Possibly plus every Thursday we reminisce, we throw it back,

seven to ninety nine on Fox, I throwback conversation. I
want to tell you why Aaron Rodgers is like boys
(01:48):
to men. Ah, hold up, bro hold up, because Danny
g said, Hey man, I don't tell you guys what
to talk about.
Speaker 2 (01:55):
But no, Aaron Rodgers, look at all these great topics
we have today. There's no need for you to spend
a half hour on Aaron Rodgers when there's absolutely no
news about where he's actually going to be playing or
sitting his butt on the beach retiring.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Oh, I'm sorry I missed that text now, Daddy. I
just I did have a deep thought about Aaron Rodgers
and how he's very much like your favorite R and
B supergroup from the nineties, Boys to Men. Boy Bands
ruined him. You're on the right track, because you know
boy bands ruined a great thing, which was Boys to Men.
(02:31):
Don't you ruin my better than Colin Cowhard an Algi?
Okay ahead, all right? Zip it ures? How is Aaron
Rodgers like Boys to Men? If you watch the documentary
on Netflix back in the day, I believe it's called
This is Pop, and you realize that Boys to Men
was dominate in the world Motown, Philly. It's the end
(02:52):
of the road, like they were on top of the world.
Who was bigger than Boys to Men? I remember having
my first couple skate with the girl in seventh grade
at the roller skating rink, trying to get a little
smooch while Boys to Men was playing in the background,
kidding me, you're talking to one of their biggest fans.
Coolly high harmony.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Man.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
I loved it.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
And then when she.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Broke up with you, you put on bended knee on
a mixtape.
Speaker 1 (03:13):
Correct sipping ain't easy get over here, junior high makeouts.
So we all have fondness for boys to men. I'd
like to think right, big time love in fact, the
fun fact I got to sing a boys to Men
on our show. I loved boys to men, so I
(03:36):
was like dum dada. So how I can think of
a few ways in which Aaron Rodgers is like them?
But I don't want to ruin your surprise. So Aaron
Rodgers is like boys to men. And I'll explain boys
to Men. In that docu series This is Pop, they
talked about how boys to Men went from playing arenas
(03:58):
and sometimes stadiums, number one hit records, Grammy Awards, Grammys,
and then all of a sudden came the boy band
explosion in sync Backstreet ninety eight degrees, Oh Town boy band.
I was like no Town. They sort of replaced boys
(04:20):
to men on young girl's bedroom walls. Well, everybody started
associating boys to men as a boy band sort of act,
and they lost a lot of credibility as that sort
of faded.
Speaker 4 (04:31):
And that was for pop fans rich, not R and
B fans.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Yeah, they sort of lost their R and B vibe
and people threw them into that mix. So overnight, it
seemed they talk about this on the documentary. Overnight they
went from selling out arenas to yo, should we play
at the mall?
Speaker 4 (04:50):
They were playing casinos, And it.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Was a quick fall from grace where one minute you
winning Grammys and everyone knows your song songs, then you're
trying to decide should I be playing at the you know,
at the Tapanga mall for a couple hundred people. I
think they opened up for the Zach attack. Yeah, And
(05:13):
who is the Sparkles girl on Robin Sparkles? They be
able enough for Robin Sparkles at one point. And how
is this like Aaron Rodgers. I'll tell you how, because
you could go from the hottest commodity in the game too. Yeah.
I really don't care that much anymore, real quick in sports,
music and Entertainment, Grand in grand clothes and Aaron Rodgers
(05:35):
this morning when he talked to McAfee, even talked about
how I'm not looking for forty fifty million dollars year.
In fact, he'll play for a lot less.
Speaker 5 (05:44):
I had a lot of great conversations with a lot
of teams, but I've been straight up with these teams
from the start about where I was at, you know,
starting with the money thing. I told every single one
of the teams I talked to, you know, laying about
the money.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
I'll play for ten ms. You know, I don't care.
Speaker 5 (05:59):
I never once said I need a multi year deal
thirty forty million dollars.
