Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (00:04):
We're live from the iHeart Studios in Atlanta, Covino and Rich,
Day three of the Dan Patrick Hadrick thanks you for
hanging out with us.
Speaker 3 (00:16):
I had a great.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
Time after the Star game at the home run derby.
We really nerd it out. Gotta admit that.
Speaker 4 (00:23):
In fact, speaking of the Big Dumper, if you go
to at Covine on Rich, there's video of us standing
right behind him and give a cage watching him hit
some bombs during batting practice.
Speaker 2 (00:32):
And we did focus on the Big Dumper. True, A
lot of nice numbers here in Atlanta. Be part of history.
On August second, at the MLB Speedway Classic ainst the
Braves take on the Reds at the iconic.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
Bristol Motor Speedway.
Speaker 2 (00:45):
For the first time ever, MLB's going to host a
regular season game in the state of Tennessee. Gates open
early for a full day of music, food, yes, games,
and fan experiences, including a concert stage headlined by Jake Owen.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
Tickets are going fast.
Speaker 2 (01:01):
Get yours now at MLB dot com slash Speedway Classic.
I gotta look. What do we do in August second?
I by the way I've been, we made some good
MLB connections.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
We gotta go.
Speaker 5 (01:10):
I've been to a Jake Owen concert.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
Danny g I know you have as well, great live
So this is gonna be a fun evend for MLB.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Oh, Jake owing I throw it is Gary Owen, your
favorite comedian. Yeah, Jake Owen and Tim mcgrawl. I know, man,
that's gonna be a big deal.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
And listen, we've been swinging from MLB all morning because
they had a great week. And you know what, if
you're going to criticize and be critical, and you know,
can you don't. I have a theory that if you
have the ability to be tough on people when things
aren't good, you got to give them props when they
deserve it. And for all the people that love to
be like yo, baseball was boring or did this? When
(01:46):
someone does something right, you got to give him props.
And baseball had a big week.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
One of Baseball's biggest criticism is how they didn't evolve. Yeah,
I mean, we saw history in the making last night
and it was exciting as could be. So love all
the changes. Win for baseball, and thank you guys for
hanging out with us. Covino and Rich. Everything at Covino
and Rich. If you want to follow our Atlanta adventures
at Covino and Rich. If you want to hate on us,
(02:11):
that's fine too, as long as you listen, as long
as you get involved at Fox Sports Radio, and we
gotta go from deep to cheap, all the cheapest. And
it's really is our buddy. And I say this and
I mean it, our buddy. He's one of the coolest
guys we work with. Rob Parker. You could work at
a place and the veterans either big time you or
(02:32):
treat you like like you're the man. And Rob Parker
is one of those guys. He's just down with everybody,
always having a good time. But is he a chief
skate That's really what we gotta get to or is
he smart?
Speaker 5 (02:43):
That's the question now.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
Rob Parker, a lot of people know him from ESPN,
Fox Sports over the years. One of the biggest sports writers.
Goes back, you know, to the eighties with Steven a.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
In the early days, Rob Parker was eighty six, the
guy that covered the eighty six Mets and he loves
to talk about that.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
So Rock Parker. We give him props because he's a
great dude, and he's one of the shows of the ODCO,
one of the shows on Fox Sports.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Right, and sounds like there's a butt coming.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Oh there is.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
I like to do a compliment sandwich standing a big
not the big buds he saw at Magic City. I
saw him on Instagram, but no one else I saw
on his Instagram besides him outside Magic City and in Atlanta.
That for his road trip he does MLB bro does
a lot of great work with baseball.
Speaker 5 (03:29):
Our very own Rock Parker. Can you want to read
the caption?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
He says, this is how you prepare for a cross
country trip from Atlanta to La night before you got
you go to the grocery store and buy a few
reduced price sandwiches, put them in a fridge in my
hotel room. Overnight bingo bingo at the airport. These are
sixteen dollars each. It's not being cheap, it's being smart.
(03:56):
Now these aren't even fresh sandwiches though. Oh so he's
traveling with like sandwiches that are reduced in price because
they were sitting around.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
They were boxed at the supermarket, but sat in that
like cooler for probably a day or so.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
So he's got Kuda sliders, chicken salad, Yeah, for two dollars.
Each thing was two dollars and seventy cents, so he
shared it over five bucks. Chicken salad croissant is the
other one. And we were talking about this on the
car ride over to the iHeart Studios. Here the chicken
salad has mayonnaise in here.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Correct.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
Yeah, So I mean this is a questionable choice by
Rob Parker. You know, reduced price old chicken salad. Now
you would say, well, I sell it if it's old. Listen,
I will. I am a man that tries to find
a bargain. Who isn't right? What man or woman isn't
trying to find a good deal. If I have people
over my house for a cook out of barbecue, my
(04:47):
wife's grilling up some stuff on her green egg and
I'm doing burgers and dogs, I will say if I
see reduced meat, and I see them doing it while
I'm there, I'm like, yeah, sell this if it's a
like sell by tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (05:02):
I'm like, I'm gonna cook it in an hour. Yeah,
I'll I'll take some.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Skirt steak or cheeseburgers that reduced price because I'm cooking
it Now I saw bacon is cured meat and it
was like, yeah, they must have had too much of
a shipment.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
I saw bacon for half price. I'm like, I'm gonna
make this tomorrow for breakfast. No one's above that.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
You ever go to the bakery section and you see
they just mark down all like the muffins or cakes.
Speaker 5 (05:24):
Now, I know you love marked down cakes.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Who doesn't love nice, juicy glstening cakes.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
The brown The brownies don't give you salmonella though.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
Yeah, I don't know your your thoughts on this.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
He just being a chief skate or is this the
best way to be We can't say that the ween
neeles overspend and everybody's broke and then hate on a
guy for trying to save a buck.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Rom Parker, I'm sorry to interrupt.
Speaker 6 (05:46):
I was just gonna say, Cove, you got to you
gotta add in his flight pattern.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Well, again, he spends. We've we've often behind the scenes
trying to figure this out.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
We'll ask Rob.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
I always see him next. But he's a guy that
travels a lot on his own dime, so he's got
to like budget. Everyone budgets and prioritizes differently, right, So
maybe he cuts out on these weak ass, cheap ass meals,
but he splurges at Magic City, and.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
It's like, you know, everyone chooses where they spend, Like
I always find it funny like Cavino or his Caino
will spend you know, a stupid amount of money on like.
Speaker 5 (06:23):
Some watch or sneakers.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
But Cavino's the guy that won't download a two dollars
app on his phone because go, I gotta pay for it.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
I'm not the only guy can.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
Cavino won't resubscribe to Apple TV because it's like five bucks.
Yet Cavino'll be like, yo, look at these sweet new
Jordan's I bid on, right, but again prioritizing differently. So
maybe Rob Parker cuts corners on things like this so
that he could afford those new Travis Scott nikes, right,
(06:51):
so that he can get an extra lap dance, so
that he can maybe splurge for a drink on his
sweet flight from Atlanta at the Los Angeles or whatever. Right,
So what do you think sheep boat or being smart?
Speaker 6 (07:10):
Remember he takes Allegiant, not Allegiant. He takes I'm sorry,
what's the other one? Your Spirit? He takes Spirit Airline flights,
and they're the airlines that charge you extra if you
breathe too many times.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
On the charge you I think if you go to
the bathroom.
Speaker 6 (07:27):
They literally they they charge you for any for any
carry on.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Anything other than your little personal item. Yeah, and they
charge for water on.
Speaker 6 (07:36):
So is Rob's toothbrush in his pocket? Like, what about
your bathroom back? Because he has said on our network
before that his thing is he finds the Ross dress
for less. Wherever he flies to, he goes on to
the plane with nothing nothing. He said, he went like
this when he told me with his hands, I walk
on the plane like that and he's like, I Land,
(07:57):
I find my Ross dress for less. I get a
bargain outfit and I don't even care if I don't
take it back home or not.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
So what does he roll back with is a boxer shorts.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
That's so, let me ask you this, what is it
that you Let's talk to our Dan Patrick friends.
Speaker 5 (08:13):
We appreciate you hanging with Covino on Rich.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
It could be sports related, it could be travel related,
family related.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
What is your weird thing? Like what are you willing
to spend on?
Speaker 4 (08:23):
But then on the flip of it, you're like no, no, no,
I will not spend for that at all. And because
we all have those things that you're willing to spend.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I mean, you pulled the Parker trick here at the
movie theater, don't you.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
I was just gonna say, like, if you go to
a stadium, let's say you're going to the Yankees game, right,
You're going to Dodger Stadium, Danny g if you bring
your kid, you're not gonna pack sandwiches and juice boxes.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Oh, definitely gonna do that.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
So isn't that essentially kind of what he's doing but
on a plane ride. So again, if you just joined us,
Rob Parker of the Odd Couple here on Fox Sports
Radio posted this. You can see it at Rob Parker
and LB bro on social media. He's got to reduce
price Guda sandwich. What are these Gudha sliders for two
dollars and seventy cents? To reduce prices because they're old.
Speaker 6 (09:12):
Yeah, so that's the that's where this is different rich
than us, like making a sandwich at home for our
little kid, and to.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Reduce priced chicken salad croissant for two seventy so instead
of paying sixteen bucks at the airport. He says, Look,
five bucks for the ride home. That's how you do it.
I'm not cheap, I'm smart.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
You know what.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
They're not going to sell it, are they? If it's bad.
I mean, they probably just got to get rid of it.
I mean, like, listen, like I said, there have been
times where I have people over quite a bit for barbecues.
If I go to the supermarket and I see you know,
clearly sometimes supermarkets over order, right, you've seen this right.
Speaker 5 (09:44):
Sometimes they don't have something.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
Other times they're like, why would hot dogs be three
dollars instead of six?
Speaker 5 (09:50):
Because they must have a lot of inventory. Okay, but
take advantage of that.
