Speaker 1 (00:01):
You're listening to Fox Sports Radio. All right, who left

There still one right now, they're one one. I heard
the say the update nice so rich as a Mets guy,
I'm a Yankees guy. We're from the East Coast, but
we're out here in the mean streets of l A Angels.
(01:07):
Nothing mean about Sherman, Ok. I'm Steve Cavino, big baseball fan.
I have the the sports taste of an eighty year
old white guy. I like baseball and boxing and rock music.
So yeah, I'm like an old white guy. You think
women can vote, right, I'm okay with women. But I'm
Steve Cavino. Different backgrounds and you're good with that, right,
(01:28):
which is a big you know, football, baseball flip flop guy.
He's like a flip flop guy wearing his flip flops
here in the studio because that's appropriate. It's a hundred
degrees in southern California. I get it. By the way,
Can I start off with that? Let's start off with that.
I think I did before I got here. Yeah, you
know what, man, Honestly, the flop's gotta go. But I
(01:50):
feel like my body not physically well physically and just
like something inside just not ready for this heat. Like
the heat is just too much already, I'm like, you
just lethargic, right, aren't you lethargic? You don't wanna do anything.
I don't want to do anything is too hot. I'm
feeling good, man, I really I played softball this morning.
I had a lot of fun. No thanks, taking some
nice swings this morning. Outside is too hot. Outside, releasing
(02:14):
the stress with some nice softball this morning. Then I
got home, brought the kids doughnuts, brought my wife for coffee,
and we spent a couple of hours in the pool.
And my kids at that age where all they want
to do is jump to you and then again again again,
like daddy wants to chill. Yeah, sound yeah, We're two
hours in the pool. And then I was like, all right,
(02:34):
let me make my sports notes, let me turn on
the Mets game, and here we are. Well, I'll say
this to anyone new h You could hear us Monday
through Thursday on Patreon, Patreon, dot com, slash Covino and
Rich and if you go to our social media, because
we're trying to be the most inclusive, most interactive show
on radio on Fox Sports Radio. So we're streaming live
as we speak with up streaming people at Covino Enrich
(02:55):
on social media on our Instagram page at Covino and
Rich and taking your phone calls at eight sevens have
a nine on Fox. Let the wild drump start. But
before we even get to uh so much to get
to today, Robbie Cano, Yeah, we got we gotta gotta
talk about fans knocking each other out. We'll talk baseball,
basketball game five tomorrow, Warriors and Celtics. But I just
(03:17):
heard I was Sam on the boards play like a
little beep sound effect. Can you play that again? It
was like a little boop? What was it? I did
you play a beep? Or am I hearing things? I
feel like you heard it. We're just a bird brain.
So you just heard some chirping in his head, you know,
like a chirp like when a fire, when like your fire.
He did the Twitter sound. Yeah, that's you know. I
saw an item. Yeah you heard that's he that's a
(03:40):
little social media I thought I was saying. Was was
was listening at the women walking back. I thought he's
got a nice I saw a device on social media.
That would be the worst trick you could plan a friend.
You don't ever had those buddies in high school or
college that would do things like, well, I'm gonna put
an egg under under your dorm room bed until it
(04:01):
smells in your room and you're trying to figure out
what it was like you always had that one jerk friend.
I put a toothpaste on your Oreo cookies? Gotcha like that?
What could I saw a fox? Probably that what I
want to say that bad guy. I saw something you
could buy for fifty bucks. It's a tiny little thing
you could plant in someone's house and it sounds like
there's something constantly going off, like like you know when
(04:22):
you have to replace your fire alarm batteries. Yeah, it's
like so small that you could I could go to
Caveno's condo and just put it somewhere he'll never see
it and forever back. What's that damn sound? See what
you did? And I always saying you play a little
tweet and we had to hear all about that. But
if you next, you know, originally buy this, and I'm
gonna you want to choke him now if you're if
you have a friend, if you have a friend or
family member that needs a little pay back. I'm just
(04:44):
saying there's a device out there you could buy that
just it's a tiny little thing that just will permanently
make or you could just be like me and never
change your batteries. Anyway, you have that sound going off constantly.
You know, I have like cathedral ceilings in my place.
I don't what do I need some sort of like
fireman's ladder to get up there to change them? Seriously,
how do I get up there? No? But seriously, I
(05:06):
have high ceilings at my place and the fire alarm
is up there. I can't reach that. Is that why
you would fight it? Ryan Hollins of the First Drink,
You got to change my light bulbs and Hollans and
change the batteries on my fire detector. Yeah, I can't
reach that. So I got a constant beep going on
anyway for Roan Hollins and Shaquilla and the O people
(05:27):
like that. Those are just called ceilings. Yeah, no, no,
no, no no, yeah, I got high ceilings in my bedroom
and living room. Again, live from the West Coast, Cavino
and Rich. So if you have that beat, maybe somebody
sabotage you, and maybe you gotta get some batteries. Who knows. Well,
we gotta talk about Robbie Cano, because is this the
biggest fall from grace in sports? Is this humiliating or
(05:49):
is this a guy who who you know, still believes
in himself and wants to go out on a high note.
The guy wore the pin stripes. Now he's wearing the
El Paso cheat. Wahwas SpongeBob SpongeBob uniform? Preted it was
SpongeBob Knight. But this picture, this, this meme has gone viral.
So you're insinuating going from the pinstriped pride to have
(06:12):
to say that for the dynamic of this conversation, right,
I mean, here's a guy who was again he could
have been. Well, he was a franchise player for the Yankees,
but he played with Jeter, right, so Jeter was the guy.
But Robbie Cano had that million dollars smile, that multimillion
dollars swing. Robbie Canoe is playing or played his first
minor league games since two thousand and five, excluding rehab
(06:34):
assignments on SpongeBob Night, sponge Ron Night for the l
Paso Chihuahuas. Now some people heard off, Robbie Canoe got
a hit, you gotta you got a free sandwich at
the Crabby Crab crap, don't you know? Free So check
(06:58):
this out. Some people think that there's go hard because
there's a lot of kids, there's a lot of kids
who grew up in the generation of SpongeBob. We're older
than that. I respect SpongeBob. I think he's great. I
love those cartoons. Right, as a dad, we watched him
or your siblings watched them growing up. But to see
Robbie Cano who wore the pinch stripes in this SpongeBob
(07:21):
square pants jersey, which I understand again some kids like,
is ridiculous. Honestly, it's just a it's a big, big
time fall from grace. You could say karma, you can
say you reap what you so, or you could say, hey,
you know what he's he's humbled and you go get him.
Robbie one time world champion, two time pe d offender. Right,
(07:44):
I mean there are people saying, remember home run derby
champion two. Remember that moment, the beautiful moment with his
dad and his dad. He was one of the first
guys to do that. As far as I remember, that
was a beautiful moment. It was beautiful. People forget that
Robbie Cano on the home run Derby with his dad
pitching to him like they were in their yard as children.
I mean, the guy was an inspiration. The guy was
so good that he he had a lazy stigma, a
(08:06):
lazy guy reputation because he made it look so easy.
I saw a headline that said, one of the greatest
players of the twenty one century is now wearing a
SpongeBob shirt. Well, we've thrown this stand out before on
our Patreon and in here on Fox Sports Radio. Robbie
Cano led the two thousands and hits. That's how dominant
(08:27):
of a player he was, right and again, day in
day out. The dude was. He was a slick infielder,
and he was Miguel Cabrera type of Manni Ramirez type
of hitter, just a natural hitter, like no matter what
bounced around. Took the money in Seattle. That's the move
that I know you and a lot of people debate
and I and I sort of agree. Yeah, he had
(08:48):
a great thing going on, right, So to leave the
Yanks and to not go to the Dodgers or the
Cardinals or Mets or you know, a big city team,
to say I'm gonna take the money and just waste
away in Seattle. I get it pretty it was a
money grab. What was it, two forty years at the time,
and it's it's a career, it's a business, right, so
you have you have all these decisions to make, you know,
(09:09):
who knows what they promised him, But it seemed like
a bad move, right, especially when you had other great
options and New York fans loved him. I loved him,
you know, to see him sort of sort of fade
away in Seattle. Really and then he ends up on
your mets. They release him, They release him. He ends
up on the Padres for like a day. How long
(09:30):
is the padres? Not long? Not? But we they release him.
He wants to explore free agency. No one takes him,
and then he goes, hey, Padres, that minor league assignment
options still on the table. He takes it. He's playing
for the Chihuahuas. I'm surprised. I'm very surprised by that.
Let me tell you, it says a lot to me.
I'm gonna be the first person to say this. Anyone
(09:53):
that's saying this is embarrassing and humiliating, I'm gonna say
it's not. And I'll tell you what, Hey, can I
say this before you give your everybody loves a comeback story.
So am I rooting for Robbie Cano. Am I surprised
that he is humbled enough to say okay to that? Yeah?
I am, but it is an embarrassment. It's it is
Robbie Canoe in a SpongeBob uniform. I get that aspect
(10:16):
of it. And of all days for him to start
this journey, you look handsome, Robbie. Pick the wrong day,
Grabby Patties. Listen. I think it was Daniel Tosh back
in the day before. Did they cancel him or just
take a time out? I love Daniel Tosh. I don't
know Daniel Tosh. On social media he does a great
(10:39):
bit about people criticizing backup quarterbacks and he's like, so
you would retire and not just sit there and collect
millions of dollars holding a clipboard. Robbie Cano wants to
play baseball. He has made hundreds of millions of dollars
more than any of us playing a game that we
watch that we wish we could play. Did we play
(11:01):
a lame version of on the weekends with our old buddies?
With the ball? With the ball is not lame, but
what I'm saying is there's nothing embarrassing about a future
Hall of Famer. If they if they, you're kidding me, Bro,
You're you're really kidding me right now, right we're talking
one of the greats. Dude. This guy was a Hall
of Famer who again got suspended from the league for
(11:23):
steroids and things like that. Do you say steroids? He said,
star woid steroids, SpongeBob steroids. Who's now in the minor
leagues in the weakest, well debatable weakest some think are
cool whatever SpongeBob uniforms ever, But the point is he
(11:47):
did it to himself. Man, how could you see? There's
not embarrassment to that, you know what I mean? There's
absolutely want to give how to give you another star player? Like,
how would you feel because you're a Mets guy? Okay,
give me one. Would you feel? How do you feel
when Manny being Manny had his nice little run for
the Dodgers and then towards the end, Yeah, I was like, yo, man,
he's playing in the d r and here in all
(12:08):
these random places. Did you don't think that was his
attempt to come back because he loved the guy? I
just think he wanted to stay in the game, and
he loved the game, wanted to play. He's from the
dr could sit down right now and still collect millions
of dollars, but he wants to play, which is the
one part of this where I admire because he could say,
you know what if you Mets, f you Padres but
(12:30):
no one else that wants me, I'm gonna sit back
and collect my millions. I'm done. Yeah, But he didn't
have to be there at this point in his career.
He could have said, how can I start? Can I start?
Not on SpongeBob Nutt. I gotta check his age just
for Robbie Connell's thirty nine. He's gonna be you know
he's up there. It's gonna be forty in October. If
(12:50):
he told me he retired, right and he's just playing
for the love of the game right now, that's a
different story. This is sort of Yeah, baseball kicked him out.
He over state his welcome and he's not the player
he once was, and that happens to everybody, guys. But
remember the path he took again. Is it karma? Is
it embarrassing? Is he trying to recapture some of that glory.
(13:12):
Is he gonna be accepted by another team at the
end of the year and go out on a high note. Hey,
I hope that all that happens. But to say this
isn't embarrassing, I think is? I think that's I don't know.
I just think you're off on that. I'm trying to
say politely. You can say it not politely. When does
that ever stop you, Danny j embarrassing? Or do you
(13:32):
admire Robbie Knot's efforts to still try to play. I
admire it, Yeah, I do, because there's been times where
all of us have been down. We've had a gap
between radio networks or radio station. I mean, dude, rich
rich And I lost two full well, I lost two
full time jobs during the pandemic. You know, everybody, everybody
(13:55):
hits rock bottom. Yeah, and I had you know, I
had get back on on the on the stage, and
I had to use my stage name again, Sexy Steve.
I had to dance. Hey, I had to do what
I had to do. But um, I get that, Danny,
but he brought that upon himself. Man, That's how that's
how I feel about it. It's not like he caught
(14:16):
a bad break some of us have done that in
radio too. I've got fired from radio stations. I'm sure
you guys have as well. Yeah, well that didn't happen
by accident. I did that to myself, so you have
to pull yourself up and bounce back. Robbie Cano. All
the headlines, though, somehow incorporate SpongeBob like it's almost it's
a can I tell you a story? You know what
(14:36):
makes it more humiliating? Danny g and Bobo? What's up? Bobo?
Did you show up here around a suit? I feel
like you walked out like who's the corporate guy? And
then you took off your jacket. Yes, I did because
I won't be able to see my dad next week
because he's going to camping for Father's Day. I surprised
me today and went to church. Popped up here in
your Sunday's best well half of it. Just the blazer.
