Speaker 2 (03:12):
Yeah, we got glabor. We're going to talk about gross
gluttons in the NFL, A lot of NFL today. We're
going to talk girly drinks. We're going to talk the Jets.
I want to start with the Jets before I tell
you a little observation from my travels. I gotta tell
you the Jets, who we have been very hard on,
they stink. They stink, stink, stunk. Aaron Rodgers, the failed experiment.

(03:37):
DeVante Adams is like, why did I even do this?
What's going on?

Speaker 1 (03:40):
They stink worse than those pennies the gym teacher would
give you back in high school.

Speaker 2 (03:45):
Oh it's field hockey week, No thanks.

Speaker 1 (03:47):
The funk of forty years man, People's bel from nineteen
sixty something.

Speaker 2 (03:53):
The Jets stink more. I'll do a call back to
yesterday show. The Jets stink more than that kid that
would put his dirty, sweaty T shirt in the same
plastic bag for a month during pe class.

Speaker 1 (04:05):
Stink more than that freedo feeling, that freedo smell you
get at a gym, like in.

Speaker 2 (04:09):
A locker room like your dog's pause, or like.

Speaker 1 (04:12):
A little kids jumpy jump, because all their little featsme
like cheetos than so stink.

Speaker 2 (04:18):
The Jets stink. But I'll give the Jets credit for
one thing, and one thing only. I want to thank
the Jets.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
Stink like Pablo Sandoval after a hot yoga class.

Speaker 2 (04:29):
My goodness, stink. I gotta thank the Jets for one
thing and one thing only. They got in my head
last year during something we all watched, Hard Knocks HBO. Yeah,
so after tonight show, I'm in New York City for
a day by myself before I meet up with you.

(04:49):
And some of the guys were doing a little weekend
guys trip. We're going to the Dolphins Raiders game, a
little South beach hang. I'm in New York for forty
eight hours. No one's really available on a Wednesday night.
Like a lot of my friends like, yeah, dude, I'm sorry, man.
I saw you like a couple of weeks ago when
you were in town for the Mets. Yeah, I can't tonight.
So I said, hmm, what could I do in New

(05:11):
York City by myself and not get in trouble? I
bought one ticket I'm gonna go see Back to the
Future on Broadway right after the show tonight.

Speaker 1 (05:20):
Are you serious?

Speaker 2 (05:21):
I bought one ticket, one ticket in the orchestra. You know,
it's like going to a sporting event. If you get
one tickets, that drops the prices. I'm sitting orchestra for
eighty buckeroos.

Speaker 1 (05:31):
Dude, Wow, you know what that means for the rest
of the weekend, because I am meeting up with Rich
in Miami tomorrow. The rest of the weekend, I got
to hear about how great Doc Emmett Brown was, great Scott,
how fantastic Marty McFly was, and man, you should have
seen Biff. He was fantastic. But have you seen Biff
on Broadway? For all I know, it's gonna stink. I mean,

(05:52):
do you trust anything the Jets say at this point?
My goodness, George McFly, what fantastic. Hey, I'm gonna have
to hear Rich's review for the rest of the weekend.
But you're right. In Hard Knocks they all went to
see it as a team and they were sort of
blown away by it.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
So with that said, Danny, g I was sam if
you were in New York City by yourself and had
no plans. Is it a week move or so cool
to be like, yeah, I'm gonna go see Back to
the Future on Broadway?

Speaker 1 (06:21):
Well riches score is still a thing?

Speaker 2 (06:23):
Or no scores?

Speaker 1 (06:25):
Is that still a thing?

Speaker 2 (06:27):
Well, I mean I didn't. I'm not gonna tell you
what I'm gonna do after the Broadway. I'm just telling
you what I'm doing from like seven to nine.

Speaker 1 (06:33):
You know, wow, Hey, now that's funny.

Speaker 3 (06:38):
Man.

Speaker 2 (06:39):
You and I have talked in the past about going
to sporting events, concerts events by yourself. And I'm like,
you know what, seven to nine, seven thirty to nine
thirty probably a two hour show. Who doesn't love Back
to the Future?

Speaker 1 (06:50):
Is not that? Feel like? I think it's a boss move.
I really do. I think that's dope, cause who doesn't
love that movie? I've heard great things, Like we said
on Hard Knocks that's we're freaking out about how great
it was. They went to see it as a team.
If you missed that episode, and my only I said,
I guess question would be I can't even watch a

(07:13):
Netflix series without running it by my girlfriend. It could
be anything. It could be Hulu's Aaron Hernandez story. I'll
watch it and my girlfriend. I'll be like, why didn't
you ask me first? So don't you feel a little
weird going to see that without your wife? Who you
know would want to see that?

