Speaker 2 (01:57):
Y Yo and Iowa Sam. I thought two weeks ago
you were getting a haircut. You said you were getting
a haircut two weeks ago.

Speaker 1 (02:03):
Look, Oh, I said I needed a haircut like two
days ago. I look across me. I was like, is
that John c Riley.

Speaker 3 (02:08):
I know I was saying I'm wearing the cnur vegas
twenty CRC twenty shirt.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
Though I love the shirt. You know, you wear that
night shirt to balance out that afro you got going.
I like that.

Speaker 2 (02:19):
I do too, But he just said the other day
gotta get a hair.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
I really do.

Speaker 2 (02:23):
And every day I come in to see U Spiffy

And of course DB's got your updates. But thanks being
part of the greatest show on earth. According to us
Covino enriched world famous. There is none greater. And what
makes us so good We play games, We give away prizes. Now,
yesterday we played Last One Standing. I was the grand champion.

Speaker 1 (02:44):
Guys. I don't want to brag, but you.

Speaker 2 (02:46):
Know, normally you don't bring up who won that game
on Tuesday, but when it's me, I have to. We
were capping game winners from the day before. Clearly, clearly
someone finally won.

Speaker 1 (02:57):
There's a reason, bonehead.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
It is because that leaves us one more prize still
to give away. So today is your or it could
be your last chance to win a Swiggy our coveted
stainless steel water bottle, just in time for school, because
every kid needs one of these to lose to leave
at the at the gym class, so our coveted Swiggy
will be up for grabs later today when we play

(03:21):
Showtime Homes Trivia.

Speaker 1 (03:24):
But let's get into it.

Speaker 2 (03:25):
I got to just give everyone one heads up that
you would say, yeah, of course, you idiot, so be
prepared to that because I feel like that's what you'll say.

Speaker 1 (03:35):
I mean, we say that at least six times a show.

Speaker 2 (03:37):
By the way, I'm like subtly uncomfortable because my ass
is soaking wet. I was with my family this morning
at Universal Studios Families in Town, so I was like,
I can go. I just got to leave in time
to get to Fox Sports. So we went to the park.
The last ride I went on before I came here,
the Jurassic Park Water Floome, And I remember back in

(03:58):
the day you would get a little wet. Now it's
like you might as well jump in a pool. It's
they have up the water splash zone. So she splashy, slus.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
She splashy. We'll get that in your mouth.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
Oh So, how was it. You're having a good time.
It's fantastic you've gone that Harry Potter Rollers Coast. I did,
and I'll tell you what the heads up I want
to give everyone is, you know how when we fill
in for Colin once in a while, did.

Speaker 1 (04:23):
You get a butter beer? You mean like on Thursday?

Speaker 2 (04:26):
Like on Thursday and Friday when we fill in for Colin. Yeah,
we joke about how the difference Danny, where you and
I are coming from, the difference of leaving in a
fifteen minute window could be twenty minutes here or an
hour and twenty minutes here.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
Well, that's la for sure. Yeah, that's a lot of
big cities obvious nightmare.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
But sometimes it's that little window of time, like you're
headed to the airport or on vacation and you're like,
if I leave it this time, then all of a
sudden that crappy as traffic hits I had never been
to and you might think this is crazy. I had
never gone to an amusement park like as it opens.
But we were trying to maximize time because I said,
I runt to work later. Why don't we go when
it opens if you're there five minutes before it opens

(05:06):
and people are starting.

Speaker 1 (05:07):
To go in. We went on three or four tractions,
but no skip the line.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
Pass right away because I think most people are like
I will go like ten am or so if you
get to an amusement park at nine am.

Speaker 1 (05:19):
Never did it.

Speaker 2 (05:20):
I went on the Harry Potter ride, you name it,
the Simpsons ride, the Minions all that five minutes each.

Speaker 1 (05:28):
So wait a second.

Speaker 2 (05:29):
You mean to tell me that if you get there early,
there's less people there. Yo, bro, that's some crazy news.
You're dropping alright, move on, Please wait a minute. If
you can get there early, there's less people. No way
at the baseball park.

Speaker 1 (05:45):
Too, rich.

Speaker 4 (05:45):
This for years has been the go to move at Disneyland.
Like you wait, you mean you have to be one
of the first ones there, get Mickey Mouse pancakes, and
you run around and get on all the rides before
the huge crowd comes in.

Speaker 1 (05:58):
It's tight. I go there before other people show up.
That's what you do. You're rich. Can you say it again?

Speaker 2 (06:04):
Let me get my man, let me get a let
me get a one shot on you go ahead again,
hold on, say that this viral spot. Make sure you
record it. Put it on. Say that again, Rich, for
the world to know. I want to take your heads
and bang them together in honor of the Hulks. Remember
the double knock and knocker when he would slam two
people's heads together. That's what I want to do to you, guys.

(06:25):
I want to Yeah, you should bang your head against
the wall for that one. Oh you're telling me, Oh,
you're telling me when you were a little kid and
your parents would dragged assessing me place or hers park
took me nowhere, So that was a different story. What
I'm saying is you're telling me that you'd be there
right as the park opened.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
No, because like.

