reason to celebrate, well we're here Covino and Rich No. No,
It's Jordan's birthday man. And over the weekend, Rich, I
was searching the Goat app to find a pair of

(01:29):
og I think there are two thousand and twenty one
Rob Parker specials. Rob Parker has them the Georgetown Jordan Forest,
those blue ones with the gray cement. I'm willing to
pay over three hundred dollars for some Jordan forst because
for for a guy that hasn't played in decades is

(01:50):
the plan? Kids today who never ever even seen a highlight,
know the brand and know the sneaker. Jordan is sixty
two and Rich post is a question, see the most
popular guy of our lifetime in the past fifty years,
in the past fifty years, and can anyone ever compete
with that sort of branding at this stage of the game.
And my only question to that, Rich is, I mean,

(02:13):
it's hard to debate but you don't think that people
at one point thought there'd never be another Kareem or
another Babe Ruth, And of course there was. There was
a Michael Jordan. There was a lot of other international stars.
Since shit, it's tough. International is the game changer here,
There's gonna be another guy internationally who's the greatest thing going,

(02:34):
Mike who runs his place? Who you know the guy Mike?
He said, I thought it was Rick from Punt Stars.
Mike who runs his place? Maybe not Jordan level.

Speaker 3 (02:42):
But what Tiger Woods did.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
For golf, and that's a good answer. I mean, it
was a niche sport where it's like, yeah, your dad
might have watched the US Open or the Masters or something.
But yeah, Tiger Woods did bring a whole new audience
to golf. But he did have a big partnership with Nike,
had his own brand, but not to the Jordan level. There's,

(03:04):
I think, in fact, not the why. I think. I
know that in the last fifty twelve hundred years, no
bigger star on planet Earth than Michael Jordan. And I
don't think there's an athlete capable of ever having a
brand as big as Jordan's. As I look down on
my feet. I'm wearing Jordan's today too, So why don't
you why don't you hit up Steven A. Smith and
tell him this because they still debate, you know, who's

(03:29):
to goa Jordan or Lebron? Those debates are eye roll ya.
So if you're so adamant and IF's so obvious, and
it does feel kind of obvious in this context of
his brand and the branding, right, then how is this
still a debate? Because when you think of overall international
legacy in the branding that's behind this guy, how is

(03:51):
that even a conversation still, Let's go to Nate in Vegas.
We'll start with you, Kevino on Retchan's up, buddy.

Speaker 4 (03:58):
How you guys doing good?

Speaker 2 (03:59):
Mail up?

Speaker 5 (04:01):
Good? We guys keep talking about dudes and guys. My
thought was, Caitlin Clark's got a pretty good start. Jordan
changed the game. Kaitlin Clark, I would argue, has changed
the WNBA or women's basketball just in one.

Speaker 6 (04:16):
Year, no doubt in what he did.

Speaker 2 (04:18):
That's a great answer. I mean she has changed that
sport more than most have changed any other sport. Really,
game change are no question, But could her branding be
as large.

Speaker 1 (04:29):
That's what I was going to say, is this conversation
about who's changed their sport the most or who could
have a brand as huge as Jordan?

Speaker 2 (04:37):
Yeah, Rich was talking about can anyone compete in that
sort of legacy of branding, just like the thought of
how big his popularity transcended as a result, I have
a question, as you said, is he the most popular
in the past fifty years? And can anyone even compete
with that? At that point, Danny, look up real quick,
if you don't mind, how many humans on plant Earth?

(05:02):
What's your guests? Three three billion? How many human that's
a good question, how many?

Speaker 3 (05:09):
How many?

Speaker 1 (05:09):
How many omens? Eight point two billion? Eight billion?

Speaker 2 (05:14):
People? Would you agree that the name Michael Jordan would
have the highest percentage of the average random human doing
name recognition? Probably not. You're in the context of Fox
Sports Radio, where most of your life is revolving around sports.

(05:37):
Who has not heard of the name I'm saying is
probably a world leader, I would guess. Okay, Donald Trump
might be the answer, Abe, but you don't a world leader. Again,
Now you're still really ethnocentric in your thoughts. You're not
thinking internationally. I mean, Donald Trump would probably be one
of those guys world leaders. Then you're asking worldwide, you're

(06:02):
talking about eight billion people. Doesn't matter what I don't,
It doesn't come down to me. I think, you know
a kid from Jersey. I think if you listed the
most famous people on planet Earth and give it to uh,
you know, people in random third world countries, it's a
really tough family feud question. He has a lot of
people to ask. We surveyed eight billion people. Steve Harvey's

(06:22):
mustache would be wiggling for that one. That's a tough one.
But I think Michael Jordan, if not the number one,
he's a top ten most recognizable name. I would beg
you to find someone that's like Michael Jordan's never heard
of Well, there was a point in time. Can you imagine,
imagine meeting someone and they're like, Michael Jordan, never heard
of them. There was a point in time, as an
eighties kid growing up where the stat according to I

(06:45):
don't know, readers digest the Parade or People magazine or something,
I don't know, some random I'm Matt, Yeah, the stat
used to say that the three most recognizable people in
the world where or Charac there's the figures in the
world worldwide where Mickey Mouse, Michael Jackson, and I think
it was Hulk Holgan at one point because of the

(07:07):
yellow and the red. It was recognizable worldwide. You know,
people knew that at one point. So you're saying, at
one point it just turned into Michael Jordan. I think so, Larry,
you know, Illinois, what's up, Larry Hey, how you guys doing, Larry?
People have these tired debates of the goat and this
and that and the sneakers, and I just argue that

(07:28):
there's no more famous human than Michael Jordan. It's just
I can't see anyone on Earth not knowing the name
Michael Jordan.

Speaker 7 (07:35):
Well, what what Jordan and Nike did, especially in the
world golf I love baseball obviously, is they attacked all
the other sports. I mean you look at golfers have
golf shoes that are Jordan's. You know, there's baseball, there's football.

(07:57):
I mean he made he makes a football cleague, he
makes football uniforms that have his jump on it.

Speaker 2 (08:03):
It's wild. I'm telling you, I'm not understanding it because
we don't talk Jordan a lot on our show. We
never have those Jordan Lebron debates, but it's his birthday,
and it just dawned on me that I don't know
if anyone could ever really do it again. It's almost
like first in wins, like a soda could the SODA's
never gonna be Coca cola unless it does? Will there

(08:24):
ever be a soft drink more popular than Coca Cola?
To say never, though, it sounds so what's the word?
It just sounds wild that you would you would think
never when, like I said, we're on the blip of
the timeline, James, our life is so short. You don't
think in another one hundred years or something, there's gonna

(08:45):
be someone else. You think we're still gonna be having
these conversations one hundred years now. Crazy, Let's let's take
it back. I know sports are evolving more than ever now,
but if you go back to the last, you know,
one hundred and fifty years, modern day sport, Babe Ruth
might be the only name in the conversation with Michael Jordan,

(09:08):
and that's slowly being replaced by a guy named Shohe
who has international fame. All right, James and San Antonio,
what's up? James?

Speaker 3 (09:18):
Hey?

Speaker 8 (09:18):
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing at the last
car just said, Jordan's got so many other players from
other sports repping his logo that I feel like his
brand and his product is going to last for as
long as it wants to.

Speaker 4 (09:32):
Be in business.

