May the fourth be with you in a couple of days.
That's right, the Star Wars trilogy. If you were gonna
watch them all, would you start with the old ones first?
Or the new ones first?
Speaker 1 (00:49):
How about none of them?
Speaker 2 (00:50):
No, I'm kidding, I would say the ones from the
seventies and eighties, right, Well, because my kid was asking me, right,
I'm like, oh yeah, that's interesting because you could probably
watch the newer ones, the weaker.

lot to get through today. Belichicker Caveno one of our
new favorite games. We're gonna play that. You know, it's
a great game. But the more that comes out about
Belichick and the creepyer he sounds, the more I'm resenting it.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
I'm like, wait a second, you just like him.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
I'm nothing like this guy, so Belichick or Cavino, Phil
Simms and lt here in the news. And it's not
the eighties and we're not in New York. So we'll
talk some NFL. Do we need to accommodate gen z
hell no? Not that girl that you hooked up with
in college generation z oh, generation z no. So we'll
talk about that. There's a Shador Sanders story. But before
(02:21):
we get going, before we get cracking on today's show,
two random dumb thoughts I had.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
What would our show be without my dumb thoughts? I
ad a random story? Please do buddy? All right?
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Cool, I got a dumb story to tell. Question number one.
It doesn't need to be a long discussion. In fact,
it could be one second. As we welcome Danny G
to the studio, super producing. Yo.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Yoh, our buddy Prefet running the board, say what's up? Prefet?
Are you aggravated today? You're happy? Lost? So I'm not
exactly I told you found that you had to work
with VJ. Husky this weekend. Saw some clips on social
well hold on, I.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Prefer really not to speak.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
If I speak, I am in big.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Trouble, so Dan Byer, of course the legend on the updates.
Let me go round the room. My wife and I
taking the kids out for ice cream the other night,
and the question is where do you go? I said,
all right, kids, we're going to Coldstone Creamery and my
wife said, now, Basketing Robins.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
And I'm like, are you nuts?
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Would anyone in this room choose basket Robins over Coldstone Creamery?
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Yeah, thirty one flavors, Let's go. It's simple.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Don't worry Creamery. They mix it all up, and that's
what I want to avoid. Sometimes I want to be
eat and out, like, hey, let's get out of here.
You get your cotton candy ice cream because kids always
love cotton candy ice cream. I'll get my chocolate chip
or cookie doing bounce. I don't need the whole song
and dance all the time. Every once in a while,
it's nice, like if you don't get ice cream all
that often, or it's a special event, or the kid
(03:54):
just performed that in assembly, or he won a game
and you want to get him something extra.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
I think call Stone Creamy is a little extra. I
don't know. I kind of like it. I don't love
it or gotta have it. Dann Bye, I feel like
you're gonna be team Rich on this Coldstone.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
This is I'm sorry, I can't just give you a
one word answer. I feel that there are almost two
different entities, whereas Coldstone is like a five guys and
Baskin Robbins is McDonald's. So there is a bit of
an upper tier of burger. But it also just kind
of what Cavino is saying, there's a difference means to
the occasion of what yeah, like, yeah, it depends, But
(04:31):
if you're choosing one, I think Coldstone, like quality wise,
has got to be better.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Yeah, Danny g what do you think Coldstone? But I
have left Coldstone before and felt very fat. You gotta
have it, you gotta love it, like it, gotta have it.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
It's too rich.
Speaker 5 (04:46):
So the smallest serving Coldstone will offer you, that's what
I would take. I would say, like for a weekly thing,
if you went once a week, it would be Baskin Robins.
Speaker 6 (04:55):
You know.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
I also like to share though, the fact that when
I was a kid, Baskin Robbins was the big deal.
So I like to share that with my kids. Hey,
when Aunt Sharon took dad, the Baskin Robbins. That meant something.
So here you go, let's share this experience together. They
had thirty one flavors back then.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
That was a lot.
Speaker 5 (05:15):
Not grow up with the frozen yogurt boom on the east. Yeah,
well that's our choice these days. Remember back of the day.
For a minute in the two thousands, pink Berry was over.
They oh yeah, there's still some location, Frozen Yogurt Land
and all this stuff.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Perfet What was the Wasn't there like a Dippin' Dots place?
Or am I tripping? You mean the ice cream in
the future.
Speaker 6 (05:34):
Yeah, I loved Well, first off, I love Dippin' Dots,
But like, why don't we have Ben and Jerry's in
here as an option?
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Well, Ben and Jerry's great, there's one right across the
street from the Fox Sports radio studio.
Speaker 6 (05:44):
But yeah, it's the same thing you get in the
tub at the store, like you can get fish food
in a waffle cone.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
I'll tell you why it's not an option because Rich
started the story saying I'm going to Coldstone and his
wife said, we're not going to Baskin Robbins, Right, that's right,
I mean the wife then didn't jump in and say
why aren't we going to Menchies?
Speaker 2 (06:03):
So tell you if I was on the East Coast,
damn Byer, I would say what about Carvel or mister
SIFTI I'm saying. I said, it was like seven o'clock,
our kids bedtime soon, but dad wants ice cream.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Everyone hop in the car, and I was assuming Coltstone.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Would be like, yay, right, So if you have thoughts,
we're not asking for dairy queen, right, it's one of
the other.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
It's one of the other. Scovell even do anything besides
Fudgie the Whale.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Fudgie the Whale is great, Cookie Puss and the flying Saucers,
And yeah, I love Carville, Tom Carvell's legend on the
East Coast.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
But Rich, I think that.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
If you want simple, you want in and out, you
go basking Robbins if it's a special occasion, and again
you want to impress the kids. It's almost like the
hibachi the teppanyaki of ice cream for making it in
front of you. It's a big deal in line too, though.
It's always busy at Corystone and it's supposed to be
an experience, meaning if you remember when you at Coldstone,
(07:01):
they were supposed to sing for it and ring a
bell or something. Yeah, it was supposed to be like
a whole extravaganza. So if you go there for that fun,
I get it. However, I will say this, they're both
really expensive. You think one's more expensive than the other, Dude,
they're both pretty fat. Coldstone's a little more expensive. And
I say this in a disgusted manner. For ice cream
(07:24):
servings two adults, two kids, cups forty bucks at Coldstone Creamer, Yes,
but it's so good.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
A right? That was question one?
Speaker 7 (07:31):
You know?
Speaker 2 (07:31):
Can I answer your question? Yes, what dad wants takes
a back seat to what WiFi and the kids want.
If you could do both, and why not if you
have time, but they take precedent. So there's your answer
if you want to know the answer, if you really
give a crap, which you probably don't. We went to
both because I'm like, well, I'm gonna get Coldstone. If
you dopes want bask and Robbins, I'll stop it both.
But I'm not giving up that cake batter ice cream
(07:54):
at Coldstone.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
It's so creamy and good. I get it. If you're
gonna pick at you want what you want.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Yeah, it's almost like there are times by kids like
I want McDonald's. I'm like, dad doesn't want that crap.
I want Chipotle, So you go to both. Okay, question one?
Speaker 1 (08:04):
Question two?
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Have you ever bought the jersey or apparel of a cool,
funny minor league baseball team? Like I know, for a minute,
what was the the modesto nuts about nuts on it? Yeah,
for a long time, I wanted that one. I used
to rock the Greensborough Bats a lot because they were
a Yankees minor league affiliate and I had gone to
(08:26):
the stadium when I was a kid.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
That's cool.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Yeah, No, you know what, if you need options, I
think there are a lot of fun options in fun hats.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
Why do you got one?
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Because I remember at one point, remember when Robinson Cano
played for those like the SpongeBob team for a minute, Yeah,
they had those uniforms.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
There's a new minor league team. They're doing a weekend.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
Special event, the more Head Morehead City Marlins. Already I'm
in tell me more. The Morehead City Marlins that play
in the Coastal League in Florida for the weekend are
changing their name. They are the Morehead City Booty Divers. Oh,
I gotta get one, and k Hernandez has to get
(09:04):
one too, because he was caught wearing a hat that
said it, but it had nothing to do with base Yeah,
but the Booty Divers, meaning it looks like a pirate
diving for booty best.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
I mean, if you could get a Booty Divers jersey,
that's fun.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Yeah, that's fun and funny, except for when you're picking
your kids up at school. Then it may seem inappropriate
because that happens once in a while. I know you
got a little story about that, and I've done that too.
You're wearing something dumb because your friends gave it to you,
or it's like a gag gift and you have fell
sleep in it.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
You show up at the school and you don't realize
you're wearing it. You're like, oh, you like this. This
is the Crystal Coast Booty Divers. I do like that.
That's so cool, right, I'd get a T shirt. I
would get that. I have two. I think it's it's
all fair game with minor league stuff. I really do.
Because I'm a Yankees fan. I don't wear other teams.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
There's other hosts here that should rename remain nameless, even
though we already mentioned them.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Who wears all different hats. I'm like, dude, choose.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
One, pick one, because you're a sports guy when it
comes to minor league stuff, I think, yeah, rock, whatever
one you want.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
I have two.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Embarrassing stories about wearing things and not realizing it. So
I told the story back in the day. It's embarrassing.
I can't believe I'm even saying alluding to this on
Fox Sports Radio. But when I was a pre teen teenager,
I've told the story. Like a lot of young dumb boys,
Let's just say you've done things to the cushions of
your couch. Let's just say when people say you love
(10:27):
it at Levitt's, Rich really.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Loved it at Levitt'zez, I.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Say, I was an amped up thirteen year old when
Rich went to Ashley Furniture. He was pretending it was
Ashley for real. Let's just say when my parts are
at our childhood couch, I cried. Now, So I jokingly
told the guys this story, thinking what was I thinking?
