want to talk to any baseball right now. The Mets
are as awful as it gets, tied with your Yankees

(01:25):
in our Mets Yankees bet with forty games to go exactly,
they're tied equally awful and they're atrocious, like the hairline
of Scottie brocious. So good luck to your teams. We're

(02:08):
cn arm their football get you ready for the football season.
But it's our way of getting to know the WNBA
a little more well. Saying hi to Chipotle, Trying to
get some free discouncers. We are also less than three
weeks until the kickoff of the NFL season, so maybe
a little later. We discussed like, what's that random storyline
you're looking forward to that no one's really talking about,

(02:29):
Like what what is your vested interest? Like, everyone's of
course going to be watching Aaron Rodgers on the Steelers.
Everyone's curious about you know, it's a cam Warden, really
the most untalked about rookie in the last twenty five years.
So what is that storyline where you're like, no, no,
we got to think more about this. I'm asking on
the fly. Could it be about anything, like things that

(02:51):
are pretty good that not enough people talk about. I
think that's a fantastic question. Broadening up a little bit.
We'll get to that. We'll talk about something called do
you know this that sounds tasty? I don't know, so yeah, man,
stick around and find out. F around and find out.
We got Iowa Sam on the ones in two. You know,
if that's a new parenting style. You brought this to

(03:13):
my attention the other day. Everyone faffo, it's the return
of parents parenting tougher. F around and find out. Yeah,
it doesn't mean I'm gonna slap you upside your head,
like my daddy used to say, Hey, it's not that.
It means let them fail on their own. So if
like a kid's like, I'm not wearing a jacket, he's like,

(03:34):
all right, you don't want to bring a jacket, then
then hey, f around and find out. Then don't bring
a jacket. Don't be complaining to me, like that's a
great way of teaching them the lessons. I'll give you
a great f around, then find out a great faffo
as they call it fafo. In fact, I've changed my
name since reading this article and hearing about the trend,
Steve Foffo Covino. I thought it was Lafo. El faffo

(03:58):
is what they call me now, because especially when you copare,
it's very difficult. Ritchie, know what I did just to
prove that I walk the talk. School started this week
and I told my daughter all week, Look, if you
want to go to the mall, get those new pair
of shoes, buy a few fits the back to school drip.

(04:20):
You want to go shopping, you want to buy some
trapper keepers, a pencil box and a lunchbox.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
Whatever.

Speaker 1 (04:25):
Kids use today, trapper keeper. I might be ready by
one o'clock and yeah, we'll go. Not a problem. Dad
wants to do nice things for you. Yeah, dude, I
show up three hours later. And not only that, the
teenage attitude she gave me that day. She basically told

(04:46):
me to beat it was giving me all this lip
and side eye. You have no idea, like, well, some
of you might. She's a teenage girl. And I was like,
you know what, fuf foh. I was like, she's not ready.
She's talking to me like I'm nobody from Nowhereville, say
you know what not happening. I drove it right to
her mom's house. I was. It's like, Dad, I thought

(05:07):
we were going to the wall. You don't row drove
away and I was like, there's a new faffo in town.
L faffo. F around and find out. Dude, you't disrespect
me and my time and everything else. I'm not on
your watch. I got things to do. I gave you
a time to be ready. Disrespected. It had me waiting

(05:28):
around like an idiot. You talk back to me like
I was a chump. What am I chump? I'm your dad? Fafo. Man,
This happens in sports and the healings. I felt back
because I wanted to take her. She went to school
with holes in her shoes. I Uh, not really, but
you know what I mean. You don't need to tie
everything to sports, but I feel that way. When yesterday

(05:50):
the Mets could I single was cruising ninety pitches and
they took him out. And when they took him out,
the minute they were going of the bullpen, in my
mind I was like, bullpens thinks right now, FAFA, we're
gonna we're gonna f around the fire Mets, give up
the lead, lose the game. Yeah, it doesn't mean you
you pull out the switch, doesn't mean you beat your kid,

(06:13):
doesn't mean you slap them upside the head. It doesn't
mean you give him a knuckle sandwich or whatever threat
you got. It means if they think they got all
the answers and they're not gonna eat because they're not hungry,
well don't eat, but don't ask me anything for anything. Later,
f run and find out. I'll give you one last
one to wrap it up and we'll talk some NFL