Speaker 2 (07:32):
Anytime I come to New York with my wife, ninety
percent of the time it's with my kids and the
whole family, and that just want to be the one
I'd probably end up going to see like Lion King
or something.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
All right, well, fair, it's just a fair question. But yeah,
for sure.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
It's a reminder if you're ever out of town for
work and listen, I'm not breaking the glass. I'm not
like some visionary I just want to throw it out
there because sometimes we forget you're in a random town
for a business trip and you're like, yeah, what am
I gonna do to that? I guess I'll scratch why
I asked in the hotel room and look at smut
on my phone. No, no, no, you could do other things.
And I have decided to take the advice of the

(08:06):
worst team in the NFL. In fact, I don't know
why I'm taking their advice because.

Speaker 1 (08:10):
Rich is gonna be walking the streets. They say, the city.

Speaker 4 (08:13):
Lots of rajo all broad Way, a broad wait, taking
it in a crisp New York City air, looking at
the lights, feeling like you're going back to the future.

Speaker 1 (08:26):
You're gonna be loving it rich, You're gonna be loving
this show. And then you know what, it is a
real reminder of how cheap life is when it's just you. You,
You're like, oh, man, paying for just me is great.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
Danny g I gotta ask. I mean, you got step kids,
you got a little baby, you got a wife. I
was sam you ro solo? Often do you realize that advantage?
Cavino's right, Like when I went to the Mets Dodgers
playoff game at Dodger Stadium. I took my wife and
my kids. As we pointed out on the show, that
was like a couple of thousand dollar day. I went

(09:02):
to New York to the games by myself. It was
like a two hundred dollars day.

Speaker 1 (09:06):
Dude, If you don't travel for work, paying for yourself,
just for yourself is like a lost art that you
probably haven't experienced in years. The only time I get
to experience that is like a work trip, and it's
a beautiful feeling, and it's also a reminder. You're like, oh,
even though things are a little more expensive now. Lunch
is only like thirty bucks. I mean that sounds expensive,

(09:27):
but it really is. But if it's you and your
wife and your kids, that's like one hundred and thirty bucks.
You know, it's like, wow, I go liberating.

Speaker 2 (09:34):
This is chick fil a? Could you know? Chick fil
A for my wife and me and my two kids.
Chick fil A is like sixty bucks.

Speaker 1 (09:41):
That's what I mean. But you realize when you're by
yourself that you could have a nice time. You can
enjoy the play. But even a drink, even a little
dinner afterward, even a lap dance is not that expensive
when it's just you.

Speaker 5 (09:53):
Yeah. When we keep our receipts from our business trips
like Seattle, I was adding.

Speaker 1 (09:59):
Them up and I'm like, that's it because it was
just me.

Speaker 3 (10:01):
Do you But you're right?

Speaker 5 (10:03):
In Chipotle, Rich, we went there a couple of nights ago,
split a bowl, my wife, he and I got one
for our teenager. Thirty nine bucks.

Speaker 1 (10:11):
Ridiculous. Ridiculous. Hey, Rich, do you buy back to the
Future T shirt or something? It could be one of
those nerds I.

Speaker 2 (10:17):
Think I might be. Yeah, listen, it would only be
one person, even if it's an overpriced forty dollars T shirt.
Guess what, I'm one guy today?

Speaker 1 (10:24):
Hey, Rich, what happens if this replaces Hamilton for you?
Because Hamilton's your favorite?

Speaker 2 (10:29):
I am Hamilton.

Speaker 1 (10:30):
Hear what happens? Like your whole identity changes? It could
change tonight. Are you going to wear your orange life vest? Yeah? Rich,
let me tell you, yeah, justin I haven't trigud about
the Navy.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
Of all all the movies of our childhood. Back to
the Future's top five I would imagine for any guy
thirty five to fifty something, right, I mean, if you
don't put Back to the Future in your top five,
you must be on crack or something.

Speaker 1 (10:54):
I would imagine that most people, this is for real,
real talk. Most people listening to the Fox Sports radio
had no idea it was a Broadway play, and one
of the first times I heard about it was on
Hard Knocks. And the Jets are so weak. I'm not
saying they probably have a bad gauge of what's good
and what's not, but I'm wishing you a great time, Rich, so.

Speaker 2 (11:16):
They you have it. I figured i'd bring it up
because we heard about it from the Jets but like
you just said, I don't know how much you could
trust the Jets, but I.

Speaker 1 (11:23):
Don't remind me you thought they were going to be good.

Speaker 2 (11:25):
There's no shame in your game if you're out of town. Hey,
let's say a business trip takes you to Minnesota, go
see the Tea Wolves by yourself. Is there any shame
in that? Hey, your conference is over at six pm.
You have a night in Minnesota solo. Your options are
sit in your hotel and do nothing, or like, don
let me get one solo ticket. There's something to be

(11:45):
said about listen. I love hanging around a lot of people.
You know, you make fun of me to a park.
You make fun of me constantly for being the guy
that's always having parties hanging out with people. Always need
to be around friends. There is a fun art to
doing some thing solo, and the business trip is a
perfect opportunity. Oh way, dude, I'm an Anaheim randomly on

(12:06):
a business trip. Let me go catch an Angels game.
There's always a way to do something cool.

