Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Ooh ooh, ooh, it's us, it really is.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
And not only that, Look at those dance moves from
Iowa Sam.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
He's up and at him. Look at that guy. It's
too early for that. How does he have the energy.
Speaker 4 (00:19):
To put a perspective for people that don't know Fox
Sports Radio employee Iowa Sam, who's all over the place
running the board today. He has the mannerisms of a
young Conan O'Brien, Yes, yes, which is great, and the
looks of a young Will Ferrell or something.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
I don't know what's going on. That's high compliments.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
Yeah, he's got an afro going on. I can tell
you that. And I love him. And my favorite story
about Iowa Sam, who's playing the xylophone so masterfully so
early in the morning dancing, is that he recently told
us his confirmation name, which is sort of like his
middle name he goes.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
By, is Javier Javier. There he is. That's the best.
Javier Sam so much. You don't know about me again, Gino,
that is rich. We're in for the great Dan Patrick.

Speaker 2 (01:54):
We'll get to that.
Speaker 5 (01:56):
Man.
Speaker 2 (01:57):
I gotta talk about your Yankees.
Speaker 4 (01:58):
I've never seen a fan base sweat a player that
was on their team for one year.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Get off of Juan Sotos wavos.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Everybody needs something to rally around, and he's the target.
Tonight gonna be an action pack day for New York.
Of course, the Knicks play tonight. But speaking of basketball,
I hope you had a Denver Nuggets sort of night,
a Jokis sort of night.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Looks like they're back in action.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Got the thunder up against the wall now, So I
hope you're enjoying some great basketball. We got some great
baseball going on this weekend. Super pump, that is Friday.
Super pumped to be here in for Dan Patrick. Now
while you're still in your car and on your way
to work or whatever on this glorious Friday. Remember we're
on Monday through Friday anyway all the time nation wide,
(02:48):
like the warehouse. We're nationwide two to four on the West,
five to seven on the East, Monday through Friday. But
when they say hey, DP needs you, we're here. Always
fun to hang out with you guys.
Speaker 4 (02:59):
Now, we got to talk about what's going on tonight
because I think, I think forget that. Hell, I know,
tonight is the biggest event that's happening at Madison Square
Garden in the twenty first century. I know you might
think that sounds crazy, but I'll explain a second. But
before we get into Nick Celtics tonight, which is a
big deal, big story, I gotta ask you like the
(03:21):
most immature, dumb question please, And it's A fun question
because I was talking about this with one of the
dads for my kid's little league team yesterday. If you
were watching the Thunder and the Nuggies, Jamal Murray going
off twenty five points and he was sick, not feeling well.
You know, sometimes big game players come up in big spots,
(03:43):
especially when they're not feeling so hot.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Right, kind of how I feel today. It's a big day.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
We're filling in and I feel a little out of it,
you know what. Not because I'm sick because I stuffed
my face yesterday. So I'm like, oh, man, you meet
them all, yeah, over and and waking up so early
my bathroom schedules off, So I'm really like, oh, don't
tell us that, but yeah, man, oh, I ate so
(04:08):
much like a slob yesterday that I'm not feeling that
great right now, I have the same thing, right.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
A relatively immature question for you, but listen, when you
play at an NBA level, a Major League Baseball level,
at NFL level, you're always trying to get the edge, right,
like everyone, that's a big thing in sports.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
You're trying to get the edge, any advantage right, Right.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
You've heard there's players who got stinkys in the NFL
because they you know, they want people to get away
from me.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Yeah, any advantage, any edge. So competitive, the most competitive
people on the planet.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
So if you're a.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
Sick Jamal Murray, do you breathe a little bit on
SGA like maybe thinking like if I have a little
twenty four scores like the Last of Us? Yea, like
the Last of Us.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
If you watch The Last of Us.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
I'm just picturing those deadly green spores when she's in
that elevator bank.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
You know, it is a really dumb question. I'm glad
you prefaced it, but I wouldn't put it past them. Dude,
if the ninetest level, we're talking of the most competitive
people on earth, and I wouldn't be surprised that it
happens in regular life because some people are just that competitive.
Like if Jonas was like, I really want to bring
down CNR. I hate those guys. You know, you'd be
(05:27):
rubbing his germs all over the microphones. I don't know
how that works, you know, but we love.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Jonas and we love everybody here luckily, but.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
You never know, Yeah, find out he rubbed his cheeks
on your mic People are vengeful didn't Mike runs his place.
They'd like, never leave your tooth brush around people you
don't know, or something weird like that, who runs place?
Speaker 2 (05:45):
My point, My point is simple.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
It might soundly mature, but when one of us are sick,
you or our video guy spots the first book, Oh.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
Don't breathe on me, cor I mean COVID change the game. Yeah, well,
I'm saying I hate to bring up that dirty word
that ruined four years of our life.
Speaker 4 (06:07):
I think that if regular people are eye rolling about,
like stay away, don't come to work, if you're feeling
sick and you have a game seven and forty eight hours,
you don't think it's a wild thought to be like,
maybe I'll breathe a little extra on SGA. If I
have a twenty four to forty eight hour little thing going.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
On, maybe I'll give it to them.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
If I was a betting man, and I'm not really,
I'm just more of a cheap skate. I like the action.
I would say no one had this conversation at all.
That's my guess because I think of these that I
put it past people in history and in the past,
and hasn't been done before. As your favorite group the
(06:48):
bear naked lady said, Rich, it's all been done. I'm
sure it has been done before.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
It's all man, and.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
I'm sure it's been done in real life like sabotage.
You think you think these guys are above sabotage. I
mean people are trying. Listening to y'all people's sabotage.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
People are in the middle of a you know, a
pylon in the NFL, and they're you know, grabbing junk
and punching guys, and you know.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
I doubt this happened, but the thought is not as
outrageous and goofy as you think. I bet it's happened before,
because people are are looking for that edge like you
described and sabotaged and want to take people down. And
it might be someone at the office, might be someone
at the warehouse, might be someone at the oil patch
wherever you are, and you're trying to get ahead of
(07:31):
that guy, the sales dude. You might have done something
sneaky and creepy actually to bring him down. And when
you're this competitive, I don't think it's impossible, Rich.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
It's it's probable that it happened, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
The plotlight of every dumb comedy, like the bad guy
tries to get in the way of the good guy,
like oh, he's stuck in traffic, or oh, don't let
him get to the conference. I'm just saying, it's not
want to drink. There's not something crazy. It's not a
wild thought. But hey, last night.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
Do you think that anybody to piggyback your dumb thought here?
Do you think anybody on the flip side is like
I wish he wasn't playing because their health is a concern,
or we passed that kind of like the Jordan flu game.
No one was really like Jordan's stay away. I'm just
saying yesterday was a biggie. We talked about it.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
I'm never the guy that's like told yoursel But okayse
was favored by six yesterday, and I remember saying, like,
not so fast. This game is in Denver. I know, OKC.
Yesterday in Vegas they were still the odds on favorite
to win the NBA title.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
I don't know what that looks like today. I know.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
The Knicks and the Tea Wolves are but were both
plus six hundred. But yesterday they had okay see at
minus one forty. I think when you go to a
game seven. Those odds have been adjusted. But forget that series.
Let's go to New York City tonight.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Oh you know who.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
I wouldn't put this past, by the way, to wrap
up your previous thought, Rudy Gobert, because I think he's
yet to get everybody with his germs.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Yeah, he is the guy that spread COVID if you remember,
that's true.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
Hey, Brie, I was saying, but my crazy is I mean,
you can look me in the eyes and say it's
a dumb thought, but you don't think players are trying
to get the edge.
Speaker 6 (09:13):
It is, but it's not impossible. It seems like too
much biomedical. Like you get the timing of it. You
know it's not gonna play out the way you want.
Probably you're like, I'm gonna cough on this guy in
game one. In my game three, he'll be ill and
he'll be missing the game.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
You've heard times where it's like, yeah, the clubhouse, like
half the team's you know, not feeling well. You've heard
that in sports, like something goes through the locker room
or clubhouse.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
I heard that, Bree.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
You wanted to produce our show for Dan Patrick on
this main stage show she's the one that got Danny
g sick today on purpose, and they started like two
days ago. Yeah, she set them up for it. It's
not impossible, it's improbable. So funny thought, though, because people
are willing to take all sorts of risks for that edge.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
No doubt.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
It's so let's go to tonight Madison Square Garden. The
Knicks cannot under any circumstances. Let this series go back
to Boston for a Game seven. And I can only
compare it to you know, I'm a Mets fan from
New York, but I'm gonna go back to when I
was a little boy, when I was my kid's age,
when when I was for the record, he's just a
(10:21):
man boy right now.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Now I'm a man boy. Now he's a grown man boy.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
My daughter often asked me, Dad, when was the last
time the Mets won the championship? And I reluctantly say,
you know, your little brother who's five six years old.
When I was his age, that's when the Mets won
nineteen eighty six.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
I was in kindergarten.
Speaker 4 (10:42):
But I do remember, just from the highlights and knowledge,
the Mets were playing the Astros in the NLCS, and
that was the year Mike Scott was untouchable. This is
the uh it Kevin bast On that squad was on
that squad, Oh do you remember? There were specula he
knows Mike Scott scuffing the ball like he's unhittable.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
I do.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
The Mets were gonna have to face him in game seven.
