(01:15):
I don't know about you. I don't know if I've

to have him back. Oh No, I'm talking about Christan
McCaffrey this week. Maybe I can't trump. I can't wait, dude,
after maybe after eight grueling weeks, nine weeks of being like, yo,
what's doing with McCaffrey. Well, in fact, someone wants to
(01:39):
talk McCaffrey. Let's go to my dude, Harrison in the
Bay Area. McCaffrey back, is this where the Niners turn

Speaker 1 (01:45):

Speaker 5 (01:47):
Oh? But before I uh, before I go on, I
just want to say I got touched the homes here
and uh, you know, last night was a great victory
for America. And shout out all the MAGA crowd out there.
We did.
Speaker 1 (02:05):
His mom did? Uh? Did mahomes? That's fine, I'm not
a bad mahomes. My guy guy.
Speaker 2 (02:10):
Did his mom or wife say anything on social or no,
has anyone been monitoring the Mahomes family. No, but clearly
they're happy. She was rocking the haat this weekend. Know
who's happy?
Speaker 1 (02:21):
Nick Bosa? Wow, Covino, you have competition. What do you mean?
Speaker 2 (02:26):
What do you mean Nick Bosa's happy? Anyway, we're getting
ready for midweek Major. The biggest stories in the world
of sports and pomp culture spot are they politics related?
Because again, I feel like a lot of these things
are touchy today, today, tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
You just got to deal with it. I want you
to avoid two things in midweek Major. You don't want
to hear every athlete's reaction to the election? No, no, no,
what we start over?
Speaker 2 (02:53):
What I'm requiring you to avoid today in midweek Major?
Politics and Peanut the squirrel? Can you can you do
avoiding those two things? More about nachos because it's national nacho?
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Then care move this the next hour? Oh wait?
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Actually, which I enjoyed your story of Nacho Ignasio the
nacho man, because you think about it, it's been seventy
years and if you want to tie it back to sports.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
You go to the ball game.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
What's better than the guy who comes down he has
nacho cho naos in.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Helmets every concession stand.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
It's just part of the festivity, is part of the game.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
You go to a what would they serving a helmet?
If soup? I mean, don't you get excited? Though?
Speaker 6 (03:37):
When they're loaded nachos like they have more than just
the two generic ingredients like you see in some concession stands,
like just the melted cheese and chips. No, give me
some sour cream, give me some halapanos, some guawk.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Yeah, you gotta load it up.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
And the biggest takeaway from the story is who knew
that Nacho Libre's name was Ignasio libread.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
You know, Miguel Jalepagno was the first one to add.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
But no, I don't think the average I don't think
the average white boy knows that Ignasio. The nickname for
Ignasio is Nacho, and Ignasio was his last name. Anaya Ignasio.
Anaya invented him on this day, nineteen forty three, nineteen
forty three. If you enjoy some megadope chose on his
(04:24):
behalf today. If you missed it, the quick of it
is that he served them late night, when everyone else
had left the restaurant. He cut tortillas into smaller triangles,
put cheese and some toppins, some jalapagno's and a few
things on. Served them to a bunch of army wives.
They loved it and they were raving about nachos special.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Did he bread like Wilde? So he did. He also
invent the tortilla chip. I'm confused. It's around the same time.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Nacho Special was also a sex move, but I gave
it the old because it was something he panted years ago.
Speaker 7 (04:58):
Because nachos, if you ever go to like an off
fentic Mexican restaurant, nachos are basically like half a tortilla
fried with like beans and cheese on top. They're not
what you think of as nachos. Why trying to ruin
my store? Because it's like that time that these are delicious?
What do you call them nachos?
Speaker 1 (05:16):
No? No, no, I made them. I made them their
their mind. How do you guys take your nachos? By
the way, what do you leave off medium rare? I
don't know.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
I mean like people say, like I'll take black beans
like no, I'll be honest, I prefer beef. What do
you do I prefer Do you like a spicy, simple,
simply medium rare with.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Some melted cheese. I don't like the cheese whiz and
I think, give you.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
What about like vegetables, you know, shredded chopped onion, okay, chicken.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Think if you had a restaurant or like a Buffalo,
Wild Wings or a Hooters or something. Sometimes it gets
a little too messy when you put too much on it.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
That is part of the game, in my opinion.
Speaker 6 (05:50):
You get beans, beans on there, everybody, beef and sour
cream on there.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
I think we could all agree on that, right.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
At least we could all on this day, on this
very sad, emotional, divisive day of aftermath, we can all
agree that nachos are great. Some of you thank you
to Ignacio and Iya. Some people are ecstatic today, some
are sad today. But everyone could agree that nachos are awesome.
Oh yeah, let's share.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Some, right, you know. Have you guys ever seen it's
a clip I think from I watch a show where
it all still goes forever Carnal. I think it's it
was either.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
It was either community or what's the show where everyone
did fantasy football together?
Speaker 1 (06:31):
The league? The league?
Speaker 2 (06:32):
It was one of those shows where someone got no,
I'm sorry, it was King of Queens. Someone got mad
that you can't take the middle nacho that has the
biggest clump of cheese. That's like the nucleus of the nachos. Like,
you can't be the jabbroni that comes in and goes
for the four chips that are connected to the globe.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
That's the best, that's the best.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Almost you got to politely like work around that big glob.
What's better that random curly fry in your fries or
that awesome nacho glob.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
Which came out first Saving Silverman or that episode of
King of Queens. Because in the movie Saving Silverman at
Jack Black and there's you know, Jason, no, no, no different, Jason,
they talk about the nachos, the nacho clump.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
Oh, it's all one nacho. It's all one nacho. If
you just pick it up, you can't be the guy.
That's the lesson to be learned here. Forget Trump or
Kamala or anything of substance. We're talking nachos, guys, and
you can't take the nucleus. You can't take the nacho clump.
And today was the day nachos were invented seventy one
years ago.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Changed the game. Actually I'm sorry, eighty one years ago
changed the game. Where does it rank in football food?
Speaker 2 (07:44):
It's up there, Danny goes. When you think about it, it
could be a hole in the wall or a chain restaurant.
What's going to be consistently on every appetizer menu? Wings, nachos, yep,
maybe mazzarella.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Si Yeah, yep.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
That's pretty amazing when you think about it all. Because
they should make a Hulu movie about this guy. Why
so spot could debate it like you did the uh
the game. Gloria needs to get on this stat lie,
he stole he stole that valley? How is there not
of all the dumb food documentaries I watch on like
the History Channel, like The Food That Built America? How
is it not a special on Ignacio? By the way
(08:17):
you look him up, you can see that guy. You
owe him some respect today.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Yeah, but it looks like a picture that should be
on someone's old friend in the eighteen hundred.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
I mean it's an old picture. So anyway, what what
a picture is oval? That means it's an old picture.
Thank you guys, and thanks for celebrating Nacho Day with us.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
But you got it to him? What do you got there?
I was saying, hey, hey, what are you doing if
you get the nacho stuck together? And that's one nacho.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
That Jack Black ties together because Jack Black played who
he played?
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Who not Bray? Here you go there it is.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Yeah, well, hopefully you're having hopefully you're having a bitcoin
t take a look at your cryptough. Hey, spot's gonna
get to midwek major. But I did want to bring
up one baseball story before we get into a little
midweek major. In Week ten of the NFL, a lot
of Wan Soto news, I'm sure in Covino's feed because
he's a Yankees fan and I'm a Mets fan, So
(09:17):
of course I'm gonna get the yo. Uncle Steve, Steve
Cohen's gonna spend whatever he can. I gotta ask, whether
it's football, baseball, basketball, your sport of choice, do you
ever get upset if the player leaves your team? But
it's clearly because well, they're making a business choice the
(09:37):
most money. Like I know you were really but her
because we've been friends a long time. When Robbie Cano
left the Yankees to go to the Mariners, you felt
like betrayed. Well, it was also a time where the
Yankees had this level of prestige to pinstripes. He could
have been the face, the next face of the Yankees,
and the fans loved him. It's not like they were
(09:58):
offering him chump change, but they were also offering him
to be part of a winning tradition, a pride for organization.
They would offer him the face of the franchise. It's
New York City. You're not asking a guy to move
to some crappy city at the time, right, So you
have to factor in all those things. And he clearly
chased the bag and karma worked against him. He battled injury.
