Speaker 1 (00:03):
We never get to it all. So here we are
over promised, getting situated.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Welcome to our brand new after show called over Promised
with Covino and Rich, brought to you by DraftKings Sportsbook.
I'm Steve Cavino. That's blubber Lips Davis everybody, because he
over promises so much, we can't fit it into our
two hour show.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Having too much damn Funnie Murphy.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Having so much fun. So one thing I was talking
about on our Fox Sports radio show today that I
got to bring up again before we get into this
baseball challenge that Rich believes in. He thinks he would
do better than me, better than you.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Well, it's a hypothetical and it has to do with
your skills.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
And Bert Kreischer posted what might be the worst pick
and worst first pitch ever. So we're gonna talk Bert
in a second, so stick around, but gotta talk about
the game tonight. I'm a Yankees fan, don't hold that
against me. I'm a nice guy. Nice to meet you. Oh,
twenty seven rings by this year. They're looking to win
a game. They're looking to win a game, but they're
(01:06):
looking to lose ten in a row. Tonight they've lost
nine in a row, which sounds Unbelievable'm a Yankees fan.
I can't even believe this. I keep telling people they stink.
They're like, they're not They're not that bad, relaxed nine
in a row. They haven't lost nine in a row
since nineteen eighty two. And if they lose ten in
a row tonight with their quote unquote number two on
(01:29):
the mound, it's the first time that they've done that
since before World War One. I believe I'm looking it
up right now.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
President was Woodrow Wilson. You know it's on the Yankees
in nineteen thirteen. By the way, I don't even know
if you know any of these guys, because none of
them were legends.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
I don't know Ebenezer something. It's Sweeney John Roy Hartzel, Yeah, no,
Bertie Creed Wert Washington in nineteen thirteen, but several. Reno's
going tonight, he's two and eight. What happened to that guy?
I don't know. He fell off a cliff. He's terrible.
He's got it just about an eight era seven point
(02:08):
nine eight. He's going against Gore, starter of the Nationals.
He's six and nine.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
I think the Yankees would lose if they were going
against Frank gore Yoh, seriously, I'm so football player.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
I'm wondering, you know, cause we're sponsored by DraftKings. You
putting some flow on this? Does this give you reason
to watch the Yankees? Do you want to see them
lose ten in a row, Because honestly, even though I'm
rooting for them, there's a part of me that just,
you know what, let's just see it, Let's just see
the disaster. Let's just see this happen. Let's just see
him lose ten in a row. They stink they're not
(02:38):
going anywhere.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Before I get into the bet to make tonight with DraftKings,
how does a guy go from two time All Star
he won nineteen games only a couple of years ago,
and era and the twos, and now he's two and
eight with a seven point nine to eighty.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
L Right, he's battled injuries, just never amounted what he
was supposed to be. We're talking about Luis Severino, and
I imagine he's rolling his sleeves up today saying, all right,
let's make history. Let's go ten in a row. Lame,
miserab bless. So I would put my money on that
the Yankees losing, I'm not I don't see a win
(03:17):
in their future. They're that bad.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Was that your John Travolta court, remember at the Academy Awards.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Yeah. No, It's like, you know, if we could see chemistry,
think about it, you could see chemistry and love and relationships, friendships.
If you could see and feel chemistry on a winning team,
you could see and feel the opposite. You know, a
relationship takes on a life of its own, and no
matter what you do to fix it, it's still crappy.
That's the Yankees. They lost it. It's the opposite of chemistry.
(03:43):
They got the ick. And again, if you want to
see what a bad team looks like, tune in as
they go for ten losses in a row tonight. I
just can't even believe it. Now, I have the best
to make if you want it. Okay, let's hear it.
This makes sense to me.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
So if you're involved and you want to do a
little draft, it's actually five man the Yankees. See there
minus one forty eight to win one hundred. I don't
want to bet on the Yankees because I want to
see this magical loss happen. So right now, the NASTI
is the only reason to watch. The Nats are plus
one twenty four. You're playing the Nationals. That's plus one
(04:19):
twenty four. Now, my Mets have looked decent lately, but
they're not going to beat the Braves again. So the
Braves are one ninety eight money line. So you got
NAT's money line one twenty four. Yeah, plus one twenty four,
Braves minus one ninety eight, and round it out with
Clayton Kershaw winning. Tonight, Dodgers are playing Cleveland. They're minus
two to twenty five. So if you get Yankees to lose,
(04:41):
which is history in the making, Mets to lose, okay,
and the Dodgers, who are hot twin against Cleveland at home,
it's one hundred wins, three eighty six. Let's go get
evolved DraftKings. Now, speaking of baseball, it brings us to
this challenge that rich Over promised.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Okay, that's what he does. I don't know why he
does it, but he does. And now we feel the
obligation too, and it's like continue here on this show.
You know what it's like, you know, I know what
it's like. It's like you're uncontrollable, you just yep, yeh, yeh.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
I think it's sort of like, you know how someone's
wife or girlfriend, no offense, ladies, We'll be doing their
hair ten minutes before the dinner reservation. You're like, how
do you think we're going to make it to the restaurant.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
It's your over the ambition.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
The reservations at seven o'clock. It's six point fifty two
and you're doing your makeup, right, We're not gonna make it.
It's kind of like we start our show and as
I'm rattling off the fifth thing in my mind and
I fit it all in.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
I don't think I could do this. I'm going to
fit it all in. Thankfully we have this now.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Well, hey, there was a meme I saw, and that's
how I get most of my news. Don't act like
you don't.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I get my jokes and my news courtesy of memes.
So it be.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
I saw this meme and it said how much money
would you make? And I thought this is great. It
was if you have ten at bats against Major League
Baseball pitching, a foul tip gets you one hundred dollars.
If you hit the ball in play one thousand bucks,
base hit ten grand home run a million dollars. How
(06:20):
much money are you walking away with? I thought about this,
ten bats, not ten swings. Ten to eighty that.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Bats, So that's a minimum of thirty pitches, right, thirty strikes?
Minimum three strikes, you're out. That's a minimum. Right, you
take a few, get your timing down.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Unless you put it in a play and then you won.
So yeah, so minimum misses thirty thirty because ten at bats,
ten abs. I thought about good math.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
You know, we always say, we always say, don't let
your ego be your amigo. Ego's not your amgo. But
sometimes your ego gives you that false confidence, like you know,
I used to play, I got some game, let's go.
But you're really bad too, because at first I'm like, yeah,
I could definitely put a few in play. But when
that's the heat, that's cheese is coming at you and
(07:02):
rich you know, cheese, cheesiest guy, I know you're not
doing it. You gotta and the pressure involves right because
you're there, you're like, oh, I'm gonna win some money.