Speaker 8 (09:32):
There's no question about it. There's been other players that
have come close, like Frank Thomas or King Griffley or
Bo Jackson, but they didn't get past it. So I
think Jordan's going to always be the biggest to go
on branding and athletes of all time.

Speaker 2 (09:48):
James, speaking of the logo, is he wearing shorts or
pants in the jump Man logo? Well, now you got
me confused. Why would I not know right out the
tooting common knowledge that he's wearing pantalones. You could see.

Speaker 3 (10:04):
This is like staring at the KFC logo.

Speaker 2 (10:06):
Now I just see, Now, I just see. It's not
a it's not a bot tie. It's his arms and
legs on. You assume he's wearing shorts because you know
he's in the NBA, but he's wearing like his pants.

Speaker 4 (10:17):
You know.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
Now you're gonna make me look it up. And if
you have Jordan's and the Jordan Jumpman has a butt crack,
those are the fake ones. Yeah, those are for gazy.
Those are the fake Jordans. Those are dairy air Jordans.
You know what, fake ones have a butt crack, you know, cove.
The real Jordans don't have a butt crack. I'm not
saying it never dawned on me, but for some reason,
I never looked at it close enough to be like, yeah,

(10:39):
he's wearing like the warm up pants. He's wearing pants
in the logo. Wait, is this one of those No,
that's it. It's always one of those Mendela facts where
I don't wear No, it was all shorts, Bro Jackson, Casey,
what's up? Jack's coavit on? Rich?

Speaker 4 (10:54):
Hey, what's up? Fellows?

Speaker 3 (10:55):
A great show?

Speaker 4 (10:56):
Thanks, by the way, I mean my fifties are never
to own a pair of Georgian's. They were just too expensive.
That's crazy to me that people would pay that much
money for those shoes. But here, here's here's the three
things that made Jordan who Jordan is. Number three. He
was a winner and a drive to win that we've
never seen before or since in my opinion. Number two.

(11:17):
Number two the marketing with Mars Black Men, and at
that particular time, the hip hop culture that it tapped into.
Spike Lee was so huge as part of that culture
that that's what also brought it to light. But number
number one cable television. I understand. I live in Kansas City,
been here all my life. WGN was a national station

(11:41):
that played Bulls games night every night, so as fans
all over the country watch Bulls games every day. And
so when you combine those three things together, that is
what put Jordan's whole brand, everything about him at a
level that nobody's ever going because we're not galvanized enough.

(12:03):
You know, with social media, everybody's in their own little bubble,
everybody's in their own little pocket, so nobody has a
way to bring that many odds. Remember back in those days,
millions of people watched nightly Moves at five thirty.

Speaker 2 (12:17):
Dude during Kennon. It's a different world now. The example
I love to use Jacks is we all know the
same sitcoms and dumb shows and cartoons from the eighties
and nineties because there were only a few shows like
if you like, hey, do you remember a Cosby Show
or Growing Pains or Different Strokes or Full House. You
know why we do because there weren't that many options.

(12:39):
Now two kids that are the same age, two five
year olds could watch completely different cartoons, tons of options. Yeah,
I mean we said it perfect storm, and he nailed it.
If Jordan didn't win and he wasn't a winner, you
might well, no, you wouldn't have had the same results.
But Nike also invested in the right guy, fixed storm

(13:01):
of marketing, and it really was. It really was. They
invested in the right guy at the right time. He
delivered and it all worked out for the guy. So
happy birthday, extra happy birthday to sixty two year old
Michael Jordan. There you go, Hey coming up? Uh? I
do you want to talk a little NFL? I know,
I know we're we're taking like a mental time out

(13:22):
where week removed from the Super Bowls. Everyone sort of
like taking that deep, that deep breath like man NFL
season in the books. But you don't want to talk
about the Sikhai Ti Kai. I mean way bigger right now,
to be honest, everybody's talking about it, you know, I do.
I do think that I find it interesting when I

(13:44):
meet other people, like you know, if you're like roughly
fortyish people that are like Ye're not interested. I'm like,
didn't you love karate kids as a youngster. I do
enjoy Cobra Kai, but I have somebodies that are, yeah,
I'm not interested. It's then they're lame. But I don't know.
I'm interested in my buddy. It's just such a show. Oh,

nine on Fox. The most buttery voice in radio, The
smooth Danny g Mark is here. Thank you guys, Fox
Sports Radio Nation for hanging with us again. We're on
from two to four on the West, five to seven

(15:12):
on the East Monday through Friday.

Speaker 3 (15:13):
Cavino and Rich.

Speaker 2 (15:14):
As we shout out the Mako people that we met
at the Super Bowl. Yeah, good people. That's where I
had the conversation with LeVar.

Speaker 3 (15:21):
Oh you were doing your two man show.

Speaker 2 (15:23):
Well, here's what happened. We were having cocktails with a
bunch of the sponsors and just a good time in
New Orleans, and I.

Speaker 3 (15:29):
Roll up with my college Hall of Famer, by the way, LaVar.

Speaker 2 (15:32):
I mean, what a guy, right, I mean, one of
the funniest dudes. I love LeVar. I'm having my Tito's
and soda. He strolls up. He pulls the straw out
of my drink and throws away. He's like, what are
you doing a straw? And that started a whole two
man show where Levar's telling me that I can't have
a straw in my cocktail. I thought that was stand

(15:52):
thered the little bar straw, he said, hold on, He
said it was also the way you were sipping in
like he had his pinky pink.

Speaker 1 (16:01):
Yeah, and he said, bent the straw down to fit
into your mouth like a little woods.

Speaker 2 (16:06):
Rich originally asked for a silly straw, you know, the
little circle lead loops. But yeah, he was saying it
was the way you were doing it too. So straw
with a cocktail is a no no depending on how Yeah.
And Rich also asked for an umbrella and a sword
for his little pineapple fruit. I mean, who doesn't shout
out to the makeup people, shout out to our buddy
LeVar from two pros and a cup of job. All right,

(16:28):
why did Lebron ruin everything? Hold on, I need to
preface this. I don't want the Lebron smoke, as I
saw how he ruined Doug Gottlieb's day yesterday.

Speaker 1 (16:38):
And best believe we are on live on AM five
seventy the Blowtorch in southern California. Better believe it, Lebron
is waking up hearing you bozos right now.

Speaker 2 (16:49):
Say hey, Lebron, let it be known that me Covino here,
I'm a fan, and I will say this respectful and
as he kissing the Kings ass. My dad's gonna, why
are you kissing Lebron's ah? Why are you kissing his as?
I don't know, Dad, I'm just trying to be diplomatic here.
I don't hate Lebron. Sounds like you're kissing his ah.

(17:10):
Sounds like no, I will say, when you live under
a microscope. Guy's been famous since he's you know, been
out of high school. Before high school. You gotta give
props first before you bring these things up, because he
rarely missteps and he's done so many things right. Imagine
if you were under that microscope, camera's on you all

(17:31):
the time, how many times you would have misstepped right?
So probably be in prison. I think this is a
misstep for Lebron, and it's kind of funny. So he
got You're right. He has been under the microscope since
he was a teenager. And to think there's very few
bad things anyone could say about Lebron James, if that's
kissing his ass, then so I'll also say this, I

(17:55):
am not guilt free here. I've also made this mistake before,
and I'll tell you my story.

Speaker 3 (18:01):
So again, James smoke that time you dissed a kid
at the Olympics.