Speaker 6 (06:02):
And so I played for ten.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
So Aaron Rodgers at least is accepting the boys to
men fall from. I'm the elite. I'm the elite fifty
to sixty million dollar guy. He gets it. It's nice
to hear that he has a realistic expectation of what
he deserves at this point in his career. That's nice.
(06:25):
And when you think about that, I have so many
other thoughts. All right, well I have two other ways
in which he's like boys to men. Okay, but first
let me tell everyone we are doing it live from

first round. And it's all with our good friends at
ship Station. Yeah, Thursday at eight ship Station. Thank you
(07:27):
very much. So tell me other ways how Aaron Rodgers
is like boys DevD and of course we want to
know your thoughts too about Aaron Rodgers. There's a few
updates on Aaron Rodgers Big Story today eight seven, seven
ninety nine on Fox.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
Don't you Derek extend this segment.
Speaker 1 (07:40):
He's come to the end of the road, damn. And
it's so hard to say goodbye. I say, you did there,
and I think he should look I am the first guy.
One of the rules here on the Coveno and Rich
Show is you know they'll tell other people how to
spend their money, and don't tell other people how to
live their life and how they should live their legacy.
(08:04):
So if Aaron Rodgers wants to play, and he's willing
to play for ten million a year as a back,
is he willing to play backup? I don't think he's
willing to do that. Okay, you know, I think maybe
he should look into that too. But I'm saying I'm
the first guy to say, it's none of our business.
It is his legacy. To enhance or tarnish. Is his life.
I believe An Jovi said that too. He did it's
his life now never. But I really feel at this
(08:27):
point and at this stage, and for where he's at
and what he's been through with the injury and bouncing around, now,
I think it's time to call it quits. Unless he's
willing to play backup. I think it's time to retire,
and he should be proud of that. And I'm never
that guy. In fact, I don't think I've really ever
leaned into that as much. I've talked about it because
it's been an option, it's been talked about, But I
(08:49):
really think it's time, man, And I feel like at
this stage, it's like you're overstepping your overstepping, You're welcome.
He's overstepping and overstaying at the same time because he's
got other teams waiting around and see what he's gonna do.
It's almost disrespectful at this point. There's a Steeler line
he's saying right as of now, that bro, there's no
(09:09):
timeline and he has no retirement decisions in mind. The
Steelers have Kyle Rudolph in their quarterback room sort of
just like you said, is what I say, Kyle Rolf
I love that guy. I've mentioned him, like, yeah, the
Kyle Rudolph Vikings tight end reference You've done a couple
of times lately. For some reason, I must have a thing.
Maybe I'll meet him and would be on the best buds.
Speaker 4 (09:31):
Now.
Speaker 2 (09:31):
To be fair to Aaron Rodgers, he did say that
he's not holding the Steelers hostage, that he's telling them
they can move on if they need to.
Speaker 1 (09:38):
I mean, that is true, but that's like a girl
telling you, like, well, if you want, you could see
other people, and you're like, well, I know what that means,
because then if I do, it's over right. I get
it though. On the flip side. You can say, well,
that's on the Steelers. You can sleep with whoever you want. Okay,
come on, But as the tody said back in the nineties,
make up be all mind, make up your mind, dude.
(10:00):
Aaron Rodgers like boys to men. The fall from grace
was there. They acknowledge he's not playing stadiums anymore. He's
playing malls and it happens real quick. I love that
he acknowledges it. But interestingly enough, if he's willing to
play for ten million dollars, isn't it shocking that no
one else has bit Because I thought the hang up
(10:21):
was I don't know who wants to pay him thirty
forty to fifty mil for a year or two. If
he's selling teams, I'm okay with one year ten mil
if it's the right fit. You don't think teams like
the forty nine ers scratch your noggin a little bit,
like yeah, now that that's public information, public knowledge. It
also makes the fans put pressure on the teams to
(10:42):
be like, yo, well then we should get them. If
that's the case. If that sounds good to you for
ten million dollars, it's not a bad deal and you
know what, when the story's written, like we all sort
of lived it, so we all have our opinions. But
looking back, looking back, let's say fast forward thirty years
from now, we're not going to say he fell off
a cliff or that he hit a wall. We're going
(11:04):
to say that he suffered a bad injury and that's
why his career wasn't the same. Yeah, right, like we
often sort of forget, like how serious that was. Dude
missed the whole season. Yeah, as a result, It's not
like he was thinking now he got hurt. It might
come back to my thought months ago. And again I'm
(11:24):
never the I told you so guy. In fact, people
that do that I want to karate kick judo chomp.
