I just got a random thought. You know how these
(00:24):
weien eels of today, these little weeniels now you walk
around wearing band shirts of bands they don't even listen to. Yeah,
and the whole joke is a forty something. You're all
just supposed to go up to them and.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
Say, name three songs, a little weenie.
Speaker 3 (00:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (00:37):
Should we pull those same maneuvers and tactics when they
bust out their team shirts as well? Name three players
you nerd? Because I feel that way about you a
little bit with the Lakers T shirt. But that's not
even where I was going. I'm just wondering if the
same rules apply with these kids wearing like, I don't know,
Raiders T shirts CNR.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Rocking out, let's go, good thought.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
I'm only rocking this because good friends that DraftKings were like, hey,
we want to send you some gear, you're off the hook.
But all those things combined and everyone busting out their
summer's best had me thinking about it a little bit.
I mean, you know, when rich I could have got
a clippers one and gave it to MANSI. Why why
my catching strays? I don't know why my catch you strays.
Speaker 2 (01:20):

to see you.
Speaker 1 (01:24):
Spot what's up, Mama. No, no, you're.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
Wearing a Lakers You're and you're talking smack on my clippers.
Speaker 2 (01:31):
Not my wife.
Speaker 1 (01:32):
Last night I was out, I was playing softball because
you know, I'm the most athletic guy in the valley.
I got home and my wife, her father in law
left town today her her dad was in town and
they watched Clipped and said it was awesome.
Speaker 4 (01:46):
You know, it was really fun. It was really fun,
really entertaining. Ed Onneila's fabulous. It's only two episodes out,
and the at the end of the first episode, you know,
they start the playoffs, like they start playing against the
Golden State Warriors and the Lips.
Speaker 2 (02:00):
The shots that they show like on.
Speaker 4 (02:02):
Igudala Dunkan, they show Draymond Green talking smack like it's
so good.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
They did a good job the acting. I think, you know,
winning time is a little bit better.
Speaker 4 (02:12):
Ed O'Neil's fabulous Laurence Fishburn, fabulous Larry Fishburn.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
I call yeah, but you know what, I'll tell you.
You're my right hand arm.
Speaker 1 (02:22):
It's uh, I'm your right hand arm reference to Sterling's girl.
Speaker 4 (02:26):
Oh god lord v.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Anyway, anyway, it's perfect timing because Cavino and I were saying,
how NBA Finals doesn't start till tomorrow, Stanley Cup this weekend.
It's like the dog days of baseball summer. You need
a good show and there really isn't. So it's how
I'm happy that clipped is here. I'm sorry, I feel
our show is pretty Yeah.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
What about this one? Yeah?
Speaker 2 (02:46):
What about one?
Speaker 1 (02:47):
Phonehead? Covino own Rich on Fox Sports Radio broadcasts I
from the tire rack dot Com studio. Tire rack dot
Com will help you get there in unmatched selection, fast,
free shipping, free road has a protection over ten thousand,
recommending his dollars tire rack dot com the way tire
buying should be. And let's get the phones going, let's
get involved. We got Danny g on the phone eighty seven,
(03:10):
seven ninety nine on Fox with up Danny g and
we got prefet in for Iowa, Sam with a prefet
Spotty's back on the videos at Covino and Rich. If
you want to chime in, play along at home. Let's
get this wild rumpist going. But again, do the same
rules apply. I think when you see a kid wearing
a Nirvana T shirt, Hey needlenos, name me three songs?
What you hurt me? Chisel chest, name.
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Me three songs?
Speaker 1 (03:34):
Do you pull the same maneuver if they're wearing a
Lakers shirt, a Padre shirt. I think you could. I
think you could. I'll tell you what bothers me. And again,
I'm a fraud. I'm just wearing the Laker shirt. Yeah,
but you're off the hook. You just sparked the thought.
I know you got it for free, because I got
a few for free as well. And I'm out here
in LA and I'm.
Speaker 4 (03:51):
Like, well what am I?
Speaker 3 (03:52):
Gonny?
Speaker 1 (03:52):
That sound was like I figured, if they say I
wear it to bed, turns your girlfriend on, I just
don't wear She closes her eyes and says, lebron Yeah.
Speaker 5 (04:02):
In public, be careful when you ask hardcore fans that question.
That I had a freshman homeroom teacher and he asked
anyone who had like a starter jacket on, name three
players on that team. I named the entire offensive line
of the Raiders, and he's like, all right, stop stop, Okay,
got You're good, We get it.
Speaker 2 (04:19):
Yeah, Daniel Gradio.
