Speaker 2 (00:16):
The iHeartRadio app by searching the FSR.

Speaker 1 (00:23):
Denzel Clark robbed a home run. Now, please pay attention
to what I'm about to say. By the way, twenty
five years old, we can only gather that his parents
huge Denzel fans.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
I mean it's possible. I don't know any other Denzel's you.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
I mean, Denzel Washington, the best actor ever. He's so
damn cool, he's so darned clever. Love me some Denzel.
So to his parents, I imagine you're right, Rich, Oh,
I feel like a lot of times now when you
see a young athlete with the name of someone that
was popular twenty years ago, you connect the dots.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
That's our path. That's twenty five thousand dollars outpass. I
think it's safe to say so. Was that a.

Speaker 1 (01:03):
Top five home run robbery of all time? Of our lifetime?
And now I'm going with all time he's Canadian, by
the way.

Speaker 2 (01:15):
Or oh, Denzel a sorry?

Speaker 1 (01:18):
Or are we just prisoner of the moment because it's
fresh in our minds. We just saw it. We all
watched an amazement. It lives forever on social media. You
saw it a million times, you saw it in slow motion,
you saw it from the bullpen camera, you saw every
possible angle.

Speaker 2 (01:32):
So again, is it a top.

Speaker 1 (01:33):
Five home run robbery of our lifetime or just prisoner
of the moment? And I'm gonna tell you, I really
honestly believe and I have a reason why it really
was a top five because not only did he snag
a ball home run that was like five or six
feet as they described it over the fence, but he

(01:54):
landed it with such gracefulness even.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
The Russian Judge game with ten point zero.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
Yeah, like he did that, like the glove swoop around
the fence, spun around, landed it, growled, spit crowded again,
everyone's here, like what all the facial reactions, like everything
about it was so cool, man.

Speaker 2 (02:16):
So I have to say top five easily.

Speaker 1 (02:19):
And hey, if you don't believe me, guys like Tory
Hunter were posting about it. Tory Hunter actually tweeted, this
has to be one of the best catches I've ever seen,
and I've seen my share of home run robberies. The
Spider Man himself, who's climbed many of walls to snag
some home runs. Just everything about this one I think
felt like, Wow, that was a magical catch. Now the

(02:42):
moment really didn't matter that much. It wasn't like, you know,
a magical ninth inning game saving.

Speaker 2 (02:49):
Me, you know what I mean.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
But the question is in most impactful important catch? Its
what's the greatest robbery of all time? And I'll tell
you this, if you just say catch rich, Yeah, that's debatable,
will be here forever comes to home run robberies. When
you think of the loft ins, you have to go
out of the world. You have to go out of
this country and into Asia somewhere to compete with this catch.
Like there's some dude that climbs the wall. You ever

(03:11):
see that one? He has one foot like on the
top of the wall.

Speaker 2 (03:15):
They sure that's real, Yeah, that's real.

Speaker 1 (03:17):
There's a dude from the Japanese League that climbs the wall,
has one foot on the top of the wall, leaning
into the stands and snags one, all right, almost the schools.
The guy that runs through the wall, there's nothing. I
saw one guy whose head falls over the fence. You
remember that, he hits into the wall and his head
falls over the wall. I saw a tiger run on
the field once. That was remarkable. I remember that. And

(03:39):
actually he was the same game sports car by shortstop.
I think that was the same it was. It was
that naked gun. I don't think I think we're thinking
of maybe, but I'm going one of the greatest home
run robberies ever, dude. And that just adds to what
everybody's already saying anyway, that baseball's popping, and the rate
and the ratings prove it. Yeah, listen, I love to

(03:59):
disagree with you, because that's sort of I get joy
is we agree. I get joy disagreeing with you, but
won't disagree when we talk jazz chism. Nothing bothers me
more then will we talk a lot about Prisoner of
the moment. Nothing bothers me more than because it's now.
It doesn't get any credit the social media feedback of like, yeah,
well what about Willie Mains or Jim Edmonds or this?

(04:21):
How about you appreciate what are the dopest catches. Yeah,
but what about forget about what about about I think
this was by far. I'm gonna say right now the
number one home run robbery of all time. You show
me a play that's better than that. I'm trying to
be modest and say top five easy. You know what
you're doing that because you don't want to be prisoner.

(04:41):
There's Loftons, there's Griffy's, there's Hunters, there's other ones. There's
a guy, there's international ones. There's guys that have taken
a step, maybe prop themselves against the wall, jumped up, listen, impactful,
higher stakes. There's been ones with higher stakes. My dude,
Andy Chavez on the Mets. That was the moment, was big.

Speaker 2 (05:00):
A playoff game pulls the ball back in. That was
a snow cone, big moment, playoff, I get it.

Speaker 1 (05:05):
But as far as athletic ability, this guy sized it up,
saw where the wall was right time, did climb the wall, jumped,
leaned over, spun around, landed, flexed.

Speaker 3 (05:20):
Don't forget about that Gary Matthews rob look that one up.
If you forget it's very similar.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
Now, as far as great catches that almost robbed the
home run, I always think of the Chicago White Sox
outfielder Dwayne Wise. Remember in the ninth inning he made
that ridiculous catch for Yankee.

Speaker 2 (05:37):
Yeah, I believe he saved the perfect game of Mark Burley.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
Yeah again, which honestly has to be up there too
because of the moment itself, Right, there was a higher
stake moment ye had at Gary Matthews Junior catch.

Speaker 2 (05:49):
I do remember that.

Speaker 1 (05:50):
People do call that one of the greatest home run
robberies of all times.

Speaker 2 (05:54):
Yeah, I mean he was just a good one. Thing.
I forgot about that one. Yeah again, another guy known
for that.

Speaker 1 (05:59):
But if you get anything out of this, this Denzel
Clark dude is a name you should look out for
when it comes to these highlights.

Speaker 2 (06:07):
Why he did not everybody could do?

Speaker 1 (06:09):
Why are we so scared to put it in the
top three, Like we're gonna be punished for ooh go,
like we're forgetting someone because you want to be Gary
Matthews Junior. I know the one you speak of. He
was a robbery artist. This guy was a you know,
contortionist on that play. He would make miraculous catches. Of course,
Jim Edmonds, best known for laying out not so much

(06:29):
a home run robber as much as a guy that
just extended like you thought, no way, it's out of reach.

Speaker 2 (06:34):
I think that's what it is. Rich.

Speaker 3 (06:35):
You'd have to compile all of them, and people forget
some of them. So obviously the newer ones are in
our mind right now.

