hollow you Steve. Yeah, that's me.

Speaker 2 (00:32):
That was me yesterday.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
That's it. Lame about it. I posed a question because
a lot of the feedback came in and it was like, well,
at least you had your headphones, because that's even worse.
I'm like, let me think about that. So I did
have my headphones. That being said, my goodness, the odd couple.
What a show. Props to them. Oh that's what you
listen do. Yeah, they're fantastic. I love me some Bob

(00:54):
Parker and Kelvin Washington. Great show. So anyway, uh huh,
I'm haven't been to give you a shout out today.
I don't to shout out.

Speaker 2 (01:02):
I'll do it I'm gonna be on their show today
an hour two.

Speaker 1 (01:04):
Sounds good the hot Seat tell him I said thank
you for getting through that miserable day yesterday. So that
was just my first question to ponder. And then I
got to say, man, I saw this clip that sort
of blew my mind. But let me hear your question
for Danny G. What's your question on the hot Seat
today on the Odd Couple.

Speaker 3 (01:21):
Oh, I can't give away the topics you tune in for. Yeah,
damn three hot hot takes. I did the Hot Seat
about a month ago and.

Speaker 2 (01:27):
He got gonged.

Speaker 1 (01:29):
Yeah, I don't know if I can handle that pressure. Man,
you guys ever been made to the hot seat? You
should do it. It's fun. Just think of it.

Speaker 2 (01:35):
Think of yourself as a pro wrestler.

Speaker 1 (01:38):
Kaviina doesn't like to do anything. There were two characters
growing up my children's book, My Richard Scary children's book.
It was Pig will and pig won't. Right, he's a
pig won't. I realized that a very young age, I'm
a pig won't. Sam Pig won't ask him twice, he
definitely won't do it. I don't want to. I don't
want to guarantee, you'll never do it. He'll never do it. Right,
here we go, Come on, dude, do it. No, thanks,

(01:59):
he'll never do it. No, come on, no, no, I'm
definitely not doing it. What was your question?

Speaker 2 (02:02):
Rich?

Speaker 1 (02:02):
Before we get into this, I have a football question
that's gonna blow your mind. Guys, blow your mind? What
was your question? I mean, now that you're talk about
headphones of the gym and this while pale in comparison,
are good pell Jay Stu from the Gottlieb Show. Who
you know Jay Stue? Superstar, actor, producer, He's done it all,
you know Jay. He looks real snooty, but he's a

(02:24):
really nice guy. Snooty, yeah, he wants what do you mean, snooze?
So he's mean mugging everybody, but when you talk to him,
he's a really swell fella. Your abe proman that guy.
So Jay Stu said, if I'm looking to brought in
my terrible TV watching and I wanted to watch a

(02:46):
dating or reality show that's not The Bachelor, I'll tell
you what. Jay Stue went to the expert. So I
can't wait to hear what you told him. And unfortunately
I don't watch all these shows. But I had an
answer for him. He's like, if you were to watch
well show older than the Bachelor, that's pretty good, JAYSU, Right,
it's not bad. If you heard a Waltra show older

(03:06):
than the Bachelor in the dating world, what would it be?
And he's like, it's like Temptation Island. There's all these
uh love Island fantasy that I said, you know what,
I feel like, Love is Blind might be the one.
I agree with you unless it's pretty good, unless, of course,
you just want to see hot booty and if your
objective is like hot ass, too hot to handle, or

(03:29):
one of those shows where no one could keep it
in their pants, if that's what you're looking for. But
if you're looking for entertainment, Danny G would you back
me up in Love is Blind might be the best
of those.

Speaker 3 (03:37):
Yeah, even though this current season eight is slightly boring, Yeah,
it wasn't.

Speaker 2 (03:41):
Usually it's a good watch.

Speaker 1 (03:44):
Yeah, Dave was the only weenie on this season that
bothered me so hard hitting questions to start the show.
What's what's the best? I agree with the best cheap
dating show. It's just not as trashy as the other ones.
It's actually pretty decent because it's a social experiment. But
love is blind is a great answer. It's more popular
and better than The Bachelor nowadays. If that's your steeze.

(04:06):
Too hot to handle, if you are going like raunch,
Too hot to handle is funny because you get all
these twenty somethings and they're there to just like get naked,
and then on episode one it's like this is a
trick you're on. Too hot to handle, And the reaction
they give when they're told they're unable to hook up

(04:27):
it almost as if you took away food from them
or drink, Like, I don't know if I'm gonna survive.
I haven't gotten any in twenty four hours. Wait, I can't.
I can't get any moody. How were all I live? Like?
They're ridiculous? There's no sex? Oh man, god, what's wrong?
I think I'm dying. What's the matter? We're total gotten
any in two days. We were told for the extent

(04:47):
of the couple weeks around this island, we can't have
so yeah, because you are a very sexual If you
want ultra trash, that is the way to go. Too
hot to handle if you want a decent show, but
still trash, I would say, was the Blind's the answer
today is the blind. So we asked you two hard
hitting questions to start the show. But now the real Meat, Now,

(05:08):
I gotta say Dan has had another dating show, The
Real Meat spelled me e t oh okay, Yeah, that
one's on a Wisconsin Yeah, starts uh, starts next fall.
The real Meat now. Stan Byer dropped this little nugget
in his update yesterday, and Rich wasn't listening because Rich

(05:28):
doesn't pay attention, wants to tell jokes all day, you know,
Rich regular regular Louis c k over here. So Dan
Byer said, hey, guys, I don't know if you saw this,
but there's this clip of Micah Parsons and he's trying
to wrestle a sumo guy and he can't even budge him.
And I remember looking it up because we're doing the show.

(05:50):
I'm trying to multitask. I'm like, really, that sounds interesting.
So I looked it up real quick, and I'm like,
that can't be it. During Dan Buyer's updates, you're usually
cleaning your sneakers with Clark's wife. That's the respect you get. All.
That's called multitasking. Yeah, and that's also a great cheap
skate tip of the day. Use the company's wipes to
clean your sneakers. Okay, fair enough. So he's talking about this,

(06:15):
I'm looking it up and I'm saying to myself, this
can't be it, because when I'm picturing a sumo wrestler
and an NFL player, I'm assuming like this has to
be some sort of Yoka zuna six hundred pounds sumo
wrestler if a NFL superstar can't budget them, managed by
mister Fuji or so. Yeah, So I'm like, hey, you
know what, I'll look it up later. I'll look it

(06:36):
up later. This can't be it. So, dude, I looked
it up and I'm like, oh no, that was it.
There is a clip and again Dan Buyer said it,
but until you see it doesn't register. You got to
see it with your own two eyes. They're on this
Tokyo trip. They're on a trip and Michael Parsons is
with a sumo dude. They're in their sumo diapers and everything.

