Speaker 2 (02:32):
Now, wait, is this the time where I tell you, guys,
my bracket is perfect so far?
Speaker 1 (02:36):
This is where you tell me that I have a
theory on people until McNee wins here, and then I
have a theory. I have a theory about people's whack
ass brackets. And by the way, who's mcnee's playing. Oh
there are twelve seed beating of five? That's the technical.
I gotta ask you, what do you think this? There's
(02:57):
two questions at hand, because my brain goes a mile
a minute, or at least, I think, what's the most
frustrating beginning to a sport? Meaning if you're bowling and
you have an open frame in the first frame, that
if you're a pitcher and you get lit up in
the first inning and it's like, oh, one run, you
(03:18):
gave up two runs in the first inning, and yeah,
a rough start, or is it like what's happening to
Georgia right now? They're in the first half and it's
thirty to ten Gonzaga. Like when you just when you
just can't get it going, what's the worst fit? That's
when you wish you had life's reset button. Remember when
you have a bad start to a Nintendo game on
a throw back Thursday and you just reach with your
big toe to reset it.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
How about when your favorite NFL team gets scored on
and then your defense comes up you know you know
what I mean, Like you get blown out in the
first quarter.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Basically when they score quick and you like fumble the
kickoff and it's like fourteen nothing like that. You come
to part to recover. You see it in fighting a lot.
Someone comes out, you know, with a nasty right hook
to the head. That dude gets popped. He's never the
same throughout the rest of the fight. I got one
now again. It's sometimes it just unfortunately bad circumstances. You
(04:10):
ever see a good fighter gets accidentally headbutted early on
in the fight or cut and yeah you're cut, And
I'm saying so they're already rattled, they're struggling. Saw the
boxing history, the tim zoof Andora. But what I'm saying
that was the result of a headbutt. So imagine you're
a fighter and you're game planning and training for months
(04:32):
and in like the second round, the other guy accidentally
head but you and you cut your eyebrow and then
you're bleeding. Where is life's reset most important? In sports?
Life's reset? But how about when you're in a heated
game of mini golf, not real golf because I'm not
there yet in life, but mini golf and you start
off with a really bad like five six? What harm no?
(04:54):
I think the number one answer for me. I mean, yeah,
I was gonna say is we all have this fantasy
that we're gonna ball three hundre. The other ones are
all relatable if you're an athlete of a pro level,
But I think if you're bowling with some friends, or
you go with the wife or your girlfriend or your
kids bowling, if you have like a seven and then
you missed the pocket on like on a spare and
(05:14):
you're like open frame. Yeah, starting a game to start
the game weeknight. However, as you know, a superstar pitcher.
When I was like a teenager that never played as
an adult you think you were a bellyitcher. But I
do remember the feeling of a one two three first
(05:35):
inning as a pitcher versus two guys got on base.
I let up a run like you just it's just
not how you want to start a game. So that's
another big one. What's the worst because it looks like
Clemson's off to a band's start. It looks like Gonzaga
is beating Georgia by twenty in the first So, speaking
of brackets, which I know we're not going to have
time for it on this show. We will talk about
brackets and other conversations to avoid on over promp missed
(06:00):
right after this show on Fox Sports Radios YouTube paid,
but listen unless your final four is out of it,
you're in it really until then because there's upsets in
every round. But I did want to bring this up today.
Cavina will say that I've been dropping this fun fact
all week. The chance of someone having a perfect bracket
(06:21):
is one in nine point two quintillion quintillion impossible, and
that one is heinnic and one is mister perfect, mister perfect,
one in nine point two quintillion. So just for perspective,
I did a little research. I don't mind you dropping
that fun fact, because every time you've said it, I
(06:42):
could drop that cool mister perfect joke. Fourth time you've
done it, I've been counting. Yeah. No, it's given me
the opportunity to shout out mister perfect four or five
times the late Great Curd heading so one in nine
point two quintillion. I want to just throw some perspective
at you guys of other far fetched things. So when
(07:03):
your bracket's already busted and it's you know, two oh
eight West Coast time, mm hmm, and you're thinking my bracket,
and for the record, we all filled out our bracket.
We're just trying to explain that no one wants to
hear about yours. Everybody cares about their own, they just
don't care about yours. I made that point when we
walked in Brie, who's a lovely producer. I love Bree.
(07:24):
She's in the editing room. Oh, Briella, Briella, she ripped
her pants today. I'm sure she wants me to tell
everyone on Fox Sports Radio. Everyone laughed out, I don't
even know that I'm here. That's why I sorry. Running
through the parking garage in sweats ye, I swear, Yeah,
so bri ripped her pants. She said, she bought a
cute new outfit and it ripped in the crotch. She
(07:46):
had to have like uber go to toss pree right there.
That's pre and she had to have sweatpants delivered here
so that she get up pants. And I said, you
know what, no one would even notice because everyone's so
self involved that if you would have turned the corner
Bree and someone said rich for a million dollars, what
is bre wearing?
Speaker 3 (08:05):
I would have got it wrong. Also, we have staplers
and tape. You could just jimmy rig that thing. Give
mcguy for that. I wouldn't have noticed. So we're all
over stimulated today. I'm not even paying ten.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Everyone's overstimulated, and everyone's only concerned about themselves. When you
have a big piple, you could have a big pimple
on your nose and you think everyone's looking. No one
even notices. However, this bracket thing one in nine point
two quintillion. For perspective, I did a little research other
(08:36):
things that seem very impossible. What do you think the
chances of winning the power ball are not as high
as the bracket one in two hundred and ninety two million. Wow.
To win the Mega millions, one in three hundred and
two million. To get eaten by a shark in the ocean,
(09:00):
one in two hundred and sixty five million. Wow. Really,
that's some bad luck to be struck by lightning one
in sixteen thousand. A lot of people get tricked by lightning, apparently.
And to bring it back to sports, to show the
perspective of this perfect bracket where you guess all sixty
(09:21):
three games right, one in nine point two quintillion. To
make it into professional sports. Fewer than two percent of
D one collegiate athletes make it into the pros. Less
than two percent of Division one college athletes go professional,
in fact, in the NFL one in ten thousand, in
(09:42):
Major League Baseball one in twenty two thousand, and in
the NBA one in fifty five thousand. Wow. So to
put a perspective of the people out there that played
sports in high school, college, anything to make to the
pros is tough enough. You've seen those You've seen those
people do, like their little demonstrations like you you know,
(10:02):
how many kids play a little league or pony ball?
Millions and millions, and then how many of those played
junior high, high school, college, minor league. Get your whittles down,
whittles down, and whittles down. So to think how tough
it is to get into pro sports, to win the lottery,
to be eaten by a shark. You know, I didn't
look this one up. Knock on what to billion a
plane crash. That's why when all these terrible flight things
(10:25):
are happening, you still have to remember there's one hundred
thousand flights to take off out of the United States
every day, one hundred thousand.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
You have a better chance to be killed by a
meteorite than you do to have a perfect bracket.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
It's true. Yeah, so you're telling me there's a chance
so one in eight hundred and forty millions. Well think
about it, like so to have a meteor hit you
the odds. So when companies are like, hey, we'll give
you millions if you get a perfect bracket, they might
as well say we'll give you trillions when you get
a perfect bracket. It's maybe a quintillion.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
Uns promising you a trip to Mars, which we know
is not even possible. So like, maybe it's like if
you actually somehow did get a perfect bracket. He's like, Okay,
we'll figure that out at some point. But I was saying,
you brought it up yesterday. I thought the documentary was fascinating.
Do you remember that Pepsi promotion where they select enough points?
He was a little cut out coupon or a little
(11:16):
uh the barcode upc thing on a case of pepsi
or mount du jet liner.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
You needed like sixty million points a fighter fighters. But
they made it like a joke in the commercial and
people literally try to do it right. That's a document
I actually did it, and you know what it's It
just shows you how hard it is. The end.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
I just want to put a perspective because what are
you gonna do with all that pepsi in Mountain dew?