Speaker 6 (09:54):
Say he's got a long uber ride from his Atlanta
hotel to the airport chicken sandwich, and he's and then
airport's hot inside at the terminal hot chicken salad. Yeah,
so maybe they sell it and it's not bad yet,
but by the time he arrives to his gate it
might be bad.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Yeah, that sandwich is sitting around in his bag that
whole time. That's also kind of odd. I agree with that.
You know, maybe younger generations could take a page out
of the Rob Parker book, because you sometimes need to
be a bowler on a budget to be able to
do the things you want to do and not feel.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
Guilty about it. All right, I'll give you one and
we all have them. What are you willing to spend
money on? And what do you a cheap skate on?
I'll give you this. I'm more than willing to overspend
him buy Starbucks or cocktails at a bar without even
thinking about it.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
You go to Vegas, you go to an event, twenty.
Speaker 4 (10:47):
Dollars, old fashions or vodka sodas or fifteen bucks. You
go to Starbucks six seven dollars or a coffee. I
don't even think about it twice. But if I'm looking
to buy just like a basic T shirt, I'm going
to tar getting getting like a good fellow eight to
ten dollars T shirt.
Speaker 5 (11:03):
If I see a.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Designers when I'm wearing now, it's Banana Republic Costco. I
got it at Costco. How would you overspend on a
T shirt? But it's like plain T shir back coming up?
Speaker 4 (11:14):
He dresses well, but I can never Sometimes you go
to a department store and you're like to designer T
shirt for eighty bucks.
Speaker 5 (11:22):
I'm like, I could see you do that.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
Two hundred dollars plain John Varvado's T shirt. What's the
point of that.
Speaker 6 (11:27):
That's because you could dress up a generic T shirt
with the rest of your wardrobe.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
That is where I cut the biggest corner. You know,
you try to look good. You want to look good, right,
But who wants to overspend on a regular designer plane
T shirt?
Speaker 3 (11:42):
You can get that, and you get that at.
Speaker 5 (11:43):
Old Navy, I'll give you one.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
I think it's a lot of times you're you're disgusted
on it not being something you're excited about. It's just
more functional. Like to me, I'm taking my kids to
their first Mets game at City Field on Friday. I
went all out and we're like sitting right behind the
Mets dugout. Ticket price doesn't bother me. You know what
does though? Parking at the stadium and rental car. That
(12:08):
drives me bonkers. The fact that one hundreds of dollars
to rent the car and park will eat it me.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
But the few hundred dollars a ticket, I'm.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
Like, I got it. It's here.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
We're all different in these ways. But it was just funny.
We think we would bring it up real quick finding
the balance. Yeah, our buddy Rob Parker will let you
decide chicken salad sandwich with two bucks.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
I don't know if that's why you spend your money.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
We work with the guys, so we're not going to
say your cheap skate.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
I mean we might.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
We're gonna let you say it on his social media page.
Speaker 5 (12:38):
At rob b Bros.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Yeah, but if you read the comments, he's getting destroyed.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
People are giving them the business. They're definitely given the business.
Speaker 5 (12:50):
That's a great phrase, giving him the business.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
Remember that was it a referee that give a penalty
for the business sex n offers.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
He's giving him the business, giving him the business. We're
giving Round Parker the business.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Although we understand right because you got to balance out
your and your budget. What a cheap skate. This guy
spends money. You should see his sneakers. He comes in
and he's rocking his weak ass low budget sandwich. He
he's the guy sitting on a plane eating those sticking
up the airplane. That's hard, but.
Speaker 5 (13:23):
Think about it. Everyone's got that thing.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
You know.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
You definitely know a guy that's buying a thousand dollars
golf club, but he like he won't buy sneaker he
buys like generic sneakers, but he has every golf club
he has with one thousand dollars, so you see it
all the time. Any examples, Hey, we'll chop it up
at Covino and Rich. Now coming up, we have midweek
(13:47):
major Spot's going to give you the hottest stories in
the world of sports and entertainment. But I do have
one quick hypothetical for you guys. Nothing to really do
with sports, but I am I said, i am going
to New York this Friday. I'm so excited to see.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Remember to pack your reduced price sandwiches.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
I'm gonna I'm gonna see. I'm gonna see if they
have what's a good thing. Do you think they might
have some three day old salmon at the supermarket I
can bring on the.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
Plane with overwhelmed? Yeah, yeah, did you.
Speaker 5 (14:13):
Guys have Do you guys have any sushi?
Speaker 4 (14:15):
You know, like bargain sushi at the local store. So
I'm flying to New York because we did the All
Star Game. We didn't know we were doing that. So
my wife is flying from Los Angeles with the kids.
We're having a fun week fun long weekend in New York.
We're back next week. I arrive at the airport two
(14:35):
hours before my family. Their flight got a little delayed.
Do I have to hang at the airport and wait
for them? Or do I just or do I just pack?
Speaker 2 (14:45):
You have two rug rats if your wife is rolling
solo woman.
Speaker 5 (14:51):
At the hotel, but because she got the two kids.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
With her, all the bags and everything, Yeah, find the
massage place in the airport.
Speaker 5 (15:00):
Do they do the Oh no, do like a re
legitim massage.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
It was a joke.
Speaker 5 (15:05):
But yeah, two hours and watch Oh you know what
I'll do?
Speaker 4 (15:07):
Maybe I'll watch a quarterback on Netflix, or sit around,
Maybe go to bar.
Speaker 5 (15:14):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Did you finish squid Game?
Speaker 3 (15:16):
I did? Oh you did?
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Yeah? Yeah, I don't know. Go to the Can you
go see Superman come back?
Speaker 5 (15:21):
I'm just gonna be sitting at JFK.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
So if you if you're a JFK to and you
see me sitting around like a dope, I think.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
You have to have yeah, because you know what that
gets doing. Your wife's not one of those, but it's
it's the type of thing that gets down in your face.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Yeah. And I had the kids.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
And all the bags and you went home.
Speaker 5 (15:38):
Yeah, I guess. I guess I won't go Hotel.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Seven ninety nine on Fox. We're going to chime in
on that.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
Well, you know people are chiming in. Let's say hi
to Dan in Michigan. Dan, you're all with Kevin and
rich In for DP. We were just you know, making
fun of our buddy Rob Parker giving him the business.
What do you save money on? But yet you're willing
to spend on something else? What do you got buddy?
Speaker 7 (15:56):
Hey guys, I'll tell you what I always spend money on.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
I will ever not pay for the fast passes at
Disney Universal, et cetera.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Than dude.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
I'm telling you I did that for the first time
a while back. And I'm not saying I'm not acting
like a baller, But if you do have the money
to spend that you put away for a vacation with
your kids, you.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Have to reserve those at Disney now though right like
a few days before, like time it out, but can't
just roll up with the fast pass.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
But yeah, they like a day or so in event.
But there's something a lightning pass at Disney. It's called
like the Lightning Extreme or something whatever it was.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
It was.
Speaker 4 (16:33):
It was overpriced. But if you got little kids and
you could skip every line. I don't think there's a
price tag on that. I think that I think that
is that is absolutely something.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Reduced lightning pass two dollars and seventy cents.
Speaker 5 (16:49):
I ain't paying.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Ron Parker probably has.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
All right, Well, your thoughts will get your feedback at
Covin and Rich.
Speaker 5 (16:58):

video guy.

I don't have two hundred and fifty dollars rare Jordan's
like regular Jordan's are like one hundred and ten to
one hundred and thirty.
Speaker 5 (20:42):
That's what I spend on sneakers.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
You know, I'm not saying that you should, but if
you're working hard, you know, the the shoes on your
feet are like the tires on your car. They're important.
Some people are showy guys like you. Let's go to
Dan in Michigan.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
What's up?
Speaker 2 (20:58):
The hear Max nineties? They're not anything extravagant and.
Speaker 5 (21:01):
Good for you and your shoes. Dan with somebody Johnny
in Michigan. What's up?
Speaker 3 (21:07):
Johnny?
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Guys?
Speaker 9 (21:09):
How we doing?
Speaker 3 (21:10):
Good Man? What's up?
Speaker 9 (21:12):
Then?
Speaker 7 (21:12):
You guys, you guys got an incredible show first and foremost, Man,
I've been I've been listening to you guys are like
you guys are like rock stars. I tried calling in
on a contest you guys had but didn't work out.
But that's a lot of announcing for for like professional sports,
amateur sports and uff man and so I have no
problem getting like memorabilia, boxing gloves, you know, thousand bucks
(21:34):
or five hundred dollars or or you know, sports cards
or whatnot. Man, I will be damn if I'm gonna
pay the price that they want for silverware and plates.
So I go off and I buy plastic sporks and
I wash them, and I get kind of irritated when
my daughters throw me in the trash, but I'll go.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
You know, you're talking to Rich Davis, who steals them from.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Pantry. Yeah, he's he's a trash pack. Rich is a
trash back.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
You know what, can we rename the title of this discussion?
Rich is a trash back? He David Rich plastic forks
and spoons the knie from Chipotle. And that's why your
prices are so high. That's why they charged you four
dollars a couple. Because Rich Davids, I go to Chipotle
like twice a week. Right, it's my favor hold on,
(22:25):
it's my favorite go to. I spend a lot of
money there. Doesn't give you the right.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
And if I go there and instead of grabbing two.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Forks my wife and I, I grab a handful five
to ten and I can doesn't compile them. So when
we have teachers, because you're a handsome guy with a
goofy smile doesn't make it okay.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
I'm sorry. They wouldn't.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
I would never get away with that. They'd stop me
at the door. That's BS and you know it BS Baracas.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
Rich Day just.
Speaker 5 (22:47):
Say because you're Latino, they'd stopped I.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Got arresting, has nothing? Did I say that or did
you say that? It's just it could be my demeanor.