Speaker 2 (06:41):
Dude, like I said, looking back, I'm lucky if I
went to sess me place once in my life. That's
the truth. I had great parents, nobody loves me more
than them. But maybe went to Wildwist City once or twice. Damn,
But I was I was a Jersey Shore kids, so
that was my My family went to six Lags and
Action Park and hersh Sheep Park and all that, but
we would never go like bright and early eight and

(07:04):
nine am when the park opened, probably because my dad
wanted to sleep in.

Speaker 1 (07:07):
Yo.

Speaker 2 (07:07):
Does this work at like the theater in the in
the football game? Does it work everywhere? If you get
there early there's less people? Because maybe we need to
try that next time. You know, you're an as clown.

Speaker 1 (07:18):
I get it.

Speaker 2 (07:19):
When you go places early, it is shows into work
five minutes before the show starts.

Speaker 1 (07:23):
He's never early. So I was amazed by everything.

Speaker 2 (07:25):
I had assumed that all the out of towners, we're
gonna be like waiting to go in the park and
there'll be no difference. So like you, if you go
to Disney World in California, you imagine most of the
people are out of towners and they're there with an agenda.
Mom's got the can you go to the Nudi bar
and like, have your choice? Well, if you go to
the nudy bar early, it's not no, no, no, that

(07:50):
doesn't work.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
Ever, you go to the Nudi bar too early.

Speaker 2 (07:52):
Much like a club. Pickens are not good. I mean
I haven't been twenty in years. But usually it's the
one that you don't want that comes up to you
and asks you if you want to dance, Like, no, thanks,
I gotta go now. That's when you pull the old
I just got to here, pull the Rich Davis trick.
That's sweeping the nation. Yeah, you have your choices. You're

(08:15):
early because no one else is there. All right, man, bro,
you are revolutionizing the world.

Speaker 1 (08:21):
I love it. I'm just messing. Might as well call
me Dicky Columbus. But that's really cool. So you went
on all the rides.

Speaker 2 (08:25):
I'm just saying like you shouldn't even be giving you
my tip because now you will all know this strategy.

Speaker 1 (08:30):
Damn buyer. Pretend you didn't hear it. Same with you,
Danny J.

Speaker 2 (08:33):
But I had never you know what, I guess I
deserve it the mockery.

Speaker 1 (08:39):
It's a good one.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
What you could have said is, hey, man, I got
there early, went on all the rides. We'd have been like, yo, sweet,
because I'm I'm the guy that's usually stupid enough to
be like, I'll buy the upgrade for all the tickets
and spend an extra thousand dollars or so.

Speaker 1 (08:51):
If you go at eight nine am, Yeah, you don't have.

Speaker 2 (08:53):
To that Harry Potter ride spot. You're a big Harry
Potter nerd. You stick stick wands wherever? WHOA When you
were when that right first opened, wouldn't you agree? That
was like a two hour wait that Harry Potter. That's
misery man, for five minutes. Yeah, that's the worst. That's
really great now, honestly it's great. What time did it

(09:14):
open though? Nine nine got there. That's not even too bad.
That's not too bad, you know.

Speaker 3 (09:19):
So the people that are usually waiting to get in
are like the elderly because they're up at four thirty
in the morning. They're starving to get into a diner
at like six year or they're waiting to get into
a store.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
They're like banging on the glass. I was sam.

Speaker 2 (09:31):
I worked at a cards and gift store when I
was a high school senior and we'd open at six
am on the weekend. And that was misery for a
seventeen year old kid. But when I tell you, I'd
get there at like five point fifty to open at six.

Speaker 1 (09:44):
Old people were waiting. Oh yeah.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
George and Ebenezer were looking at their watch, the daily news,
a pack of looking strikes and a scratcher since three
a week, sleeping beauty.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
I've been here for two hours.

Speaker 2 (09:58):
What do you do? So I love the story and
to show the dedication if you're not following or connecting
the dots, La la la la, connect the dots. Rich
left Universal to do the show with a wet ass
and all, and he's heading back to Universal right after
the show. So I mean I got to hit up

(10:19):
the Mummy ride later. I mean, yeah, what a day man.
Don't expect like crowds. Don't expect like crowds. Yeah, but
that's that's your la life because you can go back.
We're very close, you know, I said, because early is
the way to go.

Speaker 4 (10:32):
It's what Rich is going to come back tomorrow and
be like, you know what, people leave the last hour.
If you stay all the way to the end, everyone
else leaves. Rich innovator, Rich, I wrote this down. But
what do you think this goes along with your story?
Get this early bird gets storm?

Speaker 1 (10:49):
What do you think? Pretty good? Huh?

Speaker 2 (10:51):
And I made that up based on Rich's store. Now, yeah, groundbreaking.
As I'm saying it, part of me feels like I
shouldn't have said. No, it's actually cool because I'm going
to Disney World next week. So if you guys see
me out there on the teacups drinks on you, I'll
be out there next week. But you know, there's a

(11:11):
part of you, as an adult especially that's like, yeah.

Speaker 1 (11:13):
I get there when I get there, let me let
me ask you get there earlier.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
You're right, you might not have to splurge for the
fast pass or what do they call it?