(14:57):
Get your church shoes on right now, I got my
air maxes. Come on, man, man, you're screeching in the
halls of the church where your sneakers on. Let me
tell you what adds insult to the pastor hadn't seen
him since he was right for you? Um, this is
what adds insult to the injury. Again, if you're piecing
the story together. Robbie Cano's first game for the El
(15:20):
Passo chi Wa was SpongeBob Night, so he had to
wear the SpongeBob Bob jersey, which is like funny but
embarrassing at the same time. Something about that just hits
hits and makes it more embarrassing. Remember one time when
we were on ESPN. We we did a TV show,
believe it or not, every night on ESPN, right, and
there was one night on Halloween they made us where
(15:42):
like where Toy Story costumes. Remember that. By the way,
I'll post this on our Instagram just so you could
play along. I swear to you man, there's there's like
no exaggeration here. I was buzz light Year. I was
supposed to be buzz light Year, Bunk light Year, Buzz
week Year. By the way, I think there's a new
Buzz light your movie out right. Yeah, I was Buzz
(16:03):
light Year, and Rich was Woody, right, the Cowboy. And
they made us wear these costumes because it was Halloween
on ESPN. But we're on TV, so the makeup people
there put all this makeup on me and I'm wearing
a stupid costume. I'm a grown man, I'm a dad,
and I'm wearing a stupid buzz light Year outfit, right,
and then they put the weakest makeup on me possible. Now,
(16:25):
what added insult to the injury was the fact that
I look so ridiculously dumb, you know what I mean, Like, yeah,
I'm on TV, Yeah I'm having fun, Yeah I'm doing whatever.
Hey I'm making money, right, But I looked so dumb
that when I came to the studio, everyone laughed and
be like, yo, dude, you don't have to do this.
You look ridiculous, you look terrible. And just the feeling
of knowing that you look stupid and you look silly
(16:47):
and like what am I doing? Like I'm better than this.
That's how Robbie Cano has to feel, like, yeah, I know,
this is the step back, my journey back to Earth,
the the level and back of embarrassment inside. Noing that
he was once wearing major league uniforms and was a Yankee.
Now he's wearing a SpongeBob looks like SpongeBoy pajamas. Basically
(17:09):
just has to hit him. Is embarrassing? All right? Your

That's that's you. Yeah, that's me. You might have saw

not the wait, Sarah, weren't you just hear no, no, no,

with those of the mustache. No, no, no, no, it
(18:39):
wasn't me anyway, perhaps you know me from the store.
But thank you for being here, Covino and Rich and
we're talking about Robbie Cano. As we are talking about
Robbie Cano, you brought up your boy Nestor Nasty Nestor bro.
I think it's this week at Yankee Stadium, just the
irony that he's been so lights out. He's the one
loss I think the Yankee had like two weeks, it seems.
(19:01):
I think they're eleven of their last twelve or ten
of their last eleven. Yeah, and he's the only loss.
He got lit up by Iowa Sam's twins, right, so hey,
they got some bats. But Robbie Cano, former Yankee, is
who we're discussing it. And I gotta make it very
very clear from my standpoint again, I'll give you the
(19:22):
scoop and then we'll go to the phones. Now, it's
your your time to chime in Okay eight seven seven
ninety nine on Fox eight seven seven ninety nine On Fox,
Robinson Cano played his first minor league games since two
thousand and five, excluding rehab assignments on SpongeBob Night, so
he made his debut on on a specialty nights, SpongeBob Night.
For the l Passo chi wahwas well added insult to
(19:44):
injury is the ridiculous SpongeBob uniform. But there's a lot
of people that like to be honest. These jerseys go hard.
But then there's a lot of people saying, you know,
they were ribbing him at the game, like, yo, man,
aren't you the guy that used to be Robbie Cano?
And that's what makes it like in Angels in the
outfield when the kids like you used to be Mel
Clark and Tony Dance is like used to the same
(20:08):
thing Mel Clark. But here here's what I want to
be clear on, Like, you know, Danny Danny g made
a good point. Hey, we've all hit rock bottom, but
we've all been there, right, you ever hit the rocks bottoms.
There's a lot of squads of rock spots, rocks Bottom
bickiny bottom, bickiny bottom. So who's the all star at
(20:33):
bikini bottom? Robinson Canoe, this guy used to be a Yankee. Listen,
listen to these stats real quick. Even with his Dodo
years with the Mets and that that that stretch with
the Padres twelve games, his career average is still three
oh one, seventeen years in the big leagues, almost twenty
seven hundred hits. How many home runs? Three thirty five
(20:55):
career home runs? And then you're making it seem like
he always stunk in the last span, Like look at
the the COVID year he bettered, he had a three sixteen. Yeah,
this is a quick fall from grace. That's my point is,
and I just want to be clear on this. We've
all hit rock bottom. I believe in second chances. What
(21:17):
makes this embarrassing is not only the SpongeBob jersey. What
makes this embarrassing because he did this to himself. He
brought this upon himself, you know, the whole steroid scandal.
It would be fun to root for him if it
wasn't for the steroid thing. Yeah, and I and I
still root for him. Bro. I love Robbie Canoe again
as a Yankee fan. I loved him and I still
(21:39):
root for him. But to say it's not embarrassing. What
makes an embarrassing is he brought this on himself. We've
all lost our jobs, we've all had to come back
at one point. It's when it's the fact that he
did it to himself. Let's go to the phones eight
seven seven ninety nine on Fox. Rich says, it's not embarrassing.
It's actually a great story. I mean not that it's
(21:59):
not a bad thing. I just think that for any
of us to criticize, yeah, it's easy to be like
looking at him with a stupid SpongeBob jersey. Yeah, humiliating.
The guy was a Yankee All Star, World champion. You
know what, none of us played in the bigs. None
of us are able to say we've made hundreds of
millions of dollars playing a kid's games. His legacy to
(22:19):
But that's It's like when a guy doesn't want to
walk away and fans like, yeah, he should retire, says
who you, Oh, he's really hanging out, Yeah, says you.
I get it. His legacy, his decisions, but his decisions
were crappy ones, and that's what got him here, think
of guys that keep playing. Not Tom Brady like other
guys were like, man, is he's going for it? Huh,
(22:42):
he's gonna keep playing, Okay, because most people that's their
whole life. Robbie Cannal wants one more shot, Shane and
the moin what's up? Man? You're on being on rich? Hey,
how's it going? Guys? Are you feeling Robbie cannot or
is it humiliating? He was a Mariner? I mean, like,
how much more humiliating? Does it really? Get? Good points?
(23:03):
A great point. If Major League Baseball had relegations, the
Mariners will be the first team out. Kim Griffey Jr.
Saved the team from collapsing, right they where they didn't?
They say, if Griffy didn't win a playoff series back
in the nineties, that team was going to be done. Yeah,
could high school the last time they were in the playoffs?
All right, let me give it, thank you. Man. Look,
(23:25):
there's still the big leagues though, right the Mariners think,
I get it. But he's still a big league player
with a stellar resume. It's like, you know, the end
of Mike Tyson's career, man, Right, he said when he
lost to Danny Williams and you're like, who. And then
he lost to Kevin McBride and he's like, I just
don't have to fight me anymore. And it's not the
same guy once was, but he was doing it for
(23:47):
the money. He was like, Robinson Cano is better than that.
You don't want to see. You don't want to see
your heroes go out like that. You just don't. So
let's go to Boston. Boston, Scott, you're on the Cavino
and Rich Show. Hey, Bud, what are you think anyway? Uh?
Look at that both ways. I mean to a point
(24:09):
where if he just genuinely doesn't care about his legacy
or whatever been good for him, he's getting up in
trying again he's failed. But at the same time, it's like,
you created a legacy, Just leave it alone, because I
just draws it more attention to the steroid use. You know,
you know, you know, Scott. If if Robbie Kno cares
about honestly things like autograph signings and Hall of Fames
(24:32):
and you know, the materialistic after you play stuff, then
this is a bad look. Could he ruin his chances
for the Hall of Fame? Yeah? But what I'm saying
is if he doesn't if he doesn't care, if he
doesn't care, if he's like, how could he not care?
He did? He dedicated his entire life since he was
a little kid in the Dominican Republic playing baseball. How
could he possibly? Maybe maybe he's scared for what's next,
(24:55):
because maybe this is his whole life. He right, he
played since he was a little boy in the Dominican Republic.
Chase's dream made hundreds of millions of dollars. And the
minute he says it's over, then he might be sort
of honestly, as a man, he might be scared of
what's next. Possibly, and little did he know as a
SpongeBob Jersey Richard in Michigan, you're on can be by
(25:18):
the way, it's probably gonna be like a high selling
people probably want that now as Hey, I'm not hating
not SpongeBob, which just you know, made made the story
that juicy, right, Richard was up. I was wondering if
you think of esh uh, the retired to Jersey. No.
(25:40):
Look how they treat the rocket Roger Clemens at Yankee Stadium.
It's like he never existed, you know what I mean?
You think they're gonna embrace him with open arms. Not
right now. They don't need that negative attention right and
they also don't need any bats the Yankees that they
have like Matt carpenters like, hey, can I be on
the team. I'm gonna hit like a home run every day.
He hit two today. I know he's got six now
the power of the that's a comeback story. Hey, listen,
(26:02):
what happened to Matt Carpenter? Right? He'll tell you he
had all these all star years with the Cardinals. He said,
I fell off a cliff. I forgot how to hit.
It was like falling off a cliff. I just forgot.
I don't know. He got in his head, he forgot
how to hit. Nobody wanted him. Worked on a swing,
worked his way back. Yankees saw something in his in
(26:24):
his swing. It's good for that Porch brought him back.
Six dogs dingers dinger is probably a better word. Sixdingers
in ten games. Just a record. It's a record. Six
Matt Carpenter with a mustache now hitting bombs. So that's
a nice comeback story. Robinson, good know did this to himself.
(26:48):
You know, I'm he was a great dude. Just just
from my own sanity, Just for my own sanity, if
someone could figure out what is going on in my
big stupid nogging on one basketball, football, baseball. I'm trying.
Just in the last day or so, someone that's on
the borderline of like should they hang it up or
(27:08):
not recently said now I still feel like I got it.
I'm gonna keep playing. And I remember thinking like, oh wow, yeah,
it is their legacy to decide. And I can't think
of who the hell it was, but shut it was
in an interview where someone's like, yeah, I think I like, listen,
I still I still feel like I could do it.
And I'm like, what did I watch over the past
couple of days? Think about it? Think of, um, I
(27:29):
don't know if this is us. Did it happen on,
this didn't happen on? Well, let me think about it.
Steve the Sager, my guy, what's going on? Hello? You
mentioned Matt Carpenter or the Yankees second player in the
modern era to have six of his first seven hits
of a season be home runs. It's crazy to watch, man,
(27:52):
It's great. That's a fun story. That's a sad story. Yeah,
let's not go overboard. I know, you have a Yankees
fan background, and that's what pushing this. But let's not
over go overboard and talk about the legacy of Robinson Canoe.
He's got seventeen years in the big leagues. This superstar
is guy most hits in a decade. You know, his
legacy is established. Wearing a uniform one particular night is
(28:15):
really not going to affect things, no, but it magnifies
that steroid. You know, why is he there in the
first place? Man, That's what it magnifies to that that's
a good question. Makes someone a little bit like a clown, right.
That's sort of about yeah, but so did some of
the NFL old uniforms that they made. Players were honestly anyway.
Carpenter with two homers in the Mets one again eighteen
(28:37):
to four over the Chicago Cubs. Aaron Judge three more hits,
three eighteen batting average this year. The Mets are in
action right now and leading in Anaheim to one against
the Angels in the top of the fifth inning. As
for the Dodgers, bad weekend at San Francisco, Giants shut
them out today to nothing. Carlos Rodan the winning pitcher
the loss to Julio Rieus, who gave up a couple
(28:59):
of homers in first did wind up with ten strikeouts.
Colorado beat San Diego four to Boston got a late
two r on homer from raphael'd evers in a too
nothing win at Seattle. Atlanta won it's eleventh straight game,
five three over the Pirates, who lost six in a row.
Phillies finally lost lost at home thirteen to one to Arizona.
Milwaukee finally won four one at Washington. Josh Hayter with
(29:20):
his nineteenth save Cleveland and Toronto with wins in twelve innings.
Texas got an eight six victory at the White Sox
and wins on the road for Baltimore and Tampa Bay
Cincinnati as well. At Houston, the Astros beat Miami nine
to four, Justin Verlander the win. He's eight and two
with any are of one point nine for Notre Dame.
(29:41):
Today one at number one ranked Tennessee to advance to
the College World Series. NBA Finals Game five is tomorrow
night at Golden State Hockey. Stanley Cup Finals starts Wednesday.
Daniel Suarez won the NASCAR race at Sonoma on the
road course. Rory McElroy took the Canadian Open on the
PGA Tour with the final round sixty Tour at sixty
to that got him not only the wind, but about
(30:02):
one point five million dollars. Yesterday, Charles Schwartzel won the
new Live Golf event and earned a total of four
point seven five million dollars for the week, over three
times what McElroy just got. In fact, even second place
at that new event got about two point nine million dollars.
Back to you. By the way, Daniel Suarez Vato, local
(30:22):
NASCAR driver, Yeah, I looked him up. He's the first,
is that true? The first born in Mexico to win
in the Cup Series. That's worthy life from the meats.
You know your your dita would have been up, dude
(30:43):
if I have a sad tone to you and himI
Mungia with the big win, nice weekend for the locals
for ever, so I hope you enjoyed your fights and
your baseball and rich You know what I figured out
what makes this worse because you know, Steve to say
you did make a good point right, doesn't define his legacy.