Squad for yeah, that was a big squad man. That
Astros team was good, but they were gonna have to
face Mike Scott in a Game seven. So when they
were in extra innings in Game six, there was a
pressure of like, yo, you got to win now, Mets,
(11:24):
because if you face Mike Scott in Game seven, I
don't know if you could beat him. And I feel
that way tonight about the New York Knicks. If you
want to take New York Sports out. My buddy's already
reached out to me.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Got a few East Coast friends out here in LA
and I'm like, dude, what are we doing for the
game tonight. I'm like, well, I'm waking up earlier for
Dan Patrick, so I might be taking a nap later,
but yeah, we gotta get together. Got to do something.
So much on the line might be the biggest night
in a long time for New York sports with the Yankees,
Mets going on tonight, and of course the Knicks. But Rich,
(11:56):
I think what brings the Celtics closer together, why they're
so scary, is because they don't They don't have Jason Tatum,
and I feel that forces everybody to step up and
play harder, and they have a chip on their shoulder
as a result. I'll give you a work analogy. Let's
say it's the Covino and Rich Show. We've been doing
(12:19):
this forever, Cavino and Rich here on Fox Sports Radio
for plus years, right, but we've been working together. If
Rich out of nowhere is a Cavino, I can't make it.
It's not that there's extra pressure on me, but I know,
deep down, subconsciously, well Rich isn't here.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Now I really got to bring it. You're making down
for you're making up for something lost.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
I'm trying to overcompensate because Rich isn't here, So you
know what, I'm doing extra effort. Man, I'm really going
to bring it today. You know, I'm also subconsciously going
to say I'm a show everybody. I don't need this guy.
What yeah, I mean subconsciously, Bro, Yeah, yeah, I'm not
like walking around telling everybody but I don't need this guy,
and I want everybody to know a manu full of
great energy.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
And look out, Celtics, it's the Coveno Show.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
I mean, but Rich will be back tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
But seriously, subconsciously, all these things are going on and
you're putting extra effort into that to show that the
whole team and the whole process doesn't revolve around one guy.
And I think they band together just to prove that, Like, yo,
it's not just the Jason Tatum show. We're great. We're
great with him, but we're great without him too. We're
(13:30):
gonna show that. That's why you don't want to take
any chances. That's why the Knicks have to stomp on
them tonight, because you're right.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
Then it does get a little scared.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
Well to quote your hero as a child mc hammer
gaining momentum.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
You don't want anyone. He also said, look at my eyes, man,
you can't touch this.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
I think if you go back to Boston, your toast,
I just can't see how you're right with the with
the Tatum stuff going back to Boston.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
You gotta finish this.
Speaker 4 (14:00):
Tonight, which is why I think it's the most important
home game and the most important event at Madison Square Garden.
But trust me, there's another theory here in the twenty
first century. Here's I agree. I hate agreeing with you.
What's the other answer going to be? Billy Joel's the show.
I'm a big Billy Joel fan. What the circus Wringling
Brothers when it comes to town?
Speaker 3 (14:19):
Yeah, when Gunther Gable Williams was teaming tigers and Lions,
there's no big fights at the Garden like there were
when our parents were younger.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
The Rangers haven't won a Stanley Cup since nineteen ninety four,
and before that, I remember nineteen forty.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
So tonight we're reminded why it's the world's most famous arena,
no diggity, no doubt. The last big event there was
the dice Man selling out.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
I mean, maybe like a big East tournament Yukon or
Q's back in the day did something. But I'm talking
about the mecca. Madison Square Garden is tonight the biggest game. Yes,
since the year two thousand.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Can you hit that? I know, since the year two thousand. Man,
you did that so early. Thank you sir, thank you
bringing that conan energy.
Speaker 3 (15:12):
Iowa Sam on the ones and twos again, Breeze on
the phones eight seven seven ninety nine.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
Ohs, Fox, don't be scared.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
Hit us up and let's chop it up, especially when
we're giving away prizes. But Rich, there's another theory as
to why you don't want to go back to Boston.
And let's not forget the New York Boston rivalry as
a city, forget about the team just as a city.
It's so big and so fun. I call it the
duel for Johnny theory. Although the team wants to step
(15:40):
up minus Tatum, they also want to like rally around
this something to rally around is scary, And I called
the duel for Johnny theory from the movie The Outsiders.
You know they were rumbling, they were ready to win.
And when they're doing it for someone else, I think
that's when people play big. And I know that sounds corny,
(16:02):
but people get together and like, nah, man.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
We got you. They're telling Tatum, we got you. We're
gonna do it for Jason, do it for Johnny.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
When you throw more factors into the mix like that,
you really see people step up in different ways. It's
also to tie it to sports, the Brett Favre theory
where he had his biggest game on his toughest night
because he was doing it for his dad who passed away.
Now I'm not saying, you know, Tatum's never coming back,
but it's reason to play, for reason to rally around.
(16:30):
I don't think you want to let another team who
has all this going for them, this bonding moment.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
You don't want to let them gain momentum, like you said.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
So that nade Me said Brett favv Yeah, use it
a couple more times because in four days, far far,
far far, Because saying in four days.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
The world is gonna hate him, fly that documentary. I
mean a lot of people hate him on res.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
I think everyone's gonna hate him in four days. There's
a documentary coming out on Netflix and it points out
everything that makes this guy awful. You bring up people,
rallying around people. I think you don't want to admit it.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
As a Yankees fan, it's gonna be tough for you
guys to win the World Series this year without Gert Cole.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
However, if you go back a couple.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
Of years in twenty twenty one, the Atlanta Braves won
the World Series despite Ronald Acunya Junior being hurt at
a pivotal point in missing the season.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
Sometimes losing a key player actually makes the team better.
It sounds crazy and ridiculous, but losing Jan Soto, for example,
really did make the Yankees lineup better, forced them to
make other moves.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Other players had to step up.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
You're a more well rounded team as opposed to relying
on one player or expecting one player to bring it.
So if the Celtics are able to rally around this, yeah,
they're a dangerous squad still and you're seeing it. So
it puts that much pressure on what the Knicks have
to do, which is win at home. And it brings
(18:01):
again the question up, is this the biggest night at
the Garden in the twenty first century?
Speaker 2 (18:06):
That's really the year.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
Two thousand, because when you think about what Dane Cook
selling out the Garden Sebastian menascalco Hey, ye.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
I sold out ten dimes. Why would you do that?
I think he sold ten nights out. I'm telling you
Didney playing like ten shows in the car since the
year two thousand. Conan O'Brien's style.
Speaker 4 (18:28):
There hasn't been There hasn't been an event of this
magnitude at the Garden because everything you think of, whether
it was a big fight night, all those although I
remember the last time was electric sports related lin Sanity,
lin Sanity, Yeah, because we lived it rich and I
we live in LA We're live from the barrios of
the West Side right now, but we're lyve in.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
The mean streets of LA.
Speaker 4 (18:51):
We're in the valley of Cherman oakshing mean about Cherman Oaks.
Everybody Koboco. So we live in LA now, but we're
from the East coast.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
And not even just a garden, just the city itself
was electric boogie yuggy yuggy when Insanity was going on.
That's how real it was, like it really was a
huge moment. May have been a passing fleeting two weeks
for you. You're like, yeah, I remember that. I mean,
those documentaries you've seen about Linsanity was real and the
(19:26):
Garden was rocking the way it should be when that happened.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
That was insane. I hate to say it. I'm sorry, Lindsaye.
Speaker 4 (19:34):
I hate to say it because you know, we are
New Yorkers, originally, you know, we're original New Yorkers.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
I mean, I'm to be technical.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
I'm a joysy boy in my golf feet out, but
here you grow up. New York's your backyard, your playground,
and where we worked. But I see you're you're a
Jersey guy. I'm actually a New Yorker.
Speaker 4 (19:55):
And I look at it and say, other than a
stand up comedy special and linsanity, maybe the debut of
Carmelo Anthony because he was like a hometown guy and
people loved him.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Agreeing with this guy.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
But Rich is right, he didn't really win with the Knicks, uh,
the way they wanted him to or we expected.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
But we were there for his debut and it was electric.
We were there.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
It was one of the few times we went to
a big game like that, and I remember everybody was
super pumped about it. So the nose bleeds Tonight, Seat Geeks,
stub Hub, all your sites.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
Eight hund though for like a you know, a high up,
but then again, it's a guarden. It's not that big.
But eight hundred bucks for what you would call the nosebleed.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
So yeah, that's take it.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Oh, I don't know, eight hundred for a nose bleed. Yeah,
I mean you gotta like run that one by the wife.
He maybe, maybe.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Honey, I'm gonna be sitting after you buy.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
It, of course, I'm sitting behind the Billy Joel sign
the rafters eight hundred. Your thoughts is tonight the biggest
event at the Garden in the twenty first century.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
I'm trying to think of something bigger than that, because again,
tonight is gonna be electric. It's going to be what
New York's supposed to be the world's most famous arena.
You have to factor in the fans tonight, the intimidation factor.
It's gonna be loud, home court advantage will be in
a fact, at least you hope.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
Stars will be you say intimidating fans. Are you talking
about the mean mug from Ben Stiller.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
I'm talking Timothy Shallow, a mean mug in the Celtics
tonight with his work boots on.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
So yeah, the stars will be out.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
You'll be watching, and if anything, I'd love to hear
from you. But if anything, if you don't have a
horse in the race, we gave you reason to watch tonight.
Speaker 4 (21:50):
You know what, Tim in Vermont, We'll start with him.
