random women have had in your life. Cavino, Have women
gotten you into something and you're like, oh, you know what,
she really did get me involved?
Speaker 4 (01:15):
You know what it is?
Speaker 3 (01:16):
The things you do for love, the things you do
for your significant other.
Speaker 4 (01:20):
Women, for the.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Most part, put up with a lot with our sports
obsessions and our habits. And I actually have a story
about this. Rich, forget about Kelsey. I'm supposed to hearing
about those guys. No offense, I say that respectfully, But
I did some crazy stuff for my girlfriend, in fact,
in Lake Tahoe, for my girlfriend paying respect to her
(01:42):
grandma who passed away. Live from Lake Tahoe. Never been
here ever. Hey, what's going on? Heyah, yeah, we're gonna talk. Hey,
I'm Tahoe Boy.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
I usually call you Taco boy.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
No, no, Tahoe boy. So the things you do for
your significant other? Will talk some baseball. Every one Wednesday
on our show, we do something called mid Week Major.
It's the biggest stories in the world of sports and
pop culture. But are those stories mid like the kids
say week or major? Headlines will break that down and
we play a game giveaway prizes. It's called Big Mike's
(02:16):
Wednesday Words of Wisdom. Rich, We're gonna turn this hump warning,
this hump day into a hump night.
Speaker 4 (02:22):
Just keep it here.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
I don't even know what that means, yeah, Covino and
Rich on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
So, Hey, congrats to your boy Pete Alonzo.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
You know, I wanted to start with that real quick,
and I do want to talk about show Hey, Tony.
He had a wild twenty four to forty eight hours.
There was a triple play, there was what we thought
would be a game winning home run and just doesn't
work out the way show Hey wanted and the Dodgers wanted.
That division is now tied with like forty games to go,
(02:53):
Padres and Dodgers.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
Who kid as for anything more?
Speaker 2 (02:56):
That looks awesome out west, So we'll Talktani. Aaron Rodgers
is bitching and complaining about something, so we'll talk about him.
A lot to get to but real quick, I know
it's my team, but I I had a question for
you when you saw the Highland.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
I'm sure you've seen it.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Pete Alonzo hitting home run number two fifty three.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
And Pete Trims won a deep right center field headed
back toward the.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
Wall of hair.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
Head of hair, Peter Alonzo stands alone the polar Bear
on his own private iceberg.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Peter Alonzo the most prolific home run hitter in New
York Mets history. Yeah, Polar Bear, Pete On an Iceberg
of his own, and Gary Cohen and of course the
enthusiastic call. But as a Mets fan, I loved it.
I soaked it up. He hit another one after that.
But do you think that's a bit dramatic for I mean,
(03:54):
they stopped the game down it was at City Field.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
I loved it, But.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
I mean two hundred and fifty three home just makes
you realize there hasn't really been that awesome of a
Met No, and.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
You nailed it.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
That's exactly what I was gonna say. When you have
so few highlights as an organization. Now, when you go
back to City Field previously, Shay, it was like going
back into a time warp, into a time zone. It
was like going back to eighty six because that's the
last time they won. You're still seeing highlights of Keith
(04:26):
Hernandez and Darryl Strawberry, Dot Good and rain Knight, Tim Tuff,
all those guys and any other highlights they had let's
say twenty fifteen or the Subway series. It didn't amount
to anything much. So you gotta lean into these as
an organization. And who better than Peter A Lonzo. You
mean the guy they stiffed and drug along all off
(04:49):
season and what he's done is remarkable because he's a goofball,
I guess, or a big dope or I don't know
how you view the guy. I don't think he gets
the respect he deserves the respect. That and Judge Gats
or a show. Hey Gats. He's played seven years and
he has two hundred and fifty four home runs now.
His rookie year twenty nineteen fifty three domes, then an
(05:13):
off year with sixteen he didn't play as many games.
He played fifty seven games that year, thirty seven home runs,
forty home runs, forty six thirty four. He now has
twenty eight home runs. And again he did this for
the Mets in seven years.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
And keep it Mindary just said one of those years
was the COVID year, So like that, you know, it
could be it could be two seventy five right now.
Have had that not been the case, you know exactly,
he would have crushed Darryl Strawberry's numbers. And by the way,
who did he beat. It's also a big deal because
of who he beat, and Darryl Strawberry to the Mets
(05:49):
is everything. Darryl Strawberry, just for the record for stats
Baseball Reference, Daryl Strawberry played seventeen years in the Bigs
hit three fifty three, but for like four five different teams.
With the Mets, he hit two hundred and fifty two
home runs in eight years. So again, Pete Alonso's de
(06:09):
New Mets home run king did it a year less
and finally gets a little bit of the credit he's
deserved for.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
A long long time.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
I think, yeah, look, I'm the first guy that wants
to dump on your Mets. But I think that is
something you lean into. I think you stop the game.
I think you give him proper credit, you give him
a standing ovation, you let him lean into the moment.
Congrats me and I think that's really really cool, Rich.
I think it's a big moment for your team.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Couple curtain calls, and again, I want to make this
less about my Mets, because I know we're on in
LA and other big cities, but New York. You know
we're not on in New York this morning. But I
will say this, buddy boy, when you see your team play,
and I saw this last time with my Mets, but
this applies to anyone, basketball, football, baseball, hockey, hot dog game.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
You know, all the major sports.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yeah, when you see your team play to its full potential,
is it sometimes aggravating because you know they're capable that.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
Let me give you an analogy.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
You know, when you're on vacation sounds terrible, Well, you know,
like the WiFi breaks out like some lingerie and some
crazy moves in the bedroom, or your kids really behave,
or like your coworkers pull their weight and you're.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
Like, you could be doing this all the time. What
are we doing?
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Like when an album is put out by a band
you like and it's really good and you're like, then,
why was your last album a stinker? There's something to
be said when you see your team putting out full
effort and being awesome.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
It also happens at work, not just in the bedroom. Yeah,
at the office. I said that.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
You know, sometimes sometimes you're like what is this guy doing?
Or things don't seem to be functioning on all cylinders.
But then some days everything's just right. Everybody's stepping out
and playing their part, and you're like, that's it. That's
the magic, that's the chemistry, that's the way it's supposed
to be.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Is that what fans get by on? Is that what
bosses and husbands and wives do. We just all get
by sometimes. I'm not trying to get all philosophical, but
do we all get by a lot of times on
knowing that?
Speaker 4 (08:19):
Man? But they have so much potential.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Like I look at the Mets last night and for
a team that is now like five six games behind
the Phillies, they've stunk it up.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
But when you see.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Nimo lindor Alonzo Soto everyone contributing, and you're like that,
that's it.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
Do that again tomorrow night?
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Or when, like I said, when your kids are really
well behaved on a little weekend trip and you're like,
see when you listen to mom and dad eh, or
your coworkers, like I said, pull their weight on the
group project or the sales meeting or something, You're like,
you know, I see that you could do it.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
Why don't you do it all the time?
Speaker 6 (08:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (08:59):
I don't know, man, I wish I had the answer
to that.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
That is the beauty and wonderment and confusion of sports.
Chemistry doesn't last forever. Chemistry is not permanent. Some days
better than others, because again, bioarrhythms, moods. Everybody's different on
every day. But if you're able to step up and
you're able to put that in the bottle when it
(09:22):
matters like playoffs or big broadcasts or moments in life
or vacation sex. Like you said, yeah, I guess that's
what we hope for and strive for. It can't be
every day. That's just how life is, ups and downs.
Speaker 6 (09:34):
That true.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Now, speaking on a side note, yep, I was gonna say,
rich and I have a bet a thousand dollars bet
Mets and Yankees, and it seems like every time your
Mets lose, my Yankees lose, and every time the Yankees win,
the Mets win.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
They're half a game within each other right now, which
is crazy to think, but neither team could find that chemistry.
And you see it sometimes you're like, there it is,
there's and that's just life. So you know, baseball is
life or something like that. Now, that was going on
in New York last night after you out here on
(10:11):
the West Coast.
Speaker 4 (10:12):
The Dodgers were.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Playing down in Anaheim, and I had somebody random buddies
hit me up and they like, yo, did you see
the triple play, and you tell you, tell me it's
not exciting to see a triple play in Major League Baseball.
I'll kick in the ass un tell you you're wrong,
because when shows up with two on no outs and
you're like, oh, what an opportunity, the Dodgers are wronging
(10:34):
Danny g you're a Dodgers fan, you were probably thinking, oh,
Tani's up with two on TI game?
Speaker 4 (10:40):
What you couldn't ask or anything more?
Speaker 7 (10:43):
Well, earlier in the game, as you call him Confardo,
Confardo was up with the basis loaded, How was that
guy in the lineup every day? No offensom series of
swell fella. But Michael Confardo continues to get stars on
the Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
It goes back to what you said, the potentials there,
it's just he can't do it on an consistent basis.
Speaker 7 (11:04):
And a lot of this falls on the front office
rich because Dave Roberts hands are tied somewhat. Who's he
gonna put in there instead of Confordo? But Dodger fans
are super frustrated with him because it seems like anytime
he comes up in a moment that should be hopefully
where he has a clutch moment, it doesn't end up
that way. He pushed the count to be full, and
(11:26):
I'm thinking, please just walk, please just walk a run
in and know he's struck out.
Speaker 4 (11:31):
Dude, when you're rooting for your.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Guy the way you do for the crappy kid at
the end of the little league lineup, like just walk,
come on, just walk, I'm not a good sign that
guy should not be your everyday player.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
I think rich and you know this because he played
for your Mets.
Speaker 7 (11:45):
The front office they air on the side of, well,
he might heat up and we don't want to dfa
him out and then he'll heat up for some other team.
That's that's probably what they're thinking, even though it's probably
the line.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
Listen, man, I'm not in the business of being in
a hal to someone for no reason. But when Canford
Oh was on the Mets, I remember him passing up
get this, Danny, because you see this guy now every day.
At one point and could you know you remember this?
He said, yeah, no thanks. The Mets offered him five years,
one hundred million, twenty million a year for five years,
(12:21):
a five year, one hundred million dollar deal.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
And he was like, yeah, no, I'm good.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
I'll I'll test this out, and no other team really
so he has been trying ever since.
Speaker 7 (12:34):
And as far as show, hey, it looked like he
went from hitting into a triple play, which seems like
the Dodgers do that every season for summery. I remember
them hitting into a triple play last season. Uh two,
that was the sixth inning to the ninth inning, he
steps up and just crushes a bomb, puts the Dodgers ahead.
All they had to do was, you know, hold on
(12:55):
to that lead in the bottom of the night. They couldn't,
and so it went to extras and you saw what happened.
The Angels pulled it out in extra innings. And that
means with what the Padres are doing, it is now
tied up in the NL West and Friday night in
Los Angeles, the Dodgers and the hated Padres play each other.
Speaker 4 (13:14):
That's what I say. That rivalry, Yes, you.
