Go in there and spend that one day. What does
your family grow? Anything from a rugula? It is any
nice way.
Speaker 1 (01:59):

I will be generous enough to give away a Swiggy
for the first person that knows that movie. First person
(02:22):

Lowan Crown knows. He's on your updates spot. He's getting

Tani MVP Bobblehead Night for the first forty thousand people

people freaking out. He's gonna go to the Apple store
(02:46):
right next to down your stadium. My true story.
Speaker 4 (02:49):
I left CoA in his stroller in for a place
in line this morning. I hope the people pushing it.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Do you know again ad D Radio, It's finest. Did
you know what dad got arrest? Did he went to
run an errand and he left his kids at the
McDonald's playplace? Did he went for a job interview or meeting?
And he's like, no one'll know. He just dumped his
kids at the McDonald's like bullpit and he thought no
one would notice.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
That's what our moms used to do with us at
toys r us.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
That's true. Hey, look around for a while. I'm gonna
go to cal door, so hey, drive safe and look
out for stories later on because I'm predicting. You know,
we're talking about ruined moments. It's supposed to be a
nice family night. I think some fights there's gonna be
thrown down. You know people for these babble heads.
Speaker 4 (03:32):
Yeah, it's the first forty thousand, and these are so exclusive.
One of the reasons why a lot of people save
one from their family and then they'll sell. They'll resell
the other for triple the price, so so what it
should cost.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
We'll keep you posted on that.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
But speaking of baseball and ruined moments, all because Westbrook,
he ruined the great game with a weak ass foul.
He ruined Jokic's triple double, He ruined Jokich's sixty one
point night because the Nuggets ended up losing. Other ruined
moments in the world of sports and life. Now rich
(04:08):
you meant that you mentioned Andy Chavis's catch. It's forgotten
because the Mets lost that series, so a ruined moment.
If they would have won, that would have went down,
like you said, as one of the greatest catches of
all time. I have a story that happened in two
thousand and one in the World of Sports two thousand
and one, And I'll tell you that right after the
phone call. You know what, before we get to the
phone calls about ruined moments? Do we have a winner for?
(04:31):

Speaker 2 (05:04):
Got to answer to Rich's question?
Speaker 1 (05:06):
What movie?
Speaker 7 (05:07):
The movie is one of my all time favorites. It
is My Blue, My Blue Martin.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Steve Martin is in the Witness Protection Program. He's he's
like Henry Hill basically, yeah, I have seen that, and he's,
you know the guy, his parole officer. I guess is
Rick Morani's great eighties movie. And he goes to a
supermarket in the middle of nowhere. Think about it. He's
like a New York East Coast Italian guy.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
He's a mobster.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Yeah, and he goes to the supermarket and he's looking
for a rugela.
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Congratulations, brother, hang on the line. We'll send a swiggy
out to you.
Speaker 7 (05:39):
Yeah, you missed my favorite line from that movie. When
they ask him why he robbed the truck. Thirty nine books,
he says, in case I want to read it more
than once.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
The best life, Sarah, you have thirty nine cove whatever?
What if I want to read it more than once?
Speaker 2 (05:56):
All right?
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Ruined moments?
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Can you know?
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Want to go to Matt and not Alaska. I want
to tell my story. Tell your story. The Matt could
stand by, So Mattie, Matt and everybody else. Eight seven,
seven ninety nine on Fox, We're getting to your phone
calls other ones that come to mind, sports or personally.
In two thousand and one, you remember the Yankees' Nightmare.
(06:21):
I think the world for the first time was pulling
for the Yankees to win the World Series. It was
a rough year, nine to eleven. Just happened, Yankees got
a chance to win it all. Alfonso Soriano hit a
go ahead home run off of Kurt Shilling in Game
seven against the Diamondbacks, and the Yankees brought it up
(06:41):
last night.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Paul o'ial was talking about it last night.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Yankees were playing the Diamondbacks as we speak, and even
he said, like that home run, had they won the
World Series, would have gone down as one of the
most historical go ahead home runs in World Series history.
Alfonso Soriano would have forever been a Yankee legend. But
he went on, Meanwhile, people forget he was the Yankees.
(07:03):
People forget not only that he was a Yankee, like
they forget this moment because they want to forget the
fact that the Yankees lost.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
It was a nothing burger.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
What could have been the most heroic moment ever is
almost forgotten completely. Not to rub it in being that
you're a Yankees fan. Take me back twenty four years
a we mid game, late innings, when did Soriano hit
the bomb?
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Again?
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Was trying to forget I got the facts here though.
Crucial Game seven, Soriano hit an O two pitch from Shilling,
given the Yankees the lead and eventually they lost the game.
It was an eighth inning, okay, and it was I
think they went three to two or something like that,
ahead the Yankees two to one, went ahead two to one.
(07:50):
Your facts about your own team. That's what I hit
about Yankees fans. They win so much, they're like, I
don't know the details, it was just another year. Well
I'm proving the point too. These are moments that you
forget because they were unimportant to you as a fan.
It's a ruined moment. What could have been. It should
have been a historical moment for Yankees fans ended up
being ruined by Gonzo's weak ass blooper. That was the
(08:13):
best weak ass hit and for Dad, get it. There's
two sides every story. For the Diamondbacks, man, you got
the best of Mo Rivera with a bloop single. Whoo
would he do when they win? But that moment, which
was I remember the moment obviously like no way, Sorriana
and everyone's cheering going wild. They lost forgotten. That's like
(08:34):
one of the most forgotten moments, so forgotten. Fans even
forget and for real, that's like the train. You're asking
me the score in the moment and everything else. I
don't forget the moment, but I don't try to relive
that day. I don't try to relive that game seven.
I just know in my head, in my heart that
Soriano was this close to becoming a here legend, a hero,
(08:55):
a hero John and Idaho falls. What's up?
Speaker 2 (08:57):
John?
Speaker 7 (08:59):
Yeah, the tough pool game with child Woodson in a
fumble hit on Tom Brady. That was a great moment,
and they took it back with the tough rule.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Raiders would have went to the super Bowl or advanced, right.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
And yeah, well they had a super Bowl caliber team.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
They would have advanced in the next round. And by
advancing to the next round, that Raiders team had a
trajectory of winning that. You know, keep in mind they
were like a year removed from being in the super Bowl,
so that that Raiders team got the short end of
that Woodson would have been you know, that would have
been a memorable Raiders moment. Ends up the creation of
a weak tuck roll. Matt in Alaska?
Speaker 2 (09:32):
What's up?
Speaker 7 (09:32):
What not?
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Matt? What's going on?
Speaker 7 (09:34):
Boys?
Speaker 2 (09:34):
Hey?
Speaker 7 (09:35):
I heard on the Dan Byer Show that some Los
Angeles Dodgers fans got to the game eight hours early
only to find out that the Dodgers are actually giving
bubbleheads to everyone that comes tonight. Talk about being angry. Anyways,
my moment is, uh.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Oh my god, that's the worst.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Yeah, because I read forty thousand this morning, I.
Speaker 7 (09:54):
Did do I did to the Dan Byers show, said
that everybody's getting one, not Dan Byra, Gottlieb, Jim Joyce,
first base umpire dude.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Number one answer.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Yeah, a caller dude.
Speaker 7 (10:13):
Now not in the record books because the.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
One answer on the board, without a doubt. Jim Joyce,
who again he he couldn't have been more sympathetic to
the mistake. He admitted his error in that moment. I
always argue, but he went with his gut and what
he thought in the moment was right. I would argue,
could you know that perhaps that made it even a
bigger moment in sports history? So maybe there's like a
layer where it's like I couldn't name all the perfect
(10:37):
games in MLB history, but I can name the one
that was robbed that was a heartbreaker.
Speaker 4 (10:42):
Yeah, well, you're putting it in the Pete Rose category
where maybe it was better that he didn't get in
because he got more attention.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
Maybe so, And they both handled it so well, like
the way, yeah, the way they handled that was was
almost like shocking.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
Baseball should have fixed stat thought, why can't they?
