Speaker 1 (00:05):
Oh, p over promised. Let's go over promised our bonus pod,
Covino and Rich from Fox Sports Radio Monday through Friday,
two to four on the West, five to seven on
the East. Search Covino and Rich wherever you stream your podcast.
And this is our bonus show. But not just any
bonus show. It's our one hundredth episode, one hundred episode
(00:27):
of over promised, one hundred episodes. Because this guy over
promises things we never get to but we do hear
on the show. And today, not only do we celebrate
one hundred episodes, we celebrate one of your heroes, one
of your heroes birthdays. Today we talk fights, golf fights
in particular, but right now we battle Covino and Rich.
(00:48):
We battle the world of hot takes. Hot cakes. Yeah,
I'm all for him. I'll love me some juicy, glistening cakes.
Oh you talk about like pancakes, but like ASHU like
hot cakes both, but hot takes. I'm over it. I
got hot take fatigue because I question all the time,
do you really believe that? And we're guys that have
made a living in broadcasting. Now I think that we
(01:11):
believe what we say. Are you saying it took you
till twenty twenty five to have hot take fatigue. I
think it took me to have people going against Aaron Judge.
Oh my guy, see this guy here on my desk,
Give me a break. We got to talk to the
world of hot takes, or as kiddos call it, rage bait.
We need to be more aware. Are you just saying
some outlandis shit so it goes viral or do you
(01:33):
really believe that? Like I'm all for great broadcasting and
to get people's attention, but do you really believe that shit?
And this discussion has to do with al MVP, by
the way your daughter uses the term rage bait. I
feel like this applies to sports hot takes and there
are times where someone will say some shit offends them
(01:54):
and I'm like, does it really or you rage baiting me?
Like when someone will say this offended someone like oho,
or they say things intentionally dumb just to get people
to respond and reply like come on, dude, there's no
way you really thought that, or you really think that
You're just rage baiting. You're just trying to say some
contrarian shit right now because a guy I respect, a
(02:16):
guy I really like, and we need to make that clear,
because I really do love this guy and what he
does for baseball. Ben Verlander, Justin Verlander's brother. Yeah, he's great.
He's great. I love his attitude, I love his content
when it comes to baseball, and in fact, I think
he'd be a great guest on over Promise. He loves baseball.
(02:37):
We love baseball exactly. Hey, Ben, we love your stuff.
I think you're great at what you do, and you're
a great content creator and a great baseball guy. He
built his life around baseball, right. He got a home
run off his brother wants he did, so I'm a fan.
I got to make that clear. But there's no way
I believe that he believes, or even if he does believe,
there's no way I agree with him on the al
(03:01):
MVP power rankings. Have you seen him? I have an
I'm not a Yankees fan, and I'm gonna let you
take it away because I got you back. I'm not
even gonna argue with you on this. So take a
look at these rankings because this is riduculous. It's ridiculous
because not to take away from cal Raleigh in his
amazing season, what amazing ass and his big dumper, but
(03:26):
there's no way he's ahead of Aaron Judge when it
comes to the AL MVP power rankings, and the stats
prove it, and I'll explain, but to be fair, let's
hear what Ben Verlander had to say about it. Take
a listen. Now, this is pretty crazy. It's ridiculous.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Number one in my American League MVP power rankings. I
am going to take cal Raleigh. I know I'm going
to get flack for this because Aaron Judge is hitting
three sixty, but what cal is doing while catching is
absolutely phenomenal. Cal Raley has thirty five home runs, seventy
(04:08):
four RBIs, and an obs over one thousand nine stolen bases.
For cal ralely to be doing what he is doing
as a catcher, playing every day behind the plate, catching,
leading a pitching staff, leading a defense, and hitting at
this level is unprecedented. Defensively, he hasn't allowed a single
pass ball all season long. Cal Raley is the AL
(04:29):
MVP right now. I do have Aaron Judge obviously right
on his heels. He's number two for me. He's heading
three sixty, he has thirty three homers, he has a
one point two two ops seventy four.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
You can cut it off because I'll defend Aaron Judge
all day. Are we gonna rob Aaron Judge from another MVP.