(10:19):
He was never the same in Seattle. He's never the
same with your Mets or the SpongeBob SquarePants that he
played for. Later on, he had an amazing offseason this
past year in Mexico. I don't know if anyone followed that,
but Robbie Cano was never the same guy, and you
could say that's karma. I don't think any decision should
be based solely on money, and no matter whether you
(10:41):
play professional sports or you're just a guy who works
at the factory, you know what's best for your family,
what's best for your living situation. There's so many factors,
school systems. Is it always about the bag? If it is,
I think that says a lot about your character. No, agreed,
one hundred percent priorities. And I don't just say this
because we're happy here at Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
It's a lesson that we learned.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
If you know, if a competitor was like Covino and Rich,
we'll give you a little more money to go somewhere else,
I'd say, little more money, no thanks, I'm happy.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
I love our crew, we work with good people. I
feel comfortable. Money. You can't refuse.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Money is a different story, life changing change, the stars
of my family and future generations to come. Yeah, that's different, right,
you might have no choice in that in that case,
But a little more money, I don't know. Man, you
got a factor in so many different things.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
You know.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
If you're talking like a regular person's job and now
we'll give you five percent more, ten percent more, that
should never be the real reason why you make a
move right.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
No way, man. I'll tell you what.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Rich and I worked the job for the money, and
we were unhappy. And if they came back again and said, yo,
well double what you're making now is kind of strong,
But i'd have to factor in. Well, I wasn't happy.
He said, do you say double lady?
Speaker 5 (12:06):
Guys?
Speaker 1 (12:06):
All right, double lady Danny g nice knowing you. Yeah, well,
stay in touch. Let me know how cold is when
he grows up.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
But I wouldn't solely go just for the money because
I realized that I was just doing it for the
check and it wasn't fun at all. It wasn't good
for my mental health. And I'm not one of those,
you know, cry babies about work, but it really was
a tough work situation. It was stressful, it took up
a majority of our day. I wouldn't chase the bag
(12:36):
again if that opportunity came. We did that just for
the money. So ask yourself this question. You're one so
to And by the way, I still agree. Even though
the Yankees fell short, his at bat in the ALCS
was a top three at bat of all time, all time.
When he sized up every pitch and then went yard.
(12:57):
That was a that was a masterclass in hitting. It
was Now again, sports is a little different because you
have a shelf life, right, I get that. And you
could also say, well, there's no shame in negotiating to
to to raise up your worth and your value. Right,
that's just good bargaining, that's just good negotiating, And I
(13:19):
feel like that applies to everybody. You want to get
the most out of your time. But I think you
should try to do that where you thrive the most
and where you're the happiest. And if you could get
a few extra bucks by trying to see what else
people are trying to offer, by seeking your value, I
don't see any crime in that. So I don't see
(13:40):
any harm in what Soto's doing. But if he's truly
happy in New York, then I think you stay in
New York. He was accepted there. Now there what it
does a crosstown team like the Dodgers, let's be honest,
reaped the benefits that Otani. All he had to do
is just how to drive up the coast a little bit,
drive up the hot the free, and I think that's
(14:01):
what makes his case different. And I think the Mets
also makes Sodo's situation different.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Still New York, so but it is a different franchise.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
Let's say, Wan Soto, I'm just pulling out numbers because
I'll give you a generic offer that i've seen.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
If they saying six hundred eleven, so for thirteen years.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Let's just give a generic number ten year, five hundred
fifty million year for ten years. But they are saying
thirteen years. It could be more, but let's just say
just for the to make the numbers easy. If I
said Yankees offer Juan Soto ten years, five hundred million,
fifty million dollars a year for ten years to play baseball, Wow,
what a world. If the San Francisco Giants are like,
(14:40):
oh yeah, ten years, five twenty five, who is it
for you or me to be like stay? It's only
only twenty five million different, twenty five million dollars in
more than most people will see that. It's all ego driven, honestly,
because at that point, how much money do you need?
And that's just your agent trying to get every penny
out of this organization for their own ego. You know,
(15:04):
I don't think that these things should factor. If he
doesn't want to live in San Francisco again, what's best
for your family, what's best for your living situation, All
these things should factor just as much as how much
money I'm getting you Damn Bayer, Danny g you guys
are both married dudes with lovely families. Have you had
the conversations with the wifees of, hey, if it's Fox
(15:27):
or ESPN or CBS or NBC or play by play
or anything in the sports world, do you have like
those preliminary conversations of like, here's the money you would
have to take, missus Bayer for us to uproot the
fam and move. Have we all had those covers? How
about longevity? I think your job safety and your longevity
(15:49):
with that company is also as important. How many more
years are you getting? No, No, I haven't had those conversations.
Speaker 6 (15:59):
Yeah, they like to get too personal this stuff, so yeah, yeah,
I mean my situation is a little unique because we
have a teenage daughter who shares time with her dad
here in southern California. So until she is graduating high school,
say we can't, we can't up you know, up our lives, which.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
By the way, is another layer of this that a
lot of people don't realize. What if a player is
playing closer to his actual hometown and he's like, yeah,
I could go chase money, but you know, like my kids,
grandparents and cousins are like, you know, a city away
opposed to you know, let's just say. Wan Soto's roots
are in New York, and he's like, you know, I've
(16:41):
met people, My family feels comfortable.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Now you have a lot at Dominican support there, that's
for sure. Where am I going to go to? The
Washington Heights area?
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Basically, the question is based on the offers we're seeing
on the table, the projected offers of one hundred and
thirteen million? Was it one hundred and what million? For
thirteen years? Do you blame your favorite players? Lots of
millions for thirteen years? Do you blame your favorite players
for taking the money? I think if again, if you're
(17:11):
a crappy organization, right, and you know that guy deserves
better treatment like Otani, you think that guy should have
stayed with the Angels. That dude deserve to win. It's
kind of like goodwill hunting. You do wish well for
those people who deserve it, Like nah Man, Otani gave
us everything he could with the Angels. Go and win
(17:33):
a championship, buddy, You've earned it and you deserve it.
You gotta want these people to thrive and strive. If
they're really chasing a championship, that's different. That's not chasing
the bag. That's chasing the chip, and that's what sports
is all about. So you really have to ask yourself, well,
what are they doing and if you know that it
was just for the money, and with Canoe that was
a great example, that's exactly what it was.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Beat it.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
I lost respect for you. You're right about it being
a more than ten year deal. I'm here in thirteen
because he's twenty five and there's gonna be a deal
that they're saying would get him from twenty five to
thirty eight, a thirteen year deal. But from everything I'm reading,
the starting point just say the starting point is ten years,
five hundred million. Wow, who's willing to go from there?
Speaker 5 (18:19):
Right?
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Yeah? At the last number I saw was six hundred million.
Yeah was that? It's like six hundred thirty Yeah years? Insane? Yeah,
I mean he's twenty five. You also have to keep
that in mind.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
So my point is if the guy's already set up
like Soto set up, they could win in New York.
It's not like there's some they just played in the
World Series. If he was playing for some Dodo team,
I had no shot. If you're Mike Trout, if you're
my Yeah, again, if you're like a Mike Trout, You're like, yeah, man,
I'm sort of wasting my career here with the Angels
(18:50):
and Anaheim. Then you could see that guy wanting to
leave and go for the victory, for the legacy, for
the ring. Those are things that are much different, in
my opinion, Rich, than chasing the money.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
They're close in New York.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
What do you mean they're close meaning they a couple
of adjustments in their playoff team right possibly back in
the World Series.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Exactly.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Yeah, that's that's that. That would be a reason if
you are a player that cares. And from what I'm reading,
according to ESPN yesterday, Juan Soto's number one priority and
this is all lip service, I believe, but number one
priority winning?
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Does he gotta say that right?
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Well, then he shouldn't looked too far away. I don't
know how much I believe in the uh half.
Speaker 6 (19:32):
Of me believes that Rich. He was the last Yankee
out there watching the Dodgers celebration.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
She was I respected that. Wow, spot, did you just
go get us day? We got nachos?
Speaker 1 (19:41):
Everybody, Wait before you take it first flight, who do
you have to say a prayer for?
Speaker 5 (19:46):
For?
Speaker 1 (19:47):
Is it Ignacio anayam. Cheers man, cheers, not your cheers. Nice.