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Yeah, even if it was before that fixed it.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Honestly, Daddy, sometimes you forget it's a game and there's
no like statute limitations. It's not we're not in court.
This is not the you know, charges against someone. Hey,
we realize it was wrong. This replay now. I know
you can say that's a slippery slope of like, well,
then let's replay this and that. But why can't we
just all agree it was the perfect game? Jim Joyce
(11:28):
ruin the perfect game. Man, that was tough. But they
go down and a lifetime like moment, you know, and
were forever You and I were watching that Rich together,
We were Cavino. They were there forever linked, much like
you know for years Mookie Wilson and Bill Bucken would
do autograph signings together. Jim Joyce and Galaraga are forever
(11:49):
almost like uh brothers in a way, right, like connected Yeah,
connected through history for sure.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Rich.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
I know you have like personal other personal examples, but again,
it happens in sports, it happens in life. Someone has
a little too much to drink at the family reunion.
I'm in a good mood, So I'm in a good mood.
So I don't want to talk about how Spot gave
the worst best man speech at my wedding, like.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
He made your wife.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
It was like a failed roast instead of the best
man speech. But we want to talk about that. Oh yeah,
we don't have to talk about it. Let's get back
to the phone. Let's go to Todd in Missouri.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Hey, Todd, Hey, Todd, how much we Brick messed that up?
Speaker 8 (12:27):
Man?
Speaker 5 (12:27):
He took the shot on the possession before miss the
lay up, or they could have just ran the fox.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
So wait, say it again, but.
Speaker 5 (12:36):
Just how much west Brook? He missed that lay up
on the possession right before he could have just ran
the clock and or at least not missed the lay up.
So he just really messed that up.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Yeah, and the coach defended him almost, you know, doubled
down on both of his mental errors. So he just
had a rough night. Man, I don't know what was
going on there. Drew and Sincy, what's up? We'll take
like three more?
Speaker 2 (12:56):
What's up?
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Drew?
Speaker 7 (12:58):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Guys?
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Hey?
Speaker 6 (13:00):
Super Bowl fifty one Patriots and Falcons. Obviously most known
for the Falcons blowing the game. But deep in the
fourth quarter, Julio Jones had one of the most incredible catches.
I don't know if you all remember.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
I do remember this.
Speaker 6 (13:13):
Seven yards down the sideline, perfect, most of the guy
got both seat and bounds. And what did the Falcons do?
Sack penalty, punt and the rest is history.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Yeah, when you I remember that moment only because that's
that's the part you remember where all the Falcons needed
to do was put any points on the board just
to distance themselves a little more, and the fact that
they weren't field goal range and somehow sack penalty just
pushed themselves back. I was like, oh my god, the
Patriots are going to do this. That was terrible. Uh,
let's go to Neil in Tennessee, Neil Covin.
Speaker 6 (13:47):
And Rich you guys. I don't know if it would
have made a difference.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
But the Weber time out in the championship game.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Say it again, the Weber Chris, Yeah, that's always going
to be we talked about for sure. I actually, you know,
our last call that reminded me of something else when
I was playing high school football.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
There was.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
I forget what the play was, but it was a
winning touchdown on our end. It was a JV game
and then there was a clipping call on me that
took it back. We ended up losing that game, so
I was like, oh, it was like this heroic touchdown
at my buddy Tom scored and everyone's mad at you. Dude,
when you get called for something like that, everyone's mad
(14:31):
at you for that, you feel like the worst because
you ruin the party. You're like the like the tight
end on the Ravens. Yeah, I was like, what Mark Andrews.
You know, there are sometimes when something gets blown there
is a silver lining because you never know. Is that
Tom Brady?
Speaker 9 (14:48):
You know?
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Tom Brady tells that story on his documentary, the Story
of the Chinese Farm, Or how in the moment you
might think something's bad, but it might be good, and
something good might actually be bad. A great what do
you call a great fable? There was the New York Yankee.
I can't quite remember which Yankee, you'll fill in the blanks.
(15:11):
He would have been on a plane that crashed in
New York had the Yankees won the World Series, and
he forever thanks Marianna Rivera for blowing that game. There
was a Yankee let me explain Game seven, the Yankees lose,
he was going to his plane. Let's just say his
travel arrangement changed because it was wait around for the
(15:32):
parade or go home. Wasn't that the Seth MacFarland story too.
Seth MacFarland just overslept for nine to eleven, But Yankee
avoids plane crashed two thousand and one, not nine to eleven.
Remember a month later a plane crashed in the rockaways
off of the right off of JFK. There was a
New York Yankee that was going to be on that plane,
(15:54):
but said, I don't need to be on that plane anymore.
No parade, I'm.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Going That's the story of Enrique Wilson.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Credit Wilson.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Yeah, he was a great player.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
He's just a utility guy and he played big, played
well for for the Yanks. He credits Mariano's blown save
for saving his life. He was booked on a plane, Yeah,
flight five eighty seven. He was booked on a plane
that crashed every Yeah flight five eighty seven.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
And because the Yankees weren't gonna have a celebrating prey like,
he booked the plane ticket assuming the Yankees we're gonna
win and have a parade. When the Yankees lost Game seven,
He's like, I'm going back to his home country so ruined.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Yeah, I believe he's Dominica.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Dominican ruined moments in sports. We saw one last night.
You know, Russell Westbrook feels bad enough, but the fact
that he also ruined that night for Joker makes it worse.
And that's really what it comes down to. So we
gave you plenty of examples, and we'll take one last
(16:51):
phone call out. He could chime in at Covino and
writch and just for the record, I've looked at my
phone eight times during that conversation realizing I don't have
a phone.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Yep, Rich broke phone today.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
I was like, you know that Yankee, hold on me,
oh phone? All right, Uh, let's say hi to Jason
and Missouri and then Spot's got midweek major coming up.
What's up, Jason, Thanks for hanging with Covi on Rich, Hey.
Speaker 7 (17:11):
For me, and don't ask me why I'm a Seahawks
fan in the middle of Missouri. But this stupid pass
play at the end of the Super Bowl when you've
got how would dude.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
That would make me sick? Listen, my team has lost
a lot of dumb games, but that, to me, Seahawks
fans honestly must think about that way more than we think.
That really was one of the most sickening ways to
lose a game.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
It really was.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
You have Marshawn Lynch. I don't need to repeat it.
It just if you're a Seahawks fan, how do you
not annoyingly think of that? That's just a name that's got.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
To be number one.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
As far as like what's going you probably still wake
up some days wondering if you could if that really happened.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
Pete Carroll better make wiser decisions with Ashton Genty, I.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
Know, right, So I think that's where they're going.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
We got to talk about him too, if we have time.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
This is my so.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
By the way, he's smaller than I thought I was
looking up. He's only five nine, Danny dude nine.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
He's not big in stature, He's not a tall guy,
but he's built like a rot brisk a brick. They
in fact, they showed him at his pro day.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
He's a brick. You should have.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
Sawt like people were blown away because you know it's
they're just basically in their speedos running around and he
looks like he's built out of bricks.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Damn.
Speaker 1 (18:27):
All right, Well listen, we're gonna talk some NFL as well.

Before we hand things over to the number one and
only host of the segment, we roll the two big
red love dice in the main studio.
Speaker 1 (21:53):
Yeah, buddy, I just rolled the twelve, So Rich, I
don't know if I want to have you go.
Speaker 4 (21:57):
For us not your day, Rich, Well, yeah, that means
Covino's gonna get the first take. And now, ladies and gentlemen,
the most famous person besides Judy Bloom from Scotch Plains
New Jersey, Spotty Boy, Hey guys, thanks fun.
Speaker 9 (22:12):
All right, all right, So one Atlanta Hawks fan is
gonna have to stay off his feet for a while
after Tuesday night's game. During an intermission in the Hawks
versus Trailblazers game at State Farm Arena, two fans were
invited on the court to participate in a basketball version of.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Tic tac toe.
