and again everything at Covino and Rich. I got one
question before we get into Saquon. I know we have
a theory on him, Kelsey and Ryan Reynolds, there's some beef.

Speaker 1 (02:00):
Got to touch on that.

Speaker 2 (02:01):
And then a Haley Steinfeld Josh Allen deep thought, Oh, but.

Speaker 1 (02:10):
You know, the more I think about the Bill Belichick
a girlfriend, heuse me. We're not going to talk about that.
That's already been undressed to me. Sorry, no, Bill, we
have to go. I've already said that, are you sure
she looking out for him or she like too much?

Speaker 2 (02:33):
Well stop, dude, I get it. I'm our angle of
it all. I'm just curious if I'm sure she has
his best interest in mind.

Speaker 1 (02:42):
But you gotta do it with little Grace. He's his
own man.

Speaker 2 (02:45):
No, because you want to have a theory, and when
it comes to football back off.

Speaker 1 (02:49):
You and I have a theory and we agree on
something that it's right.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
We've always had a theory that if you want to
make a couple smile, you asked them, Hey, how'd you guys?
Me tell me about the beginning, and a couple could
be in the middle of a fight, but all of
a sudden, like the woman's eyes will light up like,
oh he's so silly.

Speaker 1 (03:09):
Yeah, well, you know, I.

Speaker 2 (03:10):
Was with my buddy at a bar and there she was,
and no, that's not how it was. I was with
my girlfriend and people love Nowadays the story is not
as fun though. I was like, well, I was on
hinge and I swiped right and then left, and then
I saw this girl at a fat ass and I
was like, oh yeah, And I thought he was a
jerk at first, but then he hit me up and
I almost didn't swipe because he was holding a fish

(03:31):
in one of his pictures.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
Yeah, the story today not as fun.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
I just say, like, if you ask anyone like, hey, Danny,
how you meet Brenda, there's a story that's probably nice
and couples like to tell it.

Speaker 1 (03:43):
So it leads me.

Speaker 2 (03:44):
To believe based on How I Met Your Mother episode
I watched in the two thousands, I will saym you
and I both fans of.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
How I Met your Mother? Correct, No, no, you're not. No,
I A. I think we had another show in common.

Speaker 2 (03:56):
The Sam was a family show called How's Your Father? Oh, yeah,
that's what it was.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
How is you find? You know what?

Speaker 4 (04:01):
Sam?

Speaker 2 (04:01):
I didn't dislike it, but he's sit around doing nothing.
Watch How We Met Your Mother? It's fantastic. Oh yeah,
you're like lame laugh tracks, Sam, I don't know, maybe
the best sitcom of the two thousands.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
But that's cool.

Speaker 2 (04:12):
Lame show narrated by Bob Sagon. If you need shows
to tell you when to laugh, check that one out.
If you're too cool for a show with a laugh track,
listen to Cavino, who watches only History Channel documentaries.

Speaker 1 (04:22):
I missed it.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
I'm doing just fine, Thank you. Then she said rank them.
Damn you're kill them.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
I freaking hit you already. I didn't want to do
the show. Damn you want to take over?

Speaker 3 (04:36):
Carry on?

Speaker 2 (04:37):
So Bill Belichick on your mother? Shut your mouth for
a second. How you shut your mouth and you're talking
to me?

Speaker 1 (04:44):
Guys? How I met your mother?

Speaker 2 (04:46):
There was an episode where Barney he got a feeling
that Ted wasn't telling the truth because Ted and this
hot girl had a fake story of how they met,
and it was because they had met online, and in
the two thousands, meeting online would weird. So they were like,
we met at a cooking class. My thought is people
love sharing their how'd you meet?

Speaker 1 (05:07):
Story? So if Jordan Hudson shuts it down.

Speaker 2 (05:11):
Not talking about this, maybe it wasn't on a plane
signing a book.

Speaker 5 (05:17):
Maybe already told you he signed my textbook. Maybe is
her social studies book. Maybe there's more to the story,
or I'm just looking into it. I just I signed
her Little Golden Books. It was years ago. He signs
her copy of The Berenstein Bears.

Speaker 2 (05:34):
I'm just saying, people love to tell their story, just
something to sit that they, you know, sit on and
think about.

Speaker 1 (05:40):
Well, sit on this. Here's the update.

Speaker 2 (05:42):
The update based on this controversial CBS interview that we
discussed yesterday is that it's funny what.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Was CBS's biggest show in the two thousand, It's probably
How I Met Your Mother Got Him?

Speaker 2 (05:56):
I mean, I liked it, like I've seen a few episodes,
maybe two and a half minutes. But the update today
was that they almost felt a journalistic.

Speaker 1 (06:09):
Integrity.

