But there's ways to make money. Oh so you're saying

enjoyed the grassy knoll of the holidays. The space between
(01:52):
that Dave Matthews sings about the space between the space
between Christmas and New Year's.
Speaker 3 (01:57):
We this is the year that sentiment jumped the shark.
It used to be like a clever thing, like you know,
the week between Christmas in the years, and now every
Tom Dick and Harry and every Rindo Hussey on Instagram
and TikTok has a little selfie video like have you
ever noticed the week between I know we all noticed it.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Now it's not fun to talk about anymore.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Yeah, but people do forget what day it is. That
is true, and we are full of cheese and carbs.
So hey, back at the gym today, back to the
old grindstone. Happy new Year. A lot of people still
lounging in lamping' but we're here and again, hope you
enjoyed time with friends and family. And of course uh
no s faratu, I saw that in theaters.

Uh? Yeah, yeah, I think so.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
So enjoy your squid game two's, your college foosball, your
no sparantus, and of course the show eight seven seven
ninety nine out fox Less Coach. You know, it's interesting
because sometimes you wonder how that random old school pal
of yours or a family member could be so out
of the loop.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
I was away with my wife and kids for a
couple of days.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Yeah, and honestly, other than checking in on my niners.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
And Lions on Monday night just to see what's doing.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
I really didn't check much, and it's very easy to
miss a lot in the day or so, So I mean.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Social media helps keep you posted if you have your
phone in your hands.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
No, but I'm saying, if you are in the mindset
of yeah, I'm really just gonna be in the moment,
I'm not gonna be scrolling for a day or so,
you could see how that friend or family member gets
out of the loop. Would you miss a lot of
things like given serious things like I walked in here
and someone's like, man, New Orleans, I'm like, wow, what happened?
Oh yeah, and just the Trump Tower story that has
(03:49):
gone viral all time seeing that or do you miss that?
Speaker 1 (03:52):
I don't even know what you're talking about. Come on,
I went to the gym. Is this guy serious? I
went to the gym.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
I watched Texas Arizona State, which, by the way, Arizona
State touchdown in overtime.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
You know, you know that, so Arizona State up thirty
one twenty four as we speak, you know that.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Bert Auburn's like, no.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
No, now, they got to respond, well, our job is
to keep people posted what's going on, and of course
all the nonsense we're the worldwide leaders of nonsense. Did
you miss out on Aaron Rodgers talking a lot of
smack too? I know danyg doesn't want to start with him.
I know you've had it already with Aaron Rodgers. You've
been had it with Aaron Rodgers. Can we push that
(04:34):
to the podcast podcast only?
Speaker 3 (04:37):
You know, I do want to say that the coolest
name of twenty twenty four that's clearly emerging now in
the first day of twenty twenty five, scatter Boo Arizona State.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
This kid's playing with some heart today. Huh. He's been
playing with hard all year, but that might be the
coolest name in college boys. Yeah, he's a baller.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Well he same vomiting on the sidelines, but asking for
liquids like you know, he's put it all out there today.
Will keep you posted, you know, rich The gym is
a good place to get caught up on things like that.
That's what I do, honestly, that's where I do my prep.
I get on the treadmill and I just start scrolling
and reading through stories and just watching highlights. And the
games are on right so that's a great place to
(05:20):
catch up. Or here on Fox Sports Radio Cavino and Rich. Now,
I say we kick it off. Since we're talking a
little college foosball right now, we should talk about week eighteen.
We should is it week eighteen or Week eighteen because
Rich is really down about Week eighteen in the NFL,
and his question in our little pre show meeting was
(05:41):
is this something to even go to? Like would you
go to the game or care about? But let it
be known that there's a big third and ten right now.
I know we're not allowed to do play by play,
so we'll keep you in the loop. Third and ten,
and I mean, this is it for Texas right if
they don't convert, if they don't score, a toutdy, Arizona
State moves on, which would be a I would say
(06:02):
a pretty significant upset.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Oh huge. We haven't had a game this close yet
in play and that is not a long old boy
gardage play.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
We're looking about a fourth and nine fourth and I.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Will say, we'll see what happens. We'll keep in the loop.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
But as we see some really amazing college football with
ramifications Week eighteen other than.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
The Viking game, Lions the game of the year, that's.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Like a game with the most wins ever two superstar
teams going head to head Vikings Lions fourteen and two.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
I mean one team that has the one seed a
bye and that runs through their stadium and the other teams.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Most I think ever, you know, Coach of the Year
ramification of seating ramifications.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
For Texas fourth. Oh, and they call the play dead
false start.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
Texas is almost a two touchdown favorite coming into this game.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
He is fourth and thirteen though false start.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
Oh my goodness, Arizona State was picked by the media
and to finish last in the Big twelve.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
So let's just put this so.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
The fact that they you know, the fact that they
won their conference and now they're doing this is just
it's really a great, a great ride for that fan base,
that student section.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
They must love that.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
You know what I noticed being at the gym today again,
trying to get back into the mix for the new year,
trying to keep those resolutions alive out here in Los Angeles.
For live in l A not a big football city.
It just is hold on, hold out thought, fourth and thirteen.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
This is uh for all the Chick fil a Nuggies.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Let's see what we got here? Uh? Play is it?
Oh my god?
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Touchdown and let him slip through the bin.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Tuddy golden for the Longhorns.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
I hope they don't miss the extra point like they
missed the field goal.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
By the way, that looks that looked way too for
Newers hit him in stride like like the secondary. You
know it's taking a old New Year's nap, And that
looked that kicker. This kicker right now is this is
go time for this?
Speaker 3 (08:14):
Honestly, right now, this kicker has got poopy pants.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
It's business time. No, this is a chip shot extra.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Point, all tied up.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
But what I did notice, Rich, is this hoping he
missed that. That way we wouldn't have a distraction for
the first twenty minutes. You think I can't get a
sense out this guy can't focus.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
So the Rose Bowl is just waiting to start it
and we have to wait till this game wraps up.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Yeah, but I don't blame you, dude, because what I
was gonna say is, for as much as we criticize
LA for, I mean, you can go to the gym
or the bar in LA and they don't have the
football game.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
A lot of times he had the college game on.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
And I saw a lot of people glued to this
at the gym, which is honestly refreshing that you know
they care about something that there's nothing more infuriating when
you're at a bar or gym and you have to be.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Like, excuse me because someone don't know put.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
The game on, right, But you know, especially in the NFL,
you're like, hey, does anyone care? Again here in Los Angeles.
But I did see a lot of people clue to
this game at the gym today, and we will keep
you posted. I don't blame rich. This is a nail
bier for sure, but you know what, it's a great
comparison in comparison to Week eighteen. This has all the
excitement right now.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Well Week eighteen you got the big one out of
the way Lions Vikings, oh my.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Through lots of ramifications there. Game of the year gonna
be fun to watch for sure.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Now just because the one seed has one or five,
I mean it's one or five And the difference of
that is you get to chill at home. Everything goes
through you. You have a bye versus all of a sudden
you're a road dog wildcard.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Remember imagine having that record though in your fifth seed.
It's happened a couple times in the past. Not that
good of a record. That good, Yeah, not that good
of a record.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
But there have been twelve win teams that are like
man wh card, there was some twelve and four.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
So you can't say Week eighteen doesn't matter the game though,
beside aside from that, so we have to play hypotheticals.
Aside from that game. This is a really week week
where we're getting announcements of you know, Mahomes isn't playing,
Barkley's not playing, people aren't playing. These games are kind
of lame, so Rich said in our apprecial meeting, like
do you even care?
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Like is there reason to care? Well, we're gonna give
you reasons to care.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
And by the way, did Texas just score the easiest
touchdown of all time twenty five yard Tuddy right out
the gate to Gunner Helm.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Yeah, that was live. Oh my goodness, that was just
gig because the swap possessions I didn't want to pull
on John Sterling thought maybe it was a replay. Thought, whoa,
who hi it is far Oh that's a replay.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
It's a replay. I can't believe that just happened, just
like that. Wow.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Pressures on Arizona State. But what you're saying to Texas
up thirty seven thirty one? Oh they're going for two?
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Well you have to god, yeah, you missed it. Yeah,
I said, yeah, Sam, I can't believe that just happened.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
That just happened.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Oh and the two points and the two point conversion.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
I forgot you when you you like you swap possessions?
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Yeah, the second thirty nine thirty one Texas. Now, so
back to week eighteen NFL. Oh my goodness, clearly it's
not gonna have this type of excitement. Rich, Wait, except
for that game.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Hold on, are you trying to tell me Browns at
Ravens Browns seventeen a half point underdogs ain't gonna get
You'll take more.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Reasons to characters, gambling reasons to characters, incentive reasons to care.
And the question was, the simple question was is this
a good game maybe to take your family to? And
Rich was saying, but no stars are playing. I'm like,
who cares you think these nose picker kids is a
great game to take your family to. I think stars
maybe get a better seat than you would have gotten.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Go to stub Hub. Go, kids don't care, They're going
for the experience.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
All they're gonna remember is that mom and Dad took
them to the game.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
I think this is absolutely a game you go to talking about.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
I mean, I remember going to a Mets game as
a kid, and you know you would get mad. Imagine
if you went to a Yankees game and Derek Jeter
wasn't starting. You go to a Lakers game if a
Lebron's not playing, you're mad. You know ahead of time, Hey,
killing the NFL games. You want to go see the Chiefs? Yeah, Dad, Yeah,
But guess what, No Mahomes, no Kelsey, no anybody.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
I don't think, well you don't. You don't present it
that way. You present it with we're going to a
game and hey we got good seats.