Speaker 7 (13:16):
Guys know, one of the better new newer rivalries in
all of baseball.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
Dude, it's awesome.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
And even if you don't care much about the Dodgers
of Padres, this weekend, my goodness, you got to be
checking that out a little bit. With that division tied
like I said, with forty games to go, it's it
doesn't get more exciting than that.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
But the triple play, who fell at first base?
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Saying it for the whole year, baseball's popping. These are
the highlights that stand out between Alonzo and this triple
play and how close everything is. I know you want
to talk about football because we're twenty three days away,
but you got to lean into these moments. Oh, don't
forget welcoming great for the past season and a half
and Coveno. We talked about what the Brewers are doing.
(14:01):
On yesterday's show. We talked to pocket pancakes and they
stay hot. They beat up on Paul Skeins. I mean,
the paces look unbeatable in moments. Let me ask you
this cove when you when you see a triple play
and Otani is part of it.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
And by the way, who fell at first base?
Speaker 6 (14:26):
Yo?
Speaker 4 (14:26):
He looked at that. That made even better. He fell did?
They fell on his ascid first base trying to get back.
He looked. It was scary for a second he took
a fall.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
I was glad that he was okay, Like, oh, that dude,
that home run Otani hit that you thought was gonna
be the game winner. I'm not trying to be dramatic.
He crushed that ball. Otani is one of those guys
and when he gets it, he gets it, and that
ball was smoked. And again, it's just when you're when
(14:58):
your team can't find the way to clar is out
a game, Danny, It's it's like Kevino said the other days,
it sometimes feels contagious, like the yips, like those losing
ways just starts spreading through the through the team.
Speaker 7 (15:11):
I mean, they've battled so many injuries that we taught.
We've talked about that throughout the season, but you got
to rise above it. But it's also on the front
office of these teams to do something at the trade deadline.
The Dodgers did last year and it helped them get
to the World Series and win the World Series. This year,
they sat on their hands, watched the Padres and make
all those moves and right now, honestly, that's what's setting
(15:32):
the Padres apart.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Yeah, injuries definitely hurt the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
But back to what Rich said too with the show,
hey hit, some guys just have a different sound off
the crack of their bat show. Hey, I had to
be I didn't hear it rich in spot, but and
Danny had to be over one hundred and ten miles
per hour exit velocity easy the way he crushed that ball.
And the only other guy that comes to mind, you
would think it's Judge is not Judge is Jehan carl Stanton.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Dude, when he hits it, I mean, he just destroys it.
I saw John Carlow hit standing over his career hit
home runs that looked like it could be a It
looks like a line drive that just clears the shortstop.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
Yet it just keeps going, it goes out of the ballpark.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
When he was a dude, I mean early like Marlin
turning Yankee Stanton like like, you know, a little while ago,
when he was in his primo days, he still could
do it. He's he's still probably on a daily basis,
his top five exit velocity every night, but stands a beast.
Speaker 7 (16:34):
Oh I'm sorry, Kovie, And I was just gonna point
out it's notable that California Love Show. Hey hit that
off of Kenley Jansen, the you know, infamous former Dodger closer.
So that was an extra hype moment for Dodger fans
until the bottom of the ninth.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
I was gonna say, Jian Carlo just clubs him, Dude.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
I don't know if his bat speed, strength, power, the
way they connect, but I would say it's show hay stand.
I would actually say a Stanton then show hey, and
just from the eye test rich and exit velocity. When
we were at the home run derby watching O'Neill Cruz
hit bombs, it was like the man amongst men like
(17:14):
it was insane to see the difference of the pop
on his back. Some guys show he got one of those.
So some guys could rip the ball. Other guys just
separate themselves. And O'Neill Cruz show, Hey, John, Carlos stan
there's guys that just hit the ball. It's just a
little harder than everyone else. But hey, baseball's popping.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Football is back twenty three days till opening day and
opening kickoff. I do want to talk about Aaron Rodgers
a little bit. I want to talk about the Cowboys,
Kelsey and Taylor shift in the news. But I have
an angle that's you know, I'm not caring about her
new album, but it has to do with what you
do for the love. We'll get to all that coming up.
But do you remember, in the beginning of the season,
(17:55):
we all thought the Dodgers were gonna win one hundred
and ten games. The Dodgers have forty games left, forty
two games. Would you say it's a fair statement to say, Danny,
twenty four and eighteen. Yeah, twenty four and eighteen, that
would be You'd be satisfied with twenty four and eighteen.
(18:17):
It might not win the division, but twenty four and
eighteen seems fair.
Speaker 4 (18:21):
The way the team looks right now.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Yeah, twenty four and eighteen gets you to ninety two
and seventy. We were also convinced that this Dodgers team,
it just shows you chemistry, injuries, all these things play
a role. And again, the Dodgers are just too good
to not make the postseason. But we all thought that.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
They were gonna win.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Maybe we speculated with like, yo, could they end up
winning like one hundred and twenty games and beat the
Seattle Mariners record. That was a real conversation. That wasn't
bs We thought that was a possibility. But just to
show that it's not easy to.
Speaker 4 (18:51):
Win one hundred plus baseball games, it's just not It
also shows you that you can't predict anything.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
I mean, we had reason to believe that with their pitching,
pitching stacked every position and all start squad. But you
can't predict, like Rich said, the chemistry, but you can't
predict the injury and what could.
Speaker 4 (19:09):
Go down in the long ass seasons.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Remember we talked about how their number five could be
an ace for a number team, a number any other
team their number five pitchers ace. We talked about how
they're seven, eight to nine in the lineup would be
the heart of the lineup for a lot of lower
level teams.
Speaker 7 (19:24):
Well, a lot of your conversation about them maybe winning
one hundred and ten games was after they signed Blake Snell.
Remember how many which game which start from Snell? Has
been your favorite this year? Rich, he hasn't been on
the field like a lot of the Dodgers pitchers.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
You just got to hope if we just got I
just got back from Vegas, and you'll get that big board.
The Dodgers are still the odds on favorite to win
the World Series. I assume that the Vegas sentiment is
still that the Dodgers will find the way Cavino's that's
the sentiment that listen, come playoff time. I'm they'll have
(20:01):
starting pitching that's healthy enough, plus Mookie Freddie Show. Hey,
it'll be October and they'll just get it done. But
for a team that's the odds on favorite by far
to win the World Series, well, they've proven they could
do it. They're not even leading their division right now,
they're tied. So I mean, we'll see, we'll see what happens,
(20:22):
which is for another reason what makes it so exciting.
Speaker 8 (20:25):
Man.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
All right, well, you don't want it to be that predictable.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
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 app.
Speaker 4 (20:39):
Paually Fools Go here with Tony Foosco.

winning Polly and Tony Foosco Show.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (20:46):
But instead of us telling you how great we are,
here's how Dan Packrick described us when he came on
our show.
Speaker 4 (20:52):
Quick, knowledgeable and funny, opinionated.
Speaker 1 (20:55):
What are you doing interrupting our promo? Yeah, it wasn't
talking about you. You took those clubs totally of context.
Speaker 9 (21:02):
Oh yeah, Well, after this promo I'm gonna take you
out and beat you.
Speaker 4 (21:06):
Let me put this into context. Shut up.

Yeah, anyway, just listen to the Paul and Toni Fusco
Show on Iartradio, Apple Podcasts, oh wherever you get your podcasts.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
Yea, all right, Welcome back to the show Covino and
Rich Monday through Friday, five to seven on the East,
two to four on the West, and always a pleasure
filling in for DP.
Speaker 3 (21:28):
Right now, I'm live from Tahoe, Lake Tahoe and the
rest of the crew. The best team, Well, props to
the dan Ats too, but our team is pretty stellar,
d G.
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Sam. Now you're gonna say the best team the Brewers
because that's a good answer right now. Right Oh the buy.
We got spot on standby with Midweek Major.
Speaker 3 (21:51):
He's on the videos to live from the Fox Sports
Radio studio.
Speaker 4 (21:54):
Real Quick, right quick.
Speaker 3 (21:55):
Pickleball is booming and Tyroll is leading the change and
leading the charge. Tyroll makes the first shoe built for
just pickleball with a rugged vibrum outside that at last
tennis shoes, more comfort, grip and game. Tyrol remember the name.
Play longer, move quicker, and look like a pro At
(22:16):
tyrollpickleball dot Com.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
I'm convinced I would whoop your assid Pickleball. We need
to get involved. I feel like you and I I
need we need.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
To go at it.
Speaker 6 (22:25):
Uh.
Speaker 4 (22:26):
You know what, I'm not opposed to that you and I.
You and I have a Marianna Rivera and have like
an old guy injuries.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
Well not with Tyrol bro you wanna Tyrol.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
That actually ties into our last conversation, like you know
other things. When guys go out to play any sport,
you could see that they haven't bought any new athletic
year in like twenty five years.
Speaker 4 (22:47):
No, yeah, no, no doubt. Of course.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
You know what I want to do. I want to
do Mike's words of Wisdom. And we got a bunch
of Randophone calls as well. People want to talk about landlines,
Clayton Kershaw, all the Rando stuff we've been talking about.
So we get Mike's words of wisdom. Every Wednesday, the
guy that runs this place drops some knowledge.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
I think it's time to do it.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
It's time for the guy that runs this place.
Speaker 7 (23:11):
Just for clarification, guys, Big Mike does not run this place.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
He is not in charge of everything. He has no
power over really anybody here. He does not run this place.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
It's big Mike's Words of Wisdom on a Wednesday.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
I don't know many guys that have been sea blocked
by Gary Coleman, and I don't know many guys that
have been in supermarket sweep, and he's the guy. So
Mike is here to do a live version of Mike's
Words of wisdom.
Speaker 4 (23:45):
Mike, where do you come up with these? By the way,
these things that have gotten you through life?
Speaker 6 (23:49):
Or what? Well? Yeah, I like to condense, you know,
wisdom and knowledge into sayings that can help direct you
in your life.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
I thought he just wrote them and lived by them.
Speaker 6 (24:03):
I do. I live by every single one.
Speaker 4 (24:05):
The number eight seven, seven, nine nine. On Fox. All
you have to do is repeat.
Speaker 2 (24:10):
Mike's the Words of Wisdom verbatim, and you can win
a covene on Rich Fox Sports Radio prize.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
Mike, it's all you.
Speaker 6 (24:18):
It is better to remain silent and be thought a
fool then to run your big fat mouth and remove
all doubt.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
That's a tough one, A great one, but a tough
one to remember.
Speaker 4 (24:34):
I already forgot it, you know. I feel like we
should have him to it just one more time. I
don't know if he remembers it.
Speaker 6 (24:40):
I do, I do, Okay, it is better to remain
silent and be thought a fool, then run your big
fat mouth and remove all doubt.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
Thank you, Mike, Mike, if you want to win a
covene on Rich Fox Sports Radio Pride a Nerve Football
for the football season, and some Fox Sports Radio goodies
eight seven seventy nine to nine on Fox will get
a Winner.
Speaker 4 (25:06):
You got to repeat it verbatim. Thank you, big Mike.