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Could you watch that? Doubt? No? But i'man you have
to store all that in like a warehouse. Then it
goes bad. I did. I forgot how he did it,
but they did. It's now they got a warehouse. He
had people to fund him, because yeah, he had to
get investors. You can't just buy millions of kise how
much you think millions of case of the pepsi costs
so this kid did it.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
You might as well just buy a fighter jet from
like the Russians or something. I mean, it's much more
cost efficient.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
So just to put a perspective, if your bracket stinks,
you're not alone. Everyone's bracket stinks. In fact, was the
luckiest thing that ever happened to you're growing up? It's
a good question. I never even want a raffle, Never
a raffle, nothing like that. No, yo, a cakewalk. My
kids little league at Ben's pony Ball opening day, we
(12:26):
want a fifty dollars gift card to an ice cream shop.
That's so lucky. It's not a perfect bracket, but this
is amazing story in my life. Okay, it's not a
perfect bracket. Okay, but there has to be what's right
under quintillion? There's probably one and trillion chances a bazillion.
This is at least one in a bazillion chances. You
know those carnival games where there's bottles and you have
(12:49):
to throw those little red rings on those bottles. It's
very hard, but the little red rings are just the
right size to fit on top of those bottles, right,
And there's usually like basketball, and they usually usually one
like golden bottle. I'm glad you said that, because there
was five hundred bottles. Okay, one gold bottle. I swear
to God this is the truth. And I think it
(13:10):
was six flags, if I'm not mistaken. I six flags.
There's one gold bottle. The rest of them are like brown, right,
and you get those little bucket of red rings. Dude.
I had the little flick, a little flicker, right, dude.
It was like, I swear you so it was like
it was like one of my ancestors and an angel
from above caught it mid flight and placed it perfectly
(13:34):
right on the only golden bottle, like Christopher Lloyd and
angels in the oute. So weird. I couldn't believe my eyes. Dude.
It was like bleak. I was like what dude. Nobody
believed it, and you know what. You know, they advertised
like you can win a TV. They didn't have anything.
They didn't have anything because no one wins that. So
I'm like, wait o, wait, so they advertise like flatscreen
(13:54):
TV or a mountain bike and they're probably here, here's
a tweety bird stuff. They're like, just come in the back,
we'll discuss this get for you. There's only one out
of five hundred the chances of winning. I get Scooby Doode.
Hell no. And it's funny you say that, rich. I
actually got a mountain bike out of it. I wanted
the TV, but they were like, are we gonna give
you a mountain bike? And at the time, I was like,
I could actually use a mountain I was in college. Oh,
(14:16):
I could use a mountain bike. Took the mountain bike
and uh, that's my story. That was due. But that
was a one in a trillion chance when I did
the math, So yeah, I was pretty lucky. It's no bracket, dude,
but it was pretty dope. I mean there's some people
you see that on their DraftKings or FanDuel or whatever.
They'll be like, I'm like one leg away from a
(14:37):
you know, fifteen leg parlay, and that itself is one
of those. But that's a bet I'm saying. In life,
when do you feel like Danny, do you have a
moment where you're like, yeah, it was like my luckiest moment.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Yeah as a kid, No, I mean I was. I
was like, I got a job that I was trying
really hard for. I was fifteen years old at the time,
and it was an official, legit FM radio station, so
I felt super lucky getting hired after the intern You
know that feeling after an interview where you it's the
(15:09):
hardest night's sleep, you don't know if you're going to
get a call back. I had to bring a work
permit in. I'm thinking, there's the odds are stacked against me.
So by far, I was like the little doogie houser
on the FM radio station staff. So that probably was
like my luckiest moment as a kid.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
And we see these half court shots with all that
pressure for big bucks. You know what was really lucky.
Did you see that Lucas shot warming up? Give me
a backreatt? Yeah, Richard, you see this dude, he's like
in the stands and he just launches it up from
behind the backboard, like by the tunnel. It goes from
(15:45):
behind the backboard, high arc, swish, nothing by the bottom.
Remember when we were kids. It was way crazier than
anything you've seen Steph Curry do before. Larry Bird would
do that in warm ups and I remember seeing that
on like Warner Wolfs. I gotta say, you're as a kid,
you know, when you think about luck in sports, of course,
the immaculate reception comes to mind. But the immaculate reception
(16:07):
for me is when that field goes kicked and it
was a dude that jumped out of the stands with
such precision, perfect and he caught it midair. People don't
you know, People don't realize that was Isaac Lowancross. True
timing involved on that.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
That's crazy that security guards were a little touchy with
me after that.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
I remember being like, wait a minute, but one more
sports one and I have I know Sam, you have one,
and I have a story about Covino that I think
was his luckiest moment. But in sports, do you guys
remember when Paul O'Neill bobbled the ball in right field
and for some reason he's like it and he just
kicked it with his foot and it was like went
(16:48):
in line to the cutoff man. It's on his baseball
reference like throws righty, kicks lefty or whatever. Yeah, it
was unbelievable. But is that legal? It is? Wow, you
can't throw your glove at a ball, can you?
Speaker 5 (16:58):
Though?
Speaker 1 (16:58):
I don't think that right? What if it lands in
the club? Hold on, can you know show me the
Lucas shot? Yeah, watch the shot. Talk about luck. There's
like so much luck in that. I mean, there's obvious skill,
but look how ridiculous in warm ups? Yeah, and then
you would go on to have what that huge first quarter?
Yeahursor yeah, yeah. So my moment that I think Kevino's
forgetting was his luckiest moment. And I don't want to
(17:21):
be vulgar here on Fox Sports Radio, but don't make
me clumpy. Does this involve Patriots cheerleaders? Close your ears?
All right? Better? We were in our twenties. Every every
good story starts with we were at our twenties. Well,
justifies it justifies it. Wait wait, wait, you need one
of these sound effects. It was two thousand and something.
(17:41):
We're at a super Bowl party, and at this super
Bowl party were the New England Patriots cheerleaders and you
can imagine they were smoking hot. They were one of
these girls, you could imagine a model, blonde looking cheerleader,
probably like the hottest one. She's like, hey, you was
like she had like she was like teeriod, like she
(18:03):
was sad. She comes up to Covino and she's like,
you come with me, like me, and she brings Covino
back to her hotel. I remember waiting in the lobby
for two minutes, but apparently her boyfriend had cheated on her,
and she's like, I'm gonna get revenge. Cavino happened to
(18:25):
look like her boyfriend. Yeah. Yeah. The scoop was I
looked I resembled him, so and I remember we reaped
the benefits of this guy being a Peter.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
I guess I got cheated on by Mario Lopez. I yes, yeah, probably,
And I remember being.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Like, did this just happened? Did he just happen to
be a guy that looked like this hot girl? A
lucky night? So yeah, that's got probably. Sometimes luck's on
your side, sometimes not so much, Sam, what's your lucky story?
Speaker 3 (18:52):
So about thirteen months ago, this was a February mid
February of last year, des Bryant on X shared that
he did a third teen leg college basketball parlay and
he won four hundred and seventeen thousand dollars. He had
a thirteen leg parlay. That's crazy and he won. I mean,
to be a retired football player and to win four
(19:12):
hundred and seventeen thousand dollars, that's like a couple paychecks.
Then you're like Okay, that's some good money.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
You know what. The big story in the East Coast
I was growing up. If you grew up in the
New York, New Jersey area, this was a big headline.
I don't know if it made it out here on
the West coast. This is at the height of when
Jennifer Lopez is Jenny from the block, j Lo. Everyone's
at bull j Loo, j Lo as popular as she
is now. The big story was her mother went down
to Atlantic City and Jlo's mom won the million dollar
slot machine or real of fortune. Yeah, and it was like, really,
(19:40):
of all people, Jlo's mom, like, as if she needs it,
but remember that story. Yeah, of course he was like
Jennifer Lopez her mom, of course, of all people. So
your lucky story, feel free to share eight seven seven
ninety nine one fox, but you need to be what
one And I'll say, well till you say it one
last time and then I'll retire it until next year. Guys.
One in nine point two quintillion ridiculously more tricky than
(20:04):
winning the powerball, the Mega millions and getting eaten by
a shark while being struck by a meteor at the
same time. You could happen. You could take the phone
out of anything. Definitely could happen. Hey, guys, you could
do it, though, Remember so you're telling me there's a chance.
If Harry thought there was a chance, Lloyd Lloyd Christmas.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
A guy like you is squirrelgool like me, skirrel goool.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
I was way off, all right, thank you. I was saying,
if you get that perfect bracket, Fox Sports Radio pays
you in IOUs a briefcase, will I use it maybe occasionally?
