred and fifty thousand dollars, and that
was when it was like, he's the best player in
the world. But can you believe he's making six hundred
and fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (12:49):
Yeah, well, guess what, Grandpa Menzio, you're not seven foot
tall winning championships. There was a market, and you know,
now we're starting to sound like, okay, that's sound about right.
That sounds about right for the times. In my opinion,
Kareem Abdul Jabbar was a massive figure in sports at
(13:09):
that time.
Speaker 4 (13:10):
Keep in mind the NBA, the ABA, they weren't making
the money the NBA is making now. So there's also
you got to remind yourself the NBA's astronomically bigger and
more financially sound than it was fifty sixty years ago.
Until the eighties, the NBA wasn't it was you know,
it was small potatoes compared to like Major League Baseball.
(13:31):
All right, here's the turning point and we'll move on.
Nineteen seventy nine eighty that's when Moses Malone and Bill
Walton made a million dollars each. Then in eighty one
it was like doctor J. Moses, I guess anyone in
the basketball it was my favorite sport.
Speaker 3 (13:47):
Anyone. Curtis blow shouted.
Speaker 4 (13:49):
Out, Yeah, doctor J. Moses Malone, Kareem Bill Walton, that
made a million dollars. Then in eighty two eighty three
it started being two million dollars. The big jump Dandy
g from two three four million dollars was in ninety one.
Larry Bird made seven mil. Baller in ninety four. Magic
(14:12):
Johnson's like double that up fourteen mil the next year.
Youing in nineteen ninety five is like nah, nah eighteen
and then as he began.
Speaker 2 (14:22):
That makes sense too, because we give lots of credit
to the rivalry between Magic Chilenson and Larry Bird. We
give a lot of credit for them pushing the NBA
to where it is now. So you could see they
were pushing the contracts as well.
Speaker 5 (14:36):
Merchandise and the TV contract money started coming in at
that point.
Speaker 4 (14:41):
Well, I want you to keep in mind that this
may be the case with a guy like Otani, where
you see a guy make a certain amount of money
and then the market goes backwards because it's like, all right,
that's good and all, but that's because he's show hey Otani.
Because in the late nineties, when Jordan was in the
middle the second three peet, that number jumped up to
(15:03):
thirty three million dollars a year. But then after he
left the league, it went back to the twenties again
for a long time. So Michael Jordan for a couple
of years was paid what we think Michael Jordan should
be paid.
Speaker 2 (15:17):
And we bring this up again because Jason Tatum signing
a five year, three hundred and what is again, five
year supermax three hundred and four million dollars. No, Jalen
Browns had the three hundred and four million dollar extension.
It's the three fourteen deal. I'm seeing three thirteen point nine,
(15:39):
three point fifteen, and again he'll be the first seventy
million dollar man, seventy one million and twenty twenty nine
largest in NBA history. And based on that, we're going
through the evolution, and based on that, we're saying, in
today's world of sports and just life in general, what
(16:00):
what are grandparents be most shocked by?
Speaker 4 (16:05):
Ooh, that's a great question. And by the way, just
for the record, I might as well finish it out
twenty teens and twenty twenties. It was all Steph Curry.
He took it from twenty to thirty to forty to
fifty and now it's just out of care Field. Now
now it's Johnnison ad made sixty. They're gonna be making
sixty in the late twenty twenties, Jalen Brown sixty five
(16:25):
and twenty twenty eight. Because you can project what the
players are gonna make then unless someone out does that.
And of course now Jason Tatum. So it's insane. Your
grandparents be most shocked at it's insane.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
But we often say, because there's still gonna be people
in today's world to say, you kidding me, they're overpaid.
Clearly they're not. They wouldn't be making this money if
they weren't generating this type of money, if they weren't
this valuable. Plus Jalen Brown coming off the NBA Finals,
MVP season, Jason Tatum winning his championship, these guys have
(17:02):
that value.
Speaker 3 (17:03):
These guys have proven it now. Yeah, and we were
talking about Cove.
Speaker 5 (17:07):
We were talking about the value of the Boston Celtics
in our pre show meeting because they're gonna be on
the sale block and not sell block, sale block, and
they're worth about six billion dollars. You know they're probably
gonna sell for more than that.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
Yeah, this is when they got to make it happen.