Speaker 2 (18:05):
No, no, no, you'll hear about it, and I'll tell
you what if you guys don't know my story. Lebron
James did call out Doug Gottlieb yesterday and Doug is like, yeah,
I really don't care. I don't care. There was it
was a lot of drama here at Fox Sports Radio
though yesterday. Come on, Doug loves it. He has to.
I would love it. Hey, Lebron, feel free to call
me out. I really don't care. Ron made fun of
Doug for having a three and twenty four record as

(18:28):
a coach. Don't you have anything better to do on
your day off? I'm Doug Gottliebe everybody, So here's what happened.
The way in a few weeks I might have more
coaching wins in little.

Speaker 3 (18:39):
Week is a low blow.

Speaker 2 (18:41):
What I'm just saying. I'm a coach. Oh you know
now you're coach coach Davis. I'm coach Rich Give me,
give me a couple of weeks. So again, give me
what I coming for what I say about Lebron. I
say I respectful. My team's one to know, but I
do mean what I say Covino and Rich on Fox
Sports Radio in for Dan Patrick, Danny G. I need

(19:03):
you on standby in case I say anything out of
line or wrong, because you're the resident Lakers fan. But
this is the story as I know it, all right,
eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. It's All Star weekend.
Most of us weren't doing in right. There's a lot
of criticism. We talked about it yesterday. Man, it sucked.
Even Draymond Green said it sucked. Trey Young said it suck.

(19:25):
Everybody said it suck. What Draymon say on a scale
of one to ten zero, Yeah, yeah, I mean people
did not hold back on their thoughts and feelings about
the All Star Game. I mean David Kevin Love was
chirping yesterday. Did you see that Danny G about Hey,
if you want people to participate. He was calling out
Mac mclung winning three years in a row.

Speaker 1 (19:46):
I would think we should call him out for some
of his jokes during those twenty minute breaks.

Speaker 2 (19:49):
Yeah, well, I think didn't Kevin Durant even say, hey,
if you get to criticize it so much, hey, let's
just not have an All Star weekend and we could
just chill. He did I got it right here, he
tweeted out last night. I think it's more fun to
complain about the NBA than to actually watch it. Crazy,
cancel All Star weekend, and let's just give everybody a
break since we're so miserable around this time. It's true,

(20:14):
but you're just calling it as you see it. I mean,
but people don't think to not like it. People want
to lie. But think about it this way, guys. We
brought this up like a month ago, and we focused
on how Charles Barkley and Shack and all the the
you would say, the face of the NBA as far
as broadcasters and pregame and post game, they're roasting the league.

(20:38):
Kevin Hart, Kevin Hart's essentially doing stand up about how
bad it is. The players are saying it. No other
sport poops on itself like the NBA. Imagine if you
know a Rod and Jeter and Big Papa, Big Papa,
Big poppy Papa you brought to life. Imagine if they

(20:59):
were like, yeah, baseball stinks. Imagine if you know Kevin
Burkhard and Joe Buck and Collinsworth they were all like, yeah,
you know, the NFL stinks. Yeah, they're trying to lift
the sport. They're trying to polish a turn. So the
NBIA is doing nothing to help itself, right, And that's
the same as we see it, right, So at least
they're being genuine about it because we also feel the

(21:21):
same thing. And they're just calling it as you see it,
and now I'm calling it as I see it now.
So it's All Star weekend. Everybody had their criticisms. To
my understanding, Lebron's there and he's an All Star, and
last minute he's like, yeah, I'm not going to play,
and you got to put yourself in his size sixteen shoes.

(21:44):
Probably wanted to see how he felt. That's what I'm imagining,
and then realized, like, you know what's not worth it?
Not playing?

Speaker 3 (21:52):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (21:52):
Wow, first time in twenty years that he wasn't active
in the game, And you're honest to be fair, did
the same thing, but.

Speaker 2 (21:59):
It asked to disappointment. In all fairness, gianness isn't Lebron, right.
Lebron has done a lot to lift the league. I
don't say that the kiss ass, but last minute, you
know what you're doing. Now you're taking the roster spot
of someone else. Someone else could have been there had
he made this decision sooner, but maybe he was really
waiting it out, giving the benefit of the doubt, waited

(22:21):
out to the last minute to see if he felt
good enough. But his tootsi's hurt, his ankle hurt, whatever
saw needed the rest wasn't good enough to play.

Speaker 3 (22:32):
Now.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
Criticism number one again roster spot taken. I'm not really
worried about that. Well, you know what, you're not in
the NBA, bozo, What if you wanted to be on
an All Star team? That would have been kind of
cool in a league that complains about the weekend? Who's Lebron?
Who's he taking a spot for anybody? Someone that doesn't
deserve to be there anyway? Well, I mean that's not

(22:56):
necessarily true because Trey Young deserved to be there and
he wasn't there unless, yeah, because of injury, right, because
spots were open, So Lebron James missteps there, takes a spot,
could have gave it to somebody else, could have nominated
someone else. That would have been cool. Right, But they're
taking team pictures, which is always I guess an honor. Right,

(23:18):
you're there with all the greats of the year, or
should be an honor. That's the thing. My favorite group
photo every year is all the NFL head coaches. When
does that come out? That is pretty good? That's always
my way. They're taking the All Star team photos and
Lebron James jumps in with some big names. They're All

(23:41):
Stars guys, Kevin Durant, Steph Curry, James Harden, Kyrie's there.
They're all there posing and they're All Star uniforms. And
Lebron James jumps in with street clothes. This is the
team photo. Street close dude, like not like a warm
up out like this is what he was rocking. And

(24:01):
they're like, all right, we're taking the team photo. Now.
I understand he was hurt. I understand he wasn't playing,
but you gonna tell me his ankle hurts so much
that he couldn't throw on a pair of shorts, the
tank top, the shirt and just pose the rest of
the team like a guy who's honored to be on
the All Star team. I thought that was odd, in
my opinion, ruin the photo. I get it, he's Lebron James.

(24:25):
Any photo with Lebron James is a great photo. I'd
be thrilled to have a photo with Lebron James, but
these are his contemporaries, these are other big stars. If
I was Steph Curry, if I was Kevin Durant, be like, yo, man,
put your uniform on.

Speaker 3 (24:38):
What are you doing?

Speaker 2 (24:39):
You're ruining the photo? Ruin the photo? Now? What did
I say? I said, I've been there and I've done that.
I am not guilt free here. I have my own stories,
but we also want to open it up to you
and your thoughts eight seven seven ninety nine one fox.
To me, it just adds to the feeling of how
little do you care about this? Because when you the player,

(24:59):
the super star, the team doesn't care about the product.
How do you expect the fans to care about the product?
How do you expect us to care about the game.
You don't even care enough to put the uniform on
for a photo. And that's just one little side story here,
But that feeling translates to us and that's why we

(25:19):
are left here like that was boring. No, it's the
question here is ruining the topic? Really is ruining the photo? Yeah,
and some people care? How could you not? Some people? Dude,
that's the problem. It's supposed to be an honor. How
you're supposed to care. If you don't, why should I

(25:42):
I have so many examples of I'll give you a
really bad example to start it off. It's still early.
Nobody's listening, right, I mean, it's probably the most listen
to Dan Patrick howerb oh. Then I got to say
this a little. I gotta preface this by saying, you know,
when you're a little kid, you have no perspective, especially
when you're a little eighties kid, A little sexist eighties kid.

