Speaker 2 (00:21):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
What a Collins that you can't solve ignorance? Yeah, we've
been trying for twenty years, but.

Speaker 4 (00:30):
He also said some people aren't willing to evolve. Thank goodness,
baseball finally decided to because it's winning and we established that. Well,
football has always done a great job evolving, which is
why it's king. And we're gonna talk about of NFL
out of football this hour on Covene owner Itch. One.
Last point. Yesterday I got my shag trimmed up for
the weekend. How do you like to sound? Looking good?

(00:52):
Huh huh?

Speaker 3 (00:53):
Looking good?

Speaker 4 (00:54):
Baseball you're going to go to the Johannio Swerez mullllet.
You're not gonna go with that probably in winter, okay, fir, Yeah,
but baseball passed the barbershop test two. You know, yesterday
I was there getting a trim up for the weekend,
and all the votos there at the shop. Man, they're
buzzing about baseball. I'm telling you, buzz is not always

(01:15):
like that, you know, buzzing about it. Yes, with a
two clip one and a half little shirt on the sides,
but yeah, man, it was excitement in the barbershop, just
people talking about their team representing talking about the moves.
And it's usually football or basketball, and baseball was popping.

(01:39):
We've made it clear, but now we talk cam Ward,
but we get you involved at eight seven seven for
the Herd eight seven set, four thirty four thirty seven.
We're giving away prizes, we're playing games. We got weekend
hob nobbing. What you need to watch this weekend. But
before we talk some football, I know we have someone
on hold that wants to talk Shador Sanders specifically.

Speaker 3 (01:59):
All right, let's do it. I'm down to Terry in
San Diego.

Speaker 4 (02:04):
Back it off, Terry, Terry, back it up, buddy.

Speaker 5 (02:08):
Hey guys, Now, I get a little frustrated with ESPN
because they have a tendency to bury people they don't
like and prop up people they do. And it seems
like Shador Sanders has been propped up a little bit
too high, and Dylan Gabriel is getting buried. I mean,
if you compare their college stats, they're pretty similar. But
if you look at who they played, Dylan Gabriel played

(02:30):
an amazing schedule and beat some big teams. And Shador,
I mean, as much as they want to say he
was a number one draft pick, I mean you look
at his mentor, Tom Brady, who owns the owner of
the Raiders, who need a quarterback. The Raiders took not
five players ahead of Shador, they took seven before Shadeor

(02:51):
was drafted in the fifth round, which tells you Brady
might know something. But this morning, when when Herm Edwards
comes on and says that Dyldan Gabriel is less mobile
than Shador Sanders, that is just that just crazy.

Speaker 4 (03:05):
Well you know what it is too. I'm not saying
you're wrong by any means, but in this business, and
I consider became businessman, consider me a broadcasting tycoon, some
names are just sexier than others. There's a reason that
you know, Lebron does anything, and they're talking Lebron, Lebron, Lebron.
It gets people's attention. And Sanders is a pretty big name.

(03:28):
We've grown up with that name. People care about Shador Sanders.
Doesn't necessarily mean he's the best, but we talk about
him like he is. Well, it's it's not just ESPN, Terry,
And I'll tell you why, because I just searched while
you were asking the question.

Speaker 3 (03:43):
I searched it.

Speaker 4 (03:44):
There was an update if the Browns had said anything
about who's starting, and it said currently this four people,
and they still have not thought about it, not five.
Right now they're saying Flacco pick it, Dylan Gabriel and Shador.
But then under that, dannyg would you believe every single
article is about your door Sanders, from news Week to ESPN.

Speaker 6 (04:03):
To sex Although I found Brown's Nation Cleveland reporter Tony
cross Hey he he says that he believes the Browns
view their rookie quarterback as a number one pick from
the neck up. He says, they're very intrigued by Dylan Gabriel,
So I mean there's a good chance Gabriel is going
to get some starts this season.

Speaker 3 (04:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (04:24):
Look, they're all in it to win it. This is
the game of winning. So props to Dylan Gabriel's anyone's
job to win well, I know again you're saying that,
but now I'm reading another thing, Cleveland. I'm not saying
it's a mess because sometimes a plethora Sorry, did you
say a plethora? I said a plethora. Sometimes a plethora.

(04:46):
You even know what a plethora is? Oh see, I
think you have a plea of quarterbacks. Sometimes a plethora
is a good thing. Sometimes it just means you don't
have the one. Like if you're dating a bunch of
random people, it's probably because you haven't met the one,
or maybe you're just you know, an ask magnet.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
You don't know?