I'll grab one of those boys. Ah in tribute. You
know what, spot get your bide. I'm taking the nucleus,

Speaker 2 (21:59):
Here, Dan Byer Spotty getting ready for midweek major We
do it every Wednesday, the biggest stories in the world
of sports and pop culture. But right now, Rich I
do want to wrap up your thought of do you
blame your favorite player for taking the money?
Speaker 1 (22:14):
I do.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
It's a weak ass Look, it's a weak ass character trait.
And we know from experience you've been there and done that.
It's not about the money. You're so many other factors
involved in these decisions. And look, if you need it,
I understand, But I think Wan Soto is doing I
with the Yankees. But that's why the classic and best
(22:36):
example here is Shoheo Tani. I think he's a great
example because he still kept his honor and his respect.
He didn't leave his state, he didn't leave the city.
He just went to a different team. He didn't necessarily
chase the money. He chased the ring. That's how I
look at it. Whether that's true or not, I think
that guy deserved to win. He chased the ring. He
(22:58):
stayed in the same place for the most part. I
think there's a difference that if in your first opportunity
to leave, you chase that's a little selfish, Like you
chase the money, right, But if later in your career you're.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Like, I'm just good, I'm gonna.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Go where I think I have a chance to win.
And get money. I think the perception is different. I
think Otani was at the right time of his career.
You saw him, dude, he tried everything he could with
Mike Trout to make that team a winner. And yeah,
I think at this point we've seen sodo In fact
that don't you feel a little sad for Trout and
his loyalty. Loyalty is not gonna get him any legacy.
(23:32):
I promise you that our buddy might hit us up
and he goes. When it comes to this, a little
more money Sometimes a little more money means a little
more insecurity. So money security could mean insecurity in other
areas of your life. Like it's not like they said,
I've heard one guy say, I forget his name, but
mo money more problem.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
I've heard that. I've heard that.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
All right, Well, hey, happy National NA Show Day and
let's get into it.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Mid Week Major.
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Covino and Rich gets you over the MIDDE love the
week when mid Week Major, Oh, I love that we
throw sports and pop culture headlines and topics at the
fellas and it's like the kids.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Say, that's summit.
Speaker 2 (24:12):
We definitely lead here.
Speaker 8 (24:14):
See in our score mid Week Major.
Speaker 1 (24:17):
Oh Yeah, let's go Are you ready?
Speaker 6 (24:22):
When I say Cole, you say ven o, co Rito cono.
Speaker 1 (24:27):
When I say Rich, y'all say Davis, Rich, Davis Rich
Des It is about that time you say Rich duvas.
Speaker 6 (24:36):
When you hear the horns hit, you know you've made
it to the middle of the week. Before we pass
things over to the number one and only host of
the segment. We like to yeah, thank you, Spotty for
those nachos. We'd like to roll those big red love
dice over there in the main studio to see who
gets the first take.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
I just rolled a two. I rolled the snake guyes well,
my eleven wins, though eleven on certain boards, those are
worth a lot rich to get to go first.
Speaker 6 (25:01):
And now, Ladies and Germs, The One and Only the Man,
the Myth, the mini series, the most famous person from
Scotch Plains New Jersey besides Judy Bloom.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Spotty boy, that's funny. Am I really not allowed to
talk about politics? This is hot?
Speaker 7 (25:14):
This is hot off the press, Hot off the press
happened today, Rich with your forty nine ers. Nick Bosa
himself was asked about crashing as you remember what was it?
Last week brought Perty's interview with his maga hat maga maga. Well,
as we know, the NFL prohibits players from wearing any
personal and non approved messages on the field or during interviews. Well,
(25:36):
when he was asked, he said that hey, if it comes,
it comes. Speaking about the fine, it was well worth it.
He does have yet to be contacted by the NFL
or receive a fine, but he is prepared for it.
He didn't really comment on the election results because he
was asked today, but he did have a kind of
a smug look on his face, So I imagine he's happy.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Midweker major.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
I think it's I think it's mid okay because you know,
guess what, more people voted for Donald Trump than Kamala Harris.
So to think it's like crazy did an NFL player
supported you know, the Republican candidate. Nick Boilsa is gonna
be happy as well as seventy something other million years voted.
A lot of people just weren't allowed to express their
feelings and express the fact that they were voting for Trump.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
That's why people are so shocked and surprised by it, because.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
If you admitted that you're voting for Trump, you were
deemed like this bad person. Yeah, and it seems like
a lot of people voted more than you thought.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Mick Bosa owned it.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
I think it's sort of mid as well.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Spot how much was fine?
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Now, that's the thing like looking at whatever it is,
I'm sure it's chump changed for an NFL player.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
Last time I.
Speaker 7 (26:41):
Check caliber, I believe the finds were somewhere around like
twelve thousand for the first offense.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Okay, that's fine a lot.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
I think it was like twelve thirteen thousand or something
like that, which is nothing to get his little point.
Who was recently we have the player that were the
EyeBlack that said something yeah that was I think that
was the third thirteen yeah for the first defense.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
So for him, that's that's zilch so mid story.
Speaker 7 (27:03):
He got his point across over to the other other
eye roll the folks. Travis Kelsey, of course, sticking up
for his big bro Jason after he was involved in
that verbalification turned into phone smashed last week. In the
p I latest episode of New Heights, of course, opened
up addressing the moment, Travis acknowledged how the magnitude of
(27:26):
his relationship with Taylor so just taking a toll on Jason,
uh and feel, but feels it isn't as big of
a deal as everyone's making it out to be. He
went on to add that if some quote effing clown
came up to talk about your family and you reacted
in a way to he reacted in a way to
defend his family, and he used the word, he regretted
(27:47):
h and he's owned up to it. Jason, of course,
addressed the incident on Monday Night Football this past week,
saying he regrets saying that midweeker major this.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
Said nothing burger okay? This week?
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Speaking of burgers, I think you told me to avoid politics.
Can feel the guilt burgers that Travis has for putting
his brother in these situations. I mean, they're reaping the
benefits of it, don't get get it wrong, but there's
some negative that comes along with it.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
And we witnessed it, yeah this weekend.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
But you got to I always say when it comes
to these social things, I always ask myself who's offended,
who's mad? And I've only found one person that's mad
at Travis. I'm sorry, Jason Kelsey, and that's Harvey Levin
at TMZ.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
He's the only guy that I saw I'd be like, oh,
you know, we usure be held accountable.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Due I think most other people would have been held
accountable in a different way. But on the flip side
of that, you could say, well, we all know Jason
Kelsey for being and love Jason Kelsey for being the
every guy, so maybe he's earned that pass in this situation,
and we all played dumb to like like these.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Are doing better than anybody. I know, you know, we're
professionals at that.
Speaker 5 (28:52):
It's not.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
But it's a matter of context matters, and it actually
was factored into this situation, which was kind of refreshing
because he's when stories like this happened. Context never matters,
and it did in this one. And I think that
Travis just feels a little bad that, because of his popularity,
put his brother in this situation.
Speaker 7 (29:10):
Yeah, the sorry, you know, Dodgers not only cost the
Yankees their twenty eighth World Series title, but also cost
a fan it's official two fingers. As you recall, the
video went viral of the Dodgers fan lighting off fireworks
at the postgame celebration, and you saw it went off
just a little bit too early, exploded. The guy was
(29:31):
trying to walk off an explosion of his hand. Well,
his father, Kevin King Senior, announced officially that his twenty
five year old son, Kevin King Junior, lost his index
and middle finger on his left hand. I underwent two surgery,
still has to undergo another surgery. No word on whether
or when he'll be back at work, but a GoFundMe
(29:52):
has been set up to help with his medical bills,
which have surpassed ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
Maybe should sell popcorn Midweek or Major? I think it's U.
I think it's major. It's a reminder for you know,
no offense to this kid, A.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
Reminder for dopes not to play with fireworks, right, I mean, like,
what are we doing? Your team wins and your lighting
off explosives then also you almost blow your hand off.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
I mean, I'll give this guy a high three. I
don't know what to tell you. Was this the Dodger's
eighth championship? But it was? Right?
Speaker 2 (30:24):
So he has as many fingers as championships. Maybe it's
the curse of this guy. Maybe you'll never win, that's it.
Maybe you'll never see nine because this bozo went and
took things too far.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Right, Now, that's the curse of the king.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
It's the greatest point you've ever made, so I think
it's a major story. In fact, let's go Yankees, eight trophies,
eight fingers. Hey, Like we said about the political situation,
you go back to the to the room and fix
your problems Yankees next year.
