in Arizona. Yeah, here representing we're gonna have a good time.
It's sort of a bro trip, but we're going to
(00:27):
report on the Cardinals forty nine ers this weekend.
Speaker 2 (00:30):
Brostrip, I'm here to get Brock pretty a pep talk.
Here you go, Brock.
Speaker 1 (00:34):
That's the real reason.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
So we're lying from Arizona, Covino and Rich. We have
lots to get to Rich's big TV game of the week,
the game that's sweeping the nation brain wave. But first
and first, mostly like we always do the weeknds, here
we be rocking out.
Speaker 4 (00:50):
Let's go all right, hey CNR on FSR. Al Right,
we gotta get to so much today. Your boy, Aaron Judge.
You gotta be happy about that.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Call the judge and get some fudge. That's the only
thing that's making me happy. Even though it shouldn't. It
should be obvious that he's your MVP. We will talk
about it. Congratulations to Aaron judge deserving seventeen to thirteen.
I don't know if it was that close, but we're
broadcasting live again from Arizona.
Speaker 1 (01:17):
The rest of the.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
Crew, iOS Samuel IAMY two's Danny g Are, super producer
Dan Byer. Everybody back at the Fox Sports Radio studios
in Los Angeles, And if you miss any of today's show,
remember to search Covino and Rich wherever you stream, follow,
rate and review five stars only because anything less is uncivilized.
So besides all of our games and weekend hob nobby
(01:39):
getting you into the weekend, I gotta say this first.
I will explain that everybody is safe in sound, like
your favorite song Wrench, everybody is safe in sound. But
I got extremely disappointing news. You know, things happen in life.
But again, I don't want anyone to worry. I just
want to share the story in a few minutes. Okay,
(02:02):
so stay tuned to that. It's any could feel. If
you could feel the disappointment in my soul right now,
then you're dead on because I am so disappointed, happy
to be here broadcasting and hanging with you guys. But
I'll explain. However, there was a game last night we
got to talk about it.
Speaker 2 (02:19):
Oh yeah, the question really is Drake May? Is him
or is he? Because we don't quite know.
Speaker 4 (02:28):
It's the big question today and I'm hearing to tell
you that I think he is.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Well.
Speaker 3 (02:33):
Keep in mind, you could be prisoner of the moment.
You can't deny that the guy is great. But people
live in a world of headlines and people love to
say things like.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
He's the next Tom Brady.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
I mean, I will admit this.
Speaker 3 (02:52):
They didn't struggle really that long, Like they found their
guy immediately. It's like a guy who lost his wife
and then found another hot one a few years later.
It happened really quick. There was no really downtime and
down period for the Patriot. There's some Cam Newton years
in there, but it seems like they are back and
in full force again, beating the Jets yesterday to kick
(03:13):
off Week eleven, twenty seven fourteen. They're now nine and two.
But if you read like what people are saying on
social media, like Tom Brady was cloned, man, he's Tom Brady?
Is he really Tom Brady?
Speaker 2 (03:25):
Is he him?
Speaker 3 (03:26):
As the kiddo say as Rich just said eight seven
seven ninety nine on Fox, that's the question.
Speaker 1 (03:30):
Plus there's a whole story about his wife.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Well, here's the thing.
Speaker 4 (03:34):
When you ask yourself, is Drake May the real deal? Essentially,
you gotta remind yourself. Yet he was a top level pick.
It's not like he's some guys just like got lucky.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
I get it, you know.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
They not a surprise. But not everybody pans out either.
As you see in the NFL, people love to.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
Say, we'll look at their schedule.
Speaker 4 (03:53):
It's week and I will forever hate that argument because
you only play who's on your schedule. You can't dictate
be like we want tougher competition. You play who's on
your schedule. And if you think back Danny G Week one,
the Patriots lost to your Raiders.
Speaker 1 (04:09):
Yo, what up, Danny g?
Speaker 5 (04:10):
Oh yeah, Gino Smith looked excellent in that.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
Game, and we thought like, oh man, Patriots, what a
rough Week one?
Speaker 2 (04:17):
They lost to the Raiders. Then we thought, for a minute,
your Raiders might be good. Since then, get this, since
then this team is gone.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
One nine in one.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Drake May stepped up and again they're playing the Jets
two hundred and eighty one yards one Tuddy but just
looking solid and the whole team sort of vibes around them.
They're four and two at home and nine and two overall.
The Patriots are the real deal. Of course there's the Cults,
of course, Theirs, the Broncos, of course there's the Chiefs.
Speaker 1 (04:51):
But gotta be high on the Patriots. Is he the guy.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Or are we just really excited that he could be
or appears to be, or seems to be the next
Tom Brady?