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Who knows? So one of our listeners made me a
shirt that says Rich took the love seat.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Literally, it said hetero sectional and it was a couch
with an opening, and I wore it to the gym
and someone was like, what's with the shirt.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
I'm like, oh, I didn't realize what shirt I was wearing.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Point is, you can't wear a booty diver's shirt to
school assembly or to pick them up. Do you mean,
like my wife are on the holidays or even to
the gym because you might see like one of the
parents that you know there and you feel embarrassed. My
wife was My wife is not like some dirty minded person.
I bought her a novelty shirt because I saw it
on sale, like H and M or something. It was
(11:27):
a red sweater around the holidays, and then sparkles it
said tinsel. I'll just say it starts with a tea
tinsel tinsel time.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
And she's like, oh my god, you're so dumb.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
She was scrambled to get the kids ready for school
one morning, threw it on and we're doing kid drop
off and I'm like, babe, do you know what you're wearing.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
She's like, oh my god, that's my only warning with
the new hair.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
But I think hats our fair game if you want
to mix it up a little bit, because you got
to find some new hats every once in a while
while to match your kicks.
Speaker 6 (12:01):
I mean, this is kind of cheating because of my hometown,
but I had I had plenty of mud Hen's stuff
growing up. But there was one night, and I think
it was when the Tigers sent down Jose Valverde or
actually I think Justin Verlander might have been down there,
because they did a lot of promotional nights and I
think they had like, Okay, one time it was a
hot dog night and I really wanted a hot dog
jersey the hot dogs.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (12:21):
The other I think when Verlander was like rehabbing in Toledo,
they had a Jurassic Park night involving one of those
like inflatable t rexes waddling up to the mound to
hand him the ball.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
That's funny. See, I love those. I would like that
I was gonna buy.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
We went recently to the Mets a's game in Sacramento
and they play at the Sacramento river Cats Stadium, and
they had the river Cats gear there and I was
thinking about it. I could buy one to get away with.
It doesn't matter, no doubt. So anyway, Rich, great question.
Any other final thoughts before we move on. I was
the you know, domb Minor League teams in ice cream.
(12:56):
I'm done well speaking of to You know what I
did last night. I don't know if you notice, but
check out my gleaming chicklets. Check out these pearly whites
that I got going on. They're extra sensitive today.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
You know what I was doing? You look like Matt
Dillon and something about Mary. Well.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
See, I use my whitening strips on my actual teeth.
Rich uses them in places that we can't even see.
You're not supposed to put them on your you know, yeah,
but Rich uses them in all these weird places. I
was putting them on my teeth right every single only
got my teeth cleaned. So I was like, you know what,
I'm mean to use those whitening strips, but you're supposed
to keep them on for like forty five minutes. You
forgot that, dude. I passed out last night. I woke
(13:35):
up at like five in the morning and I still
had them on. And now my teeth are like so sensitive.
When I breathe in, I could feel it hurt your
gum my gums and my Tonight I drink anything, my
teeth like tonight when I'm reading my son a bedtime story,
can you just stand above us? Yeah, and I mean
my teeth are you know, fluorescent white right now? But guys,
(13:57):
just the warning. And of course I had a forty
five minute set. Must have slept right through it or
shut it off.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
I woke up.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
I must have had it on for like six plus hours, dude,
and my teeth are listening though hurting. I mean, yeah,
these chompers are listening. But thank you for listening. So
that's just my stupid story. Don't let it happen to you.
And let's get into it. Man, buddy, we're gonna play
Belichick or Cavino coming up. Let's dive into it like
the booty Divers, the booty Divers of the Coastal League.
(14:26):
Here's my question. I want to start with something that
this part of the story is not new news. Lawrence
Taylor as we know legends. I mean, in our childhood,
he's the real LT. I mean, not only was he
epic in real life, I mean the guy could block
extra points in Tech Mobile. By the way, dB Danny
(14:47):
g Prefet, that was one of the coming of age
stories in our life when we started to notice that
younger generations thought LT meant Ladanian Tomlinson like, hold on,
it does not, but to them it did. I remember
when Ladanian Tomlinson went to the Jets. We were working
at SNY in New York. We were asking people on
the streets, Yeah, who's LT. And we did like a
(15:09):
man on the street thing based on age.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
It was generational. People were saying Ladanian and other people
were saying, of course Lawrence Taylor.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
And I believe he was on the cover of Madden
and Everything at one point, right, So yeah, the younger
kids jumped on that so hard. LT to them is
Ladanian Tomlinson. Well, we're talking about Lawrence Taylor. We're talking
about dangle earring Lawrence Taylor, who did more cocaine in
the eighties. Him or Keith Hernandez. It's a great New
York question. Definitely Hernandez. Allegedly we're talking number fifty six LT.
(15:39):
Now we know the story of Abdull Carter. Very excited
giants fan bas this guy's going to make a difference
in New York, New Jersey.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
When asked, is it.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Cool if Abdull Carter wears your number fifty six? Lawrence
Taylor was pretty much like, yeah, kick Rock's kid, get
your own legacy, get your own number. And I actually
liked his comment. Wasn't it something about create your own path?
He wasn't rude about it, but it was pretty much
like fifty six. And in fact, it's insulting to his honor.
(16:11):
I think Abdul Carter, Hey, I wish him all the best,
but I think that's a disrespectful request. Why do you
think they retire numbers in the first place, not so
some young GIBBRONI can come out.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
And take it.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
You know, do you know we know what this happens
at school with your kids or you know, maybe with neighbors.
You know, when someone ask you something so ballsy that
you're almost taking aback like I guess. So, Yeah, I'm
glad Lawrence Taylor didn't react, like the hell could I get?
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Guess?
Speaker 5 (16:39):
You know this?
Speaker 2 (16:40):
You know the honor that I earned? Yeah, you're trying
to take it away? How about you beat it? He
could have been, in my opinion, should have been a
little more rude about it. He said, hey, listen, youngster,
create your own path, gets your own number. I don't
like it, you know, from the get go, and I
wish nothing but the best to Abdul Carter. I think
he overstepped here. I think someone should have told him, like, no,
(17:00):
that's Lawrence Taylor. He's a legend. What do you have
in your mind? But then again, I heard Jonas, our
coworker on two pros and a cup of Joe, said,
is there.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Any harmon asking? Yes?
Speaker 2 (17:11):
Okay, you know it actually is a good point, but
you'd be surprised as to what you'd get when you
ask that. There's true to that, for sure, but you're
asking almost them almost to take back an honor. It's like,
I just don't I don't think that's fair at all
to Lawrence Taylor, or to the organization or anybody.
Speaker 5 (17:31):
And Taylor added, he said, I'm hoping that he's not thinking,
oh I just got shot down by LT. No, it's
not like that, man, It's hey, I'm with you. I mean,
I'm the guy that that I am, and it's going
to take two of the two of us here. I'm
going to be two steps behind you and make sure
you don't fall. Yeah, so saying he's going to be
a supportive, but just make your own mark with your
(17:53):
own number.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Dude, even in high school. I didn't.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
I took my jersey when I left. The team wasn't retired, obviously,
but I'm like, I don't want no one taking my jersey,
my jersey beat it's okay, kidding, Yeah, no, I'm serious.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
Stole my jersey.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
And you know because in high school, remember back in
the day, they just recycled him for the next like five.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
If you took your jersey, there would be no other
than number sixteen. Yeah, exactly, Hey where's the men's large sixteen?
And I was like, who's gonna stop me? I don't
want someone else wearing this. I was the og original
Ocho Sinco.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
People don't realize that in the Union Little League, in
a new Jersey, no one could wear Cavino's twenty three.
Uh I'm sorry, how many twenty seven Littleague home run jersey?
Speaker 1 (18:30):
That's right? No one can we have that one my
all star jersey.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
My point is you're very territorial about your number, especially
when you're a legendary guy whose number was retired.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
They held a ceremony for you. You're a legend in
that city.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
For some I don't want to say he'son nobody, but
he hasn't done anything yet in New York to ask
for that member, it's a boldery ian. Listen, one comes
to mind for me, and I'm sure you know Dan
Bayer is a man of sports knowledge and history. Can
you think of a guy that changed teams and had
to pivot other than Joe Montana because Montana went to
the Chiefs. I believe Len Dawson was number sixteen and
(19:04):
then Montana rock number nineteen. He didn't say, hey, can
you retire sixteen?
Speaker 1 (19:09):
And that's Joe Montana.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Have there been other guys that you could think of
that had a like pivot, like guys who went to
the Yankees.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
A Rod number three was like, I can't be babe, Ruth,
I'll be thirteen.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
I'll answer your question by not answering your question. Remember
the old Pro Bowl when we would you would have
guys of the same jersey number that would go to
the Pro Bowl. In the you'd have to change numbers
at that time. If there were two twenty nine's on
the field, you know, sorry, Eric Dickerson, you may not
have tenure over that person, and you may have to
(19:39):
so in those games, they would make them change. I
do remember Peyton Manning did not have to pivot, the
Broncos retired Frank Trapuka's number eighteen. So when Manning went
from Indianapolis to Denver, they asked and he allowed him
to wear eighteen. In fact, used it as as a
way to hey, if you come here, you can have eighteen.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
If you signed Broncos, there you go.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
So so there have been a couple times it goes
both ways. But here's the update on this story, because
that part of the story is not necessarily new. Abdul Carter,
if you put your thinking cap on, just google image
him at Penn State. He wore number eleven. I grew
up in the eighties in New York. They are a
heck a lot of eleven jerseys because it was that
(20:21):
blonde haired stud who gave can you know, a stink
palm handshake one time? Oh bro, you're gonna bring that up.
Let's preface by saying Phil Simms is a New York
legend and a hell of a broadcaster, and what a
fella nice guy. Actually, it was nothing but kind and
generous to us the times we've met. And I'm not
saying anything you brought it up. I just said, I
(20:43):
want to preface your story. Phil Sims number eleven. Has
said it would be an honor Abdul Carter for you
to wear my number eleven for the New York Giants.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
I got you. So it's the other side of things. Now,
Phil Sims saying I would love this. I don't have
a problem with that.
Speaker 7 (21:02):
Now.
