(00:22):
It's your life, bro hour. Never you said it, Yeah,
it's baseball basketball, Belichick a lot to get to. So
let me kick it off. No waiting, no dilly dallying.
Let me ask you about this. We were talking about
the Knicks Celtics Game three. By the way, do we
officially get confirmation Paul Pierce did walk twenty miles to work?

(00:43):
Say hey, so I see you know he would so
not winded like that's like Forrest Gump running like I'm
gonna start now, Like that does look like a man
that ran twenty miles.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
If he didn't do it, at least he put the
production value effort into what he did yesterday, agreed, Danny.

Speaker 1 (00:59):
G Can I share a little information here? Yeah? So.
Sean Merriman, former San Diego Charger, friend of.

Speaker 3 (01:05):
The show, Friend of the show, Sean Merriman, he tweeted
out this was at eleven oh nine Pacific time last night.
He said mad respect a little at Paul Pierce, and
then he screenshoted a grock AI summary and it says
that the step count of thirty three thousand and four
to sixty five from Paul Pierce on May eight, twenty
twenty five appears genuine based on available evidence. And it

(01:28):
goes on too he publicly committed to walking fifteen to
twenty miles after the Celtics loss, and then he says
and then the grock AI summary says news outlets like
n E, s N and TMZ along with his own
social media confirmed he completed the journey, which took about
eight hours.

Speaker 1 (01:43):
Yeah, happy to you.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
Point two mile route and he shared a map of
the route and he is the truth, you.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
Know what true? And you got to commit to the bit.
Have you ever seen that sports documentary about the woman
that cheated on the marathon? Yeah, she took the subway.
The subway pop that at the finish line. Yeah, that's
a great move. But speaking of Paul Pierce, Celtics, will
they recover Game three? They have to at the Garden,
New York City. That's gonna be the hottest ticket. It's

(02:12):
going to be rocking. Man, it's gonna be insane, it's
gonna be such a scene, and it's the hottest ticket
in town. Look, we're from the East Coast, you guys
know that, but we're out here in the mean streets
of La Live from the Barrios Covino and Rich. But
all of our friends, my brother, his friends, they're all
trying to get that ticket because the Knicks are hot
right now and the Celtics are coming, former champs, defending champs,

(02:37):
coming to the Garden, celebrity status, high ticket prices, and
last night checked like six point fifty for the weak
ass seats. I gotta check it right now. You well,
well you check out lub or seat geek the weak
ass just actually starch weak ass seat and then see
what comes up. Yeah, they were like six to seven

(02:58):
hundred dollars. So here's my question. If you are in
a city where your team is hot and that ticket
is expensive, how much of a purchase does it need
to be before you run it by the wifey, the girlfriend,
the husband, the boyfriend, Like what what do you have
a limit where you need to run it by the

(03:18):
other person. Well, we have a rule. It's an old rule.
Prices have gone up, inflation, triflation, everything's kicked in. Times
are different. Our old rule used to be this, if
you're a dude and you're making your own money. But again, respectfully,
you have a wife and you're trying to keep her
posted on your purchases. If you're out and about, and

(03:41):
let's say you're at a best Buy or at a
PC Richards. Is this also two thousand and five you're
at a circuit city. Guys, you're at an electronics store? Right, Yes,
we used to say anything over five hundo had to
be run by your wife. We're not saying ask permission,
but we used to say you'd run it by out

(04:02):
of respect. So you don't just show up, you know,
at home, in a big giant box and you didn't
even tell her about it. But nowadays, too, how many
boxes do you show up to every day at home?
It's like those rules were out the window. No one
ran those prices by you. I remember this came up
because I bought a car once Danny I decided I
need a new car. I went to the dealership and
Covino was like, oh, what is your wife think about
Oh I haven't told you yet. It's like you bought

(04:22):
a car. I'm like, yeah, it's not a permission thing.
It's like, hey, I'm just running it by letting you know.
It's so we used to say five hundred was the
limit for that.

Speaker 2 (04:33):
I would say with inflation, it actually makes each dollar
we have more valuable. So three hundred dollars right now
is the mark where me and my wife let each
other know. Yeah, this was over three hundred dollars, Just
so you know.

Speaker 1 (04:44):
That's a good point man. Yeah, so what is that
number now? If Knicks tickets are six seven hundred dollars
a ticket for the weakest seat, you just buy those
and not run it by anybody. Yeah, your wife's like,
I'm going to Beyonce with my girlfriends. Do you do
you feel like it's here's a light to say, by
the way, say you can. I think you can, because
again we said times have changed. Right, how many boxes,

(05:07):
honestly a week or packages come in the mail that
you had no clue of They weren't ran by you
or discussed in any way at all. And yeah, maybe
some of it's for the house, but half fit, you
don't even know what's in that package. No one cares
about you when it comes to orders matter, So doesn't
matter if you think that change the rule. Doesn't matter
if you were her as the breadwinner. No, because if

(05:30):
you're in a committed relationship, right, it's respect. It's sort
of just a respect sort of thing.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
I don't think you need to but they chip away
forty dollars at a time.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
But it all adds up, I know it, right, yea,
all that adds up if you're making one purchase, think
about it. If you're a guy. Of course, men and
women are both listening, so both feel free to chime
into eight seven seven ninety nine one box. How many
of those packages are strictly and solely for you throughout
a month? Right one, Danny Sora, DJ, you nailed it.
I looked at my credit card months ago and I

(06:01):
was like, did someone buy a new vehicle forty thirty
twenty eight, forty sixty twenty forty And again these are
things Amazon, Jeff Bezos should send me an edible arrangement.
You're right, sometimes these things just add up. And what
are a lot of people say, Oh, it's for the kids.
I needed to get the kid, But the kids getting

(06:22):
stuff that some of it is necessities for the house,
I get it, but how much of it is for
the house. A lot of it is just I'm bored
and I'm online shopping right now, right right, And how
many of that is usually for you? Like I said,
if I get one package a month, that's a lot.
So no one runs that by you, And I don't
know how much you have to run by if you're
going to one game because your team finally made it

(06:45):
this far, and out of kindness, you want to be
respectful to your partner. Again, it's not asking for permission.
I never want to be the guy that's like, oh news,
it okay if I get these golf clothes, like that
guy is a simp? Oh I could, I was. I
was close, Sam, your fingers on that button? Say that
guy's a pooh whimp. Never be together to calling your

(07:06):
new permission. But out of respect, because you want to
be a good man, you discuss these things with your
significant other. But I do ask, do you fudge that
the amount? Sometimes I always round down. If I'm in
Vegas with you guys and I get a little carried
away at the craps table, I may trim a few
hundred off of how much I lost. When I'm talking
to my wife, Babe, how are you doing off bed

(07:29):
at the tables what you lose? And I'm like six
hundred four hundred. When you're talking money, round down. When
you're talking inches, always round up inches, your round top money,
round down. According to the AI Overview, and I'm not
talking Alan iverson, Nick's tickets for the game against the
Celtics at the Garden Man what a matchup are ranging
from approximately it's up now seven twenty one to two

(07:52):
thousand dollars a ticket, depending on the specific seat location
and secondary market pricing. Some sources indicate that the average
price for Nick Celtics games can approach two gees. So look,
how often does your team get this far? There's an
exceptional matchup the Knicks. Everyone's excited about it. It's one
of those Yo, you were there for that. You know,

(08:12):
you want to do it for the gram, you want
to take some pictures, you want to tell the story.
It's basically a must win for the Celtics though, and
they waited a long time. Yeah, you may go there
to watch the Celtics win.