Speaker 1 (04:21):
But there is something to be said about bumping into
someone that has your team's gear on. Meaning like if
I'm at Ralphs here in LA and I see someone
of the Mets hat on, there is that sense of like,
you give him the head nod like Mets, like Danny.
If you were out of town and you saw someone
with a Dodger shirt on MONTI, if you're in a
different state, you'd be like, oh, Dodgers. Like there's like
(04:43):
an odd camaraderie with strangers here.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
I mean I get that here with the Clipper shirt
because there's only a few of us, so we see
each other and we're like, yeah.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
Down, is that person made me donald to wear? Balance?
Speaker 3 (04:55):
Right?
Speaker 1 (04:55):
They made that conscious decision to say I'm wearing this today.
And I'm not saying you should bully anybody or call
people out, but you have to wonder are they really
a fan? Sometimes it reminds me of that old meme.
There's an old meme of this old guy with his grandson.
You assumes his grandson's an old guy and a little kid,
and a little kid's wearing a shirt that says surf
(05:16):
on it, and there's like a guy surfing on it,
and the old guy says in the meme, that's a
stupid f ing shirt. You don't surf. You never surfed.
You're lying a little turd with your ps shirt.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
F you just a shirt.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
Yeah, but again it's false advertised. You're gonna be that
angry old guy. Oh he is that angry old guy.
You aligne with a grandpa to meme? What does that mean?
Speaker 2 (05:38):
What does that say? You make a decision.
Speaker 1 (05:40):
Okay, grandpa. If you're making a decision to wear it based.
Speaker 2 (05:44):
On you like purple, what's it based on? Did you
not have your nap today?
Speaker 1 (05:48):
By the way, could you need to leave about a
half hour early to make the early bird special at
four o'clock.
Speaker 2 (05:54):
I'm not gonna lie.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
I was that kid though, because I had an Arizona
Diamondbacks cap back when it was the Rattlesnake d.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Because it looked cool.
Speaker 6 (06:01):
It was a black cap with a copper and purple
like rattlesnake on it.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
That was cool. How old though, profet in high school?
Oh no, it's not a little kid. But I like,
why do I care if you? If I have to
know who Kurt Schilling is, it's a cool hat.
Speaker 1 (06:17):
You know what that says to me? Back then, we
all made those mistakes and we all grow and learn.
Speaker 6 (06:21):
Yes, but it's different now for the kids. Now, you
have to police the kids out here. That's what I'm hearing.
That's what I'm asking.
Speaker 1 (06:27):
You can't let go of your own youth. You can't
let anyone else have youth. I'm asking. I do know
that I've had that moment where I see someone else
with my team hat or jacket or shirt on, and
you do the little COMRADERI like, Mets.
Speaker 2 (06:41):
I've had at least three good reactions with people who
see me wearing Lions gear and profet.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
How upsetting would it be because this has happened to
me where I'm like, oh yeah, Mets, and like, oh,
I'm not a fan. I just have the hat and
I'm like, oh yeah. It's like the Kardashian's wearing Metallica
T shirts or Slayer T shirts.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
You're not a fan, Get out of here with that.
Speaker 1 (06:59):
It's insulting to actual fans. Give me fire, give me
that which I desire, just like me.
Speaker 6 (07:07):
Well, now you're referencing something off reloads, So if we're
talking about Metallica, that's almost a sin.
Speaker 7 (07:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (07:12):
Well I like that song, So thank you guys for
chiming in eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox at
Covino Onrich Am, I the type of guy's gonna call
out some teenage kid. No, but I will wonder.
Speaker 2 (07:23):
Oh he likes the Yankees.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
Hey, what do you think about Paul O'Neil And if
you don't know, yeah, that that upsets.
Speaker 2 (07:31):
Me a little bit. Forget about and O'Neil, Paul o'meal.
Speaker 1 (07:34):
So anyway, we have lots to get to today. Midweek Major.
The biggest stories in the world of sports and pop
culture entertainment are the stories mid Week or major. We
do it every Wednesday, every mid week plus. Start thinking
about this Fox Sports Radio Nation. Things you gave up
for love. I gave it up for love. It could
(07:55):
be love of your mama because she didn't want you
doing that anymore. It could be of your life, you know, Hey,
in order to get with this woman and marry her,
I had to give up blank because there's a story
that involves Deontay Wilder Box. Could the ends to be random, moody, random, random, mooty, strange,
It's called strange. That's the proper term. I gave it
up for love. Start thinking about that. We'll get to that.
(08:17):
But lots to get to on the show. All right.
What's interesting is there's a lot of hype about some
young players in the NFL. And Danny g and I
were saying, how because it's middle of the baseball season
and the NBA finals are, you know, a couple of
days away, people are talking about football. Football is king regardless.