Speaker 4 (05:04):
Now, four quarterbacks? Could it be that Gabriel or Shador
eventually steps it up? Right now, every single tweet, every
single report is saying that the Browns maybe leaning towards Shadoor.
A lot of people say it'll be Flacco to start
the season and then they go from there. But what's
the man? Speaking of starters? How about that guy in
Miami to uh Tago Val? Did you guys see that?

(05:32):
I was playing it this morning as Spot was like
is that real? And I'm like, I hope it is.
You know what it sounded like?

Speaker 3 (05:38):
AI? Right? Tag? If you have not heard Donald Trump
say to his last name. Then you're in luck.

Speaker 4 (05:47):
Is it about ten minutes, fifteen minutes or so, let's
make sure.

Speaker 3 (05:51):
We pull it and play it.

Speaker 4 (05:52):
Ian. If you're listening in the editing room, please get
to the tag oh Valley, I believe he says it
like real again segment. We live in the said world
now where I don't know if anything's real or fake,
so let's also double check if it should be completely right. Well,

(06:12):
speaking of quarterbacks, see we're talking about African sa Door Sanders,
and he you know, dropped to what the h because
he's drowned on the talk. Cam Ward, you're number one
freaking pick. There's two thoughts about him. Danny g and
I were both on the same mindset last night because
I hit Danny up with something and then he hit
me up with something right after that. Cam Ward, get

(06:33):
this has the lowest overall Madden rating for a number
one pick in the last twenty five years. Now, you
might say, who gives a funk or wagnle my favorite
encyclopedia bread fucking wagon gives who gives a crowd gives
a terrible terry funk?

Speaker 3 (06:51):
But let's be honest.

Speaker 4 (06:53):
The younger generation and gamers do put a lot of
stock in their Madden ratings stock. I mean, how many
times have you heard players like jokingly and not jokingly
complain like yo, yo, they got it wrong. I think
that doesn't matter. You're over fifty easily because everyone younger
knows that it's way important for these young guys. So
the fact that cam Ward has the lowest Madden rating
for a number one pick in the last twenty five

(07:15):
years says something. And Danny g read the tweet that
you just sent me up.

Speaker 6 (07:18):
To that, and then there's a meme that says you
can comfortably say cam Ward is the least discussed number
one overall pick that's a quarterback heading into their rookie
year in the past twenty years.

Speaker 3 (07:30):
And that also is a fact.

Speaker 4 (07:31):
So I'm here to say this, guys, this is the
best thing ever for Cameron Ward. The fact that cam
Ward is not being talked about, there's no hype train.
Oh we talked about him yesday when he said the
offense is really mid right now.

Speaker 3 (07:47):
He did say the word mid, and we like that. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (07:50):
He didn't say they were chopped though, no, but mid
meaning they're not doing that great, they're kind of average,
but the simple fact that the expectation is not off
the charts, the fact that his Madden braiding is low,
the fact that all the attentions on Aaron Rodgers and
old guys and hey, is brock perty gonna earn his money? O.

(08:14):
The Eagles gonna repeat, Yo, what's gonna happen with McLaurin.
The Cowboys gonna get it together? There's you know, thirty
two storylines in the NFL, and I think rookie number
one pick cam Ward is in the bottom tier of
hot NFL stories. And I think this works to his
advantage because how many times are all eyes on the quarterback.

(08:35):
We saw with Caleb Williams, Oh look, he's a paint
in his fingernails. And he did this, he established yesterday,
he said this in the locker room. Is usually the
front man of the band. He's the most famous. He's
the face of the franchise.

Speaker 3 (08:46):
YEA.

Speaker 4 (08:47):
And in the division where Jacksonville, Trevor Lawrence has completely
underdelivered up until this point in Indianapolis, we've joked about,
how you know, is it Daniel Jones or Anthony Richardson?
That team's sort of in disarray, And then you said
Houston took a major step back last year when you

(09:09):
thought CJ. Stroud and that crew had it together. I
still think they're good, but don't be shocked. Our buddy
Towey from The Herd yesterday was saying, how don't be
surprised if that is a surprising team this year, that
they're better than you thought. Tennessee cam Ward, no one's
talking about him. And listen, Nashville is a great city.

(09:29):
For some reason, it doesn't pop with NFL talk. It's
just one of those great cities. They're building a new stadium.
It's the bachelorette capital of the world. But for some reason,
I think it's safe to say, Danny Ryan, I think
everyone in this room would agree that the Tennessee Titans
are not a very They might be one of the
lower talked about teams in the NFL. Ever, at least

(09:52):
do you know that. I mean, was there ever a
time where people were really talking about the Titans.

Speaker 6 (09:56):
No, And in all the power rankings you see the
Titans are in the bottom of five of the list.