Speaker 2 (06:11):
They felt it necessary to show this part of the
interview because it was such a part of what was
going on, that was the tip of the ice berk,
And it wasn't just that one interruption that was They
kept that one part in because apparently throughout the whole
interview she was interrupting. They said they deleted thirty minutes
of the interview because it was so awkward, but they
had to leave something in to sort of tell the story,

(06:32):
give the vibe, and tell the story of what was
really going on there, and that it was so bad
at one point that she got up and stormed out
and expected Bill Belichick.

Speaker 1 (06:43):
To follow her out.

Speaker 2 (06:45):
Now, Bill, we gotta go, I'm leading, And it got
real awkward, to the point where the guy doing the
interview was just like, all right, it's a rap, all right, Hey, thanks, Bill,
have a great one.

Speaker 1 (06:56):
Good luck. And do I think she has his best
interest in mind? Yes?

Speaker 2 (07:02):
But do I feel like when you're doing stuff like
that it undermines a powerful person. Yes, there's a time
and place you can have an equal relationship, a balance relationship,
a healthy relationship where everyone has their say, But that's
his platform, that's his arena. And when she's stomping on
him and cutting them off and telling them to shut

(07:23):
up and zip it in front of people, it undermines
his importance. And now UNC is showing concern, like is
this going to be a problem. I think Bill's got
a problem. I mean, some say she's a great ear
to have now that he's dealing with social younger people
and college kids.

Speaker 1 (07:41):
In fact, I heard Calar Cowhard was talking about next question.

Speaker 2 (07:46):
How you know it could be it could be good
for him because he's trying to relate to younger people
because now it's not like I'm the coach of the Patriots.
This is the organization you're trying to lure talent to
you in the college world. So maybe she's effective. I
only thought of this based on our dumb theory that
couples always like to talk about two things, how they

(08:07):
met and tell us about your wedding day.

Speaker 1 (08:09):
It is you see couples light up.

Speaker 2 (08:11):
It's true, and it is a move that Rich and
I often make because it brings some light into the conversation,
some fun how did you guys meet? And people light
up even if they dislike each other. So for them
to act that way it is a little suspect. But
I wished him the best. If she is his pr person,
then yeah, she's doing a good job. But it also

(08:35):
seems or comes across a little rude too, right, So hey, man,
that's the update. Not to sound agist or sexist, but
you're a dad of a teenage daughter.

Speaker 1 (08:46):
I am. It's Bill Belichick.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
He's a powerful, successful, good dude from what we understand.

Speaker 1 (08:54):
Yeah, I mean, but he's a winner. But if your
daughter's in her twenties.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
And you get I guess you accept your daughter or
son and love them no matter what. But there's got
to be a part of her family. That's like, really, really,
don't seventy year old guy.

Speaker 1 (09:09):
Sorry seventy three, No, I don't know have a question
for you guys.

Speaker 3 (09:15):
Yes, Bill being such a stone cold assassin at the
mic during press conference is basically like a human wall
of stone when answering questions. Maybe he doesn't mind her
kind of interrupting like that, because it's like she's kind
of doing that on his behalf, like the way he
would do it for his team.

Speaker 2 (09:30):
Of course, for all we know, they're in cahoots and
they think it's funny. Right Richel will be texting his
wife in front of people, like, we don't know what's
going on, and then then you know they're getting a
good laugh at everything, meaning they could have an understanding already,
like hey, get me out of this place. You know,
we don't know what their relationship is all about. This
is all speculation, but in fairness to us, that's how

(09:50):
it looks. This is how it appears. But for all
we know, he loves every second of it. Yeah, and
you know what, good for him, good for her. If
they're in love and they go or at least find
each other, you know they're fond of each other, Good
for them.

Speaker 1 (10:04):
What is it? My business? Are yours?

Speaker 2 (10:06):
But when you're in the public eye and you're Bill
Belichick and it's a story, people are going to talk
about it. I wish him, Well, I'm just saying my
you know, antennas peaked up when I was like, wait,
they don't want to talk about how they met. That's
what every new couple likes to talk about. How'd you
guys meet?

Speaker 1 (10:22):
Well, I was out with my friends and I really
wasn't gonna go out that night, but I'm so glad
I did. And he's like, yeah, you know, I had
one too many drinks and I was like, look at
that hot girl.

Speaker 2 (10:30):
There's always a story and people love to tell it
the end. So when you say how we don't want
to talk about it, just I don't know, not talking
about this, not talking about it.

Speaker 1 (10:42):
Yeah, got have fun with that.

Speaker 2 (10:43):
And if you're wondering where I met Rich, he was
at the circus. Actually yeah, he's he was a class
struggling bully pins. He's stuggling balling pins. I'm like, hey,
this guy has potential. Actually we met at a bar
and hoe book in New Jersey and became friends, and
the rest of his history we had mutual friends. But anyway,
I'm Coveno. That is Rich, and that's still a big
story today. So don't get mad at us. It's silverback

(11:06):
gorillas versus one hundred Men, Bill Belichick, and everybody's mad
at Saquon bark the head. Please tell me that since
we talked about that yesterday, you agree. Have you seen
it scrolling on social media? The one hundred men versus
Silver Bacuerrilla Sam, You've seen it.