Speaker 4 (05:00):
Well in a world where everyone clearly loves to gamble,
that's another storyline in the world of sports lately.
Speaker 3 (05:06):
He's gonna hate that comparison, if not speaking out about
it already, it's like feeling really big shoes. It's like,
let me just be the best Drake May I could be,
because you're never gonna like being compared to Tom Brady
is the worst thing in the world. It's like, and
I hate to give you a Yankee example, it's like,
who was always gonna follow Jeter? That was always a conversation.
That's what Vaulty's haunted by. Right now, Look at the.
Speaker 4 (05:29):
Odds right now via DraftKings sports Book, Drake May is
your favorite to win the MVP. I repeat, Drake May
is your favorite to win the MVP. So I look
at this as an opportunity to say what's the better bet?
Because Danny j dan Byer I was sam Our team
back in LA. Can we all agree that, like, we're
(05:50):
not quite sure that is the result? Fast forward the
second half of the year. Is I mean, would you
be confident in your chest behind Drake?
Speaker 6 (05:58):
All right?
Speaker 2 (05:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Would you do?
Speaker 2 (05:59):
Narratives change week to week?
Speaker 1 (06:01):
And you know this because we talk about it.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
You know, he could all of a sudden have a
few bad games and then we're saying Drick may might
be ass That's just how the sports world works.
Speaker 2 (06:11):
It's a very fickle fan base.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
We love to cheer people when they're hot and tear
them down when they stink.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
So we'll see.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
It's still way early, I mean even though it's week
eleven already, but anything can happen in the next few weeks.
Speaker 1 (06:24):
Why don't you do what you do best? Schedule watch?
Speaker 2 (06:27):
Oh Sam, I have to do it. We schedule watch.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
Maybe let's break it down, let's figure it out.
Speaker 2 (06:32):
Oh boy, the rich loves to look at the schedule,
game schedule watching.
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Yeah, st you figure it out watching?
Speaker 4 (06:40):
All right, let's take a look at where the Patriots
go from here because you could say, all right, well, liston,
they're nine and two. They play at the Bengals. That
is a winnable game. Yeah, ten and two they play
the Giants in New England. Eleven and two they play
the Bills. Let's assume the Bills and pat split eleven
(07:00):
and three. Okay, the Ravens who are fighting, right, they're
back on track.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Maybe eleven and four.
Speaker 1 (07:06):
We'll do that, okay, Yeah, Jets, twelve.
Speaker 4 (07:08):
And four, Dolphins who will be probably playing for nothing.
This Patriots team could go thirteen and four. And then
you're saying, well, that seems like a possibility that Drake
may could be your MVP if he continues to play
the way.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
He's been playing. But let me give you the Vegas
odds of other guys in the.
Speaker 3 (07:27):
Mix, and he plays some stinkers. Paddon knows numbers playing
the Jets again and yeah, so if he keeps it up,
that's definitely gonna be the conversation.
Speaker 2 (07:38):
I mean, it is all right.
Speaker 4 (07:39):
Ask yourself and you guarantee that it's a quarterback. Danny
g Ian, we've talked about this.
Speaker 2 (07:42):
What do you think is it could be a lot
of buzz round tailor.
Speaker 5 (07:45):
I was just gonna say, I sent you guys the
side by side comparison with Adrian Peterson the last time
a running back won the MVP for the league twenty twelve.
Taylor's on track right now to better Adrian Peterson's numbers
that MVP season.
Speaker 3 (08:01):
And he's getting the chance, and he's getting the looks
and he's getting people talking.
Speaker 1 (08:05):
It's sort of a bit of a campaign.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
I mean, to quote my cousin Vinnie. The stats are
almost ah dentical. But Jonathan Taylor right now plus six hundred.
If you want to play gambling man, if you want
to be uh Kenny Rodgers, if you want to be
the gambler, he's plus six hundred right now. The favorite
to an MVP is Drake May at plus two thirty five.
And if you're not a gambler, that means you bet
one hundred, you win two thirty five. Right now, Jonathan
(08:29):
Taylor plus six hundred, you bet one hundred my money
on that.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
That's six hundred, you know.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
How so up and down the season has been. Let
me give you the top four. Taylor at plus six hundred.
Speaker 3 (08:40):
People were high on the Patriots a few weeks ago,
I mean on the Steelers a few weeks ago.
Speaker 4 (08:44):
Mahomes plus five hundred, Drake May's number one at two
thirty five. I feel like the bet and it's not
even the greatest odds to gamble with, but I feel
like Matthew Stafford's MVP. Matthew Stafford plus two fifty.