You factor in all those things. You gotta be realistic
about it. So we challenge you to think, put that
cap on. How much money are you making in this
situation thinking cap So if you look at the graphic
(07:24):
foul tip hondo ball and play a thousand, see a
base HiT's gonna be arbitrary luck right, you might sneak
one through a little five six hole. You might bloop
one right center, like, oh, couldn't get around on the ball.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
I'm gonna say your best strategy here, But if you
go yard, I mean Bartolo Colonne. Wait, I I'm pretty
confident I could go yard batting practice sixty miles an
hour just taking rips.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
What if it was just like a lucky moment. You
never know sometimes that gods smile upon you, you know,
and they're like, you know, give them one. The guy
struggled to give.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Them just million dollars my best approach. I don't think
you even try to get a base hit right spot.
Hit me up with the graphic one more time. I
got a realistic gay.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
What he plays? What one thousand? Yeah? Ball and play
a thousand? And it all depends on what level of
athlete you are, right, I mean everybody has some confidence,
or at least you should. Everybody played maybe at one
point in their life. How good are you is a
factor here.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
I think I'm I think I'm walking away with seven
thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
And I'll tell you what. I'll tell you what you
can talk about over the We already explained he's overly ambitious.
I think you're out of your mind. I'll tell you
what I think.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
If you got the balls enough, you're not some little
wimpy wimp, good one, we could say whatever you want here,
right if yeah, if you're not a little bitch, I
think you could square up the bunk.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Now.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
You may not want to do this again, someone throwing
one hundred miles an hour, right, but if you square
up the bunt, you're gonna have three times each. Have
bet to just lay one down? It could be a
shitty bunp right back to the picture. It could be
a dribbler, you know. But how scared you're gonna be
to square up? You hear the sizzle the seams are going.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
You hear that sizzle? I didn't hear that pop here,
that pop of the glove. You think you're gonna able
to square up? Don't you ask yourself? How do big
leaguers not know how to lay down a bunch? It's
not eas It's zipping in at one hundred plus miles
per hour. It's not that easy seven thousand dollars. So
I would bet against this hat bats. I think hold
(09:36):
on for people that don't know. Rich still does play
Sunday softball. So yeah, I mean, yeah, you got a
factor that is nobody.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
You know what. You are more active and you are
swinging a bat more than most people, even though it
is softball.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
I guess you could say it's still more active than
a guy that hasn't touched a bat in a decade.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Me. I mean, you know, I haven't played in forever.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
I'm gonna say swinging a softball bat gives you no
advantage in swinging, but the the fact that you you know,
you're involved every week, right, I think squaring around to bunt,
I'm giving myself a little too much credit. I'd like
to think at least half of the bats, because even
if you miss a bunch like ooh, stuff two more
so you're gonna have thirty chances.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
What if this thing is so severe, like you're not
laying one down thirty pitches. What if they're throwing at you.
You know what a pictures if you don't know once
you're square, a picture's instinct is to go high and
tight and tight. You're gonna be like, yeah, let's go
picture of that seven g's crazy person right here. But hey,
(10:39):
I like the confidence. I was being realistic about it.
Have you swing away?
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Here's my thought, you swing away, I think you're all
full of shit and you're all delusional if you think
that off of major league pitching, just because you played
high school or college ball.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
You get in that batter's box.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
I've seen guys like Stanton who's batting like what two
hundred now under two hundred, Guys that are home run
champions have just swung aimlessly through three pitches in a row,
like looking lost at the plate?
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Spot? What do you think you could have? Confidence?
Speaker 4 (11:08):
Actually in the two of you, not myself, but I
think that you could each get a base hit at
least one base hit out of ten appys hit one.
I think you're I think that hunt you are walking.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Away professional fielders or like little league that's in play
or walking away.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
I say one base hit, so that's ten grand I'm
gonna say eight foul tips, eight battling high, so you're
gonna make eleven eight hundred dollars each.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Confidence spot. Thank you for backing us up again. I
played at a very low college level, but I was
a really great high school player, just to give it reference.
And I think we're really underestimating the heat and the
intensity in which a professional big leaguer, big league pitcher
throws at.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
I think bunting is your best shot because if you're
swinging away sliders, breaking balls, fastballs, knuckleball, there's no way you,
as a guy that doesn't play ball, kid, get in
the batter's box.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
And make contact. It's a it's awfully ambitious. Here's the question, though,
I'm gonna switch it up for a second. Our curves
and knuckles and sliders are those?
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Of course you're all part of it. Yeah, you're dude,
you're Efan Dunzo in the box. Okay, let me switch
it to basketball second, because I want to know your strategy.
Meaning if this or baseball we've talked about, well, you
can try to foul a few off for a hundred
bucks one hundred bucks laying down a bunt in play thousand.
So do you say, shit, I'm gonna swing away hopefully
I get a base hit ten grand or do you
say I can make a few thousand if I just
(12:40):
bumped a couple dribblers. If I told you basketball, switch
it up, full arena, h glass backboard, a little different
than your the gyms reception, reception, the crowds. If I
said you have thirty seconds, every layup is one hundred bucks,
every three pointers one thousand. Are you taking the easy
money by doing layup layup life or you like spotting up.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Spoting up. Yeah, I'm taking my chances there. So again
you got a factor in the pressure situation. Is there
a crowd there, but still money's on the line, right,
You might need the money. There's so much pressure involved,
so you could be really good, but under the pressure
you fall short. So in basketball, I'm going for those
three points now. To give you my answer, I was
(13:25):
being a little more realistic about it. I wrote down
I thought about it fourteen hundred dollars. I figured a
minimum of thirty pitches, ten at bats, three strikes in
that bat. I figured that I got one ball in
play once I got my timing, could be a ground
you can roll over a ball short. One ball in play.
So that was one thousand dollars, and this is minimum
(13:45):
thirty pitches. So I'm swinging missing, swinging missing, I'm like, oh,
you know, you're getting in that sort of zone trying
to figure out the timing. You're doubting yourself. You're going
through all these emotional rollercoasters. You're gonna be in your head.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
You said one thing that I already disagree with, timing.
You get a timing down at the batting cage. You
don't get a timing down when Max scherzers on the mat.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
Different. But you're still working on your timing. You're still
figuring it out. Just so I'm saying, at least I'm
being real about this. I'm saying one ball in play,
not a single not you know, not a frozen rope
into the gap. I'm talking one ball and play. That's
a thousand dollars. I got in this challenge and I
fouled off and doesn't even need to be like tipped it.
I fouled off four and probably two of those are
(14:34):
out of desperation. I'm playing a little pepper action. So
if you choke up and you peppered the ball and
you're not taking a full hack, you can make contact.