But just because you smile and point like shoote McGavin
and wink somebody on the way, that doesn't give you
the right to steal handfuls of plastic silverware. At Chipotle,
things are free, they're not stealing. So there's another one.
Rich cuts the corners on that.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
I have a hack for you. Yogurt Land.
Speaker 6 (23:14):
In places like that, they give they give away Rich
one or two to how many yogurts you buy, But
the frozen yogurt spoons are those like really solid plastic ones,
the good ones. Yeah, I know, And we don't throw
those away. They go in the dishwasher.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
They last for They're great for your little kids. You know.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
He's got a two.
Speaker 5 (23:30):
Year old and yogurt lands.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
You know what Our last caller did make me think
of something else too, though not only that Rich Davis's trash,
because he does that all the time. But if you
work in a certain industry, right like we work in
music and sports broadcasting, it's tough for me to shell
out on certain ticket prices because I know how easy
well it used to be to get your hands on
(23:54):
some when you work in the business, right, So sometimes
you're always looking for that deal on those tickets. Like
sometimes I refuse to pay that much money for a
concert ticket. I'm like, man, God bless the people that do.
Speaker 4 (24:06):
I can't do it, no matter how successful people become.
I can never understand people. I get when you get
upgraded and points and miles and all that, But people
that willingly buy first class tickets or only stay at
like the top hotels like.
Speaker 5 (24:24):
To me, perks bro. Sometimes sometimes a hotel is a hotel. Like,
if I'm just with you on a trip.
Speaker 6 (24:30):
I know you're sounding like Ben Maller. Okay, you guys
gave Okay. Ben Mallard from Fox Sports Radio is famous
for spending.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
Nothing on hotels.
Speaker 6 (24:41):
And when I ask him about bed bugs, He's like, ah, that, no,
there's not there's not bed budgs problems everywhere.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
And I'm like, that's what you think, bro.
Speaker 6 (24:48):
I don't want to I don't want to go on
a like a guy's trip with him because he won't
chip in for a nice hotel.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
Stays in a ten outside the West Well.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
And the reason we're here is because we were given
Parker the business because he takes old rotten sandwiches onto
the airplane because he gets them at discount reduced prices
at the grocery store and refuses to pay sixteen dollars
a sandwich. So the question was is he smart or
a cheap skate? And what do you cut corners on?
Eric will wrap with him in Vegas?
Speaker 5 (25:17):
What's up?
Speaker 3 (25:17):
Eric?
Speaker 9 (25:18):
Hey, guys, hoy you doing? I got a great one.
You're gonna love you for this. So I find furniture
and thank us and stuff like that I live in
summol it here in Las Vegas in the scenarios, so
people tend to throw away things that are pretty new
on the regular. So what I'll do is an overhaul day.
I'll drive around the neighborhood and I'll find stuff maybe
(25:39):
people threw away they use a couple of times that
might have broke, and I'll scan the two OL codes
and make a warranty claim on it and get a branding.
One meal to me freak, oh you're.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
You know what?
Speaker 4 (25:50):
I had one that I recently changed my mind because
we could all evolve, right, we can all evolve, thanks
for Sharon.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
But I used to be the guy. I was the
king of the cheap gas station phone charger.
Speaker 5 (26:02):
And then I'm like, you know what what or like.
Speaker 4 (26:06):
The cheap ass phone case the last upgrade I got
on my phone like a year ago, I was like,
all right, let me get a big boy charger at
the Apple store and a nice case with the magnet
and everything, And you know what, It made me realize
how much I wasted on just continuously buying these crappy
ten dollar chargers, like buy the power charger, buy a
nice phone case with the magnet, on the back and
(26:29):
it might cost you triple the amount, but it'll last you.
Speaker 5 (26:33):
So there's things were all cheap on. I agree it sucks.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
All right, so hey continue giving rob the business.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
What about underwear? Because you want to make sure your
undergarments are nice? But are you willing to buy like
Sacks or Tommy John or these nice like or are
you buying like cheap Haynes.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
What does Tommy John have to do with this?
Speaker 3 (26:55):
Stop it all right?
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Anyway, thank you guys for hanging out with us. Buy
some nice toonies if you're trying to impress your lady.
And it's time for mid Week Major.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Let's go Covino and Rich get you over the middle
of the week. When mid Week Major. I love that
we throw sports and pop culture headlines and topics at
the fellas and it's like the kids.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
Say, that's summit.
Speaker 10 (27:22):
We definitely major.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
See in our score mid Week Major.
Speaker 6 (27:29):
I gotta go really quick here so we can get spotty.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
Seven full minutes to me, I'm gonna stay home.
Speaker 6 (27:35):
We're guessing Atlanta's iHeart Studio. I have no red love
dice here, But what I did I wrote a number
down between one and ten Coveno go first, boy stinking
hard on its not.
Speaker 5 (27:47):
That hard number eight.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
I wanted to pick a nice brand over we live
in the same stupid brain, I wrote that all three
of us.
Speaker 6 (27:54):
Live in the same stupid fat Oh.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
My god, one one hundred. We have to do this again.
Speaker 11 (28:01):
Rich goes first, all right, and now, ladies and gentlemen,
the most famous person from Scotch Points, New Jersey besides
Judy Bloom Spotty down four.
Speaker 4 (28:12):
Minutes because we have to pick a number, I mean,
Steve Young, Garrett car Here we go.
Speaker 10 (28:18):
Quickly, all right, since riches first, Pete Alonzo, I'll start
with him. It's All Star week. Obviously a lot of
headlines in the news with that. But Pete Alonso has
a suggestion for MLB that might anthems things.
Speaker 5 (28:28):
Up even more than they already are.
Speaker 10 (28:31):
So during this week's festivities, he was asked one rule
he'd changed given the opportunity at MLB, and without hesitation,
he said that pictures and hitters should be able to
fight each other like they do in the NFL NHL
say that hitters shouldn't be objected for charging the mound
or fighting.
Speaker 3 (28:48):
He said it should be hockey styles.
Speaker 10 (28:49):
So no, teams know nothing, because that's when people can
get hurt. If you want to go out and charge
the mound, you should be able to, but you have
the option to take a knee. If you don't want
to fight, you could just stop set out. But if
you charge, someone charges them mount. It's one versus one
hot style. So if a polar bear Peak could take over,
that's what he would do.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Maybe, dude, this is major and I'll tell you why.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
Because he's the polar Bear. He would whoop everyone's ass.
People would think twice about throwing Pete high and tight.
Pete Alonzo also is I'm a Mets fan. He's one
of the most lovable goons there are, so if anyone
was gonna say this, I feel like Pete's the guy.
But listen, baseball's hot right now, it's popping, so add
some fights to it.
Speaker 5 (29:30):
Now you're talking, you know.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
It's major and it sounds silly, but I think he's
really onto something here, because what makes it dangerous Everybody
running out there could turn into.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
A full on brawl.
Speaker 2 (29:44):
Ninety nine percent of the time it's a it's a
nothing burger and everyone just runs out there to say
what's up? But yeah, take matters into your own hands.
The one weird thing is taking a knee, because man,
who's gonna do that. You're gonna get criticized for the
rest of you.
Speaker 4 (29:57):
Look show Tani and you do it in like an
honorable way.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Like is he's such a friendly guy, one on one
sort of match. I'm the type of guy that'll watch
any fight. I'm excited about Pakiao this week.
Speaker 5 (30:09):
Hed.
Speaker 3 (30:09):
Yeah, so you're the guy. Sign me up for this.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
We all love a good baseball brawl, but if it's
a one on one thing, I'm all for it. I
think he's really honest. It makes it safer because if
you're gonna.
Speaker 10 (30:18):
Throw it me, let's go all right over the WNBA
two stories there. So the Athletic known for its a
anonymous player polls across multiple leagues, while they've finally conducted
their anonymous player poll the WNBA and asked the biggest
question on everyone's mind, and that's who do they think
the face of the league will be within the next
five years, And a whopping fifty three point eight percent
(30:40):
of players answered who you might expect? No, not three
times Sportswoman of the Rangel race. It's actually the Fever's
own Caitlin Clark. Behind her was US he star Juju
Watkins with seventeen point nine percent and Wings rookie Page
Beckers with fourteen point one percent. Some of the anonymous
comments about Clark include quote she's clear already a dradge,
(31:01):
but she's and she still has room to improve as
a player, with another one saying that she is quote
currently the face of the league already, so despite not
being the best player. Evident that she's moving the needle
with things. So maybeker major, I mean a mid that's
because we knew this already.
Speaker 4 (31:17):
But I'm wondering the other the forty six point two
percent of players that didn't vote for Kaitlyn Clark, Like,
what are they watching?
Speaker 5 (31:25):
What numbers are they looking at?
Speaker 2 (31:26):
It's clear that when Kaitlyn Clark doesn't play, oh, when
Kaitlyn Clark is injured or something happens, they've moved games
Canino to bigger arenas because of Kaitlyn Clark. For her
not to be the answer, you're just tone deaf in
your own sport. I think it's major, because again Rich
said it, forty six point two percent of the league
(31:47):
is still hating on her still.
Speaker 5 (31:49):
Hating, still don't acknowledge the reality.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
Give me a break, but maybe there is a point
I'll give. I'll throw the button there, the big dumper
in there, because I mean, she just got hurt again. Yeah,
we don't oh what the future looks like? I mean,
is it going to be a health.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
Issue moving forward?
Speaker 2 (32:03):
Now? The other players don't know?
Speaker 4 (32:04):
The other players mentioned Juju Watkins and Page Beckers. They're
great young athletes. But if you're asking who the face
of the league is, like, that's not even like a question.
It would be like saying that you don't believe Otani
and Judger like the faces of baseball.
Speaker 5 (32:18):
Come on, get with it.
Speaker 10 (32:20):
My dad would get with it. Carroll is the butt
of the all right. So Shaq also getting some headlines
along the lines of wnba Hey stepping up to defend
Caitlin Clark's rival Angel Reese by sending a very stern
warning to RG three. So during an appearance on the
Off the Record podcast, Shack went on a rant about
(32:41):
RG three reposting a racist meme of Reese on.