Speaker 4 (10:00):
So there's sort of something to be said about the
low expectation, the low amount of buzz. It leaves you
the opportunity to create your own buzz, because if there
was all this big hype like a Caleb Williams or
a Trevor Lawrence or something like, then when you don't
deliver right away, people start saying, Oh, they're not that good?

Speaker 3 (10:20):
Is it a bust situation?

Speaker 4 (10:22):
All that? I think cam Ward should be tickled pink.
I don't even know what that means, but he should
be so thrilled means flattered. Yeah, he should be so
pumped that no one seems to care. It's true. It
takes some pressure off the situation. Listen, gives you room
to grow a little bit, because you know I can.

(10:43):
If he delivers, the money will be there. He'll make
that in that second contract. If he's still around, he'll
make the money. That's not the issue. He'll get the endorsements.
He'll be a hero to that region of NFL fans
if he delivers. But the idea of going into your
rookie sea as a number one pick and there's no

(11:04):
spotlight on you, that is comforting as could possibly be.
And what was Danny g saying in our pre show meeting,
Believe it or not, we have meetings about this before
we actually get on the air. I know it's hard
to believe. Plus three fifty for Offensive Rookie of the Year.

Speaker 3 (11:18):
Yeah, yes, sir.

Speaker 4 (11:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (11:19):
And there was a story yesterday expectation. Yeah.

Speaker 6 (11:22):
This ye, this was a quote from him yesterday. I've
grown up watching my dad wake up at four thirty
am doing a job he didn't like. So you know,
if I can't wake up early and do what I
need to do for a job, I do like I
shouldn't be playing football.

Speaker 4 (11:36):
He's got attitude. He's got a good attitude. Yeah, I
like that, he has the right mindset. I know it's
just a stupid viral video, but have you ever seen
that one of him and Shador Sanders thrown with each
other and he saw of Alpha's Oh yeah he Alpha's
Shador Sanders big time. He and he sort of putsh
a door in his place, and I was like, oh,
cam Warret's got some playables. There was actually a counterproductive

(11:58):
I think for Shudor Sanders at the time to practice
with him and made him look bad. So we shall
see your thoughts on cam Ward.

Speaker 3 (12:06):
I think breaking audio news we have it.

Speaker 4 (12:09):
Ye.

Speaker 3 (12:11):
Tag oh vall yah, He's very.

Speaker 4 (12:16):
Good, very good. One more time, one more time from
President Trump.

Speaker 3 (12:24):
Tua tag oh vall, Yah, it was so awkward to
see you.

Speaker 6 (12:29):
Yet now if you get to see the clip of it,
Vance Vance is standing nearby and he's just trying not
to crack up.

Speaker 3 (12:38):
I'll be honest, jd.

Speaker 4 (12:39):
Vance is like your budd's standing behind you when you're
like doing a speech and he and he knows you're
messing up. Honestly, I want to hear Trump say all
of his best friends in sports names like Yannis's name,
Abody News Yesterday, Henny Swarries. I want to hear everybody's

(13:01):
and he said to it just needs to stay healthy.
I know some deep analysis that is funny. And and
by the way that I don't know what was better
that or could be no say in a navy and
yesterday for water heaters.

Speaker 3 (13:11):
I mean that's how me and my boys say.

Speaker 4 (13:14):
But you know, I will say, there's no more daunting
feeling if you were given a name like that. Have
you ever seen some of those graduation fails where this
poor man or woman spent four plush years in college
or grad school and they walk up together diploma and
they butcher their names or say something like my week

(13:36):
inappropriate yeah, it's the weakest, so bad. So they shout
out to to uh what was it again, to uh
tag oh Vallia, well hag. In Trump's defense, it's not
an easy one, which is why I only say to
just stuck to. I honestly think that UFC names might

(13:56):
be tougher than hockey names nowadays because everyone says wrong. Everybody, bro, yeah,
it could be yeah, they're they're at time. I will
never say anything other than could be, yeah, it could be.
There are athletes that I have purposely have never even
went there purposely, yeah, because you don't want to be that,
and you're right about that, Kuld. You know, if you

(14:17):
watch UFC on the weekends, which a lot of guys
do what we do, there'll be times where the announcer,
the ring announcer, and the backstage reporter say the fighter's
name three different ways. We experienced that not too long
ago with better bev and Bible, Bevil, bivil, oh Dmitri, Bivil, Bible,

(14:40):
bibl Dmitri Is it bivl, Bible or bevel? When I
tell you were if we were at the fight in Vegas,
and every single promoter, trainer, everyone's like yeah, and at Bevil, Bevell,
Bible and is it bijeon or bijeon? Well we all
know that now, Yeah, I have a question and then
we'll move on. When if someone corrects you on their

(15:03):
name pronunciation, is it then rude to go back to
what you were saying anyway? Like Bjeon Robinson told the world, listen,
I know almost star running back. You guys all know me,
but for real, it's not Bjon Robinson, it's Bajon. Do
you think there's gonna be a concerted effort for real,
for everyone to be for broadcasters, broadcasters respectfully try to

(15:25):
make those adjustments. I was talking to and I think
the fan, yeah, you might know it, but it takes
it like how long did we say.