But I did say a couple months ago, when we
were speculating, oh what team would it be Minnesota or
the Steelers or the Giants, or when we were speculating
the few teams, I said, you know what makes the
most sense to me? And maybe I was right, you know,
like a broken clock is right twice a day. I said,
(11:45):
what if Aaron Rodgers starts the season without a job
and then he's the savior that comes in because we're
likely to see at least one or two starting qbs
go down mid season on a decent enough team, and
then who's the hero that comes in for five to
ten million dollars halfway through the season. Aaron Rodgers and
again the update today Fox Sports Radio Nation. He says
there's no deadline with the Steelers and they in fact
(12:09):
can do whatever they want. As Danny said, there's no
deadline with the Steelers or any other team, and no
retirement decisions as of now. Aaron Rodgers. Some people sick
of hearing about it and hearing about him all out,
Danny G. But it's kind of hard to avoid. And
you have any other ways in which he's like Boys
to manical.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
Yes, it's like the water runs dry, Danny.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
I have one more analogy that's way less cool than
Boys to Men. I know it's a movie. Cavino probably
thinks it's like super corny and way too corny for
a guy like Steve Covino. Is it a movie you like? Yes,
then yeah, you're probably right right. Has anyone here seen
the legendary rom com My Best Friend's Wedding? Oh my god,
(12:54):
Come on, dude, is that where Julie Roberts stands up
and has a sing along. The moment I wake up
Dad is sprinkled with oh my makeup. Yeah, listen, there's
cheesy scenes. I'm not saying it's one of my favorites.
I saw that part and I left. It's a juicy
lucy it's oozing cheese. Yeah, yeah, I mean never seen
it movies. Danny g you've never seen my best friend's wedding? Yeah,
(13:19):
you ain't missing anything, dude. There's a sports background. Remember
the dad, Cameron Diez's dad is what the owner of
the White.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
Sox did not recall that fact.
Speaker 1 (13:28):
There's like multiple scenes that take place that I believe
the old.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
I can't say I remember that movie very well.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
It fell It was a pot Any Julia Roberts movie
at that time was huge, right, So how does that
tie into Rogers because he's like Julia Roberts in this
movie because at the end of it, she's chasing after
a guy who's chasing after a girl, and everyone someone's
chasing someone, and then her gay best friend that I
think it's played by Rupert Everett is like Jules, no
(13:54):
one's chasing you. Rewind a couple of years. How many
teams would have been chasing Aaron Rodgers. If I told
you right now, Mahomes, Joe Burrow, any of the top
tier quarterbacks, Josh Allen, if they were like, hey, guys,
I'm available, thirty teams would be like I want in.
No one is biting on Aaron Rodgers so much like
(14:16):
and you know what he's gonna say, much like Julia
Roberts in a totally different movie. Yeah mistake, big mistake,
so big mistake. And I would root for that. I
want to make this clear too. Steve Cavino just a fan,
just like everybody else. I'm not saying he's retired because
I don't like the guy. But I'm also not rooting
against him. Like if he comes out and lights it up,
(14:40):
believe you me, I love that story. I really do.
I love seeing a great comeback story or a second
third chance story. If he comes back. We were all wrong, man, man,
that would be so dope. I would love to tell you, man,
look at Rogers. He still had some in the tank.
Because we all want to feel that we we still
(15:00):
have something in the tank. I'm not a I'd be
rooting for Rogers in that case. I'm a big fan
of When you say the phrase believe you me. It's
a good one. I feel it puts more emphasis and
I feel I feel convinced, like, yeah, he said believe
you It just adds a little more conviction.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
That's all.
