Speaker 1 (00:22):
I thought it was gonna be a blowout yesterday, and
the Indiana Pacers hung in there. And I don't want to,
you know, join the narrative of every other TV or
radio show where it's did the Pacers blow it? Or
did Boston just show up at the end. I think
the narrative really is when the lesser team blows an opportunity, Yeah,

(00:44):
they had an opportunity, you might as well just say
series over. And I know that's so drastic after one game,
but when you see a team like Indiana play their
ass off and somehow let that slip through their fingertips
losing overtime, yeah, you just got to say to yourself,
much like the Lakers, be honest, not to rub it in,
but when the Lakers are playing the Nuggets in the
first round and the first two games, like, oh, the

(01:08):
Lakers could have had either one of those. You're thinking, what,
they're not gonna win the series because when the underdog
has a chance and there's a little pocket, that little
window of opportunity, you have to pounce. They may have
still lost the series, but now in my mind, it's
over over. Like I mean, I hate to agree with you,
it seems that way. What are your thoughts, Danny G

(01:30):
I think that's too drastic. I mean, I knew the
Pacers were going to be close in that game. You
guys got to think back to the last two series.
What happened in both game twos to the Celtics. They
had a clunker and they're kind of known for that,
So yeah, you can't's too early to say the Pacers
are done and done til on their audit. But you
know what, lit look at the flip of it. Indiana
blew last night, but look at Game three. The Knicks

(01:53):
were up what two to zero in that series, and
they could have went up three to zero.

Speaker 2 (01:58):
It feels that way, and they should have had it.
They let on. Like we established last week, there's no
such thing as momentum in the NBA. Every game is
a clean slate. So you know, maybe they could pull
Game two out. We'll see. They definitely showed up more
than you gave him credit for. Rich Oh yeah, no doubt.
I just I feel like in anything in life, it
could be a fight. If the underdog has a flurry

(02:22):
of punches and you're like, oh my god, he may
shock the world. If that heavyweight or the champion or
the favorite gets out of that round, it's like, ah,
you know, immacululeven back in yep, dB, what's up, buddy, guys.

Speaker 3 (02:35):
The other side of the coin is and I'm sure
this is what Indiana and Rick Carlisle are talking about today,
is Hey, we showed we can we can win here,
we can we showed we can be these guys. And
I think that helped Minnesota in their Game seven against
the Nuggets and being like, well, we won the first
two games, which I was on the side of what
you guys are talking about right now. I don't think
Minnesota had a chance in Game seven because who's going

(02:58):
to take three out of four in Denver in the
one of the toughest places to play in the NBA.

Speaker 2 (03:02):
And they went and did it. And I think that their.

Speaker 3 (03:04):
Confidence probably from those first two games and then what
they carried over from Game six helped them in Game seven.
So I think that the Pacers are probably telling themselves
that today, like we're the ones that messed it up.
We couldn't inbound it. If if we take care of ourselves,
we're gonna be okay.

Speaker 1 (03:19):
That's most definitely the positive space, Yes, for sure. I
just know that when a team is on the brink
of victory, you're stealing one and they let it slip.
Very rarely does that team say we'll come back and
get him. It's usually just a sad sign that you
had a chance to really shift the vibe of the
series and you didn't. I mean, I mean, it sounds ridiculous,

(03:40):
but I'll use a dumb example because I'm a Mets fan.
In the twenty fifteen World Series, which no one remembers
but me and Kansas City Royals fans. Yes, because you
know Royals fans, that's their moment of glory.

Speaker 4 (03:52):
Yep.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
But if you remember the Mets are winning in the
ninth inning and Jerry's familiar, I remember that guy he
quick pitched in the ninth inning and the Royals hit
a home run because and this guy never quick pitch,
So you're like, what is he doing? And you're like,
all right, well we'll get him in game two. Now
you had game one, you would have been up one

(04:13):
to oh. Baseball, basketball, hockey, those seven game series. I
always liked doing the math, Like Dan Bayer said, if
you're up two to oh, then you gotta say, like,
so the other team's going to four to the next five,
that's ridiculous.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
No, there is a good feeling though, knowing you can compete,
knowing you belong. Not to say that the Pacers didn't
feel that way before, but they were such underdogs and
they almost pulled it out. So I guess there's two
ways to look at it. A little bit of disappointment
because they had that chance, but a little bit of
confidence moving into the next game.

Speaker 5 (04:43):
You gotta hate when a turnover like that is the
difference from victory and defeat. And on yesterday's show, we
talked about the pace that the Pacers play at when
I gave that bad pun. Yeah, but that's the first
thing Jalen Brown said when they interviewed on post game.
He said that the speed the Pacers play at keeps
you on your toes and you basically get worn out.
By the end of the game, and the Pacers were

(05:05):
able to come back, and I think what they were
down by, like thirteen, it was a nice fun comeback
to watch, and that speed they played at was not
just fun to watch. But you, guys, I text you,
I said, man, the tempo of both teams right now,
when both teams are going back and forth like that
and they can sustain that pace for a couple of quarters,
it's really fun basketball.

Speaker 2 (05:25):
Yeah, that keeps it exciting for sure, but keep your
eyes on that in the next game. That could definitely
wear a team out for sure if they're not used
to it. And again, I hate to say it, styles
make fights, styles make games, So yeah, that might be
the difference maker for the Pacers in game two. Well tonight,
the Wolves hosting I'm sorry, as Mancy as Manzi Blagos

(05:48):
would say, the timber Wolves. The Wolves host the Mavericks
and Vegas will like to tell you that the t
Wolves are four and a half point favorite. So people
thinking MAVs while they're coming.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
Off of you know, pretty sweet series home team advantage.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
No, yeah, I'm rooting for the Timberwolves for sure. I'm
rooting for an exciting game to be honest. And by
the way, I just got an update. I just let
the termite person in, so it's all good. Ye have turmits.
I don't, but the building mighte So yeah, just a
termite person, not a murderer or anything.

Speaker 4 (06:20):
You know.

Speaker 2 (06:20):
I'll tell you what.

Speaker 1 (06:20):
As a kid, I thought turmites and quicksand would play
a larger part of my life, like every cartoon.

Speaker 2 (06:26):
Fools, Gold fools, gold.

Speaker 1 (06:27):
Termites and quicksand I was like, maybe these are things.
And dynamite and dynamite and falling anvils. These are things
I thought as a kid out quicksand now, but you know,
when I grow older, I'm gonna have to watch out
for quicksand and murderers a right.

Speaker 3 (06:41):
I also thought any vehicle with a siren on top
of it could stop you for any wrong doings. It
could be the public works department working on a pipe.

Speaker 2 (06:50):
So funny.

Speaker 3 (06:51):
Yeah, and I am like going five miles per hour
because they'll probably call it in or pull me over.

Speaker 2 (06:58):
You still get scared when you see privates curity? Yes,
absolutely absolutely, but are they the termites?

Speaker 1 (07:05):
And like a bugs Bunny cartoon where they like immediately
make a baseball bat out of your h like a
big piece of wood. If so, I hope it's one
I could use.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
Slugger. Yeah, that's the update, and very excited for basketball.
In fact, we'll be talking more basketball in midweek Major.
But like I said, worldwide leaders of nonsense. There's a
story about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelsey.

Speaker 1 (07:28):
You no longer have to put a dollar in the
jar until the football season, right, Danny.