Speaker 3 (09:00):
Well tonight his great season, but his story isn't as
fun and as exciting as Drake May.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
Right now, Well, guess what to reference your own bonehead,
your own Yankees, Aaron Judge, what did you say yesterday?
Speaker 2 (09:13):
It's not about the story, bro, It's about how good
you are. Because if it was about the.
Speaker 4 (09:16):
Story, cal Raley would be MVP. So it's not about
the story. Who cares if Drake May is a better story?
Matthew Stafford right now, you want to hear this.
Speaker 3 (09:24):
This is wild, Get this break it down, because again,
not enough people. Look, we live this social media life,
and we follow the buzz and we feel the hype,
and we talk to our friends and I chop it
up at.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
The barber shop. You're the only guy I know that's
saying this right now.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Well, I mean, Vegas has him number two.
Speaker 4 (09:43):
But listen to this, and by the way, Everyone's wife
now is a star, right, Matthew Stafford's wife does a podcast.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Drake May's wife. We're gonna get to her in a second.
She's like the sweetest little podcasts are like bungholes.
Speaker 1 (09:56):
Like bungholes, You're right, everybody has one and most of
them stink.
Speaker 4 (10:00):
Drake May's wife is on social media doing little recipes
and everyone's loving her. She's the first lady of New England.
They're saying that he posted in twenty twenty when they
were both so young. He's like breaking in the twenty
twenties with a ten and they're saying they're the most adorable,
like small town field couple. Quite the opposite of Tom
Brady and Giselle. So, Drake May, everyone's wife. If you're
(10:23):
a superstar quarterback, look at a you know, if you
want to talk about Justin Herbert, he's in your top
five or six MVP voting him and Madison Beer. So
you're an NFL quarterback these days, it's almost shocking if
you're not aware of who their wife or girlfriend is.
Speaker 1 (10:36):
The wags.
Speaker 4 (10:37):
Let's talk about Matthew Stafford's statsoh, because this guy's always
been really good. I mean, he's a guy that's gonna
be a Hall of Famer.
Speaker 3 (10:46):
They were talking about when Clayton Kershaw recently, I forget
who was when I saw him being interviewed, and he
was like, dude, I go to watch him. They went
to high school together and grew up together, which is
crazy that went to high school with so great nobody, right,
they grew up together the high school.
Speaker 2 (11:01):
The fact Greek guy named Gus.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Most people you don't go to high school with a
bunch of nobody's these two competing together, two superstars from
the same high school.
Speaker 4 (11:12):
It's like when you hear Adam Sandler's roommates with him,
he was jut up at judd Apatown.
Speaker 3 (11:16):
It's like it's like when you see the Charlie Sheen
documentary and he grew up with Chris and Sean Penn
and George Clooney.
Speaker 1 (11:21):
It's like I grew up.
Speaker 3 (11:22):
With nobody the Friends of a Week, Right, So Clayton
Kershaw was like, I can't imagine you see me hobbling out.
He almost had a heart attack cheering that they won
the World Series. He goes, I can't believe that my
buddy I went to high school is still competing at
this level, and you know, it is remarkable. Not enough
people are talking about how great he is for the
age he is. He is thirty seven years old. Yes,
(11:45):
but you saw Clayton Kershaw on the Field Series and
you felt cow many years he played.
Speaker 4 (11:50):
You felt like they when Clayton Kershaw came to that game,
they met his whole wheeled out like Whitey Ford or something.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
It felt like it was the oldest dude on planet Earth.
Speaker 3 (11:59):
So the fact that he he's still playing quarterback in
the NFL, that dude couldn't even get on the mound anymore.
Speaker 4 (12:04):
Let it be known that right now Matthew Stafford has
twenty five touchdowns two interceptions.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
That is by far the best having a career. So
he's having a career year.
Speaker 4 (12:17):
And he's already in my mind, a Hall of Famer.
And I don't want to say waste it away, but
he's a guy. He's a guy that for years in Detroit,
right for years and years and years in Detroit, this
guy just put up big numbers on a team that
really wasn't doing much.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
He goes to the.
Speaker 4 (12:37):
Rams, wins the super Bowl, and every year he's in
the mix. So you could argue that Matthew Stafford is
your MVP.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.
Speaker 3 (12:48):
That storyline, for whatever reason, though, isn't as juicy or
as exciting as.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
We found our next Tom Brady. But it doesn't matter
if he's the MVP. But is Drake? I'm just saying,
is Drake May the guy? Is he? You know?
Speaker 4 (13:00):
What?
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Is he on the field?
