Speaker 4 (02:16):
Last week we talked to Gary Vee at the Super
Bowl for over Promised and Joey chestnutt again over promised
us on Fox Sports Radios YouTube page. A lot of
our videos are there, so as a resident Yankees fan again,
I've always been cool with tradition. I love it, the
Pinstripe pride, the Yankees way. But I think we have
come to a point where it's like, all right, now
(02:37):
you're getting in the way of the confidence of these players.
And you can say that's silly, but everybody wants to
feel their best. If you think it's just me, well
Cavino saying, you know, these type of things matter, I'll
name job.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
I'm a Niners fan.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
I remember having a really good conversation with Jerry Rice
once and Jerry Rice told me how important it was
for him to have his uniform just the right fit,
to have his towel hanging out just the right way.
To you know, you've heard baseball players say they got
a barber on stand by. Every baseball team has a
barber on standby to make sure everyone's face is tight,
(03:12):
everyone's beard is just big poppy and a lot of
those guys had el Mons throw in ninety nine. Yeah,
they would travel with the team and with the players
just so that they feel good. You look good, feel good,
feel good, play good, play good.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
They pay good, right.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
And you're paying Devin Williams almost ten million dollars almost
ten million dollars a year to close out to be
that intimidation factor for your baseball team. And then you're
telling him to shave his like intimidating, cool looking beard.
That's what makes him look cool and current. You're asking
a young thirty year old man to shave his face
(03:47):
and look non intimidating. Why because George Steinberger said it
fifty years ago, right, So again, I'm not saying that
you throw the rules away. There is a sense of
professionalism I do believe in in baseball and in life.
So I think think you get the scruff cone you
compromise here, and That's where I'm at.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
If you have any thoughts on it, let us know.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
At eight seven seven For the her it sounds ridiculous,
But why would you not want the players that you're
paying to feel their best, to feel confident, to feel intimidating,
to feel like the man.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
Look at the NBA. What is a big part of
the NBA.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
The guys walk in through the tunnel, right, they get
to show their drip, their outfit, their wardrobe. You know
who had drip in the NBA this week, Jimmy Butler. Yeah,
they're a little bit of a dribble. I don't know
if you saw that, but he had an accident in
his bontalone. But no, you know, style to say that
(04:43):
style doesn't matter. It's a different world. I'm among young
men that are professional athletes trying to you know, meet women,
have fun, be You know, these guys are millionaires.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
They're trying to live it up.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
And you're telling the guy, yeah, totally abandon your cool
look and clean shave like a baby boy. So the
the ghost of George Steinbrenner is happy. Should your confidence
rely on something as silly as this? No, of course not.
But if it helps them feel a little better, leave
it alone. Now, this also translates to something else in
(05:14):
the everyday life, right, not just with athletes. So again
your thoughts eight seven seven four The Herd Devin Williams.
Is he the guy that inspires this change? I think
as Yankees fans are baseball fans, people need to speak
on be like, yo, let this dude have some sort
of facial here.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
He looks like a laymehoer.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
Sounds ridiculous, but I could totally get behind this change
for the Yankees now in fact, I in fact, as
a Mets fan, I hope they keep this and Devin
Williams struggles and the whole joke is he's not confident,
because that'll just prove what a ridiculous rule this is. Well,
hold on, Let's say underneath that, not Devin Williams per se,
but somebody else right underneath that, there's a weak chin,
(05:54):
there's something going on. He looks like a goofball. He
has razor bumps or something like. What if something that
really takes them out of his game? Mentally you're gonna
make him do that? I don't know, it's counterproductive. You
could say that you got to be mentally tougher than
that if you're gonna be in the bigs. But the analogy,
we know what you are on National TV every day.
You're getting scrutinized all the time. It's a different world
(06:16):
we live in. They would think there needs to be
an adjustment. There would be an analogy at play here
where think of your own job, whatever you do for
a living, driving a truck, working in an office, you're
a barber, you're a doctor, whatever the hell you do.
Imagine if someone dictated in the strictest way unnecessary rules.
I had a buddy that worked at a top forty
radio station, guys playing Katy Perry and Bruno Mars back
(06:38):
in the two thousands, and the boss tried to do
a yeah, I want all the radio hosts to where
they have to wear a collar and pants every day,
and everyone's like, wait, do you mean to play you
know Lady Gaga records. This is before we were streaming
in social media and all that, right, So you.
Speaker 5 (06:58):
Know when that works though, when you're like consistently the
best you know, firm or whatever in the business, you
can set those rules. The Yankees haven't been the Yankees
for almost twenty years now.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Bout that is a great point. And I love to
point out the Cavino to take off his blinders once
in a while that I don't think in a world
where it's a small world small market, big market doesn't
matter the way it used to. Everyone could watch every game.
Social media is a big player in this. I don't
think going to the Yankees has the same pullet did
twenty thirty years ago.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
I don't think. Yeah, and by the way, it's baseball, right.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
I think you got dudes getting dirty, you got dudes
with wads of dipping her mouth. You got dudes, you know,
adjusting their junk for every five minutes, like facial hair.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
I think the Dodgers could get away with that kind
of role right now because they've been consistently great now
for almost a decade. And guys would be like, well,
if that's what I got to do, player with the Dodgers,
like Blake Snell would have like shaved himself hairless to
sign with the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
He doesn't care, you know. And that's a great point.
That's a great point.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
Here's an another great point, I think anyway, because it's
my point, but Rich, we've been at other jobs where
they wanted us to do things their way, and that's
fine because you want to get paid and you're like,
all right, whatever. But there's a different sense of confidence
and chemistry that's created when people allow.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
You, they hire you to be you, and you just
do you like you think.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
Devin Williams feels like he's himself right now right, So
again they're forcing him to do something out of his
comfort zone. I don't think that helps. What helps Rich
and I here at Fox Sports Radio helps us feel
great and comfortable is the fact that they let us
be ourselves. I think there's a compromise now. I think
a lot of us listening to Fox Sports Radio on
(08:37):
a personal level are at that stage of life when
it comes to facial hair and you're getting ready tonight
for your hot date Friday night at eight, going on
to date Friday night at eight. She might be a mate,
she not is joon net Bro. Yeah, tonight is your night.
A lot of guys name that movie by the way,
(08:58):
that's twins Man Kick Anything But featuring uh Dan Gladden
and Gary Guyedi. So a lot of the Fox Sports
Radio listeners are at that stage of life where you're
debating your facial hair. Meaning it's a it's a really
tough question, it's really crazy. A little more grays coming in. Yeah,
(09:20):
the grays are coming in, and you're like, do I
shave that? Do I die that what do I do?
And And the question is this, do I want to
look younger and worse? Or older and better?
Speaker 3 (09:34):
Do you want to look?
Speaker 4 (09:39):
Meaning when you shave, you look younger, but you look
worse because now you got this fat, bloated face. You
have got a sausage, all fat and tired, and then
the scruff comes in and it's all gray, looking a
little bit here and it's all patchy, but you look younger.
And people are like, oh, you look younger when you shave.
So do you want to look younger and worse or older?
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Meaning? You let the beard grow in? You got the.
Speaker 4 (10:04):
Draymond green going on, right, you got some grays coming in,
you got the beard, a couple of grays in the whiskers. Right,
you got the old man winter thing going on. Do
you want to look older? But for whatever reason, you
look age appropriate and maybe a little better because you're
covering up more of that fat bloated face that we
were talking about when I saw this clip on Instagram
(10:24):
and TikTok, Yeah, props to Jesse Blockden.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Jesse Blockton's the dude. The do you want to look
younger or worse? Do you want to look younger. We're
older and better older than that.
Speaker 4 (10:34):
It's the dumbest yet applicable question for every guy that's like,
you know, thirty to fifty ish. Let me ask you,
sexy Ryn, you got the beard. If you shave that,
you'd probably look younger. But I could promise you want
to look better. I get carted when I shave. That's
why he stop shaving.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Oh so look how young you look? But do you
look better?
Speaker 4 (10:53):
You know in that second verse of the song they
say younger or fatter, because all of a sudden, when
you shave that facial hair, Yeah, you do realize, Like
even if it's just in your own head, you're like,
look how much face I got?
Speaker 3 (11:03):
Now like a big fat song.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
When Cavino shaves, his head turns into like Ernie or Stewie.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
He gets like a fat face.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
Yeah. Like So it is really that tough question that
you're faced with. And sometimes, like I said, you're getting
ready as Valentine's Day, you want to do what your
woman appreciates the most. Every woman I've asked this question
till some women want to take you out of the game.
And I'll give you a backwards advice like my girlfriend's like, yeah,
(11:31):
I like you when you shave, and I'm like, I
look terrible when I shave. You're trying to take me
out of the game. I think that's what she's trying
to do. I think so. I think most women actually
like when the guy looks a little older, but it's better.
So the question Fox Sports Radio Nation Colin Cowherd Nation,
the Herd, we ask you, do you want to look
(11:51):
younger and worse or older? Because older is not necessarily
a good thing, older and better, younger and worse or
older and better? As the worm goes by, Jesse blocked
in funny video to accompany that, And of course it
ties back to the Yankees and everything else. Rules about
your look, your facial hair, everything. Look at Nick.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
Right on TV.
Speaker 4 (12:12):
Right now, Nick Right of Nazareth, he's got he's got
a sweet, sweet long hair with the suit and the beard, right,
he looks real confident with the facial hair. If he
shaved that beard off, come on, you think he feels
as confident? Yeah, he looks younger.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Hey, look at Yung. He looks but he probably looks worse.