Speaker 1 (06:42):
I saw a banana, a Savannah Bananas clip where the
guy flipped and caught it at the same time. By
the way, I don't want to change subjects, and I won't,
but I will, But I won't, but I will. I
watched the Savannah Bananas over the weekend, and I think
it's so much fun and what they're doing is amazing
for baseball and sports and entertainment. Selling out seventy plus
thousand people, it really is entertaining.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
But the umpire flips on every out like, hey man,
you gotta be a chat to do.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
We're talking about every out, every pitch or so. They're
they're doing something. Their attention span is that of Algetty. Yeah,
you're trying to cater to a generation kids that need
that constant stimulation.

Speaker 2 (07:23):
So it's next level entertainment.

Speaker 1 (07:26):
So again, if you haven't seen the clip, then I
guess you didn't check social media at all in the
past twenty four hours, but we urge you to check
it out and decide for yourself. We hear on the
Covino and Rich show say, if it's not the greatest
home run robbery of all time, is definitely top five.
And if you missed it, take a listen to how

(07:47):
it went down again. The Angels and the Oakland. I'm sorry,
the a's.

Speaker 2 (07:54):
Now the one all Fish and Nolan Shanoval left had
hit or five ball left center. Denzel going back here
in the track, get the track right to the wall.
Ley Bi climbing the wall? Did he catch it? Pick Dad?
You can't believe, but this kid is Jowagan center field.

Speaker 4 (08:10):
Damn.

Speaker 5 (08:11):
He got himself suspended on top of the wall and
brought it back for out number two.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
Yoh. He jumped so high day it is a highlight show.

Speaker 1 (08:20):
His ass was on the top of the wall and
then he swoops his glove around and spins around again
so gracefully. It was done so perfectly. When you see
it in slow motion, it really is like wow. He
I don't know how he did that, And but that's
why a young man twenty five years old, this is
his first season in the Bigs, and we talked about this.
We said, what do you think it would be like

(08:41):
to get called up and you're on the a's with
no real home. Well, that's what Denzel's living and he's
making the best of it this point.

Speaker 2 (08:48):
Wait, wait, what a way to make a Napiers.

Speaker 3 (08:50):
Played for the Stockton Ports and he played right here
near us for cal State Northridge.

Speaker 2 (08:55):
All right, put this in perspective. By the way, Dan
with big beagers right hit the pitcher's face, show that everybody.
Everybody's like what.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
When you see your peers and they're in shock and
they're professional baseball players and they're like, that was like
a banana type catch in the Bigs?

Speaker 2 (09:13):
How did that happen?

Speaker 1 (09:14):
Those are the things you try to do in a
wiffle ball game and you never get that opportunity because
it takes so many factors for that to happen. The
ball has to be in perfect placement, perfect jump, perfect snag.
He catches it over the wall all the way up
and they're in disbelief, and.

Speaker 2 (09:32):
You, as the viewer, the same thing.

Speaker 1 (09:34):
So if you missed it, watch it and your thoughts
at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio eight seven
to seven ninety nine on Fox they went in top five.
There's so many layers as to why this catch is remarkable.
The timing, the ups he had, the eye hand, the landing,
everything about it. You have your friend's soft toss you
balls over offense, so to try to re enact it,

(09:56):
and it would take you a thousand times to try
to complete something close if you played any level of baseball.
What happens when you're an outfielder and you're getting close
to the wall. Your teammates are screaming like, yo, you
got room, or like you're close, you're close, Like there's
that fear of you.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
Don't want to run yeah, and it's on a split second.

Speaker 1 (10:13):
I mean, like you said, remember that highlight of the
guy that ran against wall and his head fell off.
That was naked gun. I'm sorry that was naked gun,
but reconfirmed. Yeah, you don't want to get injured. So
this guy's timing it, he has the wherewithals to where
he is on the warning track and everything about it.
I hate the fact that there's a sense of wanting

(10:33):
to downplay.

Speaker 2 (10:34):
There's been better. How about we just give this dude.

Speaker 1 (10:37):
Denzel Clark twenty five year old young man's flowers, as
they say, give this dude, given the whole bouquet. Man
the end, I'm sending him an edible arrangement and some
flowers of candles.

Speaker 2 (10:50):
Shape my Fo're.

Speaker 1 (10:51):
Sending him a balloon with it for an extra five bucks.
It says, congrats. I think it was as cool as
hell it was. I want to bring up one thing
real quick, and I'm tying into sports because I want
to know your distraction level.

Speaker 2 (11:04):
And by the way, welcome back, Iowa, Samuel. How are
you good? I'm great, sam How good to see you?

Speaker 1 (11:08):
Good to see you, guys, I was saying, you're I
hate to say this to you, give you too much props,
but you're like my security blanket. When I see you,
I feel like the show's whole. So good you, buddy.
How wonderful to see you somewhere Dann Bayer like his
favorite blankie.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
Danny g The whole crew is here today. I love it.

Speaker 1 (11:24):
I got to ask last night our video guy, Spotty,
him and I met an old friend out for dinner.
That old I's not even forty day, he's like thirty something.
When I say old, we've known him a long time.
Our buddy Mark.

Speaker 3 (11:35):
People think you're hanging out with Edmundeezer, please say longtime friend.

Speaker 2 (11:39):
Longtime friend.

Speaker 1 (11:41):
We went out to a sassy la restaurant, a place
said I was down for because I wasn't paying, A
place called Craig.

Speaker 2 (11:49):
I knew he was flipping the bill. I would have
made it saucy and sassy.

Speaker 1 (11:53):
Craig's is one of those like celebrity type hangouts, zesty
and the whole time on the way there stop iOS,
people were saying, like, oh, that's where the TMZ is
usually outside because that you know, popstars and people go there.
So I'm there with our buddy Spot and our pal Mark.
And when I tell you, I ask you not five

(12:15):
feet away from me. We are seated yesterday next to
Angelina Jolie and it was mildly distracting the whole meal.

Speaker 2 (12:25):
When mildly distracting, how do you not notice that.

Speaker 1 (12:27):
So five feet away from you the whole meal, You're
having your appetizer, sipping your cocktail, and you're like, Angelina
Jolie and I every so often are making eye contact
because our tables are next to each other and we're
facing each other.

Speaker 2 (12:40):
You think she's looking at you she would give me.

Speaker 1 (12:44):
You hear this, what a subtle bract that never happened.

Speaker 6 (12:48):
You think she's listening to the conversation and like judging
you and how cool you are?

Speaker 1 (12:51):
If you mean Rich was gawking at her the entire time,
so she's like, why is this guy looking at me?

Speaker 2 (12:56):
And every so often she looked back at me. She
locked eye. We were making eye contact, and then she
locked eyes with security.

Speaker 7 (13:04):
Sure she saw you because you're in her field of view,
but I don't think you were locking eyes.

Speaker 2 (13:08):
But I was in her field of view. Hence we
were giving each other eyes.

Speaker 8 (13:11):
Wow, she was thinking Brad who precisely on the twenties,
more like Billy Bob who on the twenty year anniversary
of Mister and Missus Smith, Billy Bob who get out
of you?