I believe in that. Tell you I'll help your timing.
So I'm saying me humbly and that's unlike me to
be this humble. I'm saying, fourteen hundred dollars. Realistically, if
this challenge came to be, if we ever get you
(14:54):
know what we know some people. You think Joe Bimel,
who listens to our show, former MLB Pitch, Sure, yeah,
you think he would say, yeah, I think rich would
make what did you say? Seven thousand dollars? Got your mind?
I think I could get the ball in play seven times.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
But you know what, realistically though, realistically though, if you
want the truth, the more I think about it, I
am letting my ego be my amigo, because if you
want to know the truth, I think you mean most
people listening. I don't care if you played high school ball,
college ball in your twenties. I think not having played
baseball for a good decade or so, I think ten
(15:33):
at bats.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
You might not touch the ball. I'm being serious, Like,
what sort of Captain caveman bat? What sort of club
were you using in your fans? I genuine, but I genuinary.
Just came with that that you know, that big red
whiffle bat that little kids used. The just came with
that big red bat. Look, I was being realistic about it.
Most people haven't even swung a wooden bat before. Yeah,
(15:56):
now you know what I'm thinking about it. More and
more professional baseball players have are told just put the
ball play to move the runner over, just lay a
bunt down, and they can't do it. They can't do
I think I could do it. On a challenge Again,
I'm saying, I see, I thought about this, and I'm
moving along. I think you know what I'm over there.
I'm imagining two nips tips and then I'm like, well,
(16:20):
screw it, I'm gonna pepper this. So I get two
little pepper actions and then I get one peppering off
of Barry that was great at pepper Bro. So then
I get one bomb play fourteen hundred dollars. That's all
I'm getting out of a big league pitcher. That's my Answerking,
what's yours.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Rift, King, Sportsbook, I'm betting against the Yankees tonight. Okay,
but if you and the box against Sevarino, I don't
think you would touch the ball.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
E is an eight. I think I might actually might
have a chance. I might have a shot thirty four expectations. Dude,
there's guys on the Yankees that are on the interstate
barely over two hundred. Like they're not hitting the way
they used to a lot of us, regular people, regular
fans do think, Man, I could hit one something, I
could hit one seventy in the Biggs. Chances are you
(17:10):
probably can't, you know, but you do expect them to
do a little better than that.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Since you and I have joked about our abilities playing
sports as kids compared to now. There was that other
meme that was floating around where you read the comments
on social media and people are so dellusional. It was
do you think you could?
Speaker 2 (17:30):
You know?
Speaker 1 (17:30):
I think One of them was do you think you
could pass for a positive yard in the NFL? Which
I think is possible. One of them was can you
hit a shot in the NBA? I think that's possible.
The one that I don't think anyone could do. One
of them was can you score point in tennis?
Speaker 2 (17:47):
No off of a professional player? No way, no how.
You would not be able to return the one hundred
and twenty miles per hour serve not at all. So hey,
maybe that's a conversation for another day. Again. Welcome to
over Promised with Covino and Rich. Discussions that Rich usually Rich.
I mean, we all do it over promised. We've all

Like wild thing Rick Vaughan.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Yes, wear those man. I see you feel like your
timings right, but you're just not seeing right. I'm not
seeing the seams. Anyway, we got us speaking of baseball,
talk about our buddy, not the name drop, but Bert
Kreischer's been on the show a few times. He listens
to us here and there. He posted a picture recently
(20:56):
on social media and he said, this is my rock bottom, Yeah,
rock bottom and eminem style.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
It was a picture of Bert thrown out a first
pitch at a Cleveland Guardians game earlier this year.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
And it's not flattering. I think just the.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Photo puts this in the worst first pitch category. And
I'm not busting his balls. I mean, Bert's our dude.
I mean he posted but he posted it and he
said that is now his motivation, his inspiration. He said
he is not drinking until he goes from two seventy
down to two thirty and spot. He posted a video
(21:37):
of he has that printed out in his home gym
because he hates that picture so much.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
There he is pressure pumping it up for me.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
He's not drinking again until he hits a certain weight goal.
By the way, Burt's pretty strong man.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Look at him do this. He's doing Dallas Houston and
good for you, Bert Hey, whatever motivates you. But it
was the first pitch in Cleveland and what was that
a few months ago? And he was like, oh man,
(22:21):
now him with his belly out is sort of his trademark. Look,
he's known for doing that. But even he saw that
and said, now that's a little too much. And he's
a guy that lost some weight. Remember him and Thom
Segura comedian. They went on this challenge and they lost
a bunch of weight a few years back, gained it
all back, and he's like, I gotta do something different now.
(22:41):
I got to say that everybody has a picture that
haunts them. If that's what motivates you, then good What
picture bothers you so much? It could be a family photo.
It could be buddy rules though rich While people think
about that, can we also say to our friends and family, like,
if you look like crap in a picture, do you
(23:02):
have to post it? And do you have to tag
that person on social media? Like I don't need to
see that because you think you look good. I look terrible.
Stop with that? Stop you. Yeah, but I don't like it.
I don't play by those rules. So I tell people,
you gotta poet. Can you take me out of that?
Can you want to tag me? I don't like it.
I don't want that. I feel like it's a little
it's a little much, a little overboard to be. I'll
(23:23):
say this, I think you could untag yourself because you're like, yeah,
I don't want people seeing that. I don't like that.
I don't think you could.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
Honestly, it's a dick move if you would, you're grown man.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Imagine Imagine you said you gotta post it because you
think you look cute, Like how lame? Can you? Let's
what else? Looks fat and your eyes are closed? But
I look good.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
So I'm I'm saying, if you go to a football
game a concert with some of your buds, imagine this.
Imagine calling your friends, Yo, what's going on? Hey John,
what's going on?
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Yeah? I got a weird thing. You know.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
I know you posted that picture of us at the
concert last week.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
Can you look untagged me? Because Luke FA like that.
Come on? Well, like I said, flattery, If it motivates you,
then it's a good thing because again, not the name drop,
but it's what we do. Our very first broadcast out
here in Los Angeles when we moved from the East
Coast to LA was at Henry Winkler's house. Henry Winkler, Uncle,
(24:21):
Henry's what I call him, the Funds. I think he
saw a lot of fawns in me. He's like, I
don't think you're like the Mexican faun. I don't think
he saw that. I think he said that, and I
don't know, just through the years of doing radio, He's like,
when you guys come by the way, I think you've
convinced yourself he said that about Mexican fonsa. Oh no, yeah,
I made that up. But I think in your mind
you think he said it so many times. Yeah, in
(24:43):
your fantasy, you could hit off a big leaguer. In
my fantasy, Henry was like, hey, let me tell you something,
cunning hand. That's the ree fauns right there, and he
pointed at me. But he did say, truthfully, when you
make it to La. Remember when he talked to Patrick Mahomes,
you have spot at my table. He said to us,
you could do a show at my house. We're like really,
(25:07):
and we did. And I'll be honest, we weren't even
that aggressive about it. We hit him up one time like, hey,
we're moving to LA, maybe we could do our first show.