Do you want to look younger and worse or older?
In beds?
Speaker 4 (12:36):
The memes from years back, Remember James Harden, James Soften.
Some guys that facial hair is part of their love,
part of their vibe the end. And I think Devin
Williams of the Yankees, unfortunately for you, I feel like
there's gonna be a curve, a learning curve here where
he probably feels a little lame about himself.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
I think the move right now is to go older
and better and make the most of it, keep it
groomed and look your best for your woman. Promise you,
I promise you. Some people are thinking who cares. I'll
tell you who cares? A cool just turned thirty year
old major league baseball pitcher who's not a bad looking guy,
who's now being told change your look just so you
(13:17):
could come out of a bullpen. So the ghost of
George Steinbrenner is happy. Yes, he I think he's uh,
he's got a girl. He's got a girlfriend. Yeah, we
searched that. I mean, maybe not for long with that
baby face, That's what I'm saying. Like you think a
young dude in a new city wants to be forced
to not look his coolest. So anyway, that's the story there.
And I do think we'll see a change eventually, at
(13:39):
least I hope. All right, Now, here's where I want
to go next with you guys. By the way, I
think it aired a lot of swag to the Yankees.
I think that's what they're missing. Like imagine Aaron Judge
coming out with a cool scruff for a sweet gootee
or something, right. I think it would just give a
lot more of a cooler vibe to the Yankees and
other organizations. But again, and as Boat pointed out, the
(14:00):
Yankees haven't won in a long time. And I know
exactly how long because Caveno, the Yankees won the World
Series the day after your daughter was born. And your
daughter has a boyfriend, and it's Valentine's Day. Yeah, she's fifteen now,
so it's been a minute. And before we move on, Rech,
can I give a minute Valentine's Day love advice? Speaking
(14:21):
of shaving, remember to uh manscape tonight, guys.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
That's your advice.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
Just remember hey, because you never know, maybe you've got
some love to your next Like, listen, I want to
talk about the Eagles parade. We'll get an update of
what's going on, because there's there's something about parades. I
feel like I changed my mind on some aspects of parades.
We'll get to that. Of course, Aaron Rodgers, there's always
updates on him. Where where does he land next? That
was the big debate I think on every TV and
(14:48):
sports radio show, and I think I have the exact answer.
I think everyone is missing the obvious answer as to
where Aaron Rodgers ends up. We'll get to that. In
a cave, in a darkness retreat that is possible. But
I have the answer, where does Aaron Rodgers end up?
And Jason kelcey uh, when he's talking about the early
(15:08):
days of his romance with Kylie Kelsey. He made what
I call a relationship disastrous move, but somehow he stayed
with her. Were you gonna see like faux pas or
some sort of lame pop culture word. No, I think
I was gonna say something like inappropriate for the radio,
So I just had it so religious mistake. So we'll
(15:28):
get to Kelsey, Aaron Rodgers, some NFL all next. Covinon
rich In for Colin on The Herd.

(16:11):
The Herd Live from the tire rack dot Com Studio,
Fox Sports Radio Again. I'm Steve Cavino. That is rich Davis,
and we're gonna talk halftime. We're gonna get you involved.
A lot of people still buzzing, believe it or not,
about halftime. I always started the show. I'm I'm like
one of the few humans on earth that didn't love
(16:32):
it or hate it. Like I was, like, I didn't
love Ketrick Mars halftime, but I didn't hate it either.
I will I will say since since Sunday, though, all
I hear in my head is d and I'm like
shuffling around thinking, I'm Kendrick Lamarm.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Do you want to look younger worse? Yeah, that's in
my head right now.
Speaker 4 (16:56):
And we're also going to talk Eagles, the Eagles Parade
and everything that's going on today.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
But right now, your boy, Rich's boy.
Speaker 4 (17:02):
Aaron Rodgers also a major topic of discussion. I find
him intriguing, I find him interesting. I don't hate on
Aaron Rodgers. Again, I don't love him or hate him.
Maybe I need to make a decision on Aaron.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
Do I love merit them?
Speaker 4 (17:15):
There's things I find I'll oi about. I'm an annoying
but I do, you know, root for greatness and I
don't root against him in that way. I enjoyed a enigma.
I think he's an interesting guy. The documentary on Netflix.
But the question is now that the Jets officially ruled
him out and said, hey, we're moving on without you.
You have to figure out, well, where's his best landing spot?
(17:36):
We'll do what happens. It's Valentine's Day? Can we talk
about what really happened?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Sure?
Speaker 4 (17:43):
Aaron Rodgers and the Jets. You know, when you want
to break up with someone but you just don't have
the Huavos to do it, so you make them do
the breaking up. Yeah, that's sort of what the Jets did. Like, hey, listen,
let's chat. By the way, if you hang out with
us anymore, you can't go on Pat McAfee. You need
to be at every meeting, and there's gonna be new
(18:04):
rules around here. They made it very difficult for Aaron
Rodgers Rogers to want to stay.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
I look at it this way.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
I like your Valentinees Tye in there, because relationships do
work that way unfortunately sometimes. But it's like with some
of our previous employers, Rich around COVID time. We weren't fired.
We weren't, and Rich often says we weren't. I'm like, no,
you weren't. Stop saying that because it's not true. We
(18:33):
were given an offer we couldn't accept, therefore forcing your
hand and forcing you out. You know, we were given
an offer. They were like, yeah, you could still work here,
but we're gonna cut your pay, and uh we're gonna
have instead of five days a week, maybe do one
day a week. And uh oh yeah your producer, yeah
he's not your producer anymore, but yeah, we still want
you here.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
That's getting fired.
Speaker 4 (18:54):
No, that's given an offer you couldn't accept, so you're
forced to move on.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
And that's really what happened with Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Yeah he could have stayed there, but under those conditions, no,
I'll go and struggle with another team. You're saying, if
your boss says, hey, we're gonna give you a pay
cut and a non compete, they're not firing you, but
they're making it very easy for you to be like,
I can't, I can't take it. They're forcing your hands
Aaron Rodgers. That's the Aaron Rodgers Jets scenario. But here's
my thought on Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
Listen.
Speaker 4 (19:19):
Much like everyone, I listen to and watch a heck
of a lot of sports TV and radio, and I
feel like our opinions are the most fun. And I
also think sometimes that the most ridiculous. But sometimes I'll
I'll be surprised that no one comes up with the
obvious answer. Everyone on FS one, ESPN, NFL network, everyone's
(19:39):
talking about where will Aaron Rodgers end up? Some people
are adamant about a stealer seems like the fit, but
the others are saying, I told you, I thought Vikings
would be the most solid move. I hear my answers
just so you know, just for the sake of fun,
I think Vikings would be a good fit because there's
a lot of question marks there, and I think Aaron
Rodgers would want to go to a team that could play,
that could contend. But if he's also or if he
(20:01):
was willing to lose with the Jets, why wouldn't he
be willing to lose with the Giants. It's an easy transition.
He already said he loved New York. I thought he
said a lot of great things about New York City.
I thought he handled that perfectly, his relationship with the
city and everything else. So why not the Giants? Because
if you were frustrated on a three to fourteen team,
(20:25):
what are you just going to go to? Yeah, but
if he was willing to lose with them, why not
be willing to lose in the same state.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
You don't want the same city, you don't want to
lose again.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
So that's why I say Giants and Tennessee are off
the table, because why would you? Why would a guy
I'm giving you two options, Then I'm saying I think
Vikings would be the best. But the Vikings wouldn't want
to bring that into their culture, which is great, the
Vikings culture right now.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
They have a great head coach, I have great front office.
The fans are happy.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
Then you see he follows the Brett Farv pattern of awesome,
Well keep it in your pants then except for that part.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
So the Vikings I don't think they're on the table.
Speaker 4 (20:58):
Steelers I've been reading up on where you know, maybe
Russell Wilson has won over the right people in the
front office and they'll continue to give him a shot.
So all you start running out of teams. I know
the other day on our show, we disqualified twenty eight
of the thirty two teams, where it's like there's no way, right, Yeah,
we actually did. We went through every team, every team.
(21:20):
We tried to be quick about it. So here's what
we came up with. We came up with the one
answer that no one has said, which is nowhere but
not that he retires. The answer is simple. Think of
the personality of Aaron Rodgers. You could argue he's sort
of fall of himself. He's the guy that thinks he's
(21:40):
the smartest dude in the room. That's sort of the
characteristics people tend to say about him. Doesn't it make
sense that Aaron Rodgers doesn't sign with a team and
then knock on would Unfortunately, inevitably, a top level starter
will get hurt in the first quarter of the season,
first four or five games, someone will go down and
he will be a team that's like, man, we have
(22:01):
too much talent to call it a call it a season.
And then Aaron Rodgers comes in to save the day
and go on a playoff run that could be I
don't know, God forbid Herbert high ankle sprain Aaron Rodgers.
Why Dak Prescott gets hurt, or you know, Brock Purdy
comes up limp. Something happens where a top level team
(22:21):
needs a QB and there's Aaron Rodgers just waiting to
be the hero.
Speaker 6 (22:26):
Well, he would have to say, goes, my hero, fucking
be a hero baby, all right, when a hero comes along,
we're all the fine hero the day.
Speaker 4 (22:41):
His name could be Aaron Rodgers and they say that
a hero can save me.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
Yeah, I think I'm out of hero So.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
Yeah, now we could be heroes, just one Aaron Rodgers.
So that's that's where I believe Aaron Rodgers will end up.