Speaker 1 (13:23):
So I want to tie it to sports because I
know we got a lot of big sports fans. It's
Fox Sports radio or music acting.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
Can you have a reasonably.

Speaker 1 (13:34):
Non distracted dinner if a celebrity, an a list athlete,
a rock star, a Lady Gaga or Taylor Swift. This
is Angelina Jolie now spot I try not because it
could be a character actor and you're just fixated the
whole time trying to think about how you know that
person or just someone you met along the way, like

(13:54):
how do I know that? So you can't even concentrate
on a non celebrity because you're just you're you're racking
your rain trying to figure out who that is and
why you know them. So let's say answers, No, we
had a great dinner spot and great company, but would
you agree twenty five percent of the conversation at least
how to do with like Jolie's next to us?

Speaker 2 (14:13):
It was an exercise and focus, really was? It really was.
I can't even taste of food.

Speaker 6 (14:17):
I can't even enjoy the food because I'm next to
Angeline Julie.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
What was she? But what does she try?

Speaker 1 (14:21):
So, Danny g let's say you and Brenda go out
for your anniversary. It's our anniversary. It's a beautiful night
for you and your beautiful wife. Would it be more
distracting than fun? If let's say Lebron and his wife
were sitting at the table next to you.

Speaker 2 (14:36):
Did that make the night fun? Or is it like
we can't even enjoy our anniversary just peeking over Lebron
the whole time.

Speaker 3 (14:41):
It's definitely distracting. We were at lunch one time and
Christina Million was at the table.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
Next time, Oh dip it low, bro, And it was.

Speaker 3 (14:49):
Just awkward the whole time because you you you by nature,
you want to see what they order. You're watching other
people interact with them and come up to them, trying
to get autographs or talk to them. So yeah, it
just takes over everything that's happening.

Speaker 1 (15:02):
No, it reminds me of the famous story of Charlie
Murphy when he's partying with Rick James and he walks
into the party and.

Speaker 2 (15:08):
He's like, yeah, man O J.

Speaker 1 (15:09):
Simpson was there and head, Hey was so big man
also is his big head.

Speaker 2 (15:15):
I mean it happens once a while.

Speaker 1 (15:16):
I mean, Spot you and I happen to be in
Vegas one time, and I believe Rao's the Italian restaurant. Yeah,
and we sat next to Darius Rucker, Hoody and the
Blowfish and Vince Gill.

Speaker 2 (15:26):
We're eating together, and the whole time Spot.

Speaker 1 (15:28):
And I were like, yeah, we're enjoying our dinner, but
how do you not every couple of minutes peek over
and be like, hey, I wonder what.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
Who'd be doing? Couldn't focus on my meat balls? Ook
at who taking a bite? I mean, Dan, bye, would
you be able to focus? Well, I'll tell you what.

Speaker 5 (15:40):
It's hard, and I don't want to be the topper guy,
but there's nothing like taking your mom to a nice
steakhouse when she comes out to southern California and have
the mom from Family Ties Meredith Baxter two tables over,
try that one?

Speaker 2 (15:55):
Yes, how did she had dropped the Bernie by then?
Changes in our life? But still like you want to
talk about it? So bars behind.

Speaker 5 (16:05):
Mom, your mom's Alex p. Keaton's mom two tables down?
Your mom was your second favorite mom at that meal. Yes,
there was no mix showing up either.

Speaker 1 (16:14):
Wow, the Buyer family, the eighties memories flowed back in
all the Family Ties nights. What a night, by the way,
that is funny. Your mom probably like this is how
Dan is?

Speaker 2 (16:25):
This is my life now?

Speaker 9 (16:26):
Mom?

Speaker 2 (16:26):
I'm sorry, this is my life now?

Speaker 1 (16:28):
It was Elise Keaton right, yes, Steven Elise Keaton. Man, Wow,
that's that's pretty uh yeah, way to one up the conversation.

Speaker 2 (16:36):
D Yeah, I don't mean to end it, you know.

Speaker 5 (16:37):
Good luck topping everybody, seriously good luck, but I'm sorry,
I just had to do it.

Speaker 2 (16:42):
No.

Speaker 1 (16:42):
Look, it's a very la story, rich, but I think
it doesn't even have to be a celebrity. It's someone
that I recognize that person and it's bothering me, and
you keep looking back and like do you know that person?

Speaker 2 (16:56):
Why do I know that person?

Speaker 1 (16:58):
It's just that feeling and you can't constant anything else
in that moment, especially when it's at least Keaton or Angelina.

Speaker 2 (17:06):
I was Sam, don't do it, I was Sam said
he wanted to top you. Dan.

Speaker 1 (17:09):
He once went out with his mom for ice cream
and bumped into Joanna Kurns.

Speaker 2 (17:12):
No, I didn't want to be the topper, Maggie. I
didn't want to be the topper. No ch Wow, man,
Maggie Malone.

Speaker 5 (17:21):
Sorry Dan, jealous man, Man, But you know it's gonna
say he sat next to Maam from Webster.

Speaker 2 (17:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (17:30):
Yeah, I only know where his Mam George, I know
where his missus Papadopoulos, Mam Papadopoulos. So just just a
dumb thought that. Listen, it's always fun banter for the
table and a memory that you know you end up
telling these stories, right, But if you really were on
a special night, your daughter's graduation or a date night,

(17:51):
an anniversary. It could be actually a little distracting where
you're like, hey, we're trying to focus, but Michael Jordan's
at the steakhouse.

Speaker 2 (18:00):
He's over there in the corner.

Speaker 1 (18:02):
It could almost be a negative, yeah, because it takes
away from the reason you're really there, which is to
catch up. But it's a fun memory and that really
did happen. And again we're out here in Los Angeles,
but that's like, that's sort of a rarity. You'll see
someone randomly famous every once in a while, but Angelina
Jolie out and about on a Tuesday night, let me

(18:24):
name drop. We were at the Baseball All Star Game
in Kansas City, which was what maybe over a decade ago.

Speaker 2 (18:31):
Now hopefully we're going this year.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
I hope is that twenty eleven, four ten, Well, long
story short, we're in the press area and incomes George
Brett with a plate of barbecue and he's.

Speaker 2 (18:46):
Like, burn ins. Anyone want burn In's, I'm George Brett.

Speaker 1 (18:49):
He came in like the welcoming committee. I couldn't believe.
And it was like one of the coolest moments but
I can't lie and say the whole time I'm sitting
in there.

Speaker 2 (18:57):
Cavino and I were like, get George Brett, George, should
we talk to him? George giving and barbecue. I was like, Hey,
George Bretty, happen to have you here in Kansas City.
Welcome to the old story greame. I'm George Brett. Nice
to meet you, like George Brett.

