Speaker 4 (12:51):
Rob was great man, And thank you dB, thank you
Fox Sports Radio Nation. I want to thank my mother.
I want to thank everyone listening for always believing. He
always believing in me, and thank you Iowa Sam for
rooting me on absolutely. But you know what he deserves,
this wo get because rad on removal is very important.

Speaker 2 (13:07):
Yes, yeah it is. It's very important.

Speaker 4 (13:11):
Now, Mike who runs this place tells the story. Who
Mike who runs his place? He played sports growing up.
I know it's hard to believe, but he said he
was hitting gets, throwing balls into his neighbor's yard. He
said his neighbor would go like great lengths to really.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
Get to these kids.

Speaker 4 (13:30):
They would cut He would cut their balls in half
with a chainsaw. He says they never knew with what
sounds like a plot line, not sandlot. He said he
would tole it back half of baseball to them, like
he's like, this guy must have books. Stay out of
my way. Man.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
That's some grumpy old man, I know.

Speaker 1 (13:47):
Like in rialto California, when I was a little little kid,
my older brother would throw the football sometimes over the
neighbor's fence, and she, she was a mean lady. She said,
any balls you throw over here, given to my dog
and his doghouse.

Speaker 2 (14:02):
So we'd see the dog chewing.

Speaker 4 (14:03):
On our nerve foot of the sandlot. Yeah, imagine that nowadays.
Why didn't you just come knock on my door?

Speaker 3 (14:08):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (14:09):
No, mom would stand for that. Imagine a mom in
twenty twenty five. They'd go to the neighbor like, you
have my child's ball, give it back immediately, Like there's
no way the neighbor would keep the ball.

Speaker 2 (14:18):
However, it's twelve ninety nine.

Speaker 4 (14:19):
At Target, there were Hey, what if kid hits your
car with some whiffleballs?

Speaker 2 (14:24):
How you feel about that?

Speaker 4 (14:24):
It's cost of business if it's in the street whiffle
ball to do damage to a car. You will not
be pumped if you show the neighbor kids having a
home run derby and your car is in the vicinity
used to hit golf balls bats.

Speaker 2 (14:37):
You were just hitting wherever, you know.

Speaker 4 (14:39):
My wife the other day, my kids are I'm throwing
them whiffleballs on the front lawn. They're hitting whiffleballs with
their aluminum Little League Baseball bats. Whiffleballs. Right, My wife
is concerned because, like there's a couple of cars parked
on the street like houses away. I'm like, if our
kid hits the ball there, you have awful confidence our
kid to go to hit it all way. And if

(15:00):
that's the case, if your car's parked in the street
in a neighborhood, you should be happy. The kids are
outside playing wiffleball. Whofotball is not gonna do anything. That's
the thing too, right, And I bet that's where dan
byers a little torn. It's nice to see kids being kids.
It's nice to see teenagers playing a pickup that's their argument, right,
It's nice to see kids outside not on their tablet.
So you don't want to discourage them and be the

(15:22):
grumpy guy, because we've dealt with that growing up. But
there has to be a level of respect. And I
think that's the point of this conversation. And Dan I
think you hit the nail on the head ten o'clock
is like more than generous, way more.

Speaker 2 (15:34):
That's what I thought as well.

Speaker 4 (15:35):
Without a doubt, and honestly, not to start trouble in
your neighborhood. I think you got to stand firm on that.
Otherwise they're just taking advantage of your kindness.

Speaker 6 (15:43):
That's the that's the issue now is it's a it's
a tell you what they We had a different neighbor
because they put a pick a ball court in the
middle of our cul de sac, and so another neighbor
called them, sounds fun, man, you'll play some sports over there. Yeah,
But the other another neighbor then got mad at them,
and they called the hoa and the hoa like a

(16:05):
couple of days later, like they put lines down and everything,
all of a sudden, there's a street crew that shows up.

Speaker 2 (16:10):
What yeah, yeah, so.

Speaker 4 (16:12):
It's in La Fitness. It was, you know, like you
kind of drive around the pickleball court.

Speaker 6 (16:21):
Like the net like if you were coming home again,
We're at five o'clock, so the net was basically three
to nine when when we were playing, they did move
it and then we'd pull in and drive. But it
was it was a different neighbor. The neighbor at nine o'clock.
That's like, I'm up. I haven't talked to him about it,
but he told them like, you guys almost hit my

(16:41):
car and I almost hit you guys.

Speaker 4 (16:43):
Man. Neighborhood sports rules the local teens and Dan's cul
de sac. He's keeping up his kid and they're playing
into the late hours of the night. I think one
of the points we made be could you know also
was your perspective changes over the years. Definitely, Like I
used to think my neighbor was a jerk for putting
a sprinkler on when we played tackle football on his lawn,
and I'm like, what a mean guy. I'm like, he

(17:04):
just didn't He probably spent a lot of money at
his beautiful lawn, and he's like, these kids are not
playing football my lawn. Like, looking back, maybe Vinnie wasn't
such a bad guy after all.

Speaker 6 (17:14):
He just wanted to manicure his lawn that so many
of us now do these days.

Speaker 4 (17:18):
Exactly, let's wrap it up. Neighborhood sports didn't deter you
guys from playing. You were just getting hit with water
and you were like, hey, no, I looked at his
football exactly eighty seven, seven ninety nine on Fox at
Covino and Rich, who do we got Rich.

Speaker 2 (17:33):
Let's go to Mike and Minnesota. Hey, Mike, you're on
the show.

Speaker 14 (17:37):
Hey, So it's funny I live in a Call to
Sack with like all the original owners from the mid nineties,
like from when I was a kid, and now my
kids playing Call the Sack baseball in the in the
in the yard, and all his buddies are over. And
I've had multiple parents in the neighborhood say like it's
such a joy seeing that this new generation of kids

(17:58):
doing exactly what kids did back in the day.

Speaker 4 (18:02):
Dam Bayer said, go inside and play roadblocks and get
on your head. But you're right, it's like it's bringing
life back to the neighborhood.

Speaker 2 (18:10):
Right. But Mike, Mike said, there is one you said,
there's one complaint.

Speaker 14 (18:14):
Though there'sh So the complaint that comes out, it's like
it's a civility thing. So like there's this one kid
he's basically o'doyle and uh and and so the neighbor
across the street, right, and so the lady comes up
across the street, comes up to me, she goes, I
really am am enjoying watching these kids doing this. But

(18:35):
there's one kid he's just constantly using bad language and swearing,
and I go, yeah, I think I know who it is.

Speaker 7 (18:42):
You know.

Speaker 14 (18:42):
And then you got to have that conversation with the
dad where he was kind of like, hey, man, like
if he's going to come over, he's really got to
keep it down. He cannot be swearing or like bullying
and like, you know, you know, pushing kids around because
he's older, he's bigger, he's what he is, o'doyle.

Speaker 2 (18:57):
And then he pushed you and said, o'doyle rules, right, rule?
How late do you think is late? Yeah, Mike, what's
what's too late for you?

Speaker 15 (19:05):
Wow?

Speaker 7 (19:06):
It's interesting.

Speaker 14 (19:06):
So, I mean in Minnesota it gets pretty dark at
seven o'clock. So like in my opinion, like you know,
it's not necessarily how dark it is or anything like that,
but I think ten o'clock is probably a good time.

Speaker 2 (19:21):
Dude. That's generous, it really is. That's more than safe
to say.

Speaker 4 (19:24):
By ten pm it's completely dark out all across the
US unless you're in like Alaska, swat so down.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
If it's dark, the street lights are out.

Speaker 4 (19:31):
But like in the summertime, it's a light out like
in the Midwest, till after nine I think.

Speaker 1 (19:35):
A good rule of thumb, Yeah, don't bother people after
nine pm.

Speaker 4 (19:38):
And by the way, uh, I don't want to dive
into this story, but there was an o'doyle in my neighborhood.
It was this fat Greek kid and he would just
like bully everybody. But he was a lot older than us. Right,
Let's say I was like ten, he was like thirteen fourteen. Right,
I'm like nine years old barely. This kid would push
us around, tease us. My mom came out with a

(20:01):
whiffleball bat. True story, so this is sports related. I
forget to bring it up. She beat his ass all
the way down the street with a whiffleball bat.

Speaker 2 (20:10):
Stuff like that.

Speaker 4 (20:11):
Yeah, my mom stuff because he she saw him, like
push me onto the grass or something, you would. He
went running down welted with wiffleball bat and do yeah,
oh Doyle never bothered me again.

Speaker 10 (20:25):
Doyle rules.

Speaker 3 (20:26):
You know.

Speaker 4 (20:26):
That's a true story. Neighborhood sports. Speaking about this, I'll
throw this quick story in the only time I ever
started a physical fight in my life. We're playing tackle football.
You know, when you try to get more kids to play.
My brother's four and a half years younger than me.
So let's say I was like thirteen, my brother was
like nine. There was always that in the name, and
so like, yo, my brother, Jimmy, Jimmy, let's play.

Speaker 2 (20:49):
You need an extra guy. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (20:50):
One kid kept tackling my little brother really hard, and
I'm like, I'm like, dude, he's nine, like.

Speaker 2 (20:57):
Little Jimmy o' doyle.

Speaker 4 (20:58):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (20:59):
No.

Speaker 4 (20:59):
I was like, why why are you bothering my brother?
He's nine, He's here is the extra guy. And I
was like, just don't tackle him hard anymore. He's nine,
we're all thirteen, because yeah, all right, whatever. He tackled
my brother hard one more time. I went up to him.
I sucker punched him in the gut. I pushed him
to the floor, and I just jumped on top of
him like I.

Speaker 12 (21:20):
Just kept.

Speaker 4 (21:23):
The only time I ever started the fight. Rich actually
invented mixed martial arts. A lot of people know that
the ground true story, true story.

Speaker 2 (21:32):
All right.

Speaker 4 (21:32):
I want to go to Alaska and say how to Matt,
what's up Matt?

Speaker 9 (21:36):
What's going on?

Speaker 8 (21:37):
Guys? How are we doing today?