But when things go viral like that, it's like the
Michael Jordan's cry face like Michael Jordan's a legend, right,
(31:05):
but he didn't eat that? Did he really need to
cry face to like stain it even a little bit?
Like Robbie can. We live in a world where it's
all over the people are jumping on what's the next
meme or what's the next embarrassing thing. Robbie Cano is
just lucky he didn't in SpongeBob pajamas is pretty bad.
Imagine if you like tripped in the sponge job in
(31:27):
the SpongeBob uniform, like that would have been you know,
it would have been better. Yeah, I don't even know.
His stant line for the night one for five was
okay for Robbie Cano is a is a SpongeBob chia one? Now?
Is it awesome? Because he's on his way back, he's
humbled and he hasn't given up? Or is it embarrassment?
It's up to you to wrap it up. I sort
(31:47):
of like his I like his persistence because you don't
when was the last time he saw a legend. I
don't want to use the word legend that at all.
Star a World Series champion of Robbie Cano's caliber, Robbie,
you know, would have been a legend. That's the thing.
That's why was the last time you saw a guy
of his caliber except a minor league assignment. Most of
(32:10):
them like, nah, right, right, that's the thing. And by
the way, I remembered who and I didn't need help.
I put on my thinking cap and I watched the
pretty cool miked up. I love when they do that
in baseball. Now more miked up. I love it. One
of the best guys in baseball, one of the one
of the good men of Major League Baseball Cincinnati read
Joey Vat, Joey Vato. He's not a Vat, He's not
(32:34):
He's just a Votto, Joey Vado, joe who is just
great with fans, great with the kids. These you know,
he's on social media being funny. Now. He was saying, listen,
I'm thirty eight years old and I still want to play.
I still feel like I could play. He's only betten
to twelve. And here's what's gonna drive Corvino in saying,
because Cavino, I know, he has like some crazy stats, right,
(32:56):
and he's close to a lot of miles. This is
this is something that will drive Steve Cavino. If you
know Caveno. You'll know this will drive him insane. As
of right now, he's betting two twelve, which is way
below you know, the standard of a joe of Joey Vado,
and he's creeping him under three hundred lifetime or something
as we speak. Currently, his lifetime batting average is exactly
(33:17):
three hundred right now. So if Joey Vado retired, go like,
that's like two oh eight this year, so you should
for you just root for Joey Vado to bat over
to twelve because that'll mean his lifetime's over three hundred.
But yeah, hey, listen, man, you make it. He's one
of those likable guys. And they asked him, they go
Joey And I heard him on Dan Patrick to a
lot of people will be like, yo, the Hall of Famer,
(33:39):
you're gonna walk away? What are you doing? The Dan
Patrick from Fox Sports Radio. He was also in the
movie Hustle, the Adam Sandler number one movie on Netflix. Hustle. Yeah,
that Dan Patrick, that Dan Patrick. Good for him. Then
he said you wanted covets like his Dantes, so um
guy like Vado was saying, listen, I love the game.
(34:01):
I still feel like I could play. I like playing,
I like being around the guys. I like I like
being a ballplayer. So when people like, hey, you're gonna retire,
he's like, I know, I don't really want to. So
I get it. I get it, alright. So, just as
total side note, as we watched the Mets and the
Angels go at it and Rich, I want to hear
about your experience at the game. Oh yeah, I went
to the angel I took my daughter to her second
(34:23):
game because we had a great time. Last made some
good observations, right, So when some observations about my observation
about Starling Marte spark plug for the team when he's
not playing, they don't have that, such a spark plug.
But this dude wears a medium jersey to look more jack.
I know it's a great I know he's ripped, but
(34:44):
use it the past couple of weeks. No, no, I'm
telling you my observation Starling Marte, who's jacked. He's ripped.
I get all that. Where's a jersey smaller than he should?
He tells the uniform Matt manager like, no, get once
once more or they him his Uh, I know he's
he's he's got guns. I get it, but he definitely
(35:06):
has his sleeves hemmed in tighter than normal baseball players.
I have thoughts on my experience last night. We'll get
to that next, and we will talk about crazy weirdo fans.
If if you think I'm talking about you, I might
be so more. Caveno and rich Next, thank you guys
for hanging Fox Sports Radio. Cavino and rich A seven
(35:27):
seven ninety nine on Fox. We want to call and
say what's up? Says shout out Daniel Suarez, NASCAR winner,
Talk some fights, talk more baseball, more nonsense. That's what
we do. Of course tomorrow Game five. You know I
gotta you know, I totally forgot this. Oh man. We
(35:48):
got so much to you know, we got a lot
to get too, So I do want to make sure
I say this first off, Bobo and Danny J. Steve
to say good love working with you guys. You guys
are great, got a great team here at Fox Sports Radio.
U No, no, no, what are you doing it? No? No,
because I don't know. We got so much to talk about.
I don't want to not say that. The Hustle movie
(36:09):
on Netflix is so worth the watch. Guys. It's like
Rocky if Rocky was about basketball and you said, there's
a lot of good na. The cameos are endless, right,
And I gotta say that Adam Sandler in a serious role.
He's a basketball scout in the movie. I'm not giving
anything away, no spurlers, but it's number one trending. I
(36:32):
don't know what that means. I don't know if that's
at all BS, but it was great. I didn't expect
it to be that good. Kenny Smith is fantastic, Juan Show,
Hernan Gomez is fantastic, Anthony Edwards the basketball Player fantastic.
You know what, it wasn't fantastic Bill Burr's comedy special
because it wasn't a comedy special. I watched it and
(36:53):
I'm like, oh, I love Bill Burr. And then after
like ten and it's like, hey, here's my friends. I'm like,
this guy needs new friends. I du I know, I
got duke. Amy Schumer has especial with the same thing.
It's like Amy Schumer's friends. I got so dupe that
that's the thing. Now. Yeah, I thought Bill Burr, I
get it. They're trying to elevate their people. I know
they had that. Netflix is a Joe Comedy Festival. No,
(37:13):
it's and they did a lot of those. But there's
a lot of stand up comedians that are now bringing
out their friends to pop up, like um, who did it?
My boys South with Chico being Carlos Miller and they're
from a while and out they did a comedy thing
out here for Netflix is a joke. They had their friends.
Marlon Wayain's just did the same thing. It's like Marl
Way new stand up but it's him and friends. Yea,
(37:35):
it's weird. I don't want to see them. You know.
It's a new hustle. You don't even have to love
basketball to love the star power in this movie. And
and here's my last observation. Rich Usually when when athletes
turn actor, they stink and it's noticeable. It was. It
was just good. And if we have time, I'll talk
more about it, but make a note of it. Tonight
(37:56):
you got nothing going on. And Bill Burr, you guys
love me. It's five minutes now, that's my friend. Yeah,
we want, we want you, Bill Bert. The whole thing. Well,
we also have to get the NBA Finals Game five tomorrow.
I wish it was tonight, but tomorrow, and I have
to tell you about my Game four experience because there's
a funny story that goes along with it. But let's
(38:16):
go to your phones. Mike, New York City. You're on
Rich What's up? Extras from neck Piece one? And I
don't know how we stop? Said he take it three
from like almost have four circus shot. I think you
(38:39):
should be in on the planning process how to stop
Steff Dude is like a he's a globetrotter at his guy.
It's insane what he does, it really is. It's ridiculous.
He takes how he takes them, floats them up, they
go in and you know what, I'm as impressive to
me as I mean, maybe not as impressive, but his
three point range we all know was one handed floaters.
(39:02):
I'm not just lost. And it's automatic. Every's man. It's
like the equivalent of when like Kareem had the hook,
the skyhook, like it's his own little patented move. Tom
in Orlando comping on Rich What's up? Hill, Hey, I
just want to let you guys know that I think,
you know, I think he's illusional, but he's the closest
three thousand and the majors, you know, he's he's three
(39:25):
hundred away. He's not gonna make it. He's not even
if he got back in the majors, he's not gonna play.
And he's not gonna He's got I said around, he's
got twenty six thirty five. Yeah. Yeah, you're talking about
two seasons of like one eight not happening. Yeah. Well,
you know what though, Tom, when you think about justice
(39:49):
being served and the the irony of it is that
if he wasn't suspended for two different spans and there
was no Covid, we're talking about something he'd probably be
closing in on. Hmm. So he you know, he did
it to himself and Covid. All right, Well, hey, thanks
for the call. Tom. When you get to more of
your phone calls, more of your phone calls, and I
want to hear Rich your your story about the Angels experience.
(40:12):
I had had an angelic experience, and we'll talk some
NBA finals. Can't wait more coming Unrich next on Fox
Sports Radio. Hit us up at Covino and Rich. Yeah, boddies,
Fox Sports Radio. Cavino and Rich, hope you're having a
great weekend. I hope you enjoyed your fights, your boxing
(40:35):
hopefully enjoyed a little time by the pool or lake
or beach, wherever the hell you live, because it's a
nice weekend most places hot though hot here, hot and
sticky in Los Angeles. But yeah, I hope you had
a great weekend. I hope you enjoyed that movie Hustle
I was talking about on Netflix Sandler's Back. That's the
best Sandley movie I've seen in a minute. And thank
you guys for hanging out with us eight seven seven
(40:56):
nine nine on Fox at Covino and Rich. If there's
anything you want to say. At Covino and Rich, we're
gonna talk about the game tomorrow, Game five Boston at
Golden State, and a bunch of other nonsense. But I
do want to say we're also streaming live right now
so you can see what we're doing at Covino and Rich. Hey, Hey,
Carl's Hey, listeners, what's up? Hey? So you can see
(41:18):
it at Covino Rich now or later. But I appreciate
all the feedback. You gotta tell us about your your
Angels Mets experience. You went to another game, Well, my
daughters is five, and I was like, wow, she really
had a good time at the Dodgers game, and I'm like,
did she like it because dad liked it or did
(41:39):
she actually enjoyed She's like, we got to another game,
and she kept asking. So I said, you know what,
the Mets are still in town there on the West Coast,
Angels Saturday night, it's fireworks, not at the stadium. Let's
do it. So my son's a little too young, and
my wife was like, we'll stay home, just go with
your daughter. So I went with my daughter to the
(42:01):
Angels Mets last night. And I gotta tell you my
first observation pulling into the parking lot, friendly old guy
like eighty years old, Hey man, that will be ten dollars.
My name Enno, And I'm thinking to myself, already one
third of the price of a Dodgers parking lot. Everyone there,
(42:26):
and this is no knock on Angels fans. I just
don't see the passionate fan base. You'd see it like
a Dodgers game or Yankees or Red Sox or Mets
because you got that family friendly vibe where it's not
across the street from and by the way, people don't
realize it's like down the block from Disneyland, right. That's
why I said, Japanno was the old guy working that
was that was the tieing Thank you. I thought the
(42:48):
old guy from up was gonna look at my ticket.
Mr Frederickson, thank you. So I go into the stadium
and it's beautiful. It really is the rocks and the
little fountains in center field. If they got a good
vibe going on there, like if you don't feel like
spending a ton of money. We were saying, how Dodger Stadium,
While it's the Dodgers and clearly they have a big franchise,
(43:09):
Dodgers fans are there to see their team kick ass,
and it's a It's also like the Lakers can be nowhere.
No celebrity or somewhat important or hot girl or anyone's
going through an Angels game like the Dodgers, where you go,
it's almost like going to a Lakers game versus a
Clippers game basically. But you do have some star power
(43:30):
on the Angels. And you know, I'm glad you said
that because my second, the second observation was for all
the star power the Angels do have. How to Mets fans, Wow,
I mean, that's just odd about it. You get two
of the best two of the best players in the
MLB on the Angels, you know, Tony and Mike Trout.
(43:50):
You know. So that's the that's the whole issue in
the nutshells, like you gotta be more competitive, the fans
gotta be more competitively call their hot dogs angel dogs.
It's just it's not a Dodger dog. It's not a dog.
But so, yeah, you know, it was with my daughter.
We had a hot pretzel and hot dog. You did
the whole like you know, parent kid experience. But here's
(44:12):
my thought as I'm sitting there small talking with Angels fans.
Is everyone's real friendly. No one's rude, no one Like
you go to a Yankees game or a Red Sox
game or a Mets game on the East Coast, like
people are rude to the visiting fans, Like if you
sit down, did you see the Yankees destroying your your
(44:32):
ex pound Noah sinder Guard when he was in the Bronx.
Oh my god, it's a nightmare. I don't know how
he tuned them out. So the fans are super nice.
Does it feel being back in the city. You couldn't
handle you bom all these Angel fans sweethearts, Hey, that's
nice though, I'm having a good time with my kid.
(44:54):
She's enjoying it, so, you know, I guess from the
lame dad perspective like, I'm just happy my kids having
a fun time. I don't know how she stayed away
for the fireworks, whole separate story that we don't have
to share, but I was like, yeah, she's gonna conk
ount we loved it. Is it weird? Here's my question
for everyone eight seven, seven, nine nine on Fox. Because
it's a regular season game in mid June, is it
(45:16):
crazy for me, a die hard Mets fan, to say
that I love the game even though the Mets lost.
In fact, I think the beautiful time with your daughter
trump's any outcome of the stupid Mets game. Well, because
it's a mid June, like games seventy or eighty of
(45:37):
a year, right, you were in the middle of the
dog days of summer, as they say, so my thought
is this could be No. I went to the game.