Speaker 2 (08:23):
I would be so upset as a Knicks fan spending
all that money, and it's a game really the Celtics
have to have.

Speaker 1 (08:29):
But as a fan who you also feel part of
that victory because the Celtics are coming to the Garden,
I think they're entering real, real furious territory, like real
excited energy levels that we haven't seen in years at
the Garden. So the question really is, guys, we broke
it down. You get packages all the time, Money's being

(08:51):
spent all the time. But if you're going to spend
let's say, over seven hundred, right, over seven hundred dollars
for a ticket, NIX ticket, Knicks ticket, or any important
ticket that is for you, do you have to run
it by WiFi or the girlfriend or your significant other,
whoever it is. Listen, some couples run so independently of
each other that this isn't even a question. Like some
people have separate accounts and they do their own thing.

(09:12):
Here's another angle. If you go to a concert, if
you're like, yeah, I'm getting sweet seats to the Foo
Fighters or you know, your wife or girlfriend Sonic Temple
this weekend. Metallica a bunch of bands in Ohio playing
this weekend. If you're going. If your wife went to
go see Taylor Swift and spent a ton of money
a year ago, that's a guaranteed joyous night. Like if

(09:34):
you go see Metallica, Yeah, you're gonna have a great time, regardless, regardless.
I'm gonna speak on the other side of that, where
I spent a couple grand to go see the Mets
Dodgers in the playoffs last year. Whole family cotton, candy,
hot dogs or anything. Mets got smoked. So I left
being like, man, I'm an idiot. By the way, thickets
are still availables. Ninety nine percent sold out for Sonic

(09:57):
Temple this weekend in Ohio. Corn See, we got a
corn we got Metallic a Lincoln Park Incubus Alice in
chains and that's a hell of a show. Oh man, Yeah,
it's a few days insane, So tickets are still available.
But anyway, again, you know the point, you get the
question eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. The more
I think about it, and the more I have times

(10:17):
have changed. Women are spending so much money, or your
significant others spending so much money on things that you
don't even know about. I think you can get away
with this one because it's the playoffs and it's a
big game. We're insinuating your team hasn't been there in
a long time. And I'll tell you this, Listen. You
could say, you could say, well, that's sexist, Rich. I

(10:41):
don't think it is. You know, my wife does a
way better job than I do about making sure things
are kept up for the kids. But any package I
get in the mail, you know what it is. It's like, Oh,
I ran out of the order and so I ordered
it on Amazon. Oh you know I needed a new
little wire from my laptop I got on Amazon. Are
you getting anything really for yourself? Ever? Dude? If I

(11:01):
buy a hat, like a hat once in a while,
like that's it. I have a new Yankees cap. I
am never buying it. Oh I ran out of hair product,
let me buy it. Like that's my deliveries. So let's
think about it. Let's chop it up, let's get involved.
Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. Some great games.
Do you have to run it by? Who do we got?
We're gonna go to all your phone calls. Danny G's

(11:23):
on there right now, eight seven, seven nine to nine
on Fox. And while we get those phone calls lined up.
I want you to start thinking about something else as well.
Rafael Devers a guy that started the season like ass,
but he since turned it around a bit. He's always,
in his defense, always been a great, great hitter, great
player for the Red Sox. As a Yankees fan, Yankees killer, like,

(11:44):
I'm like, this dude is incredible. Rafael Devers one of
those guys that thinks, excuse me, I'm getting over. You're
right if I choke and then fall in the air,
as that could ratings. By the way, did you see
that woman pass out on Fox News? I'm sorry this
is relevant because I'm like, choking. Are you sure you're

(12:06):
not having like an eighty D attack or something? No,
excuse me, this is hilarious. Imagine you and I are
doing our show week we do every day. Yeah, it's
a guy and a girl on Fox News. Middle of
the broadcast. The girl's like, and coming up, we're gonna
talk about the tariffs faints. The guy looks she's laying

(12:28):
out and he's like, could someone help her? Coming up
on five o'clock. He doesn't star. He doesn't miss a beat.
I haven't seen that. He doesn't miss a beat.

Speaker 4 (12:37):
If I fall.

Speaker 1 (12:38):
I want you to keep going. Okay, dude, she fainted
and the guy doesn't miss a beat. He's like and
yesterday Pope Leo, and it's like, dude, a woman is
laying unconscious next to you. No, rich, don't go dying,
you know, let's go to your phone calls. Now, go dying.
I mean, I'm back. Sorry, I almost choked for a second.
I'm Chris ALBERTA line one will start with you, buddy boy,

(12:59):
what's up? Man?

Speaker 5 (13:00):
Hi? Could be you knowing wretch heys. I was just hey,
I was just doing a quick search on groc there
on the on the X platform, and I typed in,
did Paul Pierce walk barefoot through LA for eight or
nine hours? Something to that? Verbatim and Grock replied, there's

(13:21):
not enough solid and credible evidence to report that Paul
Pierce did that.

Speaker 1 (13:28):
Well, you know what, even if he didn't, and if
it was, if he did a little something, at least
he faked the nasty dunk. Yeah, at least yeah tried.

Speaker 2 (13:36):
If you put at least two to three hours into
your bet or promise, then at least you paid something.

Speaker 1 (13:41):
Hang, I got him there, Elijah and Fresnow what's up man, Elijah, Elijah,
you're on?

Speaker 6 (13:46):
Oh heyyah, hey guys, I'm sorry I.

Speaker 7 (13:50):
Always frame my large purposes or my much purchases.

Speaker 1 (13:54):
I'm sorry.

Speaker 7 (13:54):
I can't speak ring out as surprised.

Speaker 8 (13:58):
So I'll be like, hey, guess what, guys, we're going
the Lakers game five tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (14:02):
Oh so you make it seem like everything like oh wow,
oh but hold on, but you're including your significant other, right, Oh, I.

Speaker 6 (14:09):
Took I took my took my five year old with
us this time. He's not going with us again, Okay,
A bunch of a bunch of money on tickets, like
two rows up from the floor.

Speaker 7 (14:20):
And as soon as we sat down, he sighed and
pointed up and said, I want to.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
Sit up there. Well, that's a way safer move to
include like your wife and your family. Yeah, you're on
the budget, but you included them. You made him part
of it. That's a safer move. I was thinking, like,
you're just going either solo, right or bringing a friend,
like you're going with your buddy mo in Tempe. You're on,
what's up buddy? Hey mo? Hey, guys got the name,

(14:46):
so I got it being my wife over twenty years,
so as long as you're not dipping into the savings,
you know.