Speaker 3 (11:21):
Ryan Rossillo was reposting stuff about it. I'm like, it's
everywhere now. Yeah, caught on like wildfire.

Speaker 2 (11:26):
It started with a couple thousand views and a couple million.
Now it's in the tens of millions of people reposting, retweeting,
and I guarantee it's probably already made it to like
late night monologues and stuff.

Speaker 1 (11:36):
Now. People are being sarcastic with it though, which I love.
It's a big debate. But the other big debate.

Speaker 2 (11:43):
Today that we should put the rest here on Fox
Sports Radio and we say this respectfully, is this Saquon
Barkley controversy. I'm sure you guys seen the footage. I'm
sure you saw it yesterday. The Eagles are at the
White House.

Speaker 1 (11:58):
This is the third rail. My man, My mom hit
me up, Steven, I saw your friend Dallas Goddard. There
isn't that your friend Dallas? Yeah?

Speaker 2 (12:08):
Mom, Yup. We had him on the show, Best Bros.
He was unover promised. He's a great guy. Steve, And
I heard Jalen Hurts wasn't there. Nah, he wasn't there.
It's all good. That's his prerogative, would it, Bobby Brown
sing his prerogative? Man, it's all good. I don't care
if Jalen Hurts wasn't there. In fact, I think this

(12:28):
whole conversation is going to revolve around Bobby Brown.

Speaker 1 (12:31):
His prerogative.

Speaker 2 (12:34):
But if I could say, I don't care if Jalen
Hurts wasn't there, do what he wants. He's still a
super Bowl champion. I'm not mad at him. Hey, For
all I know, he's busy. For all I know he
doesn't like Trump. It doesn't matter to me. He decided
not to go, that's his choice. But the way I
see it is, it's an honor, regardless of who's in power,

(12:56):
who's in charge, politics, socide. If someone's gonna honor me,
honor my team, I'm gonna take that honor and be
part of the team process. So I'm not mad at
Saquon Barkley, but I am gonna say, if you're one
of those people, giving him flack.

Speaker 1 (13:16):
I think you're part of the problem. Respectfully, you are
the problem.

Speaker 2 (13:21):
I want to say, I think you're pathetic, but I
wanna be kind about it and say I think you're
part of the problem.

Speaker 1 (13:27):
Say respectfully, meaning.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
Just like it's Jalen Hurts as progative to sit out,
same thing applies for Saquon Barkley if he wants to
go there and accept this. Why is he the bad
guy when all the other teammates are there. I'm fascinated
Saquon Barkley. Just so you know, the story's big. This
post that he put on x Twitter X thirty five

(13:53):
million views of this, he wrote, Lol, some people are
really upset because I played golf and flew to the
White House with the president. Maybe I just respect the office.
Not a hard concept to understand. I just golf with
Obama not too long ago, and look forward to finishing
my round with Trump. Now you gotta get my mentions

(14:15):
with all this politics and have an amazing day.

Speaker 1 (14:17):
Okay.

Speaker 2 (14:17):
So this guy runs his ass off, plays a legendary season,
wins a super Bowl, and he is supposed to sit
it out because the public wants him to.

Speaker 1 (14:27):
No, No, not the public half the public.

Speaker 2 (14:29):
Half the public wants him to and has a problem
with it, and now he has to answer and explain
that he was being honored, so he attended with the
rest of his team. I'm just fascinated how people think
their opinion matters on what others do. Like you said
the same way, yo, Janleen Hurts decided I don't want
to go.

Speaker 1 (14:49):
That's cool.

Speaker 2 (14:50):
Say Kwon Barkley wants to go take a stroll with
the president and chop it up, that's cool.

Speaker 1 (14:55):
Why is everyone saying a.

Speaker 2 (14:57):
Damn Busyboddy thinking their opinion of so someone else matters. Yeah,
it's their decision, and then it turns into a bullying
sort of.

Speaker 1 (15:08):
Situation. Meaning I've seen a lot.

Speaker 2 (15:10):
Of Hollywood, prominent Hollywood people speculating on Saquon Barkley and
his politics and the way. Oh I saw a picture
of a very prominent Hollywood figure, he said, oh, And
he posted a picture of Saquon Barkley and his white
wife as if to say, well, that explains it, or
how about he just took the honor because that was

(15:31):
his decision and maybe it made his family proud. Like
I said, if I was invited regardless of who was president.
I would take that honor because it would mean a
lot to me and my family and my hard work.
And I don't think it would say everything about my
political stance. I'm just there to be with my team
and celebrate this moment. I think it's Jalen Hurst didn't

(15:52):
have to Saquon chose two for you to have a
problem with it. You're the problem. And that's all I
really have to say say about it. I feel bad
for the guy that he even have to cump how so,
and that's all I gotta say about that.