It was eleven six. The Angels beat the Mets last night. Well,
Jared Walsh had a big day. Jared Walsh hit for
the cycle, which is, by the way, the fact that
you were there to witness that it's very rare. That's
pretty awesome to trout home runs in Otani home run,
(46:00):
Pete Alonso home run, and in the ninth inning when
the Mets, when the Mets had a ratley in the
ninth inning, they put some kid up major league debut
hits a home run and it's first that bad so
and fireworks. So is it crazy to say that I
prefer the outcome? If you told me, what do you prefer?
(46:21):
All that you and your kid got to see Otani, Trout,
Alonso hitting home runs, the cycle, fireworks night, this whole
crazy fun night. If you told me what if the
Mets wanted like a two nothing pitchers duel, I think
I had more fun even though they lost. It's a
question I would I would never question, like your fandom
kind of fan? Are you who cares? You had a great,
(46:43):
great time? And I said that that Trump's everything. My
mom my mom back on the East Coast is like
if when the Mets, if they make the playoffs, are
you gonna take your daughter Emmy? And I'm like, no,
I won't because I feel like that's playoff baseball. Yeah,
you has mit, do you think your daughter care? She
didn't care spending time with that, she said she because
(47:03):
I guess the Mets don't like winning on Saturday. Is
that because we went last weekend they lost to so
Danny j you follow if you feel me or what?
Because you're a big Dodgers fan, you're a big Raiders fan. Now,
Raiders only sixteen games. I get it. You don't want
to see any loss. But in a sport where the
best team loses like sixty plus games, don't you said?
Rather the fun game? I can understand it with baseball,
(47:25):
except if you're playing your rival. Yes, if it's like Yankees,
Red Sox, no way. If it's like Cardinals Cubs, no way.
If I'm visiting some of my family that lives up
in northern California and we go to the Giants Ballpark
and they beat the Dodgers and even though it was
a good day, I'm not gonna say that was great,
even though my team was, that's great. You know what
(47:46):
I root for more than the Yankees or any team victory. Honestly,
you know what I root for. It more just for
everyone have a nice time, you know, because so many
things could go wrong. Someone can step on your shoes,
someone could key your car, you get a flat tire.
Your kid could be in a mood. He could have
a he or she can have them melt down. You
know someone's not getting along with somebody else. You know,
you just you're reading for a good time. Yeah, I'm
(48:07):
rooting for a good time. I agree, But you get
to go out and enjoy yourself. You just want everyone
to be on their best behavior, have a great night,
and look back and say, you know, it wasn't that
a wonderful time. We made some good memories. But any
victory as far as I agree with your optimism. But
Danny right, Danny's right. If it was Mets Phillies and
I drove down to Philadelphia and it was a bunch
(48:28):
of loud mouth a Philly guys like no, no, and
I would never want them to win a game. But
the Angels are as the Angels are as close to
like friendly opposition, Like are the Angels the least threatening
team at all sports? Think about it, like, is there
anything threatening about the California Angels? Like I actually was, like, honey,
(48:50):
we got to see Mike Trout, who's really good, and
Otani hit home runs. Yeah, the Mets lost, but you
know what the Mets still got the best records, so
it's all good. We got to see fireworks. I mean,
call me a corny dat now, but just watching it,
I'm just corny period. I think watching in the studio,
watching a midseason game, like all right, if you go
to a baseball game, if you go to a baseball
(49:12):
if you go to a basketball game and your team loses,
but you get to see Lebron or Booker or Jana's
put up fifty to the game too, I'm not wearing
flipups too. I'm surprised, shameful, right, I'm saying at the
business place discussed rich you could take you ever take
(49:35):
your kid. I've done this, taking my kid to Lego Land.
So you're you're you're Disneyland whatever, but this is Lego
Land specifically. You know, you drive all the way there
to Carl's band. It's like a two hour drive, but
you're trying to hype them all up here. We're going
to Lego Land, and just because the kid wants to
be a kid, and then they're crying about some nonsense
that ruins the whole day, you know what I mean.
(49:57):
I remember family vacations. We on the East County would
go to like Hershey Park or sess to me place.
All takes is one sibling to be a pain in
the act. The vacation is like, as a parent, it's
the most deflating feeling. You know what, We're gonna go home,
you know what. I'm here lego for you, and because
you're so frustrated because you're doing you're not there for you,
like I want to go to there for them. Yeah
(50:17):
you think I'm I did this for you and you're
here pounding crying because then he gives you an ice
cream I don't know whatever in the cases, so the
fact that your daughter lasted to firework night firework night
and was having a great time. She was on her
best behavior and he had a great dude, I know
this is I know this isn't who cares. I know
this isn't the platform for sentimental conversations, but you know what,
(50:39):
my daughter said that best night ever. And I was like,
you're gonna tell me? And I was like, you know what,
losing the Mets lost, honey, You're stupid five year old
brain doesn't get it. The Mets wolf. What am I
gonna say? And plus watching Otani hit a bomb that
guy swing watching Mike Trout get back. How does Sterling
marthe's biceps looking person. He did not play back. He's
(51:01):
back today, He's back today. I'm sorry off the I
L Well, you know what rich perfect transition because and
we'll take your phone calls if you guys have any
thoughts on this one. More observations that I that I
hit up Danny G with how do you feel about
dudes at the game or women watching watching watching another
sport on their phone while they're at the game. There
are a lot of people watching the Rangers Lightning game six,
(51:24):
And do you don't say just stay home watching on
your TV? Like or is it, Hey, I got the tickets,
I'm not gonna waste them. What do you think, Danny
J Obviously it's because it's a playoff game. But I
would rather be at home watching that other one of
my favorite teams in the playoff game. Then, uh, you know,
insignificant regular season baseball game. I'd rather be at home
(51:47):
with the big screen watching the playoff game. Yeah, and
you see that all the time. If there's some other
sport playoff happening, You'll see people at the game on
their phone, Like here they are there there at the ballpark?
Are you? And I were at the garden one time
for a Knicks game on the East Coast, and I
remember there's something else going on. We're like, look at
all these other people are paying money to go to
the Knicks game, not mad at it, and they're watching
(52:10):
the weddings where people you know, we're watching the fight.
I mean, that is true. Someone paid fifty grads, have
all their friends and family come around, and you're watching
somebody fighting. That's different as guys were forced to go
to the weddings. That is true. That is true. You know,
I'm not that mad at it, but I get what
you're saying, like taking the moment, I get all that idea.
(52:30):
You know, it's the difference between riches experience at the
Dodgers game and the family friendly fun time he had
at the Angels game. And you know what the mu
because both games your Mets lost and you and Emmy
are owing to this season. But you know, speaking of fans,
I know you wanted to touch on the Rangers fans.
I do, and you know what. To wrap up that
(52:52):
last thought, though, there's something so to what Danny G said.
I don't want to I don't want to brush over that.
If your team is playing another team you hate, you'll
never feel good about your team losing. Mets, Philly Yankees,
Red Sox, Cardinals, Cubs, you name the rivalry you're not yeah, Giants, Dodgers,
(53:12):
no way, but there's something they are like not quote
non threatening teams. And if they're the California Angels, Yeah,
but you're projecting your garbage on your kid. Do you
think your kid cares? Your kid is all about I'm
with dad, Yeah, and I'm having a blast and yeah,
then you're gonna tarnish her experience or your kids experience
(53:33):
because you're you know, you were mad about it. And
the fact that it's I'm telling you, you're rooting for
the good time. Trump's everything. And the fact that it's
June twelve and we're not even at the All Star
break yet, and there's a hundred and sixty two games.
If your team loses, but it's a great game, you
have phone with your family or your girl. Damn. Yeah.
Like let's say you catch a foul ball, you're on
the kiss cam with your girl, but your team loses
(53:53):
in June, get over your team. That's a hundred games left.
Relax all. Now, my my other thought before before we
have to take a break, is we all saw it.
We all saw the scummy Rangers fan punched the Lightning
fan in the face. Right. Is that hasn't got viral
enough where we've all seen it. You saw it, okay,
(54:16):
spots lea the Lightning fans at the garden walking down
the ramp, even if he's happened. The Ranger fan turns
around south Pop By the way, did you notice that
takes like a left hook at the guy, cold cocks him,
knocks him out. The guy is unconscious for three minutes,
(54:38):
comes to and he thinks he fell. He's like, what
did I fall? Like, Oh my god, it's terrible. They
hunt this kid down, arrested. People all encourage this guy.
You press charges. This guy sucker punched you in the face.
He's been banned from all events forever. This doesn't happen
at a Angels games. No, those fans are Angels, they're
(55:02):
Angels fans. I didn't see anyone doing the uh I didn't.
I didn't see anyone doing the Angels in the outfield
arm thing either, No rally monkeys either. Um, but the guy,
the kid's been banned rightfully so from every Madison Square
Garden event ever. And there's two I always have two thoughts, like,
hell they ever know? Like do they face recognition technology?
They don't. But I guess he's taking a chance, right.
(55:24):
I don't know how they do that. I never knew.
I never understood that your bantram Yeah you mean old
guy or or a teenager that scans away tickets. Uh,
you know, got like a wanted listed from the like
come on, Danny, I guess you're taking a chance that
if you ever do get in trouble again, you're ft.
I guess is that what it is? I mean, all
you'd have to do is put the Bobby Valentine on
(55:46):
and walk right in there staking at which there was
in the mean disguise. It was the anniversary of that
just the other day, the Bobby Valentine mustache. There's some ramification.
I don't know. I think it's really like if you
get caught, you getting you get putting jail or something,
you know, your band, So it's like having a warrant
out for your arrest kind of. So if you get
in trouble at a game, and maybe you do some
(56:07):
time and then big house. I don't know. I don't
know how that works. The clink, the who scale, I
don't know, joint, I don't know what happens. So my
thought is this for fans that chicken, you look familiar,
not me. Wasn't it four years ago you were banned
(56:27):
from a game we who done the chicken? So my
thought is this what the ultimate punishment for this guy
should be. He's so passionate about the stupid Rangers that
he punched the guy in the face and knocked him out.
The Rangers should release a statement with this guy's picture
saying this is our suckiest fan and we don't want
him to be a fan like they there. If you
want to humiliate this guy the right way, that's what
(56:47):
you do. What does he care about so much? Honestly,
that's stupid teaming roots for I believe an eye for
an eye punched him back in the face. That stop
thinking about it. What would but what would hurt this
guy's feelings most? He plunched some guy in the face
over a hockey game. I think that's a win win.
So if the Rangers did that, the Rangers, this guys,
lie'll stop that type of behavior. The Rangers should get
(57:08):
this guy's bug shot post. It will be like, hey,
this guy, he's our weakest fan and we don't want
him rooting for us anymore. That would be great. It's
not a bad idea, So alright, rich More next, or
does it draw attention? Fox Sports Radio Covino and Rich Yeah,
talking about crampy fans That Rangers fan knocked down the
(57:32):
Lightning fan. Hey, Lightnings Lightning fans got the last laugh,
so yeah, congratulations to them. Is Fox Sports Radio A
seven seven ninety nine on Fox A seven seven ninety
nine on Fox, at Covino and Riches where you can
hit us up. You can find me at Steve Covino
personally at Steve Coveino at Rich Davis. Welcome to our show.
Spotty's here, Steve, the Singer, Bobo and Danny Gin Fox.
(57:56):
We are not you know, we can't be lion. We're
not big hockey guys. Other than uh, I like Arcade
Dome Hockey. I like Mighty Ducks. Uh I like Slapshot.
I like the movie Goon and Happy Gilmore he loved hockey. No,
but uh pretty cool that the Lightning going for a
three pet It's been a minute since it's been a
(58:18):
three pet in sports, I saw a lot of Rangers
fans looking optimistic about their future, though, saying, you know,
the future looks bright for the Rangers. Yeah, Islanders fans
thought that a couple of years ago. So yeah, you
could get derailed real quick, right, I mean, do you
think what we're getting close? We're getting close and maybe
you're not as close as you think. So well, we
hope you're enjoying your weekend of of hockey and baseball.
(58:41):
We talked about Robbie Canoe first hour. If you missed
any of it Fox Sports Radio dot com. This guy
plays for the El Paso SpongeBob Chiwama's former Yankee, former Mariner,
former Met He's now humiliated himself. That's what we discussed.
Or is he on his come up? Is he on
his comeback? We talked about Richard's experience at the Angels game.
(59:03):
It's a great place, and Danny J. I've been down
there in San Diego. You were while I was at
the Angels game. You were down in Sandago. Yeah, it
was good place. It's Petco Park is beautiful and the
crowd similar to the Angels crowd, very laid back, calm,
southern California. You had no idea who was winning that game.
(59:24):
It was Rockies against the Padres. We stayed for about
half the game and then walked down to the gas
Lamp District and it was a fun night. And you
know it was six dollar seats, beautiful view, uh ten
eleven dollar beer. So much different than I mean, in total,
I probably spent sixty bucks last night. So, I mean
(59:46):
it was way different than the Dodger game. But like
you said earlier in the show, the intensity is way
different too, because every Dodger game here it feels like
a playoff game. Yeah, yeah, there's something too, yeah, and
so the intensity is way different. But it's nice to
experience both stadium if anyone ever gets a chance, if
they're not from the West coast. San Diego is beautiful.