Speaker 4 (21:37):
We're good? What's up?

Speaker 8 (21:39):
Good? Hey?

Speaker 9 (21:40):
So, uh, maybe I'm a little old school, but you
guys kind of touched on a little bit.

Speaker 8 (21:44):
Back in the day.

Speaker 9 (21:44):
You know, things were things were different. Now everybody wants
to uh you know see everybody kid comes over place
in your yard, even when you got cameras inside. No
Johnny ran into the side of the truck. You know,
it's not it's not our fault. But when it comes
to the street, I think the streets open game. If
you want to park your car out there, Uh, that's
public property and kids, that's where that's where, you know,

(22:06):
the neighborhood kids should playing unless you're the one that
got the won. And when it comes to farm animals, unfortunate.
Where I live, we got kind of bigger lots and
our neighbor does have a couple of roosters and uh,
you know there's no rules on when those roosters are
going to crack office.

Speaker 4 (22:21):
Dude, Hold on. There was a show wait was it
This Fool? This Fool on Hulu? Yeah, which is a
great show. It got canceled unfortunately, such a good show.
Props everybody involved. Is a really fun show and it
was based out of East La.

Speaker 8 (22:34):
There.

Speaker 2 (22:34):
Yeah, oh I saw the show.

Speaker 4 (22:36):
I remember the guy. They were. They hated the neighbor
who had the rooster every morning, what at five am
or six almost like when the birds start shirping it's
still dark out.

Speaker 2 (22:45):
You're like, damn birds.

Speaker 4 (22:46):
But you're like, they're birds.

Speaker 2 (22:47):
They can't you can't control them.

Speaker 4 (22:49):
Yeah, but if you're next to our neighbor, I wos say,
I'm kind a rooster, I don't think you'd be pleased.
Ah yeah, Yeah, it takes some adjustment. Let's say, I
how to Clint in Vegas? What's up? Clint Man?

Speaker 2 (22:59):
What's up?

Speaker 12 (22:59):
Man?

Speaker 7 (23:00):
So?

Speaker 16 (23:01):
Uh, A couple of neighbors down for me. They said
he had a farm here in Vegas, and he had
a big old open grass area. So we speak on
his property and play baseball. I mean he'd get off
my lug, get out of here, you know, you do
all that stuff. One day he shot me with salt rock.
I don't know if you know.

Speaker 8 (23:21):
What that is.

Speaker 4 (23:21):
No, like an air like an airsoft gun.

Speaker 16 (23:26):
No, it's a it's a shotgun round, but instead of lead,
it's filled with salt.

Speaker 4 (23:32):
There's like a bug shoot a bug gun. You can
get like that air compressed.

Speaker 16 (23:36):
But imagine imagine a twelve game.

Speaker 2 (23:38):
But yes, a shot.

Speaker 4 (23:39):
No imagine nowadays that happened that. Imagine someone shoots your
kid with any type of init whatever. Jeez, you know,
shout out? Can we all shout out? One nice person
in her neighborhood growing up? They're all gone now. But
missus Hanson was this old lady that wanted us to
play by her house. Was her kids were all grown right,
so she peeked out the window and watched it play
whiffle ball and wave maybe even off for you some

(24:00):
you like you like some water? And I remember being like, yo,
if everyone was like missus, handy a little strawberry candy?
You know those hands those mystery candies that old people
have with the strawberry wrapper.

Speaker 2 (24:12):
Where do you find those?

Speaker 4 (24:14):
I think old people by all? I You know what
if you if you're curious where all people get their candy?
I figured it out, get at it? Should I give
away the mystery? Where I recently went to the dollar tree? Yeah,
Tootsie rolls, those strawberry candies, those orange peanuts, like, no
every old person candy Dollar Tree?

Speaker 2 (24:33):
Wow?

Speaker 4 (24:34):
All right, well Clinton has a little more to that story.
Wrap it up with Clint. He has more to the story.
What up, Clint, So I.

Speaker 16 (24:41):
Wrap it up. I tricking went home and my dad's like,
what happened to you? And I was like, mister temper
shot me with a freaking shotgun.

Speaker 17 (24:49):
And he goes, yeah, you.

Speaker 4 (24:54):
Get You'll learn your lesson, son. That's the difference between
parents nowadays versus like and I was younger, my parents
would blame me first, and then they'd inquire like, oh,
were you to blame Okay, if you were, then kind
of had it common neighborhood sports rules? Alan, want to
wrap it? It is nice to see kids playing that,
no no doubt, and you know it's uh, dude, kids

(25:15):
play now as much as they ever did, but they
just play in overpriced traveling organized sports. Alan, what's up? Man?

Speaker 17 (25:22):
Hello you guys, great show.

Speaker 4 (25:24):
Thanks man.

Speaker 17 (25:25):
Hey, I gotta tell you I'm seventy years old, so
I know old school. But I have two comments and
i'll let you guys get to it. First comment is,
I've seen this neighborhood stuff go on, and everything changes.

Speaker 8 (25:38):
If you have a.

Speaker 17 (25:39):
Perfect neighborhood party in your auditioning out beer and wine
coolers for the women, those rules will change. And then
my second comment is, and I've told my wife this.
She likes your show too. I'm convinced you guys are
sociology professors pretending to be slow.

Speaker 4 (25:59):
Well, I want to hear the rest of that. We're
sociology professors.

Speaker 2 (26:03):
Compliment got interrupted.

Speaker 4 (26:05):
I want to know my god, he was about to
say something awes tending to I was gonna add that
to my bio. He just went through like a tunnel
or something.

Speaker 2 (26:12):
Yeah, Alan, you're still there. Yeah you lost him.

Speaker 4 (26:15):
Man.

Speaker 2 (26:16):
So theology professors.

Speaker 4 (26:18):
Ready like radio radio, like we're so tapped into the mind.

Speaker 2 (26:22):
Yeah something. By the way he said, he sounds like
he was drinking wine.

Speaker 4 (26:25):
He sounded like he was the youngest seventy year old
I ever heard.

Speaker 2 (26:27):
I thought that too.

Speaker 4 (26:28):
And you know, a kid drop off this morning, I
thought seventy year old guys were like, let me tell you, guys,
I really love the show. My dad seven. So your
dad's seventy. Yeah, my dad's like, hey, how would your
dad say it? Yeah? He got he got kiss off.
So I was talking to a couple of the dads
that drop off at the school this morning, and we

(26:50):
happen to be reminiscing about this. So it's coincidence that
you're talking about it, well, Dan's and a he's in
he's got he's in a bind. But we were talking
about how kids are as active as ever before, but
gone of the days. It is refreshing when you see
those neighborhood kids because where you spent a lot of
your time playing whiffle ball, you had that adjustable backboard,
you know, the slam dunk rim, where you were playing

(27:12):
street football, where the curbs with the sidelines, those things
have all been replaced by overboard organized sports where every
kid's playing travel soccer, travel basketball, across flag football. Like
every kids are as active as ever, but it's now
all under the guys of organized playtime. Playtime does not
last as long.

Speaker 2 (27:32):
And that's the thing. I have no problem with any
of it. It's actually the time that it's happening, you know.
That's that's the whole deal. That's awesome that they're out
there playing basketball. Could we have done this three hours earlier.

Speaker 4 (27:42):
I'm gonna do. I'm gonna I'm gonna cut to your
house with a Bluetooth speaker at ten ten pm and
a lot.

Speaker 1 (27:47):
I feel like for after hours, dB, you should give
them an indoor nerf hoop to put on their bedroom door.

Speaker 2 (27:53):
Right, Yeah, maybe that's inside passive aggressive.

Speaker 4 (27:57):
Here's the nerve, hope, go inside. All right, we do
need the dude, damn. The truth is you got to
catch these teenagers with like weed or alcohol and blackmail
them and be like, yeah, listen, guess who's not going
to tell your dad? Dang, you're pal damn Bayer. But
you know what, you're not going to do bother me
after ten pm.

Speaker 6 (28:14):
The worst part is that I wish, No, I don't
wish that they were, but you're talking about bad kids.
These are the greatest kids in the world. So that's
why you're just like, so you could put man, no,
I don't want.

Speaker 4 (28:24):
To plant weed if they have a hoodie.

Speaker 2 (28:27):
If they have a hoodie, this can't do it.

Speaker 4 (28:29):
Can't do it, plant it. Well, it's nice to know
they are good kids. So I'm excited to hear the
conclusion of the Yeah.

Speaker 2 (28:38):
We just out here.

Speaker 4 (28:39):
You need to get go up a level with those drugs.
Some I found some cocaine and no, now we're going overboard.

Speaker 2 (28:45):
Really scared. If I was on the richest neighbors.

Speaker 4 (28:48):
I know, yeah, mess with me. I'll plant some stuff
on your kids. Mid major let's go.

Speaker 15 (28:57):
Covino and Rich get you over the love the week
when mid Week Major Major, Oh, I love that. We
throw sports and pop culture headlines and topics at the
fellas and it's like the kids.

Speaker 10 (29:10):
Say, that's summit.

Speaker 14 (29:12):
We definitely leader see it.

Speaker 15 (29:14):
Are scoring mid Week Major.

Speaker 2 (29:18):
I'm gonna go fast. We give Spotty eight full minutes anymore.

Speaker 1 (29:22):
And 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 2 (29:31):
What you get Kvino?

Speaker 4 (29:33):
Yeah, eleven all right, and now a origen Worth rowing.

Speaker 2 (29:38):
This is to see who gets first take.

Speaker 4 (29:40):
It's called a ritual. I got a one on the
first dice. I'm not even rolling the other.

Speaker 2 (29:45):
Night's job, Ashley. All right, Covino gets to go first.

Speaker 1 (29:47):
And now, ladies and gentlemen, the most famous person besides
Judy Bloom from Scotch Plains New Jersey Spotty Boy.