I think this that. It just makes too much sense
to me because every other team you did say top
tier team though, So if it's some weak ass, bottom
(23:13):
dwelling team and the starter goes.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
Down, yeah that's not a fit.
Speaker 4 (23:17):
But all the teams we're talking about either have high
hopes in the draft or Aaron Rodgers doesn't fix what
they have. Like Minnesota, to me, if you're gonna move
on from Sam Donald and say hey, you know, listen,
we're not gonna pay him, We're ready for JJ McCarthy,
then they're gonna go straight to McCarthy. There's no point
in substituting. If you've got to pay someone, you might
(23:39):
as well stick with Donald for a couple of years.
That won you fourteen games last year. What are you
fiddling around with Aaron Rodgers for? And you could say, well,
what about the Raiders? The Raiders?
Speaker 3 (23:51):
No, no, no, you're a Raiders guy. Let me tell
you why.
Speaker 4 (23:54):
Ryan, You're in a division with Mahomes, Herobert, Boon, Nicks
and Peyton who seem to have got it together in Denver.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Aaron Rodgers is not this short term fix for you guys.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
Either I don't want him there, okay, culture reasons, or
just everything.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
He's also washed.
Speaker 4 (24:12):
No, I actually agree with that if I was a GM, right,
if you're a GM of a team, do you want
that guy to be the dude that sets the culture
and the tone for your team.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
I'm looking forward.
Speaker 4 (24:27):
Nothing against him, one of the greats, for sure, but
I think that his days are done and I don't
think he could actually be that dude again at this stage,
coming off that injury, you know, two bad seasons. Do
I wish him the best? Do I root for greatness?
Do you root for the old guy to still have
some in him? Of course? But if I'm looking forward
(24:48):
and I got a young team, he's not the guy
I want. So I actually agree with Ryan there. So
my answer is he is in a darkness retreat somewhere
and he is looking elsewhere in the world of broadcasting. Look,
part of not being able to do McAfee and stuff
shows that his interest is there. What is he making
a million dollars a year doing that? Yeah, he'd make
a hell of a lot more doing football. But he knows
(25:08):
the future is in broadcasting or hosting, or doing whatever
else he plans on doing in the future, And I
think that's where he looks forward.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
And he moves forward. I think he's better suited there.
Speaker 4 (25:18):
I hate to say this because it's our world and
I hate I hate the idea that someone could enter
our world and just immediately be successful at it, but
just based on people loving or hating Aaron Rodgers, if
he decided to do a quote like Wellness and Conspiracy podcast,
it would be successful. He'd be making millions of Now,
I'd have an RFK on, He'd have Rogan on, He'd
(25:40):
have it would And by the way, he's realized that
he likes doing that and that's kind of who he
is now and he loves to live in his truth.
So right, Aaron Rodgers could do that. But I'm telling
you the answer is simple. He doesn't start the season
with someone. Aaron Rodgers stays in shape and he's on
standby waiting to just say hi, yeah, But don't you
(26:00):
have to be mentally there. Aaron Rodgers would argue that
he's the most mentally ready guy. That's his whole vibe,
Like I'm you know, he's mentally social. The prediction, if
you're listening between the lines here is he doesn't play.
Speaker 3 (26:15):
He sits it out.
Speaker 4 (26:17):
Someone goes down has to be a good, good team,
contending team a mid season and then they pull him
out and they're like, hey, you we need you. Honestly,
it's like, again, I don't want to I'm certainly not
trying to jinx anyone, but let me say his ego
getting away and say, look, you don't want me before,
but now you want to know. I think I think
playing hero would be so perfect for his personality. Let's
(26:39):
say Anthony Richardson, and again I'm not wishing injury on
any of these guys, but it's inevitable that someone will
go down. Let's say the Cults are leading in otherwise
crappy division. You know, they're down six and four in
the AFC South ten games in and oh no, they
go down.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
We don't want to throw away the season. Aaron Rodgers
to the rescue. Dallas rebounds. The Cowboys are, you know,
again like five and four and you know, battling for
a wild card. Dak is down. They're not gonna go.
Cooper Rush ain't doing anymore.
Speaker 5 (27:11):
That's That's the team that I think makes the most
sense with what you're saying here, is that's something Dallas
would absolutely do.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
Jerry Jones, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5 (27:19):
Jerry would love that. That'd be headlines for Dallas for months. Yeah,
he would absolutely do that.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
So you're right, he sounds like a cowboys move right,
sell some tickets.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
How about after the circus?
Speaker 4 (27:28):
Yeah, after that weird vibe of big names and people
just come to see and you still make money out.
I was talking to our dude, Jonas from Two Pros
and a Cup of Joe, and he's like, Aaron Rodgers
to him, makes sense for my forty nine Ers, And
I said, yeah, I get it.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
I I like Brock. I don't. I don't think Brock's
worth fifty five to sixty million a year.
Speaker 4 (27:50):
I like, I like Rock making forty five to fifty
million dollars a year. But there is a part of
you that's like, with Kyle Shanahan's system, does it make
sense to say, Aaron Rodgers two year deal and then
the forty nine Ers draft a quarterback that suits Kyle
Shanahan's system. Now you're pivoting completely away from the success
(28:12):
you had with Purty the last couple of years. But
that's that's one of the few situations that would be
a ballsy chance that who knows, well, it's like childhood team.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Right, so that's the only Well, yeah, that's.
Speaker 4 (28:25):
Actually kind of cool, much like the old old school
NFL films.
Speaker 3 (28:28):
You make the call Fox Sports Radio Nation.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
What do you think of Rich's exact answer on what
happens to Aaron Rodgers?
Speaker 3 (28:36):
Well, it's time for bo filling in with the herd
line news. No, no, turn on the news.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
This is the herd line news.
Speaker 5 (28:47):
Well, guys, as the great Ben Maller says, the better
story is usually in the losing locker room. We're gonna
talk about Kansas City Chiefs here for a second. The
Athletic is reporting that the Chiefs have given titend Travis
Kelsey a soft deadline of March fourteenth to make his
decision on whether he's going to return or retire from
the NFL.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
You know it's not a good look, Bow And I
know it's social media.
Speaker 5 (29:09):
I Uh, the.
Speaker 4 (29:09):
More I watched the videos, I wouldn't be too upset
if he retired.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
I mean, he's my boy and everything, but thank you.
Speaker 4 (29:15):
I could have blocked for me a few times where
he was just standing there and I took a lot
of hits running around for my life as he just
like watched Hey, Patrick, how do you feel about your
dad fighting John Rocker devastated. I'm mortified. I'm trying to
put a stop to it. Bo. I know it's social media,
but have you seen those isolated clips on certain plays
where Kelsey literally just stood there?
Speaker 5 (29:35):
Yeah, the one where Patrick is scrambling around running for
his life and then if the hole didn't happen, that
could have been a fumble and the Eagles would have
recovered it. That's just not a great look.
Speaker 3 (29:46):
And it looks so lazy, it looks, yeah, so bad.
Speaker 5 (29:49):
He didn't sound like someone that's that's ready to come
back when he was doing his podcast with Jason Kelsey,
so I wouldn't be shocked if he hangs him up.
Speaker 4 (29:57):
I know it sounds ridiculous because oh and if he does,
he goes out, oh yeah, a good note. But he
never stunk really. So he's a three time he's a
three time super Bowl champion. Yeah, he's dating the most
popular woman on planet Earth. He's an automatic Hall of Famer.
He's an automatic Hall of Famer, and he has one
hundred million dollar podcast.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
I hate to say he doesn't really need the NFL.
Speaker 5 (30:17):
Just go, but I do think when push comes the
show and I think he's going to do what his
brother did, come back for a year because nobody wants
to go out losing the Super Bowl. Give him one
more run, back, one and more run. But I don't
know if they're going to be that great next year. Yeah,
teams that were great the Los Angeles Dodgers. Obviously they
won the World Series. Manager Dave Roberts is optimistic that
he and the team will be able to reach an
(30:38):
agreement on a contract extension before the end of spring training.
Speaker 4 (30:42):
You know, we talked to the very controversial yet likable
to us Kurt Chilling, was on our show Radio Row
in New Orleans.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
Some people think he's a maniac.
Speaker 4 (30:51):
I found him to be a fun conversation either way,
fucking baseball come fun baseball conversation. He said that Dave
Roberts from the minute he met him. He said, like,
I sort of knew this guy has the makeup of
a leader. Yes and there he even said, there's never
been a more momentum swinging moment than when Dave Roberts
stole that base in four So you know what you know,
(31:13):
both since I moved out here to Los Angeles and
I hear you and Danny g and Monty and all
the Dodgers fans always talking. Dave Roberts is one of
those guys you love to hate once in a while,
but at the end of the day, he's your guy.
Speaker 5 (31:23):
He went from being fired when they were down to
one of the padres to lifetime contract. People love the
two World Series wins like easy. Yeah, he's he's a liver.
He's the best Dodgers manager in history.
Speaker 6 (31:35):
Best.
Speaker 5 (31:35):
He might have the resume to be just the best
manager in baseball history.
Speaker 4 (31:39):
When all a sudden, Shanta will see me. We'll see
where this goes. Because you guys are pretty stacked. Yeah,
do you think the Dodgers have a shot. I know
that we're we're talking way too early, But what's the
record one hundred and eighteen wins by the Mariners?
Speaker 5 (31:50):
No yet, No, it's one six one sixteen. Yeah, I
think I think it's one sixteen. And they're not They're
going to spend all of August running out Triple A
lineups because they're gonna have clinch the n OL West
by then, because nobody else and that division is serious
about competing.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
I mean, they very well could be like one twelve
and fifty.