Speaker 2 (07:33):
For a dollar? It's the off season. Thank the off
season every week or so? No, thank you. By the way,
you know you.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
Can't play that until the football season. You know the
other board up im Oh that's his drop. He played
that every chance he had. It is a great drop.
Probably I stole it from him probably thirty times a day.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
I gotta play that.

Speaker 1 (07:56):
It's just from his favorite movie based in Detroit, RoboCop.
Is that why Detroit sports and it takes place Rebelkop
takes place in Detroit.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
What's the actual length on the drop?

Speaker 3 (08:04):
It's gotta be like two point two seconds? Yeah, see yeah,
because you could tell like one, that's eight tens of
a second.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
You're good. Oh shot, she stopped. That's like an inside
joke because every time we worked with him. It was like, geez,
can he play that anymore?

Speaker 5 (08:18):
So I played that drop for a total of sixteen
minutes and thirty se I do like it, though Taylor Swift,
we used to have to put a dollar in the
jar when we mentioned her name.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
But this is a story and you think it, oh Rich,
you're talking about Taylor Swift. No, it's the jump off
to a better question.

Speaker 2 (08:35):
I am surprised that Taylor Swift didn't make Apple Music's
Top ten Albums of All Time today that came out today.
Lauren Hill was number one. I could see her being
in a top ten, but over thriller Get out Here.
You can't be over Michael Jackson's thriller No way, no
how uh uh not having it. But yeah, I was

(08:58):
surprised Taylor Swift didn't make the top ten just based
on how popular she is in the moment. But she's
in the.

Speaker 1 (09:04):
News because her eras tour era is overseas and what
don't you know, we saw like what Bradley Cooper and
Gigi Hotdee and all these like good look at rich
people hanging out of her show and Travis Kelsey's there
and guess what Taylor Swift shows.

Speaker 2 (09:20):
Up with a hickey right on her neck.

Speaker 1 (09:25):
Barf and fans pants are like, yeah, you go, Queen,
get yours. She's such a normal girl. I'm proud of
her hickey.

Speaker 2 (09:35):
People.

Speaker 1 (09:35):
People are torn about this, so I got praising this.
So I gotta ask you, when you see a hickey,
as Tony Danza said in Uh Who's the Boss back
in the day, Samantha, that's a hickey, Samanda, that's a hickey.
When you see someone.

Speaker 2 (09:53):
With a hickey, that's the one. If you got no
one remembers this reference, just you and I because we're bosos.
Tony Danza walks in and he's like, Samantha, what are
you doing. They're like, oh, we're just doing a new
dance and they got their neck tilted to the side.
And then he's like, Samantha, that's a hickey. And she
gets in trouble because she has a hickey or she

(10:13):
was trying to hide it from dad.

Speaker 1 (10:16):
Is that the same Is that the same episode when
he bought her the really big car? Or is that
a different episode from when he walked in on Angela
in the shower. No, it's the episode he was like hey, oh, oh, hey, oh,
that was it the episode where Mona was horny.

Speaker 2 (10:29):
Oh no, that's every episode.

Speaker 1 (10:30):
No, No, I was the one here was like Angela Mona
Jane didn't that one that episode?

Speaker 2 (10:35):
Hey, Tony so a Hickey. You know why Samantha Misseli
didn't want her dad to see cause it's trashy.

Speaker 1 (10:42):
That's why Taylor Swift or not Travis Kelcey, if he's
leaving hickeys, are you thinking one of two things? A, Yeah,
that's sort of trashy and grow up? Or are you thinking, yo,
Travis and Taylor are getting it on and they're having
some wild times, but maybe you're not.

Speaker 2 (10:59):
I mean, can't we say both. I lean more trashy
as an adult, I can see if you're a horned
up team, you know, busting out the horn section. I understand.
You know, things get hot and heavy. Remember that your experimenting.
You remember those junior high days, those those grinding days

(11:21):
you'd have.

Speaker 1 (11:21):
Well, the days where you were making out for minutes
at a time, looking back and like what was I doing?

Speaker 2 (11:26):
You'd have your mouth is just your mouth is just
opening zipper birds from all the grinding. Yeah, for sure,
I remember those days, and that's fine. That's part of
growing up, right, But they're grown up, so they're they're
thirty year old. Yeah, have to say in your thirties
you walking around as a professional with hickeys. It does

(11:48):
show passion. I can't deny that, But is it a
good look now? And then it was terribly huge? I
think trashy with ski tango behavior. By the way, I'm
not saying they're trashy. You know, they're in love, they're
great whatever. It's case by case.

Speaker 1 (12:07):
But this particular hickey from kinikis, I don't think you're trashy.

Speaker 2 (12:13):
But if you.

Speaker 1 (12:15):
Know, if you showed up with a big hickey, I'd say,
could be no trashy behavior exactly.

Speaker 2 (12:18):
It's his trashy behavior. So sure, so it's not a
good look. So so I lean more not a good
look as opposed to good for them.

Speaker 1 (12:24):
Well, I look at it this way. I'm gonna give
you a little flip side. As we all get older, right,
where was the hickey on her? I think that matters? Neck, Okay, boring.
As we all get older, you got jobs, people, got
side hustles, kids, travel sports for your kids dropping them

(12:47):
off a dance camp in this and gymnastic.

Speaker 2 (12:50):
And travel sports is tearing families apart.

Speaker 1 (12:52):
Dude with all the responsibilities, kid drop off, pickup line,
going to work, traffic by the time so many couples
finally get the kids to sleep, pour themselves a drink,
Poppin edible, do whatever they do, they're exhausted. If I
see grown ups with a hickey, I'm sort of impressed.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
I'm impressed. It's spin, another good spin.

Speaker 1 (13:17):
I'm impressed because I know that I try my damnedest
to keep the fire alive behind the energy. That's my point.
Unless they just got back from OCAPO weekend. Man, he's
visiting her on a tour, he's probably all he's probably
got the horn section all going ia Sam because he's
watching one hundred thousand people in foreign countries praising his girlfriend.

(13:43):
And he's leaving his mark. He's marking the territory, marking
the territory. And that's a very high school movie. I
know we're not talking high school kids, so trashy or
hot or both.

Speaker 2 (13:55):
When you see a grown up with a hickey, I'll
give I'll give you some Ammo rich since you're on
their side a little bit. They don't live conventional lives
by any means. No kids either no kids, right one,
dude's a professional. They're basically billionaires and millionaires, billionaire millionaires
doing a kid thinks he's playing football and she's playing

(14:17):
a dress up pop star. So to their advantage, they
don't have to worry about things like that. But if
you know, Iowa Sam showed into the Fox Sports radio
studios with Ahiky like, hey, dude, grow up, I.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
Would say no, no, I would say, I would say finally,
good for him? What if she has really supple skin?

Speaker 2 (14:36):
That's what you know.

Speaker 1 (14:37):
I would saying, you're a fair skin guy. Bet you
get a hickey real easy.

Speaker 2 (14:40):
Probably, So your thoughts eight seven ninety nine on Foxes
one of those things you don't see as often as adults.
You just don't see that.

Speaker 1 (14:49):
So if you want to chime in for our dumb
rendo thought Travis Kelcey dropping Hickey's on t Swifty's neck.

Speaker 2 (14:58):
Yeah, you know what?

Speaker 1 (15:00):
As you like to say, as the little Tortilla girl
from El Paso would say.

Speaker 2 (15:04):
The old El Paso Tortilla girl.

Speaker 1 (15:07):
Why not both? Can it be hot and trashy? Because
I'll be honest, there are times where I'm like, oh
hot and trashy. I like, we'll wrap it up with
your phone calls and then we'll talk some basketball. Do
you ever get an accidental hickey?