Speaker 5 (29:55):
Guys, that's to pritt in And since you give me
no time. Kendrick Lawas halftime show, as we know, has
been one of the most watched shows in history, with
wapping one hundred and thirty three point five million people. Viewing,
but of course not without some criticism, criticism and complaints
from viewers. Official tally is in on FCC complaints, totaling
one hundred and twenty five complaints. A lot of the

(30:15):
complaints had to do with the usage of the red, white,
and blue representation of the flag, some crotch grabbing gestures.
At least ten complaints had to do with him using
the platform to go after Drake, claiming it was a
personal vendetta. Some had to do with Serena Williams dancing
as a gang affiliation. In comparison, just so you know,
Rihanna's show last year had just over one hundred complaints,

(30:38):
while Jalo and Shakira had over thirteen hundred.

Speaker 4 (30:41):
Coolies not that crazy, midweek or major. I think it's
a mid story. When you factor in one hundred and
thirty three point five million tuned in most ever, and
you only.

Speaker 2 (30:52):
Got one hundred and twenty five complaints, Is that like
points that's not said?

Speaker 4 (30:56):
Yeah, I mean when you factor in that many more
people were watching, plus PEP and today's culture just love
to complain. Anyway, have you been on social media? A
bunch of Darren's and Karen just complaining all the time.
I thought it was how many of them do you
figure actually named Karen Coincidentally, I think what you think
one of the one twenty five is a Karen's. I'm
actually surprised it's not more. Yeah, I'm with you. I
think it's a mid story. People will complain about anything,

(31:19):
and what really can you complain about? And who cares?
Just think that's how many people those people are. Definitely
can I talk to the manager on a regular Yeah.
They all have that Johnny Resnick Karen haircut.

Speaker 2 (31:29):
That's funny, all right.

Speaker 5 (31:30):
Lebart Lebron finally addressing his viral confrontation with ESPN host
stephen A. Smith while appearing on the Pat McAfee show
earlier today, he spoke about the incident, saying it's not
necessarily about stephen A criticizing, which is his job, but
when he makes it personal, he said, when you take
it and make it personal, it's my job to not
only protect my household but the players. Specifically referenced Smith

(31:53):
criticizing Browny and when he saw him on the court,
he was saying, stop talking stuff about my son.

Speaker 2 (32:00):
That's my son, that's my son. Leave him out of it.

Speaker 5 (32:02):
Even made like a Taylor Swift joke that he's on
a Tailor Swift tour right now talking about this incident
speaking about steven A.

Speaker 2 (32:08):
So midwek er major.

Speaker 4 (32:09):
Major because it was a big national story we also
played out on the court, and it's fun to see
Lebron's side of things. But you know what he did,
He gave steven A exactly why he wanted again more
things to talk about. The fact that Lebron James is
talking about steven A again on a public platform, on
a big show like that.

Speaker 2 (32:30):
Just just feeds into what steven A is all about.

Speaker 4 (32:34):
He loves that. I think it's major because it's the biggest,
one of the biggest sports personalities and one of the
biggest sports media members. And again, steven A loves it.
And Lebron pointed that out, saying that he could picture
steven A eating ice cream in his tidy white. He's
getting all excited about this because you know what, You're right,
I love him. Lebron's like he made it seem like

(32:54):
I didn't want to address this, Like come on, of
course you were itching to address it. So I mean,
I do agree with the point though, that you shouldn't
make it personal, but Lebron makes it hard not to
when he involves in his family into the game, right.
I mean, it's a very unique situation because you are
talking basketball, but you're also talking about us.

Speaker 2 (33:15):
So all right.

Speaker 5 (33:17):
W A star Nafisa Collier isn't thrilled about the upcoming
WNBA season coverage and is setting her sights on none
other than Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever. So the
TV schedule for the twenty twenty five season. Twenty twenty
five season has been revealed, and the Fever are set
to have forty one of their forty four games being
televised or streaming, in comparison to the last season champion,

(33:40):
the New York Liberty, who only have thirty two of
their games being televised nationally. Colliers on the Links, who
lost to the Liberty last season, just questioning why this
spotlight isn't being shown on other WNBA stars. Of course,
she fully acknowledges how Clark has attention. She drew attention
to the WNBA said, there are stars all over the league,

(34:01):
and if you want to watch good basketball, you have
to feature the other teams. Not trying to take away
from the fever, but lift up the other teams Midweek.

Speaker 4 (34:09):
Or Majorum, it's a major story because people are going
to talk about it. Anything Caitlyn Clark related is major.
But guess what you know who's not Major Collier. Unfortunately,
the Liberty, even though they won the links, no one
cares about that as much as they care about Kaitlyn Clark.
That's the bottom line. She is the reason that anybody cares.

(34:29):
Right now, I'd rather watch a YouTube video of someone
making sausage links then watch the Minnesota link.

Speaker 2 (34:37):
I mean, I think that's pretty fair, right.

Speaker 4 (34:39):
If Caitlyn Clark is getting forty one or forty four
games aired and the Liberty who won are getting thirty two,
still a decent amount of games.

Speaker 2 (34:48):
I mean, I'm actually surprised they're getting thirty two games.

Speaker 4 (34:51):
You know, take it easy, ladies, because I remember when,
like Angel Reese was like, maybe we should strike. If
they strike, you're never gonna see the NBAWNBA again.

Speaker 2 (34:58):
She abe relax.

Speaker 4 (35:00):
I agree with him. That's the one thing Antonio Brown
said that wasn't crazy. Listen thirty two games televised, that's big.
I would say that's an improvement. Caylen Clark's a star.
We'll see what the rating show. I bet you can
find sausage link videos that have more.

Speaker 2 (35:16):
Probably, honestly, you probably could.

Speaker 4 (35:18):
Let's see.

Speaker 5 (35:19):
The twenty twenty four World Series champion Dodgers have officially
accepted their invite to the White House and we'll officially
take place on April seventh, when they're in DC to
play the Nationals. Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said it's certainly
a huge honor to get the invitation to the White House,
respects the position of the president. Says it's the highest
in the country, certainly in the world, so they're looking

(35:39):
forward to it. No official word on who from the
team will be intendant in attendance, but Roberts did get
some criticism back in twenty nineteen when he said he
would definitely turn down the chance to go to a
Trump White House if they won that season. They did
win in twenty twenty when Biden was in office, so
they went to visit. But he is switching his his
stance and they are going April seventh, and the OSU

(36:02):
Buck Guyes also accepted their invitation.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
They'll be there on April fourteenth.

Speaker 4 (36:06):
I think that's major. Look whatever your political stance is
that's that's your business, and you have your right to that.
I think to turn down the honor of going to
the White House is foolish, and I don't think that's
fair for the other players that looked at that as
an honor if they wanted to go. So I'm glad
they're going and they're they're being honored and the way

(36:28):
they deserve to be hon agreed. I think it's uh.
I think it's great. Major.

Speaker 2 (36:33):
I guess I think you put your differences aside for
an doubt.

Speaker 4 (36:36):
I always tell you guys that we've interviewed so many
celebrities musicians, We've never interviewed a president sitting or you know,
had served in the office. I bumped into Jimmy Carter.
Was I would love to be sure what Jimmy Carter
y man I was. I turned around the corner. I
bumped into Jimmy Carter. You never met Jimmy Carter, Clinton Obama.
I did moment to Jimmy car Oh, Trump, I would

(36:59):
I would love to just have the opportunity to meet anyone.

Speaker 2 (37:02):
Oh, I thought you was someone.

Speaker 1 (37:03):
Else lack a peanuts shum butt you in the face
by the way what what kind of set this a
blaze on the internet was the fact about the the
Jackie Robinson website drama.

Speaker 7 (37:14):
Yeah, and.

Speaker 2 (37:17):
And that's what makes this story little. It blew up
a little bit yesterday because of that. Did you say
an AI thing?

Speaker 4 (37:23):
Yeah, then it wasn't Jackie Robinson taken out by an
AI program?

Speaker 2 (37:26):
And then they put it back in. Oh oh, oh, okay, gotcha.

Speaker 4 (37:29):
Well, I'm glad they're putting their differences aside to receive
their accolades. They had a hell of a season, regardless
of your political stance.

Speaker 2 (37:37):
They think that's great.

Speaker 4 (37:38):
All right, let's go to dB for an update. Damn fire,
what's that buddy? Guys?

Speaker 6 (37:43):
Russell Wilson has signed that one year deal with the
New York Giants, speaking with three porters today via a
zoom call.

Speaker 4 (37:49):
This might be my fourteenth year to be able to
lead an amazing group of men that really have big
hopes and goals and dreams and desires, and we all
have to share the same goal.

Speaker 2 (37:59):
And so I think that that's the best part about
it is I could be around a lot of them,
you know, extremely talented guys.

Speaker 6 (38:04):
Wilson also says he expects to be the starter for
the Giants in week one.

Speaker 4 (38:08):
Hey, dB, I hate to interrupt your updates, but in
the other clip you played, he uses the term rock
and in roll.

Speaker 2 (38:15):
A guy, I want to rock and roll. It's something
like your dad would say.

Speaker 4 (38:19):
Yeah, It's like, is that what every old white dad
says when he closes out to buil at a restaurant.
Let's rock and roll.

Speaker 2 (38:29):
I'll give our buddy Jim credit.

Speaker 4 (38:30):
Our buddy Jim, who lives in Charlotte said, if you
guys had to right now bet your savings, like if
I went into your bank account and took all four dollars,
if I went into your bank account and took your
millions and millions, your house, whatever you have, and you
had to wager it today. Here's the bet, Dodgers or

(38:52):
the field to win the World Series. Dodgers or you
get all other thirty one teams. I'm sorry, Baseball, twenty
nine teams.

Speaker 7 (39:03):
You go?

Speaker 4 (39:03):
Do you go twenty nine teams or do you go Dodgers.
You have to bet your full savings today to win
the World Series. Based on right now, I would have
today's today, I'm going I'm going in the field. Field. Yeah,
but you know why, because it's just not easy to do.

(39:23):
I believe the Dodgers could do it. Obviously they're stacked,
but it's so not easy to do.

Speaker 2 (39:30):
It hasn't been done.