Speaker 6 (25:09):
You got it, guys anytime laated buddy.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
Now, while we get a winner, let's go to your
feedback most interactive show on FSR. Let's start in Kansas
and Chance wants to talk a little Clayton Kershaw.
Speaker 8 (25:19):
What's up, Chance, hey Man, not so much Clayton Kershaw,
but I'm curious saying, you know, he's kind of overlooked.
What about is that Grinky?
Speaker 10 (25:26):
I mean, I feel like he's right at the bottom
of that tier.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Now, Granky is one of those guys that would like
I always respected Zach Greenk. I feel like he was
a big game pitcher. I feel like Zach Greanky is
a great character in baseball. I think if you know,
you know, he's one of those guys. But I think, unfortunately,
because of his personality, it's probably more talked about that
he's an eccentric sort of guy as opposed to how
(25:51):
dominant he was. Granky would do things sometimes where I
felt like he was bored, and he would tell the
hit or what pitch was coming. I'd be like, I'll
challenge you. I'm gonna be throwing a breaking ball right now.
Like I like think the legend is different, Like we
know he's good, but the stories that we tell are
just of how weird he was in his ways. I mean,
two hundred and twenty five wins, yeah, pretty sweet. Cree
(26:13):
career era three four nine. I mean he's officially retired rich, No,
he's not. I mean right, not a double he played
in twenty twenty three. Yeah, but he didn't officially call
it quits.
Speaker 4 (26:25):
Strikeouts. Here's the thing. He is twenty one strikeout shy
of three thousand yo. Just for the good pr some
weakens teams should pick him up and let him get it.
I think I agree completely.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Right, let's go to Colin and Seattle wanted to talk
about landlines.
Speaker 10 (26:45):
What's up, Colin, I'm a millennial forty one years old,
so I haven't had a landline in years, but to
avoid having my kids have a cell phone. My oldest
is eleven, we got a landline, saying, well, that's how
you can get phone calls. Well, we had a sleepover
last night with two of his buddy It's ten thirty
at night and I hear some giggling and in the
phone rings the landline. They pick it up and they
(27:05):
start laughing their butts off. They call again ten minutes later,
laughing their butts off, phones ringing. My mom or my
wife's looks and he's going, aren't you going to do something?
I said, no, this is awesome. This is what it's
all about. Right, So that's why we have a landline.
We avoid the cell phone and we get the fun
kids stuff.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Prank phone calls big part of my childhood, or as
your parents call them, crank phone calls.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
Yeah, thank you, Colin.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
Let's say one more call from Paul and we'll try
to get a winner from mike'swords wisdom. Paul, you're on
the North Carolina Covino on rich In for Dan Patrick.
Speaker 4 (27:33):
What's up?
Speaker 6 (27:34):
Man?
Speaker 8 (27:35):
Hey, good morning fellas. What's up talking about things that
make you feel old. So I run a restaurant and
we're mostly family friendly during the day in the early evening,
but nighttime we kind of turn more into a bar atmosphere.
So I always change our station about nine o'clock. I've
been burned by staff members selling what channels have put
it on. So now when staff members suggests radio stations,
(27:56):
I have to go in the back and google and
YouTube them, make sure they're they're they're they're suitable. Like, damn,
I'm mold man. I have no idea just because they're
listening to it. Yeah, I was when I was a
kid with my parents and just being completely out of
touch with what's happening musically, you know.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
Paul, great example. Also, you work in the restaurant industry,
you said, Richard, you thinking what I'm thinking. The order
of shot or drink.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
Oh, that's a good one, Like, like, I don't know
if anyone's doing the same shots you did in college.
Speaker 4 (28:24):
Like your drink could be very telling of your age.
It's so dated. You know. What goes along with Aaron
Rodgers's helmet?
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Aaron, Yeah, order Aaron Rodgers' helmet with Jaeger bombs right,
or or are.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Girls ordering Amaretto sours or a red Bull vodka? Or
or is our boy Rob Parker so graciously orders? I
love it.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
But when he's like, com a cozie shot, I'm like,
you know who did Kamakazi shots? My girlfriend's in the
early two thousand, Yeah, they date you. I thought he
was gonna say at a restaurant. I was just in
Vegas and my mom's like, where's the menu? I'm like, mom,
scan the QR code like that, you know, the the
idea that a lot of restaurants and cafes and places
(29:10):
that were like, yeah, just scan the scan the code.
Speaker 4 (29:12):
It's it is what it is, right.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Aaron Rodgers refuses, All right, let's get a winner. Mike's
words of wisdom. He drops knowledge. It's really simple, like
if you pay attention, you could even rewind it and
figure it out.
Speaker 4 (29:26):
If you pay attention, you could actually even learn something.
And is that part of this too? Yeah? Learning point.
Let's go to.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
Sean and Connecticut. Sean, if you can repeat Mike's words
of wisdom, you win a prize.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
What's up, buddy boy?
Speaker 11 (29:41):
It is better to remain silent and be thought of
a fool than to run your mouth and remove all doubt.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Oh my god. So I want to give a little
update here.
Speaker 12 (29:55):
Mike actually did it twice, and he actually did it
slightly different. The second time he he left out to
run your big fat mouth. So we'll take that because
that is the second That is the second one Mike did.
So Congratulations man, good job, Sean Man.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
Congratulations buddy, you just won yourself and I owe you,
which is just as good as money.
Speaker 4 (30:19):
And I owe you in the form of a nerve football.
Speaker 3 (30:21):
We're out of inventory, but we're gonna get him in
just in time for foosball for you to enjoy.
Speaker 2 (30:27):
Seasonally, our prizes changed and I think last year having
our Fox Sports Radio could we know rich and their
footballs was a big win.
Speaker 4 (30:33):
So let's let's do those bad boys again. We're gonna switch.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
We're gonna be Yeah, those are I They're gonna be
the like the vortex looking ones though, nice.
Speaker 4 (30:42):
So we gotta They did a glow in the dark. No,
but you know what, I hate the whistle.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
When we were kids, I don't mind the whistle on it,
but I just thought you can't really have a game
of street football with tackle football. If your nerve football
had the tail on it, Oh yeah, that thing would
get ripped off. You could throw that damn thing. You
could throw that thing in ninety yards. But when I
have the little tail on it, I like, can I
was wondering Camino, like, does anyone play with this ball?
(31:09):
Or is it more like CO four? I could throw it. Bro,
that their football stuck. That's an old man toy right there.
Kids don't know eight years you just dated yourself. Bro,
you got any evil Knievel toys you want to talk about?
Speaker 4 (31:20):
Old guy?
Speaker 2 (31:21):
Can I tell you about my night rider race cars? Yeah,
I'm kidding the eighties? What do you want me to
tell you?
Speaker 11 (31:27):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (31:27):
Hey, can I give you an example?
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Let's let's continue football football adjacent kind of Let's talk cowboys.
We got midweek major coming up next, right, the biggest
stories in the world, the sports and pop culture. We
do it every Wednesday, along with Mike's Wednesday Words of Wisdom.
Congrats again Covino and enrich In for Dan Patrick. But
is he your favorite cowboy in the village people? No,
cowboy Curtis from Pee Wee's play who was played by who?
(31:52):
Who knows who? Cowboy Curtis was on Pee Wee's Big Adventure.
What famous actor? Oh, I know, Laurence Fishburg.
Speaker 4 (31:58):
Laurence Fishburn.
Speaker 3 (32:00):
Isn't that amazing? So the Cowboys, Yeah, do they really stink? Well,
now we're gonna get to that. But here's an analogy.
It's fun to make fun of the cowboys, right it is.
But is it as fun when they really stink? Because
they've been pretty good? But pretty good doesn't win you anything.
Pretty good for the past ten twenty years. It's kind
(32:25):
of like your buddy and your jokes with him. Let's
say you call him like, you know, you're big fat so,
but he's really not that fat.
Speaker 4 (32:34):
But then he becomes that fat. It's not funny anymore.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
I agreed, your analogy is spot on, because all the
Cowboys have had a season.
Speaker 4 (32:43):
Here there where there was a quick a quick rebuild.
They have.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
They had one four win season, one six win season.
But you're right for the most part of the last
ten or twenty years. In fact, if you want to
go back, just the last handful of years, twenty twenty one,
they were twelve and five, twenty twenty two, they were
twelve and five, twenty twenty three, they were twelve five.
Speaker 4 (33:00):
Last year they pooped the bed a little bit, they
were seven.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
To ten, but now Vegas has them at over under
seven and a half wins.
Speaker 4 (33:09):
So I think the whole Stephen A.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
Smith sentiment and all the people that love to bust
the plavos of cowboys, fans and the cowboys.
Speaker 4 (33:20):
It's fun to do it when they're good, like when
the cow When.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
The cowboys win twelve games in choke, or they can't
get the job done, that's funny.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
Your analogy is great.
Speaker 6 (33:32):
It's right.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
If your buddy's a little chubby and you call him, hey, fatty,
that's funny. Hey man, he's fluffy, Yo, check out fluffy,
Like that's funny.
Speaker 4 (33:40):
But yo, dude has an issue. It's not funny. Yeah,
telling your actually your friend that's actually overweight.
Speaker 2 (33:47):
You don't say, hey man, you might want to lay
off the tacos. You say that to your buddy who's
put on five pounds. That's what makes it funny. Like
that's just how humor works. Like Rich Davis, he has
an oddly shaped kind of right. So the joke for
years is that man Rich got a big ass head,
and then when people meet him, be like guys, that's
(34:08):
not that big. You're like, yeah, I know, because it's
just the joke. If Rich really did have a Thornton
Mellon Dome, Yeah, Bruce Bochi or Kevin Minch was always
known for having a big, giant head in baseball. If
he had a noggin boss, it wouldn't be as funny.
It'd be more hurtful. Making fun of the Cowboys when
(34:29):
they really stink is kicking them when they're down, more hurtful,
less funny. Because when the Cowboys are good, football's better.
That's why baseball is back, dude. All the good teams
were in it last year and it got everybody hyped,
and you want somebody, smaller market teams to be able
to beat those teams that were in the playoffs. Baseball's better,
whether you like it or not. When the Yankees, the
(34:49):
Dodters and the Mats and the Red Sox, when teams
like that are good, When the Cowboys are struggling like that,
you're like, man.
Speaker 4 (34:55):
It's not funny anymore. It's almost sad.
Speaker 2 (34:58):
Yeah, And I think that's where we're a now because
every year it's fun. When preseason it's like, is this
the year Dak gets over the hump. Is this the
year Dak Prescott shows he's your franchise guy. They win
twelve games and steven A can put on his cowboy
hat and strut in and laugh when they get beating
the wildcard round of the playoffs, or when it's a
(35:20):
key game for the division and they lose in week
seventeen and people are like, cowboys are gonna cowboy and
they pant to the fans of the crowd. Remember that
one dude that was like crying on his girlfriend's shoulder
with like his big cowboys necklace, Like that's fun to
make fun of, not fun to make fun of the
guy that really is struggling.
Speaker 4 (35:42):
Boy, are you fat?