Speaker 1 (12:11):
I don't make fun of you for having parties and
make fun of you for having no chill whatsoever. That's it,
So have a great time. Keep us posted let us know,
can't wait to hear the review on the Fox Sports
Radio program. No, seriously, I give you. I'll give you
one more reminder in life lesson based on Riches's story
right here. Yeah, you take a movie like Back to

(12:33):
the Future. Even the critics say that this is the
closest thing to a perfect movie. If there is such
a thing, is such a gauge of who is the
a hole in the room, who's the contrarian, Who's the
guy you just can't be friends with? If you say
to so, hey, man, you like Back to the Future
and they say no, that's a great indicator that they

(12:55):
just suck.

Speaker 2 (12:56):
Yeah, you're not gonna like that guy.

Speaker 1 (12:57):
I mean, have you ever met somebody that said no,
I don't, not that I can think of, But I
can think of some people that probably don't like it.

Speaker 2 (13:05):
To me from you don't like Back to the Future,
you're probably the You're the problem. Serious, So anyway, we
move on. I just, uh, I thought of you guys,
because I know we joked about how the Jets raved
about Back to the Future, and as I thought, I.

Speaker 1 (13:21):
Think the Fox Sports Radio Nation would have liked to
hear more about what you're doing after the play. But
that's a cool story, Rich, Well.

Speaker 2 (13:28):
I mean again, solo act who knows what I do?

Speaker 1 (13:32):
What if you get there and is a stand in.

Speaker 2 (13:37):
Well, I mean that doesn't really matter to me because
it's not like it's Michael J.

Speaker 1 (13:40):
Fox anyway. You know, it's like it's gonna be guy
I don't know, or a better guy. You can still
relate that to sports. You go there thinking that your
favorite players play into the superstar of the team's playing,
and they're not. It's always let go.

Speaker 2 (13:52):
I I made that.

Speaker 1 (13:54):
You don't want to know the star to feel a
little bit of disappointment. If there's an understudy, you're like, oh,
this guy had to bring it.

Speaker 2 (14:00):
Bro. I remember being a little boy going to a
Mets game and be like, yeah, Keith Hernandez and I
look up at Chase Stadium scoreboard. It's like first base
number five, Dave Maggot.

Speaker 1 (14:11):
In what magaetting better have a game? So, Rich, I
wish you a good cast and a good time.

Speaker 5 (14:16):
Yeah, Well, back to the future and then Rick's cabaret
from your past.

Speaker 1 (14:20):
There you go.

Speaker 2 (14:20):
You know what, Hey, it sounds like a hell of
a solo night in your city. Tell I'll get you
guys all the details fromorrow. All right, So a lot
of NFL today, and Danny g I thought of you immediately.
I go to lax last night and I'm thinking to myself,
all right, I'm trying to make this painless. I hate

(14:42):
the overnight flight. I want to pass out on this fight.
So you know what I'm gonna I'm gonna make sure
I'm sleeping, so I take the appropriate steps. Sleepy time
for me.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
Step one.

Speaker 2 (14:57):
So I see it the Hudson news stand. They had
uncrustables for two ninety nine Bronco.

Speaker 3 (15:08):
Yo.

Speaker 2 (15:08):
You might say that that's a ripoff, but for airport prices,
I almost felt like that was a steal. I know
that sounds ridiculous. It's a little peanut butter and jelly,
but I feel like at the airport that would be
ten dollars just because it's the airport.

Speaker 1 (15:20):
Yeah, that doesn't sound right. I imagine like a pack
of gum costs to ninety nine at the airport. So
I come on, Sangwich two ninety nine, that's a wheel
of a steal of a deal.

Speaker 2 (15:31):
I mean, at Walmart, at Target, at the supermarket, if
you buy a ten pack of uncrustables is ten dollars,
so they're a dollar each, so I thought three bucks.
I know it sounds ridiculous, it didn't feel that bad.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
Two ninety nine. Yeah.

Speaker 5 (15:44):
One uncrustable at the Burbank Airport is eight ninety nine.

Speaker 2 (15:48):
Jeez, So Danny, I buy one, and I immediately think
of you in Cove because we joked about how the
Denver Broncos claimed to go through seven hundred uncrustables. Was
it a week or a month?

Speaker 1 (16:01):
What was it one week?

Speaker 3 (16:02):
Weekly?

Speaker 1 (16:03):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (16:03):
Weekly? Yeah, so just and that was just the immediate players.
That wasn't counting the rest of the staff.