Speaker 3 (20:40):
Five dollars money? Guys, this sound's as good as money,
I say a ferrari.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
When we first started promoting this, I pictured our boss,
Scott Shapiro sitting down with the lawyer for our network
and saying, kit one million, can we say ten million?
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Say you could say five hundred million. There's not a briefcase.
With a million, you can end up. You can end
up with a mountain. You could say five hundred million dollars.
And Colin Cowhard gives you lapt answers.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
They were like, Howie Managel, briefcases on the on the table.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
I think it's not impossible, but it's the closest thing
to impossible. It's improbable. No, technically, it's not impoastically, it's
not impossible, but this thing you could. But we just
talked about how you could win the power Ball and
get hit by a meteor, and still that's better odds
while getting eaten bread. Here's a question to move on from.
(21:31):
What's more likely to happen in our lifetime? Someone just
miraculously dumb luck gets a perfect bracket ever, or we
see alien aliens aliens no doubt. Do you guys remember
the movie Hot Tub Time Machine where Rob Cordrey bets
something because he's like, I know the fast and it changes,
but he bets something like dirty or sexual? Do you
remember that at the bar when he's playing pool. So hey,
(21:53):
I guess anything could happen. You're right, there's no such
thing as impossible. But one to nine point two quinn,
I'll take my chances. All right, we got more Kavina
on Rich. We're gonna go old school. It's an anniversary
of something. We're gonna talk some Bronni the Angels and
Ron Washington have a weird new rule in the clubhouse,
and I'm curious what you guys think about it. I
have a big take on it all. Next right here,

(23:21):
back in the day people used to like call Colin.
Now everybody's all about John Cena, the greatest heal of
all time. I finally watch it. Did anyone else? Just
skim through Monday Night Raw? John seen his first speech
as a bad guy. So good. I'm not even a
big wrestling fan these days, but it was really, really,
really good. So if you need something, Oh yeah, it's great.
(23:42):
Iowa Sam one of the ones, and who's playing some
j low throwing it back to when Jalo's mom won
millions of dollars on a slot machine. My love don't
cost a thing because my mom won all this money,
exact and I have money. The story was like, why
her mom they got enough money? Yeah, well, don't cost
something unless you buy a sick see million dollar house
with Ben Affleck and get divorced a month later. Talking
(24:03):
about crazy luck, you need crazy luck to get a
perfect bracket. Look at Clemson's coming back.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Oh yeah, they got three minutes to the point game.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Yeah. And by the way, speaking of to come back.
While you were watching John Cena, I was watching a
new Burt Kreischer special and it's called Lucky Lucky Yes
on Netflix. So whatever you're watching, enjoy it, Enjoy your
March madness, dipsy Dude, dunk Guru, and a week from
today we'll all be enjoying some race ball enjoy over
(24:33):
promise right after this show. But let's get to the
phone calls at eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.
Then we'll talk some Ron Washington, Hin nice? What up
Joe in Sacramento? What's up? Joe?
Speaker 6 (24:44):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (24:44):
What's going on? Guys?
Speaker 1 (24:45):
What's our brother?
Speaker 5 (24:46):
I wanted to share a lucky story with you guys
that I experienced back way back in the late nineties,
mid nineties. Okay, twouand and sixth grade, there was a
soda company, I don't know if you guys remember it
called Surge.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Of course, they were giving.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Out prizes, you know, under the bottle cap type, saying well,
I found a bottle cap and I looked at it
and there was a code on it. I got the code.
It was for the walkie talkies, So I won two
free walkie talkies. I was stoked. Well, then it got
better because I was I was waiting for him to
come they came. My dad says, let's check out the range.
I started walking down the road. Hey was at the house.
(25:22):
Got about a quarter mile down the road. I found
a twenty dollars bill.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
And that's the luckiest this guys, that we got. Finding
money's great, you know, finding money and laundry that you forgot.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
I found a dollar on a park bench or on
a bus stop bench, and I was like, my lucky day.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
A nickel pocket, nickel my pocket, and I got a
dollar a dollar. Thanks for sharing, We appreciate it. Shout
out to rapid radios too. By the way, speaking of luck,
to wrap it up, it all comes down to who's
lucky enough to win. March manness your bracket. No one's
gonna be perfect. You feel that way about box pools
at the Super Bowl, like you could get crappy numbers.
I always remember this story my dad loves to tell
(26:01):
where he got eight and nine. And this was the
Super Bowl, Danny, where your Raiders ended up beating the
Washington Redskins. Yeah, he's terrible. I remember being a little boy,
I could hardly understand football. He's like, oh, buddy, Dad's
not gonna win. These are the worst numbers. These are
the Weist and the Raiders won thirty eight to nine
(26:22):
and eight and nine are not traditionally good numbers for
a box pool, so sometimes you get lucky. I always
think of this when you go to a stadium. And
speaking of Burke Kisher, see the show All Ties Together.
I saw recently, for the hell of it, he just
bought everyone in his whole section at a ballgame a
bunch of fifty to fifty raffle tickets. Did you see that?
He just bought a ton of them? Do you know
(26:43):
anyone that's ever won the fifty to fifty at a stadium? No?
I kind of feel like it's a scam. Dude. You'll
see You'll be at Dodger Stadium and they'd be like
the fifty to fifty raffles up to ninety thousand dollars.
You know, you get half and they give the other
half to a charity or something. I've never known one
person to be like, you'll guess what I want forty
grand Where I was at the Brewers game and I
(27:04):
won the fifty to fifty.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Never never met him ever, Like do they have to
publish a winner?
Speaker 1 (27:10):
Ever?
Speaker 2 (27:10):
They don't show a winner up on the scoreboard or
anything at the end of a game.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
Probably is a scam, Danny. So again, we're Kaveno Rich

Oh no way, really Yeah, some cool stuff at Travis Matthews.
So they got really great stuff. Now, before we get
into old school, when fifty hits, we do it every
Thursday throw back conversation. Today's like a terrible anniversary of sorts,
(28:21):
but we're gonna have some fun with it. We'll explain.
Got to talk about Ron Washington. What is he seventy three?
You know what? I always think about how he looks
like George Jefferson.
Speaker 6 (28:33):
Close.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
I think about how long he's been in the game, right,
what a nice guy is, and what a great coach
he's been. I've always I've only heard good things about it.
Oh but don't you remember when some little kid was
baby Ron Washington for Halloween. I do, but he went viral.
It was like the best. It's like things like a
little baby George Jefferson in a Rangers uniform had like
the horseshoe blacks. I don't know why I always think
(28:58):
of that. It's so funny, man, And I always feel
bad for him because that Rangers team was a strike
away from winning the World Series. They went to a
couple World Series and just couldn't get the job done.
Remember they lost to David Freeze and He's one of
those guys you would like to see win eventually, but
not at the expense of my team. But you know,
Ron Washington's been doing it a long time, you know
who never gets blamed. Not that I want to throw
(29:18):
him under the bus. Someone fill in the blank from me.
I know, Isaac's gonna have it on the tip of
his tongue. Who is the right fielder for the Rangers?
Who if he made a really nice play. It wasn't
an easy play by any means, but right fielder for
the Rangers, any Cavilli you stop? It was in Hamilton, No,
but no, it was a It was not a white player.
It was a guy in right field who missed and
(29:40):
got misplayed it slightly. But it was in Nelson Cruse. Cruise.
Nelson Cruz slightly misplayed a ball a little bit. It
would have been a phenomenal play. But if he makes
that play, the Rangers win the World Series and no one,
no one ever really blames Nelson Cruise rightfully, so would
have been but it would have been a really, really
great catch. Anyway. So Ron Washington seventy three years old,
(30:02):
by the way, so keep in mind that's my dad
is seventy three. Yeah, that's perspective because you know, he's
in great shape, he's been doing he's still doing it.
