We love you, brother, It's still the month of love everybody.
We got two more days to rock this February to
rock the stats, follow our videos, all of our clips,

(01:27):
Fox Sports Radios, YouTube page and everything at Covino and
Rich on social media. Let me hit you up. It's
Black History Month. Yeah, who's your favorite black athlete when
you were a kid? Dave Winfield, Danny J Super Stud,
Bo Jackson. I was Sam probably former Iowa linebacker, Abdul Hodge,

(01:48):
Dan Bayer.

Speaker 3 (01:49):
Jim Jackson, Criment, Ohio State and NBA star.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
I think you know what though, there was only a
few rich before we get your answer the big reveal here,
only a few like that were universally appreciated. Like, regardless
of where you grew up, you could still rock that
poster and it would be for me. Three names, Mike Tyson,
Ken Griffy Jr. Ah Man, maybe Bo Jackson too.

Speaker 4 (02:16):
Yeah, that famous bow poster.

Speaker 1 (02:18):
He and Michael Jordan's. It was four Magic Johnson Because
no matter where you were, you still love those guys.
You had their poster. You wore their T shirts. Here,
I am asking you guys, and I can't decide between
my two favorite black athletes in the eighties. Will decide
for you, okay, because as a kid from New York

(02:39):
and a Mets fan, every kid imitated the Darryl Strawberry
batting stance. But I wore number sixteen and tried to
do the high leg kick like I was Dwight Gooden.
So I don't know Darryl bro Darryl Yeah, for real,
greatest swing in baseball history almost maybe arguably Yeah, and

(03:00):
day is there, chend But again he was just ah.
He was so great, He's so full of potential. I
love dwy Goodin too, But is there anyone in that
conversation with Griffy Junior and Darryl? Is there a third
where you liked the sweetest swing ever? Because I think
of those two immediately, Ken, Griffy Junior and Daryl.

Speaker 4 (03:18):
We always used to do the Carney Lanceford because of
the way he would shake his bat.

Speaker 1 (03:21):
That was awkward. It was cool though, like, yeah, he
used to practice with the shakeweight. That guy, that's the
shakeweight batting stance and Carney lance Is there a third?
As far as sweet, like beautiful, sweet swing like beautiful.
So it doesn't need to be a black guy. I'm
just asking in general.

Speaker 4 (03:36):
Oh, man, Mark maguire had a sweet swing.

Speaker 1 (03:39):
It was a little it was compact. I'm saying when
Darryl he had a nice one handed follow yeah, yeah, Darryl,
I'm saying he had that the leg kick and when
he just extended those arms.

Speaker 5 (03:50):
Oh.

Speaker 4 (03:51):
Eric Davis had a cool batting stance and I'm.

Speaker 1 (03:53):
Black histream month. I brought him up on our Patreon
show today, our podcast. I was like, he was one
of my favorite athletes growing up. Eric Davis had one
of the best scuffles of all time, him and Ray
Knight at third base. Do you remember he bumped into
Ray Knight on the Mets during like a double steal
and then Ray Knight started fighting like he was the
fighting irishman. I think Eric Davis has like a very

(04:15):
odd stat like he could have been one of the
greats of all time right injuries got the best of them,
but he still put up great numbers. I love that
dude well, and he was great in RBI Baseball way
back on Wednesday. But he has like some weird stat
where if you combined two seasons together, he has the greatest,
like one hundred game span of anybody in baseball history

(04:36):
or something ridiculous like that, because his numbers were so
good from one season to the next. Well, if we're
gonna shout out some of the coolest black dudes and
sports in the eighties and nineties, well I said, I
did say Dave Winfield rich because I think it's understated
and underrated that he was drafted in three major sports,
won a World Series later in his career, had a long,

(04:57):
stellar career, and he was always a very classy, gentleman
like superstar in the MLB spot. Can you post on
our Instagram story the actual Dave Winfield classy poster? It's
the best. He was a poster of him in a
suit if I remember correct, and it said class class.
It was like him and James Lennon Jr. Class. I
was gonna say, if we're gonna give shout outs on

(05:19):
Black History Month, let me give you one more, because
he might have been the most intimidating guy on the
pitcher's mound. Danny g Up in the Bay Area in
the eighties and nineties. Dave Stewart, Yeah, with a hat
brim down load. But he talked like this, He talked
like Joe Michael Jackson.

Speaker 4 (05:35):
The joke was always he and Ricky Henderson should have,
you know, first voices.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
I think I say Bob Gibson at first because intimidation factor.