(08:38):
People want to talk about everything NFL. And there was
a list and this list was the last place teams
this past season, okay, And the speculation was, if you
had to pick and bet which one of these last
place teams could pull a worse to first, who would
(08:59):
it be? Is there an obvious answer?
Speaker 2 (09:01):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Is there is there a team where you're like, yeah,
no doubt. And that's the fun of the NFL.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
You hear it.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Every year you got four division winners, you got your
three wild cards, now, so you're dealing with seven playoff teams,
and they will love to tell you half the teams
are new every year in the NFL playoffs. Well, you
know what, there's gonna be teams do good. There's a
few teams that make you say hmm, make you think
about the moves they made, make you say, you know,
(09:29):
they're probably better. They're definitely better than last place. Can
they go to first? From worse to first? That's another question.
I think there's two AFCA teams that could do it
based on this list.
Speaker 2 (09:41):
Man, maybe one.
Speaker 1 (09:42):
Okay, Now, if you were to say, what's the odds
of this team going from worse to first? Give me
your confidence meter? Number one AFC East the Patriots. They
were four and thirteen last year, more in thirteen. H chance,
I have too many questions. Mark, There's no way, on
(10:03):
God's green Earth, not a chance.
Speaker 5 (10:06):
They are a question mark though, because they have a
new coaching stuff. We don't know who they are.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
And I heard Drake May that Jacoby Brissett's gonna be
likely the guy and he's gonna learn under him, and
that's a work in progress. The Patriots likely will be
mediocre at best. Yeah, but worse to first. The Jets
will still be above them. The Bills are still first,
and the and the Dolphins that's a question mark too.
You could argue that, no, they'll be last again, probably
(10:31):
last again. So they're going from last to last. Now
here's the one that because of an injury and a
big injury and a great division, because they were nine
to eight last year and in last place. Because that
NFC I'm sorry that AFC North was so damn good
step aside Steelers and Brown's and maybe even the Ravens.
(10:53):
If Joe Burrow and that team's back on track, they
were in last place last year, you forget that the
Ravens nine and eight, you know, they made the playoffs,
the Steelers snuck in, the Browns almost did. That was
the most competitive. Every team in the division had a
winning record. So would you be shocked if the Bengals
won that division Joe Burrow had a late start? Would
(11:14):
I be shocked?
Speaker 2 (11:15):
Though?
Speaker 1 (11:15):
That was the one that stood out to me just
based on the star power and the potential that you know,
Joe Burrow has. The guy's a winner. So is that
one impossible? No more believable than the Patriots, for sure?
As the one that stuck out to me. This is
the fun of the NFL, because I don't think you
could do this in baseball or some other sports, because
there's no way the bad team would ever get good
that quick. In fact, to where you say the parody
(11:36):
of the NFL, and no thing's changed real quick, it's
the truth, Danny g Like this happens every year in baseball.
You might as well lock up the same of the
Major League Baseball playoff teams. There's a handful that you
know they're in the middle of something like a good run,
they're gonna make the playoffs consistently.
Speaker 2 (11:54):
You can't say the same in the NFL.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
There might be arguably if I said me a lock
that you would have bet your house, your wife, and
son on Danny j one team that you're like they're
making the playoffs?
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Is it Kansas City?
Speaker 3 (12:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (12:09):
Is that still your number one answer on the board.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
You'd be dumb to bet against Patrick Mahomes Mancy.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
If I said bet everything, you got one team if
they make if they lose the playoffs, we're gonna uh,
We're gonna get you. Yeah.
Speaker 4 (12:21):
No, I'd comfortably say the Chiefs comfortably what would.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
You say cove comfortably? What if what if Jim Harbaugh
lights a fire under the ass of still taking his
name is justin justin herbelt? Yeah, I mean if if
Danny what if Antonio Piers gives the most motivational speech
in Vegas history? Still I had if I had to
(12:45):
put down all the meatballs that they pay me here
at Fox Sports Radio, would have to be on the Chiefs.
Speaker 2 (12:50):
Down all the meatballs and he read, would eat all
of them. Championship.
Speaker 5 (12:55):
I think that the Raiders defense is gonna help them,
you know, get up there and still in second place,
but the Chiefs are still the top dog.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
Yeah, just a safe bet.
Speaker 1 (13:06):
What about I mean this, I'm not even being sarcastic.
What about Profet's Lions. No, I would be very surprised
if they took that much of a step backwards India
in a mediocre NFC.
Speaker 2 (13:17):
I think the Lions that's a that's.