Speaker 4 (39:30):
And how long a five or seven game series could
get tricky and weird and wonky. When's the last repeat
the Yankees? Right, last repeat was a while ago. Yeah,
it's been a minute because it's not easy.

Speaker 1 (39:42):
Yeah, I'm a Dodgers homer, so yeah, not really fair
to get an answer for me. I will say this though,
the Dodgers pitching situation has me feeling like they can repeat.

Speaker 4 (39:53):
I think if any tea but again, yeah, one team
or twenty nine. There have been stacked teams that I
couldn't do it. Like I remember the A's when we
were kids, the Bash Brothers. I remember there was uh,
you know, there were Texas Ranger teams that lost.

Speaker 2 (40:06):
Back to back.

Speaker 4 (40:07):
They were the Royals had two years in a row
they lost and then they won. It's hard to win.
We saw that with the Chiefs. Hard to repeat, hard
to repeat in baseball. But if there were any team
to do it, this Dodgers team seems so stacked and
so ready. But if you would have bet your life
savings Dodgers or, as they say, the field the rest

(40:28):
of the rest of Major League base It's crazy that
it feels like a risk to take the field. That's
how good the Dodgers are. That's the all playing hypothetically.
I'm going with the field on this. That's just you know,
my take on it. And a quick reminder yesterday was
Team Mobile Tuesday. If you have Tea Mobile, you get
the MLB free, the app for free, so better believe
I did that? Are you the greatest guy? Just a

(40:51):
reminder if you have AT and T at Verizon, you
don't get that, but you just get better coverage. Your
phone works exactly. That's a great hypothetical. Ask your friends,
you know, what would you do? I was Sam your thought?
Most people don't have a savings.

Speaker 7 (41:03):
Do you have?

Speaker 2 (41:03):
Do you have a thought?

Speaker 4 (41:04):
Like if I said, Sam, put it all in the
letter coverage?

Speaker 2 (41:06):
I agree with that.

Speaker 4 (41:07):
What do you think I have T Mobile? Sadly, I
would say I'd take the field as well. I just think, Yeah,
Isaac Lowan cron, I know you're just chiming in now
there he is taking over for Dann Buyer, who's like,
I'm not on the clock yet, jerk, Isaac, would you
choose the Dodgers or the field? Essentially, if you had
to bet everything, Isaac Lowancron owns.

Speaker 18 (41:27):
The Dodgers and if not, they will buy the field.

Speaker 4 (41:31):
Hey, let's do it. One fifty hits. Yeah, there's a surgeon. Yeah,
what wen is? Go back.

Speaker 15 (41:40):
Back into town throwing it back for a Thursday. Old
School went fifty hits. That's fifty after cn R give
you the time capsule topic and we reminisce together.

Speaker 7 (41:52):
Yeah.

Speaker 4 (41:53):
Yeah, So every Thursday we throw it back when fifty
hits and we get you involved with more phone calls.
Eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox, we started off
the show with why Opening Day is so special? We
get all excited about it like Christmas morning, like it's
Newdi magazine day. You tried to break that down and
part of that is, you know, it takes you back
to your childhood. What made you fall in love with

(42:13):
the game? I want you guys to think about who
it was in honor of Opening Day, who was your
favorite baseball player of all time?

Speaker 2 (42:24):
But what made you love them?

Speaker 10 (42:25):
Like?

Speaker 4 (42:26):
What was it about them that made you fall in
love with that player? There for the game like we
all have those moments. But yeah, I remember, I remember
knowing and being a little boy saying I know I
like girls. Because Christy Brinkley is stripped by the pool
and National Lampoon's vacation, I'm like, I know I like girls.

Speaker 2 (42:46):
Yeah, how did you know?

Speaker 4 (42:48):
How did you know you loved baseball? Your answers at
Covin on rich In eight, seven, seven, nine to nine
on Fox could be No, We'll start with you. You're
the guy that knows automatically. I got my answer. But dude,
the hit man, Don Manningly is the guy that really
sold me on baseball, made me fall in love with
the game.

Speaker 2 (43:07):
And it was everything about him. He idolize these guys.

Speaker 4 (43:10):
It was his eye black, it was how he stood
at the play and you would you would do it
playing with football?

Speaker 2 (43:16):
Who was that for you?

Speaker 4 (43:17):
We get to your phone calls next, Donnie baseball and
what did that mean? He had a style of baseball
that he played. It was dirty, it was gritty, it
was real baseball. And you know, you know how mamba
mentality means something to a basketball fan, Donnie baseball meant
something to a little East Coast kid. It was like

(43:39):
this guy was a ballplayer. He got dirty and did
everything he could to help his team win. He hit
six Grand Slams in one season. He had magical MVP years.
He was nasty at first base. He was an unassuming
power hitter. He wasn't like a big dude. But it
was how he wore his hat. It was how he
had his eye black. I mean it was how he had.
He stood pigeon toed in the batter's box, left handed.

(44:03):
Every kid playing with football rich for fun. You would
switch sides. If you were righty, you batted lefty. And
when I batted lefty, you better believe I got into
my Don Mattingly baseball stands. That must have been cool
to root for the second best first baseman in New
York in the eighties, after Keith Hernandez. You could say
that it's not true. I mean, who has more gold gloves,
who has more MVPs. I'm just throwing it out there,

(44:24):
has a better baseball career and still coaching and is
a legend and should be all of who's smoking cigarettes
of the dugout and doing cocaine off the strippers exactly
why it's done maddingly ahead of Keith Hernandez.

Speaker 2 (44:36):
Oh no, I was giving him credit for that. No,
So who got you to love the game? And why?

Speaker 4 (44:42):
And why? Danny g Let's go to you. You're West
Coast guy. Let's switch it up, bring it out to
the West coast. Who did you fall in love with
as a little kid?

Speaker 2 (44:48):
What made you love him? Early eighties?

Speaker 1 (44:50):
My grandma took me in to Dodger Stadium for my
first time Pedro Guerrero. What's the first player of me?
And my older brother put a poster of up in
our bedroom. Yeah, the way he's good, tall in the
batter's box, great, great player for l A and I'll
never forget the first time we saw him interviewed after
a game. We were shocked that he was speaking Spanish.
We thought he was African American ce see Betty and three. Yeah,

(45:15):
he was on the combo of him and Dusty Baker,
pedro Ga, we were I.

Speaker 2 (45:21):
Mean, hello, we were kindergarten in.

Speaker 4 (45:22):
Second grade totally and he was the hot card to
have at that time. Yeah, when when trading cards was
was back in action. Iowa, Sam, who's that guy for you?
Why did you love him? I feel like for I
I'm gonna guess before he even tells us. Yeah, Fernando
vellanswell it brought you back to your roots. Was there

(45:43):
was there a player? Because I'm going to think back,
I'm gonna give you another angle. If you didn't have
a hometown team and you lived in the middle of
a cornfield, and I will, like Sam, I grew up
rooting for the Phillies, but I that was like later
in life. I didn't did he have I don't have
a tradition. I thought every kid, every kid rooted for
Chris Saba.

Speaker 2 (46:01):
I thought in the.

Speaker 4 (46:02):
Nineties, then you have Mike Schmidt, mustache trimmings and a
little ziplock bag.

Speaker 2 (46:06):
You got an eBay.

Speaker 4 (46:07):
Yes, yeah, I know that in my yes. I mean
like like a lot of people loved you know when
I was a kid, like Frank Thomas and the White
Sox growing up, And can I tell you Frank Thomas,
I got to see him hit a home run one
set at their old old ballpark day I played in.
It's not my answer to this question, but Frank Thomas,
for some reason was one of those guys that wasn't
on my team. But I took such an interest in

(46:28):
his stats.

Speaker 1 (46:28):
I was just gonna ask you guys that question, who
was the first baseball player for another team that you loved?
And you had a couple pages of six sheets upsessed
with their cars.

Speaker 4 (46:38):
Others loved Griffy Jr. I was like, no, no, Frank
Thomas is my guy. That's cool, that's a good answer,
But yeah, griff Griffy Junior poster.

Speaker 1 (46:46):
For me, it was Eric Davis head oh man. I
loved his batting stance, on his swag, the way he
held the bat. I wanted Eric back then. I wanted
Eric Davis on the Dodgers so badly. And this is
a weird reference, but every kid could relate. He was
nasty in the game RBI.

Speaker 4 (47:03):
He had thirty seven home runs that year and he
was on the National League All Star Team in RBI baseball,
So you associate things to how good were they in
video games as well?

Speaker 2 (47:13):
At that time, I.

Speaker 4 (47:14):
Remember Rade Bogs batted three sixty eight just because of RBIs.

Speaker 2 (47:17):
Seriously, you knew your stats, you knew your cards, and.

Speaker 4 (47:20):
If your kid of the eighties, one of the best
baseball fights of all time was Ray Knight and Eric
Davis at third base. Ray Knight gets into like a
fighting irishman stands like put him up, put him up,
and him and Eric Davis tussled. Yeah, it was a
really great baseball fight in the eighties. But my answer,
who got me into baseball? I grew up a Mets fan,

(47:40):
So there's so many choices, right was at Keith? Was
it Gary Carter being all clean cut with his you know,
Irish spring commercials and you know, drinking milk. To me,
it was Dwight Gooden. I was a pitcher in Little League.
I wore number sixteen. It's always been my lucky number.
And I'm a Montana fan in football, so sixteen. My
daughter's birthday the sixteenth. That number follows me. And as

(48:02):
a kid, the billboards of Dwight good and when he
pitched at Chase Stadium back in the day, that place
was electric. If drugs and alcohol and stuff didn't get
in his way, would have been one of the greatest
ever Friday Night's appointment watching watching Dwight good in New York.
Even if you weren't a Mets fan, rich, was there
a scrub on the team that you loved seriously? Like
that you just rooted for so hard? Not a scrub?

(48:25):
But I remember the tough shuffle. I have too of them,
and I say, scrub, you know, respectfully, Bobby meetchim for me.
I always rooted for him and Randy Vallardi as time
went on, too, I always rooted for that guy. What
you got, Isaac?