Speaker 9 (22:27):
So, while one of the opponents was about to hit
a few layups before his competitor, his knee gave out
while he was approaching the basket. He was running up
and just like immediately went to the ground and slid down.
Fan was laying down the court clutching his knee in
pain with an apparent acl injury.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
Ah my neck.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Now, I was gonnay quest before Carino goes Midweek Major.
I know you get first take on this, but just
for people that don't understand, if you get a layup,
then you get to run and put an extra o down.
So it's like a race of layups because if you
get a shot that you get to play.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Tiktak took.
Speaker 9 (23:00):
Yeah, So the game, so there's urgency, is there's urgent
rid right, So that he was running up, slip fell,
Emergency personnel came out, had to like surrounded him on
the court.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
The game had to be paused, like they couldn't even
continue with the game.
Speaker 9 (23:13):
And something that was just supposed to be in the intermission.
Even the nearby players were just staring at this whole
thing in disbelief. The man is actually a season ticket holder.
The Hawks that said they reached out to him said
that he's in good spirits and expects the full recovery.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
No word on who's cover of the medical bills. So
Midweek or major, major, because it brings up so many
questions like who should cover the medical bills, and that's
the Hawks in our opinion, in my opinion, but there's
so many major moments here. He's a season ticket holder.
How embarrassing like he falls and it looks like he slips, which,
(23:47):
in my opinion, again gives more reason for the Hawks
to cover these bills because I think they could be
facing potential lawsuit because he could be like, you know,
I got hurt in this game. Look on the video
I slipped. And I think it also leads to another
conversation of is it even worth it having the fans
out there on the court, Like have the unicycle person
with the balls on their head, it's just as good,
(24:08):
Like I think this may lead to other conversations where
it's not even worth it. I think it's major. Yeah,
I think the Atlanta Hawks. I think the Atlanta Hawks
need to cover one of this. It's all optics, right,
You're a billion dollar franchise. You have personnel medical teams
on staff for the players. This is a give this
(24:31):
guy free medical coverage. I have your people take care
of his acl on. But I think it is the
last we see if something specifically like this, But I
think you know, a basketball team is a great example
of someone that does have on standby on retainer. I
guess you would say a whole crew of medical personnel
cover this guy's bills. And with the little slippy dippy
as I wrote that slippy dippy, the fact that body
(24:54):
said his knee gave out, but it looks like he slips. Yeah,
it looks like there might have been some sweat or condensation.
So with that being said, Hawks cover it, do the
right thing, And I agree that there is something a
little embarrassing. It reminds me a couple of weeks ago,
almost as embarrassing. I was at a Knicks game a
few weeks ago with my buddy Tracy, and he threw
up on the court.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
You're so embarrassed. True story.
Speaker 4 (25:17):
By the way, Rich, the latest valuation for the Hawks
sea three point eight billion.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
You're a three point eight billion dollar company. Essentially, Hey
for the guys, can they handle it and make it
right and avoid a pr nightmare?
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Kind of a bad reflection on humanity. Though humans can
no longer step floot on a court without hurting themselves,
I know.
Speaker 9 (25:36):
They're very slippery the game is over all, right, we
soked yesterday how Brown's owner Jimmy Haslam commented on DeShawn
Watson being a swing and amiss for the team when
they acquired him as with a five year, two hundred
and thirty million dollar contract.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
Well.
Speaker 9 (25:50):
Watson appears to have fired back on social media after
the comments went public, with a cryptic post on his
Instagram filled with photos of him training at the team's
gym with the cap maybe if I weren't built for this,
I'd let it phaze me. Watson is still recovering from
his torn actch lists his achilles and no whord on
whether he'll start next season, but Cleveland does have the
second overall picked in the upcoming draft, so we'll see
(26:13):
how that plays out midweek or major everything, major.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
Major, on every level. You got an owner talking about
a player that's still on the team. Awkward burgers, right,
You see a sense of honesty that is refreshing because
we're not even It's refreshing and awkward, like wow, he's
talking that kind of smack about a current player, a
player that deserves to be smacked talked about. In my opinion,
so much expectation placed on him to be one of
(26:40):
the worst quarterbacks in the league and embarrassment talking about embarrassing,
that's an embarrassment in itself, and then he has the
nerve to fire back. Dude, you stink everything about this
is major. I think it's major because the guy is
still on the team. But I wonder if there is
a way for Deshaun Watching to massage the situation. Oh wow,
(27:06):
just sort of again. That's why I'm saying, I don't know, dude,
when you already have a bad reputation, like I would
just deal with it. I wouldn't be talking back at
the owner and firing back or anything like that. He's
in this position, collect your money because of a reputation
that he sort of set for himself. Collect your money,
and you know, be thankful that you sort of bamboos
(27:27):
with everyone. And dude, do we love comeback stories? Of course? Hey,
you know how you shut everybody up? Deliver all right?
Speaker 9 (27:36):
As you knows, have left Oakland as they prepare to
move to their future home in Las Vegas, but they
have their few season pit stop in Sacramento at Sutter
Health Park. Venue shares as a minor league venue that
shares it with the river Cats capacity of fourteen thousand. Well,
one feature they seem to be missing is a bathroom
for the visiting team. You may have there was a
(27:58):
clip floating around where Cubs outfield their uh say, a
Suzuki was forced to run across the outfield.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
They called it the Walk of shame.
Speaker 9 (28:04):
In the Walk of shame in between innings to make
a trip to the bathroom because the visiting dugout is
not connected to the clubhouse. In addition, apparently the A's
are gonna have to use a metal shed to have
their press conferences. So so far things are going great
and Sacramento they lost eighteen to three in their home
opener midweek or major?
Speaker 1 (28:21):
I think it's major. These are Major League ball players, right.
You don't have these things figured out before you have
the Cubs come and visit.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
It's embarrassing.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
They did work for a couple of months straight on
upgrading the stadium to at least, you know, have it
somewhere near.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
You would think a bathroom would be important.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
But I'm just honestly like, especially for these high profile players,
I mean it would, it would.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
I know the games are early to two hours and
something twenty minutes.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
It would look it would look trashy, but like put a.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
Portage out of the dughouse like something, grab a metal
bucket from that shed and they can go in that.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
How about that? Yeah, that's fine.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Cubs are dominate and looking really strong out there, though.
Speaker 2 (29:03):
Nice job spot, so we got first, but it had
to go. It's all good.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
We're gonna actually be out there on the thirteenth. Rich
and I are going just to watch a game. I
hope there's a bathroom we could use, man, I hope
there's a place for a Francisco Lindordo drop a deuce.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
He's got to trot to cross the outfit.
Speaker 4 (29:24):
Man.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
We know what he's doing.
Speaker 9 (29:25):
Bad, all right, stick him with baseball. I'm not everyone
a fan of the torpedo bats that are all the
rage with the Yankees and is probably going to be
spreading to other teams.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
Well.
Speaker 9 (29:33):
Philly's reliever Matt Strom posts on his x account sharing
his thoughts which just seemed to be catching win and
going viral. He said, let them use whatever they want,
but let's allow pitchers to use whatever hitters have in
the on deck circle and not check us like we're
criminals every time we walk on or off the field.
He said, I'm just a picture, but I'm assuming better
grip helps you swing harder. So he's looking for some
(29:55):
fair balance here between pitchers and hitters.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
He said.
Speaker 9 (30:00):
The Umps conduct numerous hand checks on pitchers throughout the
game for sticky substances. He's not saying, he specifically said,
not looking to bring back some sticky stuff, but we
will still want to have that.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Better grip, just like the batter's man, Matty Major.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
That's called cheating, and everything that they did with the
bat is legal on every level. Stop comparing it with
steroid usage and anything like that. Pine tar is also
a legal substances the beginning of time with baseball, So
to all of a sudden expect pitchers to be allowed
to spider tack or pine tar anything a Farnes ubs
(30:34):
is on a ball, just to balance out the torpedo bat.