Speaker 5 (32:05):
Yeah, I think that's probably pretty accurate.
Speaker 4 (32:07):
Yeah, the two thousand and one Mariners one hundred and
sixteen wins. I'm you know, I'm not a big baseball
gambling guy, but I might pound that over.
Speaker 3 (32:15):
Yeah. I think it's like one oh something like that.
I saw a place where it was one O three
and yeah, yeah, that's pretty I really do. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (32:25):
All right, last one here the city of Philadelphia, obviously
celebrating the Eagles championship. The blood alcohol level out there,
uh might just be pure alcohol at this point.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (32:36):
People.
Speaker 5 (32:36):
Later, as the buses were passing by U, the crowd
was very excited to see Cooper de Jean. Uh started
yelling Coop and all that stuff, except they were yelling
at it read blank and ship the other the other
exciting white who had to correct the crowd and say, no,
I'm read white guy. Yeah wrong, white guys. Yeah, how
(32:58):
we were past all that?
Speaker 3 (33:00):
Uh, thank you, bo. That's your Herdline news. Well that's
the news, and thanks for stopping by the.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
Heard Line news.
Speaker 4 (33:08):

and his wife talking about one of their first dates.
It's a little football it's a little advice on romance,
and I know we'll get to that next right here.

You can find us at Covino and rich and please
check our podcast search Covino and rich around Monday through
(35:36):
Friday five to seven on the East right here at
Fox Sports Radio two to four on the West line
from La. But because it's the weekend of love. Before
we get into all the NBA and Jimmy Butler's Doodo
stain and all that other stuff that's going on this weekend,
we got to talk about this Jason Kelsey thing, because
(35:59):
that's what you were talking about Jason and Kylie Kelson.
Speaker 3 (36:01):
I'm not going to lot to you.
Speaker 4 (36:02):
This morning before the show, Kavino and I walked across
the street to Starbucks, had to get at iced coffee
wake up for the Herd, and I said, Covino, you're
a terrible cook, right.
Speaker 3 (36:16):
And he's like, yeah, the worst shout out to Hello Fresh.
That helps.
Speaker 4 (36:22):
I was, sam Bo, have you ever cooked for a
woman in your life or is that just not your style?
Are you a guy that could put together a nice
meal for a woman.
Speaker 2 (36:29):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (36:29):
Yeah, I think so. I've given time and opportunity.
Speaker 4 (36:32):
Yeah, I think it's like a skill that some guys have,
and some guys are clueless in the kitchen, like they
you know, they could grill, but the idea of putting
a meal together, it's just not in their wheelhouse. I mean,
being a dad forced me to learn the basics. And
when I say the basics, I mean like making a
bro I remember Cavino came into work one day and
he was all excited. He's like, bro, I scrambled an
egg for my daughter. I'm like, what do you want
(36:54):
to cook it? I felt like Randy Savage, I'm so
proud of myself. You're cooking at least barely. Doesn't that
just they just said no and then they want the
Dino Nuggie. So again, I have learned through certain things
like Hello Fresh. Even though we have a code. This
isn't a commercial. I'm serious, we have a code CR
(37:15):
show ten FM CR show ten free meals at Hello
Fresh if you subscribe. It has taught me that it
really is just following simple steps and I can do that,
which means oh, I can cook.
Speaker 3 (37:29):
I guess if I want.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
Taught me.
Speaker 4 (37:31):
But then again, putting together furniture always has instructions or directions,
but we all fail with that. I mean, I could
do that stuff. Look, and I blame my parents. I
bring up the idea, could you cook for a woman
if you had to? Because I saw a headline and
I'm such a dope, I'd be honest with you. I
saw the headline. It said, Jason Kelsey. You don't have
to be honest. We all know that, Jason Kelsey. I
(37:51):
baked air biscuits on my second date with Kylie.
Speaker 3 (37:55):
And I'm like, coveno, even.
Speaker 4 (37:57):
Kelsey could cook. He cooked air biscuits. I'm like, what
are air biscuits? Did I read the article and not cooking?
Apparently that's slang forer he farted?
Speaker 2 (38:07):
What do you mean?
Speaker 4 (38:07):
Apparently we've been doing radio forever you've heard the term
air biscuits.
Speaker 3 (38:11):
Of course, I feel like I invented air biscuits. I
was saying. I was saying, did you know the term
air biscuits meant farted? Maybe? I mean he saw the headline.
Speaker 4 (38:21):
Something called deductive reasoning or having a brain hold on
if you can't figure out the fact that air biscuits
are what that means they'd done.
Speaker 3 (38:27):
If you saw the head deductive reasoning.
Speaker 4 (38:29):
Kel Wait, if you saw the headline Jason Kelcey, and
it's a beautiful picture him and his wife, and it
said he baked her air biscuits.
Speaker 3 (38:34):
When you assume that meant.
Speaker 4 (38:35):
He farted, yes, well anyway, so Rich, honestly, Rich was
like you should be a marath. I'm like why He's like,
even Jason Kelsey could cook and you can't, And like,
what do you mean he could cook? And then we
realized that, oh no, he didn't make anything for his wife.
He's just farting on her all the time. Nothing says
romance on Valentine's weekend like that. Nothing gets a woman
all hot and wanting you more than you farting on her.
(38:57):
Let me tell you now, Jason Kelcey. I wanted to
bring this up because it is Valentine's Day and I
want to give everyone a piece of advice. Jason Kelcey.
He's a man that we could all look and say,
what a guy. Right, He's a man's man, burly man man.
I mean, the best at what he did in the NFL.
He's got a beautiful he got a big heart, beautiful
(39:18):
talented wife. He's a dad of multiple kids, like Jason
Kelsey seems like a good dude, but get this, on
his second date with Kylie, apparently they went ice skating.
Speaker 3 (39:30):
What are they like rocking? And Adrian? Yeah, absolutely is
people standing on ice on most We all know how
Polly feels. Nice is stupid. He's a nice and stupid,
but he loves snow cones. I remember you like Polly.
He likes snow coold by a snow cool machine.
Speaker 4 (39:44):
Right, So he goes ice skating with Kylie on their
second date, and as the story goes, as he's bending
down to put on his ice skates, so it's fart
in front of Kylie on date number two. And you
could say that, oh, Rich, maybe you're just not comfortable
with your wife. I built my wife over ten years now.
(40:08):
I still do not let them rip in front of her.
I feel like it's disrespectful. I feel like, how are
you supposed to keep the romance alive if you're that
guy that's like, honey, pull my finger to me. I
just had to throw it out there. We can move
on in a few but I just had to remind
everyone you're doing no favors to your romance and your
(40:30):
love life. That's a nice way of putting it right,
It's not the most welcoming of gestures, right, like, Hey,
you want to get sexy right now and maybe have
some fun in the funk shop. You can't expect you
you can't expect your wife to think of you in
a filthy and dirty way if you're farting.
Speaker 3 (40:51):
I never understood this for the life of me.
Speaker 5 (40:53):
Well, Kylie Kelsey also must have the patience of an angel,
because I think their first date, like he's told the
story where his teammates to carry him out of the
bar because he passed out drunk.
Speaker 4 (41:04):
No, no, wait, she clearly is the type that is
very understanding or actually is charmed by his behavior. He's
a burly man's man. Oh what a man, What a
mighty good man.
Speaker 3 (41:21):
When is date number three? Yeah exactly.
Speaker 4 (41:26):
But so this is a particular relationship that works in
this way. But if our other associate producer, video guy
Spot was here, he would defend this. Spot does our
videos at Covino and Rich if you want to see
what we do, and Fox Sports Radios YouTube page.
Speaker 3 (41:41):
Along with Elijah.
Speaker 4 (41:42):
Spot is one of those guys that is like an
advocate that there should be no holds barred and there
should be total freedom in the relationship and that they
both do it. And I'm like, yeah, there's a level
of respect that I give and I also want to
return because I also I would be so like almost
mortified and turned off if that happened. Accidents happened that
(42:04):
I understand, Like, Hey, we're humans, Accidents happen.
Speaker 3 (42:08):
Of course, people get sick people.
Speaker 4 (42:10):
You know, but like to be like, you know, doing
that in my presence, I'd be like, what, Yeah, I
don't even do that. As a reminder, on Valentine's Day,
the Romance Live, when I saw the headline that Jason
Kelsey is baking air biscuits, I can't believe you never
heard of him. Then, I just want to remind all
of you you're doing no You're doing no favors for
(42:33):
your love life by just being gross in front of
your significant other because you're thinking about all the things
you may want her to do to you. Guess what's
not gonna help that, cause, honey, the biscuits are done.
Come on, obay something so hey. Just a reminder from
Covinion Rich to you on Valentine's Day. In for the Herd,

(02:37):
you're getting in the way of the confidence of these players.
And you can say that's silly, but everybody wants to
feel their best. If you think it's just me, well
Cavino saying, you know, these type of things matter, I'll
name job.
Speaker 3 (02:50):
I'm a Niners fan.
Speaker 4 (02:51):
I remember having a really good conversation with Jerry Rice
once and Jerry Rice told me how important it was
for him to have his uniform just the right fit,
to have his towel hanging out just the right way.
To you know, you've heard baseball players say they got
a barber on stand by. Every baseball team has a
barber on standby to make sure everyone's face is tight,
(03:12):
everyone's beard is just big poppy and a lot of
those guys had el Mons throw in ninety nine. Yeah,
they would travel with the team and with the players
just so that they feel good. You look good, feel good,
feel good, play good, play good.