Speaker 7 (14:52):
I mean, I don't think.

Speaker 4 (14:52):
The permission being is necessary.

Speaker 1 (14:54):
Like you said, out of respect, you still give her
the heads up.

Speaker 7 (14:56):
But if you're smart, you get hurt something.

Speaker 1 (15:01):
I hear you're saying, like pad it a little bit
like yeah, hey, maybe I got you. I thought of you,
and you got you massage. Yeah. Oh, by the way,
I'm going to the playoff game.

Speaker 2 (15:09):
In Rich's case, I bought a brand new car, but
I got you a muffin from Starbucks.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
I got you a banana loaf. I'm actually great advice man,
Tim and DC. What's up? Buddy? Wait?

Speaker 8 (15:20):
Tim, Hey, guys quick on the Fox News. Girl. I
don't think she actually passed out. I think she just
was eating her words and said I gotta just bail.
I think she just hit the floor. She did not know,
she did not know how to finish hands sentence.

Speaker 1 (15:33):
But uh, it was it's a wild it's a wild
cub by the way. I know, I was a tangent,
but looked that up later. Coveno. If you haven't seen it,
she just I haven't seen it.

Speaker 8 (15:41):
Yeah, but uh, it is buying those tickets to the
next game a form of gambling, like if they win,
you're walking on air, You're taking a limo home. But
it's the Knicks lose and I'm out of thousand dollars,
Like I'm not even taking the subway home, I'm walking home.

Speaker 1 (15:54):
Life's a risk, are now it is? It's definitely a risk.
You're hoping they win. I remember going to a Mets
game seven and they lost, and it was rainy out,
and I didn't I honestly, I walked halfway. I walked
in through Queen's for like three subway stops, like.

Speaker 4 (16:09):
I hate life.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
I remember a time you drove through the desert, yes
after the forty nine has lost the Super Bowl, and
I was there. I hated life so much that I
rented a car and drove home. I didn't want to
wait for my flight. You know what, man, you may
think it's a sexist sort of take, and I'm not
trying to be but if you're a if you're a man,
like absolutely, like a Rocky Bilboman, like Rocky Bowbo like
I'm a man, smell mainly absolutely. I don't ask you

(16:31):
to stop being a woman, you know, Like, don't stop
asking me to be a man, and you make your
own money and you're not in debt or anything. Right,
you're a good guy. You make your own money. I
think you just do it just to establish again that
you're the man I hate like. It's not like you're
at the Newdy bar wasting money. Your team made it
to the playoffs, you're pumped about it. You bought a ticket.

(16:54):
It doesn't need much explanation if you're a responsible guy.
I don't think you know a lot of our significant others.
I'm just saying, but this is a way to re
establish a reset kind of you know, let's go to
where we're going. Were going to d C. We talked
to you. Let's go to Vegas, Vegas, Las Vegas. What's up?

Speaker 6 (17:11):
Trap Hey, gentlemen, good afternoon.

Speaker 1 (17:14):
What's up?

Speaker 6 (17:15):
So Hey, here's a good spin on this. It's not
how much you're allowed to spend. But one time with
my ex, she found a credit card statement. Well I'd
spent a little undred four thousand dollars, but it was
on her, So therefore it's no limit when you're buying
her something.

Speaker 1 (17:30):
Gotcha. Yeah, but that's the double standard, right If your
wife or girlfriend wanted some expensive bag, is she stopping
you from buying it, so you can't buy yourself a
sweet playoff ticket? Do you want, Mario? Wrap it up
in El Paso and then we'll talk a little baseball.
Little Raphael Devers. What's up? Man? What up?

Speaker 5 (17:48):
I've been with my wife for thirty one years, and
the secret to.

Speaker 7 (17:52):
My success for happiness, I should say, is I treat her.

Speaker 8 (17:57):
I buy her stuff all year long, so there's no.

Speaker 7 (17:59):
Limit when I want to go do something with the boys.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
I love it. Don't ask question, Mario. That goes with
my my theory of my whole marriage, which is, I know,
I try to be good on a regular base and
just be a really like, thoughtful guy so that when
I do dumb things, my wife's like, well, yeah, he's
really nice in the bank. Yeah, I feel like I'm
banking it essentially right. And let me make it clear,

(18:22):
I'm not saying to keep secrets and don't tell and
lie about it. But yeah, I think you get that ticket, dude,
if you're a good dude, get it. Do it. Well. Hey,
coming up, we got a lot to get to. We
can play Belichick or Cavino. We're gonna talk some baseballs
and there's a really funny viral story about the gym,
and I think it's gonna be our most fun conversation

(18:43):
of the day. It has to do with the rules, promise,
the rules of closing. In fact, I promise it will
be the best conversation today on Fox Sports Radio. Overall.
All right, we got more CNR next. Now promise you know,
Raffey al Dever is more than I do. Only because
you're an Alas fan. You watch the Yankees every day
your life. I don't blame you. Fun team to watch.

(19:05):
And by the way, have you seen the stat about
how in May Jan Soto leads Aaron Judge in every
statistical category. Wan Soto's getting hot as Judge getting cold?
I mean what nine days into? I mean nine days
is still nine days, isn't it? In wave in maover
that know all month. I'm gonna go, let me, uh

(19:27):
pull up Dever's stats here. I don't know if it
really matters much, but the dude's approven player. He had
a bad start, like you already said, the historically bats
remember he was over eighteen with fifteen strikeouts. Yeah, now
he believe it or not, he's been in two fifty five,
which is decent considering how he started. And in today's game,
six dongs, six bombs, twenty five RBI, that's what he's

(19:48):
doing right now. But twenty five ribyes for a guy
that started that bad. My goodness, the guy turned the
season around. Here, really start geting a great hitter career
two seventy eight hitter already has over two two hundred
career home runs. Two hundred and six career home runs
started in twenty seventeen. He's been in the league nine
years already. But the dude is good, right, safe to
say yeah, But he also played third base for the

(20:11):
Red Sox. Then the Red Sox got Bregman and he
was like, yeah, but I'm still the third baseman, right,
and they're like, no, no, you're not. You're the DH.
But now they want him to play first base. So
he was the DH all season long. Now they wanted
to play first base, and now Devers is saying, yeah,

(20:33):
I don't want to do that, and I'll quote him
here's what he really said. No, no, nobody he said.
He's like, nah, he said, I know I'm a ballplayer,
but at the same time, they can't expect me to
play every single position out there in spring training. They
talked to me and basically told me to put my
glove away, that I wasn't going to play any other position.