Speaker 6 (15:34):
Terrell Owens and it's Terrell Owens or Tyrod Taylor?

Speaker 3 (15:38):
Yeah, Rod Taylor.

Speaker 4 (15:40):
Yeah, there's still a part of you that it goes
off like, oh, it's it's to Rod.

Speaker 3 (15:44):
He let it go too long, right?

Speaker 4 (15:46):
I think if you let it go, if you you
respectfully try to make the adjustment, nan if you if
you if you get wind of it, and everyone else
still says it the wrong way, Like the example I
just us in the hallway. I was talking to uh
Burschite the Ershonader burs that h you know runs this
place when Mike's not here. Burscheeto Bursch and Ian, we

(16:07):
were talking about one of our favorite shows. Can we
know Dexter Resurrection? What dork Passenger, that's Martin. It's a
great show. Dexter's so freaking good. I was talking about
how it's so good on Paramount Plus and Ian like
a lot of people said, man, you know Dexter was great,
but I you know, it hasn't been the same since
the Trinity Killer. And I said, oh, John Lithgow because

(16:31):
the world knows him as John Lithgow.

Speaker 3 (16:33):
Yeah. He told us straight up, not the name drop.

Speaker 4 (16:35):
He was on our show and he's like, you know,
it's actually Lithgo, but everyone says Lithgow. So you know,
we had that experience too, not the name drop, but
we had Chad Kruger on our show from Nicol Blatt
Nicol Black.

Speaker 3 (16:48):
That's not how he's saying.

Speaker 4 (16:50):
No, he told us it's really Nicol Black. Chad Krueger
is spelled Kroger, but he's like, nah, I mean it's
it's Kruger.

Speaker 3 (16:59):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (17:00):
A lot of people think it's Nickelback's Chad Kroger and
the other one this is actually for real. You probably
had a crush on her in the nineties. Sarah Michelle Galaar.
It's actually it's not Sarah Michelle Geller she is. It's
Sara speak for yourself. Bro I thought you're talking Carmen Electra.
Oh that's Electroal so hey, you know, props to Jehan

(17:24):
Robinson Tua. And again we go back to cam Ward,
wishing him the best in his rookie campaign. And again
I always think the best situations are those where you
have the work ethic and you you're gonna put all
the effort in, but there's no pressure going under the radar.

Speaker 3 (17:43):
Here is going to work to his advantage.

Speaker 4 (17:45):
I think no doubt because there's no there's no added pressure,
no high expectations going booing to get him at a
look at Caleb Williams, as much as I respect him,
and I think he's going to be a star. Danny
g You remember Bears fans, we're talking about his rookie
year like post season baby, Because when you oversight, you're
only gonna underproduce.

Speaker 6 (18:03):
For the most one, not not just Chicago fans. You guys,
exactly a year ago, you guys were leading just about
every show we had with Caleb Williams talk.

Speaker 4 (18:11):
There was a lot of talk about Caleb. And you
know what, Danny goes back to wrap this up. It
goes back to my favorite lesson I try to remind
all men because this applies to in the workplace, in
the bedroom, on a night out. You never want to
overpromise and underdeliver. You always want to do the opposite.

(18:32):
You always want to, you know, maybe downplay it, underpromise
a little bit, and then over deliver if you you know,
you tell some girl you're in a rocker world in
the bedroom, and then you don't you come up, you know,
like yeah, like people are big talkers, don't realistic expectation
a big talker. And the other one I always love
is like, I see why idiot friends do this. They'll

(18:54):
tell their wife or girlfriend like, yeah, I'll be home soon,
I'm on my way home, and I'm like, you just
ordered another drink. You're not gonna be home, Like, then
you're gonna be late. Say you're gonna be home at
two am, then come home at one am, and I
think you're the greatest. Yeah, so I just missed you, honey,
I had wait a second, you get to stay out
till one. Yeah, so, don't ever overpromise and under deliver

(19:15):
or under producer and cam moore to set up for
success here, I think, I think at least so your
thoughts at Cobe and rich In for Colin on The Herd.

Speaker 3 (21:57):
A couple of weeks from now.