(06:57):
You know those things they wear at Asumo diper called
the szumo die. Yeah, well that's the technical term. Yeah,
And Michael Parsons is full on trying to budge this
sumo guy, but full on, like using his legs, running
as hard as he can, and the sumo guy doesn't budge.
He slides maybe half an inch, not even, but his
legs and knees never buckle. And Michael Parsons is like,

(07:20):
it's not fair. I need someone my size. But this
dude was barely bigger than him. Like he wasn't some gigantic,
you know, super sumo guy that you have in your imagination.
He's like an average looking sumo dude and he couldn't
budge him. So it dawned on me. I'm like, yo,
I know it's probably been thought about before, but if
they could teach these guys some technique, I'll never downplay

(07:42):
the technique an NFL player has in the skill level
that they possess, But if they can't budge a sumo dude,
you can't teach this dude a few tricks and get
him on the line somewhere. If you and this has happened,
if you find some seven foot dude, a new Bau
living in the jungle somewhere, you try to train that guy.
Do you know how to play basketball? You've seen rugby

(08:02):
guys the NFL has experimented with, Like, yo, these are
some tough sobs, can I tell you? When we were kids,
they is the thing they handed out called the Weekly Reader.
Ye way back on a Wednesday, we would all get
the Weekly Reader, and the story was that they found
a seven foot dude in a jungle and they're teaching
him like fighting a line or something stupid like that.
They're like, and they're gonna teach him to play basketball.

(08:24):
That was the story we were told when we were kids.
That they're also a movie with Billy Crystal, but I'm serious.
That was what it was, what was told in the
Weekly Reader. And I remember talking to our teachers about it.
That guy was minute ball because he had the natural
gifts and the height. They just had to teach him
the skill. And now his son is doing his thing.

(08:46):
If these sumo dudes are that strong from their years
of training and they have this particular set of skills
where they can't be budget, you can't teach them a
little dip and rip and get them on the line
to protect the quarterback or something, you can't eat him this.
Michael Parsons looks like a little baby boy trying to budget.
This dude in this clip. I couldn't believe it. I

(09:07):
showed it to Rich. Rich please back me up here,
Dan Byer, you were right. I'm sorry I downplayed your story,
but I couldn't find it in that moment. Until I
saw it, it didn't really register.

Speaker 4 (09:16):
It is a It is a great video. And Michael
Parson's like, I need a different weight class so that
this guy was outside of his weight class, not by much.

Speaker 1 (09:23):
He was, yeah, like that's what I'm saying. You're picturing, Well,
this guy must be Yokazuna. Yes he's not. Do you
have the sound I was laughing at him. Here's the sound.
You could hear the everyone they're like, oh, I can't

(09:44):
budge him.

Speaker 2 (09:46):
I need someone my weight class.

Speaker 1 (09:48):
We class. But meanwhile, Michael Parsons is a star in
the league. Here's how I see it. He's a star
in the league, and he's a specimen. He's a built dude, right,
and he's going all in. He was committed, he was trying,
and to my knowledge, it's probably just some random sumo guy.
Is he a superstar? I don't think so. I know

(10:10):
the movie I'll think it of was not Lilly Crystal
do you remember the Air up there with Kevin Bacon. Yeah, dude,
he found he found the dude. Yeah that's right. Yeah,
they could play basketball. Listen, the forty nine has tried this,
and I'm sure other teams have where it's like, you know,
there's a badass rugby guy that has no fear, he's tough,
plays rugby that hasn't necessarily translated to the NFL. But

(10:33):
I don't see why soccer kickers haven't necessarily translated as
well as you would think as NFL kickers. I remember
there's a story a few years ago about some sumo
kid they brought into a college camp. Like, I've heard
the story before, and obviously you know the thought has
been there before, but when you see this, you're like, man,
they got to figure that out. These dudes are too

(10:54):
big and too strong. You know who was actually a
sumo champion, Because there's a part of you racist that
things all sumo wrestlers are Japanese or of Asian descent.
You know who's a sumo champion? I saw this on
a wrestling documentary. Remember the Big Beefy wrestler Earthquake. Yeah,

(11:15):
of course. I think his name is John Tenta he
was a sumo champion, and I saw a very similar
footage where big bohemoth guys.

Speaker 2 (11:23):
I remember the.

Speaker 1 (11:23):
Comedian Earthquake too. He could have been a sumo wrestler,
but do you know what earthquake? The wrestler could not
be moved and they were like, hey, do you want
to wrestle? Because he just had athleticism. I think what
you're saying sounds hilarious, but there's something to be said
about if sumo wrestlers cannot be moved by Micah Parsons, Like,

(11:43):
why wouldn't someone say at least try Hey, there's millions
of dollars involved. We need to beef up our offensive line.
Do you want to play in the National Football League? Though?
Think of culturally, right, the discipline involved in everything these
guys do. They can't figure out some minor techniques.

Speaker 5 (12:02):
There's run blocking, there's and it's not just it's not
just power on power. A lot of guys are gonna
have that swim move, so they gotta.

Speaker 2 (12:08):
Have good feet.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
How about this? You ever see the here's my reference point,
which is absurd and ridiculous. Do you ever see the
hashpipe video by Weezer? Imagine this, there's a bunch of
sumo dudes. You're like dun dun, d d pushing their
hands up. All they're doing. You don't think these guys
just there's similar to the over bum bum bum bum

(12:30):
bum bum boom boom. You don't think they could protect
the quarterback, get their feet a little quicker. Come on, man,
I think there's something there. When you see the clip,
I know it sounds ridiculous, like, oh yeah, great thought guys,
sumo dude, watch the clip and you'll think twice about it.
After watching the clip. There's no difference from what Cavino's
saying when they find like a seven footer that's never

(12:52):
played basketball and it's like, hey, let's let's see what
there's something here? Or again rugby players. Does that translate
to the NFL soccer kickers? You know soccer guys that
have a striking foot and you're like, yo, maybe this
guy could kick sixty our field goals.

Speaker 3 (13:08):
When you brought up your Niners trying out rugby players
made me think of the famous drop we have the
Awes muffed it.