Speaker 5 (12:30):
Yeah, we're going to a game and you're gonna watch
Carson Wentz whether you like it or not enjoy.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Yeah, and you know there's still reason, like we said,
incentive reasons to watch and to care.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
But I think this could be fun.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
I don't think how spoiled is your kid if that's
what they care about. When they're eating popcorn, they're having
the fixins, they have a hot dog, you buy them
a jersey. They got better seats and they probably would
have would have got otherwise. I think this is a
perfect time to take your family to a game.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Two hundred and forty total yards for scat of right now,
they just got a thirteen yard gain on first and
say scatterboos.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
Of course I did I call him scatman, do yeah, scatman.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Dome threw it away on first and ten from around
the twelve redline. Rich indirectly pretty much put an exclamation
point on this conversation without even trying.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
He doesn't care about Week eighteen. No matter how hard
I try to talk about it, he keeps going back
to this game.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
So clearly you know he doesn't care. Let me tell
you why I don't care.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
I get no, I get why some teams are resting
certain players. I don't want to get in the tired
conversation because everyone else did already on this network and
other networks, right say Kwon Bark.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
We understand, but it is you know, I'm not a
fan of it, but we understand.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Mahomes is sitting.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
I get it, but I'm saying that some of the ooh,
that could be an interesting scenario, those scenarios are even
lesser because you look at like at Joe Burrow, everyone's
saying the same thing. Wouldn't it be cool if the
Bengals snuck in? Because he has so much, so much excitement.
Now the defense are cincinnat you know, nothing to write
(14:02):
home about.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
I mean, there's a lot of people that bring Joe
Burrow up when it comes to MVP covers.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
Yeah, but guess what that conversation ends when all of
a sudden, the Chiefs are not going to try to
beat Denver.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
So Denver wins. Denver's in.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
So it's like, you know, if the Chiefs were playing,
you'd be like, oh, the schedule plays out the way
it's supposed to.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
The Broncos have.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
To play the Chiefs, and typically the Chiefs would win,
and then all of a sudden, Burrow's got a chance.
Miami's sitting there going like, oh man, we don't got
a chance either now. So I think all those up
interception Texas game over.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
They move on. The game is over. It's over. It's over.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
The kicker has the biggest sy relief. You know who's
going to sleep the easiest today, That dude with the mullet.
Mullet dude Bert Auburn, the kicker for Texas. He would
have been the most hated guy.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
That dude look like Clancy Brown and Bad Boys.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
He would have been the most hated guy in Austin,
Texas had that not gone this way.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
He missed a couple of field goals against Georgia in
the SEC title game.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
My goodness.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
So he's been on kind of a rough couple of games, but.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Are straighten up before the next round? Huh? And really quick?
Speaker 5 (15:06):
Rich the numbers right now, the Bengals have a four
percent chance of making the playoffs. If they win and
the Jets beat the Dolphins, their chances go up by
seventeen to seventeen percent, And if the Bengals win and
the Chiefs beat the Broncos, their chances go up to
forty three percent.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
I mean the reality is if Broncos win, they're in
and Kansas City's not really playing anyone. So do we
all agree that that that game could just sort of
solidify any little excitement for Week eighteen.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Other than the big game you spoke of.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
Yeah, I'm just thinking from a kid's perspective or family perspective, right,
I'm thinking back growing up in New Jersey. I always
wanted to go to NFL games, and you know, back
then the Giants were good and Jets whatever. But but yeah,
even they were pretty decent and they had some big
stars at the time. But I remember my dad would
(15:58):
be able to get stupid New Jersey Nerals tickets and
you got to go to the Metal Lands, you got
to go to Giants Stadium to watch them. And that
was exciting to me as a kid because they were
cheap and easy to get if you're able to get
Week eighteen tickets because there's not a lot of competition
in Week eighteen. I think that's something you look forward
to and look for as a family on a budget
(16:21):
heading into the new year, taking your family to a game.
I think this is the one you go to. I'm
just trying to make definitely spelled w e ak. Yeah,
I get it, but I'm seeing it from a fan
perspective of you're just going to the game for the
fun of it, because to be honest, dude, if you're
a real NFL fan, you get a better seat at
home anyway.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
This is these are the games you.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Go to and just have fun with your kids and
the heirs the other the other like, ooh, what could
happen is that NFC South Bucks and Falcons still fighting,
but they both play bottom feeders.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
So the Bucks hold their own destiny. They just have
to beat the Saints at home. Tampa's at home. Baker
Mayfield can't beat the lowly Saints week eighteen. He doesn't
deserve it, So again, I just wish it was more
at state going into Week eight team.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
But you know what, the playoffs are going to be awesome.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
I think this year, and I say that with my
team not even being in it, the playoffs look like they're.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Gonna shape up to be pretty freaking exciting. I have
a question.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
I just feel like Week eighteen, you know, you get
by by maybe doing some prop bets, guys looking for
incentives and stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
It's not something I plan on talking about. But you
mentioned Mayfield. Yeah, gain even more respect. I think we
all did for this guy after the season, right, I
heard your boy Deebo Samuel talking about him, talking about
how he's not the biggest guy, he's not the fastest guy.
I didn't have the best arm, but he plays like
every game's his last. Right, He's a dog, He battles
(17:51):
and he spoke really high on Baker Mayfield, that's fine,
But if you were Brock Perdy, do you want to
hear stuff like that? It's kind of like your girlfriend
talking about another podcast or radio show when you're the host.
You know, Honestly, I'm like, yeah, that's great. No, I
don't really want to hear about it, though I do.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
The best one.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
If you were a rock party, would you want to
hear your teammates hyping up someone else who deserves the praise.
Don't get it wrong, but would you want to hear
that publicly? Because it almost feels like a sneak diss
It almost says what rock party doesn't have, That fight
doesn't have, that dog doesn't play like every game's his last.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
In a world. But he's not saying that directly. You
could take it that way. I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
I have to say it like this in a world,
in a world where so many NBA and NFL players
are in the podcast space, Yeah, aren't they just bounced
to say things that could come across as hell?
Speaker 1 (18:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (18:42):
I just feel like, you know, and he's just being honest.
I'm just I'm dissecting it. It could be taken that
we used to have a rock.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
Party shoes, which I'm guessing like a pair of summer Spurries.
I feel like Brock Party wears a loafer. Purdy definitely
wears some sperries.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Yeah. So if you're Brock Purty, well he's on those
boot commercials, right. Yeah, if you were in some boats,
he's wearing some Hey dudes.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
If you were in some Hayden dudes, like Brock Party,
Rich wears those cheap ones. They're called suck bros. So
if your Brock Pursy got his at Payless suck bros
Perty's and some Ariot boots. Yeah, if you're Brock Purdy,
I wouldn't want to hear it, But yourself in his boots?
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Would you want to hear your one? Are your star
players talk about how Baker Mayfield's the man?
Speaker 1 (19:25):
It's like, you're right, it's sort of like.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
Your wife or girlfriend talking about how some other guys
so successful or ripped.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Or hung or I don't know, yeah, you heard me.
You don't want to.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Hear these things as the kiddos say the kiddos, the youngsters,
as you say the younglings. Danny g he was sort
of glazing Baker Mayfield, and I wouldn't like it.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
If I was Brock Party, I wouldn't, I.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Think the best example of this because there was a
trade and transaction gone wrong. So many of us by
now have seen the O four Red Sox documentary. Yeah,
when Red Sox we're talking about a Rod and how
they would want him over no More.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Oh yeah, that's horrible. That was Kevin Moore.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
And then the trade didn't go down, and then no
More had to look at his teammates who all were.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Like, oh, yeah, we thought we were getting a Rod. Sorry, sorry,
bro No that was terrible.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
So again you mentioned the Buccaneers and I saw that
clip and it just made me think something I thought
about when I was on the treadmill today.
Speaker 5 (20:24):
Yeah, but Mayfield lost some points because that viral post
that's gone around of him sharing cookies and milk with
his own line. They're sharing a glass of milk with
each other. That is it pretty gross?
Speaker 3 (20:36):
Milk milk might be the grossest beverage to share.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
And look, every everyone's got the in the NFL has
gotten to respect Baker Visuals cookie fill in there.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
I saw that.
Speaker 5 (20:48):

great time.
Speaker 1 (22:06):
But kids are kids are a lot. Man. You got
two little kids at the fend Park all day. That's
not a day off.
Speaker 3 (22:12):
Have kids, they said, My goodness, but I went to
old town San Diego, and you would have been so
jealous of the Moley sauce I had.
Speaker 1 (22:19):
I know you're a big Moley Poblano fan.
Speaker 2 (22:21):
Holy Moley, Well you find the players a good Molay
hideosmo ah hitheosmeos right.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
You know we got so much to get to today,
you know what, Richie right, I am jealous.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
A lot of NFL college football going on as we speak,
but let's go to Ilo for an update.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Isaac Loewencron, Happy New Year, fellows.