Speaker 6 (30:54):
This twenty five year old never see the old school cartoons.
Everybody knows you put a trail of gunpowder next to
the explosives, or light it and throw it. Don't just
like look at it lighting. Don't get me wrong, I
feel bad from no one hold it in your hands, put.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
It on the ground and light it. You don't have
to hold it just to light it anyway, next all right.
Speaker 7 (31:16):
As we discussed or has been mentioned, Bob cost has
officially stepped away from calling play by play, especially after
the extensive backlash he received this past postseason. Wilkassa sat
down with MLB Network's Tom Berducci earlier this week to
talk about the decision and didn't hold back on the
reason he decided to step away.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
He said, I felt that.
Speaker 7 (31:34):
I couldn't consistently reach my past standard. I have too
much regard for the game, for the craft, and whatever
my own standard has been to hit beneath my lifetime
batting average. I just felt like the past couple of
years I couldn't quite reach that. So he's acknowledging that
he has been slipping a little bit in recent years,
kind of echoing the sentiment that a lot of people
have been having watching it, that it's sad, but at
(31:54):
least he's acknowledging it, stepping away Midweker major.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
It's mature, but I hate it. So it's a weak.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
Because I love Bob Costas and we talked about what
a great legend he is, but the fact that he
had to man up and be like, I'm not the
broadcaster I once was in regards to play by play,
So it makes me sad a little bit.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
But you know it doesn't.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
I think he's taken the high road because he's Bob Costas,
and you know, we did speculate. I remember Dan Bayer saying, man,
maybe he did lose a little bit of speed on
his fastball. I don't think that was really even the
factor whether or not he did. I think the world
changed too much around him where our expectations were different
and he can't He's not able to meet our current
day expectations, our tastes of change. That's all all right,
(32:39):
thank you spot, Thanks guys, appreciate you.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
We'll wait no more time for midweek major. But oh,
next week, what was your next story? Give me that
odd story? What was it?
Speaker 7 (32:47):
I was going to be either about Donald Trump talking
about Kaitlyn Clark in the pay in the WNBA or
the McDonald's ice cream machines.
Speaker 1 (32:54):
Now could be fixed. Whoa, that's a major story and
you led with what you led with.
Speaker 4 (32:58):
Sorry, Donald Trump. Kaylyn Clark came up in the same discussion. Yeah,
I know nothing of this salivating.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
That's like a major story. Let's go to Dan.
Speaker 9 (33:10):
I could offer suggestions for more time, but it would
probably take out of my time, so we don't want
to do that.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (33:17):
Panthers head coach Dave Canalis said today that Bryce Young
is going to start at quarterback in Germany this Sunday
against the New York Giants. It'll be the third straight
start for Young, getting a win last week against New Orleans.
Cowboys and Eagles will play in Week ten of the
Eagles side of things.

not practice because of a hamstring strain. Tennan Dallas Goddard
practiced fully today, while Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley got
a day of rest. On the Cowboys side of things,
Michael Parsons was able to practice on a limited basis.
Mike McCarthy put him on a snap count today, but
he could return for Week ten from his ankle injury.
Speaker 5 (33:51):
Well.
Speaker 9 (33:51):
The NFL Networks is Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott's hamstring injury
was diagnosed as a hamstring tendon that was partially torn
off the bone. The full recovery time for this type
of injury, according to Jane Slater, is typically more than
four weeks, so the Dak Prescott injury a little bit
more significant than maybe first believed. Forty nine Ers running
back Christian McCaffrey limited in practice today but was feeling
(34:14):
no pain as he comes back from an achilles injury.
Bengals and Ravens will start Week ten tomorrow night. Ravens
tight end Isaiah Likely has been ruled out. Quarterback Lamar
Jackson he's off the injury reporting ready to go well.
Bengals wide receiver t Higgins is considered doubtful for that game.
When other NFL note, New Commanders corner Marshawn Lattimore miss
practice today with a hamstring injury. On New Lion's edge
(34:36):
rushers Adaria Smith out because of a personal matter. Dodgers
GM Brandon Gome says they hope to sun manager Dave
Roberts to a contract extension at some point this offseason.
The Padres did sign manager Mike Shilt to an extension
today that goes through twenty twenty seven.

us on social media. Let's take a quick phone call
Rich before we go, Let's say hi to Indiana.
Speaker 1 (38:51):
Eric. You're on what's up, buddy?
Speaker 3 (38:54):
Hey, thanks for taking my call. I didn't get through
yesterday about people that aren't and I didn't hear Dolly
Parton or Dave Girl.
Speaker 1 (39:06):
You know Dolly Parton cross Dave, Yeah, because of something
he did or admitted.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
Yeah, he admitted that he had an extra marital affair
and got a woman pregnant. And there's so many women
out there that were so disappointed, Like Dave roll there's
nothing sacred now, So I feel like, yeah, Dolly part
I'll stick with the Dolly Parton answer because I don't
think anyone has ever complained about her. I'll give you
(39:35):
that one we talked about. Since it's a divisive time
in our world. There was election day yesterday, we said, well,
what are some things we could all agree on? So
thanks for participating again at Covino and Rich.
Speaker 7 (39:50):
Wait a second, I just got a text from Joe
Burrow asking me to root for the Bengals tomorrow night.
Speaker 1 (39:53):
Oh now you're getting now you're getting NFL. Come on,
oh man, the spam just changed.
Speaker 2 (39:59):
You stop sending me Spamoe Man Burrow, don't forget to
wear your your Bengals whites tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
Broke Burrow hitting you up. You know, I want to
bring up one quick thing before we get the hell
out of.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
Bronnie James. I don't know how this was even a
headline that he played a mean seven seconds the other day.
That man who said to him what NBA player said
to Bronnie James, Ya, you don't even need to shower?
Speaker 1 (40:26):
You played too.
Speaker 6 (40:26):
It was Anthony Richard. I'm sorry, Anthony. Yeah, forget those
two confused.
Speaker 2 (40:32):
Bronnie James since his girlfriend flowers in a love note
during his first road trip in the NBA.
Speaker 1 (40:38):
And he must have did something.
Speaker 2 (40:40):
But you know, it brings up the theory that the
other day, Danny, we were sitting prepping for the show,
we saw some dude walk by with a huge bouquet
of flowers.
Speaker 1 (40:48):
Why is the assumption is always what did he do?
Speaker 6 (40:52):
Because it was like it took two workers to carry
those flowers. That was like a g in roses.
Speaker 1 (40:57):
What did you do when you see some guy?
Speaker 5 (41:00):
Why?
Speaker 1 (41:00):
Why is that?
Speaker 5 (41:01):
Like?
Speaker 1 (41:01):
Why why are you assuming guys just do dumb things?
Because they do? Because every time you see a guy
carrying flowers, my first instinct is a guy.
Speaker 2 (41:08):
It's a guy's thought to be like he did something.
He's trying to get out of the doghouse. But you
do get those smiles from like women and older women
who think you're a sweetheart because they know you're beating
flowers to somebody and you walk with a sense of
pride like I'm the greatest guy.
Speaker 1 (41:22):
Women look at you like, oh.
Speaker 2 (41:23):
My god, damn. Guys look at you like what you
do float? You're floating by them, and you smile like, Yep,
I'm pretty great.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
Thanks lay Either.
Speaker 6 (41:29):
That or women walk the other direction because they assume
you're a stalker.
Speaker 1 (41:32):
Yeah, no, it is. It's a weird feeling when you're
walking around that yeah up.
Speaker 2 (41:37):
No, he it must have been like her best friend,
but I must have been like scandalous.
Speaker 1 (41:42):
That was nice of Brownie James. He misses his girlfriend.
Speaker 2 (41:45):
Yeah, and instead of making fun of him, be like, hey,
maybe you should take a page out of that book.
When was the last time you did something nice for
the lady in your life just because you missed her. Right, Yeah,
that's what they would say. Don't do it when you
make a mistake. Do it on a random day like
y changing lives, Lance, romance, everybody, that's me. All right,
we'll see you guys tomorrow. Have a great Wednesday night.

Because again, I feel like a lot of these things
are touchy today, today, tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (02:44):
You just got to deal with it. I want you
to avoid two things in midweek Major. You don't want
to hear every athlete's reaction to the election? No, no, no,
what we start over?