(26:03):
That was me, little sexist eighties kid. Does you know
what the story goes? Danny J. Cavino didn't believe the
Go Gos played instruments.

Speaker 3 (26:09):
I didn't.

Speaker 2 (26:10):
I thought that was fake. I believed the Chipmunks were
more real than the Go Goos. Like, there's no way
girls played drums and guitar.

Speaker 3 (26:16):
This guy's terrible, very sexist.

Speaker 2 (26:18):
I was like, I believe Alvin and Simon and Theodore
are real musicians. I don't know about these Go Gos.
You hear this guy, That's how I felt as a kid.
You've come a long way. I've evolved that you don't
when it should show you. Man, what a great guy
in Kavino throned out to me. Yeah, because he was
like the worst eighties kid that ever was.

Speaker 3 (26:35):
Yeah, that's not what we were thinking.

Speaker 4 (26:36):
Bro.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
It was the eighties. Okay, So I evolved a lot.
But when I was an eighties kid, there was like
one girl on your little league team. Right, looking back,
as a girl dad, as a respectful evolved man, I say, man,
good for them, how cool? How cool is that? But
back then, when I was a nose picking, little sexist bratt,
I was like, man, let's go ruins the whole photo,

(26:59):
the whole team, because it made your team look soft. Right,
you displayed that the photo and your friends come over,
like you got a girl on your team, and you're like, yeah,
I guess looking back, I'm like I'm I'm like, wow,
she was ahead of her time. Good for her, that
was great. She was good. She held her own. Back
then when I was a kid, I'm like, look at
her holding the sign, ruining the photo, you little Dutch

(27:20):
boy girl haircut? So I felt not gonna lie ruined
the photo photo. My examples are not as terrible as cominos.
I'm a good man, but I hear what you're saying.
Or how about the kid that had the he was
like a little bit of a husky kid. So he
had to get an oversized jersey or something. He had
to wear like oversized pants, and they didn't match anyone

(27:40):
else's team. Like this kid, this kid right here, husky
I had. He ruined the photo I had. I had
a All right, now you're talking because I had a
I'm talking. I had a team photo for one of
my little leagues. I remember they would put on a
plaque and you put that crap in your room because
you were proud of it, like my little league team. Right,
That's what I'm saying. There was one kid who wore jeans.

(28:03):
What a pathetic team you played for? Two it ward
jeans little league picture day. So here I am. You know,
it's like probably nineteen ninety one, you know, the you know,
Minor League Red Sox, and I'm with all my buddies.
Everyone's got their navy blue red Sox, you know T shirts.
Who was on your team, Kelly Leak of the Bad
News Bears? Did you ride a moped there? You know
we had the navy blue T shirts. My kids teams

(28:25):
now they have like professional unifor jeans on the little
league team. Besides the coach and it's like nineteen seventy slide.
Has everyone else recognized that as parents, my kids, my
sons and t ball. He has a home and road jersey.
They have legitimate uniform. We had ones from the sixties
and we got them like left over you recycled, though
we did. We had mine smelled like cigars. We had

(28:47):
T shirts, Like, let's say I was the Brewers that year.
We had a blue T shirt. They just said Brewers,
like they just printed T shirts, white baseball pants and
T shirts. Yeah. Now my kids on the Rockies, we
have home and away jerseys and we have like the
purple baseball socks and matching belts in their five. But
you know what, you could relate because that kid, for

(29:09):
whatever reason, maybe they made a stupid face or they
showed up in jeans, ruined the phone. And that's what
Lebron James did. This is an onerous The All Star team. Hey,
let me ask you one quick question, rich the guy
that backs into his parking spot thinks he's better than you.
Lebron James is there with his other contemporaries, other superstars,

(29:30):
and he's wearing streak clothes. What is he the coach?
Does he think he's better than me. He's not playing. Problem,
it's Lebron James. That's the point, dude. You gotta play
the humble card because people are gonna say, what is
Lebron James? Do you want him to suit up? So
that the dude is that asking a whole lot. You're
already there. You're taking a team photo? Are you not

(29:52):
on the team? But he's not playing? So what he's
been to like twenty of them? Exactly? You're not caring
about it?

Speaker 3 (30:00):
All right?

Speaker 2 (30:00):
So why should we the fans? Right? If you want
to share some funny stories about ruining the photo, I
have a few. I haven't even again the team photo
as a kid where the one dude in the front
row was wearing jeans and I couldn't as a little kid,
my OCD was like, why is this stupid kid? I
hate that for you. We should track that kid down
beat them. Why is this one kid wearing jeans in

(30:23):
our baseball team photo? I hate it? Looking back, you
were man at the kid, but you have to now
as an adult, evolved adult site it's because his parents
didn't love him. Now now this sounds super douchey. My
wife and I were on our honeymoon. So let me
preface by saying that, because it's not like I'm some
world traveler. But my wife and I have a photo
of us on our honeymoon. We did a little little

(30:44):
the little trip around Europe, only time I ever done.
It was awesome. So for our honeymoon, one of the
stops on our trip was France, one of the most
beautiful sight trail ever. See you get Oh, of course
I got a song, you got all? You know? I
got a wall, Tell me about it, not a croissant,

(31:06):
a wassall. So I'm in France, which the one time
I've been there again my honeymoon with my wife. The
background is picturesque, like you know on celebrities are in there,
like douchey yachts in the French riviera. Yeah. Yeah, behind
me were mountains, the water and all those rich people's boats.
My wife and have a photo. Oh and in the

(31:28):
background it's Odell Beckham Junior and Victor Cruz and they're
wearing timberlands. They're posing on a boat. My wife and
I have this picture of her and I and right
as the person clicked the picture of my wife and
I with the most picturesque background. Some tiny little kid
walks in our frame, but it looks like he's standing

(31:49):
next to us like he's our child. So I have
like the most beautiful picture of my wife and I
and next to us it looks like we adopted like
a little Dominican kid or something.

Speaker 3 (32:02):
Who is this kid in her face?

Speaker 2 (32:04):
That's what he was, like, Danny. Sorry, So that's one.
There's a rule that goes along with this so that
pictures aren't ruined. That's a little kid, a big poppy
photo bomb, so the photobom will ruin the photo bomb.
The photo bomb is interesting because if you're at a
bar taking a photo, Hey, you got together with your
old college buddies. It's funny one time when some dope

(32:28):
at the bars. Good, But if he does it more
than once, then you gotta be like, hey, dude, scram
because I get it. The one time photo bomb is funny.
Like now, Google could fix that easy. But I had
to bring this up because I'm at the park with

(32:49):
my daughter and her friends, and my daughter has like
three of her little little best buddies, their little girl squad.
They're all seven years old, eight years old, and it's
like her little pals and they were all they had
all come from gymnastics, so they were looking all cute
in their little outfit. So I was like, hey, girls, oh,
that Emmy's dad. Here, take a picture. There was some

(33:12):
other girl that's like not in their crew. Was like
me too, how do you tell a little kid get
out of the bo oh? It's like the little kid
that didn't truss up for Halloween. I was like, I
was like, that's cool, all right, now one without her?
What are you gonna do? You can't tell a little
kid get out of the picture. My daughter and her
best friends and some random girl at the park. I'm like, hey,

(33:35):
random at the park, you're gonna set this one out.
You asked that girl to take the picture. That's what
you do, and you jump in andffle and Danny The
other lesson learned here at Cavino rich As we talked
about Lebron. As Cavino said, ruining the All Star photo,
he did, I would love for Danny g because again
he's at Lebron super fan and Lakers fan. I'm not

(33:55):
a Lebron hater, but in my opinion, he did there's
there's wait, you think it.