Speaker 6 (22:38):
We begin at the Rose Bowl, where Ohio State has
a seven to nothing lead over Oregon eight point fifty
left to play in the first quarter. Oregon a fourth
and eight and it's twenty two yard line, about to
punt the ball away. Ohio State scoring on a forty
five yard touchdown pass from Will Howard to Jeremiah Smith
on the opening drive of the game. The winner will
face Texas in the College Football Playoff semi Finals. Because
(23:01):
in the Peach Bowl, the Longhorns prevailed in double overtime
over Arizona State thirty nine thirty one. Texas led twenty
four to eight with six thirty two left in the
fourth Arizona State tied it on two touchdowns and two
to two point conversions. Texas then missed two field goals
for the lead in the final one thirty nine of
the fourth quarter. Arizona State scored a touchdown on the
(23:23):
first possession of overtime to take a thirty one to
twenty four lead, and then Texas faced a fourth down
and thirteen at the Sun Devil twenty eight yard line.
Here was Craig Way on k vt.
Speaker 7 (23:35):
A's the snap, fourth to thirteen yours, looking fires, He's
got golden open.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
He caught it. Touchdowns. Texas two golden strikes again twenty.
Speaker 7 (23:45):
Eight yards on fourth down and thirteen in the long Horns.
Speaker 6 (23:49):
Scored touchdown to save the game. Texas scored a touchdown
and a two point conversion on its second possession of
overtime to go up thirty nine to thirty one, and
then arizon Zona State had a third and eight at
the Texas ten yard line.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Sam Levitt on third down play action, Clevitt looks fires
for the intel.
Speaker 7 (24:07):
Cats intercepted, picked up, intercepted, and Groupacuba. Texas is going
to the final four Holo on horns, winning in double
overtime thirty nine thirty one.
Speaker 6 (24:20):
Despite Arizona State's Cam Skataboo running for one hundred and
forty three yards with two touchdowns, he had eight catches
for ninety nine yards. He also threw a forty two
yard touchdown pass, accounting for two hundred and eighty four
yards of total offense. Finally, Tonight's Sugar Bowl game between
Georgia and Notre Dame was postponed until Thursday at four
pm Eastern time three pm Central time, in the wake
(24:42):
of the attack overnight on Bourbon Street that killed at
least ten people, the attack occurring approximately one mile away
from the Superdome authority, say the Sugar Bowl Committee, in
fact saying with law enforcement assets that would typically be
allocated to an event of this stature currently in game,
active investigations related to the incident. The postponement will allow
(25:04):
for additional security resources to be put in place in
order to maintain typical security standards at the Supernome.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
Guys, back to you, Thank you, Skataboo. That's long Crown,
He's our.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Boo, loving you Skataboos Livematirack dot Com Studio again where
Cavino and Rich Dannyg's on the phones at eight seven,
seven ninety nine one Fox iOS, Sam on the ones
and twos spot getting ready for Midweek Major Next Hour.
The biggest stories in the world of sports and pop
culture are they mid week? Like Week eighteen of the
NFL or Major and Rich you said you missed some
(25:36):
major storylines because you know, we were in the middle
of the holiday season. You forget what they it is.
Did you hear about the new conspiracy? No, it's not
drones or plasmoids. It's the fog. Have you heard about
the fog?
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Is there a bad movie about this? No? But there's
like a chemical fog.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
The people everybody's waking up and they're like something like this,
why is this so foggy out? Yeah, but they're like,
is this in that was the bees? Was this snow happening?
Is this trees nature was killing us. Is this involved
with the drones? Why is there so much fog? And
then apparently there's a weird fog like all over the
(26:18):
country and people are trying to figure it out. It's
called I love a good conspiracy, and we love some
good Aaron Rodgers talk. So when the tanker drops and
the air is warm, it creates not a boister in
the air, which.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
Well, that's about the government and aliens working together. It
must be the answer. You can't wait to hear Aaron
Rodgers take on this. The most complex is always the
right answer.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
But Aaron Rodgers always gets himself involved in some sort
of sound bite or controversy. He hasn't mentioned the fog yet,
but that that is a fun one on social media,
so it has to be true. He has said something though,
that has gone viral. I thought it was a fake,
like an onion story, and you have to ask yourself,
(27:00):
is he serious and I think he is? Or is
he saying this just so that people talk about him.
Take a listen and listen closely to what Aaron Rodgers
has said.
Speaker 8 (27:09):
Gratitude. Honestly, it's been the best two years of my life.
Now that's a perspective adjustment that happened, I think at
some point during the reab process last year. But just
the excitement falling back in love with the game, getting
to know these guys in the here and getting to
know the great men and women to work here. Obviously,
on the field has been short of expectations, no doubt,
but this game is more than just that. This game
is about the relationships by the things that really last
(27:29):
longer than this, lasts longer than your health does, and
lasts longer than your body being able to play. So
I'm really thankful for the men and women I met
here in New Jersey and the experiences I got to
have with my teammates and joined the city, And obviously
wish things would have gotten better on the field, but
put nothing with gratitude for this time in my life.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Man, I just got back from New Jersey and it's great,
but it's not that great. Great pizza, great Taylor Ham sandwiches.
It was great to see my parents, but it's not
that great. The question is you hear the sham Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Does it make you understand him more or just roll
your eyes at him more? Because when you talk about
He said the injury gave him the ability to fall
in love with the game all over when he, you know,
found himself not learning how to play again, but getting
back on the field. Moore said all the right things,
but the best two years of his life.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
That's crazy.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
More and more important than W's might be those relationships
he talks about.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Which is true. Here. I wrote down notes because I
was like, is this a joke? I wrote?
Speaker 2 (28:27):
I understand, I knew. I understand everything he said and
is beautiful. I understand, but I don't necessarily like it
as a sports fan. As a sports fan, and I
get it, you could separate your professional life to your
personal life. But he's Aaron Rodgers, the football player. How
in the world could he say these are the best
two years of his life. That's hard to wrap your
fat head around. I have a hard time believe in that.
(28:49):
I believe that's a great outlook for him to have.
I just don't know if that's possible.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
You know, one of our peals, Gary Vee, the motivational
dude on social media.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
Of course, I know Gary v. Is that rhetorical question, yes,
is actually okay?
Speaker 3 (29:01):
Gary Vaynerchuk, Garry Vannderchuck, Gary vaer Chuck. I mean he
talks about how in life he keeps it real, but
when he's a sports fan, he realizes that when you're
a fan, a fanatic, your mind allows you to think illogically.
You you root and care more than you should about
(29:22):
certain things. That's part of being a fan. So, as
a fan, do you want to hear Aaron Rodgers say
these are the two best years.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Of his life.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
We as fan, we as fans have odd expectations of
athletes and coaches.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
You gotta tell me for us.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Doug gott leaves a coach, he puts a picture, or
he puts a picture on the holidays, and what do
people say?
Speaker 1 (29:39):
Immediately? Yeah, stop with it, get back to the gym.
Yeah no, it's true of family should be working.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
We all wear two different hats, right, personal and professional? Actually,
Cam Newton wears lots of hats, actually lots of things. Yeahs,
all sorts of Mounti hats.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
Did he say baseball was going to take a back
seat to the w NBA. He's a hot air balloon's
talking at his ass.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
We all wear different hats, but I find it impossible
for this guy to have had this injury and to
have played as bad as he's played and the team
has been how about the embarrassing last game?
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Holy, Holy Mother of God.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
There's no way, there's no way you could say is
the best two years of your life?
Speaker 1 (30:20):
No, give me a goodies, Holy Mother of God. You
know what.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
I just watched twilights On the movie. As you know,
we had a twilights on marathon in the past few days.
And when the guy steps out to see the plane
and the damage that the at the beast had done
outside of the plane, and.
Speaker 4 (30:40):
He goes, Holy Toledo.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
So I was a little confused there.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
So Holy Toledo, you're gonna tell me that he had
the best two years of his life. Like I said,
it's beautiful to find the silver lining in all this.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
What does it mean? God?
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Why have I suffered? And you know, he says, I've
made great relationships. I fell in love with it. These
are all wonderful things. As a sports fan, I don't
like it. Man to man, I get it, I understand.
But as a sports fan, as we're doing here on
Fox Sports, we're talking sports beat it, I don't want
to hear that. You think I want to hear Aaron
(31:21):
Judge talk about how great his last year has been.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
Like, really, dude, you dropped the ball.
Speaker 3 (31:26):
You see how someone SYNCD up that if you started
watching game five at a certain point.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
Aaron Judge dropped the ball at midnight. And by the way,
he announced, you know, he's having a baby.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
Hey, personally, I'm happy for him, but professionally, I want
that to fire you up and drive you like.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
Does that do I mean it's tummy. He's gonna start
looking like Soto's Yes, no.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
No, you you almost as a fan want a level
of discontent from the athletes that aren't producing.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
You don't want to hear this the grandest time ever.
You said it?
Speaker 3 (31:54):
Best roll back what you said thirty seconds ago through
this earth Man to man, I get it as a
sports fan.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
Get the hell out of here. That's it.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
You know, those are the two different hats we wear.
Athletes are people too, you know, but think about it,
professional just like us. Yeah, but dude, they're known. We
watch Aaron Rodgers the football player. We don't watch Aaron
Rodgers the man, right, that's who we enigma. Yeah, that's
Aaron Rodgers man.
Speaker 3 (32:20):
But you know what, I agree, because there are times
like I go back. Hey, we're coming up on the
five year anniversary of COVID, right, there's a crappy year.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
We lost a gig. You know this too. I lost
two gigs.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
Some people lost, some people lost family members. Yeah, I
mean it was a lot of bad stuff. But you
know what, personally for me, my wife and I had
a baby that year. We bought a house that year.
Thinks is when people like, how was it? In my mind,
I'm like, you know what, A lot went down. That
was a pretty awesome year, worst year ever. But but what
I'm saying is I get man to man versus what
(32:54):
you want to hear are two different things. You want
Aaron Rogers to be like, Man, you know what, I'm embarrassed.