Speaker 2 (13:20):
That was your guy, Jared Haynes. After he muffed a punt.

Speaker 1 (13:23):
Jared. They said, you know what, you know that was
the forty nine ers theory. This is I remember I
was living in LA because I remember they signed them,
and I remember where I was. I was living in Trimnoak,
so I had to be within the last ten years.
The Niner side, Jared Hayne and their whole thought was
this guy can't be stopped on the rugby field, so
he could be punt return, kick return special teams. This

(13:45):
guy's as tough as they get, and it just didn't
really translate to the NFL. But based on the Micah
Parsons clip, you don't think this could be an international opportunity.
We've seen what Shohey has done internationally for baseball. I
don't think you're saying it is funny or crazy. It
could be if they found the right guy, that could
be a great story. I mean, yeah, great experiment for somebody.

(14:07):
Yeah it's funny, but I think there's nothing crazy about it.
When you first say, like, really, Comuno Sumo Wrestlers's lineman.
But if you see this Micah Parson's clip and you
can't budget, and then you're thinking like, well, all right,
imagine if it's Nick Bosa or Max Crosby or Miles Garrett.
If there's guys that could that could you know, get

(14:28):
in the way of these beasts in the NFL, there's
got to be a team that's investigated and said, ah,
there's a reason, and here's the reason. Because technique, that's
what I would imagine. Yeah, I think the NFL people
possessed the years of technique that shouldn't be over mind.
And it's not easy to learn and pick up. Sumo's
all balance though, and like and technique. So it is

(14:49):
an interesting thought.

Speaker 5 (14:50):
And listen, the movie The Replacements is way ahead of you, guys,
because they had an offensive tackle named Jumbo Fumiko Fumiko
Jumbo Fumiko, who is a titious lineman, a big Japanese guy.
So they were well ahead of you.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
Well, watch the clip Fox Sports Radio Nation again Michael
Parsons with the sumo. Dude, he can't budge them, And
let us know what you think. Is it possible? Do
you give these guys more credit than you originally would
have thought. You're not the first to think of this, obviously,
but I just no, no kidding, Yeah, it's an easy
thought to happen. When you see it, it's different. There's

(15:28):
a huge Reddit thread that pops up immediately. And here's
the title. Why don't NFL teams recruit or train sumo
wrestlers in guard positions? And they said, simil wrestling is
based on power, explosiveness, low center of gravity, balance and quickness,
all the attributes of alignment. Yo, for real, watch look

(15:49):
like I said, watch this clip. Get back to us
at eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox and again
we're gonna talk some fighting. There's big news in the
world of the fighting. You know what some of the
answers and some midweek major Yeah, you know what, why
don't you tell us next? I have the answer. We're
going to talk fighting real quick phone call now eight seven,
seven ninety nine on Fox. What's up Nick in Virginia?

(16:11):
What's about? Hey?

Speaker 6 (16:13):
How you fellas doing?

Speaker 2 (16:14):
We're good man?

Speaker 1 (16:14):
What's up?

Speaker 6 (16:16):
Well? Just kind of going with your conversation. So, the
Eagles left tackle Jordan Malita actually was a rugby player.
And I can't remember if they drafted him like seventh
round or signed him as a free agent, but yeah,
he was rugby player. He spent a couple of years
on the practice squad with Jeff Stoutlin, and then he's
been our left tackle like three or four, three or
four years now, Yeah, I know.

Speaker 1 (16:37):
The rugby scene is one that's been investigated and Kevino's right.
For years it was like, oh, if you're a soccer player,
that's you're you're you got a superfoot and you're a
striker of sorts. When do you assume maybe that guy
could kick sixty yardfield goals? Yeah? I mean, you see kickboxers, turnboxing, turnboxer,
you see a lot of other moves being made. This
would be a really cool one. I would love it.

(16:58):
It would be a great story. We can only dream
and fantasize, but surprising to see what's up?

Speaker 5 (17:03):
You know, and a lot of guys who wrestle in
high school going to make great offensive tackles and offensive
linemen because, like you know, staying in the United States domestically,
wrestling and being an offensive lineman have share a lot
of components.

Speaker 1 (17:15):
Yeah, there's there's you know, balanced technique, all those things.
So all right, there you go, think about it, Sumo
wrestlers in the NFL, could it be. Let's go to
the guy that showed us the clip yesterday, Dan Buyer,
for an update. What's up?

Speaker 4 (17:27):
D You see if they can block Max Crosby because
the Raiders defensive end is now the highest paid non
quarterback in the National Football League. Gets a three year
deal worth one hundred and six point five million dollars,
the average annual salary breaking down to about thirty five
and a half million per season. Crosby gets ninety one
million dollars guaranteed. Danny's Raiders were busy. They also signed

(17:48):
free agent guard to Alex Kappa today and are likely
to release quarterback Gardner Minshew.

Speaker 1 (17:54):
It is ash Wednesday. I do have a theory though
I was. I was raised Catholic, so I could say this.
I mean, so was I. Let's see, I'll be the
judge as was I tread lightly infirmed tread. However, I
the pope is not in good health. You better be
s Can I tell you about the Pope? Oh please,
I'd love to hear it. I have a Pope story

(18:16):
that I'll share with you. But first, let me say
when I see people with the ashes on their head today,
there's a sense that it's like, what do you think?
What do you think you're better than me? I'm glad
you said that. There's a sense of like when you
show up to work like you could have done it
after work. You don't need to keep it on your head.
There's no rule where you can't wipe it off. My
sister sentence, Dude, it's the equivalent to an I vote.

(18:39):
My sister sent me a picture of her and her forehead.
I'm like, so you think you're better than you think
it better than me to get a mom's good side,
you guys, No, It's like I just need to find God.
I grew up on Long Island, where Jesus, the dirt
eggs of the community would go to like midnight Mass
on Christmas Eve, and they made it seem like I'm
the nicest guy. It's like, just because you get the

(18:59):
ass sh your head doesn't mean you're better than me.
But hey, happy ash Wednesday. What are you giving up
for lent? I've heard a lot of people say social media,
which isn't a bad thing to give up for forty
days tough for us in the world we live in.
But I see a lot of people saying I'm giving
up fighting about politics for forty days on social media.
So use your lent, wisely use it. WI my pope story,

(19:21):
let's hear about it. I'm not some world traveler, so
I don't want to make it sound that way. But
on my honeymoon, my wife and I did a little
European vacation, like we're a Chevy Chase or something. I
want you to break about it. We were walking through
the Vatican area. We're in Rome, and it just so
happened to me, like while we're walking through there, they
were setting up guardrails and I'm like, oh, everyone know you

(19:42):
move out of the way. And I'm like, what's going
on here? I happen to be in the right place
at the right time. Oh weird? Now was there great
naked gun reference? Weird? I was on the plane. Sorry, Frank,
I happen to be in the Vatican and they're like,
get behind this guard rail, and I'm like, what is
going on? When I I asked you? Not five feet

(20:02):
from me? The Pope is coming by in the little
Pope mobile. Pope Francis, is this our current pope? Whoever
the Pope was? You know, I don't believe how long
were you married to gow, how we was who he's
been here?