Speaker 2 (16:09):
So here I am at the airport. I house one
uncrustable in thirty seconds. I'm like, uh, not enough, I
go I go back and get a second one. I
house the second one. As I'm about to go back
for the third one, my wife happens. My wife happens
to FaceTime me with the kids to say good night,

(16:30):
and I'm like, all right, dad, can't be a piece
of crap slop, thank you for calling. You just stopped
me for having my third uncrustable.

Speaker 1 (16:36):
I hope they don't FaceTime you after the play tonight
either So So Rich.

Speaker 5 (16:43):
We were debating whether or not the FSR staff, way
less than the total Lobroncos players could out eat them
in one week with uncrustables.

Speaker 2 (16:53):
Danny. This is why I bring it up, because after
I had a couple of crustables for the first time,
maybe in five years, last night. I'm not my family
was ever an uncrustable family. I've had them, but after
having up because they.

Speaker 1 (17:04):
Didn't exist until I don't know, fifteen twenty years ago,
maybe tops.

Speaker 2 (17:09):
And I looked on their website. Think they got honey
and peanut butter ones. I got raspberry once I got
in the Tello ones. Now, so I looked up uncrustables,
and after eating two of them, I'm pretty certain if
I was not stopped, I could have easily threw down
ten of them.

Speaker 1 (17:27):
Uncrustables were first developed in nineteen ninety five Smuckers and Crustables.
They're basically pbj's guys if you don't know, if you're
the one guy that doesn't know, without the cross, their
shaped like little circles. Little kids love them. They must
have all sorts of preservatives because they last a long time. Well,
but nineteen ninety five they were created, So of course
he didn't have it.

Speaker 5 (17:47):
We were in high school, but our little brothers and
sisters we remember them having.

Speaker 1 (17:50):
It, right, Yeah, of course. And if they had those
lying around you definitely, you know, Jack a few for
your for your day, but you had three last night
one sitting.

Speaker 2 (18:01):
I was about to have three and I realized I
could have had ten. And I found that meme again.
And it's not only the Broncos who put down seven
hundred uncrustables a week. You know, other teams are on
this list energy The Seahawks have three hundred and twenty.
The Jacksonville Jags average about three twenty, the Miami Dolphins
over three hundred. There's a lot of NFL teams that
are just going through uncrustables. Because the peanut butters got protein,

(18:23):
it's a good snack. There were only a couple hundred calories.
NFL players are twenty year old kids. They're children that
are housing uncrustables. Yeah.

Speaker 1 (18:31):
Actually, I have a little bit of a correction. Not
sure what happened there won't happen again. They were developed
in ninety five, which is what I said, but Smuckers
didn't buy them. Until nineteen ninety eight, so you probably
didn't really see them. They were developed in North Dakota
in ninety five, but you probably didn't see them until
the late nineteen hundred and nineteen ninety eight, early two thousands.

Speaker 2 (18:54):
Cod These guys totally grew up with them. That was
my freshman year of college. So you're right. I'm a
little out of window much like you. Yea, But our
younger siblings love them. So I just there's no real,
no real question other than uncrustables. When you hear those
Denver Bronco numbers, it's not a joke because I think

(19:14):
any guy listening now, you and your officemates, you and
the guys on the work on the at the mill,
you and the guys at the factory, on the construction site,
at the doctor's office, and the school, wherever the hell
you work. I could promise you your staff could put
down hundreds of uncrustables.

Speaker 1 (19:29):
Yeah, I mean, you got to figure their NFL monsters, right,
big giant linemen. They're probably they look like little bites
to these guys first of all, and they're burning calories
like crazy, so it doesn't matter how many they eat.
So you have to factor. If it was your warehouse,
your factory, your company, your office, if there was no

(19:49):
consequences or ramifications of stuffing your fat face, how many
could you pound? Probably more than you think, Probably probably
in the hundreds. I bet two, not three? Yeah, not four?
No five, nope, not six, yeah not siven lebron has
seven at a sitting.

Speaker 2 (20:08):
So that's that's all I gotta say. All I gotta
say about on crustables is that stat that we read
a couple weeks ago.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
EJ Coeed eats twenty at a time. Another one, yeah,
the one. Seriously, So give me the rest of those stats.
Though I know you said you had other stats because
the news was seven hundred in one week from the
Denver Broncos. But then all of a sudden, other teams
started talking about, well, yeah, well we eat them too.

(20:34):
It seems like everybody eats them because they're they're easy
to get from craft services or I don't know how
that works, but it seems like everybody has those on
standby because they're easy to serve.