He's like, at my house. Yeah, it was. It was amazing.
Right now in that moment, we're all having fun. He's like,
I brought bagels. He dude, he brought bagels for us.
(25:28):
And he's like, have a seat. And I'm in the
middle of eating a bagel. I'm serious, I'm not sure
and Spots like smile takes a picture and it is
the worst picture. It looks like I'm eating a mouthful
of gobba ghoul oh and I'm and dude, this picture
haunted me but motivated me. As you could see show
(25:49):
I'm spotty there it is. Look at it look like
a fat Robert de Niro. I don't know what's going
on there. But this one. Then our listeners like inflated
my head even more talking about how fat I looked,
but it looked like See this is years ago and
I was a lot trimmer. Like that just looks like
me now, to be honest, honest, maybe people are like that.
(26:10):
But at the time, you know, this was a really
bad photo of me. But they haunt you and they
motivate you, and I share that with you, so Bert,
it is sort of he's kind of off the hook.
We've all been there. If you use it for the
greater good than props to you to get in shape. Now,
the picture that bothers me so much going on in
this photo, Henry and his dog, the plates on his wall.
(26:34):
Rich had the time to pose. Yeah, the dog had
the time to post. I swear to I'll never forget
this yet you, I'll never forget it. We're not with
it enough to know that everyone else was taking a photo.
Some of you know this story. Some of you don't
write new people listening to over promised our new after show.
Thank you. I'm eating bagels and I see Henry come
(26:56):
up with his dog, and I'm looking at Henry and
his dog, and his dog's had a hand. I remember
his pause on the table and as I'm eating, like,
I turn around, ah, and then the pictures thinking and
there you go. That was it beautiful? So again he
haunted me, but it forced me to lose weight, which
clearly I guess I gained a little. Thanks. That looks
like a pretty standard picture of you. But look at
(27:18):
look at this. The buttons were ready to burst out
there but relaxed their rock god who thinks he's awesome.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
My my embarrassing photo that I wish would go away.
Bird crusher style is a photo at the Serious XM
studio when we were doing our show at SXM. We
had de Snyder of Twisted Sister on the show, and
you know how it goes. After the show hit the
commercials hey, let's take a picture now. When we went
(27:47):
to take the picture, I got mixed messages at the
same time, and I got by like my uh my
wires got crossed up. Someone said, all right, smile and
then someone at the same time said no, no, no,
make a bad ass face and do rock horns again.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
You know what, you interrupted my story. I feel like
you have this fantasy that that ever happened. Like we
discussed the Poe. It was Rich was just being a
cheese weeny. You got caught in the cheese weeny moment.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Someone said anything, Someone said, I'm three, and you posed
like this. Someone said smile, Someone said, all right, come on,
it's twisted sister rock horns.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
So I was like, do I smile? Do I do
rock horns?
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Like?
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Yeah, badass?
Speaker 1 (28:39):
I got twisted up and I did a combination of
the two.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
I mean, have you seen a cheeseyer guy. I'm not
saying I'm looking hard, but you know, I'm sort of
owning the moment with one of my heroes.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
You forget to shave a spot on your chin there,
soul patch, What the hell's going over with you there?
Speaker 2 (28:56):
That's when the salt patch was a thing, man, a
soul Look at that hat. Don't try to deflect and
take attention off your goofiness. There. That's the most unrocking
photo I've ever seen in my life. It's Rich thrown
up rock horns, but like rock horns at a I
don't know, at a Jonas Brothers concert or something I
don't know, at Taylor Swich rock on Joe bro So again,
(29:18):
this picture haunted Rich. He's like, all I want it
to go away, much like Burt Kreischer's photo, And that
also poses one more question because of what this means
for Bert Right, this picture that's gone viral even though
it was a few months ago. He reposted it on
his social media saying this is his motivation? Is it
up there as far as worst pitches, like worst pitches,
(29:41):
because there's always that conversation of fifty cent ba ba
boie these worst pitchures the yeah, yeah, yeah, there's been
a couple bad ones.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
I think as he's owning it, it's like that whole
trick where like if you own it, people don't bust
your balls anymore.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Like a nickname.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
If if you hate a nickname, what will people there
call you that nickname? I think Bert's pull on the
right approach. So, hey, your pictures if you want to
share them. I don't know why you would want to,
but if you want to play along at Covin on
Rich that picture that haunts you's the spot Oh as fun?
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Is it? The one where you're dressed like a turkey? Yeah,
that's that's a pretty good Well. Sometimes it's a picture
that you see like we had a former intern, right,
and he knew he was a bigger guy. But we
had a guest on our show is Olivia Mont. We
had Olvia mun on a show and he's like, dude,
I gotta get a picture. Huge fan. I'm a huge fan.
(30:38):
And he said I looked like such a monster slob
next to the beautiful Olivia Munt. That inspired me to
lose weight. Sometimes it's the picture that gets you motivated.
So you know, you got to turn dilemmas into dilemonade.
What sort of haunted you inspired you to push and
get ripped, get shredded.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Well, there you have it, the things we didn't get
to on the FSR show.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
Thank you, Fox Sports Radio, Thank you DraftKings. Remember two questions,
thank you? How many could you hit off of a
major league picture if you had money on the line? Right?
And seven thousands? And the picture that haunted you? Let
us know, all right, We'll see you guys tomorrow. A
Rivederci baby, see you in the Promised Land. Goodbye. Thank you,
We never get to it all. So here we are
over promised, getting situated.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
Welcome to our brand new after show called over Promised
with Covino and Rich, brought to you by DraftKings Sportsbook.
I'm Steve Cavino. That's blubber Lips Davis everybody, because he
over promises so much, we can't fit it into our
two hour show.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
Having too much damn Funnie Murphy.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
Having so much fun. So one thing I was talking
about on our Fox Sports radio show today that I
got to bring up again before we get into this
baseball challenge that Rich believes in. He thinks he would
do better than me, better than you.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Well, it's a hypothetical and it has to do with
your skills.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
And Bert Kreischer posted what might be the worst pick
and worst first pitch ever. So we're gonna talk Bert
in a second, so stick around, but gotta talk about
the game tonight. I'm a Yankees fan, don't hold that
against me. I'm a nice guy. Nice to meet you. Oh,
twenty seven rings by this year. They're looking to win
a game. They're looking to win a game, but they're
(01:06):
looking to lose ten in a row. Tonight they've lost
nine in a row, which sounds Unbelievable'm a Yankees fan.