(20:54):
But DH so right now, I just feel like it's
not an appropriate decision by them to asked me to
play another position. It was the GM that I spoke with.
I'm not sure what he has with me. He played ball,
and I would like to think he knows that changing
position like this isn't easy. That's Raphael Dever's speaking on

(21:14):
why he doesn't want to move to first base. Now,
there's two ways to look at this, like, hey, man,
we pay you a lot of money and a lot,
and by a lot, you know what that a lot
is three hundred and thirteen million over ten years. So
get out there and play ball, right. We want you
to clean up the sunflowers. See it's in the dugouts
and wee million dollars a year. So you can look
at it that way, like, hey, dude, we're not asking

(21:35):
you to do something out of the out of the norm.
We're asking you to play first base or out of
the well. I guess it is out of the norm
because he doesn't play first place, but it's it isself baseball.
Your a professional ball player, right, I get it. Now,
you could say, dude, we're talking on the highest of
levels to get out to a position he's not familiar with.

(21:57):
He was a third baseman again, and play first base,
which requires a specific, a particular set of skills. Right,
I would say, aside from catcher, first base would be
they Liam Neeson. No, but it is. You have to
know how to skill. You have to know how to school,
you have to know how to stretch, you have to
know how to cover. First base does require a specific
skill set that he's not familiar. But it's not like

(22:20):
Sunday softball where you put your fat buddy at first base. Right,
this is major league baseball. So I mean it's one
thing to jump out there in Sunday softball, but on
a high level to get out there and you don't
feel confident about it, and it's not your position, you
don't feel good about it. If you play bad, you're
just running your own reputation. Again, it's not little league.

(22:40):
We already had a tough year. It's not little league, weep,
But the tall kid or the lefty at first base,
this is every position in Major League baseball. Is of
the highest skill now, So I'm just giving you both
sides so that you could think about it and weigh
it out, and we're going to figure out, well, who's
wrong here. I have my opinions, Rich has his. We'll
go around the room, we'll take your phone calls. Should
you just go out there and shut up? Go out
there and take a risk and embarrass himself and then

(23:02):
everyone's pointing at him like he's doing something wrong. He's like, hey,
I just sign up to play first but I'm not
a first base. Now. Money isn't everything, but when you
make three hundred plus million dollars over ten years, that's
a hell of a lot of money to play a
kid's game and have fun. But he's deserved it and
earned it based on the market value and what Rafael
Devers brings. I think who I'm blaming is Endeavors. It's

(23:26):
I sort of blame the Red Sox for going after
Alex Bregman, which they should have. The guy's batting over
three hundred, he has nine home runs, thirty ribi's he's
a star. You want Bregman on your team. But when
Alex Rodriguez, who you could argue is significantly better than
any of these guys were talking about. When he went
to the Yankees, He's like, listen, I want to play

(23:48):
for a winner. Where do you want me to play?
Do you want me to play third base? Because Jeter's
your shortstop? Shouldn't there have been a sense of Bregman
not wanting to take a SuperStar's position, or is Bregman like, yo,
you want me on your team? I played third base?
I think it was the Red Sox call from the
get go that he was just the guy. They didn't

(24:08):
really give Devs much of a shot or chance. They
they just said Bregman was the new third baseman. It
was sort of surprise to everybody. And again, this all
happens because the Red Sox first baseman Cossas had a
season ending knee injury, Tristan Cassa, so they're like, well, hey, Devers,
can you get out there? He's like, what, I don't

(24:30):
play first base? So is the money the factor? Because
how would you approach that at your job? You're like, yo,
I don't do that. What if it's just a skill
set you don't have? But it's like a doo lays
down tile, all right, It's like a dude who does
drywall right, like, yeah, we need you to tie, and
he's like, yeah, but I don't tile. I mean, I mean,
probably figure it out, but it's not gonna be that great.

(24:53):
I don't tie, then I'm gonna have to deal with
the consequences. But that's not what I that's not my
skill set. So you know what, think about it. We'd
love to hear from you. Are are you team? Rafael? Dever?
You rarely see a player put their team on blast
in this way because they're saying they He's publicly saying
they messed up. This is their problem. I don't play
first base. Yeah, you know. I'll break it down with

(25:15):
one final statement then we'll go to dB. When you
play rex sports, if you're playing pickup basketball at the gym,
or you know, weekend softball, whatever you do to stay active,
pick a ball. I always say, if someone asked the
new guy, hey, new guy, Hey, where do you play?
You know what? The only answer is, wherever you need me. Well,
we also talked about this week. You gotta be versatile, man.

(25:37):
If you're not. What we talked about earlier this week,
the times where people step up because someone goes down
and we also commended it, so we have to be
consistent here. We talked about the dude at the Kentucky Derby,
We talked about Scott. Remember when Charlie Arnold had to
do ring announcing because Joey Martinez got sick. Yeah, she's

(25:58):
not a ring announcer, but she did it, became the
first woman ever to do it. People step up, People
step up. Is the point and it's time HOA time
for our tire rack play of the day. The NHL
Playoffs stay on fire with another overtime finish. Carry now

(26:22):
to McDavid with Broom gets in over the.

Speaker 9 (26:24):
Line across Dry Sun Up, Leon, Dry Sun Up. This
is the game and other time Side four Oilers win
and they're up two games to nothing in this second
round series.

Speaker 1 (26:45):
WHOA, that's Game two Edmonton getting the big win as
they now lead the Vegas Knights two games to zero.
That's courtesy of the Oilers Radio Network. And that's our
tyraqt play of the debt. Now, before we take your
phone calls and continue on, remind you that we have
a brand new over promised available. It's our bonus podcast.
It's a lot of fun. You could watch it. You

(27:05):
could listen. It's on Fox Sports Radios YouTube page. Check
check check go check it out. Over Promised with C
and R because this bozo to my left over promises
things we never get to. You know, I overpromise things
because as you're blab we have two hours. Yeah, and
while we are, you know, brainstorming ideas before the show,
throughout the show, other things popping are like a brain drizzle.

(27:27):
Now you're exaggerating. Let's how you're It's a brain drizzle,
not a storm really, but things come up like we
just saw that the oilers one last night. OT. I
thought how the Edmonton Oilers and then you had back
in the day the Houston Oilers. Cooler logo, cooler team.
What do you think? Because I saw a meme that's say, hey,
I'm a big Utah mammoth guy. It's funny because Mammoth

(27:49):
is on now the list of multiple cool there's so
many little Easter eggs and hidden meanings and there's so
many different things. We actually talked about it on over Promise.
Check it out. All right, I'm gonna give you five
mo plug. I'm gonna give you five of them. You
tell me instinctively like cooler franchise, Okay, cooler franchise, the
LA Kings or the Sacramento Kings. I'm gonna have to

(28:12):
lead Los Angeles LA Kings NHL. I mean just the
Colors alone, yeah, okay. Florida Panthers, Carolina Panthers hockey NFL.
Florida Panthers of the NHL or Carolina Panthers. I like
the Florida Panthers feel okay. Winnipeg Jets, New York Jets.