So a lot of people his age retired. If you're
a guy that's you know, roughly forty, your dad is
Ron Washington's age likely, right. So I bring this up
because I'm torn on it, and a lot of times
I want to come here with an opinion where I'm like, guys,
(30:24):
here's my opinions in you know, it's uh in stone,
but I really don't know. I feel like I want
to talk it out with you guys. Ron Washington has
banned phones in the clubhouse for the Angels. I like, now,
the Angels are a team with terrible luck. Speaking of luck,
the Angels are a team that you remember, like a
(30:45):
couple of years ago is the first time they were
in first place at the same time as the Dodgers. Ever,
with the the Angels are never good. Oh two, the
rally Monkey was like their one moment of glory. Last
time they won was when Danny Glover was the manager. Right,
you're gonna come with us too. What about bullpen phones?
They're taking those out too. So Ron Washington, who I
(31:07):
do love his Vibe saying no phones in the club, phones,
no cell phones, no smartphones. And you got to ask yourself,
a bunch of players in their twenties and thirties, are
they gonna be like yo, f this? And he's put
Mike Trout and some of the team leaders in charge
of how much to find should be And it seems
(31:28):
like there's people behind it. And I'm like, they are
behind it, because if they weren't, then they look like
a bunch of complaining biaches. Or do you think a
bunch of young men want a no phone policy? Now
the theory isn't theory? Not the point. The theory is
Ron Washington wants to force his team to talk to
each other exactly, to bond and communicate. Is this forced?
(31:51):
Do you think it's brilliant? Do you think it's ridiculous?
I don't know the answer. I because every time I
convince myself like, dude, outdated, get right Washington out of here,
this is stupid. I think it's great because even if
it doesn't work, it's not going to come back to
this being the issue. Right. It's either gonna work and
great or it doesn't. And that's not even the reason
you thought people didn't want to go to the Yankees
(32:13):
because official hair. Imagine it's like, yeah, dude, you know
all day when you're in the clubhouse and getting ready,
you can't have your phone. Here's what I think. It's
a great idea. First of all, it's also a storyline
on The White Lotus this season, The White Lotus season three.
The whole premise there is they're in Thailand and they're like,
all right, give us your phone so the families could
bond together. And Jason Isaac's character is a businessman who's
(32:35):
dealing with some issues and he doesn't want to give
up his phone, right, But the whole point is so
that you could bond. That's why you're there. Get to
know each other. Take it back, and I think in
this case, you got to think outside the box. And
that's what Ron Washington's doing here. He's like, look, I
played and lived in an era where this was the
way it was, and we all bonded as a team.
We're better as a result. And if this helps the team, good,
(32:57):
But again, if they stink, it's not going to be
because this so it's a no lose move that he
can get the best I'm saying you could argue that,
you know, this outdated type of thinking would would upset
the young players.
Speaker 3 (33:09):
So I just saw a study someone posted about this,
like in Australia or Swede in some country, they did
all the high schools there you could not have your
phone all day, and they found out that kids were
learning better, they had better social skills. They were like
there was less anxiety from like cyberbullying. Iowa's legislature wants
to do this too, where they're going to ban cell
phones all day and it's good. It's been overwhelming positive.
(33:33):
So it's like these guys are paid millions, they can
go without their phone for however many hours.
Speaker 1 (33:36):
I'm all for it in high schools. I'm wondering will
it work in a clubhouse? Think about it. We'll take
your feedback. Next, let's go to our buddy i Lo
for an update. Isaac. Well, a lot going on in
the hang on. Hey man, you want to put your
phone away? Sorry? Look at you?
Speaker 6 (33:56):
Sorry?
Speaker 1 (33:57):
Ron the smart You.
Speaker 4 (34:01):
Know the real reason Arty Morino doesn't want to pay
the wireless bill.
Speaker 1 (34:04):
That's all right, family plan.
Speaker 4 (34:08):
In the n CEDLA Tournament, the name of the day
McNeese the twelve seed trying to hold on to a
huge upset against five seed Clemson. Mcneise led this game
fifty one to twenty nine with seven forty one left
to play in the second half, but since then Clemson
has outscored mcneise thirty three to sixteen to make it
(34:31):
a ballgame again. We're now down to twenty two seconds
left in the second half. McNeice the twelve seed holding
on to a five point leadover Clemson, sixty seven to
sixty two again in Round one of the NCAA Tournament.
Right now, eight seed Gonzaga has a forty eight to
twenty seven a half time lead over nine seed Georgia.
(34:52):
Gonzaga jumped out to leeds of thirteen to nothing and
thirty to five and six seed BYU on top of
eleven seed Bridge Junia Commonwealth fifty six to thirty nine,
twelve minutes left to play in the second half. Earlier,
one seed Auburn over sixteen seed Alabama State eighty three
to sixty three. Aarburn actually led this game by just
one point with one fourteen left in the first half.
(35:14):
One seed Houston over sixteen seed SIU Edwardsville seventy eight
to forty nine seed Creighton knocking off eight seed Louisville
eighty nine seventy five behind twenty nine points from Jamia
and Neil. Three seed Wisconsin getting past fourteen seed Montana
eighty five sixty six, and four seed Perdue held off
thirteen seed high Point seventy five to sixty three. Finally,
(35:35):
in Major League Baseball, you've heard of them selling at
concession stands the ice cream in the miniature batting helmets, right.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
I feel like that's my favorite part of going to
a game.
Speaker 4 (35:46):
Slider Sundays this season, Steve Cavino's New York Yankees will
be selling Tiramie Sue in miniature batting helmets made with espresso,
mascar pony cream, Lady Fan, your cookies and cocoa powder,
bone appetite.
Speaker 1 (36:03):
Guys like you, guys here on the West Coast, don't
know as much about the Tira masseux A little uh.
Each one will cost eight hundred and thirty nine dollars,
probably will be like eighteen dollars. You actually know what
they call that out in the West Coast. What do
they call it? Tira me Sue?
Speaker 3 (36:18):
You come on, It's reggious. Meet Tirara me, Sue, you
look at the time one more time. Look at the clock.
Speaker 1 (36:28):
That's pretty good. You got with that, said the old
School next right here on Cavino and Rich Hang tight,
great one, Sam, all right, get lucky and good luck
with your bracket. The madness is here Covino and Rich
Lifromati rack dot Com Studio. A retractor Supply knows that
(36:51):
a winning season takes practice, teamwork, and a can do attitude. Thankfully,
when you have a neighbor like tractor Supply, teamwork comes easy.
Whether you're caring for pets, chickens or a few acres,
our team members will help you succeed season after season.
Tractor Supply for life out here. Now, hey, can I
just say this before we get into old school? Yeah,
(37:12):
you're playing some Get lucky? Is that the Legend of
the Phoenix? The Pharrell and Paft punk right. It didn't
get a lot of hype, but it's such a great watch,
especially if you have kids. It's called Peace by Piece.
It's the story of Pharrell Williams, but told in lego form,
all lego characters, the soundtracks phenomenal. That's also definitely worth
(37:33):
the watch. It didn't get a lot of hype, but
I loved it. Robby Williams tried to do the same
with chimpanzees and it didn't work, right, Yeah, with like
animated monkeys. Yeah it didn't work. But anyway, before you
go old school, one quick thing. Everyone around the room,
where is McNeice? Does anyone even know? Yeah? We both know.
Did you look at up like today?
Speaker 2 (37:52):
Yeah, because we saw the Pokes shirts and I was like,
that's interesting because I didn't think they were from Texas.
Speaker 1 (37:57):
They are from Louisiana.
Speaker 3 (37:59):
Lake Charles, Louisiana, right across the lake from New Orleans.
Basically McNeice, who just beat Clemson, the big upset the Cowboys.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
Cow is gonna say the cowboys.
Speaker 2 (38:09):
That explains the Poke shirts because we were like, should
it be like the Crawdads or something like something very Cajun,
you know.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
Named after an educator from the early nineteen hundreds McNeese.
So look at that. Well again, we're covin Owenrich everything
at covene o Rich and we're going to return to
the Ron Washington conversation. So think about that. He's saying
no phones in the clubhouse. We'll get to that next.
We do this every Thursday Old School and fifty hits. A.
(38:37):
What we're gonna do is go back.
Speaker 6 (38:41):
Back into town throwing it back for a Thursday Old
School went fifty hits. That's fifty after CNR give you
the time capsule topic and we reminisce together.
Speaker 1 (38:53):
Yeah. So last week we were on vacation. I was
doing the backstroke in a sone. Rich. You were in
Mexico with the sp breakers. Rich was in a booty
shaking contest that yeah, people build on't know the views
in Cabo. We weren't here. And last week was the
anniversary of when Rudy Gobert rupped the microphones remember that.