Speaker 4 (21:02):
Eleven is a story number at Penn State. Yep, it's
LaVar Arrington. You just mentioned two pros. There's the long
list of guys who have worn eleven, just like eighty
eight is with the Dallas Cowboys. When you wear eighty eight,
like Drew Pearson, like Michael Irvin, like Does Bryant, like
Ceedee Lamb, there's something do it. Some guys don't rock
like that. For Phil Simms to be like, Okay, that's cool.
(21:24):
I think that's cool of Phil Simms. But it's not
like eleven is Abdul Carter's number. That's Penn State All
American linebacker.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
It's like Syracuse number forty four fours is a big deal.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Yes, absolutely so I see it.
Speaker 4 (21:37):
I don't think that's a little weird.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Even though Phil Simms is definitely a legendary guy in
New York for the Giants, he's not Lawrence Taylor but
that's not even my point. My point is if he
feels one way, and he feels okay giving up that
number eleven, like Dan Byer said, Hey man, that's really cool.
It's really nice of him. But that doesn't mean that
Lawrence Taylor is in the wrong for not wanting to No,
(22:00):
of course, it's like a total preference thing. Lawrence Taylor's like, nah, man,
that's my number. No way, make your own path. If
Phil Simms wants to do that, that's on him, and
I'm all for it. I'm surprised, though, I'm surprised to
hear it. Well, you know, I don't think there should
be any pressure for these retired guys to give up
their number. We're gonna go over all your feedback if
you want to chime in, Hey, Most Interactive show on
(22:20):
Fox Sports Radio eight seven to seven, nine to nine
on Fox at Covin on Rich will get to you
guys next. And then a really interesting thought about accommodating
different generations, and it has to do with some of
these young dudes coming out of the draft that are
twenty twenty one years old.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
They want your number, they want everything.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
But is it our job to accommodate a different generation.
You can't assume everyone just has to adjust to you.
So a Shador Sanders story that will break down next
right here on.
Speaker 1 (22:50):

Speaker 2 (24:19):
I get it, it's an eighties classic, but I think
of Robbie Hart's version The Second Babe.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
I'd have to look at that version the Wedding Singer
the Second.
Speaker 6 (24:30):
I hear this, Yeah, that's Wedding Singers underrated for Adam Sands.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Oh it's great, you know, Profet, I would argue, might
be Adam Samuel's best movie. Uh, I think that's for me.
That's Uncut Gems. I know it was recent, but I
loved ONCT on cut Jobs.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
On cut Jobs two different vibes, though very different, is
the most frantic movie I think I've ever seen. But
from hearted Robbie Hart in the wedding singer Fantastic, We're
Cavino and reg profets in for Sam. We got the
NYG super producer and getting our games ready. We're giving
away prizes on this Friday. We always have fun on Fridays,
casual Walt Friday, but in action packed Friday. I get
(25:07):
some big fights tonight. You got some NBA. We got
Belichick or Cavino, which, like I said, I'm sort of
resenting and regretting right now because I feel like he's
getting more weird as.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Time goes on, as the story progresses, his game is
getting funnier to me? Is it him or me?
Speaker 2 (25:23):
If you could answer too right out of five questions,
you win a swiggy, So stick around for that plus
every Friday and week so get into weekend hobnobbing what
you need to watch in the world of sports and entertainment.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
But right now your phone calls at eight seven seven
ninety nine, O Fox.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
Let's go to you guys, everything from minor league jerseys
to my deep thought about Coldstone versus Baskin Deep Are
you joking me? Abdul Carter asking for jersey numbers?
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Let's go to Drew in Vegas. What's up, buddy boy?
How you doing? What's up? Man?
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Hey?
Speaker 8 (25:55):
I just want to give you a heads up. You
had mentioned the more At City Marlins.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (25:59):
Yeah, that's not Florida. That's actually North Carolina. I was
born in Moriton City. I just want to give a
shout out home, Yo.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Shout out to you. I thought it was for some reason,
I thought it was Florida. But you know what, You're
staying corrected, So I stay corrected. But I'm still going
to get the booty Divers jersey. Yeah, hey, thanks, you
appreciate it, Hey, Drew.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
She was like, the Booty Divers are from North Carolina, right,
Dustin and Virginia. What's up Dustin.
Speaker 8 (26:23):
Bask and Robin versus Colstone. It's it's like to the
point of, you know, a different occasion l Roday overs
the Taco bell. I'm with it, depending on the situation,
if you need to be in and out or not.
And and the retiring jerseys. I mean, if you had
a zero and a double zero, you only got one
hundred and one. Eventually, with position based numbers, we're gonna
run out right.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Look at the Yankees. I know I had give Camino
crap all the time because I'm a Mets guy. He's
a Yankees guy.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
But you know, Yankee. I see Yankees run like number
eighty two, like they're wide receivers. What are we doing?
Like eventually you might need to say.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
And reset, you know, like as Waldo Cabrara wearing number
ninety five just ninety nineteen alignment or a or an infielder,
those numbers and positions. Yeah, we have to think of
them differently. Now, Yeah, ninety nine is a baseball number.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
Why is zero a number for a jersey? It's a
good ques. I'm still trying to figure that out. Why zero.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
I had a buddy in high school who thought it
was cool. He wanted to be nine, so he would
he would specially order the nine. People like people have
that preferences.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
It's pretty amazing. In basketball, our jerseys were it was
either ten through fifteen, twenty through fifteen, or twenty five,
thirty through thirty five, then ever went past six. We
didn't have single digit jerseys. It was just and to
Coveno's point in wanting his number, the smaller you were,
the smaller number that you got, like what it used
(27:47):
to be. If you were fifty four. You were probably
six four and you know, two hundred and fifty pounds.
You were the husky kid in the little league. You
were number fourteen. If your teens were husky from J. C.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Penny.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
Yes, yeah, because the littler kid wore number one, and
exactly that's usually how it went right. It's funny would
say that because I as you know, as if I
don't mention it once a show. You know, the number
one coach here on Fox Sports Radio, Rich Davis. So
I've heard, Yeah, I coach five and under t ball,
little kids, pony ball, all their jerseys, like Dan Bayer said,
(28:18):
I got the little jerseys. And if there's a big
kid on my team, I had a call the next
league up. That's also the Rockies. It'd be like, hey,
you got a bigger Rockies jersey because one of my
one of my kids is husky. And then you'll get
a call from someone from a higher league like we got.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
A little guy.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
Do you have a kid d uniform? You're right, So
that is how it is. And by the way, if
you just joined us and you don't know the story.
Abdul Carter now with giant War number eleven in college.
But he asked Lawrence Taylor, Hey, can I whar you're
retired number fifty six? You know that honor bestowed upon you.
Can I reverse the honor? And where your number? Because
a lot of years have passed, I get it to him.
(28:56):
He's like, yeah, Lawrence Taylor, I guess it's okay to ask. Like, yeah,
I agree with Jonahs like, there's no harm in asking,
but that's a bold ask. And Lawrence Taylor said beat
it in a nice way to kindly. And then phil
Simms said, hey, you were number eleven in college. You
can wear my number eleven, which, by the way, is
an odd gesture to me, to be honest. There was like,
(29:17):
way too kind It's like take my wife sleep with it. Yeah,
he was like, way too willing.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
You guys are are way more lenient than I am,
because I'm gonna sound like, get off my lawn, guy.
But I do think it's too much to ask. You
don't understand the history. You don't understand who Lawrence Taylor's
And that's fine. It wasn't this generation, he wasn't born.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
It does sound tone deaf to us.
Speaker 4 (29:36):
I agree, yes, But there's also the fact of I
think it's disrespectful to Michael Strahan, Justin tuck, Ocu Manora,
other great Giants players who didn't ask for Lawrence Taylor's
fifty six or kept their own numbers. So for Abdul
Carter to think like I'm next, and it's like, hold up,
super Bowl forty two and Super Bowl forty six were
(29:58):
one because of their defensive lines and for what they did.
And so I think I think that there's nothing that
he intended to hurt anyone's feelings by it. I just
think that you're not understanding history in doing so.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Maybe this leads to Rich's other thought, Abdul Carter wish
him nothing but the best, right.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
I think he overstepped a little bit.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
But maybe these younger kids, these weenials, are just wired
with this sense of entitlement. It's not like, yeah, I
hate that word too, justarely used that word. But maybe
it's just something in them and in their generation where
they don't really care. The word entitlement does rub me
the wrong way because I don't think that's necessarily it.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
We'll get to that next.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
I want to say, why is it that all these
younger generations expect to be you know, head of the
company before they did anything. Think about it because we're
going to dive into it next. Let's say had a
Raffi real quick that we will go to Dan Baier
for enough day Raffi and Idaho Wrap this up?
Speaker 1 (30:51):
Man, what's up?
Speaker 8 (30:52):
Fellas Hey, you're talking about the misunderstanding generationally about the
LT initials.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (30:58):
My uncle was always quick to remind me.
Speaker 8 (31:00):
An ice Cube song when he says freaking brothers everywhere
like mj that I wasn't corrected.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
It was Michael Jordan, but Magic Johnson. And you know what,
Dan byer bro went up during the commercial. I agree.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
When I hear people talking about AI like artificial intelligence,
I still think Allen Iverson when I hear someone say,
well ai', I'm.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
Like Ellen Iverson. Oh no, no, AI, okay AI is
taking over.
Speaker 6 (31:23):
AI take it over for your store fighting that's a
d or ap because some people insist, no, no, it's
his initials, Adrian Peterson.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
Do you use Anthony Davis?
Speaker 2 (31:32):
No, no, no, no. People don't realize Dan Byer not.
He's a robot and he's giving your update right now.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
AI.
Speaker 4 (31:38):
Dan Byer Greg Popovich will no longer be head coach
off to San Antonio Spurs. Well, all robots, remember we
thought back of that. No, that's how robots sound, dude.