(01:00:07):
The gas Lamp District that Danny G speaks of, great bars,
great restaurants. They got great breakfast spots, the waters right there,
the park, the ballparks, walking distance from all the bars
and everything. It's really a great city to check out
a game in. Um second to only as far as
like convenience of stuff. I was in Milwaukee once and
(01:00:28):
every bar get this dantag. This is great for people
like to have party and watch a game. A lot
of the bars in Milwaukee, it's like if you buy
a drink, they give you a ticket and a little
bus goes around bringing people to the ballpark. So you
go to all the park, you got all the bars
and like I can have a whatever undraft. Now, all right,
(01:00:49):
here's your ticket. What's the taken for the oh, the
shuttle to'll bring you to the game. It's fantastic, so
great you Honestly, when I see people do that commune,
when I see people checking out all the different stadiums,
I feel like that's something so cool to do for baseball.
Definitely someday, maybe in another life or when I'm an
old man, you and I have been like when when
I'm less on the grind rich and I could actually
(01:01:10):
appreciate life. Maybe one dance show on MTV from the nineties,
not that grind without niece, an actual you know, working grind. Yeah,
we get two caught up and work and not enough
of that. We've been to twenty stadiums. You have been
to a lot. Yeah, It's it's definitely a goal. You
know when you when you got some downtime to see
all the ballparks? Is that retirement talk like when you're
(01:01:30):
when you're I had to say old guy, because I
know we've got old listeners. But if you're like sixty
seventy eight year older guy, what probably that should be
something you do, like, Hey, let me check out all
the statis rent a RV and you just travel around
through baseball season and you hit every cark that night,
Or hey, can I just totally shift gears before we
go to the phones? Okay, because one Mexican guy wins Nascart,
(01:01:54):
you're shifting gears now, But what are you? Daniel? So Okay,
not to be all Daniel Suarez on you, Rich, but
I'm gonna sears. All right, what do you got? What
do you got? You were talking about seeing all the ballparks?
(01:02:14):
You bring the ballpark to you. I saw this and
I was like, man, I think you're about to just
read a commercial ballpark. We could bring the ballpark to
you that stub hub dot com because it's ballpark freks
if you have at your local in your local freezer
case if you haven't figured it out yet, can know?
And Rich? We like parks. You like that fun and
talk nonsense. We're fans and we have a specific sort
(01:02:38):
of brand about the game. It's like that doesn't sound
like mako. We'd like to bring the ballpark to you.
I saw this. You know that. You know John Boy, right, Yeah,
he's actually great. He does a great job of I
like his lip reading skills and how he analyzed his
plays and everything. He posted the spot. You might want
to look it up to give us extra details on this,
(01:03:01):
but I'll show you to picture John Boy Media. Give
him some props share on Fox Sports Radio. Dude is
slaying it does a great job. He said, found your
dream home and it hit mekes. I'm like, wow, that
is my dream home. That's awesome or is it like
cheesy and TACKI and childish? Right? And as I said,
why visit all the ballparks? You know, if you build it,
(01:03:21):
build your own, we'll bring your bring him to yours.
There's a two million dollar home in Scottsdale, Scottsdale, Arizona,
for sale, currently for sale. Hold on and it comes again.
This is like for the specific like buyer right, it
comes with a whiffleball field, little mini stadium already there.
(01:03:44):
That's pretty cool. So check you here. Take a look.
Two million dollars Scottsdale, Arizona home, complete with its own
little whiffleball stadium. Yeah, but it has a whiffleball fields. Yeah.
But again, you know, it's like a I don't guess
a specific it has a facade. So answer the simple quot.
It's kind of like some Yankee sort of stuff. But
(01:04:04):
it's not I don't know, Danny J. Bobo's just answer
the simple question. If you if you're balling and you're
buying a house for millions and millions and millions of dollars,
are you getting basketball court, tennis court, indoor basketball court?
Are you putting a little um that with football stage,
put a little batting cage like a whiffootball area? Like
what are you doing? What type of bowling alley in
the house? Like what? Yeah, that's all I love that too, man.
(01:04:27):
But think about the fun you would have with this.
I feel like I wouldn't have fun. You wouldn't see you,
That's what I'm saying. Like specific, Scott, Still, I think
you got to sell it to the guy who's going
to appreciate it. I mean, I guess, you know, it
depends what kind of position the sellers in. But someone
could be yeah, that's great, now I'm gonna tear that down.
This is like for very specific like John Boy himself
(01:04:47):
should buy this well, because they're always playing with When
my wife and I were looking at real estate out
here in l A, one of the real estate agents
was trying to sell me real hard on something and
it was something I wasn't interested in, and that's like
the awkward thing, like yeah, and it also, sir has
this in the yard, a beautiful putting green, And I'm like, yeah,
I'm not really a golfer, but the putting green, I'm like, yo,
(01:05:07):
this isn't it doesn't matter, That's what I'm said. I
think that's how a lot of people feel about whiffleball Field,
Like they're like, sir, I'm like, yeah, I like the pool.
My wife and I don't really love the house. But Sir,
the pudding green, I'm like, yo, quit it with the
pudding green. I don't care. It takes up the entire backyard.
So cool sort of backyard space you have is a
whiffleballs on that though, because it's on Zillo, you can
(01:05:31):
see it. Are there any other specs? It's on John
Boy Media. It's a really nice house. But it has
like a little bigotball stadium in the back. That's see
that's incredible, but again very specific, perfect for any theater inside.
That's how big. How many rooms the house have U
it is five bed, three bath. That's a place where
(01:05:52):
you places you Airbnb. That's not a place that you buy.
You know, if you have kids, though, that would be
like a dream company. Got kids that have the same
interest you and I kid. I'm saying kids that would care. Right,
it's beautiful. It's a beautiful house because otherwise Rich is right,
Like I wasn't. I wasn't thinking about kids because I
was gonna tell you ax throwing would be great for
(01:06:16):
the d I'm gonna need to see the comps in
the area. What happened a little an archery range? No,
but it Rich is absolutely right because certain things are
very specific to the buyer. I was gonna get like
a soundproof booth sort of installed in my house because
I do voice work and broadcasting and things like that.
(01:06:37):
Voice tracking a serious exam. But if I really put
all that money into a specific room, that's very specific.
I said, if you ever sell your condo you're they
gonna need that. You're gonna be like and I got
the state of the art recording studio, which means nothing
unless you're selling to someone in the broadcasting or engineering world.
I got this whole little space to sound proof like
for for for a person that might not care at all,
(01:06:57):
persons like kids I want to scream with. So the
whistleball field is dope, but it's for a specific purchasing. Hey,
I would love that again if I was twelve thirteen
years old, Like you said, all right, well, I have
a story I want to tell about Game four the
NBA Finals as we get ready for Game five tomorrow.
But first, our buddy, Steve the Sager has got an update.
What's up Steve? Hello. We'll get to the Mets in
(01:07:18):
a moment, but you mentioned a few minutes ago had
the Tampa Bay Lightning or in the Stanley Cup Final again,
they're looking for their third straight title. We talked about
this on last night show after A p came out
with a list what franchises can you name since nine
eighty that have won three straight titles? Any of the
more major sports? Can I know? Can I try to
name them all? Please? All right? I know that in
(01:07:40):
hockey the Islanders won four in a row because I
grew up on Long Islands st NBA. We got the
Bulls to three peats, you got the Lakers one three
with Kobe and check. In baseball you got the Yankees thousand.
That's it. And that's it because the the Spurs one
like every other year, and the Patriots won two in
a row. But it incredible. Is I thought maybe there
(01:08:01):
was like a little sneaky one that we're going to
forget or something. But that's it. That's that's amazing, which
means in any of the four major sports, nobody's won
three straight since twenty years ago. Shack and Kobe. Wow,
So yeah, what they're doing is amazing. That's really cool, Steve.
They just won four straight to close out the Rangers,
winning Game six last night, so they enter the Stanley
Cup Final. Tampa Bay does on a winning streak, but
(01:08:23):
they go up against Colorado team that does have home
ice advantage. Game two of the series Saturday night in Colorado.
The final starts on Wednesday. Lightning center Brandon Point probable
to return from injury during the final. He's missed the
last ten games. A guy who had about thirty goals
thirty assist during the season. NBA Finals Game five is
tomorrow night at Golden State. Series tied at two games
(01:08:44):
a piece. Game six will be Thursday at Boston. Now
to the Sunday night ball game, the Mets have tacked
on a run. It's three one at the Angels end
of seven innings, and one of the stat notes from
esp IT is that the Mets have now scored in
the seventh inning or later this year a hundred six runs.
Only the Yankees at one oh seven in the late
(01:09:05):
innings have more in the majors this year, the Yankees
and Mets playing the World Series and the Mets lose,
I want to jump out the window and we're in
the first floor, so I won't even heard. And this
would be a little different than twenty years ago. The Mets,
I mean, they're gonna be forty and twenty two, it
looks like after tonight. And the Yankees record, meanwhile is
even better than that at forty four and sixteen after
(01:09:29):
they pounded the Cubs eighteen to four today, Matt Carpenter
two Homer's seven r b I s Jamison tire on
seven and one after winning today e r a two
point nine, three pitch five innings. Today Boston won to
nothing at Seattle. Raphaeld Ever is a two run homer
in the eighth. He's batting three thirty five. Colorado is
so good. Hold on, Steve started, Do you think he's
(01:09:49):
a household name yet? No, he isn't, right, he definitely isn't.
I'm an Al East fan, right, so I got to
watch this guy on his come up, and unless you
know who he is, he didn't watch him all the
time that you I don't think people. Hey, we're on
Fox Sports Radio. We're telling you rackfield Ever's Yeah, you
guys should know who this guy is. He's a great
(01:10:10):
player and he already won a World Series. Remember he's
been around Boston that long five plus years. Wow. Yeah,
he's a great player. Man. People should know him. In
the NL West, San Francisco beat the Dodgers to nothing.
Dodgers scored just four runs total in the three games
in the Bay Air this weekend, and in the three
games left twenty nine runners on base, but the Padres
lost at home four two to Colorado. Two runs in
(01:10:32):
the top of the eighth did it for the Rocky.
So the Padre is still a half game behind the
first place Dodgers in the NL West. San Francisco three
and a half back Braves won their eleventh in a
row five three over Pittsburgh. Arizona ends the Phillies nine
game winning streak thirteen to one. The win at Philadelphia.
The Brewers snapped in eight game losing streak with a
victory at Washington four to one. Cincinnati seven six winners
(01:10:56):
at St. Louis Cardinals for the first place team in
the NL Central, just a half game a head of Milwaukee, Cleveland,
and Tampa Bay with wins Toronto and Baltimore as well.
Houston nine for over Miami. The win to Justin Verlander.
He's eight and two, seven innings, no earned runs allowed. Today,
Houston committed three errors. Texas got a twelve inning win
at the White Sox. Each team scored three in the eleventh,
(01:11:18):
then Texas got a couple in the top of the
twelve and won eight six and more bad news for
the White Sox. First off, they're chanting fire Tony still
awakened to man, Yeah it's not. It's gonna be a
sad ending for a Hall of Fame career. But they
also had another injury today. The White Sox starting pitcher
Michael Kopeck, with an ERA of one point nine two,
left in the first inning with a sore knee. They're
(01:11:39):
supposed to get Lance Lynn off the I l tomorrow
to pitch back to you, man, so many things, Steve said,
gott be thinking of the bad the Brewers, who were
looking like they were right on par with the Mets,
the Dodgers, the Giants and you know Padres, some of
these power teams in the NL. The Brewers lost I
think eight in row. I don't know if they want today,
(01:12:00):
but the the Brewers, like you don't expect your team
to get that cold. And on the flip of that,
when the Mets are about to head out for this
West coast road trip, I talked to my Met buddies
about like, hey, listen, if the Mets even like split
on the road and go five and five, like, yeah,
that's a victory. You know, if you could go out
west and come back, you find it's not, I said, quote,
(01:12:21):
it's not like the Phillies and Braves are gonna win
like ten in a row, and and the Braves and
won eleven a row, and the Phillies one nine a
row and finally lost today. So man, they gained that
that n at least is not over by any stretch
right now. So definitely we're still so early in the season.
But we talked about those three peats with Steve the Seger.
I'm like the one thing I'm I got like a
(01:12:42):
weird memory as far as like championships and who won
and who lost and all that type of stuff when
it comes to talk about Union High School. Uh, when
I went, we won three years in a row, Union,
New Jersey, bro you forgot that one. I don't think
he that was not on the list nationally ranked USA
(01:13:05):
today State champions three years in a row. They should
have made Friday Nightlights about you and it would have
been like the Jersey Shore USA today ranked right after
those teams in Friday Night. Can't we to read about
that the next time I stayed at a hotel US
today that when it's under my door in the morning,
thank you. You should see my rings the Yankees, Tom Brady,
(01:13:29):
I thought you made your rings because you're just the
Jersey guido when you wear a lot of jewelry, the
championship rings. If I were you, I would be more
angry that the Diamondbacks prevented the Yankees from four peting.
Kidding me, that was a nightmare. The year the whole
country should have been behind the Yankees was the only time.
It was the only time in my life that I
(01:13:51):
was like, Man, if the Yankees win, it's probably a
good thing, because it was after nine eleven. And if
the Yankees would have beat the diamond Backs in Game seven,
Mr Rivera one of his only blown playoffs saves ever,
and it comes in Game seven of the World Series.
But I also thought of three peats that could have happened.