Speaker 1 (19:11):
So these are these are real fun stories that I'm
sure everyone shares at Wow, but really is mildly distracting
in a funny way. But I just figured I throw
it out there because if you're out to dinner on
your anniversary and you're you're having a little dinner steak
dinner in OKC and SGA's.

Speaker 2 (19:32):
At the next table, that could be distracting.

Speaker 1 (19:35):
Very very Hey, we got a lot to get to
today on Cavino on Rich Speaking of going out, Cavino
and Danny g I don't know if we all agree
you're not on this. How do you like to be
addressed by workers and staff at places? Do you get
offended if they start calling you nicknames? As a story
Kavino wants to share, We'll get to that live from

He deserves it.

Speaker 1 (21:22):
Whether it's the top one, top five, it's it's in there.
The guy is magical in center field, twenty five years old,
first year.

Speaker 2 (21:29):
Now what else are we going to see from this guy?
That's exciting? Right, And we were talking about.

Speaker 3 (21:36):
He also crashed into the wall and made that catch.
You to see that awesome.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
But ye're showing all of his highlights now on all
the different networks, so he's already a highlight reel one year,
and so we are blessed to have this guy. So
we also talked about is it distracting if you see
an athlete or a celebrity or someone at a restaurant
sitting next to you and birch who you know he
runs his place under big mic Maine editor Birsch saying, Junior,

(22:01):
he was at a book too, and he's like, I
was sitting next to exhibit. Really said, I flew on
a plane right next to exhibit.

Speaker 2 (22:10):
Is that? What is he?

Speaker 1 (22:10):
Pimp your pasta so funny, but exhibit my plate.

Speaker 5 (22:16):
The joke Sam was he was exhibiting a right, doesn't that?

Speaker 2 (22:22):
Yes, the.

Speaker 1 (22:25):
Exhibited there you go, exhibit in a a lot to
get to today. I know it's not the biggest day
in the world of sports, but that doesn't matter for
us because we could talk about anything. And that leads
me to pit my platter, my platter. That leads me
to whether or not you get frustrated when random people.

Speaker 2 (22:44):
At stores call you nicknames.

Speaker 1 (22:46):
Well, speaking of flights, the story of me and exhibit
true story. And actually showed him pictures when he was
on our show. I'm like, hey, man, what's up? Interviewed
you a few times. He's like, yo, nice guy, nice fellow.
That was a while back before he passed away. We
all flew on a plane with oj Simpson. Remember that.
That was so weird. His big head was in the

(23:09):
front of the plane. We're like, oh my god, oh, Jay,
true story. But just the other day I was flying
back from New York from York Airport to Los Angeles.
And it's so interesting too, because I hate being this guy,

(23:29):
and I try hard to not be this guy. But
I was that guy. Sometimes when you try too hard, Rich,
that's when you are at your worst. Speaking of Jazz Chisholm,
someone asked him recently, Hey man, what's the secret to
your success? You're playing better now than you were playing
before you got hurt. And he goes, because I'm playing
at seventy percent, Like, what does that mean? He goes,

(23:49):
because when I'm playing at one hundred percent, I'm trying
too hard. But at seventy percent, I'm just right. So
sometimes my seventy percent is one hundred percent. And it
makes sense because when you try too hard, that's when
you met us up. You gave the life, relationships, everything.
So I try hard to not meet this guy. And
I was by default. I had seat thirty seven or

(24:11):
whatever right, and I sat in.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
The wrong sea. I sat in thirty eight. You sat
in the wrong row.

Speaker 1 (24:16):
Yeah, I said, the you're the guy when the flight
I always see people in the flat has to say,
can I see your boarding passers, if you're the ascon
that had the wrong rong, dude, I already sat down,
made myself at home. I uh squeegeed my area real nice,
disinfected everything, pulled out my headphones. I was sitting there
in my blanket on my lap, all ready for takeoff,
like a good boy, all nice and comfy, headphones on,

(24:41):
ready to watch a stupid movie. And Sivato comes up
to me. He's like yo, and I'm like, I'm not
catching on. I got my headphones in, like yo, and
then I pulled my headphone out. He was a Vato
and he goes, yo, big dog.

Speaker 2 (25:00):
Now.

Speaker 1 (25:01):
Immediately I'm mad. Immediately, I'm mad, oh big dog, Yo,
big dog. I'm like, big dog, what is this. I'm like,
I feel like i'm your elder bro a little bit,
or i'm your e I'm either your equal or your elder.
Like we call me big dog. I don't know how
I feel about this, yo, big dog. And I said, honestly,
I pulled out my headphone again. I'm like, what the

(25:22):
big dog? You're in my seat? Man, I'm like, I'm
in your seat.

Speaker 2 (25:26):
No, I'm not.

Speaker 1 (25:26):
I was so confident too. I was like you want
to bet and he's like, let me see your ticket.
I'm like, yo, who is this guy? Like run the plane,
call me big dog, tell me to get up. I
pull out my other headphone. I'm like, now I'm reaching
into my pocket and I look and I am in
his seat. Like oh, It's the most humiliating feeling ever
because I'm so confident that I wasn't because I don't

(25:48):
want to be that guy. So it really bothered me
that he was so adamant about I'm in his seat.

Speaker 2 (25:54):
And then it really really bothered me that.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
He called me big dog, because then it's all this
like big dog, what does that mean?

Speaker 2 (26:01):
I mean, I'm fat? Does he think i'm his boy?

Speaker 4 (26:03):
Like?

Speaker 1 (26:04):
Was that a condescending sort of thing? I don't like
that feeling that he gave me, And I almost wanted
to like throw hands for a second for.

Speaker 2 (26:11):
A second, these nicknames. Was it? Was it a was
it a compliment? I don't know.

Speaker 5 (26:18):
Yeah, they thought you thought you on the plane could
sit wherever you wanted to, including in his seat, and
he was not going.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
To have it. And he was with his boy too,
big dog, Yes, in my seat.

Speaker 3 (26:30):
This is exactly like when you're in a drive through
and you ask for ketchup or something and the worker
gets it for you and he's like, here you go.

Speaker 2 (26:38):
Boss.

Speaker 3 (26:40):
It's condescend it's not a cool nickname. It's like, yeah,
you're you're bossing me around and I'm making minimum wage.
Even though that's good right now in California, I.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
Don't like that one either.

Speaker 1 (26:51):
And I think the term mother would have been my guy, like,
oh my god, guy, My guy would have been okay,
because it's like, yo, my bro, you're in my seat,
you say my something.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
It's endearing.

Speaker 1 (27:02):
Yeah, my guys to do with And that's the current day,
like oh my dude, my dude. When I never been
called big dog before my life, I was like dog,
never Robinson, So I.

Speaker 2 (27:16):
Didn't know how to feel man.