Speaker 4 (21:58):
Kids out here on the West Coast go back to school,
football is underway, baseball penet races.

Speaker 3 (22:04):
It's just a great time of the year.

Speaker 4 (22:05):
And I was like, August first, I know that's that's
that's something, not just a flipping of the calendar.

Speaker 3 (22:11):
It is the anniversary. Some of us aren't born yet,
pan panamp PanAm.

Speaker 4 (22:16):
Some of us were in diapers, some of us were
grown ups in nineteen eighty one. Some of us looked
like Tattoo from Fantasy Island. That would be me. I
was just a little schoolboy, but I remember that I was.
I was a little I was in diapers, Dan Dan
MTV debuted on this day, forty four years ago, and

(22:41):
of course everyone knows trivia. What's the first song that
ever played? Of course the Buggles video Killed the Radio Star.
But my question always is, well, then, what was the
second song played? Everyone loves to know that fun fact
it it was the Bugles video killed the Radio stow
myself in that mindset. They just played the same videos

(23:02):
over and over again. So was it like Jack and
Diane by John Mellencamp Or was it John Cougar or
John Cougar Mellencamp. No, I'll tell you they'll take the
third McKee. What a pity you don't understand. The third
song was your dad's favorite, Rod Stewart, She Won't Dance
with Me. The fourth song the who Wow. Yeah, they

(23:23):
were very limited on videos at the time back then.
I'll give you a hint. Check what is it The
second song ever played on MTV? Female artist Female artist
rocked out? Was it Pat Benattar correct Mondoa, hit Me
with Your Best Shot? I don't think that song was

(23:44):
out yet. Okay, then it was uh, you better run,
you better have that's it. Yeah, you Better Run by
Pat Benatar. Second song ever on MTVA. Look at you,
Smarty Pitts. You're the best, You're the greatest. You talk
about how no one really talks about cam Ward. He's
the number one draft pick and sort of going under

(24:05):
the radar. Of course he's playing for a non sexy
team for someone that was so big back in the eighties,
No one really talks about Pat Benattar ever, I'm kidding.
Does any do you ever hear any buzz on Pat Benatar?
She was huge. I'll tell you about hit Me with
Your Best Shot? Correct me if I'm wrong. That was
always part of like sports montages in the eighties. Yeah,

(24:26):
and that's not a knock, that's a nod. I'm saying
people should remember and recognize. And that's a great trivia question.
And our dude, Mark Goodman, who we became friends with
at Serious XM, I believe, introduced the first video Mark
great Man, He's the best. Yeah, it was him and
JJ Jackson and Martha Quinn and then of course Bla

(24:49):
Blackwood and then of course, you know, it evolved to
the Adam Curries of the world, and MTV news became
a thing, and then we got Beavis and butt Head.
The evolution was real then, Jersey, when you're pumping your fists,
now you're getting nothing but ridiculousness and nothing.

Speaker 3 (25:03):
Don't forget historic MTV raps, Yo.

Speaker 4 (25:07):
MTV raps, Headbanger's Ball.

Speaker 3 (25:10):
Yeah, I love them.

Speaker 4 (25:11):
I lived it. I wanted my MTV, I had my MTV.
It was a big deal, man, and we celebrate forty
four years of it today. I think we need to
get those videos back. I know they did their week
of videos, but they need to do that again.

Speaker 5 (25:29):
Man.

Speaker 4 (25:29):
I just don't understand why they straight away from that.
That was a lot of fun. I mean, we live
in a different world now. No one's sitting down on
their couch watching music videos. Kids will watch clips on
their phone. And the reality is videos are still made
for every song. They still spend the night at every
Every song's got a video, not every song, if you

(25:49):
look up, because it needs to waste the money if
they're not playing them anywhere. If you look up, any
song that charts on the radio on Serious X, iHeart, Odyssey, Spotify, Apple,
Every big song, whether it's the Foo Fighters or Taylor
Swift or Dua LiPo or Sabrina Carpenter or anyone that's

(26:10):
at jingle Ball or iHeart or Coachella. I promise you,
they all have music videos and they just sort of
live in what like vvo form and videos and they're
on YouTube essentially.

Speaker 3 (26:22):
So video killed the radio star. Yeah, you.

Speaker 4 (26:28):
Radio start years ago and it was a big freaking deal, man,
it was d has a deal now. Oh, MTV right now, Yeah,
is trying to decide if it introduce just for men. MTV
is definitely using just for men if MTV was a woman.
They're contemplating their botox options. Absolutely. MTV's got a little

(26:49):
forty fag to it.

Speaker 3 (26:50):
Now.