Speaker 3 (03:26):
They pay good, right.
Speaker 4 (03:27):
And you're paying Devin Williams almost ten million dollars almost
ten million dollars a year to close out to be
that intimidation factor for your baseball team. And then you're
telling him to shave his like intimidating, cool looking beard.
That's what makes him look cool and current. You're asking
a young thirty year old man to shave his face
(03:47):
and look non intimidating. Why because George Steinberger said it
fifty years ago, right, So again, I'm not saying that
you throw the rules away. There is a sense of
professionalism I do believe in in baseball and in life.
So I think think you get the scruff cone you
compromise here, and That's where I'm at.
Speaker 3 (04:04):
If you have any thoughts on it, let us know.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
At eight seven seven For the her it sounds ridiculous,
But why would you not want the players that you're
paying to feel their best, to feel confident, to feel intimidating,
to feel like the man.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
Look at the NBA. What is a big part of
the NBA.
Speaker 4 (04:21):
The guys walk in through the tunnel, right, they get
to show their drip, their outfit, their wardrobe. You know
who had drip in the NBA this week, Jimmy Butler. Yeah,
they're a little bit of a dribble. I don't know
if you saw that, but he had an accident in
his bontalone. But no, you know, style to say that
(04:43):
style doesn't matter. It's a different world. I'm among young
men that are professional athletes trying to you know, meet women,
have fun, be You know, these guys are millionaires.
Speaker 3 (04:53):
They're trying to live it up.
Speaker 4 (04:54):
And you're telling the guy, yeah, totally abandon your cool
look and clean shave like a baby boy. So the
the ghost of George Steinbrenner is happy. Should your confidence
rely on something as silly as this? No, of course not.
But if it helps them feel a little better, leave
it alone. Now, this also translates to something else in
(05:14):
the everyday life, right, not just with athletes. So again
your thoughts eight seven seven four The Herd Devin Williams.
Is he the guy that inspires this change? I think
as Yankees fans are baseball fans, people need to speak
on be like, yo, let this dude have some sort
of facial here.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
He looks like a laymehoer.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
Sounds ridiculous, but I could totally get behind this change
for the Yankees now in fact, I in fact, as
a Mets fan, I hope they keep this and Devin
Williams struggles and the whole joke is he's not confident,
because that'll just prove what a ridiculous rule this is. Well,
hold on, Let's say underneath that, not Devin Williams per se,
but somebody else right underneath that, there's a weak chin,
(05:54):
there's something going on. He looks like a goofball. He
has razor bumps or something like. What if something that
really takes them out of his game? Mentally you're gonna
make him do that? I don't know, it's counterproductive. You
could say that you got to be mentally tougher than
that if you're gonna be in the bigs. But the analogy,
we know what you are on National TV every day.
You're getting scrutinized all the time. It's a different world
(06:16):
we live in. They would think there needs to be
an adjustment. There would be an analogy at play here
where think of your own job, whatever you do for
a living, driving a truck, working in an office, you're
a barber, you're a doctor, whatever the hell you do.
Imagine if someone dictated in the strictest way unnecessary rules.
I had a buddy that worked at a top forty
radio station, guys playing Katy Perry and Bruno Mars back
(06:38):
in the two thousands, and the boss tried to do
a yeah, I want all the radio hosts to where
they have to wear a collar and pants every day,
and everyone's like, wait, do you mean to play you
know Lady Gaga records. This is before we were streaming
in social media and all that, right, So you.
Speaker 5 (06:58):
Know when that works though, when you're like consistently the
best you know, firm or whatever in the business, you
can set those rules. The Yankees haven't been the Yankees
for almost twenty years now.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
Bout that is a great point. And I love to
point out the Cavino to take off his blinders once
in a while that I don't think in a world
where it's a small world small market, big market doesn't
matter the way it used to. Everyone could watch every game.
Social media is a big player in this. I don't
think going to the Yankees has the same pullet did
twenty thirty years ago.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
I don't think. Yeah, and by the way, it's baseball, right.
Speaker 4 (07:29):
I think you got dudes getting dirty, you got dudes
with wads of dipping her mouth. You got dudes, you know,
adjusting their junk for every five minutes, like facial hair.
Speaker 5 (07:39):
I think the Dodgers could get away with that kind
of role right now because they've been consistently great now
for almost a decade. And guys would be like, well,
if that's what I got to do, player with the Dodgers,
like Blake Snell would have like shaved himself hairless to
sign with the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (07:50):
He doesn't care, you know. And that's a great point.
That's a great point.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
Here's an another great point, I think anyway, because it's
my point, but Rich, we've been at other jobs where
they wanted us to do things their way, and that's
fine because you want to get paid and you're like,
all right, whatever. But there's a different sense of confidence
and chemistry that's created when people allow.
Speaker 3 (08:12):
You, they hire you to be you, and you just
do you like you think.
Speaker 4 (08:16):
Devin Williams feels like he's himself right now right, So
again they're forcing him to do something out of his
comfort zone. I don't think that helps. What helps Rich
and I here at Fox Sports Radio helps us feel
great and comfortable is the fact that they let us
be ourselves. I think there's a compromise now. I think
a lot of us listening to Fox Sports Radio on
(08:37):
a personal level are at that stage of life when
it comes to facial hair and you're getting ready tonight
for your hot date Friday night at eight, going on
to date Friday night at eight. She might be a mate,
she not is joon net Bro. Yeah, tonight is your night.
A lot of guys name that movie by the way,
(08:58):
that's twins Man Kick Anything But featuring uh Dan Gladden
and Gary Guyedi. So a lot of the Fox Sports
Radio listeners are at that stage of life where you're
debating your facial hair. Meaning it's a it's a really
tough question, it's really crazy. A little more grays coming in. Yeah,
(09:20):
the grays are coming in, and you're like, do I
shave that? Do I die that what do I do?
And And the question is this, do I want to
look younger and worse? Or older and better?
Speaker 3 (09:34):
Do you want to look?
Speaker 4 (09:39):
Meaning when you shave, you look younger, but you look
worse because now you got this fat, bloated face. You
have got a sausage, all fat and tired, and then
the scruff comes in and it's all gray, looking a
little bit here and it's all patchy, but you look younger.
And people are like, oh, you look younger when you shave.
So do you want to look younger and worse or older?
Speaker 3 (10:02):
Meaning? You let the beard grow in? You got the.
Speaker 4 (10:04):
Draymond green going on, right, you got some grays coming in,
you got the beard, a couple of grays in the whiskers. Right,
you got the old man winter thing going on. Do
you want to look older? But for whatever reason, you
look age appropriate and maybe a little better because you're
covering up more of that fat bloated face that we
were talking about when I saw this clip on Instagram
(10:24):
and TikTok, Yeah, props to Jesse Blockden.
Speaker 3 (10:26):
Jesse Blockton's the dude. The do you want to look
younger or worse? Do you want to look younger. We're
older and better older than that.
Speaker 4 (10:34):
It's the dumbest yet applicable question for every guy that's like,
you know, thirty to fifty ish. Let me ask you,
sexy Ryn, you got the beard. If you shave that,
you'd probably look younger. But I could promise you want
to look better. I get carted when I shave. That's
why he stop shaving.
Speaker 3 (10:49):
Oh so look how young you look? But do you
look better?
Speaker 4 (10:53):
You know in that second verse of the song they
say younger or fatter, because all of a sudden, when
you shave that facial hair, Yeah, you do realize, Like
even if it's just in your own head, you're like,
look how much face I got?
Speaker 3 (11:03):
Now like a big fat song.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
When Cavino shaves, his head turns into like Ernie or Stewie.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
He gets like a fat face.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
Yeah. Like So it is really that tough question that
you're faced with. And sometimes, like I said, you're getting
ready as Valentine's Day, you want to do what your
woman appreciates the most. Every woman I've asked this question
till some women want to take you out of the game.
And I'll give you a backwards advice like my girlfriend's like, yeah,
(11:31):
I like you when you shave, and I'm like, I
look terrible when I shave. You're trying to take me
out of the game. I think that's what she's trying
to do. I think so. I think most women actually
like when the guy looks a little older, but it's better.
So the question Fox Sports Radio Nation Colin Cowherd Nation,
the Herd, we ask you, do you want to look
(11:51):
younger and worse or older? Because older is not necessarily
a good thing, older and better, younger and worse or
older and better? As the worm goes by, Jesse blocked
in funny video to accompany that, And of course it
ties back to the Yankees and everything else. Rules about
your look, your facial hair, everything. Look at Nick.
Speaker 3 (12:11):
Right on TV.
Speaker 4 (12:12):
Right now, Nick Right of Nazareth, he's got he's got
a sweet, sweet long hair with the suit and the beard, right,
he looks real confident with the facial hair. If he
shaved that beard off, come on, you think he feels
as confident? Yeah, he looks younger.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Hey, look at Yung. He looks but he probably looks worse.
Do you want to look younger and worse or older?
In beds?
Speaker 4 (12:36):
The memes from years back, Remember James Harden, James Soften.