Tim biggest event, biggest event.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
At the garden.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
I don't know about the biggest events being this because
you guys thinking about the concert for nine to eleven
in the twenty first century, you communists, Uh you know.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
I remember I worked at I worked at Z one
hundred in New York at that time, and they had
jingle Ball three months after nine to eleven, and they
had FDN Y and NYPD walking around the garden.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
And you mean you were there and you forgot. I was.
I was ashamed, Yeah, but that was just more sentimental.
I was there. Rich introduced the Backstreet voice. It's possible
ladies and gentlemen. Well that makes some noise for Backstreet
No boy, it's from the Backstreet. Do you remember that song?
Backstreet Boy?
Speaker 4 (22:39):
I was saying, I don't know how quick you're on
the punch, But do you remember that song Superman by
five for fighting? Of course, by the way, five for
fighting got his name. That's the penalty and hockey five
minutes for fighting. That song played at Madison Square Garden
while FDN Y and NYPD walked around with candles.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Canch day.
Speaker 6 (22:59):
I was wondering where that voice coming from. I forgot
spots on a new part of the studio. Now he's
out of sight on the sad dissembodied voice coming.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Don't play the song let's spot singing spot. You remember
that there, don't I know? We have this library of music.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
With the cloud bat there. Thank you. I'm all.
Speaker 5 (23:19):
My god.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
I know it's a sentimental moment, but that song is misery.
But that was a sentimental moment. But biggest moment tonight,
Medson Square Guards related.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
Absolutely, let's go.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
All right, listen, we got more Kalen on Ritch coming
up for the great Dan Patrick. Now there's a hot story.
This is what do they say back in the day?
Hot off the presses. There's a Caleb Williams Chicago Bear
story that I feel like was so unnecessary, Like why
say anything Caleb than your dad?

Speaker 4 (26:19):
And it's always an honor to fill in for the
great Dan Patrick. And before we move on to Caleb Williams,
is a story that Yo, It's one of those just.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Like, why are you saying anything? Dude?
Speaker 4 (26:31):
There's a bear's Caleb Williams story. It involves his dad.
We're gonna talk some Dallas Cowboys and a little squabble
with Fox Fox Football. So that's in the news. Yankee
Sweat and Wan Soto lots to get to. But did
you think about it? Was there any event at Madison
Square Garden that could compete with the intensity of a
(26:53):
Game six where if you don't win, you got to
go to Boston on Monday?
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Like, is anything compared to this?
Speaker 1 (27:00):
No?
Speaker 3 (27:02):
In the twenty first century. No, No, it's been that
dead for so long. I mean again, we worked there.
We would look at it all the time. We even
did a TV show right in that area. We'd interview
people outside of the garden all the time. World's most
famous arena. And I remember thinking like, yeah, that's the
mecca mecallekaheimchaheine, Oh, that's the mecca of sports. Yeah, I mean,
and nothing's been going on here for years. It's not
(27:26):
that the Knicks didn't have fun teams and exciting, dynamic players,
because they did. But now they actually have a shot
and they're playing the Celtics tonight at home.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
They gotta win.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
Yeah, tonight is one of the biggest nights not only
at the Garden in years, but in New York sports
within the Yankees and Mets, two powerhouse teams going at it.
But to answer your question, rich, I think tonight's the
biggest night at the Garden in a long time.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Look, the last two times the Knicks made it this far,
those two times we were watching OJ and a car chase.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
That's how long it's been.
Speaker 4 (28:04):
And then the strike season they got, you know, whooped
by the Spurs in a season where they probably shouldn't
have been there anyway. So for New York Knicks fans
and East Coast basketball fans, you know how a lot
of times you hate to say it, but baseball's a
little better when the Yankees and Red Sox are good.
Football is a little better when the Cowboys are competitive,
because there's team's to love and hate. When basketball and
(28:25):
New York is good, it brings another layer to the
National Basketball Association, no dignity, and I think tonight you're
going to see a lot of stars out tickets.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Like I said, eight hundo for the Nosebleeds.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
Even the casual fan is going to watch and have
a little little case of the fomo and say, man,
I wish I was there. It looks fun tonight, so
I fun. Yeah, it's it's the place you want to
beat tonight. I don't know if I want to spend
eight hundred dollars for the weakest seat in the house,
but it's definitely the place you want to be.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
Let me ask you there, Steve.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
I don't start calling you Steve instead of Cavino because
the name Steve is back now because of Minecraft.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Steve Lama chickens tasty as hell. It's not an old
guy name anymore. Now it's coming back. Seeve, yay, Steve.
Speaker 4 (29:13):
Being that you and I are big Mets Yankees fans,
I'm a Mets guy, you're a Yankees guy. I'm almost
saying that the Mets Yankees gets my phone and the
knixt game gets the TV. Oh, that's a whole other question.
I mean, you don't need to think too hard about it.
I mean you're a diehard Yankees fan. You're the guy
that watches one hundred and sixty two games.
Speaker 3 (29:31):
I have a question for you, though, with all the
technological advances, right, what happened to picture and picture? What
happened to that like split screen option that your TV
would offer? I can't you do that anymore? That's sort
of like with all the apps, like you lost that integration.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
You know me during NFL season I got I roll
in no joke, Brie, I was you've been to my house?
Speaker 2 (29:53):
I roll in other TVs. Like I'm a sports bar
and I have TVs on wheels. I have TV's on wheels.
I like, you're the substitute teacher.
Speaker 4 (30:01):
Well you know why because you go to like Walmart
or Target and a fifty inch.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
TV's so cheap. Now they're so cheap. It's like I
bought for you. You have one hundred inch screen TV.
Why can't you split it?
Speaker 3 (30:12):
You can't have a split screen for a big night
like to is big TV screen of the week.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Can't you have to have two TVs. We were doing that,
you know, twenty years ago. Now we can't.
Speaker 4 (30:21):
I know what you're saying for Sunday ticket. You could
split it four ways, two ways. But you're right if
you want to watch the Knicks game and the Yankees,
all the advancements and technology, we lost this. Because now
you're right, I.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
Do have to resort to the believe it or not,
I'm doing the Knicks on the phone, which I know
is a bigger game in bigger stakes. But I'm such
a Yankees fan and I want them to beat Riches
met so bad.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
You want to see every fiber of my being. I
want to see it as big as possible.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
He wants to say, Juan Soto rip a line drive
down the right field line for a home run in
the first inning.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
No, I want to see big TV.
Speaker 3 (30:56):
I want to see these Jabroni's out tonight, these Batcha gloops,
these New York bone heads, these meat heads booing him
in full stereo, Sam on the big screen.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
I actually have three TVs in my apartment. I have
one fifty five and I have two thirty two inches
on the wall, so I have three wow three. Yes,
it's like a bree bar. You were rolling like that. Yeah,
big pain, you hear. We just set out cheap TVs though.
Speaker 3 (31:20):
They really are honestly, they're monitors nowadays. Yeah, they're just screens.
Speaker 2 (31:24):
I know.
Speaker 4 (31:24):
I think like a fifty five inch TV is like
two to three hundred dollars. So you buy a couple
of those, you wheel them out, put them to the
left and the right of the big screen, and you
do it that way. But Cavino's right, the problem is this.
The problem is you have three different apps going on precisely,
buddy boy, Like if I'm watching the Mets game tonight MLBtv,
if I'm watching the Knicks game, it's on Hulu for
(31:46):
me Hulu Live.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
So you're right, you can't do it that way.
Speaker 6 (31:49):
It's still not customizable, if that's even a word enough.
On YouTube TV, where like I could watch an Indian
A Fever game and like an NBA playoff game at
the same time, you can like mix and match NHL
with some NBA, but you can't get exactly what you
want yet.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
If you're like a YouTube TV.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
You've got your sweet MLB package and all your other
streaming services, but you lost your picture and picture I
was sam, have you ever A dreamed of Kaitlin clock,
won't you No, I've not had that. I am wearing
a Kale Clark shirt today.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
I know.
Speaker 4 (32:16):
I wonder if I was Sam, Like like he wakes
up in a hot sweat and he's like, oh, Caitlin.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
They are starting their season tomorrow, so I'll be tuning
in for that. Is she is she gonna take that
team next level this year.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
Or what I think? So it's good. They're definitely gonna
go up another level.
Speaker 6 (32:31):
But they're they're hosting the Chicago Sky so you got
Angelices coming to town.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
It's gonna be definitely definitely watching her on his big screen.
Yeah that sound creepy. It's weird.
Speaker 4 (32:41):
He watches the game in a pair of Iowa tidy whities.
How would you know? So, Hey, good luck tonight to
the Knicks and Celtics fans. Yankees fans not so much.
Let's go Mets now. There's a story in the NFL
that I want to get to next. And this story
is everything. If he asked me, really, you know what?
It know what it reminds me of Bear with me
(33:02):
a second. For all the sports I watch. I do
love some good trash TV. Not vander Pump Housewife, nonsense.
I enjoy exact one you're watching now, Smut Island.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
Stop it. I like the one I've got to watch,
Smutt Island. I like the ones, the munniest of all
the trash TV though that's too hot to handle.
Speaker 4 (33:21):
There's some of these reality shows now, these twenty somethings
are on islands and they're told like, you can't have sex,
and they're like, no, I like what.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
I've caught you. Yeah, They're like, it's been twenty four hours.
Speaker 4 (33:35):
You're on this island for three weeks, and you can
make start bugging out, like like five hours into it,
it's been five hours since I've had sex.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
Tell wry Chat. Hey, I'm Kyler. I like sex.