Speaker 2 (02:53):
What I'm requiring you to avoid today in midweek Major?
Politics and Peanut the squirrel? Can you can you do
avoiding those two things? More about nachos because it's national nacho?

Then care move this the next hour? Oh wait?
Speaker 2 (03:07):
Actually, which I enjoyed your story of Nacho Ignasio the
nacho man, because you think about it, it's been seventy
years and if you want to tie it back to sports.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
You go to the ball game.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
What's better than the guy who comes down he has
nacho cho naos in.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Helmets every concession stand.
Speaker 2 (03:25):
It's just part of the festivity, is part of the game.
Speaker 1 (03:29):
You go to a what would they serving a helmet?
If soup? I mean, don't you get excited? Though?
Speaker 6 (03:37):
When they're loaded nachos like they have more than just
the two generic ingredients like you see in some concession stands,
like just the melted cheese and chips. No, give me
some sour cream, give me some halapanos, some guawk.
Speaker 1 (03:50):
Yeah, you gotta load it up.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
And the biggest takeaway from the story is who knew
that Nacho Libre's name was Ignasio libread.
Speaker 1 (04:00):
You know, Miguel Jalepagno was the first one to add.
Speaker 2 (04:04):
But no, I don't think the average I don't think
the average white boy knows that Ignasio. The nickname for
Ignasio is Nacho, and Ignasio was his last name. Anaya Ignasio.
Anaya invented him on this day, nineteen forty three, nineteen
forty three. If you enjoy some megadope chose on his
(04:24):
behalf today. If you missed it, the quick of it
is that he served them late night, when everyone else
had left the restaurant. He cut tortillas into smaller triangles,
put cheese and some toppins, some jalapagno's and a few
things on. Served them to a bunch of army wives.
They loved it and they were raving about nachos special.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Did he bread like Wilde? So he did. He also
invent the tortilla chip. I'm confused. It's around the same time.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Nacho Special was also a sex move, but I gave
it the old because it was something he panted years ago.
Speaker 7 (04:58):
Because nachos, if you ever go to like an off
fentic Mexican restaurant, nachos are basically like half a tortilla
fried with like beans and cheese on top. They're not
what you think of as nachos. Why trying to ruin
my store? Because it's like that time that these are delicious?
What do you call them nachos?
Speaker 1 (05:16):
No? No, no, I made them. I made them their
their mind. How do you guys take your nachos? By
the way, what do you leave off medium rare? I
don't know.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
I mean like people say, like I'll take black beans
like no, I'll be honest, I prefer beef. What do
you do I prefer Do you like a spicy, simple,
simply medium rare with.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
Some melted cheese. I don't like the cheese whiz and
I think, give you.
Speaker 4 (05:38):
What about like vegetables, you know, shredded chopped onion, okay, chicken.
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Think if you had a restaurant or like a Buffalo,
Wild Wings or a Hooters or something. Sometimes it gets
a little too messy when you put too much on it.
Speaker 1 (05:49):
That is part of the game, in my opinion.
Speaker 6 (05:50):
You get beans, beans on there, everybody, beef and sour
cream on there.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
I think we could all agree on that, right.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
At least we could all on this day, on this
very sad, emotional, divisive day of aftermath, we can all
agree that nachos are great. Some of you thank you
to Ignacio and Iya. Some people are ecstatic today, some
are sad today. But everyone could agree that nachos are awesome.
Oh yeah, let's share.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Some, right, you know. Have you guys ever seen it's
a clip I think from I watch a show where
it all still goes forever Carnal. I think it's it
was either.
Speaker 2 (06:26):
It was either community or what's the show where everyone
did fantasy football together?
Speaker 1 (06:31):
The league? The league?
Speaker 2 (06:32):
It was one of those shows where someone got no,
I'm sorry, it was King of Queens. Someone got mad
that you can't take the middle nacho that has the
biggest clump of cheese. That's like the nucleus of the nachos. Like,
you can't be the jabbroni that comes in and goes
for the four chips that are connected to the globe.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
That's the best, that's the best.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Almost you got to politely like work around that big glob.
What's better that random curly fry in your fries or
that awesome nacho glob.
Speaker 4 (07:04):
Which came out first Saving Silverman or that episode of
King of Queens. Because in the movie Saving Silverman at
Jack Black and there's you know, Jason, no, no, no different, Jason,
they talk about the nachos, the nacho clump.
Speaker 2 (07:19):
Oh, it's all one nacho. It's all one nacho. If
you just pick it up, you can't be the guy.
That's the lesson to be learned here. Forget Trump or
Kamala or anything of substance. We're talking nachos, guys, and
you can't take the nucleus. You can't take the nacho clump.
And today was the day nachos were invented seventy one
years ago.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Changed the game. Actually I'm sorry, eighty one years ago
changed the game. Where does it rank in football food?
Speaker 2 (07:44):
It's up there, Danny goes. When you think about it, it
could be a hole in the wall or a chain restaurant.
What's going to be consistently on every appetizer menu? Wings, nachos, yep,
maybe mazzarella.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
Si Yeah, yep.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
That's pretty amazing when you think about it all. Because
they should make a Hulu movie about this guy. Why
so spot could debate it like you did the uh
the game. Gloria needs to get on this stat lie,
he stole he stole that valley? How is there not
of all the dumb food documentaries I watch on like
the History Channel, like The Food That Built America? How
is it not a special on Ignacio? By the way
(08:17):
you look him up, you can see that guy. You
owe him some respect today.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
Yeah, but it looks like a picture that should be
on someone's old friend in the eighteen hundred.
Speaker 2 (08:23):
I mean it's an old picture. So anyway, what what
a picture is oval? That means it's an old picture.
Thank you guys, and thanks for celebrating Nacho Day with us.
Speaker 1 (08:34):
But you got it to him? What do you got there?
I was saying, hey, hey, what are you doing if
you get the nacho stuck together? And that's one nacho.
Speaker 2 (08:46):
That Jack Black ties together because Jack Black played who
he played?
Speaker 1 (08:51):
Who not Bray? Here you go there it is.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Yeah, well, hopefully you're having hopefully you're having a bitcoin
t take a look at your cryptough. Hey, spot's gonna
get to midwek major. But I did want to bring
up one baseball story before we get into a little
midweek major. In Week ten of the NFL, a lot
of Wan Soto news, I'm sure in Covino's feed because
he's a Yankees fan and I'm a Mets fan, So
(09:17):
of course I'm gonna get the yo. Uncle Steve, Steve
Cohen's gonna spend whatever he can. I gotta ask, whether
it's football, baseball, basketball, your sport of choice, do you
ever get upset if the player leaves your team? But
it's clearly because well, they're making a business choice the
(09:37):
most money. Like I know you were really but her
because we've been friends a long time. When Robbie Cano
left the Yankees to go to the Mariners, you felt
like betrayed. Well, it was also a time where the
Yankees had this level of prestige to pinstripes. He could
have been the face, the next face of the Yankees,
and the fans loved him. It's not like they were
(09:58):
offering him chump change, but they were also offering him
to be part of a winning tradition, a pride for organization.
They would offer him the face of the franchise. It's
New York City. You're not asking a guy to move
to some crappy city at the time, right, So you
have to factor in all those things. And he clearly
chased the bag and karma worked against him. He battled injury.
(10:19):
He was never the same in Seattle. He's never the
same with your Mets or the SpongeBob SquarePants that he
played for. Later on, he had an amazing offseason this
past year in Mexico. I don't know if anyone followed that,
but Robbie Cano was never the same guy, and you
could say that's karma. I don't think any decision should
be based solely on money, and no matter whether you
(10:41):
play professional sports or you're just a guy who works
at the factory, you know what's best for your family,
what's best for your living situation. There's so many factors,
school systems. Is it always about the bag? If it is,
I think that says a lot about your character. No, agreed,
one hundred percent priorities. And I don't just say this
because we're happy here at Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1 (11:03):
It's a lesson that we learned.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
If you know, if a competitor was like Covino and Rich,
we'll give you a little more money to go somewhere else,
I'd say, little more money, no thanks, I'm happy.
Speaker 1 (11:13):
I love our crew, we work with good people. I
feel comfortable. Money. You can't refuse.