Speaker 2 (15:18):
Like you you fell on somebody?

Speaker 1 (15:20):
No, no, no, I it wasn't on my neck. It was,
you know, like a Snapple cap. I would just what
was biting on it? I was sucking on the Snapple
capital way where it left, I had like a circle
a crash. I had like a circle rash like it
looked like a rash, but it was a hickey. Embarrassing.

(15:41):
Let's go the phone calls from Matt. I even said
that who do we got? Dan g Hey, Let's start
with Jesse and Florida.

Speaker 6 (15:47):
I Jesse Rich Hey, guys, love show how you doing?

Speaker 2 (15:51):
We're good man.

Speaker 1 (15:51):
When you see someone as a grown up with a hickey,
I'll uh, Travis Kelsey Taylor shift.

Speaker 2 (15:55):
Do you think it hot or trashy?

Speaker 6 (15:58):
Well, I guess it depends on the situation somewhere in
the middle. But I got a good story for you
real quick. Ye during the pandemic, I started dating this
lovely lady. So I'm a little bit older, later thirties,
she's early thirties. Night before Thanksgiving, we're going both our
family's dinners. The next day, we're just talking about hickeys.
It wasn't in the heat of the moment, all of a sudden,

(16:18):
she just gives me one. So I got this huge
chickey on my neck. We're going to both parents' house
the next day, so we were like, what are we
gonna do? So she puts the makeup on there. We
get to her parents' house, nothing happens every again. We
got through today, but as soon as we get to
my house, it gets the makeup more off. My brother's
wife just looks at me and just is that a
hickey on your neck? Ye? At the dinner table and

(16:41):
everybody just started laughing, and you know that was that.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
Seems like a fun holiday story for the family, sort
of retro remember as a as a teen, you'd try
to hide these things from the adults, and it was
all these tricks that you're supposed to take a spoon
and rub it a hair dryer. Mate, you're looking for
makeup anyway, Hey, thank you for sharing. Do we have
one more phone call before we move on? One more
phone call?

Speaker 2 (17:04):
Yeah, let's go to our boys.

Speaker 1 (17:05):
Shawn in Sacramento, Sewn in Sacktown.

Speaker 2 (17:08):
What's up?

Speaker 7 (17:09):
Yeah, my graduate hotel. How y'all fellas living today?

Speaker 2 (17:13):
Man, good Man, what's up?

Speaker 7 (17:14):
Se Man? I gotta love the variety you guys keep
going every single day. One of the best shows on
talk sports radio. But for this specific topic, Man, I
think you gotta go. That is gross.

Speaker 1 (17:24):
Man.

Speaker 7 (17:24):
We don't even call those hickeys up here in Sacramento. Man,
we call those hater march Man. Just prove somebody's insecurity.

Speaker 8 (17:32):
Man.

Speaker 7 (17:32):
If you're that old, if you're that rich, if you're
doing it that big with Taylor, nobody needs to see
any kind of hickeys on your neck.

Speaker 9 (17:37):
Man.

Speaker 7 (17:38):
And to your point, Rich, I kind of I kind
of compare this to like your sory on ABS.

Speaker 9 (17:43):
Man.

Speaker 7 (17:43):
If you're a grown up living your life the way
you're supposed to at that age, you won't have ABS.

Speaker 6 (17:48):
Man.

Speaker 7 (17:48):
You're too busy living your life the right way. These
two are doing something wrong because they got time to
lead Hickey.

Speaker 10 (17:54):
Time.

Speaker 7 (17:55):
I do like SAMN relationships.

Speaker 1 (17:57):
Ever, I do like how you compared it to another analogy.
Thank you, Sean, Thank you show. If you're if you're
I said, if you're forty year older and you have
an I got an eight peck you probably don't love
your kids.

Speaker 2 (18:08):
Yeah you're away sel. You don't pay enough attention to
your wife or girlfriend. Yeah you have wade.

Speaker 1 (18:12):
You could be in shape, but have you got a
chiseled a pack and you're not an athlete for a job, then,
my goodness.

Speaker 2 (18:19):
And to wrap it up, you know what sucks My brother.
My brother's in his thirties and I could see him
getting haickey still regardless because he's a clown. But he
has a birthmark that looks like a hickey. You've seen it,
and it's constantly there. It's just like this red mark
on his neck. So everyone thinks he's a trash bag
just by the fault. It's like, every time I see
this dude, he's got haiky's. It's not a birth it's

(18:41):
a birthmark.

Speaker 1 (18:41):
It's like it's like an Remember Oprah tried to wipe
She tried to wipe. Drew breezes birthmark off his face.

it's a Wednesday. They're only fans here in the studio. Hey,
so only fan right here? Yeah, OnlyFans. He's the only
fans for Iowa man, Danny g Raiders fan, Dodgers fan.

(20:12):
He's super producing. At eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox,
we got dB with the updates. Covino and Rich on
Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 1 (20:20):
Now, we're all fans of Charles Barkley and Skulo news CB.
We're gonna get to that in a second. The NBA
may be making moves network moves. But during the break,
Danny said, hey, man, you see this because he sounds.

Speaker 2 (20:33):
Just like Oh, first of all, don't sound anything like that.
Was he showing you check out my hickey. He goes,
take a look. This is dB and I.

Speaker 5 (20:41):
We were just coordinating on the stories coming up from
midweek Major. This is not gonna make the cut, but
it's worth noting. Buffalo Wild Wings just revealed its latest promotion,
All you can eat wings and fries for nineteen dollars
and ninety nine cents every Monday and Wednesday until Wednesday,
July tenth. That participating restaurant says to call ahead to

(21:01):
your local BWW to see if they're offering the deal.

Speaker 1 (21:05):
See now, my first question to Danny G was I
love me some Buffalo Wild Wings. I love Hooters.

Speaker 2 (21:11):
I love because every time you go on says you
just love chicken nuggets with barbecue sauce on them. That's
because we get the boneless ones every time.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
But you know what, whatever wing places your go to.
I don't know if wings are the food that I
could take the most advantage off. Meaning if you go
to Buffalo Wings or Hooters or any of these places
right now, isn't it like ten or so boneless wings
for ten fifteen bucks?

Speaker 2 (21:35):
Anyway, you let me stop you right there.

Speaker 5 (21:37):
Let's talk about the fries for a second. You are
an animal when it comes to French fries.

Speaker 2 (21:41):
It is true.

Speaker 1 (21:42):
We inconsiderate. No, I was centered east.

Speaker 5 (21:47):
I was actually impressed when we were at the Graduate
in Eugene, organ Not only did Rich finish off his fries,
we gave him some fries that were leftover. He took
some fries from some listeners that were left over.

Speaker 2 (21:58):
Hold on, Pauls right there, fries off listeners plates like
what a cover? Personal?

Speaker 1 (22:05):
I feel comfortable around all listeners.

Speaker 2 (22:06):
What do you want to tell you?

Speaker 1 (22:07):
That dude that deserves a smack to the hand. I mean,
you get your get your meat hooks out of my plate.
If you got the truth I had. The monchies actually
had excuse audio of Rich eating fries off someone's plate.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
Oh god, these are God, Simmy, can you leave some
for us? I thought you were trying to lose weight.
I'm starvin it was crazy. And then he's licking his
fingers and he's looking around all hyper and for extra fries.
I gave him hand sanitizer. I have the travel size

(22:41):
get your own fries.