Speaker 3 (13:02):
Here's my impression and I'm say this respectfully. Yeah, his record,
the way his team rallies around him, his stats, his
winning attitude, the beautiful story about his wife, all those
things he said.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
Can't deny it, can't take it away.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
I think as far as star power, just personality, he
just seems too too star too normal and average of
a guy, you know, like Tom Brady. You can say
the same thing about Tom Brady. But tom Brady was
like next level handsome and he stood out.
Speaker 1 (13:36):
I don't.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
I don't feel like he stands out that much on
the field. He does, but he's not. He doesn't have
the charisma to be that big of a star right now.
Or is that just because he's young?
Speaker 1 (13:46):
What do you think?
Speaker 2 (13:48):
Do you see what I'm saying? Did you say what
I'm saying?
Speaker 3 (13:50):
I'm not saying you judge MVPs based on that, but
I'm saying, is he the next big face of the league.
Speaker 1 (13:56):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
There is a great article. He's putting up great numbers,
that's all that miss. I read article about what Drake
May is doing in New England and I actually wrote
it down.
Speaker 3 (14:04):
And I'm Drake made it be like a bit boring.
That's That's really what I'm saying. In the nicest way,
guess what he wins, and that's all that matters. I
get that you're not wrong.
Speaker 4 (14:12):
And I say that because the article that I read, Yeah,
and it wasn't just a headline. Get this guy's I
actually read the article. His teammates are saying his best
quality is I'm gonna say a word. Your mom's gonna
get mad because it's not a real world humbleness.
Speaker 2 (14:26):
It's humility, you idiot. No, they're saying that he is humble,
and I respect chill.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Please understand humble and chill.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
I respect that, But this is the NFL and I
feel like you need a little bit of uh, I
don't know, a little bit of.
Speaker 1 (14:40):
Give me a better word than pizzazz rich.
Speaker 3 (14:42):
I think I want you to go with pizzazz I
think I want you to stick with you. No, and
all that matters, Moxie, there you go. You know, all
that matters is right now, he's approaching three thousand yards
twenty tuddies, he only has five picks.
Speaker 2 (14:54):
He's slaying it. He's a stud.
Speaker 3 (14:56):
He's a six foot four, two hundred and twenty five
stallion on the pag So I'm not trying to downplay him.
It's like when someone's that good, you look for something
to nitpick on. I find that to be an important
quality though, as a leader or face of a team
in the NFL and as a quarterback. You know how
Colin Cowherd often talks about quarterback face. He has the face,
(15:17):
but does he have that sort of not not leadership, Moxie,
good one, Sam, And is that important?
Speaker 4 (15:23):
No?
Speaker 3 (15:24):
But that's my only criticism, which is a good thing.
That's a good thing. Believe me, I'm not hating. I'm
just stating, so Drake May. The question is if we're
asking is he him? That's my only critique? Does that matter? No?
It's a win now league and he's winning, and that's
all that matters. I'm just letting you know how I
feel there's a little sense of boring when it comes
(15:45):
to him.
Speaker 2 (15:45):
And that may change.
Speaker 4 (15:47):
He's winning a boring a little bit. Well, is Drake
may him yes or no? And of the Patriots for real,
let us know what you think eight seven seven nine
nine non fox.
Speaker 2 (15:58):
I think they are.
Speaker 4 (15:59):
I think that we hate to think they are because usually,
I've said this before, when a team is a dynasty,
the rest of the league loves it when they suck
for a good five plus years to really find their
footing again. It really seems and you know what, it's
because time's flying too. We forget that to Tom Brady
played three years for the Bucks.
Speaker 2 (16:19):
He's been retired a few years.
Speaker 4 (16:21):
It's it's been about that period of time for the
Patriots to rebuild. I think we just forget times flying.
It's not like Tom Brady was there two years ago.
He went to the Bucks. They sucked and now they're good.
Speaker 2 (16:32):
Brady had a whole stint with the Bucks. He's been
retired for years.
Speaker 3 (16:35):
It's not true. It's you know, it's like, remember when
we turn around quick? Yeah, things do turn around quick.
Let me give you a little blind comparison. I know,
Colin loves to do this. These four quarterbacks have they're
all within a couple hundred yards, twenty eight hundred, twenty
four hundred, twenty three hundred, twenty six hundred, twenty touchdowns,
(16:55):
five interceptions, twenty five touchdowns, two interceptions, seventeen and five
in nineteen and eight. And that's May, Stafford Mahomes, and
Justin Herbert. Those are the four guys were talking about.
Speaker 4 (17:07):
They're not that far away from each other, right, So,
I mean Drake May could be MVP.
Speaker 3 (17:13):
Gratulations And I do like the story, like you said,
the other side story aside from him doing it again
last night and being the guy is he him is
the question? Is the nice story of his wife Anne
is the total opposite.
Speaker 1 (17:28):
Of what New England was used to with Giselle.