Speaker 4 (33:48):
I'm Jessica, I'm a boss bitch, and I love Kyler.
Speaker 3 (33:53):
Five hours later is like is freaking out because he
needs some action.
Speaker 4 (33:57):
So I do love a good trashy out of show.
My wife and I, you know, the kids go to sleep.
You pop one of those on for brainless TV. So
I'm gonna make an analogy here. Okay, Kyler Murray, Kyler Murray,
Why am I thinking of him? Because I said, Kyler
smart island, Like, why am I thinking Kyler Murray? He
has nothing to do with this.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
Hey, I'm Kyler. I love threesomes.
Speaker 4 (34:20):
Wait, and I'm on this island that I can't have sex.
Caleb Williams. I'm gonna compare him to Love is Blind
and you're gonna be like, how are you gonna.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
Do this, you idiot? And I'll tell you how well.
Speaker 3 (34:32):
If you're gonna do it, do it in the form
of Colin Cowhard because he has the best analogy. Stars
Star Stars, Stars Stars Stars.
Speaker 4 (34:44):
Colin Cowhard here uh, Kyler Jesus. Caleb Williams is sort
of like Love is Blind. On Love is Blind. They're
in these stupid pods and they try to fall in
love without seeing each other and without fail every season.
And some guys like Jessica, I think I love you,
(35:06):
I don't know if I love you Brack then all right,
fun and then he'll like go in another pot and
be like, I've always loved you, Tiffany, And then undeniably
that girl will find out wait, I wasn't your first choice,
And then there's the lemma of do you want to
know the backstory? Do you want to know I wasn't
your first choice.
Speaker 3 (35:28):
Are any of us listening and hanging out here are
significant other's first choice?
Speaker 2 (35:32):
But probably not. I'd like to think so. I don't
doubt it. It just ended up that way.
Speaker 4 (35:38):
I think that if you connect with someone, it's like, wow,
I found you.
Speaker 3 (35:42):
I mean, dude, you can pat yourself on the back
like you're Barry Horwitz all day. You really think that
their first choice, my first choice? Millions and millions of
people on this Earth. Rich was the first choice. Yeah,
I mean it's I can't say it's impossible, but I'm
not gonna say I think I was her first choice always.
(36:03):
I think there's plenty of matches for everyone on planet Earth.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
But I'm just saying, do you want to know?
Speaker 4 (36:09):
Like, Bri, if you were dating some dude and you
found out like he was talking to you and some
other girl and he was like, you know, Vanessa, I
love you, and she's like, I don't like you, and
then he goes Then he goes, hey, Brie, you want
to date?
Speaker 2 (36:24):
Like, do you want to know that? I don't want
to know because I feel like that you're just settling
for me. I'm not like second play.
Speaker 3 (36:29):
You always say, yeah, don't be a pilgrim because you're
not a settler. Yeah, do you have buckles on your shoes?
Don't be a pilgrim. Yeah, don't be a settler, don't settle. So,
but here's what I think. I think, you know, where
everybody's choice, but it's not a guarantee that we were
the first choice.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
So, yeah, did my girlfriend choose me? Yeah? Was I
the first guy she chose? Probably not. I was just
good enough, And yeah I choose this guy. He's okay.
Speaker 4 (36:55):
Well with that thought, I'm gonna get into the details
next of this Caleb Williams story and his dad and
what they thought about the Chicago Bears and the organization
and everything before Draft Day a year ago. We'll get
to that next Right here on Fox Sports Radio, your

Covino and Rich.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
You know when you go on a date, and you know,
a lot of times if you're treating a woman, you
don't she doesn't want to order the most expensive thing
because she's trying to be nice.
Speaker 2 (38:30):
Man, you date those nice girls. Huh? Good for you, man, Well.
Speaker 4 (38:33):
That's right, you went on a date once with that
when you were first single. Yeah, after you're divorced. That
one girl was ordering the highest end alcohol.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
All top shelf stuff.
Speaker 3 (38:43):
It's like she swindled me at my bill was like
six hundred dollars on like top shelf drinks.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
That was just drinks before dinner.
Speaker 4 (38:51):
Brie is the opposite because this morning I said coffee
on me, and she goes, I'll have a tall?
Speaker 2 (38:55):
Who orders a tall at Starbucks? That was like that
was like the I was in press. She said, talk
because I always say small. Anyway. You think you're the
guy that won't say it.
Speaker 3 (39:03):
Huh, I won't do it, I said, I really won't.
It's not an act because I'm still confused a little bit.
Speaker 2 (39:08):
You're a medium. Do you mean Grande Sert? Nope? Medium,
I'm good.
Speaker 4 (39:13):
He's that guy Steve Cavino. All right, Hey, a lot
to get to today. Filling it for Dan Patrick. But
back to the Chicago bear story. Nothing's hotter. This is
the story Seth Wickerham story. Is that what this is?
Speaker 2 (39:24):
Yep?
Speaker 3 (39:25):
It's about Kayleb Williams and his dad wickers I say,
Wickerham Wickersham, Okay.
Speaker 2 (39:30):
I just want to make sure you're joking.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
Yeah, funny goo Wickerham, Bam wicker wicker Ham of lam
Dingda Wickersham. So Kayleb Williams and his dad. It's about
do you really want to know the backstory to anything?
Speaker 2 (39:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (39:42):
Like, yeah, the reason, uh, you know, the reason Cavino
and Retch you're filling for Dan Patrick is because well,
someone else didn't want to be here. Oh that doesn't
make me feel good, right. You want to believe that
you were the first choice.
Speaker 4 (39:55):
Of course, you want to think that you're loved in
a relationship. You don't want to find out that, you know,
your your wife was in love with some dude and
he's like, I don't want to marry you, and she's like, all.
Speaker 2 (40:06):
Right, I guess I'll date you like that. You don't
want to know that.
Speaker 3 (40:09):
You don't want to know that, But it's okay to
assume that. Sometimes that's just life. It doesn't take away
from where you're at right now. Things work out and
you're the star best. But it's an old saying rich
that we've had for years. For me, I've always lived
by it, and I find it to be true. Oh wait,
it's not cheating if you keep your socks on. Not
that what other sayings does Kavina live by. If there's
(40:32):
no ring on your finger, your junk could linger.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
That's a good one. But no, no, what is the other?
Less history, more mystery.
Speaker 3 (40:41):
Now, I'm not saying you turn a blind eye to
the career criminal you're in bed with, right, and you
know this person used to be a lady of the night.
I'm not saying that lady. Yeah, she's a big time floozy,
so you shouldn't care. I think your past does matter,
but like they're dating history and who they were with
(41:01):
and everything that led you to this point. I don't
think all of it's important. I don't think you need
to know everything.
Speaker 2 (41:08):
Well, think of it.
Speaker 4 (41:08):
If you're a big Hollywood star and you make it
because you're the star of a big movie, do you
want to know that the casting process picked someone else
and they were like, yeah, it's not going to work out,
so they went with you. How many times does that happen?
Like someone gets their breakout role. We wanted Tom Cruise,
but he didn't do it, so we gave it to you.
(41:29):
And there's a story out of Chicago. You said that
Wickersham article where Kayleb Williams dad Carl Carl Williams said
Chicago is the place quarterbacks go to die. Uh, Kayleb
Williams had wondered, too confidence.
Speaker 2 (41:47):
Do I want to go there? I don't think I
could do it.
Speaker 4 (41:50):
In fact, at one point he said, I don't want
to blow up that city, but I might go to
the UFL. I want to play somewhere else Chicago where
people go to die in the NFL. And you know,
is it okay now because he's there and he's turning
the franchise around or should he not have said this?
Speaker 3 (42:08):
We're going to go over more quotes from that story.
Plus we're giving away prizes, no diggity, no doubt. Hey Friday,
CNR in for the great Dan Patrick.
Speaker 2 (42:16):
Right here are Fox Sports RADW Yeah, buddy,
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
Ooh ooh, ooh, it's us, it really is.
Speaker 3 (00:09):
And not only that, Look at those dance moves from
Iowa Sam.
Speaker 2 (00:14):
He's up and at him. Look at that guy. It's
too early for that. How does he have the energy.
Speaker 4 (00:19):
To put a perspective for people that don't know Fox
Sports Radio employee Iowa Sam, who's all over the place
running the board today. He has the mannerisms of a
young Conan O'Brien, Yes, yes, which is great, and the
looks of a young Will Ferrell or something.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
I don't know what's going on. That's high compliments.
Speaker 3 (00:37):
Yeah, he's got an afro going on. I can tell
you that. And I love him. And my favorite story
about Iowa Sam, who's playing the xylophone so masterfully so
early in the morning dancing, is that he recently told
us his confirmation name, which is sort of like his
middle name he goes.
Speaker 2 (00:52):
By, is Javier Javier. There he is. That's the best.
Javier Sam so much. You don't know about me again, Gino,
that is rich. We're in for the great Dan Patrick.
Always a pleasure. And Bri is on the phones, what's up?
Were you holding it down? It's great, see Brie, what
if the light? I know?
Speaker 3 (01:11):
I mean, we love our producer Danny G. You all,
but Bri, you don't smell like boloney and coffee.
Speaker 2 (01:18):
Just kidding.
Speaker 3 (01:19):
Plus Danny G's like you, I smell fantastic and he

was on their team for one year.
Speaker 2 (02:04):
Get off of Juan Sotos wavos.
Speaker 3 (02:06):
Everybody needs something to rally around, and he's the target.
