we do every Tuesday.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
But we're wrapping this up with your phone calls.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
Light them up. Things your grandparents will be shocked by
based on the money we're talking about today again, Jason Tatum.
The super Max deal, five year, three hundred and fourteen million,
largest in NBA history, And you just heard in our updates,
or maybe it didn't, depending on where you are. Donovan
Mitchell got one fifty for three years, so again people
(01:27):
getting paid. He signed an extension with the cash one hundred.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
These are lottery numbers. These are not like, oh, it's
a nice salary. These are like these guys are winning
the Mega million power Ball every year. It's it's insane.
But you know what the revenue is there. So who
do you rather have the money? The players or the
rich ass owners. I'll go players every time. So you know,
if the NBA is worth billions and billions and billions.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
And billions, paid that money because they have proven there
they're worth it. You know, they're bringing me in that
type of value. So let's wrap it up with your
phone calls. Things your grandparents would be most shocked to hear.
Doesn't have to be sports related. It just could be
life related. But you know what, when it comes to sports,
I had another one. Rich because you say I'm an
(02:12):
old guy because I still watch highlights on TV. Yeah,
that's you know, they'd be like, what do you mean, Like, hey,
they're looking for the newspaper, like nope. And you don't
even watch the games half the time.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
You just wear the timebox score, Sonny, exactly, the boxingars
on your phone. Grandpa, you know a great example. Last night,
I'm at the gym and I'm watching J. D. Martinez
at an extra inning bomb for the Mets, and I'm
sitting there, you know, on the gym doing bench press
with my phone on my belly, watching the Mets game.
So the fact that you could watch sports anywhere with
(02:45):
your parents.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Not even your grandmar you back in the nineties, you'd
wait all night if you missed your game. You'd wait
all night just to see the highlights, to see what happened.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
You know, Danny I said, West coast people never got
this thought, which was on the East coast, the late
games wouldn't it be be They wouldn't to be printed
in the paper like you'd see the morning daily news
would be like, oh, Yankees won, Red Sox lost, Mets one.
Wait a minute, Dodgers's It would say late game, yeah exactly,
(03:18):
And the next day you would just get a double
buck score like I wonder if they lost their one.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
I guess I'll find out tomorrow. All right, So what
would they be most shocked to hear? Maybe it's a
rule in sports, maybe something in life. We gave you
our top answers, wrapping it up with I want to
see if JP's.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Back, Dan, Yeah, I think he's back in Michigan. JP
in Michigan.
Speaker 5 (03:37):
Great show, great topic, guys, Hey, who was the first
million dollar athlete? And on four major sports?
Speaker 2 (03:46):
We started off by saying, Dave Winfield, is that you got?
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Was it? No? One? Ryan? He No.
Speaker 5 (03:50):
I was in this press conference back in the eighties
in Flint, Michigan, and it was Bobby Hall was the
first million dollar athlete in the four major sports. And
Gordie Howell said, I'm mister Hockey, who in the hell
do you think you are? And that was when I
believe he was with Hartford.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Yeah, Winfield was the first in baseball in baseball? Okay,
So oh wow, great one man, Thank you JP. So
what else would shock you the most? Or shock your grandparents?
I should say, JP? Yes, what would shock your grandparents
the most?
Speaker 5 (04:27):
Uh? Well, my grandfather was a beekeeper and so the
price of honey today and he was a beekeeper most
all of his life, and he was basically giving it
away for pennies back back in the day. And he
would be shocked the same thing he was a farmer,
the price of the price of crops, the price of
(04:49):
paying for this stuff for your fields and fertilizers and stuff.
He did it most all of his life, and it's
just where money is today.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
That's a great call, man, thank you.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
He'd be shocked that killer be Bobby Bonie is still
getting paid every year.
Speaker 6 (05:05):
Yeah, it's like fifteen dollars for a little thing of
honey at the grocery store.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Nah, yeah, insane.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Yeah, the uh.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
I was thinking more about how we even consume sports, Cavino,
like the simple fact that you wouldn't even get to
see the out of town teams unless it was like
the game of the week.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Like maybe your grandparents would be.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
Just shocked by every Sunday Well you have Sunday ticket
and they're going back and forth on the red zone
every single game. They'd be like, what's going on here?
So there's just been a lot of changes in sports.
I think finances definitely one of the biggest ones. And
also maybe you know if they were a hard nosed,
old type of guy.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Grand You know, your grandfather rich.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
He might be fascinated by the idea that, you know,
the NFL, like late hits and how soft hal changes.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Yeah, your grandpappy, old school New York guy Rich. How
do you feel about a condensed game on like the
MLB app? You know you have, like the recap condemned
game Loveda's That's how my dad consumed.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Really, you think you let every day? This is fantastic.
Speaker 6 (06:03):
Oh you just mentioned an app. Yeah, my grandfather had
a bookie. He would be shocked that you could gamble
on your phone.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Oh with draftings, Oh they would Yeah, they would have
been done for it.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Now hold on, yeah, Grandpa, use our code see our show.
Legally I could gamble and smoke weed.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Yo.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Who knows what our grandparents have been up to.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Wait a second, Yeah, and there's trans athletes everywhere, Grandpa,
Well that's amazing.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I got some news for you.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
I'm a woman. What what the hell?
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Who knows what.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
Our grandparents would have been down with though? Right though?
Holy so we say they'd be shocked by these things.
They may be excited about these things. Hey, Josh and
Philly you're on the show.
Speaker 7 (06:47):
Good morning, Camino and Rich How are.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
You, good morning man, that's up, bro.
Speaker 7 (06:51):
I just before I talk about my grandfather, I just
wanted to say, I like, when you guys take over
for the Dan Patrick Show, I've actually got to know
you and listen to your show now because of that.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Yeah, it means a lot. And that's a lot, brother,
part of the reason why we do it, man. It's look,
it's an honor when I ask us, but we also
want to talk to some new people and you know,
get to know you a little bit.
Speaker 7 (07:11):
Yeah, yeah, okay, So why I called for my grandfather.
He was a huge boxing fan and he actually died
a couple of days before Manipaciao and Foyd Madeweather fought,
and he hated freyd. Made Weather because he said that's
what was wrong with boxing. But when I was younger,
I think boxing pay per views were like twenty twenty
five dollars, and if he was alive today to see
(07:33):
that it's like over one hundred dollars to watch like
Tyson Fury fight. I don't know. I think he would
just fall over again.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Yeah, without doubt, man, we're big fight fans as well.
And sometimes we're shocked. We're like seventy five bucks for
people like they're not even household names. I know him
because I'm a fight fan. I can't even imagine what
your grandfather would think. And we're wrapping it up with
Mo and Arizona.
Speaker 8 (07:57):
What up Mo morning, doing good job showing them for
Dan Man, thank you, I got I gotta go with
his little off sports topic. But uh, for one, my
grandparents would be surprised one that they actually put water
in a bottle and then let alone the price of
bottle exactly. Yeah, we used to drink water than water hose.
Speaker 7 (08:17):
When I was a kid.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
So yeah, shout out to the host, shout out to
all the hosts. Yeah, I kept us high Dome. I drove.
You know, we were on a family road trip.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
And that's a hitch of the most because you can
go to the supermarket and you feel like you got
a deal becaust it's like, you know, five bucks or
a case of water. When you when you go to
like a truck stopp or a gas station and you
buy a bottle of water and it's like four seventy
nine or something. That that grinds my gears. That gets
my goat that that would get your grandparents super fired up.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
But I think we covered it all.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
Could you know the things that would get your grandparents
super confused?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
To be honest, you know your grandparents just to move on.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
They he's so shocked to see the weenial generation, like
the younger kids with all the the broccoli head hairdooes
and they want to a bunch of package. There's a
bunch of old packers outside. No, those are just teenage
boys dancing funny outside. Grandpa, what are they saying. They're
saying skibbity ohio riz. That means, uh, they think you're
(09:21):
toilet water, Grandpa.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
Some some kid down at the at the drug store
just called me the wrizzler and he had funny hair.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Tell you, but you know what I see.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
I don't want to disagree with you because I want
to move on. But our grandparents would would not be shocked.
And I'll tell you why. They had buzz cuts. They
had buzz cuts. They wore disco shirts of the seventies.
They raised parent did not have disco shirts. They did
buzz cuts. What are you talking about your grandparents? Your
dad was in the disco you Goonberger you're not your grandma.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
Grandfather woar, he wasn't my grandfather, My grandfather wo or
like disco seventies shirts into the eighties because he just
didn't go shopping.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Well that I would say your grandfather's the exception, because
that's your dad's generation.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
But they saw their kids be hippies.
Speaker 4 (10:12):
They saw their grandkids have like lines in their hair
and mullets in the eighties, So I don't think they'd
be shocked by alpaca.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Kid hair in the two thousand.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
I think they would. I'd be like, oh, there's a
bunch of alpacas out here. He's funny.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
What's going on these funny looking kids? Why are they
wearing pajama pants and crocs? Anyway, moving on, gotta talk
about you know parents.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Your grandparents saw your Zeke Cavalci's were awesome in the
in the nineties.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
You better believe, because at least I looked presentable and
neat and groomed. These kids today jump out of bed
and put on rubber shoes like we're living real life idiocracy.
Way can I show this a new movie? Yeah, Grandpa,
that's real life now.
Speaker 4 (10:49):
Yeah, But your grandparents thought you wearing sneakers everywhere was
so weird because they wore shoes.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
I looked nice and neat and I comb my hair.
So anyway, we talked about travel baseball before and we
did mention that, man, a grandparent would be so perplexed
as to how expensive it is to just have your
kid join a travel sport. Now I'm not at that state.