Speaker 5 (20:16):
He's been he's been here since twenty fourteen. The Pope,
the Pope Francis has been the p s before that
his name.

Speaker 2 (20:23):
I'd rather have details on the Pope Benedict.

Speaker 1 (20:26):
Benedict yeah whoever?

Speaker 2 (20:27):
It was chrome? Yeah, what kind of chrome rims?

Speaker 1 (20:29):
Dude? He had? He had a sweet horn. I was like,
were they spin in for the rim spinning? Ye? Sweet spinning?
Did they whistle? Went to uh tire rech and oh
yeah jets. Yeah, the perellies they sell those at the Vatican.
The p zero dice on his mirror comes by and

(20:50):
I have we didn't have you know, you didn't have
your best smartphone then you had like one of the
early iPhones. I take a selfie video and I thought
I had the greatest video ever because I had the
Pope right behind me, and I'm like, hey, Pope, sweeth
hat if you tell me that you have a picture
of the Pope flipping you off, I love that. I

(21:12):
want to see it now. I had this.

Speaker 2 (21:14):
Video no, this is an X files finish here.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
When I tell you.

Speaker 5 (21:19):
No, no, no.

Speaker 1 (21:19):
No, I immediately felt joy like I can't wait to show people.
Then I got a picture with like of the Pope
behind me in a video where I'm like hey bo
and talk about amazing timing right, no joke. Yeah, I
look at my phone. All the pictures I took in
that couple minute period were not on my phone, as
if the Pope has some type of like like a

(21:42):
scrambler of sorts. I was like, there's no way. My
wife was like, what do you mean I saw you
take the pictures. I'm like, I know, sounds like user
to me. Yeah, user error with an iPhone you putts
of course, you know it's like something that's like something
out of the Omen want omen, I want proof with
Gregory Peck. That's omen. You guys never believe me. About

(22:02):
a couple of years ago, I was walking I believe
thank you believe you guy. Don't believe anything else. I
want to Sam. I was walking around my town a
couple of years ago, and there were these two girls
in a Jeep convertible and it said hey you and
I looked over and they both flashed me. And I
told these guys the story and like that didn't happen.

(22:22):
Because how many times does the pop make some sort
of public appearance or something and he does his you know,
Sila cross and he dos andy, oh, father cole Mine.
He's out there doing his thing. Rocky fun. All right,
all right, well, when the pope is out there, people
are posting them. I'm seeing footage of the Pope all
the time. You act like he has his force field

(22:43):
only for your phone, operator error.

Speaker 5 (22:46):
Explain that I've seen so many uh personally taken photos.

Speaker 1 (22:50):
Of the Google search. There's millions of photos. Oh, but
it only blocks richest phone. So you're you're telling me
he hit a little dude like the Farnsworth Bentley, like
carrying umbrella or something. You don't think he has like
a helper. That was like, oh that gout. You know what,
the way I think about it is the dumbest story ever.
You messed up. Yeah, I hit, you messed up. There's

(23:11):
no way he scrambled my photo just hitting your thumbs
on it.

Speaker 5 (23:15):
And yeah, honestly, you were probably doing it so quick,
you were probably like so thrown off over here, and
you were just like hitting the screen, not even doing anything.
That's probably the real user error. It's user error, operator error.
I know you want it to be some sort of
crazy story.

Speaker 1 (23:31):
Richts to be this magical, like this uh magical holy story.
I don't know if it's that. I look at it
also of like you know, perhaps me even even goofing
with the Pope Rich is immaculate photos. It's the white screen.
Maybe I'm telling you was scrambled by the Pope, maybe
by God. Scrambled by God. Imagine Mary's in my toes,
the immaculate deletion.

Speaker 5 (23:55):
Will be here till Thursday looking for it, the immaculate delicious.

Speaker 1 (24:00):
So I went to eat after that and I saw
the Virgin Mary in my freshm todell. So I had
a crazy day. Crazy day. My grandma still has a
piece of toast that she worships. So anyway, I remember
when we first started doing I would say, we're not
even Like one day, We're sitting in our office and
Kevin I was like, look at this. Back in like

(24:21):
the early days of like stupid videos on social media,
there was a guy that thought he found Jesus in
his bag of Cheetahs. Oh it was called Jesus. Called
it Jesus. You can find that google is it was.
It looked like a Cheeto in the form of Jesus
on the cross. So we proceeded by buying like twenty
bags of Cheetos to see if we can find it Jeesus.

(24:44):
We could not till this day. Rich thanks Jesus every
day for his wonderful career and family.

Speaker 2 (24:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (24:51):
So anyway, happy Ash Wednesday. Not trying to be sacrilegious here.
My family celebrates. If I had time, I would too.
But I'll be saying my prayers and eating my vitamin
tonight and I thank you guys. Now to wrap up,
dB actually has a question.

Speaker 4 (25:05):
Yeah, yeah, just I just want to let you guys know,
while you're making fun of Rich, I did once Pully Dorito,
that was the Kansas City Chief Cherilhead, and I had
a chicken tender from Popeyes that looked exactly like Italy.

Speaker 1 (25:18):
So it ties your point. Yes, hold on, time out. Yes,
looks like Italy. There's only two McNugget shapes, the round
one and a boot, so you got the one that's
like a boot. Doesn't mean it's Italy. It's a tender.
It looks exactly. I actually took a picture. It was

(25:40):
by Pope Eyes. I hope. Yes, Oh God it's good
Man wishing the Pope well he is ill, right so
much to cut out rebound buddies. He has been ill. Yeah,
I'm going to send the Dorrito to the group.

Speaker 4 (25:57):
Text search for the Chicken Tender.

Speaker 5 (26:01):
I thought that was just an Oscars promotion for the
movie Conclave.