Speaker 1 (27:18):
So I got up all humiliated, tail between the legs
because I'm a big dog, and I'm like defeated in
the moment and I'm like what is that? And then
I sat there for a good like fifteen minutes. I
let it simmer like big dog, what does that mean?
I wanted to turn around what you mean by that?

Speaker 2 (27:34):
Big dog? This is like when Luca got called fat that.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
Dude, was in my walls for at least a half
hour of the flight. It's funny because there's so many
of these quote nicknames. Boss doesn't rub me the wrong way.
I was just thinking I was at Chipotle the other day,
like boss either and the guy starts me at He's
all in like a positive, happy mood. He's just some
young college kid. He's like, hey, Boss, you want to
brown or white rice? I'm like brown rice?

Speaker 2 (27:56):
All right? Boss? What protein? What meat?

Speaker 1 (27:57):
I'm like, he said Boss twice every up on the
on the process of Chipotle.

Speaker 2 (28:03):
Hey do you want some some boss A Boss?

Speaker 1 (28:06):
He pulled like seven, Boss like it so disrespectful?

Speaker 2 (28:10):
Rich geb. Have you ever been hit with a mister
yet by some like I would take mister on times
over Boss.

Speaker 1 (28:16):
Look, I don't mind it, but I look over my shoulder.
I'm like, wait, I'm in mister territory now, yeah, Like, man,
you killed that.

Speaker 2 (28:24):
I just feel like I'm not old enough for that,
but I guess I am, sir. That's fine with me.
You ever hear the boss, and I'm ready to fight.

Speaker 1 (28:31):
I know at least mister sounds respectful. It just catches
me off guard. So when you hear someone call you chief,
Sir Patrick Mahomes or Travis Kelsey, don't call me chief.

Speaker 2 (28:43):
Yeah, that's another one, man, I don't. I'm not either now.
Also as well, Tiger. There's a scene from Me.

Speaker 6 (28:51):
There's a scene from Men in Black where Will Smith
gets upset because Tommy Lee Jones keeps calling him tiger
and chief and boss and so they just keep going
back and forth.

Speaker 1 (28:59):
You see, because there's something behind it. And Danny G's
right is condescending. It's not from a respectful place. I
don't like it. Your thoughts. What are some other ones
that really rub you the wrong way? And am I
making too much of this? Eight seven seven ninety nine
out Fox, Danny?

Speaker 2 (29:14):
Where else did that happen to you recently? You said?
Where was I?

Speaker 3 (29:18):
I was checking in on the last trip Brendan and
I took last year, and the guy kept calling me chief,
like way, put your bags up here? Chief, and I'm
just looking at I'm like, bro, I'm not I'm not
the boss of the airport. I'm not a chief of anything,
you know. And that's the thing, especially when you're at
a restaurant or something like that and somebody is referring

(29:39):
to as boss. Yo, I'm just trying to make it
through the week, like you trying to get this special
up here on your menu.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
I'm not your boss.

Speaker 4 (29:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (29:46):
It's weird, man.

Speaker 5 (29:47):
It's also the psych I think it's a psychological game
of it's usually a younger person to an older person.
The younger person actually thinks they know more, but they're
going to try to make the older person think that
they're special. So hey, boss, but really, in their mind
they're like, I'm running this ish. That's what they're thinking
in their mind when they're saying there's a funny in dB.
I think you hit the nail on the head with

(30:08):
that one. Your thoughts.

Speaker 1 (30:09):
At eight seven seven ninety nine one Fox, there's a
funny viral let me semi viral clip of a guy
he's called big guy, but he is a he's a
big guy, and they're like, all right, big guy, and
then the whole thing in his head he's like, am
I fat?

Speaker 2 (30:21):
Like big guy? What does he mean?

Speaker 1 (30:22):
Does he just mean I'm a bat fat guy? Why
would he call me that? Hey, it's a good question.
You know what, We're gonna take all your phone calls.
In fact, these are the type of things that light
him up. Apparently all the phones are lit. We'll go
through this next. Well, let's go to Dan Bayer a
dB furn up date.

Speaker 2 (30:35):
What's going on? dB?

Speaker 5 (30:37):
Oh gosh serious, let's call back to you guys. I'm
so mad. No, Kirk Cousins was mad for a while,
not mad anymore. He is at Falcons mandatory. Mini camp.
Wanted to be traded this soft season because he's the
backup to Michael Panicks Junior. Today he swallowed his pride

(30:58):
and showed up as the number two.

Speaker 10 (31:00):
Always believe going back to my rookie year, what Mike
Shanahan told me, which is, tough times don't last. Tough
people do. It's not just physically tough, you know, it's
mentally tough, emotionally tough. You gotta be resilient. Life's gonna
have some curveballs. You just have to keep moving. And
I think the key is that you you don't powder
or stop. You just keep moving, keep working forward.

Speaker 2 (31:18):
We welcome Big Mike before we play who Mike runs Place?
Guy right here?

Speaker 1 (31:23):
You know everybody has never heard of them before we
play Last One Standing Next hour?

Speaker 9 (31:27):
Heard of them?

Speaker 1 (31:28):
Mike, What are your thoughts on when someone calls you
because you said that you don't care, but this guy
called me big.

Speaker 4 (31:33):
Doughts enough, that's enough. You guys are a bunch of thin,
skin y Why do you give a rats behind?

Speaker 2 (31:42):
Yeah? What somebody calls you who doesn't know you, you
have no relationship?

Speaker 4 (31:47):
Like?

Speaker 2 (31:47):
What do you want him to call you? Sir? Should
we go back to the nineteen fifties?

Speaker 3 (31:51):
It's a radio topic. Do you want all of us
to tell who cares? None of us care what anybody
calls us?

Speaker 8 (31:56):
Right?

Speaker 1 (31:56):
Imagine you sitting there and now I'm looking up at
some YOUNGNK with a wispy mustache calling me big dog,
big dogger in my seat, man, I got a few
I got. I found what I would consider a list
of the most annoying things you could call someone. Okay, sport, Okay,
that's I'm gonna call Mike's sporticus from now. All right,

(32:19):
Chief is obviously on the list Tiger.

Speaker 2 (32:24):
Brought. So you know a sport is so lame because
it's so it just sounds corny as hell. Brah or
brov bro pal or buddy. You know, I say that
a lot.

Speaker 1 (32:38):
See, maybe Mike's out to something because I do say
that a lot, and I don't mean it in a
condescending way A lot of it.

Speaker 4 (32:43):
Honestly, it's regional and colloaquial, like it's just that's what
people call somebody they don't know the name of. And honestly,
when people say boss or chief and you feel disrespected,
I think, honestly they're trying to use that as as
a modern day honorific more like sir.

Speaker 2 (33:00):
I don't know what that's what it is.

Speaker 1 (33:02):
Dude.