Speaker 18 (48:37):
First of all, Rich, have you ever read a book
called The Bad Guys?

Speaker 10 (48:42):
Oh?

Speaker 4 (48:42):
Such a great It's the only book I've read since
Where the Wild Things Are?

Speaker 18 (48:47):
He didn't mess much.

Speaker 4 (48:48):
It's a great book.

Speaker 18 (48:50):
This is super random. But for me, Alejandro Pana now,
Andre Pania was the winning pitcher in the Kirk Gibson
home run game. Later when the Braves made their first
run of the World Series in ninety one. He got
clutch strikeout after clutch strikeout down the stretch in the
LCS and in the World Series.

Speaker 4 (49:10):
But he had a.

Speaker 19 (49:11):
Really distinctive, super graceful wind up and pitching motions. And
so when I was of that age, I would always
wear out the right toe on my tennis shoes like
every month, and my yes, my mom was like, why
do I keep having to buy you new shoes? Why
is it just the right toe?

Speaker 18 (49:32):
And I realized it was because I was emulating the
Alejandro Pana pitching motions so so much.

Speaker 2 (49:38):
That's a good one.

Speaker 4 (49:40):
I would emulate the high leg kick overhand heat of
a Dwight Gooden and he would drag his foot Every year.
I'd have to get there was in a little dish
you would put on your cleats for if you draw,
if you did drag your right foot, or you'd have
to buy shoe go. But it does go to show
you the impact that these players have on not only

(50:04):
you but kids today and how special it is. And
that's why we're excited about baseball. Man Randall, question for you. Yeah,
as we get to the rest of the phone calls,
phones are hot. Love talking baseball. Danny Isaac Iowa, I
would say, He's like, I don't have I don't remember
any of those when you were a kid. I'm trying
to think like in the obviously in the nineties, like
the Cubs and the Cardinals are pretty much Iowa's teams. Yeah,

(50:27):
so you had Sammy Sosa and market Plier, but like
that whole thing, But like, I don't, I don't I
don't have a player. There was no guys who do
you remember being the signature inside your glove?

Speaker 2 (50:36):
Oh, that's a good one.

Speaker 4 (50:37):
I remember having a rawlings infield glove. I had the
Ozzie Smith. So many people had Robin Yell Robbie.

Speaker 2 (50:44):
That was a big one.

Speaker 4 (50:44):
It was a very popular one. Mine actually, I got
mine off of mine fell off the truck. My uncle
gave it to me and said it was a Jim
Palmer glove that I had, but I loved it.

Speaker 1 (50:54):
A lot of us had hand me down. My grandpa
gave me an old glove and he said, I want
you to play second base. It was a Joe Morgan signal.

Speaker 2 (51:01):
Oh nice, that's cool.

Speaker 4 (51:02):
Yeah, you know. Years later we actually worked with Joe
Morgan's daughter. Totally random, but we did, and she was
super sweet. He's a legend for sure. So those little things, though,
put those players on your radar and maybe for that
reason you rooted for them or kept an eye on
them and fell in love with the sport. And that's
what we're asking today in honor of Opening Day. Your

(51:23):
favorite player of all time? But what made you love them?

Speaker 8 (51:26):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (51:27):
What made you fall in with something about game?

Speaker 4 (51:29):
Like Isaac described that moment perfectly like he'll never forget it,
and that's seldom. Moving forward, Greg in Portland, you're on
what's up, buddy, Yeah, man.

Speaker 8 (51:38):
And I love this topic.

Speaker 17 (51:39):
By the way, nice nineteen ninety six, Andrew Jones came
into the league for the first time, and that was
that was it.

Speaker 4 (51:49):
I mean, you know who I fell in love with
that year, John Wetland. They were gonna say, Carmen Electra, No, no, no,
but remember that John Wetland. That's cool. And Andrew Jones
and that Braves team that they were great. Andrew Jones
was incredible. You're absolutely right, that team, Chipper Jones, Andrew Jones.

(52:11):
It's a shame that team won one World Series as
a as a as a crew. Say hi to let's
go to John in me John Covin on retchords some buddy.

Speaker 10 (52:21):
Hey guys, I haven't listed this guys in a long time,
but they switched me to nights at the hospital, so
I finally get.

Speaker 8 (52:27):
To listen to you.

Speaker 4 (52:28):
Well, hey, welcome back, brother. How's how you feeling and
what do you think what player made you fall in
love with baseball?

Speaker 2 (52:33):
And Opening Day?

Speaker 10 (52:35):
This was old school and it defined my age. Storman
Gorman Thomas from the Milwaukee Brewers and I can still
name off almost every player from back then in this
late seventies early eighties.

Speaker 2 (52:49):
That's awesome.

Speaker 10 (52:49):
I loved his pose at He didn't have any flair
as a wind up for anything. He just stood at
the plate for that ball and knock the living daylights
out of it.

Speaker 4 (53:03):
You know who you got to give credit to, because
it took like twenty five thirty years for someone to
think of this on social media. Batting stance Guy, dude,
I was just thinking I recently saw it.

Speaker 2 (53:15):
He still funny.

Speaker 4 (53:16):
He did your ninety six Yankees and I thought of you.
I was like, oh, I love it, man. Batting stance
Guy is still funny because it's what all of us did.
You went through your team's lineup, you'd be like, you're like,
now batting, let me dish you be all down?

Speaker 5 (53:28):
Yes, And then that's a question for you guys. The
number one batting stance you used to Darryl Strawberry. Number
one answer to you, that's when you're ready to hit
some bombs. So we used to crouch down and do
Ricky Henderson's batting stance for sure, man, no doubt.

Speaker 4 (53:42):
So yeah, even as a Yankees fan growing up, Darryl Strawberry,
I mean that meant it was like its home run.

Speaker 2 (53:48):
Time, So the batswirl. Yeah, you were ready. So the
number again, eight seven seven ninety nine.

Speaker 4 (53:55):
O Fox. If we don't get to you hit us
at Covino and Rich we throw it back gold going
fifty hits, taking you back to your childhood days. You
had that poster in your room. Eventually it came down
for Carmen Electros. But that player made you fall in
love with the game. What was it about him that
made you love him? I'll tell you this as I
watch a Yankees game out of the corner of my eye. Yeah,
that facial hair isn't given Devin Williams much confidence. He's

(54:16):
about to blow this game. I hope not. By the way,
my answer was Don Mattingly Rich quick story, and I'll
make it quick. Went to a Yankees game, and I'm
wearing my Donnie Baseball Don Mattingly number twenty three baseball shirt,
right the T shirt. They didn't print shirts for everybody
back in the day. It was just the star players.
I'm wearing my Don Manley T shirt. And you know,

(54:37):
my dad gets into New York City Bronx traffic, and
who are we sitting right next to in traffic on
the way home? Don Maddingly right, Me and my buddy,
another kid named rich my little league pal Ritchie. Right.

Speaker 2 (54:54):
We're in the car and we look over to the left.

Speaker 4 (54:57):
Does he cry? Some day I's thinking I could have
been the Richard communal roofs. Maybe maybe Don Manningly is
side by side with us in traffic like I'm the.

Speaker 2 (55:06):
Major Deagan or whatever.

Speaker 4 (55:07):
I'm sure it was done Mattingly.

Speaker 7 (55:09):
It was.

Speaker 4 (55:10):
It was and you know, your your little kid imagination
goes wild. But it was a gold Mercedes. But in
my mind it was made of gold, right because I
was a kid, But it was a gold Mercedes.

Speaker 2 (55:20):
True story, and I'll never forget. Like I look over
and I go.

Speaker 4 (55:24):
To my dad, Oh my god, it's Don Manningly. And
my dad was like, yeah, it what he didn't look.
He thought we were lying. My buddy came over, Yo,
it's Done Manningly. My dad still thinks we're trying to
like prank him to look, is Don Manningly stuck in traffic?

Speaker 2 (55:40):
My dad finally turns to the left and he seized
Don Manningly.

Speaker 4 (55:44):
He's like eight, rolls his window down, yeah Don, and
he let Don Manningly cut in front of us. In traffic,
but Don Manley waved to us, gave us the thumbs up,
made me love him even more. Just seemed like the
coolest dude in New York. And he wasn't in New
York sort of guy, you know what I mean. He
was just a ballplayer. I love your story, but I'm

(56:04):
gonna I'm gonna true story. I believe it was just
a mustache guy from the Bronx. My dad, my dad,
Don Mattingly cut him in traffic, and he was super
grateful for it.

Speaker 2 (56:14):
It happened. Let's say, what's up to? Where do you
want to go?

Speaker 4 (56:17):
Danny g you want to Let's go to Dwayne in Odessa.
Let's go rapid fire off to wrap this up on
opening day? Who made you fall in love with the game?

Speaker 2 (56:25):
What's up?

Speaker 12 (56:25):
Man?

Speaker 4 (56:26):
Yeah?

Speaker 10 (56:26):
I would have to say a Kirby Pucket center field,
just running around all over place, diving.

Speaker 9 (56:31):
And then in the World Series twins are down, he says, everybody,
jump on my back. I'm gonna carry you to.

Speaker 8 (56:36):
The World Series.

Speaker 9 (56:37):
Yeah, that's it's pretty freaky.

Speaker 2 (56:39):
He was so great man.

Speaker 4 (56:40):
You feel like you picture him gracefully jumping against the wall. Yeah,
against that PLEXI glass yeah, without a dowbn be Pucket
was incredible. Paul in North Carolina, what's up, man, Paul?
Your bull you bully good Man?

Speaker 2 (56:54):
What's I'm a little nervous Yankees about to lose this
game ahead.

Speaker 8 (57:00):
I'm gonna I'm gonna answer you guys a couple of
questions rapid fire. I'm a forty four year old Mets fan.
So when I was in eighty six, I had just
turned six years old.

Speaker 4 (57:08):
So you, you and I, You and I are the
exact same.

Speaker 2 (57:10):
So here we go. Let's let's hear it.