I can't even believe this. I keep telling people they stink.
They're like, they're not They're not that bad, relaxed nine
in a row. They haven't lost nine in a row
since nineteen eighty two. And if they lose ten in
a row tonight with their quote unquote number two on
(01:29):
the mound, it's the first time that they've done that
since before World War One. I believe I'm looking it
up right now.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
President was Woodrow Wilson. You know it's on the Yankees
in nineteen thirteen. By the way, I don't even know
if you know any of these guys, because none of
them were legends.
Speaker 2 (01:46):
I don't know Ebenezer something. It's Sweeney John Roy Hartzel, Yeah, no,
Bertie Creed Wert Washington in nineteen thirteen, but several. Reno's
going tonight, he's two and eight. What happened to that guy?
I don't know. He fell off a cliff. He's terrible.
He's got it just about an eight era seven point
(02:08):
nine eight. He's going against Gore, starter of the Nationals.
He's six and nine.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
I think the Yankees would lose if they were going
against Frank gore Yoh, seriously, I'm so football player.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
I'm wondering, you know, cause we're sponsored by DraftKings. You
putting some flow on this? Does this give you reason
to watch the Yankees? Do you want to see them
lose ten in a row, Because honestly, even though I'm
rooting for them, there's a part of me that just,
you know what, let's just see it, Let's just see
the disaster. Let's just see this happen. Let's just see
him lose ten in a row. They stink they're not
(02:38):
going anywhere.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Before I get into the bet to make tonight with DraftKings,
how does a guy go from two time All Star
he won nineteen games only a couple of years ago,
and era and the twos, and now he's two and
eight with a seven point nine to eighty.
Speaker 2 (02:56):
L Right, he's battled injuries, just never amounted what he
was supposed to be. We're talking about Luis Severino, and
I imagine he's rolling his sleeves up today saying, all right,
let's make history. Let's go ten in a row. Lame,
miserab bless. So I would put my money on that
the Yankees losing, I'm not I don't see a win
(03:17):
in their future. They're that bad.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Was that your John Travolta court, remember at the Academy Awards.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
Yeah. No, It's like, you know, if we could see chemistry,
think about it, you could see chemistry and love and relationships, friendships.
If you could see and feel chemistry on a winning team,
you could see and feel the opposite. You know, a
relationship takes on a life of its own, and no
matter what you do to fix it, it's still crappy.
That's the Yankees. They lost it. It's the opposite of chemistry.
(03:43):
They got the ick. And again, if you want to
see what a bad team looks like, tune in as
they go for ten losses in a row tonight. I
just can't even believe it. Now, I have the best
to make if you want it. Okay, let's hear it.
This makes sense to me.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
So if you're involved and you want to do a
little draft, it's actually five man the Yankees. See there
minus one forty eight to win one hundred. I don't
want to bet on the Yankees because I want to
see this magical loss happen. So right now, the NASTI
is the only reason to watch. The Nats are plus
one twenty four. You're playing the Nationals. That's plus one
(04:19):
twenty four. Now, my Mets have looked decent lately, but
they're not going to beat the Braves again. So the
Braves are one ninety eight money line. So you got
NAT's money line one twenty four. Yeah, plus one twenty four,
Braves minus one ninety eight, and round it out with
Clayton Kershaw winning. Tonight, Dodgers are playing Cleveland. They're minus
two to twenty five. So if you get Yankees to lose,
(04:41):
which is history in the making, Mets to lose, okay,
and the Dodgers, who are hot twin against Cleveland at home,
it's one hundred wins, three eighty six. Let's go get
evolved DraftKings. Now, speaking of baseball, it brings us to
this challenge that rich Over promised.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
Okay, that's what he does. I don't know why he
does it, but he does. And now we feel the
obligation too, and it's like continue here on this show.
You know what it's like, you know, I know what
it's like. It's like you're uncontrollable, you just yep, yeh, yeh.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
I think it's sort of like, you know how someone's
wife or girlfriend, no offense, ladies, We'll be doing their
hair ten minutes before the dinner reservation. You're like, how
do you think we're going to make it to the restaurant.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
It's your over the ambition.
Speaker 1 (05:29):
The reservations at seven o'clock. It's six point fifty two
and you're doing your makeup, right, We're not gonna make it.
It's kind of like we start our show and as
I'm rattling off the fifth thing in my mind and
I fit it all in.
Speaker 2 (05:40):
I don't think I could do this. I'm going to
fit it all in. Thankfully we have this now.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Well, hey, there was a meme I saw, and that's
how I get most of my news. Don't act like
you don't.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I get my jokes and my news courtesy of memes.
So it be.
Speaker 1 (05:55):
I saw this meme and it said how much money
would you make? And I thought this is great. It
was if you have ten at bats against Major League
Baseball pitching, a foul tip gets you one hundred dollars.
If you hit the ball in play one thousand bucks,
base hit ten grand home run a million dollars. How
(06:20):
much money are you walking away with? I thought about this,
ten bats, not ten swings. Ten to eighty that.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Bats, So that's a minimum of thirty pitches, right, thirty strikes?
Minimum three strikes, you're out. That's a minimum. Right, you
take a few, get your timing down.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
Unless you put it in a play and then you won.
So yeah, so minimum misses thirty thirty because ten at bats,
ten abs. I thought about good math.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
You know, we always say, we always say, don't let
your ego be your amigo. Ego's not your amgo. But
sometimes your ego gives you that false confidence, like you know,
I used to play, I got some game, let's go.
But you're really bad too, because at first I'm like, yeah,
I could definitely put a few in play. But when
that's the heat, that's cheese is coming at you and
(07:02):
rich you know, cheese, cheesiest guy, I know you're not
doing it. You gotta and the pressure involves right because
you're there, you're like, oh, I'm gonna win some money.
You factor in all those things. You gotta be realistic
about it. So we challenge you to think, put that
cap on. How much money are you making in this
situation thinking cap So if you look at the graphic
(07:24):
foul tip hondo ball and play a thousand, see a
base HiT's gonna be arbitrary luck right, you might sneak
one through a little five six hole. You might bloop
one right center, like, oh, couldn't get around on the ball.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
I'm gonna say your best strategy here, But if you
go yard, I mean Bartolo Colonne. Wait, I I'm pretty
confident I could go yard batting practice sixty miles an
hour just taking rips.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
What if it was just like a lucky moment. You
never know sometimes that gods smile upon you, you know,
and they're like, you know, give them one. The guy
struggled to give.