(11:15):
My daughter is getting into cheerleading things like that, have
a teenage daughter. But you know, we hear from friends
all the time that travel sports is just so beyond
expensive and the commitment, the time commitment, especially if you
have multiple kids and you're going from this game to
that game. That is putting so much pressure on these
families to even keep up with the Kardashians, to keep
(11:38):
up with the Joneses, to keep up with these other families.
But you don't want your kid to fall behind. So
you're paying for coaches, You're paying for hitting coaches and
specific specialized fielding coaches, and it costs a lot of
money just to get them in these leagues and to
travel that it's just really in some ways as awesome
as it is tearing families apart.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
That's suit it's taxing.
Speaker 4 (12:01):
Yeah, it's taxing on a family's time and resources and everything.
You had to tie back to the last conversation, I
think previous generations would be shocked how we prioritize those
things like oh, we're not you're not going away, or
we're not going on that family trip.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Oh yeah, Johnny's got his hockey tournament. Like do you.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
Remember when you were a kid like a there would
be kids even in the eighties and nineties that would
miss a game because it's like, yeah, family vacation. Now
it's like, can't go on family vacation. Little Gregor's has
a soccer tournament.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Like people are our priorities are different. And again I
get where it comes from. You don't want your kid
to fall behind because another family's kid has that sort
of money to get him those coaches or put him
into that camp. Dude, But growing up, my parents, our
parents didn't throw us in these camps because that's what
rich kids did for the most part. Right, you, you
may have dodged a bullet with the fact that your
(12:51):
daughter is more too arts than sports. Like your daughter,
You're done. You the fact that acting class is cheat bros.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
No, no, no, I'm saying traveling commitments, money all that time.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
But I'm saying everything's expensive like that.
Speaker 4 (13:04):
No, of course, I'm just saying, like the idea of
you being like, hey, dude, I'm gonna be in Idaho
for the weekend. Why oh my kid's soccer tournament. Then
I got to go to Oregon, like I.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
Have friends they even take At least that would have
been helpful and teaching her how to feel the ground ball.
I can't teach her how to act out a scene.
I know nothing about the acting world.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
No, But I'm saying, if you like our buddies, our
buddy Mauser who lives in Cincinnati. Every week, that guy's
group texting us like he's in a different city because
his kid plays travel hockey. I have a buddy who's kids,
like every week he's in a different state. And I'm like, dude,
do you have a life or do you just are
you just a soccer dad?
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Though, Now, if you're living that life, I'm sure you
know someone who does. If not, there's a story about
Yadier Molina. Now, certain people are synonymous with certain brands
and certain things. When I see Yadier Molina, what do
you picture him in? How do you picture him. Who
(14:03):
does he represent? I picture his tattoos, and I picture
him killing the Mets every time they played. I hate
him as a player, respect him so greatly as an athlete,
but Yadier Molina destroyed the Mets for a better part
of two decades every time there was a big game.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
What team do you picture him on?
Speaker 4 (14:21):
I mean one team and one team only exactly, Saint
Louis Cardinals. You picture him in red.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
I think that's the big part of the story here. Well,
of course it is, so Yeah, he has great tattoos.
He comes from a strong lineage of great baseball players. Yati,
Puerto Rican superstar, played what nineteen years with the Saint
Louis Cardinals, and he's in the news because of his
(14:49):
son's his kids travel baseball team.
Speaker 4 (14:52):
Yeah, this story, and by the way, Yati one of
those players, one of those few players that.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
For the this generation.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
For a guy to play on one team his whole
career is far and few between. That's just not how
it is anymore. Free agency almost in you know, enables
people to just go after the money more than ever.
This guy is one, two, three, four, five, six, hibit
like over a ten time All Star unbelievable life in
(15:21):
Saint Louis.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
But here's the funny part. This story sort of catching steam.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Now his son plays travel ball and.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
What do you believe it?
Speaker 4 (15:31):
What team do you think his sons on and travel ball?
I remember when you were a kid. When I was
a kid, I was on in Little League.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
I was on the Giants and the Brewers and the Mets,
and then I was on a travel team where the
Indians back then. Like, you remember the teams you were on? Right?
Of course, No, who doesn't. There's some people that don't.
And you know what I say immediately, Oh, so you
don't remember.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
You must have sucked because you erased those memories. You
must be shock.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
You must be the worst Little League kid if you
don't remember the team were on. Well, dude, you may
say that, but I'm shocked because sometimes I'll talk.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
To it, like, you know, then they have bad memories.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
I will talk to people that are thirty south and
forty something and they don't know their school teachers' names,
they don't know their coaches names.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
I'm like that because they're both remember they're morons. And
you know what, that's my hot take of the day.
If you don't remember what little league team you played for.
You were the worst, You were the worst player on
the team. There's no because that's how you're protecting your
childhood memories. You erased it from your memories. Who remember
(16:33):
the team that they were on? Give me a break.
I'll back up Covino.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
If you don't remember the little league teams were on,
you erased it mentally because you erased your suck.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
And if you forgot your teachers, you're just an idiot.
And I get it. That is a long time ago,
and I'm starting to forget myself, but I remember most
of them. Look, I get it. I get that one
that was the greatest student.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
The fun of this story is that Yadi Air Molina
sittingymous with the red and white the Cardinals All Star
Hall of Fame guy. His son plays for the travel
Cubs and Yachdi Amerlina's coaching, so he's wearing a Cubs
uniform and social media and Cardinals fans are losing their mind.
(17:19):
Here's some of the quotes. A cursed image. This is
a sin I just threw up in my mouth. Fans
are losing their mind seeing Yachty in a Cubs uni.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
You know what.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Again, NL rivals the Cubs, different colors. Doesn't look right,
but he's like all out deck now in Cubs gear,
Cubs bad. It looks like he's playing for a real
major league Cubs team.
Speaker 6 (17:44):
It's crazy, it's blasphemy. This is like when Shaq had
the Celtics green on Oh.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
So uh based on the Major League.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
Two major examples, Like you said, Shack in the Green
and Cavino. I always thought of Johnny Damon Yankees Red Sox.
But do you think think most people would have a
problem doing this themselves?
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (18:06):
And I notice it too, Like I notice it and
I get it. You gotta support your kid. I see
my brother in law wearing like Red Sox gear.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
And like, dude, we're Yankees fans. How could you.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
You know, Budd, he's supporting his kid. Some people don't
care as much.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
I think. See it's weird, man, That's what makes his story.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
Extra special rich, because I'm like, they're not real fans
like me. Meanwhile, this dude played for the Cardinals, so
clearly he devoted his whole life to baseball. He cares
more than I do, and he's willing to.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
Wear the cups n for well, with that said, your thoughts,
Let's say your kid was on a team and they
were named after the team you hated most, or your
son was God willing, your kid got drafted into the
BIGS team.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
That's a big difference, right, Yeah, there's a bit. There's
a big difference.
Speaker 4 (18:59):
But we'll take your feedback next right here, Covino rich

We had Pooka Nakoula this week. We played was it
Hawk Tua or Nikula with Pooka Nkula And that's on
(20:56):
Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Every week.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
We do over promised, so look that up and thanks
again for hanging out. We got prizes to give away
Iron Mike trivia later on. But tucking Yadier Molina, Now, look,
he's doing a great thing. There's no question about that.
He's coaching his kids his travel baseball. But the controversy
here is the fact that the guy you know as
(21:23):
a cardinal nineteen years on one team. That's also a
big part of the story. It's very rare nowadays, nineteen
years with one team is wearing full on Cubs gear
because his kids play for the Cubs. Now, by the way,
on a side tangent, we explained that it does make sense.
(21:46):
It makes sense that he has kids playing on travel
team because he's rich. But now it's the norm, and
that's what puts regular families in a really tough situation.
I gotta keep up with the every kid has special
coaches and camps and are playing travel ball, and it's
(22:07):
putting families in a really tight spot just to keep up.
But based on this, it's got social media going wild,
like how could Yadier Molina be wearing Cubs gear? And
like I said, it's not just Cubs gear, it's Cubs everything,
Cubs duffel bags full on, full on looks like.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Major league gear. I mean, the thing is, if it
doesn't matter to.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Him, Cubs, jackets, he's got that sort of silly.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
That it matters to us. You're absolutely right about that.
Speaker 3 (22:37):
I'm shocked in fact that he's so freely not caring
because he represents the Cardinals, when guys like you and
I just fans, would might would maybe have a stronger
stance at this, which which kind of debunks our stance
a little bit. I mean, he's a he's a player,
not a fanatic, right, I mean, that's that's the thing,
(22:58):
and it is interesting.
Speaker 4 (22:59):
I go to my barber, Addie. He's a big Clippers fan.
No pun intended, but it's just funny. He's a barber
and likes the Clippers.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
He puts a Clippers cape on you when he cuts
your hair. He told me that he has clients that say,
don't put that crap on me. Do you have something else,
like there's Laker fans in LA that refuse to get
their haircut with a Clippers cake.
Speaker 6 (23:26):
Yeah, don't want to be cursed. I was gonna say
that's a Donald Sterling curse.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
Yeah, I don't want to be cursed. I came here
for a haircut, not for your hexing. Right now, I
get out of here. I read it, cursed head. I
get it.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
Your your brother will wear all different team gear because
he's like, yo, it looks good, Joe, And you're like, dude,
you're a Yankees fan. Why are you wearing a blue
Jay's hat. He's like, yeah, but it goes with my
blue sneakers.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
That's just weak.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
In my opinion, that's generational because you here's why, because
you could let's say you want a green hat. You
don't have to wear an athletics hat, you idiot. You
could buy a green Yankees hat nowadays. So it don't
give me that you needed that color hat. That's just
about his Would it be unloyal? About as unloyal as
you could be disloyal? This is disloyal as you could
(24:11):
be to your team.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
Back in the day. I get it.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
They didn't have as many options. Now you can get
your team in any color under the moon. So that
makes such sense to me.