Speaker 4 (17:30):
Oh yeah, they're saying that he's like the very community
based she's doing cooking recipes.
Speaker 3 (17:36):
That's not just the contrast between him and his wife
and Brady and his wife and what New England was
used to, what they were accustomed to, and now they
got Anne who seems to be fitting in and they
seem to be to be embracing the story to be
So your thoughts at He's seven seven ninety nine on Fox,

What but No.
Speaker 4 (21:21):
I heard him say last night if you would have
put a twelve on Drake May's jersey, there were times
in the pocket where you would have said, oh, look,
they're showing highlights of Tom Brady. He's composed, and know
what we're forgetting. That's what I'm saying that he doesn't
want that dog. You think he just wants.
Speaker 3 (21:36):
To be the best Drake May he could be. I
don't want to be compared to TV twelve.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
I think we're forgetting sometimes that last year there were
times where we're like, yo, look at the guts and
huemos on Drake May.
Speaker 2 (21:48):
We forget that.
Speaker 4 (21:49):
There were glimmers last year where we felt like, you know,
this kid's got some balls.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
I like this guy.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
Yeah, And there were moments where Drake May did look
really good.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
I like him. Everybody likes some numbers speak for the
he's winning us all that matter.
Speaker 4 (22:02):
He's twenty three years old, and last year, when you
look at rookie quarterbacks, everyone from Justin Herbert to Matthew
Stafford to Peyton Manning to Drew Brees, all these guys
back in the day Tom Brady, they're td to interception
ratio their turnovers. All this stuff is not good. Last
year Drake May on a losing team, fifteen touchdowns, ten interceptions.
(22:25):
Like for a guy that had a pretty decent rookie year,
we're acting a little too surprised and only five picks
this year, we're acting surprise that he's having a pretty
damn good year. At this pace, he's gonna end up
right now, they're saying, at this pace when you just
do the math, right hill ed up with thirty something tuddies,
like you know, less than twenty picks, Like he's got
(22:46):
a really solid year and the patrious.
Speaker 3 (22:49):
Fourteen to fifteen allions based on the schedule. If he
just joined us, and if my only criticism right now
is he appears to be a little bland and boring,
he's not that flashy, then maybe that's a good thing.
Maybe that's refreshing for the NFL. If that's my only criticism,
that is a good thing. I'm stretching and I'm reaching
to find something that the one last thought about that
(23:11):
isn't great. I totally forgot something.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
We said.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
We act as though the Patriots were a dynasty, sucked
for a year, and now they're just great again. It
feels that way though, But they went through Cam Newton.
My dude, I'm a Niners fan. I forgot that, like,
oh yeah, the whole mac Jones grand opening, grand clothing
that was in there too. So it's not like it
happened overnight. It's been a good five years of like,
(23:34):
all right, what are we doing here?
Speaker 2 (23:35):
Now?
Speaker 4 (23:35):
The Patriots, like any good run organization, found their way
back to success nine and two, only nine win team.
They got the Thursday game, of course, but they're ready
to roll. Man, We'll say, are we prisoners of the moment?
Are we just loving the story? Are we just yearning
and searching for the next Tom Brady?
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Or is he him? Is the question and your answers,
we appreciate it, you know what? Any other thoughts?
Speaker 3 (23:58):
Danny g Iowa, Sam Fellas chime in, and of course
eight seven to seven ninety nine on Fox, before I
give you my miserable update.
Speaker 5 (24:06):
Covino, you asked that question, are you a prisoner of
the moment?
Speaker 1 (24:09):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (24:09):
Or not?
Speaker 5 (24:11):
I think it's a little bit of both. I think
May is legit. The Patriots are not battle tested yet,
but they're not as bad in the past five season
seasons as we think either. I was looking it up
forty two and thirty three the past five seasons. Yeah,
so not as bad as what we think. But as
a Raiders fan, I'm not ready for the Patriots to
(24:32):
be good again. Like, as a hater on the Patriots,
I want them to stink for like two or three
more seasons as.
Speaker 3 (24:38):
Great as they were for so long. I feel like
they should stink a little more. But that's just not
how it's going. Well, that's sorry, New England.
Speaker 4 (24:45):
That's I mean, that's the scent of it in all sports, right,
Like when a team is so good for so long,
like there will be a time and I know this
sounds ridiculous, but there'll be a time where Mahomes is done,
Kelsey's retired, Andy Reid calls it a day and the
chief stink again.
Speaker 2 (24:58):
They will stink.
Speaker 4 (24:59):
And imagine if within a few years they find their
next guys.
Speaker 2 (25:02):
And they're like, what do we do? What this supposed
to suck for longer?