Kevin Garnett got in the way of Kobe three peting
a second time, Montana and Rice and at Forts Dynasty
(01:14:17):
would have would have got closer to three peating had
Roger Craig not fumbled in the NFC Championship Game within
a minute or so left to three pete itself is
so tough. So hey, if you're a Tampa Lightning fan,
if you're a Tampa Bay Lightning fan, good luck, good luck,
you got your one series away over twenty years, Steve said,
few and far between. I mean, it's happened, but it
(01:14:38):
hasn't happened in a minute. I'm gonna put you on
a spot, Rich, name me three, Pete, Pete, Pete Alonso,
Pete Sampras, Pete Sampras, good Pete and Pete in Camellia,
And you know, I gotta say it. What's up to
my buddy Sean who I play softball with? He's like, yo,
I turned on five seventy and there you are. So
he's listening out here like that's a good one. Pizza,
(01:15:04):
I'll see that everything. Who No, you said name three Pezze?
What Pete? Are you thinking? Oh no, I asked you.
That's not how he played. You can't think of No,
I'm playing your way. Rich always poses questions, never participant.
Name three. Malvin's that has never doing anything. No, I'm
not gonna play that game, all right, Marvin Barry game.
So listen, we got to talk about this show called
(01:15:28):
The Boys. We're not gonna talk about episode one because
that is just ridiculous and what they did on TV
honestly is a travesty. Well we'll get to that, but
I also I have a have a story. I have
a story about Game four the NBA Finals, And we'll
talk a little preview of Game five. What's gonna go
down tomorrow? We have more covene On rich next right here? Yeah,
(01:15:54):
I can't say it enough. I know you're busy with
stranger things. You can't say it enough. Let me guess
Yankees bro Matt Corpan does most dash. Oh wait, hold on,
he can't say it enough. Aaron Judge the Beast. No,
no nasty national role. What else can you got? That's
exactly what I was gonna say. When you're doing stranger
(01:16:15):
things and ben Kenobi's and whatever baseball game you're watching,
maybe after the finals tomorrow, whenever you have time, you
gotta make time to watch Hustle on Netflix. Watch it
because I'll tell you what I was like. Wow, either
I was just in a good mood or this is
one of the best movies I've seen in a long time. Yeah.
(01:16:36):
So it's a it's a modern day rocky about basketball.
A lot of big time NBA cameos in the movie,
and and they're great and kick ass montages. I mean,
what's better than kick ass montages? Right? Montage Hustle on
(01:16:56):
Netflix series Adam Sandler gotta check it out. What's up, Bobo?
You got that from Team in montage. I mean, it's
not like Rocky had one. It's not there's no wheezy
way out. It's not like that's no shot cut. It's
not Rocky level montage greatness. But it's good man. Okay, listen, Absolutely,
(01:17:22):
I'll watch it, not because you told me, because I
was gonna watch anyway, but I'll let y'all you can
think it's because you told me. Now, this is this
is You're gonna find this to be so typical me,
which is why if you're new to our show, Camino
loves making fun of me, your rich wearing flip flops
in the studio right now. It's also a hundred degrees
(01:17:42):
in southern California side, it's yeah outside, dude, you're in
a workplace. You know what I did. I hopped out
of my pool. It doesn't matter. Put on a pair
of shorts and fliplug just fos that you got a
pool invited you to a barbecue next weekend and you're dumb.
Mass read the invite, rowing responded, red, you did dandy
(01:18:03):
Jane next weekend. I hope you're there all right, so wow,
my invi removed because I'm said you already. But hold
on My point wasn't to bring up the fact he's
wearing footballs. It's like he gives us reasons to make
fun of it, just gives us ammunition. I mean, he's
got to make fun of I get that's true. You're right,
I get it. Now. I go to my daughter's pre
(01:18:27):
K graduation and someone's like, graduate from one. I'm like,
from coloring. I think I think they know their alphabets
now from finger paint. So I bring this up only
because it leads into the NBA Finals. There's some cute ceremony.
They're all dressed up in their little outfits, and the
kids sing a couple of songs and all the parents
are trying not to cry, Like could you cry? I
(01:18:48):
didn't because I thought there that they're slideshow montage was
as good as the ones I making. But I did
have a fun time seeing my little five year old
daughter up there. She starts kindergarten soon. So long story short.
We go to the pre K graduation and all the
parents and the teachers are like after party at this
pizzeria in Woodland Hills. So I was like, oh cool,
(01:19:10):
we'll go. We'll go grab a couple of slices, grab
a couple of pies and sit down with the other
kids and their parents, and the NBA Finals are on,
and it's my first opportunity to be like, let me
see what the other dads are made of, because just
the first time I'm hanging with as a as a parent,
This the first time I'm exposed, like, all right, let
(01:19:30):
me say what's the five with the dads of my
daughter's schoolmates? And I have a story. We'll get to
it next and we'll talk about NBA Game five coming up.

Before you before we get to the NBA Finals and
we'll talk some basketball and whatnot. Um, you gotta hear
that this dad life scenario. I gotta give you two
(01:20:36):
two quick things. I just went to the fridge. I
don't know why I opened that. I was just in
the kitchen, it and water, and I'm like, yeah, what's
in the fridge. You're grazing at Fox Sports Radio was
I was like, maybe something magical is in here. Yeah.
I was gonna say, that's my at home workout. I thought,
the triangle workout. I go from the couch to the pantry,
to the fridge back to the couch like thirty times
a night. Maybe something new will appear in my steps.
(01:20:59):
I look in there and there's buffalo wings and sauces,
and I think it might be from last Sunday. And
I'm wondering, like if someone is saving that, I mean
those far bombs from last week. It's like Ben Miller
or someone someone holding onto those bad boys, Thanks Dandy.
(01:21:19):
Did did you notice that there's still someone's holding onto
some Buffalo Wild Wings in the fridge? Man? I try
to stay away from that refrigerator, to be honest. I
pack bags zip block bags with ice in my lunch
over here, because there's once in a while you'll open
up that fridge in our break room and it'll knock
you back ten feet. I'll tell you what I think
we should, but I think we shouldn't mention it to anyone.
(01:21:39):
And let's see how long that Buffalo Wild Wings box
is in the Fox Sports Radio fridge, because I feel
like it's not going anywhere. I really, I feel like
it's in it's tucked away. I'm like, what the was
that from last week? I'm telling you it's tucked away.
It's gonna be there in a month. I bet you
it is here next Sunday for sure. Okay, can't wait.
Second thing, I heard one of the promos and it
(01:22:01):
was one of the hosts talking about DeShawn Watson without
getting too into it, did the Cleveland Browns just like
make a bonehead move by really just jumping the gun
on this guy? And then, now what you did to
Baker Mayfield. You know, the only guy that won you
play came in the last Yeah, but we knew that then,
(01:22:26):
we knew they made a bonehead play, like really, you're
gonna take that chance. But I think everyone stupidly thought like,
oh yeah, all the allegations were behind him, Like I
think they thought it was gonna be swept away and
it's not. Is that your feeling, Danny g Like like
the Browns just started like, hey, it's almost I saw me.
It was like Brown's hey, did you did you? Did
(01:22:46):
you do it? And I was like no, Like here's two.
I feel like it's an easy argument to make right
now that they are the worst ownership in the NFL. Yeah,
especially the way they built that contract for him to
skirt around the first year, not only suspension, with the
looming suspension, How you treated Baker Mayfield. I'm not saying
(01:23:08):
the guy's a saint that I'm not saying he's uh,
you know, the guy. They turned on him quick. I
mean that is, but think about again how bad they
were too, right, like you said, first playoff game and
how many years god, I mean, I forget exactly, but
it was to treat him that way for a guy
with like like DeShawn Watson, Let's just put it that way.
(01:23:29):
And and to think that if they're contemplating like no,
Baker not be sorry. He might be the sorest guy
in the NFL to to need all those massages. My back.
I've never been that sore man, not even on my
loneliest night. It's pretty pathetic. Where you're going to sean
(01:23:53):
not a massage, just really sore shoulder, my back, lower back.
The story is ridiculous. So yeah, to throw two pretty
million dollars at someone where there's question marks, it really
I saw people on Fox and ESPN everyone, everyone's making
great points. It really does, as Danny g said, make
a great argument that Cleveland has a terrible decision making
(01:24:13):
process in the front office. So, uh, we'll see what
happens with that. I write wrote that down food in
the fridge, and now onto Game four of the NBA Finals,
which was Friday night, this past Friday, a couple of
days ago. Now, I told you I went to my
daughter's preschool little graduation, cute ceremony, and they're like, all right, afterwards,
(01:24:35):
the parents and the teachers and everyone's gonna go to
this pizzeria and they rented out the back room for
a little party, and I'm like, god, that's cool. They
got the NBA Finals on. I was like, perfect, the
kids could play, my daughter could chit chat with their
little pals at school. And this is where all the
dads and this, well, this was the first each other.
This was my first interaction with other dads. I'd keep
(01:24:59):
keeping mind, I'm new to the dad game when it
comes to the schools in the school system and I'm like, oh,
the other then you start saying, like that guy seems
like a guy. I can hang with that guy. I
would never hang with him. Let you see another guy, No,
I would I please. I can't tell you not not
to give myself Barry Harrowitz pat on the back. Great
(01:25:20):
old school wrestling reference, but kind of a cool feeling
when the dads would be like, yo, man, I was
listening to your show, or hey man, I was watching
on TV, and I like what you said. That always
give you a little dad cloud. It's funny you should
say that because there's a couple of dads that are
like the spot rolled his eyes. I didn't get a
lot of dad cloud, so I could I could have
(01:25:41):
that one. So I'm glad you brought that up, because
that was where I was going with this. When you
are living that mom or dad life and you're sizing
up other people, like, oh, my kid becomes friends with
their kid. Can I hang with them socially? Are they
the type that would want to come over for a
drink while our kids? I like, if I have to
go on a play date, do I want to be
(01:26:02):
stuck with that dad on the playground for an hour
or so? The dads and some of them might be listening,
so no offense. But they always seemed a lot older
than me, a lot of them, and they might not
have been, but guys, guys have a second lives out here.
They get them, they get divorced and have kids again.
One that might be me. I might be that guy again, um,
(01:26:24):
but I always felt like they were. I'd be having
dinners with with these other dads and parents, and I
felt like they were like twenty years on me and
he's here. Here's my question. If you're a real estate
agent and the conversation goes to the direction of real estate,
wouldn't the real estate guy be like, well, let me
tell you, I got some pretty good insight on the market. Uh,
(01:26:47):
you know that that would happen right if you're talking
about the landscaping or something. Oh there the drought out here.
You can't water your grass more than two days a week.
If some guy owned the landscaping company, be like, you know,
my my business, he would talk about Dr brown Thumb.
So if everyone is talking on green thumb, every you'r
Dr brown thumb. If everyone's talking about the NBA finals
(01:27:10):
and baseball, is it iroe of me or appropriate of me?
Sort of plug our show and be like, oh, guys,
by the way, just for the funny, I do a
show that they're gonna parents are gonna ask you what
you do anyway, So if it comes up because you're
talking sports, it just gives you a little bit of
(01:27:32):
credibility and what you're saying. You know. Plus, I want
you to tell people just promote away one person at
a time, and that's how you know the audience. But
but I'm like, I met my daughter's pre k after
pizza party. Should I be promoting our Fox Plus radio
show to other dads? There's a time and place, and
this is the time and place you're gonna say, promote away.
(01:27:54):
I know that are I'm already making glossy flyers for
the next piece of party. Oh for the you know
what next? Next Friday is this It's Daddy and Donut Day,
so I get I go to the preschool and all
the dads. It's like they have donuts with the kids. Yeah,
I'm gonna bring some Fox Sports out, a little of
the handouts coasters. Yeah please, Um, I think this is
(01:28:16):
the appropriate time the game's on. These guys are like,
you know, pushing her chest down, like, yeah, I'm the
sports guy, and you're like, no, I'm the sports guy.
Let me tell you why I'm on Fox Sports three.
I know that there have been times where we've been
a mixed company and just mutual friends that don't necessarily
(01:28:36):
know what everyone in the room does. You know, you
went you're at You're at the house of a friend
of a friend and we're watching a fight and Cavino
can't resist being like interviewed him last week. It's like
it's like being at the barbershop. You know, no one
went to chime in. It's like it's like a game
of double Dutch. It's like, when do I jump in
on this conversation and just put some you know, put
(01:28:57):
some stank on it. You guys are talking gibberish, and
I'm about to tell him what's up. I remember particular
that there was a time where we were with people
that really didn't know what you did, and they were
talking about Tyson Fury, the heavyweight champion of the world.
And one guy goes, man, I wonder if he's a
good guy in person. And I saw Covino like shaking down,
(01:29:20):
ready to jump into the game. If you just interviewed
him like twice that week. If so, it just becomes
one of those things in our world. And I'm imagining
whatever you do for a living, if someone brings up
what you do, is it hard for you not to
sort of throw your knowledge knowledge? Again? Like Rich rules
not bragging. If it's true, that's what you do, right.
(01:29:43):
So that's why I said, I don't want to be Pad.
I don't want to be my kids pre k thing
being like And by by the way, all the dad's
hera Sunday night. Make sure you check it out Rich
Fox Sports Radio. Yeah, but let me ask you, are
you uh? Let's see are you uh? I need a
word that could say on Fox Sports Radio. Jeez, it's
a good game rhymes with noish are you? Are you
(01:30:06):
that kind of guy? Are you? Then the shoot doesn't
fit you know what I mean? So it's like, you're
not that kind of guy. So you could say whatever
you are, because I'm saying, man, I'm a nice dude.