Speaker 4 (24:21):
It is funny to think, though, that we're talking about
loyalty like it's a wife or a girlfriend.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
Noo, Like my kids it's a color of a team,
it's a way of life. And I think that you're
just not as loyal, You're not as much of a fan.
Even though Yadier Molina is breaking the rules here, he's
doing it for the love of his kids. If you're
doing it just because I don't know, I think it
says a lot about your character.
Speaker 4 (24:43):
I said to me, that's ridiculous saying that I'm less
of it, to say that I'm less of a fan.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
You know, half the time you're not watching it. I
was watching the Mets yesterday. That's your team. You weren't
even watching. You were flipping around in your flip flops.
Danny g would never be caught in another team's jersey ever,
because he's a Raiders fan. That's how it works. You
don't represent other teams if you don't support them, you
bird brain. I would never wear clothes of another team.
Speaker 4 (25:10):
But if my kid, if I'm coaching my kid's little
league team, and hey, Rich this year, you've been a sign.
You guys are the Phillies. I'm not gonna say I'm
a Mets fan. No can do little League.
Speaker 6 (25:21):
I mean that would be I would you know what
I would do you know those TV commercials where they
can't pay for the team licensing.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
It's just a generic, generic jersey. Oh you get a
man like the Halloween Show. Yeah, that generic baseball player.
Speaker 6 (25:36):
That's what I would wear to coach my kid.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
Giants.
Speaker 6 (25:40):
No, I'm a Dodgers diehard. I'm not wearing a Giant's jersey.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
I say, I will pay.
Speaker 4 (25:45):
I would find I'm gonna go to Danny's hometown, and
when Little Koa starts playing Little League, I'm gonna donate
to the league as long as they assign Danny's kid
to the Giants.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
So he's saying he would wear like generic black and orange,
and you would not wear I dare wish that on.
Now here's it. You know, Rich does make a good point.
You say one thing, but you'll do anything for your kids.
So I do get that. Like we all said, and
I'll quote us when we weren't parents, we were like,
I'll never have a kid's toys all over my living room.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Yeah right.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
You know Rich has a ball pit in his living room. Now, yeah,
straight up ball pit. He's chuck e cheese in his
living room, right, I said to Cavino, I remember one time,
this is a classic Cavino rich story. We went out
for hibachi when Covino's daughter was really young and she
forgot her little Hello Kitty chopsticks at home that Cavino
(26:41):
had got her. And I lived around the block. That's
a big part of the story. Yeah, I lived in
walking distance.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
He lived a couple like a block away, and he's like, yeah,
I gotta go back. And I remember being like, yeah,
let her just deal. And when you're a parent, you're like, no, no,
you don't get it.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
She's three years old and she wants her little kid chopsticks.
I forgot them. They weren't parents yet, so they made
me feel like I was the biggest weenie dad of
all time. I'm like, I'm just trying to prevent the
melt down here. That's all just being dad, trying to
be a nice guy. So my point is, you say
one thing, but you do another, and I do feel
you on that. So my instinct here would be like,
(27:18):
no way am I wearing Red Sox skier from a
Yankees fan if my kid played for the Red Sox.
But if you were the coach and you're trying to
lead by example, and yeah, you probably would do those
things rich.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
That's the truth.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
But when Yadai er Amalina is doing it, it definitely
hits harder than when Stepdad Gary's doing it. Yadaire Molina
is Cardinals all the way. That's weird. That is that
makes this story more impactful. That's what makes it a headline.
We're not talking about Frank, who's been a lifelong Braves fan.
(27:53):
We're talking about Yadier Molina, who's synonymous with the Cardinals.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
You keeping that emphasize on that third syllable, huh.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
That's how Latinos do it. Bro, don't be jealous. Mind
your business, Cardinals.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
Shout out to Mancy Pauls of Fox Sports Radio. She
also says athlete, So let me ask you this. If
you have a little uh. She also says peber Wolves,
deember Wolves, Wolves, deember Wolves, Deeber.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Let's say you have a little son one day instead
of Julio, what if you name them Junio?
Speaker 2 (28:27):
I was thinking Gaston. I think that's like a strong name.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
Yeah, so little guest On Covino is playing for the
uh Sherman Oaks Red Sox right now, not having a son,
I'm saying, no way, no, how am I wearing a
Red Sox hat.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
But if the to me that's like to me has.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
A Derek Jeter wearing a Red Sox hat, I'm not Jeter,
but in my mind I am. I mean Derek Jeter
wart Florida Marlin stuff.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
I never saw him wearing it.
Speaker 4 (28:57):
Now you're telling me that if your son is in
t ball, little kid, and he's all excited about his
little new.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Jersey, his jersey. I got my first baseball jersey.
Speaker 4 (29:07):
Yo, he's rocking a little League Red Sox, you're not
gonna wear the matching hat.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
Would definitely be it. Am I the coach or am
I just a fan father? Either? Either way, I coach coach.
I'm getting a little too old to be like coaching,
so I don't know. I don't want to be the
old guy. I don't know, dude, in my mind now, no,
I wouldn't do it in my mind now, I'm insane.
(29:37):
In my mind now, I couldn't do what Yadi or
Molina is doing. And he was a cardinal. I don't
get it. But you understand how ridiculous you do. Realize
how ridiculous you sound, right, But I'm not.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
The only one.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
And hey, Danny, G's sitting right across from me. He
wouldn't do it either, at least he says he wouldn't. Again,
I also admit in the same breath that we all
say things and do something different because we love our kids.
I just can't see hey, and who knows, maybe I've
had it up to here with the Yankees by the
time my kids playing travel ball. I'm not saying I
(30:12):
would ever switch alliance. I'm just saying maybe I would
bend my own personal rules because I'm fed up with them.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Who knows. So let's let's break it down psychologically.
Speaker 4 (30:21):
What what do you think Like You're gonna put on
a Red Sox happy for your kids. I'll tell you
Aaron Judge is gonna see you, and he's gonna be like,
I'm disappointed.
Speaker 3 (30:29):
Yeah, here's the disconnect between you and I here, I
feel like that defines me. When you root for losers
like the Mets, it doesn't define you in the same way.
Meaning I got a lot of my confidence and a
lot of my swag and a lot of that strutt
my step from the dynasty, from when the Yankees were winning,
from that come up of the Core four. I feel
(30:49):
like I was a part of that, I'd be disloyal
to rock anything else that made me who I was
in a lot of ways. That built my character. That's
my lifestyle, that's my identity. I'm not saying that's my
own the identity God on the team. Yeah, but psychologically
you are when you're a real fan. And if you
can't get behind that thought as a lifelong Mets guy
(31:09):
and forty nine Ers guy, then I question your passion,
and I think you're better my passion.
Speaker 4 (31:14):
Question my passion when I've been to every World Series
or or Super Bowl my teams have been to, And.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
How can you question where I'm coming from?
Speaker 4 (31:21):
Because it's something as stupid as you saying that if
your kid was on the little league Red Sox, you
wouldn't wear the hat.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
I like, moron, Okay, I get it.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
I can't. You can't be the only guy the reason are.
Let me prove to you that I'm not the only guy.
This is a big story and a headline because everybody.
Most people see it the way I do.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
No, most people are like, oh, it's weird to see
YACHTI and oh the Cardinals fan because they think that
that's nuts.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
Because most fans have an issue doing that. Let me
tell you.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
I brought up my brother in law and how he's
rocking Red Sox gear and whatever team his kid's on.
He's not as passes as I am. I'm there at
the game watching the Yankees. He doesn't even know they're playing.
There's different levels to this. He's not as passionate. He's
the guy asking me, oh, they played today, Yeah, they
(32:12):
played today. I thought you were a fan. He's not
as big of a fan, That's what it says. Yeah,
but it just sounds it sounds wildly crazy. It sounds
wildly and I could be the biggest hypocrite in the
world rich, but I'm not there yet. And I'm and
Danny G's with me. A lot of people are with me.
And that's why people can't seem to wrap their head
(32:32):
around this yachty here. Yeah, all right, we'll go to
the phones and your thoughts on this is it crazy
behavior again? And you even said people at the barbershop
won't wear the clippers cape, they'd rather get hair all
over them.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
They're getting a hair cut.
Speaker 4 (32:51):
Those people have damn near lost their mind again, that
no one that cares more about their favorite teams than me.
I love the teams I root for. But if you
told me, hey, Rich, you know you get to get
your hair cut and uh, you know your barber's using
(33:13):
a braves cape?
Speaker 3 (33:15):
Am I gonna be like, I'm a Mets fan. I can't.
I can't while you're cutting my hair. If I off
of me, I'd ask them straight up if they had
another option, I really would.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
There's nothing rude about that.
Speaker 3 (33:25):
There's something more rude about them assigning me an alliance,
like you'll get out of here.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
I'm not wearing that. Yeah, something else.
Speaker 6 (33:32):
You know, he's got to have like a neutral, regular
black cape the barbershop.
Speaker 3 (33:36):
I'm pushing your weak ass team on me again, because
it represents. Here's what it represents, Bozo. It represents who
you are, where you're from, right Hey man, I'm from
New Jersey. I grew up going to New York City
watching WPIX. East Coast. That's who I am. You know,
(33:56):
that's where I'm from. I'm from the East Coast lineage
of family members that rooted for the Yankees. You think
I'm just gonna just abandon that. It's called pride and character.
But don't say thing you to abandon it. Your kids
on a little league team, or your barber's using a cape,
or they're not who you are. Just it's why you
(34:20):
sound crazy to me. But hey, you know what, or
you sound like a wishy washy guy who's just that's
just willing to wear anything.
Speaker 2 (34:27):
I mean, there's two ways to look at it.
