What Up? What Up?

Speaker 2 (00:00):
It's Danny g executive producer for Covino and Rich. What
a fun week, really fun getting to fill in for
the great Colin Cowherd on Tuesday and Wednesday and wrapped
around that our normal afternoon slash early evening timeslot. So
on this long labor day weekend, enjoy the best of
the best of the week from CNR and we'll be

(00:21):
back in our normal time slot Tuesday afternoon after the holiday.

Speaker 3 (00:28):
What do you feel about doggies and jerseys? It is
National dog Day and how do you feel about This
happens a lot in LA. You got to keep mind
we're in Los Angeles. I don't know if this happens
where you live. If it does, let us know.

Speaker 1 (00:39):
It's all the time. You sound like we live in Mars.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
I say that to give a perspective, and you should
know better, bubble boy, because yes, the things we talk
about don't apply to everybody.

Speaker 4 (00:48):
So compared to the rest of the country, this place
can be Mars. Yeah, it might as well be Mars.

Speaker 3 (00:52):
You share the stories my daughter tells from school, I'm like,
they said, what who did what? The teacher is Huh? Yeah,
it might as well be mars bro So. When I
was a new dad. This was fifteen years ago, when
the Yankees were celebrating their World series, their last World Series.

(01:13):
When I was a new dad, I remember strolling around
town the new baby, all excited. But also I had
two little chi wawas at the time. I chiwowai chee
wow wow. And I'll never forget the look of people's
face when they would see me as a new dad
with my stroller, and he'd be.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
Like, oh my god.

Speaker 3 (01:36):
And I thought for sure they're gonna say, congratulations on
your new baby. You're a dad, You're a dad, look
at you, proud young daddy.

Speaker 1 (01:46):
Congrats. What's her name? But it was always can I
pet them? And I'm like and then it happened over
and over again. People were way more excited. This is
the truth. And I have a cute kid. It's not
like I have a mute and little sloth baby or.

Speaker 4 (02:01):
Something baby ru. I'n't have an ogre baby. It wasn't
like a green little baby.

Speaker 1 (02:06):
This a little Shrek.

Speaker 3 (02:07):
It wasn't like a little coolie in my stroller. Okay,
I have a beautiful little daughter. She's fifteen now, Daddy,
she might be the curse of the Yankees. They haven't
won since. Yeah, But what I noticed time and time again,
I as maybe you were like, God, I'll do anything
if it could be a healthy baby, and.

Speaker 1 (02:22):
Guys like the Yankees will never win again. I feel
like that's what happened.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
I'm forced to have another one just to break the curse,
so it could happen. So it happened repeatedly rich where,
of course al Pacino became a dad recently. No, no, no,
I'm saying the same thing over and over again. Where
strangers would come up to me, they would never acknowledge
the baby. It was always acknowledging the doggies. And I'm like,
people care more about these doggies. Granted, I know puppies

(02:50):
are cute, puppies are great, doggies are awesome.

Speaker 1 (02:52):
This isn't keep saying doggies.

Speaker 3 (02:54):
This isn't a dis on doggies or puppies or little
creatures that you love. But I'm saying, can we prioritize people.
I know it's National Dog Day, but I can't tell
you how much it aggravated me after a while when
people were more excited to see my dogs than my
actual kid. And this is again when she was little.

(03:14):
For years, for as long as you pushed the stroller around,
this was a thing, and I thought it was absurd.
So when I ever do want to acknowledge that's a
cute little doggie you got, I definitely acknowledged a kid
first because I'm not a creep, so I could do
it freely, like, hey, what's a little guy? Hey cool dog?

(03:35):
Can we acknowledge people? Can we acknowledge that people are
more important? And I know there's other people like no,
they're not, Yes they are. Those people are lunatic, they are.
It's almost misdirected love. I'm not saying don't love your animal,
but love your neighbor, Love that neighbor, love another human.

Speaker 1 (03:54):
Hey s I always say I love you bro, love
your fellow colleague, even though he's a jerk, like Cope,
I love you to Cope. I'm a jerk. I mean
you could be joking. I'd say you because you're the
nicest guy. Because if I said anyone else, they might think, oh,
maybe he's being serious. But my point here is it's
National Doggie Day. Let's acknowledge people. I think we've done

(04:17):
a bad job at that.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
Recently, there are people that would answer the following question incorrectly.
More people would rather see a doggie than their friend's
kids for the first day of school. There's no question
about it. There are people that would answer this question incorrectly, Hey,
random guy, Yeah, what are you rather that dog get

(04:39):
run over?

Speaker 1 (04:39):
Or I was sam? Oh, and those people are sick os.

Speaker 3 (04:46):
There are people who ask me about my dog before
they ask me about my kid.

Speaker 1 (04:51):
There are people that know my dog's name, but they
don't know my kid's name. That's absurd.

Speaker 3 (04:57):
Do you think it's like a generational thing where or
maybe a thing where? And this is good, But do
you think we've been taught like it's a little weird
to comment on someone's kids, so you're playing it safe,
but it's not as weird, like if you're walking down
if you're walking down the block, that's.

Speaker 1 (05:14):
The shame of it.

Speaker 3 (05:15):
Maybe I think like maybe someone feels safer saying like, oh, hey,
little guy, I'm like pet and a dog. Meanwhile, if
you went by someone's kid like oh, look at the
little baby, someone might be.

Speaker 1 (05:25):
Like, all right, back off.

Speaker 3 (05:26):
Like if you wave at a kid just because he's
sticking his tongue out at you, or something. You stick
your tongue out some kid, like, they'll think you're a creep,
so you just avoid it completely.

Speaker 1 (05:35):
I get it.

Speaker 3 (05:36):
You know what everyone's on guard for for creepos, so
regular people. Yeah, but I say your approach is weird then,
because you know what I do freely, I'll stick my
tongue add a little kid, like, what's up, a little guy?
What's wrong with that? I'm a creep, I'm a dad.
I'm just acknowledging your ugly little kid here. I think
there's nothing wrong with that. There shouldn't be anything, But

(05:57):
I think there's a I think if you really want
to get to the bottom of it is because everyone
never wants to ever come across like what do you
doing a weird guy? If I'm on a plane and
there's a kid next to me and he's like maybe
like four or five years old, this is the age
of my son.

Speaker 1 (06:14):
Yeah, come a little fella. I'll be a little fella.

Speaker 3 (06:16):
Hey, buddy, I bet I bet you you like dinosaurs.
I bet you you like Bluie. And then you immediately
have to follow it up to their parents.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
Like I have a guy, the kid. They're age, that's fine,
but Unfortunately we have to justify it. I get it.
It can't just be a nice person.

Speaker 3 (06:29):
But it is National Dog Day and you see a
lot of doggy videos. In fact, Rich posted one on
our page. Yeah, shout out to his dog Piper to
show you how much dog to show you how much
people care about pets more than humans.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
That's really what I'm getting at.

Speaker 3 (06:41):
We have been posting videos of our show. Now you
can say the contents the problem. We've posted our baby
announcements on social media. We've been garner half the attention
of what Rich is about to describe here. If you
go back to the Coveno Rich archives, every video we've
ever posted in the history of our show, the video

(07:03):
with the most views is when I gave my wife
our dog Piper when it was a puppy. Has almost
twenty million views and close. It's like we have videos
of Rich like announcing uh, you know, his baby on
the air. We have videos and clips of me talking
about when I was gonna be a dad for the

(07:24):
first time. But like a list celebrity interviews, the really
funny moments they get views. Number one video, by far
by leaps and bounds is Rich giving his wife the puppy,
and you could see it at Covene owners as we speak.
I figured, why now this is no knock on doggies,
love your dog. Doggies are awesome. I read that little

(07:45):
quote Rich that you popularized here on Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
And it brings a little tear every once in a while.

Speaker 3 (07:51):
They're a little part of your life, but you're all
of their life, and that's why they're so pumped to
see you every time you come home. You're all they got.
They're adorable. They love you unconditionally. So yeah, shout out
to all the dogs a National Doggie Day.

Speaker 1 (08:06):
But people.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
Prioritize them. Some people are good people. Don' want the
proof in the pudding, you know what it is. I
think there's just so many jerks that just ruin it
for good people. You want the proof in the pudding
or just to put it? Okay, give it, give me both.
I posted that video an hour ago. Okay, that has
more views than the last video we posted. Lady, I'm

(08:30):
not surprised within an hour. All right, So love th dog,
love the dog, Love my neighbor.

Speaker 1 (08:35):
How about that.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
Enjoy your National Dog Day, Give him a treat, give
him a high five, minute pat on the head from
the Cavino and Rich Show.

Speaker 1 (08:42):
Now, Rich, we have a question.

Speaker 3 (08:45):
Oh no, no, Before we get to that, can we
readdress a question we discussed maybe a decade ago. Sure,
it's obviously new audience, it'll be a fresh set of answers.
Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox we are live
on National Dog Day. The question was once posed, if
it meant saving your dog's life, Oh boy, would you

(09:09):
let your significant other's legs be broken? These are the
worst questions, like just like like nick nick cup, you
have a lovely wife. I see you're on Instagram with
you. You guys seem like a lovely young cars question right sick.
If I were to say, yo, choice, ay your dog
dies or choice be your wife, they have to like
snap both their like saw ten saw.

Speaker 1 (09:30):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (09:30):
I don't remember your take, but what I do remember
ten years ago is whatever you said, you got a
ton of backlash. I remember being like.

Speaker 1 (09:36):
Kill the dog.

Speaker 3 (09:37):
I'm not breaking my legs. I still might feel that
way my dog. You know, people are so passionate. You
got a pet, Yeah, what's your pet's name?

Speaker 2 (09:49):
Well, we have two. My cat I brought to the family.
His name is Mac. He looks like a panther.

Speaker 3 (09:54):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (09:54):
And then Daisy the dog, a little chihuahua. Who do
you love more? Of course?

Speaker 4 (09:59):
Mac, He's mine, my childhood Charlie.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
Daddy, Mac, you're a little kiddie. God forbid. Your choice
was he's silver and black, silver and black.

Speaker 3 (10:11):
Over it's a Raiders cat in this saw sort of hypothetical.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
Watch play a game not really, no dandy on National
Dog Day, We'll go Cat Day. Cat's gotta go or like, uh,
you know, Brenda breaks both her legs. Man, do I
get a nurse?

Speaker 2 (10:35):
Because if I have to nurse her back to health,
then I don't want her legs broke it?

Speaker 3 (10:40):
No, you have to pay for it out of pocket? No,
ritch pose this hypothetical. Rich is right about ten years
ago on our show right again. It was on Maxim
Radio years ago, and I remember Rich said he would
kill his pet or have his like with no with
no thought but over that and he got distract We

(11:04):
almost got canceled before cancel was a thing destrayed.

Speaker 1 (11:09):
I'm so glad I didn't really have a solid answer
something because he took so much from that.

Speaker 3 (11:14):
But I'm surprised you would even bring it up. Again,
I got kids. Now they love the dog. So it's
different now, right, a little different. I'm more compassionate. But
I remember back in the day, Danny, before I had kids,
Someone's like, would you, uh, Troy, say your dog dies
or your at the time, my wife, your girlfriend breaks
both their legs.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
And I was like, what a first of all, terrible question.
You're right, but.