Speaker 1 (26:05):
Very good, It's fun. Did you ever see the Curb
episode where Larry David accidentally pee on the on the
picture in the bathroom and the person thought the was
it a moment to focus gears. This is what happens
when the caffeine rich.

Speaker 2 (26:24):
You have to say urinate.

Speaker 1 (26:25):
Wait, we had a dump out of what.

Speaker 3 (26:26):
Yeah, you can't say that P word coming out of
your body. You have to say urinate or just describe
it differently. Curious, I'm serious. Yeah, yeah, you know.

Speaker 1 (26:35):
An HR course that you take, of course Danny took,
you know, the one that you paid your kid to take. Yeah,
it was like a candy. It's all I can't I said, click,
keep clicking next and I'll give you. I'll buy I'll
buy you.

Speaker 2 (26:50):
Some patch kids said.

Speaker 5 (26:52):
Danny told us that like a million times, just said
made a mess on Larry David made a mess started
getting on a picture.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
Of number one, No, a number of uno.

Speaker 1 (27:04):
And remember the woman thought it was like a sign.
That was such a great episode of Curb. But Spot
told me to focus, so let me focus.

Speaker 5 (27:10):
Took story because we shamed you.

Speaker 1 (27:14):
Yeah, let's say let's let's let's talk about the NFL
combine guys trying to talk about here ready Focus Factor
eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. It's a big
story today. Might not sound like much now because details
are still coming out, But to think I rolled with
your sumo crap for twenty minutes, I mean, if you wanna,
that's disrespect the David twenty eleven, Larry David did that

(27:37):
and then what happened? Tell me again, No, I forget,
I'm done. I'm done. I want to hear I'm retiring.
He rolled with my sumo story? Is if it was mine?
You are the sumo guy. Yeah, I'm the sumo guy,
Sumo Steve, they call me. Dana White has signed a
deal with Turkey Ala Chic, a new boxing league, promising
to make boxing great again. He didn't actually say that,

(27:59):
but that's sort of the deal. Best fight the best,
starting from the ground up, spreading the wealth out to
the fighters, bigger cards. These fighters get a chance to
move up the rank, so they get to build a career.
And it's the same UFC model that made the UFC
a success. That's what he's hoping to do can it

(28:20):
save boxing? If you're a hardcore UFC fan, because Dana
White's behind this a lot of funding and a lot
of money and a lot of big fights. Do you
now give boxing a chance because there's one belt. It's
not all this confusion, it's not all this corruption all right.
What's the other biggest criticism on boxing? Oh man, look

(28:42):
at that stupid decision last week. That was a standing
eight count. Roach won that fight. That's bs, that's just boxing,
boxing being boxing. Dana White has the power along with
Turkey Ala Sheik, who's really doing so much great for
the sport. I know people don't like some of this
and people buying fighters and things like that. We saw

(29:03):
it in GOLFL Like you said, Rich, but if he
could save the sport along with Dana White, does this
make you a fan? Do you stop saying stupid things
like boxing's done, or do you actually give it a shot.
I'm thinking this changes the habits, viewing habits, changes the
whole sport. I think this changes everything as a fight fan.
I know fight fans are excited. If I'm a primetime

(29:24):
fighter already, I have to be interested in Well, man,
there's gotta be a lot of money to be made here.
Do I want to go with Dana White in this league?

Speaker 2 (29:33):
Right? Like?

Speaker 1 (29:34):
This is gonna be eventually what matters? What is the
IBF belt, the WBO belt, WBA, WBC, It's all watered
down at this point. It'll be the UFC equivalent to boxing.
Does belt just look fancy? There's questions I have. I mean,
I think boxing is healthy. You go to an arena,

(29:54):
you see the purses they make you see it is,
but it's not structured. It's what it's not corrupt. What
you just said though, with the IBF, WBO, WBC, no
one really knows if you if I hear this, you know,
the average the average fan of sports could probably tell
you who the WWE champion is in a more clear
way than boxing, because one champion per weight division. That's

(30:17):
how it should be. UFC does that right Again, boxing
needs it's not dead. I'm a huge fan. It needs structure,
no corruption, it needs great leadership, it needs money, it
needs it needs a fair shot. We need the biggest fights.
That's what he's saying is gonna happen. I believe him
because he's proven he could do it. When Fury fought uhsick.
I feel like they both came in with like multiple belts,

(30:40):
and I'm like, how could that be? How could they
both be champions in the same weight class unless they
fight each other? Like, it never made sense to me.
I don't know if it was like that when our
parents are little kids. I know they just kept adding belt,
but it was probably more structured back then. But here's
my question. And I'm not saying Dan Bayer has the answer,
but Dan's a big golf fan. Dan Byer is the answer.

(31:00):
That's what I say. And by the way, the arrowhead dorito, Oh,
I gotta see it. He just texted it to you. Yeah,
don't oh yeah.

Speaker 4 (31:08):
And I found the the chicken tender.

Speaker 2 (31:11):
Wow, what is that?

Speaker 1 (31:12):
That's Italy is what it is? Is amazing. Absolutely, I
don't need to go to a museums, not even kidding. Right,
it looks like the chiefs logo.

Speaker 5 (31:23):
Put in a shadow box. Of course I ended it,
but hey, you could have auctioned that off.

Speaker 1 (31:27):
Of course that should have been in the museum next
across the cord.

Speaker 4 (31:31):
Imagine imagine how wasted that chip would have been if
it would have been a cool ranch like it needed
to be red with the cheese, But what was what
was your question.

Speaker 1 (31:39):
About the uh No, I was gonna say, you're a
big golf guy. And when Live came into the mix,
that did create a lot of controversy and golfers went
to Live or not the golfers that did, a lot
of people shun them. The PGA side of things, there
was a lot of contrasty. Yes, boxing boxing fans don't
seem to care where the money's coming from as long
as the fights happened. Boxing is more based on promotions.

(32:02):
Golden Boy top rank Jake Paul now has MVP, which
is a big one. So if it's based on promotions,
does the promotion have the ability to be like, yeah,
we could well, our fighters could fight with Chic or
they could fight with I hope. So because guys like
Golden Boy and De la Hoya already have good relationships
with this guy, right their fighters already fighting under this

(32:25):
dude's cards. So you know, we'll see how this works.
I'm not sure how that works, so let's the details
to come. But there's a lot of people like the
Bob Arams and the Oscar de la Hoyas and the
Ed Hearns and the Jake, Paul's all these guys behind
these promotions. If they're cut in, like, hey, yeah, your
promotional companies involved, but so is Chic and we're just
gonna make a ton of money. They're gonna cooperate. But

(32:49):
I don't know the inner workings. I just think it
makes boxing so much easier to understand, so much easier
to follow. If they're signing new people, you get to
get invested in these boxers from the ground up. I'm
sure there's gonna be a goofy TV show to tie
into this so you know their backstory and then you
end up falling in love with these fighters. Dana White
has done it before. This is gonna change the game.