(06:34):
and some nonsense. My son, he's five years old. Every
time he puts on his stupid little crocks. Like, budd
if you're gonna run around the block and downhill, put
on your sneakers. Don't. Hey, buddy boy Benny, don't run
in those. I'll I'm gonna find that. I see my

(06:55):
kid running down our hill. We live sort of on
a little hill. It's an he's got his name is Ben,
He's got his little crocs on, and I'm like, this
little effort is going to fall, and what do you know?
It falls, skins his knee. But I hate to see it.
But but you know what foo as Alison Chains said,

(07:17):
a lesson learn bro lesson learned fa fo. Yeah you okay, buddy,
what did that tell you? What did that tell you?
It's like the Yankees. You already made this reference, though, Rich,
but keep putting in, Devin Williams, just keep putting them in.

Speaker 2 (07:30):
Yeah, it's like my two year old code.

Speaker 3 (07:32):
He didn't want to be locked in his car seat,
so we roped him up on top of the suitcase.

Speaker 1 (07:37):
Yeah, exactly, that's exactly it, Danny g But no, it's true.
It applies to everything, and I and I think parenting
is the number one time where it's like you know what,
go ahead, do it or relationships right? How many times
has a woman been like, that's what you want to do? Okay?
When she's like when she says okay, fine, you're like,

(07:59):
oh uh oh, it's just letting them fail. That being
said because of their stubbornness or because they think they're right,
but you know, otherwise as an adult. That being said,
we wish all the kiddo's a great school year. Back
to school this week on the West Side. But we
got to talk Lebron James. I know some people hate

(08:19):
talking Lebron James. Some people love to just hate on
Lebron James. I think Lebron James doesn't really We're not
so much talking about Lebron. He's sort of what we
call the jump off to this conversation because on social media,
Danny g hit us up with a video and my goodness,
the comments prove how moronic people are. Spot. I want Spot,

(08:43):
our video guy, to be on standby for this one
because I think he's gonna have a thing or two
to say to you, especially rich about it. Spot, for
the record, is a guy that turned his life around.
He's now a Jim Rat. He had never gone to
the gym ever, in our twenty years of knowing him,
and then all of a sudden he had a health
scare and now he's mister fitness, mister Olympia. Some good

(09:04):
body ripped like Jesus so beyond standby spots. Also on
the videos as we speak, Lebron James is a Jim
rat sixteen They say sixteen hour sessions right.

Speaker 2 (09:17):
Oh me, Yeah, he does long days.

Speaker 3 (09:20):
In the headline, which was trending this morning, says Lebron's
workout form ignites online.

Speaker 1 (09:26):
Debate, online debate. Recent online discussion erupted after users critique
Lebron james workout while lifting. He's doing like dead lifts.
But again, he looks like a specimen. We know his resume.
We know his resume, we know how physically fit he is.
He comes conditioned every year. People are questioning if this

(09:49):
is the way to go, if it's suitable for his
athletic build. Lebron, who's set to enter his twenty third
season in the NBA, has been defended by many who
point out his long standing career. Dude, can you repeat
that his twenty three year career twenty season? Yeah, and
some fat Jabroni on Twitter is criticizing how he works out.

(10:12):
You mean the guy that stayed relatively healthy for two
plus decades in the NBA, a multiple time MVP, a
guy that's won NBA titles with multiple teams, arguably the
goat other than Jordan in most people's minds. You are
going to criticize his work out. So I'm not saying
you this the collective. You come on, you, Darvish. So

(10:33):
what we're getting at is you got one side saying, well, clearly,
whatever he's doing is working. The proof is in the
longevity and his physical abilities, the absolute peak of athleticism.
And then you have a bunch of Jim rats or
know it alls. And again, as Denzel Washington says, we'll

(10:54):
talk about that later, everybody has an opinion. They're critiquing
his technique, saying he's not doing it right and he's
a drone and he's an idiot, and look how he lifts,
and he's gonna hurt himself and how do you get
results something like that. It's like, I don't know, he's
done it for twenty three years. To me, So whether
you like him or not, how could you make fun
of a guy who has these results? Regardless of the form.