Speaker 2 (11:18):
Money is a different story, life changing change, the stars
of my family and future generations to come. Yeah, that's different, right,
you might have no choice in that in that case,
But a little more money, I don't know. Man, you
got a factor in so many different things.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
You know.
Speaker 2 (11:36):
If you're talking like a regular person's job and now
we'll give you five percent more, ten percent more, that
should never be the real reason why you make a
move right.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
No way, man. I'll tell you what.
Speaker 2 (11:48):
Rich and I worked the job for the money, and
we were unhappy. And if they came back again and said, yo,
well double what you're making now is kind of strong,
But i'd have to factor in. Well, I wasn't happy.
He said, do you say double lady?
Speaker 5 (12:06):
Guys?
Speaker 1 (12:06):
All right, double lady Danny g nice knowing you. Yeah, well,
stay in touch. Let me know how cold is when
he grows up.
Speaker 2 (12:14):
But I wouldn't solely go just for the money because
I realized that I was just doing it for the
check and it wasn't fun at all. It wasn't good
for my mental health. And I'm not one of those,
you know, cry babies about work, but it really was
a tough work situation. It was stressful, it took up
a majority of our day. I wouldn't chase the bag
(12:36):
again if that opportunity came. We did that just for
the money. So ask yourself this question. You're one so
to And by the way, I still agree. Even though
the Yankees fell short, his at bat in the ALCS
was a top three at bat of all time, all time.
When he sized up every pitch and then went yard.
(12:57):
That was a that was a masterclass in hitting. It
was Now again, sports is a little different because you
have a shelf life, right, I get that. And you
could also say, well, there's no shame in negotiating to
to to raise up your worth and your value. Right,
that's just good bargaining, that's just good negotiating, And I
(13:19):
feel like that applies to everybody. You want to get
the most out of your time. But I think you
should try to do that where you thrive the most
and where you're the happiest. And if you could get
a few extra bucks by trying to see what else
people are trying to offer, by seeking your value, I
don't see any crime in that. So I don't see
(13:40):
any harm in what Soto's doing. But if he's truly
happy in New York, then I think you stay in
New York. He was accepted there. Now there what it
does a crosstown team like the Dodgers, let's be honest,
reaped the benefits that Otani. All he had to do
is just how to drive up the coast a little bit,
drive up the hot the free, and I think that's
(14:01):
what makes his case different. And I think the Mets
also makes Sodo's situation different.
Speaker 1 (14:06):
Still New York, so but it is a different franchise.
Speaker 2 (14:08):
Let's say, Wan Soto, I'm just pulling out numbers because
I'll give you a generic offer that i've seen.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
If they saying six hundred eleven, so for thirteen years.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Let's just give a generic number ten year, five hundred
fifty million year for ten years. But they are saying
thirteen years. It could be more, but let's just say
just for the to make the numbers easy. If I
said Yankees offer Juan Soto ten years, five hundred million,
fifty million dollars a year for ten years to play baseball, Wow,
what a world. If the San Francisco Giants are like,
(14:40):
oh yeah, ten years, five twenty five, who is it
for you or me to be like stay? It's only
only twenty five million different, twenty five million dollars in
more than most people will see that. It's all ego driven, honestly,
because at that point, how much money do you need?
And that's just your agent trying to get every penny
out of this organization for their own ego. You know,
(15:04):
I don't think that these things should factor. If he
doesn't want to live in San Francisco again, what's best
for your family, what's best for your living situation, All
these things should factor just as much as how much
money I'm getting you Damn Bayer, Danny g you guys
are both married dudes with lovely families. Have you had
the conversations with the wifees of, hey, if it's Fox
(15:27):
or ESPN or CBS or NBC or play by play
or anything in the sports world, do you have like
those preliminary conversations of like, here's the money you would
have to take, missus Bayer for us to uproot the
fam and move. Have we all had those covers? How
about longevity? I think your job safety and your longevity
(15:49):
with that company is also as important. How many more
years are you getting? No, No, I haven't had those conversations.
Speaker 6 (15:59):
Yeah, they like to get too personal this stuff, so yeah, yeah,
I mean my situation is a little unique because we
have a teenage daughter who shares time with her dad
here in southern California. So until she is graduating high school,
say we can't, we can't up you know, up our lives, which.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
By the way, is another layer of this that a
lot of people don't realize. What if a player is
playing closer to his actual hometown and he's like, yeah,
I could go chase money, but you know, like my kids,
grandparents and cousins are like, you know, a city away
opposed to you know, let's just say. Wan Soto's roots
are in New York, and he's like, you know, I've
(16:41):
met people, My family feels comfortable.
Speaker 1 (16:44):
Now you have a lot at Dominican support there, that's
for sure. Where am I going to go to? The
Washington Heights area?
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Basically, the question is based on the offers we're seeing
on the table, the projected offers of one hundred and
thirteen million? Was it one hundred and what million? For
thirteen years? Do you blame your favorite players? Lots of
millions for thirteen years? Do you blame your favorite players
for taking the money? I think if again, if you're
(17:11):
a crappy organization, right, and you know that guy deserves
better treatment like Otani, you think that guy should have
stayed with the Angels. That dude deserve to win. It's
kind of like goodwill hunting. You do wish well for
those people who deserve it, Like nah Man, Otani gave
us everything he could with the Angels. Go and win
(17:33):
a championship, buddy, You've earned it and you deserve it.
You gotta want these people to thrive and strive. If
they're really chasing a championship, that's different. That's not chasing
the bag. That's chasing the chip, and that's what sports
is all about. So you really have to ask yourself, well,
what are they doing and if you know that it
was just for the money, and with Canoe that was
a great example, that's exactly what it was.
Speaker 1 (17:54):
Beat it.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
I lost respect for you. You're right about it being
a more than ten year deal. I'm here in thirteen
because he's twenty five and there's gonna be a deal
that they're saying would get him from twenty five to
thirty eight, a thirteen year deal. But from everything I'm reading,
the starting point just say the starting point is ten years,
five hundred million. Wow, who's willing to go from there?
Speaker 5 (18:19):
Right?
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Yeah? At the last number I saw was six hundred million.
Yeah was that? It's like six hundred thirty Yeah years? Insane? Yeah,
I mean he's twenty five. You also have to keep
that in mind.
Speaker 2 (18:29):
So my point is if the guy's already set up
like Soto set up, they could win in New York.
It's not like there's some they just played in the
World Series. If he was playing for some Dodo team,
I had no shot. If you're Mike Trout, if you're
my Yeah, again, if you're like a Mike Trout, You're like, yeah, man,
I'm sort of wasting my career here with the Angels
(18:50):
and Anaheim. Then you could see that guy wanting to
leave and go for the victory, for the legacy, for
the ring. Those are things that are much different, in
my opinion, Rich, than chasing the money.
Speaker 1 (19:03):
They're close in New York.
Speaker 2 (19:04):
What do you mean they're close meaning they a couple
of adjustments in their playoff team right possibly back in
the World Series.
Speaker 1 (19:11):
Exactly.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
Yeah, that's that's that. That would be a reason if
you are a player that cares. And from what I'm reading,
according to ESPN yesterday, Juan Soto's number one priority and
this is all lip service, I believe, but number one
priority winning?
Speaker 1 (19:25):
Does he gotta say that right?
Speaker 2 (19:26):
Well, then he shouldn't looked too far away. I don't
know how much I believe in the uh half.
Speaker 6 (19:32):
Of me believes that Rich. He was the last Yankee
out there watching the Dodgers celebration.
Speaker 2 (19:37):
She was I respected that. Wow, spot, did you just
go get us day? We got nachos?
Speaker 1 (19:41):
Everybody, Wait before you take it first flight, who do
you have to say a prayer for?
Speaker 5 (19:46):

Is it Ignacio anayam. Cheers man, cheers, not your cheers. Nice.
I'll grab one of those boys. Ah in tribute. You
know what, spot get your bide. I'm taking the nucleus,

Iowa, Sam is.
Speaker 2 (21:59):
Here, Dan Byer Spotty getting ready for midweek major We
do it every Wednesday, the biggest stories in the world
of sports and pop culture. But right now, Rich I
do want to wrap up your thought of do you
blame your favorite player for taking the money?
Speaker 1 (22:14):
I do.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
It's a weak ass Look, it's a weak ass character trait.
And we know from experience you've been there and done that.