Speaker 1 (07:59):
Them just million dollars my best approach. I don't think
you even try to get a base hit right spot.
Hit me up with the graphic one more time. I
got a realistic gay.
Speaker 2 (08:11):
What he plays? What one thousand? Yeah? Ball and play
a thousand? And it all depends on what level of
athlete you are, right, I mean everybody has some confidence,
or at least you should. Everybody played maybe at one
point in their life. How good are you is a
factor here.
Speaker 1 (08:27):
I think I'm I think I'm walking away with seven
thousand dollars.
Speaker 2 (08:34):
And I'll tell you what. I'll tell you what you
can talk about over the We already explained he's overly ambitious.
I think you're out of your mind. I'll tell you
what I think.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
If you got the balls enough, you're not some little
wimpy wimp, good one, we could say whatever you want here,
right if yeah, if you're not a little bitch, I
think you could square up the bunk.
Speaker 2 (08:54):
Now.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
You may not want to do this again, someone throwing
one hundred miles an hour, right, but if you square
up the bunt, you're gonna have three times each. Have
bet to just lay one down? It could be a
shitty bunp right back to the picture. It could be
a dribbler, you know. But how scared you're gonna be
to square up? You hear the sizzle the seams are going.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
You hear that sizzle? I didn't hear that pop here,
that pop of the glove. You think you're gonna able
to square up? Don't you ask yourself? How do big
leaguers not know how to lay down a bunch? It's
not eas It's zipping in at one hundred plus miles
per hour. It's not that easy seven thousand dollars. So
I would bet against this hat bats. I think hold
(09:36):
on for people that don't know. Rich still does play
Sunday softball. So yeah, I mean, yeah, you got a
factor that is nobody.
Speaker 2 (09:43):
You know what. You are more active and you are
swinging a bat more than most people, even though it
is softball.
Speaker 1 (09:48):
I guess you could say it's still more active than
a guy that hasn't touched a bat in a decade.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Me. I mean, you know, I haven't played in forever.
Speaker 1 (09:55):
I'm gonna say swinging a softball bat gives you no
advantage in swinging, but the the fact that you you know,
you're involved every week, right, I think squaring around to bunt,
I'm giving myself a little too much credit. I'd like
to think at least half of the bats, because even
if you miss a bunch like ooh, stuff two more
so you're gonna have thirty chances.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
What if this thing is so severe, like you're not
laying one down thirty pitches. What if they're throwing at you.
You know what a pictures if you don't know once
you're square, a picture's instinct is to go high and
tight and tight. You're gonna be like, yeah, let's go
picture of that seven g's crazy person right here. But hey,
(10:39):
I like the confidence. I was being realistic about it.
Have you swing away?
Speaker 1 (10:42):
Here's my thought, you swing away, I think you're all
full of shit and you're all delusional if you think
that off of major league pitching, just because you played
high school or college ball.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
You get in that batter's box.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
I've seen guys like Stanton who's batting like what two
hundred now under two hundred, Guys that are home run
champions have just swung aimlessly through three pitches in a row,
like looking lost at the plate?
Speaker 2 (11:05):
Spot? What do you think you could have? Confidence?
Speaker 4 (11:08):
Actually in the two of you, not myself, but I
think that you could each get a base hit at
least one base hit out of ten appys hit one.
I think you're I think that hunt you are walking.
Speaker 2 (11:19):
Away professional fielders or like little league that's in play
or walking away.
Speaker 4 (11:26):
I say one base hit, so that's ten grand I'm
gonna say eight foul tips, eight battling high, so you're
gonna make eleven eight hundred dollars each.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
Confidence spot. Thank you for backing us up again. I
played at a very low college level, but I was
a really great high school player, just to give it reference.
And I think we're really underestimating the heat and the
intensity in which a professional big leaguer, big league pitcher
throws at.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
I think bunting is your best shot because if you're
swinging away sliders, breaking balls, fastballs, knuckleball, there's no way you,
as a guy that doesn't play ball, kid, get in
the batter's box.
Speaker 2 (12:08):
And make contact. It's a it's awfully ambitious. Here's the question, though,
I'm gonna switch it up for a second. Our curves
and knuckles and sliders are those?
Speaker 1 (12:18):
Of course you're all part of it. Yeah, you're dude,
you're Efan Dunzo in the box. Okay, let me switch
it to basketball second, because I want to know your strategy.
Meaning if this or baseball we've talked about, well, you
can try to foul a few off for a hundred
bucks one hundred bucks laying down a bunt in play thousand.
So do you say, shit, I'm gonna swing away hopefully
I get a base hit ten grand or do you
say I can make a few thousand if I just
(12:40):
bumped a couple dribblers. If I told you basketball, switch
it up, full arena, h glass backboard, a little different
than your the gyms reception, reception, the crowds. If I
said you have thirty seconds, every layup is one hundred bucks,
every three pointers one thousand. Are you taking the easy
money by doing layup layup life or you like spotting up.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
Spoting up. Yeah, I'm taking my chances there. So again
you got a factor in the pressure situation. Is there
a crowd there, but still money's on the line, right,
You might need the money. There's so much pressure involved,
so you could be really good, but under the pressure
you fall short. So in basketball, I'm going for those
three points now. To give you my answer, I was
(13:25):
being a little more realistic about it. I wrote down
I thought about it fourteen hundred dollars. I figured a
minimum of thirty pitches, ten at bats, three strikes in
that bat. I figured that I got one ball in
play once I got my timing, could be a ground
you can roll over a ball short. One ball in play.
So that was one thousand dollars, and this is minimum
(13:45):
thirty pitches. So I'm swinging missing, swinging missing, I'm like, oh,
you know, you're getting in that sort of zone trying
to figure out the timing. You're doubting yourself. You're going
through all these emotional rollercoasters. You're gonna be in your head.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
You said one thing that I already disagree with, timing.
You get a timing down at the batting cage. You
don't get a timing down when Max scherzers on the mat.
Speaker 2 (14:10):
Different. But you're still working on your timing. You're still
figuring it out. Just so I'm saying, at least I'm
being real about this. I'm saying one ball in play,
not a single not you know, not a frozen rope
into the gap. I'm talking one ball and play. That's
a thousand dollars. I got in this challenge and I
fouled off and doesn't even need to be like tipped it.
I fouled off four and probably two of those are
(14:34):
out of desperation. I'm playing a little pepper action. So
if you choke up and you peppered the ball and
you're not taking a full hack, you can make contact.
I believe in that. Tell you I'll help your timing.
So I'm saying me humbly and that's unlike me to
be this humble. I'm saying, fourteen hundred dollars. Realistically, if
this challenge came to be, if we ever get you
(14:54):
know what we know some people. You think Joe Bimel,
who listens to our show, former MLB Pitch, Sure, yeah,
you think he would say, yeah, I think rich would
make what did you say? Seven thousand dollars? Got your mind?