Speaker 3 (11:35):
Secondly, anyone that chooses pain to your partner or a
human over your dog is wildly crazy, no one. It
goes to show you too, though, the evolution of you
as a person, because when you asked this question the
first time, I was probably in my twenties. I'm a
grown man now, man boy, man boy if you want
to call me that, And I can tell you it's
a much tougher question now having a bond with the dog,

(11:59):
which I.

Speaker 1 (12:00):
Never really did prior.

Speaker 3 (12:02):
So I have grown since because I'm with Nick, like,
oh man, that is like horrible even think about little
THEO who you love, your little the little dog, the
little dog that sits on your lap and watches one
hundred and sixty two Yankee games with Hey, what nobody
loves me? Nobody? Maybe my mom more than THEO.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
The dog and.

Speaker 2 (12:19):
Our significant others. They can come back from broken legs
with rehab. There's no rehab for death.

Speaker 3 (12:24):
So so twenty years ago or ten years ago when
he has this, Danny j I was not thinking along
those lines. I was so you you had no compassion?
What are he taking out your girlfriend's legs?

Speaker 1 (12:35):
Now? Yeah? I guess so. Unfortunately, Yeah, sorry'll heal. I'm sorry, sorry, Jordan.
They heal.

Speaker 3 (12:43):
And it is National Doggie Days. Happy National dog Day.
Love your pets, love them a lot, just don't love
them more than humans. That's that's where I think we
get a little even little kids, because adults could be
a holes.

Speaker 1 (12:53):
I get it.

Speaker 3 (12:54):
Yeah, kids, they're great. You didn't watch the Little League
World Series? It was fantastic.

Speaker 1 (12:58):
Anyone that says of animals more than humans, you're you're
just a weany then then you just need to bet
you need to meet better humans to tell the FBI
to keep it an eye on those people. Yeah. When
someone goes, I like pets more than humans, but it
happens a lot, then you're then you're a weird, lame human.
Make better friends. You mean it.

Speaker 4 (13:15):
When you find out, like you read some article about
a fire that killed someone's pets. There's people commenting on there.
They're like like, it was like, I don't care about
the humans, right, okay, what about oh my god, my wife?

Speaker 1 (13:29):
Nothing. I love dogs enough. Shout out to all the dogs.

Speaker 3 (13:32):
We're big fans, but we just figured we'd have a
conversation about it on National dog on National Doggie Day.
Well over the weekend. You're right, a lot of the
highlights railed around baseball. Becauess we're in the dog days
of summer and no one's quite No one's quite ready
dog days to say, no one's quite ready for football yet.
Ub sit good dog. You are not really seeing the

(13:56):
starters yet.

Speaker 1 (13:57):
In the NFL. You're seeing a couple series here and there.
We're we're too weeks away from NFL kicking off, which
is gonna be awesome. Can't wait.

Speaker 3 (14:06):
Not only do you have the Thursday, next Thursday Ravens Chiefs,
next Friday from Brazil, we got Packers Eagle, so you
got Thursday, you got Friday, then you got Sunday, so
next week it all begins. So we're trust me. I
feel like the next six months of our life is
gonna be football, football, football, So.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
Yeah, But damn. Don't downplay all the excitement in baseball
right now?

Speaker 4 (14:27):
Man.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
Yeah, but once football starts, people are like, yeah, later baseball.

Speaker 3 (14:30):
That's not true. If you have if your team stinks,
I don't think of buying a baseball just like that.
I think the general sentiment would be most the general
people are wrong because baseball is great. I'm not here
to say that. I'm here to say, hey, pay attention
to some big things going on in baseball. That doesn't
mean you can't still enjoy your football. If you are
that quick to jump ship on your baseball team is

(14:51):
because they're garbage.

Speaker 1 (14:52):
That's what I have to say about that. I that's you.

Speaker 3 (14:58):
I think you're speaking on me heaving No, No, no,
I think i'm I think I'm speaking on behalf of
most where I do leave around baseball a little longer.
Do you think Danny G's dissing on his Dodgers. No,
because they're good and he's still pumped about his Raiders.

Speaker 1 (15:11):
There's no question he's the guy that believes in Gardner Minshall. Yeah,
there's room for both. There's room for both, no doubt.
It's like the little tortilla girl. Why not both wind up?
Why not both.

Speaker 3 (15:20):
So you know what, we'll we'll get into some NFL stuff. Well,
I know you wanted to talk about the weekend highlights
of this. We're witnessing history, as MLB dot com has
written about, as you've seen all over social media. We're
witnessing history in baseball. Are you paying attention? Are you
sure about that? Are you watching? Do you even know

(15:43):
what I'm talking about? If not, I'm gonna fill you
in and I'm going to pose this question. What's more
likely to happen?

Speaker 1 (15:50):
And what's more?

Speaker 3 (15:50):
And by the way, what's more impressive? What's more impressive?
One involves a Dodger, one involves a Yankee. It's like
talking to a girl that's a six at the bar.
The NFL is like a ten that walks in. You're like, yeah,
it's been nice talking see you.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
That's baseball. Baseball.

Speaker 3 (16:06):
If your team stinks like the Mets, baseball's the street.
They come back at the end of the season like
the Mets. And if you got nothing to cheer for,
and I'm giving you something.

Speaker 1 (16:13):
To cheer for, right, baseball? That's baseball.

Speaker 3 (16:16):
What's more likely to happen? We're witnessing history. This is
all over social media. I'm here to remind you what's
more likely to happen your boy Danny G Show.

Speaker 1 (16:27):
Hey, O Tani.

Speaker 3 (16:29):
Currently sits at forty one home runs. If I'm not mistaken, right,
let's check that.

Speaker 1 (16:34):
Did he hit one? I didn't know about what a
way to get the fortieth the other night? By the way, yes,
Grand Salalami? How cool is that? Right? So again witnessing history.
Who cares about baseball?

Speaker 3 (16:48):
Forty one and forty. So he's forty one in forty
forty forty Jose Canseco style. He's in the forty to
forty club like jay Z. But he has a chance
with a left thirty games to go fifty to fifty
and become the first player to.

Speaker 1 (17:05):
Ever do that.

Speaker 2 (17:05):
Yeah, he's super pressive projected right now at forty nine
and fifty.

Speaker 1 (17:10):
I think I saw you. That's up right there.

Speaker 3 (17:13):
And we're talking about guys who thrive in big moments, right.
So that is so cool because you got to take
yourself back to the Conseco days when he went forty forty.

Speaker 1 (17:24):
That was like the coolest thing. We were collecting baseball cards.
He was a rated rookie. We had that card. He
was forty forty and you're like, dang man, he's fast
and he has power. We thought that was cool.

Speaker 3 (17:35):
Of course, Johey is about to do something we've never
seen before. As Mickey mantle One said, Oh, if I
knew that was the thing, I would have done it
every year. But besides Mickey Manhal saying that, right, forty
forty was always the benchmark, there was I know where
Kevino's going again.

Speaker 1 (17:47):
This is for the casual fan.

Speaker 3 (17:48):
That means fifty home runs, fifty stolen bases, and it
seems obvious, but most people that had speed didn't have
the power, and the people that had the power didn't
have the speed.

Speaker 1 (17:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (17:58):
I mean, I think why it is so special is
because those are two skills up well, you know when
they say the guy's a five tool player, the two
skills that are the toughest to have to be a
fast guy and a powerful guy that just doesn't usually,
you know, combine into a Jose Kiseko nineteen eighty eight
type of guy. So speed and power combined is very special,

(18:21):
which is why when you ask me what is more
likely to happen, and then the follow up might be
what's more impressive, the answer is so clear to me,
it's crystal clear. Really, it's like crystal clear vibrations. Persuasions.
Crystal clear persuasion, persuasion. Yeah, okay, goodbrus Yeah, good vibrations. Anyway,

(18:43):
almost see these as so I got I before you.

Speaker 1 (18:48):
Even get to Judge, I want to let it be
known that Otani is the sixth to forty forty guy.
And I have the seasons here just to show you.
That's here.

Speaker 3 (18:55):
Kinseko forty and forty, Barry Bonds nineteen ninety six, forty two,
Homers forty, Stone Bases a Rod forty two, forty six,
Alfonso Soriano forty six, forty one. Wow, Acuna Junior forty
one and seventy three.

Speaker 1 (19:15):
Yeah, it's not easy.

Speaker 3 (19:16):
If Otani gets fifty to fifty, it is to me
astronomically more impressive than if Aaron Judge hit sixty three
home runs. Oh, you mean breaking his own record breaking? Yeah,
I think it's that's the one. It's all right, Well,
that's up to debate. But again, we're witnessing history in
the making. What's more likely to happen? Otani projected to

(19:39):
hit forty nine home runs. He's at forty one now
forty stone bases. Could he go fifty to fifty or
Judge who has fifty one?

Speaker 1 (19:48):
He's just everything. Everything he is, he destroys true every
time he makes solid contact, and it's in the air. God,
they went back to back to back, belly to bell
belly this weekend. Every time Judge steps up, it's must
see TV. It's insane what he's doing right now. He
could be triple crown. He's at fifty one home runs.

(20:13):
He needs twelve more to break his own record. He's
projected to hit sixty three now. I think at this
pace right now, May was his best month. He hit fourteen.
Judge has hit twelve in counting in August, so he
would have to have let's say twelve, Yeah, he'd have

(20:35):
to match what he produced in August. Kiddy finished strong
Yankee seventy.

Speaker 3 (20:40):
He stays as hot as he is right now, he's
gonna break his own record of sixty two, and he'll
have sixty three home runs again. Aaron Judge sits on
fifty one. There's thirty one games left. You're watching two
beastodons put up ridiculous circus numbers. It's really insane to
see how great both of these do, so what's more

(21:01):
likely to happen? And then, like Rich said, which is
more impressive fifty to fifty for Otani or Judge hitting
sixty three? But again, Judge isn't just hitting sixty three.
The dude is hitting for average. He's hitting well over
three thirty. He's doing everything right. He has one hundred
and twenty something my eyes, I don't disagree. Aaron Judge

(21:21):
is a beast among boys. Yeah, he's unbelievable that Jean
Carlos Stanton said, he's out here playing video games.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
The rest of us are out here grinding. Yeah, Like,
he's just making it look easier than I've ever seen
anyone else make it look.

Speaker 3 (21:35):
Aaron Judge is actually was at a better pace last year.
But if you remember Aaron Judge struggled down the stretch
and just beat the record, if you remember he had
a he had a two years ago. I'm sorry, two
years ago, Judge had a slow ending when he beat
the record, and he had a slow start this year. Yeah,
So here's what I'm going to say. I think they
my prediction they both break it. But how could that

(21:58):
that would be?

Speaker 1 (21:58):
And that's the point you're witnessing history, things that have
never been done before. I'm not saying don't be pumped
about football. I'm saying, slow down a little bit and
enjoy the summer and enjoy the dog days of it.
Dog days, well baseball?

Speaker 3 (22:14):
Are you saying, don't don't worry about football? And pumpkinspice
a lot is just yet?

Speaker 5 (22:18):
Not just yet?