Speaker 6 (13:19):
A division that has really retooled itself, like people like
the Packers and people are flying into the cave, the
the the Williams kool Aid like. I think the Lions
are still winning that division, but it's gonna be a tougher.
It's a tougher road for them. It's not a tougher division.
Speaker 1 (13:32):
I don't want to be a homer, but wouldn't you
be a little shocked if the Niners didn't make the postseason?
I'd be shocked. But you asked me if I had
to pick one team, Yeah, you know, as they got
more competition.
Speaker 3 (13:43):
In my opinion, I think your Niners would be second
on that list.
Speaker 1 (13:46):
They were. Their division isn't as strong as the Chief's division.
I don't think unless you believe that the Rams second
half last year is just going to continue. Do you
think mcveigh's we reworked that team enough. I'm just not
as confident in them as I am the Chiefs. I
agree with Danny g eight. Second, what about the Titans? Titans,
they were last place last year? Out Yeah Bottle, but
Will Levis, I don't know. See the Chargers I think
(14:09):
are still decent, just because Justin Herbert is so.
Speaker 5 (14:13):
They're decent, but they need a couple of seasons to
get out from underneath that salary cap.
Speaker 1 (14:17):
Hell yeah, keep in mind they like go of a
lot of players to retool what they're doing. There were
five and twelve last year. Keep in mind again, we're
talking which team could go from worse to first? Which
team could go from worse to first? So far we're
just saying I'm the Bengals, maybe Chargers Profet Danny thoughts.
Speaker 2 (14:37):
I'm trying to look up who went worse to first? Again,
just I mean, there's a chance for the Chargers.
Speaker 1 (14:41):
Yeah, I think there's hope is the word?
Speaker 6 (14:43):
No?
Speaker 3 (14:44):
But wait to pass the Chiefs.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
The Chiefs could be eleven and six, and then they
could both be eleven and six and a tiebreaker goes
to someone.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
It's not awesome.
Speaker 5 (14:53):
I feel like the Raiders evolution is a step ahead
of the Chargers.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
I was just about to say that, Yeah, but the
we're talking about I agree with you. But since we're
talking about the last place.
Speaker 1 (15:04):
What you said about the Raiders pos, it does feel
like the answer is Bengals.
Speaker 6 (15:08):
Like I would love to say, we could maybe see
the Cardinals with a little bit more time compete for that,
but like.
Speaker 3 (15:14):
That that's coming, that was coming on the list here.
Speaker 6 (15:17):
That was that was a team in the in Cincinnati
that was last place for no fault of their own,
that was just pure injuries, not having their superstar quarterback,
and even Brown was good.
Speaker 1 (15:26):
Browning was good. They were nine and eight.
Speaker 4 (15:28):
It's just I don't even think the Bengals are a
real last place like I wouldn't.
Speaker 1 (15:32):
That's exactly, They're not a real last place.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
Man.
Speaker 1 (15:38):
The more I think about it, it's a knae for
the Chargers. It is only because they're not. Yeah, no,
it would it would be a hard definitely though. I
think they have a lot of room to improve and
they have great leadership in Justin Herbert, I think, and
Jim and Jim Harbaugh and ahead of them. But yeah, no,
(15:58):
the answer is no. Did you say if you stand out,
they stand out like, oh maybe the Chargers, Oh no,
the Chiefs. No, No, they're not gonna Did you say,
did you says you're big in the equine community. Now
we're Nember won in a jockey community.
Speaker 3 (16:12):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (16:13):
The NFC East is next up on the list. The
Commanders were in last place.
Speaker 2 (16:17):
Yeah, they're not gonna, sh Daniels.
Speaker 6 (16:19):
No. Kind of like the Chargers, they feel like a
multi year project, like it could be something, but they
need more than just one draft class.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
That could be better than the Eagles or the Cowboys,
right right, Chicago's up next. You got to ask yourself,
though I'm not saying I don't. I'm not saying I'm
buying in to the Commanders. But are we just is
it a repeat of the last couple of years where
it's Eagles Cowboys, They're both gonna make the playoffs? Who's
gonna win the division? Do we still believe that the
(16:48):
Giants and and Washington are far beneath those two teams?
Speaker 2 (16:51):
Is they just look up who the Giants quarterback? Oh,
it's still that it's just Eagles and Cowboys.
Speaker 4 (16:57):
Yeah, yeah, we're talking about next season, just when you
into the next Yeah, No, Giants and Commanders.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
I saw Nick Wright, who sometimes I think his name
should be Nick wrong.
Speaker 2 (17:13):
I like that guy, but I saw him until Thursday.
Speaker 1 (17:16):
I saw him and Colin drafting their top quarterbacks for
this coming season. And I know Collins got his USC
ties and you know he's close there, but I'm pretty
sure like Caleb Williams, they considered one of the top
three quarterbacks this.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Year, hasn't stepped on the field.