Speaker 4 (05:43):
That's old school.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
But you know what's speaking of what shout out to
our buddy Rob Parker MLB bro. I know, uh, always
trying to encourage young black kids to play baseball. The
number is unfortunately, as we saw over the years, they
go down and down because the path in the NBA,
in the NFL may seem more appealing to Kyler Murray theater.
We saw it recently, but we grew up with a
lot of legends from Rock Rains to Willie Randolph bro

(06:08):
As a New York kid loved him. That Happy Black
History Month and yeah again mlbbro dot com Rob Parker
doing his thing baseball? Did that even confuse you guys
on the West Coast Danny g and Iowa, Sam and
Bayer When Rick when Tim Rains his baseball card said

(06:28):
rock Rains, anyone else like? What was that? Just the
different guys is an error card which was ninety one. Yes,
Rich Study had a twin like Ozzie k Brother.

Speaker 3 (06:42):
Like an error could this be an error?

Speaker 1 (06:44):
Card doing here? Rock rains, So shout out again Black
History Month. Not only is it Black History Month, Rich,
Today is a very special day, you said, it's an
anniversary of what some consider I definitely consider the greatest
sports quote of all time, and there's a lot of
them today today I consider myself so the luckiest man

(07:07):
man on the face of the earth. Not only the quote,
could you know, I think one of the best celebrations.
It's up there with jesse E Rosco thrown his glove
in the air. It's up there. It's up there with
Joe Carter with It's up there with Kirk Gibson. It's
up there with John Madden being carried off the field.
It's up there with Joe Namas. Not only yeah, not
only great quote, Clarks. Yes, the catch and that anniversary

(07:30):
is when Pete Webber one in twenty twelve, thirteen years
ago today. That's right, I did it.

Speaker 4 (07:46):
We just happened to play this on the show yesterday.

Speaker 1 (07:49):
You know why, because we love this as always, not
just on the anniversary.

Speaker 4 (07:52):
Yeah, you said, Mohammad Ali, and I said, yeah, that.

Speaker 1 (07:55):
Guy it's one of the great It's right up there
with I float like a butterfly, thing like a baby.
It's right up there with some of the greatest sports
quotes of all time. I'm not being facetious. I really
mean that. I know it sounds silly because it's Pete Weber,
and look, but he comes from a lineage of great bowlers.
His dad was a legend, Dick Weber. We saw him

(08:15):
growing up. Pete Webber, his son was a stellar Hall
of Fame bowler, and he had an amazing moment. And
I swear to you, Rich it might be a false memory,
but I feel like I watched that live when it happens.
I really do. Could you know? And I unlocked a
memory earlier today. We always talked about Saturday mornings as
a kid were cartoons and then say by the Bell Wrestling,

(08:38):
American Gladiators. We all watch the same stuff growing up,
and for some reason, if you were stuck at Grandma's house,
I remember watching bowling on TV. Bowling was on every weekend.
It was Man the Legends, Parker Bone, the Third Norm Duke.
You know my theory? Could you know, if you're a
grown man or woman, I'll give women a little more
leeway because I'm a nice fella. But if you're a

(09:00):
grown man and we're going bowling, if you don't break
a hundred, you should have to walk home. That is
a rule here on Fox Sports Radio. In fact, if
you're a grown man listening and you can't break a hundred,
I'm not sure I want you listening. I'll do without you.
I mean, I don't know if all right. All right,
to be fair, you could listen, but I don't know

(09:20):
if I want to be your friend. One hundred means
you just need really one to two March is a
four year old son could bowl one hundred?

Speaker 3 (09:27):
Okay?

Speaker 6 (09:29):
Do you a lot of people go a long time
between bowling. Do you get like a game or two
to warm up?

Speaker 1 (09:33):
I was saying, I went bowling for the first time
in like a decade, and I bowled the one sixty something,
Like you have the ability to just am I believe
in you.

Speaker 6 (09:41):
I think I went bowling with Ryan Berschinger, who's in
the back, on his birthday over the summer, and I
think my first game was like an eighty and then
I just excelled from there.

Speaker 4 (09:48):
It was like exponential.

Speaker 6 (09:50):
Well that you redeemed yourself because like I hadn't bowled
in a long time since, I think moving from Iowa
out here almost like ye.

Speaker 1 (09:56):
Sometimes you're just hob knobb and eating French fries, not
really caring. But as long as you phoned in to
take it very seriously, and I would, don't they just
stand up? Ten corn corn? Right?

Speaker 6 (10:07):
Yeah, we're we're actually throwing a bowling ball and there's
a bunch of pigs at the other end.

Speaker 4 (10:10):
They all fall over, the little.