Speaker 1 (15:15):
So, Hey, I want harp on Aaron Rodgers. Yeah, but
it's a big story, hey, to make. I don't want
to upset Danny j and I get it. We're all
we have Aaron Rodgers exhaustion. But there is one more
clear fatigue. You don't need to play the whole beat,
the whole clip, but I would say just the beginning
of how he talks about retirement and how he's a
forty one year old man. Life is different now, you know.
Speaker 6 (15:34):
I'm in a different phase of my life. I'm forty
one years old.
Speaker 5 (15:37):
I'm in a serious relationship off the field, stuff going
on that requires my attention. You know, to make a
commitment to the team is a big thing, whether you're
a first year player or a twenty year vet. I've
been straight up with these teams from the start about
where I was at, you know, starting with the money thing.
You know, I told every single one of the teams
I talked to laying about the money I'll play for
(15:58):
ten ms, but you know.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
It makes things a lot more clear. So again, Aaron
Rodgers fatigue is real. But I think that changes, It
changes the conversation because you would imagine that a guy
like that comes in with an expectation, a built in
starting point of about forty million dollars. He's willing to
take ten million dollars. What do you have to lose
at that point? Rich?
Speaker 2 (16:17):
So it's actually like pretty woman because his rate has changed.
Not about the money anymore.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
Yeah, just don't kiss on the mouth, Danny. I am
with you. Now we're done. We don't want Aaron Rodgers fatigue?
But how much of a chip is he with the
draft one week away? Because now let's say he's out.
Does that change a few teams options?
Speaker 6 (16:41):
Well?
Speaker 4 (16:41):
And thoughts specifically the Steelers, Steelers.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
And Minnesota who I mean they'll oddly hanging on to
maybe the Vikings.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
It looks like they've pushed all their chips into the
middle of the table for JJ McCarthy.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
Let me ask you this, do you think Steelers fans
want him? I want to hit up like my personal
Steeler friends and and people I know, like, do you
think the fans are like, yeah, man, Rogers, I don't know.
You know, like I said, when a player is acquired
on your team, it goes back to my first lame
(17:13):
Julia Roberts analogy and by the way, good luck finding
another show that somehow ties random movies and sports together.
You go look and then you'll come back and be like, right,
you were right. Like I said in that movie Something
my best Friend's Wedding, when no one was chasing Julia Roberts,
it's like, well, you gotta remember it. Does anyone really
want you? In this scenario when the Mets got Juan Soto,
(17:35):
God were we happy? When the Dodgers acquired Otani on
that huge deal. My goodness, jerseys are selling off the
shelf when certain players are acquired or re signed, the
fan bases are crazy. Look at the Lakers and Luca
number one selling jersey in the NBA.
Speaker 4 (17:53):
That's awesome.
Speaker 1 (17:53):
You got to remember, are the fans pumped or not?
Give me a team, right, that's a.
Speaker 4 (17:58):
Part of it.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
A team Wheeler's friends. Right, Seriously, just like, take a
little just throw a text message out there and take
your own little test. Have you had any of your
Steelers friends say, man, I hope they get him. I
haven't and I'm not saying that's the peel end all
way to figure this out, but I haven't heard one
person excited about getting him because it feels I'm not
(18:19):
saying it is, but it feels like you're not moving forward.
It feels like you're moving backward if you make that
move during free agency. Danny j. I've seen all of
this in the studio react when our player that we
liked left our team or got resigned. When your team
acquires or loses a player, he has a reaction like
oh man or oh yeah, heck yeah, will Aaron Rodgers?
(18:40):
Warn't that reaction from anyone? Well, if Aaron Rodgers signs
a one year deal with the Steelers, Vikings or some
mystery team that may come out of nowhere, does the
fan base explode in happiness. Well, here's the other thing,
and I hate to bring it up because it's so obvious,
but it is part of the conversation, and it's not
just him and where is he at in his career
Because he's gonna offer great leadership, He's gonna offer something
(19:02):
for ten million dollars. It seems to be worth it.
But you also get that traveling circus that comes along
with them. Is that really worth it? Is that part
of the reason why you know it's not that great
of an option. And then you gotta ask yourself, well,
the price tag is low if a team has a quarterback,
even if they're wishy wash. Yeah there guy, What a
kick in the huevos?