Speaker 2 (35:45):
You know what I hear every time we have a
big party or a public appearance or live broadcast, people
will signed me up and be like, you're not that short,
And I'm like, yeah, cause it's sort of a joke
because they try to get under my skin.
Speaker 4 (35:58):
I'm not a jose out too.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
Maybe compared to other professional athletes or other people in pictures,
I appear short.
Speaker 3 (36:05):
I'm not that sure. If I really was a tiny guy,
nothing wrong with that. If I really was a short
King on that level, it's not funny, it's just hurtful.
Speaker 4 (36:15):
It's just mean. So so jokes are funny when when.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
There's just a little bit of truth to that the
Cowboys might really suck this year. I guess the lesson
to be learned is maybe we don't make fun of
the Cowboys this year.

See it our scoring Midweek Major.
Speaker 7 (37:50):
I gotta go really quick here to give Spotty eight

Speaker 7 (38:10):
You call it in the air? Rich, go tails? Is

big head. That means Coveno gets to go first. And now,
ladies and gentlemen, the most famous person besides Judy Bloom
from Scotch Plains New Jersey Spotty Boy.
Speaker 4 (38:27):
I guys, are you ready? Well, we talked about it already.
Speaker 5 (38:31):
The biggest news of the day is the new podcast
drop of New Heights, featuring Taylor Swift alongside her boyfriend
and brother boyfriend's brother. We've been getting teasered all week,
including a new album announcement.
Speaker 4 (38:43):
Well.
Speaker 5 (38:43):
In the latest tease, Taylor Swift has seen poking fun
at the quote male sports fans who blow a gasket
when Taylor Swift appears on screen during the Cheese Games,
She says, quote, I think we all know there's one
thing that male sports fans want to see in their
spaces and on their screens.
Speaker 4 (39:01):
It's more of me.
Speaker 5 (39:03):
Fans of course are going crazy overseeing Travis and Taylor
being together and noting that it's the first time that
they've seen Taylor and Jason interacs. So people of course
are super excited about this drops later today at seven
pm Eastern Time.
Speaker 4 (39:17):
Midweek or major. Anything Taylor Swift like it or not,
is major.
Speaker 2 (39:22):
It's gonna break all sorts of podcast numbers and records.
And I don't know if this is our first ever
podcast appearance but Taylor Swift on a podcast huge news
and her coming at the football fans and addressing something
that we all experience also major news. But look, in
a football fans defense, it was a little overkilled in
(39:44):
the beginning, a lot of overkill. But most of those
fans that we're complaining are the beer helmet type of fan.
Speaker 4 (39:50):
So I mean, doesn't really matter what they think anyway.
Speaker 2 (39:52):
But I'm glad she's addressing it because it was a thing,
and I think it's major.
Speaker 4 (39:57):
So many people tuning in for this, how could it
not be. It's it's so.
Speaker 6 (40:02):
Major, definitely major.
Speaker 2 (40:04):
The reality is guys are gonna listen to their podcast anyway,
and I see women on social media saying things like
I can't even like, women are gonna listen to this.
It's gonna break records. You could roll your eyes all
you want. I just saw that the Travis Kelcey Jason
Kelsey podcast Instagram page gained three hundred and twelve thousand
(40:27):
new followers since its announcements was made major.
Speaker 4 (40:30):
So it was.
Speaker 2 (40:32):
Crazy just based off of the announcement, they got what
the hundreds of thousand new Instagram followers And it's just
not about like the juice that they're dropping again. The
new album's coming out of all that stuff, it's they're
letting you in on their chemistry and their live interaction.
Speaker 4 (40:48):
That's the thing.
Speaker 2 (40:48):
I mean, as corny as it sounds, we've never really
seen them interact.
Speaker 4 (40:53):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (40:54):
Then there you go again. You're gonna say so you
don't have to like it, but there's a lot of
people that do, and that's major.
Speaker 5 (40:58):
It's gonna be even more iral, you think, yeah, maybe
so probably all right. We always say that we leave
Michael Phelps off the list of goats. Well, the swimming
goat had some fun yesterday by accepting the Baltimore Ravens
invitation for swimming lessons. So members of the team sent
out a plea to Phelps after taking a dip in
their new under Armor Performance Center recovery pool, and Phelps,
(41:20):
being a diehard Baltimore fan, was happy to volunteer. Several
videos released of Phelps with members of the team teaching
them sort of how to navigate the pool. They also
had some friendly competition where they raced. Of course, he
gave them a huge head start and only swam underwater.
After the whole thing, he was asked if any of
the team would be Olympic team worthy, and of course
he said, none of them. Even though they're all great athletes,
(41:42):
none of them would he even make it close to
the Olympic team for swimming. So fun video to check
out on Raven's social midweek or major.
Speaker 4 (41:49):
It's sort of mid. I'm not mad at the story.
Speaker 2 (41:51):
I don't think there's major news, but I do like
the fact that you acknowledge we don't include him in
the Goat conversation and we should. Good dude, the story
just isn't that that booming to me?
Speaker 4 (42:03):
Rich? How about you?
Speaker 2 (42:05):
I think it's a little more than it's. It's midplus.
How about that it's not major? I am and Kimide's right.
Michael Phelps Olympic you know legend. What was the only
bad press he ever got? He was called with weed.
Like Michael Phelps seems like a great fella. And what
I think is cool about this story, kuld you know
is that I love when I see people cross over
(42:27):
to their passions. Like if he's a big Ravens fan,
what a cool moment for him, Like he's still Michael Phelps.
Speaker 4 (42:33):
But if he's a Baltimore Ravens fan.
Speaker 2 (42:34):
If he's able to go there and be like, yeah,
I'll teach the Ravens how to swim.
Speaker 4 (42:38):
I think it's a cool moment for him.
Speaker 5 (42:39):
You know. Yeah, I saw on the screen. I saw
John Burnhall actor John Burenthal. It's hanging out a Commander's
training camp to Yeah, the Punisher himself is a Commanders fan.
We talked to Joe Manganello once and I remember him
the Magic Mike saying that he loves the Steelers more
than anything.
Speaker 13 (42:55):
So it's cool to see two worlds collade rap, wait
when you see that crossover episodes and yeah, and superstars
showing their fandom and it's always.
Speaker 4 (43:06):
Cool, dude.
Speaker 2 (43:07):
I remember Chris Pratt, not to name drop, Chris Pratt
was on a show talking about his love of the
Seahawks one.
Speaker 4 (43:12):
So it's like, I love the crossover. So pretty cool.
Speaker 5 (43:14):
Well, speaking of crossovers and the superstar fandom, actor Denzel
Washington best Actor and Best Actor ever, had some strong
words strong words for Cowboy owner Jerry Jones yesterday during
his appearance on First Take. So Denzel's out promoting his
new Spike Lee movie Highest to Lowest and Denzel a
huge Cowboys fan took his time to call out owner
(43:36):
Jerry Jones for his lingering contract disputes about money. He said, quote,
there's a box office and there's oscars. Jerry been a while, Huh,
ain't been to the show, You wouldn't know what it
is to win. And he said, I love the Cowboys,
really love them, and this is why I feel this way.
Went on to reference the poster of his new movie,
saying all money ain't good money, directing that towards Jerry Jones.
(44:00):
Maybe so, maybe Denzel's trying to work for that Michael
Parsons contract. Get that extension going, so midweek or major.
I think it's major. We talked about the Cowboys today.
Speaker 2 (44:11):
For him to express the feelings of Cowboys fans publicly,
coming from a big actor, the best actor ever, like Denzel,
it says a lot. But I think it's poorly time
because today Jerry Jones announced that he survived stage four
cancer and has no more tumors. So you know, they
might not be winning a lot of games this year,
(44:32):
but he did beat cancer, which included four surgeries, and
he battled for what like ten years, so people are
sort of feeling good for the guy, whether they like
him or not. And today the story comes out that
Denzel's talking smack about him.
Speaker 1 (44:45):
You know what, out Pat?
Speaker 4 (44:46):
That's twenty five thousand dollars Outpat.
Speaker 2 (44:48):
I you know, I agree with you bedtiming, but I
think a mid story because it just shows again. I
think it is cool though, that we do see that
no matter who you are, you have a team in
the fact that he's a Cowboys guy and he's like,
come on, Jerry. I think, like I said before, it's
not as fun when the Cowboys are projected to be mediocre.
(45:09):
It takes away the fun of But when the Cowboys
are good or bad, it there's an angle.
Speaker 4 (45:14):
When they're mediocre, it's gonna stink.
Speaker 6 (45:16):
All right.
Speaker 5 (45:18):
Tom Brady has opened up more about his first year
as a broadcaster heading into year two in just a
few short weeks.
Speaker 6 (45:24):
Can you believe it?
Speaker 8 (45:25):
So?
Speaker 5 (45:25):
Looking back, he said, quote, I had a great year.
I had the best team, and I had so many
teammates that helped me through that first year. He said,
there was a lot of growing pains through the year,
just in terms of prep going on air. Things you
mess up and there's mistakes that he made and it's
a lot like being an NFL quarterback. You said, you
can go out there prepare all you want, but once
you hit a real game, it's like, quote, oh my god,
(45:46):
it's a lot different and a lot faster.
Speaker 4 (45:48):
Where am I looking? What am I doing?
Speaker 5 (45:49):
He said, His weeks go on more and more. He
felt a little bit more comfortable, but he said, you know,
obviously the trickiest part of being a broadcaster is trying
to figure out what the audience wants or expects. So
if you want to see more of the Tom Brady interview,
you can check it out. It's with Joe Klatt on YouTube,
Big Noon Conversations, Midweek or.
Speaker 2 (46:05):
Major, absolutely major, because it's Tom Brady and he's a
goat in his own right, and it's cool to hear
his vulnerability, even though.
Speaker 3 (46:16):
It's hard to say his humility. I guess in this
new situation where even Tom Brady, where everything.
Speaker 2 (46:23):
Seems to come easy for the guy, struggles sometimes and
he put himself in a situation where he's really trying
to get better at this, I think that's cool to
hear for anybody. Yeah, I think it's major because everything,
no matter what it is, it's going to take work
and discipline, right, did you say?
Speaker 4 (46:38):
In a related story, real Quick.
Speaker 2 (46:40):
Drew Brees said that if he were to be an
analyst right now, he would immediately be top three.
Speaker 4 (46:45):
Did you see this?
Speaker 2 (46:47):
It's like the confidence, saying that he has perspective on
the game more so than anyone he could imagine. And
he goes, if I, if I did it right now,
I would immediately be top three. Not to sound selfish,
but I know what I bring, so, like you know,
I love the confidence. So maybe you'll see Drew Brees
before you know it, and then he'll see those Tom
Brady struggles.
Speaker 4 (47:04):
In the beginning, right right.
Speaker 3 (47:06):
Not as easy as it looks. But Drew Brees personable guy. Yeah,
not impossible

Speaker 3 (01:16):
The things you do for love, the things you do
for your significant other.