Speaker 2 (20:44):
The Broncos have doubled every other team, but there's a
hell of lot of NFL teams that are putting down
a couple hundred at least a week between their players,
which means, you know, you got fifty plus guys maybe
practice squad dudes. Each guy is having a couple a week. Cardinals, Steelers,
There's Giants, Falcons, there's teams. When they're doing their craft
service inventory. Uncrustables are all the rage among twenty something

(21:07):
year old grown men that are beasts.

Speaker 5 (21:09):
What about Gogert, gun, crustles and Gogert is that those
just go together.

Speaker 1 (21:13):
They're very mobile. The Giants are the league leaders of gushers. Sam,
I don't know if you saw.

Speaker 2 (21:16):
Yeah gusher. Yeah, they go fruit by the foot.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 2 (21:19):
I hear that the Titans have more fruit by the
foot than anyone.

Speaker 1 (21:21):
The four hundred packs of gushers a day, which is crazy.

Speaker 2 (21:26):
So hey, happy eating, enjoy no real lesson other than
I was right, you were right, We're all right. That
number seems fair because I bet you you could do
it at your office. The end.

Speaker 1 (21:39):
Thank you, So Rich Davis is the New York Adventures.
I feel like I'm exhausted now after hearing all his
travels and tickets and sandwiches.

Speaker 2 (21:47):

this is an add by Better Help. What comes to
mind when you hear the word gratitude. Maybe you think

(22:29):
about your friends and family, how happy you are to
have them. Maybe it's a tough moment in life right now,
it feels a little hard to be grateful.

Speaker 2 (22:35):
There is, however, one thing in life we don't often
show enough gratitude for, and that's ourselves. We all made
it through a lot, and even when it feels like
we don't have much to show for it, we still
have ourselves. So here's a reminder to send some thanks
to the people in your life, including you. A great
way to give yourself some thanks is to invest in
your own well being. So if you're interested in starting therapy,

Speaker 1 (24:42):
Yeah, don't know they're using rapid radios. So Dannyg's on
the phones at eighty seven to seven ninety nine on Fox.
Dan Byer's got your updates and a few spots getting
ready for midweek major We do it every midweek getting ready.

Speaker 2 (24:56):
What is he doing squad thrusts.

Speaker 1 (24:57):
No, he's doing a purpose watching on now right here
in the studio, doing jumping jump and fingerburpies with all
this typing. So he's getting ready for MIDWEK major the
biggest stories of sports and pop culture. We do it
every Wednesday, every midweek. But before we talk social media
and Glabor Torres, formerly of the New York Yankees, Today's

(25:20):
today's world of social media antics, Let's talk about Bronnie James.
Let's talk about what's going on here. I definitely want
to hear from you too, Danny G because you're the
resident Lakers fan. But we already heard he's going through
the G League and that he's only traveling here and there.

Speaker 2 (25:41):
Well, no, here's here's the let me give you the
lowdown again. Bronnie James won't play in G League road
games at all, and his Lakers experience is already getting weird.
According to SB Nation, Bronnie's G League assignment is coming
with what they're saying is un deserve star treatment. He's

(26:03):
getting like Roger Clemons don't have to travel with the
team when he's forty treatment.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
Which rubs my butt. The wrong way. And I'm not
even on the team right, So when I hear things
like that, I'm like, well, why would he even accept
that sort of treatment if he wants to be accepted
as as your favorite eighties movie, just one of the guys.

Speaker 2 (26:22):
Well, you know what, let's hear Brian Winhurst talk about this.
He had thoughts.

Speaker 6 (26:25):
Take a listen, I'm want to apply the brakes on
my everything's fine on the Browny front with this thing
that's now happening, which is that, from my understanding, he's
only going to play in the South Bay Lakers home games,
that he's only going to kind of be a part
time G League player and he's not. He's not getting

(26:46):
on United airlines and going to fly and go see
these these other teams, the others. He's playing this road
games now because honestly, like I know, he was getting
so much bescial treatment and nepotism. That's fine, Honestly, I
don't I don't care. Like I said, it's normal now,
I think it's actually detrimental to him. I don't like that.

(27:06):
I don't know whose idea it was. Obviously the Lakers
are oh fine with it, They're doing it. I've now,
on this particular instance, I think that's gone too far,
and I don't think that benefits Bronni. I don't think
it benefits the South day Lakers, and I don't think
it benefits lebron at that point.

Speaker 1 (27:24):
Could there be anybody under the moon that doesn't agree
with that? You know, you already have this moniker of
Nepo baby, but then you lean into it with special treatment.
I find it odd that Bronny would, even, like I said,
accept that sort of thing to not want to travel
commercial or take flights with his teammates. I understand that
he could do something different, but to actually have these

(27:47):
demands is odd to me. And I think it's just
gonna rub the league the wrong way, and he's gonna
be a t even more of a target as a result,
making it harder for him to develop, because everybody's gonna
want to beat this guy if they haven't already.