Speaker 3 (32:44):
His ex page.
Speaker 10 (32:45):
Shaq took off his glasses, stared into the camera, and
said directly at RG three if you posts another meme
like that, he's going to quote punch you in your.
Speaker 3 (32:54):
F and face.
Speaker 10 (32:55):
Okay, it's enough, He acknowledged he usually doesn't do stuff
like that, but to leave Angel Reese alone, he said
he even devised Reese against even responding or commenting about
RG three's post. RGI three yet to respond to any
of this. Well, but we'll see how it grows.
Speaker 3 (33:09):
Maybe ker major.
Speaker 5 (33:10):
I mean I think it's major.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
Shack said he was going to punch RG three the faith,
But RG three, r G three and Shack just why
not have it like the you know, celebrity pre cards
to the next Jake Paul fight. I'm sure right for
Sugar Shane mostly I'll fight RG three.
Speaker 4 (33:29):
I mean, to be on Shack's bad side is weird
because I feel like Shack's such a lovable guy.
Speaker 5 (33:32):
So RG three, good luck with that.
Speaker 3 (33:34):
Double grolsmer.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
It's a little misleading to the story because it's not
like RG three posted he reaped the race.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
He reposted it and.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
Sort of defended Angel Reese in a backwards way and
then made it about him, and you know, it was
kind of taken out of context. It was a really
weird sort of post by r G three. But I
love the fact that Shack is saying and he'll punch
them in the nose because I love drama and I
love fights.
Speaker 3 (34:02):
I already said that, Yeah, bring it to the ring.
Speaker 10 (34:04):
Let's go all right, if you're trying to land a
beautiful woman, like, we'll go back to the WNBA. Like
WNBA star Cameron Brink may want to head back to
English class. So in the latest episode of Brings podcast
Straight to Cam she was discussing the topic of X.
I know we all love that term X with her
teammate deer Could Camby and nets Terce Terrence Man. Brings said,
(34:25):
maybe it's the Stanford girl and me. But grammar is
very important to me, and if I see something with
bad grammar or someone misspells something, it really irks me.
Speaker 3 (34:34):
So grammar her big turn.
Speaker 4 (34:36):
Dude, I think it's mad because we all have quote X,
we just don't call them X. Like there's a trend
now where younger women are like, I'm not gonna shave
my legs and armpits. That's my that's disgusting. WHOA, But
Cameron Brink is a lots of listen. I had a
buddy that wants dumped a howt girl because they were
at a restaurant and she kept saying shrimps plural instead
of shrimp.
Speaker 3 (34:56):
Scrimps, shrimps.
Speaker 2 (34:58):
Cearly she wasn't that hot then, Because if that's going
to be the deal breaker, I mean, grammar is important,
if you know, I mean.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
I mean it's important.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
But if she's a smoke show and she says shrimps,
I think you'll make a pass. What if she says
d ers too, Yeah, I think I think he'll overlook that.
Speaker 3 (35:12):
Yeah, it's a mid story.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
I agree with rich because everybody does have I hate
the word, but preferences. No, I think grammar's important though, exactly.
Speaker 5 (35:26):
All right, hey, fake spot.
Speaker 10 (35:28):
Okay, what was the last one wants going to be about?
Nick Sirianni defend defending hurts but he's still doing that
Super Bowl, still doing rental cars. Yeah, Hurst's good Brady
and his electric cars.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
All right.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
Well, Hey, we're gonna wrap with some NFL there's a
story about one of your favorite NFL hot shots from
the past twenty years, the guy that we thought might
have blew up the league but he sort of fell flat.
We'll get to that and a little more NFL. Next,
before you get out of here in for Dan Patrick,
your butts, Cavino and rich.
Speaker 1 (36:05):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio WAPP.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
It's the world famous CNR show. World famous, never heard
of him, Cavino and Rich In for Dan Patrick. I
say world famous because perhaps you saw our television appearance
at the home run Derby bushwhacking in left field, Bushwhacker Boys,
arm Back. We're live right now from the iHeart Studios
in Atlanta. Pickleball is booming and Tyrol is leading the charge.
(36:40):
Tyroll makes a shoe built for pickleball with a rugged
vibrum outsole that outlast tennis shoes, more comfort, grip and
game Tyrol t y ro L remember the name. Play Longer,
move quicker, and look like a pro at tyroll pickleball
dot Com. All right now, before you get out of here,
(37:01):
a little dose of NFL because the reality is NFL.
As much as we're hanging from baseball, NFL's king and
as we get closer to the season, the speculation about
every quarterback, every team who's doing what predictions we've talked
about already.
Speaker 5 (37:18):
Who are the top ten quarterbacks?
Speaker 2 (37:19):
Is Aaron Rodgers going to take the Steelers to the
next level?
Speaker 5 (37:22):
Is he done?
Speaker 4 (37:23):
Could Jalen Hurts, you know, do this all again? Like
there are the Niners? Is their window closed? Like every
day there's stories it just we all know that before
you know it, this is going to be the day
to day daily conversation. And a guy that you probably
thought you were going to watch play a little bit
more than you did in the NFL. Johnny Manzel was
(37:43):
on the Impulsive podcast Yeah.
Speaker 6 (37:46):
Jake Paul asked Johnny football if he could have been
one of the all time greats. I don't know about
one of the all time greats, but I definitely could
have been a person that played in the NFL for
eight to ten years. Menzel said, I had a lot
of talent, a lot of ability that I know special.
Speaker 5 (38:01):
And I can't disagree with that sentiment.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
Totally agree with him.
Speaker 4 (38:03):
I mean, I don't think anyone ever doubted like Johnny
Manzel's talent. I think they they questioned, much like a
JaMarcus Russell, they questioned, can you put it all together?
Speaker 5 (38:12):
In the NFL? Because it's not he had discipline.
Speaker 2 (38:14):
He could have been like Baker Mayfield, you don't think,
like the same sort of scrappy makeup. If he wasn't
his own worst enemy, tripping on his own cleats and
getting in his own way. I think so if he
had a certain level of discipline, he could have had
a solid career. I truly believe that.
Speaker 3 (38:31):
See the biggest what if of NFL qbs, he's one
of them. There's a lot of them.
Speaker 4 (38:35):
There's a lot of big what ifs are pal Joe Bimel,
former baseball pitcher. He played around the league on a
bunch of teams for over a decade. I saw him
recently put out a video. You know, younger people asking
Joe he does a baseball clinic, bimele athletics. I saw
him saying, kids ask what does it take to make
it to the bigs? And he's like, of course talented,
(38:56):
then talent and genetics is so that's a big part
of it. But you got to want to put the
work in. And when you think you're put enough work in,
you're not putting enough work in. Like you got to
put the work in and be so disciplined what you
hate and just want it more than the next guy.
Speaker 9 (39:17):
Right.
Speaker 4 (39:17):
He said, there's been guys that way more talent than
him that didn't even make the bigs because they didn't
have what it took. And I saw my boy, Francisco
Lindor interviewed at the All Star Game and someone asked
him about what keeps you motivated? And he's like, I'll
be honest, I don't think in terms of motivation, because
motivation comes and goes. I'm disciplined because you could be
(39:39):
motivated one day, have an off day, a bad day,
a great day, good. But Lindor, you know, leads to preparedness, consistence,
and consistency.
Speaker 2 (39:48):
Yeah, he's absolutely right. It's an interesting answer, but he's right. Lindor,
Like what motivation comes and goes, it goes through phases.
Sometimes you have it, sometimes you don't. Sometimes you don't
want to get out of bed. But as Mike Tyson said,
that's when discipline kicks in. Sometimes I don't want to
get out of bed.
Speaker 3 (40:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:05):
Do you think Floyd Mayweather as much as may lover
hate that guy? You think Mayweather wanted to train every
morning at five am, running the streets for miles and
miles and Miles.
Speaker 5 (40:14):
And no, it's the discipline.
Speaker 2 (40:16):
But Johnny Manziel is definitely one of the top answers
when it comes to the what ifs. What if he
had the discipline, what if he was able to continue
his career? You know, I think len Bias is another
top answer that always comes up, and that might be
the number one answer Derek Rose, because the what ifs
are there for him even though he had a great career.
It's like, man, what if he didn't get injured? Right
because he was coming on strong, But what if len
(40:39):
Bias had not passed away? Probably the whole dynamic of.
Speaker 4 (40:42):
The NBA change for a decade plus, That might be
the number one answer.
Speaker 5 (40:46):
Right, We'll see you guys when we're back.
Speaker 11 (40:48):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (40:49):
We're back on Tuesday at a regular time, two to

And we did focus on the Big Dumper. True, A
lot of nice numbers here in Atlanta. Be part of history.

MLB connections.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
We gotta go.
Speaker 5 (01:10):
I've been to a Jake Owen concert.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
Danny g I know you have as well, great live
So this is gonna be a fun evend for MLB.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Oh, Jake owing I throw it is Gary Owen, your
favorite comedian. Yeah, Jake Owen and Tim mcgrawl. I know, man,
that's gonna be a big deal.
Speaker 4 (01:26):
And listen, we've been swinging from MLB all morning because
they had a great week. And you know what, if
you're going to criticize and be critical, and you know,
can you don't. I have a theory that if you
have the ability to be tough on people when things
aren't good, you got to give them props when they
deserve it. And for all the people that love to
be like yo, baseball was boring or did this? When
(01:46):
someone does something right, you got to give him props.
And baseball had a big week.