(28:34):
Are you talking about success or just logos? Do you
feel like they're cool? Success, like all together, like vibe
uniform colors success East Coast kid, it's got to be
the New York Jets, well Winnipeg right now, though, in
this moment, a Saint Louis Cardinals or Arizona Cardinals. That's
a good one. I'm going yeah, I'm going Baseball Classic

(28:56):
New York Rangers of the NHL or Texas Rangers of
Mid League Baseball. I'm going walker Texas Ranger. Is that okay?
New York Rangers and both have been winners. San Francisco
Giants or the New York Football Giants New York Football
Giants just because I'm a Dodgers. Soon okay, fair enough
one TV.

Speaker 10 (29:15):
Any stand out to you in the well, like the
Cardinals ones, Like I think you got to go to
the original because Arizona came from Stelis. Yeah, San Francisco
Giants came from New York, so you got to do
the team that stayed there.

Speaker 1 (29:26):
A good point. Yeah, yeah, So let's get back to it,
at least set it up before we take phone calls
Raphael Devers saying he won't play first base. That's where
it was at. Won't do it. They need him to
play first base, but he's like, you know, I thought
I was your DH. You said I was your DH.
I wanted to play third you said no. What do
you think, Brian in Vegas? Can you resist it? Does

(29:47):
it make Devers look like a clown or the team
look foolish? Now?

Speaker 4 (29:52):
What's up?

Speaker 11 (29:52):
Guys?

Speaker 7 (29:53):
Rich Bank?

Speaker 8 (29:53):
Bankner Gangs?

Speaker 1 (29:54):
First of all, Banner Gang, what's up?

Speaker 3 (29:56):
Bro?

Speaker 7 (29:57):
Well, so I think it's I think it's towards the
end of Devers in Boston.

Speaker 4 (30:02):
I think I didn't even.

Speaker 7 (30:04):
Know his character was kind of like, I'm not gonna
do that because yeah, I played park league softball. It's
funny that you bring that upreach we actually are going
to play tonight. But whenever I sub on somebody else's team,
I tell him first, like, hey, I'm an outfielder. So
particularly if you're like, if you want me to play,
you want me to come out, you need an outfielder,
you let me know.

Speaker 1 (30:22):
So yeah, I mean some people will be like, hey,
here's what I do, here's what I play. He is
putting his reputation at risk if he decides to play
first and he stinks. So what do you guys think?
We'll take your phone calls? Wrap it up next A
seven seven ninety nine m Fox. By the way, is
it wrong that after a long week? Yes, of no,
not only work, but yes, I'm sure a lot of

(30:42):
parents can relate coaching and baseball, softball, gymnastics, dance. Is
it okay because I got nothing today? Can I go
in the garage, turn on the NBA playoffs and tell
my kids just don't go near me?

Speaker 6 (30:54):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (30:55):
Can I do? It's like a you know, Dan Laurier.
I call it Dan Laurier, like the Wonder Years to Yeah,
like the dad from Wonder Years when he came home
like everyone got out of his way, pull an old
school move. My kids are not old school. You saw
we we did that trend where your kids fill in
the blank on the old school phrase. It's like, instead
of wait till your father gets home, they're like, wait
till that buys us.

Speaker 2 (31:14):
Something like seriously, it sounds like watching that whole video afterwards,
I left with the impression you bribe them a lot.

Speaker 1 (31:22):
Yeah, dude, you know, you know what if you don't
know what we're talking about catch riches Instagram. Yeah, and
you see how his kids feel about him. There's a
trend where you give old school parental sayings and your
kids fill in the blanks and they don't know any
of the ones like I brought you into this world.
I could take you out to take us to get

(31:43):
toys exactly. I brought you into this world by us
igh cream, I brought you into this world, my kids said,
because you love us.

Speaker 2 (31:52):
Also came away from it thinking, wow, these kids Rich,
they think you think very highly of them. Every single
answer was because we deserve it, because we're such wonderful kids.

Speaker 1 (32:03):
You I see it at Rich Davis. Nice kids. Not
to get too personal, I've had a conversation with my
wife this morning over breakfast. I said, listen, you know,
every parent loves to brag about their kids, so I'll
keep it real. My kids are smart, they do well
in school, never a problem, they're good little athletes, they're active,
they're nice kids. But they're soft. And I'm having a
hard time with my kids being soft. And I think

(32:26):
it's every kid in this generation, Like they get mopey
and cry over things, and I I just feel like
when we were younger, we weren't as soft. They take
after Dad, I guess. I mean part of the proof
in that is they haven't heard you say one of
those sayings.

Speaker 6 (32:41):
I know.

Speaker 1 (32:42):
Just wait till not your father gets on, Wait till
you get me Pokemon cards, Wait till dad gets home
with two hundred dollars in Target toys? Were you? That's right?
So I got to step it up, Dan, I need
to administer some As you said, Dan, LORI a parenting
from the Wonder years. Yeah, I got nineteen sixties Dad
threaten them a little bit. What's up, dbdb? I feel
like you're a softy too. You're such a nice guy.

Speaker 10 (33:01):
Well, I put the foot down last night because after
I caved in giving into some barbecue chicken bites that
he likes. They weren't ready, so I said, well, let's
go into the grocery store and pick up some milk
and stuff. He wanted a toy from the grocery store
for no reason whatsoever, though, one of those five dollars

(33:22):
ones that hangs like in the cereal aisle, just on
a random thing it could be.

Speaker 1 (33:26):
And I said, no way, that's not happening. You're already
getting wings. And he looks at you like, what what
do you mean, Pat? What does me put my foot down?
How about that? Yeah?

Speaker 10 (33:38):
Man, wait to tell them after I completely overpaid for
these barbecue chicken bites that caved in.

Speaker 1 (33:43):
I think every parent in this generation deals with like yo,
I want to put the smack down, but listen rightfully,
so we don't hate our kids anymore. We don't do
some of the old school things. So yesterday at baseball practice,
I told my son, if you don't focus and listen
to me and the coaches, you're not you're not getting
you know, we're not getting a pack of baseball cards tonight,
we're not getting know, you're not getting ice cream. And

(34:03):
he had like a meltdown. I'm like, I'm not giving in. Yes,
have they ever laughed in your face.

Speaker 10 (34:11):
Like when your daughter was growing up, because my son
does it, and then I start to laugh and I
have to hide.

Speaker 1 (34:16):
Yeah, this morning, I'm telling you, I'm sorry. This is
a counseling session though. Let me lay in the couch
while I tell you. Guys myself, I said to my
son this morning, I said, you'll get ready for school,
get your shoes on. We're running late, buddy boy, let's go,
and he goes, you're on the problem. I mean, he's
not wrong, what right, He's a smart kid. I'm like, imagine,

(34:40):
but Danny, imagine you have your shoes on, Rich?

Speaker 3 (34:44):
Were you ready?