Speaker 1 (11:20):
Now they call it something, Well, it's lightning pass or
fast pass, whatever the park is.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
But let me let me ask you a sports related
question and then we got a lot of fun to
get to today. There's a wild story with Christian Wilkins
and kissing your teammates and Adam Scheffler, Adam Scheffler. I'm
confusing Adam Schefer and Scotti Scheffler Scheffler, as he said
in Happy Gilmour Scotty Scheffler we were at the town
because I'm gonna say Adam every time. Scotty Scheffler said

(11:45):
he's willing to give up one of his four major
golf titles if something in the world of football happened.
He's such a big Cowboys fan that we'll break that down.
So of course we'll talk NFL, Juan Soto getting a home,
We're gonna talk a little baseball. So a lot of
fun conversations today. But let me go around the room
real quick. We all got kids, for the most.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
Part, I don't that you know of Sam. You have
to make love to a woman first, Sad. I've never
done that.

Speaker 2 (12:16):
So I ask you this, if you got kids, you
as an adult don't want to wait, So, if and
when you have the means to do these things.

Speaker 1 (12:26):
Do you buy the fast pass? Do you?

Speaker 2 (12:28):
I'm thinking about you know, you have to do it
seven days or you could do it up to sevent
days before your trip. I'm going to Disney, like I said,
and I have to make that decision by Friday.

Speaker 4 (12:38):
I think, yeah, Rich, So if you don't get to
go a lot then and you want the real experience,
you need to spend that extra money.

Speaker 2 (12:45):
And I say sports related, Danny, because how annoying are
your kids because they may be the worst sitting in
line all that time? Well, be honest, we didn't do
the fast pass this time, I said, we went early,
but the last ride before I came here, I did
wait a good forty five minutes to an.

Speaker 1 (12:58):
Hour for that Jurassic Park ride. Thick come over that.

Speaker 2 (13:01):
Yeah, but sports related, if you only take Brody H
Dan Bayer tod one Dodgers game a year, or Danny
G take the family to one or two Dodgers games,
are you then saying well, I might as well said
field level I want to go to You know, do
you splurge in those moments or are you spoiling your children?

Speaker 5 (13:20):
I think that you have the ability to splurge in
that scenario. I think that there is instant regret when
you decide to cheap out. Yes, And in that scenario,
like the first line that you stood in for forty
five minutes, like, why don't I just pay the extra
whatever it is?

Speaker 1 (13:36):
And I'm not even familiar because I tell you what it.

Speaker 2 (13:39):
Was today because I had it. It was an additional
one hundred and eighty a person. Wow, if you have
a family for three daddy stacks, let me do my,
let me do my John Daly math.

Speaker 1 (13:50):
I tak.

Speaker 2 (13:52):
Yeah, was suddenly dv's opinion change. So seven to twenty
for your family. But now you might say seven twenty
that's a hell of a lot of money for.

Speaker 1 (13:59):
A lot of fans.

Speaker 2 (14:01):
But is that a hell of a lot of money
if it means your kids and you get to go
to the front of every line. Yeah, here's how I
rationalize you want to stand two hours on the Star Wars.
I rationalize it like this. There's a lot of sacrifice
that your family makes depending on what you do. If
you're a professional athlete, of course, right, because they're always
away and always on the road. But you and I
we travel a lot, and we miss out on a

(14:21):
lot of things. And I look at it like, well,
what am I doing that for? If I can't spurge
on my kid. I want them to understand, like, this
is why Dad isn't there all the time or as
much as he wants to be, and this is why
he does work a lot so that we can do
those things so Dad doesn't have to wait in line.

Speaker 1 (14:37):
Really, and I'm trying to justify it.

Speaker 2 (14:39):
You're right, but that is how I rationalize spending that
much money on that experience.

Speaker 5 (14:43):
When you put it in that term rich. With the
number per person, it's a lot. I had my neighbors.
They're blended family, but so on all it was six kids,
so there's eight total. They said that when they go
out to eat at restaurants, the kids drink water because
they're like, look, we love you, but we're not spending
thirty eight dollars. So everybody gets a soda and you know,

(15:07):
like that sort of drink.

Speaker 1 (15:08):
I started.

Speaker 2 (15:08):
I started having my kids. When they have no like
little kids menu, I'll have them split it on trade
and I'm like, if you're still hungry, Dad'll order more food. Sure,
but there's no more annoying feeling. When you order two,
like sixteen dollars cheeseburgers for your kids, they take quit
and you're.

Speaker 1 (15:22):
Like, so, I'm like, we're gonna split it.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
If you want more, Dad will definitely get you more,
but we're we're splitting stuff.

Speaker 1 (15:29):
If you work hard, you got good kids.

Speaker 2 (15:32):
Yeah, there's nothing wrong with going that because how often
do you go away too? That's the thing, right, and
you want to have a good experience. It's way expensive,
but I think it is worth it because waiting in line.
Not only do the kids hate it. I mean you,
as an adult, you.

Speaker 1 (15:44):
Want to do that.

Speaker 2 (15:45):
I sure as well, But I'm saying that's why, and
that is why you put in the extra efforts. And
then why else are you putting these I get everyone's
saving for something in a.

Speaker 1 (15:53):
House, a car, some clothes, whatever, groceries.

Speaker 2 (15:56):
But geez, Louise, I'll tell you I am working extra
hard so I don't have to sit in line at
these miserable musement parks.