Speaker 3 (19:23):
Have you?
Speaker 7 (19:23):
Like?
Speaker 1 (19:23):
Yeah, you know, we're gonna go with Aaron for a year,
but stick around because next year we may go with you. Like,
as a Niners fan, I find that to be appealing
because I think the Niners have a lot of great
offensive key players still in place. Aaron Rodgers is appealing
if you don't want to pay brock perty fifty sixty
million dollars a year. But then on when that one
year is done, what do you do? You go, hey,
(19:45):
now you're back, right, I don't know, So your thoughts
that's the big story today. Again he says there's no
deadline with the Steelers or any other team, and no
retirement decisions in the future. So your thoughts on Aaron Rodgers.
Apparently he's like boys to men and Julia Roberts, that's
what you got out of our show. Cavino and Rich. Well, hey,
we talked about it before. Ship Station ship station now

Bill Belichick is in the news, and I find it
to be amazing how our perception at the sky has
(23:45):
been altered a little bit in the last boy, will
you say months, maybe years? What changed that? Him doing
aerobics on the beach, do an airplane with his girlfriend?
What changed your impression of his birthday? Was yesterday? I
believe you know where it really started, Rich that Tom
Brady roast looking at me, smiling out there having fun.
(24:05):
He didn't look as grumpy. Yesterday was his seventy third birthday,
So you know what I birthday hoped to be having
that much fun at seventy three. Well, there's two stories
that involve his hot young girlfriend, who, by the way,
is running for Miss Maine USA. Did you see that
she's still a pageant girl? Good for her. The first
(24:29):
part of the story was when she wanted or he
wanted her c seed on all of his emails. Yep,
people said, huh, I mean I guess okay, thought that
was weird, and then everybody went man at arms and
up in arms at the fact that she's on the
(24:50):
practice field like very prominently there, and you know, her
being attractive doesn't help because she's so noticeable. Yeah, she
wasn't dressed down, she was like dressed hot, right, And
was she necessarily doing anything wrong? Well, that's debatable because
the story was why is she there? Like she's so
prominently there, It's like she's in the way. Why is
she there? It's like, my girlfriend's sitting here while we're
(25:15):
doing a show, and what was she doing here?
Speaker 4 (25:17):
She does clean your headphones right before each show.
Speaker 1 (25:20):
Once in a while she'll walk in and, you know,
give me a massage. But there are seriously, there is
something we said about this now, but the update is
this though rich. Yeah, she was simply doing her job apparently,
like making sure the microphones were working properly. It's part
of her gig as an assistant producer or something like that, coordinator,
a producer for a documentary infomercial for NFL Films. And
(25:44):
also that's the other side of the store. Also, the
twenty four year old girlfriend Jordan Hudson wants to make
sure her boyfriend, Bill Belichick, his son receives the utmost respect,
they're saying, So she's quality control. The reason she sees
Seed on emails and present is that any anytime, this
(26:06):
conversation is about, well, whose son's there for nipotism reasons?
And she apparently is like almost handling the administrative nonsense
that Bill's got no time for this. So she's sort
of being an assistant in a way, but the vibe
is becoming, well, she too prominently around. Why does he
(26:27):
need her around so much? I don't think this is
a Yoko Ono breaking up the Beatles situation. I think
it's a Bill Belichick has earned this situation. Well that's
the question. Yeah, Fox Sports Radio Nation, just based on
some of the stuff you've been seeing and hearing again
c Seed on the emails. She's on the practice field
again doing her job, but she's so prominently noticeable it's
a little distracting. You're so used to seeing Bill Belichick
(26:49):
be his own guy, and he's out there just being grumpy.
Do you think he's crossing the line a little bit,
like optically in a way? Is he crossing the line
professionally in any way? Or as Rich just said, did
he earn it? Like zip it? You're not Bill Belichick.
He could do what he wants. I mean, both could
be true. Like I personally think he's I think it's
a weird. Look. He's the greatest coach of all time,
(27:11):
arguably most Super Bowl rings. Who's better than Bill Belichick
and Tom Brady when they were together. I think he's
earned any little perk especially could he no? Get this?