It's just silly talk. Yeah, I agreed. I think it's
I think it's weak.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
I think you know what.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
I think it's a week too because there's still this
misconception by some bozos that the Yankees or anyone for
that matter, is doing anything wrong. You know who, I
feel bad for the most not the Yankees, not the
creators of the torpedo. Bet I feel bad for all
the parents of these like over zealous travel based fall teams.
Every little kid's probably like, I need a torpedo, bet,
I need a torpedo. You know, there's a speculation, you
(31:06):
know how they gave credit to that the physicist that
designed it. Let me, Easton had a version of a
torpedo bat years ago. Yeah, the more you're seeing things,
it was like under our nose the whole time.
Speaker 9 (31:20):
All right, let's see, I mean it's in full swing,
so we'll go to March Madness. It can be quite
a time for college hoops fans, but not so great
for their relationships. I know, pretty obvious there, but in
a recent survey of a thousand couples, apparently twenty eight
percent of fans have said that fights have been started
because of the tournament and as far to go, as
far as one sportsbook betty bet Us is offering the
(31:42):
College Basketball Championship twenty twenty five. Prenuptial agreement might be
a bit late for that, but the Hoops and Harmony
contract has couples decide how many games are allowed to watch.
Each party has to agree to coordinate viewing schedules, prioritize
shared activities and responsibilities, and apparently, among the gen Z range,
which is eighteen to twenty four, they one in four
(32:02):
have said they've thought about ending their relationship because of
the tournament. Twenty six percent of couples say that watching
habits sports watching habits are a.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
Relationship deal breaker.
Speaker 9 (32:13):
And people and how they feel neglected during games, and
twenty four percent of men are unwilling to budge on
their viewing habits.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
So's not in a great time for dating.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Midweker major Well, in the grand scheme of relationships, it's major,
But I think the story's kind of mid because I
think young people, you said, from the ages of eighteen
to twenty four, they're willing to break up over anything.
The relationships don't matter. I guess yeah, they're so fickle.
If someone blows their nose the wrong way, they have
(32:43):
to move on because they can't get past it. So
I'm not surprised by this now. This is week saws
first of all. Yeah, but it is major that relationships
can't withstand anything. If you're fighting over every march, mad
this game and guess what, get a life honestly, get
a life. I do think you have to date someone
a full calendar year before you marry them, because I
(33:06):
think you do need to see their habits.
Speaker 3 (33:07):
But how about this, when you're like vetting someone to date, Hey,
do you like March Madnis?
Speaker 2 (33:11):
Do you like sports? If they say yes, then that's
a good starting point.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
Yeah, no doubt so.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
Like they should understand that you want to watch those games,
and you should invite.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
All time for Isaac Lohankron. What's up?
Speaker 2 (33:21):
I low a.
Speaker 8 (33:22):
Lot of money, That's what's up going around in Major
League Baseball Fellas multiple outlets supporting Arizona Diamondbacks all star
second Basement could tell Martz agreed to a new six year,
one hundred and sixteen million dollar extension. Padres all star
outfielder Jackson Merrill's agreed to a nine year extension worth
a reported one hundred and thirty five million dollars. Red
Sox infielder and outfielder Christian Campbell has agreed to an
(33:45):
eight year extension worth a reported sixty million dollars. On
the scoreboard right now, Pete Alonso of the Mets got
them to a one nothing lead at Miami today with
an RBI double in the top of the first, but
Miami has sin scored three runs, intervating We've still got
that lead. Three run Marlin, three to one Marlins over
the Mets. Now in the bottom half of the seventh inning,
(34:05):
the San Francisco Giants a six to three lead at
Houston going to the bottom half of the ninth inning,
and the Minnesota Twins leading the Chicago White Sox five
to nothing in the top of the fifth inning. Earlier,
Sea Suzuki had two home runs as the Cubs trounced
the A's ten to two. The A's remain winless in Sacramento.
Today's attendance nine thousand, three hundred and forty two Saint
(34:30):
Louis Cardinals catcher Von Herrera three home runs and six
RBI in a twelve five win over the Angels. Bryce
Terereng's RBI squeeze in the bottom of the eleventh gave
the Milwaukee Brewers a three to two win over the
Kansas City Royals. Finally, in soccer, former noted Manchester United
head coach Jose Mourinho, who is now coaching a team
(34:50):
in Turkey, is presently trending. It seems that after a
game this evening, Marinho confronted the opposing team's head coach
and pulled the man down by his nose. Took the
guy right.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Down to the ground. That's an old Miyagi move.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
Here was the.
Speaker 8 (35:10):
Befuddled reaction of the Turkish studio commentators watching footage of
the incident.

(39:44):
you wanted to talk about the Raiders and the possibilities
of Ashton Genty. I want to put that conversation off
till tomorrow because the draft is in three weeks. In
the meantime, you check out Ashton Genty and see how
how stacked this dude is five foot nine full of muscle,
as Danny and others have described the possible speed of
a McCaffrey with the muscles of a DK metcalf. So
(40:07):
we'll talk draft and some prospects tomorrow. And again the
rumor is Raiders Ray.
Speaker 6 (40:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:14):
Well, the story was about the general manager's son and
what he said.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
Yeah, well, we'll get to that tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (40:18):
I don't want to rush that, but in honor of
the late great Val Kilmer could just go around the room.
And when I say Val Kilmer, I thought it was
interesting that every obituary led with something different, Like the
New York Times Kilmer coma Batman. You know, the New
York Post about have said top Gun. Someone else said,
you know, for playing Jim Morrison. When I say Val Kilmer,
(40:42):
what do you think of man, I think Iceman, top Gun.
That's like to me, his most famous role was in
Tombstone personally, but I think of The Doors because it
was always crazy uncanny for me to see not only
the performance, but just how much he looked like Jim
Morrison and became Jim Morrison. Like he looked more like
Jim Morrison than Jim Morrison to me. Like when I
(41:03):
think of that Doors poster and album cover, I think
of Val Kilmer's face. But I hate to say this,
I've never seen that movie.
Speaker 2 (41:08):
Yeah, he did a great job to me.
Speaker 1 (41:10):
To me, I think Iceman, and I think how even
when he was sick at the end, he was in
the new Top Gun Maverick movie and he had a
pretty cool moment there with Tom Cruise. So I think Iceman,
and I also think Batman.
Speaker 2 (41:24):
I think of him as an action star.
Speaker 4 (41:26):
Actually, late eighties a movie we had on a VHS
tape that we wore out Willow Oh No, yeah, that's right.
Speaker 2 (41:33):
Loron anything Come to my Field.
Speaker 8 (41:35):

Speaker 1 (41:37):

thrown down. You know people for these babble heads.
Speaker 4 (03:32):
Yeah, it's the first forty thousand, and these are so exclusive.
One of the reasons why a lot of people save
one from their family and then they'll sell. They'll resell
the other for triple the price, so so what it
should cost.
Speaker 2 (03:46):
We'll keep you posted on that.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
But speaking of baseball and ruined moments, all because Westbrook,
he ruined the great game with a weak ass foul.
He ruined Jokic's triple double, He ruined Jokich's sixty one
point night because the Nuggets ended up losing. Other ruined
moments in the world of sports and life. Now rich
(04:08):
you meant that you mentioned Andy Chavis's catch. It's forgotten
because the Mets lost that series, so a ruined moment.
If they would have won, that would have went down,
like you said, as one of the greatest catches of
all time. I have a story that happened in two
thousand and one in the World of Sports two thousand
and one, And I'll tell you that right after the
phone call. You know what, before we get to the
phone calls about ruined moments? Do we have a winner for?
(04:31):
Who knew the arugula reference?
Speaker 2 (04:33):
They had the first one to get in on that.
Mike in Ohio.