The worst years of my life. Sorry Jets, sorry everyone,
Sorry fans.
Speaker 2 (33:04):
Then you know what, Rich, Then if you really think
these are the two best years of your life.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
You heard him, there's a girlfriend and he's happy. I
get it.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
Then you know what, but preface it with that he
doesn't live, no, But preface it with that, you know, man,
I didn't meet my expectations. There you go, I feel
like he's yeah, but I feel like you really got
to emphasize that before you tell me how great your
life has been.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Seriously, as a fan.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
If Aaron Rodgers found love, he did, yeah, and he said,
you know what, it really put football in perspective. He's
on his ayahuasca journeys. If he's happy and healthy, lose
That's how people lose their hunger. Though rich, you need
something to fight for. You need that that chip on
your shoulder, that that anger. You need that extra motivation
sometimes to compete, that extra edge.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
These dudes are hungry. In the NFL, he's too content
sitting back with his feet up. That's not who you
want leading your team. So as a sport fan, it
does rub me the wrong way a little bit. You
want to at least have the illusion that whoever's leading
that team is is thinking about all the time, Like
like Dan Campbell said, he thinks.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
About that all the time.
Speaker 2 (34:13):
Some people lose that and he yeah, and that's fun.
I gain happiness, But you don't want that.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
Well your thoughts on that, plus I said, there is
one reason to watch Week eighteen of the NFL. I
have about five different possible prop bets based on incentives
players are going to get. It might be a little fun.
You could have Week eighteen. We'll do that next right here,
Cavino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
You know everybody is all about Marcia, Marcia Marcia. But
today today it is jan first, it's the first of
the most.
Speaker 4 (34:48):
Saw that off a meme.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
I saw that too. I wrote that meme. Bro oh wow, yeah,
I invented it. Well, Steve Cavino, inventor Cove wishing you
a happy New Year. That's Rich Davis.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
No every d meme you there is an inventor that
doesn't get credit. Yeah, I stole the credit.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Just now. There is some one guy that's like that
is mine.
Speaker 4 (35:06):
Out of reckless industry.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
I said it on Fox Sports so it's mine. Anyway.
I hope you had a great weekend. What's today Wednesday?
Speaker 3 (35:13):
Wednesday, the first of January. Welcome to CNR on FSR.
Speaker 2 (35:18):
Yeah, hey, I want to say this, thanks to everybody
who filled in for us.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
We also filled in for Dan Patrick.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
So if you missed any of those shows, we did
a very successful Dan Patrick Patrick catch it on the podcast.
We fill in for Colin on Friday, so make note
of that. Wake Up with Us Friday morning on Fox
Sports Radio on the Herd CNR in for the Herd.
But it's great to be back. Great to see you, Danny,
G and Sam.
Speaker 4 (35:40):
And really quick.
Speaker 5 (35:41):
Ohio State has jumped out to a fourteen to nothing
lead in the Rose.
Speaker 1 (35:44):
Bowl and they have the ball and their past midfield.
Speaker 3 (35:47):
Ooh, your brother in law who's a big Ohio State fan, Yeah,
must be happy right now.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
Oh, he's pumped, He's super pumped.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
I want to give you guys a couple of reasons
we talked about how week eighteen, I'm sorry, Week eighteen,
other than the Lions and Vikings, which you know obviously
got flex to that Sunday night and the season game,
because Kansas City is sitting their stars.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
Stars stars, you're not stars. You're not gonna get.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
A legit Broncos Chiefs game, which means, I mean, maybe
Carson Wentz delivers. I mean he's fighting for something, right,
But the whole point of that game was, ooh, if
the Chiefs beat the Broncos, then Joe Burrow or the
Dolphins have a shot to sneak into the playoffs. But
now it seems like the Kansas City Chiefs are just
(36:39):
getting ready for the playoffs, and by sitting their stars,
they're gonna have a lot of rest because they won't
play this week. They won't play week one in the
wild card, so you're again counting on weeks and weeks
of rest, and we've seen that go either way.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Yeah, health is wealth. I get it. So I get it.
Speaker 3 (36:56):
The Saquon thing, maybe we'll touch on later. Everyone else's I.
Speaker 2 (37:00):
Get it, but I don't again, safety measures again sort
of week, Yeah, kind of week.
Speaker 1 (37:07):
But here's a couple of things you could bet on.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
But you know what if he broke the record sort
of week anyway, you know, no one would have gave
him the credit.
Speaker 3 (37:14):
Do you think that plays into it? Part of me
thinks it does. You're avoiding, you're avoiding a meaningless debate.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
Yeah, he would have had it, done it last week
to get that full pat on the back.
Speaker 1 (37:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
Think of how long until the steroid era. There are
still people that were like.
Speaker 1 (37:29):
Well, Roger marriage did any more games than Babe Ruth.
People were arguing about that sixty years ago. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (37:36):
So I mean, like we hadded another game. People want
more football. Dickerson's relieved. Oh he's happy. Yeah, and he
made no, he didn't want that broken. I don't blame
him and he made no Uh. He wasn't try about
it either.
Speaker 1 (37:46):
Eh.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
I don't blame him. I appreciate the honesty. But a
couple guys, let me let me throw these out there.
Speaker 3 (37:50):
If you're looking for some prop bets, Mike Evans big
incentives if he catches five passes for eighty five or
more yards. So if you look at some prop bets
to make the bucks still put up some points this
week for sure, Mike Evans, you got Tony Pollard needs
fifty three yards Gino Smith, this is a big one.
If he gets ten wins. I believe a million dollar
(38:13):
incentive kicks in, which means Gino is at nine wins
now ten.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
Wins money on the Seahawks, and he.
Speaker 3 (38:20):
Needs one hundred and eighty five plus yards passing for
another big I think half a million dollar incentives much.
So Gino's playing for a lot of money. So I
expect Gino Smith to be balling. Expect Mike Evans to
be balling.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
JK.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
Dobbins has one hundreds of thousands of dollars on the line.
If these are fun reasons to watch, but fifty eight
plus yards for JK. Dobbins, Derrick Henry gets another five
hundred thousand dollars if he gets a touchdown, so money
on that. So again, maybe you parlay all these little
(38:53):
fun things into one.
Speaker 1 (38:54):
Bet.
Speaker 4 (38:55):
Here's the thing with Gino and the Seahawks. Great if
they get to ten wins, awesome, but they've already been
a limnated from playoff contention. So it's cheap. It's a
cheap little bonus incentive.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
Who you're eating for the player of the billion dollar organization.
Speaker 4 (39:07):
Don't I don't care about his incentive. It doesn't it
doesn't mean anything.
Speaker 1 (39:10):
It's it's anything, but I get it for him personally.
Speaker 4 (39:14):
I know it's good.
Speaker 3 (39:15):
It would have been it would have been fun if
that Seahawks Rams game meant if it came down to that.
But it's already tie breaker goes the Rams way, so
it's already settled. But hey, Gino, Tony Pollard, he's got
something to play for it.
Speaker 5 (39:28):
Derrick Henry DeAndre Hopkins needs a bunch of catches DeAndre
Hopkins and he goes buck.
Speaker 3 (39:33):
Wild, like over one hundred and twenty five yards or something.
So there's a lot of them, you know what. I'll
post some of them at Covine on Rich so you
can play along. And we got more seeing our fun
New Year's Day right here, Fox Sports Radio

Speaker 3 (01:57):
We this is the year that sentiment jumped the shark.
It used to be like a clever thing, like you know,
the week between Christmas in the years, and now every
Tom Dick and Harry and every Rindo Hussey on Instagram
and TikTok has a little selfie video like have you
ever noticed the week between I know we all noticed it.
Speaker 1 (02:14):
Now it's not fun to talk about anymore.
Speaker 2 (02:16):
Yeah, but people do forget what day it is. That
is true, and we are full of cheese and carbs.

Are you serious?
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Uh? Yeah, yeah, I think so.
Speaker 3 (02:51):
So enjoy your squid game two's, your college foosball, your
no sparantus, and of course the show eight seven seven
ninety nine out fox Less Coach. You know, it's interesting
because sometimes you wonder how that random old school pal
of yours or a family member could be so out
of the loop.
Speaker 1 (03:07):
I was away with my wife and kids for a
couple of days.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Yeah, and honestly, other than checking in on my niners.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
And Lions on Monday night just to see what's doing.
Speaker 3 (03:18):
I really didn't check much, and it's very easy to
miss a lot in the day or so, So I mean.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Social media helps keep you posted if you have your
phone in your hands.
Speaker 3 (03:27):
No, but I'm saying, if you are in the mindset
of yeah, I'm really just gonna be in the moment,
I'm not gonna be scrolling for a day or so,
you could see how that friend or family member gets
out of the loop. Would you miss a lot of
things like given serious things like I walked in here
and someone's like, man, New Orleans, I'm like, wow, what happened?
Oh yeah, and just the Trump Tower story that has
(03:49):
gone viral all time seeing that or do you miss that?
Speaker 1 (03:52):
I don't even know what you're talking about. Come on,
I went to the gym. Is this guy serious? I
went to the gym.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
I watched Texas Arizona State, which, by the way, Arizona
State touchdown in overtime.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
You know, you know that, so Arizona State up thirty
one twenty four as we speak, you know that.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Bert Auburn's like, no.