Speaker 1 (16:08):
I think you pulled the Forrest Gump.

Speaker 2 (16:09):
Yes, and by the way, Forrest cup who met all
presidents regardless of party.

Speaker 1 (16:13):
Damn, I tie everything together. I think I'm gonna go
home now. Whether it's they had free doctor Pepper.

Speaker 2 (16:20):
Listen, I'm sure not everyone even here agrees with me,
but I just don't see it any other way.

Speaker 1 (16:24):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (16:25):
I can't even begin to see it another way. If
you told me we can meet President Trump or go
have a coffee or drink with Obama or Bush or
Clinton or anyone, or to me, it's an honor and
we lose that because you may not like the person
or their policies. There's people that hate Trump or hate Obama.
I would be honored to sit down and chop it

(16:45):
up with I want to know you busy bondies as
Rich put it right for all. You know, maybe Saquan
had had something to say.

Speaker 1 (16:52):
To Trump or a good conversation.

Speaker 2 (16:54):
Maybe you know, he felt like he could be impactful
and make some sort of change that was important to him.
You know, it doesn't un reasons and here you go
judging this guy, giving him all this flak for what
for playing his ass off and making his way to
the White House. That is an honor regardless. It reminds
me of Bill Maher, who I enjoy his show. Okay

(17:14):
neu rual, Oh girl, Okay Bill Maher who went to
go have dinner with the president. There were Democrats and
liberals that were like, why would you do that?

Speaker 1 (17:23):
And he's like, what do you want me to do?

Speaker 2 (17:26):
Like, I think it's great that Bill Maher sat down
with Trump and he's like, hey, I want to let's chat.

Speaker 1 (17:31):
Let's talk.

Speaker 2 (17:32):
I don't understand how people think it's okay to just
blindly be judgmental of well, oh you you you went to.

Speaker 1 (17:41):
The White house. It's hard to be in the middle.
It's hard to be neutral.

Speaker 3 (17:44):
And you're in the middle, you find yourself you know,
I know, but you find yourself very lonely because you
will do things that make other people on the one
side angry and then on the other side angry and
then not agree with you. There's more people quietly in
the middle.

Speaker 2 (17:57):
But I was saying, you know how many people I
talk to on a regular basis that say the same
thing you just said. Well, you know, I'm not really
super liberal, but I'm not like, I'm not like a
maga Republican. I'm like, there's so many people are in
the middle, which is why I'm shocked why people can't
just accept accept.

Speaker 3 (18:17):
This because the people on the far left and the
fart are very vocal and they want to they want
to shame you.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
So I feel like.

Speaker 2 (18:26):
Jimmy eat World. Now what I'm saying in the middle,
good one, it's the truth. Hit the laugh track. You
feel I feel like money, You feel yeah.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
In the middle, like moaning.

Speaker 2 (18:39):
To your really hard right leaning friends, you're a liberal
and to your liberal friends, you're some hard right leaning person.

Speaker 1 (18:46):
You find yourself lonely on an Island.

Speaker 2 (18:48):
But here's how it plays out, and here's why it's okay,
and here's why it's not that hard. I'm not mad
at Jalin Hurts, not even a little bit. That dude's handsome,
he's on top of the world. He's a super Bowl champion,
and he made his own decision as a man.

Speaker 1 (19:02):
Okay, not man at the.

Speaker 2 (19:03):
Guy one bit. I do feel like a man. He
missed out an opportunity to go.

Speaker 1 (19:08):
To the White House. Hey, he could have made a change.

Speaker 2 (19:10):
Maybe he could have had the the president's ear, but
that was his choice.

Speaker 1 (19:14):
Don't care, short hair.

Speaker 2 (19:16):
Don't care like Michelle Obama the same way she did
not care if Saquon goes.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
She did not go to the inauguration.

Speaker 2 (19:22):
And people criticize that, and it's like, hey, listen, why
do you care about other people's decisions? And Kveno's right,
and Sam, there is some credit to what you said.
When you're in the middle on a lot, everyone thinks
you're against them.

Speaker 1 (19:35):
You get all the arrows when you're in the middle.

Speaker 2 (19:36):
Because when uh, that's a that's a really good way
to put it. When Covino and I have these type
of conversations and we have them a lot on our
Patreon or with our friends you would have you'd be
shocked at our liberal friends like uh, you and Covena,
a couple of Trumpers, and then our Republican friends like
you guys, a couple la liberals.

Speaker 1 (19:54):
Like I'm like, how could we be both?

Speaker 2 (19:57):
Because you're in the middle, We're not. We're not the
little tortilla girls. I'm I'm okay being lonely. I'm an
outgoing introvert. I don't want to hang with you anyway.
So that's our take on it. And when Rich and
I agree, it's fact. I don't want to agree with Rich.
I hate agreeing with Rich. But I have no problem
with what Jalen Hurts did or chose to do. Have
no problem what with Saquon Barkley decided today. And as

(20:20):
I was standpointed out, by having that opinion, you're probably
upsetting everybody. Well, I think people more people should be
understanding of what we're trying to say here. It's it's
okay to be in the middle, and it's okay to
make those decisions.