Speaker 1 (34:44):
Were you ready? Rich? Imagine? He said, put on your shoes,
your big dummy man. That's great anyway, as I said yesterday,
one foot in dad life and one foot up your
ass every afternoon kicking ass here on Fox Sports Radio
having fun and Raphaeldevs wrapping this. We got to wrap
him up. Dude. When you're getting paid that sort of money,
and I get it, you're putting your reputation on the line,

(35:06):
but your professional ballplayer, I think you're playing sort of
with house money there, because even if you're not the best,
no one's expecting you to be, and it then looks
bad on management. If you're doing your best and that's
all anyone expects and you're making how much three hundred
million in ten years, whatever it is, you can go
out there and just do your best and if it

(35:27):
goes wrong, that's on them. It's not on you at
that point, because everybody knows that you don't play first base,
you're a third baseman. You weren't expected to play the
infield at all. But you got to step up for
your team. It's a team sport. Everybody steps up and
does things that are out of their wheelhouse every once
in a while. It's a growing and learning experience. You
gave a fantastic analogy before, so I'll repeat it and

(35:48):
then we'll move on. I told you the most fun
conversation of the day is coming up. But you gave
the analogy of if you have a general contractor and
he's like, yeah, I dude, drywall, sheet rock. I could
you know? I could do this? I could fix this.

Speaker 4 (36:00):
Hey, do you do bethroom tiles?

Speaker 7 (36:01):
No?

Speaker 1 (36:03):
Can you? I mean if I could probably figure it out,
but that's not my thing. We'll do the bathroom tiles.
If his job doesn't come out pristine. You can't get
mad at him. He's not a it's on the management.
He's not a first baseman. They misstepped. He wanted to
play third base, stay running, Bregman. But the disobedience that
he's sort of showing, I don't know if that's the

(36:23):
right word, unprofessionalism, whatever you want to call it. Oh,
maybe should pull it's a little it's a little interesting
because again he is calling them out, saying, Yo, they
messed up. Why are you trying to put me at first?
It's like, because we pay you, dude a lot of
money and you're a ballplayer. We're not asking you to
sell hot dogs in the stands. Maybe he should pull
a Benny. That's my son, you're the problem exactly. Yeah.

(36:46):
So it's an interesting story, guys, but I think he
has to get out there. It's a team game. People
step up. That's just what being a team's all about.
You're on the team. So again, unforeseen circumstance and Raphael
Devers has to zip it and get out there. Out
what buddy, No, I have the question of the day
that's gonna Oh okay, this is we got to get
to that. Okay, Yeah, let's promise you this is the

(37:07):
most fun one. Hang on, I'd like to alert all
the affiliates down the line. Yeah, question of the day.
This is like the hottest topic of the day. No,
you sent me a video I wanted to get to
today and it was some guy getting all mad about
the gym he worked at. This was wild. We're going
to talk about the rules of closing because there's a
guy that works at Planet Fitness. Right, the story goes,

(37:29):
some dude shows up Planet Fitness forty five minutes before closing,
So you got to keep that in mind. You never
want to be the guy that shows up as the
establishment's closing whatever it is, clothing story, all the rules
written down right here, right, start thinking about that. But
this guy shows up forty five minutes before closing, and

(37:50):
the guy that works at Planet Fitness is not having it.
Take a listen to this, this clown because we.

Speaker 12 (37:56):
Closed the gym at knock the team because we need
forty five minutes to clean the jet. No, every single fire.
I closed that door, and I'm fifteen if you come in.

Speaker 1 (38:04):
Here, and I'm entitled to close.

Speaker 12 (38:05):
My gym so I can clean it because I work here.

Speaker 4 (38:07):
Gym yes it is.

Speaker 8 (38:08):
It's not yours.

Speaker 12 (38:09):
Pay for it, all right, So go to another one.
You can go to as many gyms as you want.
I don't care how much you want to pay.

Speaker 1 (38:16):
Yo, this kid is mad right now. This kid's mad
because the gym is still open for forty five minutes
and he doesn't want any new customers. So I wrote
this down. I wrote down the rules of closing. Let
me give you what I consider some of the top
rules of closing. And I want to get the phones going.
As you always say the most interactive show here on

(38:37):
Fox Sports Radio, I always say, shake it out. That's
what I say. Scott Free, I am Scott for Elsa's
that's what I say. So the rules of closing, you
have to be considerate and as they say, read the situation,
read the room. If you go to the supermarket and

(38:58):
they close Ralphs or show opera wherever you go at
ten pm, you you can't go in there at nine
to fifty five and expect to go through the whole store.
I'm getting my meats for the week, and my bread's
and my betspe mosyan. Yeah. If you go to let's
say the pharmacy CBS, right, aid Walgreens and you need
children's pinal because your kid has a you know, get

(39:21):
a little sick. That's an in and out. If it's
nine to fifty eight and you tell the person at
the register like it's right there, I'm gonna run and
grab it. Thank you so much.

Speaker 4 (39:30):
That's okay.

Speaker 1 (39:30):
I have to do the universal in and out signal
in and out. Listen, I'm in and out, in and out. Sorry.
If you go to a restaurant that closes kitchen closes
at nine thirty, I don't think you could sit down
after nine pm. I think if you sit down at nine,
maybe five after ten after I don't I know they
got to close at nine thirty. No, they got to

(39:52):
clean up, and the kitchen's gotta close. But I don't
think you can be ordering entrees when they say the
kitchen closes like in fifteen minutes. He's got to be
a half hour nine ten. I think, yeah, yeah, you
got to give him twenty to thirty minutes. I think,
because they're still gonna be there. I'll give you one
that my buddy used to have a major problem with
my friend growing up. But your hold on home on
I gotta I gotta interject here because you did say

(40:12):
read the room. Sometimes you'll go to an establishment and
they're closing in about a half hour and they're like, no,
it's okay. If they're like it's okay, we still have
a few, it's okay, and you believe that they're not
mad about it, then yeah, I think you could do it.
I've seen people be like, listen, I'm here till eleven o'clock,
no matter what, I don't worry about whatever. If it's
that sort of thing, then yeah, I think you sit down,

(40:33):
my buddy. Do you remember, I don't think they are
around anymore. Do you guys remember TCB Why? Oh, of course?
Was it the country's best yogurt? Remember the og frozen yogurt.
My buddy used to throw a fit like a little
baby bee when someone would come in five minutes before
closing and be like could I get a milkshake? Because
he had already washed the machines. So in my mind,

(40:54):
if you go to an ice cream spot, I don't
think if maybe your buddy's a little too ambitious trying
to get out of tcby sooner than he should. I
think ice cream shops because they got to clean those
like milkshake machines and the blenders. I think, can they
just put one scoop on a sugar cone for you?
I think that's okay. You're just a milkshake issue. I

(41:14):
think I think it's a milkshake. I think everybody knows
the frustration though. Whatever story you ever worked, and if
you ever worked in retail or at a restaurant or whatever,
you've experienced this before and it's aggravating. So yeah, you
don't want to put anyone else in that aggravating situation.
But I don't think that's what's going on here. You're
gonna tell me the guy couldn't get a nice half
hour workout in the gym, had forty five minutes left

(41:36):
before closing. Yeah, and I understand again, Like I said,
I understand the aggravation. I used to work at a
closed store. I worked at Bennigan's. I've worked a bunch
of different stupid places, but I would work at a
closed store and it was like clockwork Friday night. You're
trying to get out. We used to have a nickname
for this guy. Some guy would come in just for
his like Friday night outfit. You're like, oh, we're closing
this guy's trying on jeans and we used to call

(41:57):
him mister Butt because he had like an oddly fat ass,
like it was weird, right, It's like there's a guy
that bus guy was like rocking the cakes. You're like
mister and we would say, oh, this mister but is
here again. It's ridiculous. I thought you're trying on Levi's
we gotta go. It's Friday night.