Tonight gonna be an action pack day for New York.
Of course, the Knicks play tonight. But speaking of basketball,
I hope you had a Denver Nuggets sort of night,
a Jokis sort of night.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Looks like they're back in action.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
Got the thunder up against the wall now, So I
hope you're enjoying some great basketball. We got some great
baseball going on this weekend. Super pump, that is Friday.
Super pumped to be here in for Dan Patrick. Now
while you're still in your car and on your way
to work or whatever on this glorious Friday. Remember we're
on Monday through Friday anyway all the time nation wide,
(02:48):
like the warehouse. We're nationwide two to four on the West,
five to seven on the East, Monday through Friday. But
when they say hey, DP needs you, we're here. Always
fun to hang out with you guys.
Speaker 4 (02:59):
Now, we got to talk about what's going on tonight
because I think, I think forget that. Hell, I know,
tonight is the biggest event that's happening at Madison Square
Garden in the twenty first century. I know you might
think that sounds crazy, but I'll explain a second. But
before we get into Nick Celtics tonight, which is a
big deal, big story, I gotta ask you like the
(03:21):
most immature, dumb question please, And it's A fun question
because I was talking about this with one of the
dads for my kid's little league team yesterday. If you
were watching the Thunder and the Nuggies, Jamal Murray going
off twenty five points and he was sick, not feeling well.
You know, sometimes big game players come up in big spots,
(03:43):
especially when they're not feeling so hot.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
Right, kind of how I feel today. It's a big day.
Speaker 3 (03:48):
We're filling in and I feel a little out of it,
you know what. Not because I'm sick because I stuffed
my face yesterday. So I'm like, oh, man, you meet
them all, yeah, over and and waking up so early
my bathroom schedules off, So I'm really like, oh, don't
tell us that, but yeah, man, oh, I ate so
(04:08):
much like a slob yesterday that I'm not feeling that
great right now, I have the same thing, right.
Speaker 4 (04:13):
A relatively immature question for you, but listen, when you
play at an NBA level, a Major League Baseball level,
at NFL level, you're always trying to get the edge, right,
like everyone, that's a big thing in sports.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
You're trying to get the edge, any advantage right, Right.
Speaker 4 (04:30):
You've heard there's players who got stinkys in the NFL
because they you know, they want people to get away
from me.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Yeah, any advantage, any edge. So competitive, the most competitive
people on the planet.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
So if you're a.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
Sick Jamal Murray, do you breathe a little bit on
SGA like maybe thinking like if I have a little
twenty four scores like the Last of Us? Yea, like
the Last of Us.
Speaker 2 (05:00):
If you watch The Last of Us.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
I'm just picturing those deadly green spores when she's in
that elevator bank.
Speaker 3 (05:05):
You know, it is a really dumb question. I'm glad
you prefaced it, but I wouldn't put it past them. Dude,
if the ninetest level, we're talking of the most competitive
people on earth, and I wouldn't be surprised that it
happens in regular life because some people are just that competitive.
Like if Jonas was like, I really want to bring
down CNR. I hate those guys. You know, you'd be
(05:27):
rubbing his germs all over the microphones. I don't know
how that works, you know, but we love.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
Jonas and we love everybody here luckily, but.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
You never know, Yeah, find out he rubbed his cheeks
on your mic People are vengeful didn't Mike runs his place.
They'd like, never leave your tooth brush around people you
don't know, or something weird like that, who runs place?
Speaker 2 (05:45):
My point, My point is simple.
Speaker 4 (05:49):
It might soundly mature, but when one of us are sick,
you or our video guy spots the first book, Oh.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
Don't breathe on me, cor I mean COVID change the game. Yeah, well,
I'm saying I hate to bring up that dirty word
that ruined four years of our life.
Speaker 4 (06:07):
I think that if regular people are eye rolling about,
like stay away, don't come to work, if you're feeling
sick and you have a game seven and forty eight hours,
you don't think it's a wild thought to be like,
maybe I'll breathe a little extra on SGA. If I
have a twenty four to forty eight hour little thing going.
Speaker 2 (06:27):
On, maybe I'll give it to them.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
If I was a betting man, and I'm not really,
I'm just more of a cheap skate. I like the action.
I would say no one had this conversation at all.
That's my guess because I think of these that I
put it past people in history and in the past,
and hasn't been done before. As your favorite group the
(06:48):
bear naked lady said, Rich, it's all been done. I'm
sure it has been done before.
Speaker 2 (06:52):
It's all man, and.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
I'm sure it's been done in real life like sabotage.
You think you think these guys are above sabotage. I
mean people are trying. Listening to y'all people's sabotage.
Speaker 4 (07:03):
People are in the middle of a you know, a
pylon in the NFL, and they're you know, grabbing junk
and punching guys, and you know.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
I doubt this happened, but the thought is not as
outrageous and goofy as you think. I bet it's happened before,
because people are are looking for that edge like you
described and sabotaged and want to take people down. And
it might be someone at the office, might be someone
at the warehouse, might be someone at the oil patch
wherever you are, and you're trying to get ahead of
(07:31):
that guy, the sales dude. You might have done something
sneaky and creepy actually to bring him down. And when
you're this competitive, I don't think it's impossible, Rich.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
It's it's probable that it happened, isn't it.
Speaker 4 (07:45):
The plotlight of every dumb comedy, like the bad guy
tries to get in the way of the good guy,
like oh, he's stuck in traffic, or oh, don't let
him get to the conference. I'm just saying, it's not
want to drink. There's not something crazy. It's not a
wild thought. But hey, last night.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
Do you think that anybody to piggyback your dumb thought here?
Do you think anybody on the flip side is like
I wish he wasn't playing because their health is a concern,
or we passed that kind of like the Jordan flu game.
No one was really like Jordan's stay away. I'm just
saying yesterday was a biggie. We talked about it.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
I'm never the guy that's like told yoursel But okayse
was favored by six yesterday, and I remember saying, like,
not so fast. This game is in Denver. I know, OKC.
Yesterday in Vegas they were still the odds on favorite
to win the NBA title.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
I don't know what that looks like today. I know.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
The Knicks and the Tea Wolves are but were both
plus six hundred. But yesterday they had okay see at
minus one forty. I think when you go to a
game seven. Those odds have been adjusted. But forget that series.
Let's go to New York City tonight.
Speaker 2 (08:55):
Oh you know who.
Speaker 3 (08:56):
I wouldn't put this past, by the way, to wrap
up your previous thought, Rudy Gobert, because I think he's
yet to get everybody with his germs.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
Yeah, he is the guy that spread COVID if you remember,
that's true.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
Hey, Brie, I was saying, but my crazy is I mean,
you can look me in the eyes and say it's
a dumb thought, but you don't think players are trying
to get the edge.
Speaker 6 (09:13):
It is, but it's not impossible. It seems like too
much biomedical. Like you get the timing of it. You
know it's not gonna play out the way you want.
Probably you're like, I'm gonna cough on this guy in
game one. In my game three, he'll be ill and
he'll be missing the game.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
You've heard times where it's like, yeah, the clubhouse, like
half the team's you know, not feeling well. You've heard
that in sports, like something goes through the locker room
or clubhouse.
Speaker 2 (09:37):
I heard that, Bree.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
You wanted to produce our show for Dan Patrick on
this main stage show she's the one that got Danny
g sick today on purpose, and they started like two
days ago. Yeah, she set them up for it. It's
not impossible, it's improbable. So funny thought, though, because people
are willing to take all sorts of risks for that edge.
Speaker 2 (09:59):
No doubt.
Speaker 4 (09:59):
It's so let's go to tonight Madison Square Garden. The
Knicks cannot under any circumstances. Let this series go back
to Boston for a Game seven. And I can only
compare it to you know, I'm a Mets fan from
New York, but I'm gonna go back to when I
was a little boy, when I was my kid's age,
when when I was for the record, he's just a
(10:21):
man boy right now.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
Now I'm a man boy. Now he's a grown man boy.
Speaker 4 (10:25):
My daughter often asked me, Dad, when was the last
time the Mets won the championship? And I reluctantly say,
you know, your little brother who's five six years old.
When I was his age, that's when the Mets won
nineteen eighty six.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
I was in kindergarten.
Speaker 4 (10:42):
But I do remember, just from the highlights and knowledge,
the Mets were playing the Astros in the NLCS, and
that was the year Mike Scott was untouchable. This is
the uh it Kevin bast On that squad was on
that squad, Oh do you remember? There were specula he
knows Mike Scott scuffing the ball like he's unhittable.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
I do.
Speaker 4 (11:04):
The Mets were gonna have to face him in game seven.
Squad for yeah, that was a big squad man. That
Astros team was good, but they were gonna have to
face Mike Scott in a Game seven. So when they
were in extra innings in Game six, there was a
pressure of like, yo, you got to win now, Mets,
(11:24):
because if you face Mike Scott in Game seven, I
don't know if you could beat him. And I feel
that way tonight about the New York Knicks. If you
want to take New York Sports out. My buddy's already
reached out to me.
Speaker 3 (11:35):
Got a few East Coast friends out here in LA
and I'm like, dude, what are we doing for the
game tonight. I'm like, well, I'm waking up earlier for
Dan Patrick, so I might be taking a nap later,
but yeah, we gotta get together. Got to do something.