Speaker 2 (01:50):
One of Baseball's biggest criticism is how they didn't evolve. Yeah,
I mean, we saw history in the making last night
and it was exciting as could be. So love all
the changes. Win for baseball, and thank you guys for
hanging out with us. Covino and Rich. Everything at Covino
and Rich. If you want to follow our Atlanta adventures
at Covino and Rich. If you want to hate on us,
(02:11):
that's fine too, as long as you listen, as long
as you get involved at Fox Sports Radio, and we
gotta go from deep to cheap, all the cheapest. And
it's really is our buddy. And I say this and
I mean it, our buddy. He's one of the coolest
guys we work with. Rob Parker. You could work at
a place and the veterans either big time you or
(02:32):
treat you like like you're the man. And Rob Parker
is one of those guys. He's just down with everybody,
always having a good time. But is he a chief
skate That's really what we gotta get to or is
he smart?
Speaker 5 (02:43):
That's the question now.
Speaker 4 (02:45):
Rob Parker, a lot of people know him from ESPN,
Fox Sports over the years. One of the biggest sports writers.
Goes back, you know, to the eighties with Steven a.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
In the early days, Rob Parker was eighty six, the
guy that covered the eighty six Mets and he loves
to talk about that.
Speaker 4 (03:01):
So Rock Parker. We give him props because he's a
great dude, and he's one of the shows of the ODCO,
one of the shows on Fox Sports.
Speaker 3 (03:08):
Right, and sounds like there's a butt coming.
Speaker 5 (03:10):
Oh there is.
Speaker 4 (03:10):
I like to do a compliment sandwich standing a big
not the big buds he saw at Magic City. I
saw him on Instagram, but no one else I saw
on his Instagram besides him outside Magic City and in Atlanta.
That for his road trip he does MLB bro does
a lot of great work with baseball.
Speaker 5 (03:29):
Our very own Rock Parker. Can you want to read
the caption?
Speaker 2 (03:33):
He says, this is how you prepare for a cross
country trip from Atlanta to La night before you got
you go to the grocery store and buy a few
reduced price sandwiches, put them in a fridge in my
hotel room. Overnight bingo bingo at the airport. These are
sixteen dollars each. It's not being cheap, it's being smart.
(03:56):
Now these aren't even fresh sandwiches though. Oh so he's
traveling with like sandwiches that are reduced in price because
they were sitting around.
Speaker 4 (04:03):
They were boxed at the supermarket, but sat in that
like cooler for probably a day or so.
Speaker 2 (04:07):
So he's got Kuda sliders, chicken salad, Yeah, for two dollars.
Each thing was two dollars and seventy cents, so he
shared it over five bucks. Chicken salad croissant is the
other one. And we were talking about this on the
car ride over to the iHeart Studios. Here the chicken
salad has mayonnaise in here.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Correct.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
Yeah, So I mean this is a questionable choice by
Rob Parker. You know, reduced price old chicken salad. Now
you would say, well, I sell it if it's old. Listen,
I will. I am a man that tries to find
a bargain. Who isn't right? What man or woman isn't
trying to find a good deal. If I have people
over my house for a cook out of barbecue, my
(04:47):
wife's grilling up some stuff on her green egg and
I'm doing burgers and dogs, I will say if I
see reduced meat, and I see them doing it while
I'm there, I'm like, yeah, sell this if it's a
like sell by tomorrow.
Speaker 5 (05:02):
I'm like, I'm gonna cook it in an hour. Yeah,
I'll I'll take some.
Speaker 4 (05:05):
Skirt steak or cheeseburgers that reduced price because I'm cooking
it Now I saw bacon is cured meat and it
was like, yeah, they must have had too much of
a shipment.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
I saw bacon for half price. I'm like, I'm gonna
make this tomorrow for breakfast. No one's above that.
Speaker 4 (05:19):
You ever go to the bakery section and you see
they just mark down all like the muffins or cakes.
Speaker 5 (05:24):
Now, I know you love marked down cakes.
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Who doesn't love nice, juicy glstening cakes.
Speaker 3 (05:29):
The brown The brownies don't give you salmonella though.
Speaker 5 (05:32):
Yeah, I don't know your your thoughts on this.
Speaker 2 (05:33):
He just being a chief skate or is this the
best way to be We can't say that the ween
neeles overspend and everybody's broke and then hate on a
guy for trying to save a buck.
Speaker 3 (05:44):
Rom Parker, I'm sorry to interrupt.
Speaker 6 (05:46):
I was just gonna say, Cove, you got to you
gotta add in his flight pattern.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
Well, again, he spends. We've we've often behind the scenes
trying to figure this out.
Speaker 3 (05:55):
We'll ask Rob.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
I always see him next. But he's a guy that
travels a lot on his own dime, so he's got
to like budget. Everyone budgets and prioritizes differently, right, So
maybe he cuts out on these weak ass, cheap ass meals,
but he splurges at Magic City, and.
Speaker 4 (06:13):
It's like, you know, everyone chooses where they spend, Like
I always find it funny like Cavino or his Caino
will spend you know, a stupid amount of money on like.
Speaker 5 (06:23):
Some watch or sneakers.
Speaker 4 (06:24):
But Cavino's the guy that won't download a two dollars
app on his phone because go, I gotta pay for it.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
I'm not the only guy can.
Speaker 4 (06:31):
Cavino won't resubscribe to Apple TV because it's like five bucks.
Yet Cavino'll be like, yo, look at these sweet new
Jordan's I bid on, right, but again prioritizing differently. So
maybe Rob Parker cuts corners on things like this so
that he could afford those new Travis Scott nikes, right,
(06:51):
so that he can get an extra lap dance, so
that he can maybe splurge for a drink on his
sweet flight from Atlanta at the Los Angeles or whatever. Right,
So what do you think sheep boat or being smart?
Speaker 6 (07:10):
Remember he takes Allegiant, not Allegiant. He takes I'm sorry,
what's the other one? Your Spirit? He takes Spirit Airline flights,
and they're the airlines that charge you extra if you
breathe too many times.
Speaker 5 (07:24):
On the charge you I think if you go to
the bathroom.
Speaker 6 (07:27):
They literally they they charge you for any for any
carry on.
Speaker 4 (07:31):
Anything other than your little personal item. Yeah, and they
charge for water on.
Speaker 6 (07:36):
So is Rob's toothbrush in his pocket? Like, what about
your bathroom back? Because he has said on our network
before that his thing is he finds the Ross dress
for less. Wherever he flies to, he goes on to
the plane with nothing nothing. He said, he went like
this when he told me with his hands, I walk
on the plane like that and he's like, I Land,
(07:57):
I find my Ross dress for less. I get a
bargain outfit and I don't even care if I don't
take it back home or not.
Speaker 2 (08:03):
So what does he roll back with is a boxer shorts.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
That's so, let me ask you this, what is it
that you Let's talk to our Dan Patrick friends.
Speaker 5 (08:13):
We appreciate you hanging with Covino on Rich.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
It could be sports related, it could be travel related,
family related.
Speaker 5 (08:19):
What is your weird thing? Like what are you willing
to spend on?
Speaker 4 (08:23):
But then on the flip of it, you're like no, no, no,
I will not spend for that at all. And because
we all have those things that you're willing to spend.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
I mean, you pulled the Parker trick here at the
movie theater, don't you.
Speaker 4 (08:38):
I was just gonna say, like, if you go to
a stadium, let's say you're going to the Yankees game, right,
You're going to Dodger Stadium, Danny g if you bring
your kid, you're not gonna pack sandwiches and juice boxes.
Speaker 3 (08:48):
Oh, definitely gonna do that.
Speaker 2 (08:49):
So isn't that essentially kind of what he's doing but
on a plane ride. So again, if you just joined us,
Rob Parker of the Odd Couple here on Fox Sports
Radio posted this. You can see it at Rob Parker
and LB bro on social media. He's got to reduce
price Guda sandwich. What are these Gudha sliders for two
dollars and seventy cents? To reduce prices because they're old.
Speaker 6 (09:12):
Yeah, so that's the that's where this is different rich
than us, like making a sandwich at home for our
little kid, and to.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Reduce priced chicken salad croissant for two seventy so instead
of paying sixteen bucks at the airport. He says, Look,
five bucks for the ride home. That's how you do it.
I'm not cheap, I'm smart.
Speaker 3 (09:28):
You know what.
Speaker 4 (09:29):
They're not going to sell it, are they? If it's bad.
I mean, they probably just got to get rid of it.
I mean, like, listen, like I said, there have been
times where I have people over quite a bit for barbecues.
If I go to the supermarket and I see you know,
clearly sometimes supermarkets over order, right, you've seen this right.
Speaker 5 (09:44):
Sometimes they don't have something.
Speaker 4 (09:45):
Other times they're like, why would hot dogs be three
dollars instead of six?
Speaker 5 (09:50):
Because they must have a lot of inventory. Okay, but
take advantage of that.
Speaker 6 (09:54):
Say he's got a long uber ride from his Atlanta
hotel to the airport chicken sandwich, and he's and then
airport's hot inside at the terminal hot chicken salad. Yeah,
so maybe they sell it and it's not bad yet,
but by the time he arrives to his gate it
might be bad.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
Yeah, that sandwich is sitting around in his bag that
whole time. That's also kind of odd. I agree with that.
You know, maybe younger generations could take a page out
of the Rob Parker book, because you sometimes need to
be a bowler on a budget to be able to
do the things you want to do and not feel.
Speaker 4 (10:26):
Guilty about it. All right, I'll give you one and
we all have them. What are you willing to spend
money on? And what do you a cheap skate on?
I'll give you this. I'm more than willing to overspend
him buy Starbucks or cocktails at a bar without even
thinking about it.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
You go to Vegas, you go to an event, twenty.
Speaker 4 (10:47):
Dollars, old fashions or vodka sodas or fifteen bucks. You
go to Starbucks six seven dollars or a coffee. I
don't even think about it twice. But if I'm looking
to buy just like a basic T shirt, I'm going
to tar getting getting like a good fellow eight to
ten dollars T shirt.