Speaker 1 (04:35):
Yo, Mikey, what's up man? What movie? The following quote quote?
Are we missing anything?
Speaker 5 (04:40):
Sir?
Speaker 1 (04:41):
A arugula? What's a rugla? A vegetable? What's the movie?
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Mike?
Speaker 6 (04:45):
My cousin Benny?
Speaker 1 (04:47):
No, good guess, but my cousin Benny not the answer.
Good guess though.
Speaker 2 (04:52):
Go to the next line here. Who's calling? Yo? It's
Fox Sports Radio. Who's this? Where are you calling from? Jason?
Speaker 7 (05:02):
I'm calling from Springfield, Missouri.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
Got to answer to Rich's question?
Speaker 1 (05:06):
What movie?
Speaker 7 (05:07):
The movie is one of my all time favorites. It
is My Blue, My Blue Martin.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Steve Martin is in the Witness Protection Program. He's he's
like Henry Hill basically, yeah, I have seen that, and he's,
you know the guy, his parole officer. I guess is
Rick Morani's great eighties movie. And he goes to a
supermarket in the middle of nowhere. Think about it. He's
like a New York East Coast Italian guy.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
He's a mobster.
Speaker 1 (05:32):
Yeah, and he goes to the supermarket and he's looking
for a rugela.
Speaker 4 (05:36):
Congratulations, brother, hang on the line. We'll send a swiggy
out to you.
Speaker 7 (05:39):
Yeah, you missed my favorite line from that movie. When
they ask him why he robbed the truck. Thirty nine books,
he says, in case I want to read it more
than once.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
The best life, Sarah, you have thirty nine cove whatever?
What if I want to read it more than once?
Speaker 2 (05:56):
All right?
Speaker 1 (05:56):
Ruined moments?
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Can you know?
Speaker 1 (05:58):
Want to go to Matt and not Alaska. I want
to tell my story. Tell your story. The Matt could
stand by, So Mattie, Matt and everybody else. Eight seven,
seven ninety nine on Fox, We're getting to your phone
calls other ones that come to mind, sports or personally.
In two thousand and one, you remember the Yankees' Nightmare.
(06:21):
I think the world for the first time was pulling
for the Yankees to win the World Series. It was
a rough year, nine to eleven. Just happened, Yankees got
a chance to win it all. Alfonso Soriano hit a
go ahead home run off of Kurt Shilling in Game
seven against the Diamondbacks, and the Yankees brought it up
(06:41):
last night.
Speaker 2 (06:42):
Paul o'ial was talking about it last night.
Speaker 1 (06:43):
Yankees were playing the Diamondbacks as we speak, and even
he said, like that home run, had they won the
World Series, would have gone down as one of the
most historical go ahead home runs in World Series history.
Alfonso Soriano would have forever been a Yankee legend. But
he went on, Meanwhile, people forget he was the Yankees.
(07:03):
People forget not only that he was a Yankee, like
they forget this moment because they want to forget the
fact that the Yankees lost.
Speaker 2 (07:13):
It was a nothing burger.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
What could have been the most heroic moment ever is
almost forgotten completely. Not to rub it in being that
you're a Yankees fan. Take me back twenty four years
a we mid game, late innings, when did Soriano hit
the bomb?
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Again?
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Was trying to forget I got the facts here though.
Crucial Game seven, Soriano hit an O two pitch from Shilling,
given the Yankees the lead and eventually they lost the game.
It was an eighth inning, okay, and it was I
think they went three to two or something like that,
ahead the Yankees two to one, went ahead two to one.
(07:50):
Your facts about your own team. That's what I hit
about Yankees fans. They win so much, they're like, I
don't know the details, it was just another year. Well
I'm proving the point too. These are moments that you
forget because they were unimportant to you as a fan.
It's a ruined moment. What could have been. It should
have been a historical moment for Yankees fans ended up
being ruined by Gonzo's weak ass blooper. That was the
(08:13):
best weak ass hit and for Dad, get it. There's
two sides every story. For the Diamondbacks, man, you got
the best of Mo Rivera with a bloop single. Whoo
would he do when they win? But that moment, which
was I remember the moment obviously like no way, Sorriana
and everyone's cheering going wild. They lost forgotten. That's like
(08:34):
one of the most forgotten moments, so forgotten. Fans even
forget and for real, that's like the train. You're asking
me the score in the moment and everything else. I
don't forget the moment, but I don't try to relive
that day. I don't try to relive that game seven.
I just know in my head, in my heart that
Soriano was this close to becoming a here legend, a hero,
(08:55):
a hero John and Idaho falls. What's up?
Speaker 2 (08:57):
John?
Speaker 7 (08:59):
Yeah, the tough pool game with child Woodson in a
fumble hit on Tom Brady. That was a great moment,
and they took it back with the tough rule.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Raiders would have went to the super Bowl or advanced, right.
Speaker 2 (09:10):
And yeah, well they had a super Bowl caliber team.
Speaker 1 (09:13):
They would have advanced in the next round. And by
advancing to the next round, that Raiders team had a
trajectory of winning that. You know, keep in mind they
were like a year removed from being in the super Bowl,
so that that Raiders team got the short end of
that Woodson would have been you know, that would have
been a memorable Raiders moment. Ends up the creation of
a weak tuck roll. Matt in Alaska?
Speaker 2 (09:32):
What's up?
Speaker 7 (09:32):
What not?
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Matt? What's going on?
Speaker 7 (09:34):
Boys?
Speaker 2 (09:34):
Hey?
Speaker 7 (09:35):
I heard on the Dan Byer Show that some Los
Angeles Dodgers fans got to the game eight hours early
only to find out that the Dodgers are actually giving
bubbleheads to everyone that comes tonight. Talk about being angry. Anyways,
my moment is, uh.
Speaker 1 (09:49):
Oh my god, that's the worst.
Speaker 2 (09:52):
Yeah, because I read forty thousand this morning, I.
Speaker 7 (09:54):
Did do I did to the Dan Byers show, said
that everybody's getting one, not Dan Byra, Gottlieb, Jim Joyce,
first base umpire dude.
Speaker 1 (10:05):
Number one answer.
Speaker 2 (10:06):
Yeah, a caller dude.
Speaker 7 (10:13):
Now not in the record books because the.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
One answer on the board, without a doubt. Jim Joyce,
who again he he couldn't have been more sympathetic to
the mistake. He admitted his error in that moment. I
always argue, but he went with his gut and what
he thought in the moment was right. I would argue,
could you know that perhaps that made it even a
bigger moment in sports history? So maybe there's like a
layer where it's like I couldn't name all the perfect
(10:37):
games in MLB history, but I can name the one
that was robbed that was a heartbreaker.
Speaker 4 (10:42):
Yeah, well, you're putting it in the Pete Rose category
where maybe it was better that he didn't get in
because he got more attention.
Speaker 1 (10:48):
Maybe so, And they both handled it so well, like
the way, yeah, the way they handled that was was
almost like shocking.
Speaker 4 (10:59):
Baseball should have fixed stat thought, why can't they?
Speaker 2 (11:02):
Yeah, even if it was before that fixed it.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
Honestly, Daddy, sometimes you forget it's a game and there's
no like statute limitations. It's not we're not in court.
This is not the you know, charges against someone. Hey,
we realize it was wrong. This replay now. I know
you can say that's a slippery slope of like, well,
then let's replay this and that. But why can't we
just all agree it was the perfect game? Jim Joyce
(11:28):
ruin the perfect game. Man, that was tough. But they
go down and a lifetime like moment, you know, and
were forever You and I were watching that Rich together,
We were Cavino. They were there forever linked, much like
you know for years Mookie Wilson and Bill Bucken would
do autograph signings together. Jim Joyce and Galaraga are forever
(11:49):
almost like uh brothers in a way, right, like connected Yeah,
connected through history for sure.
Speaker 2 (11:56):
Rich.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
I know you have like personal other personal examples, but again,
it happens in sports, it happens in life. Someone has
a little too much to drink at the family reunion.