Speaker 3 (34:29):
For for as crazy as I sound, and you're calling
me crazy, I think you sound wishy washy. Wishy does
nothing wishy washing because you'll just wear anything wishy washy
would be like I I go back and forth on it.
I don't I think you are. You don't wear anything
that's going back and forth. You're a Mets fan, but
you'll wear anything wishy washy. Joel, you're you're a big
(34:54):
Lions fan. Right, There's no way Joel would everywhere I
need y'all other than Detroit. If Joel's kid playing popwater
football and they were on the Packers with Joel, be like,
I'm not no, like I don't know, no.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
For real, I'm not wearing any Packer colors.
Speaker 4 (35:09):
So is he crazy? You guys all need to bang
your heads together.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
Why who's crazy? Rich likes to he likes to gaslight people.
It's really like like, what are you a twenty year
old girld using that word? Because you do that all
the time. This isn't the only time I'm on the
air with you. This is what you do. Man, Cavino,
You're a crazy one. No dude, I'm just like strong
in my convictions. No man, I'm just a fan. Noah, Man,
(35:36):
I stay true to what I believe in. I'm not
rocking that because you're telling me to. Because my kid's
playing for the red side.
Speaker 2 (35:43):
Get out of here. So thoughts on this.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
We're gonna take your calls on the other side, which
she watched your opposing team because your kid played on the.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
Little league team.
Speaker 3 (35:53):
Give us a calls based on the Yaddi air Molina
story eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox, we got
more Cavino and Rich the dance in for Dan Patrick
Live the Mercedes Benz Studios.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio in the iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
Wapp It's the Dan Slam Welcome Back.
Speaker 3 (36:16):
Usually we do the Dan Patrick Patrick, but it's a
holiday week we said, hell, let's do them all. The
Dan Slam in for Dan Patrick Is Coveno and Rich,
Steve Covino, Rich Davis, Danny g We got Joel and
Mark and spot on the videos at Covino and.
Speaker 2 (36:33):
Rich on social media.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
Appreciate you guys checking out our podcast search Covino and Rich.
We gotta talk Aaron Rodgers and play some Iron Mike
trivia next hour. But we got to wrap up a
lot of phone calls about Yadier Molina, who's again. He's
a cardinal, lifelong cardinal, nineteen years with the Cardinals. You
picture him, you picture him in the Cardinals uniform. He's
wearing all Cubs, but like all out Cubs gear for
(36:56):
his kids travel baseball team.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
And there's a nice way to look at that too.
I get it.
Speaker 3 (37:01):
Look, man, he's Cardinals, but he's Cubs all the way
because he loves his kids.
Speaker 2 (37:06):
And I also important his kid or the Cardinals.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
That's one point I would say, kid, well you would
do anything for your kids. I get that too, But
it comes down to, well would you rock another team's gear,
especially for your kids? And I'm telling you I don't
have a son yet, but when I do have little
Guesston someday, As I said, and I'm still in the
(37:29):
game now what I do.
Speaker 2 (37:31):
I would have a problem with it. I would. I
would think twice about it, and I thought about why. Rich.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
I was in the bathroom and I had an ep Fanny,
and I was like, I'll tell you why, because I
feel like a fraud in a phony, and some people
are just better at feeling that way.
Speaker 2 (37:45):
I don't like it.
Speaker 3 (37:46):
I would feel like a fraud and a phony wearing
the jersey of another team. It's like wearing a band
that I don't listen to his shirt. I feel like
a fraud. I don't play that game. I don't live
that life. I don't do that. You take yourself way
too Seriouserger, I'm not an only guy. Even Mike who
runs this place in the hallway, he said he could
(38:07):
Mike who runs this place over there. Mike never heard
of them, Big Mike the bear, you know him, Doctor Love.
He said he would never do this either, but he
has two exceptions. Two exceptions. By the way, the fact
that Mike agrees with you makes me feel even better
about disagreeing with you.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
No, because we're not phony baloney's. I love how you
have more allegiance to the yank to Aaron Judge over
your own child.
Speaker 3 (38:32):
It's not that it's not it's what it sounds like. Really, No,
it's I I this is where I'm from, this is
who my family rooted for, who I root for, who
sort of defined who I was for most of my life.
He goes that there's two exceptions. He said that he
(38:53):
would wear the gear, but only.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
To the game. Only to the game, right.
Speaker 3 (38:57):
He would never like wear it anywhere else once he
he's out of them in the field, changing the car
on the way to the pizza party, he said, But
he would never ever wear ever San Francisco Giants gear
ever matter what.
Speaker 6 (39:10):
This is more about wearing a rival teams colors, because
it was like if it was like the Milwaukee Brewers
or something like that, rich, I would do that for
my son, the San Francisco Giants. No, I'm not wearing
those orange put colors. And it's not even about the
hatreds about like you guys that's over one hundred years old.
(39:32):
You say, get over yourself. You just don't get it.
You're just you don't get it. You don't stand for anything.
Let's go to the phone. You can't say blanket dumb crap.
Speaker 3 (39:42):
Like that. And when you don't stand for something, don't
for any I would wear would you would prove it
every day with your foot flops. You wear pajama pants
to work. You should wear that phrase? What if you
if you don't stand for something? I invented it. I think, yeah,
you guys, if you guys ever heard this one? If
(40:02):
you don't stand for something, you fall for everything. He
just says, nonsense. I have wore flip flops in years.
He like, that's funny.
Speaker 2 (40:09):
I get this guy, pull him up right now.
Speaker 4 (40:11):
Every time this guy says something I got, ninety percent
of it is garbage.
Speaker 3 (40:15):
Because I tell you, whar flip flops? I think pictures
that send them to all my other friends and make
fun of you. Let me, well, yes, what I gold
patch Scott speeze out with your soul patch over there?
Speaker 2 (40:25):
I should take a picture of that and said that
everyone needs.
Speaker 3 (40:27):
To do that.
Speaker 2 (40:27):
Where's the soul patch? We find it? What's on your
chin right now?
Speaker 3 (40:30):
The same way you're just same facial hair that's always
on my face. What's on your what's under your beard?
That's what I want to know. Fortunately, rock for five.
Let's go to the phones eight seven seven ninety nine,
O Fox, we got too many people on hold here
getting ready to disagree with Rich. I guarantee it, because
you're talking to sports fans. I guarantee it. I give
(40:51):
the George Forman guarantee.
Speaker 4 (40:53):
Maybe people need a root awakening that if you have
a problem wearing I don't know, a San Francisco Giants
Little League shirt, then maybe you're the problem.
Speaker 3 (41:02):
I'm not saying I wouldn't do it, but I would
have a problem with it. Let's start with Texas. That's
where Rich is right now, Jerome and Texas. You're on
the Cavino and Rich show.
Speaker 10 (41:13):
Hey, how's you going.
Speaker 5 (41:14):
Uh?
Speaker 10 (41:14):
My son's little league team is called the Bananas, So
I don't know what their rival team would be. But
I think as long as you show up to your
kids games, it doesn't matter what you wear, they'll remember
that you're there. So if you don't want to wear
the rival teams, just don't just show up to your
kids games.
Speaker 3 (41:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (41:34):
But I'm saying if you're coaching your kid, right, sweet answer.
Speaker 3 (41:38):
Yeah, But if you're coaching your kid.
Speaker 2 (41:40):
Rich would be the pop Banana because he's the best. Well,
you know what I would I would rock a whole
yellow alphabet.
Speaker 3 (41:46):
And Davis, I mean Richard Boys actually does have a
banana suit. I'm sure he does.
Speaker 2 (41:51):
You were wondering, Uh, we got James in Virginia.
Speaker 3 (41:55):
No, no, no, hold on, we won't have time.
Speaker 2 (41:57):
Okay, Hey, James, Patrick, John, everybody tight.
Speaker 3 (42:00):
Hold on.
Speaker 2 (42:00):
I agree with rich Thanks James, thank you, thank you.
Oh Hayden, tank tight, everybody hang tight.
Speaker 3 (42:08):
It's just ridiculous. Rich loves to make me feel like
I'm the only guy. I can't wait to hear the
rest of the phone calls. We do it next, live
from Mercedes Benz Studios.

Speaker 3 (01:05):
Light them up. Things your grandparents will be shocked by
based on the money we're talking about today again, Jason Tatum.
The super Max deal, five year, three hundred and fourteen million,
largest in NBA history, And you just heard in our updates,
or maybe it didn't, depending on where you are. Donovan
Mitchell got one fifty for three years, so again people
(01:27):
getting paid. He signed an extension with the cash one hundred.
Speaker 4 (01:31):
These are lottery numbers. These are not like, oh, it's
a nice salary. These are like these guys are winning
the Mega million power Ball every year. It's it's insane.
But you know what the revenue is there. So who
do you rather have the money? The players or the
rich ass owners. I'll go players every time. So you know,
if the NBA is worth billions and billions and billions.
Speaker 3 (01:51):
And billions, paid that money because they have proven there
they're worth it. You know, they're bringing me in that
type of value. So let's wrap it up with your
phone calls. Things your grandparents would be most shocked to hear.
Doesn't have to be sports related. It just could be
life related. But you know what, when it comes to sports,
I had another one. Rich because you say I'm an
(02:12):
old guy because I still watch highlights on TV. Yeah,
that's you know, they'd be like, what do you mean, Like, hey,
they're looking for the newspaper, like nope. And you don't
even watch the games half the time.
Speaker 4 (02:24):
You just wear the timebox score, Sonny, exactly, the boxingars
on your phone. Grandpa, you know a great example. Last night,
I'm at the gym and I'm watching J. D. Martinez
at an extra inning bomb for the Mets, and I'm
sitting there, you know, on the gym doing bench press
with my phone on my belly, watching the Mets game.
So the fact that you could watch sports anywhere with
(02:45):
your parents.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Not even your grandmar you back in the nineties, you'd
wait all night if you missed your game. You'd wait
all night just to see the highlights, to see what happened.