Speaker 1 (22:42):
So I asked Big Mike who runs his place?

Speaker 2 (22:44):
Who?

Speaker 10 (22:45):
And he?

Speaker 2 (22:46):
I said, Mike, is there Rike with the go tea?

Speaker 1 (22:48):
Is there a genre of food where there's an all
you could eat that you would actually take advantage of?
Now listen, I'm sure me you Dan Bayer I was saying,
we'll all go out one of these Wednesdays or Mondays
for endless wings, said Buffalo wild wings. But I feel
like the most that ever really have is ten to
twenty And then I'd be like, was it really that
much of a deal. Big Mike said, if there's a

(23:09):
seafood before mark my words, I don't think.

Speaker 2 (23:13):
I know, I'd put them out of effin business. And
that's almost what happened.

Speaker 5 (23:18):
I know there's some property stuff and some other layers
to the Red Lobster bankruptcy story, but one of the
things that really put them down was that endless shrimp promotion.
I read that, Yeah, like they lost so much money
that backfired on them big time. Our very own Justin Cooper, who, yes,
you know, from the movie the hit movie Liar Liar,
who's the producer for Ben Maller's show Max a Million.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
He and a buddy.

Speaker 5 (23:42):
He told a story on the air that he and
a buddy went to a red Lobster to see what
they could do personally by himself. He ate eighty five shrimp.

Speaker 2 (23:50):
Damn. Wow, he must have had the munchies too. Oh,
he always has the.

Speaker 1 (23:54):
L I think I think seafood might be the number
one answer, but my wife, my wife borat it's retro enough.

Speaker 2 (24:02):
I could do that right.

Speaker 1 (24:03):
My wife for me would probably be cookies or milkshakes,
me ice cream, nerd clusters.

Speaker 2 (24:11):
I can eat a lot of those. My wife at kids.

Speaker 1 (24:14):
My wife is big on We go to this all
you could Eat Sushi plays, and she really does. I
don't know if anyone else's wife or your girlfriend. She
will just keep ordering salmon and spicy too and over
we get our money's worth. It's like fifty dollars a person.
But when you add up what she would have eaten,
it's a deal. I don't know if Buffalo Wild Wings
is the deal, like can we know on you're hungry?

(24:35):
It's what twenty boneless, fifteen, twenty, and then you'd start
to feel like garbage.

Speaker 2 (24:38):
I hate myself after twelve, right, that seems to be
like a good spot.

Speaker 1 (24:42):
So it was twenty dollars? How many did you have?

Speaker 2 (24:45):
Man? I think I had about twelve.

Speaker 5 (24:47):
You're always taking the temperature reader. Yeah, because you know
what to be sloppiest guy in the room. Yeah, where
are you at.

Speaker 4 (24:54):
Eight?

Speaker 2 (24:54):
You're like, oh, I think I might have had twelve.
I think I might.

Speaker 1 (24:57):
So is there you think the number one answer? I
think would be like an expensive seafood hard for me
to answer because I don't eat seafood, So for me,
maybe I don't know.

Speaker 5 (25:06):
And all you could eat? I think you're right, though,
Rich one of the last standing good buffets in Vegas.
A lot of really good seafood, and people try to
get their money's worth by going back and forth and
back and forth.

Speaker 1 (25:17):
A greed because I think if it's regular food, I mean,
how many wings or burgers or fries can you have
before you're like, all right, I'm good.

Speaker 2 (25:24):
Thing is I could have them. I just hate the
eaters remorse that I have if I have close to twenty.

Speaker 1 (25:30):
I think it's always going to be like lobster rolls
and crab legs and expensive stuff that you get a
deal on. So hey, hey, happy wing eating. But then
I'm like, now fill it up to the top.

Speaker 2 (25:42):
The NBA on NBC, the return could be Apparently NBC
is closing in on a two point six billion a
year deal to get the NBA, which means that the
twenty twenty five season will be the last season for
Inside the NBA on Charles Barkley, s Q. And Neil
Kenny Smith Ernie Johnson. And the side story here is that, well,

(26:07):
first of all, I find that really hard to believe.
Like really, that's like must watch TV. It's like a
staple that seems.

Speaker 1 (26:15):
Impossible when a new network or a previous network that
had once had a sport gets it back or gets
the rights of the first time they want to make
a splash. If you watched the documentary about how when
Fox got football, they went above and beyond to be like,
we need John Madden at Pat Summer all.

Speaker 2 (26:35):
We need them to.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
Have legitimacy, to have any type of hype and you know,
make this feel like it's a real thing.

Speaker 2 (26:43):
We need the best. It's kind of like, yeah, I
mean that's a great example, but there's certain things that
go hand in hand. Your peanut butter and jelly ham
with the burger you need inside the NBA, which your NBA.
You know, when Boxing made its transitions, it's like UFC
without Joe Joe Rogan or something like that. It's like,

(27:04):
you need that to legitimize the game in a big
fight for a long time, if Michael Buffer wasn't announcing it,
it didn't feel as big. There's certain things that you
need to make it feel like an event, to make
it feel official, to make it feel real. And without
those dudes, yeah, I don't feel like it's the same.

(27:25):
Are there any other examples that come to mind?

Speaker 1 (27:26):
You need, you need the consistency, you need the.

Speaker 2 (27:31):
Credibility, and you gotta make the transition sort of seamless, right,
And they don't want people to hate the new change.

Speaker 1 (27:36):
And if NBC is gonna reattain years later NBA rights,
why would you not say perfect? Charles shack Ernie, I mean, Kenny,
it's the crew.

Speaker 5 (27:51):
I think a good example for us where we live
in southern California, and it's iHeart related back in the
day when they when they bought Real ninety two point three,
that's what they renamed it, LA's New Home for hip hop.
They had to get something huge, a staple to get
the Power one o six listeners, so they stole Big
Boy in the Morning away perfect Suddenly, yeah, suddenly, and

(28:14):
everyone in LA was like, what.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
He's on a different radio station.

Speaker 5 (28:17):
There was all this legal stuff involved, and to this
day now he's led the charge for the Real ninety
two point three and Power one of six has never
been the same.

Speaker 2 (28:24):
You need that familiarity, you need that comfort, you need
those personalities.

Speaker 5 (28:28):
Yeah, we all grew up listening to him every morning,
and suddenly the new station had him.

Speaker 2 (28:32):
Oh yeah, he's a legend in the game. And recently
we were wondering about the same sort of thing. Rich
Showtime Show Boxing lost its contract. They were not hosting
boxing anymore. We're like, well, what about Brian Custer and
that whole crew and all those guys. Where are they
gonna go? And they went right to Amazon Prime, so

(28:54):
PBC on Prime just to keep it seamless. If they
don't get inside the NBA on NBC, it's it's a fail.
That's just how I see it's a major fail. I'll
give you the analogy football. When ESPN said we want
to make a big move, we want to take Monday
night football back to its height, they went and got

(29:15):
Joe Buck and Troy Aikman.

Speaker 1 (29:16):
They said, you know what, we need this, you need it.
What gets criticized the most Apple TV's coverage of baseball
because they just put a bunch of randos on and
you know, God bless them.

Speaker 2 (29:29):
They're trying their best.

Speaker 1 (29:30):
But I could tell you friends of mine that watched
Apple TV baseball all talk about how unqualified and unfamiliar
with the product, and the announcers are trash.

Speaker 2 (29:43):
I mean some they might be great. It's just people
want their guys what they're familiar with, what they're comfortable with.
And that's why. And when you think of NBA and
you think of your guys, you think of CB Shaq,
Kenny Smith and Ernie Johnson.