Speaker 3 (22:19):
It's preseason, relaxed, really cool, musty TV. Every time Otani's
at the plate, every time Otani's on the bases, this
is something that we could never see, maybe never see again.
You tell your kids, hey, kids, come here, that's show Hailtani,
He's about to make history. Every time Judge steps up
to the batter's box, Yo, Grandma, come here, let's watch this. Hey, kids,

(22:42):
get over here. Hey, uh, what's your dog's name? Nicope, Winnie?
Get over here? Right, witnessing history. Don't give up on
this season. This is really cool. What's more likely to happen?
I actually agree with Rich. I'm rooting for both. I'm
urting for I think both of these guys could pull
this off. I'm leaning more towards Aaron Judge because he's

(23:03):
he's like absurdly streaky, so if he's hitting home runs,
I think you could hit six twelve sixty he could
be Yeah, he get his sixty five maybe.

Speaker 2 (23:12):
By the way, don't let this go unnoticed. The Guardian
Jose Ramirez has a great chance to also join the
forty forty club, so he'd be the seventh in MLA.

Speaker 3 (23:22):
That yeah, already brought that dot combo of speed and power.
Ramirez is great now. The only reason if you're a
fan of greatness, don't tune out. I think they'll both
be your I mean, is it clear that it's a
runaway that they'll both be National League and American League MVPs.
I don't mean any any If there's another first place
vote casted, that writer should be five. If anyone wants

(23:44):
to debate it, I think you should leave the war
five honestly.

Speaker 1 (23:48):
Yeah, now beat it with that.

Speaker 3 (23:50):
Yeah, if you're the sports writer, that's like, oh of
the goal different not Judger Rotnic for me, that guy
should lose or that woman should lose her job, exactly
old school Vince mcmonstyle before he was a creep. So
let me let me say this as we go to
Nick Kope, I think they're both impressive. I know you

(24:11):
could argue steroid era, but the fact that no one's
done fifty to fifty makes it a little more impressive
to me, where even if Judge breaks the ale record
of his own, you still have Sosa had sixty three,
Sosa had sixty four, McGuire had sixty five, Sosa had
sixty six, McGuire had seventy, Barry Bonds had seventy three.

Speaker 1 (24:30):
I know you're gonna say steroids ro American League record,
though I know that was part of it.

Speaker 3 (24:35):
Yeah, I know, but we live in an interleague world
now with there's no separation, there's no dhs, no this
or that. So it's one big league. It's the American
League record. It didn't change because you just said so.
You know, that'd be like, say's the AFC record. Just
that man that did matter Pepper to make the record
he broke two years ago. All of a sudden, it

(24:55):
doesn't matter.

Speaker 1 (24:55):
Calvino.

Speaker 2 (24:56):
He's not as big as Aaron Judge, but Showhey surprises
a lot of people when they see him in person.
He's a big dude, Ye bet big, and that fast
is crazy. I looked it up to put it in perspective.
Aaron Judge has forty nine career stolen basis. So show
hey does this, He'll have one more just in this scenes. No,
that is insane too, But you know what else, Judge

(25:18):
not have more stolevations? You I think two strides he's there, Yeah,
well like step step on month. Second, he's got heavy,
heavy feet like Herman Munster. He wears this heavy boot cleats.
But you know what that is, Danny j insane when
you say that. But you know what else is insane?

Speaker 3 (25:32):
The fact that Judge could win the Triple Crown, has
one hundred and two RBIs and he's batting three thirty three.
That's insane, just under Wit Junior, who's three forty seven.
So you need Wit to slump and Judge to stay hot.

Speaker 1 (25:44):
Yeah, it's unbelievable.

Speaker 3 (25:45):
It really is insane. Oh, great baseball season. I'm just
a little bitter that my Mets are stinking like ablenc
And fine, it's our job to get people.

Speaker 1 (25:51):
You hiped? All right? Nick Kope? What says you, buddy?
I know you're a Giants fan. They're sort of done Zoso. Yeah,
I've been checked out on baseball for a long time.

Speaker 6 (25:59):
No one has ever done forty five forty five, by
the way, so even that would be an accomplishment.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
I think if they lose today, today's a day where
I'm like, a later today might be the could.

Speaker 3 (26:12):
You claim to be a baseball fan? Little I'm a
Mets fan. If you're that quick to jump Now. I
got a quote Rich because this is what he said
off the year.

Speaker 1 (26:23):
I really think And it's sort of like painting and
broad strokes too, because you said I really think football
simply just supersedes baseball once football, once it kicks in,
that's it. Baseball's over.

Speaker 3 (26:34):
Baseball's not over just because you say so or just
because football started. I feel like we're talking todaylous and
we were talking to Collin's crew. I think Tilly Music,
you know, Big Papa Bear, Ryan, Big Sexy, a big
sexy that's looking sexy today. I think we all agreed
that we all love baseball. I'll give you an analogis

(26:54):
where was that if we are filling in for Colin?
There's there's a month left, and you're like, I'm we're
filling it for Colin. So what does Colin do?

Speaker 1 (27:02):
Best?

Speaker 3 (27:03):
Analogies? Right, Let me do my best Colin stars attract stars.
Let me let me give you a Colin.

Speaker 1 (27:10):
Keep the scorecard at home. This impersonation is gonna happen
a lot.

Speaker 3 (27:13):
This is I'll give you a Colin. Baseball is like
being at the bar and you're talking to a girl
that's a six. Oh okay, now you might want to
go home with her. You might see there's some fun there.
Colin would never say something now, he's too classy. Ye,
Baseball is the six that you're sort of okay hanging with.

(27:36):
Then you look at the door and a twelve walks in.
Oh weave.

Speaker 1 (27:43):
That is the NFL, And I'm like, yo, Baseball, it's
been nice, goodbye, and I dip away to football. She's
the twelve that you're sticking around talking to the girl
that you have no future with. I said the baseball
What happened to the rich Davis I met in the
early two thousands?

Speaker 3 (28:00):
What happened to the rich Davis that would have said
I could have fun with the sixth and the twelve.

Speaker 1 (28:05):
I can make a night of this guy, you know what? Yeah,
what happened to that?

Speaker 4 (28:09):
I'm just saying, and it goes with what we were
saying with an eg. He's dropping off kids at school,
that's what happens.

Speaker 1 (28:13):
Yes, you could do exactly what happened to that guy, rich,
mister party guy. You could do both. You don't have
to choose. I don't understand why.

Speaker 3 (28:21):
If you have to choose, a lot of people chose
you don't. That's my point. Consider me the Oldel Paso
tortilla girl. You know, the Oldel Passa tortilla girl. Leney,
just call yourself the old Passo tortilla boy. I might
as well be. There's a very famous commercial at least
in the barrio I grew up in where in Jersey
I did?

Speaker 1 (28:39):
I grew up in Union, New Jersey.

Speaker 3 (28:41):
But there was a commercial growing up and they had
this big dilemma of do they want corn or flower?

Speaker 1 (28:46):
Tortillas corner flower. It's a big debate, and the little
Oldel Passo tortilla girl goes, why not both? Why not both?

Speaker 3 (28:55):
It is ridiculous. It makes me want to strangle you.
Are you saying this conversation was solid by little tortie girl?
It pretty much is why not both? And the answer,
by the way, is flour. If you go for corn,
you're lying because you just want to like eat healthier.
Like who would choose a corn tortilla. It is a
taco Tuesday. Rich, So would any will be a corn voluntarily?
I mean I got a little I got both, you

(29:16):
know what, I have both of him. He really are
a little tortilla boy. I'm the tortilla boy.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
Well, so hold on.

Speaker 3 (29:21):
I want to make it very clear if your team's
out of it and Rich's mets aren't on the brink.
But let's say you're a Rockies fan or a pirate
Sky Yeah, whatever, I just gave you two awesome reasons
to tune in. A huge fan of one Eyed Willie.
You know, Shohey is doing ridiculous things. These are circus numbers.

(29:43):
It's it's it's absurd. It's like uh with Jean Carlos.
Stanton said this week, Aaron Jude's out here playing video games.
He's like Herman Munster and Pinstripes. Every time he connects,
every time he hits, everything he hits, he just throws.
He makes contact and his and you're like, oh my goodness,
he's gonna break his own record. This guy's insane. He's

(30:05):
out here playing video games while the rest of us
are grinding. He's just that much better than everybody. I'm
not sure I've watched baseball my whole life. I don't
think I've ever seen anyone as locked in as this dude.
And then in the National League you have this superhero
by the name of Shohey who's.

Speaker 1 (30:24):
Doing ridiculous things for you to be able to say, no,
I quit.

Speaker 3 (30:28):
Baseball just because. And by the way, for preseason football,
give me a break, talk about boring. I have it
on in the background. I start falling asleep. They're not
playing anybody. I'm not saying you should be excited for football.
Everybody is. I get that, But I let's enjoy the summer.
Let's enjoy baseball while it's here. So do you turn
the page Metallica styles to go with Metallica? Do you

(30:51):
turn the page on baseball and dive right into football?
Is that automatic like Rich claims it to be. I
think you could still keep your eye on baseball. But
I'll go back to my bar analogy. By the way,
would you say this, If polar Bear Pete was here,
he would look at you with disdain, with disgust, a
kind a google at least give me Lindor.

Speaker 1 (31:12):
If Lindora was here, he'd be like, what kind of
Mets fan. Are you what country you think this is?

Speaker 3 (31:18):
So the Mets have I'll just be selfish for a
second and tell you what. I'll determine this on because
football starts next week. NFL kickoff is a week and
two days away. The Mets play the Garbaggios, the trashiest,
terrible team in baseball. They play the White Sox for
three games next week over the weekend, actually while the

(31:43):
Braves have to go to Philadelphia.

Speaker 1 (31:45):
Ooh see that is the three.

Speaker 3 (31:47):
If three there's like one or two games swing there,
then I'm in still, But I always say it, and
I can't be the only one. I guarantee there's people
that are like yo, that Rich Davis. He's onto something,
because I feel like the goal of baseball for a
lot of fans is yo, can you keep me interested
at least until football starts?

Speaker 1 (32:05):
Now, it's a bonus of your team. Mix a postseason.

Speaker 3 (32:07):
Yeah, if you're a Dodgers fan like Danny and you're
watching show, hey be ridiculous, and Mookie Mets is back
in Freeman and Munsey and your lineup that's ridiculous. Or
if you got Sodo, Judge and Stanton and Belly to
belly back to back to back home runs.

Speaker 1 (32:21):
I get it.

Speaker 3 (32:22):
But if you're not rooting for an elite baseball team,
I think a lot of goals revolve around, hey, could
these sports bring me to football?

Speaker 1 (32:32):
Wow? And I'll credit the Mets they kept me interested.
I'm starting to, you know, lose it now.

Speaker 3 (32:38):
But with this weekend series coming up against the White Sox,
the Mets don't sweep the White Sox.

Speaker 1 (32:44):
In a playoff chase, I'm out.

Speaker 3 (32:46):
I think if you do the math, you could say
it's a great time to be a sports fan though,
because I mean, baseball, we grew up with it, you
love it, and football, I mean there is nothing better
than football. I'm just saying, enjoy the baseball season. Why
you can, because it's synonymous with your summertime. You waited
all year for this time of the year, and you
want to fast forward and jump right into the fall.

(33:08):
I say, relaxed a little bit. You don't need that
pumpkins spice in your life.

Speaker 1 (33:11):
Not yet.

Speaker 2 (33:12):
I think with the NFL season interrupts is a random
Angels Tigers game that maybe you'd have on in the background.
But if it's a Monday, Thursday, Sunday, even Saturday with
college football, you're not going to have that MLB game
on anymore. Yeah, your favorite team in baseball, you're not
going to sleep on them. But it's the casual. It's

(33:32):
the teams were casually watching that we're not going to
pay attention to as much in baseball.