You please check out because I do talk about this
stuff because no matter what you do for a living,
if you're a trucker and someone's talking about the press
(01:30:26):
of gas and trucking companies in this that if you
have insight in your itching to bring something up, that's
your opportunity. So I want to know, like the dad's
sort of opinion on not that I imagine what we
see on social media all the time is not too
far off from those conversations, you know what. I saw
the dad's questioning like why is Nellie at the NBA Finals?
(01:30:49):
And I'm like, oh, I know, I know, should I
jump in Nellie's pals or Jason Tatum because they're both
from St. Louis and I you know a lot of
people just when you watch a lot of guys, just
watching Steph Curry is just such a topic of your conversation,
like YO has he's gross when he's cross when he
animated last game, when he's in his own You're right,
(01:31:12):
he's the gross is so good? Gross? How good he is?
Is there? How is this possible? As they as the
kids say, is playing with a cheeko he's a video game.
He's like, it really is. It's insane. So NBA Finals
Game five, Now, is your prediction that the Golden State worries?
By the way, who are now favorite three by three
and a half. The momentum has shifted a bit. Hold on,
(01:31:34):
I don't want to get into the nerdy part of
the game. I had one more observation. A lot of times,
I'm really really impressed with how knowledgeable just the everyday
guy is. And I'm like, man, this guy's more knowledgeable
than me. And I'm the guy that does this for
a living, you know, so some people just way great
at knowing what they know of course, sports and stats
(01:31:56):
and everything else. I'm just a fan who happens to
love broadcasting. A lot of times, I am thoroughly impressed
with the knowledge of the everyday fella. Back to the game,
it was, you know, watching Curry was just it was
a special sort of moment. Yeah, and it was such
a you know, you. You witnessed a moment there in
the fourth quarter where it was tied up, and you say,
(01:32:18):
you say to yourself, man, if Golden State goes on
a little run here, now we're going into a game
five tied up, and how different that feels than a
three one lead in the NBA Finals, Like now we're
now we're talking that's the three. It's fantastic. So you
enjoyed tomorrow night game Boston at Golden State Warriors. So
(01:32:39):
we'll see what happens now. Game starts at six pm
out here on the West coast, so a little late
on the on the West, but we can't start to
be worth six out here. Safe to say that if
Curry is in any sort of zone like he was
last game, good luck. I know you're not a gambling man.
I know you know, Kenny Rogers. But Golden State by
three and a half. Do you like that? I do? Yeah,
(01:32:59):
I do. Momentum momentum, home home, And if Draymond Green
starts playing like how are you gonna beat this team?
If Curry's playing like he's playing, can't, can't. All right,
We'll enjoy your game five to our night and enjoy
hanging with us. We love hanging with you guys. Coming
on Rich on Fox Sports Radio. We have more next
and anything you want at coven On Rich right here,
(01:33:24):
Fox Sports Radio, Cadino and Rich, Fox Sports Sunday. I'm
playing this for Daniel Suarez right now. I'm playing this
for Edwin Diaz who was just lights out. No, Sean
Merriman lights out, breaking, Benjamin lights out? How good is
this song? Is this the best closer entrance in Major
League Baseball? I mean after Mo Rivere's for sure. I'm
(01:33:46):
not living in the nineties. Bro No right now. Yes,
he just struck out the side like that. Mets win
two out of three, first forty game winner in the NL.
Oh yeah, well, the Yankees beat the Cubs thirty five
to four. It seemed like that, right. I hate to
talk Yankees meth, but we're excited. Man. Those are our
(01:34:06):
teams and they're both kicking ass. So I hope all
your teams won this weekend. I hope you enjoyed your NASCAR.
Daniel Suarez did first Loco ever forever who won, And
of course tomorrow Boston at the Golden State Warriors and
Wednesday Colorado at Tampa Bay. Tampa Bay looking for the
(01:34:26):
three peat. We talked about that earlier with Steve de Seger.
Few and far between ever think about how lucky the
Boston fan is as far as how championships over the
last twenty plus years have come for them. It's fine.
Boston has that swag about they do they. I don't
think that doesn't give you a sense of confidence. Sometimes
I feel like it defines a city a little bit. Yes,
(01:34:50):
certainly helped Portnoise hustle for Barstool when the team in
the city he roots for was winning that much. I
think about it. Celtics, Red Sox, Patriots. I mean they
they are by far the most successful city over the
last one twenty plush years. Easily, Well, you're easily. Your
(01:35:15):
weekend has been packed with sports and nonsense. You know
you had a great card on UFC. I heard UFC
two seventy was great. I saw the highlights, but I
didn't get to watch. I was packed with boxing, believe
it or not, rich So last night I was watching boxing. Right.
Props to him, Mugia. I've been telling you about this
dude for a long time. He's underrated, needs a challenge,
He needs to step it up, fight a recognizable name,
(01:35:35):
but he's the guy. So he won convincingly over Jimmy Kelly.
That would be insinuating. He's a recognizable name. Jimmy Kelly,
tough brit knocked him out. He was winning that Jimmy
Kelly dude the whole time, but caught him. Knocked them
down three times, and the I think it was the
fifth round they stopped to fight. Gia wins. He's the
(01:35:56):
guy still, right. So then later that night, one of
my buddies hitting up y'all, don't forget the Langa fights,
and I'm like, oh, yeah, sh right, I forgot about that.
Edgar Bolanga is this tough Puerto Rican fighter who's fighting
the day before the Puerto Rican Day parade. So all
(01:36:18):
the preakins around parade was today. Miguel Codo's there, he's
being honored Boxing Hall of Famer Mayweather too. You see
me Weather crying. Anyway, long story short, something happened during
this Burlana fight. Now he's recognizable because he knocks sixteen
dudes out in a row. He had a nasty streak
(01:36:38):
going on. So there's a lot of buzz about this
Edgar Bolanga guy. He fought a veteran. He wasn't the
got the Rangers game hitting the lightning fan was he? No? No, no?
So anyway, long story show you don't. Here's what you
need to know. Young Puerto Rican fighter with a lot
of pressure on because he's fighting in front of all
of his people before the Puerto Rican Day parade, in
front of his hero Miguel Koto. He's there with a
(01:37:00):
primetime fight last night over a veteran, a slow motion,
slow moving veteran name and Gulo right and Goolo whooped
his ass. So this is like a bad night for
boxing because what happens. Blana gets the decision and like,
I don't know how he could have possibly won this fight,
but again, you know, people see things there for and
(01:37:22):
I get a perspective wise for me, and Goolo beat him.
So it's just a bad look for boxing. It looked like, oh,
they just want to protect this dude and keep it
the young guys buzz Puerto Rican guy. And that's how Yeah,
that's how the fan perceives it. And the fans left
with a with a bad taste in their mouth. But
something happened during the broadcast, and I want to know
your thoughts on it, and by no means you know
(01:37:45):
we're here, we're having fun. We've worked with a lot
of these people, so I'm not trying to band mouth
of anybody. Okay, So it could be like just different
perspectives during the fight and Goolo, who's the older, slower
guy right now? You should be a lot strong in
between in between the rounds, he goes to a neutral corner,
(01:38:05):
he goes to the wrong corner, ding ding end of
the round, he goes to the order and he's just
standing another where's where's my guys? Right? So they come
back and look what happened? Get this guy at GPS.
He doesn't even know where he is right, but they're
laughing about it. Guess what next round he does it again,
He goes to goes to the wrong court, he goes
(01:38:27):
to the wrong corner twice. He's spin around like, where
are my guys? Where my cornermen? You like, would you
believe it happened again? Look? Did you look at us?
Somebody tell this guy where's corners at? So it's a
funny moment, right, they're just laughing about it. Former champion
in Legend and Superstar announcer and just all around great guy.
Timothy Bradley who did not bea ever in my opinion.
(01:38:51):
I mean he battled though, he had some battles, battles,
those pacon battles. Get this, here's what he says. He
says something and I'm improvising. You think that's bad? And
Ghulo walk into the wrong corner two times, it's nothing.
He goes, there was a dude last week that was
fighting a ghost. He was fighting, he was punching mid air,
(01:39:11):
fighting a ghost. And that's the guy that holds the
guy that fell into the coma and passed away. They're
talking about booth A, Lezzie, the African fighter who died.
It was a strange clip that went viral. Right, But
even the non boxing fan, the casual fan saw that clip. Right.
(01:39:32):
So now the whole world, you know, looks to Twitter
because you know, you're like, oh, man, did he just
say what we thought? But here's the nugget, Rich, here's
the nugget. Before the fight, they paid, they honored this
guy they got they passed away. Yes, they did a
(01:39:53):
you know count to ten. You know, earlier this week
we lost Semis. But Lezzie Darrell story. We're gonna give
a you know, tent counting his honor, and you know
they honored dissume. During this, Timothy Bradley is probably on
the earpiece with the producer Twitter. He can just getting it.
You're getting a broadcast zone, you guys any different types
(01:40:17):
of things. I don't want to pounce on him, but
I think it's a different perspective of we're just living
a different world of social media. How did how did
they miss it? How did they miss and then everyone
else you go to social media, everyone's like everyone waiting
to catch it out. So then Timothy Bradley does what
he's supposed to do, and he did a great job
(01:40:39):
of it, so it's not a knock on him. He's like,
I just want to apologize. I didn't realize that that
guy had passed away. It's like, you mean the guy
they honored before the fight, and he's like, I, you know,
I send my respects to his family and friends. It
should end there. If anyone, if anyone's calling for Timothy
Bradley's job, what I'm saying is I'm just saying, you know,
(01:40:59):
is it are the backlash or did you say? Hey man,
sometimes you don't catch everything but in the world of
social media, and he's a boxing guy, it is perplexing us.
How the hell did he miss that? I know, but
isn't there a part of you that thinks, like everyone's
very quick to want to cringe. As as a guy
who I know people make mistakes, and as a as
a guy who broadcasts, you know you're gonna slip, you're
(01:41:21):
gonna mess up. Not not to get controversial on it,
but Jack del Rio, Danny g you know that story
from earlier this week, right, he said some controversial political
stuff about the storming of the Capitol Building, comparing it
to George Floyd or something right Alliance and and like, listen,
it was his perspective in his opinion, whether you like
it or not. But he had to pay a fine,
(01:41:42):
and now everyone's calling for his job, and they're like,
I don't think anyone's calling for anybody. But deleted his account. Yeah,
he deleted his whole Twitter, something the Raiders advised him
to do like eight years ago. I'm just saying, watching him,
listening to him say this, I think the whole world
who had seen that clip over and over throughout the week,
it's like, no, he didn't just do that. He Oh,
(01:42:04):
these things are very different. I don't want I don't
want to think I think they're the same. Timothy Bradley
just saying something and being like, oh, no, how does
he not know? That's different than Jack del Rio put
it out there. But this so many times where someone
just says something or tweets something, you're like, oh, if anything,
I'll just leave it at this. I like Timothy Bradley.
We've interviewed him. I think he was a great champion,
and I think he's a great guy, and he's a
(01:42:24):
great ambassador of the game. But it's a great, you know,
color guy, and not even a color guy, he's a
he calls a great fight. Yeah, So, if anything, I
would say the backlash. It's stunk to hear him say
this because you're like, wait a second, he doesn't know.
But I don't think. I think we gotta get off
him a little bit. You know. He apologized, and sometimes
(01:42:44):
that's kind of the question too. When is the apology
just really accepted people? And I think if you feel
the person genuinely is sorry, then then I think we
should just stop and move on immediately. Think about how
you how do you act with your significant other or friends.
If your wife or girlfriend says something that that you
upset her, you genuinely are sorry. Shouldn't we shouldn't move
on quick and everybody slips up right, So everybody one's perfect, bro,
(01:43:07):
No one's perfect. It was to show you too, the
different worlds that people could live. Because how in the world,
I'm thinking I saw that clip at least twenty times
last week. How did he not see it? You know,
his algorithm you would think was a lot of boxing stuff. Yeah,
I mean everyone's algorithm is different. I mean my like,
my algorithm is like but cheeks bouncing on TikTok. Your
(01:43:29):
your algorithm is fighting anything. Then you know, I'm just
gonna say he apologized and which should be the end
of it. But it was all around just a sloppy night.
You get tied into, get tied into your old boy
Jim Cotton when he apologized and nasty Nestor Cortez said, yea,
all listen, man, the old guy said, Nestra the molester.
(01:43:51):
He didn't mean any harm. It was he just misspoke.
He's old, you know, hey, it was just cringing. It
was cringeing. I'm gonna uplift Jim. And you know, maybe
that's why I get so tight when I see your
witnessed these things, because I'm like, they're gonna get all
this backlash now, you know what I mean? You go
to social media and you're like, oh no. Anytimes, I know,
(01:44:16):
I start getting nervous for why a lot of people
live that life now where when something weird happens, when
something weird happens during the live events, particularly sports, your
first instinct, sadly, it is to be like, oh or
other people noticing this? Twitter? Twitter? Twitter, Yes, yeah, so
that happened. And if anything you hate, I'm just letting
you know that it did happen. You probably you may
have seen it, you may have read about it, but
(01:44:38):
you apologize not. Let's take one quick phone call then
we'll get an update from Steve to Sager Rob in Arizona.