He's having a triple Crown type of season, an unprecedented
season like we've never seen before, especially for a right
hand hitter. And guess what, he's no slouch when it
comes to defense. I know we have this image of
him in the World Series, but he's a phenomenal defender
(05:01):
and they're both equally impactful to their team. Give me
a break now, I want to take it back. He
was robbed in twenty seventeen when Al Tuve got the MVP.
Give me a break, that cheeter. Aaron Judge had fifty
two home runs and one hundred and fourteen RBIs in
twenty seventeen, so he should be heading toward his fourth
mv er Judge is gonna have those numbers by August. Yes,
(05:23):
So Aaron Judge now has thirty four home runs in
seventy seven RBI. Raley has thirty six home runs seventy
six RBI. So that's pretty much on par any given day,
one could hop over the other in the in the
you know standings. But here's where the conversation ends, Aaron
Judge is batting three sixty. That's like wait bogs in
(05:46):
the eighties. That's almost one hundred points higher. Tony Gwyn
shit three sixty to two sixty five. Aaron Judge has
one hundred and twenty two hits to Rawley's eighty eight.
Now insane that out of eighty eight hits, thirty six
of our home runs. Absolutely cal Rawly wins as far
as catchers, it's legendary, it's amazing. He wins as far
(06:09):
as giant asses in baseball and great nicknames. He has
a better nickname. Congrats, Big Dumper. But halfway through the season,
if it continues on this way, there is no way
at all. As much as I love Ben, yeah that
Aaron Judge is not your al MVP. Aaron Judge, guy
right here, Aaron Judge leads the league and get this, runs, hits, slugging, ops,
(06:34):
on base percentage, walks, intentional walks, total bases look like
Colwin's an ass, the Big Dumper, I mean you are
an ass. Guides does it get bonus points? I like
my women, like I like my Mariners catchers. That as
is betting one thousand. Seriously, so he gets out of
credit in the world.
Speaker 3 (06:53):
There.
Speaker 1 (06:53):
I'm not trying to take anything away. Now, this might
all change by the end of the season, but as
of now, you guys are smoking. And if you see
it any other way, and is this a matter of yeah,
I feel this way. You're entitled to feel any way
you want, but be realistic about it. I mean, if
Aaron Judge ends the season batting roughly three point fifty,
it's sixty plus homers and about one hundred and fifty RBI, Like,
(07:15):
that's one of the best seasons ever. That's also unprecedented,
Like give me a brain, so to me, you know
it is. It's also it's just an angle or it's
something different. It's saying opinion. It's also Aaron Judge fatigue.
There's a lot of people that think Jokic could just
keep winning NBA MVPs. But people are like, Yokic you again, Yeah,
yokitch again. How about Aaron Judge again. Barry Bonds prevented
(07:39):
Albert Poolholts from getting a bunch more MVPs. So I mean, listen,
how many times ad pool Hols are a guy like that,
have a career year, but hey sucks, So Barry Bonds
is playing, Aaron Judge is playing. He's he's doing what
he does. Sorry, cal Raley, Like yeah, And to be clear,
he only has two official MVPs, so the fatigue is
from where he's great deserves this third if it continues
(08:01):
on this way? So is this just a hot take?
And Ben's not the only guy saying it, Ben Verlander,
A lot of people are saying on the other side
of things, do you think that is there any show hey,
o Tani fatigue where maybe like a PCA if he
steps it up, or like if Sodo continues to play
like you did over the last month. Honestly, the way,
(08:23):
it's so obviously show, hey, it's even more obvious that
it's Aaron Jones in the three sixties. Your thoughts at
Covin on Rich at Fox Sports Radio. It really is.
I agree the hot take culture we live in it.
But to me, when a guy's batting one hundred points
that right there alone, even in a world where batting
average doesn't mean as much, isn't that crazy impressive that
(08:46):
this power slugger still is hitting for average Like that
we should tip our Yankee hats to the guy and
not try to take away to give prop. Cal Raley
gets all the props in the world for what he's doing,
don't take away from Judge. As a result, he has
a golden ass like gold glove, called golden ass. You
know what the golden ass there it is. He wins
props to cal Raleigh and props to people pushing the competition.