Speaker 5 (11:03):
If I see a.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
Designers when I'm wearing now, it's Banana Republic Costco. I
got it at Costco. How would you overspend on a
T shirt? But it's like plain T shir back coming up?
Speaker 4 (11:14):
He dresses well, but I can never Sometimes you go
to a department store and you're like to designer T
shirt for eighty bucks.
Speaker 5 (11:22):
I'm like, I could see you do that.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
Two hundred dollars plain John Varvado's T shirt. What's the
point of that.
Speaker 6 (11:27):
That's because you could dress up a generic T shirt
with the rest of your wardrobe.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
That is where I cut the biggest corner. You know,
you try to look good. You want to look good, right,
But who wants to overspend on a regular designer plane
T shirt?
Speaker 3 (11:42):
You can get that, and you get that at.
Speaker 5 (11:43):
Old Navy, I'll give you one.
Speaker 4 (11:45):
I think it's a lot of times you're you're disgusted
on it not being something you're excited about. It's just
more functional. Like to me, I'm taking my kids to
their first Mets game at City Field on Friday. I
went all out and we're like sitting right behind the
Mets dugout. Ticket price doesn't bother me. You know what
does though? Parking at the stadium and rental car. That
(12:08):
drives me bonkers. The fact that one hundreds of dollars
to rent the car and park will eat it me.
Speaker 5 (12:14):
But the few hundred dollars a ticket, I'm.
Speaker 3 (12:16):
Like, I got it. It's here.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
We're all different in these ways. But it was just funny.
We think we would bring it up real quick finding
the balance. Yeah, our buddy Rob Parker will let you
decide chicken salad sandwich with two bucks.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
I don't know if that's why you spend your money.
Speaker 2 (12:31):
We work with the guys, so we're not going to
say your cheap skate.
Speaker 3 (12:34):
I mean we might.
Speaker 2 (12:35):
We're gonna let you say it on his social media page.
Speaker 5 (12:38):
At rob b Bros.
Speaker 2 (12:41):
Yeah, but if you read the comments, he's getting destroyed.
Speaker 3 (12:46):
People are giving them the business. They're definitely given the business.
Speaker 5 (12:50):
That's a great phrase, giving him the business.
Speaker 4 (12:52):
Remember that was it a referee that give a penalty
for the business sex n offers.
Speaker 3 (13:00):
He's giving him the business, giving him the business. We're
giving Round Parker the business.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Although we understand right because you got to balance out
your and your budget. What a cheap skate. This guy
spends money. You should see his sneakers. He comes in
and he's rocking his weak ass low budget sandwich. He
he's the guy sitting on a plane eating those sticking
up the airplane. That's hard, but.
Speaker 5 (13:23):
Think about it. Everyone's got that thing.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
You know.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
You definitely know a guy that's buying a thousand dollars
golf club, but he like he won't buy sneaker he
buys like generic sneakers, but he has every golf club
he has with one thousand dollars, so you see it
all the time. Any examples, Hey, we'll chop it up
at Covino and Rich. Now coming up, we have midweek
(13:47):
major Spot's going to give you the hottest stories in
the world of sports and entertainment. But I do have
one quick hypothetical for you guys. Nothing to really do
with sports, but I am I said, i am going
to New York this Friday. I'm so excited to see.
Speaker 2 (14:01):
Remember to pack your reduced price sandwiches.
Speaker 4 (14:03):
I'm gonna I'm gonna see. I'm gonna see if they
have what's a good thing. Do you think they might
have some three day old salmon at the supermarket I
can bring on the.
Speaker 3 (14:10):
Plane with overwhelmed? Yeah, yeah, did you.
Speaker 5 (14:13):
Guys have Do you guys have any sushi?
Speaker 4 (14:15):
You know, like bargain sushi at the local store. So
I'm flying to New York because we did the All
Star Game. We didn't know we were doing that. So
my wife is flying from Los Angeles with the kids.
We're having a fun week fun long weekend in New York.
We're back next week. I arrive at the airport two
(14:35):
hours before my family. Their flight got a little delayed.
Do I have to hang at the airport and wait
for them? Or do I just or do I just pack?
Speaker 2 (14:45):
You have two rug rats if your wife is rolling
solo woman.
Speaker 5 (14:51):
At the hotel, but because she got the two kids.
Speaker 2 (14:53):
With her, all the bags and everything, Yeah, find the
massage place in the airport.
Speaker 5 (15:00):
Do they do the Oh no, do like a re
legitim massage.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
It was a joke.
Speaker 5 (15:05):
But yeah, two hours and watch Oh you know what
I'll do?
Speaker 4 (15:07):
Maybe I'll watch a quarterback on Netflix, or sit around,
Maybe go to bar.
Speaker 5 (15:14):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (15:14):
Did you finish squid Game?
Speaker 3 (15:16):
I did? Oh you did?
Speaker 2 (15:17):
Yeah? Yeah, I don't know. Go to the Can you
go see Superman come back?
Speaker 5 (15:21):
I'm just gonna be sitting at JFK.
Speaker 4 (15:22):
So if you if you're a JFK to and you
see me sitting around like a dope, I think.
Speaker 2 (15:26):
You have to have yeah, because you know what that
gets doing. Your wife's not one of those, but it's
it's the type of thing that gets down in your face.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Yeah. And I had the kids.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
And all the bags and you went home.
Speaker 5 (15:38):
Yeah, I guess. I guess I won't go Hotel.
Speaker 2 (15:41):
Seven ninety nine on Fox. We're going to chime in
on that.
Speaker 4 (15:43):
Well, you know people are chiming in. Let's say hi
to Dan in Michigan. Dan, you're all with Kevin and
rich In for DP. We were just you know, making
fun of our buddy Rob Parker giving him the business.
What do you save money on? But yet you're willing
to spend on something else? What do you got buddy?
Speaker 7 (15:56):
Hey guys, I'll tell you what I always spend money on.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
I will ever not pay for the fast passes at
Disney Universal, et cetera.
Speaker 2 (16:07):
Than dude.
Speaker 4 (16:08):
I'm telling you I did that for the first time
a while back. And I'm not saying I'm not acting
like a baller, But if you do have the money
to spend that you put away for a vacation with
your kids, you.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
Have to reserve those at Disney now though right like
a few days before, like time it out, but can't
just roll up with the fast pass.
Speaker 4 (16:24):
But yeah, they like a day or so in event.
But there's something a lightning pass at Disney. It's called
like the Lightning Extreme or something whatever it was.
Speaker 3 (16:32):
It was.
Speaker 4 (16:33):
It was overpriced. But if you got little kids and
you could skip every line. I don't think there's a
price tag on that. I think that I think that
is that is absolutely something.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Reduced lightning pass two dollars and seventy cents.
Speaker 5 (16:49):
I ain't paying.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
Ron Parker probably has.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
All right, Well, your thoughts will get your feedback at
Covin and Rich.
Speaker 5 (16:58):

leg to the theme park? You know how?

his own big giant lollipops because the ones at Disney
are too expensive. He brings his own candy Apple.
Speaker 5 (17:27):

people hitting us up about the things they're cheap about.
Speaker 2 (20:23):
Verse, So you're cheap on your sneakers. I wear Nike
dunks or goodbye Nike dunks at like a discount store, right, Rich,
I don't have two hundred and fifty dollars rare Jordan's
like regular Jordan's are like one hundred and ten to
one hundred and thirty.
Speaker 5 (20:42):
That's what I spend on sneakers.
Speaker 2 (20:44):
You know, I'm not saying that you should, but if
you're working hard, you know, the the shoes on your
feet are like the tires on your car. They're important.
Some people are showy guys like you. Let's go to
Dan in Michigan.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
What's up?
Speaker 2 (20:58):
The hear Max nineties? They're not anything extravagant and.
Speaker 5 (21:01):
Good for you and your shoes. Dan with somebody Johnny
in Michigan. What's up?
Speaker 3 (21:07):
Johnny?
Speaker 1 (21:09):
Guys?
Speaker 9 (21:09):
How we doing?
Speaker 3 (21:10):
Good Man? What's up?
Speaker 9 (21:12):
Then?
Speaker 7 (21:12):
You guys, you guys got an incredible show first and foremost, Man,
I've been I've been listening to you guys are like
you guys are like rock stars. I tried calling in
on a contest you guys had but didn't work out.
But that's a lot of announcing for for like professional sports,
amateur sports and uff man and so I have no
problem getting like memorabilia, boxing gloves, you know, thousand bucks
(21:34):
or five hundred dollars or or you know, sports cards
or whatnot. Man, I will be damn if I'm gonna
pay the price that they want for silverware and plates.
So I go off and I buy plastic sporks and
I wash them, and I get kind of irritated when
my daughters throw me in the trash, but I'll go.
Speaker 2 (21:53):
You know, you're talking to Rich Davis, who steals them from.
Speaker 3 (22:00):
Pantry. Yeah, he's he's a trash pack. Rich is a
trash back.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
You know what, can we rename the title of this discussion?
Rich is a trash back? He David Rich plastic forks
and spoons the knie from Chipotle. And that's why your
prices are so high. That's why they charged you four
dollars a couple. Because Rich Davids, I go to Chipotle
like twice a week. Right, it's my favor hold on,
(22:25):
it's my favorite go to. I spend a lot of
money there. Doesn't give you the right.
Speaker 5 (22:29):
And if I go there and instead of grabbing two.
Speaker 2 (22:31):
Forks my wife and I, I grab a handful five
to ten and I can doesn't compile them. So when
we have teachers, because you're a handsome guy with a
goofy smile doesn't make it okay.
Speaker 3 (22:41):
I'm sorry. They wouldn't.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
I would never get away with that. They'd stop me
at the door. That's BS and you know it BS Baracas.
Speaker 3 (22:47):
Rich Day just.
Speaker 5 (22:47):
Say because you're Latino, they'd stopped I.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
Got arresting, has nothing? Did I say that or did
you say that? It's just it could be my demeanor.