Speaker 1 (20:34):
However you want to make them.

Speaker 2 (20:36):
And to be critical of Saquon Barkley when the guy
had one of the most memorable years of his life
to cap it off with this honor, and you're critical
of that.

Speaker 1 (20:49):
Again, I think you're the problem here.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
And to be critical of respect and to be critical
of Jalen Hurts are saying, you know what, I don't
feel right about it. I'm skipping out. That's also goes
both ways. But he didn't get to flack' that's the
only difference here in this conversation. Yeah, he didn't really
get the flack that Saquon Barkley did. And that is
pretty much our take. That's all I gotta say about that. Yeah,
well it's a big controversial story. Not to sound like

(21:13):
our good pal mister Travis, but that's our side of
the story and we have other fun stuff to get to. Yeah,
I'm going to talk about the rules of social media
in twenty twenty five. If your wife or girlfriend fights
with someone, do you have to unfollow them? And all that,
Because this has made it to the NFL. It's not

(21:35):
a free agent that you know unfollowed his team. But
there's a pretty funny story about unfollowing, and sadly, in
twenty twenty five, that means something. It sounds crazy to
an older generation, but unfollowing someone when you're in your
twenties or thirties is sort of you don't think a
lot of people unfollowed Saquon Barkley as today.

Speaker 1 (21:55):
I bet you they did, no, And I bet you
has more followers.

Speaker 2 (21:58):
I honestly, I bet you if you looked at Saquon's
follows and people that dropped them, I bet you his
charts off the charts.

Speaker 1 (22:07):
So we'll get to all that next right here on
Fox Sports. Trading is your.

he was on a unicycle. Then he picked up the

(23:14):
bowling pins. That's how we meant. Gotta get a straight
Cavino and Rich Fox Sports Radio. All this stuff about me,
Why don't they.

Speaker 1 (23:25):
Just let me live? Tell me why I don't need
de pission make mild decisions?

Speaker 2 (23:34):
Is Saquon Barkley's prerogative, just like a Shealin hurts his prerogative.
Bobby Brown, Oh yeah, I bought this for a penny too.
I still I have a nightmare the one day Columbia
House is gonna come after all of us. You're gonna
get a bill in the mail with interest of Wait
a minute, what it's more than my mortgage? Remember the
version or what song was it? When Mike Tyson was

(23:56):
dancing with Bobby Brown. Every little step I take, that's
what it was. Now speaking to Tyson. He'll be here
later on today Iron Mike Trivia giving away prizes. But everybody,
man at Saquon Barkley again, you're the problem. Respectfully, get
over it.

Speaker 1 (24:11):
Move on. It's his prerogative.

if I said you had the chance to be honored
and meet our next prope, you wouldn't take it.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
Next Pope? Yeah, you meet any pope? Why not?

Speaker 4 (24:48):
You know?

Speaker 2 (24:48):
That's the news today, right, Donald Trump saying he should
be the next pope.

Speaker 1 (24:53):
Which is all right, that's agree to.

Speaker 2 (24:54):
That just gives ammunition as to why maybe you want
to sit out.

Speaker 1 (24:58):
I get it, but.

Speaker 3 (24:59):
He's also the reason and Shador Sanders finally got drafted
in the fifth round.

Speaker 1 (25:02):
Oh yeah, now that was the story. Rich. If you
took a picture with the new pope, it would just
be you in the picture.

Speaker 2 (25:08):
Yeah, because I told you the pope has a scrambler.
I tried to selfie myself with the pope once. Didn't
work a long time ago. For all we know, Saquon
was trying to talk them out of it, right, So
everybody's so judgy man. Yeah, that's social media though, and
it's uh, you've said it in the past, and I'll
quote Kavino because I think we all felt this way.
Social media allowed everyone to think their opinion on everything mattered.

Speaker 1 (25:32):
Mm hmm. Yeah, your opinion on everything doesn't matter, maybe
to you, but but everyone's entitled to their wrong opinion.

Speaker 2 (25:38):
I guess it's like you the old expression like there's
no such thing as a wrong opinion. I doubt that
these days. I see a lot of opinions. I'm like, yeah,
that's just wrong. So there's a story about Travis Kelcey
and Ryan Reynolds. Oh boy, and we're gonna get to
that after your phone calls eight seven seven ninety nine
on Fox, say it's.

Speaker 1 (25:58):
Up to Emmitt, it's been a minute, heym, what's up, EMITTT.