Speaker 3 (33:59):
Sound like a a Lebron poster about my bed. You don't,
I thought.

Speaker 1 (34:03):
No, I'm a Lakers fan and whoever our lead dog is,
then I'll support that player.

Speaker 2 (34:07):
Do you agree, though, Like that was a yeah big
time in the moment, it's a bad look. Yeah, yeah,
I have to wrap this up. I have a lesson,
and Covino's dad has a solution. Yeah, Cavino's dad, would
you say say it? The lesson is if there's a
new person in the in the crew, your brother's new girlfriend,

(34:32):
or hey, that's you know, uncle Hank's fluozie of the month. Yeah,
Uncle Hank's flouzie of the month. When you take that
Christmas photo, that person's on the end. That way, they
could be cropped out when their time is over.

Speaker 1 (34:47):
They've all heard about this by now, though, so it's ruined.
But they know what you're up to.

Speaker 2 (34:52):
But I like, if you're hanging out with all your
old high school past, you should also have the wherewithal
to know it's their job to take the photo. How
about they pick up a that rule, take the photo
or if you're in it, go on the end, because
you might eventually be cropped out of this bad boy.
It's just the rule, like you gotta know, but I
am in favor of that person being in the photo.

(35:13):
Sometimes I offer up because I don't want to be
in that photo. I'm like, you know what, I'll take it,
you know, because I don't want to be with you. Guys, Danny,
I learned that lesson on an epiod. I'm not seeing
a bright future with this little get together on an
episode of How I Met Your Mother. This is a
great lesson they learned where if the person's permanent, that
could be the first photo. So I'm always cool with

(35:35):
the new person being in the photo. Just put them
on the end. But Kavino's dad has the best solution.
My dad was the inventor. This is true story, guys,
the inventor of photoshop. What he used to do, and
this is true. My grandma, Every grandma had like walls
of photos right high school photos were still framed like

(35:57):
graduation photos, family photos, wedding photos. We don't live that
life the way we did growing up, where there was
a million photo frames all over the wall. By the way,
in a related story today, I saw I think it
was on BuzzFeed gen Z like teenagers and twenty year
olds have a new fascination with printing out like tangible photos.
So they're saying that maybe it's on the time, it's

(36:18):
on the come up. They come back that the idea
of printing out photos is fascinating to a teenager. So
it would always be who's that guy, and it was
like the ex husband or ex boyfriend or x somebody.
There was a lot of like people who were in
these photos that weren't necessarily in the family anymore. So
my dad would cut out celebrity heads of anybody, of

(36:40):
John Davidson, the host of Hollywood Squares, or Tony Danzer,
Henry whoever's famous at the time, pictures from the TV guy, Yes,
Steve Rkley. He'd cut out like mister T's head or something,
and he would put him all over you know, these
people's heads. You'd go over my house or my grandmother's house,
all these like random celebrity heads covering the other heads

(37:03):
on the frame. So Judith Light was at Thanksgiving ninety one. Yeah,
So my dad claims that he's the true inventor of
photoshop because he was the first to do this in
the early eighties. Now, again, how did I do this?
I pulled the Lebron, so I'm not innocent here, and
your thoughts on him ruining the team photo at the
All Star Game, I mean, did he did he not?

(37:23):
We'll talk a little Lebron and all your feedback. Covino
and rich In for Dan Patrick having fun Tuesday morning.
Let's do it. We do it every Wednesday, something called
mid Week Major.

Speaker 6 (37:38):
Covino and rich get you over the middle of the week.
Where a mid week majorjor oh, I love that. We
throw sports and pop culture headlines and topics at the
fellas and it's like the kids.

Speaker 8 (37:51):
Say, that's SOMD week. Definitely major.

Speaker 2 (37:55):
See it our score mid week Major.

Speaker 1 (38:00):
I gotta give myself at least eight full minutes.

Speaker 2 (38:02):
Here.

Speaker 1 (38:03):
You hear the horns, You know you have made it
to the middle of the week. All right, Before we
get started to see who gets first. Take between Covino
and rich we like to roll the big red love dice.

Speaker 2 (38:12):
I just rolled the twelve. Now you roll the ten.
Oh ten? Yeah, five and five, So now I have
to roll like Lee at twelve. Let's say, oh wait ah,
no hard six, that's what she said. You're up first.

Speaker 1 (38:26):
The Covino gets to go first, all right, gentlemen. Last week,
we talked about Patrick Mahomes Senior right here on Midweek Major.
His dust up with John Rocker was a headline during
Super Bowl Week in New Orleans. Well, it was staged.
Mahomes Senior made the admission. According to court documents obtained
by TMZ Sports, officials were questioning him about his trip

(38:47):
because he's been placed on probation from last year's charge
of DWI. When he got into that squabble with Rocker.
He then missed a urine test on February eleventh. Officials
wanted to know more. According to the documents, the officials
are ready to throw the book at him, so, in
an effort to avoid trouble, the Chiefs quarterback's dad fest
up to the fact that the Rocker incident was a

(39:07):
staged altercation to get publicity for a celebrity boxing match
that was set to take place in April twenty twenty five. Covino,
Patrick's dad caught promoting a celebrity match mid Week or Major.

Speaker 2 (39:20):
It's a mid story. It's major for Patrick his son.
Though you know, if I was his son, I'd be
even more embarrassed, because just when you thought that this
could couldn't get any worse. It does because he's now
intentionally embarrassing his son. Right, It's one thing to get
a dui and and get in the way of the

(39:41):
public image of your family and your son's career. You
think his son wants to deal with this? Next question,
really don't want to talk about my brother, my wife
and her politics, and especially my dad. Next question, Hey, Patrick,
what about your dad?

Speaker 6 (39:56):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (39:56):
Next question, Like Patrick Mahomes doesn't want to deal with that.
So for his dad to be doing this stuff is embarrassing,
and then to intentionally do this is even worse. See,
I think say out of your son's way. I think
this story is major because but the action was mid Yeah,
I'm gonna say major because when you get caught staging something, Oh,

(40:20):
the embarrassment is top notch. And the only reason he
fessed up to it being staged was because he was
gonna get in trouble. He would have tried to play
it off like, yo, I mean, Rocker, we're in a
tussle and now we're gonna wrestle at a barstool event. Listen. Yeah,
they're trying to hype up a potential fight for the
fact that his fake ass, hype got caught is embarrassing

(40:41):
at the highest level. But what's again even grosser about
it is the fact that now you're intentionally just trying
to embarrass your son. I know that's not the intent,
but by a default, that's what you're doing.

Speaker 1 (40:53):
All right, next day and all right, Tiger Tiger woulds y'all.
Tiger had one hundred and ninety nine yards to the whole.
His Such You Links teammates realizes something was really wrong.
Tuesday night, in a TGL indoor match, Tiger asked to
confirm the yardage and heard ninety nine because caddies often
dropped the first number when it's obvious, but it was
not obvious to Tiger. He hit a wedge, a good

(41:15):
shot that traveled one hundred yards. He says, I heard
ninety nine, so I went out there and hit it.
There was a problem, obviously, he was one hundred yards off.
One of the most embarrassing moments in my golfing career
just happened. Would set on the telecast, laughing, I just
screwed up. That was embarrassing. His Jupiter Links teammates dropped
to the grass laughing. By the way, New York never
trailed in at ten to three victory fellas Tiger getting

(41:37):
embarrassed on TV Covino mid Week or Major.