Speaker 1 (16:02):
You know what I mean. I mean, if you have
no amusement in that.

Speaker 2 (16:04):
If you go to let's say, let's say you take
your kids to one Cubs game of year. I mean
a field level seats are one to eighty of pop
one fifty a pop versus forty bucks in the upper deck. Like,
I don't know, are you spoiling your kids? Because I
certainly don't want to sit.

Speaker 1 (16:19):
Everyone's in their.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
Financial pockets, so I do understand. But yeah, waiting in line,
no thanks. So it is a good idea. Get there early,
save the money, or buy the fast pass. Up to you,
I feel like you, But do you feel.

Speaker 1 (16:31):
Like you are buying family sanity?

Speaker 2 (16:37):
You also set in a high expectation for your kids, right,
I want my daughter to have high expectations. Yeah, but
they should also know the grind of you know, waiting
in line. Not everything comes that easy. So that's that's
what I said today during the dress. Honey, learning patience
is important exactly. That's why I emphasize a lot like
this is why Dad puts in overtime so that we
don't have to do that. We're hard work matters, Otherwise

(16:59):
they're gonna think everything, Uh, everything is.

Speaker 1 (17:01):
Easy, breezy.

Speaker 5 (17:02):
Do you guys differentiate between fun and like I used
to drink, example, traveling, I'm sure Danny experience, is it not?

Speaker 6 (17:10):
Now?

Speaker 5 (17:10):
When you're traveling with another child, Like it's just there's
just stuff that you'll pay for convenience for that that's
not even fun. It just makes your life easier.

Speaker 2 (17:19):
Like do you differentiates, of course, but then again you
realize your kids don't know the difference. Like you could
stay at one hundred dollars a night hotel and your
kids thinks it's I think it's magical. Meanwhile, like you
might be a hotel snob, like I stayed recently like
a comfort in with my kids and they're.

Speaker 1 (17:35):
Like, this place is great. It was like one hundred
because it was almost nine feet deep, you know, like
not regulated, the.

Speaker 2 (17:42):
Room has a phone, any subs and shampoos.

Speaker 4 (17:46):
Your kids don't thought it was great till they had
bug bites the next day exactly.

Speaker 2 (17:49):
But you know what I h I agree with what
Dan Buyer said a lot of times. It's it's you know,
you're buying the convenience and you got to manage it.
When you do have kids and you're going places, things
get expensive. You know, you might tell you you might say, hey,
you get at you get your helmet of ice cream
at the stadium, we're gonna bring some sandwiches because otherwise
you're gonna spend Danny, you have multiple kids, A day

(18:11):
at Dodger Stadium for your family would be five hundred
two one thousand dollars easy.

Speaker 1 (18:15):
Yeah. Last time we went, it was nine hundred and
fifty dollars for all of us.

Speaker 2 (18:18):
Sparking tickets, food brow I know. Yeah, that's so much. Dang,
get there early, say we learned something. That's why I
was Sam just goes down to the park and watches
old people play pickleball.

Speaker 1 (18:28):
It's free, economical entertainment.

Speaker 2 (18:31):
So Rich is saying, get there early, guys, so you
don't pay for the fast pass and bring your own snacks.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
Man, Yeah, this is great.

Speaker 2 (18:38):
You can check out now. And you've learned so much
on kiving, on restue. Take your own candy into the theater.
Oh boy, cause what's that teenager going to do? Tell
you to throw it away? I smack them in the head.

Speaker 1 (18:48):
It was. It was the most arrogant I've ever felt.

Speaker 2 (18:51):
My wife and I went to the movies maybe a
couple of years ago, and I had just bought a
Starbucks at the coffee shop next to the AMC And
I'm walking and the little sixteen year old kids like
you can't bring that in here. I patted him on
the head. I should have kissed him on the head
like Christian Wilkins. And I was like, you patted him
on the head like Benny Hill with the old guy.

(19:12):
I was like, that's cute, buddy. And I just kept
walking with my drink. I'm like, you think this, this
sixteen year old would have to pry this coffee out
of my hands.

Speaker 1 (19:19):
But oh man, that's time you got to sneak that
stuff in, all right.

Speaker 2 (19:23):
So Rich is fresh from Universal here to talk some nonsense,
you know, before we get into it, Rich, which we've
been saying for twenty minutes now. And I do want
to say rest in peace to Rhino. Ryan Sandberg passed
away at sixty five yesterday. You know, growing up as
a kid who collected baseball cards and we practiced everyone's
batting stance playing with football, you knew damn well that

(19:44):
when it came to the Cubs, it was the Hawk
and it was Rhino, right, Andre Dawson, Ryan Sandberg, And
I'll tell you what it was them too, man. And
it was Harold Bains, you know, over on the White Sox.
But every team had their guy, the Royals had their
George Brettz. The Red Sox had their weight boxes, Demolitors,
the Youuns, the matting Les, who's your guy, rich Tim Tuffell,

(20:10):
Rayn The Mets would have if you're talking about like
starting lineup figures, we had Gary Carter, we had Keith,
Darryl Doc.

Speaker 1 (20:16):
There are a lot of big stars back then.