So based on these crazy numbers, which sound crazy to
us because we're not chasing Tatum, we're not winning championships,
what would our grandparents be most shocked to hear in
today's world of sports, entertainment life? What comes to mind
(17:43):
for you think about your grandparents, our grandparents generation For
the most part, I feel like died when Willie May's died,
he represented that generation in my mind. We talked about
it on our show.
Speaker 4 (18:00):
And if you're roughly fortyish, there's a good chance your
grandparents aren't here anymore, so you know that generation is gone.
But what would they have been the most shocked by.
I have a bunch of examples of my head, and
we're gonna go over all of them, and we'll take
your feedback. Cavino and rich In for the great Dan Patrick,
as we say, Hey, congratulations, Jason Tatum, you're now the
richest man in the NBA. And your teammate Jalen Brown,
(18:23):
he's right there with you. Guys that are making fifty
sixty plus million dollars a year, which is a far
departure from your grandfather being mad that Dave Winfield made
a million dollars or could you believe Nolan ryang Is
paid that to throw a baseball like that. That was
the sentiment. But I have a couple other quickies and
we'll break and take your phone calls. How about just
(18:44):
the simple I mean, some of it's costs, some of
it's just social stuff. How about the simple cost of
if you go out to a nice restaurant Cavino, paying
twenty dollars for like a fancy cocktail and eighty dollars
for a steak.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
Is shocking. I mean, some of these prices today are
shocking to us. And we're living in right, Like, what
is going on here?
Speaker 4 (19:05):
You go to I'm a Vegas, You go to a
Vegas restaurant and you know, you get some old fashion
that's called the whiskey business, and it's like, oh, top
shelfist twenty three dollars. How much is the filet mignon? Oh,
seventy four dollars. That's that's fair, your grandparents.
Speaker 2 (19:21):
We're living in airport prices now. Yeah, everything's an airport price.
Forty os for a sandwich. That makes sense.

Next Hour but we got to wrap up a lot
of phone calls about Yadier Molina, who's again, he's a cardinal,
lifelong cardinal, nineteen years with the Cardinals.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
You picture him, you picture him in the Cardinals uniform.
Speaker 2 (20:48):
He's wearing all Cubs, but like all out Cubs gear
for his kids travel baseball team.
Speaker 3 (20:54):
And there's a nice way to look at that too.
I get it.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Look, man, he's Cardinals, but he's Cubs all the because
he loves his kids.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
And I also his kid or the Cardinals. That's one
point I would say, kid.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Well you would do anything for your kids. I get
that too, But it comes down to, well, would you
rock another team's gear, especially for your kids? And I'm
telling you, I don't have a son yet, but when
I do have little guesst on someday, as I said,
and I'm still in the game, now what I do,
(21:26):
I would have a problem with it.
Speaker 3 (21:27):
I would. I would think twice about it.
Speaker 2 (21:29):
And I thought about why rich I was in the
bathroom and I had an ep fanny and I was like,
I'll tell you why, because I feel like a fraud
in a phony, and some people are just better at
feeling that way.
Speaker 3 (21:40):
I don't like it.
Speaker 2 (21:41):
I would feel like a fraud and a phony wearing
the jersey of another team. It's like wearing a band
that I don't listen to his shirt. I feel like
a fraud. I don't play that game. I don't live
that life. I don't do that.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
You take yourself way too serious. I'm not an only guy.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
Even Mike, who runs this place in the hallway, said
he could. Mike who runs this place over there. Mike
never heard of him, Big Mike the Bear, you know him,
Doctor Love. He said he would never do this either,
but he has two exceptions.
Speaker 3 (22:13):
Two exceptions.
Speaker 4 (22:14):
By the way, the fact that Mike agrees with you
makes me feel even better about disagreeing with you.
Speaker 3 (22:18):
No, because we're not phony baloney's.
Speaker 7 (22:21):
I love how you have more allegiance to the yank
to Aaron Judge over your own child. It's not that,
it's not it's what it sounds like.
Speaker 2 (22:30):
Really, No, it's I this is where I'm from, this
is who my family rooted for, who I root for,
who sort of defined who I was for most of
my life.
Speaker 3 (22:40):
He goes that there's two exceptions.
Speaker 4 (22:44):
He said.
Speaker 2 (22:46):
That he would wear the gear, but only to the
game only to the game, right, he would never like
wear it anywhere else once he's out of them.
Speaker 3 (22:56):
The mit Field changing the car on the way to
the pizza party.