This is not like he took over for Jerry Jones
and he was Jerry Jones coach in Dallas or you know,
now Belichick he's the new head coach or the Jets
or the Niners or the you know, Falcons or something
(27:33):
NFL team. He's at UNC that historically has a bunk
football program. You bring in Bill Belichick, I think you
rolled the red carpet. If you're like, hey, Bill, you
and your girl on side by side foot rubs during practice?
Speaker 4 (27:44):
Do it?
Speaker 1 (27:44):
Yeah? But you see, man, here's what happens. It becomes
online fodder and the distraction taking away from the team.
That's the thing. Is she doing anything wrong now? If anything,
is the fact that she's attracted, young and hot and noticeable,
and people just can't stop talking about it because it's
(28:05):
an unconventional relationship. But I don't understand how how we
think this is going to negatively affect Bill Belichick. I
look at it this way. The only argument you could
give on the other side is you could tell me
if you work from home, you're just as effective. But
there's a part of it. It's like maybe not one
hundred percent right, Like I could work from home. I could,
but maybe you're even if you're ninety nine percent effective,
(28:28):
you're still losing one percent when you do. This is
almost like bring your kid to work day. When you
bring your kid to work. Let's say your kids off
from school and you're like, hey, yea, buddy, just sit
in the lobby, Well dad works. You're you could work fine,
but you have to admit you're like one percent distracted.
That's what I'm saying. There's a little sense of being
distracted here. And it's also proof that she's gonna be
(28:53):
very involved in the UNC program moving forward. That's the
other takeaway. But I'm not sure. I'm not trying to
compare his girlfriend to bring your kid to work day,
But think about it. If I told you Cavino, it's
spring break. This week, my wife had a meeting or
had to do something. Yeah, I'm gonna bring my son.
Don't worry, he's gonna sit in the lobby on his
iPad the whole time while I still do a great
show with you. You don't think every break i'd go
(29:14):
out there like, hey, buddy, you need some Cheetos, you
need a juice box. You're still slightly distracted. And it's
not even that either. Look, let's be very clear too.
Props to Bill Belichick. He's got himself a hot young girlfriend.
All right, let's be real about it. Good for you, dude,
Glad you haven't men fun When you whisper it like that,
it sounds creepier and young girlfriend, and you know, like
(29:35):
Joe Biden, he's a legend, young girlfriend, he's a legend.
He's done it all. Great for him, but don't tell me.
And this goes both ways. This isn't a sexist comment.
If a guy is at the girl's workplace, or if
a guy's hanging out with the girls changes the dynamic.
Meaning rich if all the boys are hanging out and
all of a sudden, my girlfriend comes and she's all
(29:56):
of a sudden hanging we're not ribbing on each other
the same way, right, And if we really wanted to
go at it, there is a sense of, uh, I
don't want to do that in front of her, right.
And it goes both ways. If girls are doing girls
stuff and all of a sudden I come marching in, Hey, ladies,
what's going on? You don't think that's a dynamic shifters.
It lets her to have like her there. Maybe the
(30:18):
coaches and the players they feel like they can't approach
Bill Belichick in the same way because it's in front
of his girlfriend. Like what if someone had like a
serious conversation where they really wanted to be heated at
Bill Belichick. Now they don't because she's there, and it
could change things, and it does cause fodder that I
don't think is necessarily helpful. But is that warrant? Didn't know?
(30:40):
But that's just how life is because she's young and
attractive and he's Bill Belichick. I'll give you an example
and then we'll take your feedback. We'll go to Dan
Buyer for an update. I think Bill Belichick could do
whatever he wants, and I'll explain why. Well, I mean,
he is give me the biggest sports talk show in
the country. You could argue Dan Patrick, McAfee, Collins stephen
A like did the heavy I'm talking like, say that
would be when you and I fill in for DP
(31:02):
or fill in for Colin. Yeah, but you know, if
you're gonna be recording to your statistics and according to
me and my family. But if Dan Patrick or McAfee
or Steven A or Colin or one of the biggest
guys in the game, if someone said, let's say they
retire and then you know, uh, one oh two point whatever,
(31:24):
the ticket was like, hey, can you do a local
radio show once a week. You're a legend and maybe
you're bored. You want to keep doing this, And Colin's
like stars Stars, Fine, I'll do like a weekly Colin segment.