(09:10):
Maybe this pushes Judge to play even harder. We'll see
what happens. It leans into it and just starts putting
patting in his compression shorts underneath his uniform. He just
keeps getting more bold. Nice. We'll see what happens by
the end of the year. Thank you, Ben Verlander. We'd
love to have you on the show. Caler Ralli's going
to be in a Megan in the Stallion video, Is
that right? That's true? He leads the league in twerks. Yeah,
(09:32):
ass collaps to him. So we get a lot of
criticism Cavino and rich I could just stop right there.
Who are these Jabronis for not talking enough hockey?
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Right?
Speaker 1 (09:46):
Yeah, so let's talk some hockey fights, shall we? Hockey fights?
And criticizes you for no hockey talk. You're Canadian bres all,
My guys, in Canada, your Manitoba pals, Do you guys
know former NHL enforcer Nick Tarnaski. Chances are you probably
do now because he went viral this week. Nick. There,
(10:07):
he is the goon himself, Nick Tarnasky. Now this story
caught on like wildfire because everybody loves some controversy and
a nice brawl. This happened this past holiday weekend, fourth
July weekend at Alberta Springs golf Course in Red Deer, Alberta, Canada.
By the way, NHL has dental coverage, right, yes, yes, yes,
(10:28):
those are bragging right yeah? Are you really a goon
if you haven't lost the tooth lack of teeth? He
don't mess with this guy. So an ugly brawl ensued,
but we only saw pretty much one side of the story.
We have an extended video here to share with you
on over promise to see if it changes your perspective
at all, because the way it was edited and the
(10:50):
clip we got it did tell the story. But it
just shows this guy rage and now and then getting
what we think he deserves. Right bam bam bam bam bamang.
The clip we all saw that went viral this week
is a guy just rage now I'm on the golf
course if you up, and NHL and Forrester says, really,
(11:14):
I'm the real tough guy. Bang bang bang beats his
ass and tosses him around right in a lake. Well, then,
mid air, I'm not saying that the drunk guy that
got his ass beat didn't deserve it, but he did
sort of hold back for a long time before he
started raging out. So no matter how much poking can
(11:34):
you take before you just sort of lose it. So
let's just see some more footage, extended footage, and see
if it changes your perception as the whole story. I mean,
it's the first extended clip I've seen, so we share.
Speaker 4 (11:48):
So let's let's take a look up out of here.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
You're not a tough guy. Hurry up, I promise you.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Hurry up.
Speaker 1 (11:57):
So he's kind of reserved just dealing with it. I
know he was acting belligerent the whole time, but you're
not tough. Let's get going, get going where you can
play behind us all and you can take all the
time you want.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
This is it's not you. Guys can't even stand into
your ball up love this Canadian access.
Speaker 1 (12:22):
You need to get the police out here, your bully
police out here. So he's walking away, right. They humiliated
him a little bit. He probably deserved it. They keep
going on, I'm gonna throw him with this, so it's fair.
Granted he's drunk and he's being belligerent, but there's only
so much ship you could hear being said about you
(12:46):
crying more fucking crying, beauty. I don't give a fuck badly.
Now now let's go. This is where we pick it up.
The gloves coming off.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
I'm not filming the golf club off.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
No, you he did walk away off the golf course.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Getting We all know he's about to get tosted a lake.
He doesn't know it. You're not scaring anybody. He starts it.
Oh there you go, come on man, lake and the
lake to good start, buddy. I love that, like an
(13:35):
allega record, like did all on the record. Bang bang
fucking go.
Speaker 3 (13:48):
Bang in there.
Speaker 1 (13:52):
The toss is coming. I've seen paintings of the toss.
You get out like a rag doll. The fuck out here.
It's not okay? All right? Then they stop. Do we
remember this legendary moment Edgar's fall when the kid fell
(14:15):
on the Yeah Edgar's fall turned into a classic is
a great moment in Mexican history. The beautiful painting, it's
one of my favorites. It is now a painting. I've
seen paintings of the toss because it's gonso viral, is
so monumental and so awesome moment. This is definitely grown
(14:37):
into a thing where Nick Tarnawski, they're investigating the story
more because he does work with a like a hockey club.