Speaker 1 (33:37):
As as the saying goes, which is true, you could
watch any two football teams. Yeah, you could only watch
your baseball team. It's the truth.

Speaker 4 (33:45):
Who said that, unless it's a playoffs Lincoln? I think
it was you know it was out Rutherford B.

Speaker 1 (33:51):
Hayes. I remember, I remember you see got taff got
stuck at a bathtub?

Speaker 4 (33:56):
Right?

Speaker 1 (33:56):
It was the president that got stuck at a bathtub.

Speaker 3 (33:58):
Most after he said that. Not all that that is true.
I mean that is the power of the NFL. You
can watch any random game and enjoy. Take two teams
that you think are in your mind boring Titans Seahawks.
You could watch a Titan Seahawks game and be fully invested.
If I told you right now the season kicks off
tonight with Titan Seahawks, you'd be like, oh Gino Smith
will Levis, If I told you tonight, can you know

(34:21):
you're gonna watch the uh the Marlins play the Red
Not a chance I give you that.

Speaker 1 (34:26):
I'm never I'll never debate that. When it comes to
base you'll.

Speaker 3 (34:29):
Try to sell you your team bro Cruise, and I'll
be like, no, no, no, my cell here, let's make
it clear was you're watching greatness and history in the making.
And if you don't care about greatness, then I have
to question your your fandom. I have to question what
you're into. It's like, you don't need to be a
Dodgers fan to appreciate what some people, some players transcend sports.

(34:49):
You don't have to be a Dodgers guy who appreciate
show hey, or a Yankees fan who appreciate Judge.

Speaker 1 (34:53):
What these dudes are doing are once in a lifetime
sort of things.

Speaker 3 (34:57):
I think a lot of guys right now are sadly
coming to the realization that at one point in the
life they were baseball.

Speaker 1 (35:04):
They were talking to some girl like, where'd she go?
She ghosted me?

Speaker 4 (35:09):
NFL showed up some better. Dude, Oh they're baseball. I've
been baseball.

Speaker 1 (35:16):
Have you ever been baseball? It gives you character? Have
you ever been baseball player?

Speaker 7 (35:19):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (35:20):
Dude, I think, and then I saw her with football
on social media God, and I was like, oh my goodness,
she's having so much fun on her Instagram story with
with football.

Speaker 1 (35:29):
And it's just a matter of opinion.

Speaker 3 (35:30):
Yeah, So again, if you have any thoughts, do you
turn the page on baseball automatically? I'm saying that proves
you're not really that big of a fan in your team.
Stinks eight one seven seven five year old nine.

Speaker 1 (35:41):
There's room for both.

Speaker 3 (35:42):
Enjoy both eight eight one seven seven five year old
nine and of course hit us up at Covino and
rich and speaking of the NFL, Speaking of football, we
do this on Tuesdays on a regular time slot.

Speaker 1 (35:55):

Speaker 3 (35:57):
So Showtime a Home stops by and we do multiple

Speaker 1 (36:04):
What's a swig crisis the swaggy?

Speaker 3 (36:07):
It makes you uh A twelve turns out to football,
It's it's a stainless steel water bottle with Fox Sports
Radio Cavino on Riches logo, No doubt we're gonna get
to that. Plus the hardest NFL team to assess a
week out? What team confuses the hell out of you?
We're gonna get to that, and we aren't for Colin,
So I want to say, play great analogy.

Speaker 1 (36:25):
On the tortilla girl. No you like that baseball football
being a girl's at a ball. Gott to bring analogies
when you're filling in for the show.

Quick, knowledgeable and funny, opinionated. What what are you doing?
We were interrupting our promo.

Speaker 7 (37:04):
Yeah, you wasn't talking about you.

Speaker 6 (37:06):
You took those clips totally of context.

Speaker 1 (37:08):
Oh yeah, well after this promo, I'm gonna take you

Speaker 1 (37:21):

every Wednesday? Danny g it's time for Midweek Major.

Speaker 7 (37:34):
Let's go Covino and Rich get you over the middle
of the week mid Week Major. I love that we
throw sports and pop culture headlines and topics at the
fellas and it's like the kids say, that's so. We
definitely seeing our score Midweek Major.

Speaker 2 (37:58):
Remix because we got give spot at least a couple
of minutes here and when you hear these horns hit.
By the way, we do this every Wednesday afternoon on
our normal time slot.

Speaker 1 (38:07):
That means you have made it to the middle of
the week.

Speaker 2 (38:10):
Before we hand things over to the number one and
only host of this segment, we'd like to roll these
two big red Love dice to see which host gets
to have the first take.

Speaker 4 (38:18):
That's not big Red Love dice. They're your big red Love.
I feel like you use these in your bedroom.

Speaker 1 (38:23):
Very sticky.

Speaker 4 (38:24):
I used alsol on them doing I rolled a seven,
I rolled a three. You get you get first, all.

Speaker 2 (38:30):
Right, And now, ladies and gentlemen, the most famous person
from Scotch Plains, New Jersey besides Judy Bloom.

Speaker 1 (38:39):
Hey, guys, do spot Music gives you the real headlines.
These are the ridiculous stories. These are the real stories.
Since Comino's going first, I gotta start with the story.
It's it's everywhere. So Steve Camino and a Rod have
one thing in common, but just one thing, and you
can't we kiss ourselves in the mirror. No, you can't.
You can't pry them away from every Yankee game.

Speaker 4 (39:01):
So Jacqueline Cordero, whose Arod's girlfriend, posted a picture of
her in a sexy black dress with the caption date night.
The very next post in the story was a picture
of her and a Rod sitting on a dock looking
at a beautiful sunset, but in the foreground was an
iPad with the Yankee Game on playing the Nationals.

Speaker 1 (39:18):
That's my guy.

Speaker 4 (39:19):
So fancy fans were laying into a Rod like, I mean,
you got to respect him for this being his idea
of a quote ideal date night. But like so many
people are out of him midweek or major it's it's
majorly awesome.

Speaker 1 (39:31):
In my opinion, He's slaying it on every level.

Speaker 4 (39:33):
He's taking in the sun, he's hanging out with his
beautiful girlfriend, he's watching the game, probably having a drink.

Speaker 1 (39:39):
He's living his life.

Speaker 3 (39:40):
And I respect this so much because guess what, he
loves the game and that's what.

Speaker 1 (39:45):
He does for a living.

Speaker 3 (39:46):
It always bothered me we talked about the Jeter blueprint.
It always bothered me that he was the guy no no, no, no,
no everything everything you're saying, you bozone, I rolled the dice.

Speaker 1 (39:56):
I won, give me my moment. It always bothered me
that Jeter said when the season was over, when the
game was over, he sort of left it on the field.

Speaker 3 (40:05):
He wasn't watching baseball all the time. And it's like, well,
how much do you really love baseball?

Speaker 7 (40:10):
Then?

Speaker 1 (40:10):
Aron loves baseball. That's why he cheated, because he cared
that much. He's loved it more than anybody. So so
it's the truth.

Speaker 3 (40:20):
He wanted to be the best, that bad that he
sacrificed his own reputation to be the best.

Speaker 1 (40:25):
I love baseball. I think I could do multiple things, multitask,
be at a dinner, hangout, and still have my ear
to the game and enjoy myself.

Speaker 3 (40:35):
He's Alex Rodriguez. He loves the game more than you.
How could you be surprised? I respect it. This is
the weakest thing on Planet Earth. I get my turn.
Will your mom say in the eighties, gag me with
a spoon? Remember that phrase?

Speaker 1 (40:52):
He must be on queludes, this is ridiculous. Honestly, it
bothers me when Covino doesn't.

Speaker 9 (40:59):
This is over.

Speaker 1 (41:00):
Give it a rest.

Speaker 3 (41:01):
There's one hundred and sixty two games. It's not seventeen
Sundays that we need to be zoned in. Honestly, it's
almost embarrassing, you know. Maybe that's why Jenny Low left him.
Guy loves the game Possible. I think it's it's cool
for him. It's still what he does.

Speaker 1 (41:17):
By the way, I like Aaron. I think he's great.

Speaker 3 (41:20):
I think a lot of people clown on him for
no reason, but this is a reason I want to
clown on him, like, dude, you're what are you doing?

Speaker 2 (41:27):
What?

Speaker 10 (41:27):
I love?

Speaker 7 (41:28):
Well?

Speaker 1 (41:28):
Worried about Glaber Torres? Is that bat and his beautiful
girl friend joys it? Dude? All right? All right? Kevin
Burkhardt KB, We love KB. Friend of the show.

Speaker 4 (41:39):
Part of the premiere lineup of the NFL and Fox
broadcasting team is starting to get a taste of what
it's like sharing.

Speaker 1 (41:44):
The broadcast with, of course, the goat. Tom Brady. He
appeared on the Calm Down Podcast with Aaron Andrews and
Chris A. Thompson.

Speaker 4 (41:51):
Was asked about his new coworkers. He said, it's like
a circus when you're walking with Tom. Brady said it
took him like an extra like a extra hour or
so just to get from the green room down to
the field. Said everyone's coming up to Brady, wants to
talk to him, taking photos with him, you know. He
said he sees the positive of it. He thinks, like,
you know, getting this insight from players that want to
talk to Brady will be cool. But he also said

(42:14):
Brady is very humble and willing to accept feedback from Burkhart,
So Midwaker Major.

Speaker 3 (42:19):
I think it's a major story because these are the
guys that we're gonna be watching dynamic duo, Burkhart and Brady.
I think Kevin Burkhart is the perfect guy to be
alongside Tom Brady because we worked with Kevin Burkhardt at
S and Y. We did our first TV appearance with
Kevin Burkhart really good. Have you ever met rich a
guy with more swag who is more let's say, Mike

(42:43):
sure about himself than Kevin Burkhart, and you need a
guy like that to deal with the sort of attention
yeah and circus like atmosphere that Tom Brady's gonna get,
because you know, Kevin could hold his own in this atmosphere.

Speaker 1 (42:58):
Kevin Burkhart working with Tom Brady's like Travis Kelsey.

Speaker 3 (43:00):
Dating Taylor Swift. It's attention that you've never seen on
that level. Kevin Becart, it's a special person to deal
with it. Kevin Burkhart, Firs. His whole life probably gets
a bunch of like, oh hey keV, Hey, keV. Now Kevin,
he's got that silver fox. Then going on through he
is being stopped everywhere, right, So hey, I wish them well.
I'm curiously he'll see how they sound in the booth
because I think Kevin's the best.

Speaker 4 (43:20):
Netflix released their trailer for the upcoming docu series Starting five.
I don't know if you guys have heard about this,
which will follow the in season lives of five NBA stars.
They announced the stars as well. It'll be Jimmy Butler,
Anthony Edwards, Demonte Simonis, Jason Tatum, and of course Daddy himself,
Lebron James. Series will premiere Wednesday, October ninth to coincide

(43:43):
with the start of NBA training camps. Of course, following
the footsteps of quarterback and receiver midweeker Major majorly major.

Speaker 1 (43:51):
You had me at Butler and Edwards.

Speaker 3 (43:53):
Edward's controversial, especially with what he's said recently old players
not having skills.

Speaker 1 (43:59):
He's out spoken. Then you said Lebron James, the guy
you're not allowed to call daddy on the court. That's major, dude,
And NBA is great at creating superstars.