Speaker 2 (22:58):
He said, But he would never ever, ever wear ever
San Francisco Giants gear ever matter what.
Speaker 5 (23:06):
This is more about wearing a rival teams colors, because
it was like if it was like the Milwaukee Brewers
or something like that, Rich, I would do that for
my son, the San Francisco Giants. No, I'm not wearing
those orange puke colors.
Speaker 2 (23:18):
And it's not even about the hatreds about like you guys,
that's over one hundred years old. You say, get over yourself.
You just don't get it. You're just you don't get it.
You don't stand for anything. Let's go to the phone.
You can't say blanket dumb crap like that.
Speaker 4 (23:38):
And when you don't stand for something, don't any I
would wear you would.
Speaker 2 (23:44):
You would prove it every day with your foot flops.
You wear pajama pants to work.
Speaker 5 (23:48):
You should wear that phrase what if you uh, if
you don't stand for something, I invented it.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
I think if you guys have heard this one.
Speaker 3 (23:57):
If you don't stand for something, you fall for everything.
Speaker 4 (24:01):
He just says nonsense. I have wore flip flops in years.
Speaker 3 (24:03):
He like, that's funny. I get this guy, pull him
up right now.
Speaker 4 (24:06):
Every time this guy says something I got, ninety percent
of it is garbage.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
Because I tell you wear flip flops. I think pictures
that send them to all my other friends and make
fun of you. Let me, well, yes, what I got
cold patch? Scott speeze out with your soul patch over there.
I should take a picture of that and said that
everyone needs.
Speaker 4 (24:22):
To do that.
Speaker 3 (24:22):
Where's the soul patch? We'll find it.
Speaker 4 (24:24):
What's on your chin right now?
Speaker 2 (24:25):
The same way you're just same facial hair that's always
on my face. What's on your what's under your beard?
That's what I want to know. Fortunately, rocking for five
to let's go to the phones, A seven seven ninety
nine out Fox. We got too many people on hold
here getting ready to disagree with Rich. I guarantee it.
Because you're talking to sports fans, I guarantee it. I
(24:46):
give the George Forman guarantee.
Speaker 4 (24:48):
Maybe people need a root awakening that if you have
a problem wearing I don't know, a San Francisco Giants
Little League shirt, then maybe you're the problem.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
I'm not saying I wouldn't do it, but I would
have a problem with a fit. Let's start with Texas.
That's where Rich is right now, Jerome and Texas. You're
on the Cavino and Rich show.
Speaker 8 (25:08):
Hey, how's you going.
Speaker 3 (25:09):
Uh?
Speaker 8 (25:10):
My son's little league team is called the Bananas, so
I don't know what their rival team would be. But
I think as long as you show up to your
kids games, it doesn't matter what you wear, they'll remember
that you're there. So if you don't want to wear
the rival teams, just don't just show up to your
kids games.
Speaker 4 (25:29):
Yeah, but I'm saying if you're coaching your kid, right,
sweet answer. Yeah, But if you're coaching your kid.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
Rich would be the pop Banana because he's the best.
Speaker 4 (25:38):
Well, you know what I would, I would rock a
whole yellow Outphibet and Davis.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
I mean, Richard Busch actually does have a banana suit.
I'm sure he does. You were wondering, Uh, we got
James in Virginia.
Speaker 4 (25:50):
No, no, no, hold on, we won't have time.
Speaker 3 (25:52):
Okay, Hey, James, Patrick, John, everybody, hang tight.
Speaker 4 (25:55):
Hold on. I agree with Rich.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Thanks James, Thank you be short catch the live edition

Speaker 4 (26:14):
Goodness, the feedback is pretty awesome. Hey in for DP,
Cavino and rich We're gonna play Mike Tyson Trivia, Iron
My Trivia, a little bit.
Speaker 3 (26:23):
I saw in the kitchen. Man, he's looking angry today.
Speaker 4 (26:27):
Can I hate you? And Danny up with a quick, quick,
random question? Yeah, sure, so unless you want to keep
fighting about wearing other teams jerseys.
Speaker 3 (26:37):
No, not at all.
Speaker 2 (26:38):
By the way, we're Cavino and rich In for Dan
Patrick the Dan Slam eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.
We got some giveaways in a minute, Iron Mike Trivia,
and if we do have time, we'll talk some Aaron
Rodgers or fireworks, whatever you want.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
To talk about. Otherwise, we still got tomorrow and the
next day.