Of course we were working at ESPN at the time. Like,
(39:13):
what is going on? Yeah he started COVID. Yeah yeah, Like, man,
he's not taking this serious. This is a bad look.
I remember sitting in the newsroom when we worked up there,
and it was the day last week when we all
got work. Wait, Tom Hanks has COVID. Yeah, wait, this
is getting serious now, Tom Hanks. Well, this week, Danny g.
(39:35):
You said one of your greatest memories was hearing the
news right about when COVID started. Yeah, it was announced
that Tom Brady officially agrees to move on to Tampa
Bay for a two year deal fifty million guaranteed. Yeah,
because we were like, is there even going to be
an NFL season? Yeah? So you know, we started hearing
all these different random things and could we go back
(39:57):
to work. We were washing our hand, singing Happy Birthday,
so we wanted. It wasn't a fun time. It really wasn't.
But as we look back five years ago this week
when that happened, what are some of your random memories
during COVID could be sports related, doesn't have to be.
It could be sports, It could be just those random
(40:18):
things you remember, like going to the supermarket and they
would only let certain people in at a time. I
remember they would let old ladies in early in the morning. Yeah,
senior citizen, am. But if you got some random memories
five years ago this week, we're talking the anniversary of coronavirus,
and I bring it up because today is the day
(40:41):
five years ago Tiger King was released on Netflix. So
we met Joe Exotic on this day five years ago today,
So leave that, we'll reminisce a little bit five years
ago your odd, weird memories from the early days of COVID.
Oh you know you could do too. Look at your
phone and search March twenty twenty, see where you were
on this day. It's wild, it's weird. We'll reminisce a
(41:02):
little bit. And of course that Ron Washington story, we'll
get back to that too,

Speaker 2 (02:32):
Now, wait, is this the time where I tell you, guys,
my bracket is perfect so far?
Speaker 1 (02:36):
This is where you tell me that I have a
theory on people until McNee wins here, and then I
have a theory. I have a theory about people's whack
ass brackets. And by the way, who's mcnee's playing. Oh
there are twelve seed beating of five? That's the technical.
I gotta ask you, what do you think this? There's
(02:57):
two questions at hand, because my brain goes a mile
a minute, or at least, I think, what's the most
frustrating beginning to a sport? Meaning if you're bowling and
you have an open frame in the first frame, that
if you're a pitcher and you get lit up in
the first inning and it's like, oh, one run, you
(03:18):
gave up two runs in the first inning, and yeah,
a rough start, or is it like what's happening to
Georgia right now? They're in the first half and it's
thirty to ten Gonzaga. Like when you just when you
just can't get it going, what's the worst fit? That's
when you wish you had life's reset button. Remember when
you have a bad start to a Nintendo game on
a throw back Thursday and you just reach with your
big toe to reset it.
Speaker 2 (03:40):
How about when your favorite NFL team gets scored on
and then your defense comes up you know you know
what I mean, Like you get blown out in the
first quarter.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
Basically when they score quick and you like fumble the
kickoff and it's like fourteen nothing like that. You come
to part to recover. You see it in fighting a lot.
Someone comes out, you know, with a nasty right hook
to the head. That dude gets popped. He's never the
same throughout the rest of the fight. I got one
now again. It's sometimes it just unfortunately bad circumstances. You
(04:10):
ever see a good fighter gets accidentally headbutted early on
in the fight or cut and yeah you're cut, And
I'm saying so they're already rattled, they're struggling. Saw the
boxing history, the tim zoof Andora. But what I'm saying
that was the result of a headbutt. So imagine you're
a fighter and you're game planning and training for months
(04:32):
and in like the second round, the other guy accidentally
head but you and you cut your eyebrow and then
you're bleeding. Where is life's reset most important? In sports?
Life's reset? But how about when you're in a heated
game of mini golf, not real golf because I'm not
there yet in life, but mini golf and you start
off with a really bad like five six? What harm no?
(04:54):
I think the number one answer for me. I mean, yeah,
I was gonna say is we all have this fantasy
that we're gonna ball three hundre. The other ones are
all relatable if you're an athlete of a pro level,
But I think if you're bowling with some friends, or
you go with the wife or your girlfriend or your
kids bowling, if you have like a seven and then
you missed the pocket on like on a spare and
(05:14):
you're like open frame. Yeah, starting a game to start
the game weeknight. However, as you know, a superstar pitcher.
When I was like a teenager that never played as
an adult you think you were a bellyitcher. But I
do remember the feeling of a one two three first
(05:35):
inning as a pitcher versus two guys got on base.
I let up a run like you just it's just
not how you want to start a game. So that's
another big one. What's the worst because it looks like
Clemson's off to a band's start. It looks like Gonzaga
is beating Georgia by twenty in the first So, speaking
of brackets, which I know we're not going to have
time for it on this show. We will talk about
brackets and other conversations to avoid on over promp missed
(06:00):
right after this show on Fox Sports Radios YouTube paid,
but listen unless your final four is out of it,
you're in it really until then because there's upsets in
every round. But I did want to bring this up today.
Cavina will say that I've been dropping this fun fact
all week. The chance of someone having a perfect bracket
(06:21):
is one in nine point two quintillion quintillion impossible, and
that one is heinnic and one is mister perfect, mister perfect,
one in nine point two quintillion. So just for perspective,
I did a little research. I don't mind you dropping
that fun fact, because every time you've said it, I
(06:42):
could drop that cool mister perfect joke. Fourth time you've
done it, I've been counting. Yeah. No, it's given me
the opportunity to shout out mister perfect four or five
times the late Great Curd heading so one in nine
point two quintillion. I want to just throw some perspective
at you guys of other far fetched things. So when
(07:03):
your bracket's already busted and it's you know, two oh
eight West Coast time, mm hmm, and you're thinking my bracket,
and for the record, we all filled out our bracket.
We're just trying to explain that no one wants to
hear about yours. Everybody cares about their own, they just
don't care about yours. I made that point when we
walked in Brie, who's a lovely producer. I love Bree.
(07:24):
She's in the editing room. Oh, Briella, Briella, she ripped
her pants today. I'm sure she wants me to tell
everyone on Fox Sports Radio. Everyone laughed out, I don't
even know that I'm here. That's why I sorry. Running
through the parking garage in sweats ye, I swear, Yeah,
so bri ripped her pants. She said, she bought a
cute new outfit and it ripped in the crotch. She
(07:46):
had to have like uber go to toss pree right there.
That's pre and she had to have sweatpants delivered here
so that she get up pants. And I said, you
know what, no one would even notice because everyone's so
self involved that if you would have turned the corner
Bree and someone said rich for a million dollars, what
is bre wearing?
Speaker 3 (08:05):
I would have got it wrong. Also, we have staplers
and tape. You could just jimmy rig that thing. Give
mcguy for that. I wouldn't have noticed. So we're all
over stimulated today. I'm not even paying ten.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
Everyone's overstimulated, and everyone's only concerned about themselves. When you
have a big piple, you could have a big pimple
on your nose and you think everyone's looking. No one
even notices. However, this bracket thing one in nine point
two quintillion. For perspective, I did a little research other
(08:36):
things that seem very impossible. What do you think the
chances of winning the power ball are not as high
as the bracket one in two hundred and ninety two million. Wow.
To win the Mega millions, one in three hundred and
two million. To get eaten by a shark in the ocean,
(09:00):
one in two hundred and sixty five million. Wow. Really,
that's some bad luck to be struck by lightning one
in sixteen thousand. A lot of people get tricked by lightning, apparently.
And to bring it back to sports, to show the
perspective of this perfect bracket where you guess all sixty
(09:21):
three games right, one in nine point two quintillion. To
make it into professional sports. Fewer than two percent of
D one collegiate athletes make it into the pros. Less
than two percent of Division one college athletes go professional,
in fact, in the NFL one in ten thousand, in
(09:42):
Major League Baseball one in twenty two thousand, and in
the NBA one in fifty five thousand. Wow. So to
put a perspective of the people out there that played
sports in high school, college, anything to make to the
pros is tough enough. You've seen those You've seen those
people do, like their little demonstrations like you you know,
(10:02):
how many kids play a little league or pony ball?