Speaker 2 (20:17):
But the Cubs had Ryan Sandberg and he was a
Hall of Fame second baseman who hit some magical bombs.
He was a great player, and it's really sad that
he passed away at sixty five. And I can't be
the only kid that for a little while thought they
just kept spelling his name wrong. I'm like Ryan Samburg,
like no, no, no, Ryan. But as a little boy, I
was like, is it Ryan? But perspective, every team, especially

(20:40):
in the eighties, they marketed one to two guys because
they weren't screen printing shirts for everybody, they weren't making
toys for everybody. It was matting Lee and Willie Randolph,
matting Lee and Winfielder. You know, there was like two
guys tops for every team. You knew that the Cubs
the was Ryan Sandberg. And when someone's that important to
a franchise childhood. That's that's a major blow to all

(21:02):
Chicago fans. So I'm sorry to hear that.

Speaker 1 (21:03):
He had a cool batting stance too. Yeah, he was cool.
One of the ones we did where he bend his
back a little bit blends blends our eras growing up.

Speaker 5 (21:10):
And I would say for as many people who had
Ken Griffey Junior as their favorite player in the nineties,
there were just as money that had Ryan Samberg as
their favorite player in the eighties.

Speaker 2 (21:18):
No doubt that one hurts because he was one of
those elite guys of that era.

Speaker 1 (21:24):
For sure. Who else comes to mind, like Kirby pupp.

Speaker 2 (21:26):
But I mean there was I think someone isolated a year,
and again I'm not going to be able to name
the execute, but they listed the all Star lineups and
it felt like our childhood was like second base Ryan Samberg, shortstop,
Ozzie Smith, first base, Keith Hernandez, and I'm like, yo,
take me back to.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
Our like primo. He's one of those baseball cardon days.

Speaker 2 (21:45):
So you don't have to be a Cubs fan to
recognize a man that sucks.

Speaker 1 (21:49):
He was a major part of your your Cubs collection.

Speaker 2 (21:52):
You had, did you have a Cubs section in the
box or a sleeve the pages and it was all
the Cubs. If you had those Ryan Sandberg's, that meant something.
So rest in peace to a Hall of Famer, a
good guy who battled cancer in sixty five. That's young nowadays, guys,
that's way young nowadays, and I hate to see that.

Speaker 1 (22:10):
Now.

Speaker 2 (22:11):
Coming up on the show, we are going to get
to some more baseball. An interesting story about Wan Soto
last night, but put that on hold because football on
the brain. Football on the mind. And Scheffler I love
when he did that in Gilmour too. Scottie Scheffler said
that he's willing to give up one of his major
major awards, one of his major titles, if something happened

(22:34):
to the Cowboys. He's that big of a Cowboys fan.
We'll break it down next right here. Cavino on Rich
on Fox Sports Radio, Hang time, move.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
Out the way, because.

Speaker 2 (22:51):
You know what this makes me think of our movie? Yeah,
like our movie, like We're back season out.

Speaker 1 (22:59):
That's good.

Speaker 2 (23:00):
You know there's a season three or whatever New Beavis
and butthead coming out in Paramount.

Speaker 1 (23:04):
Plus and King of the Hills about to drop.

Speaker 2 (23:06):
Yeah, buddy, if we've been friends for decades, since we
were twenty years old, tell me why this song means
something to me.

Speaker 1 (23:15):
You've got Rich Davis first kiss or something to this song.
It was close. I had a crush on a girl,
Dandy G in high school.

Speaker 2 (23:21):
Like I was sweating this girl Erica and oh oh
she uh she felt you up right? She tout got
my man boots. It was Rich's first time on second base.
I got to tie back to sports.

Speaker 1 (23:36):
Right, Yeah.

Speaker 2 (23:36):
I asked her, Dandy G, like, you know, very high school,
like you want to like go out? Thinking she'd say no.
Like again, she was like, you know what, Yeah, sure,
let's hang Friday night. I dropped off of a house.
As I pulled away, I turned on the radio and
that song was on, and I probably felt the coolest
in my life up until that moment. Love roller Coaster

(23:57):
by the Red Hot Chili Peppers originally butt Head soundtrack
Love roller Coaster. Oh, I don't know who's saying that
the Ohio players players be nice?

Speaker 1 (24:07):
All right?

Speaker 2 (24:07):

Speaker 1 (24:37):
Thank you.

Speaker 2 (24:37):
All right, let's talk about Scheffler, all right, big star
of Happy Gilmour two, Scottie Scheffler, the jail scenes, everything,
he was fantastic. If Shooter McGavin, Tiger Woods and Happy
were the greatest golfers of the nineties, right, is that
what they seen in the movie? Yeah? Is Scheffler that

(25:00):
of the twenty twenties? I mean, Dan Byer would probably
give the thumbs up on that. He's won four major titles.
He's got two Masters, one PGA and one Open, so
he's saying he's willing to give up one of those.
I would imagine one of those the Masters, since he
has two of them, the extra Masters for a Cowboys.

Speaker 5 (25:17):
Super Bowl, you would think that that would would be
the one, because you already get your basically lifetime exemption
to Augusta national up to some point. But small price
to pay for the Cowboy fans. I think your assessment
on Scheffler's play as well. At least of the last
five years, he's been the player.

Speaker 1 (25:33):
That's mister Scheffler's jacket. He's the guy.