Speaker 2 (28:00):
I get it. Everyone has their own blueprint to success.
Some people grind in the minor leagues for ten years
before they get their shot. Some people get called up
and they're eighteen and boom, now you have it. Some
guys are first rounders. Some guys are on practice squads
for years and then they finally find their way to
the league for you know, four or five years and

(28:20):
hope to get their pension. Right, everyone's got a different path.
But when you're not flying commercial, when you're not hanging
with the team, when there's a layer of oh, it's
Lebron's kid, he's too good, he's not We think he's
gonna sit in row twenty seven F on this commercial
Continental Airlines the continentally United Airlines flight.

Speaker 1 (28:41):
Dude, I think he just went back in time. You
know what, I'll give you take it to and you
see someone getting special treatment, it's gonna bother somebody right again,
everybody has their own path, like you said, so we
get that, but take it back to the weakest, meaningless

(29:03):
levels of your life. If you ever played sports as
a kid, did you ever play sports on a team? Soccer, football,
whatever it was? And then there was one kid that
only showed up to the games, and it was because
he was in some travel league and he was really
good and he didn't practice with the rest of the team.
I remember that when I was a kid, and when
I was a little kid, I'm like ef, this kid

(29:24):
he thinks he's better than me. He's never a practice.
He doesn't come to practice. He only comes to these
games once in a while because he's so good. He
wasn't that good to be getting that treatment. And that
was from a little kid's perspective. Do you imagine how
these dudes who want that opportunity feel when this dude
doesn't want to travel with them. I'm not saying that

(29:45):
he's not special. I'm not saying because he is Lebron's kid.
That's the truth, and they're not. But he has to
be conscious of the fact that he's rubbing people the
wrong way.

Speaker 2 (29:54):
You made a great point, Coo.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
Which one I'm trying to make it relatable. But I
actually did have that one kid, and I remember going
to the coach and my parents like, how come he
doesn't have to practice? No, listen, he's a special boy.
I'm like, what, I'm not get out of here with
this guy.

Speaker 2 (30:10):
I mean, are you a special He's a special boy like.

Speaker 1 (30:13):
You are, Steven, just in a different way. What I
hate this team.

Speaker 2 (30:18):
Every adult everyone, listen, Everyone's got their own path. But
what you described, I love your example, because even for
adults to play rec league sports. I know you hate
my softball analogeez. But there are guys. But there are
guys that are good athletes that they'll show up once
in a while and they're like, oh, he's bat and
third playing shortstop, and it's like, hey, we're all bunch

(30:41):
of grown men this guy. So this guy shows up
when he wants.

Speaker 1 (30:43):
And everyone's kissing his ass, don't.

Speaker 2 (30:45):
It's almost a little eye rolly.

Speaker 1 (30:47):
And I think Bronni's way too young if I were him,
and I'm not, but if I was, I would have
to wear with all to say, look, I get it,
lebron is the goat. He's my dad, but I don't
want that special treatment because it just puts a bigger
target on my back. He needs to be a man
and step up and say, look, he's already getting some breaks,
but this is this is a break too far.

Speaker 3 (31:09):
It would be better off.

Speaker 5 (31:10):
He'd be better off on a different team's G league squad, honestly,
so he could develop away from his dad. We all
knew this was orchestrated from the beginning. It was a
cool moment when he took the court with his dad
and all that, but again, the Lakers spent seven point
nine million dollars on his contract. Let that sink in
for a second four years, almost eight million dollars guarantee,

(31:33):
and how about this bully guarantee.

Speaker 1 (31:34):
He sort of is a traveling circus because when he played,
they were selling out.

Speaker 5 (31:39):
So well that that's the only thing that helps his
teammates there on the on the home floor for the
G League, he traveled with them. But as much as
his behavior is going to alienate teammates, I think the
only upside for them is you have more eyes on
you and your performance.

Speaker 2 (31:58):
That people are in the performance world rock star athlete,
even in our world radio host, TV host, podcast or
whatever it is. The goal is you never want to
seem elitist. You know, there's no better compliment than oh,
he's like one of the guys. And Bronnie is not
like one of the guys. If he's not flying commercial.

(32:19):
It's almost like imagine if Comino, Imagine if you said
do all.

Speaker 1 (32:23):
I mean he doesn't show up to the company Christmas
party because he's too cool.

Speaker 2 (32:26):
Yeah, imagine if you went to a theme park with
your kid and their friends and it's like, oh, one
of the friends, Oh, they don't wait in line, so
their dad came and there they got the par copper.
You'd be like, but all the kids are they're they're
hanging like right, Like listen, what was the big criticism
of what was the big criticism of Russ when he
was making his way in Denver? Remember the hole he

(32:49):
had his office. We've talked about this, like you're not
doing a good job of being one of the guys.
And right now the Lakers sit at six and four,
right in the middle of the pack. Now, if the
Lakers were you know, ten in one and tearing it up,
then man lebron Soa deserves it because it's like, yo,
take care of my son, look what I'm doing. But
when you're like middle of the pack, it's like, like

(33:10):
I said, it's like when the Hawk girls looks fade.
You put up with a little less. The Lakers are good,
they're not take care of my son good.