Millions and millions, and then how many of those played
junior high, high school, college, minor league. Get your whittles down,
whittles down, and whittles down. So to think how tough
it is to get into pro sports, to win the lottery,
to be eaten by a shark. You know, I didn't
look this one up. Knock on what to billion a
plane crash. That's why when all these terrible flight things
(10:25):
are happening, you still have to remember there's one hundred
thousand flights to take off out of the United States
every day, one hundred thousand.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
You have a better chance to be killed by a
meteorite than you do to have a perfect bracket.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
It's true. Yeah, so you're telling me there's a chance
so one in eight hundred and forty millions. Well think
about it, like so to have a meteor hit you
the odds. So when companies are like, hey, we'll give
you millions if you get a perfect bracket, they might
as well say we'll give you trillions when you get
a perfect bracket. It's maybe a quintillion.
Speaker 3 (10:55):
Uns promising you a trip to Mars, which we know
is not even possible. So like, maybe it's like if
you actually somehow did get a perfect bracket. He's like, Okay,
we'll figure that out at some point. But I was saying,
you brought it up yesterday. I thought the documentary was fascinating.
Do you remember that Pepsi promotion where they select enough points?
He was a little cut out coupon or a little
(11:16):
uh the barcode upc thing on a case of pepsi
or mount du jet liner.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
You needed like sixty million points a fighter fighters. But
they made it like a joke in the commercial and
people literally try to do it right. That's a document
I actually did it, and you know what it's It
just shows you how hard it is. The end.
Speaker 3 (11:36):
I just want to put a perspective because what are
you gonna do with all that pepsi in Mountain dew?
Speaker 1 (11:41):
Could you watch that? Doubt? No? But i'man you have
to store all that in like a warehouse. Then it
goes bad. I did. I forgot how he did it,
but they did. It's now they got a warehouse. He
had people to fund him, because yeah, he had to
get investors. You can't just buy millions of kise how
much you think millions of case of the pepsi costs
so this kid did it.
Speaker 3 (12:01):
You might as well just buy a fighter jet from
like the Russians or something. I mean, it's much more
cost efficient.
Speaker 1 (12:05):
So just to put a perspective, if your bracket stinks,
you're not alone. Everyone's bracket stinks. In fact, was the
luckiest thing that ever happened to you're growing up? It's
a good question. I never even want a raffle, Never
a raffle, nothing like that. No, yo, a cakewalk. My
kids little league at Ben's pony Ball opening day, we
(12:26):
want a fifty dollars gift card to an ice cream shop.
That's so lucky. It's not a perfect bracket, but this
is amazing story in my life. Okay, it's not a
perfect bracket. Okay, but there has to be what's right
under quintillion? There's probably one and trillion chances a bazillion.
This is at least one in a bazillion chances. You
know those carnival games where there's bottles and you have
(12:49):
to throw those little red rings on those bottles. It's
very hard, but the little red rings are just the
right size to fit on top of those bottles, right,
And there's usually like basketball, and they usually usually one
like golden bottle. I'm glad you said that, because there
was five hundred bottles. Okay, one gold bottle. I swear
to God this is the truth. And I think it
(13:10):
was six flags, if I'm not mistaken. I six flags.
There's one gold bottle. The rest of them are like brown, right,
and you get those little bucket of red rings. Dude.
I had the little flick, a little flicker, right, dude.
It was like, I swear you so it was like
it was like one of my ancestors and an angel
from above caught it mid flight and placed it perfectly
(13:34):
right on the only golden bottle, like Christopher Lloyd and
angels in the oute. So weird. I couldn't believe my eyes. Dude.
It was like bleak. I was like what dude. Nobody
believed it, and you know what. You know, they advertised
like you can win a TV. They didn't have anything.
They didn't have anything because no one wins that. So
I'm like, wait o, wait, so they advertise like flatscreen
(13:54):
TV or a mountain bike and they're probably here, here's
a tweety bird stuff. They're like, just come in the back,
we'll discuss this get for you. There's only one out
of five hundred the chances of winning. I get Scooby Doode.
Hell no. And it's funny you say that, rich. I
actually got a mountain bike out of it. I wanted
the TV, but they were like, are we gonna give
you a mountain bike? And at the time, I was like,
I could actually use a mountain I was in college. Oh,
(14:16):
I could use a mountain bike. Took the mountain bike
and uh, that's my story. That was due. But that
was a one in a trillion chance when I did
the math, So yeah, I was pretty lucky. It's no bracket, dude,
but it was pretty dope. I mean there's some people
you see that on their DraftKings or FanDuel or whatever.
They'll be like, I'm like one leg away from a
(14:37):
you know, fifteen leg parlay, and that itself is one
of those. But that's a bet I'm saying. In life,
when do you feel like Danny, do you have a
moment where you're like, yeah, it was like my luckiest moment.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
Yeah as a kid, No, I mean I was. I
was like, I got a job that I was trying
really hard for. I was fifteen years old at the time,
and it was an official, legit FM radio station, so
I felt super lucky getting hired after the intern You
know that feeling after an interview where you it's the
(15:09):
hardest night's sleep, you don't know if you're going to
get a call back. I had to bring a work
permit in. I'm thinking, there's the odds are stacked against me.
So by far, I was like the little doogie houser
on the FM radio station staff. So that probably was
like my luckiest moment as a kid.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
And we see these half court shots with all that
pressure for big bucks. You know what was really lucky.
Did you see that Lucas shot warming up? Give me
a backreatt? Yeah, Richard, you see this dude, he's like
in the stands and he just launches it up from
behind the backboard, like by the tunnel. It goes from
(15:45):
behind the backboard, high arc, swish, nothing by the bottom.
Remember when we were kids. It was way crazier than
anything you've seen Steph Curry do before. Larry Bird would
do that in warm ups and I remember seeing that
on like Warner Wolfs. I gotta say, you're as a kid,
you know, when you think about luck in sports, of course,
the immaculate reception comes to mind. But the immaculate reception
(16:07):
for me is when that field goes kicked and it
was a dude that jumped out of the stands with
such precision, perfect and he caught it midair. People don't
you know, People don't realize that was Isaac Lowancross. True
timing involved on that.
Speaker 4 (16:22):
That's crazy that security guards were a little touchy with
me after that.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
I remember being like, wait a minute, but one more
sports one and I have I know Sam, you have one,
and I have a story about Covino that I think
was his luckiest moment. But in sports, do you guys
remember when Paul O'Neill bobbled the ball in right field
and for some reason he's like it and he just
kicked it with his foot and it was like went
(16:48):
in line to the cutoff man. It's on his baseball
reference like throws righty, kicks lefty or whatever. Yeah, it
was unbelievable. But is that legal? It is? Wow, you
can't throw your glove at a ball, can you?
Speaker 5 (16:58):
Though?
Speaker 1 (16:58):
I don't think that right? What if it lands in
the club? Hold on, can you know show me the
Lucas shot? Yeah, watch the shot. Talk about luck. There's
like so much luck in that. I mean, there's obvious skill,
but look how ridiculous in warm ups? Yeah, and then
you would go on to have what that huge first quarter?
Yeahursor yeah, yeah. So my moment that I think Kevino's
forgetting was his luckiest moment. And I don't want to
(17:21):
be vulgar here on Fox Sports Radio, but don't make
me clumpy. Does this involve Patriots cheerleaders? Close your ears?
All right? Better? We were in our twenties. Every every
good story starts with we were at our twenties. Well,
justifies it justifies it. Wait wait, wait, you need one
of these sound effects. It was two thousand and something.
(17:41):
We're at a super Bowl party, and at this super
Bowl party were the New England Patriots cheerleaders and you
can imagine they were smoking hot. They were one of
these girls, you could imagine a model, blonde looking cheerleader,
probably like the hottest one. She's like, hey, you was
like she had like she was like teeriod, like she
(18:03):
was sad. She comes up to Covino and she's like,
you come with me, like me, and she brings Covino
back to her hotel. I remember waiting in the lobby
for two minutes, but apparently her boyfriend had cheated on her,
and she's like, I'm gonna get revenge. Cavino happened to
(18:25):
look like her boyfriend. Yeah. Yeah. The scoop was I
looked I resembled him, so and I remember we reaped
the benefits of this guy being a Peter.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
I guess I got cheated on by Mario Lopez. I yes, yeah, probably,
And I remember being.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Like, did this just happened? Did he just happen to
be a guy that looked like this hot girl? A
lucky night? So yeah, that's got probably. Sometimes luck's on
your side, sometimes not so much, Sam, what's your lucky story?