(33:12):
Boxing will never be the same after this. Mark our
words here on the Covino and Rich Show. Boxing as
we know it as of today is gonna change. Moving
on all right, Well, hey, thanks for hanging with us,
Thanks for listening to my Pope story. Pope story was great.
It did look like Italy though the tender. You know what,
if you want to if you want to see if yourself,
Damn Bayer. If you don't mind, I'm gonna I'm gonna

(33:33):
post a picture of the Dorito and the chicken tender.
I'll tell you what on our Instagram story, all right, and.

Speaker 6 (33:38):
You got it.

Speaker 1 (33:38):
I'm gonna put it up on x I'll put both
of you. You put it up on X, I'll put up
on Instagram.

Speaker 2 (33:44):
Can you include your pope photo too?

Speaker 1 (33:46):
You know what, if there was one Danny, it would
be my profile picture. Are we ready to do it?
We do it every Wednesday. We call it mid Week Major.

Speaker 3 (34:00):
Coveno and Rich get you over the middle of the
week when mid Week Major Major.

Speaker 1 (34:06):
Oh, I love that. We throw sports and pop culture
headlines and topics at the fellas and it's like the kids.

Speaker 6 (34:13):
Say, that's summit. We definitely major.

Speaker 1 (34:17):
See it our scoring mid Week Major.

Speaker 3 (34:21):
I'm still gonna go fast here because if we go
to buyer on time Spotty, you'll get nine and a
half minutes.

Speaker 1 (34:26):
I don't know what to do with all that. More
like six seven all right.

Speaker 3 (34:31):
Before we hand things over to the number one and
only host of this segment, we like to roll the
two big red Love Dice in the main studio.

Speaker 1 (34:37):
My roll not a six, not a seven, but an eight.

Speaker 2 (34:41):
All right, a rich role.

Speaker 1 (34:43):
Now that's what the kids are saying. Nowadays Danny g
six seven.

Speaker 2 (34:46):
I saw it on TikTok? Did you get rich?

Speaker 1 (34:52):
Seven oh six? So it means that one, all.

Speaker 2 (34:57):
Right, So Covino gets first take.

Speaker 3 (34:59):
And now, ladies and gentlemen, the most famous person besides
Judy Bloom from Scotch Plains New Jersey spotty boy.

Speaker 1 (35:06):
How are you guys? Hey spot? What? Come on? All right?

Speaker 5 (35:12):
I'll start, thanks Sam, I'll start with the story hot
off the press. So TOPS has decided to commemorate Lebron's
legendary milestone with the one of one fifty thousand points card.
The card will feature an image of Lebron and the
fifty K logo, complete with not only the NBA Legends autograph,
but a piece of his arm sleeve wow from the

(35:34):
historic game which took place on Tuesday, where the Lakers
secured their seventh straight victory one thirty six to one
fifteen over the Pelicans. A lot of celebs were in
attendance last night to watch that game, including Leo DiCaprio
and if you also saw two Tops is having a week.
They released a John Cena Turned Heel card which will

(35:55):
also be making the rounds. But this card one of
one who knows how much we'll go for. Remember, the
Paul Skeen's Worky card was up on the auction block,
so we'll see how much this goes for Midweek or Major.

Speaker 1 (36:06):
Major. In every way, I love what Tops is doing.
I'm a kid that grew up collecting baseball cards. The
Paul Skins one was great. I don't like how they
handled it though. I think there was something fishy about
the random kid that got it. Never really saw the kid.
I don't like how that was handled. They got to
handle this one the right way. But I also think
that they're giving attention, much needed attention as something that

(36:28):
I feel fell under the radar a little bit. I
know Lebron is a bit polarizing, but what he's doing
with Luca now is insane. The la Luca's lighting it up,
and the fact that he's scored fifty thousand points. That's
not a bigger Story's ridiculous one of one. This is
huge props major story. Yeah, props to Tops. I can't disagree, honestly, Major.

(36:49):
I mean, it's Lebron James fifty thousand points. It's absurd.
A great night for the Lakers, a great season for
the Lakers. And for the lucky son of a gun
that gets that one. Think about what, like you say,
what schemes they were offered up for that? You don't
think Lebron or someone close name is gonna want that one.
But when you investigate that Skien story and the kid

(37:13):
in the card, it does get a little, uh, a
little sketchy, like, wait, so the kid vote one box?
Who's in the middle, you know, like it's just who's
the kid? They really got to cover this one properly.
Is a big deal. Oh oh and by the way,
just for the fun of it, if you you know,
I know, Rachel On, here's the difference. Paul Skeen stories
yet to be written. So it's hot right now, Lebron James,

(37:36):
we already know he's a great story's written. This is
a big card on our Instagram story. I did post
the the Italy Tender and the chiefs Dorito and you
could vote which one you think is more impressive. How
much is that going to hit the auction block for man?
I'd pay I'd pay something for that, all right? What
else fun?

Speaker 5 (37:55):
All right? Eagles GM Howie Roseman had a pretty colorful
analogy when it came to his two Super Bowl wins,
saying that the feeling of victory is a lot like sex.

Speaker 1 (38:06):
Let me explain.

Speaker 5 (38:07):
Roseveand chopped his analogy on the mcshag Show this week,
where he spoke about the team's recent victory over the Chiefs.

Speaker 1 (38:15):
Hit at Sam, So, I'd say, like the first ones
almost like can.

Speaker 6 (38:20):
I say this?

Speaker 1 (38:20):
Can we delete this?

Speaker 5 (38:21):
As is live?

Speaker 1 (38:22):
You don't know what I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (38:23):
You don't know.

Speaker 1 (38:25):
You can be It's almost like the first time you
have sex, you're so glad you had sex. It's not
even the quality of it.

Speaker 6 (38:30):
The second time.

Speaker 1 (38:32):
The second time it's like, wow, I could actually have
fun and enjoy this. There you go.