Speaker 2 (33:03):
Dude is one of the most idiotic stuff I've heard.

Speaker 5 (33:05):
Ate mateate is amazing, Right Australia comes up to says,
did I mate, there's an equal there's an equal playing ground,
there's you.

Speaker 2 (33:16):
Want to feel like the equal that's all you want.
That's all you want. Some are insane.

Speaker 1 (33:22):
I don't feel like it's that an equal playground. I
feel like it's a he's being.

Speaker 3 (33:25):
Me, Mikey when he said when he said boss, boss man,
he threw the ketchup at me, that he was not
honoring me.

Speaker 2 (33:31):
He's like, he's another way to say.

Speaker 4 (33:34):
That's another But look, look, I don't want anybody call
me a whole, but who cares? Like these are random
word call me Champ.

Speaker 1 (33:41):
I like that one Champs, good chump. I remember my
dad someone called me that O G one time. He
know what that meant, Like ir O G.

Speaker 2 (33:53):
Saying I'm an old guy.

Speaker 11 (33:54):
O G.

Speaker 1 (33:55):
Stay for old guy, like no man, your original gangster.
Someone comes at you with this weird sort of name, nickname.
How do you feel about it? It depends, because I
get I got offended a little bit. Not where I'm
gonna fight somebody or cry about it, but it rubs
me the wrong way sometimes, because, as Dan Bayer nailed
it before, you want to be addressed in an equal

(34:16):
sort of playing field, like, hey, bro, what's going on buddy?
If whatever it is, you'd feel comfortable dressing somebody, that's
how you want to be addressed.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
Yeah, I think big dog, big guy, Danny G. We
were talking off the area. You remembered one of your
big guy stories, right, Oh, Covino was there.

Speaker 3 (34:32):
We were at the lobby of our Super Bowl hotel
and we were by the bar and this waiter was
walking by with a tray and he looked right at
me and he's like, excuse me, big guy. But I
remember Covina laughing because the way he said it, he
put a lot of emphasis on the big guy, and
I'm like, jeez, was I in his entire path?

Speaker 2 (34:50):
Yeah? That gained some weight. No one told me.

Speaker 1 (34:53):
But then again I said, I wasn't necessarily offended when
the Chipotle guy the other day must have said boss
ten times everything brown or white rice?

Speaker 2 (35:02):
Boss a brown rice. I don't like what type of
protein there?

Speaker 5 (35:05):
Boss?

Speaker 1 (35:06):
Put some respect on my name, and I don't thinking
the whole time is does he realize that every customer,
this guy must drop a thousand bosses a day.

Speaker 12 (35:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (35:14):
Again, when I say offended, I don't mean like the
way people are offended all the time in today's world.
I'm just saying it. It rubs the the sphincter in
a in a weird way. I'm like, huh, I don't
know if I like it. Mike in Alaska, we'll take
a couple of quickies, then we'll get to some uh,
we'll get back to some baseball.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
What's up?

Speaker 1 (35:33):
Like?

Speaker 13 (35:34):
Yeah, So you get into a restaurant really energetic, you know,
kind of wait or whatever, and he looks right at
you and goes, well, hey, my friend, And then when
they're all done, the orders come out and everything like that,
they give you you man, you the man.

Speaker 1 (35:47):
I hear that you to man, man, my friend. That's
kind of foreigners use that Hello my friend, Hello, my friend.
I'm okay with that sometimes, but again, I guess everyone
has their pet peeve. When Jim Nance calls you friends, hello, friends.
Uh Mark in Syracuse, what's up Mark?

Speaker 12 (36:06):
Hey, what's up my dudes?

Speaker 2 (36:07):
My dude, what's up man? Yeah, I'm cool with that. Dude,
my dud's I'm cool with too. I'm cool with it.

Speaker 12 (36:12):
I got two observations, but as I was on hold,
I ran into the convenience store and the guy called
me boss and sir during the same transaction. So anyway,
the first one that was Tom Danny. I've been told
that that's and those terms are another way to stay.

Speaker 14 (36:30):
Hey hole yeah.

Speaker 12 (36:32):
And the other one other and the other observation is
I don't know if you've seen band Santa, but remember
when the little kids asking him what the hell's names were?
He's like, I don't know, I call him bub or
cheat or whatever.

Speaker 4 (36:43):
You know.

Speaker 2 (36:44):
Yeah, it's over. It's like a a whatever bub bub Yeah.

Speaker 1 (36:49):
Their replacement words, Uh Trip in Vegas, who we're going
to see next Friday?

Speaker 2 (36:53):
I know he'll be there.

Speaker 9 (36:54):
What's up, trip, What's up, gentlemen?

Speaker 12 (36:57):
It's uh.

Speaker 9 (36:58):
I want to know one who is this big mic guy.
I don't even know who that is.

Speaker 2 (37:01):
He runs. You might see him in Vegas, in fact
you will.

Speaker 9 (37:04):
But never had an experience.

Speaker 12 (37:07):
Uh.

Speaker 9 (37:08):
When I was back a couple of weeks ago to
see my parents in South Carolin on a plane, so
I'm because I'm in I don't sit in road thirty seven, sorry, ConA. No,
I'm in ultra comfort right behind first class. And the
guy says to me, I'm actually at the right seat,
and he goes, hey, big guy, and I'm duck down.

(37:29):
I have my ear pods. Then I can't hear, and
I'm like, I'm with my wife. I'm like, yeah, but
you're in my seat. And then the flight attendant stepped
in and said, hey, we'll fix this. But I didn't say, hey,
little guy. That's where I get mad.

Speaker 2 (37:45):
Can you say, little guy, a big guy listen.

Speaker 1 (37:48):
No offense to the thank you triples, see my size
and assessment out of this, No offense to the short
kings as they called him out there. But if you
bump into a jose L Tuve looking guy, can you.

Speaker 2 (37:57):
Be like, hey, little guy.

Speaker 1 (38:01):
Napoleon. Yeah, let's have a small fella. And by the way,
yeah a big dog is weird, big unit. I'm okay
with stop what Randy Johnson Faneah yeah, sure, So let's
talk about this miked up deal they got going on.
I got to explain. I'm not just saying this now

(38:21):
because it's the Yankees. I've always said this. I find
it to be like very demanding of these professional athletes.
It's very uh, I don't know if that's the word
low expectations No. Covin alway says anytime there's a news
story that breaks in a small town, Cavino's first observation
is like, well, I can't believe the composure of like
the local police chief got on the microphone.

Speaker 2 (38:40):
It's like, that's what you do, people step up.