Speaker 3 (18:52):
So about thirteen months ago, this was a February mid
February of last year, des Bryant on X shared that
he did a third teen leg college basketball parlay and
he won four hundred and seventeen thousand dollars. He had
a thirteen leg parlay. That's crazy and he won. I mean,
to be a retired football player and to win four
(19:12):
hundred and seventeen thousand dollars, that's like a couple paychecks.
Then you're like Okay, that's some good money.
Speaker 1 (19:17):
You know what. The big story in the East Coast
I was growing up. If you grew up in the
New York, New Jersey area, this was a big headline.
I don't know if it made it out here on
the West coast. This is at the height of when
Jennifer Lopez is Jenny from the block, j Lo. Everyone's
at bull j Loo, j Lo as popular as she
is now. The big story was her mother went down
to Atlantic City and Jlo's mom won the million dollar
slot machine or real of fortune. Yeah, and it was like, really,
(19:40):
of all people, Jlo's mom, like, as if she needs it,
but remember that story. Yeah, of course he was like
Jennifer Lopez her mom, of course, of all people. So
your lucky story, feel free to share eight seven seven
ninety nine one fox, but you need to be what
one And I'll say, well till you say it one
last time and then I'll retire it until next year. Guys.
One in nine point two quintillion ridiculously more tricky than
(20:04):
winning the powerball, the Mega millions and getting eaten by
a shark while being struck by a meteor at the
same time. You could happen. You could take the phone
out of anything. Definitely could happen. Hey, guys, you could
do it, though, Remember so you're telling me there's a chance.
If Harry thought there was a chance, Lloyd Lloyd Christmas.
Speaker 3 (20:27):
A guy like you is squirrelgool like me, skirrel goool.
Speaker 1 (20:31):
I was way off, all right, thank you. I was saying,
if you get that perfect bracket, Fox Sports Radio pays
you in IOUs a briefcase, will I use it maybe occasionally?
Speaker 3 (20:40):
Five dollars money? Guys, this sound's as good as money,
I say a ferrari.
Speaker 2 (20:45):
When we first started promoting this, I pictured our boss,
Scott Shapiro sitting down with the lawyer for our network
and saying, kit one million, can we say ten million?
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Say you could say five hundred million. There's not a briefcase.
With a million, you can end up. You can end
up with a mountain. You could say five hundred million dollars.
And Colin Cowhard gives you lapt answers.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
They were like, Howie Managel, briefcases on the on the table.
Speaker 1 (21:07):
I think it's not impossible, but it's the closest thing
to impossible. It's improbable. No, technically, it's not impoastically, it's
not impossible, but this thing you could. But we just
talked about how you could win the power Ball and
get hit by a meteor, and still that's better odds
while getting eaten bread. Here's a question to move on from.
(21:31):
What's more likely to happen in our lifetime? Someone just
miraculously dumb luck gets a perfect bracket ever, or we
see alien aliens aliens no doubt. Do you guys remember
the movie Hot Tub Time Machine where Rob Cordrey bets
something because he's like, I know the fast and it changes,
but he bets something like dirty or sexual? Do you
remember that at the bar when he's playing pool. So hey,
(21:53):
I guess anything could happen. You're right, there's no such
thing as impossible. But one to nine point two quinn,
I'll take my chances. All right, we got more Kavina
on Rich. We're gonna go old school. It's an anniversary
of something. We're gonna talk some Bronni the Angels and
Ron Washington have a weird new rule in the clubhouse,
and I'm curious what you guys think about it. I
have a big take on it all. Next right here,
(22:15):
Fox Sports radio. Tires matter. They're the only part of
your vehicle that touches the road. I say that about
your sneakers all the time. Rich you can't cheap out,

(23:21):
back in the day people used to like call Colin.
Now everybody's all about John Cena, the greatest heal of
all time. I finally watch it. Did anyone else? Just
skim through Monday Night Raw? John seen his first speech
as a bad guy. So good. I'm not even a
big wrestling fan these days, but it was really, really,
really good. So if you need something, Oh yeah, it's great.
(23:42):
Iowa Sam one of the ones, and who's playing some
j low throwing it back to when Jalo's mom won
millions of dollars on a slot machine. My love don't
cost a thing because my mom won all this money,
exact and I have money. The story was like, why
her mom they got enough money? Yeah, well, don't cost
something unless you buy a sick see million dollar house
with Ben Affleck and get divorced a month later. Talking
(24:03):
about crazy luck, you need crazy luck to get a
perfect bracket. Look at Clemson's coming back.
Speaker 3 (24:08):
Oh yeah, they got three minutes to the point game.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Yeah. And by the way, speaking of to come back.
While you were watching John Cena, I was watching a
new Burt Kreischer special and it's called Lucky Lucky Yes
on Netflix. So whatever you're watching, enjoy it, Enjoy your
March madness, dipsy Dude, dunk Guru, and a week from
today we'll all be enjoying some race ball enjoy over
(24:33):
promise right after this show. But let's get to the
phone calls at eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.
Then we'll talk some Ron Washington, Hin nice? What up
Joe in Sacramento? What's up? Joe?
Speaker 6 (24:44):
Hey?
Speaker 5 (24:44):
What's going on? Guys?
Speaker 1 (24:45):
What's our brother?
Speaker 5 (24:46):
I wanted to share a lucky story with you guys
that I experienced back way back in the late nineties,
mid nineties. Okay, twouand and sixth grade, there was a
soda company, I don't know if you guys remember it
called Surge.
Speaker 1 (24:58):
Of course, they were giving.
Speaker 5 (25:01):
Out prizes, you know, under the bottle cap type, saying well,
I found a bottle cap and I looked at it
and there was a code on it. I got the code.
It was for the walkie talkies, So I won two
free walkie talkies. I was stoked. Well, then it got
better because I was I was waiting for him to
come they came. My dad says, let's check out the range.
I started walking down the road. Hey was at the house.
(25:22):
Got about a quarter mile down the road. I found
a twenty dollars bill.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
And that's the luckiest this guys, that we got. Finding
money's great, you know, finding money and laundry that you forgot.
Speaker 3 (25:35):
I found a dollar on a park bench or on
a bus stop bench, and I was like, my lucky day.
Speaker 1 (25:40):
A nickel pocket, nickel my pocket, and I got a
dollar a dollar. Thanks for sharing, We appreciate it. Shout
out to rapid radios too. By the way, speaking of luck,
to wrap it up, it all comes down to who's
lucky enough to win. March manness your bracket. No one's
gonna be perfect. You feel that way about box pools
at the Super Bowl, like you could get crappy numbers.
I always remember this story my dad loves to tell
(26:01):
where he got eight and nine. And this was the
Super Bowl, Danny, where your Raiders ended up beating the
Washington Redskins. Yeah, he's terrible. I remember being a little boy,
I could hardly understand football. He's like, oh, buddy, Dad's
not gonna win. These are the worst numbers. These are
the Weist and the Raiders won thirty eight to nine
(26:22):
and eight and nine are not traditionally good numbers for
a box pool, so sometimes you get lucky. I always
think of this when you go to a stadium. And
speaking of Burke Kisher, see the show All Ties Together.
I saw recently, for the hell of it, he just
bought everyone in his whole section at a ballgame a
bunch of fifty to fifty raffle tickets. Did you see that?
He just bought a ton of them? Do you know
(26:43):
anyone that's ever won the fifty to fifty at a stadium? No?
I kind of feel like it's a scam. Dude. You'll
see You'll be at Dodger Stadium and they'd be like
the fifty to fifty raffles up to ninety thousand dollars.
You know, you get half and they give the other
half to a charity or something. I've never known one
person to be like, you'll guess what I want forty
grand Where I was at the Brewers game and I
(27:04):
won the fifty to fifty.
Speaker 2 (27:05):
Never never met him ever, Like do they have to
publish a winner?
Speaker 1 (27:10):
Ever?
Speaker 2 (27:10):
They don't show a winner up on the scoreboard or
anything at the end of a game.