What's up? Rob a Conoich? Thank my call everybody, buddy boy. Hey,
if you think about it, you guys, earlier we were
talking about the situation when you got all the kids
together and all the parents. How about this, you could
(01:45:00):
do the opposite, take the Barry Sanders approach and act
like you've been there. You don't say nothing about sports.
You just listen, because, like they say, a good salesman, listen.
And then this way, it's not like you're bragged doocious.
(01:45:21):
Oh yeah, I'm on Fox where you YadA YadA, you
know you know what the comments you've got, you know,
you know what I mean. So if you're calm and
you just listen, then right around when they find out
who you are. Remember how's the saying goes the the
(01:45:43):
least they see you is the more they'll pay to
see you. Remember how they used to say that about
like the NFL old stars. Oh yeah, that's like old school.
That's like old school Hollywood. We're saying, been there, Barry Sanders,
you know. And then you listen to all the parents
and they a play in about the eight dollar gifts
in YadA YadA YadA, gets fine and Cosino and reach
(01:46:08):
people are listening. Yeah, thank you, buddy, thank you, Robert.
It's a it's a I'm good he brought that up,
you know, Rich if he just joined us, was talking
about how yeah, I didn't know if he should throw
it out there to these sports. Yeah, I guess I
was gonna say. For the first time I hung out
with a bunch of other dads at my kids school,
and they were all talking sports and and it was
I was so curious when and if I should throw
(01:46:29):
in the um. Hey, by the way, I'm on Fox Sports.
You to checker out my show, Like or is that lame? Yeah?
I mean I like what he said. It's a great point.
But I mean, all right, let's want to get an
update from the man, Steve Seger. What's up, Steve? Hello,
we have Yankees and Mets notes all over the baseball
(01:46:52):
Why is that? Well? Forty wins for the Mets now
and forty four wins for the Yankees. That's why. By
the way, the last night's game, the Mets game aim
in Anaheim, you had a player hit for the cycle,
as you mentioned earlier in the show. Another player hit
multiple home runs in the game, Mike Trout. Another guy
hit his first career home run. According to stats Inc.
That's literally the first time in the history of Major
(01:47:13):
League Baseball that those three things have all happened in
the same game. You know, Steve, I'm gonna bring up
that because I just texted my dumb group text of
like met fan friends, and I'm like, hey, guys, is
it weird that at such a fun time when we
saw so many cool things that it's mid June. Who
cares that the Mets lost and no Mets win over anything?
And I'm like, no, you guys are lame. I mean,
that was a great game to be any nothing. I'm
(01:47:34):
thinking about it. It was a little history and they
didn't getting no hit. And then you had Edwin Diaz
getting to say for the Mets in Anaheim tonight for
one over the Angels. He had five strikeouts in relief
for his inning, and two thirds. The strikeout that ended
the eighth inning was clocked at near a hundred two
miles per hour. Pete Alonso with the late home runs,
he has eighteen homers to lead the National League, fifty
(01:47:55):
seven rb i s to lead the list. Steve, I
hate to interrupt this to brag about the Yankees. I
know you're about the Mets, But did you see that
gen Carlos Stanton rocket missile home run yesterday? Did you
see it was a hundred nineteen miles per hour off
his bat? You know what, Steve, he just did whatever
Yankee fan does. Like, I'm, you know, loving the fact
(01:48:17):
that Alonzo's got the most home runs in the NL
the Mets got forty wins, and he's like, yeah, but
you know what the Yankees has hous he has closed
down a fastball or whatever, right, And it just got
me thinking, like yo, Gean, Carlos Stanton, He's but you
even do it subconsciously. I talked about Edward Diaz being
lights out and he has great closer music, and you
(01:48:39):
bring up Marianna Rivera. I mean, but you can't resist.
I mean about miles per hour. Though. That gets me
to my second point, because we've had stack cast for
I don't know ten fifteen years. At the Yankee Stadium
game today, the blowout of the Cubs, the first baseman
comes into pitch Frank's windel and allows a home run.
It was a thirty five pitch saw that to Higgy. Yeah,
(01:49:01):
that is the needless to say, the slowest pitch ever
tracked by stat cast that gets hit for a home run. Actually,
they're showing it right now. Kashioka hit two home runs,
one of them off the slowest pitch ever, one of
them off a real pitcher. One of them that was
thirty five miles per hour. Yeah, he had a muscle
that second one out there yeah, all himself. You know
what makes me whther it's the sacred because you know,
(01:49:22):
I'm like the guy that plays, you know, softball. I
wonder how these like superstar athletes would play off of
like unlimited high arc pitching. Would it be an adjustment
for a guy that you're seeing I bet you would
be an adjustment for guys that are used to see
an hundred mile fastball. Define absolutely it would. And for
by the way, I've seen football players try and hit
(01:49:43):
softball pitches with the arc and they tried muscle up
and they can't touch it. I know, So you know
it's a skill. Absolutely. Yankees eighteen to four over the Cubs,
Matt Carpenter two homer's, seven r v i Is Colorado
got two runs in the top of the eight to
win at San Diego four two, but the Dodgers lost
again at San Francisco to nothing the final on two
(01:50:03):
homers in the first inning off loser Julio Arias, who
did have ten strikeouts today in his six innings, no walks,
but he's three and six for the Dodgers despite an
RA of two point eight oh. The Dodgers record the
last two weeks four and nine, but with the Padres losing,
the Dodgers are still in first place by half game
over San Diego by three and a half ahead of
San Francisco. Braves won their eleventh game in a row.
(01:50:25):
NBA Finals Game five tomorrow night at Golden State Hockey
Stanley Cup Finals starts Wednesday, Colorado host Tampa Bay. Daniel
Suarez won the NASCAR Race at on the road Course
for the second man. He's the first Mexican born driver
to win in the Cup Series and this was his
hundred nine fifth career start. The Cup Series is off
(01:50:47):
next week. And and Roy McElroy took the Canadian Open
on the p g A Tour, where the final round
sixty two. Andy Murray lost the final of this week's
Wimbledon tune up in Germany. Wimbledon starts in just over
two weeks. Back to you, you know, I'm looking at
all these teams, thanks, but he always gonna hang with
Steve the secre um. I'm looking at some of the
best teams around Major League Baseball, and you know, it's
(01:51:08):
it's so obvious that even the best teams, like I
said earlier, it's the one sport where the best team
still loses roughly sixty games or more. Everyone gets called
the Dodgers four and nine and they had less thirteen.
I said before the Brewers, what are the Brewers? They
just won today, but they had lost eight in a row.
So the Brewers lost eight in a row. Mets are
(01:51:30):
playing five ball right now. Then teams get hot like
Atlanta eleven in a row. I have And again I
hate to say this because of the arrogance. I've seen
your eyes. I can't see the Yankees getting cold. I can't.
I mean unless the Yankees, what what would it be like?
I know you were saying earlier year, they can't afford
to get cold, because that a l least is still competitive. Yeah,
(01:51:53):
there's a lot of great teams, but you know, I'm
thinking about there's good teams in your division that are
ten games over five hundred, that are still almost ten
games behind you. So I'm saying the Yankees. When you
look at the Yankees schedule coming up, this will be
a test because you just play the lowly Cubs here.
Let me tell you what the Yank scot here. This
is a good test if you're a baseball fan, especially
the A at least over the next week or so,
(01:52:17):
the Rays, the Blue Jays, and the Astros. So you're
playing three significantly over five, so the Yankees will be tested. Hey,
I know Bobo had a question for us to Bobo
is here, Danny g Spotty Boy. It's the Cavino and
Rich Show on Fox Sports Radio. It's up, Bobo. Just
I'll make it quick. I'll say this. So you had
(01:52:38):
a like a question of do you brag to your
daughter's classmates parents? Funny, I was still thinking about that too, Bobo,
you know, because that last caller made a good point.
But you know, living in l a honest to god,
I gotta tell you, man, I don't think it's a
sizing up question as much as I just want to
(01:52:59):
know who do you know? Who are who are these
people that are kids? Friends? You know? So they're gonna
ask what you're a difference between you just saying hey,
by the way, I work for Fox Sports Radio. Are
they going, hey, Rich, what do you do for a living?
I'm a radio I wait, I wait every time for
that time. I'm not the one to be like, hey,
(01:53:20):
I'm on the radio on TV. Check me out. My question.
This goes to my question you're having a sports debate
and the person says that they don't you don't know
what you're talking about. Do you throw it out there
of what you do for a living at that point
when you have to. That would be like telling a
plumber like you don't know what you're doing about these pipes,
and he's like, I'm a plumber. Like but then again,
I mean sports broadcast is our opinions and no better
(01:53:41):
than anyone else's. But but well we know a little more.
I mean I could say for a living, I talk
about this stuff. But yeah, I think it's lame to
throw it out there unprovoked. But right, not not in
l a anywhere. If you're talking to other parents, there
is a sense of like, you know, what do you do?
Like my kid hangs out with your kid, like you
my kid maybe at your house and like, yeah, who
(01:54:02):
are you? What are you? Donna? Yeah, they're gonna ask you.
It's basic small talk. I met. Parents are the first
top of this thing, and I already know like oh,
little Molly's mom is a is a nurse and the
dad works in sales and they moved here from Pennsylvania.
Like that's the conversation. What else are you gonna talk
about a lot of It's like, hey, what do you do?
Thank you? That's a great question, Bobo, make your pick
(01:54:24):
right now, let's do and then we'll then we'll break
Yankees play. Let's say, hold on, give me two seconds,
one to three, three against the Blue Jays. They play
three against the Rays and four against the Astros. So
you're looking at the next ten games against three really
good teams. What are you gonna get? Answer when you
come back? Cool more com rich next? Oh? I like
(01:54:52):
when they remixed j C with that divorced Dad Rock
band Lincoln Park. Yes, of course, I love Angry Dad Rock.
Collision course was legendary. Hey, I'm Cavino. What's up? Cavino?
That is Rich. We are Covino and Rich, CNR and
FS are Fox Sports Radio. It's me Rich. I'm reading
(01:55:13):
our feedback on Twitter. I gotta say, what's up to? Geff?
G Off, Jeff and l A hit us up with
a lot of good responses today. He said his name
is Geoff Jeff. Yeah, I would assume, I would assume Jeff,
but I always read it as Geoff Geoff Jeff from
La Geoff Jeff Geoff Jeff was saying, Steve de Seger,
we were chatting about the three piece. He goes, I'm
pretty sure today is the anniversary, the twenty year anniversary
(01:55:35):
of when Kobe and Chack completed their three You know,
it's just the actual day today. I think today's the
actual day. I'm gonna double check that is it. Oh,
he's at it. Yeah, Oh wow, that's cool. I got
that name three pets, name three peets. That's not how
it works. That was my question. Three Pete, can you
(01:55:57):
name three piece? And I did? I said, Alonso, Pete,
Sampres Pete, and Cavilla. You name three peeces. I'm not
playing your dumb game. Dumb question is only cool when
I asked, when I asked earlier, could they be Peters
or you have to have to be Pezze. I don't know.
You want to be like Pete? He want to be
like Pete Pan. He's Peter Pan. Yeah, you think it's friend.
(01:56:17):
Hey there, you have to grow up eventually. Pete. Is
he like Debbie Gibson where he's like He's like, I'm
not Peter Pan. I'm not. Can't you can't stay in
neverland forever. You stayed in sports with with your three, Pete,
so you did a great job with that. Um, I
thought you'd go Pete Webber though. Now let's talk about
Tony's real quick. Tony's Tony's how do you feel about
(01:56:41):
isn't there something you? And I were the first to
say that the White Sox, we're crazy to go with
some old guy in their clubhouse, right, A bunch of
young dudes young and not only young dudes, like young
like Latino dudes and write. My thought originally was Tony
Larus is a legend and he is a Hall of
(01:57:04):
Famer and he's won championships. And not to take anything away,
not at all, but I remember thinking when they hired him,
I'm like this the Cups to the Cups team, the
White Sox team that he's managing is very young and
he's seventy seven. You got for for still being in
and I'm just saying that. I was just saying, like,
(01:57:25):
doesn't it make culturally? Everything made me think, I know
it's baseball, but I just felt like, this guy can't
he he can't he he can't possibly connect with these
guys the way they probably want him to. You know,
now they're starting firing. Now, let's get rid of him
as coach of the Chicago White Sox. But now they're
chanting it. And it's so sad to me because although
(01:57:48):
I understand he needs to go. And we saw, you know,
a few managers fired mid season. This didn't fired Joe Girardi.
And then they go on tears, right, and it shakes
the team up sometimes. But to see Tony LaRusso and
and maybe it is time. It was time before he
got hired against seventy seven years old legend. Just the
fact that he's old, right, because you think, like, oh,
(01:58:08):
my dad or my grandpa. Imagine like the whole stadium
of people booing this old guy to fire Tony LaRussa.
I could say a statement that will not offend anybody
because it it goes for both people. Like look at politics.
Our last two presidents were in their seventies, not people
(01:58:31):
running things that are important. No matter what you believe in,
I seventy year old running a country or running a
team or anything should be retiring and chilling. My dad
turned seventy. My dad is chilling on the beach in
Mexico and retiring, enjoying retirement. Goes back to our first
conversation about Robbie knots his legacy to tarnishing. See you
guys next week. Have a great week at Cobing on Rich.
(01:58:52):
Until then are week guys.