I'm in a good mood, So I'm in a good mood.
So I don't want to talk about how Spot gave
the worst best man speech at my wedding, like.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
He made your wife.
Speaker 1 (12:13):
It was like a failed roast instead of the best
man speech. But we want to talk about that. Oh yeah,
we don't have to talk about it. Let's get back
to the phone. Let's go to Todd in Missouri.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Hey, Todd, Hey, Todd, how much we Brick messed that up?
Speaker 8 (12:27):
Man?
Speaker 5 (12:27):
He took the shot on the possession before miss the
lay up, or they could have just ran the fox.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
So wait, say it again, but.
Speaker 5 (12:36):
Just how much west Brook? He missed that lay up
on the possession right before he could have just ran
the clock and or at least not missed the lay up.
So he just really messed that up.
Speaker 1 (12:45):
Yeah, and the coach defended him almost, you know, doubled
down on both of his mental errors. So he just
had a rough night. Man, I don't know what was
going on there. Drew and Sincy, what's up? We'll take
like three more?
Speaker 2 (12:56):
What's up?
Speaker 1 (12:57):
Drew?
Speaker 7 (12:58):
Hey?
Speaker 1 (12:58):
Guys?
Speaker 2 (12:59):
Hey?
Speaker 6 (13:00):
Super Bowl fifty one Patriots and Falcons. Obviously most known
for the Falcons blowing the game. But deep in the
fourth quarter, Julio Jones had one of the most incredible catches.
I don't know if you all remember.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
I do remember this.
Speaker 6 (13:13):
Seven yards down the sideline, perfect, most of the guy
got both seat and bounds. And what did the Falcons do?
Sack penalty, punt and the rest is history.
Speaker 1 (13:25):
Yeah, when you I remember that moment only because that's
that's the part you remember where all the Falcons needed
to do was put any points on the board just
to distance themselves a little more, and the fact that
they weren't field goal range and somehow sack penalty just
pushed themselves back. I was like, oh my god, the
Patriots are going to do this. That was terrible. Uh,
let's go to Neil in Tennessee, Neil Covin.
Speaker 6 (13:47):
And Rich you guys. I don't know if it would
have made a difference.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
But the Weber time out in the championship game.
Speaker 1 (13:54):
Say it again, the Weber Chris, Yeah, that's always going
to be we talked about for sure. I actually, you know,
our last call that reminded me of something else when
I was playing high school football.
Speaker 2 (14:07):
There was.
Speaker 1 (14:09):
I forget what the play was, but it was a
winning touchdown on our end. It was a JV game
and then there was a clipping call on me that
took it back. We ended up losing that game, so
I was like, oh, it was like this heroic touchdown
at my buddy Tom scored and everyone's mad at you. Dude,
when you get called for something like that, everyone's mad
(14:31):
at you for that, you feel like the worst because
you ruin the party. You're like the like the tight
end on the Ravens. Yeah, I was like, what Mark Andrews.
You know, there are sometimes when something gets blown there
is a silver lining because you never know. Is that
Tom Brady?
Speaker 9 (14:48):
You know?
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Tom Brady tells that story on his documentary, the Story
of the Chinese Farm, Or how in the moment you
might think something's bad, but it might be good, and
something good might actually be bad. A great what do
you call a great fable? There was the New York Yankee.
I can't quite remember which Yankee, you'll fill in the blanks.
(15:11):
He would have been on a plane that crashed in
New York had the Yankees won the World Series, and
he forever thanks Marianna Rivera for blowing that game. There
was a Yankee let me explain Game seven, the Yankees lose,
he was going to his plane. Let's just say his
travel arrangement changed because it was wait around for the
(15:32):
parade or go home. Wasn't that the Seth MacFarland story too.
Seth MacFarland just overslept for nine to eleven, But Yankee
avoids plane crashed two thousand and one, not nine to eleven.
Remember a month later a plane crashed in the rockaways
off of the right off of JFK. There was a
New York Yankee that was going to be on that plane,
(15:54):
but said, I don't need to be on that plane anymore.
No parade, I'm.
Speaker 2 (15:56):
Going That's the story of Enrique Wilson.
Speaker 1 (16:00):
Credit Wilson.
Speaker 2 (16:01):
Yeah, he was a great player.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
He's just a utility guy and he played big, played
well for for the Yanks. He credits Mariano's blown save
for saving his life. He was booked on a plane, Yeah,
flight five eighty seven. He was booked on a plane
that crashed every Yeah flight five eighty seven.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (16:17):
And because the Yankees weren't gonna have a celebrating prey like,
he booked the plane ticket assuming the Yankees we're gonna
win and have a parade. When the Yankees lost Game seven,
He's like, I'm going back to his home country so ruined.
Speaker 2 (16:30):
Yeah, I believe he's Dominica.
Speaker 1 (16:31):
Dominican ruined moments in sports. We saw one last night.
You know, Russell Westbrook feels bad enough, but the fact
that he also ruined that night for Joker makes it worse.
And that's really what it comes down to. So we
gave you plenty of examples, and we'll take one last
(16:51):
phone call out. He could chime in at Covino and
writch and just for the record, I've looked at my
phone eight times during that conversation realizing I don't have
a phone.
Speaker 2 (16:58):
Yep, Rich broke phone today.
Speaker 1 (17:00):
I was like, you know that Yankee, hold on me,
oh phone? All right, Uh, let's say hi to Jason
and Missouri and then Spot's got midweek major coming up.
What's up, Jason, Thanks for hanging with Covi on Rich, Hey.
Speaker 7 (17:11):
For me, and don't ask me why I'm a Seahawks
fan in the middle of Missouri. But this stupid pass
play at the end of the Super Bowl when you've
got how would dude.
Speaker 1 (17:23):
That would make me sick? Listen, my team has lost
a lot of dumb games, but that, to me, Seahawks
fans honestly must think about that way more than we think.
That really was one of the most sickening ways to
lose a game.
Speaker 2 (17:34):
It really was.
Speaker 1 (17:36):
You have Marshawn Lynch. I don't need to repeat it.
It just if you're a Seahawks fan, how do you
not annoyingly think of that? That's just a name that's got.
Speaker 2 (17:45):
To be number one.
Speaker 1 (17:45):
As far as like what's going you probably still wake
up some days wondering if you could if that really happened.
Speaker 4 (17:51):
Pete Carroll better make wiser decisions with Ashton Genty, I.
Speaker 2 (17:54):
Know, right, So I think that's where they're going.
Speaker 1 (17:56):
We got to talk about him too, if we have time.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
This is my so.
Speaker 1 (18:01):
By the way, he's smaller than I thought I was
looking up. He's only five nine, Danny dude nine.
Speaker 4 (18:06):
He's not big in stature, He's not a tall guy,
but he's built like a rot brisk a brick. They
in fact, they showed him at his pro day.
Speaker 2 (18:14):
He's a brick. You should have.
Speaker 4 (18:17):
Sawt like people were blown away because you know it's
they're just basically in their speedos running around and he
looks like he's built out of bricks.
Speaker 2 (18:27):
Damn.

Covino's gonna get the first take. And now, ladies and gentlemen,
the most famous person besides Judy Bloom from Scotch Plains
New Jersey, Spotty Boy, Hey guys, thanks fun.
Speaker 9 (22:12):
All right, all right, So one Atlanta Hawks fan is
gonna have to stay off his feet for a while
after Tuesday night's game. During an intermission in the Hawks
versus Trailblazers game at State Farm Arena, two fans were
invited on the court to participate in a basketball version of.
Speaker 2 (22:26):
Tic tac toe.
Speaker 9 (22:27):
So, while one of the opponents was about to hit
a few layups before his competitor, his knee gave out
while he was approaching the basket. He was running up
and just like immediately went to the ground and slid down.
Fan was laying down the court clutching his knee in
pain with an apparent acl injury.