Speaker 1 (29:55):
They do such a great job. The chemistry is just
next level.

Speaker 2 (29:59):
So again, NBC closing in on the deal, which means
inside the NBA's last season, his next season on TNT.
But there's a two part Ernie Johnson's sort of story.
He's saying that his loyalty is with TNT to do what.
I don't know with Turner Broadcasting. Maybe he has a

(30:20):
deal that he that Maybe when he first signed it,
he was like, you guys took a chance on me,
and I'm forever loyal. But I don't know, man, you
need that.

Speaker 1 (30:27):
So I mean, I think he or Kenny, not that
they're disposable by any means, but I think though, you
gotta make sure Shaq and Charles Barkley are on that
the whole squad are, Yeah, squad.

Speaker 2 (30:39):
You guys.

Speaker 5 (30:39):
Just reading through the comments underneath these stories, the articles
written about this the past couple of days, the viewers
seem to think that Ernie Johnson and Charles Barkley are
the big two.

Speaker 2 (30:51):
That really John the glue when you say yeah Blue,
Charles bark Years, They're the personality, They're the star, the stars.
I get it. But I still think you need all
of them to complete the chemistry. You know, I really do.
I think that's what makes it great. You take Kenny
Smith out, it's not the same. I want to see
his knock kneed posture up there on stage. I need that. Now.

(31:15):
The two part question is if Ernie Johnson holds out
or says his loyalties with TNT. Yeah, I commend his
loyalty there. But is he the Olsen Twins on the reboot?
Is what Danny g said.

Speaker 1 (31:28):
There's always one person on the Yeah, there's always one
person on the reboot that doesn't want to come back,
be part of the tour or Fuller House. As as
corny as Fuller House was the fact that Michelle Tanner,
the youngest played by the Olsen Twins, was like, yeah,
I'm not in come on.

Speaker 2 (31:44):
And everybody has the reasons. I get that that's not
the speculation, but when someone is not a part of it, yeah,
it could go on, but it's not the same, right,
So is Ernie Johnson pulling an Olsen Twins as far
as the reboot quote unquote reboot? And does everybody have
a price? As the great Ted Debiassi taught us when
we're kids, So I think of NBC. He says, Listen,

(32:06):
we want this seamless because there's two things that play here.
People love that pre and postgame show SHAQ. Kenny Ernie Barkley, like,
you say, dude, that's the most viral stuff. Of course
we see the highlights, but it's like Saturday Night Live
or any late night talk show. You don't really watch
all of that, but you see all the highlights on

(32:28):
social media the next day, these little highlights from that
show live on social media. It's such a staple of
your daily sports life. Bro.

Speaker 1 (32:37):
In the sports entertainment world which we work in, they
are constantly throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks. Oh,
get rid of RG three, put in Jason Kelce, get
rid of this person, put in that guy. Hey, we're
gonna get rid of Phil Simms and Boomer siasin and
throw in Matt Ryan. They're they're always trying to seek

(32:57):
constant We get lightning in a bottle.

Speaker 2 (33:00):
So many egos, so many personalities. Sometimes people just don't
gel in chemistry. And when you got the chemistry they have,
you got to keep it the gun the show. That's
why you put it on. Listen.

Speaker 1 (33:10):
They tried Dennis Miller on Monday Night Football, and so
they tried all types of things. So when you see,
you know who does this other sports radio networks, they
take two hosts that have never met each other and
like you're doing a show together.

Speaker 2 (33:20):
It's always awful.

Speaker 1 (33:23):
It takes real lightning in a bottle and real chemistry,
and they got it.

Speaker 2 (33:28):
It takes you chemistry. It takes time too to develop
that rhythm. They have all that. So whatever they whoever
they put in there too, is doomed to fail because
people are gonna want what they want, and that's what
we want as fans. It doesn't mean other people can't
do it, but it's not gonna be the same.

Speaker 5 (33:44):
It's funny because this conversation you guys are having is
exactly what they were talking about when the Lakers and
the Nuggets were playing against each other. Because you had
the Nuggets, who had this great chemistry, had been together
for a while, had already gelled obviously, and you have
this Laker team that had just kind of been piece
together during the off season, you know, except for a
D and Lebron playing together for a few Yeah, and

(34:05):
it takes time for every team that goes deep. You
look at how the first thing you look at, how
long have these guys played together?

Speaker 1 (34:11):
You know, I used to think it was bs, but
now I've changed my mind. You know how every time
like a championship caliber team talks about the camaraderie in
the locker room, in the clubhouse and how it's different.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
It's a real thing, right on. One person could change everything.

Speaker 1 (34:25):
You can't fake the funk on chemistry and camaraderie. So
I'm just hoping to keep it. I'm just hoping they
keep this crew together. NBC has the money if they're
gonna be paying billions for the NBA Dude teams.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
Ernie Johnson to uh to continue on.

Speaker 5 (34:41):
I'm just gonna ask you, guys, because I looked up
his annual salary, what what do you think Turner pays him?

Speaker 6 (34:45):
Right?

Speaker 1 (34:45):
Eight mil Hey.

Speaker 5 (34:47):
Cove, I was gonna say, like five six Buyer, how
much you think Turner pays four? I was gonna say four.
Sam one dollar for an hour, said, don't do that.
Least his salaries are reported five million dollars.

Speaker 1 (35:06):
It's it's like when they were revamping Wheel of Fortune
when Pat say Jack said, I'm out put secrets in
there because he's great at what he does. But they
needed to keep Vana white. You had to do everything
you could to keep Vana white.

Speaker 2 (35:19):
Some freaking Wheel of Fortune has some sense of familiarity.

Speaker 1 (35:23):
They had to double her salary and you know, God
bless her.

Speaker 2 (35:26):
So she's part of the brand at that point, and
I feel like all of these dudes are part of
that brand. Know, we don't need anybody, but we're saying,
if you want a seamless transition, you want to make
it something that people are excited about you, you pay
Ernie Johnson just to forget about loyalty here and give
him an offer he can't refuse.

Speaker 3 (35:44):
Not to branch off. But you mentioned will of Fortune,
and honestly, Jeopardy probably had the biggest dilemma when Alex
Trebek ended up passing away a huge dilemma how.

Speaker 2 (35:53):
Do you do it?

Speaker 3 (35:54):
And you know what they tried to do, remember celebrity
host after celebrity host, and then they realized something that
the real prize is the contestants. Like, so, now how
many Jeopardy celebrity contestants are there? There's all these different
tournaments and bringing back these old faces. It's not as
much about Alex Trebek now not being there. And Ken

(36:15):
Jennings has done a great job as the host, but
again he was a former competitor. So they've switched the
focus on why you should be drawn into Jeopardy outside
of the game, And I'm wondering, instead of just copying
inside the NBA and trying to continue it. Are they
going to have to figure out a different way to
how do we reel people in? Because you know, in

(36:35):
Jeopardy's way it actually has worked.

Speaker 1 (36:38):
I never thought about how you know, how NFL will
be like former players now an analyst. You're right, Jeopardy
has former players now running it.

Speaker 2 (36:48):
Yes, I know the secret, Dan Bier. What's that hot
chicks trampolines with little people. Yeah, every Telemundo's not getting the.

Speaker 1 (36:59):
Contract every Man show tactic for Garcia with the weather
for no reason. Every Man show tactic from my twentieth
thousand net net Garcia. You net Garcia with the weather
in the middle of our basketball update.