Speaker 4 (25:05):
I think we just thought that the Pat's would suck
for longer because when we were kids, they sucked for.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
A long time. No, absolutely, they sucked for a long time.
Speaker 3 (25:13):
Hey, so hey, props, major props when we're talking about
this gay comparing him to Matthew Stafford. Stafford's having a
career year. He's doing something right. So believe me if
you think I was trying to take something away from
him before, I'm not.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Well.
Speaker 4 (25:27):
We talked about that MVP race and right now Vegas
has Drake May favored Dan Bayer. Seahawks will have a
lot to do this weekend with whether or not Matthew
Stafford is still towards the top of that conversation. Because
Rams Seahawks, that is the best game of the week.
I know you might say, well what about Denver and
you know the Chiefs. I'm telling you that Seahawks Rams game.
(25:48):
I am so intrigued because they're both seven and two.
Who's gonna who's gonna take this week? To tell the
rest of the NFL? Yo, We're it, so we'll see.
Speaker 7 (25:59):
Sam Darnold was not mentioned in your guys conversation, and
I will right, but I don't know if he should
be necessarily. I think that it's easy.
Speaker 3 (26:08):
It's been like, oh, he's more elite than anyone gave
him credit for.
Speaker 1 (26:13):
That's been the storyline with him.
Speaker 7 (26:14):
Is that fair and and well he was in the
conversation last year. I just I've been complaining about the turnovers.
And this may be just being a fan of the
team and thinking that the glass is always half empty.
But my argument, if you look even further down the list,
you're gonna see Jackson Smith and Jigba.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
That's the only guy.
Speaker 7 (26:32):
Donald throws two like there's no one else there, and
they don't have much of a running game, so anything
that they do offensively is really based on the success
of Jackson Smith and Jigba. So when I see like
Donald so high up, I'm like, JSN should be up
as well. And you talk about Jonathan Taylor challenging rushing marks,
JSN is challenging receiving marks this season. So I'm surprised
(26:56):
he's not going to win it. But I'm just surprised that.
Speaker 4 (27:00):
I think Sam Darnold, if anything, should be getting a
hell of a lot more credit than he gets because people.
Speaker 3 (27:06):
Are like, oh, you have a sa him on us, though, Rich,
thank you Dan Byer for bringing that up, because for
whatever reason it is, it's it's overlooked quite often on
this show and its on a lot of media platforms.
Speaker 7 (27:20):
I would just say this because I was actually saying
that Donald shouldn't like he's on the list, like he's
he's like sixth or seventh. But my point is, Jackson
Smith and Jigba has been so much a part of
that team, and if he's the only guy that that
Donald throws to, really the next closest. Jason has eighty
five targets, Cooper Cup has thirty five targets.
Speaker 4 (27:41):
I mean, if I had an Jigba, I want to
be out of the Guillotine League.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
So you know, you think about it.
Speaker 3 (27:48):
By the way, Rich, this is a great opportunity for
Drake May to really make his mark and win an
MVP or anyone else because it's a down yere for
mahomes it down here for Josh Allen who talking about
were talking about Shoheo Tani earlier today on our flight
to Arizona. We were saying, this guy, you know, because
Wan Soto came in second, third, third, he Shore second,
(28:09):
Werber second, sho Heo Tani wins again. Showho Tani might
win a few more blocking these dudes, all these dudes
from ever winning one period.
Speaker 4 (28:19):
Has a productive year, like no one may win the
nl MVP other than Otani for years if Otani's mildly Otani.
Speaker 3 (28:26):
So this is a great year with guys like Allen
and Mahomes having sort of down years, this is a
great year for Drake May to really make his mark.
Speaker 4 (28:34):
Well, you know what, one last thought before your sad
story and Dan Buyer's update, this is a great year
to really appreciate not just Drake May. I'll throw sam
Donold in that conversation because we saw him struggling with
the Jets and then Carolina and you know, the guys
get tossed around like that.
Speaker 2 (28:52):
Then he goes to the forty nine ers and you're.
Speaker 4 (28:54):
Like, well, there seems like a really suitable backup there
in San Francisco. Gets an opportunity in Minnesota, and then
it was almost credit was mildly given to Kevin O'Connell.
He's a quarterback whisperer. You know, he's in Minnesota succeeding
because the coach just knows how to use them. Now
he goes to the Seahawks, they're seven and two and
he's killing it, Like, so, why are we forgetting that?
(29:14):
Oh yeah, Sam Darnold was a again highly drafted quarterback
and it just took a minute. It all goes back
to the sentiment we've talked about all of twenty twenty five.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
Patience, patience, you're a great whistler.