(11:20):
There are so many examples of where know it alls
put their two cents in and you're like, you're gonna
you're gonna criticize. I've seen funny videos where like random
dudes start giving golf swing advice to female professional golfers.
It's like, hey, sweetea, you're backswinging. It's like she's a pro,

(11:40):
you dope. So I have another example, all right, But
I want people to put their thinking hats on their
thinking caps based on this Lebron criticism, which again is
so easy to want to criticize him because he's such
a polarizing guy. I get that, But can you really
tique somebody if they look better than you or if

(12:05):
it just works for them when it comes to their workout?
Because I know Rich, you often get criticized by guys
like Spot. I joke about it. I say, you do
a bunny boy workout. Rich does the pee wee Herman
workout where he just you know, he wakes up in
the morning and he picks up two like two pound
weights and he's like, no, I okay, listen, good morning,

(12:28):
mister crabtree. I look at it this way. When I
see people my age, I see so many people in
their forties tearing a peck. Oh I pulled my shoulder,
my knee. You know, you hit middle aged and so
many people, you know, get these unnecessary gym injuries, which

(12:50):
is why you know what I do now, I've given
up heavy free weights. I'm on machines. I'm lifting lighter weights.
I mean, guess what, in fairness though, you've been on
this routine for a long time, and I'm with you,
I'm not here trying to hurt myself. I'm not. I'm
trying to maintain and uh just look the best that
I can. I'm not trying to be again, mister Universe,

(13:11):
I'm not trying to be a power lifter. I'm not
trying to be Derek Poundstone, and I'm not trying to
be a strong man. And guys like our video producer Spot,
He's like, oh, you don't really work out the right way. Meanwhile,
this guy's had shoulder surgeries, knee surgeries, you know, you
name it. The guy's always limping around. Now you're just.

Speaker 4 (13:29):
Making things up to suit your point. I never had
a knee surgery.

Speaker 1 (13:33):
The other day, were you not limping around with both
legs and you were like oh, visibly in the studio, like, oh.

Speaker 3 (13:40):
I never had surgery on it, so you shouldered though
spots and wrestles people, But that.

Speaker 4 (13:44):
Had nothing to do with working out. That was hurting
before I started working out.

Speaker 1 (13:48):
So can you really critique somebody about your point about
their workout or anything in life if they're doing better?
Like if some guy I have a friend that's broke
that tries to get fanatic and tries to get financial advice.
I was just gonna say that, but like I know,
people get real butt hurt when you talk about their
finances and you call them out for being broke. Does

(14:10):
a guy know that constantly talked about all the money
moves he's making. I'm like, what do you try? Why
do you try a nineteen ninety eight civic No, it's true,
man or. I was recently criticized. I went to, you know,
several places for vacation, like why would you go there?
Like why would I go there?

Speaker 2 (14:28):
You know?

Speaker 1 (14:28):
I got criticized because I chose Costa Rica recently, and
like like Costa Rica, some family members like why would
you go there? Like you go nowhere? How could you?
I mean, have you have you ever been there? You
go to the Pocanon. No, but you've never been there,
So how could you criticize the place I just went to?
And I'm telling you it's great, you know. So the

(14:50):
example I was going to give was I called this
to Tom Brady. What's happening to Lebron? Right now? I'm
calling the TB because there's a clip. We'll never find it, Sam,
you could search the internet forever, we'd never find it. Well,
it's like that photo in your phone. You see it
all the time, but when you're looking for it, you
can't find it. Oh, that clip is out there, but

(15:11):
now that you'd look for it, you can't find That's
a crazy phenomenon too. By the way, a picture on
your phone you know you have, hm hmm, can never
find could ever find it when you need it? Oh,
we renovated in the backyard. Now let me show you
the before picture. I mean, I know I have the
before picture. W how do I not wear? And then
sometimes you're able to find it. And here's the weird
part of the phenomenon. The one time you're able to

(15:32):
find let's say that picture or the clip, it doesn't play.
How many times you find a YouTube clip, You're like
you gotta see this. And that's when it's loading, and
it's like, and do we not have li fi here?
What's going on?

Speaker 5 (15:44):
Wait?

Speaker 1 (15:44):
Hold on, I can't believe it's not playing stand by,
it's about to play. It's about to play. The world
does not want me to have this right now. I
don't know what. I don't know what that phenomenon is.
You'll just accept it. Oh, it's without a doubt. You
tried the minute. I call it the Cavino because it
has to me all the time. Happened to me just
the other day. I told one of the dads, like

(16:04):
a little back to school thing, like, Yo, did you
see the Otani triple play? Now? I missed it. I'm like, yo,
you gotta see this. Of course at that point, at
that moment, isn't that a breakfast here at Denny's?