He could show up there in his slippers getting a
massage while he's doing it. They just want him there.
U n C just wants Bill Belichick there. That program
(31:46):
was non existent. Now it's not only on the on
the map. People are gonna watch UNC games kind of
like he's they're so grateful to have in there that
he could do whatever he wants and we're seeing it.
He honestly, he could request the most ridiculous crap, and
they'd be like, from mister bell check. I mean, it
sounds a little crazy, but you got it, sir. Why
(32:06):
would they not? Have you ever watched an UNC football
game in your life? And the answers, no, I don't.
You don't even need to think about it. The answers though,
will you watch one this year? The answer is yes, Well, okay,
mac Brown was coaching there previous No, he cared, No,
they did. I mean he had he had no. He
had them definitely elevated from where they were prior. I
didn't care and that's all. They were winning eight, nine,
ten games a year. But now it's like, oh, you
(32:27):
got an NFL coach like mac Brown won a national championship.
But I'm just saying it wasn't completely desolate there mack
banging a twenty four year old whoa no, but you
know what, I hope not. That's why this is very
odd because she's the same age as the actually around
the same age as the players he coaches, and we've
never seen any other significant other on the field with
(32:51):
the coaching staff in this way at all. In fact,
we often bring up the fact that Joe Montana used
to call his wife on the sideline and thought that
was odd. Bill Belichi has his hot young girlfriend right
there with him. You know what, we could take your
feedback next. The phone calls are coming in, but let's
go to Dann Buyer for an update.
Speaker 3 (33:06):
dB.
Speaker 1 (33:07):
Good see man, you two guys free Azie.
Speaker 9 (33:09):
Quarterback Aaron Rodgers as you take touchdown off the top
was on the Pad McAfee show today talking about a
variety of topics. Basically says he hasn't made up his
mind yet on what he wants to do. Did fill
us in a little bit on what happened in those
conversations with the Minnesota Vikings.
Speaker 5 (33:23):
There's been a lot of narratives that have not been
anywhere near accurate. Ben was on the show talking about
me waiting around for the Vikings.
Speaker 6 (33:31):
That's not accurate either. I've known Kevin forever.
Speaker 5 (33:34):
I've known Kevin O'Connell since we used to work out
in San Diego.
Speaker 6 (33:38):
County in North County.
Speaker 5 (33:40):
I've known him for seventeen eighteen years and we got
a good friendship. So we talk outside of just you
know this offseason. We keeping test during the season, so
we've had good communication.
Speaker 9 (33:50):
Rogers revealing a lot, saying right now, some personal things
going on in his life. That's why he hasn't made
a decision, but did confirm that he has spoken with
Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin or as he calls him,
Mike multiple times. Bucks guard Damian Lillard could be back
sooner rather than later off of his blood thinning meds
and could return to the lineup as the Bucks start
a playoff series with the Pacers on Saturday. Lillard, though
(34:12):
will not play in Game one in Indianapolis. Sacramento Kings
are hiring former Knicks GM Scott Perry is their new
general manager. Memphis All American guard PJ. Haggerty is entering

dude that the Yankees believe in a lot. They think
he's got some good potential. For sure, I'm gonna keep
an eye on Will Warren from this moving this point,
moving forwards, I'm like, Will Warren, I had to look
(37:08):
him up. I'm like, I never heard of Will Warren.
All right, look at the clock. It's fifty. When Old
School hits come.
Speaker 6 (37:14):
On, there's a surgeon.
Speaker 1 (37:17):
Ye go back.
Speaker 8 (37:22):
Back into town throwing it back for a Thursday Old
School when fifty hits, that's fifty after cn R give
you the time capsule topic and we reminisce together.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
Yeah, we go old School every Thursday. But before, dude,
do you mind taking two quick phone calls? I forgot
we had people holding or we got time? It's all good,
you know what, let's do it. Who do we got
to wrap up the Bill Belichick conversation, the Aaron Rodgers stuff.