Speaker 2 (25:36):
And by the way, speaking to the Cowboys, rich is
Dak Prescott's birthday, right, He's thirty two today, sooner if
you got my edible arrangement, I'm waiting to see sent
them a balloon and yeah that.

Speaker 1 (25:47):
One cover pineapples. Yeah, he loves that.

Speaker 2 (25:50):
So Vegas is saying that the Cowboys are going to
go seven and ten. A lot of sports books have
them at seven or seven and a half, so we're
looking at the majority of experts analysis has landed at
seven wins, seven and ten, not what Jerry Jones wants,
not with Dak wants, not.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
With Ceedee Lamb wants.

Speaker 2 (26:08):
I don't think anyone wants his Cowboys team, even as
a Niners fan. Danny as the Raiders fan is every
fan in the studio Seahawks Dan Byer. The Cowboys stinking
isn't really good for football, And I think the narrative
that they're when they stink it's funny. I don't think
it's funny anymore. You know where I think they are
for real? Aside from what Dak Prescott says. He talks
a big game and I understand what he wants to do,

(26:30):
but I feel like they're at a point where even
I feel that way sometimes as a fan, like you
just get content with losing, and that's a bad place
to be as a fan as an organization because that's
not what sports is about. I'm about winning. But I
think they're really at the point of we're making money.
It's a business. You just get.

Speaker 1 (26:49):
Content with losing, like Je's not.

Speaker 2 (26:51):
But I mean, but when your team, you get to
a point when your team loses, you're like, yeah, what
else is new? I give up anyway? That does become
a mindset, and that's a bad place to be in.

Speaker 1 (26:59):
Well.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
I am still always baffled by the not so fun
fact for Dallas fans that they have the longest drought
in the NFC Championship game. And when you go through
the divisions, you're like, well, that's right, the Cardinals made
it that year. Oh yeah, the Giants won a couple
of Super Bowls, Like we put this team on a pedestal. Oh,
I mean what happens though every time there's long drought
here in uh in California, I say, respectfully, as a

(27:23):
fire catches fire, So maybe the Cowboys catch fire.

Speaker 1 (27:25):
Well we'll see.

Speaker 4 (27:26):
But well, a couple of additions to go along with
ceedee Lamb George Pickens now to throw to for Dak
and running the ball?

Speaker 2 (27:36):
Uh.

Speaker 4 (27:36):
They added Kenneth Murray Junior as well. They added uh
uh from your niners, Jevonte Williams is going to run
the ball now for your Niners?

Speaker 1 (27:46):
Rich? Who did they get Solomon Thomas?

Speaker 2 (27:49):
So they're listen, every team's trying to put a winner
on the field. Seven wins. The narrative Dan Byer, is
that this is this is a team that's not yet
there yet, right.

Speaker 5 (27:59):
I think they're the poor and Cincinnati Bengals, if that's
possible when you talk about and then you talk about
one organization that's completely flush with money and the Cowboys,
and we look at the Bengals as sort of cheap
in that fashion, but offensive firepower could probably put up points.
Dallas took a hit with Tyler Goeton getting hurt yesterday
in practice, but they they don't have much on defense.

(28:19):
They're just I feel sorry for him like that. That's
the like the part of it, Like you want to
hate Jerry Jones now I just kind of feel sorry
for him because it just seems like they're at a
disadvantage with him running their front office.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
Basically he's not a good GM. So yeah, I don't
see anything happening with the Cowboys again this year. I
feel bad for Dak Press guy. I think he's a
good dude. He's a solid quarterback. He again, he says
all the right things. But this poses the question if
guys like Scotti Scheffler are willing to give up a

(28:52):
major title just to see his team win. It's been
the longest trout as we established. It poses the question
that Rich often asks, when is the best time to
see your team win? And I just when you're when
you're a kid, like, when is it? When does it
mean the most? You know, when you forget how some
of these athletes are so young. Scotti Scheffler was born

(29:15):
in June of ninety six. Let's do the meth that's
he wasn't even born. The Cowboys won their final Super
Bowl in early ninety six, Scheffler was in his mom's belly.
This guy has never seen one. So we're talking about
a guy that's coming up on thirty years old next year.
That's how long the drought has been. The playoff winning

(29:39):
drought is just awful as well.

Speaker 4 (29:40):
For that, that made me feel really old. Yeah, Tiger's
first title was in nineteen ninety six.

Speaker 1 (29:44):
Yeah, that's dude.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
Honestly, I hate to say that, and you know, I
pretend like I'm younger than I am always when you
say that makes me feel so old because he's lived
a life and never known of the Cowboys being good
at all.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
The Michael Irvin, EMMITTT.

Speaker 2 (29:59):
Smith, we all have an image, and Jimmy Johnson and
then Barry Switzer like that was before this dude was
before Scottie Scheffler was born.

Speaker 1 (30:08):
He has no idea of what that life's about.

Speaker 5 (30:10):
Like Rich, he could borrow the VHS tape that I
have of Super Bowl thirty and watch them beat the Steelers.

Speaker 1 (30:16):
Yeah, but riches his porn.

Speaker 2 (30:17):
It's just it's just labeled Cowboys, Niners, Bears, Monday Night Football.

Speaker 1 (30:22):
That's really the greatest of Peter North. Actually, I could
work for that.