That's that's it. Greg Popovitch stepping down his head coach
of the Spurs. He's going to move into a full
time role oft seem president within the organization INTERIMID coach
(31:59):
Mitch Johns and will become the team's full time head
coach for Popovitch. He's seventy six years old, spend twenty
nine years as head coach, has the most career wins
of any coach in NBA history, five NBA titles as well.
Greg Popovich calling it quits coaching but now team president
of the San Antonio Spurs.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
That's a cool pivot for him, and the team treated
him the right way, and coach pop around the league
is such a respected guy, So I like this.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Move a lot.
Speaker 4 (32:23):
Yeah. Twama Siecilo is going to be the full time
head coach of the Memphis Grizzlies. He solo took over
for the Fire and Taylor Jenkins with nine games left
in the regular season for Memphis. The forty two year
old now gets the full time gig Rockets and Warriors
tonight game six nine o'clock Eastern Time, Warriors up three
to two in the series. Lakers forward Lebron James has
a Grade two MCL spring in his left knee. That's
(32:44):
according to ESPN, suffered it late in that loss to
the Timberwolves on Wednesday. He's going to need about three
to five weeks to recover. Yankee skipper Aaron Boone says
an oblique injury could sideline in fielder Jastism Junior for
four to six weeks, placed on the ten day injured list. Today,
Dallas Cowboys and first round pickguard Tyler Booker to a
four year deal. We're twenty two and a half million
(33:04):
dollars and they're back playing golf on the PGA Tour
the CJ Cup Byron Nelson. Rain delayed play for much
of the afternoon storms in the Dallas area, but Scotti
Scheffler leads at fourteen hunder par. He is through eleven
holes on his second round.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
Guys, back to you, thank dank you.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
My friend d be with the update now coming up
based on the Abdul Carter story, based on Shador Sanders
as a story, We're going to get to I want
to talk about how do we handle different generations. Listen,
if you're around right, your parents are boomers, you're probably
Gen X, are a millennial, and this younger Gen Z
(33:43):
everything from lingo to as you said, entitlement to how
people expect to be handled, but that they think exemplifies
what we're talking about. You don't think it's strange that
a kid coming out of college thinks he deserves a
legend's number that was retired. But someone younger, that is
some mindset. Younger might tell you, well, what's the hormone asking?
(34:04):
It's the harmon asking. He's like, this guy proved he
had a whole career to earn that honor. You haven't
played a down in the NFL and you want it, Well,
that's odd to me. There's a Shador Sanders story we're
gonna get to and again this is not dumping on
Generation Z, but there are differences and they're interesting ways
how to handle and navigate this, and we'll get to
(34:25):
it next right here on Fox Sports Radio. Ay Friday,
it's my favorite day, and I hope you had a
great Thursday. Brunston sort of Thursday, New York Knicks, the
Knickerbocker's sort of Thursday, You're killing me Clippers sort of Thursday,
(34:49):
and some good games tonight. Man, we'll talk about it
weekend hobnobbing. What you need to watch this weekend? We
do it every Friday. You know that song reminds me.
It reminds me that ay, there's not enough pan flute
in pop music and too speak for yoursel Have you
had Zombfier's greatest hits? And my goodness Shakira's hot Huh wow, bro,
good observation.
Speaker 5 (35:09):
Crush.
Speaker 1 (35:09):
That was absolutely my high school crush.
Speaker 7 (35:11):
Me.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
That's a good crush to have for fet. Right now,
it's time for our tire rack. Play of the day.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
After missing a close range shot towards the end of
the game of Game six the Knicks, Jalen Brunson made
his biggest.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
Three of the season.
Speaker 7 (35:25):
Please know, backing down a sorry top of thatt the
logo plenty of time left. We're tied at one thirteen
here in game six, Brunson between the legs Bilbol gets
rid of Thompson, walk up reporter.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
He got it.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
The Klutch player of the Year will not beat to night.
Speaker 7 (35:41):
Shalen Brunson was four point three, puts the list in
front one sixteen O one thirteen.
Speaker 1 (35:46):
I'm sorry, profet Pistons fan.
Speaker 2 (35:49):
That was New York Knicks obviously eliminating the Pistons four
games to two.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
That's our Tirack play of the day.
Speaker 2 (35:55):
And you know when Brunson hit that and holds up
the three fingers, so cool looking up that was though.
That was a cool moment unless you're a Pistons fan.

(36:17):
Rich Danyg's on the phones at eight seven seven ninety
nine on Fox Quick Reminder because it's a big fight night. Yep,
we do a whole fight preview on over Promised our
bonus podcast. The links in our Instagram story on our
X page at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio
over promises our bonus show. You can watch it on
Fox Sports Radios YouTube page or listen. We give you
(36:39):
a good NBA breakdown, but hyping you up for the
fights this weekend, and I'll talk about it again in
weekend hobknobbing.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
But right now we gotta talk about well, like we
always talk about jen Z what a bunch of wienies.
Well see, it's very easy. It's very easy for every
generation too.
Speaker 2 (36:56):
No, it's very easy for every generation to make fun
of the younger jen generation, the greatest generation. Our grandparents
made fun of our boomer parents who were hippies, and
then they make fun of us, and then we make
fun of.
Speaker 1 (37:07):
The younger generation. It's cyclical. Your music stinks, ours is better.
You don't know, you don't get it, mom and dad.
Like this has gone on for the history of life.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
But there is something to be said about this younger
generation where I argue sometimes maybe they got it right.
There is a big emphasis on work life balance. There's
a big emphasis on mental health, and you know, work
isn't life. You know, you got to live it up.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
Or you could say that's just being lazy and doing
the bare minimum.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
No guy is in to get ahead putting his backpack
on because the five o'clock whistle rank It's like, yeah,
but you're not really done with your work.
Speaker 1 (37:44):
Well, this is should or Sanders story. That was my
first taste of it.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
Like, just because let's say it was five, I see
all the youngsters like all right later like, hey, but
we're in the middle of something.
Speaker 1 (37:56):
You're not done. I get it. We had an intern
once I know what he's talking about.
Speaker 2 (37:59):
That our producer video guy Spot was teaching this kid
how to load stuff in the system and sound clips
and doing everything. And he grabbed his backpack and he
just started leaving and we were like, did you finish
that now? But it's five o'clock later, bye, and you're like, wow, man, oh,
I have putting a little extra in. But then I'm thinking, like, well,
(38:19):
just because I was raised to overwork and put that
extra effort, and you're still always going to lose to
the guy that is willing to put the extra in.
But is that extra you're just giving more time to
the man when like, are you seeing the benefit or
you're more committed, or you're hungrier and you know you
have greater work ethic. I'll always hire the guy with
greater work ethic faster than the guy who's quick.
Speaker 1 (38:42):
To leave beat it.
Speaker 2 (38:43):
Then here's my question to you. Do we just continue
to mock younger generations or do we adjust? Because I
saw an article this is interesting. Let me ask you
a lot of companies, and this is the question. Yeah,
why does the older generation have to adjust to the
younger general because they have the workforce you're hiring.
Speaker 1 (38:56):
That's why. Yeah, you're hiring, but which means you're the superior.
Speaker 2 (39:02):
Let me reference two articles and then Danny has you
know details on this Shadora Sanders perfect example.
Speaker 1 (39:09):
Two articles I read recently.
Speaker 2 (39:11):
One of them was all about how if you want
to hire someone of this younger generation. They're all about transparency.
Don't don't tell me about a job without listing the salary.
Speaker 1 (39:24):
How much you pay me?
Speaker 2 (39:25):
Because I'm not hanging out at your company for fun.
I want to get paid. So before I interview, before
I do anything, how much you're paying. And some people
are saying, well, that's entitled rubs me the wrong way.
Gen Z would say, no, I just want transparency. I'm
not going to come there, interview and do all this
and then you decide what you're gonna pay me.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
What does this job pay? And I sort of understand it.
Speaker 2 (39:48):
I mean it's a little bold for someone with not
that many options. It just sounds like a little another
man at that. Listen to this article how to slay
This is written from gen Z's perspective. Can tell by
the headline how to slay summer employment. If you want
to attract our generation gen Z, keep these things in mind.
(40:09):
Number one, when we excel, let us know if we
do a good job, gen Z wants a pat on
the back. Part of positive reinforcement. They want a ton
So it's good. Hey, I can relate to that. Who
doesn't like to be told they're doing a good job?
But is it needed and necessary all the time.
Speaker 1 (40:28):
Now, there's a few others. I'm going to get to
all them. So how to handle gen Z?
Speaker 2 (40:33):
And that's a bit much so Rich, I mean, we
all like that, but it's like necessary. Do you want
to employ productive young people or not? So we're going
to get to all this, plus some NBA, NFL, a
lot of fun. Friday, Cavino and Rich right here on

Or the new ones first?
Speaker 1 (00:49):
How about none of them?
Speaker 2 (00:50):
No, I'm kidding, I would say the ones from the
seventies and eighties, right, Well, because my kid was asking me, right,
I'm like, oh yeah, that's interesting because you could probably
watch the newer ones, the weaker.
Speaker 1 (00:59):
One, the prequels, But anyway, I digest. It's fight night.

a few more pair of those jeans. There's such high quality.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Awesome.
Speaker 2 (01:40):
If you're buying shorts to spring, you're gearing up for summer,
look into it. Save twenty percent off. All right, A
lot to get through today. Belichicker Caveno one of our
new favorite games. We're gonna play that. You know, it's
a great game. But the more that comes out about
Belichick and the creepyer he sounds, the more I'm resenting it.
Speaker 1 (01:57):
I'm like, wait a second, you just like him.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
I'm nothing like this guy, so Belichick or Cavino, Phil
Simms and lt here in the news. And it's not
the eighties and we're not in New York. So we'll
talk some NFL. Do we need to accommodate gen z
hell no? Not that girl that you hooked up with
in college generation z oh, generation z no. So we'll
talk about that. There's a Shador Sanders story. But before
(02:21):
we get going, before we get cracking on today's show,
two random dumb thoughts I had.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
What would our show be without my dumb thoughts? I
ad a random story? Please do buddy? All right?