Speaker 1 (17:33):
Ye, there is a but there is this overwhelming sentiment
that Profet mentioned that people think that he is that
generational guy that will make an impact from day one
because they have some good acquisitions. They weren't terrible.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
They have a good defense. Yeah, I don't know.
Speaker 5 (17:48):
He's the one where we have to hear about every
interception he throws during camp.
Speaker 1 (17:52):
He threw two interceptions today. The dream is over.
Speaker 5 (17:55):
And by the way, in the NFC North it was
a tie for last place between Chicago.
Speaker 3 (18:00):
I go in Minnesota.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
Oh, I see that are both seven and ten.
Speaker 5 (18:03):
Yep, so either of those could go worse to first
if you think they can.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
If you really believe in Caleb Williams. And like you said,
Danny g we don't know yet. There's so much interest
for me. But again, you're assuming they're gonna be better
than the Alliance. I'm not seeing that anytime soon. Or
Green Bay, who were young and hungry, you only getting better.
So you know, it's wild answers the answer. I'm sorry, Nay, No,
(18:31):
it's not like it stands out because look, we're looking
at again all the teams that could potentially go from
worse to first in their division. The ones that stand
out are the ones with great leadership, great young quarterbacks. Right,
so it's Joe Burrow, Justin Herbert, Caleb Williams. Yeah, and yeah,
they stand out. But if you're gonna be real about it,
(18:51):
the answer is no. What about JJ McCarthy throwing passes
to Justin Jefferson?
Speaker 3 (18:57):
You know Justin?
Speaker 2 (18:58):
Oh yeah, Justin Jefferson did get paid.
Speaker 1 (19:00):
Yok, That that fact contract doesn't make you say hm, no,
You're like, yeah, they must have really high expectation. I
mean he was delivering every year until now. But again
they were seven and ten. Will they go worse to first?
Speaker 3 (19:10):
No?
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Ask yourself this though, you know how like in the NBA,
no one gave a and no or I'm not cursing
Profet Funk or Wagnle, your favorite Encyclopedia brands. No one
gave a terrible Terry Funk gave a Funk or Wagnell
about the Golden State Warriors until Steph Draymond and Clay
turned that franchise around. Right, it was like it was
like a team no one even thought about that. NFC
(19:34):
North to me went from a division I was like
to now with golf getting the money, your team being good.
Profet Green Bay All a sudden, Jordan Love went from
maybe he's a bus to hot young quarterback Caleb Williams
and JJ McCarthy and.
Speaker 5 (19:50):
He's got a running back one with him now with
Josh Jobs Jacobs.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
Field, that division went from that division for me as
a fan, went from to Wow. It's amazing how a
couple players in a couple moves can make teams that
you weren't interested in. That division is like the w
NBA for me right now, stupid, I sort of care
about it.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
Now, well sort of care about it.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
I'm tuning in. It's a compliment. Compliment Angel rees see
watches for her. Yeah, you don't forget about man, forget
about her. Let's we'll go over the rest of the divisions.
We'll talk a little maybe w NBA because that seems
to be the trend in the world. First, think about
it and what did you give up for love? There's
a sports story we'll get to all next. Covino on

Speaker 1 (23:22):
Oddly disturbing story Belogas where Elon Musk gave a tribe
in the Amazon rainforest access to the Internet.
Speaker 2 (23:30):
This is a true story. Well, it's courtesy of starlink. Starlink,
they were able.
Speaker 1 (23:34):
This is like one of those tribes that never communicate
with other people. Gave them the internet, checked back in
on them like a month later, and they were all
obsessed with pornography and social media and social media. Yeah,
and it's shown in their behavior. Yes, no, no, no,
noeper It shows you how the Internet ruins all of our.
Speaker 2 (23:55):
Lives, right.
Speaker 1 (23:57):
Like untapped dozen you know, people that don't even communicate
it like internet, oh, smuts, social media Like that's wild
to cyber truck tor their lives even more. I think
those are cool, hideous. I think they're cool. I wouldn't
drive on because I feel like if you have one,
you might as well have the last plate personally, say
douche like a car with like PlayStation one graphics.
Speaker 6 (24:19):
I don't know, do you think I drove that car
in Halo.
Speaker 1 (24:24):
Batman car Moon Patrol from the eighties. It looks like
something out of Minecraft, But I like it. When I
see it on the street, I'm like, ooh. You know
how cars all have reputation that you see a car
and you're like, oh, the typical driver is blank.
Speaker 2 (24:35):
We all there's all stereotypes.