Some guys that facial hair is part of their love,
part of their vibe the end. And I think Devin
Williams of the Yankees, unfortunately for you, I feel like
there's gonna be a curve, a learning curve here where
he probably feels a little lame about himself.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (12:56):
I think the move right now is to go older
and better and make the most of it, keep it
groomed and look your best for your woman. Promise you,
I promise you. Some people are thinking who cares. I'll
tell you who cares? A cool just turned thirty year
old major league baseball pitcher who's not a bad looking guy,
who's now being told change your look just so you
(13:17):
could come out of a bullpen. So the ghost of
George Steinbrenner is happy. Yes, he I think he's uh,
he's got a girl. He's got a girlfriend. Yeah, we
searched that. I mean, maybe not for long with that
baby face, That's what I'm saying. Like you think a
young dude in a new city wants to be forced
to not look his coolest. So anyway, that's the story there.
And I do think we'll see a change eventually, at
(13:39):
least I hope. All right, Now, here's where I want
to go next with you guys. By the way, I
think it aired a lot of swag to the Yankees.
I think that's what they're missing. Like imagine Aaron Judge
coming out with a cool scruff for a sweet gootee
or something, right. I think it would just give a
lot more of a cooler vibe to the Yankees and
other organizations. But again, and as Boat pointed out, the
(14:00):
Yankees haven't won in a long time. And I know
exactly how long because Caveno, the Yankees won the World
Series the day after your daughter was born. And your
daughter has a boyfriend, and it's Valentine's Day. Yeah, she's fifteen now,
so it's been a minute. And before we move on, Rech,
can I give a minute Valentine's Day love advice? Speaking
(14:21):
of shaving, remember to uh manscape tonight, guys.
Speaker 3 (14:25):
That's your advice.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
Just remember hey, because you never know, maybe you've got
some love to your next Like, listen, I want to
talk about the Eagles parade. We'll get an update of
what's going on, because there's there's something about parades. I
feel like I changed my mind on some aspects of parades.
We'll get to that. Of course, Aaron Rodgers, there's always
updates on him. Where where does he land next? That
was the big debate I think on every TV and
(14:48):
sports radio show, and I think I have the exact answer.
I think everyone is missing the obvious answer as to
where Aaron Rodgers ends up. We'll get to that. In
a cave, in a darkness retreat that is possible. But
I have the answer, where does Aaron Rodgers end up?
And Jason kelcey uh, when he's talking about the early
(15:08):
days of his romance with Kylie Kelsey. He made what
I call a relationship disastrous move, but somehow he stayed
with her. Were you gonna see like faux pas or
some sort of lame pop culture word. No, I think
I was gonna say something like inappropriate for the radio,
So I just had it so religious mistake. So we'll
(15:28):
get to Kelsey, Aaron Rodgers, some NFL all next. Covinon
rich In for Colin on The Herd.

(16:11):
The Herd Live from the tire rack dot Com Studio,
Fox Sports Radio Again. I'm Steve Cavino. That is rich Davis,
and we're gonna talk halftime. We're gonna get you involved.
A lot of people still buzzing, believe it or not,
about halftime. I always started the show. I'm I'm like
one of the few humans on earth that didn't love
(16:32):
it or hate it. Like I was, like, I didn't
love Ketrick Mars halftime, but I didn't hate it either.
I will I will say since since Sunday, though, all
I hear in my head is d and I'm like
shuffling around thinking, I'm Kendrick Lamarm.
Speaker 3 (16:50):
Do you want to look younger worse? Yeah, that's in
my head right now.
Speaker 4 (16:56):
And we're also going to talk Eagles, the Eagles Parade
and everything that's going on today.
Speaker 3 (17:00):
But right now, your boy, Rich's boy.
Speaker 4 (17:02):
Aaron Rodgers also a major topic of discussion. I find
him intriguing, I find him interesting. I don't hate on
Aaron Rodgers. Again, I don't love him or hate him.
Maybe I need to make a decision on Aaron.
Speaker 3 (17:14):
Do I love merit them?
Speaker 4 (17:15):
There's things I find I'll oi about. I'm an annoying
but I do, you know, root for greatness and I
don't root against him in that way. I enjoyed a enigma.
I think he's an interesting guy. The documentary on Netflix.
But the question is now that the Jets officially ruled
him out and said, hey, we're moving on without you.
You have to figure out, well, where's his best landing spot?
(17:36):
We'll do what happens. It's Valentine's Day? Can we talk
about what really happened?
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Sure?
Speaker 4 (17:43):
Aaron Rodgers and the Jets. You know, when you want
to break up with someone but you just don't have
the Huavos to do it, so you make them do
the breaking up. Yeah, that's sort of what the Jets did. Like, hey, listen,
let's chat. By the way, if you hang out with
us anymore, you can't go on Pat McAfee. You need
to be at every meeting, and there's gonna be new
(18:04):
rules around here. They made it very difficult for Aaron
Rodgers Rogers to want to stay.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
I look at it this way.
Speaker 4 (18:11):
I like your Valentinees Tye in there, because relationships do
work that way unfortunately sometimes. But it's like with some
of our previous employers, Rich around COVID time. We weren't fired.
We weren't, and Rich often says we weren't. I'm like, no,
you weren't. Stop saying that because it's not true. We
(18:33):
were given an offer we couldn't accept, therefore forcing your
hand and forcing you out. You know, we were given
an offer. They were like, yeah, you could still work here,
but we're gonna cut your pay, and uh we're gonna
have instead of five days a week, maybe do one
day a week. And uh oh yeah your producer, yeah
he's not your producer anymore, but yeah, we still want
you here.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
That's getting fired.
Speaker 4 (18:54):
No, that's given an offer you couldn't accept, so you're
forced to move on.
Speaker 3 (18:58):
And that's really what happened with Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 4 (19:00):
Yeah he could have stayed there, but under those conditions, no,
I'll go and struggle with another team. You're saying, if
your boss says, hey, we're gonna give you a pay
cut and a non compete, they're not firing you, but
they're making it very easy for you to be like,
I can't, I can't take it. They're forcing your hands
Aaron Rodgers. That's the Aaron Rodgers Jets scenario. But here's
my thought on Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 3 (19:18):
Listen.
Speaker 4 (19:19):
Much like everyone, I listen to and watch a heck
of a lot of sports TV and radio, and I
feel like our opinions are the most fun. And I
also think sometimes that the most ridiculous. But sometimes I'll
I'll be surprised that no one comes up with the
obvious answer. Everyone on FS one, ESPN, NFL network, everyone's
(19:39):
talking about where will Aaron Rodgers end up? Some people
are adamant about a stealer seems like the fit, but
the others are saying, I told you, I thought Vikings
would be the most solid move. I hear my answers
just so you know, just for the sake of fun,
I think Vikings would be a good fit because there's
a lot of question marks there, and I think Aaron
Rodgers would want to go to a team that could play,
that could contend. But if he's also or if he
(20:01):
was willing to lose with the Jets, why wouldn't he
be willing to lose with the Giants. It's an easy transition.
He already said he loved New York. I thought he
said a lot of great things about New York City.
I thought he handled that perfectly, his relationship with the
city and everything else. So why not the Giants? Because
if you were frustrated on a three to fourteen team,
(20:25):
what are you just going to go to? Yeah, but
if he was willing to lose with them, why not
be willing to lose in the same state.
Speaker 3 (20:30):
You don't want the same city, you don't want to
lose again.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
So that's why I say Giants and Tennessee are off
the table, because why would you? Why would a guy
I'm giving you two options, Then I'm saying I think
Vikings would be the best. But the Vikings wouldn't want
to bring that into their culture, which is great, the
Vikings culture right now.
Speaker 3 (20:45):
They have a great head coach, I have great front office.
The fans are happy.
Speaker 4 (20:49):
Then you see he follows the Brett Farv pattern of awesome,
Well keep it in your pants then except for that part.
Speaker 3 (20:55):
So the Vikings I don't think they're on the table.
Speaker 4 (20:58):
Steelers I've been reading up on where you know, maybe
Russell Wilson has won over the right people in the
front office and they'll continue to give him a shot.
So all you start running out of teams. I know
the other day on our show, we disqualified twenty eight
of the thirty two teams, where it's like there's no way, right, Yeah,
we actually did. We went through every team, every team.
(21:20):
We tried to be quick about it. So here's what
we came up with. We came up with the one
answer that no one has said, which is nowhere but
not that he retires. The answer is simple. Think of
the personality of Aaron Rodgers. You could argue he's sort
of fall of himself. He's the guy that thinks he's
(21:40):
the smartest dude in the room. That's sort of the
characteristics people tend to say about him. Doesn't it make
sense that Aaron Rodgers doesn't sign with a team and
then knock on would Unfortunately, inevitably, a top level starter
will get hurt in the first quarter of the season,
first four or five games, someone will go down and
he will be a team that's like, man, we have
(22:01):
too much talent to call it a call it a season.
And then Aaron Rodgers comes in to save the day
and go on a playoff run that could be I
don't know, God forbid Herbert high ankle sprain Aaron Rodgers.
Why Dak Prescott gets hurt, or you know, Brock Purdy
comes up limp. Something happens where a top level team
(22:21):
needs a QB and there's Aaron Rodgers just waiting to
be the hero.
Speaker 6 (22:26):
Well, he would have to say, goes, my hero, fucking
be a hero baby, all right, when a hero comes along,
we're all the fine hero the day.
Speaker 4 (22:41):
His name could be Aaron Rodgers and they say that
a hero can save me.
Speaker 3 (22:50):
Yeah, I think I'm out of hero So.
Speaker 4 (22:53):
Yeah, now we could be heroes, just one Aaron Rodgers.
So that's that's where I believe Aaron Rodgers will end up.
I think this that. It just makes too much sense
to me because every other team you did say top
tier team though, So if it's some weak ass, bottom
(23:13):
dwelling team and the starter goes.