So the hockey club is still under is investigating the story.
Law enforcement is not investigating the story as far as
I know. But does it change your perspective here? Again,
no one likes a drunken buffoon anywhere, especially a golf course.
(14:59):
But he did walk away, he was still being antagonized.
I'm just wondering if it makes you feel any different
because what we saw was just some guy rageing right
from the beginning. I mean, I felt like they're both
provoking each other, and the hockey guy, Nick just stronger,
better fighter, Like it could have went either way. They're
(15:20):
fighting over like waiting for tea times and stuff. I mean,
to me, it's a great video. I hope no one
gets in trouble because you know what, does he get
a little black guy, he'll be well, I hope not.
I would imagine a guy that gout his ass. What
doesn't want to be like a public known guy for
this thing. But again, the story's still under investigation by
the club Tarnasky works for not authorities. But that's extra
(15:45):
bonus footage courtesy of Cavino and rich On over promised.
And I also want to give credit to our boy
who's been a guest on this show, Kevin Clancy KFC
of Barstool, because he's the one that introduced this video
to us and he had such great commentary about it.
But man, don't let it happen to you. Don't be
that drunken idiot. No one to say when, and you
(16:07):
never know who your message to remind you that it's
it's never a good idea, Like there's that last brain
cell you have, like, well, I'm gonna fight this guy.
Like he didn't turn out the way you want to. Man,
you got thrown in a lake, you got tossed, you
got the best bang bang bang. You know when the
guy walked away, like you saw him, he was like
really angry. He's defeated and he walks away. He should
(16:30):
just stay there. Don't let it happen to you. Don't
be an idiot, don't be that guy. And uh Man
Nick Tarnaski Bam bam bam. He's the guy bang. Speaking
of fights, Speaking of fights, we all love a good fight.
That's why we love this video. There are two big
fights coming up, not this weekend, next weekend, and I
(16:51):
just want to get you hyped up for it. All right.
We got Manny pac Man Pochio versus Mario Marios, the
ass tic warrior about you're the boy that cried the
fight of the year. Okay, well if that one doesn't
blow up your skirt. Usik versus Dubois too. Now, Dublan
got robbed, remember because he apparently hit Usick with a
(17:13):
low blow. Did he really knock him out? This is
going down the same night, July nineteenth. I'm just doing
it out there as a warning if you love a
good fight like we do. Hey, look the boxing glove
right here, Oh Rocky Bell Bull. There is no tomorrow
if you like a good fight. We got two coming
up again in a few weeks, and a few other
great fights this summer we'll talk about here on over.
(17:33):
Promise now there it is Usik Dublas. I will watch
that one because that was huh. It's a big one, man,
it's a big one. And apparently Usik's already scheduled to
fight Fury again for the third one, so he's got
to win this one. But Duba's no punk dude, so
we'll see what happened. All those belts are heavy? How
many belts is USA holding?
Speaker 3 (17:52):
Right?
Speaker 1 (17:53):
Well? This week we celebrated the sixty nine, the sixty
ninth birthday of a guy that has given us so
much joy in the movie and TV world over the
last forty fifty years. Tom Hanks. Well soon there's no
crying in baseball.
Speaker 5 (18:17):
Young Tom Hanks. What a little redheaded friend takes one
hundred years old.
Speaker 1 (18:31):
Happy? His little family is Annie Lennox haircut? Have you
wrote to Tom Hanks? What are you gonna wish for
this time? You get a better haircut? Stop it? So?
Oh Shallina walking.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
Down the street ten times a week? I said it
a minute, I broke with my mama's credit. I'm cool,
uh huh, suck me and with that, so oh Shalli.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
I think it's I've brought this up in the past
every year, I think we make this point. So why
not now on over promise, I said a trisk a
biscuit scream. So as Tom Hanks turned sixty nine, a
guy that's brought us so much joy, I have a
theory that is fat. No two people have the same
(19:22):
four favorite Tom Hanks movies. The catalog is deep. You
could name fifty Tom Hanks. Are you saying that Tom
Hanks movies are like snowflakes? And go on and what
and on? No two are alike? Is that what you're saying?