Speaker 1 (29:29):
Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Speaker 3 (29:30):
All right, so your feedback is appreciated. Coveno and Rich
on social media, Coveno and Rich in real life.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Now, before we get the DB's update.
Speaker 3 (29:38):
I'm going to try to make this snappy, and let
me preface a few things. As a parent, you want
to do everything for your kids, everything and anything you
can and make them happy, right of course. And part two,
as a parent, you love to get away and just
have a good time. That's what we're trying to do
here in Arizona.
Speaker 2 (29:55):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:55):
But and I just got the weakest news that sort
of gets in a way of both of those things happening.
So my daughter is sixteen and she's having her sweet
sixteen party next weekend, and this weekend was a huge.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Festival in Los Angeles, and.
Speaker 3 (30:15):
All the kids in her school and all her closest
friends were going to this festival. It's called Camp Flognaw
is Tyler the Creator's brand. And you know, every big
name in hip hop and you know, I guess in
the indie world of music are performing at this festival.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
Really big names artists that I don't know, I really.
Speaker 3 (30:37):
Care about, like I saw Childish Game beIN know I
can tell you, but big big names is Tyler the
creators festival. Kendrick Lamar performed, I think last year. It's
a big deal. It's a huge deal at Dodger State.
It's at Dodger Stadium. Tickets sell out instantly. It's a
whole carnival theme, so it's ferris wheels and rides and
carnival food. Fifty five seventy thousand people show up and
(31:00):
they all watch these shows for two days.
Speaker 2 (31:02):
It's a two day huge event.
Speaker 3 (31:04):
And all the kids in LA and people from all
where the country go and fly there to go to
Camp flog Nah. So it's a big deal, not to me,
but to them. Yes, All of a sudden, Los Angeles
this weekend torrential downpour, rainstorms, rainstorm, and They're like, yeah,
(31:26):
you know, we don't know what we're gonna do it
camp flog Nah, maybe we might have to cancel camp flog.
Speaker 1 (31:33):
I meanwhile, my daughter has.
Speaker 2 (31:34):
So rainy, didn't I was in did you come to
our today in a canoe?
Speaker 1 (31:37):
I did? Yeah, so fast?
Speaker 2 (31:39):
Yeah life preserver on?
Speaker 1 (31:42):
Like yeah that vest from Back to the Future.
Speaker 3 (31:44):
Yeah, so even mind, I went out of my way.
I was using all of our Dodgers connects. Our buddy
Dave Weiss, I had him on standby. Can you get
me tickets for my daughter? It's such a big deal.
So my daughter had tickets, all her friends tickets for
the show this weekend. And it turns out rich They
didn't cancel the concert. They postponed it. But get this,
(32:11):
they postponed it for next weekend, which completely interferes with
my daughter's sweet sixteen party. Not only does my daughter
not to go, you know, not get to go to
the concert, but all of her friends and all of
her best friends are probably going to go to the
concert now missing her party.
Speaker 2 (32:31):
Oh now, I can't tell you.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
How crushed I am. And I'm crushed for not only
my daughter but for myself. We've put so much effort
into this party, dude, especially my daughter. I'm crushed for
her because again, it's like planning a wedding. It's like
it's like a kineta. But you know, we waited a year.
It's her sweet sixteen. We got it at a banquet hall.
(32:54):
You have to book a photo booth, photographers, catering, you
had to get the cake.
Speaker 2 (33:00):
We had a book here and makeup. It's a big deal.
It's a big deal. We have hundreds of kids coming.
Speaker 3 (33:05):
But guess what half of those kids are going to
be going to the concert because it was postponed to
the same day as her party. So what does can
we not do? There's nothing I can what could he do?
Speaker 2 (33:14):
You know what? Think about it? Dude? It's the weakest.
Speaker 5 (33:17):
Wait cove, are you one hundred stuck? Like you can't
get deposits back or any of that.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
We're gonna call during the break.
Speaker 4 (33:23):
Actually I said, well, we hit the when we hit commercial,
call the venue, do you yeah?
Speaker 3 (33:28):
Call the How could you reschedule the party when you
got the holidays coming up? You got venus and banquet
halls already booked up. You don't schedule a whole party.
Super weak and it's not even about like the concert
of the part is I'm crushed for my kid, you know,
And and it sucks because now all of her friends
are going to be forced to make a choice.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
And they all spent money on these tickets, but they go.
Speaker 4 (33:50):
They are refundable, the tickets to the concert tickets are fundable.
Now it's almost a decision of like how much of.
Speaker 2 (33:57):
The each of them. Each of them are going to
be forced to make a decision. It's gonna come down
to decision on each of these guests.
Speaker 3 (34:03):
But guess what, dude, these kids, I don't blame them
for going through the concert. This is well a big
deal to them. They spent money on it, but they
could get their money back.