Speaker 3 (23:16):
Down, yeah that's not a fit.
Speaker 4 (23:17):
But all the teams we're talking about either have high
hopes in the draft or Aaron Rodgers doesn't fix what
they have. Like Minnesota, to me, if you're gonna move
on from Sam Donald and say hey, you know, listen,
we're not gonna pay him, We're ready for JJ McCarthy,
then they're gonna go straight to McCarthy. There's no point
in substituting. If you've got to pay someone, you might
(23:39):
as well stick with Donald for a couple of years.
That won you fourteen games last year. What are you
fiddling around with Aaron Rodgers for? And you could say, well,
what about the Raiders? The Raiders?
Speaker 3 (23:51):
No, no, no, you're a Raiders guy. Let me tell
you why.
Speaker 4 (23:54):
Ryan, You're in a division with Mahomes, Herobert, Boon, Nicks
and Peyton who seem to have got it together in Denver.
Speaker 3 (24:00):
Aaron Rodgers is not this short term fix for you guys.
Speaker 4 (24:03):
Either I don't want him there, okay, culture reasons, or
just everything.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
He's also washed.
Speaker 4 (24:12):
No, I actually agree with that if I was a GM, right,
if you're a GM of a team, do you want
that guy to be the dude that sets the culture
and the tone for your team.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
I'm looking forward.
Speaker 4 (24:27):
Nothing against him, one of the greats, for sure, but
I think that his days are done and I don't
think he could actually be that dude again at this stage,
coming off that injury, you know, two bad seasons. Do
I wish him the best? Do I root for greatness?
Do you root for the old guy to still have
some in him? Of course? But if I'm looking forward
(24:48):
and I got a young team, he's not the guy
I want. So I actually agree with Ryan there. So
my answer is he is in a darkness retreat somewhere
and he is looking elsewhere in the world of broadcasting. Look,
part of not being able to do McAfee and stuff
shows that his interest is there. What is he making
a million dollars a year doing that? Yeah, he'd make
a hell of a lot more doing football. But he knows
(25:08):
the future is in broadcasting or hosting, or doing whatever
else he plans on doing in the future, And I
think that's where he looks forward.
Speaker 3 (25:15):
And he moves forward. I think he's better suited there.
Speaker 4 (25:18):
I hate to say this because it's our world and
I hate I hate the idea that someone could enter
our world and just immediately be successful at it, but
just based on people loving or hating Aaron Rodgers, if
he decided to do a quote like Wellness and Conspiracy podcast,
it would be successful. He'd be making millions of Now,
I'd have an RFK on, He'd have Rogan on, He'd
(25:40):
have it would And by the way, he's realized that
he likes doing that and that's kind of who he
is now and he loves to live in his truth.
So right, Aaron Rodgers could do that. But I'm telling
you the answer is simple. He doesn't start the season
with someone. Aaron Rodgers stays in shape and he's on
standby waiting to just say hi, yeah, But don't you
(26:00):
have to be mentally there. Aaron Rodgers would argue that
he's the most mentally ready guy. That's his whole vibe,
Like I'm you know, he's mentally social. The prediction, if
you're listening between the lines here is he doesn't play.
Speaker 3 (26:15):
He sits it out.
Speaker 4 (26:17):
Someone goes down has to be a good, good team,
contending team a mid season and then they pull him
out and they're like, hey, you we need you. Honestly,
it's like, again, I don't want to I'm certainly not
trying to jinx anyone, but let me say his ego
getting away and say, look, you don't want me before,
but now you want to know. I think I think
playing hero would be so perfect for his personality. Let's
(26:39):
say Anthony Richardson, and again I'm not wishing injury on
any of these guys, but it's inevitable that someone will
go down. Let's say the Cults are leading in otherwise
crappy division. You know, they're down six and four in
the AFC South ten games in and oh no, they
go down.
Speaker 3 (26:56):
We don't want to throw away the season. Aaron Rodgers
to the rescue. Dallas rebounds. The Cowboys are, you know,
again like five and four and you know, battling for
a wild card. Dak is down. They're not gonna go.
Cooper Rush ain't doing anymore.
Speaker 5 (27:11):
That's That's the team that I think makes the most
sense with what you're saying here, is that's something Dallas
would absolutely do.
Speaker 3 (27:16):
Jerry Jones, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 5 (27:19):
Jerry would love that. That'd be headlines for Dallas for months. Yeah,
he would absolutely do that.
Speaker 4 (27:23):
So you're right, he sounds like a cowboys move right,
sell some tickets.
Speaker 3 (27:26):
How about after the circus?
Speaker 4 (27:28):
Yeah, after that weird vibe of big names and people
just come to see and you still make money out.
I was talking to our dude, Jonas from Two Pros
and a Cup of Joe, and he's like, Aaron Rodgers
to him, makes sense for my forty nine Ers, And
I said, yeah, I get it.
Speaker 3 (27:45):
I I like Brock. I don't. I don't think Brock's
worth fifty five to sixty million a year.
Speaker 4 (27:50):
I like, I like Rock making forty five to fifty
million dollars a year. But there is a part of
you that's like, with Kyle Shanahan's system, does it make
sense to say, Aaron Rodgers two year deal and then
the forty nine Ers draft a quarterback that suits Kyle
Shanahan's system. Now you're pivoting completely away from the success
(28:12):
you had with Purty the last couple of years. But
that's that's one of the few situations that would be
a ballsy chance that who knows, well, it's like childhood team.
Speaker 3 (28:23):
Right, so that's the only Well, yeah, that's.
Speaker 4 (28:25):
Actually kind of cool, much like the old old school
NFL films.
Speaker 3 (28:28):
You make the call Fox Sports Radio Nation.
Speaker 4 (28:31):
What do you think of Rich's exact answer on what
happens to Aaron Rodgers?
Speaker 3 (28:36):
Well, it's time for bo filling in with the herd
line news. No, no, turn on the news.
Speaker 2 (28:43):
This is the herd line news.
Speaker 5 (28:47):
Well, guys, as the great Ben Maller says, the better
story is usually in the losing locker room. We're gonna
talk about Kansas City Chiefs here for a second. The
Athletic is reporting that the Chiefs have given titend Travis
Kelsey a soft deadline of March fourteenth to make his
decision on whether he's going to return or retire from
the NFL.
Speaker 3 (29:06):
You know it's not a good look, Bow And I
know it's social media.
Speaker 5 (29:09):
I Uh, the.
Speaker 4 (29:09):
More I watched the videos, I wouldn't be too upset
if he retired.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
I mean, he's my boy and everything, but thank you.
Speaker 4 (29:15):
I could have blocked for me a few times where
he was just standing there and I took a lot
of hits running around for my life as he just
like watched Hey, Patrick, how do you feel about your
dad fighting John Rocker devastated. I'm mortified. I'm trying to
put a stop to it. Bo. I know it's social media,
but have you seen those isolated clips on certain plays
where Kelsey literally just stood there?
Speaker 5 (29:35):
Yeah, the one where Patrick is scrambling around running for
his life and then if the hole didn't happen, that
could have been a fumble and the Eagles would have
recovered it. That's just not a great look.
Speaker 3 (29:46):
And it looks so lazy, it looks, yeah, so bad.
Speaker 5 (29:49):
He didn't sound like someone that's that's ready to come
back when he was doing his podcast with Jason Kelsey,
so I wouldn't be shocked if he hangs him up.
Speaker 4 (29:57):
I know it sounds ridiculous because oh and if he does,
he goes out, oh yeah, a good note. But he
never stunk really. So he's a three time he's a
three time super Bowl champion. Yeah, he's dating the most
popular woman on planet Earth. He's an automatic Hall of Famer.
He's an automatic Hall of Famer, and he has one
hundred million dollar podcast.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
I hate to say he doesn't really need the NFL.
Speaker 5 (30:17):
Just go, but I do think when push comes the
show and I think he's going to do what his
brother did, come back for a year because nobody wants
to go out losing the Super Bowl. Give him one
more run, back, one and more run. But I don't
know if they're going to be that great next year. Yeah,
teams that were great the Los Angeles Dodgers. Obviously they
won the World Series. Manager Dave Roberts is optimistic that
he and the team will be able to reach an
(30:38):
agreement on a contract extension before the end of spring training.
Speaker 4 (30:42):
You know, we talked to the very controversial yet likable
to us Kurt Chilling, was on our show Radio Row
in New Orleans.
Speaker 3 (30:50):
Some people think he's a maniac.
Speaker 4 (30:51):
I found him to be a fun conversation either way,
fucking baseball come fun baseball conversation. He said that Dave
Roberts from the minute he met him. He said, like,
I sort of knew this guy has the makeup of
a leader. Yes and there he even said, there's never
been a more momentum swinging moment than when Dave Roberts
stole that base in four So you know what you know,
(31:13):
both since I moved out here to Los Angeles and
I hear you and Danny g and Monty and all
the Dodgers fans always talking. Dave Roberts is one of
those guys you love to hate once in a while,
but at the end of the day, he's your guy.
Speaker 5 (31:23):
He went from being fired when they were down to
one of the padres to lifetime contract. People love the
two World Series wins like easy. Yeah, he's he's a liver.
He's the best Dodgers manager in history.
Speaker 6 (31:35):
Best.
Speaker 5 (31:35):
He might have the resume to be just the best
manager in baseball history.