Speaker 4 (01:20):
Women, for the.
Speaker 3 (01:21):
Most part, put up with a lot with our sports
obsessions and our habits. And I actually have a story
about this. Rich, forget about Kelsey. I'm supposed to hearing
about those guys. No offense, I say that respectfully, But
I did some crazy stuff for my girlfriend, in fact,
in Lake Tahoe, for my girlfriend paying respect to her
(01:42):
grandma who passed away. Live from Lake Tahoe. Never been
here ever. Hey, what's going on? Heyah, yeah, we're gonna talk. Hey,
I'm Tahoe Boy.

I usually call you Taco boy.
Speaker 3 (01:54):
No, no, Tahoe boy. So the things you do for
your significant other? Will talk some baseball. Every one Wednesday
on our show, we do something called mid Week Major.
It's the biggest stories in the world of sports and
pop culture. But are those stories mid like the kids
say week or major? Headlines will break that down and
we play a game giveaway prizes. It's called Big Mike's
(02:16):
Wednesday Words of Wisdom. Rich, We're gonna turn this hump warning,
this hump day into a hump night.
Speaker 4 (02:22):
Just keep it here.
Speaker 3 (02:24):
I don't even know what that means, yeah, Covino and
Rich on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 4 (02:27):
So, Hey, congrats to your boy Pete Alonzo.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
You know, I wanted to start with that real quick,
and I do want to talk about show Hey, Tony.
He had a wild twenty four to forty eight hours.
There was a triple play, there was what we thought
would be a game winning home run and just doesn't
work out the way show Hey wanted and the Dodgers wanted.
That division is now tied with like forty games to go,
(02:53):
Padres and Dodgers.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
Who kid as for anything more?
Speaker 2 (02:56):
That looks awesome out west, So we'll Talktani. Aaron Rodgers
is bitching and complaining about something, so we'll talk about him.
A lot to get to but real quick, I know
it's my team, but I I had a question for
you when you saw the Highland.
Speaker 4 (03:12):
I'm sure you've seen it.
Speaker 2 (03:13):
Pete Alonzo hitting home run number two fifty three.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
And Pete Trims won a deep right center field headed
back toward the.
Speaker 4 (03:22):
Wall of hair.
Speaker 5 (03:24):
Head of hair, Peter Alonzo stands alone the polar Bear
on his own private iceberg.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Peter Alonzo the most prolific home run hitter in New
York Mets history. Yeah, Polar Bear, Pete On an Iceberg
of his own, and Gary Cohen and of course the
enthusiastic call. But as a Mets fan, I loved it.
I soaked it up. He hit another one after that.
But do you think that's a bit dramatic for I mean,
(03:54):
they stopped the game down it was at City Field.
Speaker 4 (03:56):
I loved it, But.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
I mean two hundred and fifty three home just makes
you realize there hasn't really been that awesome of a
Met No, and.
Speaker 4 (04:05):
You nailed it.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
That's exactly what I was gonna say. When you have
so few highlights as an organization. Now, when you go
back to City Field previously, Shay, it was like going
back into a time warp, into a time zone. It
was like going back to eighty six because that's the
last time they won. You're still seeing highlights of Keith
(04:26):
Hernandez and Darryl Strawberry, Dot Good and rain Knight, Tim Tuff,
all those guys and any other highlights they had let's
say twenty fifteen or the Subway series. It didn't amount
to anything much. So you gotta lean into these as
an organization. And who better than Peter A Lonzo. You
mean the guy they stiffed and drug along all off
(04:49):
season and what he's done is remarkable because he's a goofball,
I guess, or a big dope or I don't know
how you view the guy. I don't think he gets
the respect he deserves the respect. That and Judge Gats
or a show. Hey Gats. He's played seven years and
he has two hundred and fifty four home runs now.
His rookie year twenty nineteen fifty three domes, then an
(05:13):
off year with sixteen he didn't play as many games.
He played fifty seven games that year, thirty seven home runs,
forty home runs, forty six thirty four. He now has
twenty eight home runs. And again he did this for
the Mets in seven years.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
And keep it Mindary just said one of those years
was the COVID year, So like that, you know, it
could be it could be two seventy five right now.
Have had that not been the case, you know exactly,
he would have crushed Darryl Strawberry's numbers. And by the way,
who did he beat. It's also a big deal because
of who he beat, and Darryl Strawberry to the Mets
(05:49):
is everything. Darryl Strawberry, just for the record for stats
Baseball Reference, Daryl Strawberry played seventeen years in the Bigs
hit three fifty three, but for like four five different teams.
With the Mets, he hit two hundred and fifty two
home runs in eight years. So again, Pete Alonso's de
(06:09):
New Mets home run king did it a year less
and finally gets a little bit of the credit he's
deserved for.
Speaker 4 (06:17):
A long long time.
Speaker 3 (06:19):
I think, yeah, look, I'm the first guy that wants
to dump on your Mets. But I think that is
something you lean into. I think you stop the game.
I think you give him proper credit, you give him
a standing ovation, you let him lean into the moment.
Congrats me and I think that's really really cool, Rich.
I think it's a big moment for your team.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Couple curtain calls, and again, I want to make this
less about my Mets, because I know we're on in
LA and other big cities, but New York. You know
we're not on in New York this morning. But I
will say this, buddy boy, when you see your team play,
and I saw this last time with my Mets, but
this applies to anyone, basketball, football, baseball, hockey, hot dog game.
Speaker 4 (07:00):
You know, all the major sports.
Speaker 6 (07:01):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (07:02):
Yeah, when you see your team play to its full potential,
is it sometimes aggravating because you know they're capable that.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
Let me give you an analogy.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
You know, when you're on vacation sounds terrible, Well, you know,
like the WiFi breaks out like some lingerie and some
crazy moves in the bedroom, or your kids really behave,
or like your coworkers pull their weight and you're.
Speaker 4 (07:25):
Like, you could be doing this all the time. What
are we doing?
Speaker 2 (07:30):
Like when an album is put out by a band
you like and it's really good and you're like, then,
why was your last album a stinker? There's something to
be said when you see your team putting out full
effort and being awesome.
Speaker 4 (07:44):
It also happens at work, not just in the bedroom. Yeah,
at the office. I said that.
Speaker 3 (07:49):
You know, sometimes sometimes you're like what is this guy doing?
Or things don't seem to be functioning on all cylinders.
But then some days everything's just right. Everybody's stepping out
and playing their part, and you're like, that's it. That's
the magic, that's the chemistry, that's the way it's supposed
to be.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
Is that what fans get by on? Is that what
bosses and husbands and wives do. We just all get
by sometimes. I'm not trying to get all philosophical, but
do we all get by a lot of times on
knowing that?
Speaker 4 (08:19):
Man? But they have so much potential.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
Like I look at the Mets last night and for
a team that is now like five six games behind
the Phillies, they've stunk it up.
Speaker 4 (08:31):
But when you see.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Nimo lindor Alonzo Soto everyone contributing, and you're like that,
that's it.
Speaker 4 (08:37):
Do that again tomorrow night?
Speaker 2 (08:39):
Or when, like I said, when your kids are really
well behaved on a little weekend trip and you're like,
see when you listen to mom and dad eh, or
your coworkers, like I said, pull their weight on the
group project or the sales meeting or something, You're like,
you know, I see that you could do it.
Speaker 4 (08:55):
Why don't you do it all the time?
Speaker 6 (08:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 4 (08:59):
I don't know, man, I wish I had the answer
to that.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
That is the beauty and wonderment and confusion of sports.
Chemistry doesn't last forever. Chemistry is not permanent. Some days
better than others, because again, bioarrhythms, moods. Everybody's different on
every day. But if you're able to step up and
you're able to put that in the bottle when it
(09:22):
matters like playoffs or big broadcasts or moments in life
or vacation sex. Like you said, yeah, I guess that's
what we hope for and strive for. It can't be
every day. That's just how life is, ups and downs.
Speaker 6 (09:34):
That true.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Now, speaking on a side note, yep, I was gonna say,
rich and I have a bet a thousand dollars bet
Mets and Yankees, and it seems like every time your
Mets lose, my Yankees lose, and every time the Yankees win,
the Mets win.
Speaker 2 (09:51):
They're half a game within each other right now, which
is crazy to think, but neither team could find that chemistry.
And you see it sometimes you're like, there it is,
there's and that's just life. So you know, baseball is
life or something like that. Now, that was going on
in New York last night after you out here on
(10:11):
the West Coast.
Speaker 4 (10:12):
The Dodgers were.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
Playing down in Anaheim, and I had somebody random buddies
hit me up and they like, yo, did you see
the triple play, and you tell you, tell me it's
not exciting to see a triple play in Major League Baseball.
I'll kick in the ass un tell you you're wrong,
because when shows up with two on no outs and
you're like, oh, what an opportunity, the Dodgers are wronging
(10:34):
Danny g you're a Dodgers fan, you were probably thinking, oh,
Tani's up with two on TI game?
Speaker 4 (10:40):
What you couldn't ask or anything more?
Speaker 7 (10:43):
Well, earlier in the game, as you call him Confardo,
Confardo was up with the basis loaded, How was that
guy in the lineup every day? No offensom series of
swell fella. But Michael Confardo continues to get stars on
the Dodgers.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
It goes back to what you said, the potentials there,
it's just he can't do it on an consistent basis.
Speaker 7 (11:04):
And a lot of this falls on the front office
rich because Dave Roberts hands are tied somewhat. Who's he
gonna put in there instead of Confordo? But Dodger fans
are super frustrated with him because it seems like anytime
he comes up in a moment that should be hopefully
where he has a clutch moment, it doesn't end up
that way. He pushed the count to be full, and
(11:26):
I'm thinking, please just walk, please just walk a run
in and know he's struck out.
Speaker 4 (11:31):
Dude, when you're rooting for your.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Guy the way you do for the crappy kid at
the end of the little league lineup, like just walk,
come on, just walk, I'm not a good sign that
guy should not be your everyday player.
Speaker 4 (11:42):
I think rich and you know this because he played
for your Mets.
Speaker 7 (11:45):
The front office they air on the side of, well,
he might heat up and we don't want to dfa
him out and then he'll heat up for some other team.
That's that's probably what they're thinking, even though it's probably
the line.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
Listen, man, I'm not in the business of being in
a hal to someone for no reason. But when Canford
Oh was on the Mets, I remember him passing up
get this, Danny, because you see this guy now every day.
At one point and could you know you remember this?
He said, yeah, no thanks. The Mets offered him five years,
one hundred million, twenty million a year for five years,
(12:21):
a five year, one hundred million dollar deal.
Speaker 4 (12:23):
And he was like, yeah, no, I'm good.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
I'll I'll test this out, and no other team really
so he has been trying ever since.
Speaker 7 (12:34):
And as far as show, hey, it looked like he
went from hitting into a triple play, which seems like
the Dodgers do that every season for summery. I remember
them hitting into a triple play last season. Uh two,
that was the sixth inning to the ninth inning, he
steps up and just crushes a bomb, puts the Dodgers ahead.