I don't want to keep people holding if they're kind
enough to call. Right. Matt in Alaska wanted to talk
about Belichick and his girlfriend. What's up?
Speaker 4 (37:55):
Man?
Speaker 3 (37:56):
Hey, what's going on? Boys?
Speaker 1 (37:57):
What's up buddy?
Speaker 7 (37:57):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (37:58):
My take on the whole thing is, you know, Bill
never wanted this job in the first place. He only
took this job so that it's sun could have it
three years after he's there. So having his little side
piece around up in everybody's business, trying to make her
mark on the program is a way for somebody to
at North Carolina to say the wrong thing, do the
wrong thing, and it gives Bill the out that he wants.
(38:18):
He doesn't have to he doesn't have to coach. His
son can slide in and everybody moves on happily. Ever
after that's.
Speaker 1 (38:24):
All, well, do you know what?
Speaker 4 (38:25):
You know what?
Speaker 1 (38:26):
It holds some weight and I appreciate that at all.
But you never saw him do that before because he
took the gig real serious, right, So there's something to
be said. About that and Patrick and Illinois. Some thoughts
on Aaron Rodgers. You said you wanted to know if
Steeler fans were excited. Yeah, Patrick's a Steelers chef. Hey
are you excited about potentially getting Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 7 (38:46):
I do not want Aaron Rodgers. Aaron Rodgers is a
band aid, and we don't need a band aid at quarterback.
We need to hope Shader slides to us. If he's
not there, then we grab Dark one of the other guys,
mill Roe or someone. We don't need a band aid.
We need our quarterback of the future.
Speaker 1 (39:08):
And for relax, we're really thinking about it. I imagine
that's how most of the fans feel. Well, we shall
see you Aaron Rodgers steps in these great would love
to see him surprise everybody back to old school. Thank you, buddy.
I'm sorry. I just didn't want to leave those people
holding I appreciate it. Man, It's Easter weekend. I got
to take care of our peeps peeps first, That's what
(39:29):
I'm saying. That's what I say. You gotta support Pause,
the only egg dye coloring in the game. Pause has
nothing to do with my peep's reference. No, but I'm saying,
if he's a gross who eats peeps little kids. I
love peeps and I love our Fox Sports Radio Turbo
Peep Marshmallow. Now we reminisce on Thursdays, we throw it back.
(39:50):
Danny g had a meme that got us thinking, and
we want to include you and get you thinking too.
The viral meme went like this, what's a lost skill
that the current generation lacks understanding of? And there's so
many ways you could take this. I get tied into
sports too. It is Fox Sports Radio a lost skill
(40:10):
that the current generation lacks understanding of. There's so many
examples you could think of, but when it comes to sports,
it's not necessarily a skill. But I don't think the
generation will ever have a true understanding of how impactful
and great Bo Jackson was because he never won. So
it's our job to pass that info on. They'll never
(40:32):
really know because they didn't see it. That's not a skill, dope,
I'm saying, but it's something Let me read the question again,
ye that the current generation lacks understanding of. They really
a lack understanding, but total understanding as far as skills go.
I have a skill that is irrelevant now I had
(40:54):
the unique ability to remember people's phone numbers after giving
them to be like one or twice, you could ask
me now, like my childhood friend's phone numbers, and I
remembered it. What a waste of a skill means nothing?
In fact, I bet you most of you don't even
know your wife's phone number. I mean along those seam
lines baseball card stats. Now we're seeing maybe a little
(41:15):
bit of a comeback of that because baseball cards have
done such a great job of making it exciting again
with their rookie debuts and all these special cards. But
you would know the back of the baseball card. You
know who batted what and when and how many homelikes.
You knew that Wade Bogs bat three sixty eight. You
mean all that stuff because of baseball cards, the lost
(41:36):
skills that you had that mean nothing in twenty twenty five.
Will take your feedback. Next, going old school, Cavino and
Rich