Speaker 1 (33:18):
Then when are exceptions? Okay, I'll rocket Roger Clemens and
things like that.

Speaker 2 (33:23):
I don't know when you're when you have the most
say youngs out of anyone, and people are just lucky.

Speaker 1 (33:27):
To have you. No, I agree with you, but I'm
saying there are exceptions to the rule. Is he the exception?
So think about that Fox Sports Radio Nation and hit
us up eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox or
again at Covin o Rich at Fox Sports Radio. And
now it's time for the guy who wears the sweetest
polos and all the land and a sweet hat today.

Speaker 7 (33:49):
Oh, thank you very much for Dan Meyer. Thank thanks, guys,
appreciate it. What's old is new again and what's old
as young as young as old. Anyway, the cults are
going back to the young guy. Anthony richards sa back
starting quarterback for Indianapolis is Joe Flacco heads to the bench.
Flacco had started the previous two games, but it was
zero to two through four interceptions, So Anthony Richardson gets
to start against the Jets on.

Speaker 2 (34:10):
Something B B dB. Don't you feel as though Anthony
Richardson got grounded for two weeks or saying something dumb?
They like, like aw to play for two weeks? All right?

Speaker 3 (34:19):
Oh man, Yeah, it's a it's a crazy situation.

Speaker 7 (34:22):
But I can actually see the Colts thinking like, let's
see what we got in Flacco is continuing to throw interceptions.

Speaker 3 (34:27):
We're not that great of a team. Let's let the
youngster do it.

Speaker 7 (34:29):
But I know some people are really mad about it,
but I'm actually fine with what Indy's doing.

Speaker 3 (34:34):
They're actually in the.

Speaker 7 (34:34):
Playoff pixure, just a game back of the Broncos, but
I don't think we consider them a playoff team. A
couple of other things. Jaguars Trevor Lawrence. He's gonna miss
a second straight game because of his shoulder injury. Mac
Jones starts against the Lions this Sunday. Eagles will have
Jordanilata back at tackle for them when they face the
Commanders coming up tomorrow night. Commanders getting running back Brian
Robinson back on the field, but no cornerback Marshawn Lattimore

(34:55):
still will not make his Commander's debut because of his
hamstring strain. She's running back as a checko. Not likely
to face the Bills on Sunday despite being designated to
return from IR And there were rumors that you guys
can be seeing the Desmond Ritters show against the Miami Dolphins.

Speaker 3 (35:09):
Not gonna happen.

Speaker 7 (35:10):
Gardner Minsch is going to start for the Raiders against
Miami coming up in week eleven. Spurs head coach Greg
Popovich suffered a mild stroke on November two. The seventy
five year old Papovitch expected to make a full recovery,
but a timetable for his return to the bench is
not known at this time.

Speaker 3 (35:23):
Sixers without Joel Embiiden and Paul George.

Speaker 7 (35:25):
Tonight, they're already without tyrees Maxi's they face the Cavaliers.
Cavaliers come in twelve and zero guys. Back to you.

Speaker 1 (35:30):
Thank you, dB. I'm thinking about this Brownie story too,
and I'm trying to be fair about it. Seems like
everybody's reacting to it, but I want to hear your reaction.
Not everybody's the same. He brings different value and sometimes
that's just the name of the game. So your thoughts
on him only playing G League home games and not

(35:53):
traveling commercial with the rest of the team for any
away games. We'll get to your phone calls and feedback
next again, We're Covino and on Fox Sports Radio.

Veno and Rich what you know about Carne Fox Sports Radio?

(37:06):
Hey Rich, good for you living life in New York.
You deserve it.

Speaker 2 (37:11):
Good for you.

Speaker 1 (37:12):
Take yourself a round of sausage. You deserve it.

Speaker 2 (37:15):
It's my favorite. A fortune out take treat yourself.

Speaker 1 (37:20):
Treat yourself a round of sausage. Does anyone know the reference?
I just found out today, but apparently it's viral and everywhere.
Treat yourself a round of sausage.

Speaker 2 (37:31):
Well, the puzzle on well Fortune was clearly the guy
was like three letters away. It was give yourself a
round of applause, and he's like, I look to solve
treat yourself around sausage.

Speaker 1 (37:43):
A round of sausage. Here you go. I give you
a round A plus for a stupid answer. All right,
that's a viral clip today.

Speaker 3 (37:54):
Answer better?