Speaker 3 (24:37):
When I see it, I just assume Arnold Swartzenegger is
driving it.
Speaker 4 (24:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
What do you assume when you see that new Tesla
truck that looks like a roadblocks uh, video game car?
Do you think, wow?
Speaker 2 (24:48):
Cool baller?
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Do you think like jerk? Do you think like y'all
show off? Like? What do you think douche?
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Yeah, it's incompetent. It's like Batman, So I expect Batman
in that.
Speaker 1 (24:57):
Car saying and overcompensate. These two guys drive the same
exact BMW Do you so? What does that say about them?
Speaker 2 (25:05):
You guys love each other.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Every car scream some sort the Mini Cooper? What does
that say about you? I'll tell you what it means.
It's convertible though, fun, I'll tell you what it means. Off,
you know what. There's a lot to get to, but uh.
Speaker 5 (25:18):
Those last two Oh you want to do those last
two division divisions?
Speaker 1 (25:22):
Your last question though, which I could tie into sports
real quick.
Speaker 2 (25:25):
He's busy with a coffee over there anyways, my coffee.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Much like you can make an assessment based on what
someone drives, like, yeah, super huh huh huh. You like camping,
You can do the same thing with the team that
people root for. You really can't I have a super
You're like, oh, exactly, it matches your sandals.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
You're straight man, Huh. I'm kidding.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
If I say the Yankees, You're gonna have an idea
comes with a stigma, reputation. You're gonna think I'm like, oh,
you can think I'm like one of the Fusco guys
who uh has a show here on Fox Sports.
Speaker 2 (26:02):
Oh, Telly seven, Rangel, Jun Doun.
Speaker 1 (26:06):
When you hear the Raiders, you're gonna think, oh, Danny
g thinks he's hard. You know, every team also has
a reputation or a stigma to it. So just saying
moving on, yeah, no doubt. I let's say the last
two divisions.
Speaker 3 (26:20):
Uh, real quick, NFC South. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (26:22):
The reason Danny I wasn't so thrilled about this because
I think neither one of these teams stand the chance.
I would like to see Bryce Young make them, you know,
moves in the red direction.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Remember we have affiliates there.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
Yeah, what's up?
Speaker 5 (26:34):
Just tend pretend like these next two teams are gonna
go worse to first.
Speaker 1 (26:38):
Let me tell you. I mean, even Mike who runs
this place, who roots for them, doesn't believe that. Mike,
who runs this place. Again, we're talking about which of
the last place teams could potentially go from worse to
first in the NFL, and the overwhelming answer is the
BEng Bangs the Bengals.
Speaker 5 (26:53):
Anybody here, We're nine to eight, and then I think
Chicago after that.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Yeah, because there's just a lot Yeah, they.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
Have the talent, right, it's not just quarterback. They made
a lot of as they kicked ass in that draft.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Yeah, I hope. Uh. You know when you look ahead
at the primetime schedule and some years the NFL nails it,
and then sometimes there'll be like a Week five game
and it's like, oh, those two teams aren't what we
thought they'd be and it ends up being a crap game.
I hope some of those NFC North games later in
the year mean a lot like. It would be great
that if like a Bears Lions game or a Packers
(27:26):
Bears game like, because those are some great traditional rivalries.
I really hope that comes down to the wire. I
would love to see all three of those teams win
ten games and battle it so we shall see. But
the last one, I mean, I'm a Niners fan, so
I think this is laughable.
Speaker 2 (27:40):
But the Cardinals Marvin Harrison Junior.
Speaker 10 (27:43):
He means the Cardinals. The Cards, so I mean Cards.
They can make strides in the right direction.
Speaker 1 (27:52):
Listen, every team, as we know in the NFL, it's
rare that you stay at the bottom for a long time.
You may not get to the They were way at
the bottom. Yeah, dude, four and thirteen last year. That's
missed Obbels. You know what I wanted to bring up,
I don't And again with your forty nine ers in
the same division, impossible, Kim Possiblz. No, Yeah, not happening.
So the only two teams that have somewhat of a chance,
(28:17):
as we broke it down live here on the show,
the Bengals and the Bears, and we give like drops
to the Chargers still improve. But now, wanted to bring
this up simply because it'll give some Chargers fans hope.