Speaker 2 (04:13):
No, now, they got to respond, well, our job is
to keep people posted what's going on, and of course
all the nonsense we're the worldwide leaders of nonsense. Did
you miss out on Aaron Rodgers talking a lot of
smack too? I know danyg doesn't want to start with him.
I know you've had it already with Aaron Rodgers. You've
been had it with Aaron Rodgers. Can we push that
(04:34):
to the podcast podcast only?
Speaker 3 (04:37):
You know, I do want to say that the coolest
name of twenty twenty four that's clearly emerging now in
the first day of twenty twenty five, scatter Boo Arizona State.
Speaker 1 (04:49):
This kid's playing with some heart today. Huh. He's been
playing with hard all year, but that might be the
coolest name in college boys. Yeah, he's a baller.
Speaker 3 (04:57):
Well he same vomiting on the sidelines, but asking for
liquids like you know, he's put it all out there today.
Will keep you posted, you know, rich The gym is
a good place to get caught up on things like that.
That's what I do, honestly, that's where I do my prep.
I get on the treadmill and I just start scrolling
and reading through stories and just watching highlights. And the
games are on right so that's a great place to
(05:20):
catch up. Or here on Fox Sports Radio Cavino and Rich. Now,
I say we kick it off. Since we're talking a
little college foosball right now, we should talk about week eighteen.
We should is it week eighteen or Week eighteen because
Rich is really down about Week eighteen in the NFL,
and his question in our little pre show meeting was
(05:41):
is this something to even go to? Like would you
go to the game or care about? But let it
be known that there's a big third and ten right now.
I know we're not allowed to do play by play,
so we'll keep you in the loop. Third and ten,
and I mean, this is it for Texas right if
they don't convert, if they don't score, a toutdy, Arizona
State moves on, which would be a I would say
(06:02):
a pretty significant upset.
Speaker 4 (06:04):
Oh huge. We haven't had a game this close yet
in play and that is not a long old boy
gardage play.
Speaker 3 (06:12):
We're looking about a fourth and nine fourth and I.
Speaker 1 (06:15):
Will say, we'll see what happens. We'll keep in the loop.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
But as we see some really amazing college football with
ramifications Week eighteen other than.
Speaker 1 (06:25):
The Viking game, Lions the game of the year, that's.
Speaker 2 (06:28):
Like a game with the most wins ever two superstar
teams going head to head Vikings Lions fourteen and two.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
I mean one team that has the one seed a
bye and that runs through their stadium and the other teams.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
Most I think ever, you know, Coach of the Year
ramification of seating ramifications.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
For Texas fourth. Oh, and they call the play dead
false start.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
Texas is almost a two touchdown favorite coming into this game.
Speaker 1 (06:52):
He is fourth and thirteen though false start.
Speaker 4 (06:56):
Oh my goodness, Arizona State was picked by the media
and to finish last in the Big twelve.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
So let's just put this so.
Speaker 3 (07:02):
The fact that they you know, the fact that they
won their conference and now they're doing this is just
it's really a great, a great ride for that fan base,
that student section.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
They must love that.
Speaker 2 (07:12):
You know what I noticed being at the gym today again,
trying to get back into the mix for the new year,
trying to keep those resolutions alive out here in Los Angeles.
For live in l A not a big football city.
It just is hold on, hold out thought, fourth and thirteen.
Speaker 3 (07:30):
This is uh for all the Chick fil a Nuggies.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Let's see what we got here? Uh? Play is it?
Oh my god?
Speaker 2 (07:41):
Touchdown and let him slip through the bin.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Tuddy golden for the Longhorns.
Speaker 4 (07:51):
I hope they don't miss the extra point like they
missed the field goal.
Speaker 2 (07:54):
By the way, that looks that looked way too for
Newers hit him in stride like like the secondary. You
know it's taking a old New Year's nap, And that
looked that kicker. This kicker right now is this is
go time for this?
Speaker 3 (08:14):
Honestly, right now, this kicker has got poopy pants.
Speaker 1 (08:18):
It's business time. No, this is a chip shot extra.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Point, all tied up.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
But what I did notice, Rich, is this hoping he
missed that. That way we wouldn't have a distraction for
the first twenty minutes. You think I can't get a
sense out this guy can't focus.
Speaker 4 (08:35):
So the Rose Bowl is just waiting to start it
and we have to wait till this game wraps up.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
Yeah, but I don't blame you, dude, because what I
was gonna say is, for as much as we criticize
LA for, I mean, you can go to the gym
or the bar in LA and they don't have the
football game.
Speaker 1 (08:47):
A lot of times he had the college game on.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
And I saw a lot of people glued to this
at the gym, which is honestly refreshing that you know
they care about something that there's nothing more infuriating when
you're at a bar or gym and you have to be.
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Like, excuse me because someone don't know put.
Speaker 2 (09:01):
The game on, right, But you know, especially in the NFL,
you're like, hey, does anyone care? Again here in Los Angeles.
But I did see a lot of people clue to
this game at the gym today, and we will keep
you posted. I don't blame rich. This is a nail
bier for sure, but you know what, it's a great
comparison in comparison to Week eighteen. This has all the
excitement right now.
Speaker 3 (09:22):
Well Week eighteen you got the big one out of
the way Lions Vikings, oh my.
Speaker 2 (09:29):
Through lots of ramifications there. Game of the year gonna
be fun to watch for sure.
Speaker 3 (09:36):
Now just because the one seed has one or five,
I mean it's one or five And the difference of
that is you get to chill at home. Everything goes
through you. You have a bye versus all of a sudden
you're a road dog wildcard.
Speaker 2 (09:49):
Remember imagine having that record though in your fifth seed.
It's happened a couple times in the past. Not that
good of a record. That good, Yeah, not that good
of a record.
Speaker 3 (09:57):
But there have been twelve win teams that are like
man wh card, there was some twelve and four.
Speaker 2 (10:02):
So you can't say Week eighteen doesn't matter the game though,
beside aside from that, so we have to play hypotheticals.
Aside from that game. This is a really week week
where we're getting announcements of you know, Mahomes isn't playing,
Barkley's not playing, people aren't playing. These games are kind
of lame, so Rich said in our apprecial meeting, like
do you even care?
Speaker 1 (10:21):
Like is there reason to care? Well, we're gonna give
you reasons to care.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
And by the way, did Texas just score the easiest
touchdown of all time twenty five yard Tuddy right out
the gate to Gunner Helm.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Yeah, that was live. Oh my goodness, that was just
gig because the swap possessions I didn't want to pull
on John Sterling thought maybe it was a replay. Thought, whoa,
who hi it is far Oh that's a replay.
Speaker 1 (10:44):
It's a replay. I can't believe that just happened, just
like that. Wow.
Speaker 3 (10:51):
Pressures on Arizona State. But what you're saying to Texas
up thirty seven thirty one? Oh they're going for two?
Speaker 2 (10:58):
Well you have to god, yeah, you missed it. Yeah,
I said, yeah, Sam, I can't believe that just happened.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
That just happened.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Oh and the two points and the two point conversion.
Speaker 4 (11:10):
I forgot you when you you like you swap possessions?
Speaker 2 (11:14):
Yeah, the second thirty nine thirty one Texas. Now, so
back to week eighteen NFL. Oh my goodness, clearly it's
not gonna have this type of excitement. Rich, Wait, except
for that game.
Speaker 3 (11:24):
Hold on, are you trying to tell me Browns at
Ravens Browns seventeen a half point underdogs ain't gonna get
You'll take more.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
Reasons to characters, gambling reasons to characters, incentive reasons to care.
And the question was, the simple question was is this
a good game maybe to take your family to? And
Rich was saying, but no stars are playing. I'm like,
who cares you think these nose picker kids is a
great game to take your family to. I think stars
maybe get a better seat than you would have gotten.
Speaker 1 (11:53):
Go to stub Hub. Go, kids don't care, They're going
for the experience.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
All they're gonna remember is that mom and Dad took
them to the game.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
I think this is absolutely a game you go to talking about.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
I mean, I remember going to a Mets game as
a kid, and you know you would get mad. Imagine
if you went to a Yankees game and Derek Jeter
wasn't starting. You go to a Lakers game if a
Lebron's not playing, you're mad. You know ahead of time, Hey,
killing the NFL games. You want to go see the Chiefs? Yeah, Dad, Yeah,
But guess what, No Mahomes, no Kelsey, no anybody.
Speaker 2 (12:23):
I don't think, well you don't. You don't present it
that way. You present it with we're going to a
game and hey we got good seats.
Speaker 5 (12:30):
Yeah, we're going to a game and you're gonna watch
Carson Wentz whether you like it or not enjoy.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Yeah, and you know there's still reason, like we said,
incentive reasons to watch and to care.
Speaker 1 (12:39):
But I think this could be fun.
Speaker 2 (12:40):
I don't think how spoiled is your kid if that's
what they care about. When they're eating popcorn, they're having
the fixins, they have a hot dog, you buy them
a jersey. They got better seats and they probably would
have would have got otherwise. I think this is a
perfect time to take your family to a game.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
Two hundred and forty total yards for scat of right now,
they just got a thirteen yard gain on first and
say scatterboos.
Speaker 4 (13:03):
Of course I did I call him scatman, do yeah, scatman.
Speaker 3 (13:06):
Dome threw it away on first and ten from around
the twelve redline. Rich indirectly pretty much put an exclamation
point on this conversation without even trying.
Speaker 2 (13:16):
He doesn't care about Week eighteen. No matter how hard
I try to talk about it, he keeps going back
to this game.