Speaker 1 (38:43):
Yeah, but like there's a lot of professional pressure already
on these athletes to deliver high stakes. Every game is
a big deal. That's such a big deal. We come
back every day analyzing everything, and you want this professional
baseball player to be locked in in the zone and
then answer stupid questions from idio broadcasters in the booth.
That's a lot on national TV beat it. If I

(39:04):
was the manager or coaches that team, I'm like, no
interview someone else. My guy needs to concentrate and focus
on the game. And I've always felt that way. And dude,
I was hanging with my brother. Hold on Cavino Popovich
over here, we'll be Can I just say it's this
is fun for the fans. It's not just fun. That's
why we talk about it all the time. Yes, sports
is fun, but don't act like there's not an immense

(39:25):
amount of pressure to deliver. Don't act like that's not true,
because it is. Yeah, it's a game, and it's a
kid's game, but at the highest of levels with millions
people watching like such a crybaby, be whatever, big hoss. Yeah,
listen postgame, pregame, halftime, in between quarters, in the NBA
coach interviews.

Speaker 2 (39:47):
It's the least you could do.

Speaker 1 (39:48):
You're trying to get some coach sight, not playing, You're
trying to get insight. Fans want to be more involved.
That's how the game is evolving and growing. I think
this is to pull in the casual fan that likes this.
See the benefits, not that I don't see the benefit
of when a player's miked up. But if you care
about that team, you care about that player. It's like, yo,
take the pressure off this guy. Let him concentrate on

(40:09):
the I don't know the exit velocity of one hundred
and ten mile per hour rocket coming out his face.
You're telling me because Jazz Chisholm, no, I was about today,
and you won't let me tell you.

Speaker 2 (40:20):
I told you. I was hanging out with my brother
and me and him were sitting there.

Speaker 1 (40:23):
I'm like, I hate when they do this, and my
brother's like, yeah, I hate it too, bro, And I'm like, cool,
we confirm that this is weak. Let them play the game.
Why do we got to have these guys miked up
in the middle of a good rivalry here in a
game that matters. Every game matters. If it didn't, we
wouldn't be talking about it all the time. And he's like, Yo,

(40:44):
one of these days there's gonna be a costly error.
And they're like, yo, we can't do this anymore, man,
I'm just waiting for the day it happens. Sure enough,
Jazz Chisholm is miked up at third base, a position
that he's not necessarily that comfortable with. It's not his position.
He's just because Lem Mayhew's at second. Here's what happens.

Speaker 9 (41:03):
So the first question comes from a fan, and what
are your thoughts on what Hunter Dobbins said earlier about.

Speaker 2 (41:10):
Retiring rather than being in pinstripes. I think we're looking at.

Speaker 4 (41:17):
Well a second.

Speaker 2 (41:21):
Damn it, dammit.

Speaker 10 (41:26):
Spin throw is right, difficult play different.

Speaker 2 (41:33):
Yeah, his thoughts on Punter Dobbins really important in that
moment the throw. Yeah good. I mean for me, I mean,
I love competitiveness.

Speaker 1 (41:44):
Give me a break. Poor guy gets a rocket hit
at him. He has to do a spin, spin a
roo and then throw, and damn it, it goes. Do
you think he would have made that play if he
wasn't miked up.

Speaker 2 (41:55):
He might have. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (41:56):
You know, you're not concentrating. It's almost even he's there
at third bases. Guys are hitting rot yes, because it's
the big leagues. Let him concentrate. Guys are hitting monster
shots into the outfield. You want this guy to be
answered questions about his wife or about the clubhouse. Meanwhile,
they're in the middle of an intense game with fifty
five thousand people watching in millions at home. Like that's

(42:16):
a lot of added unnecessary pressure, I'd be like, yo, thanks,
but no thanks guy in.

Speaker 2 (42:20):
The booth, and I'm a broadcaster. Beat it. There's a
time and place that's not it.

Speaker 1 (42:25):
I think this is the most casual weenie fan that
just needs needs to added extray. Like you know who
says they like this. My girlfriend's like, I like when
they do this. I'm like, I don't because I care
about the team.

Speaker 2 (42:35):
You don't.

Speaker 1 (42:36):
No, yes, listen, this gives some personality and Okay, then
why don't they Why don't they make up pictures? Why
don't they mike up when it, you know, in big
moments because they distracted. They mike up NFL players. They
just don't have conversations with them. And you that's some
of the greatest footage we see every year. You could
have it miked up, but when you're doing a full

(42:57):
on interview in the middle of the game, I'm down
time there was.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
In baseball, dude, And so what do you do you
want to want you call him I'm in the middle
of me, dude. But it's too much. It's intrusive.

Speaker 1 (43:07):
It's like, yo, man, let the guy play your thoughts
eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. You know that
that error could have changed the whole outcome of the game,
could have set a bad tone. Every game matters, and
it's because some GABBRONI wants to know his thoughts on
Hunter Dobbins. Screw Hunter dobbins favorite pizza toppings. Now go,
you can't you can't call the broadcasters off.

Speaker 3 (43:28):
Remember how famously Rojas on the Dodger said, hang on
a second, let me make this play, yo, dude.

Speaker 1 (43:33):
But still, yeah, that's what that provided for a fun moment.
But what if it didn't go that way right? Or
what if it cost the game? What if something bad happens?
What if you know, what if what if he had
a line drive to the noggin? And then it's okay,
I'm not a fan of it. I never was never.
I got to make it very clear, it's not just
because of jazz Chism. It's just I think these are

(43:54):
high pressure game of the week, nationally televised moments. You
want to know what jazz Chism had for breakfast?

Speaker 2 (44:01):
I actually like, give me break What do you think
jahism have for breakfast?

Speaker 1 (44:05):
I don't care. There's a time and place. How about
how about after the game, how about before the game?
You got have it when he's getting set there at
the hot corner. No thanks, don't pass on the interviewing.
You're just mad because your dude made an error. No
I'm not, and so I said a million times. I've
always felt this way. Always I was asking too much
of the players. You want to mike up people while

(44:27):
they play, that's fine. You want to do a full
on interview with them in the middle of the game.

Speaker 2 (44:33):
Beat it. You got nothing else to talk about. I
thought one of the coolest talk about in the booth.

Speaker 1 (44:38):
I thought one of the cooler moments of a national
game recently was I believe it was a Subway series
met Yankees, and they had Brandon Neimo on the mic.
They also did another one with Lindor and they talked
to Lindor's wife.

Speaker 3 (44:51):
His wife surprised him with their newborn at the game.
She was standing there with a newborn dude.

Speaker 1 (44:57):
It was a nice moment, very forced, but it could
have did that anytime. I think it's distracting. There's plenty
of time in between innings, before and after the game.
You're expecting so much from these guys, but they're trying
to play a game, and you can downplay it all
you want is people got money on the game.

Speaker 2 (45:13):
There are high stakes of the game. People's jobs are
on the line, you know what I mean?