Speaker 2 (16:16):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (16:16):
The Totti triple play? Yeah? Only in Los Angeles. The
rest of you guys are missing out. Totti trimple play
comes with a bacon and saucle. Yeah, and ham I
called the Brady will never find this clip. But back
in the day when Tom, you know, before he chose
football over his family, there was a time he came
to a postgame press conference, and he was wearing some

(16:39):
really stylish sweater that could obviously Giselle had bought for him,
had purchased for him. He gets up to the podium
and he looks like damn Derek Zulander. He looks like, uh, oh,
you nailed it because his hair was all spiky. I
remember it was the hair, and I know it's hard
being so ridiculous. Ay good looking. He shows up like

(17:00):
handsome squid word. He looked like handsome squid word with
a Zoolander alphit on, and he really did. And some
with all due respect, some fat reporter in a polo
shirt with a lanyard around his neck, don't say that,
say fatso, it's coming back. Oh Fatso. It has a different,
like lighter ring to it. Some fatso with a polo

(17:23):
shirt with the buttons were popping open in the top
with a lanyard around his neck with a comb over,
was like Tom who with the sweater and Tom Brady
just goes. I quote Tom Brady. He didn't say anything,
He just goes, and that haha was a you're criticizing me,

(17:44):
And I just remember the guy criticized Brady sweater. Brady
Breddy looked at him and gave a little He gave
him a Kawi Leonard like, And I think I think
for anyone criticizing the work routine of Lebron James, he
should give the world the Tom Brady. Yeah, you could

(18:08):
critique anything else, his work ethic, his sixteen hour day
gym sessions, his form, it doesn't matter. Whatever he's doing
is working, not only on the court. But he's in
great shape, right, I mean, he looks fantastic for his

(18:32):
age for anybody. So maybe his form isn't correct for again,
a powerlifter or a gym rat or whatever, but whatever
he's doing, you know, he knows his limits. He's a
professional athlete. The people criticizing him probably not. I always
find it interesting. I don't think we could ever criticize

(18:52):
someone that is super successful at that, Like it's odd
to me. Like you again, it's like, but we all
sort of do that in a way, right, And that's why, Honestly,
I think that's what separates our show from other shows.
I think we always factor in like I might not
be a fan of this guy or frustrated with this person,
but they're still way better at this game than we

(19:16):
were I can hate the Mets. Yeah, we're just fans.
And I think that's what separates this show. There's so
many people that criticize from the sideline, and it's it's
it's a wild thing that people need to keep in mind.
Is perspective that needs to change a little bit. It's like, really,
you're criticizing them, think about that. We've all seen the

(19:37):
In fact, that's what Denzel Washington's man about and won't
play that quick later on. We've all seen the word
fatso is in style now right, uh kind of hear.
I hear fatso. It's like a dirty word because it
is it's mean, but Fats fat So feels a little
lighter and you're just fat. And I hear it used
a lot more recently, Bran, you have in the past

(19:59):
like five plus bring him back Fatso? Well, how about this?
How about some Fatso watching like I gotta know the
Dallas Cowboy Cheerleaders Netflix show and criticizing them America's Sweetheart. Yeah,
some dude that is using his belly button for cheese
dip while he sits on the couch. Fatso like cutting

(20:22):
down these women.

Speaker 6 (20:23):
Loo.

Speaker 1 (20:23):
Yeah, she's all right, Yeah, she's all right. It's like
seeing you're not attractive friend swiping on Tinder or bumble
or something, and you're like, you're you're saying no to her,
You should say yes to any I think it's just
Lebron's a polarizing guy. So no matter what he does, yeah,
is gonna get criticized. And the latest if you just
joined us Covino and rich In for Dan Patrick, Yeah,

(20:45):
a lot of things he does is worthy of criticism.
The way he flops, you could talk about the way
he handled the Brownie James thing, anything, the way he reads,
the way he reads, he reads the book exactly. Yeah,
there's plenty of things to criticize. But the latest was

(21:06):
his form and his technique at the gym. And look
at this guy. Everything he's doing is wrong. And can
you really critique if someone looks better and it works
for them. Like what I'm thinking too when I'm watching him,
like dead lift is all right, Maybe his form's not right,
but he knows that if he pushes any further, that's
how he might hurt himself. Like this is just enough

(21:28):
for me, Like doing this works for me. Like people
know their own people at that level, especially know their
own body. So have you ever seen those memes like
work out for what you do? And you see someone
at the gym, you're like, what are they doing? And
what's that Olympics about curling? It's someone that's just down
on the floor doing this one motion and you're like,
what are they work it out to do? And you're like, oh,

(21:51):
they're there, Yeah, that's what they do. Workout where you do.
Lebron James clearly knows how to work out what you're
shooting for him. Like we brought up every buddy spot
who wasn't six something in the morning on the West Coast,
he'd probably be debating with you. But he's lifting to
get strong and for strength in a lot of ways.
You know, Rich lifts for what are they call glamour muscles?