Speaker 1 (10:12):
Kid sets up depends where. Yeah, so today really is
the anniversary of Pete Weber and his quote. But what's
even funnier, it's one of our favorites. We have referenced
it a lot here on this show. I just think
it's so funny because he didn't mean to say it.
That's a sports version of that's one small step. What

(10:34):
is it's fun one giant one small step for man,
one giant leap takes we take steps, one hand, one bird.
That's not what he meant to say, and that's not
what Pete Weber meant to say either. He meant to

(10:55):
say something like one small step for a man, giant
leap for all of men and Paul love mankind iconic
the way he said exactly, and that's exactly what happened
in the Pete Weber story. That's not what he meant
to say to title together. Did you guys ever watch
that Steve Carell show Space Force on Netflix?

Speaker 4 (11:12):
Heard about it?

Speaker 1 (11:13):
The girl was the first woman on the moon and
she was African American and she had this whole speech
ready to go, and she in a moment of pressure,
she freaked down and she goes, It's great to be
black on the moon, and you know what, she was right.
So that's a dumb show that did not get reduted.
I don't think did you say the official quote? What

(11:34):
is the official The official quote that he wanted to
say was who do you think you were rooting against me?
I am the man in this tournament. Yeah, take a
listen to Pete Webber who was on barstool giving the explanation.

Speaker 5 (11:46):
Well, actually it just was kind of a missay because
I was sitting there and I was I was thinking
what I was going to say to the kid that
was giving me trouble during the match, and it was
like I wanted to say, who do you think you
are with me?

Speaker 3 (12:01):
In my house.

Speaker 5 (12:02):
Yeah, you know, and it just came out.

Speaker 1 (12:04):
Who do you think you are?

Speaker 3 (12:05):
I am?

Speaker 2 (12:06):
And that's the best part of the story that I
think a lot of people don't know that was directed
to a twelve year old kid.

Speaker 1 (12:12):
Oh yeah, twelve, sixteen fourteen.

Speaker 5 (12:14):
You know, I'm not all sure.

Speaker 3 (12:16):
That makes it even better.

Speaker 1 (12:17):
Like, so, what was the kid was like heckling you
during the game?

Speaker 5 (12:21):
Well, he rooted out loud a couple of times against
me the second frame when I left the tent, and
he just loud enough. Yes, you know that when I
left the tent. Pin And you know, I don't care
if you root, but don't root loud enough for me
to hear. Yeah, you know, because that's just takes away
from everything. But it pisses me off. So you know,

(12:43):
when I get mad, I let people know about it.
And I've never held back.

Speaker 1 (12:48):
You check Gus. After hearing the explanation, I'm going to
put his fire and level of competition right up there
with Michael Jordan. Yeah, you know, like I feel like
he's right up there as far as passion levels go.
Oh and he took that personally, Yeah, I mean clearly
he took that personally. No one loves spite more than me,

(13:08):
and the fact that it was against a child child,
so he was that fired up because head kids. So
that's hilarious.

Speaker 3 (13:18):
I also loved you could share, but not loud enough
so we can hear you. What's the point?

Speaker 1 (13:23):
Then, by the way, props to uh, you know, Big
Cat at barstool for finally get to the bottom of that,
because I'm surprised no one asked him. We would have
bumped into him. That would have been the first thing
I asked. I'm not trying to take anyway from Big Cat,
but I've heard that explanation before. It's a legendary story,
Pete Weber, legend on this day, and we still quote it.

(13:44):
I mean, honestly, is there another one that's up there?
Like you know, it's a really popular quote that we
throw out there a lot that doesn't get a lot
of credit, but it still lives in mean for him.
When Barscott said can't wait, yeah, that's a that's a
pretty popular one on social media, it was how it
was how and when he said it, yeah, it's really
just two words, and his head was stamen.

Speaker 4 (14:03):
There's also a great story about the two thousand and
eight NBA finals because Kevin Garnett famously screaming anything is possible.
Supposedly with Adidas, it was supposed to be impossible as nothing,
And just in the moment he let that rip. Yeah,
so that was a wrong quote.

Speaker 1 (14:20):
Wrong quote, but it all worked out. Remember when Kirk
Cousins was all fired up?

Speaker 3 (14:28):
You like that?

Speaker 1 (14:29):
You like that. There's always gonna be these quotes that
in the moment, but some are great, and I really
think that one's a great one because your loses its
as the kiddy say, my daughter has an expression. This
little kid was in his walls, like he was in
his head. He was so he was so mad that
he flipped, Yes, right, I did it. Like that passion

(14:51):
level is absurd, It's absurd.