Speaker 2 (02:30):
Cool, I got a dumb story to tell. Question number one.
It doesn't need to be a long discussion. In fact,
it could be one second. As we welcome Danny G
to the studio, super producing. Yo.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Yoh, our buddy Prefet running the board, say what's up? Prefet?
Are you aggravated today? You're happy? Lost? So I'm not
exactly I told you found that you had to work
with VJ. Husky this weekend. Saw some clips on social
well hold on, I.
Speaker 3 (03:00):
Prefer really not to speak.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
If I speak, I am in big.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
Trouble, so Dan Byer, of course the legend on the updates.
Let me go round the room. My wife and I
taking the kids out for ice cream the other night,
and the question is where do you go? I said,
all right, kids, we're going to Coldstone Creamery and my
wife said, now, Basketing Robins.
Speaker 1 (03:24):
And I'm like, are you nuts?
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Would anyone in this room choose basket Robins over Coldstone Creamery?
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Yeah, thirty one flavors, Let's go. It's simple.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Don't worry Creamery. They mix it all up, and that's
what I want to avoid. Sometimes I want to be
eat and out, like, hey, let's get out of here.
You get your cotton candy ice cream because kids always
love cotton candy ice cream. I'll get my chocolate chip
or cookie doing bounce. I don't need the whole song
and dance all the time. Every once in a while,
it's nice, like if you don't get ice cream all
that often, or it's a special event, or the kid
(03:54):
just performed that in assembly, or he won a game
and you want to get him something extra.
Speaker 1 (03:59):
I think call Stone Creamy is a little extra. I
don't know. I kind of like it. I don't love
it or gotta have it. Dann Bye, I feel like
you're gonna be team Rich on this Coldstone.
Speaker 4 (04:08):
This is I'm sorry, I can't just give you a
one word answer. I feel that there are almost two
different entities, whereas Coldstone is like a five guys and
Baskin Robbins is McDonald's. So there is a bit of
an upper tier of burger. But it also just kind
of what Cavino is saying, there's a difference means to
the occasion of what yeah, like, yeah, it depends, But
(04:31):
if you're choosing one, I think Coldstone, like quality wise,
has got to be better.
Speaker 5 (04:35):
Yeah, Danny g what do you think Coldstone? But I
have left Coldstone before and felt very fat. You gotta
have it, you gotta love it, like it, gotta have it.
Speaker 1 (04:46):
It's too rich.
Speaker 5 (04:46):
So the smallest serving Coldstone will offer you, that's what
I would take. I would say, like for a weekly thing,
if you went once a week, it would be Baskin Robins.
Speaker 6 (04:55):
You know.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
I also like to share though, the fact that when
I was a kid, Baskin Robbins was the big deal.
So I like to share that with my kids. Hey,
when Aunt Sharon took dad, the Baskin Robbins. That meant something.
So here you go, let's share this experience together. They
had thirty one flavors back then.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
That was a lot.
Speaker 5 (05:15):
Not grow up with the frozen yogurt boom on the east. Yeah,
well that's our choice these days. Remember back of the day.
For a minute in the two thousands, pink Berry was over.
They oh yeah, there's still some location, Frozen Yogurt Land
and all this stuff.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Perfet What was the Wasn't there like a Dippin' Dots place?
Or am I tripping? You mean the ice cream in
the future.
Speaker 6 (05:34):
Yeah, I loved Well, first off, I love Dippin' Dots,
But like, why don't we have Ben and Jerry's in
here as an option?
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Well, Ben and Jerry's great, there's one right across the
street from the Fox Sports radio studio.
Speaker 6 (05:44):
But yeah, it's the same thing you get in the
tub at the store, like you can get fish food
in a waffle cone.
Speaker 4 (05:50):
I'll tell you why it's not an option because Rich
started the story saying I'm going to Coldstone and his
wife said, we're not going to Baskin Robbins, Right, that's right,
I mean the wife then didn't jump in and say
why aren't we going to Menchies?
Speaker 2 (06:03):
So tell you if I was on the East Coast,
damn Byer, I would say what about Carvel or mister
SIFTI I'm saying. I said, it was like seven o'clock,
our kids bedtime soon, but dad wants ice cream.
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Everyone hop in the car, and I was assuming Coltstone.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Would be like, yay, right, So if you have thoughts,
we're not asking for dairy queen, right, it's one of
the other.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
It's one of the other. Scovell even do anything besides
Fudgie the Whale.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Fudgie the Whale is great, Cookie Puss and the flying Saucers,
And yeah, I love Carville, Tom Carvell's legend on the
East Coast.
Speaker 1 (06:35):
But Rich, I think that.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
If you want simple, you want in and out, you
go basking Robbins if it's a special occasion, and again
you want to impress the kids. It's almost like the
hibachi the teppanyaki of ice cream for making it in
front of you. It's a big deal in line too, though.
It's always busy at Corystone and it's supposed to be
an experience, meaning if you remember when you at Coldstone,
(07:01):
they were supposed to sing for it and ring a
bell or something. Yeah, it was supposed to be like
a whole extravaganza. So if you go there for that fun,
I get it. However, I will say this, they're both
really expensive. You think one's more expensive than the other, Dude,
they're both pretty fat. Coldstone's a little more expensive. And
I say this in a disgusted manner. For ice cream
(07:24):
servings two adults, two kids, cups forty bucks at Coldstone Creamer, Yes,
but it's so good.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
A right? That was question one?
Speaker 7 (07:31):
You know?
Speaker 2 (07:31):
Can I answer your question? Yes, what dad wants takes
a back seat to what WiFi and the kids want.
If you could do both, and why not if you
have time, but they take precedent. So there's your answer
if you want to know the answer, if you really
give a crap, which you probably don't. We went to
both because I'm like, well, I'm gonna get Coldstone. If
you dopes want bask and Robbins, I'll stop it both.
But I'm not giving up that cake batter ice cream
(07:54):
at Coldstone.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
It's so creamy and good. I get it. If you're
gonna pick at you want what you want.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Yeah, it's almost like there are times by kids like
I want McDonald's. I'm like, dad doesn't want that crap.
I want Chipotle, So you go to both. Okay, question one?
Speaker 1 (08:04):
Question two?
Speaker 2 (08:05):
Have you ever bought the jersey or apparel of a cool,
funny minor league baseball team? Like I know, for a minute,
what was the the modesto nuts about nuts on it? Yeah,
for a long time, I wanted that one. I used
to rock the Greensborough Bats a lot because they were
a Yankees minor league affiliate and I had gone to
(08:26):
the stadium when I was a kid.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
That's cool.
Speaker 2 (08:28):
Yeah, No, you know what, if you need options, I
think there are a lot of fun options in fun hats.
Speaker 1 (08:33):
Why do you got one?
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Because I remember at one point, remember when Robinson Cano
played for those like the SpongeBob team for a minute, Yeah,
they had those uniforms.
Speaker 1 (08:40):
There's a new minor league team. They're doing a weekend.
Speaker 2 (08:43):
Special event, the more Head Morehead City Marlins. Already I'm
in tell me more. The Morehead City Marlins that play
in the Coastal League in Florida for the weekend are
changing their name. They are the Morehead City Booty Divers. Oh,
I gotta get one, and k Hernandez has to get
(09:04):
one too, because he was caught wearing a hat that
said it, but it had nothing to do with base Yeah,
but the Booty Divers, meaning it looks like a pirate
diving for booty best.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
I mean, if you could get a Booty Divers jersey,
that's fun.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
Yeah, that's fun and funny, except for when you're picking
your kids up at school. Then it may seem inappropriate
because that happens once in a while. I know you
got a little story about that, and I've done that too.
You're wearing something dumb because your friends gave it to you,
or it's like a gag gift and you have fell
sleep in it.
Speaker 1 (09:32):
You show up at the school and you don't realize
you're wearing it. You're like, oh, you like this. This
is the Crystal Coast Booty Divers. I do like that.
That's so cool, right, I'd get a T shirt. I
would get that. I have two. I think it's it's
all fair game with minor league stuff. I really do.
Because I'm a Yankees fan. I don't wear other teams.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
There's other hosts here that should rename remain nameless, even
though we already mentioned them.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
Who wears all different hats. I'm like, dude, choose.
Speaker 2 (09:58):
One, pick one, because you're a sports guy when it
comes to minor league stuff, I think, yeah, rock, whatever
one you want.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
I have two.
Speaker 2 (10:05):
Embarrassing stories about wearing things and not realizing it. So
I told the story back in the day. It's embarrassing.
I can't believe I'm even saying alluding to this on
Fox Sports Radio. But when I was a pre teen teenager,
I've told the story. Like a lot of young dumb boys,
Let's just say you've done things to the cushions of
your couch. Let's just say when people say you love
(10:27):
it at Levitt's, Rich really.
Speaker 1 (10:29):
Loved it at Levitt'zez, I.
Speaker 2 (10:33):
Say, I was an amped up thirteen year old when
Rich went to Ashley Furniture. He was pretending it was
Ashley for real. Let's just say when my parts are
at our childhood couch, I cried. Now, So I jokingly
told the guys this story, thinking what was I thinking?
Speaker 1 (10:47):
Who knows? So one of our listeners made me a
shirt that says Rich took the love seat.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Literally, it said hetero sectional and it was a couch
with an opening, and I wore it to the gym
and someone was like, what's with the shirt.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
I'm like, oh, I didn't realize what shirt I was wearing.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Point is, you can't wear a booty diver's shirt to
school assembly or to pick them up. Do you mean,
like my wife are on the holidays or even to
the gym because you might see like one of the
parents that you know there and you feel embarrassed. My
wife was My wife is not like some dirty minded person.
I bought her a novelty shirt because I saw it
on sale, like H and M or something. It was
(11:27):
a red sweater around the holidays, and then sparkles it
said tinsel. I'll just say it starts with a tea
tinsel tinsel time.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
And she's like, oh my god, you're so dumb.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
She was scrambled to get the kids ready for school
one morning, threw it on and we're doing kid drop
off and I'm like, babe, do you know what you're wearing.