Speaker 2 (41:41):
Again mid But the headline is like the most embarrassing
moment he's had on the course. When you've had embarrassing
moments to the extent that he had in life with
all the controversy and his other eighteen holes and everything
else going on. Yeah, I think this pales in comparison.
So this is more of a laugh laugh out loud,

(42:01):
funny sort of moment, like, oh, man, could you believe
that I was way off? So it's not his most
embarrassing moment. Yeah, it's like that one time when we
were playing mini golf and you're like, oh, the windmill. No, oh,
it's supposed to go through the cloud's mouth. Listen. I
think it's funny that Tiger had essentially a brain fart,
it seems on the golf course. But Mark, I'll back
up Comino, when you've had embarrassing moments in real life

(42:25):
with women and mistresses and your life fell apart at
one point, Yeah, this is laughing. Yeah, this is like insignificant.
But yet what I did notice still rich too, is like,
you know, he recently lost his mom. The fact that
he was out there smiling, having fun and still compete
and it's true. It's like, yeah, life goes on and
props to him.

Speaker 3 (42:41):
I'm rooting for him all right.

Speaker 1 (42:43):
Up next here, what do you guys think of when
I say Brazil booties?

Speaker 3 (42:47):
I knew you. I knew you were going to say that.

Speaker 2 (42:49):
Yeah, hold on, soccer, get there that predictable.

Speaker 1 (42:54):
The NFL is filling out its list of international games
for the twenty twenty five season. It was just announced
the La Chargers are set to host a game in
Brazil in Week one. O we gotta go, yeah, just
stop it. There was an official announcement from the NFL
just this morning. The Chargers will be the designated home
team at Corinthians Arena on a Friday night during the
first week of.

Speaker 3 (43:14):
The regular season.

Speaker 1 (43:15):
Today's announcement about the Chargers in Brazil brings the number
of confirmed home teams for international games to seven. The Jags,
the Browns, and the Jets will all play in London. Guys,
Jim Harbaugh and the Chargers headlining in Brazil. Covino midweek
or major major.

Speaker 2 (43:29):
Dude, major in every way, because we're seeing the growth
of the NFL. Let's focus on this first and first
mostly international sport. You're seeing how excited they get overseas
in Mexico. Rich and I went to a Mexico City
game a few years back, like five years ago. We
were amazed to see the level of genuine excitement for

(43:50):
American football, Like wow, So now it's in Brazil hyping
it up there. That's major in itself. Right then, if
you're a guy like me, he always fantasized that the
booty cheeks in Brazil, this might be your chance to
get your buddies to go out there and go fulfill
that fantasy football. But cheeks, let's go. This is America.

(44:11):
Actually it's Brazil. But I love it, and Rich America.
It's the American dream. I think it's great. And for
those that say, well, the travel and for the players.
Last year the Eagle started the season playing internationally, they
won the Super Bowl. The Chiefs played three games within
a ten to eleven day period. They went to the

(44:31):
Super Bowl. So I think the narrative that it's unfair
to these players, Listen, all teams deal with travel, All
teams deal with this going to a foreign country and
expanding your brand for a game you get paid millions
to do, and the world is falling more in love
with I think it's awesome. I love the Internet and
international expansion. Eventually, I think it would be cool not

(44:53):
to have a franchise international, but I think it would
be cool if every season, every team had one Internet
national game. What a cool road trip for you and
your buzz. Right, Let's say could get that Brazilian BUTTL
if you've been on Danny, imagine if the schedule goes
to eighteen games eventually, and there's two bye weeks, two
bye weeks, eighteen games, but one of your eighteen games

(45:16):
is international. That would be awesome and you can get
Hey and you can get your BBL BBL DK All right, guys.

Speaker 1 (45:24):
Finally something that only could rival Rich's weak psyche white Sneakers.
An Oklahoma man's family surprised him with a Guinness World
Record for his collection of eighty two different bricks. Clem Renkenheimer,
eighty seven, was out of town when his daughter and
son in law gathered a group of their friends to
count and document each item in his Tulsa brick barn.

(45:47):
The eighty seven year old returned home and was surprised
with an official certificate from the four the world's largest
collection of bricks. I got back in town and it
was a big surprise. I'm very happy to hear about
the Guinness World Record. Collector has taken forty years. It
includes a Roman brick from a D one hundred, but
most date to date, he's got one from Tulsa, I

(46:09):
guess from his hometown. With a backward s he says
he's most proud of guys, a man with more bricks
than Shaquille O'Neill, cove Youno Midweek or Major.

Speaker 2 (46:19):
How many bricks does he have?

Speaker 3 (46:21):
Almost nine thousand?

Speaker 2 (46:22):
Yeah, I had like ten thousand bricks, So yeah, not
that impressive. Actually kind of weak. So yeah, that's exactly
what I was thinking. Didn't Shack have more bricks than that?
This is the weakest story ever, dude, of all time.
You know, I tell you what. Some people callect shotglasses, matchbooks,
magnets when they go on vacation, maybe Christmas ornaments, picture frames,

(46:43):
bricks though the one like the one from one to
A the Roman times. Like, listen, there's some cool relics
that if you had as a centerpiece and like you're
dad with a cubhouse. But I mean bricks. I mean
he literally has a brack house. I mean, this guy,
it's a lameous collection. I agree with you. And it's heavy,
it's hard to move around. You think his wife at
any points, like honey, ever think about something else? I

(47:06):
don't know. Man, kind of a weak story.

Speaker 3 (47:08):
Now what's the lamest thing you too? Collect?

Speaker 2 (47:10):
Uh? That's a good one. Oh, you know what I
do collect. I don't think it's lame, though I don't.
I don't collect many things. I have a baseball card
collection I still have, right, but I collect from all
the events that we do and and fights that we
go to and games and you know, the like ards

(47:31):
lanyards like you around your neck, like the straight you
knowinents of the events that we go to collect you
go to Kovino's house, he'll he has and he puts
him on like hangars in the closet. You have what thousands?

Speaker 4 (47:42):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (47:42):
I have a lot.

Speaker 1 (47:43):
Yeah, and you guys are going to get another one
from Philadelphia tomorrow.

Speaker 2 (47:47):
Yeah, Well advertising it man Burglars are listening. Thank you,

Camino and rich In for our bro Colley Cowherd right

(48:08):
here on the Hurt. And he makes a great point too,
you can't solve ignorant, so we lean into it. The
worldwide thinks of nonsense. Colin's big point about Aaron Rodgers
making sense in LA. I'm gonna back them up on that,
and I'll tell you why. But first, let me remind
you that we're gonna be playing a game where we

(48:29):

our newest games. Every day we play a game right

steel water bottles. They're really nice. No cheap bows, no

(48:50):
weakness giveaways. We actually got quality giveaways for you. So
if you want to play again, quote me, it's multiple choice,
it's easy, and hopefully you'll win eight seventy seven to
nine eight seven seven four of the Herd. Ah yes,
eight seven seven four the Herd Collins number, and it
has to do with all the you know, all the
crazy takes in the world of sports. Who said it.

(49:10):

we always do. Again, Cavino and Rich. Danny G just
whispered in my ear, say it numerically, eight seven seven four.