Speaker 4 (31:39):
When all a sudden, Shanta will see me. We'll see
where this goes. Because you guys are pretty stacked. Yeah,
do you think the Dodgers have a shot. I know
that we're we're talking way too early, But what's the
record one hundred and eighteen wins by the Mariners?
Speaker 5 (31:50):
No yet, No, it's one six one sixteen. Yeah, I
think I think it's one sixteen. And they're not They're
going to spend all of August running out Triple A
lineups because they're gonna have clinch the n OL West
by then, because nobody else and that division is serious
about competing.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
I mean, they very well could be like one twelve
and fifty.
Speaker 5 (32:05):
Yeah, I think that's probably pretty accurate.
Speaker 4 (32:07):
Yeah, the two thousand and one Mariners one hundred and
sixteen wins. I'm you know, I'm not a big baseball
gambling guy, but I might pound that over.
Speaker 3 (32:15):
Yeah. I think it's like one oh something like that.
I saw a place where it was one O three
and yeah, yeah, that's pretty I really do. Yeah.
Speaker 5 (32:25):
All right, last one here the city of Philadelphia, obviously
celebrating the Eagles championship. The blood alcohol level out there,
uh might just be pure alcohol at this point.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
Uh.
Speaker 3 (32:36):
People.
Speaker 5 (32:36):
Later, as the buses were passing by U, the crowd
was very excited to see Cooper de Jean. Uh started
yelling Coop and all that stuff, except they were yelling
at it read blank and ship the other the other
exciting white who had to correct the crowd and say, no,
I'm read white guy. Yeah wrong, white guys. Yeah, how
(32:58):
we were past all that?
Speaker 3 (33:00):
Uh, thank you, bo. That's your Herdline news. Well that's
the news, and thanks for stopping by the.
Speaker 2 (33:06):
Heard Line news.
Speaker 4 (33:08):
Well you talked about Travis Kelcey. How about Jason Kelcey
and his wife talking about one of their first dates.
It's a little football it's a little advice on romance,
and I know we'll get to that next right here.

You can find us at Covino and rich and please
check our podcast search Covino and rich around Monday through
(35:36):
Friday five to seven on the East right here at
Fox Sports Radio two to four on the West line
from La. But because it's the weekend of love. Before
we get into all the NBA and Jimmy Butler's Doodo
stain and all that other stuff that's going on this weekend,
we got to talk about this Jason Kelsey thing, because
(35:59):
that's what you were talking about Jason and Kylie Kelson.
Speaker 3 (36:01):
I'm not going to lot to you.
Speaker 4 (36:02):
This morning before the show, Kavino and I walked across
the street to Starbucks, had to get at iced coffee
wake up for the Herd, and I said, Covino, you're
a terrible cook, right.
Speaker 3 (36:16):
And he's like, yeah, the worst shout out to Hello Fresh.
That helps.
Speaker 4 (36:22):
I was, sam Bo, have you ever cooked for a
woman in your life or is that just not your style?
Are you a guy that could put together a nice
meal for a woman.
Speaker 2 (36:29):
Oh?
Speaker 5 (36:29):
Yeah, I think so. I've given time and opportunity.
Speaker 4 (36:32):
Yeah, I think it's like a skill that some guys have,
and some guys are clueless in the kitchen, like they
you know, they could grill, but the idea of putting
a meal together, it's just not in their wheelhouse. I mean,
being a dad forced me to learn the basics. And
when I say the basics, I mean like making a
bro I remember Cavino came into work one day and
he was all excited. He's like, bro, I scrambled an
egg for my daughter. I'm like, what do you want
(36:54):
to cook it? I felt like Randy Savage, I'm so
proud of myself. You're cooking at least barely. Doesn't that
just they just said no and then they want the
Dino Nuggie. So again, I have learned through certain things
like Hello Fresh. Even though we have a code. This
isn't a commercial. I'm serious, we have a code CR
(37:15):
show ten FM CR show ten free meals at Hello
Fresh if you subscribe. It has taught me that it
really is just following simple steps and I can do that,
which means oh, I can cook.
Speaker 3 (37:29):
I guess if I want.
Speaker 2 (37:30):
Taught me.
Speaker 4 (37:31):
But then again, putting together furniture always has instructions or directions,
but we all fail with that. I mean, I could
do that stuff. Look, and I blame my parents. I
bring up the idea, could you cook for a woman
if you had to? Because I saw a headline and
I'm such a dope, I'd be honest with you. I
saw the headline. It said, Jason Kelsey. You don't have
to be honest. We all know that, Jason Kelsey. I
(37:51):
baked air biscuits on my second date with Kylie.
Speaker 3 (37:55):
And I'm like, coveno, even.
Speaker 4 (37:57):
Kelsey could cook. He cooked air biscuits. I'm like, what
are air biscuits? Did I read the article and not cooking?
Apparently that's slang forer he farted?
Speaker 2 (38:07):
What do you mean?
Speaker 4 (38:07):
Apparently we've been doing radio forever you've heard the term
air biscuits.
Speaker 3 (38:11):
Of course, I feel like I invented air biscuits. I
was saying. I was saying, did you know the term
air biscuits meant farted? Maybe? I mean he saw the headline.
Speaker 4 (38:21):
Something called deductive reasoning or having a brain hold on
if you can't figure out the fact that air biscuits
are what that means they'd done.
Speaker 3 (38:27):
If you saw the head deductive reasoning.
Speaker 4 (38:29):
Kel Wait, if you saw the headline Jason Kelcey, and
it's a beautiful picture him and his wife, and it
said he baked her air biscuits.
Speaker 3 (38:34):
When you assume that meant.
Speaker 4 (38:35):
He farted, yes, well anyway, so Rich, honestly, Rich was
like you should be a marath. I'm like why He's like,
even Jason Kelsey could cook and you can't, And like,
what do you mean he could cook? And then we
realized that, oh no, he didn't make anything for his wife.
He's just farting on her all the time. Nothing says
romance on Valentine's weekend like that. Nothing gets a woman
all hot and wanting you more than you farting on her.
(38:57):
Let me tell you now, Jason Kelcey. I wanted to
bring this up because it is Valentine's Day and I
want to give everyone a piece of advice. Jason Kelcey.
He's a man that we could all look and say,
what a guy. Right, He's a man's man, burly man man.
I mean, the best at what he did in the NFL.
He's got a beautiful he got a big heart, beautiful
(39:18):
talented wife. He's a dad of multiple kids, like Jason
Kelsey seems like a good dude, but get this, on
his second date with Kylie, apparently they went ice skating.
Speaker 3 (39:30):
What are they like rocking? And Adrian? Yeah, absolutely is
people standing on ice on most We all know how
Polly feels. Nice is stupid. He's a nice and stupid,
but he loves snow cones. I remember you like Polly.
He likes snow coold by a snow cool machine.
Speaker 4 (39:44):
Right, So he goes ice skating with Kylie on their
second date, and as the story goes, as he's bending
down to put on his ice skates, so it's fart
in front of Kylie on date number two. And you
could say that, oh, Rich, maybe you're just not comfortable
with your wife. I built my wife over ten years now.
(40:08):
I still do not let them rip in front of her.
I feel like it's disrespectful. I feel like, how are
you supposed to keep the romance alive if you're that
guy that's like, honey, pull my finger to me. I
just had to throw it out there. We can move
on in a few but I just had to remind
everyone you're doing no favors to your romance and your
(40:30):
love life. That's a nice way of putting it right,
It's not the most welcoming of gestures, right, like, Hey,
you want to get sexy right now and maybe have
some fun in the funk shop. You can't expect you
you can't expect your wife to think of you in
a filthy and dirty way if you're farting.
Speaker 3 (40:51):
I never understood this for the life of me.
Speaker 5 (40:53):
Well, Kylie Kelsey also must have the patience of an angel,
because I think their first date, like he's told the
story where his teammates to carry him out of the
bar because he passed out drunk.
Speaker 4 (41:04):
No, no, wait, she clearly is the type that is
very understanding or actually is charmed by his behavior. He's
a burly man's man. Oh what a man, What a
mighty good man.
Speaker 3 (41:21):
When is date number three? Yeah exactly.
Speaker 4 (41:26):
But so this is a particular relationship that works in
this way. But if our other associate producer, video guy
Spot was here, he would defend this. Spot does our
videos at Covino and Rich if you want to see
what we do, and Fox Sports Radios YouTube page.
Speaker 3 (41:41):
Along with Elijah.
Speaker 4 (41:42):
Spot is one of those guys that is like an
advocate that there should be no holds barred and there
should be total freedom in the relationship and that they
both do it. And I'm like, yeah, there's a level
of respect that I give and I also want to
return because I also I would be so like almost
mortified and turned off if that happened. Accidents happened that
(42:04):
I understand, Like, Hey, we're humans, Accidents happen.
Speaker 3 (42:08):
Of course, people get sick people.
Speaker 4 (42:10):
You know, but like to be like, you know, doing
that in my presence, I'd be like, what, Yeah, I
don't even do that. As a reminder, on Valentine's Day,
the Romance Live, when I saw the headline that Jason
Kelsey is baking air biscuits, I can't believe you never
heard of him. Then, I just want to remind all
of you you're doing no You're doing no favors for
(42:33):
your love life by just being gross in front of
your significant other because you're thinking about all the things
you may want her to do to you. Guess what's
not gonna help that, cause, honey, the biscuits are done.
Come on, obay something so hey. Just a reminder from
Covinion Rich to you on Valentine's Day. In for the Herd,
(42:56):
we got some more NFL, we got some NBA a
lot of fun on a Friday show.