(22:14):
What do we call him? Like just to look good
in a T shirt? Yeah, just don't just don't. So
he's and I'm I'm trying to a lighter. Oh oh,
I didn't even know what he said. He said, when's
that gonna happen? Do you mean the guy that didn't
do a thing for thirty five years then all of

(22:36):
a sudden he's slim, good buddy?

Speaker 4 (22:37):
You mean the guy who learned more in two years
than you learned your whole life.

Speaker 1 (22:40):
To mean, the guy who's always injured, hobbling around the studio.

Speaker 4 (22:43):
Because that's your go to because you don't understand what
working out is.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
You can try all you want, but you won't beat
me in a rabbits.

Speaker 4 (22:50):
You'll play with your five pound dumbbells. I'm sure the
women will lend them to you.

Speaker 1 (22:54):
The Pee Wee Herman Edition signature series. I do. I
do fight the women at the gym for those small
Mitch Yeah, Rich does use pink dumbbells. They're cuter, which is.

Speaker 4 (23:06):
That pink Yeah has that five pound bulling ultra.

Speaker 1 (23:10):
So can you critique someone about their workouts If they're
in better shape, if they look better, and if it
works for them, who cares? Beat it? Mind your business.
He's at the gym sixteen hours a day, they say,
sixteen hour sessions, which sounds insane. But there's got to
be something to what he's doing to last this long

(23:31):
at that level. So maybe we should take a page
from the lebron book that he never reads and instead
of criticize them, say hey, maybe this works. Yep, No,
they're gonna no doubt. All right, listen, we're gonna get
to a bunch. There's there's a big rivalry that. By
the way, can you tell me about what he's doing
wrong before you move on? Why are you because we're

(23:53):
showing the clip on our YouTube page. Another reason to
check us out YouTube dot com. Slash at Covino and
rich FSR. He's he's doing these deadlifts, but like, I'm
no uh John based out I'm no John based out there,
So I'm not seeing what the problem is. It's everyone
thinks they know everything.

Speaker 4 (24:13):
It's I mean, he I wouldn't begin to know because
I don't know exactly what his intention is exactly because
he's doing something between a dead lift and a Romanian deadlift.
He's yanking up the way.

Speaker 1 (24:28):
Is that why he's wearing this war helmet? His lower
back is a little bit too arched.

Speaker 4 (24:32):
You could argue, I don't know, there's I mean, if
you really have to go in and critique every little thing,
but then you look at him, look at his lean
muscle mass.

Speaker 1 (24:39):
He's all right, So it's like, why do you look
like Lebrono? Then shut up the end? That's really it,
and that that's like I don't know we should name
this shut up then, so shut up fatso called shut
up Fats, shut up Fatso I'm gonna pull shut up
fatso on you. So we got a lot to get to.

(25:01):
It's a Friday. Danny's excited, and every Dodgers and Padres
fan is excited because the best rivalry in baseball this year,
Padres Dodgers goes down this weekend. So we will talk
a little baseball coming up, but football's on the brain
because we are less than three weeks away. So there's
a couple of fun stories in the world of football,
and a trend called honey potting. I'll explain. We'll talk

(25:23):
about it next right here, Covino and rich In for
the Great Dan Patrick.

I'm the producer of the Paul and Toni Fusco Show.
Usually in these promos they ask you to listen to
the show. I'm here to ask you, please don't listen
to the show. The hosts are two absolute morons who
have the dumbest takes on sports imaginicable. Don't listen to
the show so it can.

Speaker 1 (25:59):
Get the get him that fool. Listen to the Tony
Fosco Show on the iHeart Radio app or wherever you
get your podcast. He's still moving. Oh yeah, I can't
wait to hit the gym today and do everything wrong

(26:22):
and still look better than all the fatses criticizing me,
like Lebron James, Lebron like Lebron, give the Kawhi laugh,
give the Tom Brady chuckle. You think you know more
than me. I think this all goes back to, like,
what is it those who live in glasshouses? What's the
old saying? You know, the old saying, fool me once? Yeah,

(26:45):
fool me once. Here it is shame on, shame on.