So much on the line might be the biggest night
in a long time for New York sports with the Yankees,
Mets going on tonight, and of course the Knicks. But Rich,
(11:56):
I think what brings the Celtics closer together, why they're
so scary, is because they don't They don't have Jason Tatum,
and I feel that forces everybody to step up and
play harder, and they have a chip on their shoulder
as a result. I'll give you a work analogy. Let's
say it's the Covino and Rich Show. We've been doing
(12:19):
this forever, Cavino and Rich here on Fox Sports Radio
for plus years, right, but we've been working together. If
Rich out of nowhere is a Cavino, I can't make it.
It's not that there's extra pressure on me, but I know,
deep down, subconsciously, well Rich isn't here.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Now I really got to bring it. You're making down
for you're making up for something lost.
Speaker 3 (12:42):
I'm trying to overcompensate because Rich isn't here, So you
know what, I'm doing extra effort. Man, I'm really going
to bring it today. You know, I'm also subconsciously going
to say I'm a show everybody. I don't need this guy.
What yeah, I mean subconsciously, Bro, Yeah, yeah, I'm not
like walking around telling everybody but I don't need this guy,
and I want everybody to know a manu full of
great energy.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
And look out, Celtics, it's the Coveno Show.
Speaker 2 (13:07):
I mean, but Rich will be back tomorrow.
Speaker 3 (13:09):
But seriously, subconsciously, all these things are going on and
you're putting extra effort into that to show that the
whole team and the whole process doesn't revolve around one guy.
And I think they band together just to prove that, Like, yo,
it's not just the Jason Tatum show. We're great. We're
great with him, but we're great without him too. We're
(13:30):
gonna show that. That's why you don't want to take
any chances. That's why the Knicks have to stomp on
them tonight, because you're right.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
Then it does get a little scared.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
Well to quote your hero as a child mc hammer
gaining momentum.
Speaker 2 (13:43):
You don't want anyone. He also said, look at my eyes, man,
you can't touch this.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
I think if you go back to Boston, your toast,
I just can't see how you're right with the with
the Tatum stuff going back to Boston.
Speaker 2 (13:59):
You gotta finish this.
Speaker 4 (14:00):
Tonight, which is why I think it's the most important
home game and the most important event at Madison Square Garden.
But trust me, there's another theory here in the twenty
first century. Here's I agree. I hate agreeing with you.
What's the other answer going to be? Billy Joel's the show.
I'm a big Billy Joel fan. What the circus Wringling
Brothers when it comes to town?
Speaker 3 (14:19):
Yeah, when Gunther Gable Williams was teaming tigers and Lions,
there's no big fights at the Garden like there were
when our parents were younger.
Speaker 4 (14:28):
The Rangers haven't won a Stanley Cup since nineteen ninety four,
and before that, I remember nineteen forty.
Speaker 3 (14:34):
So tonight we're reminded why it's the world's most famous arena,
no diggity, no doubt. The last big event there was
the dice Man selling out.
Speaker 4 (14:42):
I mean, maybe like a big East tournament Yukon or
Q's back in the day did something. But I'm talking
about the mecca. Madison Square Garden is tonight the biggest game. Yes,
since the year two thousand.
Speaker 2 (14:58):
Can you hit that? I know, since the year two thousand. Man,
you did that so early. Thank you sir, thank you
bringing that conan energy.
Speaker 3 (15:12):
Iowa Sam on the ones and twos again, Breeze on
the phones eight seven seven ninety nine.
Speaker 2 (15:16):
Ohs, Fox, don't be scared.
Speaker 3 (15:17):
Hit us up and let's chop it up, especially when
we're giving away prizes. But Rich, there's another theory as
to why you don't want to go back to Boston.
And let's not forget the New York Boston rivalry as
a city, forget about the team just as a city.
It's so big and so fun. I call it the
duel for Johnny theory. Although the team wants to step
(15:40):
up minus Tatum, they also want to like rally around
this something to rally around is scary, And I called
the duel for Johnny theory from the movie The Outsiders.
You know they were rumbling, they were ready to win.
And when they're doing it for someone else, I think
that's when people play big. And I know that sounds corny,
(16:02):
but people get together and like, nah, man.
Speaker 2 (16:04):
We got you. They're telling Tatum, we got you. We're
gonna do it for Jason, do it for Johnny.
Speaker 3 (16:09):
When you throw more factors into the mix like that,
you really see people step up in different ways. It's
also to tie it to sports, the Brett Favre theory
where he had his biggest game on his toughest night
because he was doing it for his dad who passed away.
Now I'm not saying, you know, Tatum's never coming back,
but it's reason to play, for reason to rally around.
(16:30):
I don't think you want to let another team who
has all this going for them, this bonding moment.
Speaker 2 (16:37):
You don't want to let them gain momentum, like you said.
Speaker 4 (16:39):
So that nade Me said Brett favv Yeah, use it
a couple more times because in four days, far far,
far far, Because saying in four days.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
The world is gonna hate him, fly that documentary. I
mean a lot of people hate him on res.
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
I think everyone's gonna hate him in four days. There's
a documentary coming out on Netflix and it points out
everything that makes this guy awful. You bring up people,
rallying around people. I think you don't want to admit it.
Speaker 4 (17:04):
As a Yankees fan, it's gonna be tough for you
guys to win the World Series this year without Gert Cole.
Speaker 2 (17:11):
However, if you go back a couple.
Speaker 4 (17:13):
Of years in twenty twenty one, the Atlanta Braves won
the World Series despite Ronald Acunya Junior being hurt at
a pivotal point in missing the season.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
Sometimes losing a key player actually makes the team better.
It sounds crazy and ridiculous, but losing Jan Soto, for example,
really did make the Yankees lineup better, forced them to
make other moves.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
Other players had to step up.
Speaker 3 (17:39):
You're a more well rounded team as opposed to relying
on one player or expecting one player to bring it.
So if the Celtics are able to rally around this, yeah,
they're a dangerous squad still and you're seeing it. So
it puts that much pressure on what the Knicks have
to do, which is win at home. And it brings
(18:01):
again the question up, is this the biggest night at
the Garden in the twenty first century?
Speaker 2 (18:06):
That's really the year.
Speaker 4 (18:07):
Two thousand, because when you think about what Dane Cook
selling out the Garden Sebastian menascalco Hey, ye.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
I sold out ten dimes. Why would you do that?
I think he sold ten nights out. I'm telling you
Didney playing like ten shows in the car since the
year two thousand. Conan O'Brien's style.
Speaker 4 (18:28):
There hasn't been There hasn't been an event of this
magnitude at the Garden because everything you think of, whether
it was a big fight night, all those although I
remember the last time was electric sports related lin Sanity,
lin Sanity, Yeah, because we lived it rich and I
we live in LA We're live from the barrios of
the West Side right now, but we're lyve in.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
The mean streets of LA.
Speaker 4 (18:51):
We're in the valley of Cherman oakshing mean about Cherman Oaks.
Everybody Koboco. So we live in LA now, but we're
from the East coast.
Speaker 3 (19:04):
And not even just a garden, just the city itself
was electric boogie yuggy yuggy when Insanity was going on.
That's how real it was, like it really was a
huge moment. May have been a passing fleeting two weeks
for you. You're like, yeah, I remember that. I mean,
those documentaries you've seen about Linsanity was real and the
(19:26):
Garden was rocking the way it should be when that happened.
Speaker 2 (19:30):
That was insane. I hate to say it. I'm sorry, Lindsaye.
Speaker 4 (19:34):
I hate to say it because you know, we are
New Yorkers, originally, you know, we're original New Yorkers.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
I mean, I'm to be technical.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
I'm a joysy boy in my golf feet out, but
here you grow up. New York's your backyard, your playground,
and where we worked. But I see you're you're a
Jersey guy. I'm actually a New Yorker.
Speaker 4 (19:55):
And I look at it and say, other than a
stand up comedy special and linsanity, maybe the debut of
Carmelo Anthony because he was like a hometown guy and
people loved him.
Speaker 2 (20:08):
Agreeing with this guy.
Speaker 3 (20:09):
But Rich is right, he didn't really win with the Knicks, uh,
the way they wanted him to or we expected.
Speaker 2 (20:16):
But we were there for his debut and it was electric.
We were there.
Speaker 3 (20:21):
It was one of the few times we went to
a big game like that, and I remember everybody was
super pumped about it. So the nose bleeds Tonight, Seat Geeks,
stub Hub, all your sites.
Speaker 4 (20:33):
Eight hund though for like a you know, a high up,
but then again, it's a guarden. It's not that big.
But eight hundred bucks for what you would call the nosebleed.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
So yeah, that's take it.
Speaker 3 (20:46):
Oh, I don't know, eight hundred for a nose bleed. Yeah,
I mean you gotta like run that one by the wife.
He maybe, maybe.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Honey, I'm gonna be sitting after you buy.
Speaker 4 (20:56):
It, of course, I'm sitting behind the Billy Joel sign
the rafters eight hundred. Your thoughts is tonight the biggest
event at the Garden in the twenty first century.
Speaker 3 (21:08):
I'm trying to think of something bigger than that, because again,
tonight is gonna be electric. It's going to be what
New York's supposed to be the world's most famous arena.
You have to factor in the fans tonight, the intimidation factor.
It's gonna be loud, home court advantage will be in
a fact, at least you hope.
Speaker 4 (21:28):
Stars will be you say intimidating fans. Are you talking
about the mean mug from Ben Stiller.
Speaker 3 (21:33):
I'm talking Timothy Shallow, a mean mug in the Celtics
tonight with his work boots on.