Speaker 4 (26:55):
Yeah, we got it all, but that that's the fun
of the Dan Slam. Day is a fun. We talked
about Tatum and Jalen Brown. By the way, the starting
five for the Celtics, would you believe are just shy
of a billion dollars worth of contracts, billions and billions,
(27:16):
billions and billions and billions and billions and billions and
billions and billions. But you ever see that experiment on
social media where they show like a grain of rice
is a million and how much a billion is? Like
we don't we sometimes we confuse like, oh yeah, million
or billion, so drastically different, So drastically different. But the
(27:38):
Celtics starting five close to a billion dollars in salaries. Now,
let me turn to the NFL just for a second.
The highest paid QB, running back, wide receiver, and tight end.
Do you think the highest paid in each of those
positions is also arguably the best at that position or not?
(28:02):
Do you want to take a guess at who they are? Quarterback? Okay,
who do you think it is?
Speaker 7 (28:10):
Is it.
Speaker 3 (28:13):
Mahomes? Yeah, he just reworked that deal not too long ago.
Speaker 4 (28:18):
It's Joe Burrow?
Speaker 3 (28:19):
Oh yeah, Okay?
Speaker 4 (28:20):
Would you agree that he is against elite?
Speaker 2 (28:23):
A lot of times you're being paid for potential, right,
so qbs next in line?
Speaker 3 (28:28):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (28:30):
But so Burrow is the highest paid quarterback in the
National Football League, with the annual yield of sixty two
point nine million. Now running back. Who would you say
is the best running back in the National Football League? McCaffrey, Yeah, yeah,
And he is the highest paid seventeen million wide receiver and.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
He's having a great week. Congratulations, got married now to Olivia.
Culture wide receiver Justin Jefferson.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
Yeah, thirty five mil. And you could argue that aj Brown,
Wattle Cup Digs. There's a lot of good receivers, you know,
but I think I think Jefferson, you could argue who's
the best so so far. I think Borrow, McCaffrey, and
Jefferson the right guys are getting paid, is my point, right,
And then tight ends Kelsey just restructured his deal seventeen
(29:20):
million years. So I think the NFL, you know, they
got it right at least where I think other sports.
I know they just want an NBA title. But do
you think Jason Tatum's the best player in the NBA.
Speaker 2 (29:35):
I'd have to say no to that. But again, but
they he just didn't just be a one and there's
nothing to say about it.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
I think.
Speaker 2 (29:44):
I think there's a bit of a stigma around him
because people think he's not that guy. But the record
proves otherwise.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Well, now as we as we get into iron Mike Trivia.
I did see a meme though, Danny about your your
boy Lebron James saying what's wrong with Lebron? I think
it was like a fake tweet, like it must be
me because everyone, you know, whether it's Clay or Kyrie
or any of these guys that Lebron wanted to come
play with him. Do you think it's intentional that they're
(30:11):
not ending up there or do you think just it's
not working out?
Speaker 3 (30:14):
Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (30:15):
It's been a big question in the Lakers group chat
the past couple of days, like what's Polinka waiting on?
Speaker 4 (30:22):
Or is it that deep down inside some of these
guys might be like yo Bronni, you're yo Lebron, You're
my boy, and then behind closed doors they're like, yeah,
I don't. I don't really want to go there.
Speaker 3 (30:30):
I don't want to play with him and his kid.
Speaker 5 (30:32):
There might be some of that that's still waiting on,
possibly Jeremy Grant and DeRozan, So there's still a couple
of guys out there. But yeah, the list of players
is dwindling down because.
Speaker 4 (30:43):
That's every business, not to get all you know, business
on you. But a lot of times you'll say something
in a meeting and then when the meeting ends, you
pull someone aside like, well, here's what I really think.
And I wonder if a lot of Lebron's boys off
the court, because Lebron is very popular in the NBA
among the players fans may hate on, but in the
league he's very well received. I just think maybe some
of these other stars like, yo, you're my boy, yo,
(31:06):
but I don't want to play.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
With him, well because maybe it's you're my boy, and
I don't want to play for you because you're my boy, right,
and you're not believing in the leadership going on there
or what the potential future looks like. So we got
to play this game. You don't want to make Iron
Mic Wait, dude, I don't know. Yeah, it's easy for
you to do that in Texas. He's out here snarling
(31:28):
in the doorway.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
So let's do it.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
Iron Mike Trivia, Mike Tyson was a maniac.