Speaker 2 (26:49):
You can't get fooled again.

Speaker 1 (26:51):
People who live in glasshouses shouldn't throw stones, Like really,
let me see the people that are criticizing Lebron James
work out. Let me see them in their longevity in
professional sports. So that's what we were getting that and
we weren't necessarily defending Lebrian. There was a lot of
Lebron haters. We're just stating the facts. The guys played

(27:13):
for a long time at a really high level. We're
Cavino and rich In for Dan Patrick and most cars
on the road could use a little TLC. At MAKO,
we bring your car back to life with affordable paint
jobs and light collision repairs. Get a free estimate today.
Uh oh, better get MAKO. So I'm Steve Cavino. That
is rich Davis, Iowa, Sam is on the Ones and

(27:34):
Tuesday Danny g super producing, and stick around later today
because we're gonna do Chipotle Worker or WNBA player our
way familiarizing ourselves with everything and weekend hobnobbing. We do
it every Friday. What you need to watch in the
world of sports and entertainment. Now, there was a story

(27:55):
that I saw I want to bring up real quick,
not so much having to do with sports, but I
think you'll you'll have a take on this. I wonder
if you think this is legit or not. There's a
woman in New York. I saw this article out of
the New York Post, and it's all based on a
woman who is being paid by other women to tempt

(28:20):
their boyfriends and husbands, wow, to see if they'll cheat.
It's like a hot influencer who is hiring herself out,
like do you want me to see if your guy's loyal?
And so it's a it's a trap. It's a tart,
the old honeypot, the trap, it's a setup. Do you
think this is deceptive? Do you think I mean, if

(28:44):
you're catch a guy cheating, he's cheating or is it?
It's a sliding scale of what's considered cheating nowadays because
growing up again and wearing our forty somethings, it had
to be something physical to be considered cheating, right, Like
Olivia Newton John was talking about how to give you
physical Yeah, let's get physical. That's cheating now in today's world.

(29:07):
If you simply like someone's Instagram post and she has
a fine boute and you liked it, you're emostly cheating.
You cheated.

Speaker 5 (29:17):
Huge.

Speaker 1 (29:18):
It's like, okay, donkey, doctor Jones, hold on to your potatoes.
I'm not sure I did. I'm not sure I did anything.
Oh I did. It was like a social media post.
But if you're with a person who considers that cheating,
then I guess you did. It's a sliding scale of
what's considered cheating. Well, let me read this. Suspicious women
hire me as a honey trap to test of their

(29:40):
boyfriend will cheat, and it's shocking how fast men will
fold move over private detectives. There's an influencer. Her name
is Lana Madison. Ooh Lana. She has like three's company names, hounds,
like someone Larry Dallas would meet at the Regal Beagle.
She definitely hangs at the Regal Beagle. Jack. I got
Lana and the girls down at the Regal and like

(30:01):
a Wanda. And apparently this influencer in her twenties has
thousands of women asking her test my man. And how
hot does she? I mean, take, it's freaking hot. She's
gonna look at woman. I was just wondering. I mean,
I can't lie if you're gonna be the bait out there,

(30:23):
I'm wondering what she looks like. That's all I slide
into a guy's in box, flirt and see how far
he'll go. Is really her move? Yeah? But if you're
a guy, right, you're you're bart from Minnesota and no
one's hitting me up, ever, and some smoking hot chick
out of nowhere starts hitting out, Hey, Bart, I mean,

(30:43):
is Bart really gonna be like whoa wow? Almost I
almost really got it. Man, she loved that picture of me.
I guess look this under armour Polo, Like, is he
really thinking like, you know this Vikings had on me?

Speaker 5 (30:59):
Really?

Speaker 1 (31:00):
You look it must work? Is he really thinking that
it's legit? That's the other thing that people need to
be aware of then, And I bet this is a
growing thing. I believe that because there's so much temptation
on social media, like women know you're up to something.
She is sitting there smiling at your phone. What does
she thinks going on? She is charging five thousand dollars

(31:23):
for her top plan, wow, which is including DM sliding
and possibly bumping into him.