Speaker 2 (21:39):
So yeah, the stars will be out.
Speaker 3 (21:41):
You'll be watching, and if anything, I'd love to hear
from you. But if anything, if you don't have a
horse in the race, we gave you reason to watch tonight.
Speaker 4 (21:50):
You know what, Tim in Vermont, We'll start with him.
Tim biggest event, biggest event.
Speaker 2 (21:57):
At the garden.
Speaker 1 (22:00):
I don't know about the biggest events being this because
you guys thinking about the concert for nine to eleven
in the twenty first century, you communists, Uh you know.
Speaker 4 (22:09):
I remember I worked at I worked at Z one
hundred in New York at that time, and they had
jingle Ball three months after nine to eleven, and they
had FDN Y and NYPD walking around the garden.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
And you mean you were there and you forgot. I was.
I was ashamed, Yeah, but that was just more sentimental.
I was there. Rich introduced the Backstreet voice. It's possible
ladies and gentlemen. Well that makes some noise for Backstreet
No boy, it's from the Backstreet. Do you remember that song?
Backstreet Boy?
Speaker 4 (22:39):
I was saying, I don't know how quick you're on
the punch, But do you remember that song Superman by
five for fighting? Of course, by the way, five for
fighting got his name. That's the penalty and hockey five
minutes for fighting. That song played at Madison Square Garden
while FDN Y and NYPD walked around with candles.
Speaker 1 (22:58):
Canch day.
Speaker 6 (22:59):
I was wondering where that voice coming from. I forgot
spots on a new part of the studio. Now he's
out of sight on the sad dissembodied voice coming.
Speaker 3 (23:05):
Don't play the song let's spot singing spot. You remember
that there, don't I know? We have this library of music.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
With the cloud bat there. Thank you. I'm all.
Speaker 5 (23:19):
My god.
Speaker 3 (23:20):
I know it's a sentimental moment, but that song is misery.
But that was a sentimental moment. But biggest moment tonight,
Medson Square Guards related.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
Absolutely, let's go.
Speaker 4 (23:29):
All right, listen, we got more Kalen on Ritch coming
up for the great Dan Patrick. Now there's a hot story.
This is what do they say back in the day?
Hot off the presses. There's a Caleb Williams Chicago Bear
story that I feel like was so unnecessary, Like why
say anything Caleb than your dad?
Speaker 3 (23:47):
But oh you said hot. I thought we were talking
Sam Hartman next. But we'll get to him later.

Covino on Rich, Hey, welcome. We appreciate it.
Speaker 4 (26:19):
And it's always an honor to fill in for the
great Dan Patrick. And before we move on to Caleb Williams,
is a story that Yo, It's one of those just.
Speaker 2 (26:29):
Like, why are you saying anything? Dude?
Speaker 4 (26:31):
There's a bear's Caleb Williams story. It involves his dad.
We're gonna talk some Dallas Cowboys and a little squabble
with Fox Fox Football. So that's in the news. Yankee
Sweat and Wan Soto lots to get to. But did
you think about it? Was there any event at Madison
Square Garden that could compete with the intensity of a
(26:53):
Game six where if you don't win, you got to
go to Boston on Monday?
Speaker 2 (26:57):
Like, is anything compared to this?
Speaker 1 (27:00):
No?
Speaker 3 (27:02):
In the twenty first century. No, No, it's been that
dead for so long. I mean again, we worked there.
We would look at it all the time. We even
did a TV show right in that area. We'd interview
people outside of the garden all the time. World's most
famous arena. And I remember thinking like, yeah, that's the
mecca mecallekaheimchaheine, Oh, that's the mecca of sports. Yeah, I mean,
and nothing's been going on here for years. It's not
(27:26):
that the Knicks didn't have fun teams and exciting, dynamic players,
because they did. But now they actually have a shot
and they're playing the Celtics tonight at home.
Speaker 2 (27:38):
They gotta win.
Speaker 3 (27:39):
Yeah, tonight is one of the biggest nights not only
at the Garden in years, but in New York sports
within the Yankees and Mets, two powerhouse teams going at it.
But to answer your question, rich, I think tonight's the
biggest night at the Garden in a long time.
Speaker 4 (27:54):
Look, the last two times the Knicks made it this far,
those two times we were watching OJ and a car chase.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
That's how long it's been.
Speaker 4 (28:04):
And then the strike season they got, you know, whooped
by the Spurs in a season where they probably shouldn't
have been there anyway. So for New York Knicks fans
and East Coast basketball fans, you know how a lot
of times you hate to say it, but baseball's a
little better when the Yankees and Red Sox are good.
Football is a little better when the Cowboys are competitive,
because there's team's to love and hate. When basketball and
(28:25):
New York is good, it brings another layer to the
National Basketball Association, no dignity, and I think tonight you're
going to see a lot of stars out tickets.
Speaker 2 (28:36):
Like I said, eight hundo for the Nosebleeds.
Speaker 3 (28:38):
Even the casual fan is going to watch and have
a little little case of the fomo and say, man,
I wish I was there. It looks fun tonight, so
I fun. Yeah, it's it's the place you want to
beat tonight. I don't know if I want to spend
eight hundred dollars for the weakest seat in the house,
but it's definitely the place you want to be.
Speaker 2 (28:57):
Let me ask you there, Steve.
Speaker 4 (28:59):
I don't start calling you Steve instead of Cavino because
the name Steve is back now because of Minecraft.
Speaker 3 (29:05):
Steve Lama chickens tasty as hell. It's not an old
guy name anymore. Now it's coming back. Seeve, yay, Steve.
Speaker 4 (29:13):
Being that you and I are big Mets Yankees fans,
I'm a Mets guy, you're a Yankees guy. I'm almost
saying that the Mets Yankees gets my phone and the
knixt game gets the TV. Oh, that's a whole other question.
I mean, you don't need to think too hard about it.
I mean you're a diehard Yankees fan. You're the guy
that watches one hundred and sixty two games.
Speaker 3 (29:31):
I have a question for you, though, with all the
technological advances, right, what happened to picture and picture? What
happened to that like split screen option that your TV
would offer? I can't you do that anymore? That's sort
of like with all the apps, like you lost that integration.
Speaker 4 (29:46):
You know me during NFL season I got I roll
in no joke, Brie, I was you've been to my house?
Speaker 2 (29:53):
I roll in other TVs. Like I'm a sports bar
and I have TVs on wheels. I have TV's on wheels.
I like, you're the substitute teacher.
Speaker 4 (30:01):
Well you know why because you go to like Walmart
or Target and a fifty inch.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
TV's so cheap. Now they're so cheap. It's like I
bought for you. You have one hundred inch screen TV.
Why can't you split it?
Speaker 3 (30:12):
You can't have a split screen for a big night
like to is big TV screen of the week.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Can't you have to have two TVs. We were doing that,
you know, twenty years ago. Now we can't.
Speaker 4 (30:21):
I know what you're saying for Sunday ticket. You could
split it four ways, two ways. But you're right if
you want to watch the Knicks game and the Yankees,
all the advancements and technology, we lost this. Because now
you're right, I.
Speaker 3 (30:32):
Do have to resort to the believe it or not,
I'm doing the Knicks on the phone, which I know
is a bigger game in bigger stakes. But I'm such
a Yankees fan and I want them to beat Riches
met so bad.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
You want to see every fiber of my being. I
want to see it as big as possible.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
He wants to say, Juan Soto rip a line drive
down the right field line for a home run in
the first inning.
Speaker 2 (30:54):
No, I want to see big TV.
Speaker 3 (30:56):
I want to see these Jabroni's out tonight, these Batcha gloops,
these New York bone heads, these meat heads booing him
in full stereo, Sam on the big screen.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
I actually have three TVs in my apartment. I have
one fifty five and I have two thirty two inches
on the wall, so I have three wow three. Yes,
it's like a bree bar. You were rolling like that. Yeah,
big pain, you hear. We just set out cheap TVs though.
Speaker 3 (31:20):
They really are honestly, they're monitors nowadays. Yeah, they're just screens.
Speaker 2 (31:24):
I know.
Speaker 4 (31:24):
I think like a fifty five inch TV is like
two to three hundred dollars. So you buy a couple
of those, you wheel them out, put them to the
left and the right of the big screen, and you
do it that way. But Cavino's right, the problem is this.
The problem is you have three different apps going on precisely,
buddy boy, Like if I'm watching the Mets game tonight MLBtv,
if I'm watching the Knicks game, it's on Hulu for
(31:46):
me Hulu Live.
Speaker 2 (31:47):
So you're right, you can't do it that way.
Speaker 6 (31:49):
It's still not customizable, if that's even a word enough.
On YouTube TV, where like I could watch an Indian
A Fever game and like an NBA playoff game at
the same time, you can like mix and match NHL
with some NBA, but you can't get exactly what you
want yet.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
If you're like a YouTube TV.
Speaker 3 (32:05):
You've got your sweet MLB package and all your other
streaming services, but you lost your picture and picture I
was sam, have you ever A dreamed of Kaitlin clock,
won't you No, I've not had that. I am wearing
a Kale Clark shirt today.
Speaker 2 (32:16):
I know.
Speaker 4 (32:16):
I wonder if I was Sam, Like like he wakes
up in a hot sweat and he's like, oh, Caitlin.
Speaker 3 (32:23):
They are starting their season tomorrow, so I'll be tuning
in for that. Is she is she gonna take that
team next level this year.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
Or what I think? So it's good. They're definitely gonna
go up another level.