Were you gonna say vagina? No, I wasn't, bro I
(19:43):
was thinking I was gonna say it, geez, two are
the same? To you could ask one hundred people, and
I hate to use the term mount rushmore, so I won't.
So I'll just say your top four Tom Hanks movies,
because he's done comedies, drama, your core four Hanks. No
two people the same. And I'll give you the proof
(20:05):
in the tapioca pudding. Okay, I'll give you my four,
and I guarantee you right away you get no way,
all right? So these are your top four. In celebration
of his sixty ninth, I even made a snappy little
graphic for a spot on video guy. My top four
Tom Hanks movies are simple, Apollo thirteen, Forrest Gump, Big,
(20:27):
and Sleepless in Seattle. That is my well balanced, old, young,
middle aged Tom Hanks. We got we got two s
nazzy graphic follow thirteen, a drama that that had you
on the edge of your seat. Forrest Gump might be
the one of the greatest movies of all time. So
we're gonna put your theory. Seattle is like a rom
confer it and it can't be matched. I swear, It's
(20:50):
just like an eighties comedy that you can't deny. Okay,
now to prove richest theory se Seattle you've never seen? Nope, Nope, nope.
Speaker 4 (21:01):
I feel like you could pick the best Tom Hanks
movie by decade.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
You pick an eighty as Chicks in Seattle starting Calra.
That's a good one. I've seen that anyway. But what
is your top four? My top four? Yeah, Big is
in my top four, Forrest Gump is in my top four.
And you know what recently, Yeah, those are my Big
and Gump we agree on. But I didn't really appreciate
(21:27):
Gump until recently. But yeah, Big and Gump are the
two commonalities. But dude, I love me some early funny
Tom Hanks. No Bachelor Party is in my top four.
That was my introduction to Tom Hanks and he was
a funny dude. I missed funny Tom Hanks. So I
love Bachelor Party. I think that's great in eighties classic Big,
(21:48):
Forrest Gump, and Castaway. Dude, I love so I think
to like see you know what the runners up for me? Like,
I'm thinking, Oh, Terminal was great. I love Terminal. You
know what when you have I mean there's I mean
them off because you can only pick four. The theory
is a testament to his versusityb and his versatility and
the classic movies he's made. Everybody has a different favorite,
(22:09):
and I think you're onto something. Not everybody's gonna have
the same force. I bet you your four is different
than his four. As we wrap up over promise, what
are your.
Speaker 4 (22:16):
Foot don't don't involve me in this because mine mine
are are over the place.
Speaker 1 (22:21):
I don't know.
Speaker 4 (22:21):
Forrest Cup I think is a legendary film. Putting it
on floor, I would put it on my top four.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
I feel like you're gonna put you're gonna put a
fucking leg of their own.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
I bet League of their Own is a fantastic and
I've always said about League of their Own PM Hanks,
it's the key transition from his eighties goofiness into his
nineties legendary status because that's when he started you got
you got all serious. He did Gump, he did Apollo thirteen.
But right before that Philadelphi of their Own Philadelphia was
(22:51):
that transition from like he was a little bit like
wild and wacky.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
You know, there's no crying in baseball.
Speaker 4 (22:55):
His delivery in that movie was just so great. It
was a perfect transition for me from you know, eighties
to nineties Hank Hanks.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
You know ifs in there, that's that thing was he.
Speaker 4 (23:08):
Wasn't a primary character in that. I have to look
at it.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
That's an underrated movie though. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (23:12):
I just love hangs so much and I almost want to,
like I said, pick one per decade.
Speaker 1 (23:16):
No, you got to just share the wealth, play the game,
give me your other two, all.
Speaker 4 (23:20):
Right, give me a second talk amongst yourselves.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
I can't thinking about this that hard. Yes, okay, it's
really important. Statistic too, well, while we wait for spots,
final wait for that. No, I just want to remind