Speaker 1 (37:55):
Oh it was. It was a great answer if you're
a fatso thinking about sausage anyway. Cavino and Rich Fox
Sports Radio, Danny G's on the phones at eighty seven
seven ninety nine, Oh Fox Iowa. Sam is here playing
some what is that filter? Crystal Method and Spot getting
ready for midweek Major? Think about Bronnie.

Speaker 2 (38:14):
Rich, Yes, I'm thinking about it right now.

Speaker 1 (38:16):
Are you thinking about Bronnie? Your sausage? You thinking about?

Speaker 6 (38:21):
That's?

Speaker 1 (38:21):
Thinking about Bronnie.

Speaker 2 (38:23):
I'm thinking about something that early we joked about Spot
getting ready for midweek Major, and we joked about him
I doing squad thrusts.

Speaker 1 (38:30):
I wasn't joking.

Speaker 2 (38:32):
I saw a stat that I want to throw by you.
It has it has to do with testing your fitness,
and I'll get to it right after we get our
Bronnie calls. Just remind me it's it's it's I want
to see where you think you're at fitness. Well, I
don't want to be unfair to the kid because he
is Lebron's son and maybe he has earned in some
weird ways some different sort of treatment, but we have
to keep in mind this it's a team game.

Speaker 1 (38:53):
That's what is also going to be.

Speaker 2 (38:54):
He's also going to be treated differently than other G
leaguers in public, right, stuff like that, right, and he
brings more.

Speaker 1 (39:01):
There is a different caliber of attention that he warrants
and he gets because of who he is.

Speaker 5 (39:08):
And he had a crazy good comeback story almost dying
on the court exactly.

Speaker 1 (39:12):
So like I'm not trying to say see anything away
from him or be unfair, but it is the story today.
So I will say almost that that it is a
team game, and when you're playing with the team, you
have to be respectful of the other teammates. If he
was a fighter rich or you know, he was playing
a solo game like that tennis or something.

Speaker 5 (39:32):
Yeah, then whatever, But this is a team game, spotty.
If your dad was Larry Bird, you'd get preferential treatment.

Speaker 1 (39:38):
That is true, your dad is Larry Bird. Never knew that,
did you, Papa? Yes? Dad? All right, let's go to
the phones. Who do we got, Danny g Let's start
with Bill in South Dakota. Hey, Bill, Brownie, James not
traveling with the team. What do you think?

Speaker 2 (39:50):
Well?

Speaker 1 (39:50):
I think that maybe the Lakers don't really want to
see him much on the road.

Speaker 5 (39:55):
Or they've already made their decision on him.

Speaker 2 (39:57):
I just think he's too much of a side show
and again, traveling commercial. I know that sounds ridiculous because
none of most of us have only flown that way,
including myself. But Bronnie James is not sitting, like I
said in Row thirty one, b middle seat like it
just that's not the life he lives. And he's too
popular to sit with an unknown G League player, And

(40:18):
so you got to understand that part of it. But
you're you're creating distance between the other teammates when you
get that treatment.

Speaker 1 (40:25):
Yeah, when it's a game of chemistry, I feel like
that interferes if you're he's not a fighter or something.
All right, who else do we got?

Speaker 3 (40:33):
Steve in Ohio?

Speaker 1 (40:34):
Hey, Steve, make it snappy. What's up, hey man?

Speaker 5 (40:37):
Maybe Bronnie it's not that he's too good for the
rest of the team.

Speaker 2 (40:40):
Maybe I have something to do with security, Like when
he's on airplane, they need special guards and bodyguards and
things like that for him to walk through the airport.

Speaker 1 (40:49):
Hey, that's super fair. But then why doesn't somebody like
just come out and say that because we're not the
only ones SPC.

Speaker 5 (40:55):
I think the Lakers could afford to spend on that
if they needed to. They're given the kid eight million bucks.

Speaker 1 (41:00):
That's true. Yeah, guys.

Speaker 2 (41:01):
It's like one of my pet peeves when people say
dumb things like, you know, Taylor Swift her private jet
emissions and this, and I'm like, yeah, we get that,
But you think Taylor Swift should fly like Jet Blue
flight whatever you're on.

Speaker 1 (41:15):
I know, no, absolutely not.

Speaker 2 (41:17):
That would be chaos. It would be hectic. So there
are exceptions, But is it a distraction? Is lebron good
enough and is this Lakers team good enough to roll
out the red carper for Bronni? Again, like I said,
if this was a nine to oh Patriots team and
you were doing a favor for mahomes Kid or something.
I don't know, you know what I'm saying, Like, it's
a different story.

Speaker 1 (41:35):
And look, we all want to make our paths easier
for our kids. In reality, that's all Lebron is doing
for his It's just on a bigger platform, bigger scale.
So you know, should he be ridiculed for that? Your
phone calls, your feedback, eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.
We'll get to it all next right here on Fox