Speaker 6 (32:31):
But they're they're hosting the Chicago Sky so you got
Angelices coming to town.
Speaker 2 (32:34):
It's gonna be definitely definitely watching her on his big screen.
Yeah that sound creepy. It's weird.
Speaker 4 (32:41):
He watches the game in a pair of Iowa tidy whities.
How would you know? So, Hey, good luck tonight to
the Knicks and Celtics fans. Yankees fans not so much.
Let's go Mets now. There's a story in the NFL
that I want to get to next. And this story
is everything. If he asked me, really, you know what?
It know what it reminds me of Bear with me
(33:02):
a second. For all the sports I watch. I do
love some good trash TV. Not vander Pump Housewife, nonsense.
I enjoy exact one you're watching now, Smut Island.
Speaker 2 (33:14):
Stop it. I like the one I've got to watch,
Smutt Island. I like the ones, the munniest of all
the trash TV though that's too hot to handle.
Speaker 4 (33:21):
There's some of these reality shows now, these twenty somethings
are on islands and they're told like, you can't have sex,
and they're like, no, I like what.
Speaker 2 (33:32):
I've caught you. Yeah, They're like, it's been twenty four hours.
Speaker 4 (33:35):
You're on this island for three weeks, and you can
make start bugging out, like like five hours into it,
it's been five hours since I've had sex.
Speaker 2 (33:45):
Tell wry Chat. Hey, I'm Kyler. I like sex.
Speaker 4 (33:48):
I'm Jessica, I'm a boss bitch, and I love Kyler.
Speaker 3 (33:53):
Five hours later is like is freaking out because he
needs some action.
Speaker 4 (33:57):
So I do love a good trashy out of show.
My wife and I, you know, the kids go to sleep.
You pop one of those on for brainless TV. So
I'm gonna make an analogy here. Okay, Kyler Murray, Kyler Murray,
Why am I thinking of him? Because I said, Kyler
smart island, Like, why am I thinking Kyler Murray? He
has nothing to do with this.
Speaker 2 (34:17):
Hey, I'm Kyler. I love threesomes.
Speaker 4 (34:20):
Wait, and I'm on this island that I can't have sex.
Caleb Williams. I'm gonna compare him to Love is Blind
and you're gonna be like, how are you gonna.
Speaker 2 (34:31):
Do this, you idiot? And I'll tell you how well.
Speaker 3 (34:32):
If you're gonna do it, do it in the form
of Colin Cowhard because he has the best analogy. Stars
Star Stars, Stars Stars Stars.
Speaker 4 (34:44):
Colin Cowhard here uh, Kyler Jesus. Caleb Williams is sort
of like Love is Blind. On Love is Blind. They're
in these stupid pods and they try to fall in
love without seeing each other and without fail every season.
And some guys like Jessica, I think I love you,
(35:06):
I don't know if I love you Brack then all right,
fun and then he'll like go in another pot and
be like, I've always loved you, Tiffany, And then undeniably
that girl will find out wait, I wasn't your first choice,
And then there's the lemma of do you want to
know the backstory? Do you want to know I wasn't
your first choice.
Speaker 3 (35:28):
Are any of us listening and hanging out here are
significant other's first choice?
Speaker 2 (35:32):
But probably not. I'd like to think so. I don't
doubt it. It just ended up that way.
Speaker 4 (35:38):
I think that if you connect with someone, it's like, wow,
I found you.
Speaker 3 (35:42):
I mean, dude, you can pat yourself on the back
like you're Barry Horwitz all day. You really think that
their first choice, my first choice? Millions and millions of
people on this Earth. Rich was the first choice. Yeah,
I mean it's I can't say it's impossible, but I'm
not gonna say I think I was her first choice always.
(36:03):
I think there's plenty of matches for everyone on planet Earth.
Speaker 2 (36:06):
But I'm just saying, do you want to know?
Speaker 4 (36:09):
Like, Bri, if you were dating some dude and you
found out like he was talking to you and some
other girl and he was like, you know, Vanessa, I
love you, and she's like, I don't like you, and
then he goes Then he goes, hey, Brie, you want
to date?
Speaker 2 (36:24):
Like, do you want to know that? I don't want
to know because I feel like that you're just settling
for me. I'm not like second play.
Speaker 3 (36:29):
You always say, yeah, don't be a pilgrim because you're
not a settler. Yeah, do you have buckles on your shoes?
Don't be a pilgrim. Yeah, don't be a settler, don't settle. So,
but here's what I think. I think, you know, where
everybody's choice, but it's not a guarantee that we were
the first choice.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
So, yeah, did my girlfriend choose me? Yeah? Was I
the first guy she chose? Probably not. I was just
good enough, And yeah I choose this guy. He's okay.
Speaker 4 (36:55):
Well with that thought, I'm gonna get into the details
next of this Caleb Williams story and his dad and
what they thought about the Chicago Bears and the organization
and everything before Draft Day a year ago. We'll get
to that next Right here on Fox Sports Radio, your

Covino and Rich.
Speaker 4 (38:19):
You know when you go on a date, and you know,
a lot of times if you're treating a woman, you
don't she doesn't want to order the most expensive thing
because she's trying to be nice.
Speaker 2 (38:30):
Man, you date those nice girls. Huh? Good for you, man, Well.
Speaker 4 (38:33):
That's right, you went on a date once with that
when you were first single. Yeah, after you're divorced. That
one girl was ordering the highest end alcohol.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
All top shelf stuff.
Speaker 3 (38:43):
It's like she swindled me at my bill was like
six hundred dollars on like top shelf drinks.
Speaker 2 (38:49):
That was just drinks before dinner.
Speaker 4 (38:51):
Brie is the opposite because this morning I said coffee
on me, and she goes, I'll have a tall?
Speaker 2 (38:55):
Who orders a tall at Starbucks? That was like that
was like the I was in press. She said, talk
because I always say small. Anyway. You think you're the
guy that won't say it.
Speaker 3 (39:03):
Huh, I won't do it, I said, I really won't.
It's not an act because I'm still confused a little bit.
Speaker 2 (39:08):
You're a medium. Do you mean Grande Sert? Nope? Medium,
I'm good.
Speaker 4 (39:13):
He's that guy Steve Cavino. All right, Hey, a lot
to get to today. Filling it for Dan Patrick. But
back to the Chicago bear story. Nothing's hotter. This is
the story Seth Wickerham story. Is that what this is?
Speaker 2 (39:24):
Yep?
Speaker 3 (39:25):
It's about Kayleb Williams and his dad wickers I say,
Wickerham Wickersham, Okay.
Speaker 2 (39:30):
I just want to make sure you're joking.
Speaker 3 (39:32):
Yeah, funny goo Wickerham, Bam wicker wicker Ham of lam
Dingda Wickersham. So Kayleb Williams and his dad. It's about
do you really want to know the backstory to anything?
Speaker 2 (39:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (39:42):
Like, yeah, the reason, uh, you know, the reason Cavino
and Retch you're filling for Dan Patrick is because well,
someone else didn't want to be here. Oh that doesn't
make me feel good, right. You want to believe that
you were the first choice.
Speaker 4 (39:55):
Of course, you want to think that you're loved in
a relationship. You don't want to find out that, you know,
your your wife was in love with some dude and
he's like, I don't want to marry you, and she's like, all.
Speaker 2 (40:06):
Right, I guess I'll date you like that. You don't
want to know that.
Speaker 3 (40:09):
You don't want to know that, But it's okay to
assume that. Sometimes that's just life. It doesn't take away
from where you're at right now. Things work out and
you're the star best. But it's an old saying rich
that we've had for years. For me, I've always lived
by it, and I find it to be true. Oh wait,
it's not cheating if you keep your socks on. Not
that what other sayings does Kavina live by. If there's
(40:32):
no ring on your finger, your junk could linger.
Speaker 2 (40:36):
That's a good one. But no, no, what is the other?
Less history, more mystery.
Speaker 3 (40:41):
Now, I'm not saying you turn a blind eye to
the career criminal you're in bed with, right, and you
know this person used to be a lady of the night.
I'm not saying that lady. Yeah, she's a big time floozy,
so you shouldn't care. I think your past does matter,
but like they're dating history and who they were with
(41:01):
and everything that led you to this point. I don't
think all of it's important. I don't think you need
to know everything.
Speaker 2 (41:08):
Well, think of it.
Speaker 4 (41:08):
If you're a big Hollywood star and you make it
because you're the star of a big movie, do you
want to know that the casting process picked someone else
and they were like, yeah, it's not going to work out,
so they went with you. How many times does that happen?
Like someone gets their breakout role. We wanted Tom Cruise,
but he didn't do it, so we gave it to you.
(41:29):
And there's a story out of Chicago. You said that
Wickersham article where Kayleb Williams dad Carl Carl Williams said
Chicago is the place quarterbacks go to die. Uh, Kayleb
Williams had wondered, too confidence.
Speaker 2 (41:47):
Do I want to go there? I don't think I
could do it.
Speaker 4 (41:50):
In fact, at one point he said, I don't want
to blow up that city, but I might go to
the UFL. I want to play somewhere else Chicago where
people go to die in the NFL. And you know,
is it okay now because he's there and he's turning
the franchise around or should he not have said this?
Speaker 3 (42:08):
We're going to go over more quotes from that story.
Plus we're giving away prizes, no diggity, no doubt. Hey Friday,
CNR in for the great Dan Patrick.
Speaker 2 (42:16):