Speaker 4 (02:55):
You know, Danny I said, West coast people never got
this thought, which was on the East coast, the late
games wouldn't it be be They wouldn't to be printed
in the paper like you'd see the morning daily news
would be like, oh, Yankees won, Red Sox lost, Mets one.
Wait a minute, Dodgers's It would say late game, yeah exactly,
(03:18):
And the next day you would just get a double
buck score like I wonder if they lost their one.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
I guess I'll find out tomorrow. All right, So what
would they be most shocked to hear? Maybe it's a
rule in sports, maybe something in life. We gave you
our top answers, wrapping it up with I want to
see if JP's.
Speaker 2 (03:33):
Back, Dan, Yeah, I think he's back in Michigan. JP
in Michigan.
Speaker 5 (03:37):
Great show, great topic, guys, Hey, who was the first
million dollar athlete? And on four major sports?
Speaker 2 (03:46):
We started off by saying, Dave Winfield, is that you got?
Speaker 3 (03:48):
Was it? No? One? Ryan? He No.
Speaker 5 (03:50):
I was in this press conference back in the eighties
in Flint, Michigan, and it was Bobby Hall was the
first million dollar athlete in the four major sports. And
Gordie Howell said, I'm mister Hockey, who in the hell
do you think you are? And that was when I
believe he was with Hartford.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Yeah, Winfield was the first in baseball in baseball? Okay,
So oh wow, great one man, Thank you JP. So
what else would shock you the most? Or shock your grandparents?
I should say, JP? Yes, what would shock your grandparents
the most?
Speaker 5 (04:27):
Uh? Well, my grandfather was a beekeeper and so the
price of honey today and he was a beekeeper most
all of his life, and he was basically giving it
away for pennies back back in the day. And he
would be shocked the same thing he was a farmer,
the price of the price of crops, the price of
(04:49):
paying for this stuff for your fields and fertilizers and stuff.
He did it most all of his life, and it's
just where money is today.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
That's a great call, man, thank you.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
He'd be shocked that killer be Bobby Bonie is still
getting paid every year.
Speaker 6 (05:05):
Yeah, it's like fifteen dollars for a little thing of
honey at the grocery store.
Speaker 2 (05:08):
Nah, yeah, insane.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Yeah, the uh.
Speaker 4 (05:11):
I was thinking more about how we even consume sports, Cavino,
like the simple fact that you wouldn't even get to
see the out of town teams unless it was like
the game of the week.
Speaker 3 (05:21):
Like maybe your grandparents would be.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
Just shocked by every Sunday Well you have Sunday ticket
and they're going back and forth on the red zone
every single game. They'd be like, what's going on here?
So there's just been a lot of changes in sports.
I think finances definitely one of the biggest ones. And
also maybe you know if they were a hard nosed,
old type of guy.
Speaker 3 (05:38):
Grand You know, your grandfather rich.
Speaker 4 (05:40):
He might be fascinated by the idea that, you know,
the NFL, like late hits and how soft hal changes.
Speaker 3 (05:47):
Yeah, your grandpappy, old school New York guy Rich. How
do you feel about a condensed game on like the
MLB app? You know you have, like the recap condemned
game Loveda's That's how my dad consumed.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
Really, you think you let every day? This is fantastic.
Speaker 6 (06:03):
Oh you just mentioned an app. Yeah, my grandfather had
a bookie. He would be shocked that you could gamble
on your phone.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Oh with draftings, Oh they would Yeah, they would have
been done for it.
Speaker 2 (06:15):
Now hold on, yeah, Grandpa, use our code see our show.
Legally I could gamble and smoke weed.
Speaker 3 (06:22):
Yo.
Speaker 2 (06:22):
Who knows what our grandparents have been up to.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
Wait a second, Yeah, and there's trans athletes everywhere, Grandpa,
Well that's amazing.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
I got some news for you.
Speaker 3 (06:32):
I'm a woman. What what the hell?
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Who knows what.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
Our grandparents would have been down with though? Right though?
Holy so we say they'd be shocked by these things.
They may be excited about these things. Hey, Josh and
Philly you're on the show.
Speaker 7 (06:47):
Good morning, Camino and Rich How are.
Speaker 2 (06:49):
You, good morning man, that's up, bro.
Speaker 7 (06:51):
I just before I talk about my grandfather, I just
wanted to say, I like, when you guys take over
for the Dan Patrick Show, I've actually got to know
you and listen to your show now because of that.
Speaker 3 (07:00):
Yeah, it means a lot. And that's a lot, brother,
part of the reason why we do it, man. It's look,
it's an honor when I ask us, but we also
want to talk to some new people and you know,
get to know you a little bit.
Speaker 7 (07:11):
Yeah, yeah, okay, So why I called for my grandfather.
He was a huge boxing fan and he actually died
a couple of days before Manipaciao and Foyd Madeweather fought,
and he hated freyd. Made Weather because he said that's
what was wrong with boxing. But when I was younger,
I think boxing pay per views were like twenty twenty
five dollars, and if he was alive today to see
(07:33):
that it's like over one hundred dollars to watch like
Tyson Fury fight. I don't know. I think he would
just fall over again.
Speaker 3 (07:39):
Yeah, without doubt, man, we're big fight fans as well.
And sometimes we're shocked. We're like seventy five bucks for
people like they're not even household names. I know him
because I'm a fight fan. I can't even imagine what
your grandfather would think. And we're wrapping it up with
Mo and Arizona.
Speaker 8 (07:57):
What up Mo morning, doing good job showing them for
Dan Man, thank you, I got I gotta go with
his little off sports topic. But uh, for one, my
grandparents would be surprised one that they actually put water
in a bottle and then let alone the price of
bottle exactly. Yeah, we used to drink water than water hose.
Speaker 7 (08:17):
When I was a kid.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
So yeah, shout out to the host, shout out to
all the hosts. Yeah, I kept us high Dome. I drove.
You know, we were on a family road trip.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
And that's a hitch of the most because you can
go to the supermarket and you feel like you got
a deal becaust it's like, you know, five bucks or
a case of water. When you when you go to
like a truck stopp or a gas station and you
buy a bottle of water and it's like four seventy
nine or something. That that grinds my gears. That gets
my goat that that would get your grandparents super fired up.
Speaker 3 (08:50):
But I think we covered it all.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
Could you know the things that would get your grandparents
super confused?
Speaker 2 (08:56):
To be honest, you know your grandparents just to move on.
Speaker 3 (08:59):
They he's so shocked to see the weenial generation, like
the younger kids with all the the broccoli head hairdooes
and they want to a bunch of package. There's a
bunch of old packers outside. No, those are just teenage
boys dancing funny outside. Grandpa, what are they saying. They're
saying skibbity ohio riz. That means, uh, they think you're
(09:21):
toilet water, Grandpa.
Speaker 4 (09:23):
Some some kid down at the at the drug store
just called me the wrizzler and he had funny hair.
Speaker 2 (09:30):
Tell you, but you know what I see.
Speaker 3 (09:33):
I don't want to disagree with you because I want
to move on. But our grandparents would would not be shocked.
And I'll tell you why. They had buzz cuts. They
had buzz cuts. They wore disco shirts of the seventies.
They raised parent did not have disco shirts. They did
buzz cuts. What are you talking about your grandparents? Your
dad was in the disco you Goonberger you're not your grandma.
Speaker 4 (09:56):
Grandfather woar, he wasn't my grandfather, My grandfather wo or
like disco seventies shirts into the eighties because he just
didn't go shopping.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Well that I would say your grandfather's the exception, because
that's your dad's generation.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
But they saw their kids be hippies.
Speaker 4 (10:12):
They saw their grandkids have like lines in their hair
and mullets in the eighties, So I don't think they'd
be shocked by alpaca.
Speaker 3 (10:18):
Kid hair in the two thousand.
Speaker 2 (10:20):
I think they would. I'd be like, oh, there's a
bunch of alpacas out here. He's funny.
Speaker 3 (10:23):
What's going on these funny looking kids? Why are they
wearing pajama pants and crocs? Anyway, moving on, gotta talk
about you know parents.
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Your grandparents saw your Zeke Cavalci's were awesome in the
in the nineties.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
You better believe, because at least I looked presentable and
neat and groomed. These kids today jump out of bed
and put on rubber shoes like we're living real life idiocracy.
Way can I show this a new movie? Yeah, Grandpa,
that's real life now.
Speaker 4 (10:49):
Yeah, But your grandparents thought you wearing sneakers everywhere was
so weird because they wore shoes.
Speaker 3 (10:54):
I looked nice and neat and I comb my hair.
So anyway, we talked about travel baseball before and we
did mention that, man, a grandparent would be so perplexed
as to how expensive it is to just have your
kid join a travel sport. Now I'm not at that state.
(11:15):
My daughter is getting into cheerleading things like that, have
a teenage daughter. But you know, we hear from friends
all the time that travel sports is just so beyond
expensive and the commitment, the time commitment, especially if you
have multiple kids and you're going from this game to
that game. That is putting so much pressure on these
families to even keep up with the Kardashians, to keep
(11:38):
up with the Joneses, to keep up with these other families.
But you don't want your kid to fall behind. So
you're paying for coaches, You're paying for hitting coaches and
specific specialized fielding coaches, and it costs a lot of
money just to get them in these leagues and to
travel that it's just really in some ways as awesome
as it is tearing families apart.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
That's suit it's taxing.
Speaker 4 (12:01):
Yeah, it's taxing on a family's time and resources and everything.
You had to tie back to the last conversation, I
think previous generations would be shocked how we prioritize those
things like oh, we're not you're not going away, or
we're not going on that family trip.