I think I could get the ball in play seven times.
Speaker 1 (15:09):
But you know what, realistically though, realistically though, if you
want the truth, the more I think about it, I
am letting my ego be my amigo, because if you
want to know the truth, I think you mean most
people listening. I don't care if you played high school ball,
college ball in your twenties. I think not having played
baseball for a good decade or so, I think ten
(15:33):
at bats.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
You might not touch the ball. I'm being serious, Like,
what sort of Captain caveman bat? What sort of club
were you using in your fans? I genuine, but I genuinary.
Just came with that that you know, that big red
whiffle bat that little kids used. The just came with
that big red bat. Look, I was being realistic about it.
Most people haven't even swung a wooden bat before. Yeah,
(15:56):
now you know what I'm thinking about it. More and
more professional baseball players have are told just put the
ball play to move the runner over, just lay a
bunt down, and they can't do it. They can't do
I think I could do it. On a challenge Again,
I'm saying, I see, I thought about this, and I'm
moving along. I think you know what I'm over there.
I'm imagining two nips tips and then I'm like, well,
(16:20):
screw it, I'm gonna pepper this. So I get two
little pepper actions and then I get one peppering off
of Barry that was great at pepper Bro. So then
I get one bomb play fourteen hundred dollars. That's all
I'm getting out of a big league pitcher. That's my Answerking,
what's yours.
Speaker 1 (16:38):
Rift, King, Sportsbook, I'm betting against the Yankees tonight. Okay,
but if you and the box against Sevarino, I don't
think you would touch the ball.
Speaker 2 (16:48):
E is an eight. I think I might actually might
have a chance. I might have a shot thirty four expectations. Dude,
there's guys on the Yankees that are on the interstate
barely over two hundred. Like they're not hitting the way
they used to a lot of us, regular people, regular
fans do think, Man, I could hit one something, I
could hit one seventy in the Biggs. Chances are you
(17:10):
probably can't, you know, but you do expect them to
do a little better than that.
Speaker 1 (17:14):
Since you and I have joked about our abilities playing
sports as kids compared to now. There was that other
meme that was floating around where you read the comments
on social media and people are so dellusional. It was
do you think you could?
Speaker 2 (17:30):
You know?
Speaker 1 (17:30):
I think One of them was do you think you
could pass for a positive yard in the NFL? Which
I think is possible. One of them was can you
hit a shot in the NBA? I think that's possible.
The one that I don't think anyone could do. One
of them was can you score point in tennis?
Speaker 2 (17:47):
No off of a professional player? No way, no how.
You would not be able to return the one hundred
and twenty miles per hour serve not at all. So hey,
maybe that's a conversation for another day. Again. Welcome to

Hold on a second. Maybe I should bust out these
(20:06):
bad boys right here. They're not mine. Someone sent them
to me. I said, I need them, Yeah, because every
time we read new readers, so anyway, Hey, maybe we'll
put that major league challenge to the test in one
of our future reads, one of our future shows. What
do you think? I don't think there you We'll get
a big leaguer here to pitch against us, see what
(20:26):
we can do. You know what, that's another factor if
I'm hitting off a big league picture, like do I
gotta get my eyes checked first? Right?
Speaker 4 (20:33):
Like wild thing Rick Vaughan.
Speaker 2 (20:35):
Yes, wear those man. I see you feel like your
timings right, but you're just not seeing right. I'm not
seeing the seams. Anyway, we got us speaking of baseball,
talk about our buddy, not the name drop, but Bert
Kreischer's been on the show a few times. He listens
to us here and there. He posted a picture recently
(20:56):
on social media and he said, this is my rock bottom, Yeah,
rock bottom and eminem style.
Speaker 1 (21:06):
It was a picture of Bert thrown out a first
pitch at a Cleveland Guardians game earlier this year.
Speaker 2 (21:13):
And it's not flattering. I think just the.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Photo puts this in the worst first pitch category. And
I'm not busting his balls. I mean, Bert's our dude.
I mean he posted but he posted it and he
said that is now his motivation, his inspiration. He said
he is not drinking until he goes from two seventy
down to two thirty and spot. He posted a video
(21:37):
of he has that printed out in his home gym
because he hates that picture so much.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
There he is pressure pumping it up for me.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
He's not drinking again until he hits a certain weight goal.
By the way, Burt's pretty strong man.
Speaker 2 (21:58):
Look at him do this. He's doing Dallas Houston and
good for you, Bert Hey, whatever motivates you. But it
was the first pitch in Cleveland and what was that
a few months ago? And he was like, oh man,
(22:21):
now him with his belly out is sort of his trademark. Look,
he's known for doing that. But even he saw that
and said, now that's a little too much. And he's
a guy that lost some weight. Remember him and Thom
Segura comedian. They went on this challenge and they lost
a bunch of weight a few years back, gained it
all back, and he's like, I gotta do something different now.
(22:41):
I got to say that everybody has a picture that
haunts them. If that's what motivates you, then good What
picture bothers you so much? It could be a family photo.
It could be buddy rules though rich While people think
about that, can we also say to our friends and family, like,
if you look like crap in a picture, do you
(23:02):
have to post it? And do you have to tag
that person on social media? Like I don't need to
see that because you think you look good. I look terrible.
Stop with that? Stop you. Yeah, but I don't like it.
I don't play by those rules. So I tell people,
you gotta poet. Can you take me out of that?
Can you want to tag me? I don't like it.
I don't want that. I feel like it's a little
it's a little much, a little overboard to be. I'll
(23:23):
say this, I think you could untag yourself because you're like, yeah,
I don't want people seeing that. I don't like that.
I don't think you could.
Speaker 1 (23:30):
Honestly, it's a dick move if you would, you're grown man.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
Imagine Imagine you said you gotta post it because you
think you look cute, Like how lame? Can you? Let's
what else? Looks fat and your eyes are closed? But
I look good.
Speaker 1 (23:43):
So I'm I'm saying, if you go to a football
game a concert with some of your buds, imagine this.
Imagine calling your friends, Yo, what's going on? Hey John,
what's going on?
Speaker 2 (23:52):
Yeah? I got a weird thing. You know.
Speaker 1 (23:55):
I know you posted that picture of us at the
concert last week.
Speaker 2 (23:58):
Can you look untagged me? Because Luke FA like that.