Speaker 2 (37:14):
Man. So that's a big deal though. NBA back on
NBC and Rich is that the return of John Tesh
You know.

Speaker 1 (37:22):
It's it's the best theme of all sports and sports history,
the NBA on NBC theme. It makes you think of, honestly,
our childhood and the nineties and Jordan and Barkley and
Pip and Malone and Ewing and such a big part
of the basketball you grew.

Speaker 2 (37:40):
Up loving.

Speaker 8 (37:43):
By basketball. Basketball gave me the basketball. I'm going on
dunk it. I was saying.

Speaker 1 (37:55):
I know for a fact there's a lot of people
listening to Fox Sports Radio right now that have ever
heard this story. So the composer of that famous NBA
on NBC theme is John Tesh.

Speaker 2 (38:08):
Not everybody knows who John Tesh is, though, I mean
most people the National radio show John Tesh radio broadcaster,
Entertainment Tonight, composer, composer. But he was one of those
posts that we saw. Yeah, he wady shattered Life coach.
He came up with the theme. But there's a whole
story behind it.

Speaker 1 (38:26):
I love it because when he performs in concert, which
by the way, not on my agenda, Danny, who do
you want to see the summer again?

Speaker 2 (38:32):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (38:32):
John Tesh, John Tesh, No Louke comes John Tesh, not
on the radar, but yeah, John Tesh performs and people
do go see him. And the crazy part is he
tells the story about how he came up with the
NBA on NBC theme. It's a quick, thirty second story,
but it's really cool if you do love that old theme.

Speaker 12 (38:53):
I was trying to write a sports theme and I
did not have a piano in the hotel where I
was staying, so I did probably what many of you
have done faced with a similar situation. I called my
answering machine at home and I left a message for myself.
Although that sounds goofy, what happened was that theme that
I sang into the machine is the theme that they
play every time the Chicago Bulls crushed on the basketball team.

(39:14):
Special bonus for you, folks, I have brought the original
Answering Machine tape with me so I can play.

Speaker 2 (39:19):
It for you.

Speaker 12 (39:20):
I know you were dying to hear it, but it
has to be played on the original answering machine. So
here now, the original demo tape for for pro basketball.
Hie is a message for me about the NBA theme.
Here's an idea.

Speaker 4 (39:32):
It goes like this, how cool is that?

Speaker 2 (39:43):
That's ridiculous? Like I imagine you have one of those
old answer machines, the answer machine. We'd be like, all right,
that's so funny, dude. Yeah that is great. Honestly, I
love that clip. So hey when it comes to familiar already, yeah,
you'll get that. I would imagine you get that again, right,
I want to hear that. Of course.

Speaker 1 (40:04):
You know what the funniest part of that whole thing
is how bow wait wait, he's doing his own best rockapella.

Speaker 2 (40:09):
Rich.

Speaker 5 (40:10):
Is NBC going to have to buy the rights to
the music back? Because Fox Sports famously bought that a
few years You would have to know our company is
about to get rich.

Speaker 2 (40:23):
That's how you're gonna get your holiday bonus.

Speaker 3 (40:24):
Danny, there is an update on that and and and
he's right because there was some swap of you know,
super Bowls and stuff like that, and it became became
a thing of Fox. But Tesh did say recently, I
think on the Levatard Show that he has spoken with
NBC and they're going in to re record the song,
which then would be uh.

Speaker 2 (40:43):
Changing a little. It's tests like television. He modernizes it
puts a little extra base into it. You know.

Speaker 1 (40:59):
The craziest part is if that's not John Tesh singing
the most memorable sports theme, it really just sounds like
something you would leave yourself like drunk, like.

Speaker 2 (41:09):
I have a good idea. It sounds like Jack Black
Riffin or something. Yeah, right, hilarious. Man. So that's the
backstory there, and that's part of the familiarity we're talking about.
It's back or you could simply say, hey, man, it's
evolution baby. Everybody hates change, but then we'd adjust, They'll

(41:29):
find four other people and we move on and they
find greatness somewhere else. You know, it could be as
simple as that and save the millions of dollars. Yo,
if Ernie Johnson's making five million, now, what's he gonna
want to leave? Is it worth paying all those dudes?
I think no, because I think people are replaceable. I
really do. People are replaceable. I think there's some shows

(41:52):
though that you know, it just might take a minute. Yeah,
And I think there's some shows that are an exception
of that. This is one of them.

Speaker 1 (41:58):
Yeah, let me give you one last dumb analogy and
we'll move on. It took American Idol, which I know.
I'm like the only guy still talking about the show.

Speaker 2 (42:06):
But it's great, Danny, You and Bucky Covington are still talking.

Speaker 1 (42:09):
That's like twenty years were going to talk about Survivor
in that next Yeah, I'm great. U.

Speaker 2 (42:14):
The finale tonight.

Speaker 1 (42:15):
By the way, Dan and Ryan Mergion, you're in the
back and the only guy's watched ye Taylor Hicks Rich,
I swear to god this season finale.

Speaker 2 (42:23):
He's been dragging for two weeks and that's the thing.
We can't.

Speaker 5 (42:27):
We try to watch it, my wife and I and
we're just not We'll watch like one round from each
singer in the mode. FORI, he turned the channel.

Speaker 1 (42:34):
Now. The American Idol finale was this past week, and
I really enjoyed the season. But you know what, I
think it took them like ten years to realize because
they had Simon, Randy, mad Dog Jackson and Paul Abdul.
They had a bunch of nonsense and then they finally
found Lionel Richie, Katy Perry and Luke Bryant, which worked.
But it just shows you that they could have j
Lo or Stephen Tyler whoever in there, and he can't

(42:56):
just find chemistry.

Speaker 2 (42:57):
Believe it or not.

Speaker 1 (42:58):
It took them a good decade plus to find three
new people that could mess.

Speaker 2 (43:02):
And we learn as sports like John match like John Tesh.
But we learned that at sports fans a long time ago.
You can't buy championships. You can't buy chemistry, and we're
seeing it here. I'd love to see inside the NBA
on NBC.

Speaker 1 (43:22):
It's time. It is time, little midweek major, let's do it.

Speaker 10 (43:27):
Covino and rich get you over the middle. Of the
week when mid week major major.

Speaker 1 (43:33):
Oh, I love that.

Speaker 10 (43:34):
We throw sports and pop culture headlines and topics at
the fellas and it's like the kids say, that's so week.

Speaker 9 (43:42):
Definitely major.

Speaker 10 (43:43):
Seeing our scoring midweek major.

Speaker 5 (43:58):
When you hear the horns hit, you know you have
made it to the middle of the week before we
hand things over.

Speaker 2 (44:03):
Oh no, so busy with the topics. I didn't give
you guys the red love dice. Okay, how are you
gonna do this? Yeah, I got a coin you can flip.
I want to play rock paper scissors. Oh, let's do it.

Speaker 1 (44:13):
Do paper scissors rock? Who is that that Adams? Did
you say that Katie.

Speaker 2 (44:20):
Adams?

Speaker 5 (44:20):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (44:21):
Yeah, it was k Adams As.

Speaker 5 (44:23):
That's a good idea. We're going to do that to
see who gets to have the first tape.

Speaker 1 (44:27):
One two three shoot alright, one two three shoot.

Speaker 2 (44:34):
Three shoot a. Rich goes first. Rich covered a rock
with a paper there.