But just because you smile and point like shoote McGavin
and wink somebody on the way, that doesn't give you
the right to steal handfuls of plastic silverware. At Chipotle,
things are free, they're not stealing. So there's another one.
Rich cuts the corners on that.
Speaker 3 (23:11):
I have a hack for you. Yogurt Land.
Speaker 6 (23:14):
In places like that, they give they give away Rich
one or two to how many yogurts you buy, But
the frozen yogurt spoons are those like really solid plastic ones,
the good ones. Yeah, I know, And we don't throw
those away. They go in the dishwasher.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
They last for They're great for your little kids. You know.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
He's got a two.
Speaker 5 (23:30):
Year old and yogurt lands.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
You know what Our last caller did make me think
of something else too, though not only that Rich Davis's trash,
because he does that all the time. But if you
work in a certain industry, right like we work in
music and sports broadcasting, it's tough for me to shell
out on certain ticket prices because I know how easy
well it used to be to get your hands on
(23:54):
some when you work in the business, right, So sometimes
you're always looking for that deal on those tickets. Like
sometimes I refuse to pay that much money for a
concert ticket. I'm like, man, God bless the people that do.
Speaker 4 (24:06):
I can't do it, no matter how successful people become.
I can never understand people. I get when you get
upgraded and points and miles and all that, But people
that willingly buy first class tickets or only stay at
like the top hotels like.
Speaker 5 (24:24):
To me, perks bro. Sometimes sometimes a hotel is a hotel. Like,
if I'm just with you on a trip.
Speaker 6 (24:30):
I know you're sounding like Ben Maller. Okay, you guys
gave Okay. Ben Mallard from Fox Sports Radio is famous
for spending.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
Nothing on hotels.
Speaker 6 (24:41):
And when I ask him about bed bugs, He's like, ah, that, no,
there's not there's not bed budgs problems everywhere.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
And I'm like, that's what you think, bro.
Speaker 6 (24:48):
I don't want to I don't want to go on
a like a guy's trip with him because he won't
chip in for a nice hotel.
Speaker 3 (24:55):
Stays in a ten outside the West Well.
Speaker 2 (24:57):
And the reason we're here is because we were given
Parker the business because he takes old rotten sandwiches onto
the airplane because he gets them at discount reduced prices
at the grocery store and refuses to pay sixteen dollars
a sandwich. So the question was is he smart or
a cheap skate? And what do you cut corners on?
Eric will wrap with him in Vegas?
Speaker 5 (25:17):
What's up?
Speaker 3 (25:17):
Eric?
Speaker 9 (25:18):
Hey, guys, hoy you doing? I got a great one.
You're gonna love you for this. So I find furniture
and thank us and stuff like that I live in
summol it here in Las Vegas in the scenarios, so
people tend to throw away things that are pretty new
on the regular. So what I'll do is an overhaul day.
I'll drive around the neighborhood and I'll find stuff maybe
(25:39):
people threw away they use a couple of times that
might have broke, and I'll scan the two OL codes
and make a warranty claim on it and get a branding.
One meal to me freak, oh you're.
Speaker 3 (25:49):
You know what?
Speaker 4 (25:50):
I had one that I recently changed my mind because
we could all evolve, right, we can all evolve, thanks
for Sharon.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
But I used to be the guy. I was the
king of the cheap gas station phone charger.
Speaker 5 (26:02):
And then I'm like, you know what what or like.
Speaker 4 (26:06):
The cheap ass phone case the last upgrade I got
on my phone like a year ago, I was like,
all right, let me get a big boy charger at
the Apple store and a nice case with the magnet
and everything, And you know what, It made me realize
how much I wasted on just continuously buying these crappy
ten dollar chargers, like buy the power charger, buy a
nice phone case with the magnet, on the back and
(26:29):
it might cost you triple the amount, but it'll last you.
Speaker 5 (26:33):
So there's things were all cheap on. I agree it sucks.
Speaker 2 (26:36):
All right, so hey continue giving rob the business.
Speaker 4 (26:40):
What about underwear? Because you want to make sure your
undergarments are nice? But are you willing to buy like
Sacks or Tommy John or these nice like or are
you buying like cheap Haynes.
Speaker 2 (26:53):
What does Tommy John have to do with this?
Speaker 3 (26:55):
Stop it all right?
Speaker 2 (26:56):
Anyway, thank you guys for hanging out with us. Buy
some nice toonies if you're trying to impress your lady.
And it's time for mid Week Major.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Let's go Covino and Rich get you over the middle
of the week. When mid Week Major. I love that
we throw sports and pop culture headlines and topics at
the fellas and it's like the kids.
Speaker 3 (27:21):
Say, that's summit.
Speaker 10 (27:22):
We definitely major.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
See in our score mid Week Major.
Speaker 6 (27:29):
I gotta go really quick here so we can get spotty.
Speaker 3 (27:31):
Seven full minutes to me, I'm gonna stay home.
Speaker 6 (27:35):
We're guessing Atlanta's iHeart Studio. I have no red love
dice here, But what I did I wrote a number
down between one and ten Coveno go first, boy stinking
hard on its not.
Speaker 5 (27:47):
That hard number eight.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
I wanted to pick a nice brand over we live
in the same stupid brain, I wrote that all three
of us.
Speaker 6 (27:54):
Live in the same stupid fat Oh.
Speaker 3 (27:58):
My god, one one hundred. We have to do this again.
Speaker 11 (28:01):
Rich goes first, all right, and now, ladies and gentlemen,
the most famous person from Scotch Points, New Jersey besides
Judy Bloom Spotty down four.
Speaker 4 (28:12):
Minutes because we have to pick a number, I mean,
Steve Young, Garrett car Here we go.
Speaker 10 (28:18):
Quickly, all right, since riches first, Pete Alonzo, I'll start
with him. It's All Star week. Obviously a lot of
headlines in the news with that. But Pete Alonso has
a suggestion for MLB that might anthems things.
Speaker 5 (28:28):
Up even more than they already are.
Speaker 10 (28:31):
So during this week's festivities, he was asked one rule
he'd changed given the opportunity at MLB, and without hesitation,
he said that pictures and hitters should be able to
fight each other like they do in the NFL NHL
say that hitters shouldn't be objected for charging the mound
or fighting.
Speaker 3 (28:48):
He said it should be hockey styles.
Speaker 10 (28:49):
So no, teams know nothing, because that's when people can
get hurt. If you want to go out and charge
the mound, you should be able to, but you have
the option to take a knee. If you don't want
to fight, you could just stop set out. But if
you charge, someone charges them mount. It's one versus one
hot style. So if a polar bear Peak could take over,
that's what he would do.
Speaker 2 (29:06):
Maybe, dude, this is major and I'll tell you why.
Speaker 4 (29:10):
Because he's the polar Bear. He would whoop everyone's ass.
People would think twice about throwing Pete high and tight.
Pete Alonzo also is I'm a Mets fan. He's one
of the most lovable goons there are, so if anyone
was gonna say this, I feel like Pete's the guy.
But listen, baseball's hot right now, it's popping, so add
some fights to it.
Speaker 5 (29:30):
Now you're talking, you know.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
It's major and it sounds silly, but I think he's
really onto something here, because what makes it dangerous Everybody
running out there could turn into.
Speaker 3 (29:42):
A full on brawl.
Speaker 2 (29:44):
Ninety nine percent of the time it's a it's a
nothing burger and everyone just runs out there to say
what's up? But yeah, take matters into your own hands.
The one weird thing is taking a knee, because man,
who's gonna do that. You're gonna get criticized for the
rest of you.
Speaker 4 (29:57):
Look show Tani and you do it in like an
honorable way.
Speaker 2 (30:01):
Like is he's such a friendly guy, one on one
sort of match. I'm the type of guy that'll watch
any fight. I'm excited about Pakiao this week.
Speaker 5 (30:09):
Hed.
Speaker 3 (30:09):
Yeah, so you're the guy. Sign me up for this.
Speaker 2 (30:11):
We all love a good baseball brawl, but if it's
a one on one thing, I'm all for it. I
think he's really honest. It makes it safer because if
you're gonna.
Speaker 10 (30:18):
Throw it me, let's go all right over the WNBA
two stories there. So the Athletic known for its a
anonymous player polls across multiple leagues, while they've finally conducted
their anonymous player poll the WNBA and asked the biggest
question on everyone's mind, and that's who do they think
the face of the league will be within the next
five years, And a whopping fifty three point eight percent
(30:40):
of players answered who you might expect? No, not three
times Sportswoman of the Rangel race. It's actually the Fever's
own Caitlin Clark. Behind her was US he star Juju
Watkins with seventeen point nine percent and Wings rookie Page
Beckers with fourteen point one percent. Some of the anonymous
comments about Clark include quote she's clear already a dradge,
(31:01):
but she's and she still has room to improve as
a player, with another one saying that she is quote
currently the face of the league already, so despite not
being the best player. Evident that she's moving the needle
with things. So maybeker major, I mean a mid that's
because we knew this already.
Speaker 4 (31:17):
But I'm wondering the other the forty six point two
percent of players that didn't vote for Kaitlyn Clark, Like,
what are they watching?
Speaker 5 (31:25):
What numbers are they looking at?
Speaker 2 (31:26):
It's clear that when Kaitlyn Clark doesn't play, oh, when
Kaitlyn Clark is injured or something happens, they've moved games
Canino to bigger arenas because of Kaitlyn Clark. For her
not to be the answer, you're just tone deaf in
your own sport. I think it's major, because again Rich
said it, forty six point two percent of the league
(31:47):
is still hating on her still.
Speaker 5 (31:49):
Hating, still don't acknowledge the reality.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
Give me a break, but maybe there is a point
I'll give. I'll throw the button there, the big dumper
in there, because I mean, she just got hurt again. Yeah,
we don't oh what the future looks like? I mean,
is it going to be a health.