Speaker 3 (12:14):
Oh yeah, Johnny's got his hockey tournament. Like do you.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
Remember when you were a kid like a there would
be kids even in the eighties and nineties that would
miss a game because it's like, yeah, family vacation. Now
it's like, can't go on family vacation. Little Gregor's has
a soccer tournament.
Speaker 3 (12:29):
Like people are our priorities are different. And again I
get where it comes from. You don't want your kid
to fall behind because another family's kid has that sort
of money to get him those coaches or put him
into that camp. Dude, But growing up, my parents, our
parents didn't throw us in these camps because that's what
rich kids did for the most part. Right, you, you
may have dodged a bullet with the fact that your
(12:51):
daughter is more too arts than sports. Like your daughter,
You're done. You the fact that acting class is cheat bros.
Speaker 4 (12:58):
No, no, no, I'm saying traveling commitments, money all that time.
Speaker 2 (13:02):
But I'm saying everything's expensive like that.
Speaker 4 (13:04):
No, of course, I'm just saying, like the idea of
you being like, hey, dude, I'm gonna be in Idaho
for the weekend. Why oh my kid's soccer tournament. Then
I got to go to Oregon, like I.
Speaker 3 (13:13):
Have friends they even take At least that would have
been helpful and teaching her how to feel the ground ball.
I can't teach her how to act out a scene.
I know nothing about the acting world.
Speaker 4 (13:22):
No, But I'm saying, if you like our buddies, our
buddy Mauser who lives in Cincinnati. Every week, that guy's
group texting us like he's in a different city because
his kid plays travel hockey. I have a buddy who's kids,
like every week he's in a different state. And I'm like, dude,
do you have a life or do you just are
you just a soccer dad?
Speaker 3 (13:40):
Though, Now, if you're living that life, I'm sure you
know someone who does. If not, there's a story about
Yadier Molina. Now, certain people are synonymous with certain brands
and certain things. When I see Yadier Molina, what do
you picture him in? How do you picture him. Who
(14:03):
does he represent? I picture his tattoos, and I picture
him killing the Mets every time they played. I hate
him as a player, respect him so greatly as an athlete,
but Yadier Molina destroyed the Mets for a better part
of two decades every time there was a big game.
Speaker 2 (14:18):
What team do you picture him on?
Speaker 4 (14:21):
I mean one team and one team only exactly, Saint
Louis Cardinals. You picture him in red.
Speaker 3 (14:26):
I think that's the big part of the story here. Well,
of course it is, so Yeah, he has great tattoos.
He comes from a strong lineage of great baseball players. Yati,
Puerto Rican superstar, played what nineteen years with the Saint
Louis Cardinals, and he's in the news because of his
(14:49):
son's his kids travel baseball team.
Speaker 4 (14:52):
Yeah, this story, and by the way, Yati one of
those players, one of those few players that.
Speaker 3 (14:59):
For the this generation.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
For a guy to play on one team his whole
career is far and few between. That's just not how
it is anymore. Free agency almost in you know, enables
people to just go after the money more than ever.
This guy is one, two, three, four, five, six, hibit
like over a ten time All Star unbelievable life in
(15:21):
Saint Louis.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
But here's the funny part. This story sort of catching steam.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Now his son plays travel ball and.
Speaker 3 (15:30):
What do you believe it?
Speaker 4 (15:31):
What team do you think his sons on and travel ball?
I remember when you were a kid. When I was
a kid, I was on in Little League.
Speaker 3 (15:37):
I was on the Giants and the Brewers and the Mets,
and then I was on a travel team where the
Indians back then. Like, you remember the teams you were on? Right?
Of course, No, who doesn't. There's some people that don't.
And you know what I say immediately, Oh, so you
don't remember.
Speaker 2 (15:52):
You must have sucked because you erased those memories. You
must be shock.
Speaker 3 (15:57):
You must be the worst Little League kid if you
don't remember the team were on. Well, dude, you may
say that, but I'm shocked because sometimes I'll talk.
Speaker 2 (16:03):
To it, like, you know, then they have bad memories.
Speaker 4 (16:07):
I will talk to people that are thirty south and
forty something and they don't know their school teachers' names,
they don't know their coaches names.
Speaker 3 (16:13):
I'm like that because they're both remember they're morons. And
you know what, that's my hot take of the day.
If you don't remember what little league team you played for.
You were the worst, You were the worst player on
the team. There's no because that's how you're protecting your
childhood memories. You erased it from your memories. Who remember
(16:33):
the team that they were on? Give me a break.
I'll back up Covino.
Speaker 4 (16:38):
If you don't remember the little league teams were on,
you erased it mentally because you erased your suck.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
And if you forgot your teachers, you're just an idiot.
And I get it. That is a long time ago,
and I'm starting to forget myself, but I remember most
of them. Look, I get it. I get that one
that was the greatest student.
Speaker 4 (16:55):
The fun of this story is that Yadi Air Molina
sittingymous with the red and white the Cardinals All Star
Hall of Fame guy. His son plays for the travel
Cubs and Yachdi Amerlina's coaching, so he's wearing a Cubs
uniform and social media and Cardinals fans are losing their mind.
(17:19):
Here's some of the quotes. A cursed image. This is
a sin I just threw up in my mouth. Fans
are losing their mind seeing Yachty in a Cubs uni.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
You know what.
Speaker 3 (17:31):
Again, NL rivals the Cubs, different colors. Doesn't look right,
but he's like all out deck now in Cubs gear,
Cubs bad. It looks like he's playing for a real
major league Cubs team.
Speaker 6 (17:44):
It's crazy, it's blasphemy. This is like when Shaq had
the Celtics green on Oh.
Speaker 2 (17:50):
So uh based on the Major League.
Speaker 4 (17:52):
Two major examples, Like you said, Shack in the Green
and Cavino. I always thought of Johnny Damon Yankees Red Sox.
But do you think think most people would have a
problem doing this themselves?
Speaker 2 (18:06):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (18:06):
And I notice it too, Like I notice it and
I get it. You gotta support your kid. I see
my brother in law wearing like Red Sox gear.
Speaker 2 (18:15):
And like, dude, we're Yankees fans. How could you.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
You know, Budd, he's supporting his kid. Some people don't
care as much.
Speaker 2 (18:22):
I think. See it's weird, man, That's what makes his story.
Speaker 3 (18:27):
Extra special rich, because I'm like, they're not real fans
like me. Meanwhile, this dude played for the Cardinals, so
clearly he devoted his whole life to baseball. He cares
more than I do, and he's willing to.
Speaker 4 (18:39):
Wear the cups n for well, with that said, your thoughts,
Let's say your kid was on a team and they
were named after the team you hated most, or your
son was God willing, your kid got drafted into the
BIGS team.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
That's a big difference, right, Yeah, there's a bit. There's
a big difference.
Speaker 4 (18:59):
But we'll take your feedback next right here, Covino rich
In for Dan Patrick.

We had Pooka Nakoula this week. We played was it
Hawk Tua or Nikula with Pooka Nkula And that's on
(20:56):
Fox Sports Radio's YouTube page.
Speaker 2 (20:57):
Every week.
Speaker 3 (20:58):
We do over promised, so look that up and thanks
again for hanging out. We got prizes to give away
Iron Mike trivia later on. But tucking Yadier Molina, Now, look,
he's doing a great thing. There's no question about that.
He's coaching his kids his travel baseball. But the controversy
here is the fact that the guy you know as
(21:23):
a cardinal nineteen years on one team. That's also a
big part of the story. It's very rare nowadays, nineteen
years with one team is wearing full on Cubs gear
because his kids play for the Cubs. Now, by the way,
on a side tangent, we explained that it does make sense.
(21:46):
It makes sense that he has kids playing on travel
team because he's rich. But now it's the norm, and
that's what puts regular families in a really tough situation.
I gotta keep up with the every kid has special
coaches and camps and are playing travel ball, and it's
(22:07):
putting families in a really tight spot just to keep up.
But based on this, it's got social media going wild,
like how could Yadier Molina be wearing Cubs gear? And
like I said, it's not just Cubs gear, it's Cubs everything,
Cubs duffel bags full on, full on looks like.
Speaker 2 (22:27):
Major league gear. I mean, the thing is, if it
doesn't matter to.
Speaker 3 (22:30):
Him, Cubs, jackets, he's got that sort of silly.
Speaker 2 (22:33):
That it matters to us. You're absolutely right about that.
Speaker 3 (22:37):
I'm shocked in fact that he's so freely not caring
because he represents the Cardinals, when guys like you and
I just fans, would might would maybe have a stronger
stance at this, which which kind of debunks our stance
a little bit. I mean, he's a he's a player,
not a fanatic, right, I mean, that's that's the thing,
(22:58):
and it is interesting.
Speaker 4 (22:59):
I go to my barber, Addie. He's a big Clippers fan.
No pun intended, but it's just funny. He's a barber
and likes the Clippers.
Speaker 3 (23:09):
He puts a Clippers cape on you when he cuts
your hair. He told me that he has clients that say,
don't put that crap on me. Do you have something else,
like there's Laker fans in LA that refuse to get
their haircut with a Clippers cake.
Speaker 6 (23:26):
Yeah, don't want to be cursed. I was gonna say
that's a Donald Sterling curse.
Speaker 3 (23:30):
Yeah, I don't want to be cursed. I came here
for a haircut, not for your hexing. Right now, I
get out of here. I read it, cursed head. I
get it.
Speaker 4 (23:40):
Your your brother will wear all different team gear because
he's like, yo, it looks good, Joe, And you're like, dude,
you're a Yankees fan. Why are you wearing a blue
Jay's hat. He's like, yeah, but it goes with my
blue sneakers.
Speaker 2 (23:50):
That's just weak.