Speaker 6 (30:27):
Why verse cowboys on it, reverse cowboy stopping? Samn, what Sam?
I will say this.

Speaker 2 (30:39):
I I watched the Mets win a World series when
I was in grade school.

Speaker 1 (30:44):
When I was a little boy.

Speaker 2 (30:45):
My my son is going to be six, and I
and I go, you know the Mets one buddy, when
I was your age, that's but do you remember your
family reacting to it? Because that's impressionable. I do, and
that's why I remember being like Gary Carter Daryl Strawberry.

Speaker 1 (30:57):
But I was a kindergarten first grader.

Speaker 2 (31:00):
The Niners won their less super Bowl the ninety four
and ninety five campaigns. Steve Young remember Get the Monkey
off the Back? He finally wins one. I was in
tenth grade. I haven't seen one of my favorite teams
wins since then. I always debate with Danny, when's the
best time for your team to win? I feel like
right now, if you're a fortyish year old guy, you're
an adult, you got kids, you appreciate it on a

(31:22):
different level. I feel like if one of my teams won,
I feel like the appreciation would be so much more.
Now I feel like Cavino as an arrogant and I'll
say it, super arrogant, flexen.

Speaker 1 (31:34):
Jersey jo that he was.

Speaker 2 (31:37):
You think he appreciated those nineties Yankees championships when he
was a twenty year old jerk. Yeah, And I'll explain
why in a minute after all the insults, I mean,
let me absorb that and I'll tell you why.

Speaker 1 (31:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (31:47):
But Danny g why do you disagree with Rich? Because
Rich says now would be the perfect time because he's
in a mature place now, waited a long time, He's
not too old right there in the pocket of it. Match.

Speaker 4 (31:59):
I think as a kid, you're not a overthinking it.
You're just excited and you live in the moment. As
an adult, We've talked about this several times on our show.
You're like, where do I go from here? What now?
We talked about that a few weeks ago. Remember Rich,
where a lot of players feel that way, fans even
feel that way. Okay, the parade came and went, and
what now?

Speaker 1 (32:19):
Okay? I guess my life was simple. When do you
think is the best time? You know, you just totally
disparage me.

Speaker 2 (32:26):
But I really think when the Yankees won in ninety six,
I was a kid in college, right and that was
the first time I'd seen them win in my grown
up life. They hadn't won since the early eighties. Right,
I was a little, tiny kindergartener Scheffler's twenty nine. It's

(32:46):
a good time to see his cowboys win. Here's why
it mattered to me.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
Then.

Speaker 2 (32:51):
I was at that pivotal stage in my life trying
to figure out who I was and who I wanted
to be as a man, as a young man, I'm
in college right, just trying to figure your life out.

Speaker 1 (33:00):
I can't tell you.

Speaker 2 (33:01):
How much you could say false confidence, you said arrogance.
I really felt like rooting for a winner made me
feel like a winner, Like we're the Yankees, dude. I
was at the parade, you know, I was like on
team Jeter and all these young I felt like I
was part of that winning attitude in that mindset, and
I feel like that confidence really lifted me as a

(33:22):
person in a lot of ways right when it mattered.
So for me, I think that pocket of twenty something
really is a good time because you carry that pride
with you and you got an extra strut in your step,
and it matters more then when you're coming up in
life than it does as an older guy like you
waited a long time, you earned it.

Speaker 1 (33:40):
It's always fun. I get that.

Speaker 2 (33:41):
But we're trying to say, well, what's the best. Well
let's go to dB for an update. But I'll leave
you with this nugget and then we'll discuss more ooh nuggets.
I you know, if you're roughly forty, I feel like
you've seen twenty plus years of your adult life of nothing.
And then if you do see your team winning your forties,
like oh, like the weight was worth it. You win

(34:02):
in your twenties, it's almost like spoiled. It's like God,
but you know what I got to enjoy, Like I said,
the parades, you know, all the fun that went with
all those victories. As a guy in his forties pushing fifties,
you're gonna be out there jumping around at the parade.

Speaker 1 (34:16):
Not the way you would have anyway, but you know
you have now you have access anyway.

Speaker 2 (34:19):
dB.

Speaker 1 (34:20):
What's going on with.

Speaker 5 (34:20):
Friend Ravens Tunn and Isa likely injured at the end
of practice today. The message from head coach John Harball
is that likely rolled his ankle and will miss a
few weeks. More tests expected to be needed. Same thing
with Brown's cornerback Martin Emerson Junior, not with the ankle,
but of the achilles. The NFL network says, Unfortunately, the
team believes it is a serious injury, so Emerson will

(34:42):
undergo more tests. Giants Wade receiver Molik Neighbors expected to
be okay, just diged up with a shoulder injury and
workouts today.

Speaker 2 (34:48):
Well.

Speaker 5 (34:49):
Chiefs wad receiver Hollywood Brown left practice with a left
leg injury. He should practice tomorrow, though, According to NFL
insider Jordan Schultz, and the Chargers will start Trey Lancet
quarterback in Thursday's Hall of Fame game against the Lions
Orioles to top the Blue Jay sixteen to four in
game one of a doubleheader. Royals designated picture Rich Hill
for assignment. He's rookie shortstop Jacob Wilson on the injured

(35:09):
list with a fractured forearm, and Happy Gilmore too. Debuted
with forty six point seven million viewers on opening weekend,
the largest US opening weekend in Netflix history.