Speaker 8 (57:12):
Yep. Well, Gary, Gary Carter was my my favorite player.
I remember that Ivory soap commercialere he ripped a bar
soap in half. I know, it was the coolest damn thing.
The first player outside of the Mets I really adored
was Tony Gwynn. I had a poster in my room.
He had bats in one hand and balls and the other.
The poster said, it's not the bats, that's the balls.

(57:33):
I thought that that was great. Yeah. The first signature
and the glover, the first signature and the glove. I
remember I was a squatty, fat kid, and I had
the black catchers going with the orange outside target and
it was a Lance pair of signature.

Speaker 2 (57:46):
That one for sure.

Speaker 4 (57:48):
By the way, let's go Mets sor right, let's go yeah,
I won't feel so bit of your Yankees.

Speaker 2 (57:52):
Blow it here, I hope.

Speaker 4 (57:53):
Now, who's up, Cherry out?

Speaker 2 (57:57):
Let's go Williams with the two outs? Any one more
out for the win? All right?

Speaker 4 (58:04):
Back for two Yankees. But the Brewers got runners on
second and third. I know, uh, you know what, they
just went to some Yankees guidos in the stands high fiving.
They just jinxed you. Let's go brew crew, all right? Uh,
wrap it up? Albert in Texas?

Speaker 2 (58:18):
What's up man?

Speaker 8 (58:20):
Thanks? Go on, guys.

Speaker 16 (58:21):
A big Ashros fan, I got iconic duo Jeff Bagwell
and Craig Biggios.

Speaker 4 (58:27):
Yo, if you were an Astros fan during that time,
Bague and Bigio were such a dynamic duo, such such
great ballplayers.

Speaker 2 (58:34):
Mm hmm.

Speaker 4 (58:35):
That was even when you change your logo to that
like cosmic looking corny uniform remember those years of course, Yeah,
you mean like the Mike Scott Kevin bassiars those years. See,
I like I like that cheesy rainbow eighties one right? Uh,
you know one more we'll go to Arizona and say
hi to Corey and then we'll move on.

Speaker 16 (58:50):
What's up man, Hey, real quick wrapping fire. So my
two favorite players. I'm a Diard fan born in eighty nine.
I watched the Earthquake series, went down on the couch
as a baby. Anyways, Eric Burns, Nick Flisher. I don't

exciting players that I got to watch.

the most charismatic players. I love Nick swishalish Man. I

good but you really pulled for Of course, that pulled
you into the game because you're like, yeah, I know

my question for you. Who's your favorite crazy baseball player?

Speaker 2 (01:00:13):
Crazy?

Speaker 4 (01:00:13):
Two options? Two options? Jose Canseco? Yeah, or Lenny Daiko

I don't like the texture of pineapple.

It's not pineapple. It's like ice cream but it's whipped,
but it's pineapple.

Speaker 2 (01:00:52):
But it tastes like yeah, but it's not the same
texture but your pineapple.

I just don't have anything pineapp apple because I know
I like, don't like it, but maybe I will.

Speaker 4 (01:01:03):
I don't know. You never drink those little cans of
dole juice, papple juice. They're like eighty cents still probably
full of chemicals.

Speaker 2 (01:01:10):
I mean, it's one thing to not like dole whip,
but you don't like pineapple.

Speaker 21 (01:01:14):
I don't ivor shirt. I don't like biting into it.

Sam Spotty again. It's the Cavino Show, along with you,
Fox Sports Radio Nation, so b Dland. As my good

(01:04:03):
friend Scott Frell would always say, shake it out, light
them up, light it up. Eight seven seven ninety nine
on Fox. That's the number, or you can hit us
up at Covino and Rich. But I do want to
get you involved and hear from you. Eight seven seven
ninety nine on Fox. Because baseball is here. And what
a day yesterday, I say yesterday. You know why. I
know there's no crying in baseball, and I know that

(01:04:27):
we have an anti sports baby policy here on the
Coveno and Rich Show sports baby, but I am so
annoyed and I feel like such a crying baby when
I'm so pumped up about the Yankees win.

Speaker 2 (01:04:37):
Yesterday.

Speaker 4 (01:04:38):
D Yankees win, Austin Wells goes deep, the first catcher
to go deep for the Yanks since like nineteen hundred,
in the lead off position. Yeah, since forever, over one
hundred years, and.

Speaker 21 (01:04:52):
You got Anthony VOPI also.

Speaker 4 (01:04:54):
Gopy with the bomb. Volpi is the bomb? A nice
win four to two over the Brewers. And then I
wake up today and I'm like, yeah, buddy, more, oh
they're off today. What I hate that? That's the weak
It's the dumbest, honestly, and like, I'll bring it up
to casual sports fans and you're like, seriously, that's what

(01:05:15):
you're mad about, and I'm like, yes, yeah, it's not
like a Thursday. It's the day after opening day. It
always seems to happen that way, and I hate it,
and it's aggravating.

Speaker 2 (01:05:24):
It's annoying.

Speaker 4 (01:05:25):
I know, I sound like a crazy bait, cry baby,
little sports baby b but it's so frustrating because you're like,
you tease me with a beautiful win yesterday. Now I
gotta wait again for tomorrow. Did they go to Disneyland
with Rich? Yeah? What do you take it off on
a Friday?

Speaker 2 (01:05:43):
Me and Moncey's Dodgers aren't off. We have our ring
ceremony tonight.

Speaker 10 (01:05:46):
I know.

Speaker 21 (01:05:46):
I'm like, how do you just start opening day and
then half the teams the next day?

Speaker 4 (01:05:52):
You're like, Okay, take a day off. There was something
so annoying about it because you wait all year. It's
like a holiday. It's like, oh, Opening Day, you had
a nice win. It was a beautiful win, a nice day.
You know.

Speaker 2 (01:06:03):
It started off sad.

Speaker 4 (01:06:04):
They did the tribute the Yankees I'm talking about, did
the tribute to Brett Gardner's son, very somber, horrible story.
Aaron Judge was very close to Brett Gardner and his family.
He seemed very upset, but had a nice double yesterday.
You know, Yankees had a really nice win. I feel
in Gardner's honor. Nice win to start the season. Few
bombs and then you in no game today.

Speaker 2 (01:06:26):
Very annoying.

Speaker 4 (01:06:27):
I know you don't care about the Yankees, but you
have to understand how I feel about it.

Speaker 2 (01:06:31):
Thank you for playing along and understanding.

Speaker 4 (01:06:33):
I'm with you.

Speaker 18 (01:06:33):
I agree, so I'm.

Speaker 4 (01:06:34):
Annoyed, But I do want to talk about any other takeaways.
Danny g I gotta say this. I was talking to
some other Dodgers fans. I was talking to my girlfriend's dad.
He's also a Dodgers fan. Shout out to Lynn. He's
out there in Idaho. He's like, yo, man, maybe I'm old,
but I don't like the gold jerseys. You know, I

(01:06:55):
thought they were fired. I hate the Dodgers. Screw the Dodgers.
I mean, yeahan guy, but man, I thought that was
really cool. I like the gold manci any thoughts on.

Speaker 2 (01:07:04):
That you only get to do it if you win
the World Series, Like even if you don't like it,
you shut up.

Speaker 5 (01:07:09):
And so delivered the World Series trophy ice cube in
a classic car driving.

Speaker 4 (01:07:16):
He drove it around the warning track, the whole thing,
the whole just opening ceremony and again the ring ceremony today.
Barf because it's so cool and you guys are so
star studded, and oh, you're.

Speaker 1 (01:07:28):
Gonna hate something I'm gonna talk about that's on Apple TV.
We get to weekend, Hoby.

Speaker 2 (01:07:33):
It makes me want to barf because they're so good and.

Speaker 4 (01:07:37):
He's a superstar stepping up in the big moments, hitting
another bomb like they're so sixty two and oh it's gross.
So any of your takeaways from Opening Day or the
games today, it's just fun to have baseball back, and
of course your college basketball. If you're grumpy as a
sports fan right now, here's my theory on this and

(01:07:57):
You can take it personal if you want to. I
think you sucked at little league because if you associate
this time of the year with bad feelings and bad mermories,
you're the weakest. You sucked at little league and it
just brings up bad feelings for you. Because it's the
best time of the year. Baseball begins, which signified springtime
for me. The weather's starting to break, You're starting to
bust out your little short shorts. You see burst the

(01:08:18):
other day. That works here. He was showing more man
thigh than mons he does on the beat Wow Tale.
He was like, manthik, his upper thighs are so white.
I had to put sunglasses on when I came into
the office.

Speaker 1 (01:08:31):
We had all those great baseball games. And then yeah,
I watched my Lakers lose. But if somebody hits a
half court shot to win, even against your team, I
was like, okay, I respect giddy for that shot. He
wasn't even to the half court line.

Speaker 4 (01:08:45):
No you, No, Lebron should pass the ball better, and
that is down. Yeah he did that half fast.

Speaker 2 (01:08:50):
Yeah that it was.

Speaker 3 (01:08:52):
It was.

Speaker 21 (01:08:52):
And then the Austin Reeves lay up uncontested. Also easy
lay up there and it was that whole fifteen to
twenty seconds was crazy.

Speaker 6 (01:09:00):
They were sleepwalking there at the end. But that shot,
I mean, how many times have you seen it?

Speaker 1 (01:09:06):
In the eighties, we saw like Isaiah Magic make some
shots like that once in a while, but few and
far in between.

Speaker 2 (01:09:13):
That was amazing.

Speaker 4 (01:09:13):
But they were hitting threes and hitting nice shots the
whole fourth quarter. That Lakers should not have lost that game.
It's embarrassing. And forget about the last it was it
was a choke job. How about the last twenty four
hours where you have a buzzer beater from Lebron and
then yeah, he's a buzzer beater with let's.

Speaker 21 (01:09:29):
Say it's a buzzer beater, and then and then uncontested.

Speaker 5 (01:09:32):
Uncontested tipping, thank you, and the Arkansas then Arkansas. After that,
I'm watching the Arkansas game, looks like they're in control.
Texas Tech storms back that shot to go to overtime,
and then in overtime that ot was amazing basketball.