Speaker 4 (26:02):
What's going on, guys, It's been a while. How are
you guys doing now? I think with this whole like
Saquon Trump thing, man, I mean, if it was me,
no matter what president, no matter who it is, someone
that big, I'm meeting them. But I also understand the
point of where like Jalen Hurts, he's like, you know,
I don't really want to meet him. You know, it's
it's his right as a man. You know, it's the
First Amendment, freedom of speech. But what I will say

(26:23):
about like everyone being outrage about this, Becauzino said it perfectly, respectfully.

Speaker 1 (26:27):
Stop it.

Speaker 4 (26:28):
You're in the wrong because America at this point, I
hate to like kind of get like political, but the
story's kind of forcing us to is America is super
divided at this point where we can't respect you know, like,
for example, I'm not saying you are like maybe because
you know, he may lean a little bit more left
or right in his views and maybe I don't agree
with that, and people get really mad at that and
they can't be friends and they can't hear the simple opinions.

(26:49):
I think that's why is getting all this hate and
all this heat, because even if it were Joe Biden
or Kamala Harris, it would be the same exact thing
from the other side. Look at him. And the thing
with is it's not like, oh, he's just hanging out
with Trump because he likes Trump. He literally said, I
love the office. I played golf with Obama. Like It's

(27:09):
just I respect them, and that's something that we should
all have, you know, we should all respect the President
of the United.

Speaker 2 (27:13):
States said man, yeah, and I appreciate it. Thank you, Emmit.
Emmon wraps it up so nicely, put a little bow
on and everything. Now Kelsey and Ryan Reynolds, man, this
is a friendship. I thought it was gonna flourish, but
perhaps I was wrong. We all know the backstory. I
don't need to get into the gossip of Blake Lively
and Ryan Reynolds, you know, went from the most loved

(27:35):
couple too.

Speaker 1 (27:37):
Ooh they did that.

Speaker 2 (27:38):
Baldoni got dirty and now all of a sudden it's
coming out, you know, allegedly is she the problem?

Speaker 1 (27:43):
And that Ryan.

Speaker 2 (27:43):
Reynolds is the story, though it's a hard one to follow.
To be honest, I haven't cared that much about it.
It's a big story, and I think the cliff notes
are his wife, Blake Lively. I'm sorry, did you say
his wife? Did I do a bort or did I trump?
He did like a trump?

Speaker 1 (28:00):
Be boor at his wife? He is my wife, his wife, Ryan.

Speaker 2 (28:08):
Reynolds's wife, Blake Lively, the actress, beautiful actress, worked with
this dude, justin Baldoni.

Speaker 1 (28:13):
There was all these sexual tension or allegations on set.
Blah blah blah.

Speaker 2 (28:16):
They're all sue each other for one hundreds of millions
of dollars. And Ryan Reynolds and Blake Lively are very
close with Taylor Swift. That's where that comes into play, right,
so close that when she started dating Travis Kelsey there
were double dates and apparently Ryan Reynolds and Kelsey followed
each other on social media, ooh, became pals.

Speaker 1 (28:38):
Romance.

Speaker 2 (28:39):
Now comes out that during all this drama with Ryan
Reynolds and Blake Lively versus that Baldoni guy, Blake Lively
said some pretty lay mass stuff like I got you know,
she was KAlSi and Taylor Swift was one of her dragons,
and like, if you messed with her, then you got
to deal with the Swifties like ah, and people are like, oh,

(28:59):
how week long story short? That stifled their friendship. So
now I don't know who even cares to look this up,
but Travis Kelcey stopped following Ryan Reynolds on Instagram.

Speaker 1 (29:14):
No, no, you want.

Speaker 2 (29:17):
How lame that this matters in twenty twenty five. But
here's my question to you. It is twenty twenty five,
so you could you know back in the nineties, remembering
people used to say it's the nineties, Well, we can't
act like it doesn't matter, because anytime someone's in a
contract negotiation or there's trouble in paradise with a player
and a team, what's the first thing they do? They

(29:38):
fo they unfollow that team or their team on social media,
and those things sounds ridiculous. Yeah, and it makes people
speculate like, ooh, it sounds ridiculous.

Speaker 1 (29:46):
Poor tourists stop following the Yankees.

Speaker 2 (29:48):
But those type of ridiculous things, could you know even
make like a Dan Buyer's update it's legit news. It'll
be like so Deebo Samuel stop following, like these are
sadly legit headlines.

Speaker 1 (29:59):
So I asked you.

Speaker 2 (30:02):
Do you unfollow people in the regular, like if someone
makes you, have you unfollowed anyone? Like I'm talking ex girlfriends, maybe,
like if you're.

Speaker 1 (30:13):
Let's say your.

Speaker 2 (30:14):
Girlfriend Jordan, yes, not Belichick's girlfriend, Jordan. Is it Cavino
or Belichick mine?

Speaker 4 (30:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (30:21):
Which which Jordan stopped an interview Belichick. Yeah, if your
girlfriend Jordan, let's say you're friends with her pal Jessica. Okay,
if you know Jessica's dude because you've been on double
dates and then they break up, do you then have
to be like I unfollow him?