Speaker 3 (14:54):
It's also the exact opposite of Travolta, because Travolta's was
building up to it. In these are spur of the moment,
like you have to hit the spot, which Ravolta is.
Adel Dezine just kept on being dragged out because he
knew what the end was going to be, but he
knew that he didn't have it. These are spontaneously talented,

(15:16):
wickedly talent, as he's saying, as he's saying, wickedly talented.

Speaker 1 (15:20):
You could tell that he's like, the gears are turning.
I don't know what this guy a Dina Menzel, but
hell does he Let's give it up quit wickedly talented.
That's the weakestness quote.

Speaker 6 (15:33):
Well, there's Adele who is still you know, coming in
the music scene ran Byron.

Speaker 1 (15:37):
That's up there in a coveno in its top ten
favorite quote of all time as well. When you grew
up in the eighties, especially John Travolta was the epitome
of cool. Right if you watched Greece or any of
his movies, that dude was cool as hell. To see
him quiver with that lack of confidence in that moment
because he forgot this woman's name. To me, it's hilarious.

(16:00):
Hold on, by the way, if you don't know he
he wanted to introduce the wickedly talented from the play
wicked a Dina Monzel, but he I don't know if
the prompter went out or what Dina Monzel? Did he
not rehearse? Did he not look at it once before?

Speaker 6 (16:19):
It was so like it was so such a graceful
sounding to a graceful quiver in his voice spot.

Speaker 1 (16:27):
We've talked about that so much. Isn't there a second
Travolta flub? I feel like I'm yes, yeah he said no, no, no,
he just said when he introduced Lemes, like.

Speaker 6 (16:40):
Fred arm.

Speaker 4 (16:43):
There's there's another sports drop we play Roger Goodell. It's
not like this organ duck was a Heisman Trophy winner
or anything.

Speaker 1 (16:51):
Marcus Marioto, So.

Speaker 3 (16:57):
He combined mister Roboto with my all. That's exactly what
he did.

Speaker 1 (17:03):
Kennedy, Ted Kennedy, call Sammy Sosa, Sammy Seusser and like
Mike McGuire both wrong if I'm not mistaken, Mike McGuire
and Sammy Seusser. Sammy Sosa, by the way, who's back
in the Chicago dugout? So spring training? Alive and well?
But long live Pete Weber and his legendary quote. I mean,

(17:26):
that's a T shirt that I gotta get. Who do
you think you are? I am? And I feel that
way so many times to have a day. Yeah, no,
I'm gonna buy that. You know, to buy that shirt,
don't you you know? Where do we go? Well?

Speaker 6 (17:37):
I don't want to make a free plug for the guy,
but that super seventy Sports guy, he's got a shirt
of that.

Speaker 1 (17:41):
Oh, I gotta get it. I got It's like the
two thumbs pointing at him. It's the anniversary. We celebrate
it here on the Cavino and Rich Show. Well, hey,
I don't know way we could go from there, because
that's the hot story of.

Speaker 3 (17:53):
The day I did. Guys, if you'll just allow me
twenty two seconds, I have the whole Travolta leading up
to us, Sam, unless you have it, I've got it.
I've got it here. This is the twenty two seconds
leading up to it. Buckle up.

Speaker 7 (18:10):
There will always be a special place in my heart
for the movie musical and for the songs that create
their most memorable moments. Here to perform the Ospar nominated,
gorgeously empowering song let It Go from the Oscar winning
animated movie Frozen, Please welcome the wickedly Talented One, and
only does.

Speaker 1 (18:33):
But the confidence in wickedly talented. It's like he's ready
to say the name perfectly. Yeah, he does not even close.
I love it. That's kind of how you feel when
you forget people's name though in real life though right like, Hey,
gad to meet you. I feel like that's what It's.

Speaker 3 (18:51):
Like walking on a high beam, like he knows he's
losing his balance and everything is in rhythm, sounds confident.
Then he just completely falls.

Speaker 1 (19:00):
You know what that is. That's the greatest miss quote
of all time, Pete Webber and the weakest misquote of
all time, the forgetful John Travolta. There you go. Listen.
We got a lot coming up. Matthew Stafford. H there's
talk where could he land? Does he stay with the Rams?
I know Sean McVay wants that, but what does he want?

(19:22):
What is the league going to dictate? In fact, H,
I have the one and only answer as to where
Matthew Stafford should end up. We're going to get to
that next. Plus, the report cards have come out in
the NFL. What teams treat the personnel and the family's best?

report cards, get them signed by your parents and made

Covino on Rich Fox Sports Radio, Danny G.