Speaker 1 (45:16):
Like jas Chisholm's that third because he's competing for a
spot at second and you got to make an errors
because you want to know how he feels about Uh.
I mean, we're gonna his favorite TV show, We're gonna
talk at Circle. So I'd rather just move on because
your head's up your ass on this one because you
think you think I'm the only guy because you think
are you not taking the temperature of people out there?
You're thinking you think I'm the only guy that feels

(45:38):
taken or earlier? What are you taking these eperatures eight
seven seven ninety nine on Fox if you feel me
at all, and you will when it's your goofy ass
team that makes a cost the error because some goofball
in the booth wants to know what he had for dinner.
We'll see what happens then Wess and Vegas sit is
somebody goes Cavino NASCAR drivers to interviews mid race. You're
telling me a micd up baseball player who does nothing

(46:00):
ninety percent of the time. Ready, get ready, Yes, that's
what I'm saying. Well, you know who agrees with you, guy,
Why don't you read all the comments that go against me? Ahead, continue,
I'm going to read one for you, But now I won't,
all right, I will. Our buddy comedian Michael Yo is
like Covino's right, Yo, that's what's up, Michael Yo yo yo. See,

(46:22):
I'm with Cavino on this. I think that there's I
also think that there's a difference. So I think NASCAR
usually does it in a caution situation. I don't think
was they're going down the backstretch at Daytona, they're checking
in to see what's happening with Chase Elliott.

Speaker 2 (46:37):
I don't I don't remember that.

Speaker 5 (46:40):
But but TNT ESPN, I know TNT does the inside
tracks thing where they will have someone micd and then
they'll bring it back. That's different than doing an interview,
you know, during a game and stuff like that. And
sometimes the content that they have on the inside track
stuff is worthless. Like there was a game and I

(47:01):
can't remember. Maybe Sam remembers that we were talked about
a month or two ago that somebody miked up. They
got into a fight with somebody on the court, and
then when they did their inside tracks, all it was
was like, good job, man, good job, Get back on D.

Speaker 2 (47:14):
Get back on D.

Speaker 5 (47:15):
They had no audio from the fight that occurred between
that person or the argument and another person. So if
you're trying to enhance the broadcast, you're doing it in
that situation at the expense of actual wins and losses,
which I think is wrong when you're usually trying to
do it just to bring in more viewers.

Speaker 1 (47:33):
I know when they do this, or when they started
doing this, was usually a special event, like an all
star game or something like that, and that was my
first thought of like, man, I don't know how I
feel about that, but at least it's like one special game.
It's fun, it's for the fans. These are real games, dude,
real games that matter.

Speaker 5 (47:49):
They've expanded it to golf, but they'll do it between shots,
like when a player hits a t shot, he'll have
an airpce in and he'll walk down the fairway and
get questions.

Speaker 2 (47:57):
More and more players.

Speaker 5 (47:59):
Are becoming warm to it, but not as you're lining
up an eight foot putt needing the save par You're like,
let's go to jim NANTZ.

Speaker 1 (48:05):
You know, like, I mean, listen, I agree, You're not
gonna go to Edwin Diaz in a safe situation. Yeah,
facing Bryce Harper and be like it's too too okay,
So the Edwin Diaz you're more of a boob guy
or but guy, like, I mean, you're not gonna be okay.
So some guy at the hot corner taking the again
exit velocity is of one hundred and ten miles power plus,

(48:27):
that's the time to be talking to the guy.

Speaker 2 (48:29):
Give me a break. How about it when the guy's
rolling roaming the outfield in an All Star game?

Speaker 1 (48:34):
Okay, I get it. Football players just miked up. You know,
my man, what's going on? You're ready for the game today. Yeah,
that's all fun and good for the b roll. But
an interview during the game, now, you're like over stepping.
Stop overstepping, guys. How about you find something interesting to
talk about?

live Last One standing in Vegas at the pool?

All right, So thank you guys for playing along.

Speaker 1 (59:30):
We appreciate it, and thanks for checking out our videos
on the YouTube page. Real quick, right quick, I guess
we could start on this and then maybe continue tomorrow.
Rich Jameis Winston, he was on the list. Jameis wins
he was, he was on the Browns list. Yeah, there
was a report that said it was via overtime. Former

(59:53):
New Orleans st running back Mark Ingram shared that Jameis
Winston once gave a speech that started with the prayer
and ended with him singing the Monday Night football theme song.
So started with the prayer and ended with him singing
the theme song, which one, Oh you're read it for
some football. I mean that's how William I'm guessing that,
which is hilarious.

Speaker 2 (01:00:13):
Oh money not party.

Speaker 1 (01:00:15):
So it got us thinking based on that. I mean,
first of all, what a colorful guy, so funny, his
personality's great. But I got us thinking of the worst
speeches of all time. And for me, there's there's one
outside of sports that comes to mind immediately. It's from
the world of entertainment and movies. Should I just say
it now? Oh spotted my best man speech? Well, that's
another one. You want to tell that story you had?

(01:00:37):
Now another one you're talking spot just mean mugged you man?
Another one you're thinking of, it's obviously is a movie one. Yeah,
because I would feel it would be the greatest example
Steve Boucemi and the wedding singer best bad.

Speaker 2 (01:00:51):
Speech, better man, best man, better man.

Speaker 1 (01:00:54):
I think when he's drunk, it just is such a
funny moment that we all remember that. We've all seen
a million times Sidney and Scott were getting married called hookers.
I guess I don't remember paying. And you know what,
we'll discuss it tomorrow. Consider it a homework assignment, your
worst speech memories. Maybe you choke during a best man speech,

(01:01:16):
maybe it was in a you Google gone wrong.

Speaker 2 (01:01:19):
I want to hear about the worst speech moments based
on this.

Speaker 1 (01:01:22):
Did you say you Google? Yeah, you probably thought I
didn't even know what a you Google was. So the
worst speeches you ever heard. We'll talk about that tomorrow.
Plus you know what else, we'll do last one not
last One's standing.

Speaker 2 (01:01:36):
Major.

Speaker 1 (01:01:36):
That's what I meant, Midweek Major. We do it every Wednesday.
The biggest stories in the world of sports and pop culture.
Will do it tomorrow on the show. You totally will
be distracted if you were micd up during a game, yeah,
I mean multitasking during high pressure situations not easy. All right,
We'll have a great night. No NBA tonight, no NHL tonight. Right,
So you know he could homework assignment as well on

(01:01:57):
Apple TV. If you're not, you don't even need to
be a golf wing fans. Stick with Owen Wilson. I
watched the first episode getting paid by Apple TV. It's
just every show and that's on.

Speaker 2 (01:02:06):
It's good. Also the programming the Earnhardt documentary on Prime
Really check that out.

Speaker 1 (01:02:11):
Yeah, I'll check that out, but you won't watch what
I said. Okay, great, all right to read it there
to your baby. See you in the Promised Land.