Speaker 2 (34:12):
Damn you Weather.
Speaker 3 (34:13):
Well, hey, we'll take your feedback and phone calls. That's life.
I get it, that's what the people say. But when
you see your kid crush that way, it only just
crushes your soul. Not to mention rich how much money
I'm spending on this party.
Speaker 4 (34:28):
Now her best friends might not trumped exactly. Oh boy,
all right, let's go to Dan buy for an update.

pause on that because right now I want to get
into our tire rack.
Speaker 1 (37:30):
Play of the Day.
Speaker 3 (37:31):
Oh yeah, Tire, I played the day the Jets tried
to stumble in the way, but the Patriots are on
a roll.
Speaker 8 (37:38):
The Patriots are going to win over the Jets by
the twenty seven or fourteen's final scoring Tonight, They're going
to beat the Jets for the seventeenth time and the
last nineteen.
Speaker 2 (37:49):
Encounters of these Division wibles.
Speaker 8 (37:52):
The Patriots are going to improve the three to zero
in the AFC East.
Speaker 2 (37:57):
They've won their eighth straight game for the first time, an.
Speaker 8 (38:00):
Eight game winning straight for in New England since twenty nineteen.
Speaker 2 (38:05):
Tom Brady was the Patriots quarterback.
Speaker 3 (38:07):
Dan All goes back to TB twelve. The Patriots are
nine to two now. Drake May had a game pass
beat the Jets twenty seven fourteen as courtesy of ninety
eight five the Sports Hub and the Patriots Radio Network.
Speaker 1 (38:20):
That's our Tire Act play of the day.

convenient installation options like mobile tire installation tire Act dot Com.
The way tyre Bink should be Danny G what you
got man?
Speaker 5 (38:38):
Okay, we can't just give all the credit to Drake May.
Trayvon Henderson.
Speaker 2 (38:42):
Yeah, dude, he's man.
Speaker 5 (38:44):
The first rookie in Patriots history with two rushing touchdowns
and one receiving touchdown in a single game. That is
such a weapon for Drake May. So we can't give
enough praise to Henderson.
Speaker 2 (38:57):
Do you see people are saying they finally got his jersey?
Speaker 4 (38:59):
Right, they've been scored the Henderson letters really tight on
the regular jersey and last night those sweet you know
what they call him the nor Easter jerseys.
Speaker 2 (39:08):
I think they look good. Man.
Speaker 4 (39:09):
So Patriots nine and two, And if you want to
take a look back, one last thought Caveno about Drake
May and we'll move on. If you want to go
back to that twenty twenty four draft and really sort
of take a look two years later now a year
and a half, two years later, all right, Number one,
Kayleb Williams in Chicago, that started to seem like, okay,
that makes sense. Number two Jane and Daniels in Washington
(39:29):
last year. He saw that workout immediately, Drake May. Number
three to New England. They had a plan and look
what's happening now. Three right, Marvin Harrison Junior in Arizona.
Number four, he's you know, they just need people around him.
Joe alt To for the Chargers. Malik Neighbors was number six.
So you're seeing that draft people were sort of on
(39:50):
the money with their pick.
Speaker 2 (39:50):
Yeah. Good.
Speaker 4 (39:51):
But until recently you're like, oh, Drake May, huh, yeah,
Drake May. He's the man right now you're Vegas leading
MVP candidate.
Speaker 1 (40:00):
Congrats to him, man, nice win.
Speaker 2 (40:02):
Any thoughts on what you're gonna do at your daughter's party,
you try to just.
Speaker 3 (40:05):
Gonna I mean, when you're planning at a big party
like that, you're lucky just to get that date right.
So I got the banquet booked, got I know, their
teenage b makeup artist on stand by, a photographer.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
You got the catering, the other takes.
Speaker 4 (40:20):
But if a kid chose a concert over a big
party like that, I'd be like, Wow, you really, my friend.
Speaker 2 (40:26):
Nah that that's a yeah.
Speaker 3 (40:27):
They get excited about stuff like that, but I like,
it's a full on carnival fest.
Speaker 2 (40:31):
Yeah, they're all gonna go. They've been waiting for this
for a year.
Speaker 5 (40:35):
Hey, Covino, can you kick at old school and tell
all the vendors that you and the family and your
daughter all have COVID.
Speaker 3 (40:41):
I know, right, what are we doing twenty twenty? Sorry,
I can't postpone the party. I don't think I could
because then it's Thanksgiving and it's Christmas. Is when you
have that party, people are traveling. Boy, it's just bad luck, man,
that's life.
Speaker 2 (40:55):
Well, you know I feel for you.