Speaker 8 (21:15):
I assume, Spotty Boy, Yeah, Damn ex pe d W
I'm Pete Webber, Pete Weber, Bro Covino and Rich live
from the ti raq dot com studio. That is us,

(21:37):
Steve Cavino. That's my name, Dicky doodle Boy Davis. That's
his name, Rich Davis, Danny G. Danny Grottio is his name,
or at least that's what people think because on social
media it's Danny G Radio, So there's people that work
here that think his name is Danny Grottio. But that's
close enough Danny G. Because he's gangsta.

Speaker 1 (22:00):
Samuel is on the Ones and Twoes, Dan Byer's got
your update in about ten minutes, and Spotty Boy spot
getting ready for midweek major We do it every Wednesday,
the biggest stories and headlines and sports and pop culture.
But right now Matt Stafford in the news Now, Mattymore,
that's number one in the headlines right now, Matthew Stafford,

(22:20):
let's talk about the quarterback of the Los Angeles Rams.
I think this is this is like such a simple solution,
and I hear so many people talking about where could
he end up? There's options and how much money is
he going to take? And where could he end up?
Here's where I want to start. It's clear that Sean mcvay'
is a fan. They want a Super Bowl together. McVeigh

(22:43):
said this about a month ago. Take a listen.

Speaker 4 (22:46):
I don't want to have that go on again.

Speaker 1 (22:47):
That's not so.

Speaker 3 (22:48):
I don't think that's good for anybody. I think sooner
than later, being able to get that clarity, understand, clear,
open and honest communication. I think there's a lot of
love coming from our part. I think there's a lot
of appreciation coming from his part as well, and a
lot sooner than later. It is an ideal scenario.

Speaker 1 (23:06):
Yeah, so Stafford and the Ram showing a mutual interest. McVeigh,
they want a super Bowl together. There's a legacy there
that makes sense. The question there is how much money
do the Rams want to give a thirty seven year
old quarterback who's you know, his skills are not gonna
be on the up and up, and you could say

(23:27):
pass this prime, past this prime. It doesn't mean he's
out of wins or he's out of gas, but he's
passed his prime. He's on the down side of a
stellar career, Diana, and on the upside. Diana Rassini, friend
of the show, love her. You saw her at the
Super Bowl. Yeah. She had Chase Daniels on her podcast
and they were talking about the type of money maybe
Stafford could get if he stays with the Rams.

Speaker 2 (23:50):
Matthew goes out, sees that there's no market for him
at the price he wants, and the Rams say, all right,
we'll bring it back for forty million.

Speaker 1 (23:58):
Don't you think that's a fair.

Speaker 7 (24:01):
No, what, Diana, You're too much front office speak.

Speaker 1 (24:06):
Forty million is a travesty, a travesty.

Speaker 2 (24:10):
If he gets forty million, I would, at this point,
to be completely honest with you, from a player's perspective,
I would retire.

Speaker 4 (24:18):
Get daddy.

Speaker 1 (24:18):
I mean, I heard Jonas Knox right here on Fox
Sports Radio talking about him. He's made three hundred and
sixty million. I wrote, Look, that's right there. I wrote
that down three sixty four. That's not enough money. That's
not a good enough little nest egg right now for
him to sit on while he makes another forty to
play in the city. He's already ends. I mean a
powerball jackplot. Seriously. Uh, but the story today is and

(24:43):
I don't like it because it seems that he's still
buddy chummy whit McVeigh. You know, we tied things back
to relationships. It's like you and your girlfriend think you're good,
but then you see her on social media and she's
bowling with some other guy. You know, she's at the
club with someone else. You're like, wait a second, I

(25:05):
thought we were good. Well, here's a development were understanding
a developing story. According to Jordan Schultz, Raiders minority owner
Tom Brady recently hosted Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford at his
home in Montana, and they've been spending time together skiing

(25:27):
and just chilling. Brady has been actively trying to convince
Stafford to join the Raiders. And here's why I think
that is perfect hold on, you know the other backstory though.
Ian Rappaport of NFL Media reacted to the report by
explaining that Brady and Stafford ran into each other at

(25:48):
the ski resort in Montana, that it was an unplanned meeting,
not some sort of extensive or in depth meeting that
Brady was hosting that he wasn't recruiting staff. And it's like,
get out of here. That is bs. That's some BS.
Your girlfriend would tell you when you saw the social
media post of her and the dude at the club.