Speaker 5 (44:41):
Now we are gonna go to the one filling in
for the famous guy from New Jersey, Ladies and gentlemen,
the most famous person from Merle, Wisconsin, besides basketball player
Paul jesperson Dan Bayer.

Speaker 2 (44:55):
Yeah, would we tomped the top Paul.

Speaker 3 (44:58):
He made it into one shining moment with his half
court shop for Northern Iowa.

Speaker 2 (45:01):
Thanks.

Speaker 3 (45:02):
By the way, Danny found a loophole on Wikipedia. I
do have a Wikipedia page, but I am not listed
on the notable people from my hometown.

Speaker 2 (45:09):
So there's like this weird loophole. So well, you know what,
that's more than I got dB. I had both and
he took me off of both. Really yeah, I.

Speaker 1 (45:16):
Had a WEEKIP I call him Wikipedia or wacky.

Speaker 2 (45:19):
Maybe that's why I took you off because they and
they removed me and he took me as an off
as a notable resident. Ah, that's weak, week, So check
this out.

Speaker 5 (45:27):
So I typed in the most famous people from Merrill, Wisconsin,
and Buyer's name was the first one listed. But it's
not on the front page of the actual Maryroll Wikipedia page.

Speaker 2 (45:39):
That is also weak. That is also weak, very weak.
All right, hopefully somebody can help us out with this.
But guys, let's get it go over.

Speaker 1 (45:46):
They hit a statue of you out of cheese.

Speaker 3 (45:47):
It melts every summer. Yeah, and then they just erected
again in January.

Speaker 2 (45:54):
All right.

Speaker 3 (45:54):
The NFL Network's Bridget Condat attended the OTAs that the
Chargers practice facility, and guys notice some changes. One of
the biggest changes is that there's no music being played
while players are out on the field. Word it is
that Jim Harbaugh wants complete focus in camp. Guys. No
music for the Chargers players mid week or major.

Speaker 1 (46:15):
I think this is week and I'll tell you why.
We go to someone's house for dinner or a party
if there's no music, I feel like there's a dead vibe.
It feels awkward and weird, uncomfortable. My daughter's birthday party
was last week and I'm like, I'm telling Alexa to
play all types of kids music. It makes me uncomfortable. However,

(46:35):
I work out without headphones. I know that might be
weirdo behavior, but I like to focus in on working out,
so I get what he's doing. I just hope he
doesn't upset any type of culture in the clubhouse.

Speaker 2 (46:46):
I think you're the weakest. I agree with Rich. There's
no music. It's just a gathering. It's not a party.

Speaker 1 (46:52):
You know, if you're a workout who works out with
no music weirdo.

Speaker 2 (46:56):
I mean, if you're in your car and you need.

Speaker 1 (46:57):
To focus on, like, oh, where am I making a
turn What is our instinct always to turn down the
radio for reason?

Speaker 6 (47:02):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (47:02):
That science doing that now it is this focus issue is, Yeah,
you're building chemistry, you're building camaraderie. You're getting people in
his zone. Music sets the tone, sets the mood. It
can only hands the performance. In my opinion, you're trying
to get aggressive the right music works wonders. I did
hear that they compared Hardbaugh to Will Farrell, though I
saw a press conference saying that, like, his delivery is

(47:23):
very will Farrell, but no music, no fun.

Speaker 3 (47:26):
Okay, guys, the company Open Ai could face legal consequences
for making a chat GPT voice that sounds just like
Scarlett Johansson. Now, what has her really upset is that
the company previously approached her to be the voice, and
then she turned them down. Fellas a broke Scarlett Johanson
voice in a courtroom soon mid Week or major.

Speaker 1 (47:49):
I think this is weak because I don't care so much.
But all those people that fought for their rights when
there was the actor strike and the average person was like,
who cares, That's what a lot of the actors were fighting.

Speaker 2 (47:59):
Hey, scarletre hnser could you use your voice?

Speaker 8 (48:02):
No?

Speaker 6 (48:02):
All right?

Speaker 1 (48:03):
Then we'll make up a fake one, so to wrong
and one of the few parts of AI that's very scary.
We talked about it off the air yesterday, how we're
getting closer to an election. You know, our parents are
going to be tricked by fake Biden and fake Trump.

Speaker 2 (48:15):
I think it's major because of that reason. You know,
there's so many weird stories surrounding this. I saw a
clip today, this is true, he said, yo AI's next level.
It was Mike Tyson at a press conference speaking in Spanish,
and I saw that believed it. Yeah, I believed it
for a second. That was a wait, no way, and

(48:35):
it was AI and it was so dead on and
so accurate. And I think if you're going to do
those things, you do have to compensate these people.

Speaker 1 (48:42):
You have to be clear on it. And yeah, I
think it's a major story.

Speaker 3 (48:46):
Jalen Hurts, quarterback of the Philadelphia Eagles, purchased a two
hundred and fifteen thousand dollars home in Houston for himself
and his family. He lives with his parents in the
off season, Plus, Jalen also rents an apartment in Philly
each just the regular one during the regular season. Guys
Jalen Hurts not spending much of his fortune. Is this
story midweek or major?

Speaker 1 (49:05):
I think it's at a mid because some players have
done this before. But listen, what's better that or being
the guy that is bankrupt like Antonio Brown?

Speaker 2 (49:13):
Right now? Right?

Speaker 1 (49:15):
You've seen stories of athletes like Gronk who may appear
to be dummies. But Gronk apparently, from what I understand,
only spent his endorsement money and would always bank his
salary to set himself up later in life. And listen,
not everyone needs a multimillion dollar mansion now. But you
know what, Jalen Hurts, splurge a little bit, my friend,
Enjoy life.

Speaker 2 (49:34):
Enjoy. I heard that polyamory is on the rise, not
because people want to open up their relationships, just because
it needs three incomes to survive in the household nowadays.
As the meme says, I think this is responsible. I
think it's major. He's a great role model. You know,
it's refreshing how much how many times you hear an

(49:55):
irresponsible story and how many times you roll your eyes
at the way people are living beyond their means, and
for a guy that has the money to actually be
living humble it's nice and refreshing to see.

Speaker 1 (50:05):
But based on what Dan said, we're all living in
more expensive houses than Jalen hurts that's doesn't seem right.

Speaker 2 (50:11):
Yes, correct, it doesn't seem right. But he doesn't need it.
You know, maybe he's a he's a simple man, like
simple Jack.

Speaker 3 (50:17):
Well, my Instagram reels show me that there's great houses
for six hundred thousand dollars all around Texas, So I
don't know that's in my algorithm right now.

Speaker 2 (50:25):
All of our algorithm. A couple of more for you guys.

Speaker 3 (50:27):
A town in Japan has constructed a black fence along
the street that will actually prohibit tourists from taking pictures
of Mount Fuji. Residents there are fed up with tourists
always taking pictures in the spot because it looks like
Mount Fuji is emerging from a convenience store. So guys,
keeping tourists away from your town mid week er major

(50:50):
so little is Yeah, this is a Dan buyer special.

Speaker 1 (50:53):
You know it's a good one, Dan, because I used
to have the mindset when I lived in New York.

Speaker 2 (50:57):
I was like, get everyone out of here, right back
to New.

Speaker 1 (51:00):
York as a visitor, and I look around I'm like, hey,
look at all these people enjoying.

Speaker 2 (51:04):
New York City.

Speaker 1 (51:04):
I used to be impatient, like get out of my way, listen,
embrace tourism.