It's not about the money. You're so many other factors
involved in these decisions. And look, if you need it,
I understand, But I think Wan Soto is doing I
with the Yankees. But that's why the classic and best
(22:36):
example here is Shoheo Tani. I think he's a great
example because he still kept his honor and his respect.
He didn't leave his state, he didn't leave the city.
He just went to a different team. He didn't necessarily
chase the money. He chased the ring. That's how I
look at it. Whether that's true or not, I think
that guy deserved to win. He chased the ring. He
(22:58):
stayed in the same place for the most part. I
think there's a difference that if in your first opportunity
to leave, you chase that's a little selfish, Like you
chase the money, right, But if later in your career you're.
Speaker 1 (23:10):
Like, I'm just good, I'm gonna.
Speaker 2 (23:12):
Go where I think I have a chance to win.
And get money. I think the perception is different. I
think Otani was at the right time of his career.
You saw him, dude, he tried everything he could with
Mike Trout to make that team a winner. And yeah,
I think at this point we've seen sodo In fact
that don't you feel a little sad for Trout and
his loyalty. Loyalty is not gonna get him any legacy.
(23:32):
I promise you that our buddy might hit us up
and he goes. When it comes to this, a little
more money Sometimes a little more money means a little
more insecurity. So money security could mean insecurity in other
areas of your life. Like it's not like they said,
I've heard one guy say, I forget his name, but
mo money more problem.
Speaker 1 (23:50):
I've heard that. I've heard that.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
All right, Well, hey, happy National NA Show Day and
let's get into it.
Speaker 1 (23:54):
Mid Week Major.
Speaker 8 (23:57):
Covino and Rich gets you over the MIDDE love the

We definitely lead here.
Speaker 8 (24:14):

Des It is about that time you say Rich duvas.
Speaker 6 (24:36):
When you hear the horns hit, you know you've made
it to the middle of the week. Before we pass
things over to the number one and only host of
the segment. We like to yeah, thank you, Spotty for
those nachos. We'd like to roll those big red love
dice over there in the main studio to see who
gets the first take.
Speaker 2 (24:50):
I just rolled a two. I rolled the snake guyes well,
my eleven wins, though eleven on certain boards, those are
worth a lot rich to get to go first.
Speaker 6 (25:01):
And now, Ladies and Germs, The One and Only the Man,
the Myth, the mini series, the most famous person from
Scotch Plains New Jersey besides Judy Bloom.
Speaker 1 (25:10):
Spotty boy, that's funny. Am I really not allowed to
talk about politics? This is hot?
Speaker 7 (25:14):
This is hot off the press, Hot off the press
happened today, Rich with your forty nine ers. Nick Bosa
himself was asked about crashing as you remember what was it?
Last week brought Perty's interview with his maga hat maga maga. Well,
as we know, the NFL prohibits players from wearing any
personal and non approved messages on the field or during interviews. Well,
(25:36):
when he was asked, he said that hey, if it comes,
it comes. Speaking about the fine, it was well worth it.
He does have yet to be contacted by the NFL
or receive a fine, but he is prepared for it.
He didn't really comment on the election results because he
was asked today, but he did have a kind of
a smug look on his face, So I imagine he's happy.
Speaker 1 (25:57):
Midweker major.
Speaker 2 (25:58):
I think it's I think it's mid okay because you know,
guess what, more people voted for Donald Trump than Kamala Harris.
So to think it's like crazy did an NFL player
supported you know, the Republican candidate. Nick Boilsa is gonna
be happy as well as seventy something other million years voted.
A lot of people just weren't allowed to express their
feelings and express the fact that they were voting for Trump.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
That's why people are so shocked and surprised by it, because.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
If you admitted that you're voting for Trump, you were
deemed like this bad person. Yeah, and it seems like
a lot of people voted more than you thought.
Speaker 1 (26:30):
Mick Bosa owned it.
Speaker 2 (26:31):
I think it's sort of mid as well.
Speaker 1 (26:34):
Spot how much was fine?
Speaker 2 (26:35):
Now, that's the thing like looking at whatever it is,
I'm sure it's chump changed for an NFL player.
Speaker 1 (26:40):
Last time I.
Speaker 7 (26:41):
Check caliber, I believe the finds were somewhere around like
twelve thousand for the first offense.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
Okay, that's fine a lot.
Speaker 2 (26:47):
I think it was like twelve thirteen thousand or something
like that, which is nothing to get his little point.
Who was recently we have the player that were the
EyeBlack that said something yeah that was I think that
was the third thirteen yeah for the first defense.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
So for him, that's that's zilch so mid story.
Speaker 7 (27:03):
He got his point across over to the other other
eye roll the folks. Travis Kelsey, of course, sticking up
for his big bro Jason after he was involved in
that verbalification turned into phone smashed last week. In the
p I latest episode of New Heights, of course, opened
up addressing the moment, Travis acknowledged how the magnitude of
(27:26):
his relationship with Taylor so just taking a toll on Jason,
uh and feel, but feels it isn't as big of
a deal as everyone's making it out to be. He
went on to add that if some quote effing clown
came up to talk about your family and you reacted
in a way to he reacted in a way to
defend his family, and he used the word, he regretted
(27:47):
h and he's owned up to it. Jason, of course,
addressed the incident on Monday Night Football this past week,
saying he regrets saying that midweeker major this.
Speaker 1 (27:55):
Said nothing burger okay? This week?
Speaker 2 (27:58):
Speaking of burgers, I think you told me to avoid politics.
Can feel the guilt burgers that Travis has for putting
his brother in these situations. I mean, they're reaping the
benefits of it, don't get get it wrong, but there's
some negative that comes along with it.
Speaker 1 (28:13):
And we witnessed it, yeah this weekend.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
But you got to I always say when it comes
to these social things, I always ask myself who's offended,
who's mad? And I've only found one person that's mad
at Travis. I'm sorry, Jason Kelsey, and that's Harvey Levin
at TMZ.
Speaker 1 (28:27):
He's the only guy that I saw I'd be like, oh,
you know, we usure be held accountable.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Due I think most other people would have been held
accountable in a different way. But on the flip side
of that, you could say, well, we all know Jason
Kelsey for being and love Jason Kelsey for being the
every guy, so maybe he's earned that pass in this situation,
and we all played dumb to like like these.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
Are doing better than anybody. I know, you know, we're
professionals at that.
Speaker 5 (28:52):
It's not.
Speaker 2 (28:53):
But it's a matter of context matters, and it actually
was factored into this situation, which was kind of refreshing
because he's when stories like this happened. Context never matters,
and it did in this one. And I think that
Travis just feels a little bad that, because of his popularity,
put his brother in this situation.
Speaker 7 (29:10):
Yeah, the sorry, you know, Dodgers not only cost the
Yankees their twenty eighth World Series title, but also cost
a fan it's official two fingers. As you recall, the
video went viral of the Dodgers fan lighting off fireworks
at the postgame celebration, and you saw it went off
just a little bit too early, exploded. The guy was
(29:31):
trying to walk off an explosion of his hand. Well,
his father, Kevin King Senior, announced officially that his twenty
five year old son, Kevin King Junior, lost his index
and middle finger on his left hand. I underwent two surgery,
still has to undergo another surgery. No word on whether
or when he'll be back at work, but a GoFundMe
(29:52):
has been set up to help with his medical bills,
which have surpassed ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 1 (29:56):
Maybe should sell popcorn Midweek or Major? I think it's U.
I think it's major. It's a reminder for you know,
no offense to this kid, A.
Speaker 2 (30:04):
Reminder for dopes not to play with fireworks, right, I mean, like,
what are we doing? Your team wins and your lighting
off explosives then also you almost blow your hand off.
Speaker 1 (30:15):
I mean, I'll give this guy a high three. I
don't know what to tell you. Was this the Dodger's
eighth championship? But it was? Right?
Speaker 2 (30:24):
So he has as many fingers as championships. Maybe it's
the curse of this guy. Maybe you'll never win, that's it.
Maybe you'll never see nine because this bozo went and
took things too far.
Speaker 1 (30:37):
Right, Now, that's the curse of the king.
Speaker 2 (30:39):
It's the greatest point you've ever made, so I think
it's a major story. In fact, let's go Yankees, eight trophies,
eight fingers. Hey, Like we said about the political situation,
you go back to the to the room and fix
your problems Yankees next year.
Speaker 6 (30:54):
This twenty five year old never see the old school cartoons.