Speaker 3 (23:51):
In my opinion, that's generational because you here's why, because
you could let's say you want a green hat. You
don't have to wear an athletics hat, you idiot. You
could buy a green Yankees hat nowadays. So it don't
give me that you needed that color hat. That's just
about his Would it be unloyal? About as unloyal as
you could be disloyal? This is disloyal as you could
(24:11):
be to your team.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
Back in the day. I get it.
Speaker 3 (24:14):
They didn't have as many options. Now you can get
your team in any color under the moon. So that
makes such sense to me.
Speaker 4 (24:21):
It is funny to think, though, that we're talking about
loyalty like it's a wife or a girlfriend.
Speaker 3 (24:26):
Noo, Like my kids it's a color of a team,
it's a way of life. And I think that you're
just not as loyal, You're not as much of a fan.
Even though Yadier Molina is breaking the rules here, he's
doing it for the love of his kids. If you're
doing it just because I don't know, I think it
says a lot about your character.
Speaker 4 (24:43):
I said to me, that's ridiculous saying that I'm less
of it, to say that I'm less of a fan.
Speaker 3 (24:48):
You know, half the time you're not watching it. I
was watching the Mets yesterday. That's your team. You weren't
even watching. You were flipping around in your flip flops.
Danny g would never be caught in another team's jersey ever,
because he's a Raiders fan. That's how it works. You
don't represent other teams if you don't support them, you
bird brain. I would never wear clothes of another team.
Speaker 4 (25:10):
But if my kid, if I'm coaching my kid's little
league team, and hey, Rich this year, you've been a sign.
You guys are the Phillies. I'm not gonna say I'm
a Mets fan. No can do little League.
Speaker 6 (25:21):
I mean that would be I would you know what
I would do you know those TV commercials where they
can't pay for the team licensing.
Speaker 3 (25:29):
It's just a generic, generic jersey. Oh you get a
man like the Halloween Show. Yeah, that generic baseball player.
Speaker 6 (25:36):
That's what I would wear to coach my kid.
Speaker 2 (25:40):
Giants.
Speaker 6 (25:40):
No, I'm a Dodgers diehard. I'm not wearing a Giant's jersey.
Speaker 2 (25:43):
I say, I will pay.
Speaker 4 (25:45):
I would find I'm gonna go to Danny's hometown, and
when Little Koa starts playing Little League, I'm gonna donate
to the league as long as they assign Danny's kid
to the Giants.
Speaker 3 (25:54):
So he's saying he would wear like generic black and orange,
and you would not wear I dare wish that on.
Now here's it. You know, Rich does make a good point.
You say one thing, but you'll do anything for your kids.
So I do get that. Like we all said, and
I'll quote us when we weren't parents, we were like,
I'll never have a kid's toys all over my living room.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Yeah right.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
You know Rich has a ball pit in his living room. Now, yeah,
straight up ball pit. He's chuck e cheese in his
living room, right, I said to Cavino, I remember one time,
this is a classic Cavino rich story. We went out
for hibachi when Covino's daughter was really young and she
forgot her little Hello Kitty chopsticks at home that Cavino
(26:41):
had got her. And I lived around the block. That's
a big part of the story. Yeah, I lived in
walking distance.
Speaker 4 (26:46):
He lived a couple like a block away, and he's like, yeah,
I gotta go back. And I remember being like, yeah,
let her just deal. And when you're a parent, you're like, no, no,
you don't get it.
Speaker 3 (26:55):
She's three years old and she wants her little kid chopsticks.
I forgot them. They weren't parents yet, so they made
me feel like I was the biggest weenie dad of
all time. I'm like, I'm just trying to prevent the
melt down here. That's all just being dad, trying to
be a nice guy. So my point is, you say
one thing, but you do another, and I do feel
you on that. So my instinct here would be like,
(27:18):
no way am I wearing Red Sox skier from a
Yankees fan if my kid played for the Red Sox.
But if you were the coach and you're trying to
lead by example, and yeah, you probably would do those
things rich.
Speaker 2 (27:32):
That's the truth.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
But when Yadai er Amalina is doing it, it definitely
hits harder than when Stepdad Gary's doing it. Yadaire Molina
is Cardinals all the way. That's weird. That is that
makes this story more impactful. That's what makes it a headline.
We're not talking about Frank, who's been a lifelong Braves fan.
(27:53):
We're talking about Yadier Molina, who's synonymous with the Cardinals.
Speaker 2 (27:58):
You keeping that emphasize on that third syllable, huh.
Speaker 3 (28:01):
That's how Latinos do it. Bro, don't be jealous. Mind
your business, Cardinals.
Speaker 2 (28:05):
That's right.
Speaker 3 (28:06):
Shout out to Mancy Pauls of Fox Sports Radio. She
also says athlete, So let me ask you this. If
you have a little uh. She also says peber Wolves,
deember Wolves, Wolves, deember Wolves, Deeber.
Speaker 4 (28:23):
Let's say you have a little son one day instead
of Julio, what if you name them Junio?
Speaker 2 (28:27):
I was thinking Gaston. I think that's like a strong name.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
Yeah, so little guest On Covino is playing for the
uh Sherman Oaks Red Sox right now, not having a son,
I'm saying, no way, no, how am I wearing a
Red Sox hat.
Speaker 2 (28:42):
But if the to me that's like to me has.
Speaker 3 (28:45):
A Derek Jeter wearing a Red Sox hat, I'm not Jeter,
but in my mind I am. I mean Derek Jeter
wart Florida Marlin stuff.
Speaker 2 (28:54):
I never saw him wearing it.
Speaker 4 (28:57):
Now you're telling me that if your son is in
t ball, little kid, and he's all excited about his
little new.
Speaker 2 (29:04):
Jersey, his jersey. I got my first baseball jersey.
Speaker 4 (29:07):
Yo, he's rocking a little League Red Sox, you're not
gonna wear the matching hat.
Speaker 3 (29:13):
Would definitely be it. Am I the coach or am
I just a fan father? Either? Either way, I coach coach.
I'm getting a little too old to be like coaching,
so I don't know. I don't want to be the
old guy. I don't know, dude, in my mind now, no,
I wouldn't do it in my mind now, I'm insane.
(29:37):
In my mind now, I couldn't do what Yadi or
Molina is doing. And he was a cardinal. I don't
get it. But you understand how ridiculous you do. Realize
how ridiculous you sound, right, But I'm not.
Speaker 2 (29:49):
The only one.
Speaker 3 (29:50):
And hey, Danny, G's sitting right across from me. He
wouldn't do it either, at least he says he wouldn't. Again,
I also admit in the same breath that we all
say things and do something different because we love our kids.
I just can't see hey, and who knows, maybe I've
had it up to here with the Yankees by the
time my kids playing travel ball. I'm not saying I
(30:12):
would ever switch alliance. I'm just saying maybe I would
bend my own personal rules because I'm fed up with them.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
Who knows. So let's let's break it down psychologically.
Speaker 4 (30:21):
What what do you think Like You're gonna put on
a Red Sox happy for your kids. I'll tell you
Aaron Judge is gonna see you, and he's gonna be like,
I'm disappointed.
Speaker 3 (30:29):
Yeah, here's the disconnect between you and I here, I
feel like that defines me. When you root for losers
like the Mets, it doesn't define you in the same way.
Meaning I got a lot of my confidence and a
lot of my swag and a lot of that strutt
my step from the dynasty, from when the Yankees were winning,
from that come up of the Core four. I feel
(30:49):
like I was a part of that, I'd be disloyal
to rock anything else that made me who I was
in a lot of ways. That built my character. That's
my lifestyle, that's my identity. I'm not saying that's my
own the identity God on the team. Yeah, but psychologically
you are when you're a real fan. And if you
can't get behind that thought as a lifelong Mets guy
(31:09):
and forty nine Ers guy, then I question your passion,
and I think you're better my passion.
Speaker 4 (31:14):
Question my passion when I've been to every World Series
or or Super Bowl my teams have been to, And.
Speaker 2 (31:19):
How can you question where I'm coming from?
Speaker 4 (31:21):
Because it's something as stupid as you saying that if
your kid was on the little league Red Sox, you
wouldn't wear the hat.
Speaker 2 (31:27):
I like, moron, Okay, I get it.
Speaker 3 (31:29):
I can't. You can't be the only guy the reason are.
Let me prove to you that I'm not the only guy.
This is a big story and a headline because everybody.
Most people see it the way I do.
Speaker 4 (31:42):
No, most people are like, oh, it's weird to see
YACHTI and oh the Cardinals fan because they think that
that's nuts.
Speaker 2 (31:48):
Because most fans have an issue doing that. Let me
tell you.
Speaker 3 (31:52):
I brought up my brother in law and how he's
rocking Red Sox gear and whatever team his kid's on.
He's not as passes as I am. I'm there at
the game watching the Yankees. He doesn't even know they're playing.
There's different levels to this. He's not as passionate. He's
the guy asking me, oh, they played today, Yeah, they
(32:12):
played today. I thought you were a fan. He's not
as big of a fan, That's what it says. Yeah,
but it just sounds it sounds wildly crazy. It sounds
wildly and I could be the biggest hypocrite in the
world rich, but I'm not there yet. And I'm and
Danny G's with me. A lot of people are with me.
And that's why people can't seem to wrap their head
(32:32):
around this yachty here. Yeah, all right, we'll go to
the phones and your thoughts on this is it crazy
behavior again? And you even said people at the barbershop
won't wear the clippers cape, they'd rather get hair all
over them.
Speaker 2 (32:49):
They're getting a hair cut.
Speaker 4 (32:51):
Those people have damn near lost their mind again, that
no one that cares more about their favorite teams than me.
I love the teams I root for. But if you
told me, hey, Rich, you know you get to get
your hair cut and uh, you know your barber's using
(33:13):
a braves cape?
Speaker 3 (33:15):
Am I gonna be like, I'm a Mets fan. I can't.