I know you're thinking, first of all, who's a Chargers me? Secondly, MANC,
(28:37):
we don't love it against you. I'm gonna give you
a hope here, Manzi, Okay, give me hope because in
twenty ten, Yes, the forty nine Ers had Mike, Mike
Singletary and Jim Tomsula as their coaches. Right six and ten,
before that, eight and eight, seven and nine, before that,
five and eleven, they were losing, losing, losing. Jim Harbaugh
(28:59):
came in his first year. That team went from six
to ten to thirteen and three, I'm saying, and lost
in the NFC Championship game against the Giants on a
fumble on overtime. So sometimes good coaching at a culture
change could make a difference. And if people were so
right on Kavino over the last five years of Justin Herbert,
(29:19):
Justin Herbert, he just needs the right weapons and coach.
Let's see it. Yeah, let's see it. Gave him props.
I mean, there's only so long where don't you think,
Danny g If nothing big happens this year, the whole
Herbert's Awesome narrative has to sort of fade a little.
Speaker 3 (29:33):
Yeah.
Speaker 5 (29:34):
Well, and also you're talking about culture change, then you
gotta at least mention the Commanders because owners, new ownership,
the whole thing, new coaching staff, new quarterback who is
going to be a stud. So yeah, they're gonna be
a little bit of a project, but they're gonna definitely
head direction.
Speaker 1 (29:50):
That's why Cavino, when you guys all left like you
were doctor Evil when I said, well, the hold on Commanders.
I'm not saying the Commanders are gonna win, but Drake
may coaching changes, culture changes everything in that era. Last year,
do we all think c. J. Stroud was gonna take
the Houston Texans to the playoffs and be like an
impact team?
Speaker 4 (30:10):
No, nobody thought that.
Speaker 3 (30:11):
So I mean.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
You're saying there's a chance they're rich based on this
discussion though, right, Yeah, take it off sports for one minute.
When it comes from worse to first. Who had the
biggest glow up in recent history that you could think of?
Speaker 2 (30:26):
Clay Achin.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
Really, that's the nerdiest looking dude I ever seen my life.
But by the end of Idol he was like a
gay Hearthrow. Who's the biggest like Steve Erkle to Stefan
Erkale that you could think, I'll give you another worst
to first zero to year. She was gorgeous but became
a twelve. Cavino and I interviewed and I'll name drop.
We interviewed Kerrie Underwood while she was on American Idol,
(30:51):
and she was beautiful, but she went from she went
from beautiful to like, Hollywood go up. What do they
say you're You're not ugly, you're just poor. Yes, yeah,
like when a good looking person gets the Hollywood glow up,
they go from good looking to shockingly hot.
Speaker 2 (31:07):
Right, And she was.
Speaker 1 (31:07):
Already pretty, but I totally hear what you're saying. I
got one for you. We got the best glow up. Yeah,
I'm gonna take it off in here. No, how about
that kid from where the Miller's remember he was like
the big headed nerd son Will Poulter or whatever.
Speaker 2 (31:22):
Uh.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
He played Kenny Rossmore in the movie Will Poulter. He
went from like goofy, Now he's like Jack, like a
young Arnold Schwarzenegger, and he's like super hamp you don't know, Yeah,
he's like a stud. Now he's a shoe yo. He
was the goofiest kid you'd never seen, but the goofy
redheaded kid that played the fake son and where the
Miller's where Jason ski Bring jacked and handsome and he
(31:47):
has like a good he got a pomp and he's
like Johnny Bravo or something you never saw it, No,
look him up. I mean he's really like Chris handsome
leading Chris Pratt, Chris Chris Pratt on parks and recreation
John Yeah, j Hey, I'm just saying worse the first right, Yes,
And it's not all about the ladies. I'm trying to
(32:08):
keep the fair props to the guys too. You know,
everybody has hope, is what we're trying to say and
send here. Everyone has host Yeah, Rich is dreaming about
Will Pulter. Rich is mad about the Where the Miller's guy.
Rich is like, there's no way that nerd is handsome.
I'm telling you, you know, Manty, go to your update
because now I'm we're going to rack my brain like
woman or guy who has had the best glows the.
Speaker 2 (32:29):
Question that is a good question.
Speaker 4 (32:31):
All right, We're going to start in the WNBA because
we know how big it is right now in the
news cycle. The League announced that they have rescinded the
second technical foul that was called on Chicago's Angel Reese
last night. If you didn't see it, she disagreed with
an official on a call kind of blew him off,
and then she received very quickly two technical fouls and
was ejected. They have rescinded that second one. Let's move
(32:53):
on to the NFL, where the Browns announced that they
have extended head coach Kevin Stefanski and GM Andrew Berry.
We don't know the details though nothing has been disclosed.

But look at you. Not wanting to give the credit.
They're not naturally handsome. No, no, I'm saying someone like
Kelly Osbourne is unrecognizable. Yeah, but I don't I'm not
gonna bad matter. I'm not saying that she looks she

next hour. Now, you posed a fun question. I thought
it two more. We were talking about glow ups because
there was a list of the last place NFL teams.