Speaker 1 (30:40):
No? No, not at all. Is that lame?

Speaker 2 (30:43):
Yeah, it's very lame. But there are people I do unfollow,
So I can't say there's not an art to the unfollow,
as stupid as that may sound, because Yo, if you're
squeezing my shoes the wrong way and you get personal
with me on social media, I don't know you, and
you're like just trying to look for my ten in
a negative way.

Speaker 1 (31:01):
Following for that, there's a hosty of to play those plays,
those games. VJ Husky The Weekend guy, the big poppy
of Vanilla. Yeah, VJ.

Speaker 2 (31:10):
Apparently there's people around here, like if he gets in
a big sports debate with someone, he's like, unfollow. I mean,
I'm not gonna do that to a colleague just because
we got into a debate. But I'm saying, if some
guys saying some hateful or crossing the line sort of
stuff where it's offensive to me or my family or
my girlfriend or whatever, or my kid or like, who
is this guy crossing the line?

Speaker 1 (31:31):
Unfollow?

Speaker 2 (31:31):
I don't need that negativity in my life, Danny J.
We get that a lot in sports and social media.
So I'm not saying there isn't a time and place
to unfollow, because there absolutely is. Is my I don't
follow her. You think I follow her. I don't want
to see that unfollowed her. I'm sure at some point
I don't remember doing it. It wasn't a monumental moment
where I had like an unfollow party, but I did

(31:54):
because I didn't want to see what was going on
in her life. I wanted to move forward with mine.
So there's an art to it, and I think there's
dues and don'ts to make this. Kelsey unfollows Ryan Reynolds
thing a headline is ridiculous.

Speaker 1 (32:07):
Not to mention.

Speaker 2 (32:08):
The other side of the story is Blake Lively and
Taylor Swift. They're still friends according to social media. I
mean they still follow each other. Right, that's the other
side note of the story. I think there's an art
to it. I think there's dues and don'ts. I don't
put much weight into this one. Hey, Danny J would
you unfollow? Here's an interesting one. Let's say one of
your siblings got a divorce. Would you unfollow their ex

(32:30):
husband or wife?

Speaker 5 (32:31):
Hm?

Speaker 1 (32:32):
No, I don't think so.

Speaker 2 (32:34):
If someone asked me unless less Yeah, I say, unless
I was asked to or they wronged my family.

Speaker 1 (32:40):
And I'll tell you why too. I'll tell you why.

Speaker 2 (32:42):
There are friends to this day that I don't talk
to because they would always give me updates on what
exes were doing, because they still kept up with my
ex not my ex wife, like ex girlfriends and stuff
like that. Right, They're like, Oh, I saw your ex
girlfriend was doing this and this and that. I'm like, hey, dude, respectfully,
can you stop giving me updates?

Speaker 1 (33:00):
I don't care. I don't care.

Speaker 2 (33:02):
And then he would still give me updates and I'm like,
you know what, you want to be friends with her?

Speaker 1 (33:07):
Go right ahead?

Speaker 2 (33:07):
Then then we're not friends because I don't want to
hear about it. So I think if someone asks you
kindly and respectfully, hey, rich, can you unfollow my excuse
or just stop talking about it? Yeah, then I think
you should well with that, said a great follow Dan
byer hellst Hey, guys, the best follow uh.

Speaker 6 (33:27):
The Sacramento Kings follow the lead of Doug Christie when
Mike Brown was fired, and now Doug Christie's the full
time i'd coach in Sacramento. The interim tag has been
dropped by the team. He gets a multi year deal
to be their head coach. They were twenty seven and
twenty four when Christy took over the job after Brown's dismissal. Tonight,
four game fives. There are three in the Eastern Conference,

(33:48):
so we've got some wacky times, including the Bucks and
Pacers coming up at the top of the hour. Pacers
up three to one in that series. Pistons and Knicks
will play at seven thirty Eastern time, Magic and Celtics
eight thirty Eastern, and Boston Clippers and Nuggets ten o'clock eastern.
That series is tied up at two a piece. For
over forty years, tirek has been helping customers find the
right tires for how, what and where they drive. Ship

(34:10):
Fast and free back by free Road has a protection
with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation tierreq dot
com the way tire buying should be. The forty nine
ers intended George Kittle have agreed the terms on a
four year extension where thirty six excuse me, with seventy
six point four million dollars With forty million dollars guaranteed.
Kittle's average annual salary of nineteen point one million dollars

(34:31):
is the highest in the NFL. Forty nine ers have
also signed tackled DJ Humphries to a deal. Vikings gave
linebacker Andrew van Ginkel a one year extension worth twenty
three million dollars. The Commander's cut kickers in Gonzales and
signed former Colts kicker Matt Gaates a one year deal
with four million dollars. UFL wide receiver Samson Nakua, the
brother of Pukin Nakua, suspended one game by the UFL.