Speaker 5 (38:38):
So yeah, it's like the first time is like you're
breaking your v car. The second time you're actually living
in the moment, he said. The blowout win also allowed
the whole team to soak it in more this time around,
which wasn't the case when they took on the Patriots
back for Super Bowl fifty two. Midweek or major.

Speaker 1 (38:54):
It's it's sort of mid something that's major about is
this the GM that said that, yes, it's so off
color and weird for like, I can't imagine Brian Cashman
talking about like sex and being horny in Super Bowls.
Like what, it's just off color and weird coming from him. No,
that's just surprising about him. He's a cool young GM
who got hit in the head with a beer can

(39:15):
at the parade.

Speaker 5 (39:18):
For it.

Speaker 1 (39:18):
But are you used to hearing people relate that to
like having sex? But do you think Brian Cashman the
definition are cool? Then you got other problems. I don't
think theo Epstein when he was the coolest GM going,
would be talking like that. I think you're a nerd
and this is uh. I do think it is mid though,
but I know I know what you're saying.

Speaker 5 (39:38):
Anyone heard Howie Roseman speak before, because I didn't think
he had that high of a voice, So that added
to the weirdness.

Speaker 1 (39:44):
It was like, yes, it's like having sex for the
first time, you know, with a joy. That actually felt
weird to me as well. You say that if he
had like Danny Gene's voice and when it came across
middle but in the bedroom with say this guys league
no cards, and that would be like an R and
B radio station break right there. If Danny g said it.

(40:05):
Let me, I don't know if fuch to say it, but.

Speaker 5 (40:08):
Let's stick with a quick little super Bowl side. Travis
Kelsey still wallowing in his Super Bowl loss, but is
acknowledging the obvious lack of focus that we all saw
during the game against the Eagles. He said he feels
like he owes the guys that he comes into the
building with a whole lot more effort in focus. He said,
I didn't know what it was during the game. I
wasn't at my best, say telling his brother every time

(40:30):
he sees a clip that throws him back and he's like,
what the f His brother, Jason told him not to
overanalyze the situation, but he says he uses it at
his motivation to quote create the Beast. Kelsey has also
commented on saying that he'll use it his motivation in
the offseason, get a few extra wraps, work a bit harder,
watch him extra film to improve his game. Also spoke

(40:52):
about saying, you know the fact that he's not retiring
and his reasoning saying he loves to play football, still
feels like he can perform at a high level and
hopes to that help form higher than he did last year,
not this year, last year.

Speaker 1 (41:03):
Mideker major. It's major because everything Kelsey related is major.
But if you couldn't get fired up in the Super
Bowl this year, and I don't simply block when you
know the world is watching, what was sort of go
Go juice A you're gonna discover in the offseason to
get you fired up again, I don't get it. I

(41:25):
just don't see how that happens. I think it's major.
But I could understand. I mean, one of your favorite
movies of all time, Rocky, the whole Rocky series. You know,
after a little while he got a little complacent and uh,
you know he took clubber Lang a little light, Mickey died,
and you know, Rocky had a refocus, and you know,

(41:47):
sometimes when victory seems to come a little too easy
and the Chiefs have had, you know, a really good stretch.
I could see where you're like, oh, well, well hold on,
I need to get that eye of the tiger back.
So you know what, Hey, maybe run it back and
see if you can do it one more time.

Speaker 5 (42:00):
Well, Kelsey, as you know, making an appearance in the
upcoming Happy Gilmore Too, alongside Adam Sandler, will be much
anticipated sequel almost thirty years in the making, has now
been given an official release date. It's hot off the
press as well, so the summer will or the release
will have a Midsummer appearance on Netflix July twenty fifth.

(42:21):
As you know Adam Sandler of course reprising his role
as Happy Gilmore. You have Christop McDonald coming back as
shoot Au, Ben Stiller making the appearance, a lot of
cameos from professional golf players as well, and of course
other athletes from other realms.

Speaker 1 (42:37):
Midweek or Major Major in July, right July. What do
we know? Oh, it happens to also be Neudi magazine
Day Perfect. I am so pumpedible to day after my birthday.
So absolutely it's a movie we all watch. We all
love to see where it goes. To see this character
again on Netflix, you only have to go out and

(42:58):
watch Perfect Major. I think it's major. Dare I say?
I want to be shocked if it's one of Netflix's
more successful domestic releases. Ever, who's not gonna watch Happy
Gilmore too? The Sandman always does well on those movies.
Plus you're adding all the cameos. It's a sequel to
a legendary movie. I would have be shocked if it's

(43:20):
a top five ever for new something that we watch
and we're left feeling flat about it, like, uh, like
remember when they did Dumb and Dumber again and we
liked it, but you know it's like you're trying to
recapture that magic here. Well, Dan Byer, I know you're
a big golf guy. Did you see that you can
now be Shooter McGavin on PGA t K I did.

Speaker 4 (43:42):
I don't have I don't have a PS five, I
don't have the game, but I did see that. I
think he's quite popular. Like that's also another reason why
you're seeing, Yeah, serge.

Speaker 1 (43:52):
Dude, if you could be shooter Shooter on a video
game now too. It's just that Adam Saylor and I
say this respectfully, love them. A lot of his stuff nowadays,
the newer stuff, it's hit or miss right, Like sometimes
like oh, okay, I see that old Sandler magic that
that was goofy and funny, and then some other things
he goes for and it's flat and awkward and you're like, oh,

(44:13):
and I don't want that for this. Philm you know,
hoping for good stuff. He was great on the SNL fiftieth.
He had a great appearance at the Oscars so he's
on a hot streak, coy, and I'm going to keep going.

Speaker 2 (44:23):
All right.

Speaker 5 (44:24):
Do you want to hear about terrorists affecting the NHL
or you want to hear about a nasty hot dog?
Nasty hot dog? Yes, a nasty hot dog. All right,
Michigan Summer League. It's getting a lot of buzz for
a new concession item that sounds gross, but who knows,
might be good. The Kalamazoo Growlers announced their latest concoction
on their Instagram page. It's a hot dog called the
scat Dog, and yes it's what you think it is,

(44:45):
which will be available during Saturday games only. The scat
Dog is a thousand calorie hot dog topped with whipped
cream sprinkles, a Maraschino cherry and served on a custom
chocolate cake donut.

Speaker 1 (44:59):
There goal is.

Speaker 5 (45:00):
The scat Dog is a tribute to the black Bears
that could be heard.

Speaker 1 (45:03):
Growling in the forest of Michigan.