I can't while you're cutting my hair. If I off
of me, I'd ask them straight up if they had
another option, I really would.
Speaker 2 (33:24):
There's nothing rude about that.
Speaker 3 (33:25):
There's something more rude about them assigning me an alliance,
like you'll get out of here.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
I'm not wearing that. Yeah, something else.
Speaker 6 (33:32):
You know, he's got to have like a neutral, regular
black cape the barbershop.
Speaker 3 (33:36):
I'm pushing your weak ass team on me again, because
it represents. Here's what it represents, Bozo. It represents who
you are, where you're from, right Hey man, I'm from
New Jersey. I grew up going to New York City
watching WPIX. East Coast. That's who I am. You know,
(33:56):
that's where I'm from. I'm from the East Coast lineage
of family members that rooted for the Yankees. You think
I'm just gonna just abandon that. It's called pride and character.
But don't say thing you to abandon it. Your kids
on a little league team, or your barber's using a cape,
or they're not who you are. Just it's why you
(34:20):
sound crazy to me. But hey, you know what, or
you sound like a wishy washy guy who's just that's
just willing to wear anything.
Speaker 2 (34:27):
I mean, there's two ways to look at it.
Speaker 3 (34:29):
For for as crazy as I sound, and you're calling
me crazy, I think you sound wishy washy. Wishy does
nothing wishy washing because you'll just wear anything wishy washy
would be like I I go back and forth on it.
I don't I think you are. You don't wear anything
that's going back and forth. You're a Mets fan, but
you'll wear anything wishy washy. Joel, you're you're a big
(34:54):
Lions fan. Right, There's no way Joel would everywhere I
need y'all other than Detroit. If Joel's kid playing popwater
football and they were on the Packers with Joel, be like,
I'm not no, like I don't know, no.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
For real, I'm not wearing any Packer colors.
Speaker 4 (35:09):
So is he crazy? You guys all need to bang
your heads together.
Speaker 3 (35:13):
Why who's crazy? Rich likes to he likes to gaslight people.
It's really like like, what are you a twenty year
old girld using that word? Because you do that all
the time. This isn't the only time I'm on the
air with you. This is what you do. Man, Cavino,
You're a crazy one. No dude, I'm just like strong
in my convictions. No man, I'm just a fan. Noah, Man,
(35:36):
I stay true to what I believe in. I'm not
rocking that because you're telling me to. Because my kid's
playing for the red side.
Speaker 2 (35:43):
Get out of here. So thoughts on this.
Speaker 3 (35:45):
We're gonna take your calls on the other side, which
she watched your opposing team because your kid played on the.
Speaker 2 (35:52):
Little league team.
Speaker 3 (35:53):
Give us a calls based on the Yaddi air Molina
story eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox, we got
more Cavino and Rich the dance in for Dan Patrick
Live the Mercedes Benz Studios.
Speaker 1 (36:04):
Be sure to catch the live edition of The Dan
Patrick Show weekdays at nine am Eastern six am Pacific
on Fox Sports Radio in the iHeartRadio.
Speaker 2 (36:13):
Wapp It's the Dan Slam Welcome Back.
Speaker 3 (36:16):
Usually we do the Dan Patrick Patrick, but it's a
holiday week we said, hell, let's do them all. The
Dan Slam in for Dan Patrick Is Coveno and Rich,
Steve Covino, Rich Davis, Danny g We got Joel and
Mark and spot on the videos at Covino and.
Speaker 2 (36:33):
Rich on social media.
Speaker 3 (36:34):
Appreciate you guys checking out our podcast search Covino and Rich.
We gotta talk Aaron Rodgers and play some Iron Mike
trivia next hour. But we got to wrap up a
lot of phone calls about Yadier Molina, who's again. He's
a cardinal, lifelong cardinal, nineteen years with the Cardinals. You
picture him, you picture him in the Cardinals uniform. He's
wearing all Cubs, but like all out Cubs gear for
(36:56):
his kids travel baseball team.
Speaker 2 (36:58):
And there's a nice way to look at that too.
I get it.
Speaker 3 (37:01):
Look, man, he's Cardinals, but he's Cubs all the way
because he loves his kids.
Speaker 2 (37:06):
And I also important his kid or the Cardinals.
Speaker 3 (37:09):
That's one point I would say, kid, well you would
do anything for your kids. I get that too, But
it comes down to, well would you rock another team's gear,
especially for your kids? And I'm telling you I don't
have a son yet, but when I do have little
Guesston someday, As I said, and I'm still in the
(37:29):
game now what I do.
Speaker 2 (37:31):
I would have a problem with it. I would. I
would think twice about it, and I thought about why. Rich.
Speaker 3 (37:35):
I was in the bathroom and I had an ep Fanny,
and I was like, I'll tell you why, because I
feel like a fraud in a phony, and some people
are just better at feeling that way.
Speaker 2 (37:45):
I don't like it.
Speaker 3 (37:46):
I would feel like a fraud and a phony wearing
the jersey of another team. It's like wearing a band
that I don't listen to his shirt. I feel like
a fraud. I don't play that game. I don't live
that life. I don't do that. You take yourself way
too Seriouserger, I'm not an only guy. Even Mike who
runs this place in the hallway, he said he could
(38:07):
Mike who runs this place over there. Mike never heard
of them, Big Mike the bear, you know him, Doctor Love.
He said he would never do this either, but he
has two exceptions. Two exceptions. By the way, the fact
that Mike agrees with you makes me feel even better
about disagreeing with you.
Speaker 2 (38:23):
No, because we're not phony baloney's. I love how you
have more allegiance to the yank to Aaron Judge over
your own child.
Speaker 3 (38:32):
It's not that it's not it's what it sounds like. Really, No,
it's I I this is where I'm from, this is
who my family rooted for, who I root for, who
sort of defined who I was for most of my life.
He goes that there's two exceptions. He said that he
(38:53):
would wear the gear, but only.
Speaker 2 (38:54):
To the game. Only to the game, right.
Speaker 3 (38:57):
He would never like wear it anywhere else once he
he's out of them in the field, changing the car
on the way to the pizza party, he said, But
he would never ever wear ever San Francisco Giants gear
ever matter what.
Speaker 6 (39:10):
This is more about wearing a rival teams colors, because
it was like if it was like the Milwaukee Brewers
or something like that, rich, I would do that for
my son, the San Francisco Giants. No, I'm not wearing
those orange put colors. And it's not even about the
hatreds about like you guys that's over one hundred years old.
(39:32):
You say, get over yourself. You just don't get it.
You're just you don't get it. You don't stand for anything.
Let's go to the phone. You can't say blanket dumb crap.
Speaker 3 (39:42):
Like that. And when you don't stand for something, don't
for any I would wear would you would prove it
every day with your foot flops. You wear pajama pants
to work. You should wear that phrase? What if you
if you don't stand for something? I invented it. I think, yeah,
you guys, if you guys ever heard this one? If
(40:02):
you don't stand for something, you fall for everything. He
just says, nonsense. I have wore flip flops in years.
He like, that's funny.
Speaker 2 (40:09):
I get this guy, pull him up right now.
Speaker 4 (40:11):
Every time this guy says something I got, ninety percent
of it is garbage.
Speaker 3 (40:15):
Because I tell you, whar flip flops? I think pictures
that send them to all my other friends and make
fun of you. Let me, well, yes, what I gold
patch Scott speeze out with your soul patch over there?
Speaker 2 (40:25):
I should take a picture of that and said that
everyone needs.
Speaker 3 (40:27):
To do that.
Speaker 2 (40:27):
Where's the soul patch? We find it? What's on your
chin right now?
Speaker 3 (40:30):
The same way you're just same facial hair that's always
on my face. What's on your what's under your beard?
That's what I want to know. Fortunately, rock for five.
Let's go to the phones eight seven seven ninety nine,
O Fox, we got too many people on hold here
getting ready to disagree with Rich. I guarantee it, because
you're talking to sports fans. I guarantee it. I give
(40:51):
the George Forman guarantee.
Speaker 4 (40:53):
Maybe people need a root awakening that if you have
a problem wearing I don't know, a San Francisco Giants
Little League shirt, then maybe you're the problem.
Speaker 3 (41:02):
I'm not saying I wouldn't do it, but I would
have a problem with it. Let's start with Texas. That's
where Rich is right now, Jerome and Texas. You're on
the Cavino and Rich show.
Speaker 10 (41:13):
Hey, how's you going.
Speaker 5 (41:14):
Uh?
Speaker 10 (41:14):
My son's little league team is called the Bananas, So
I don't know what their rival team would be. But
I think as long as you show up to your
kids games, it doesn't matter what you wear, they'll remember
that you're there. So if you don't want to wear
the rival teams, just don't just show up to your
kids games.
Speaker 3 (41:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (41:34):
But I'm saying if you're coaching your kid, right, sweet answer.
Speaker 3 (41:38):
Yeah, But if you're coaching your kid.
Speaker 2 (41:40):
Rich would be the pop Banana because he's the best. Well,
you know what I would I would rock a whole
yellow alphabet.
Speaker 3 (41:46):
And Davis, I mean Richard Boys actually does have a
banana suit. I'm sure he does.
Speaker 2 (41:51):
You were wondering, Uh, we got James in Virginia.
Speaker 3 (41:55):
No, no, no, hold on, we won't have time.
Speaker 2 (41:57):
Okay, Hey, James, Patrick, John, everybody tight.
Speaker 3 (42:00):
Hold on.
Speaker 2 (42:00):
I agree with rich Thanks James, thank you, thank you.
Oh Hayden, tank tight, everybody hang tight.
Speaker 3 (42:08):
It's just ridiculous. Rich loves to make me feel like
I'm the only guy. I can't wait to hear the
rest of the phone calls. We do it next, live
from Mercedes Benz Studios.