Speaker 1 (11:49):
She's like, oh my god, that's my only warning with
the new hair.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
But I think hats our fair game if you want
to mix it up a little bit, because you got
to find some new hats every once in a while
while to match your kicks.
Speaker 6 (12:01):
I mean, this is kind of cheating because of my hometown,
but I had I had plenty of mud Hen's stuff
growing up. But there was one night, and I think
it was when the Tigers sent down Jose Valverde or
actually I think Justin Verlander might have been down there,
because they did a lot of promotional nights and I
think they had like, Okay, one time it was a
hot dog night and I really wanted a hot dog
jersey the hot dogs.
Speaker 1 (12:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (12:21):
The other I think when Verlander was like rehabbing in Toledo,
they had a Jurassic Park night involving one of those
like inflatable t rexes waddling up to the mound to
hand him the ball.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
That's funny. See, I love those. I would like that
I was gonna buy.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
We went recently to the Mets a's game in Sacramento
and they play at the Sacramento river Cats Stadium, and
they had the river Cats gear there and I was
thinking about it. I could buy one to get away with.
It doesn't matter, no doubt. So anyway, Rich, great question.
Any other final thoughts before we move on. I was
the you know, domb Minor League teams in ice cream.
(12:56):
I'm done well speaking of to You know what I
did last night. I don't know if you notice, but
check out my gleaming chicklets. Check out these pearly whites
that I got going on. They're extra sensitive today.
Speaker 1 (13:08):
You know what I was doing? You look like Matt
Dillon and something about Mary. Well.
Speaker 2 (13:11):
See, I use my whitening strips on my actual teeth.
Rich uses them in places that we can't even see.
You're not supposed to put them on your you know, yeah,
but Rich uses them in all these weird places. I
was putting them on my teeth right every single only
got my teeth cleaned. So I was like, you know what,
I'm mean to use those whitening strips, but you're supposed
to keep them on for like forty five minutes. You
forgot that, dude. I passed out last night. I woke
(13:35):
up at like five in the morning and I still
had them on. And now my teeth are like so sensitive.
When I breathe in, I could feel it hurt your
gum my gums and my Tonight I drink anything, my
teeth like tonight when I'm reading my son a bedtime story,
can you just stand above us? Yeah, and I mean
my teeth are you know, fluorescent white right now? But guys,
(13:57):
just the warning. And of course I had a forty
five minute set. Must have slept right through it or
shut it off.
Speaker 1 (14:03):
I woke up.
Speaker 2 (14:04):
I must have had it on for like six plus hours, dude,
and my teeth are listening though hurting. I mean, yeah,
these chompers are listening. But thank you for listening. So
that's just my stupid story. Don't let it happen to you.
And let's get into it. Man, buddy, we're gonna play
Belichick or Cavino coming up. Let's dive into it like
the booty Divers, the booty Divers of the Coastal League.
(14:26):
Here's my question. I want to start with something that
this part of the story is not new news. Lawrence
Taylor as we know legends. I mean, in our childhood,
he's the real LT. I mean, not only was he
epic in real life, I mean the guy could block
extra points in Tech Mobile. By the way, dB Danny
(14:47):
g Prefet, that was one of the coming of age
stories in our life when we started to notice that
younger generations thought LT meant Ladanian Tomlinson like, hold on,
it does not, but to them it did. I remember
when Ladanian Tomlinson went to the Jets. We were working
at SNY in New York. We were asking people on
the streets, Yeah, who's LT. And we did like a
(15:09):
man on the street thing based on age.
Speaker 1 (15:11):
It was generational. People were saying Ladanian and other people
were saying, of course Lawrence Taylor.
Speaker 2 (15:15):
And I believe he was on the cover of Madden
and Everything at one point, right, So yeah, the younger
kids jumped on that so hard. LT to them is
Ladanian Tomlinson. Well, we're talking about Lawrence Taylor. We're talking
about dangle earring Lawrence Taylor, who did more cocaine in
the eighties. Him or Keith Hernandez. It's a great New
York question. Definitely Hernandez. Allegedly we're talking number fifty six LT.
(15:39):
Now we know the story of Abdull Carter. Very excited
giants fan bas this guy's going to make a difference
in New York, New Jersey.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
When asked, is it.
Speaker 2 (15:50):
Cool if Abdull Carter wears your number fifty six? Lawrence
Taylor was pretty much like, yeah, kick Rock's kid, get
your own legacy, get your own number. And I actually
liked his comment. Wasn't it something about create your own path?
He wasn't rude about it, but it was pretty much
like fifty six. And in fact, it's insulting to his honor.
(16:11):
I think Abdul Carter, Hey, I wish him all the best,
but I think that's a disrespectful request. Why do you
think they retire numbers in the first place, not so
some young GIBBRONI can come out.
Speaker 1 (16:22):
And take it.
Speaker 2 (16:22):
You know, do you know we know what this happens
at school with your kids or you know, maybe with neighbors.
You know, when someone ask you something so ballsy that
you're almost taking aback like I guess. So, Yeah, I'm
glad Lawrence Taylor didn't react, like the hell could I get?
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Guess?
Speaker 5 (16:39):
You know this?
Speaker 2 (16:40):
You know the honor that I earned? Yeah, you're trying
to take it away? How about you beat it? He
could have been, in my opinion, should have been a
little more rude about it. He said, hey, listen, youngster,
create your own path, gets your own number. I don't
like it, you know, from the get go, and I
wish nothing but the best to Abdul Carter. I think
he overstepped here. I think someone should have told him, like, no,
(17:00):
that's Lawrence Taylor. He's a legend. What do you have
in your mind? But then again, I heard Jonas, our
coworker on two pros and a cup of Joe, said,
is there.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
Any harmon asking? Yes?
Speaker 2 (17:11):
Okay, you know it actually is a good point, but
you'd be surprised as to what you'd get when you
ask that. There's true to that, for sure, but you're
asking almost them almost to take back an honor. It's like,
I just don't I don't think that's fair at all
to Lawrence Taylor, or to the organization or anybody.
Speaker 5 (17:31):
And Taylor added, he said, I'm hoping that he's not thinking,
oh I just got shot down by LT. No, it's
not like that, man, It's hey, I'm with you. I mean,
I'm the guy that that I am, and it's going
to take two of the two of us here. I'm
going to be two steps behind you and make sure
you don't fall. Yeah, so saying he's going to be
a supportive, but just make your own mark with your
(17:53):
own number.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Dude, even in high school. I didn't.
Speaker 2 (17:56):
I took my jersey when I left. The team wasn't retired, obviously,
but I'm like, I don't want no one taking my jersey,
my jersey beat it's okay, kidding, Yeah, no, I'm serious.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
Stole my jersey.
Speaker 2 (18:06):
And you know because in high school, remember back in
the day, they just recycled him for the next like five.
Speaker 1 (18:10):
If you took your jersey, there would be no other
than number sixteen. Yeah, exactly, Hey where's the men's large sixteen?
And I was like, who's gonna stop me? I don't
want someone else wearing this. I was the og original
Ocho Sinco.
Speaker 2 (18:21):
People don't realize that in the Union Little League, in
a new Jersey, no one could wear Cavino's twenty three.
Uh I'm sorry, how many twenty seven Littleague home run jersey?
Speaker 1 (18:30):
That's right? No one can we have that one my
all star jersey.
Speaker 2 (18:33):
My point is you're very territorial about your number, especially
when you're a legendary guy whose number was retired.
Speaker 1 (18:40):
They held a ceremony for you. You're a legend in
that city.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
For some I don't want to say he'son nobody, but
he hasn't done anything yet in New York to ask
for that member, it's a boldery ian. Listen, one comes
to mind for me, and I'm sure you know Dan
Bayer is a man of sports knowledge and history. Can
you think of a guy that changed teams and had
to pivot other than Joe Montana because Montana went to
the Chiefs. I believe Len Dawson was number sixteen and
(19:04):
then Montana rock number nineteen. He didn't say, hey, can
you retire sixteen?
Speaker 1 (19:09):
And that's Joe Montana.
Speaker 2 (19:10):
Have there been other guys that you could think of
that had a like pivot, like guys who went to
the Yankees.
Speaker 1 (19:14):
A Rod number three was like, I can't be babe, Ruth,
I'll be thirteen.
Speaker 4 (19:17):
I'll answer your question by not answering your question. Remember
the old Pro Bowl when we would you would have
guys of the same jersey number that would go to
the Pro Bowl. In the you'd have to change numbers
at that time. If there were two twenty nine's on
the field, you know, sorry, Eric Dickerson, you may not
have tenure over that person, and you may have to
(19:39):
so in those games, they would make them change. I
do remember Peyton Manning did not have to pivot, the
Broncos retired Frank Trapuka's number eighteen. So when Manning went
from Indianapolis to Denver, they asked and he allowed him
to wear eighteen. In fact, used it as as a
way to hey, if you come here, you can have eighteen.
Speaker 1 (19:59):
If you signed Broncos, there you go.
Speaker 2 (20:01):
So so there have been a couple times it goes
both ways. But here's the update on this story, because
that part of the story is not necessarily new. Abdul Carter,
if you put your thinking cap on, just google image
him at Penn State. He wore number eleven. I grew
up in the eighties in New York. They are a
heck a lot of eleven jerseys because it was that
(20:21):
blonde haired stud who gave can you know, a stink
palm handshake one time? Oh bro, you're gonna bring that up.
Let's preface by saying Phil Simms is a New York
legend and a hell of a broadcaster, and what a
fella nice guy. Actually, it was nothing but kind and
generous to us the times we've met. And I'm not
saying anything you brought it up. I just said, I
(20:43):
want to preface your story. Phil Sims number eleven. Has
said it would be an honor Abdul Carter for you
to wear my number eleven for the New York Giants.