Speaker 4 (26:50):
MTV is thinking if that should get a Mommy makeover. Yeah,
but hey, it's a lot of fun. But even though
it's still around, it was tuning into MTV the way
they used to.

Speaker 3 (27:02):
MTV forty four years old. Today.

Speaker 4 (27:05):
All right, you want to go to the headline news
with Danny g Let's see what's doing.

Speaker 3 (27:10):
Let's do it. No, no heard on the news.

Speaker 2 (27:13):
This is the herd Line News.

Speaker 6 (27:17):
All right, guys, you started off the show talking about
how baseball is having a moment baseball, Well, a random
Thursday night game between the Braves and Reds turned into
a historic thriller in the eighth inning, do you hear
about this?

Speaker 4 (27:29):
At eight runs at the top end, bottom.

Speaker 6 (27:31):
Run and the Braves broke a three to three tie
by exploding for their eight runs, only to allow the
Reds to storm back with eight of their own. And
it's just the third time in Major League history that
both teams scored eight or more runs in the same inning.
According to your friend Elias at the Sports Bureau, that's insane.
It was also the third time in the expansion era
that two teams combined for sixteen or more hits in

(27:52):
the same inning, with each team posting eight. The Braves
went on to win a wild one twelve to eleven
and ten innings.

Speaker 4 (27:59):
I love thoselous stats that they're able to figure out.
Did you see that one yesterday with the Yankee game?
The Yankees are the only MLB team in the modern
era to erase a deficit in the eighth, erase a
deficit in the ninth, an, erase a deficit in the
tenth and then win in the eleventh. I mean, that's
just I love it. That's pretty cool. That's a pretty

(28:20):
cool gamer. It just adds to the excitement. Danny g
to answer eight runs with eight more of your own essence, Sam,
But then you lose.

Speaker 3 (28:27):
They ended up losing.

Speaker 4 (28:28):
They still for the fans, what an exciting moment.

Speaker 6 (28:31):
Yeah, it's a lot of offense. That's what we want.
I let's move to the NFL. Covino one of your
favorite quarterbacks, Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield. Uh oh,
contusion on his throwing hand. I think that's a fancy
way to say a bruise. He sat out practice at
training camp today in Tampa. Bucks coach Todd Bowles told
reporters that Mayfield's hand is sore. It's ben so, he

(28:53):
says for the last couple of days from a couple
of factors which all added up, he's not concerned that
it's a long term injury.

Speaker 4 (29:00):
You know what's so funny, You're so right. I just
looked it up to confirm. Why do they use the
word contusion. It's really just a bruce is that?

Speaker 5 (29:11):
Why?

Speaker 1 (29:11):
Like?

Speaker 3 (29:11):
Why can't we why do we have to look that up.
I don't know.

Speaker 4 (29:15):
Yeah, I guess, so you knew CONTUSI with Bruce, Yes,
what I think that was common knowledge. I did not
know we get contoos digos.

Speaker 3 (29:24):
Yeah, I guess.

Speaker 6 (29:25):
All right, let's uh, let's lastly talk about Baltimore. Lifelong
Ravens fan. Native of Baltimore, Michael Phelps, your favorite swimmer,
he plans to help give swimming lessons to the Ravens.
They requested his help on social media. Ravens cornerback Marlon
Humphrey posted a video with the request for the Olympic
Icon on IG and X. The video features Humphrey and

(29:47):
other teammates inside the brand new recovery pool at the
under Armour Performance Center there in Owings Mills, Maryland. The
twenty three time goldwinner. Phelps responded the other day on
IG by writing back, I got.

Speaker 3 (29:59):
Y'all, let's do it.

Speaker 4 (30:01):
That's cool man, that I mean, if you're gonna get
swimming lessons. I had some random, mean, middle aged woman
give my kids swimming lessons. Michael Phelps a lot cooler.
Michael Phelps way cooler. In fact, he's a guy. You
know how we often forget about Joey chestnut when we
talk about goats. Yeah, forget about Phelps a lot. He's
thet yea he is, he has to be in that conversation.
I'm gonna add, by the way, I'm going to add

(30:23):
that to the list of dumb things about myself, the
fact that I didn't know that Contusia. I didn't know
it was just simply let me pull out my scroll
and added.

Speaker 3 (30:31):
To the list. How did I not know that? Danny?

Speaker 4 (30:34):
I wanted to add one thing to your go for it,
your herd line news more of a question less news.
So when you see these trade deadline moves happen yesterday
and the day before, you know, last couple of days,
a lot of action, when do you want and expect
the guys to debut for your new team immediately? Is
it almost like how I feel like, if you're capable,

(30:56):
Danny g right now, if you're capable of being in
New York five hours from right now, or you're capable
from going from Seattle to Miami in a you know,
five six hours, is it crazy to expect like for
the Mets? Is it crazy for me to think Cedric
Mullen should be on tonight's lineup?