Speaker 3 (31:31):
Yeah, you know, I'm only a lawyer on your Guys'
radio show, but this sounds like entrapment.

Speaker 1 (31:38):
You know, I think it is, Danny. I know you're
happily married, but if you were just dating your girl
and you found out she was trying to set you
up like that, is that crowns for like, yeah, we're done.
If you're you're trying to you're baiting me, Like, I
think that's bad form, and I know it sounds like, well,
if you get caught cheating, are you the piece of trash?

(31:59):
I think there's something so wrong about baiting a dude
because guys, well hold on the fact that the guy
took the bait is still more wrong. He's still worse
in this story, so he doesn't have a leg to
stand on. Really, but everybody's wrong in this scenario. Yeah, true,

(32:20):
but there's someone who's more wrong. Yeah, think about that argument, right, Well,
if I didn't set me up, I wouldn't have cheated. Yeah, yeah,
you still took the bait. You lose her. If my
wife tried to trick me like that, I would I
would say that she's in the wrong. I'm just vulnerable.
What do you mean, No way, you just I get it,
that's your angle. But you're more wrong because vulnerable. How

(32:43):
like you would cry if you were on the Bachelor. Yeah,
you took the bait. I'm saying if if your girl
pays a model to essentially seduce you and you give in,
are you really in the wrong. Isn't she the wrong
one for setting up You're not. You're supposed to have
better willpower. Dude, I'm supposed to have better.

Speaker 5 (33:05):
You know.

Speaker 1 (33:07):
You can't fall into it. Show a temptation island. I've
seen it. They're destined to fail. It's the humans. Don't
resist those times.

Speaker 3 (33:17):
If not, if it's the one rich, if you you
you said if you were just dating, well, if you
know that's the one you're gonna wind up marrying, then
that's not what you're using social media for.

Speaker 1 (33:26):
I know, I'm just saying, like, delete that immediately. Guys,
I don't ever fall into you. Don't fall for traps.
But it's either your wife sitting me up or it's
just a scam. No one likes you. That's not the
life you live anymore. If you look at your friend
requests and it's some hot foreign model, I promise you
she's not in love.

Speaker 4 (33:43):
Please hire me two thousand dollars.

Speaker 1 (33:45):
And by the way, if you get like a random
text message and it's like, hey, who is this hot
Swedish girl? Olga that yeah I decided to friend me. Yeah. No,
it's a scam. So it's either a scam or your
wife's setting you up because she thinks you're up to something,
or she's just trying to find a way or a
reason to divorce. You don't fall for the trap. What's

(34:05):
this called? Why is it called honey potting? What does
that he mean? I think it's the catch be your honey. Yeah,
it's almost like a trap, like a like a Winnie
the Pool with a honeypott honey pot Just don't fall
for it. I just had to throw it out there
because it's it was a big trending story today. And
while I do think the guy caught up to no
good is in the wrong, No, I think the woman

(34:26):
for setting him up is even more in the right.
What if it was a hot chick, right, Danny g
And she's like, Danny, hey, what's going on? And you're
looking really hot? I love your Raiders shirts. Nothing I
love more than a guy who has a Raider's hat
with a Dodger's shirt. And she's like, if you want,
I got tickets tonight for Padre's Dodgers. Like, can your

(34:48):
wife really blame you for like buying into that one?
And she's like, Dodger Dog's on me, big boy.

Speaker 2 (34:54):
I mean she has enough tickets for my girl to
come too.

Speaker 1 (34:56):
It's all good, you know, but she promised me Dodger
and I want your Dodger dog. Like, that's not it
is not fair. You're right, rich, you're putting a guy
in so I think, well, the guy's an idiot if
he falls for it. I think the woman for trying
to set him up is equally or maybe even more
in the wrong. Like what type of baiting, treacherous, scandalous

(35:21):
nonsense does that? You know what? It goes both ways?
What if you hired a sugar maybe we could be
like the sugar daddy version of this rich where we
just you know, there's guys that think they're women are
up to no good, and we're like, hey, baby, you
want a Louis Vatan, give your boy a call. I'll
be your Stevia Daddy, because I'm not rich enough to
be a sugar daddy, but I'll buy you a sweet

(35:42):
coach bag. Stevia Daddy, Stevia Daddy. Steve, Well, hey, your
thoughts at covin on rich? My point is you could
play this game both ways, Like do you think your
woman wouldn't take the bait on some sort of rich guy? Yeah, Like, hey,
what's your Amazon wish list? Honey, I'll make your dreams

(36:04):
come true? Say your name is Sergio. Yeah, my name's Sergia.
I happen to see your profile. All right, Well, hey again,
anything you want to try me on on at Covin
on rich In for the Great Dan Patrick. We're gonna
talk some NFL next and of course, the biggest feud
in baseball, the best rivalry, goes down this weekend. We'll
talk a little Padres Dodgers coming up right here on

(36:25):
C and R.