Speaker 3 (44:11):
Now we get to know him on a deeper level.
I think this is really cool. It's great for the NBA,
great for basketball everything he said. I agree, it's it's
major major because again, if you're if you're into the NBA,
this will only pull you in more to the great storylines.
And again, because I watch Receiver, there are players that
like I mean, for instance, I'm on Ross Saint Brown.
I followed him as a player, but now I feel

(44:32):
like I'm invested in him because fact I really liked
his story and his family and everything. So I think
you're gonna get a great glimpse into five superstars. So NBA,
I love that they're on board with Netflix.

Speaker 4 (44:41):
Very cool move, all right, I guess when you land
a one hundred million dollar contract for your podcast, it
attracts big guests. So the Kelsey Bros Welcome Welcome to
Adam Sandler this week as part of the season premiere.

Speaker 1 (44:52):
The Saying Body of the Rights Podcasts.

Speaker 4 (44:55):
As you know, Saidlor, I think revealed last week we
talked about it that Travis will be making a cameo
and the upcoming Happy Gilmore sequel. Well, Sandlor of course
used his time to gush about his love of Taylor Swift.

Speaker 1 (45:06):
Huge in his household. His kids love it, and he's.

Speaker 4 (45:09):
Actually admitted that he's afraid to talk to Taylor Swift
because he doesn't want to make himself seem like a
for his family seem like idiots. But he talked about
how much he loves the relationship between Travis and Taylor
like everybody. So I guess he's securing an invite to
the possible upcoming wedding. Who knows midwger Major.

Speaker 1 (45:25):
I heard Sandler said Taylor Swift so hot, too touch
to Heini, I think this is I want to say Major,
it's more of a mid story.

Speaker 3 (45:37):
I just like Adam Sandler, so hey, props to him,
and I'm glad that Kelsey's involved. I like the whole deal,
so it's not that juicy of a story. So I'll
say mid yeah, I'll say I love the mutual respect
and it's funny. Just you know, when you're a dad
and you got daughters, it's hard to not be like, yeah,
Taylor Swift, that's Adam Sandler.

Speaker 1 (45:55):
I mean it's pretty well. Ni, thank you, spine Key Music.
Let's go to Trip in Vegas. Hey, Trip, what's up?

Speaker 5 (46:02):
Gentlemen?

Speaker 4 (46:03):
Yo?

Speaker 5 (46:04):
I got a couple almost stay away from the sports
and the music, but I was thinking, how about Charlie Murphy, Oh,
come to mine? Uh, Chadwick Moosemanow and then my last
one would be anybody in the Leaf family, Bruce Lee,
Brandon Lee.

Speaker 1 (46:21):
Oh maybe yeah for real.

Speaker 3 (46:23):
And Charlie Murphy was only fifty seven, but he really
was hitting his stride, becoming his own guy. I mean,
he had been his own guy for a minute by
the time he died. But you didn't know what was
next for Charlie Murphy, you know what I mean, Like
he always lived in Eddie's shadow, but with all the
Chappelle stuff, we had him on our show a few times,
just a naturally funny dude, and can you know as

(46:44):
far as comics, GON don't want to take answers. There's
so many because a lot of comics are troubled, and
unfortunately drugs and stuff enter that comedy world quite a bit.

Speaker 1 (46:52):
Yeah, but.

Speaker 3 (46:55):
Mitch Hedberg was one of my favorite stand up comics.
Who knows what he could have been?

Speaker 4 (46:59):
You know.

Speaker 1 (46:59):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (46:59):
Bruce Sleep, by the way, was thirty two or thirty
three if I'm not mistaken.

Speaker 1 (47:03):
And thirty two I.

Speaker 3 (47:04):
Mean two youngest even though they weren't young guys, they
were still young in the big picture. In the last
couple of years we lost Bob Saggett and Norm McDonald,
two guys that I very much enjoyed. Mitch Hedberg was
thirty seven. If you don't know Mitch Hedberg's comedy, we
suggest you definitely.

Speaker 1 (47:21):
Look it up.

Speaker 3 (47:21):
Some of some of the stupidest but funniest stuff. They're
just double one liners, hilarious. He was great man all right.
Back to the Phones eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox,
Gone Too Soon?

Speaker 1 (47:32):
Robert, what's up? Robin Queens? Hey?

Speaker 9 (47:34):
Rob, Hey, Hey, guys, how you doing?

Speaker 7 (47:37):
Man?

Speaker 9 (47:37):
Listening to you guys?

Speaker 1 (47:38):
Thank you?

Speaker 9 (47:40):
Man? I had three man two Rivis, Phoenix and Alijah
about the superstars.

Speaker 3 (47:47):
You know, I was, I was looking up the Alia
stuff recently because I work on the two thousands channel
at Serious XM, and I was like, what was the
story again? They they got on a plane on a
video shoot and everyone was saying, the plane is too heavy,
we need to redistribute, and everyone had the Unfortunately, people
she was with arrogantly we were.

Speaker 2 (48:07):
Like, n nah, fly here makeup costumes and everything from
the video shoot. They were way overloaded and to think
just too much weight on the plane.

Speaker 3 (48:15):
She was only twenty two years old, and just be honest,
some arrogant person, probably part of the crew that was
like no, no fly anyway, and the pilot didn't have
the experience.

Speaker 1 (48:25):
This is a very terrible story.

Speaker 2 (48:26):
So many in music. I thought he was calm from
Queen's I thought for sure he was going to say Biggie.
Obviously Biggie and Tupac jump into this conversation immediately.

Speaker 1 (48:36):
Dude, they were so young. Yeah, there's tons just off
the top of my head as far as the rap world.

Speaker 3 (48:42):
Not only so young when they died Danny G but
so young when they started to have you know that
sort of catalog.

Speaker 2 (48:48):
And you know, because I'm West Coast, you would think
I would say Tupac had more to still offers. But
he had so much in the can he just recorded.
He recorded as many songs as the amount of blunt
he smoked in his life. He had so many songs.

Speaker 3 (49:03):
Me, how old do you think he was rich when
he died Tupac? No, No, Biggie, I was No. Eight shocking,
twenty eight to twenty five, twenty four? Wow, yeah, I
knew it was right around twenty THO.

Speaker 1 (49:15):
Think about his catalog and he's only twenty four years old.

Speaker 2 (49:19):
See Calvino. That's what I was gonna say. Biggie recorded
a lot too, but not as much as Tupac. Yeah,
so so much came out later from from Pac, the
stuff his mom would allow to be released in some
underground But Biggie, I feel like there was so much
more we could have heard on Wax, and especially if
he had separated from Puffy, we probably would have got

(49:40):
the real, unfiltered Biggie.

Speaker 3 (49:43):
Tupac was twenty five dominated movies music. That's crazy, like
get my mind, Like Tupac did so much. That's what
I'm saying, because these guys are larger than life, and
they're sort of immortalized in this way, right, you know,
we know them as heroes and icons, so they're older
in our mind, I guess, and they accomplished so much

(50:04):
in this little time. From this perspective, you're like twenty
fuck you when you think of when you think of
some of the legends you just mentioned, right, Yeah, when
you think of some of the legends, Tupac Biggie out there,
Kirk Cobain in there, and you know.

Speaker 1 (50:21):
Some mother Rocks is part of the twenty seven club.
You know, do you think.

Speaker 3 (50:27):
Nowadays they'd be these respected legends or did their legend
because they died young? It sort of made them larger
than life. Like do you think Tupac, m Biggie, Danny
g would have the reputation of like a Snoop and
a Drake now where for sure they just respected veterans.

Speaker 1 (50:41):
Yeah, they'd be like dre two of the two more icons.

Speaker 3 (50:44):
And Nirvana. Here's an interesting thought. Would the Foo Fighters exist?
Would Dave Grohl have eventually done his own thing, or
would we have just had decades of Nirvana? Would Foo
Fighter songs have been Nirvana?

Speaker 2 (50:57):
Songs and you guys are from the East Coast. Another
elder statesman of hip hop that we lost way too young,
jam Master J from One DMC. That band was never
the same easy e here on the West Coast. We
lost him at the age of thirty, and that was
the reason why NWA never truly was able to come
back together.

Speaker 3 (51:17):
Another thirty year old artist, Lisa Lefty Lopez. Gotta say it,
brought up Richie Valence. Got to bring up Selena. I've
showed my daughter a lot of these movies like LaBamba
and Selena. She's like, Dad, why are you doing this
to me? I know she was only Selena is twenty
three years old. Would there be a j LO without Selena?

Speaker 7 (51:38):
Oh?

Speaker 2 (51:38):
In our kids, they lost Nipsey Hustle, Juice World, mac Miller.

Speaker 1 (51:42):
Mac Miller was a big one.

Speaker 4 (51:44):
Yeah, I mean, the list goes on when it comes
to hip hop pop. Smoke was only twenty and that
guy was an ascending star.

Speaker 3 (51:49):
Crazy, Yeah, to see how much they did in that
little amount of time, like shooting stars.

Speaker 1 (51:54):
Let me pull back to the sports world for a second.

Speaker 3 (51:56):
If you're a big baseball fan, the terribly tragic remember
the the boating accident. Marlin's pitcher Jose Fernandez was like
a young, say young type of guy that you looked
at him as like yo, yank, who's gonna get the Yankees,
you know, Dodgers, like because you knew that his star
was only on the rise and he was one hundred
percent going to be the next level, say young type

(52:17):
of guy Jose Fernandez who hit the home run the
next game, like Gordon or something. No, it was like
right to lead off the game. Yeah, and everyone cried,
oh who was that?

Speaker 1 (52:28):
Let us know?

Speaker 3 (52:29):
Anyway, gone too soon? Back to the phones eight seven,
seven ninety nine on Fox think of the twenty seven
it was the oh nice nice pool. Yeah, that was
a really big moment.

Speaker 1 (52:44):
I only know. I guess they played the Mets, and
I remember being like, oh, I was was I was?
I was actually like that's nice. I was rooting for it.
I just felt sure you were wrong, that's really it.
I don't blame you.

Speaker 3 (52:56):
We mentioned the twenty seven club a few times, and
there's a lot of names on that list, Jimmy Hendrix,
Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison, we already mentioned Kurt Cobain, Amy
Winehouse I believe was twenty seven years old.

Speaker 1 (53:14):
She was yeah, right, so.

Speaker 3 (53:19):
Wow, and they were already at Murphy very legendary status.
You think Brittany Murphy was murdered? Do you ever see
that conspiracy?

Speaker 1 (53:25):
Yeah, it's it's murky.

Speaker 3 (53:27):
Right as you covid being that here at Fox Sports Radio.
I bet my bottom dollar that no one knows more
about boxing than you. Give me a boxer that left
us too soon. I'm sorry to put you on the spot,
but I'd imagine there's boxers that are gone. Right, that's
a good one.

Speaker 1 (53:44):
Think about that. We'll say what's up to Dan and
Missouri and then we'll move on. It'll bit what's up Dan? Hey?

Speaker 7 (53:49):
Dan?

Speaker 1 (53:51):
Dary boy?

Speaker 5 (53:52):
Have you mentioned Payne Stewart?

Speaker 1 (53:55):
Payne Stewart? Was that a Plaine thing as well?

Speaker 7 (53:59):
Right?