Speaker 2 (22:43):
Ah my neck.
Speaker 1 (22:44):
Now, I was gonnay quest before Carino goes Midweek Major.
I know you get first take on this, but just
for people that don't understand, if you get a layup,
then you get to run and put an extra o down.
So it's like a race of layups because if you
get a shot that you get to play.
Speaker 2 (22:59):
Tiktak took.
Speaker 9 (23:00):
Yeah, So the game, so there's urgency, is there's urgent
rid right, So that he was running up, slip fell,
Emergency personnel came out, had to like surrounded him on
the court.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
The game had to be paused, like they couldn't even
continue with the game.
Speaker 9 (23:13):
And something that was just supposed to be in the intermission.
Even the nearby players were just staring at this whole
thing in disbelief. The man is actually a season ticket holder.
The Hawks that said they reached out to him said
that he's in good spirits and expects the full recovery.
Speaker 1 (23:27):
No word on who's cover of the medical bills. So
Midweek or major, major, because it brings up so many
questions like who should cover the medical bills, and that's
the Hawks in our opinion, in my opinion, but there's
so many major moments here. He's a season ticket holder.
How embarrassing like he falls and it looks like he slips, which,
(23:47):
in my opinion, again gives more reason for the Hawks
to cover these bills because I think they could be
facing potential lawsuit because he could be like, you know,
I got hurt in this game. Look on the video
I slipped. And I think it also leads to another
conversation of is it even worth it having the fans
out there on the court, Like have the unicycle person
with the balls on their head, it's just as good,
(24:08):
Like I think this may lead to other conversations where
it's not even worth it. I think it's major. Yeah,
I think the Atlanta Hawks. I think the Atlanta Hawks
need to cover one of this. It's all optics, right,
You're a billion dollar franchise. You have personnel medical teams
on staff for the players. This is a give this
(24:31):
guy free medical coverage. I have your people take care
of his acl on. But I think it is the
last we see if something specifically like this, But I
think you know, a basketball team is a great example
of someone that does have on standby on retainer. I
guess you would say a whole crew of medical personnel
cover this guy's bills. And with the little slippy dippy
as I wrote that slippy dippy, the fact that body
(24:54):
said his knee gave out, but it looks like he slips. Yeah,
it looks like there might have been some sweat or condensation.
So with that being said, Hawks cover it, do the
right thing, And I agree that there is something a
little embarrassing. It reminds me a couple of weeks ago,
almost as embarrassing. I was at a Knicks game a
few weeks ago with my buddy Tracy, and he threw
up on the court.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
You're so embarrassed. True story.
Speaker 4 (25:17):
By the way, Rich, the latest valuation for the Hawks
sea three point eight billion.
Speaker 1 (25:23):
You're a three point eight billion dollar company. Essentially, Hey
for the guys, can they handle it and make it
right and avoid a pr nightmare?
Speaker 3 (25:31):
Kind of a bad reflection on humanity. Though humans can
no longer step floot on a court without hurting themselves,
I know.
Speaker 9 (25:36):
They're very slippery the game is over all, right, we
soked yesterday how Brown's owner Jimmy Haslam commented on DeShawn
Watson being a swing and amiss for the team when
they acquired him as with a five year, two hundred
and thirty million dollar contract.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
Well.
Speaker 9 (25:50):
Watson appears to have fired back on social media after
the comments went public, with a cryptic post on his
Instagram filled with photos of him training at the team's
gym with the cap maybe if I weren't built for this,
I'd let it phaze me. Watson is still recovering from
his torn actch lists his achilles and no whord on
whether he'll start next season, but Cleveland does have the
second overall picked in the upcoming draft, so we'll see
(26:13):
how that plays out midweek or major everything, major.
Speaker 1 (26:17):
Major, on every level. You got an owner talking about
a player that's still on the team. Awkward burgers, right,
You see a sense of honesty that is refreshing because
we're not even It's refreshing and awkward, like wow, he's
talking that kind of smack about a current player, a
player that deserves to be smacked talked about. In my opinion,
so much expectation placed on him to be one of
(26:40):
the worst quarterbacks in the league and embarrassment talking about embarrassing,
that's an embarrassment in itself, and then he has the
nerve to fire back. Dude, you stink everything about this
is major. I think it's major because the guy is
still on the team. But I wonder if there is
a way for Deshaun Watching to massage the situation. Oh wow,
(27:06):
just sort of again. That's why I'm saying, I don't know, dude,
when you already have a bad reputation, like I would
just deal with it. I wouldn't be talking back at
the owner and firing back or anything like that. He's
in this position, collect your money because of a reputation
that he sort of set for himself. Collect your money,
and you know, be thankful that you sort of bamboos
(27:27):
with everyone. And dude, do we love comeback stories? Of course? Hey,
you know how you shut everybody up? Deliver all right?
Speaker 9 (27:36):
As you knows, have left Oakland as they prepare to
move to their future home in Las Vegas, but they
have their few season pit stop in Sacramento at Sutter
Health Park. Venue shares as a minor league venue that
shares it with the river Cats capacity of fourteen thousand. Well,
one feature they seem to be missing is a bathroom
for the visiting team. You may have there was a
(27:58):
clip floating around where Cubs outfield their uh say, a
Suzuki was forced to run across the outfield.
Speaker 2 (28:03):
They called it the Walk of shame.
Speaker 9 (28:04):
In the Walk of shame in between innings to make
a trip to the bathroom because the visiting dugout is
not connected to the clubhouse. In addition, apparently the A's
are gonna have to use a metal shed to have
their press conferences. So so far things are going great
and Sacramento they lost eighteen to three in their home
opener midweek or major?
Speaker 1 (28:21):
I think it's major. These are Major League ball players, right.
You don't have these things figured out before you have
the Cubs come and visit.
Speaker 2 (28:29):
It's embarrassing.
Speaker 4 (28:30):
They did work for a couple of months straight on
upgrading the stadium to at least, you know, have it
somewhere near.
Speaker 2 (28:38):
You would think a bathroom would be important.
Speaker 1 (28:40):
But I'm just honestly like, especially for these high profile players,
I mean it would, it would.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
I know the games are early to two hours and
something twenty minutes.
Speaker 1 (28:48):
It would look it would look trashy, but like put a.
Speaker 3 (28:50):
Portage out of the dughouse like something, grab a metal
bucket from that shed and they can go in that.
Speaker 2 (28:55):
How about that? Yeah, that's fine.
Speaker 1 (28:58):
Cubs are dominate and looking really strong out there, though.
Speaker 2 (29:03):
Nice job spot, so we got first, but it had
to go. It's all good.
Speaker 1 (29:10):
We're gonna actually be out there on the thirteenth. Rich
and I are going just to watch a game. I
hope there's a bathroom we could use, man, I hope
there's a place for a Francisco Lindordo drop a deuce.
Speaker 2 (29:22):
He's got to trot to cross the outfit.
Speaker 4 (29:24):
Man.
Speaker 2 (29:24):
We know what he's doing.
Speaker 9 (29:25):
Bad, all right, stick him with baseball. I'm not everyone
a fan of the torpedo bats that are all the
rage with the Yankees and is probably going to be
spreading to other teams.
Speaker 2 (29:33):
Well.
Speaker 9 (29:33):
Philly's reliever Matt Strom posts on his x account sharing
his thoughts which just seemed to be catching win and
going viral. He said, let them use whatever they want,
but let's allow pitchers to use whatever hitters have in
the on deck circle and not check us like we're
criminals every time we walk on or off the field.
He said, I'm just a picture, but I'm assuming better
grip helps you swing harder. So he's looking for some
(29:55):
fair balance here between pitchers and hitters.
Speaker 2 (30:00):
He said.
Speaker 9 (30:00):
The Umps conduct numerous hand checks on pitchers throughout the
game for sticky substances. He's not saying, he specifically said,
not looking to bring back some sticky stuff, but we
will still want to have that.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Better grip, just like the batter's man, Matty Major.