Speaker 5 (45:05):
Michigan also spelled s K A s K a T,
with the K stating for strikeouts in baseball. There you go,
There you go. The hot dog will cost ten dollars
mid Week or Major This is a mid story. It's gross.

Speaker 1 (45:16):
It's like four year old could have talked about tariffs
and I want hot dog cream a hot dog. This
is Rich when when he was in the Little League?
Is name last week? Yeah, this is Rich? Has you
know for breakfast with his kids? Snackscheck. I think this
is ridiculous, but on a funner note, more fun funner funner,

(45:37):
Funner funnier.

Speaker 2 (45:37):
On his funner note.

Speaker 1 (45:38):
Have you ever seen what the scatman looked like? Beat
up up both look him up. He's like an eighty
five year old guy. Well, with that said, to me,
it sounds like the best thing since Elf put a
seerpun spaghetti. Let's go to damn Buyer for an update. dB.

Speaker 4 (45:53):
I always thought the Adam Saler movie Click was appropriately
named because when it's on I click.

Speaker 6 (45:58):
You know.

Speaker 1 (46:01):
He's not a fan. Hassle Hoffey. Remember the quarter Big Daddy,
different story, Big Daddy was on the other day. But
your five year plan till it die, that's what you

(46:26):
were doing earlier in the show. Sam, It's too soon, bro.
Sam's on the ones and twos. But Danny G super producing,
Danny G just super everywhere he goes Mike kissing as
eight seven seven ninety nine out Fox he does a
great job. And Rich he could vote. Now if you
go to our instagram at Covine and Rich, what's more impressive?

(46:48):
Dan Buyer's chicken tender or dorito? That's that was the
hot topic today. But hey, we had a lot of
fun today. We're gonna tell you Angel Reese in a
second and Kevin Durant. But we were just looking at
pictures on social media. It must be wild to be
single these days, and what someone pretends to look like

(47:10):
on a dating app versus real life. Every single friend
you have talks about the nightmare of like wow, I thought,
you know, I thought she was hot. Oh my god,
he looked like a stud. And then they show up
and it's like, wooo, that's you. I can only imagine,

talk about it, man, Kevin Durant and Angel Reese? Is
this really a thing? I was walking down the cereal

(48:22):
aisle just the other day getting my kids some fruity pebbles,
and right next to the fruity pebbles and cocoa crispies
and all the stuff there, it was the Angel Reese Puffs.
Me wasn't, dude. I mean, I think that's cooler than
being on a Wheaties box. She's branded better Cereal, the
Reese's Puffs on a weekies box. Wikies with Rich Davis WEEKI, Hey,

(48:48):

You made a T shirt and that we sell a
covie don't Rich check out. But it's a picture of
me swinging a baseball bat and it says WEEKI like
those you sold like one hundred thousand. I'm gonna get one.
There's When we were kids, they used to have these
stickers and they were like fake, like fake like parodied

(49:10):
food items and things like that. Instead of whaedies, it
was weakies. Took a picture of me swinging a baseball bat. Yeah,
and he's like, this is funny and it's weakies. And
if you go to Covini on rich dot com you
can actually buy a T shirt of me as Wikies.

Speaker 2 (49:28):
Free.

Speaker 1 (49:29):
By the way, wikis the Breakfast of Lamos anyway. And
then when I work with these guys volatility every day,
so they've been seen in public attending other basketball games
Breakfast Lamas, I hate you. Angel Reese was asked if
you could pick any NBA player to do a co
ed league with, who would it be, and she said

(49:50):
Kevin Durant.

Speaker 2 (49:51):
Uh.

Speaker 1 (49:51):
And just yesterday, prior to the game, Kevin Durant was asked,
you know, what female do you want to shout out
for women in Power Month? Or who do you think
is the best w NBA player or something like that.
He was asked something along those lines, and of course
he brought up Angel Reese. Is this like one of
those like is it like one of these like terribly
kept secrets and it's I think it's become that sort

(50:12):
of thing. But I just think it's a great couple.
Like I love it so cool in school, you would
touch the girl so obviously, yeah, duck duck, duck goose. Yeah,
Like who's the goose? The girl you have a crush on.
I think this is great. You know, in a world
of where people are just a bunch of haters and
they hate on everything, how could you hate on two

(50:34):
elite athletes that love basketball, that are passionate. And I
feel like, I feel like Kevin Durant needs a good woman,
I do right, Like if you've seen him being interviewed
on David Letterman or just recently he was crying about
what the Olympics meant to him, there seems to be
a deeper, sweeter side to Kevin Durant.

Speaker 5 (50:52):
When have you ever seen Kevin Durant date anybody what
I mean, He's kind of a He's kind of an
enigma for.

Speaker 1 (50:56):
Real, Like I don't think I think of him as
a basketball machine, a school owing machine, not necessarily like
this romantic guy has any time for love in his life.
And if this is like the next chapter of him,
I think he's earned it and I'm happy for him.
And I think they're a great couple. I really am.
I wanted you to think, I think it's kind of cool.
I wanted you to think of the reality of the situation.
If they were indeed a couple. Are they the most

(51:20):
athletic couple out there right now? What would you say? Well,
Andre Agassi and Stephie Graft just want a pat pickleball competition.
Recently I saw that that you gotta go with them. No,
but they're still doing it. Simon they won a pickleball
tournament like two weeks ago on ESPN. I mean, Simone Biles,

(51:41):
who's their husband again? A place for Chicago, Yeah yeah, Owens,
you got to put them up there. Just the fact
that he's in the NFL, but the fact that you
couldn't even think of his name, I shows you that
Kevin Durant and Angel Rees have to be up there
if not Number one. Jonathan Owens Jonathan, Yeah, safety, you

(52:02):
gotta guarantee their kids going to be in the NBA
if they were to last and stick together. My only
I guess question here is, like Iosam alluded to, I
don't know. I'm sure Kevin Durant had relationships, but I've
never seen him in a long term relationship. I hope
he doesn't ruin this relationship because he doesn't have a
lot of serious experience in this department. I mean, you know,

(52:23):
every time there's a couple, it's not necessarily athletic, like
Sierra and Russell Wilson, Giselle and Tom, Kate Upton and Verlander,
I mean, Gabrielle Union in, Dwayne Wade, j Lo and
a Rod. It's usually like one star and an athlete,
but a number one. Think about it. We'll see you
guys tomorrow. I'll read it there you baby, see you
in the Promised Land. Give brebye, guys,