All they had to do was, you know, hold on
(12:55):
to that lead in the bottom of the night. They couldn't,
and so it went to extras and you saw what happened.
The Angels pulled it out in extra innings. And that
means with what the Padres are doing, it is now
tied up in the NL West and Friday night in
Los Angeles, the Dodgers and the hated Padres play each other.
Speaker 4 (13:14):
That's what I say. That rivalry, Yes, you.
Speaker 7 (13:16):
Guys know, one of the better new newer rivalries in
all of baseball.
Speaker 4 (13:20):
Dude, it's awesome.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
And even if you don't care much about the Dodgers
of Padres, this weekend, my goodness, you got to be
checking that out a little bit. With that division tied
like I said, with forty games to go, it's it
doesn't get more exciting than that.
Speaker 4 (13:37):
But the triple play, who fell at first base?
Speaker 2 (13:39):
Saying it for the whole year, baseball's popping. These are
the highlights that stand out between Alonzo and this triple
play and how close everything is. I know you want
to talk about football because we're twenty three days away,
but you got to lean into these moments. Oh, don't
forget welcoming great for the past season and a half
and Coveno. We talked about what the Brewers are doing.
(14:01):
On yesterday's show. We talked to pocket pancakes and they
stay hot. They beat up on Paul Skeins. I mean,
the paces look unbeatable in moments. Let me ask you
this cove when you when you see a triple play
and Otani is part of it.
Speaker 4 (14:23):
And by the way, who fell at first base?
Speaker 6 (14:26):
Yo?
Speaker 4 (14:26):
He looked at that. That made even better. He fell did?
They fell on his ascid first base trying to get back.
He looked. It was scary for a second he took
a fall.
Speaker 2 (14:34):
I was glad that he was okay, Like, oh, that dude,
that home run Otani hit that you thought was gonna
be the game winner. I'm not trying to be dramatic.
He crushed that ball. Otani is one of those guys
and when he gets it, he gets it, and that
ball was smoked. And again, it's just when you're when
(14:58):
your team can't find the way to clar is out
a game, Danny, It's it's like Kevino said the other days,
it sometimes feels contagious, like the yips, like those losing
ways just starts spreading through the through the team.
Speaker 7 (15:11):
I mean, they've battled so many injuries that we taught.
We've talked about that throughout the season, but you got
to rise above it. But it's also on the front
office of these teams to do something at the trade deadline.
The Dodgers did last year and it helped them get
to the World Series and win the World Series. This year,
they sat on their hands, watched the Padres and make
all those moves and right now, honestly, that's what's setting
(15:32):
the Padres apart.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
Yeah, injuries definitely hurt the Dodgers.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
But back to what Rich said too with the show,
hey hit, some guys just have a different sound off
the crack of their bat show. Hey, I had to
be I didn't hear it rich in spot, but and
Danny had to be over one hundred and ten miles
per hour exit velocity easy the way he crushed that ball.
And the only other guy that comes to mind, you
would think it's Judge is not Judge is Jehan carl Stanton.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
Dude, when he hits it, I mean, he just destroys it.
I saw John Carlow hit standing over his career hit
home runs that looked like it could be a It
looks like a line drive that just clears the shortstop.
Speaker 4 (16:15):
Yet it just keeps going, it goes out of the ballpark.
Speaker 2 (16:18):
When he was a dude, I mean early like Marlin
turning Yankee Stanton like like, you know, a little while ago,
when he was in his primo days, he still could
do it. He's he's still probably on a daily basis,
his top five exit velocity every night, but stands a beast.
Speaker 7 (16:34):
Oh I'm sorry, Kovie, And I was just gonna point
out it's notable that California Love Show. Hey hit that
off of Kenley Jansen, the you know, infamous former Dodger closer.
So that was an extra hype moment for Dodger fans
until the bottom of the ninth.
Speaker 4 (16:50):
I was gonna say, Jian Carlo just clubs him, Dude.
Speaker 3 (16:53):
I don't know if his bat speed, strength, power, the
way they connect, but I would say it's show hay stand.
I would actually say a Stanton then show hey, and
just from the eye test rich and exit velocity. When
we were at the home run derby watching O'Neill Cruz
hit bombs, it was like the man amongst men like
(17:14):
it was insane to see the difference of the pop
on his back. Some guys show he got one of those.
So some guys could rip the ball. Other guys just
separate themselves. And O'Neill Cruz show, Hey, John, Carlos stan
there's guys that just hit the ball. It's just a
little harder than everyone else. But hey, baseball's popping.
Speaker 2 (17:33):
Football is back twenty three days till opening day and
opening kickoff. I do want to talk about Aaron Rodgers
a little bit. I want to talk about the Cowboys,
Kelsey and Taylor shift in the news. But I have
an angle that's you know, I'm not caring about her
new album, but it has to do with what you
do for the love. We'll get to all that coming up.
But do you remember, in the beginning of the season,
(17:55):
we all thought the Dodgers were gonna win one hundred
and ten games. The Dodgers have forty games left, forty
two games. Would you say it's a fair statement to say, Danny,
twenty four and eighteen. Yeah, twenty four and eighteen, that
would be You'd be satisfied with twenty four and eighteen.
(18:17):
It might not win the division, but twenty four and
eighteen seems fair.
Speaker 4 (18:21):
The way the team looks right now.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
Yeah, twenty four and eighteen gets you to ninety two
and seventy. We were also convinced that this Dodgers team,
it just shows you chemistry, injuries, all these things play
a role. And again, the Dodgers are just too good
to not make the postseason. But we all thought that.
Speaker 4 (18:37):
They were gonna win.
Speaker 2 (18:38):
Maybe we speculated with like, yo, could they end up
winning like one hundred and twenty games and beat the
Seattle Mariners record. That was a real conversation. That wasn't
bs We thought that was a possibility. But just to
show that it's not easy to.
Speaker 4 (18:51):
Win one hundred plus baseball games, it's just not It
also shows you that you can't predict anything.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
I mean, we had reason to believe that with their pitching,
pitching stacked every position and all start squad. But you
can't predict, like Rich said, the chemistry, but you can't
predict the injury and what could.
Speaker 4 (19:09):
Go down in the long ass seasons.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Remember we talked about how their number five could be
an ace for a number team, a number any other
team their number five pitchers ace. We talked about how
they're seven, eight to nine in the lineup would be
the heart of the lineup for a lot of lower
level teams.
Speaker 7 (19:24):
Well, a lot of your conversation about them maybe winning
one hundred and ten games was after they signed Blake Snell.
Remember how many which game which start from Snell? Has
been your favorite this year? Rich, he hasn't been on
the field like a lot of the Dodgers pitchers.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
You just got to hope if we just got I
just got back from Vegas, and you'll get that big board.
The Dodgers are still the odds on favorite to win
the World Series. I assume that the Vegas sentiment is
still that the Dodgers will find the way Cavino's that's
the sentiment that listen, come playoff time. I'm they'll have
(20:01):
starting pitching that's healthy enough, plus Mookie Freddie Show. Hey,
it'll be October and they'll just get it done. But
for a team that's the odds on favorite by far
to win the World Series, well, they've proven they could
do it. They're not even leading their division right now,
they're tied. So I mean, we'll see, we'll see what happens,
(20:22):
which is for another reason what makes it so exciting.
Speaker 8 (20:25):
Man.
Speaker 4 (20:26):
All right, well, you don't want it to be that predictable.
Speaker 1 (20:30):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific

Speaker 3 (21:55):
Pickleball is booming and Tyroll is leading the change and
leading the charge. Tyroll makes the first shoe built for
just pickleball with a rugged vibrum outside that at last
tennis shoes, more comfort, grip and game. Tyrol remember the name.
Play longer, move quicker, and look like a pro At
(22:16):
tyrollpickleball dot Com.
Speaker 2 (22:19):
I'm convinced I would whoop your assid Pickleball. We need
to get involved. I feel like you and I I
need we need.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
To go at it.
Speaker 6 (22:25):
Uh.

You and I have a Marianna Rivera and have like
an old guy injuries.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
Well not with Tyrol bro you wanna Tyrol.
Speaker 3 (22:36):
That actually ties into our last conversation, like you know
other things. When guys go out to play any sport,
you could see that they haven't bought any new athletic
year in like twenty five years.
Speaker 4 (22:47):
No, yeah, no, no doubt. Of course.
Speaker 2 (22:49):
You know what I want to do. I want to
do Mike's words of Wisdom. And we got a bunch
of Randophone calls as well. People want to talk about landlines,
Clayton Kershaw, all the Rando stuff we've been talking about.
So we get Mike's words of wisdom. Every Wednesday, the
guy that runs this place drops some knowledge.
Speaker 4 (23:05):
I think it's time to do it.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
It's time for the guy that runs this place.
Speaker 7 (23:11):
Just for clarification, guys, Big Mike does not run this place.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
He is not in charge of everything. He has no
power over really anybody here. He does not run this place.
Speaker 1 (23:21):
It's big Mike's Words of Wisdom on a Wednesday.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
I don't know many guys that have been sea blocked
by Gary Coleman, and I don't know many guys that
have been in supermarket sweep, and he's the guy. So
Mike is here to do a live version of Mike's
Words of wisdom.
Speaker 4 (23:45):
Mike, where do you come up with these? By the way,
these things that have gotten you through life?
Speaker 6 (23:49):
Or what? Well? Yeah, I like to condense, you know,
wisdom and knowledge into sayings that can help direct you
in your life.
Speaker 4 (24:00):
I thought he just wrote them and lived by them.
Speaker 6 (24:03):
I do. I live by every single one.
Speaker 4 (24:05):

you have to do is repeat.

Mike's the Words of Wisdom verbatim, and you can win
a covene on Rich Fox Sports Radio prize.
Speaker 4 (24:15):
Mike, it's all you.
Speaker 6 (24:18):
It is better to remain silent and be thought a
fool then to run your big fat mouth and remove
all doubt.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
That's a tough one, A great one, but a tough
one to remember.
Speaker 4 (24:34):
I already forgot it, you know. I feel like we
should have him to it just one more time. I
don't know if he remembers it.
Speaker 6 (24:40):
I do, I do, Okay, it is better to remain
silent and be thought a fool, then run your big
fat mouth and remove all doubt.
Speaker 2 (24:54):
Thank you, Mike, Mike, if you want to win a
covene on Rich Fox Sports Radio Pride a Nerve Football
for the football season, and some Fox Sports Radio goodies
eight seven seventy nine to nine on Fox will get
a Winner.
Speaker 4 (25:06):
You got to repeat it verbatim. Thank you, big Mike.
Speaker 6 (25:09):
You got it, guys anytime laated buddy.
Speaker 2 (25:11):
Now, while we get a winner, let's go to your
feedback most interactive show on FSR. Let's start in Kansas
and Chance wants to talk a little Clayton Kershaw.
Speaker 8 (25:19):
What's up, Chance, hey Man, not so much Clayton Kershaw,
but I'm curious saying, you know, he's kind of overlooked.