Speaker 1 (13:22):
So clearly you know he doesn't care. Let me tell
you why I don't care.
Speaker 3 (13:26):
I get no, I get why some teams are resting
certain players. I don't want to get in the tired
conversation because everyone else did already on this network and
other networks, right say Kwon Bark.
Speaker 2 (13:36):
We understand, but it is you know, I'm not a
fan of it, but we understand.
Speaker 1 (13:39):
Mahomes is sitting.
Speaker 3 (13:40):
I get it, but I'm saying that some of the ooh,
that could be an interesting scenario, those scenarios are even
lesser because you look at like at Joe Burrow, everyone's
saying the same thing. Wouldn't it be cool if the
Bengals snuck in? Because he has so much, so much excitement.
Now the defense are cincinnat you know, nothing to write
(14:02):
home about.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
I mean, there's a lot of people that bring Joe
Burrow up when it comes to MVP covers.
Speaker 3 (14:07):
Yeah, but guess what that conversation ends when all of
a sudden, the Chiefs are not going to try to
beat Denver.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
So Denver wins. Denver's in.
Speaker 3 (14:15):
So it's like, you know, if the Chiefs were playing,
you'd be like, oh, the schedule plays out the way
it's supposed to.
Speaker 1 (14:20):
The Broncos have.
Speaker 3 (14:21):
To play the Chiefs, and typically the Chiefs would win,
and then all of a sudden, Burrow's got a chance.
Miami's sitting there going like, oh man, we don't got
a chance either now. So I think all those up
interception Texas game over.
Speaker 1 (14:32):
They move on. The game is over. It's over. It's over.
Speaker 3 (14:37):
The kicker has the biggest sy relief. You know who's
going to sleep the easiest today, That dude with the mullet.
Mullet dude Bert Auburn, the kicker for Texas. He would
have been the most hated guy.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
That dude look like Clancy Brown and Bad Boys.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
He would have been the most hated guy in Austin,
Texas had that not gone this way.
Speaker 4 (14:57):
He missed a couple of field goals against Georgia in
the SEC title game.
Speaker 1 (15:00):
My goodness.
Speaker 4 (15:00):
So he's been on kind of a rough couple of games, but.
Speaker 1 (15:03):
Are straighten up before the next round? Huh? And really quick?
Speaker 5 (15:06):
Rich the numbers right now, the Bengals have a four
percent chance of making the playoffs. If they win and
the Jets beat the Dolphins, their chances go up by
seventeen to seventeen percent, And if the Bengals win and
the Chiefs beat the Broncos, their chances go up to
forty three percent.
Speaker 1 (15:22):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (15:22):
I mean the reality is if Broncos win, they're in
and Kansas City's not really playing anyone. So do we
all agree that that that game could just sort of
solidify any little excitement for Week eighteen.
Speaker 1 (15:34):
Other than the big game you spoke of.
Speaker 2 (15:36):
Yeah, I'm just thinking from a kid's perspective or family perspective, right,
I'm thinking back growing up in New Jersey. I always
wanted to go to NFL games, and you know, back
then the Giants were good and Jets whatever. But but yeah,
even they were pretty decent and they had some big
stars at the time. But I remember my dad would
(15:58):
be able to get stupid New Jersey Nerals tickets and
you got to go to the Metal Lands, you got
to go to Giants Stadium to watch them. And that
was exciting to me as a kid because they were
cheap and easy to get if you're able to get
Week eighteen tickets because there's not a lot of competition
in Week eighteen. I think that's something you look forward
to and look for as a family on a budget
(16:21):
heading into the new year, taking your family to a game.
I think this is the one you go to. I'm
just trying to make definitely spelled w e ak. Yeah,
I get it, but I'm seeing it from a fan
perspective of you're just going to the game for the
fun of it, because to be honest, dude, if you're
a real NFL fan, you get a better seat at
home anyway.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
This is these are the games you.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Go to and just have fun with your kids and
the heirs the other the other like, ooh, what could
happen is that NFC South Bucks and Falcons still fighting,
but they both play bottom feeders.
Speaker 3 (16:57):
So the Bucks hold their own destiny. They just have
to beat the Saints at home. Tampa's at home. Baker
Mayfield can't beat the lowly Saints week eighteen. He doesn't
deserve it, So again, I just wish it was more
at state going into Week eight team.
Speaker 1 (17:13):
But you know what, the playoffs are going to be awesome.
Speaker 3 (17:15):
I think this year, and I say that with my
team not even being in it, the playoffs look like they're.
Speaker 1 (17:20):
Gonna shape up to be pretty freaking exciting. I have
a question.
Speaker 3 (17:23):
I just feel like Week eighteen, you know, you get
by by maybe doing some prop bets, guys looking for
incentives and stuff like that.
Speaker 2 (17:30):
It's not something I plan on talking about. But you
mentioned Mayfield. Yeah, gain even more respect. I think we
all did for this guy after the season, right, I
heard your boy Deebo Samuel talking about him, talking about
how he's not the biggest guy, he's not the fastest guy.
I didn't have the best arm, but he plays like
every game's his last. Right, He's a dog, He battles
(17:51):
and he spoke really high on Baker Mayfield, that's fine,
But if you were Brock Perdy, do you want to
hear stuff like that? It's kind of like your girlfriend
talking about another podcast or radio show when you're the host.
You know, Honestly, I'm like, yeah, that's great. No, I
don't really want to hear about it, though I do.
Speaker 1 (18:09):
The best one.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
If you were a rock party, would you want to
hear your teammates hyping up someone else who deserves the praise.
Don't get it wrong, but would you want to hear
that publicly? Because it almost feels like a sneak diss
It almost says what rock party doesn't have, That fight
doesn't have, that dog doesn't play like every game's his last.
Speaker 1 (18:26):
In a world. But he's not saying that directly. You
could take it that way. I'm sorry.
Speaker 3 (18:30):
I have to say it like this in a world,
in a world where so many NBA and NFL players
are in the podcast space, Yeah, aren't they just bounced
to say things that could come across as hell?
Speaker 1 (18:42):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (18:42):
I just feel like, you know, and he's just being honest.
I'm just I'm dissecting it. It could be taken that
we used to have a rock.
Speaker 3 (18:48):
Party shoes, which I'm guessing like a pair of summer Spurries.
I feel like Brock Party wears a loafer. Purdy definitely
wears some sperries.
Speaker 1 (18:55):
Yeah. So if you're Brock Purty, well he's on those
boot commercials, right. Yeah, if you were in some boats,
he's wearing some Hey dudes.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
If you were in some Hayden dudes, like Brock Party,
Rich wears those cheap ones. They're called suck bros. So
if your Brock Pursy got his at Payless suck bros
Perty's and some Ariot boots. Yeah, if you're Brock Purdy,
I wouldn't want to hear it, But yourself in his boots?
Speaker 3 (19:20):
Would you want to hear your one? Are your star
players talk about how Baker Mayfield's the man?
Speaker 1 (19:25):
It's like, you're right, it's sort of like.
Speaker 3 (19:26):
Your wife or girlfriend talking about how some other guys
so successful or ripped.
Speaker 1 (19:30):
Or hung or I don't know, yeah, you heard me.
You don't want to.
Speaker 2 (19:34):
Hear these things as the kiddos say the kiddos, the youngsters,
as you say the younglings. Danny g he was sort
of glazing Baker Mayfield, and I wouldn't like it.
Speaker 1 (19:45):
If I was Brock Party, I wouldn't, I.
Speaker 3 (19:47):
Think the best example of this because there was a
trade and transaction gone wrong. So many of us by
now have seen the O four Red Sox documentary. Yeah,
when Red Sox we're talking about a Rod and how
they would want him over no More.
Speaker 1 (20:03):
Oh yeah, that's horrible. That was Kevin Moore.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
And then the trade didn't go down, and then no
More had to look at his teammates who all were.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Like, oh, yeah, we thought we were getting a Rod. Sorry, sorry,
bro No that was terrible.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
So again you mentioned the Buccaneers and I saw that
clip and it just made me think something I thought
about when I was on the treadmill today.
Speaker 5 (20:24):
Yeah, but Mayfield lost some points because that viral post
that's gone around of him sharing cookies and milk with
his own line. They're sharing a glass of milk with
each other. That is it pretty gross?
Speaker 3 (20:36):
Milk milk might be the grossest beverage to share.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
And look, every everyone's got the in the NFL has
gotten to respect Baker Visuals cookie fill in there.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
I saw that.
Speaker 5 (20:48):
Yeah, he Olignement still took it and took a swig.
Speaker 1 (20:52):
So Week eighteen is it weak.
Speaker 2 (20:53):
Here's what we'll leave you with Fox Sports Radio Nation
and again, congratulations to Texas. Is it weak eighteen or
week eighteen? I tried to give you some reasons to
be hyped about it. Of course, there's a great game
between the Vikings and the Lions. I think it's a
game a week. You take your family out there and
about there and have some fun with them. But there
(21:16):
you have it.
Speaker 1 (21:17):
Rich. I know you had incentives. You said you were
gonna bet on, but you didn't even mention that. I'll
give you a couple of incentives and we'll get to those. Next.
Speaker 3 (21:23):
We'll talk a little more NFL. This is a really
funny Tom Brady Gronk story. We'll talk some NBA and
of course keep you in the loop on college football today,

Speaker 3 (22:29):
A lot of NFL college football going on as we speak,
but let's go to Ilo for an update.