Speaker 1 (01:09:47):
So anyone that says, oh, this March madness is not good,
she shut up. That was amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:09:52):
They're saying that because there's no Cinderella.

Speaker 4 (01:09:54):
Team, But is there at this point, like maybe one
at the it was Arkansas was because it was the
lowest seed.

Speaker 21 (01:10:01):
They weren't considered a cinderell No, no, no, but I mean.

Speaker 4 (01:10:04):
Like that was really like a power five team, but
they were the lowest seed at ten in the Tier left.

Speaker 2 (01:10:09):
So crazy stat though, Yeah, yeah, give it to me.

Speaker 4 (01:10:12):
John Caliperry was coming into this game, was thirty five
and oh when he had a lead at halftime of
six points or greater and he blew they blew like
what a sixteen point lead?

Speaker 10 (01:10:23):
They did blow?

Speaker 21 (01:10:24):
A sixteen point.

Speaker 4 (01:10:25):
Thirty five and oh when with a halftime a lead
of six points and more. That is a crazy stat.

Speaker 1 (01:10:30):
And guess what lead the Lakers wasted in the fourth quarter,
a sixteen point lead.

Speaker 2 (01:10:35):
Oh, that's I didn't know it was that.

Speaker 21 (01:10:36):
Also that Arkansas game, like the numbers, when there was
like about four minutes left, it was a ninety five
percent chance that Arkansas was going to win with like
four minutes left in regulation.

Speaker 4 (01:10:46):
Bar No, I don't know who you blame at that point,
but yeah, and here's what I'm getting at all of this, right,
and it backs up the point that I'm saying, we're
talking exciting even on the losing side of your Lakers,
Dandy g exciting basketball, college basketball, NBA Baseball's back. Like
I said, the weather's nice. If you're grumpy, it's a

(01:11:07):
two prong thought. If you're grumpy this weekend heading into
the weekend, you either sucked at Little League right because
again because it brings back old feelings. Ah, or you
just need a hug. Something's wrong, like you're you're maybe
depressed or something, just because there's Yeah, but there's just
so much going on, Like even if you're not a

(01:11:28):
sports guy or a college basketball guy, it's the weekend.
The weather's starting to break, it's beautiful. You have the
sound of baseball in the background. You might need a hug, Manzi,
you might have to give out hugs or something. Oh
but I'm really grumpy, Monsy.

Speaker 2 (01:11:44):
But something maybe is not right with you.

Speaker 4 (01:11:46):
You're Opening Day takeaways, anything you want to chop it
up about. I'm here to talk eight seven seven ninety
nine on Fox. But something else is on my mind
is this Dukee controversy. Speaking of the weekend, and speaking
of college basketball, let's talk about Duke. They beat Arizona
Number one. Duke be Arizona one hundred and ninety three, right,

(01:12:06):
be number four Arizona. Now they take on Alabama tomorrow.
If I'm not mistaken, right, number one Duke taking on
number two Alabama tomorrow. So what's the controversy. You got
your sweek sixteen, You got your weekend plans. You know
what part of my weekend hobnobbing agenda is. We're gonna
talk about what you need to watch this weekend. Of

(01:12:27):
course some college basketball, but of course some White Lotus.
You guys watching the White Lotus. Of course Spot's watching
the brown Lotus. I don't even know what that means.
That means, I don't even know what that means, but
the White Lotus. That sounds kind of gross, I know, right.
It's one of those polarizing shows on HBO Max. It's
season three. It's done by Mike White, who will forever

(01:12:50):
be Net Schneebly of the School of Rock for me. Now,
in this show, you don't need to watch the show
to understand what's going on. In Isaacs plays a character
named Tim Ratcliffe, and Tim Tim Ratcliffe is on vacation
with his family at the White Lotus in Thailand, and

(01:13:12):
by the way, thoughts to Thailand. I don't know if
you saw today a seven point seven earthquake.

Speaker 2 (01:13:16):
Yo. The footage looks like a nightmare.

Speaker 4 (01:13:20):
It looks so scary. Last I heard, well over one
hundred people died. They're saying maybe into the thousands.

Speaker 2 (01:13:27):
I hope not.

Speaker 4 (01:13:28):
But a major earthquake in Bangkok today in Thailand, but
the show takes place in Thailand. Jason Isaacs Tim Ratcliffe
is the character. He's on vacation with his family and
while he's on vacation at the White Lotus, he gets
terrible news. He's going to be thrown under the bus publicly.

Speaker 2 (01:13:47):
That's the gist.

Speaker 4 (01:13:48):
That's what we know, like devastating business news that's gonna
incriminate him, like Embezzelman. It's gonna be big news and
it's going to ruin his life and his family. So
he is the only guy that knows this. On the show,
he gets the hold of a gun on the show.
Now I'm not giving away the plot. I'm just telling

(01:14:09):
you what happened, and it's a viral story today. On
the show, he gets the hold of a gun. He's
having suicidal thoughts. He has a weak moment where he's like,
I'm going to be thrown in jail my reputation is
going to be ruined. I'm going to ruin my family.
I'm going to end it all right now, he takes

(01:14:32):
the gun, he points at his head. It becomes a
moment on the show, a viral moment on the show.
In this moment, he's wearing a Duke T shirt. And
they're saying that Mike White, the creator of the show,
is so crafty and so well thought out. He knew
exactly when this show was going to air, No, when
the meme was gonna hit no and when Duke if

(01:14:53):
and when Duke number one, Duke blows it, this meme
is going to be all over the place. You blew it,
You're over, Duke is done. So they're saying that he's
so crafty, and you know what's very believable because every
little part of the show is thought out. It's a
psycho psychological sort of show where like everything means something

(01:15:14):
right and that's the whole that's what makes the show good.
So they're like, that didn't happen by accident, sneebly, Mike
White must have or a writer must have some sort
of hatred to Duke, or they're just really trying to
clown Duke in this moment because everybody knows that this
is the viral meme. So there's so many questions that
comes from it. Is it funny? Is it going too far? Right?

(01:15:39):
And there's a lot of is the way to let
us going too far? Duke doesn't think it's funny. They
they're like, we don't they stand for what this represents.
They put out a statement.

Speaker 2 (01:15:48):
They also said there was no approval of it. Yeah,
they didn't improve their their logo being used in the show.

Speaker 4 (01:15:55):
So it's not a meme yet, but it is a
viral moment.

Speaker 2 (01:15:59):
Can you say lawsuit? Oh yeah? So like this is
the start of it.

Speaker 4 (01:16:02):
Duke's still in it, right, but they're saying if and
when Duke loses, this is the one that's the thing
everybody's gonna lean into Duke's I don't think I think
they're gonna blow away everybody.

Speaker 2 (01:16:12):
Well then no one. Then guess what.

Speaker 4 (01:16:14):
Mike White of the way, his evil plan never to
fruition will get the last laugh. They'll get the last laugh.
And that's another storyline that's fun. So based on that,
I do want to know your thoughts. Fox Sports Radio
Nation eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. My first
question is The White Lotus. Do you think certain shows
go too far? Like my girlfriend stopped watching The Walking

(01:16:35):
Dead with me when sorry for the spoiler, guys, when
Carl died. Remember when Carl died. Yeah, she stopped watching.
She's like that, oh, I didn't know he died. Shut off, dude,
who the hell's watching that anymore? Remind me I did
see I just haven't seen it so long.

Speaker 2 (01:16:50):
I imagine zombie got to him.

Speaker 4 (01:16:52):
I forget exactly.

Speaker 21 (01:16:53):
Yeah, I mean not that it's been a while.

Speaker 4 (01:16:55):
I had a big thing of pudding and uh and
died or something. I forget right then he did he
a vada pudding or he fell into he fell in,
But I remember my round fat pudding. She was like,
it's just gone too far. I'm like Carl.

Speaker 2 (01:17:09):
Who cares about Carl? She's like, I just can't watch anymore.

Speaker 4 (01:17:13):
He's a child, He's a child. I'm like, he had
a stupid cowboy hat. I don't care about Carl. Now
the White Lotus, with this duke thing and other storylines,
people are saying it's gone too far, But I'm trying
to lighten it up a little bit. Based on this
possible meme that could sweep the nation if Duke loses
in the Sweet sixteen feeling giddy like Josh because it's Friday, Sorry,

(01:17:36):
Danny g Yeah, how to your Lakers lose day?

Speaker 2 (01:17:40):
That's all right, the night before they want a buzzer,
then it's a push. You know what they should have
had that game?

Speaker 4 (01:17:46):
Was it one nineteen one seventeen basketball?

Speaker 10 (01:17:49):
You know what?

Speaker 2 (01:17:49):
The defense though, was amazing there at the end of
that game. So you can't be mad unless you can.

Speaker 4 (01:17:55):
Yeah, okay, So we have lots to get to today
weekend hobnobbing, like we always do. What you need to
watch on all the sports and entertainment stick around for that.
Plus again, that's sweeping the nation? Is it me or
Bill Belichick? Apparently where the same guy will explain we'll
give away prizes. But now back to the phone calls.
Let's get involved at eight seven, seven ninety nine on

(01:18:17):
Fox or at Covino and Rich hashtag Covino's the Man
hashtag Rich is Dope. Rich is on the Dumbo Flying
Ride as we speak right now. I just got an
update Dumbo the Flying Elephant.

Speaker 2 (01:18:28):
After he got out of the dull whip line.

Speaker 4 (01:18:30):
After his Adult Whipline, Adult Whip Life, Covino, and Whip
Show Today. So tomorrow Duke takes on Alabama, right number one,
Duke number two Alabama.

Speaker 2 (01:18:40):
If they lose, if they lose any time.

Speaker 4 (01:18:43):
Apparently the conspiracy goes that Mike White, the creator of
The White Lotus, very popular show on HBO Max, purposefully
created a moment that was intended to be a meme.
And it's Jason Isaac's what a gun to his head?
Wearing a Duke T shirt? So you could say, was

(01:19:06):
that intentional or was it coincidance. I don't think anything
on this show is coincidence. But I looked into it.
I did my due diligence, I did my research. I'm like,
does Mike White have some sort of in depth? Does
he hate Duke? He went to Wesleyan University so as
a theater in English major, So nothing, no juice there.