What about is that Grinky?
Speaker 10 (25:26):
I mean, I feel like he's right at the bottom
of that tier.
Speaker 2 (25:29):
Now, Granky is one of those guys that would like
I always respected Zach Greenk. I feel like he was
a big game pitcher. I feel like Zach Greanky is
a great character in baseball. I think if you know,
you know, he's one of those guys. But I think, unfortunately,
because of his personality, it's probably more talked about that
he's an eccentric sort of guy as opposed to how
(25:51):
dominant he was. Granky would do things sometimes where I
felt like he was bored, and he would tell the
hit or what pitch was coming. I'd be like, I'll
challenge you. I'm gonna be throwing a breaking ball right now.
Like I like think the legend is different, Like we
know he's good, but the stories that we tell are
just of how weird he was in his ways. I mean,
two hundred and twenty five wins, yeah, pretty sweet. Cree
(26:13):
career era three four nine. I mean he's officially retired rich, No,
he's not. I mean right, not a double he played
in twenty twenty three. Yeah, but he didn't officially call
it quits.
Speaker 4 (26:25):
Strikeouts. Here's the thing. He is twenty one strikeout shy
of three thousand yo. Just for the good pr some
weakens teams should pick him up and let him get it.
I think I agree completely.
Speaker 2 (26:40):
Right, let's go to Colin and Seattle wanted to talk
about landlines.
Speaker 10 (26:45):
What's up, Colin, I'm a millennial forty one years old,
so I haven't had a landline in years, but to
avoid having my kids have a cell phone. My oldest
is eleven, we got a landline, saying, well, that's how
you can get phone calls. Well, we had a sleepover
last night with two of his buddy It's ten thirty
at night and I hear some giggling and in the
phone rings the landline. They pick it up and they
(27:05):
start laughing their butts off. They call again ten minutes later,
laughing their butts off, phones ringing. My mom or my
wife's looks and he's going, aren't you going to do something?
I said, no, this is awesome. This is what it's
all about. Right, So that's why we have a landline.
We avoid the cell phone and we get the fun
kids stuff.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Prank phone calls big part of my childhood, or as
your parents call them, crank phone calls.
Speaker 4 (27:25):
Yeah, thank you, Colin.
Speaker 2 (27:27):
Let's say one more call from Paul and we'll try
to get a winner from mike'swords wisdom. Paul, you're on
the North Carolina Covino on rich In for Dan Patrick.
Speaker 4 (27:33):
What's up?
Speaker 6 (27:34):
Man?
Speaker 8 (27:35):
Hey, good morning fellas. What's up talking about things that
make you feel old. So I run a restaurant and
we're mostly family friendly during the day in the early evening,
but nighttime we kind of turn more into a bar atmosphere.
So I always change our station about nine o'clock. I've
been burned by staff members selling what channels have put
it on. So now when staff members suggests radio stations,
(27:56):
I have to go in the back and google and
YouTube them, make sure they're they're they're they're suitable. Like, damn,
I'm mold man. I have no idea just because they're
listening to it. Yeah, I was when I was a
kid with my parents and just being completely out of
touch with what's happening musically, you know.
Speaker 4 (28:13):
Paul, great example. Also, you work in the restaurant industry,
you said, Richard, you thinking what I'm thinking. The order
of shot or drink.
Speaker 2 (28:20):
Oh, that's a good one, Like, like, I don't know
if anyone's doing the same shots you did in college.
Speaker 4 (28:24):
Like your drink could be very telling of your age.
It's so dated. You know. What goes along with Aaron
Rodgers's helmet?
Speaker 2 (28:32):
Aaron, Yeah, order Aaron Rodgers' helmet with Jaeger bombs right,
or or are.
Speaker 4 (28:39):
Girls ordering Amaretto sours or a red Bull vodka? Or
or is our boy Rob Parker so graciously orders? I
love it.
Speaker 2 (28:49):
But when he's like, com a cozie shot, I'm like,
you know who did Kamakazi shots? My girlfriend's in the
early two thousand, Yeah, they date you. I thought he
was gonna say at a restaurant. I was just in
Vegas and my mom's like, where's the menu? I'm like, mom,
scan the QR code like that, you know, the the
idea that a lot of restaurants and cafes and places
(29:10):
that were like, yeah, just scan the scan the code.
Speaker 4 (29:12):
It's it is what it is, right.
Speaker 2 (29:15):
Aaron Rodgers refuses, All right, let's get a winner. Mike's
words of wisdom. He drops knowledge. It's really simple, like
if you pay attention, you could even rewind it and
figure it out.
Speaker 4 (29:26):
If you pay attention, you could actually even learn something.
And is that part of this too? Yeah? Learning point.
Let's go to.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
Sean and Connecticut. Sean, if you can repeat Mike's words
of wisdom, you win a prize.
Speaker 4 (29:38):
What's up, buddy boy?
Speaker 11 (29:41):
It is better to remain silent and be thought of
a fool than to run your mouth and remove all doubt.
Speaker 4 (29:51):
Oh my god. So I want to give a little
update here.
Speaker 12 (29:55):
Mike actually did it twice, and he actually did it
slightly different. The second time he he left out to
run your big fat mouth. So we'll take that because
that is the second That is the second one Mike did.
So Congratulations man, good job, Sean Man.
Speaker 3 (30:12):
Congratulations buddy, you just won yourself and I owe you,
which is just as good as money.
Speaker 4 (30:19):
And I owe you in the form of a nerve football.
Speaker 3 (30:21):
We're out of inventory, but we're gonna get him in
just in time for foosball for you to enjoy.
Speaker 2 (30:27):
Seasonally, our prizes changed and I think last year having
our Fox Sports Radio could we know rich and their
footballs was a big win.
Speaker 4 (30:33):
So let's let's do those bad boys again. We're gonna switch.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
We're gonna be Yeah, those are I They're gonna be
the like the vortex looking ones though, nice.
Speaker 4 (30:42):
So we gotta They did a glow in the dark. No,
but you know what, I hate the whistle.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
When we were kids, I don't mind the whistle on it,
but I just thought you can't really have a game
of street football with tackle football. If your nerve football
had the tail on it, Oh yeah, that thing would
get ripped off. You could throw that damn thing. You
could throw that thing in ninety yards. But when I
have the little tail on it, I like, can I
was wondering Camino, like, does anyone play with this ball?
(31:09):
Or is it more like CO four? I could throw it. Bro,
that their football stuck. That's an old man toy right there.
Kids don't know eight years you just dated yourself. Bro,
you got any evil Knievel toys you want to talk about?
Speaker 4 (31:20):
Old guy?
Speaker 2 (31:21):
Can I tell you about my night rider race cars? Yeah,
I'm kidding the eighties? What do you want me to
tell you?
Speaker 11 (31:27):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (31:27):
Hey, can I give you an example?
Speaker 2 (31:28):
Let's let's continue football football adjacent kind of Let's talk cowboys.
We got midweek major coming up next, right, the biggest
stories in the world, the sports and pop culture. We
do it every Wednesday, along with Mike's Wednesday Words of Wisdom.
Congrats again Covino and enrich In for Dan Patrick. But
is he your favorite cowboy in the village people? No,
cowboy Curtis from Pee Wee's play who was played by who?
(31:52):
Who knows who? Cowboy Curtis was on Pee Wee's Big Adventure.
What famous actor? Oh, I know, Laurence Fishburg.
Speaker 4 (31:58):
Laurence Fishburn.
Speaker 3 (32:00):
Isn't that amazing? So the Cowboys, Yeah, do they really stink? Well,
now we're gonna get to that. But here's an analogy.
It's fun to make fun of the cowboys, right it is.
But is it as fun when they really stink? Because
they've been pretty good? But pretty good doesn't win you anything.
Pretty good for the past ten twenty years. It's kind
(32:25):
of like your buddy and your jokes with him. Let's
say you call him like, you know, you're big fat so,
but he's really not that fat.
Speaker 4 (32:34):
But then he becomes that fat. It's not funny anymore.
Speaker 2 (32:37):
I agreed, your analogy is spot on, because all the
Cowboys have had a season.
Speaker 4 (32:43):
Here there where there was a quick a quick rebuild.
They have.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
They had one four win season, one six win season.
But you're right for the most part of the last
ten or twenty years. In fact, if you want to
go back, just the last handful of years, twenty twenty one,
they were twelve and five, twenty twenty two, they were
twelve and five, twenty twenty three, they were twelve five.
Speaker 4 (33:00):
Last year they pooped the bed a little bit, they
were seven.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
To ten, but now Vegas has them at over under
seven and a half wins.
Speaker 4 (33:09):
So I think the whole Stephen A.
Speaker 2 (33:13):
Smith sentiment and all the people that love to bust
the plavos of cowboys, fans and the cowboys.
Speaker 4 (33:20):
It's fun to do it when they're good, like when
the cow When.
Speaker 2 (33:25):
The cowboys win twelve games in choke, or they can't
get the job done, that's funny.
Speaker 4 (33:31):
Your analogy is great.
Speaker 6 (33:32):
It's right.
Speaker 2 (33:33):
If your buddy's a little chubby and you call him, hey, fatty,
that's funny. Hey man, he's fluffy, Yo, check out fluffy,
Like that's funny.
Speaker 4 (33:40):
But yo, dude has an issue. It's not funny. Yeah,
telling your actually your friend that's actually overweight.
Speaker 2 (33:47):
You don't say, hey man, you might want to lay
off the tacos. You say that to your buddy who's
put on five pounds. That's what makes it funny. Like
that's just how humor works. Like Rich Davis, he has
an oddly shaped kind of right. So the joke for
years is that man Rich got a big ass head,
and then when people meet him, be like guys, that's
(34:08):
not that big. You're like, yeah, I know, because it's
just the joke. If Rich really did have a Thornton
Mellon Dome, Yeah, Bruce Bochi or Kevin Minch was always
known for having a big, giant head in baseball. If
he had a noggin boss, it wouldn't be as funny.
It'd be more hurtful. Making fun of the Cowboys when
(34:29):
they really stink is kicking them when they're down, more hurtful,
less funny. Because when the Cowboys are good, football's better.
That's why baseball is back, dude. All the good teams
were in it last year and it got everybody hyped,
and you want somebody, smaller market teams to be able
to beat those teams that were in the playoffs. Baseball's better,
whether you like it or not. When the Yankees, the
(34:49):
Dodters and the Mats and the Red Sox, when teams
like that are good, When the Cowboys are struggling like that,
you're like, man.
Speaker 4 (34:55):
It's not funny anymore. It's almost sad.
Speaker 2 (34:58):
Yeah, And I think that's where we're a now because
every year it's fun. When preseason it's like, is this
the year Dak gets over the hump. Is this the
year Dak Prescott shows he's your franchise guy. They win
twelve games and steven A can put on his cowboy
hat and strut in and laugh when they get beating
the wildcard round of the playoffs, or when it's a
(35:20):
key game for the division and they lose in week
seventeen and people are like, cowboys are gonna cowboy and
they pant to the fans of the crowd. Remember that
one dude that was like crying on his girlfriend's shoulder
with like his big cowboys necklace, Like that's fun to
make fun of, not fun to make fun of the
guy that really is struggling.