Everybody knows you put a trail of gunpowder next to
the explosives, or light it and throw it. Don't just
like look at it lighting. Don't get me wrong, I
feel bad from no one hold it in your hands, put.
Speaker 1 (31:10):
It on the ground and light it. You don't have
to hold it just to light it anyway, next all right.
Speaker 7 (31:16):
As we discussed or has been mentioned, Bob cost has
officially stepped away from calling play by play, especially after
the extensive backlash he received this past postseason. Wilkassa sat
down with MLB Network's Tom Berducci earlier this week to
talk about the decision and didn't hold back on the
reason he decided to step away.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
He said, I felt that.
Speaker 7 (31:34):
I couldn't consistently reach my past standard. I have too
much regard for the game, for the craft, and whatever
my own standard has been to hit beneath my lifetime
batting average. I just felt like the past couple of
years I couldn't quite reach that. So he's acknowledging that
he has been slipping a little bit in recent years,
kind of echoing the sentiment that a lot of people
have been having watching it, that it's sad, but at
(31:54):
least he's acknowledging it, stepping away Midweker major.
Speaker 1 (31:56):
It's mature, but I hate it. So it's a weak.
Speaker 2 (32:00):
Because I love Bob Costas and we talked about what
a great legend he is, but the fact that he
had to man up and be like, I'm not the
broadcaster I once was in regards to play by play,
So it makes me sad a little bit.
Speaker 1 (32:13):
But you know it doesn't.
Speaker 2 (32:15):
I think he's taken the high road because he's Bob Costas,
and you know, we did speculate. I remember Dan Bayer saying, man,
maybe he did lose a little bit of speed on
his fastball. I don't think that was really even the
factor whether or not he did. I think the world
changed too much around him where our expectations were different
and he can't He's not able to meet our current
day expectations, our tastes of change. That's all all right,
(32:39):
thank you spot, Thanks guys, appreciate you.
Speaker 1 (32:41):
We'll wait no more time for midweek major. But oh,
next week, what was your next story? Give me that
odd story? What was it?
Speaker 7 (32:47):
I was going to be either about Donald Trump talking
about Kaitlyn Clark in the pay in the WNBA or
the McDonald's ice cream machines.
Speaker 1 (32:54):
Now could be fixed. Whoa, that's a major story and
you led with what you led with.
Speaker 4 (32:58):
Sorry, Donald Trump. Kaylyn Clark came up in the same discussion. Yeah,
I know nothing of this salivating.
Speaker 1 (33:06):
That's like a major story. Let's go to Dan.
Speaker 9 (33:10):
I could offer suggestions for more time, but it would
probably take out of my time, so we don't want
to do that.
Speaker 1 (33:16):
Yeah.
Speaker 9 (33:17):
Panthers head coach Dave Canalis said today that Bryce Young
is going to start at quarterback in Germany this Sunday
against the New York Giants. It'll be the third straight
start for Young, getting a win last week against New Orleans.
Cowboys and Eagles will play in Week ten of the
Eagles side of things.

not practice because of a hamstring strain. Tennan Dallas Goddard
practiced fully today, while Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley got
a day of rest. On the Cowboys side of things,
Michael Parsons was able to practice on a limited basis.
Mike McCarthy put him on a snap count today, but
he could return for Week ten from his ankle injury.
Speaker 5 (33:51):
Well.
Speaker 9 (33:51):
The NFL Networks is Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott's hamstring injury
was diagnosed as a hamstring tendon that was partially torn
off the bone. The full recovery time for this type
of injury, according to Jane Slater, is typically more than
four weeks, so the Dak Prescott injury a little bit
more significant than maybe first believed. Forty nine Ers running
back Christian McCaffrey limited in practice today but was feeling
(34:14):
no pain as he comes back from an achilles injury.
Bengals and Ravens will start Week ten tomorrow night. Ravens
tight end Isaiah Likely has been ruled out. Quarterback Lamar
Jackson he's off the injury reporting ready to go well.
Bengals wide receiver t Higgins is considered doubtful for that game.
When other NFL note, New Commanders corner Marshawn Lattimore miss
practice today with a hamstring injury. On New Lion's edge
(34:36):
rushers Adaria Smith out because of a personal matter. Dodgers
GM Brandon Gome says they hope to sun manager Dave
Roberts to a contract extension at some point this offseason.
The Padres did sign manager Mike Shilt to an extension
today that goes through twenty twenty seven.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
Guys, back to you.

Eric. You're on what's up, buddy?
Speaker 3 (38:54):
Hey, thanks for taking my call. I didn't get through
yesterday about people that aren't and I didn't hear Dolly
Parton or Dave Girl.
Speaker 1 (39:06):
You know Dolly Parton cross Dave, Yeah, because of something
he did or admitted.
Speaker 2 (39:13):
Yeah, he admitted that he had an extra marital affair
and got a woman pregnant. And there's so many women
out there that were so disappointed, Like Dave roll there's
nothing sacred now, So I feel like, yeah, Dolly part
I'll stick with the Dolly Parton answer because I don't
think anyone has ever complained about her. I'll give you
(39:35):
that one we talked about. Since it's a divisive time
in our world. There was election day yesterday, we said, well,
what are some things we could all agree on? So
thanks for participating again at Covino and Rich.
Speaker 7 (39:50):
Wait a second, I just got a text from Joe
Burrow asking me to root for the Bengals tomorrow night.
Speaker 1 (39:53):
Oh now you're getting now you're getting NFL. Come on,
oh man, the spam just changed.
Speaker 2 (39:59):
You stop sending me Spamoe Man Burrow, don't forget to
wear your your Bengals whites tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (40:08):
Broke Burrow hitting you up. You know, I want to
bring up one quick thing before we get the hell
out of.
Speaker 2 (40:15):
Bronnie James. I don't know how this was even a
headline that he played a mean seven seconds the other day.
That man who said to him what NBA player said
to Bronnie James, Ya, you don't even need to shower?
Speaker 1 (40:26):
You played too.
Speaker 6 (40:26):
It was Anthony Richard. I'm sorry, Anthony. Yeah, forget those
two confused.
Speaker 2 (40:32):
Bronnie James since his girlfriend flowers in a love note
during his first road trip in the NBA.
Speaker 1 (40:38):
And he must have did something.
Speaker 2 (40:40):
But you know, it brings up the theory that the
other day, Danny, we were sitting prepping for the show,
we saw some dude walk by with a huge bouquet
of flowers.
Speaker 1 (40:48):
Why is the assumption is always what did he do?
Speaker 6 (40:52):
Because it was like it took two workers to carry
those flowers. That was like a g in roses.
Speaker 1 (40:57):
What did you do when you see some guy?
Speaker 5 (41:00):
Why?
Speaker 1 (41:00):
Why is that?
Speaker 5 (41:01):
Like?
Speaker 1 (41:01):
Why why are you assuming guys just do dumb things?
Because they do? Because every time you see a guy
carrying flowers, my first instinct is a guy.
Speaker 2 (41:08):
It's a guy's thought to be like he did something.
He's trying to get out of the doghouse. But you
do get those smiles from like women and older women
who think you're a sweetheart because they know you're beating
flowers to somebody and you walk with a sense of
pride like I'm the greatest guy.
Speaker 1 (41:22):
Women look at you like, oh.
Speaker 2 (41:23):
My god, damn. Guys look at you like what you
do float? You're floating by them, and you smile like, Yep,
I'm pretty great.
Speaker 1 (41:28):
Thanks lay Either.
Speaker 6 (41:29):
That or women walk the other direction because they assume
you're a stalker.
Speaker 1 (41:32):
Yeah, no, it is. It's a weird feeling when you're
walking around that yeah up.
Speaker 2 (41:37):
No, he it must have been like her best friend,
but I must have been like scandalous.
Speaker 1 (41:42):
That was nice of Brownie James. He misses his girlfriend.
Speaker 2 (41:45):
Yeah, and instead of making fun of him, be like, hey,
maybe you should take a page out of that book.
When was the last time you did something nice for
the lady in your life just because you missed her. Right, Yeah,
that's what they would say. Don't do it when you
make a mistake. Do it on a random day like
y changing lives, Lance, romance, everybody, that's me. All right,
we'll see you guys tomorrow. Have a great Wednesday night.
I know you're gonna watch a Golden Bachelorette men tell
(42:06):