Speaker 1 (53:59):
It was? I hate to soll morbid, but wasn't the
story that everyone lost oxygen enough where the plane was
still in the air, but everyone had gone unconscious so
that the plane just eventually crashed, which is sounds like
the most awful way, right, terrible. Sorry to bring the
mood down a little bit. Has anybody mentioned I've been waiting,

(54:21):
I don't think so. Have we mentioned Kobe Bryant. My goodness,
how is that not? No, that was the first one
I thought of.

Speaker 2 (54:28):
Well, I thought a listener would bring it up in
our pre show meeting. I wrote it down. He had
just come off winning what was it an Oscar Yes for.

Speaker 1 (54:36):
The kids, Yes, short kids film, which was so sweet.
It is really really seemed like he had found himself truly. Yeah, yeah,
that one is one. I still can't believe it.

Speaker 3 (54:46):
It's a really crappy list, it really is. And I
think the older we're getting and our kids are getting older,
it really puts it. It's a prospective conversation for me.
It really is, because again, we view these people as
larger than life, never really absorbing from this perspective.

Speaker 1 (55:02):
How young they were. Paul Walker's of the world, you know, Yeah,
it's kind of nuts. Rich.

Speaker 3 (55:08):
The only guy that comes to mind for me as
a car crash, Well, dude, Macho Camacho was also relatively
young when he was dude he was killed, Hector Camacho
Salvador Sanchez. Is that what he was going to say?
Let's go to market, Let's go to the phones.

Speaker 1 (55:23):
Hey, what's up? Hey, Marcus and Seattle.

Speaker 10 (55:26):
Guys, man, we're missing the biggest one, and that is
a musician that we found out he was dead on
Monday Night football. And that's John Lennon getting murdered at
forty years old.

Speaker 1 (55:37):
Can I tell you something, dude.

Speaker 3 (55:38):
I know you might not believe this because it sounds
unbelievable and it's going to date me. It's one of
my earliest memories, dude, it really is. I remember being
a little kid and just your your I mean everybody's
family or parents were huge fans of the Beatles, right,
So when my mom got this news from the local
news channel, I.

Speaker 1 (55:58):
Remember her, Oh yeah, he was devastated, and I remember
being like, whoa what Yoda dude from the Beatles? Wow?
So I must have been what four years old? I
was in nineteen eighty, right.

Speaker 2 (56:08):
Yeah, so I had it was like I saw footage
of people just sobbing when it was announced that Elvis
had passed away.

Speaker 1 (56:15):
How old was Elvis? By the way, he was younger
than we think.

Speaker 4 (56:18):
I believe he was like forty three. Still, yeah, that
seems insane. You tell me Elvis still alive today? Early
took care. I'm in my early forties. You tell me,
Elvis Presley. I look at that old like old fat Elvis. Yeah,
I thought he was like fifty forty two.

Speaker 1 (56:34):
Bro, that's crazy. That was crazy, man. He lived like
so much life.

Speaker 3 (56:38):
I probably could have figured out by doing the math,
like when did he come on the scene. But Manzie,
let me ask you, when you think of old Elvis,
are you, even though you might have been able to
do the math, don't you think he looked fifty something?

Speaker 1 (56:49):
Yeah? He did not look like the forties of today.
A lot of people looked older back then.

Speaker 10 (56:53):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (56:54):
I like your coworkers like forties, they look older.

Speaker 10 (56:57):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (56:58):
I just think the forties of today a lot younger
than the forties of back then. Lane Staley of Allison
Chains was thirty four.

Speaker 3 (57:05):
I believe he died on the same day as not
the same day, the same date, April fifth, as a
Kurt Copain, right, Yeah, but he was only thirty four.
Dime Bag, Darryl, lots of rock stars.

Speaker 1 (57:18):
It's really a sad list.

Speaker 3 (57:19):
It's amazing though when we talk about it, how many
people there are, all these people that left their mark
in such a little amount of time. Can I give
you a category we haven't touched because it would start
a whole separate conversation We don't have time for that.

Speaker 1 (57:32):
We all got two hours. Have you add wrestlers to
this list?

Speaker 3 (57:37):
Macho man, Ultimate War, mister Perfect, Ravishing, Rick Rude, Oh
and hard Like you think of all like if you
were a kid that like wrestling when you were a youngster.

Speaker 1 (57:46):
They all died like when they were like thirty, forty fifty.

Speaker 3 (57:49):
Yeah, dude, the ones that you're the ones that you're
thinking of, because I know you probably think of like
Ravishing Rick Rude, mister Perfect.

Speaker 1 (57:55):
How about the story of devon Erics. She realized they
were all younger than you are. Now they're all like forty.

Speaker 3 (58:00):
That's what's like, I said, The perspective is a little
different when that comes to my from one that comes
to my from me because I used to think he
was the coolest wrestler. Kurt Headache, mister Perfect, I'm pretty sure. Yeah,
Kurt Hennick died when he was forty four years old. Wow,
they seem so old to us because we were children.

Speaker 1 (58:20):
So but about like half of the cast of Glee, huh.

Speaker 4 (58:26):
They say, it's it's like a curse sort of thing, right, Yeah,
take this back to sports really quick, Coved.

Speaker 2 (58:32):
You know, I was thinking Walter Payton, Derek Thomas, Eric Turner,
Lyle Alzado. There's so many NFL players from back in
the day that we lost too young.

Speaker 4 (58:43):
Yeah, Rich Rich Uh, Briella you know her, right, Brielle.
Bri Who Brielle like the cheese? Yeah, no, our Brielle.
Yeah yeah, she said, Princess Die. I want to bring
that up, Princess Diana.

Speaker 3 (58:56):
Dude, I'll I'll date myself. I was a freshman in
college when that happened, and I remember because I remember
people are crying and I'm trying to drink like cheap
beer out of a cake freshman years, Like it was
my first week of college, and I remember being like,
what's everyone all worried about? It was, honestly only like
a few of the girls were in front of the TV,
like crying about him, like what the Princess Diana?

Speaker 1 (59:15):
Oh man? And I remember Elton John did the remix.

Speaker 3 (59:18):
You know what, though, you know, when MONSI brought up
Kobe Bryant, it makes you think from the standpoint of
how his teammates and his peers all had the same
feeling and thought of man, I thought we were going
to grow old together.

Speaker 1 (59:35):
Hero in Seattle, Hey man, long.

Speaker 9 (59:37):
Time, long time, test time, long time guys. Hey, first time,
long time man, big fan, guys. I love Monty Man.
She always nicked my day when she tough.

Speaker 1 (59:49):
Back off. We love manzi Ya.

Speaker 9 (59:52):
Hey Man Martel the King guys. Uh, people guess we're
talking about politics a little bit before the break man.
But Macha the King, when people don't know that he
left when he was thirty nine.

Speaker 1 (01:00:05):
That's a wild thought. To the MLK junior, it's a
really good one. It was the anniversary of I Have
a Dream speech. What was it yesterday?

Speaker 3 (01:00:12):
Yeah, I'm so glad he brought that up too, because
there's something about, like we said, we know about these
icons when we're kids or in some ways, you know,
even maybe we're the same age as some of these
people we've spoken of, we still look up to them.

Speaker 1 (01:00:24):
So to think that he was only thirty nine years old,
this is crazy.

Speaker 4 (01:00:27):
You know what?

Speaker 3 (01:00:28):
They mentioned this in the air documentary that the movie
air about Michael Jordan. Yeah, George Traveling was the coach
of Villanova. I believe he was on standby that day
to help with security. He asked doctor King, Hey, doctor
King ke that speech and he handed him the copy
do you know that fun fact that George traveling.

Speaker 1 (01:00:46):
Yeah, yeah, College, I learned it from the movie.

Speaker 3 (01:00:49):
College basketball coach in his possession for years had the
copy of the I Have a Dream speech, which is like,
what a wild story that is. Yep, you know what
we're running late. Let's go to Monsie now for an
up day. What's all la Manzi?

Speaker 7 (01:01:01):
Oh?

Speaker 1 (01:01:02):
Wow, breaking news literally reading it from my watch. Wow,
the forty nine ers, Yeah, and wide receiver brand and
Iyuk have agreed on a four year, one hundred and
twenty million dollar contract extension. Wow, six million in garon tease.

Speaker 3 (01:01:18):
That's the right amount of money to thirty million year
because he's not justin Jeffershat, He's not Jamar Chase.

Speaker 1 (01:01:23):
What he'll get.

Speaker 8 (01:01:24):
Exactly that is perfect, perfect time, literally reading it from
my watch, right, how alright?

Speaker 1 (01:01:29):
Get in on that head in on that forty nine
ers minus three and a half. It's going to be
minus four by the time you're done talking. Nice where
you start the Labor day weekend? Man?

Speaker 7 (01:01:38):
I know?

Speaker 1 (01:01:38):
So one holdout done, another holdout still happening. Bengals wide
receiver Jamar Chase was at practice but did not participate
for the second straight date.

Speaker 3 (01:01:47):
Quick reminder before we talk about IU huge announcement. Our
show is going to be broadcasting live for the week
of Tiger Sooners the next next month, on Friday afternoon,
September twenty seventh, so this is your invite.

Speaker 1 (01:01:59):
Will be at the new Auburn location for Graduate Hotels,
located at two O two West Magnolia Avenue in Auburn, Alabama.
So join us for live broadcast, drinks, games and prizes. Again,
make note September twenty seventh at Graduate in Auburn. We
will be there and we will be hanging afterwards, so
hope to see you there. Covino and Rich.

Speaker 3 (01:02:20):
Well that I'm trying to find just the right music
to go along with my Brandon I post all my
Instagram story. Hold on while you find that music. Okay,
post that post that, Rich Davis At Covino and Rich,
We're not gonna have time to talk about Randy E.
Rose arena, so won't talk about that tomorrow.

Speaker 1 (01:02:40):
Randy E. Rose Arena. Let's just say.

Speaker 3 (01:02:42):
Fratnizing in the visiting team's locker rooms. You know, buddy
chummy with the opposing team. Does it matter that he
was a five year plus player on that team, and
it was a trade that happened a month ago.

Speaker 1 (01:02:55):
I think it does matter.

Speaker 3 (01:02:56):
We'll discuss that tomorrow because we're sort of stacked on
over promised right after the show.

Speaker 1 (01:03:01):
How do you feel man as it sinks in? I'm
fan Ronzi literally made the announcement off of her watch.

Speaker 7 (01:03:09):
Right.

Speaker 3 (01:03:09):
That was kind of cool, Monzie. That might have been
the quickest breaking news you've ever done.

Speaker 1 (01:03:15):
In your career.

Speaker 3 (01:03:16):
Maybe no, it was quite exciting, and you know, as
a Niners fan, I urge you. I'm not telling you,
as Robin Parker says, I'm not telling you who to
bet on. I'm just telling you what I'm betting on. Right,
Niners are minus three and a half Monday Night against
the Jets. Unless you have some ridiculous faith that Aaron
Rodgers and the Jets are going to put this together

(01:03:37):
week one, which I don't believe it. I think the
Jets are a possible playoff team week one in the
Bay Area Monday Night football, it's three and a half.

Speaker 1 (01:03:46):
Areu's done.

Speaker 3 (01:03:47):
I would not be shocked if by week's end the
Trent Williams deal has done as well. And if that's
the case, I think it goes to four and a
half five if you could get Niners minus three and
a half and if you want by a half a point,
make it three. Dude, it is holiday weekend, and what
player doesn't want to have this result so they could
relax throughout the holiday time.