Speaker 3 (42:13):
I thought you were gonna call him like last minute
Larry or something. But it's mister, mister butt. And everyone knew, like,
mister but this guy's got kidding but head. He comes
in here just to try jeans out of it Friday night.

Speaker 1 (42:22):
We're closing in ten minutes and then the thirty three,
the thirty Forestrom knives. But they're a little ton of
my buttox sweating on. Dude. There's people to this day
that I worked with. I remember, mister butt. And when
you when you work at a closed door, it's different.
Forever you mentioned the ice cream machine, they just start
rummaging through the jeans. You got to refold them and
the shirts and they just start making a mess after

(42:44):
you just cleaned it all up. Mister But would be
there like clockwork, like this guy was it? Why did
you wait last minute? Some people don't understand like the
code of ethics involved of yo, dude, we're closing, like
you gotta get there. A little earlier. You mentioned the
tile on all that's in emergency exception, right, So that's
there's a major difference there. Don't be that guy, and

(43:06):
I don't think that's what was happening in this very
viral story we speak of right now. What I think
is this kid was trying to get out and he
misrepresented planet fitness. That's the key word. He's trying to
get out.

Speaker 3 (43:18):
If you work, and if he works at somewhere where
it has hours of operation set hours and it closes
at a certain time, you should not have the expectation
that you are leaving when the place closed, right if
you're the employee, there has to be time where you're
closed and you're cleaning and after that.

Speaker 1 (43:33):
I think we're seeing a generational problem, which is that
right there, uh, clock hit five, I'm out, Like you're
trying to get ahead of things, right, but it's like
it's like yo, man's jump and chill out. And then
this kid misrepresenting a major company cursing at a customer.
It's like no one takes that pride in their work anymore.
And I know it's a tired argument, but I think

(43:54):
that's what's going on in this situation. You go to
your gym and they're not closing for another forty five minute. Again,
a nice little twenty five minutes, thirty minute pumpin, And
that's what was going on. I'm not listening to some kid,
some young ass pimpleneck do weep telling me to go.
I'd be like, get out of here, beat it, pay membership.

Speaker 2 (44:13):
COVID our group chat when we were all looking at
this video, the first comment Brenda Maide was you know
what she said. I noticed this with a lot of
younger employees. Now they think that we're lucky that they're
waiting on us because nobody else wants their job nowadays,
so they feel like they can treat customers however they
want to because nobody else wants their job.

Speaker 1 (44:33):
Yeah. And by the way, the gym, Danny, how many
times has anyone been to a gym where, let's say
they do close at ten. At nine o'clock, they'll come
on the thing and we have one hour left, So
you know, if you need to take a shower, act accordingly,
they'll give you an hour, half hour, fifteen minute. Most
gyms I know New York Sports Club that did that

(44:53):
in New York twenty four hour across the street, I
know gives you the little little heads up.

Speaker 10 (44:58):
I think that there's such a balance though as well,
to make it work. If you show up at nine
point fifteen and they're mopping around the treadmills, guess what,
I'm probably not gonna get a run in tonight. But
if it's if it's a problem like saying, hey, you know,
after a while, maybe maybe you say something to the
manager of hey, I get off work at nine this

(45:19):
is the only time I can get a run in.

Speaker 1 (45:21):
Can you do whatever?

Speaker 10 (45:22):
But I do think there's I completely agree with the
person who has the membership, not the worker in this situation.
But if you do see people cleaning up and doing
stuff in a certain area, maybe you just don't do
that exercise.

Speaker 1 (45:34):
Agree that there's a balance of hey, I'm a customer
versus there's a code of just not being an a hole. Really, like,
you know, you don't want to be the person that's like, oh,
you're closing the kitchen at ten pm, it's nine fifty nine.
Let me take a look at the appetizers. You don't
want to be that guy.

Speaker 2 (45:50):
You know what about when you're lined up for a
business and they don't tell you that person is the
last one, so it's a long line. Like you see
this a lot during the holidays. I stood out side
had one of those Pandora stores for those overpriced charms
for my girl, and there was probably ten of us
in line. They got to like the third person because
they closed their door. So the line is right out

(46:10):
the door, and right at ten pm, the lady came
out and said, I'm sorry, this person's the last one.

Speaker 1 (46:16):
All of us had been waiting for over a half hour.
You gotta indicate where the end of the line is,
you know, you know what. This happens a lot theme parks,
like if your kids want to take a picture with
Goofy or Captain America or whatever park you're at, they'll
be like, all right, and you'll be the last person.
And they have someone stand there unfortunately telling other people like, yeah,
this is this is the end. Oh that's that's a

(46:36):
pain of the butt, Danny.

Speaker 11 (46:37):
Huh.

Speaker 3 (46:37):
The post office does this well, you just get in
the door. If you're in the door and then they're closing,
they pretty much close the door and let they'll let
people out, but you got to just be in the
door because if you try to get.

Speaker 1 (46:47):
After themselfs eighty years old, what do you do? Well?

Speaker 3 (46:50):
Because the post office has weird hours like banks do, right,
Like they don't actually cater to people who are like
regular customers. That art like we're gonna close at five three.
People are getting off work at five thirty, right like
the bank is like we're only going to be open
for like an hour and a half on a Saturday.

Speaker 1 (47:05):
Like what good does that serve anything?

Speaker 10 (47:06):
Banks should open at noon, like truly close at seven
pm noon to eight.

Speaker 1 (47:11):
But this particular story, again that went viral today from
Planet Fitness, I think just exemplifies a growing and bigger
problem that we all witness. And that's again the lack
of courtesy with the younger employees, the fact that they
don't respect the customer, the fact that they don't care
about the hours, are staying even a minute longer than
they have to, you know, And it's a real problem.

(47:33):
And I sympathize with the guy because I can't imagine
for the life of me, some young punk talking to
me that way because he wants to get out when
I'm trying to get a workout in. Just put yourself
in that situation, guys for a minute. I get mad
what a young person tells me to do something, even
when I'm wrong. That's what I mean. I tried. I
went to I brought a big Starbucks coffee into the

(47:54):
movie theater and the kid goes, you can't bring outside
drinks in. I said, that's cute, and I just walking. Yeah,
look and I did. I was wrong, but that and
we're coming from a place of we get it. Everybody
wants to get home and wrap the day up. And
we've been there before. But forty five minutes before the
gym closes, that's the story as we know it, and

(48:14):
much like that one hundred men Versus Gorilla. Don't be
surprised if you see this goes a little more viral
over the weekend because they keep seeing it pop up.