Speaker 1 (35:19):
That's crazy, dude, Do it think what you want? I mean,
not that I had.

Speaker 2 (35:23):
It was like a rare take, but Kevino and I
off the air had discussed like we were like, I
know Wednesday and squid game, they have big things. But
I was like that Gilmour, do you know any human
that didn't watch it? And the answer is forty something
households watch.

Speaker 1 (35:36):
So there you go. All right, thank you guys, Thank
you dB.

Speaker 2 (35:39):
We got more Covino and Richell took more NFL, more
cowboys and this Christian Wilkins story is wild, so we
got to get to that all next on Covino and Rich,
it's funny you play where have all the cowboys gone?
Sad they ran away when she didn't shave her armpits? Yeah,
because we have the answer. Rich just said it. Sorry,

(35:59):
they saw her Harry armpits and they all scattered. They
all got on their horses and galloped away.

Speaker 1 (36:09):
Where fans gone? Sorry, I stole your armpit joke, you know?

Speaker 2 (36:14):
And Rich on Fox Sports Radio that time, guys, time
for the tire rack play of the day. The Brewers
bat stayed hot on yellick drill sit deepen, alright, this
is way back Tucker looking.

Speaker 1 (36:29):
Wall, top of the wall. It's gone.

Speaker 6 (36:31):
It went over.

Speaker 4 (36:33):
Oh my yellisoit to run home run off the yellow
sand end of the Cubs bullpen.

Speaker 1 (36:38):
That's out of here.

Speaker 2 (36:39):
Hey, I was courtesy of the Brewers Radio Network and
that's our tirec play of the day. For over forty years,
Tirak has been helping find the right tires for how,
what and where customers drive. Ship fast and free back
by Free Road has a protection with convenient insallation options
like mobile tire installation. Yeallich is back in a nice way.
He's a good dude, really nice guy. Former MVP A

(37:00):
I right about that, yeah, right? Twenty home runs now
last year, eleven year before that, nineteen he had fourteen,
he had nine. Remember is a guy that hit forty
four home runs in twenty nineteen. So it's nice to
see him back. I know we batted a lot of injuries.
A nice kid and a neighbor. I've seen him in
the grocery store, no way. Yeah, and he's a nice
hot mom. He's a nice dude, right, he does have.

Speaker 1 (37:21):
A hot mom with it then, Danny, we've interviewed him,
is a really nice guy. Again. Thank you also for
not choosing the padres walking off the Mets as the title.
I wanted to spare you.

Speaker 2 (37:30):
Thank you so much, and I know you hate the
Padres winning also as a Dodgers fan, so you know
that's what happens when.

Speaker 1 (37:35):
You screw with one.

Speaker 2 (37:35):
So that one hurt, didn't it. We're gonna get to
that later. I'm not saying the metro to one, but
we'll get to a little MLB. I thought about the
question at hand, though, Rich, before we take your phone
calls at eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox at
Covino and Rich, Scott Scheffler said he'd give up a
major title he has four of them to see the
Cowboys finally win.

Speaker 1 (37:56):
He's only twenty nine, he's never seen them win. That's gross.

Speaker 2 (38:01):
And then it got Rich thinking, got us thinking, well,
when's the best time to see your team win? When
you were a kid, you're impressionable in your twenties thirties,
when you're an old guy, and you waited your whole
life to see it, Like, when does it mean the most?
When the Yankees started winning? For me, here's another reason
why I think, like in your twenties was great because
you rode on that wave, you rode that confidence. You

(38:24):
went to the parades, you were at the games because
you were young and you were excited about it and
you had the time to get there and do those things.
There was also something about, like I said, being on
that ride with them. When I say with them, you're
around the same age, so you feel like you're kind
of part of it. Like, yeah, man, Jeter, that's my guy.

(38:45):
Even when you're old, you're rooting for little kids. When
you're a little kid, you don't know anything anyway, and
you're just rooting for, you know, older guys who were
your heroes. It was kind of really cool to think
like these were my peers in a way, these guys
were guys my age. I root they could have been
my friends. I used to say, what you're saying because
we have a good buddy, Mark Zito, who is a
big Patriots fan. Yeah, he's about ten years younger than us.

(39:07):
He's like their thirties, right, And I remember he always
looked at Tom Brady and those guys as his like,
you know, heroes but around his same age, and he
got to watch that dynasty. Yeah, like you grew up
and with them. You know, those are your guys. You
grew up with them, you saw them win, you were
on that roller coaster. So I really do think in
your in your twenties when they're playing. That's the pocket.

(39:30):
There's there's pros and cons to everything. It's always great
to see your team win. But what are your thoughts? Yeah,
I mean, I mean we're gonna take a few phone
calls at the top. But let me just point this
out as well. Do kids play a role in this?
Like let's say your dad and you're like, well, you
know what would be sme even the most special if
my kids and I could appreciate it together. Maybe the
answer is if you have a son or daughter and

(39:50):
you're like, when my kid's a teenager, and if I'm
like forty or fifty, that's the time. That's a ticket.
That's that take it so well, we'll take your feedback.
We got a lot more to get to coiving on
Rich right here on FSR