Speaker 1 (22:35):
Isaac Loewencron, Happy New Year, fellows.
Speaker 6 (22:38):
We begin at the Rose Bowl, where Ohio State has
a seven to nothing lead over Oregon eight point fifty
left to play in the first quarter. Oregon a fourth
and eight and it's twenty two yard line, about to
punt the ball away. Ohio State scoring on a forty
five yard touchdown pass from Will Howard to Jeremiah Smith
on the opening drive of the game. The winner will
face Texas in the College Football Playoff semi Finals. Because
(23:01):
in the Peach Bowl, the Longhorns prevailed in double overtime
over Arizona State thirty nine thirty one. Texas led twenty
four to eight with six thirty two left in the
fourth Arizona State tied it on two touchdowns and two
to two point conversions. Texas then missed two field goals
for the lead in the final one thirty nine of
the fourth quarter. Arizona State scored a touchdown on the
(23:23):
first possession of overtime to take a thirty one to
twenty four lead, and then Texas faced a fourth down
and thirteen at the Sun Devil twenty eight yard line.
Here was Craig Way on k vt.
Speaker 7 (23:35):
A's the snap, fourth to thirteen yours, looking fires, He's
got golden open.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
He caught it. Touchdowns. Texas two golden strikes again twenty.
Speaker 7 (23:45):
Eight yards on fourth down and thirteen in the long Horns.
Speaker 6 (23:49):
Scored touchdown to save the game. Texas scored a touchdown
and a two point conversion on its second possession of
overtime to go up thirty nine to thirty one, and
then arizon Zona State had a third and eight at
the Texas ten yard line.
Speaker 2 (24:03):
Sam Levitt on third down play action, Clevitt looks fires
for the intel.
Speaker 7 (24:07):
Cats intercepted, picked up, intercepted, and Groupacuba. Texas is going
to the final four Holo on horns, winning in double
overtime thirty nine thirty one.
Speaker 6 (24:20):
Despite Arizona State's Cam Skataboo running for one hundred and
forty three yards with two touchdowns, he had eight catches
for ninety nine yards. He also threw a forty two
yard touchdown pass, accounting for two hundred and eighty four
yards of total offense. Finally, Tonight's Sugar Bowl game between
Georgia and Notre Dame was postponed until Thursday at four
pm Eastern time three pm Central time, in the wake
(24:42):
of the attack overnight on Bourbon Street that killed at
least ten people, the attack occurring approximately one mile away
from the Superdome authority, say the Sugar Bowl Committee, in
fact saying with law enforcement assets that would typically be
allocated to an event of this stature currently in game,
active investigations related to the incident. The postponement will allow
(25:04):
for additional security resources to be put in place in
order to maintain typical security standards at the Supernome.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
Guys, back to you, Thank you, Skataboo. That's long Crown,
He's our.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Boo, loving you Skataboos Livematirack dot Com Studio again where
Cavino and Rich Dannyg's on the phones at eight seven,
seven ninety nine one Fox iOS, Sam on the ones
and twos spot getting ready for Midweek Major Next Hour.
The biggest stories in the world of sports and pop
culture are they mid week? Like Week eighteen of the
NFL or Major and Rich you said you missed some
(25:36):
major storylines because you know, we were in the middle
of the holiday season. You forget what they it is.
Did you hear about the new conspiracy? No, it's not
drones or plasmoids. It's the fog. Have you heard about
the fog?
Speaker 1 (25:53):
Is there a bad movie about this? No? But there's
like a chemical fog.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
The people everybody's waking up and they're like something like this,
why is this so foggy out? Yeah, but they're like,
is this in that was the bees? Was this snow happening?
Is this trees nature was killing us. Is this involved
with the drones? Why is there so much fog? And
then apparently there's a weird fog like all over the
(26:18):
country and people are trying to figure it out. It's
called I love a good conspiracy, and we love some
good Aaron Rodgers talk. So when the tanker drops and
the air is warm, it creates not a boister in
the air, which.
Speaker 1 (26:31):
Well, that's about the government and aliens working together. It
must be the answer. You can't wait to hear Aaron
Rodgers take on this. The most complex is always the
right answer.
Speaker 2 (26:39):
But Aaron Rodgers always gets himself involved in some sort
of sound bite or controversy. He hasn't mentioned the fog yet,
but that that is a fun one on social media,
so it has to be true. He has said something though,
that has gone viral. I thought it was a fake,
like an onion story, and you have to ask yourself,
(27:00):
is he serious and I think he is? Or is
he saying this just so that people talk about him.
Take a listen and listen closely to what Aaron Rodgers
has said.
Speaker 8 (27:09):
Gratitude. Honestly, it's been the best two years of my life.
Now that's a perspective adjustment that happened, I think at
some point during the reab process last year. But just
the excitement falling back in love with the game, getting
to know these guys in the here and getting to
know the great men and women to work here. Obviously,
on the field has been short of expectations, no doubt,
but this game is more than just that. This game
is about the relationships by the things that really last
(27:29):
longer than this, lasts longer than your health does, and
lasts longer than your body being able to play. So
I'm really thankful for the men and women I met
here in New Jersey and the experiences I got to
have with my teammates and joined the city, And obviously
wish things would have gotten better on the field, but
put nothing with gratitude for this time in my life.
Speaker 2 (27:44):
Man, I just got back from New Jersey and it's great,
but it's not that great. Great pizza, great Taylor Ham sandwiches.
It was great to see my parents, but it's not
that great. The question is you hear the sham Aaron Rodgers.
Speaker 3 (27:54):
Does it make you understand him more or just roll
your eyes at him more? Because when you talk about
He said the injury gave him the ability to fall
in love with the game all over when he, you know,
found himself not learning how to play again, but getting
back on the field. Moore said all the right things,
but the best two years of his life.
Speaker 1 (28:16):
That's crazy.
Speaker 3 (28:17):
More and more important than W's might be those relationships
he talks about.
Speaker 1 (28:21):
Which is true. Here. I wrote down notes because I
was like, is this a joke? I wrote?
Speaker 2 (28:27):
I understand, I knew. I understand everything he said and
is beautiful. I understand, but I don't necessarily like it
as a sports fan. As a sports fan, and I
get it, you could separate your professional life to your
personal life. But he's Aaron Rodgers, the football player. How
in the world could he say these are the best
two years of his life. That's hard to wrap your
fat head around. I have a hard time believe in that.
(28:49):
I believe that's a great outlook for him to have.
I just don't know if that's possible.
Speaker 3 (28:53):
You know, one of our peals, Gary Vee, the motivational
dude on social media.
Speaker 1 (28:57):
Of course, I know Gary v. Is that rhetorical question, yes,
is actually okay?
Speaker 3 (29:01):
Gary Vaynerchuk, Garry Vannderchuck, Gary vaer Chuck. I mean he
talks about how in life he keeps it real, but
when he's a sports fan, he realizes that when you're
a fan, a fanatic, your mind allows you to think illogically.
You you root and care more than you should about
(29:22):
certain things. That's part of being a fan. So, as
a fan, do you want to hear Aaron Rodgers say
these are the two best years.
Speaker 1 (29:28):
Of his life.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
We as fan, we as fans have odd expectations of
athletes and coaches.
Speaker 1 (29:34):
You gotta tell me for us.
Speaker 3 (29:35):
Doug gott leaves a coach, he puts a picture, or
he puts a picture on the holidays, and what do
people say?
Speaker 1 (29:39):
Immediately? Yeah, stop with it, get back to the gym.
Yeah no, it's true of family should be working.
Speaker 2 (29:45):
We all wear two different hats, right, personal and professional? Actually,
Cam Newton wears lots of hats, actually lots of things. Yeahs,
all sorts of Mounti hats.
Speaker 3 (29:54):
Did he say baseball was going to take a back
seat to the w NBA. He's a hot air balloon's
talking at his ass.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
We all wear different hats, but I find it impossible
for this guy to have had this injury and to
have played as bad as he's played and the team
has been how about the embarrassing last game?
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Holy, Holy Mother of God.
Speaker 2 (30:17):
There's no way, there's no way you could say is
the best two years of your life?
Speaker 1 (30:20):
No, give me a goodies, Holy Mother of God. You
know what.
Speaker 2 (30:26):
I just watched twilights On the movie. As you know,
we had a twilights on marathon in the past few days.
And when the guy steps out to see the plane
and the damage that the at the beast had done
outside of the plane, and.
Speaker 4 (30:40):
He goes, Holy Toledo.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
So I was a little confused there.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
So Holy Toledo, you're gonna tell me that he had
the best two years of his life. Like I said,
it's beautiful to find the silver lining in all this.
Speaker 1 (30:58):
What does it mean? God?
Speaker 2 (31:00):
Why have I suffered? And you know, he says, I've
made great relationships. I fell in love with it. These
are all wonderful things. As a sports fan, I don't
like it. Man to man, I get it, I understand.
But as a sports fan, as we're doing here on
Fox Sports, we're talking sports beat it, I don't want
to hear that. You think I want to hear Aaron
(31:21):
Judge talk about how great his last year has been.
Speaker 1 (31:23):
Like, really, dude, you dropped the ball.
Speaker 3 (31:26):
You see how someone SYNCD up that if you started
watching game five at a certain point.
Speaker 1 (31:31):
Aaron Judge dropped the ball at midnight. And by the way,
he announced, you know, he's having a baby.
Speaker 2 (31:35):
Hey, personally, I'm happy for him, but professionally, I want
that to fire you up and drive you like.