(26:09):
He just bumped into each other. I total cool incident.
I didn't know Franz and I went my friend, well
look at it this way, Cove. Who knows more about
what an aging quarterback has left in the tank than
a guy that won when he went to the bucks
post forty TB twelve. So not everybody has the conditioning

(26:31):
yeah of an older TV twelve. Can I give you
the not everybody's Tom bra got give you the quick
bullet points I wrote down why I think this makes
perfect sense. What do you mean perfect sense for him
to be a Raider? Yes, I think it would make
more sense for him to keep his ass where he
is right now. Matthew Stafford to the Raiders makes perfect sense.

(26:52):
Dare I say almost Kurt Headache perfect? I would say maybe,
if not where he is right now? If not with
the Rams, listen the raatest. I live in Woodland Hills,
the rich people neighborhood down the block that have a
way higher tax bracket. That's called Hidden Hills. Matthew Stafford

(27:14):
has an estate. He has a beautiful house. His wife
has her podcast studio. His daughters are involved in the community.
One of his kids goes to my daughter's dance studio.
They live in southern California. He's thirty seven, live in
the dad life. They have a beautiful home. He's a
super Bowl champion. He spent over a decade in Detroit.

(27:35):
No offensive trid to that. We got a big station there.
H He's on the up and up, and the guy's
thirty seven. He's gonna be on Quarterback Season two on Netflix.
He maybe got that taste of the Hollywood bug. How
quickly do you and I get from Burbank Airport to
Las Vegas, Nevada? Oh, in like twelve minutes? It seems

(27:56):
like you're right, yeah, there's no drink service up and
down thirty five five minutes. You know that little Van
Eys Airport right down the block here, little private Jet
Vegas might as well be Orange County. Matthew Stafford could
play for the Raiders one to two years and it

(28:16):
would almost be like playing here in southern California, Tom
Brady fresh start looking for a face. Maybe you draft
Shad or Sanders and he learns behind Stafford. This makes
so much sense to me, Danny G because you were
talking about maybe Sam Darnold, No, Matthew Stafford, you might
be able to compete. What's he gonna get from the Raiders?

(28:38):
If he was gonna get forty million from the Rams,
I'm saying, even if it's the same money, then why
wouldn't move? Why move it all? Because the Rams, the Rams,
like Cooper cup Go, they're but the Rams might be
in more of a rebuilding rebuilding phase at this point.
And and Matthew Stafford, and you think the Raiders are
like gonna win all of a sudden hold on though

(28:59):
I completely agret. Just want to make it clear I
agree with Rich if the Rams are out of the
question for whatever reason, like he just doesn't like the
direction are going. He thinks his time's expired there, he
had a fight behind the scenes with somebody, he's being
mistreated whatever. Okay, So I get it, because it's such
an easy trip from Vegas to La lifestyle reasons, his
family's here's a quick flight I get it, but why

(29:21):
not just stay with the Rams. I haven't heard that's
what I think. That's the better I'm not saying that's
not option. I'm saying Matthew Stafford to the Raiders just
makes so much logistical sense for a veteran of thirty
seven years old. If he was twenty four and he
had another decade plus in the league, I'd say, explore
your options. But unless the the power of Brady kicks

(29:46):
in where he's so enamored to be skiing with Tommy
and they sipping hacoco at the lodge, like to be
in partnership with such a such a winning so of
culture that Brady's trying to create. I mean, Tom Brady
has a resumes Tom Brady. Maybe that has so much

(30:07):
pull on him that we don't even know. I'm we
often use the word glamored. You know where we got
that from. Maybe he's so glamored by Tommy that it's
more of a reality than we think. We got glamored
from True Blood. Remember the show True Blood where the
vampires had such a power over mere humans, like you
look at them and they would glamor them. They said,

(30:29):
glamored them. So maybe Tom is really glamoring this dude. Otherwise,
the best option from the outside looking in is to
stay in La where his family. Dude outside looking in, Yeah,
rams clearly the easiest option, But I'm saying anything other
than the Vegas Raiders retirement almost seems like the best option.
But if you want to keep playing, do you think

(30:50):
he wants to go play for the Giants or move
across the country. I'm telling you at this stage of
the game because I'm living a similar life without the
hundreds of millions of dollars. He's got little kids, He's
at is forever home. He's in Hidden Hills, the nicest
neighborhood in the valley. And by the way, he came
here because he wanted to live here. Yeah, his wife
is happy, right, his kids are again in their school

(31:13):
system and everything going on. This is not thirty seven
years old. You got to pick up the fambamdozle as
you call. You gotta pick up the family and move.
Vegas is a half hour private flight away. It makes sense, Danny,
you are the Raiders fan. Am I wrong?

Speaker 7 (31:31):
No?