Speaker 1 (30:13):
That's called cheating, and everything that they did with the
bat is legal on every level. Stop comparing it with
steroid usage and anything like that. Pine tar is also
a legal substances the beginning of time with baseball, So
to all of a sudden expect pitchers to be allowed
to spider tack or pine tar anything a Farnes ubs
(30:34):
is on a ball, just to balance out the torpedo bat.
It's just silly talk. Yeah, I agreed. I think it's
I think it's weak.
Speaker 2 (30:42):
I think you know what.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
I think it's a week too because there's still this
misconception by some bozos that the Yankees or anyone for
that matter, is doing anything wrong. You know who, I
feel bad for the most not the Yankees, not the
creators of the torpedo. Bet I feel bad for all
the parents of these like over zealous travel based fall teams.
Every little kid's probably like, I need a torpedo, bet,
I need a torpedo. You know, there's a speculation, you
(31:06):
know how they gave credit to that the physicist that
designed it. Let me, Easton had a version of a
torpedo bat years ago. Yeah, the more you're seeing things,
it was like under our nose the whole time.
Speaker 9 (31:20):
All right, let's see, I mean it's in full swing,
so we'll go to March Madness. It can be quite
a time for college hoops fans, but not so great
for their relationships. I know, pretty obvious there, but in
a recent survey of a thousand couples, apparently twenty eight
percent of fans have said that fights have been started
because of the tournament and as far to go, as
far as one sportsbook betty bet Us is offering the
(31:42):
College Basketball Championship twenty twenty five. Prenuptial agreement might be
a bit late for that, but the Hoops and Harmony
contract has couples decide how many games are allowed to watch.
Each party has to agree to coordinate viewing schedules, prioritize
shared activities and responsibilities, and apparently, among the gen Z range,
which is eighteen to twenty four, they one in four
(32:02):
have said they've thought about ending their relationship because of
the tournament. Twenty six percent of couples say that watching
habits sports watching habits are a.
Speaker 2 (32:11):
Relationship deal breaker.
Speaker 9 (32:13):
And people and how they feel neglected during games, and
twenty four percent of men are unwilling to budge on
their viewing habits.
Speaker 2 (32:21):
So's not in a great time for dating.
Speaker 1 (32:23):
Midweker major Well, in the grand scheme of relationships, it's major,
But I think the story's kind of mid because I
think young people, you said, from the ages of eighteen
to twenty four, they're willing to break up over anything.
The relationships don't matter. I guess yeah, they're so fickle.
If someone blows their nose the wrong way, they have
(32:43):
to move on because they can't get past it. So
I'm not surprised by this now. This is week saws
first of all. Yeah, but it is major that relationships
can't withstand anything. If you're fighting over every march, mad
this game and guess what, get a life honestly, get
a life. I do think you have to date someone
a full calendar year before you marry them, because I
(33:06):
think you do need to see their habits.
Speaker 3 (33:07):
But how about this, when you're like vetting someone to date, Hey,
do you like March Madnis?
Speaker 2 (33:11):
Do you like sports? If they say yes, then that's
a good starting point.
Speaker 1 (33:14):
Yeah, no doubt so.
Speaker 3 (33:15):
Like they should understand that you want to watch those games,
and you should invite.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
All time for Isaac Lohankron. What's up?
Speaker 2 (33:21):
I low a.
Speaker 8 (33:22):
Lot of money, That's what's up going around in Major
League Baseball Fellas multiple outlets supporting Arizona Diamondbacks all star
second Basement could tell Martz agreed to a new six year,
one hundred and sixteen million dollar extension. Padres all star
outfielder Jackson Merrill's agreed to a nine year extension worth
a reported one hundred and thirty five million dollars. Red
Sox infielder and outfielder Christian Campbell has agreed to an
(33:45):
eight year extension worth a reported sixty million dollars. On
the scoreboard right now, Pete Alonso of the Mets got
them to a one nothing lead at Miami today with
an RBI double in the top of the first, but
Miami has sin scored three runs, intervating We've still got
that lead. Three run Marlin, three to one Marlins over
the Mets. Now in the bottom half of the seventh inning,
(34:05):
the San Francisco Giants a six to three lead at
Houston going to the bottom half of the ninth inning,
and the Minnesota Twins leading the Chicago White Sox five
to nothing in the top of the fifth inning. Earlier,
Sea Suzuki had two home runs as the Cubs trounced
the A's ten to two. The A's remain winless in Sacramento.
Today's attendance nine thousand, three hundred and forty two Saint
(34:30):
Louis Cardinals catcher Von Herrera three home runs and six
RBI in a twelve five win over the Angels. Bryce
Terereng's RBI squeeze in the bottom of the eleventh gave
the Milwaukee Brewers a three to two win over the
Kansas City Royals. Finally, in soccer, former noted Manchester United
head coach Jose Mourinho, who is now coaching a team
(34:50):
in Turkey, is presently trending. It seems that after a
game this evening, Marinho confronted the opposing team's head coach
and pulled the man down by his nose. Took the
guy right.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Down to the ground. That's an old Miyagi move.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
Here was the.
Speaker 8 (35:10):
Befuddled reaction of the Turkish studio commentators watching footage of
the incident.
Speaker 1 (35:16):

(39:44):
you wanted to talk about the Raiders and the possibilities
of Ashton Genty. I want to put that conversation off
till tomorrow because the draft is in three weeks. In
the meantime, you check out Ashton Genty and see how
how stacked this dude is five foot nine full of muscle,
as Danny and others have described the possible speed of
a McCaffrey with the muscles of a DK metcalf. So
(40:07):
we'll talk draft and some prospects tomorrow. And again the
rumor is Raiders Ray.
Speaker 6 (40:13):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (40:14):
Well, the story was about the general manager's son and
what he said.
Speaker 2 (40:17):
Yeah, well, we'll get to that tomorrow.
Speaker 1 (40:18):
I don't want to rush that, but in honor of
the late great Val Kilmer could just go around the room.
And when I say Val Kilmer, I thought it was
interesting that every obituary led with something different, Like the
New York Times Kilmer coma Batman. You know, the New
York Post about have said top Gun. Someone else said,
you know, for playing Jim Morrison. When I say Val Kilmer,
(40:42):
what do you think of man, I think Iceman, top Gun.
That's like to me, his most famous role was in
Tombstone personally, but I think of The Doors because it
was always crazy uncanny for me to see not only
the performance, but just how much he looked like Jim
Morrison and became Jim Morrison. Like he looked more like
Jim Morrison than Jim Morrison to me. Like when I
(41:03):
think of that Doors poster and album cover, I think
of Val Kilmer's face. But I hate to say this,
I've never seen that movie.
Speaker 2 (41:08):
Yeah, he did a great job to me.
Speaker 1 (41:10):
To me, I think Iceman, and I think how even
when he was sick at the end, he was in
the new Top Gun Maverick movie and he had a
pretty cool moment there with Tom Cruise. So I think Iceman,
and I also think Batman.
Speaker 2 (41:24):
I think of him as an action star.
Speaker 4 (41:26):
Actually, late eighties a movie we had on a VHS
tape that we wore out Willow Oh No, yeah, that's right.
Speaker 2 (41:33):
Loron anything Come to my Field.
Speaker 8 (41:35):
Heat and the Saints.
Speaker 1 (41:37):
I love it. Shoe, great movie, so many great movies.
Speaker 2 (41:41):
I want to go way.
Speaker 9 (41:42):
Back, the film Real Genius, good one where he was
in college.
Speaker 2 (41:45):
He was like a smart guy. The guy from White
Lotus is in that movie.
Speaker 3 (41:49):
Sorry, yeah, what you got saying with Michael Douglas, The
Ghost and the Darkness, excellent movie.
Speaker 1 (41:54):
See that mans so many and if you want to
chime in with yours, hit us up at Covine ownerch
We actually posted a picture.
Speaker 2 (41:59):