(34:55):
He's a member of the Michigan Panthers this past weekend.
He slapped a Saint Louis fan after the game and
was given a one game suspension.

Speaker 1 (35:02):
Today the city deserve it? Or was it an a
slap or face?

Speaker 6 (35:06):
Last it was a face slap leaning over? But you
also then you wonder, Okay, do we have a little
w W E.

Speaker 1 (35:13):
Work here going on?

Speaker 6 (35:15):
I would think slapping a fan more than a one
game suspension, right, Like, but they're going to give them
a one game.

Speaker 2 (35:21):
But maybe they try to disting themselves as they crazy lead.

Speaker 1 (35:25):
Yeah, they could be like, yo, you get away, we
slap fans. You gotta watch the Michigan Panthers. They hit fans.
That was the only fan there.

Speaker 3 (35:31):
I know that is actually not true because I know
this has a strong Yeah, yeah, there's a couple. I
apologize to Saint Louis Iowa.

Speaker 1 (35:39):
Sam. Sorry, Sis. I do love you, Saint Louis. I do.

Speaker 2 (35:42):
Yeah, how many unfollows did you just get from Saint
Louis fans? No Saint Louis followers for Sam anymore? Thank you,

Speaker 1 (37:35):
Of the Day.

Speaker 2 (37:36):
For over forty years, Tyrak has been helping customers find
the right tires for how, what and where they drive.
Ship Fast and free back by free Road has protection
with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation tyraq dot
com the way tire buying should be. And Pajevski has
one of those names, almost like a Shrzhevski or the
quarterback drafted by the Saints where the name Shuck, where

(37:57):
it's like.

Speaker 1 (37:58):
That's shaw shoff, shof shock. Yeah, he's got a jam
in the middle of their jam.

Speaker 2 (38:06):
Jamski to me, Jamski, I feel terrible didn't you used
to wear those foot seat of jamskis when you're a
little That's my favorite, the ones that you were like
Whinny the poh ones. Dude, I have me and my
son have matching Minecraft and Pokemon Pa jamskis. So before
we get into SASANKI your boy, Danny G I do
want to give props. First of all, I got to

(38:28):
say props to Pittsburgh. That's really what this is the
city of Pittsburgh. Because they put French fries on their sandwiches. No,
because we've had great times there. It's true we have
great friends there. But you know what I really respect
about Pittsburgh.

Speaker 1 (38:44):
Oh that's Sidbream and Paul Skins both have great mustaches.

Speaker 2 (38:48):
No. I respect Andy Van sl Like and Cecilio Guante.
Oh you got your earring inspiration from Barry Bond's. I
respect that too. I just respect that when it comes
to their sports teams. Oh, you respected Terry Bratch. I
never took it home and he just left. I respect
his whole Cogan haircut. I respect his Ben Franklin hair do.
I respect that they've stayed consistent in uniform with their

(39:10):
color choices, Like when you think of Pittsburgh, you think
of black and yellow. You really do. And I think
that's so cool. And I don't understand why other.

Speaker 1 (39:17):
Cities Willie Stargel Parker with those hats.

Speaker 2 (39:20):
Dude, that we are family sort of vibe that they
got and everything is I know, if you live in Pittsburgh,
you need two colors, black and yellow and everything goes
on everything Steelers pirates, I get it now. Fun fact
I learned this Danny g when I was at an
LA Kings game. I'm not an LA guy, I'm a
New York guy that moved out here. I forgot that
the LA Kings were the same color as the Lakers.

(39:43):
And the fun fact goes when Jerry Buss sold the
Kings to get their own identity plus, because of the
popularity of the Raiders merchandise, the LA Kings dropped the
Lakers colors and actually went to Raiders colors.

Speaker 1 (39:58):
Yeah, they wanted some of that NWA money. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (40:00):
So why am I giving promps to Pittsburgh Because the
Chicago White Sox revealed their City Connect jerseys and they're
Chicago Bulls inspired and I really think they should lean
into these harder because they look like Chicago Bulls colors.
They are black and red, and I'm like, hey, the
White Sox should just lean into that more and stick

(40:21):
with that a little red, start making it a little uniform.

Speaker 1 (40:24):
To the basket companies are blue. It goes totally against you, but.

Speaker 2 (40:27):
That's why they could win when it comes to that.
I think they try to incorporate this a little more.
I think more city should do. You know the there's
a little similar to this in New York. The Knicks,
the Mets, and the Islanders are blue orange. Yeah, so props.
If you haven't seen them, look them up. They're really cool.

Speaker 1 (40:42):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (40:42):
I love the City Connects. In fact, Washington still might
have one of the better ones. I like the Mets one.
So City Connects your favorite at Rich Davis at Steve Kabino.
We got more Next, we're gonna talk a little bit
about Sasaki and his bathroom Hank Tight