Speaker 4 (31:32):
I mean the wild card in this is how quickly
if and if Pete Carroll can get the program turned
around in Las Vegas. But in his past we've seen
him do it at USC. Of course, we've seen him
do it in Seattle for dB Seahawks and in a
twelve month calendar. This guy can turn an entire program around.
We've seen him do it before. It still remains to

(31:52):
be seen for LV, but if he can at least
get the Raiders moving in the right track. And what
would be I think selling point for Brady to Stafford is, Dude,
you get to throw to the best tight end in football.
All of a sudden, you got brock Bauers, you got
an underrated receiver in Myers. We're going to add some
more pieces in the draft also, that would open up things.

(32:13):
Maybe to draft Gente, a cash cow running back at
number six, and then top of the second round, maybe
get a guy like Jackson Dart to sit and learn
behind a Stafford.

Speaker 1 (32:23):
And I'm sure there's some allure of being wooed by
Tom Brady. I believe that, but kemna. What about he
is Tom Brady and this would be one of his
first big gets. But what about the idea also of this,
there's some big name free agent or wanting to be
traded wide receivers in the National Football League. So if
you're telling the football players of the NFL, oh, the

(32:47):
Raiders now they got Pete Carroll, tom Brady's overseeing it. Wow,
Matthew Stafford, we sold brock Bauers did last year. I
does a lot lining up where the Raiders start to
become a desirable place for a free agent to go
or a receiver that wants to be traded on the move,
like a Deebo Samuel who's like, don't it seems like
he's done with the Niners. There's places. It's a tough division.

(33:09):
That's the only rub That means. You got to be
better than bow Nicks and Peyton Sean Payton. You got
to be better than the defending AFC champions. Here's what
I need to do. Better than Harbon and I know
Harmark Anthony Rich. I need to know. I need to know.
I need to know to have a really full assessment
of how I feel about this. I agree the best

(33:30):
two options would be either to stay in la or
go to Vegas, which was a quick flight. He wouldn't
have to change his lifestyle. He gets to keep his
own house. But I would need to know is he
just chasing the bag here or does he really believe
that the Rams are on the decline and the Raiders
are on the income. I'm just saying, if the Rams
don't work out, you have to have an option too,
And I think this is pretty sweet. You know what

(33:51):
you said to me recently what we were in Vegas
doing a Fight night for Fox Sports Radio and you joked, like, yo, bro,
would it be cool to do like every Friday show here?
I know why you said that, because it's so damn
easy to get to Las Vegas from southern California that
you and I regular DUFs is flying southwest get there
in thirty five minutes as deep as the ploy. Well,

(34:11):
think about that while we go to damn yer for
an update. Uh, thank you for hanging with us. Do
fi hey.

Speaker 3 (34:17):
Perfect transition use you made it plural. I'll be included
in that group. The Jordan Schultz did snap back at
Ian Rappaport's report by saying, and I messed up the
The read earlier on what Schultz's response was, but he said,
if you really think Tom Brady and Matthew Stafford just
happened to run into each other at a ski resort
in Montana, of all places, at the exact same time.

(34:39):
I've got a bridge to sell you. That's what Jordan
Schultz responded.

Speaker 1 (34:44):
That was a planned out meeting, no doubt absolutely.

Speaker 3 (34:48):
Speaking of Raider quarterbacks, Derek Carr is a former Raiders
quarterback and he's currently with the Saints and he's currently
QB one Gea. Mickey Loomis says that Carr is expected
to be their starter entering next season. You mentioned Deebo
Samuel's ten year with San Francisco Rich likely coming to
an end. Sure sounds like it. From Niners GM John Lynch.

Speaker 1 (35:06):
We're on good terms with Deebo.

Speaker 6 (35:08):
You know, he's asked for a fresh start, and you know,
I think we're going to honor that.

Speaker 3 (35:13):
Other news from the forty nine Ers, Lynch said they've
spoken with Brock Pertio about a contract and they plan
on having Trent Williams back next season. The NFL will
use an electronic system to measure first down starting in
twenty twenty five. The league experimented with the move in
some stadiums in the preseason of twenty twenty four. The
Chain Gang They'll still be on the field, but they'll
be used as a backup and as a visual aid

(35:35):
to runners. The Green Bay Packers have had conversations about
trading quarter Tryry Alexander, who has two years left on
his deal. Andrew Berry said it yesterday with the Browns,
and head coach Kevin Stefanskia Cleveland said it again today.
They expect to have Miles Garrett in twenty twenty five.

Speaker 1 (35:50):
Guys. Back to you, Thanks Van byre your thoughts. By
the way, if this Matthew Stafford to the Raiders makes
perfect sense, If he does, could we know if he
doesn't stay put one answer only, and that's the Las
Vegas Raiders and Tom Brady I'm sure is making that
really appealing to him. And I'm curious to see what happens.