Speaker 2 (01:19:26):
Maybe he just doesn't like Duke or somebody.

Speaker 21 (01:19:28):
Told him that, like, hey, this is the most popular
school this year because of Cooper Flag.

Speaker 4 (01:19:34):
Yeah, if we put this maybe at all, what should
he be wearing a Duke T shirt? Like it wasn't
by accident. Let's be real it seems specific, very specific. Well,
they's supposed to be from North Carolina. Yes, okay, so
that adds to that's their order, okay. But it's all purposeful,
it really is. They're making these characters very hate herble.

(01:19:55):
They want you to hate them. So he's wearing the
Duke t shirt in this very important moment when he's
about to commit suicide or thinking about it on the show.
So the thought process is this was bound to be
a meme that everybody leans into because they're gonna want
to hate on Duke when they lose. If they lose Iowa.
Sam says he thinks they're going all the way, but
he could pay dividends for any year from now or

(01:20:17):
the way they could use that meme right right, you
know what, Yeah, it lives forever. You're right, like Oasis,
It's gonna live forever.

Speaker 10 (01:20:23):
Now.

Speaker 4 (01:20:25):
The question here Fox Sports Radio Nation, if and when
this ever becomes a meme. When it comes to sports memes,
they're great. But there's a number one. So I'll give
you my best casey case.

Speaker 2 (01:20:39):
Something I think I have. Number two.

Speaker 4 (01:20:41):
Yeah, wish I give you my Spider Harrison coming in
at number one. The number one sports meme, and I
hate to credit Mike who runs this place. Mike, he
drops a little nugget and walks away. He might drop
he might drop this one.

Speaker 2 (01:20:57):
N I got to know. I know the number one,
and he's.

Speaker 4 (01:21:00):
Right, he's right, And I hate giving him credit. Ah,
because you know what came to mind for me. I'll
tell you what came to mind for me. All right,
let's be real about it. It was swaggy P. The
Nick Young meme when turns around. It so famous. I
feel like he's more famous for that than anything else.

Speaker 21 (01:21:17):
I use it all the time.

Speaker 2 (01:21:18):
The huh.

Speaker 4 (01:21:20):
The swaggy p? Does everybody know it's him? It's Nick Young,
It's Nick Young, former Laker. Huh?

Speaker 2 (01:21:29):
All right? Do you need a drum roll for your
number one?

Speaker 4 (01:21:31):
But I was like, that's that's gotta be up there, right,
it is number.

Speaker 2 (01:21:35):
That's number three, after the number two one, Michael, the
number one is and.

Speaker 4 (01:21:39):
Here it is, all right, number one. And I'd love
to hear you debate it. And I want to hear
your answers. Which one used the most? The Jordan cry face,
it really is. Don't use that one, but it's so famous,
it's so famous.

Speaker 2 (01:21:55):
It's even put into other players faces.

Speaker 4 (01:21:58):
Sure, because he's Michael, because he's Michael Jordan, be because
he's crying, and see because it's just so funny and
he knows it. He makes fun of himself. Oh yeah, yeah,
it's the worst. It's the worst, but it's everywhere. It
has to be the number one. He's the most famous
sports icon, arguably of all time. It's a meme that
everybody knows. Your mom probably knows the Jordan cry face.
It might pass the mom test, But what other ones

(01:22:21):
come to mind? What other ones do you use? Eight
seven seven ninety nine on Fox? Number two also involves
crying being upset. Lebron famously in his calvs. Jersey JJ R.
Smith on the Golden State.

Speaker 2 (01:22:34):
Warriors court with his hands both hands out like this.

Speaker 21 (01:22:37):
And he's and he yeah, Danny, that's the one I
was gonna say.

Speaker 4 (01:22:41):
That's the one. That's the one I was going to say.

Speaker 3 (01:22:43):
So I was.

Speaker 4 (01:22:44):
I'm right with you.

Speaker 2 (01:22:45):
It's one that I've used multiple times. It's the moment.
It's it's more like a.

Speaker 4 (01:22:49):
Why why what are you doing?

Speaker 2 (01:22:52):
What are you doing?

Speaker 7 (01:22:53):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:22:53):
What are you doing?

Speaker 3 (01:22:55):
Is that?

Speaker 4 (01:22:55):
And it's so like everybody knows the frustration. Yes, yeah,
feeling in that moment.

Speaker 2 (01:23:01):
That's what I wanted to do when the Lakers were
on defense at the end of the Bulls game.

Speaker 4 (01:23:05):
Yes, why yeah? Isn't it funny how we're going backwards
like we now speaking symbols and memes and gifts like
we like babies and children. We communicate in hieroglyphic now,
like not even words, just pictures, just just Lebron sideways.
Why because we all know what that means. It's like frustration.

(01:23:26):
Why would you do that? And you know what dnj
immediately comes to mind. It's top three. You're right, I
think that is number two because because he's number two
to Jordan, let's be real about it, just like life,
it's number two. To do debates coming up an hour two.
Oh yeah, we'll get to it. So what other sports
memes crack the top five? Coming in at number five?

Speaker 21 (01:23:49):
One that I use a lot, but it could be
because you know, I'm a Clippers fan now. But the
one of James Harden with the mic and he rolls
his eyes and kind of like walks away.

Speaker 4 (01:23:58):
Is that more of it's a key or the same
tent is gifts and memes the same same amboa. It's
the difference to move if is like a little video,
the meme is a still shot, but still shot with
like maybe a little.

Speaker 21 (01:24:13):
Bit of a because Lebron, I feel like there's also
the gift because he's like, you know, like moving his hands.

Speaker 4 (01:24:19):
Like, don't get it twisted, because I definitely see Harden
as a meme.

Speaker 21 (01:24:23):
Absolutely often totally like this. There is a difference, and
I'm I, you're right, You're right, and.

Speaker 4 (01:24:28):
It's a meaning is more of a gift, despite what
Bryce Harper embarrassingly said years ago, he called it a
mimi but again in the defense, at first, none of us.

Speaker 2 (01:24:37):
I don't know if it's gift or gift. It's gift.
The creator came out and said it's a gift.

Speaker 4 (01:24:42):
It's gift. The creator came out and said, it's Jiff.

Speaker 2 (01:24:47):
I swear. They keep going back and forth.

Speaker 4 (01:24:49):
Who cares.

Speaker 2 (01:24:49):
I said gift now, which is but Jiff is peanut butter.
It's I.

Speaker 4 (01:24:53):
I say gift in my brain chooses Sam's choose gift.
So you know, yeah, they all fall in the same category.
But we're focusing on memes specifically. But it doesn't really matter.
I'm not here to degrade you on your mond point.

Speaker 1 (01:25:08):
He did, though in the pre show meeting, I said, Oh,
the one that I use a lot is the Jets.

Speaker 4 (01:25:13):
Wait what player are Scott?

Speaker 2 (01:25:14):
Bart Scott can't wait? Oh yeah, and he said, no,
that's a gift. That's not a meme. That's one of
my favorite not only gifts but soundbites. Do turn that
one up. If you can't wait?

Speaker 4 (01:25:25):
If you see Bart Scott and is it isn't like
steam coming from his head? Yes, if you see the
steam from like you know again, because we speak in hieroglyphics,
today's version of hieroglyphics. You know that you're excited about something? Yeah, dude, wait,
can't wait for baseball this weekend?

Speaker 8 (01:25:41):
Can't wait? Wait?

Speaker 2 (01:25:43):
Can't wait?

Speaker 4 (01:25:44):
So, based on this potential Jason Isaac's character, what is
it Tim Ratcliffe? Tim Tim Tim Ratcliffe wearing this Duke jersey?
This could be a very popular sports meme, quite possibly
starting this weekend if Duke loses or moving forward, like
Sam said, it might be up there. What other sports

(01:26:05):
gifts memes memes come to mind? What if he was
wearing the Duke shirt when like his uh you know
that scene where he's junk was hanging out. Okay, by
the way, that would have made a much better BEF.
We talked about going too far on the show. I
don't need to see this guy's junk. Damn, I hear
there's a lot of junk on this season of The
White Love stood up straight.

Speaker 2 (01:26:28):
I think bunt.

Speaker 5 (01:26:29):
On other shows you've said you don't want that sent
to your phone, So why would you want it on
your TV screen?

Speaker 8 (01:26:33):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (01:26:33):
I'm not on my phone.

Speaker 10 (01:26:35):
Bigger I need a bigger screen.

Speaker 4 (01:26:36):
Yeah, I think we need a morning Can I ask?
So Walt Walton Goggins is on White Lotus right, and
he's fantastic. Okay, I like Walton Goggins a lot, but
it wasn't Didn't he show his man parts on the
Royal Gemstones or the Righteous Gemstones? Didn't didn't he he
shows his junk on some show. I think it's the
age of man junk, you know, like how the Age

(01:26:58):
of Aquarius, we're entering the age of forgetting Sarah Marshall,
age of manjun What is it? The Hangover? There's like
some fake junk, I think, but it's very real because
we're so desensitized Sam to really get the attention of
the public today, it's man junk, Boogie Knight started at
all manjun Yeah, probably Boogie Knight. So the white lotus,
lots of man junk and this meme controversy. Let's go

(01:27:20):
to the phones. Thank you Fox Sports Radio Nation for
hanging with me The Rich List Show, Cavino and Rich
on Fox Sports Radio.

got high class on this side and you got ready
at a party on this side, ready to go.

Speaker 3 (01:27:51):
I love it.

Speaker 4 (01:27:52):
And there's so many different versions of that, but that's
really the premise of it. It's like, you know, here's
Tiger Woods looking sort of classy and his little vest,
and and then John Daly looking like he's smoking a sig.
I think he's he's right, colors zoom but pants whatever.
It's so good.

to say a gift, some of those gifts are memes.