Speaker 1 (27:13):
Probably is a scam, Danny. So again, we're Kaveno Rich

Maybe I'll spread the wealth. That's cool. You can give
he fill the coins for it. They're silver and black.
Oh no way, really Yeah, some cool stuff at Travis Matthews.
So they got really great stuff. Now, before we get
into old school, when fifty hits, we do it every
Thursday throw back conversation. Today's like a terrible anniversary of sorts,
(28:21):
but we're gonna have some fun with it. We'll explain.
Got to talk about Ron Washington. What is he seventy three?
You know what? I always think about how he looks
like George Jefferson.
Speaker 6 (28:33):
Close.
Speaker 1 (28:34):
I think about how long he's been in the game, right,
what a nice guy is, and what a great coach
he's been. I've always I've only heard good things about it.
Oh but don't you remember when some little kid was
baby Ron Washington for Halloween. I do, but he went viral.
It was like the best. It's like things like a
little baby George Jefferson in a Rangers uniform had like
the horseshoe blacks. I don't know why I always think
(28:58):
of that. It's so funny, man, And I always feel
bad for him because that Rangers team was a strike
away from winning the World Series. They went to a
couple World Series and just couldn't get the job done.
Remember they lost to David Freeze and He's one of
those guys you would like to see win eventually, but
not at the expense of my team. But you know,
Ron Washington's been doing it a long time, you know
who never gets blamed. Not that I want to throw
(29:18):
him under the bus. Someone fill in the blank from me.
I know, Isaac's gonna have it on the tip of
his tongue. Who is the right fielder for the Rangers?
Who if he made a really nice play. It wasn't
an easy play by any means, but right fielder for
the Rangers, any Cavilli you stop? It was in Hamilton, No,
but no, it was a It was not a white player.
It was a guy in right field who missed and
(29:40):
got misplayed it slightly. But it was in Nelson Cruse. Cruise.
Nelson Cruz slightly misplayed a ball a little bit. It
would have been a phenomenal play. But if he makes
that play, the Rangers win the World Series and no one,
no one ever really blames Nelson Cruise rightfully, so would
have been but it would have been a really, really
great catch. Anyway. So Ron Washington seventy three years old,
(30:02):
by the way, so keep in mind that's my dad
is seventy three. Yeah, that's perspective because you know, he's
in great shape, he's been doing he's still doing it.
So a lot of people his age retired. If you're
a guy that's you know, roughly forty, your dad is
Ron Washington's age likely, right. So I bring this up
because I'm torn on it, and a lot of times
I want to come here with an opinion where I'm like, guys,
(30:24):
here's my opinions in you know, it's uh in stone,
but I really don't know. I feel like I want
to talk it out with you guys. Ron Washington has
banned phones in the clubhouse for the Angels. I like, now,
the Angels are a team with terrible luck. Speaking of luck,
the Angels are a team that you remember, like a
(30:45):
couple of years ago is the first time they were
in first place at the same time as the Dodgers. Ever,
with the the Angels are never good. Oh two, the
rally Monkey was like their one moment of glory. Last
time they won was when Danny Glover was the manager. Right,
you're gonna come with us too. What about bullpen phones?
They're taking those out too. So Ron Washington, who I
(31:07):
do love his Vibe saying no phones in the club, phones,
no cell phones, no smartphones. And you got to ask yourself,
a bunch of players in their twenties and thirties, are
they gonna be like yo, f this? And he's put
Mike Trout and some of the team leaders in charge
of how much to find should be And it seems
(31:28):
like there's people behind it. And I'm like, they are
behind it, because if they weren't, then they look like
a bunch of complaining biaches. Or do you think a
bunch of young men want a no phone policy? Now
the theory isn't theory? Not the point. The theory is
Ron Washington wants to force his team to talk to
each other exactly, to bond and communicate. Is this forced?
(31:51):
Do you think it's brilliant? Do you think it's ridiculous?
I don't know the answer. I because every time I
convince myself like, dude, outdated, get right Washington out of here,
this is stupid. I think it's great because even if
it doesn't work, it's not going to come back to
this being the issue. Right. It's either gonna work and
great or it doesn't. And that's not even the reason
you thought people didn't want to go to the Yankees
(32:13):
because official hair. Imagine it's like, yeah, dude, you know
all day when you're in the clubhouse and getting ready,
you can't have your phone. Here's what I think. It's
a great idea. First of all, it's also a storyline
on The White Lotus this season, The White Lotus season three.
The whole premise there is they're in Thailand and they're like,
all right, give us your phone so the families could
bond together. And Jason Isaac's character is a businessman who's
(32:35):
dealing with some issues and he doesn't want to give
up his phone, right, But the whole point is so
that you could bond. That's why you're there. Get to
know each other. Take it back, and I think in
this case, you got to think outside the box. And
that's what Ron Washington's doing here. He's like, look, I
played and lived in an era where this was the
way it was, and we all bonded as a team.
We're better as a result. And if this helps the team, good,
(32:57):
But again, if they stink, it's not going to be
because this so it's a no lose move that he
can get the best I'm saying you could argue that,
you know, this outdated type of thinking would would upset
the young players.
Speaker 3 (33:09):
So I just saw a study someone posted about this,
like in Australia or Swede in some country, they did
all the high schools there you could not have your
phone all day, and they found out that kids were
learning better, they had better social skills. They were like
there was less anxiety from like cyberbullying. Iowa's legislature wants
to do this too, where they're going to ban cell

all lego characters, the soundtracks phenomenal. That's also definitely worth
(37:33):
the watch. It didn't get a lot of hype, but
I loved it. Robby Williams tried to do the same

animated monkeys. Yeah it didn't work. But anyway, before you
go old school, one quick thing. Everyone around the room,
where is McNeice? Does anyone even know? Yeah? We both know.
Did you look at up like today?
Speaker 2 (37:52):

Basically McNeice, who just beat Clemson, the big upset the Cowboys.
Speaker 1 (38:07):
Cow is gonna say the cowboys.
Speaker 2 (38:09):
That explains the Poke shirts because we were like, should
it be like the Crawdads or something like something very Cajun,
you know.

Named after an educator from the early nineteen hundreds McNeese.
So look at that. Well again, we're covin Owenrich everything

(38:37):
What we're gonna do is go back.
Speaker 6 (38:41):

doing the backstroke in a sone. Rich. You were in
Mexico with the sp breakers. Rich was in a booty
shaking contest that yeah, people build on't know the views
in Cabo. We weren't here. And last week was the
anniversary of when Rudy Gobert rupped the microphones remember that.
Of course we were working at ESPN at the time. Like,
(39:13):
what is going on? Yeah he started COVID. Yeah yeah, Like, man,
he's not taking this serious. This is a bad look.
I remember sitting in the newsroom when we worked up there,
and it was the day last week when we all
got work. Wait, Tom Hanks has COVID. Yeah, wait, this
is getting serious now, Tom Hanks. Well, this week, Danny g.
(39:35):
You said one of your greatest memories was hearing the
news right about when COVID started. Yeah, it was announced
that Tom Brady officially agrees to move on to Tampa
Bay for a two year deal fifty million guaranteed. Yeah,
because we were like, is there even going to be
an NFL season? Yeah? So you know, we started hearing
all these different random things and could we go back
(39:57):
to work. We were washing our hand, singing Happy Birthday,
so we wanted. It wasn't a fun time. It really wasn't.
But as we look back five years ago this week
when that happened, what are some of your random memories
during COVID could be sports related, doesn't have to be.
It could be sports, It could be just those random
(40:18):
things you remember, like going to the supermarket and they
would only let certain people in at a time. I
remember they would let old ladies in early in the morning. Yeah,
senior citizen, am. But if you got some random memories
five years ago this week, we're talking the anniversary of coronavirus,
and I bring it up because today is the day
(40:41):
five years ago Tiger King was released on Netflix. So
we met Joe Exotic on this day five years ago today,
So leave that, we'll reminisce a little bit five years
ago your odd, weird memories from the early days of COVID.
Oh you know you could do too. Look at your
phone and search March twenty twenty, see where you were
on this day. It's wild, it's weird. We'll reminisce a
(41:02):
little bit. And of course that Ron Washington story, we'll