Speaker 6 (31:12):
No, It's a long season. Every game matters right now.
After the All Star break, you want to see your
new star or even non star player show up the
very next day. I'd say, one day, did.

Speaker 4 (31:23):
You see that the Yankees made the trade for Jose
Caballerro yesterday while they were playing him? And he had
a sago bido his former team there, and then I guess, say,
what's up to his new teammates right after? Is that
why he winked at uh Aaron Boon? No, but that's
so weird, you know, it's so awkward when times that
happen this year. Yeah, but I but I do wonder, like,
for instance, does but I expected him to be in

(31:45):
like immediately.

Speaker 3 (31:46):
Like Johannio Suarez. Is he already pound around the Mariners?

Speaker 4 (31:50):
Or do we give these guys like an odd grace period,
like we know you got to like I mean, back
up your stuff and all that. But you know he
takes a second to acclimate, even McMahon's the other day,
like he could finally breathe once he got that walk
off because he was playing so tight and so nervous,
Like it does take a second to get comfortable. I
get it, But my point is, you're a midjor league
baseball player. You're making a ton of money, and I

(32:13):
know that's not the I hate to be the guy
that uses that excuse, but you could have someone help
pack up your place. You can hire a moving company.
I'm sure your wife or family very supportive. Fifty something
games left, Yeah in here.

Speaker 3 (32:25):
Right in my mind.

Speaker 4 (32:25):
Like I have not released the lineup yet, but I
can only imagine that. I bring it up because it's
my team. But I would imagine Cedric Mullins is in
the Mets lineup tonight, I think, so it has to be.
I mean, well, anyway, thank you, ex thank you, Danny G.

Speaker 3 (32:37):
Yeah, that is your herd Line News.

Speaker 2 (32:38):

I thought this was great because Cunningham Sophie Sophie Stunningham
said that if you don't think Kaitlin Clark's the face
of the WNBA, you're stupid as F. So we ask
Givino said it came up with other things in sports

Busted Brown. Two quick notes. Did you see they announced
where the MLB All Star Game is going to be
in twenty twenty seven, and it's an awesome, awesome manson.

Speaker 3 (35:54):
I guess, yeah, Las Vegas ol be ready.

Speaker 4 (35:58):
There's no team there yet, but they won't be ready
or anything, so they get you're hyping it up.

Speaker 3 (36:01):
It's so often the pack.

Speaker 4 (36:02):
No. I think it's just a really cool, cool stadium choice.
All right, go ahead, just tull me. It hasn't been
there since nineteen ninety. That's a big hint, because how
many stadiums are still around then? We're around in nineteen ninety, right,
Wrigley Field in Chicago. Baseball All Star Game will head

(36:24):
back to Wrigly and they said Wrigleyville will be stepped
up to a new level, so that nineteen ninety All
Star Game is that where they had that big ceremony
for all the legends very well could.

Speaker 3 (36:34):
Have been looked that up.

Speaker 4 (36:35):
But for the first time in thirty five years, well
it'll be thirty seven years, the Baseball All Star Game
will head to Wrigley in Chicago.

Speaker 3 (36:43):
And what's pretty cool about that.

Speaker 4 (36:45):
You know, Wrigleyville's got all the cool bars and restaurants
are saying over the next two years now, they're going
to really try to make sure that area is even
more ready for a great All Star Week.

Speaker 6 (36:55):
And that new Vegas Stadium that the A's are expected
to play, and it's going to be ready for opening
Day twenty twenty eight.

Speaker 4 (37:03):
There we go, all right, Yo, So remember I told
you yesterday right that I went and got a haircut
and I took the barbershop test.

Speaker 3 (37:13):
They were all buzzing about baseball. Yeah. One of the
vatos there was like, yo, Goino. I was like, what's up, man.

Speaker 4 (37:20):
He's like yo, Bro, He's like, your baseball's popping right,
And I'm like, sure is man.

Speaker 3 (37:25):
He's like, yo, man, you think my Dodger is gonna
make it? I'm like yeah, probably.

Speaker 4 (37:28):
Unfortunately he's like, yo, I want to ask you, bro,
He's like, Yo, Doug know what I love. By the way,
when you do go to a place like this, when
when when people find out you're on Fox Sports or
ESPN or NFL but the whole No, he's just talking
about but I'm saying that there's that there's a sense
of like all of a sudden, they think your opinion
means something.