Speaker 1 (20:53):
I got you. So it's the other side of things. Now,
Phil Sims saying I would love this. I don't have
a problem with that.
Speaker 7 (21:02):
Now.
Speaker 4 (21:02):
Eleven is a story number at Penn State. Yep, it's
LaVar Arrington. You just mentioned two pros. There's the long
list of guys who have worn eleven, just like eighty
eight is with the Dallas Cowboys. When you wear eighty eight,
like Drew Pearson, like Michael Irvin, like Does Bryant, like
Ceedee Lamb, there's something do it. Some guys don't rock
like that. For Phil Simms to be like, Okay, that's cool.
(21:24):
I think that's cool of Phil Simms. But it's not
like eleven is Abdul Carter's number. That's Penn State All
American linebacker.
Speaker 2 (21:31):
It's like Syracuse number forty four fours is a big deal.
Speaker 1 (21:35):
Yes, absolutely so I see it.
Speaker 4 (21:37):
I don't think that's a little weird.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
Even though Phil Simms is definitely a legendary guy in
New York for the Giants, he's not Lawrence Taylor but
that's not even my point. My point is if he
feels one way, and he feels okay giving up that
number eleven, like Dan Byer said, Hey man, that's really cool.
It's really nice of him. But that doesn't mean that
Lawrence Taylor is in the wrong for not wanting to No,
(22:00):
of course, it's like a total preference thing. Lawrence Taylor's like, nah, man,
that's my number. No way, make your own path. If
Phil Simms wants to do that, that's on him, and
I'm all for it. I'm surprised, though, I'm surprised to
hear it. Well, you know, I don't think there should
be any pressure for these retired guys to give up
their number. We're gonna go over all your feedback if
you want to chime in, Hey, Most Interactive show on
(22:20):
Fox Sports Radio eight seven to seven, nine to nine
on Fox at Covin on Rich will get to you
guys next. And then a really interesting thought about accommodating
different generations, and it has to do with some of
these young dudes coming out of the draft that are
twenty twenty one years old.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
They want your number, they want everything.
Speaker 2 (22:40):
But is it our job to accommodate a different generation.
You can't assume everyone just has to adjust to you.

right here on.

Speaker 2 (24:19):
I get it, it's an eighties classic, but I think
of Robbie Hart's version The Second Babe.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
I'd have to look at that version the Wedding Singer
the Second.
Speaker 6 (24:30):
I hear this, Yeah, that's Wedding Singers underrated for Adam Sands.
Speaker 1 (24:35):
Oh it's great, you know, Profet, I would argue, might
be Adam Samuel's best movie. Uh, I think that's for me.
That's Uncut Gems. I know it was recent, but I
loved ONCT on cut Jobs.
Speaker 2 (24:45):
On cut Jobs two different vibes, though very different, is
the most frantic movie I think I've ever seen. But
from hearted Robbie Hart in the wedding singer Fantastic, We're
Cavino and reg profets in for Sam. We got the
NYG super producer and getting our games ready. We're giving
away prizes on this Friday. We always have fun on Fridays,
casual Walt Friday, but in action packed Friday. I get
(25:07):
some big fights tonight. You got some NBA. We got
Belichick or Cavino, which, like I said, I'm sort of
resenting and regretting right now because I feel like he's
getting more weird as.
Speaker 1 (25:18):
Time goes on, as the story progresses, his game is
getting funnier to me? Is it him or me?
Speaker 2 (25:23):
If you could answer too right out of five questions,
you win a swiggy, So stick around for that plus
every Friday and week so get into weekend hobnobbing what
you need to watch in the world of sports and entertainment.
Speaker 1 (25:35):
But right now your phone calls at eight seven seven
ninety nine, O Fox.
Speaker 2 (25:39):
Let's go to you guys, everything from minor league jerseys
to my deep thought about Coldstone versus Baskin Deep Are
you joking me? Abdul Carter asking for jersey numbers?
Speaker 1 (25:49):
Let's go to Drew in Vegas. What's up, buddy boy?
How you doing? What's up? Man?
Speaker 2 (25:54):
Hey?
Speaker 8 (25:55):
I just want to give you a heads up. You
had mentioned the more At City Marlins.
Speaker 1 (25:58):
Yeah.
Speaker 8 (25:59):
Yeah, that's not Florida. That's actually North Carolina. I was
born in Moriton City. I just want to give a
shout out home, Yo.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Shout out to you. I thought it was for some reason,
I thought it was Florida. But you know what, You're
staying corrected, So I stay corrected. But I'm still going
to get the booty Divers jersey. Yeah, hey, thanks, you
appreciate it, Hey, Drew.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
She was like, the Booty Divers are from North Carolina, right,
Dustin and Virginia. What's up Dustin.
Speaker 8 (26:23):
Bask and Robin versus Colstone. It's it's like to the
point of, you know, a different occasion l Roday overs
the Taco bell. I'm with it, depending on the situation,
if you need to be in and out or not.
And and the retiring jerseys. I mean, if you had
a zero and a double zero, you only got one
hundred and one. Eventually, with position based numbers, we're gonna
run out right.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
Look at the Yankees. I know I had give Camino
crap all the time because I'm a Mets guy. He's
a Yankees guy.
Speaker 1 (26:48):
But you know, Yankee. I see Yankees run like number
eighty two, like they're wide receivers. What are we doing?
Like eventually you might need to say.
Speaker 2 (26:55):
And reset, you know, like as Waldo Cabrara wearing number
ninety five just ninety nineteen alignment or a or an infielder,
those numbers and positions. Yeah, we have to think of
them differently. Now, Yeah, ninety nine is a baseball number.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
Why is zero a number for a jersey? It's a
good ques. I'm still trying to figure that out. Why zero.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
I had a buddy in high school who thought it
was cool. He wanted to be nine, so he would
he would specially order the nine. People like people have
that preferences.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
It's pretty amazing. In basketball, our jerseys were it was
either ten through fifteen, twenty through fifteen, or twenty five,
thirty through thirty five, then ever went past six. We
didn't have single digit jerseys. It was just and to
Coveno's point in wanting his number, the smaller you were,
the smaller number that you got, like what it used
(27:47):
to be. If you were fifty four. You were probably
six four and you know, two hundred and fifty pounds.
You were the husky kid in the little league. You
were number fourteen. If your teens were husky from J. C.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
Penny.
Speaker 2 (27:57):
Yes, yeah, because the littler kid wore number one, and
exactly that's usually how it went right. It's funny would
say that because I as you know, as if I
don't mention it once a show. You know, the number
one coach here on Fox Sports Radio, Rich Davis. So
I've heard, Yeah, I coach five and under t ball,
little kids, pony ball, all their jerseys, like Dan Bayer said,
(28:18):
I got the little jerseys. And if there's a big
kid on my team, I had a call the next
league up. That's also the Rockies. It'd be like, hey,
you got a bigger Rockies jersey because one of my
one of my kids is husky. And then you'll get
a call from someone from a higher league like we got.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
A little guy.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
Do you have a kid d uniform? You're right, So
that is how it is. And by the way, if
you just joined us and you don't know the story.
Abdul Carter now with giant War number eleven in college.
But he asked Lawrence Taylor, Hey, can I whar you're
retired number fifty six? You know that honor bestowed upon you.
Can I reverse the honor? And where your number? Because
a lot of years have passed, I get it to him.
(28:56):
He's like, yeah, Lawrence Taylor, I guess it's okay to ask. Like, yeah,
I agree with Jonahs like, there's no harm in asking,
but that's a bold ask. And Lawrence Taylor said beat
it in a nice way to kindly. And then phil
Simms said, hey, you were number eleven in college. You
can wear my number eleven, which, by the way, is
an odd gesture to me, to be honest. There was like,
(29:17):
way too kind It's like take my wife sleep with it. Yeah,
he was like, way too willing.
Speaker 4 (29:22):
You guys are are way more lenient than I am,
because I'm gonna sound like, get off my lawn, guy.
But I do think it's too much to ask. You
don't understand the history. You don't understand who Lawrence Taylor's
And that's fine. It wasn't this generation, he wasn't born.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
It does sound tone deaf to us.
Speaker 4 (29:36):
I agree, yes, But there's also the fact of I
think it's disrespectful to Michael Strahan, Justin tuck, Ocu Manora,
other great Giants players who didn't ask for Lawrence Taylor's
fifty six or kept their own numbers. So for Abdul
Carter to think like I'm next, and it's like, hold up,
super Bowl forty two and Super Bowl forty six were
(29:58):
one because of their defensive lines and for what they did.
And so I think I think that there's nothing that
he intended to hurt anyone's feelings by it. I just
think that you're not understanding history in doing so.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Maybe this leads to Rich's other thought, Abdul Carter wish
him nothing but the best, right.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
I think he overstepped a little bit.
Speaker 2 (30:16):
But maybe these younger kids, these weenials, are just wired
with this sense of entitlement. It's not like, yeah, I
hate that word too, justarely used that word. But maybe
it's just something in them and in their generation where
they don't really care. The word entitlement does rub me
the wrong way because I don't think that's necessarily it.
Speaker 1 (30:35):
We'll get to that next.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
I want to say, why is it that all these
younger generations expect to be you know, head of the
company before they did anything. Think about it because we're
going to dive into it next. Let's say had a
Raffi real quick that we will go to Dan Baier
for enough day Raffi and Idaho Wrap this up?
Speaker 1 (30:51):
Man, what's up?
Speaker 8 (30:52):
Fellas Hey, you're talking about the misunderstanding generationally about the
LT initials.
Speaker 1 (30:57):
Yeah.
Speaker 6 (30:58):
My uncle was always quick to remind me.
Speaker 8 (31:00):
An ice Cube song when he says freaking brothers everywhere
like mj that I wasn't corrected.
Speaker 1 (31:05):
It was Michael Jordan, but Magic Johnson. And you know what,
Dan byer bro went up during the commercial. I agree.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
When I hear people talking about AI like artificial intelligence,
I still think Allen Iverson when I hear someone say,
well ai', I'm.