Speaker 1 (01:04:07):
It sounds corny, but you don't think these dudes want
to hit the beach, have some drinks, have a cookout,
wrap up the summer with the peace of mind knowing
it's finished. That's why we got this announcement.

Speaker 3 (01:04:16):
I know that they're different, as they're in that competitive
mode right now, but I'll be honest, I think in
our career, Covino and I one time signed the contract.
I'm pretty certain like the week going into like a
big holiday week. No, it was, and I remember thinking,
like per it felt fantastic, felt like so you're saying,

(01:04:36):
sign on the dotted line. Yeah, now it's a holiday week, yo,
Trent Williams, he's next tomorrow. Get it done, John Lynch,
you're listening to me, John Lynch. That's our prediction, Yo, John,
Do I need to text your gel Yo? Text John Lynch,
get this done, sucker. So let's get this done. And
then I think the forty nine ers have zero excuses
not to be back where they were last year. And

(01:04:57):
if they can't cross that finish line and win a
Super Bowl with this team intact having to pay party
next year.

Speaker 8 (01:05:04):
This is it.

Speaker 1 (01:05:05):
This is the window. Let's go getting ready for some football. Yeah,
I have a big week.

Speaker 3 (01:05:11):
I realized yesterday when Monsey made that announcement live on
our show. You see how hyped you got? No, I
commented on our own Instagram and TikTok and Twitter post.

Speaker 1 (01:05:21):
I got crazy eyes. You think you think we just
made that up. No, No, but your maniac.

Speaker 3 (01:05:27):
I looked at myself and I thought, like, yo, he's
got a football problem. That's just supposed to show you
how how unaware you are. I'm completely unaware that when
she made the announcement that the Niners sealed the deal
with Ayuk, I had crazy eyes.

Speaker 1 (01:05:44):
I looked like a maniac.

Speaker 3 (01:05:45):
You could see the clip for yourself at Covin o
Rich at Fox Sports Radio. But hey, listen, it was
just the next piece of the puzzle for the forty
nine ers. And let's be honest, I'm taking myself out
of fandom for a second and being real. This is
the shot to quote, you only got one shot because
next year you have to pay Rock Party.

Speaker 1 (01:06:07):
I don't know if they'll pay Rock Party.

Speaker 3 (01:06:09):
But as of right now, the simple fact is you
have everyone under contract and you're gonna be able to
afford Trent Williams. That will work out, but next year
that party's over, buddies, So the forty nine ers need
to win. Now we keep joking about the.

Speaker 1 (01:06:23):
Window like, oh, last year, No, it's now, won't never.
The forty nine ers need to win right now. You
said that in the past two years. I'm just letting
you know, but now is like, oh but now now now,
I mean now now now, I mean it. I swear
to you he said that the last two years, and
I agree. I mean it's that window get smaller and smaller.
That's really what it is.

Speaker 3 (01:06:44):
You and I we're talking about how whether it's Brandon I,
Trent Williams now or on other teams when you saw
some holdouts and you're seeing that with Jamar Chase now
and players that won't report, won't play, won't dress until
they get what they want, And there seems to be
how come this tactic only works in sports? How come

(01:07:06):
it wouldn't work here because this sounds great. I think
it would work if I'd be honest that if you
know your value, you're that valuable. I mean, if you
are the face of a network or the star player
of a team, you've seen it work. It's you just
have to know your own value.

Speaker 2 (01:07:23):
Wait, but Ayuk is not the face of your franchise.
In factor Itch, you've gone through the range of emotions yourself.
Remember when you were frustrated with you colding out, you
said we don't need him.

Speaker 1 (01:07:34):
By I think they would have been fine without him.

Speaker 3 (01:07:38):
I think now they secured, Like now there's no excuse,
like there would have been an excuse like, well you
lost your long threat with Ayuk and now that you
think you guys would have regretted we were letting him go.
It would have took a slight step backwards. But now
you got Ayuk and if he he's motivated to play us.
Saw him on a Zoom call yesterday with John Lynch
and they were joking like yo, man, you're expensive, and

(01:08:00):
he's like, Yola, I'm gonna I'm gonna prove it to
you that I'm worth every penny and I you because
all fired up, got his niners hat on, but Cavino
and I and Danny we were talking about how in
twenty twenty four all the antics that seem to have
to go along with getting what you want, unfollowing your team,
talking to other teams, creating a social media.

Speaker 1 (01:08:20):
Buzz of oh he's done.

Speaker 3 (01:08:23):
I don't know, man, I think family members are agents
or people drop little little seeds, little breadcrumbs, and it
really is theater. It is theater, and you're watching this
player bro hug his old teammates. At one point, McCaffrey
referred to him as former teammate, like telling you it's
all theater now, it's all yeah for show. I got

(01:08:44):
to take it backpack. Yeah, let's go through the timeline.
But'll be how it works again. We're calling it the
new industry standard. It's sort of like, yeah, you pout
just to make your point. To get what you want,
you have to go through these motions and it all
starts with sometimes family members. We've seen this, right, We've
seen family members. Brandon Ayuk's girlfriend said this might be
the last day we touched foot on Levis Stadium because

(01:09:08):
we might not be out here next year. Now, people like, WHOA,
what does that mean?

Speaker 1 (01:09:12):
Well, when our contract is up, I'm going to have
my girlfriend on the case. YEP. I hope you guys
really enjoyed Covino and Rich on the radio because their
contract's ending. The last time my boyfriend might have touched
that Michael phone. I hope you guys appreciated it.

Speaker 3 (01:09:28):
Now, I only had three catches for forty nine yards
in the Super Bowl. Not the best game, but he
was clearly not sold on remaining with the Niners. On
February thirteenth, he admitted that the Super Bowl loss was
the toughest of his career, and then when asked if
he's ready to run it back with the Niners, he said, well,
if it's the right move. Well, if it's the right move,

(01:09:51):
we gotta be vague. Taking ont to be vague, Gotta
be vague and cryptic. Okay, I just want to be
a champion. But now he pulls you back like, oh
he wants the right thing. Hmm, all you gotta play
this out, play these games, do this dance. Forty nine
Ers then announced we are not trading Brandon Ayuk forget
about what you're reading on social media. So then you
got the forty nine ers saying no, no, he's not

(01:10:12):
going anywhere. Then there were all the rumors.

Speaker 1 (01:10:15):
If you remember, right around the draft, ooh, the Niners
gonna deal Ayuk or Debo like it seems like they're
trying to unload one of them that came and went.
And then after that you remember Jaden Daniels, Commanders and
Ayuk they were talking hanging It was like wow, so
it was Washington in the mix. And then you started

(01:10:37):
hearing rumors about Cleveland and Pittsburgh. It's all the optics.
You unfollow your team, you make it seem like, hey,
it was corny. By the way, I hate that one.
I don't know why that one bothers me.

Speaker 2 (01:10:48):
The mone don't forget about all the Patriot reports rich
and how much money they were gonna throw out them.

Speaker 3 (01:10:53):
And then you realized then the Niners got a little
ace in their pocket when you realized he could have
got a ton of money from the Patriots. But he
doesn't really want to go play in New England in
the cold Northeast for a team that's gonna win three
or four games, or run it back with a team
that you know is gonna win over ten games. There's
such sports baby games. They really are like, honestly put

(01:11:14):
yourself in that position. Anybody listening, if you were like
on the fence about your next job move, are you
unfollowing your company? Are you unfollowing Fox Sports? Just to
make a cryptic speculation.

Speaker 1 (01:11:29):
I don't.

Speaker 3 (01:11:30):
I don't think you do that unless you're playing baby games.
That's why we're going over this. It's such the standard
nowadays that it almost loses impact in my opinion, because
you know it's coming. Anyone's negotiating, they're about to unfollow
their team to make a point. Do you remember what
he said to Jenden? Doesn't say anything when they were
like on lot, Instagram Live or something. They don't want
me back, So I like just perpetuate some sort of

(01:11:53):
fake narrative to get people chirping online via TikTok.

Speaker 1 (01:11:56):
He said, they don't want me back, and so yeah,
pull the heart strings. This is part of the formula.

Speaker 3 (01:12:04):
It's part of the ruse during the routine, during a podcast,
the pivot, I you said, if not a Niners uniform,
probably a Washington Commanders maybe.

Speaker 1 (01:12:14):
Then he put that out there, so and then what
does it turn into?

Speaker 3 (01:12:18):
Just back with the team he was with? And then
you're supposed to forget all of that. Now that he's
back on the team. It's just one big little game
that they play. We can't even go overall because it's
just I don't want to bore you, to be honest,
But remember then he requested a trade, and it's like, wow,
he wants out. He requested a trade but didn't want
to go to the Patriots and they weren't offering enough,

(01:12:38):
and the forty nine ers held that. You know, they
held more of the power in this situation.

Speaker 1 (01:12:42):
So here we are. He's on the Niners. I know
you're happy about it.

Speaker 3 (01:12:46):
If you want to see the announcement as it went down,
I read it off her watch.

Speaker 1 (01:12:52):
It was like straight off the press, breaking news. Off
the watch.

Speaker 3 (01:12:56):
He was reading the announcement, and you see Rich leap
out of his chair. You notice that hopped right out,
like whoa, he hops out of his chair waiting to
hear the announcement. It looked like such a claps his hands.
I see the white of his eyes, like I look
like such a nerd. Yeah, you could see it at
Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio.

Speaker 1 (01:13:19):
I'll say passionate. How about that? Nobody could question how
much we love football. I'm there.

Speaker 3 (01:13:26):
And we're getting ready for the start of the NFL season.
We're getting ready for the holiday weekend. But this story
that Kevin knows about to bring up, I do think
is polarized because some people are going to be like,
grow up, and other people can be like, this is
what's wrong with sports? Okay, Like we started, I started
seeing it in the NBA. I think you guys, Danny
g your NBA were the first people to really started

(01:13:46):
to buddy chummy and their pals. And because we saw
the difference. We knew the rivalries growing up, and we
knew that these opposing teams didn't like each other.

Speaker 1 (01:13:55):
And then all of a.

Speaker 3 (01:13:56):
Sudden, the NBA are like, well, why are they also friendly?
But social media changed the game and you're like, that's
just the way of the world. Then you've seen it
in football two Jersey Swamps and everything else. These guys
it's one big fraternity. So they're friends. And he's like, oh, well,
you accepted it. Well, if you're if you're if you're
a roughly forty something, you grew up and in the
eighties the players still didn't like each other. That's a

(01:14:19):
big part of this right, because you grew up and
you guys like Pete Rose and Mike Schmidt and social
media and free agency, all these things changed it right
because that might be your teammate in a year you
don't know.

Speaker 1 (01:14:28):
You saw like.

Speaker 3 (01:14:29):
Fights on the diamond and baseball specifically felt real, and
you would hear those stories about when they would have
an All Star game. Sometimes guys had a hard time
playing with each other because if they were, hey, you're
a National League.

Speaker 1 (01:14:43):
All Star, so am I? We hate each other. Now.

Speaker 3 (01:14:45):
I got to make this clear too, because I think
Randy A. Rose Arena is the coolest Randy since Randy Vallardi,
former Yankee and Oakland Athletic.

Speaker 1 (01:14:52):
Well, they were gonna say since Randy Watson.