Speaker 1 (31:41):
Does that do I mean it's tummy. He's gonna start
looking like Soto's Yes, no.
Speaker 2 (31:45):
No, you you almost as a fan want a level
of discontent from the athletes that aren't producing.
Speaker 1 (31:50):
You don't want to hear this the grandest time ever.
You said it?
Speaker 3 (31:54):
Best roll back what you said thirty seconds ago through
this earth Man to man, I get it as a
sports fan.
Speaker 1 (32:01):
Get the hell out of here. That's it.
Speaker 2 (32:03):
You know, those are the two different hats we wear.
Athletes are people too, you know, but think about it,
professional just like us. Yeah, but dude, they're known. We
watch Aaron Rodgers the football player. We don't watch Aaron
Rodgers the man, right, that's who we enigma. Yeah, that's
Aaron Rodgers man.
Speaker 3 (32:20):
But you know what, I agree, because there are times
like I go back. Hey, we're coming up on the
five year anniversary of COVID, right, there's a crappy year.
Speaker 1 (32:29):
We lost a gig. You know this too. I lost
two gigs.
Speaker 3 (32:33):
Some people lost, some people lost family members. Yeah, I
mean it was a lot of bad stuff. But you
know what, personally for me, my wife and I had
a baby that year. We bought a house that year.
Thinks is when people like, how was it? In my mind,
I'm like, you know what, A lot went down. That
was a pretty awesome year, worst year ever. But but what
I'm saying is I get man to man versus what
(32:54):
you want to hear are two different things. You want
Aaron Rogers to be like, Man, you know what, I'm embarrassed.
The worst years of my life. Sorry Jets, sorry everyone,
Sorry fans.
Speaker 2 (33:04):
Then you know what, Rich, Then if you really think
these are the two best years of your life.
Speaker 1 (33:08):
You heard him, there's a girlfriend and he's happy. I
get it.
Speaker 2 (33:12):
Then you know what, but preface it with that he
doesn't live, no, But preface it with that, you know, man,
I didn't meet my expectations. There you go, I feel
like he's yeah, but I feel like you really got
to emphasize that before you tell me how great your
life has been.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Seriously, as a fan.
Speaker 3 (33:31):
If Aaron Rodgers found love, he did, yeah, and he said,
you know what, it really put football in perspective. He's
on his ayahuasca journeys. If he's happy and healthy, lose
That's how people lose their hunger. Though rich, you need
something to fight for. You need that that chip on
your shoulder, that that anger. You need that extra motivation
sometimes to compete, that extra edge.
Speaker 2 (33:53):
These dudes are hungry. In the NFL, he's too content
sitting back with his feet up. That's not who you
want leading your team. So as a sport fan, it
does rub me the wrong way a little bit. You
want to at least have the illusion that whoever's leading
that team is is thinking about all the time, Like
like Dan Campbell said, he thinks.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
About that all the time.
Speaker 2 (34:13):
Some people lose that and he yeah, and that's fun.
I gain happiness, But you don't want that.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
Well your thoughts on that, plus I said, there is
one reason to watch Week eighteen of the NFL. I
have about five different possible prop bets based on incentives
players are going to get. It might be a little fun.
You could have Week eighteen. We'll do that next right here,
Cavino and Rich on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 2 (34:36):
You know everybody is all about Marcia, Marcia Marcia. But
today today it is jan first, it's the first of
the most.
Speaker 4 (34:48):
Saw that off a meme.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
I saw that too. I wrote that meme. Bro oh wow, yeah,
I invented it. Well, Steve Cavino, inventor Cove wishing you
a happy New Year. That's Rich Davis.
Speaker 3 (34:58):
No every d meme you there is an inventor that
doesn't get credit. Yeah, I stole the credit.
Speaker 1 (35:03):
Just now. There is some one guy that's like that
is mine.
Speaker 4 (35:06):
Out of reckless industry.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
I said it on Fox Sports so it's mine. Anyway.
I hope you had a great weekend. What's today Wednesday?
Speaker 3 (35:13):
Wednesday, the first of January. Welcome to CNR on FSR.
Speaker 2 (35:18):
Yeah, hey, I want to say this, thanks to everybody
who filled in for us.
Speaker 1 (35:21):
We also filled in for Dan Patrick.
Speaker 2 (35:23):
So if you missed any of those shows, we did
a very successful Dan Patrick Patrick catch it on the podcast.
We fill in for Colin on Friday, so make note
of that. Wake Up with Us Friday morning on Fox
Sports Radio on the Herd CNR in for the Herd.
But it's great to be back. Great to see you, Danny,
G and Sam.
Speaker 4 (35:40):
And really quick.
Speaker 5 (35:41):
Ohio State has jumped out to a fourteen to nothing
lead in the Rose.
Speaker 1 (35:44):
Bowl and they have the ball and their past midfield.
Speaker 3 (35:47):
Ooh, your brother in law who's a big Ohio State fan, Yeah,
must be happy right now.
Speaker 1 (35:52):
Oh, he's pumped, He's super pumped.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
I want to give you guys a couple of reasons
we talked about how week eighteen, I'm sorry, Week eighteen,
other than the Lions and Vikings, which you know obviously
got flex to that Sunday night and the season game,
because Kansas City is sitting their stars.
Speaker 1 (36:12):
Stars stars, you're not stars. You're not gonna get.
Speaker 3 (36:17):
A legit Broncos Chiefs game, which means, I mean, maybe
Carson Wentz delivers. I mean he's fighting for something, right,
But the whole point of that game was, ooh, if
the Chiefs beat the Broncos, then Joe Burrow or the
Dolphins have a shot to sneak into the playoffs. But
now it seems like the Kansas City Chiefs are just
(36:39):
getting ready for the playoffs, and by sitting their stars,
they're gonna have a lot of rest because they won't
play this week. They won't play week one in the
wild card, so you're again counting on weeks and weeks
of rest, and we've seen that go either way.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Yeah, health is wealth. I get it. So I get it.
Speaker 3 (36:56):
The Saquon thing, maybe we'll touch on later. Everyone else's I.
Speaker 2 (37:00):
Get it, but I don't again, safety measures again sort
of week, Yeah, kind of week.
Speaker 1 (37:07):
But here's a couple of things you could bet on.
Speaker 2 (37:09):
But you know what if he broke the record sort
of week anyway, you know, no one would have gave
him the credit.
Speaker 3 (37:14):
Do you think that plays into it? Part of me
thinks it does. You're avoiding, you're avoiding a meaningless debate.
Speaker 2 (37:20):
Yeah, he would have had it, done it last week
to get that full pat on the back.
Speaker 1 (37:24):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (37:25):
Think of how long until the steroid era. There are
still people that were like.
Speaker 1 (37:29):
Well, Roger marriage did any more games than Babe Ruth.
People were arguing about that sixty years ago. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 2 (37:36):
So I mean, like we hadded another game. People want
more football. Dickerson's relieved. Oh he's happy. Yeah, and he
made no, he didn't want that broken. I don't blame
him and he made no Uh. He wasn't try about
it either.
Speaker 1 (37:46):
Eh.
Speaker 2 (37:47):
I don't blame him. I appreciate the honesty. But a
couple guys, let me let me throw these out there.
Speaker 3 (37:50):
If you're looking for some prop bets, Mike Evans big
incentives if he catches five passes for eighty five or
more yards. So if you look at some prop bets
to make the bucks still put up some points this
week for sure, Mike Evans, you got Tony Pollard needs
fifty three yards Gino Smith, this is a big one.
If he gets ten wins. I believe a million dollar
(38:13):
incentive kicks in, which means Gino is at nine wins
now ten.
Speaker 1 (38:18):
Wins money on the Seahawks, and he.
Speaker 3 (38:20):
Needs one hundred and eighty five plus yards passing for
another big I think half a million dollar incentives much.
So Gino's playing for a lot of money. So I
expect Gino Smith to be balling. Expect Mike Evans to
be balling.
Speaker 1 (38:33):
JK.
Speaker 3 (38:33):
Dobbins has one hundreds of thousands of dollars on the line.
If these are fun reasons to watch, but fifty eight
plus yards for JK. Dobbins, Derrick Henry gets another five
hundred thousand dollars if he gets a touchdown, so money
on that. So again, maybe you parlay all these little
(38:53):
fun things into one.
Speaker 1 (38:54):
Bet.
Speaker 4 (38:55):
Here's the thing with Gino and the Seahawks. Great if
they get to ten wins, awesome, but they've already been
a limnated from playoff contention. So it's cheap. It's a
cheap little bonus incentive.
Speaker 1 (39:04):
Who you're eating for the player of the billion dollar organization.
Speaker 4 (39:07):
Don't I don't care about his incentive. It doesn't it
doesn't mean anything.
Speaker 1 (39:10):
It's it's anything, but I get it for him personally.
Speaker 4 (39:14):
I know it's good.
Speaker 3 (39:15):
It would have been it would have been fun if
that Seahawks Rams game meant if it came down to that.
But it's already tie breaker goes the Rams way, so
it's already settled. But hey, Gino, Tony Pollard, he's got
something to play for it.
Speaker 5 (39:28):
Derrick Henry DeAndre Hopkins needs a bunch of catches DeAndre
Hopkins and he goes buck.
Speaker 3 (39:33):
Wild, like over one hundred and twenty five yards or something.
So there's a lot of them, you know what. I'll
post some of them at Covine on Rich so you
can play along. And we got more seeing our fun
New Year's Day right here, Fox Sports Radio