Speaker 2 (38:00):
We're speculating who of the last place.
Speaker 1 (38:01):
Teams has the best shot to go from worst to
first and unanimous Cincinnati Bengals.
Speaker 2 (38:07):
With a healthy Burrow and that team, they have very.
Speaker 1 (38:10):
If Joe Burrow grows his hair out, they definitely have
a better chance.
Speaker 2 (38:14):
If he grows his hair like that fake picture he
fell for.
Speaker 1 (38:16):
Yeah, that Anakin Skywalker. Look, that is a maze. Yeah,
then I think he has a real shot. But they
have a leg about the vision. But as far as
glow ups, it's also about reputation. Right Kia, I feel
got a major glow up just as a brand. Right
you at Kiya, so is having to kill you? At Kia,
you must be broke. Now you see a car, You're like,
oh huh, that's pretty nice. It has like a nine
(38:39):
inch nails logo. Now that's that nine inch nails car.
Speaker 4 (38:41):
I like it.
Speaker 1 (38:42):
And we always say Visio. Visio went from the weakest
TV to like, yeah I got I got a video.
So you're extending the glow ups beyond sports, beyond women,
beyond worse the first you know, I think they're right
up there with the best.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
I spot.
Speaker 1 (38:55):
You said there was some nerd that you and Mike
who runs his place. Does it always have to be
a nerd? Because it was was Harry Potter related. So yeah,
but Harry Potter is one of the largest franchises in
the world. He played a nerd though has more money
than the queen. You know, you could do with your
want anyway. Uh, who is the guy from Harry Potter?
Is it the Matthew Lewis. Matthew Lewis who played Neville
(39:17):
long Bottom. He had like buck teeth and whatever. He
after the final movie like did a photo shoot where
he was like a stud, like ripped, he's got abs.
I looked him up. Yeah, handsome. He turned into a
handsome guy. But yeah, yeah, like like chompers.
Speaker 3 (39:31):
You know who.
Speaker 5 (39:31):
We watched her grow up on the show on Modern Family.
She was a total nerd Aerial Winters.
Speaker 1 (39:36):
Oh yeah, yeah she You know what though she was
she was always one of those people that were they
just because you have glasses, they make you seem like
they're He was always in the Matthew Lewis. How about
our good pal Jerry O'Connell. He was forever known as
the chubby guy and stand by me, You're like, wait,
this is the same dude.
Speaker 3 (39:53):
Yeah, it's a good one.
Speaker 1 (39:54):
You know. So from Wor's to first who went from
I'll give you a glow up. Yeah, you're bringing up
TV people. Really good dude, n p h Neil Patrick Harris,
he was nerdy, little Doogie howser. He played a womanizer
on How I Met Your Mother, and he's like he's
one of Patrick Harris is one of the He looks
like beams that he became an adult. That was the
(40:17):
one that really a glow.
Speaker 2 (40:18):
That's like an iconic.
Speaker 1 (40:21):
But like.
Speaker 2 (40:23):
That's some respect. I'll get out of here.
Speaker 1 (40:25):
He still looks like Doogie howser to me, Uh, you
failed this this quiz.
Speaker 3 (40:29):
You know who got like ripped?
Speaker 1 (40:32):
Remember the actor Kamel nan Gianni. Yeah, he was like
very nerdy. I know when he was in the was
it the Eternals? Yeah, Marvel movie. He got all ripped
and jacked. The only one that knows that.
Speaker 3 (40:46):
I was thinking of some athletes.
Speaker 5 (40:48):
How about just recently DJ Burns, we saw the photo
of the forty five pounds that he dropped.
Speaker 1 (40:54):
That's actually a good one. You know, think of more
athletes who went from Worris to first or maybe just
Steve picked their game up completely. What he's stunk? And
what about skinny goofy beardless James harden the beard always
and then and then then he got the beard. The
beard always helps man. But then he then he got
like a little thick again. It started his hands out.
Speaker 6 (41:16):
Losing the hair for Lebron James help him if he
took it home maybe one day.
Speaker 2 (41:20):
I don't know.
Speaker 1 (41:21):
He has to, yeah, he has to.
Speaker 6 (41:23):
Feel like after Lebron James lost the hair, I scoop Blake. Okay,
we respect you.
Speaker 1 (41:27):
Now he's got a he's got to shave the dome though.
All right, so thanks again for adding to the list.
Cavino and Rich. Now next hour, you gave it up
for love. There's a story about Deontay Wilder, heavyweight chant,
former heavyweight boxer or I mean current he just lost.
He should be a former boxer, should be well, mama