Speaker 3 (31:35):
I want your heart.
Speaker 1 (31:36):
I want to eat a children, but an ear to this.
If you're a boxing brainiac. Iron Mike Trivia definitely.
Speaker 5 (31:46):
All right, FSR Security walking are broke, Mic into the
main studio.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
There, you make a very three bag for to make
me wait here in the studio, very very different guy
babbling about about contract the guy and I'm fit out
here early in the morning just to be on the show.
Speaker 5 (32:02):
Yeah, man, I mean every Monday or Tuesday usually come
in in the afternoon. So we appreciate you waking up
Iron Mike. I'm very very agitated right now. Sorry, I
just need my coffee. I hope it doesn't make your
ulcer worse anyway.
Speaker 3 (32:17):
Hey, what's up?
Speaker 2 (32:18):
Joe? Hey guys, Hey guys, Hey, I want to say
different date theme fate. I'm gonna knock out Jake Paul

Speaker 5 (32:28):
All right, We're gonna meet the contestants right now for
Iron Mike Trivia. Twenty five time winner Rich Davis live

Kevin Wirret today, keV.
Speaker 3 (32:42):

n very nice guy.
Speaker 5 (32:47):

Speaker 3 (32:55):
Is Travis in La? What's up?
Speaker 4 (32:57):
Trav? Hey us?
Speaker 3 (33:00):
What do you do for a living in Los Angeles?
Speaker 1 (33:03):
What do I do for a living?
Speaker 3 (33:06):
I don't want to say he's the criminal.
Speaker 5 (33:09):
No, I think probably the other extreme might be law enforcement.
All right, here are the reports he didn't say he's
calling from Chatsworth. All right, here's the rules for Iron
Mike trivia. The first contestant with two correct answers is
the champ. If there's a tie, we have a tie
breaker question. Your name is your buzzer, but you do
have to wait until all three possible answers are read.
(33:31):
If there's two wrong answers in a row, we move
on to the next question. Are you ready?
Speaker 4 (33:36):
Deal?
Speaker 3 (33:36):
Let's get it home?
Speaker 4 (33:37):
All right? Round one?
Speaker 2 (33:38):
I once famously said this about my character. Hey, I'm
not mother truth, but I'm not child manthon either. B
If Hell had the boxing ring, I hope the devil
is ready for my right hook or see. I have
lots of layers to me like an expensive mattress. What
did I want famously say about my character? Iron Mike.
Speaker 3 (34:04):
Rich oh Rich got in there first.
Speaker 4 (34:07):
Maybe the one Mike about the devil on the boxing.
Speaker 7 (34:10):
Green spot, spot for the steel something about mother Teresa
and Charles Mannon.
Speaker 3 (34:19):
That's correct.
Speaker 2 (34:20):
Yeah, yeah, nice one famously said I'm not Mother treat though,
but I'm not Charles Manson either.
Speaker 3 (34:26):
You're not Mike. All right, so spotty on the board.
As we moved to round two. Round two.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
What does the letter C stand for in the Boxing
Organization WBC? Is it a committee, B, cabinet or the council.
Speaker 4 (34:47):
Rich Rich committee? No?
Speaker 3 (34:53):
Wrong? Oh?
Speaker 5 (34:54):
Wired for the steel, no one for counsel. Yes, there
it is Kevin wired on the board. Hey, Travis in La,
is your buzzer working? I didn't know?
Speaker 3 (35:04):
Okay, all right, you can take a guess. Well now
with a wonderful guest from Kevin By.
Speaker 5 (35:10):
You got a spot and Kevin both on the board.
As we moved around three, you got a chance. I'm
getting it right.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
Which actor did the great Julio see the Travis have
to portray him in an upcoming bio film with it
a Diego, Luna b Mark Wahlberg or the Michael Payana.
Speaker 5 (35:32):
Oh, Travis, y if you're just guessed, by the way,
no penalty if you get it wrong.
Speaker 3 (35:38):
By the way, Travis, I feel like they're giving you,
like plenty of times.
Speaker 4 (35:42):
Travis, we're giving you like a standing eight count.
Speaker 3 (35:47):
I feel like they're really trying to get you involved.
Speaker 4 (35:50):
Travis. It would be nice.