Come on? Well, like I said, flattery, If it motivates you,
then it's a good thing because again, not the name drop,
but it's what we do. Our very first broadcast out
here in Los Angeles when we moved from the East
Coast to LA was at Henry Winkler's house. Henry Winkler, Uncle,
(24:21):
Henry's what I call him, the Funds. I think he
saw a lot of fawns in me. He's like, I
don't think you're like the Mexican faun. I don't think
he saw that. I think he said that, and I
don't know, just through the years of doing radio, He's like,
when you guys come by the way, I think you've
convinced yourself he said that about Mexican fonsa. Oh no, yeah,
I made that up. But I think in your mind
you think he said it so many times. Yeah, in
(24:43):
your fantasy, you could hit off a big leaguer. In
my fantasy, Henry was like, hey, let me tell you something,
cunning hand. That's the ree fauns right there, and he
pointed at me. But he did say, truthfully, when you
make it to La. Remember when he talked to Patrick Mahomes,
you have spot at my table. He said to us,
you could do a show at my house. We're like really,
(25:07):
and we did. And I'll be honest, we weren't even
that aggressive about it. We hit him up one time like, hey,
we're moving to LA, maybe we could do our first show.
He's like, at my house. Yeah, it was. It was amazing.
Right now in that moment, we're all having fun. He's like,
I brought bagels. He dude, he brought bagels for us.
(25:28):
And he's like, have a seat. And I'm in the
middle of eating a bagel. I'm serious, I'm not sure
and Spots like smile takes a picture and it is
the worst picture. It looks like I'm eating a mouthful
of gobba ghoul oh and I'm and dude, this picture
haunted me but motivated me. As you could see show
(25:49):
I'm spotty there it is. Look at it look like
a fat Robert de Niro. I don't know what's going
on there. But this one. Then our listeners like inflated
my head even more talking about how fat I looked,
but it looked like See this is years ago and
I was a lot trimmer. Like that just looks like
me now, to be honest, honest, maybe people are like that.
(26:10):
But at the time, you know, this was a really
bad photo of me. But they haunt you and they
motivate you, and I share that with you, so Bert,
it is sort of he's kind of off the hook.
We've all been there. If you use it for the
greater good than props to you to get in shape. Now,
the picture that bothers me so much going on in
this photo, Henry and his dog, the plates on his wall.
(26:34):
Rich had the time to pose. Yeah, the dog had
the time to post. I swear to I'll never forget
this yet you, I'll never forget it. We're not with
it enough to know that everyone else was taking a photo.
Some of you know this story. Some of you don't
write new people listening to over promised our new after show.
Thank you. I'm eating bagels and I see Henry come
(26:56):
up with his dog, and I'm looking at Henry and
his dog, and his dog's had a hand. I remember
his pause on the table and as I'm eating, like,
I turn around, ah, and then the pictures thinking and
there you go. That was it beautiful? So again he
haunted me, but it forced me to lose weight, which
clearly I guess I gained a little. Thanks. That looks
like a pretty standard picture of you. But look at
(27:18):
look at this. The buttons were ready to burst out
there but relaxed their rock god who thinks he's awesome.
Speaker 1 (27:27):
My my embarrassing photo that I wish would go away.
Bird crusher style is a photo at the Serious XM
studio when we were doing our show at SXM. We
had de Snyder of Twisted Sister on the show, and
you know how it goes. After the show hit the
commercials hey, let's take a picture now. When we went
(27:47):
to take the picture, I got mixed messages at the
same time, and I got by like my uh my
wires got crossed up. Someone said, all right, smile and
then someone at the same time said no, no, no,
make a bad ass face and do rock horns again.
Speaker 2 (28:07):
You know what, you interrupted my story. I feel like
you have this fantasy that that ever happened. Like we
discussed the Poe. It was Rich was just being a
cheese weeny. You got caught in the cheese weeny moment.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Someone said anything, Someone said, I'm three, and you posed
like this. Someone said smile, Someone said, all right, come on,
it's twisted sister rock horns.
Speaker 2 (28:33):
So I was like, do I smile? Do I do
rock horns?
Speaker 1 (28:37):
Like?
Speaker 2 (28:38):
Yeah, badass?
Speaker 1 (28:39):
I got twisted up and I did a combination of
the two.
Speaker 2 (28:44):
I mean, have you seen a cheeseyer guy. I'm not
saying I'm looking hard, but you know, I'm sort of
owning the moment with one of my heroes.
Speaker 1 (28:52):
You forget to shave a spot on your chin there,
soul patch, What the hell's going over with you there?
Speaker 2 (28:56):
That's when the salt patch was a thing, man, a
soul Look at that hat. Don't try to deflect and
take attention off your goofiness. There. That's the most unrocking
photo I've ever seen in my life. It's Rich thrown
up rock horns, but like rock horns at a I
don't know, at a Jonas Brothers concert or something I
don't know, at Taylor Swich rock on Joe bro So again,
(29:18):
this picture haunted Rich. He's like, all I want it
to go away, much like Burt Kreischer's photo, And that
also poses one more question because of what this means
for Bert Right, this picture that's gone viral even though
it was a few months ago. He reposted it on
his social media saying this is his motivation? Is it
up there as far as worst pitches, like worst pitches,
(29:41):
because there's always that conversation of fifty cent ba ba
boie these worst pitchures the yeah, yeah, yeah, there's been
a couple bad ones.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
I think as he's owning it, it's like that whole
trick where like if you own it, people don't bust
your balls anymore.
Speaker 2 (29:56):
Like a nickname.
Speaker 1 (29:57):
If if you hate a nickname, what will people there
call you that nickname? I think Bert's pull on the
right approach. So, hey, your pictures if you want to
share them. I don't know why you would want to,
but if you want to play along at Covin on
Rich that picture that haunts you's the spot Oh as fun?
Speaker 2 (30:17):
Is it? The one where you're dressed like a turkey? Yeah,
that's that's a pretty good Well. Sometimes it's a picture
that you see like we had a former intern, right,
and he knew he was a bigger guy. But we
had a guest on our show is Olivia Mont. We
had Olvia mun on a show and he's like, dude,
I gotta get a picture. Huge fan. I'm a huge fan.
(30:38):
And he said I looked like such a monster slob
next to the beautiful Olivia Munt. That inspired me to
lose weight. Sometimes it's the picture that gets you motivated.
So you know, you got to turn dilemmas into dilemonade.
What sort of haunted you inspired you to push and
get ripped, get shredded.
Speaker 1 (30:56):
Well, there you have it, the things we didn't get
to on the FSR show.
Speaker 2 (31:01):
Thank you, Fox Sports Radio, Thank you DraftKings. Remember two questions,
thank you? How many could you hit off of a
major league picture if you had money on the line? Right?
And seven thousands? And the picture that haunted you? Let
us know, all right, We'll see you guys tomorrow. A
Rivederci baby, see you in the Promised Land. Goodbye. Thank you,