(49:31):
You think I know what the Herd numbers are, Danny G.
You just like you ever see that meme of the
guy who's looking up at it just a bunch of calculations.

Speaker 1 (49:40):
Oh well, it's the first thing listed there. Eight seven
seven four eight four thirty four thirty seven. One more
time eight seven seven four eight four thirty four thirty seven.

Speaker 2 (49:52):
Dandy, that was that was a pop quiz. I was
gonna fail on meet for sure. If you want to play,
that's the number, Thank you, and you can win a.

Speaker 3 (49:58):
Prize the equivalent to you being a huge hockey fan.

Speaker 2 (50:01):
Dude, huge, Now yeah, one night, I'm all in. So
what Colin said in that promo, and you know we've
touched on Aaron Rodgers, do the Rams make a lot
of sense based on if they move on from Matthew Stafford.
You know they're moving on from a Cooper Cup, but
they still have pook and the Kupa, Karen Williams they got,
they got. They're looking for a one year guy, two

(50:22):
year guy, then it makes absolute sense. There's other guys
looking for home. DeVante Adams, who knows where demo ends up.
So it's not like the Rams are calling her today.
They were one play away, as Matthew Stafford's wife pointed out, yeah,
they were one play away from Cup, like you said,
But Pooka's a that's his chance to pick up some
great leadership and really step up as a player. But

(50:44):
I wanted to give another layer to it when we
talked about what Aaron Rodgers was looking for and he
said a to be wanted, which, as we pointed out,
it's a no brainer. But in a relationship at a
job anywhere you don't want to feel like someone's doing
you at charity work. You want to genuinely feel like
the woman you're with desires you the job you're at,

(51:04):
values your work. You know your family members appreciate what
you give back to the family like, no one wants
to be taken for granted. So I like that. I
like how he wants to be surrounded by winners, because
who wants to be who wants to end their career
with a bunch of But the third point was an
interesting one, and I wouldn't mind the warm weather this

(51:25):
this hit. That's like the fat ass. I want somebody
with a fat ass. You know, if you could throw
in a you know, a nice booty, I'm down with
that too. That's the nice booty. However, the last couple
of days we were in Philadelphia doing that event with
the Eagles and Dallas Goddard. And now we're in New
Jersey and I'm looking out Covino's family's houses window. Right
now there's like snow on the ground. And Aaron Rodgers

(51:48):
and I were around the same age you hit forty.
I don't care what you say. I get when people
say I like the seasons. Of course, you like a
little fall, changing of the leaves. You're like, oh spring, oh,
baseballs here. Well, make it clear we live in LA.
Now you're here visiting. I barely miss my family, let
alone the seasons. I miss pizza more than I miss

(52:09):
the season. Well, listen, I always tell people when you know,
because it's a common question. Ranch you live in LA,
you're from New York, what do you miss?

Speaker 3 (52:15):
Dude?

Speaker 2 (52:15):
And I say, listen, I'll be honest. I missed my
family and food. New York has better food, and I
missed the vibe of the people. East Coast people. I
like their honesty, I like their how they act. You
and Rodgers maybe around the same age, but you're not
in the same income bracket. No, that's true. So whatever
hassles and hops he has to deal with when it
comes to cold weather and snow, you think he's out

(52:36):
there shoveling it. No, No, I'm not saying that. I'm
just saying in general, when I stepped off that plane
in Philadelphia, yeah, oh you felt it in your bones,
I was like damn. I was like, why is it
gonna be so cold? Like, no, it really does suck.
And it made me realize, Like I'm not saying I'm
a senior citizen in New York that retires to Hey,
I'm gonna move to Florida to retire and die, which

(52:57):
is what all New Yorkers do. Oh, you go to Florida,
oh high for twenty years and then die. That's what
most East Coasters do. That should be there state slogan
Florida where New Yorkers go to die. I thought it
was I'm not saying I'm a sixty seven year old guy,
but even when you hit like forty, I've noticed that
when I go back to the East Coast, call me soft,

(53:17):
call me a wimp, but I got to your face
because behind your back, I do it all the time.
It's to my face. Okay, I got no time for
cold weather. It really does stink. So I could understand
where a veteran athlete would say, you know, playing in
a nice place when it hurt either, because when I'm
driving my kids to school in the morning and it's
seventy degrees in southern California, you get to view of

(53:39):
the mountains and I don't I put on a hoodie,
palm trees, yo, I had to put a I when
you have to scrape your windows and start your car,
before you bring your kids to school and you're scraping
your wind. She'd like, god damndly to me. I could
understand that last element for Aaron Rodgers makes total sense. Absolutely.
I think Colin hit it on the head. I totally

(54:00):
agree with him. Last time we talked about this, the
rams didn't seem to be an option, or they weren't
definitely an option. I think that's the solid move for him,
especially if they need a one year guy. All right,
so again, Covino and Rich, do you agree disagree? Give
us a call eight seven, seven to four the herd,
But we are looking for people to play our game.

(54:21):
Quote me, easy, multiple choice, easy, breezy again. If you
want to play, let us know. I'm ready to play.
Let's do it. Sports media and athletes are quoted a
lot for me. Stars tracked the shocks. Here comes the
hot take quote Andy Wei should step down his head code.
This is not a one game we asked him because

(54:41):
they lost in this game.

Speaker 6 (54:43):
You guess the talking head.

Speaker 2 (54:44):
You can quote me on that.

Speaker 3 (54:46):
Quote me, all right, here we go.

Speaker 1 (54:50):
What up Danny g in this game? You need to
tell me who in the sports world said it. Let's
meet our contestants in New Jersey sharing a twin size
mattress with his radio park there Steve Covino Yeah, literally
literally to his left with BedHead from earlier today, Rich Davis.

Speaker 2 (55:08):
Well, it's up, daddy. And for the record, you know,
for people, Kavino and I are not together, though there
is speculation of this. No, we're the Burton Ernie of radio. Yeah,
we sleep in the same room. I'm married with two children. Everybody,
at least we want you to believe, all.

Speaker 1 (55:23):
Right, and looking to win a seeing our stainless steel
Swiggy on the studio lines. Let's go to Shorewood, Illinois.

Speaker 2 (55:29):
Denise, Hey, Denise, Hello, how are you guys? We're good.
You ready to play?

Speaker 4 (55:35):
I'm ready to play. I love listening to your show.

Speaker 3 (55:38):
Thanks you much.

Speaker 1 (55:38):
All right, here are the rules for quote me. The
first contestant with two correct answers is the champ. If
there's a tie, I have two overtime quotes. Ready to go.
Your name is your buzzer, but you do have to
wait until all three possible answers are read. If there's
two wrong answers in a row, we move on to
the next quote. Are you ready?

Speaker 2 (55:54):
Yeah, let's go.

Speaker 1 (55:55):
All right, guys, here's the first quote as far as
Soto saying he has a better chance to win with
the Mets.

Speaker 3 (56:02):
You know, that's his opinion. He could say what he wants.

Speaker 1 (56:05):
I definitely disagree with him, but I wasn't too surprised
by it. You know, he got a good deal. He's
gonna be in a great spot. It's gonna be great
having him in town. We're gonna be battling back and
forth for quite a few years. Quote me, who me
a hal Steinbrenner, b Aaron Judge or C Garrett, cole, Covino,

(56:25):
Coveno in there first?