Speaker 1 (31:19):
Like Ellen Iverson. Oh no, no, AI, okay AI is
taking over.
Speaker 6 (31:23):
AI take it over for your store fighting that's a
d or ap because some people insist, no, no, it's
his initials, Adrian Peterson.
Speaker 1 (31:30):
Do you use Anthony Davis?
Speaker 2 (31:32):
No, no, no, no. People don't realize Dan Byer not.
He's a robot and he's giving your update right now.
Speaker 1 (31:37):
AI.
Speaker 4 (31:38):
Dan Byer Greg Popovich will no longer be head coach
off to San Antonio Spurs. Well, all robots, remember we
thought back of that. No, that's how robots sound, dude.
That's that's it. Greg Popovitch stepping down his head coach
of the Spurs. He's going to move into a full
time role oft seem president within the organization INTERIMID coach
(31:59):
Mitch Johns and will become the team's full time head
coach for Popovitch. He's seventy six years old, spend twenty
nine years as head coach, has the most career wins
of any coach in NBA history, five NBA titles as well.
Greg Popovich calling it quits coaching but now team president
of the San Antonio Spurs.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
That's a cool pivot for him, and the team treated
him the right way, and coach pop around the league
is such a respected guy, So I like this.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Move a lot.
Speaker 4 (32:23):
Yeah. Twama Siecilo is going to be the full time
head coach of the Memphis Grizzlies. He solo took over
for the Fire and Taylor Jenkins with nine games left
in the regular season for Memphis. The forty two year
old now gets the full time gig Rockets and Warriors
tonight game six nine o'clock Eastern Time, Warriors up three
to two in the series. Lakers forward Lebron James has
a Grade two MCL spring in his left knee. That's
(32:44):
according to ESPN, suffered it late in that loss to
the Timberwolves on Wednesday. He's going to need about three
to five weeks to recover. Yankee skipper Aaron Boone says
an oblique injury could sideline in fielder Jastism Junior for
four to six weeks, placed on the ten day injured list. Today,
Dallas Cowboys and first round pickguard Tyler Booker to a
four year deal. We're twenty two and a half million
(33:04):
dollars and they're back playing golf on the PGA Tour
the CJ Cup Byron Nelson. Rain delayed play for much
of the afternoon storms in the Dallas area, but Scotti
Scheffler leads at fourteen hunder par. He is through eleven
holes on his second round.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
Guys, back to you, thank dank you.
Speaker 2 (33:20):
My friend d be with the update now coming up
based on the Abdul Carter story, based on Shador Sanders
as a story, We're going to get to I want
to talk about how do we handle different generations. Listen,
if you're around right, your parents are boomers, you're probably
Gen X, are a millennial, and this younger Gen Z
(33:43):
everything from lingo to as you said, entitlement to how
people expect to be handled, but that they think exemplifies
what we're talking about. You don't think it's strange that
a kid coming out of college thinks he deserves a
legend's number that was retired. But someone younger, that is
some mindset. Younger might tell you, well, what's the hormone asking?
(34:04):
It's the harmon asking. He's like, this guy proved he
had a whole career to earn that honor. You haven't
played a down in the NFL and you want it, Well,
that's odd to me. There's a Shador Sanders story we're
gonna get to and again this is not dumping on
Generation Z, but there are differences and they're interesting ways
how to handle and navigate this, and we'll get to
(34:25):
it next right here on Fox Sports Radio. Ay Friday,
it's my favorite day, and I hope you had a
great Thursday. Brunston sort of Thursday, New York Knicks, the
Knickerbocker's sort of Thursday, You're killing me Clippers sort of Thursday,
(34:49):
and some good games tonight. Man, we'll talk about it
weekend hobnobbing. What you need to watch this weekend? We
do it every Friday. You know that song reminds me.
It reminds me that ay, there's not enough pan flute
in pop music and too speak for yoursel Have you
had Zombfier's greatest hits? And my goodness Shakira's hot Huh wow, bro,
good observation.
Speaker 5 (35:09):
Crush.
Speaker 1 (35:09):
That was absolutely my high school crush.
Speaker 7 (35:11):
Me.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
That's a good crush to have for fet. Right now,
it's time for our tire rack. Play of the day.
Speaker 2 (35:17):
After missing a close range shot towards the end of
the game of Game six the Knicks, Jalen Brunson made
his biggest.
Speaker 1 (35:23):
Three of the season.
Speaker 7 (35:25):
Please know, backing down a sorry top of thatt the
logo plenty of time left. We're tied at one thirteen
here in game six, Brunson between the legs Bilbol gets
rid of Thompson, walk up reporter.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
He got it.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
The Klutch player of the Year will not beat to night.
Speaker 7 (35:41):
Shalen Brunson was four point three, puts the list in
front one sixteen O one thirteen.
Speaker 1 (35:46):
I'm sorry, profet Pistons fan.
Speaker 2 (35:49):
That was New York Knicks obviously eliminating the Pistons four
games to two.
Speaker 1 (35:53):
That's our Tirack play of the day.
Speaker 2 (35:55):
And you know when Brunson hit that and holds up
the three fingers, so cool looking up that was though.
That was a cool moment unless you're a Pistons fan.
For over forty years, Tyrak has been helping customers find

with the convenient installation options like mobile tire installation, tireract
dot com tire buying should be I'm Covino. That is
(36:17):
Rich Danyg's on the phones at eight seven seven ninety
nine on Fox Quick Reminder because it's a big fight night. Yep,
we do a whole fight preview on over Promised our
bonus podcast. The links in our Instagram story on our
X page at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio
over promises our bonus show. You can watch it on
Fox Sports Radios YouTube page or listen. We give you
(36:39):
a good NBA breakdown, but hyping you up for the
fights this weekend, and I'll talk about it again in
weekend hobknobbing.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
But right now we gotta talk about well, like we
always talk about jen Z what a bunch of wienies.
Well see, it's very easy. It's very easy for every
generation too.
Speaker 2 (36:56):
No, it's very easy for every generation to make fun
of the younger jen generation, the greatest generation. Our grandparents
made fun of our boomer parents who were hippies, and
then they make fun of us, and then we make
fun of.
Speaker 1 (37:07):
The younger generation. It's cyclical. Your music stinks, ours is better.
You don't know, you don't get it, mom and dad.
Like this has gone on for the history of life.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
But there is something to be said about this younger
generation where I argue sometimes maybe they got it right.
There is a big emphasis on work life balance. There's
a big emphasis on mental health, and you know, work
isn't life. You know, you got to live it up.
Speaker 1 (37:33):
Or you could say that's just being lazy and doing
the bare minimum.
Speaker 2 (37:37):
No guy is in to get ahead putting his backpack
on because the five o'clock whistle rank It's like, yeah,
but you're not really done with your work.
Speaker 1 (37:44):
Well, this is should or Sanders story. That was my
first taste of it.
Speaker 2 (37:48):
Like, just because let's say it was five, I see
all the youngsters like all right later like, hey, but
we're in the middle of something.
Speaker 1 (37:56):
You're not done. I get it. We had an intern
once I know what he's talking about.
Speaker 2 (37:59):
That our producer video guy Spot was teaching this kid
how to load stuff in the system and sound clips
and doing everything. And he grabbed his backpack and he
just started leaving and we were like, did you finish
that now? But it's five o'clock later, bye, and you're like, wow, man, oh,
I have putting a little extra in. But then I'm thinking, like, well,
(38:19):
just because I was raised to overwork and put that
extra effort, and you're still always going to lose to
the guy that is willing to put the extra in.
But is that extra you're just giving more time to
the man when like, are you seeing the benefit or
you're more committed, or you're hungrier and you know you
have greater work ethic. I'll always hire the guy with
greater work ethic faster than the guy who's quick.
Speaker 1 (38:42):
To leave beat it.
Speaker 2 (38:43):
Then here's my question to you. Do we just continue
to mock younger generations or do we adjust? Because I
saw an article this is interesting. Let me ask you
a lot of companies, and this is the question. Yeah,
why does the older generation have to adjust to the
younger general because they have the workforce you're hiring.
Speaker 1 (38:56):
That's why. Yeah, you're hiring, but which means you're the superior.
Speaker 2 (39:02):
Let me reference two articles and then Danny has you
know details on this Shadora Sanders perfect example.
Speaker 1 (39:09):
Two articles I read recently.
Speaker 2 (39:11):
One of them was all about how if you want
to hire someone of this younger generation. They're all about transparency.
Don't don't tell me about a job without listing the salary.
Speaker 1 (39:24):
How much you pay me?
Speaker 2 (39:25):
Because I'm not hanging out at your company for fun.
I want to get paid. So before I interview, before
I do anything, how much you're paying. And some people
are saying, well, that's entitled rubs me the wrong way.
Gen Z would say, no, I just want transparency. I'm
not going to come there, interview and do all this
and then you decide what you're gonna pay me.
Speaker 1 (39:44):
What does this job pay? And I sort of understand it.
Speaker 2 (39:48):
I mean it's a little bold for someone with not
that many options. It just sounds like a little another
man at that. Listen to this article how to slay
This is written from gen Z's perspective. Can tell by
the headline how to slay summer employment. If you want
to attract our generation gen Z, keep these things in mind.
(40:09):
Number one, when we excel, let us know if we
do a good job, gen Z wants a pat on
the back. Part of positive reinforcement. They want a ton
So it's good. Hey, I can relate to that. Who
doesn't like to be told they're doing a good job?
But is it needed and necessary all the time.
Speaker 1 (40:28):
Now, there's a few others. I'm going to get to
all them. So how to handle gen Z?
Speaker 2 (40:33):
And that's a bit much so Rich, I mean, we
all like that, but it's like necessary. Do you want
to employ productive young people or not? So we're going
to get to all this, plus some NBA, NFL, a
lot of fun. Friday, Cavino and Rich right here on
Fox Sports Radio.