Speaker 4 (35:42):
Boy, are you fat?
Speaker 2 (35:45):
You know what I hear every time we have a
big party or a public appearance or live broadcast, people
will signed me up and be like, you're not that short,
And I'm like, yeah, cause it's sort of a joke
because they try to get under my skin.
Speaker 4 (35:58):
I'm not a jose out too.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
Maybe compared to other professional athletes or other people in pictures,
I appear short.
Speaker 3 (36:05):
I'm not that sure. If I really was a tiny guy,
nothing wrong with that. If I really was a short
King on that level, it's not funny, it's just hurtful.
Speaker 4 (36:15):
It's just mean. So so jokes are funny when when.
Speaker 2 (36:18):
There's just a little bit of truth to that the
Cowboys might really suck this year. I guess the lesson
to be learned is maybe we don't make fun of
the Cowboys this year.

ladies and gentlemen, the most famous person besides Judy Bloom
from Scotch Plains New Jersey Spotty Boy.
Speaker 4 (38:27):
I guys, are you ready? Well, we talked about it already.
Speaker 5 (38:31):
The biggest news of the day is the new podcast
drop of New Heights, featuring Taylor Swift alongside her boyfriend
and brother boyfriend's brother. We've been getting teasered all week,
including a new album announcement.
Speaker 4 (38:43):
Well.
Speaker 5 (38:43):
In the latest tease, Taylor Swift has seen poking fun
at the quote male sports fans who blow a gasket
when Taylor Swift appears on screen during the Cheese Games,
She says, quote, I think we all know there's one
thing that male sports fans want to see in their
spaces and on their screens.
Speaker 4 (39:01):
It's more of me.
Speaker 5 (39:03):
Fans of course are going crazy overseeing Travis and Taylor
being together and noting that it's the first time that
they've seen Taylor and Jason interacs. So people of course
are super excited about this drops later today at seven
pm Eastern Time.
Speaker 4 (39:17):
Midweek or major. Anything Taylor Swift like it or not,
is major.
Speaker 2 (39:22):
It's gonna break all sorts of podcast numbers and records.
And I don't know if this is our first ever
podcast appearance but Taylor Swift on a podcast huge news
and her coming at the football fans and addressing something
that we all experience also major news. But look, in
a football fans defense, it was a little overkilled in
(39:44):
the beginning, a lot of overkill. But most of those
fans that we're complaining are the beer helmet type of fan.
Speaker 4 (39:50):
So I mean, doesn't really matter what they think anyway.
Speaker 2 (39:52):
But I'm glad she's addressing it because it was a thing,
and I think it's major.
Speaker 4 (39:57):
So many people tuning in for this, how could it
not be. It's it's so.
Speaker 6 (40:02):
Major, definitely major.
Speaker 2 (40:04):
The reality is guys are gonna listen to their podcast anyway,
and I see women on social media saying things like
I can't even like, women are gonna listen to this.
It's gonna break records. You could roll your eyes all
you want. I just saw that the Travis Kelcey Jason
Kelsey podcast Instagram page gained three hundred and twelve thousand
(40:27):
new followers since its announcements was made major.
Speaker 4 (40:30):
So it was.
Speaker 2 (40:32):
Crazy just based off of the announcement, they got what
the hundreds of thousand new Instagram followers And it's just
not about like the juice that they're dropping again. The
new album's coming out of all that stuff, it's they're
letting you in on their chemistry and their live interaction.
Speaker 4 (40:48):
That's the thing.
Speaker 2 (40:48):
I mean, as corny as it sounds, we've never really
seen them interact.
Speaker 4 (40:53):
That's it.
Speaker 2 (40:54):
Then there you go again. You're gonna say so you
don't have to like it, but there's a lot of
people that do, and that's major.
Speaker 5 (40:58):
It's gonna be even more iral, you think, yeah, maybe
so probably all right. We always say that we leave
Michael Phelps off the list of goats. Well, the swimming
goat had some fun yesterday by accepting the Baltimore Ravens
invitation for swimming lessons. So members of the team sent
out a plea to Phelps after taking a dip in
their new under Armor Performance Center recovery pool, and Phelps,
(41:20):
being a diehard Baltimore fan, was happy to volunteer. Several
videos released of Phelps with members of the team teaching
them sort of how to navigate the pool. They also
had some friendly competition where they raced. Of course, he
gave them a huge head start and only swam underwater.
After the whole thing, he was asked if any of
the team would be Olympic team worthy, and of course
he said, none of them. Even though they're all great athletes,
(41:42):
none of them would he even make it close to
the Olympic team for swimming. So fun video to check
out on Raven's social midweek or major.
Speaker 4 (41:49):
It's sort of mid. I'm not mad at the story.
Speaker 2 (41:51):
I don't think there's major news, but I do like
the fact that you acknowledge we don't include him in
the Goat conversation and we should. Good dude, the story
just isn't that that booming to me?
Speaker 4 (42:03):
Rich? How about you?
Speaker 2 (42:05):
I think it's a little more than it's. It's midplus.
How about that it's not major? I am and Kimide's right.
Michael Phelps Olympic you know legend. What was the only
bad press he ever got? He was called with weed.
Like Michael Phelps seems like a great fella. And what
I think is cool about this story, kuld you know
is that I love when I see people cross over
(42:27):
to their passions. Like if he's a big Ravens fan,
what a cool moment for him, Like he's still Michael Phelps.
Speaker 4 (42:33):
But if he's a Baltimore Ravens fan.
Speaker 2 (42:34):
If he's able to go there and be like, yeah,
I'll teach the Ravens how to swim.
Speaker 4 (42:38):
I think it's a cool moment for him.
Speaker 5 (42:39):
You know. Yeah, I saw on the screen. I saw
John Burnhall actor John Burenthal. It's hanging out a Commander's
training camp to Yeah, the Punisher himself is a Commanders fan.
We talked to Joe Manganello once and I remember him
the Magic Mike saying that he loves the Steelers more
than anything.
Speaker 13 (42:55):
So it's cool to see two worlds collade rap, wait
when you see that crossover episodes and yeah, and superstars
showing their fandom and it's always.
Speaker 4 (43:06):
Cool, dude.
Speaker 2 (43:07):
I remember Chris Pratt, not to name drop, Chris Pratt
was on a show talking about his love of the
Seahawks one.
Speaker 4 (43:12):
So it's like, I love the crossover. So pretty cool.
Speaker 5 (43:14):
Well, speaking of crossovers and the superstar fandom, actor Denzel
Washington best Actor and Best Actor ever, had some strong
words strong words for Cowboy owner Jerry Jones yesterday during
his appearance on First Take. So Denzel's out promoting his
new Spike Lee movie Highest to Lowest and Denzel a
huge Cowboys fan took his time to call out owner
(43:36):
Jerry Jones for his lingering contract disputes about money. He said, quote,
there's a box office and there's oscars. Jerry been a while, Huh,
ain't been to the show, You wouldn't know what it
is to win. And he said, I love the Cowboys,
really love them, and this is why I feel this way.
Went on to reference the poster of his new movie,
saying all money ain't good money, directing that towards Jerry Jones.
(44:00):
Maybe so, maybe Denzel's trying to work for that Michael
Parsons contract. Get that extension going, so midweek or major.
I think it's major. We talked about the Cowboys today.
Speaker 2 (44:11):
For him to express the feelings of Cowboys fans publicly,
coming from a big actor, the best actor ever, like Denzel,
it says a lot. But I think it's poorly time
because today Jerry Jones announced that he survived stage four
cancer and has no more tumors. So you know, they
might not be winning a lot of games this year,
(44:32):
but he did beat cancer, which included four surgeries, and
he battled for what like ten years, so people are
sort of feeling good for the guy, whether they like
him or not. And today the story comes out that
Denzel's talking smack about him.
Speaker 1 (44:45):
You know what, out Pat?
Speaker 4 (44:46):
That's twenty five thousand dollars Outpat.
Speaker 2 (44:48):
I you know, I agree with you bedtiming, but I
think a mid story because it just shows again. I
think it is cool though, that we do see that
no matter who you are, you have a team in
the fact that he's a Cowboys guy and he's like,
come on, Jerry. I think, like I said before, it's
not as fun when the Cowboys are projected to be mediocre.
(45:09):
It takes away the fun of But when the Cowboys
are good or bad, it there's an angle.
Speaker 4 (45:14):
When they're mediocre, it's gonna stink.
Speaker 6 (45:16):
All right.
Speaker 5 (45:18):
Tom Brady has opened up more about his first year
as a broadcaster heading into year two in just a
few short weeks.
Speaker 6 (45:24):
Can you believe it?
Speaker 8 (45:25):
So?
Speaker 5 (45:25):
Looking back, he said, quote, I had a great year.
I had the best team, and I had so many
teammates that helped me through that first year. He said,
there was a lot of growing pains through the year,
just in terms of prep going on air. Things you
mess up and there's mistakes that he made and it's
a lot like being an NFL quarterback. You said, you
can go out there prepare all you want, but once
you hit a real game, it's like, quote, oh my god,
(45:46):
it's a lot different and a lot faster.
Speaker 4 (45:48):
Where am I looking? What am I doing?
Speaker 5 (45:49):
He said, His weeks go on more and more. He
felt a little bit more comfortable, but he said, you know,
obviously the trickiest part of being a broadcaster is trying
to figure out what the audience wants or expects. So
if you want to see more of the Tom Brady interview,
you can check it out. It's with Joe Klatt on YouTube,
Big Noon Conversations, Midweek or.
Speaker 2 (46:05):
Major, absolutely major, because it's Tom Brady and he's a
goat in his own right, and it's cool to hear
his vulnerability, even though.
Speaker 3 (46:16):
It's hard to say his humility. I guess in this
new situation where even Tom Brady, where everything.
Speaker 2 (46:23):
Seems to come easy for the guy, struggles sometimes and
he put himself in a situation where he's really trying
to get better at this, I think that's cool to
hear for anybody. Yeah, I think it's major because everything,
no matter what it is, it's going to take work
and discipline, right, did you say?
Speaker 4 (46:38):
In a related story, real Quick.
Speaker 2 (46:40):
Drew Brees said that if he were to be an
analyst right now, he would immediately be top three.
Speaker 4 (46:45):
Did you see this?
Speaker 2 (46:47):
It's like the confidence, saying that he has perspective on
the game more so than anyone he could imagine. And
he goes, if I, if I did it right now,
I would immediately be top three. Not to sound selfish,
but I know what I bring, so, like you know,
I love the confidence. So maybe you'll see Drew Brees
before you know it, and then he'll see those Tom
Brady struggles.
Speaker 4 (47:04):
In the beginning, right right.
Speaker 3 (47:06):
Not as easy as it looks. But Drew Brees personable guy. Yeah,
not impossible