Speaker 2 (51:09):
They're putting money into your town and community. I completely
agree with Rich. Actually, it's it's a story that I
would have felt different about years ago, like get out
of my way. Yeah, and now I embrace it like Rich.
And I will say this. When I was in Japan,
it's something you want. It's so majestic, that's the thing.
They take it for granted, right, like Mount Fuji whatever.

(51:30):
When you see that, it's so awesome, you can't help.
I was on a bullet train or something, and I'm like,
I gotta get a picture of this. It's incredible. So
to deprive somebody of that moment, I think is unfortunate.
You travel all that way to see some cool things.
You want to you want to capture it.

Speaker 1 (51:45):
I traveled to see a cheese statue of dan Baioce
and it had melted.

Speaker 2 (51:49):
Yeah, so they can't use their fujifilm is what you're saying.

Speaker 1 (51:52):
Yeah, I mean I did my best mister Fuji in
front of it all right.

Speaker 3 (51:56):
Last one in my attempt to fill in for the
one and only Spotty.

Speaker 1 (52:00):
I think he'd been great, Dan, you might have the
full time job. Don't tell uspot gone.

Speaker 3 (52:04):
Aiden O'Connell of the Danny's Las Vegas Raiders is giving
up the number four jersey.

Speaker 2 (52:10):
Do you hear about this? He's gonna be wearing number.

Speaker 3 (52:12):
Twelve from now on, telling Max Crosby's podcast that he
felt bad that when he was a rookie that he
actually took Derek Carr's number four, But he was a
rookie so he couldn't really say what number he was
gonna wear, so he just took the four war at
last season, now switching to twelve, but the Raiders then
immediately handed it off to wide receiver Jalen Geiton. Guys,

(52:34):
the Raiders handling of Derek Carr's number four jersey midweek
or major, it's.

Speaker 2 (52:39):
So weak, it's so immature, like Derek Carr.

Speaker 1 (52:42):
Derek Carr is sort of like one of those like
nice guys that is easy to just kick while he's
down a little bit. I mean, Danny g you're a
Raiders fan, like you have bad feelings towards Derek Carr.

Speaker 5 (52:52):
No, not bad feelings at all, and I would say
they probably should have just let that jersey sit on
the shelf at least for like three seasons.

Speaker 1 (52:59):
There was like an unspoken rule of if the guy leaves,
even if it's not on the best terms, if he
was a good player, like a star enough player, you
let it sit for a couple of years. I remember
the Mets when I was a kid. Sixteen is my number?
Doc goodin. I remember they gave it to some bum
pretty quickly and I was like, what are you doing? It?

Speaker 2 (53:18):
Just it runs me the wrong. When that part of
the story is major, you know it means a lot
people identify with the number. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (53:24):
I think the way people handle things and handle these
situations is important and they should have let it breathe.

Speaker 2 (53:29):
So yeah, major story sounds silly, but it's major.

Speaker 1 (53:33):
Thank you d b Thanks guyserbyer manweek or major U.
You know A Rod was really butt hurt about them
not retiring his number.

Speaker 2 (53:44):
That was a big story a while ago.

Speaker 1 (53:47):
No, what I gotta tell I gotta find that number
one we get ready for Dan Bayer's update. I got
to tell you who number sixteen was on the Mets
because it was one of those where you'd be like, really,
that's what they did, and it hurt my feelings when
I was a little boy. But yeah, he go Dwight
good In sixteen they gave it to like Derek Bell
Anddeo Nomo and then dougman Kaevich and I'm like, that's

(54:07):
Dwight Gooden's number, which since then has been retired recently. Yes,
so you like think of that move, how irresponsible that was.
That's what happens when you have just a bad handling
of that situation.

Speaker 2 (54:20):
Yeah, that's always a weird one.

Speaker 6 (54:21):
Yeah, I thank you NBA and T and T.

Speaker 7 (54:25):
If they go to NBC, they have to bring Ernie
Johnson because he's kind of a glue.

Speaker 6 (54:30):
But NBA on NBC is nothing without the john song.

Speaker 1 (54:34):
If they could combine the John tesh rework theme, then
the viewers win and keep the inside the NBA team
and bring him to NBC.

Speaker 2 (54:42):
Win. Win.

Speaker 1 (54:43):
Yeah, Pernie, Ernie, make it happen, Make it happen all right.

Speaker 2 (54:48):
Now.

Speaker 1 (54:48):
I wanted to bring up Paris and Bucker for a second,
because you want to make everybody angry or to get
everyone fired up, because here's the here's the problem. First
of all, listen to Patrick Mahomes talking about his teammate.

Speaker 9 (54:59):
How I'm no Harrison. I've known him for seven years.
I judge him by the character that he shows every
single day, and that's a good person. When you're in
the locker roun, there's a lot of people from a
lot of different areas of life, and they have a
lot of different views on everything, and we're not always
going to agree. And there's certain things that he said
that I don't necessarily agree with, but I understand the
person that he is and he's trying to do whatever

(55:19):
he can to lead people in the right direction, and
that might not be the same values as I have.
But at the same time, I'm going to judge him
by the character that he shows every single day. That's
a great person.

Speaker 1 (55:29):
And uh uh and I don't And can I just
see one more time.

Speaker 2 (55:35):
I don't agree with everything he said and he's peanuts
are terrible? What about your dad, Bud? Patrick? People who
talk about that, Yeah, I know that is in the news,
But can I just say first and first mostly yet
well said and couldn't have come from a more important,
impactful player. Patrick Mahomes leader of the team. Yeah, sticking
up for his guy and the owner.

Speaker 1 (55:54):
The owner's daughter even commented and just to remind her
to everyone before Trump and Biden and Hillary Clinton and
all the people that have divided our country, all the
political divide where every random uncle you have is far
right or far left. Before this place was all divided,
remember the days of I don't agree with your opinions,

(56:15):
but we could still be pals unless someone's saying completely racist,
terrible sexist stuff. If someone just has ideological differences, I
can't understand how you.

Speaker 2 (56:26):
Won't how close are actually because he said it best,
You're in a locker room full of great athletes with
great discipline who won the Life lottery and are from
all different walks of life. You expect all these people
from all over the country to have the same opinions
about everything. You're stupid, I mean, that's insane.

Speaker 1 (56:45):
And to think that these elections are always pretty close,
to think that your opinions are different than mine, well,
I can't handle that. We got to cancel you. It's absurd,
it's crazy. You have to learn to work to gather
regardless of the less someone and less someone like I said,

(57:05):
is saying some terribly abusive, divisive, racist type of stuff.

Speaker 2 (57:11):
That's, you know, unforgivable.

Speaker 1 (57:14):
Just because someone has different values morals that you do,
you don't have to agree with it.

Speaker 2 (57:20):
You could co exist, dude.

Speaker 1 (57:21):
I have plenty of friends that are wackos on both
sides of the political aisle. I have friends that are
super liberals. I have friends that are super conservatives. And
you hear what I said. They're friends because you could
be friends with someone if you disagree with them. And
I love that, mahomes like you said. The leader of
the team went to batfor Butker and said, this guy
has beliefs that I don't necessarily agree with. But guess what,

(57:43):
he's my teammate, who are allowed to have different points of.

Speaker 2 (57:47):
More powerful coming from the quarterback than anybody else.

Speaker 1 (57:50):
Let's let's go back, you know, let's go back to
that ideologies. A lot of things we've made steps in
the right direction, wrong direction, not tolerating people with differences.
All right, Well, see you guys tomorrow. Until then, Riba there, baby,
are you in the promised land? Goodbye guys.

Speaker 2 (58:05):
Later