Speaker 4 (48:22):
Viral.

Speaker 1 (48:22):
Gym guy, take one more listen, then we'll take some feedback.
We close the gym Atno. Fifteen because we need forty
five minutes to clean the gym.

Speaker 5 (48:29):
No.

Speaker 12 (48:29):
Every single Friday. I closed that door at no.

Speaker 4 (48:31):
Fifteen.

Speaker 12 (48:31):
If you come in, I'm led here and I'm entitled
to close my gym so I can clean it because
I work in the gym.

Speaker 1 (48:37):
Yes it is. It's not yours.

Speaker 4 (48:39):
I pay for it, all right, So.

Speaker 12 (48:40):
Go to another one. You can go to as many
gyms as you want. I don't care how much you
want to.

Speaker 1 (48:44):
Beg yep, And they escorts them out like aggressively. And
it's not it's not like a big intimidating kid. It's
just really just But he's this is the problem.

Speaker 3 (48:56):
You can hear it in the first couple of sentences,
like I close my gym at nine to fifteen, but
he's saying that he likes to start cleaning up at
nine to fifteen. The gym has not closed it for
another forty five minutes exactly.

Speaker 1 (49:06):
Yeah, So why it's viral bub Bubba and Redding. You're
all with Conveno on ritch, hey bubba, hey, what so on? Gentlemen?

Speaker 11 (49:12):
Hey man, So that guy's trash.

Speaker 6 (49:18):
You guys are completely nail on the head. I work
at a restaurant.

Speaker 8 (49:23):
It's forty five minutes to an hour.

Speaker 6 (49:25):
Yeah, that's the cutoff for me and and Bubba.

Speaker 1 (49:29):
We're pretty right on as far as like, also, you'll
be courteous, like you're not going to start ordering five
course meals when the kitchen's about to close, right, I
mean that's also you gotta be Can I get a
bottle of wine with that? Can you open that for me? Yeah?

Speaker 6 (49:40):
Yeah, I agree with you guys.

Speaker 1 (49:42):
Yep, you the man. Yeah. You never want to keep
people there extremely longer than they have to. You got
to be respectful. But the respect goes both ways here, man,
and I feel like we're losing as the customer in
today's society. I don't want to sound like the grumpy
old guy, but we're all seeing it. Eight seven seven

Okay, cool, nice, All right, here's what we gotta do,
Danny g want to explain the rules. Yeah, here's how
it works.

Speaker 2 (51:56):
I've done extensive research on Coach and Coveno and their
young girl old friends. Each member of the crew is
going to read a fun fact and then Steve, you
gotta tell us is it Steve Covino or Bill Belichick?
You have five chances to get too correct for a
beautiful swiggy and Rich is going to read the first
fun fact.

Speaker 1 (52:14):
Before I read my fun fact. I want to let
it be known your Jordan is allowed here at work. Yes,
if she wanted, if she wanted to stop by. And
her name is pronounced Jordan with a y, it's not Jordan.
There was calling her Jordan all of a sudden. You know,
I guess Portnoy calls her, Jordan, how did that become?
Because it's when, all right, here's my fact, Steve. Is

(52:37):
this Covino or Belichick? He was once seen inside a
Las Vegas casino wearing an AB simulator belt, you know,
one of the a little stimulator, the little things that
shake your abs. Once caught inside a Vegas casino wearing
an AB stimulator belt. Cavino or Belichick? Yes, Oh, why

(53:00):
was he so confident that it was me? He was,
You didn't hesitate at all. You want to explain yourself.
We got this new product sent to us through radio
comercial item that stimulates your your abs. You know, you
had to gel up your belly. And he was slapped
this belt on and I just had it on. I
kind of forgotten. I just left it on, and then

(53:21):
someone called me out on it, and I'm like, yeah,
I'm having a workout to stay out here.

Speaker 11 (53:25):
How do you leave your hotel room forgetting that you
have a shock in that belt sizzled my abs?

Speaker 1 (53:31):
That Danny, he's right, but I was the one that
saw this was a real nice hotel too. We ow
my abs. He did this intentionally, and I think we
faintly heard like a and I remember we had got
this delivered vibrating, he had got this delivered to the
radio station. It was you jelly up your belly like

(53:53):
almost like an ultrasound. You put this belt on and
let's take red sixty your shirt, lift up your shirt.
So yeah, that was me.

Speaker 2 (54:04):
You're right, Stephen Alaska halfway to a swiggy. Dan Byer
is gonna read the second fun fact.

Speaker 10 (54:09):
His Jordan wrote a post on Instagram that said she
quote was basically born on the water end quote Gavino
or Belichick which Jordan was born.

Speaker 1 (54:20):
On the water, born on the water, I've seen.

Speaker 8 (54:21):
Oh Bellachick, Yes, just like that.

Speaker 2 (54:29):
The board Steve and Juna Alaska, you are a winner
there and Juno, Congratulations. We're gonna mail out a shiny
new sea in our swiggy to you. Yeah, and she's
she's from Maine. She she like is all for the
fishermen there. Remember we learned that fun fact that Yeah.

Speaker 1 (54:45):
Yeah, and she thinks she's a mermaid too when she's like, yeah,
floating around with Bill. She loves lopstock.

Speaker 2 (54:50):
Yeah, her dad and grandpa took her out to the
water so much. She said she feels like she was
born on the water.

Speaker 1 (54:56):
I'll tell you what, I really love this game. But
the more and more I hear about these two, I
don't even want to be compared with them. So so, hey,
congratulations man, Hey Steve, thank you by it? All right,
shout out to all the Steves. Here goes another lucky winner.
If you want to qualify for a Swiggy, you could
just leave a nice review wherever you stream your podcast,
search Covino and Rich and leave a nice review for us.

(55:19):
But yeah, man, the big story today was well, Pablo
Torri said he had sources right that said that Belichick's
Jordaan was banned at USC and the facilities and practices,
and she's overstepping and you are hearing rumblings that the
family's concerned, right, because look at it this way. We
don't know the truth. We don't know what Bill Belichick
really wants and what he is saying. And you know,

(55:43):
as far as all of this, but here's a guy
who is the coach of the most alpha men around
and he's being bossed around by a twenty four year
old woman, or that's how it appears, or maybe that's
what he wants, don't he works for his brand. That's
not Listen, Cowhard was the one guy from the beginning
that said, yeah, she's so also acting like a PR
specialist for a guy that needs to maybe I see,

(56:05):
you know, attract younger fans, but at his expense, I
don't know. It looks a little weird. So today, the
report from Pablo Tori and other media publications after that
was that she was banned, and then TMZ did some
research to say, now completely not true. She wasn't banned
from anywhere or anything. So that was a fake story

(56:25):
today and your Jordan's all out here at Fox Sports Day,
I got it banned, all right?

Speaker 4 (56:29):
Cool?

Speaker 1 (56:29):