Speaker 3 (01:14:54):
And I actually like, I love Randy Watson. Nobody cool
with an actor. What about I like Randy A Rose Arena.
I like that he played for Team Mexico. I like
his story, I like his fire. I hate when the
Yankees play this dude. He's like a big game player.

Speaker 1 (01:15:11):
But I don't agree with what he did.

Speaker 3 (01:15:14):
And I first tell everybody Aj Prazinski and John Pappelmann
talking about it on foul Territory and they're former players,
and they were like, Yo, we get it.

Speaker 1 (01:15:24):
But here's how you do it. If you have friends
on the other team, you meet at the batting cage,
you meet the tunnel, you meet at the tunnel, you
meet on the field.

Speaker 3 (01:15:32):
Hey man, I used to play with that guy. You
give him a bro hug, and you bs a little
bit on the field by the cage. Randia rose Raina
now plays for the Seattle Mariners. He was a Tampa
Bay Ray for a while. Keep that in mind. Yeah,
so this dude, when the game is over Mariners win

(01:15:54):
six to two, he goes over to the visiting team
locker room the Tampa Bay Rays to be buddy chummy,
paling around with his former teammates and his former manager
Kevin Cash. And he's in a clubhouse. And that just
rubs a lot of people the wrong way. I would
think if I was on the Mariners, like, Yo, where's
my guy Randy. Oh, your guy Randy is paling around

(01:16:17):
with his former team, Like that is weird to me.
That's buddy chummy fratnizing too far. It's one thing to
be buddy chummy by the cage, give your dude a
fist bump, But now.

Speaker 1 (01:16:29):
You're in the opposing team's locker room. That's just gone
too far.

Speaker 3 (01:16:34):
And if it's happening in baseball, it's gonna happen in
the NBA, it's gonna happen in the NFL. It's like
it was one thing to accept that they're all friends now,
but now they're hanging around. But this trade is different
in a different club. Trade is relatively new, and this
might be the first time he saw his old teammates
and he was a Tampa Bay right, that's how you
know him.

Speaker 1 (01:16:54):
What do you think about it?

Speaker 3 (01:16:56):
I'll give you my thoughts, and I want to hear
from you while you explain the story. I got to
explain that I do like the game of Randy rose Arena.
I like how he plays. I think he's great. I
like his fire. I don't like this move. Then again,
no one told them to beat it. AJ Persinsky and
John paplebon we're talking about this. I respect him because, well,

(01:17:18):
guess what, whether you like Aj, he was a polarizing player.
Both guys polarizing players. AJ Persinski played in the BIGS
for nineteen years, okay. John Paplebond played for I think twelve.
Neither of them have ever seen anything like that and
papal Bond. Both guys said if they saw an opposing

(01:17:39):
player come into their clubhouse, into their clubhouse while they're chilling,
you know, that's their sort of sacred territory, that's their
what's the word I'm thinking of, that's their their dojo
Cossa house.

Speaker 1 (01:17:52):
Sanctuary, sanctuary. Thank you you were close, Rich Dojo Kosa house.
Their sanctuary was the word I was looking for.

Speaker 3 (01:17:59):
Though, you know, you see the opposing can you imagine
how it had been received. A yankee walked in on
papal Bond while he was there playing video games, chilling
in the clubhouse with his buddies. They would have said
beat it, Terry. Frank ConA would have said beat it okay.
And that's really the culture and how it is. You
don't just barge into someone's clubhouse. A Rose Arena went

(01:18:22):
from his Seattle clubhouse into the Tampa Bays Clubhouse, into
the Race Clubhouse.

Speaker 1 (01:18:27):
Just to be like, Yo, what's up Kevin Cash? Yo,
what's up my old teammates? You know, what's up? I'm
hanging out he's no longer on the team, dude. That's
not how it works. It's not a good look for
his new teammates. It's not a good look for Kevin Cash,
because Kevin Cash should be like, hey, dude, I love you, Randy,
but you're not on this team anymore. Beat it. I
got the hell out of my house, exactly, Get out

(01:18:48):
of my would you call it casa dojo, health dojo,
cassa house. Get out of my dojo cosa house. That's
not how it works. Now.

Speaker 3 (01:18:56):
We've accepted that opposing teams. I have friends on each team.
We get that, we've accepted it. But now to be
going in and out of the opposing team's locker room
and clubhouse, that's just a little much and a little invasive.
In my opinion, I feel like you're being intrusive and
truth It's like when you Facetimey Rich and I'm on

(01:19:18):
the ball, It's like, beat it. This is my private time.
I want you to keep something in mind. Now, I
want you to keep something very much in mind. It's
not the eighties or nineties, the twenty twenties. Culture has
changed in all these sports. As far as the players
proving that I'm saying, I feel like the players look
at it more so like we're part of the fraternity

(01:19:40):
of the National Football League more than a team. We're
you know, we're major League baseball players. More that's a fan.
When you despise these people, do you want to know
that the guys you're rooting for are pals with them,
That that Rubs face that I own your teammates. I agree,
But there's one exception in caveat one rub that I

(01:20:01):
do think is an exception, and I think a Rosa
falls in this category, which is lifer on the team
for the most part, traded mid season, first time back
at that stadium. He played with those guys since Covid,
since he was on the race. I get it, and
that he's not the first guy rich to say rivederci
to his teammates.

Speaker 1 (01:20:21):
He's not the first guy ever to be put in
the situation.

Speaker 3 (01:20:24):
The culture, the way it works, and the way it's
always been, and there's no problem with it is you
say what's up to your former manager and your buddies
on the field at the cage. I do think it's
slightly linestepping, but think about it in any business, not
just the NFL, midjor league baseball of the NBA. Think
of something that worked at your company for a while.

(01:20:46):
There is a weird feeling when they do come back
to visit because it's like, well, do they need security
to walk them around? No, but they're not an employee anymore.
So like Jymore who worked here back in the day.
Give me another random person that worked here the day, Steve,
like a Jim Rome or something, Steve.

Speaker 1 (01:21:03):
Harvey, he worked, he worked in the building. He worked
in this building. Now if they came in and wanted
to visit, oh my old stomping grounds. How about Ramos.

Speaker 3 (01:21:12):
That's a great example. Ramos is welcome back anytimes. Yeah, hey, guys,
until Big Mike tackles on my intruder. Hey, so he
got a Big Mike. He made a good point, and
it backs up what you're saying, Rich, Big Mike says.
This only continues to.

Speaker 1 (01:21:25):
Prove that we live in a culture of players no
longer team, meaning he's just a player in the big leagues.

Speaker 3 (01:21:34):
He's not necessarily a Seattle Mariner. He's Randy a Rose Arena.
And that's just the world we live in. It's not
about my loyalty to any team anymore, because they're all
pals and they're all in this fraternity. But I'm telling
you it's not a good look for the fans. And
I got one more point, and Danny G don't want
to hear what you have to say.

Speaker 1 (01:21:50):
But before I.

Speaker 3 (01:21:50):
Forget, I'm here to say I think everybody's wrong. I
think both sides to this story are wrong. Kevin Cash,
as the leader of the Tampa Bay Rays, should have
been like, yeah, sorry, man, you're not allowed here in
our clubhouse.

Speaker 1 (01:22:06):
Your noise long your eyes for the last five years. Now,
I get it.

Speaker 3 (01:22:10):
Yeah, but it's not a good look for his new team.
You're letting a Seattle Mariner in the clubhouse. He's not
on a team anymore. So I think that I think
the Mariners are I think the Rais are in the wrong,
and I think the Mariners are in the wrong for
allowing us to even happen. Randier Rosa Rain, I think
is overstepping here. He seems to be an habitual line
stepper and it would rub me the wrong way as

(01:22:34):
a fan. Okay, yeah, well, you brought up j Moore.
I think the more appropriate example would be Stephen A.

Speaker 1 (01:22:40):
Smith. He used to work on our network.

Speaker 2 (01:22:43):
He did the shift that two pros and a cup
of Joe do right now, okay, okay, and he didn't
last long because he couldn't handle the hours.

Speaker 1 (01:22:50):
But now he's at ESPN.

Speaker 2 (01:22:52):
Obviously, imagine him coming and being all chummy when Fox
Sports Radio, with all due respect, is kicking ESPN.

Speaker 3 (01:23:00):
But in the radio world, yeah, well hold on radio
row right, here's a great example, be a little uh
what was he doing? So when we go to the
Super Bowl, which is always a great time, everyone in
the media, TV, radio, everyone's there. When you see old
coworkers that we worked with on let's say the ESPN set,

(01:23:23):
you've went over and gave him some hugs and did
everything on their set respectfully.

Speaker 1 (01:23:27):
You prove it, prove it I have. You've gone to
the serious XM set. I still worked there.

Speaker 5 (01:23:32):
You bone of time.

Speaker 1 (01:23:34):
I still work there. I get a check every two weeks,
get part time. Get out of here. What's the difference.
I worked there. I still worked there. I'm just saying
that those teams, do you, I just hosted a big
event there, we're gonna do tell me to leave?

Speaker 2 (01:23:47):
Which the baseball teams are going head to head. So
I think the better example is straight up competition.

Speaker 1 (01:23:52):
That's your competition.

Speaker 3 (01:23:55):
I get it, it's sports, But when you got fans
and they're angry about these things there, and they're you know,
hearts are on the line rooting for these players. I
wouldn't want to hear that my guy that I'm rooting
for is in the other locker room, in the other clubhouse.
And again, the way they describe it, here's something you
need to keep in mind. Former players are saying they've

(01:24:15):
never seen that before, so it's not like a common thing.
They've never seen it, and they describe it as their sanctuary.
That's their safe space. The only people allowed there are
are there their current team, which at that point is
like a family.

Speaker 4 (01:24:29):
Ros Arena is not part of that family anymore. That's
just how it is, how it's always been.

Speaker 3 (01:24:35):
Out on a guy like Justin Turner comes back to
the Dodgers, he comes back to Dodger Stadium, he gets
around of applause.

Speaker 1 (01:24:41):
Now they do a little.

Speaker 3 (01:24:42):
State, they put together a montage on the screen. That's fine,
that's called the respect. They're respecting the guy. They're giving
him his due, his applause, whatever. But still you're trying
to beat that guy. So he's on the other team. Now,
that's just how it is, man.

Speaker 1 (01:24:58):
I don't know.

Speaker 3 (01:24:58):
So it's it's rubbing some big leaguers the wrong way,
some old school fans the wrong way. What says you
Fox Sports Radio Nation? Think about it. If it's going
to be happening in baseball, it will trinkle and trickle
down into other sports. And that's the story. We don't
need the harp on it. I just see how I
feel about I think everybody you could. I think you
could want to whoop someone's ass and still be their friend.

(01:25:18):
I really do, I mean really, do you like the
fact that Mike Tyson is having tickle fights with Jake
Paul Or do you want Mike Tyson to be smacking
Jake Paul in the face at the press conference? Which
is which one feels better to you as a as
a guy paying money to watch these guys plays fight.

Speaker 1 (01:25:33):
That's a fight, I get what you're saying. No, it's
a gate. It's a sport.

Speaker 3 (01:25:37):
It's winning, winning and losing. They're competing against each other.
Isn't that what we've built up.

Speaker 1 (01:25:43):
In our minds? Is that why our hearts are online?
Is that why you're putting money on these teams? Steve?
Is this you walking into sirius? I don't even really
work here, I do.

Speaker 3 (01:25:53):
I'm on every night Turmo forty one. Yeah, playing Divorced