Speaker 2 (56:27):
Quick? I'm a Yankees guy. That's Aaron Judge. Yes, that
is Aaron Judge who who is already rocking a mirror. Yeah,
he's currently growing stubble as we speak.

Speaker 9 (56:36):
Yeah, and let's hear how that sounded. You know, that's
his opinion. He can he can say what he wants.
I definitely disagree with him, but I wasn't I wasn't
too surprised by it. You know, he got a good deal.
He's he's gonna be in a great spot. It's gonna
be great having him in town. We're gonna be battling
back and forth for question, all right, Covino on the.

Speaker 2 (56:54):
Board, sounds like sour grapes, therey the beginning of that
one more time.

Speaker 3 (57:00):
He's like, yeah, that's what you think, opinion. He can
he can say what he wants.

Speaker 9 (57:04):
I definitely disagree with him, but I wasn't I wasn't
too surprised by it. I got a good deal. He's
he's gonna be in a great spot. It's gonna be
great having him in town. We're gonna be battling back
and forth.

Speaker 1 (57:14):
First, all right, Steven Covino on the board first, as
we go to a round two, and this quote is
on the NBA being boring with no personality. Do you
know why we like Anthony ant Man so much because
it's the first time we get a pulse of somebody
having a freaking personality? Quote me, quote me, is it

(57:38):
a Kelvin Washington, B LeVar Errington or C. Chris Brussard,
Denise Denise.

Speaker 3 (57:47):
I'm gonna say, b yes, LaVar Arrington.

Speaker 1 (57:53):
Denise jumps on the board and here's what that sounded like.

Speaker 2 (57:57):
You know why we like Anthony ant Man so much
because it's the first time we get a pulse of
somebody having a freaking personality. Damn, I have another LeVar quote.
Are you ready?

Speaker 3 (58:11):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (58:11):
I like to sit in hotel lobbies and pick my feet. Yeah.
Did he say that with shoes on or shoes off?
I love shoes off.

Speaker 7 (58:19):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (58:19):
We were at the Super Bowl, Denisee and LeVar who
I love two pros and a cup of Joe. Every
time I went in the lobby. That guy was laughing
with people, had a cocktail, and he had those shoes on.
No shoes. I think maybe he lost a lot of
super Bowl.

Speaker 3 (58:32):
Yeah, that's a look.

Speaker 1 (58:33):
All right, so far Covino and Denise both on the
board as we go to round three. This quote is
about Luca's performance Wednesday night. Okay, he's really sad. He
I think, for the first time in his entire basketball life,
had his confidence shaken by being traded and by what
they said about him. And I think he is deeply
in his own head. Quote me, who me? Is that

(58:56):
a Nick Wright? B? Brian Windhorst or c Rob Parker? Ooh,
Rich Rich?

Speaker 2 (59:07):
I think it was? Who was? Again?

Speaker 3 (59:09):
Nick right?

Speaker 2 (59:09):
It was Nick? I think it was Nick right?

Speaker 3 (59:11):
It loves Nick?

Speaker 2 (59:11):
Yeah, okay, yeah, he's such a lucky guy. No, no, no, no,
I saw that on Instagram. I think that clip so
that's so. I was like, wait, who did I see?

Speaker 3 (59:20):
All right?

Speaker 2 (59:20):
It was a a vampire nick write it was a
Nick Red.

Speaker 3 (59:22):
Okay, let's hear how that sounded.

Speaker 2 (59:24):
He's really sad. He is.

Speaker 10 (59:26):
I think for the first time in his entire basketball life,
had his confidence shaken by being traded and then by
what they said about him. And I think he is
deeply in his own head.

Speaker 1 (59:40):
All right, So three way tie here a heated game
between Covino, Denise and Rick.

Speaker 2 (59:45):
Do you want to comment on that quote?

Speaker 5 (59:46):
Ye?

Speaker 3 (59:46):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (59:48):
When you are built of the competitive nature that Luca
is built from, and you've been playing competing against professionals
when he was fifteen sixteen years old, ye, this kid
was still now to the to the wolves when he
was a little boy. Yeah, may have stung him a
little bit, But if you don't think that motivates him,
you're out of your mind. Yeah. I think it's more motivational.

(01:00:09):
I think Danny is. He's not sitting here like, whoa,
My feelings are hurt Danny's yo, I'm gonna show them
because I'm a competitor. I promise you once playoff time comes, Danny,
you you're a lucky Lakers fan, because I think you're
gonna see a passionate Luca and Lebron realizing he has
very few, you know, chances left. I think the Lakers
are going to be fire playoff time. I mean, especially
like these foreign players, you think they're bothered by that

(01:00:32):
it upset them a little bit. I'm sure, what do
you care? You're gonna be watching hockey?

Speaker 1 (01:00:36):
Yeah, you know what, that's a great point. Yeah, a
bit of an overreaction. I think what Luca's more frustrated
about is that nagging injury. Yeah, all right, so we'll
go to a tiebreaker here, hopefully around four. And I'm
gonna read the quote here. This is this is uh,
it's self explanatory.

Speaker 3 (01:00:52):
Here we go.

Speaker 1 (01:00:52):
It's about Aaron Rodgers though, how far has your career
fallen that you are begging the Jets to stay? Not
the Cowboys, not the Steelers, not the forty nine Ers,
not the Chiefs, not the Eagles. You're begging the Jets
to stay. And they said no, quote me, hoot me?
Was that a Jonas Knox, B Jason Smith or C.

(01:01:14):
Doug Gottlieb, Henny, Denise for the win.

Speaker 4 (01:01:18):
I let's said Doug Gottlieb.

Speaker 3 (01:01:20):
No, oh Rich Rich for the steal and the wind.

Speaker 2 (01:01:24):
I it was Jonas No both losers, damn it.

Speaker 3 (01:01:31):
It's all right. That means it's still a tie as
we go to overtime.

Speaker 2 (01:01:35):
All right, man, this is as exciting as the hockey game.

Speaker 3 (01:01:40):
All right, here we go.

Speaker 1 (01:01:42):
It's very hard to write their their O bit as
an obituary. It's very hard to write their O bit,
very hard. The Chiefs were in good health, and then
their ticker went quote me Hooty was at a shady
McCoy b Colin Cowherd or see joy Denise for the win.

Speaker 4 (01:02:03):
I have to jump in. I hope it was callin.

Speaker 1 (01:02:07):

coming up, we still have weekend hobnobbin. What to watch
in the world of sports and entertainment over this nice weekend?

we had with Covino's mom. Again, you know, we're in
New Jersey, so it's the nice thing. We had dinner

(01:03:17):
with Kavino's family last night. And I want you to
think about this. What athletes does your mom like? Who
does she have the hots for? Is that where you're
getting Yeah, Like, it's really funny. The reason why your
mom likes him? Why the hell is your mom like him?
It's really funny. Covino's mom was like, oh, I like him,
I like The names she threw out were hilarious. So

(01:03:39):
if you have a funny story, because I'll set it
up because my story might be even more ridiculous. My
brother Jimmy, yeah, my brother James the story. Why is
his name James? You will be shocked. In fact, I'm
gonna make you wait, all right, Why is my brother
who's he named?

Speaker 8 (01:03:58):
That?

Speaker 2 (01:03:58):
Named James? Nocas my dad jumped off the top of
the bed, mean in the South. No, my mom had
a crush on an athlete in the eighties. Hence my
brother's name is Jim