Speaker 3 (35:52):
You either have to say a.
Speaker 4 (35:54):
B or C.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
I know it's really difficult. Take a guess, Travis.
Speaker 8 (36:00):
I forgot that it was boxing trivia. Woe better with
the general.
Speaker 3 (36:03):
Yeah, but it's only three letters. You could guess either one.
Is this a Luna guy Diego Luna?
Speaker 2 (36:11):
No?
Speaker 3 (36:11):
Sorry, all right? Anybody for the steal? Spot for the steal?
And the wind? Is it Michael Pena? Yeah? That would
make the really interesting. Well, I mean I guess, yeah,
I guess that makes sense.
Speaker 5 (36:27):
Who Mark Wahlberg, which makes no sense at all. He
didn't even just ask, he begged them.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
Nothing like him. That's what I was thinking.
Speaker 7 (36:36):
I'm like, who, I was gonna go with Diego Luda
because a young Diego that's like.
Speaker 3 (36:42):
To portray me in a movie. It makes no sense.
Speaker 4 (36:45):
And that's like what Brett. That's like when Brett Pitt
played a doctor Fauci on Saturday Night Live.
Speaker 5 (36:51):
Well Chaves told Wahlburg, don't worry, the movie is going
to be in English, and Wahlberg said, I'll do it
if you'll produce the movie. So people are speculating that
it's gonna happen. All right, we move on to round four.
Speaker 2 (37:02):
Osay, which of these boxing classes is the heaviest? If
you guys know, I was the youngest heavyweight champion of
the world. Which boxing class is the heaviest A light heavyweight, B,
welterweight or the flyweight?
Speaker 3 (37:20):
Kevin, Kevin a A is correcting.
Speaker 4 (37:24):
You are.
Speaker 2 (37:29):
From night heavyweight one seventy five welter weight to one
forty seven flyweight. Is what I'm at right now, like
two fifteen. I'm feeling pretty fly looks like one twelve. Guys,
I've just being thilly. Sorry, guys, learn something. Learn something
with Covino and Rich and Travis in La. Sorry that
this Boxing Tribune wasn't right up your alley, but uh
(37:49):
was it a nice effort? Can I say that nice effort?
Speaker 4 (37:52):
Okay?
Speaker 3 (37:53):
I mean I like Travis, I mean thank you calling.
Speaker 8 (37:55):
I guess for my punishment, I have to work on
Bernie Frattles show with Kevin and Melvin night that.
Speaker 4 (38:02):
You know what I think you do? Have to do that.
Speaker 3 (38:04):
I like Bernie's practice, so he knows us well all right,
well guys, I gotta go now. By guys, bye, I
got I got like a busy day. You made me
wait on there.
Speaker 2 (38:17):
We'll see you next week. Oh boy, wow, Mike was
in a hurry. I just saw Mic out there. He
looked a little l agitated.
Speaker 4 (38:27):
Let me tell you what.
Speaker 3 (38:27):
Congratulations I saw that you won. Man, that that's pretty cool.
Speaker 4 (38:31):
Danny g When we play some of these fun trivia
games here and there, the the idea that it's multiple choice.
When the contestant realizes that we're giving him like one
second to jump in and they don't. I don't know why.
It bothers me. It bathers me, you know why, because
it's like it really is like Spot said a one
(38:52):
in three chance. Mike Tyson said, one of these three things.
If I was the contestant, I'd be like Travis, like immediately.
Speaker 3 (39:01):
The games.
Speaker 4 (39:03):
It's like it's like a covido when you were when
you were in school and you had a scantron if
you didn't know the answer, like yeah, see see I see.
Speaker 3 (39:11):
The shoulder of the kid in front of me. That's
what I tried to do.
Speaker 4 (39:13):
You know, there was a kid I used to cheat
off of in high school and he got wind of it.
So you know what this little punk ass did tell us.
You know now that looking back, he was probably right
because I was the one cheating, but he would do
all the work. And right before we handed in the assignment,
that's when he like feverishly was like c p A
A like like because he wouldn't want me to see
his scantron's sheets. And that kid's name is Joe Romano.
(39:36):
And I hope he's not doing great.
Speaker 2 (39:37):
Oh wow, I called him out on national radio. So anyway,
we're Cavino and Rich in for Dan Patrick. I do
want to thank Iron Mike for stopping by every Tuesday
he comes by. We give away prizes and Kevin wins