Speaker 5 (36:25):

Speaker 1 (36:40):
Yeah all right, play it again, Sam, Iowa Sam on
the ones and twos. By the way, that's a Mandela effect.
I don't think anyone ever said play it against Sam.
I don't know old movies. The only old movie I
know is actually on TV now. Wizard of Oz came

(37:01):
out on this day in nineteen thirty nine. So if
you're wondering why you might see it on random channels today,
I was like, is it Thanksgiving or something? I was
so confused Wizard of Oz. Yeah, so we're Covino and
Rich in for the Great Dan Patrick Show, four of
the week. So it's the segmented Dan Patrick Hall and

Steve Cavino, Rich Davis, Danny g Sam Spot Rich's brothers

(37:43):
hanging out. We're having a fun Friday morning show wherever
you are. Thank you guys for hanging out and shout
out to all the affiliates. With roughly forty games to go, Yeah,
are you confident your Yankees will hang on and turn
it around? Or are you genuinely pessimistic? I buy into
what we said recently about rock Bottom, like there's only

(38:05):
one way to go from there, and with all the
mental buffoonery they've dealt with and just the stupid plays
and the dumb errors they've made, I think they can
only turn it around. Your mets on the other hand,
I don't know. I don't think. Listen, I know we're
East Coast guys. Most are of our affiliates not in

(38:25):
New York, right but the Yankees and Mets right now,
those are our teams. So we can't deny who our
teams are. Covino. Yeah, as we speak right now, the
Mets and Yankees have the same record sixty four and
fifty seven with forty one games to go. And forget
our bet our Mets Yankees bet. They are both now

(38:47):
in a position where they've dropped, where both have a
half a game lead for the last wildcard spot. The
Cleveland Guardians are half a game behind the Yankees, yeh.
And the Reds. My misery meter has been going off
to chow and the Reds are half a game behind
the Mets. So the reality is that with forty games

(39:07):
to go, like it's a new season essentially, like you
tell you that your team and my team both have
a half a game lead in the wildcard. Again, we
have a big bet going on who has the better record.
But it's been a crazy season and it gets crazier
this weekend. I have a quick question before we get
into the next hour and give away prizes and all

(39:29):
the fun. I'm proud of myself, like Randy Macho man Savage,
I really am. I'm so proud of myself because I
just came back from a family event, yeah right in
Lake Tahoe, and as we head into this weekend, it's
the Yankees Cardinals. Speaking of some good matchups, some fun matchups,

(39:53):
and the biggest one of all the Padres and Danny's Dodgers.
I met a guy at one of these family events
over the weekend who had full on Padres gear on,
like he was Bruce Bocci from the eighties, like he
was Steve Garvey, Like he had full like jersey and

(40:14):
hat on, so the obvious Anna Padre's teacher underneath, right,
And he was the greatest dude. He was a really
nice guy. We got along great. So I was like, say, man,
big Padres fan. He's like, not really, not really, you're
a deck down. Not really, he's all decked out. I
was like, how did I miss on this? You're wearing

(40:35):
all Padre's gear and I was giving you props on
your team. He's like, I'm from LA so everyone thinks,
but I'm both and I'm like, wait a second, hold on.
I said, you can't beat both rivals. And he told
me his whole story about how he's from LA and
his mom was and this and that he goes but
you know he lives in San Diego. Now, no, he

(40:57):
goes Yo. He was telling me there's a lot of them,
and I'm like, yeah, I never met one ever. You're
the only guy. Wait hold on. But dude, I let
his slide because I felt it wasn't a time and place.
I was like, you know, so it's a it's a
celebration of life here, you know, or family event like
well the hold on man, pose the question is there

(41:18):
a combination that is even worse than that? Like you
can't like I don't know, Packers and the Bears, like
you know, like cowboys Niners, like I don't know it happened.
We'll got more next in for Dan Patrick.