Speaker 3 (32:02):
Issue moving forward?
Speaker 2 (32:03):
Now? The other players don't know?
Speaker 4 (32:04):
The other players mentioned Juju Watkins and Page Beckers. They're
great young athletes. But if you're asking who the face
of the league is, like, that's not even like a question.
It would be like saying that you don't believe Otani
and Judger like the faces of baseball.
Speaker 5 (32:18):
Come on, get with it.
Speaker 10 (32:20):
My dad would get with it. Carroll is the butt
of the all right. So Shaq also getting some headlines
along the lines of wnba Hey stepping up to defend
Caitlin Clark's rival Angel Reese by sending a very stern
warning to RG three. So during an appearance on the
Off the Record podcast, Shack went on a rant about
(32:41):
RG three reposting a racist meme of Reese on.
Speaker 3 (32:44):
His ex page.
Speaker 10 (32:45):
Shaq took off his glasses, stared into the camera, and
said directly at RG three if you posts another meme
like that, he's going to quote punch you in your.
Speaker 3 (32:54):
F and face.
Speaker 10 (32:55):
Okay, it's enough, He acknowledged he usually doesn't do stuff
like that, but to leave Angel Reese alone, he said
he even devised Reese against even responding or commenting about
RG three's post. RGI three yet to respond to any
of this. Well, but we'll see how it grows.
Speaker 3 (33:09):
Maybe ker major.
Speaker 5 (33:10):
I mean I think it's major.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
Shack said he was going to punch RG three the faith,
But RG three, r G three and Shack just why
not have it like the you know, celebrity pre cards
to the next Jake Paul fight. I'm sure right for
Sugar Shane mostly I'll fight RG three.
Speaker 4 (33:29):
I mean, to be on Shack's bad side is weird
because I feel like Shack's such a lovable guy.
Speaker 5 (33:32):
So RG three, good luck with that.
Speaker 3 (33:34):
Double grolsmer.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
It's a little misleading to the story because it's not
like RG three posted he reaped the race.
Speaker 3 (33:42):
He reposted it and.
Speaker 2 (33:44):
Sort of defended Angel Reese in a backwards way and
then made it about him, and you know, it was
kind of taken out of context. It was a really
weird sort of post by r G three. But I
love the fact that Shack is saying and he'll punch
them in the nose because I love drama and I
love fights.
Speaker 3 (34:02):
I already said that, Yeah, bring it to the ring.
Speaker 10 (34:04):
Let's go all right, if you're trying to land a
beautiful woman, like, we'll go back to the WNBA. Like
WNBA star Cameron Brink may want to head back to
English class. So in the latest episode of Brings podcast
Straight to Cam she was discussing the topic of X.
I know we all love that term X with her
teammate deer Could Camby and nets Terce Terrence Man. Brings said,
(34:25):
maybe it's the Stanford girl and me. But grammar is
very important to me, and if I see something with
bad grammar or someone misspells something, it really irks me.
Speaker 3 (34:34):
So grammar her big turn.
Speaker 4 (34:36):
Dude, I think it's mad because we all have quote X,
we just don't call them X. Like there's a trend
now where younger women are like, I'm not gonna shave
my legs and armpits. That's my that's disgusting. WHOA, But
Cameron Brink is a lots of listen. I had a
buddy that wants dumped a howt girl because they were
at a restaurant and she kept saying shrimps plural instead
of shrimp.
Speaker 3 (34:56):
Scrimps, shrimps.
Speaker 2 (34:58):
Cearly she wasn't that hot then, Because if that's going
to be the deal breaker, I mean, grammar is important,
if you know, I mean.
Speaker 3 (35:04):
I mean it's important.
Speaker 2 (35:04):
But if she's a smoke show and she says shrimps,
I think you'll make a pass. What if she says
d ers too, Yeah, I think I think he'll overlook that.
Speaker 3 (35:12):
Yeah, it's a mid story.
Speaker 2 (35:14):
I agree with rich because everybody does have I hate
the word, but preferences. No, I think grammar's important though, exactly.
Speaker 5 (35:26):
All right, hey, fake spot.
Speaker 10 (35:28):
Okay, what was the last one wants going to be about?
Nick Sirianni defend defending hurts but he's still doing that
Super Bowl, still doing rental cars. Yeah, Hurst's good Brady
and his electric cars.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
All right.
Speaker 4 (35:45):
Well, Hey, we're gonna wrap with some NFL there's a
story about one of your favorite NFL hot shots from
the past twenty years, the guy that we thought might
have blew up the league but he sort of fell flat.
We'll get to that and a little more NFL. Next,
before you get out of here in for Dan Patrick,
your butts, Cavino and rich.
Speaker 1 (36:05):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio and the iHeartRadio WAPP.
Speaker 2 (36:15):
It's the world famous CNR show. World famous, never heard
of him, Cavino and Rich In for Dan Patrick. I
say world famous because perhaps you saw our television appearance
at the home run Derby bushwhacking in left field, Bushwhacker Boys,
arm Back. We're live right now from the iHeart Studios
in Atlanta. Pickleball is booming and Tyrol is leading the charge.
(36:40):
Tyroll makes a shoe built for pickleball with a rugged
vibrum outsole that outlast tennis shoes, more comfort, grip and
game Tyrol t y ro L remember the name. Play Longer,
move quicker, and look like a pro at tyroll pickleball
dot Com. All right now, before you get out of here,
(37:01):
a little dose of NFL because the reality is NFL.
As much as we're hanging from baseball, NFL's king and
as we get closer to the season, the speculation about
every quarterback, every team who's doing what predictions we've talked
about already.
Speaker 5 (37:18):
Who are the top ten quarterbacks?
Speaker 2 (37:19):
Is Aaron Rodgers going to take the Steelers to the
next level?
Speaker 5 (37:22):
Is he done?
Speaker 4 (37:23):
Could Jalen Hurts, you know, do this all again? Like
there are the Niners? Is their window closed? Like every
day there's stories it just we all know that before
you know it, this is going to be the day
to day daily conversation. And a guy that you probably
thought you were going to watch play a little bit
more than you did in the NFL. Johnny Manzel was
(37:43):
on the Impulsive podcast Yeah.
Speaker 6 (37:46):
Jake Paul asked Johnny football if he could have been
one of the all time greats. I don't know about
one of the all time greats, but I definitely could
have been a person that played in the NFL for
eight to ten years. Menzel said, I had a lot
of talent, a lot of ability that I know special.
Speaker 5 (38:01):
And I can't disagree with that sentiment.
Speaker 2 (38:02):
Totally agree with him.
Speaker 4 (38:03):
I mean, I don't think anyone ever doubted like Johnny
Manzel's talent. I think they they questioned, much like a
JaMarcus Russell, they questioned, can you put it all together?
Speaker 5 (38:12):
In the NFL? Because it's not he had discipline.
Speaker 2 (38:14):
He could have been like Baker Mayfield, you don't think,
like the same sort of scrappy makeup. If he wasn't
his own worst enemy, tripping on his own cleats and
getting in his own way. I think so if he
had a certain level of discipline, he could have had
a solid career. I truly believe that.
Speaker 3 (38:31):
See the biggest what if of NFL qbs, he's one
of them. There's a lot of them.
Speaker 4 (38:35):
There's a lot of big what ifs are pal Joe Bimel,
former baseball pitcher. He played around the league on a
bunch of teams for over a decade. I saw him
recently put out a video. You know, younger people asking
Joe he does a baseball clinic, bimele athletics. I saw
him saying, kids ask what does it take to make
it to the bigs? And he's like, of course talented,
(38:56):
then talent and genetics is so that's a big part
of it. But you got to want to put the
work in. And when you think you're put enough work in,
you're not putting enough work in. Like you got to
put the work in and be so disciplined what you
hate and just want it more than the next guy.
Speaker 9 (39:17):
Right.
Speaker 4 (39:17):
He said, there's been guys that way more talent than
him that didn't even make the bigs because they didn't
have what it took. And I saw my boy, Francisco
Lindor interviewed at the All Star Game and someone asked
him about what keeps you motivated? And he's like, I'll
be honest, I don't think in terms of motivation, because
motivation comes and goes. I'm disciplined because you could be
(39:39):
motivated one day, have an off day, a bad day,
a great day, good. But Lindor, you know, leads to preparedness, consistence,
and consistency.
Speaker 2 (39:48):
Yeah, he's absolutely right. It's an interesting answer, but he's right. Lindor,
Like what motivation comes and goes, it goes through phases.
Sometimes you have it, sometimes you don't. Sometimes you don't
want to get out of bed. But as Mike Tyson said,
that's when discipline kicks in. Sometimes I don't want to
get out of bed.
Speaker 3 (40:05):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:05):
Do you think Floyd Mayweather as much as may lover
hate that guy? You think Mayweather wanted to train every
morning at five am, running the streets for miles and
miles and Miles.
Speaker 5 (40:14):
And no, it's the discipline.
Speaker 2 (40:16):
But Johnny Manziel is definitely one of the top answers
when it comes to the what ifs. What if he
had the discipline, what if he was able to continue
his career? You know, I think len Bias is another
top answer that always comes up, and that might be
the number one answer Derek Rose, because the what ifs
are there for him even though he had a great career.
It's like, man, what if he didn't get injured? Right
because he was coming on strong, But what if len
(40:39):
Bias had not passed away? Probably the whole dynamic of.
Speaker 4 (40:42):
The NBA change for a decade plus, That might be
the number one answer.
Speaker 5 (40:46):
Right, We'll see you guys when we're back.
Speaker 11 (40:48):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (40:49):
We're back on Tuesday at a regular time, two to
four on the West, five to seven on the East,
right here on Fox Sports Radio. Appreciate you guys. Have
a great rest of your Wednesday. Baseball kicks off again
on Friday.
Speaker 3 (40:58):
I three with there you may make you and the
Promised Land have a good one, guys,