Speaker 3 (37:45):
I was finding funny about who's gonna win the Super Bowl.
I'm like, to be right. The barbershop is a great
example of the Jim.

Speaker 4 (37:50):
If you start talking to people my softball buddies, they'll
ask me like I have any more insight? Like, Yo, yo, bro,
I know you work for Fox Sports. Who do you
think you should pick him my NFL draft? You gotta
feel like you do right, like you know, little something
es yeo bro. He like, Yo, did I see you
at the home run derby on TV? Were you there
in Atlanta? I'm like, yeah, that was us, man, our

(38:12):
home mission was to get on TV. He's like, yo,
I saw the camera zoom in and you were going wild.
He's like, I wasn't sure, man. He's like, yo, but
I saw you like a few times, and yes, we
were on TV for the All Star Game, the Home
Run derby. We were in the dugout. We had a blast.
I really interviewed Zach Brown because he did the anthem.
If you missed any of it's all on Fox Sports
Radios YouTube page. But we were there in the home

(38:35):
run derby. And it's just something you gotta plan ahead
with your family or friends to go to. So Rich
is right, Chicago, let's go. It's a fun time for
that one. Now before we get to again w NBA
player or Chipotle worker, before you get to weekend hobnob.
But we'll talk more NFL. Just the thought and again

(38:57):
it's there's more to this than Hey, the Golden Bachelor.
But you know the new Golden Bachelor is former la
Ram Mellowens. Okay, he was named the Golden Bachelor. He's
sixty six years old. Again, played in the NFL. Are
you watching Bachelor in Paradise, by the way, I am not.
And they're mixing the young people with the old people.

(39:20):
Oh man, some daddy stuff going on at some saddie action.
I mean, I haven't seen any hookups, but it's getting
a little flirty. Well, I'll say this. The guy's a
sixty six year old athletic dude.

Speaker 3 (39:34):
Look at him.

Speaker 4 (39:35):
He played in the NFL, So he's like one of
those like in shape sixty somethings, right, yeah, admir bole right.

Speaker 3 (39:39):
I mean sixty something today is like fifty something.

Speaker 4 (39:42):
And I don't know if he saw, like a few
weeks ago, this guy got a lot of crap because
he told producers keep him mind, he's sixty six. If
you try casting any woman over sixty, I'm immediately eliminating them,
and people are like, how vain, how wrong, and it
just goes that's the show, Like is he not allowed
to have preferences?

Speaker 3 (40:02):
So he has.

Speaker 4 (40:03):
Since I just saw an update, he sort of pulled
back that.

Speaker 3 (40:07):
Comment a little bit.

Speaker 4 (40:07):
He's like, right, well maybe not age, but he said, quote,
try to stay away from artificial hips and wigs and
you know that kind of stuff. So he's saying, I'm
an active sixty six year old, I want a younger woman.
Since when is preference something we're not allowed to have anymore?
Anytime the word preference is brought up, I know it

(40:28):
brings up agism, sexism, racism, everything when you just have
a preference. We sort of touched on it yesterday with
our bonus Show. You know, like, it's okay to think
Sydney Sweeney's hot. It doesn't make you a Nazi. That yeah,
that it's it's she has good genetics. Do you not
think she has good genetics? I'm okay to have preferences.

(40:48):
I saw some ass. I saw some ask clown on
the news saying that we should stray away from things
like the term good genetics, because what does that mean.
I'm like, I don't know, Like Lebron James Goode, he's
a beast that, yeah, he deserves a wedgie. That's Sidney Sweeney,
she's hot, good genetic probably lacks good genetics, are all right?

Speaker 3 (41:08):
So you're trying to tell me.

Speaker 4 (41:09):
And by the way, when you say Sidney Sweeney's hot,
that doesn't mean she's the.

Speaker 3 (41:12):
Only hot person. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (41:13):
But but what I'm saying is the fact that you're
not allowed to have preferences, and something like the phrase
good genetics could be misconstrued.

Speaker 3 (41:21):
You're trying to.

Speaker 4 (41:22):
Tell me black, white, Hispanic Asian. You're trying to tell
me show, Hey, Otani doesn't have good genetics. You kind
of tell me that to uh tag oh Daliah doesn't
have good gens. Tag. So it's just it's just, you know,
a reminder here on Covino rich As we filmed for

(41:42):
the Herd. So many of the headlines you see, you
really got to ask yourself. We mentioned this yesterday, is
anyone really mad? Because the answers probably know, Oh, people
are up in arms. No one's usually up the person
that is mad. Do you really care about that person? Yeah?
And if it's some weirdo that's mad, who cares about
that weirdo? You're allowed to have preference. The end, I
had more convenient rich In for Colin. Next on the