(36:12):
I'm curious to see what type of money the Raiders
are throwing at his right, at his way. We got
more coming up next Fox Sports Radio. Can you know, Rich,
I need to know. I need to know Mark Anthony's style,
what sort of offerings the Raiders are thrown at Stafford's way.

(36:35):
I also think he's willing to walk away from about
forty million a year from the Rams and the comfort
of just finishing out his career. With the team he
won with. But you don't know if that forty mili
is even an option.

Speaker 3 (36:47):
We don't.

Speaker 1 (36:47):
There's no offer yet, so we'll see. But I also
need to know. Is Mark Anthony part vampire?

Speaker 7 (36:51):
He is?

Speaker 1 (36:51):
Yeah, he is. He looks like a vampire, speaking of
but yeah, the story goes that Tommy Brady, you know, Tommy,
tom Brady and Matt Stafford are hanging around buddy chummy
in Montana, skiing and probably doing business. There's no doubt
doing business. Tom Brady was obviously spending it. You think

(37:14):
Tom Brady just hangs with quarterbacks for no reason. No,
they didn't bump into each other by accident. He's trying
to see if he can get him to play for
the Raiders period. Have you the power and beauty of
having a Tom Brady as a partial owner. Have you
ever had that happen in your personal life, hanging out
with Tom Brady. No, that'd be pretty sweet, that would
be cool.

Speaker 7 (37:34):
No, the.

Speaker 1 (37:37):
Terrible coincidence that, like my ex is, here are some
girls here, and you're like, honey, it was not planned,
because you're right, that report from me and Rappaport and
who's the who's the other one who was Schultz arguing
over whether whether or not it's a it's a coincidence,
no chance of Tom Brady and Matthew Stafford being at

(37:59):
the same resort in Montana. It's like, hey, you're here,
I'm here all this time. What a coincident. Dance which
rich people vacation in like very similar spots. You hear
about it. They all share their spots. It's like, oh,
you want to avoid the plebes, go stay here. Oh,
but that's how these deals get done.

Speaker 4 (38:18):
Good to you.

Speaker 1 (38:18):
You didn't, oh tell me, didn't. And Cashman just happened
to be at some banquet together, and Cashman was like, yo, man,
how about you want to play for the Yankees? And
Aron's like what, Like that's how things happened. Don't act
like business wasn't going down. You think they were just
high five and hitting the mountain. I think they were
just hitting some moguls, like, yeah, what's up. I think

(38:41):
they were just riding down the Black Diamond together, so
holding hands. There was something you said about how the
K twelve rich people do hang at the same place
as so I it's too much of a continence. Way,
no way, what no way? This was a meeting. Don't
be fooled. Speaking of a Rod. You brought up a

(39:01):
Rod and how he bumped into Brian Cashman back in
the day. Well, yeah, they were at some sort of banquet.
I think that's the backstory. And it was just like
you know, in passing, like yeah, you know, would you
play third base? And A Rod was like, are you serious?
Where the pinstripes? And that's how business happens. Well, speaking
of a Rod sometimes, I posted a clip on my
Instagram story at Rich Davis, Hey, give me a follow.

(39:24):
What the heck? A Rod, who we've talked about, changed
his image so much in the last handful of years,
Like he went from putts to like really likable guy.
There's a video of a Rod getting lunch at like
a diner and some little kid comes up to a
Rod with his iPad. He's like, hey, mister Rod, a Rod,

(39:45):
can you look at my swing and give me some tips?
And A Rod's encouraging this little kid looking at a
swing on the iPad. I'm like, you know what, A
Rod is the best example of change his image for
the better. I mean, you can ever deny his love
and passion of baseball, but watching him help this little kid. Honestly,
you'll be like, how cute man.

Speaker 4 (40:06):
So you're saying a Rod is a okay.

Speaker 1 (40:08):
He's a okay In my book, I really.

Speaker 4 (40:10):
Am okay Rod.

Speaker 1 (40:11):
I never hated a Rod like other people did. But
what I learned from that is that Rich would call
him mister Rod if he met him. That's my takeaway.
It's a pleasure to meet you. I have your jersey.
I hope it doesn't say mister Rod on it. So

(40:34):
thank you. Great story Live from the Tyraq dot com studio.
We got midweek major next hour plus the team report
cards and speaking of uh, a Rod helping a little leaguer.
I have a piece of advice for all the parents
that are coaching kid sports and are involved every weekend
with all your kids sports and activities. A great piece

(40:55):
of advice coming up next right here Cavino and Rich
