Speaker 2 (01:52):
Thank you guys for getting involved with us over there.
I have not a heard of Bill Belichick update a minute.
I heard Sam play the Friday Today's Friday. But what
was the last time you heard from Bill Belichick and
his girlfriend.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Pablo Torre's probably talking about it as we speak. Pab
is naked in his room thinking about it. That guy's
obsessed all the guy that's leaking all the stories. I mean,
God bless him.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Bill Melijack.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Yeah, I say that respectfully, but yeah, he's the guy
all about it. So I don't know, let me DM
and we'll find out. Maybe we'll get an update.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Well, we got a lot to get to today.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
We're going to talk about the Harper's, the basketball family,
newly drafted Dylan and his dad Ron.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
There's a col Rawley story.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
We're going to talk about Sophie Cunningham and Caitlin Clark.
But I gotta ask you real quick out the gate.
As we get our Friday show started. We talk about
sports every day. We talked to the Fox Sports Radio Nation,
people from the East coast, West coast, different countries, different states.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Don't forget the middle of the country.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
Middle America, bro, Middle Earth.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
If you're such a sports fan, do you need to
at least play some sport, be somewhat active. Derek Jeter
loves sports more than you said. He hasn't swung a
bat in ten years.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
A good example. How he built his whole life in sports.
That's a terrible example. How is that a terrible example?
Because that's somebody's talking about who loves sports more than
a guy that built his whole life.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Sorry, I don't get it because I live in a
world of competing in things that matter. You know, I'm
not wasting my time doing recreational nonsense. I don't get
it my hobbies, dude. I mean, if your hobbies, my
hobbies is doing radio. I love that is your job,
but it's also my hobby.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
You know.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
I didn't get into this because it was a job.
I got into it because I love it. So that's
my hobby. I'm talking about like a hobby, though, Broye
love it. Playing goofy into real sports was something I
did when I was in my twenties for fun. But
I'm saying thoughts don't have that time or mental energy
for that sort of thing. I'm just saying, if you're
down to you're a sports fan and you watch every
day and you're analyzing the NBA, w NBA baseball, football, basketball.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
You're so involved.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
I'm just shocked that a lot of people don't actually
play sports. Golf, tennis, softball, volleyball, pickup basketball. A lot
of people do because that's their exercise, that's their joy.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
That's why.
Speaker 5 (04:19):
Yeah, you do it when you cannot in an organized
way where you have to make a commitment.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Yeah, this guy's like call me up on a Wednesday
night on his ride home from a softball game at
ten pm, Like, no thanks.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
If you love.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Sports so much, I'm shocked at more love more than
chilling on a Wednesday night.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
So chilling is what you prefer.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Yeah, because my mental energy is going to the next
day of work. You're spreading yourself thin. That's how I
feel about it.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Well, life's not about work.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
If you love what you do, which I do, I
don't know about you. Don't be one dimensional balance, Daniel, balance,
it's not you know where. I just came from the gym,
so that's my exercise, sure about thought? So yeah, I'm
pretty sure. Look at it wearing And I just saw
the boss as I was leaving the gym, and I
was nice and sweaty, and I give him a nice
sweaty hug. I think you know, Hey, man, I'm in
(05:08):
my late forties. I had my glory in my twenties thirties.
My fulfillment comes from achieving things as a parent, watching
my nephews play sports, excelling in my career. Hitting a
goofy softball home run doesn't have that same thrill or
importance to me as it did when I was a
younger guy, because that's when it mattered what happened to me.
(05:29):
The phrase work hard, play hard, play hard means Hey,
I'm going to Bahamas next month. I'll see you there.
I'm not trying to like play recreational song. I'm just saying,
we all love sports so much. I'm just shocked that.
But people do love sports so much. But a lot
of people do, so, I don't know where you're getting
this from. There's so many dudes that play pickleball or
(05:49):
beach volleyball or pick up basketball like ghost plenty.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
My cousin just started golf.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Yeah, I mean because that's fun for them and they
need that sort of release.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
My work is fun. I don't need.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
I'm not stressed out in that way where I need
to escape the way some people do.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Oh, so you play sports, I do? Yeah? What do
you play right now? I'm blaming volleyball, but in my
life I've played other sports.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
I'm also like fifteen years older than her, with the
kid and three other jobs, So you expect me to
be living her life.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
You're out of your mind. I'm just saying, the spot
does yoga. I was just at the gym. What are
you talking about? So stay active? Hell?
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Yeah, go take a walk, take a dog for a walk.
To speed your kids. How about you stay home with
howbout you take a kid to get.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Some ice cream or something? Does kid corral and count?
Speaker 6 (06:35):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Busy people are exhausted. People have real lives.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
I don't think my parents were worried about like playing
beach volleyball when they had five kids.
Speaker 7 (06:45):
Listen, if Rich did not burn off some of that
extra energy, you don't know what he'd be like.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Yeah, he's that needs a walk. Not everyone.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Yeah, some people like to relax a little bit. I
think you're undermining the importance of chilling and I don't know,
enjoying the home you paid for. You have a pool
in your house, enjoy that in that you have to
go you have to you have to go out. Yeah,
he's like Francis Buckston, but the files are in the computer.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
He has a pool in his house.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
You know.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Rich is saying, if you love sports so much, why
don't you play sports. I think there's a lot of
people that do, a lot of people that I just
want to throw it out there because I see everyone
on this network and other networks.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, been about.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Stan Meyer plays golf all the time, Monsey plays softball,
and every she's in a million different leagues. She's playing
Ultimate Frisbee tonight. Probably she plays cricket. Yeah, dany G
has twelve kids. Where does he have time to do that?
He's got a kickball game, win Iowa, Sam, I play
pocket pool. Yeah, there you go, spy as a yoga master, Like,
what do you expect?
Speaker 1 (07:42):
What do you want people to do?
Speaker 2 (07:43):
We are adults. You know time is limited. That's how
I feel about it. It's what do you choose to
do in your spare time? Sorry I brought it up.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
Well, I'm just trying to figure out where it came from.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
I'm just saying it's we we every day you know,
ainstorm topics ideas, we overanalyze and have so much fun
talking about sports. I would just imagine that you had
that same level of interest in playing sports. Well, yeay,
that talks about his twenty seven Litle League home runs
and how you looked like a young, spry, handsome Latino man.
(08:20):
But you think I have the same energy that I
had in my twenties and thirties. Ou on your mind
my birthdays? Next mons? Talk about how you down time?
I want to like relax. How you're the youngest guy
in this network. You're active, like your big micro runs
his place. Who prob what does he have like eight
hip replays with something like that. No, but that's why
I should I not just come back from the gym.
I'm sorry. It's not like I'm sitting home being lazy
(08:41):
all the time.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Mike did competitive power slapping before it became a thing.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
He did, and by the way, I just found out
today that he was his high school heavyweight arm wrestling champion.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
So Mike, he was the guy from over the top. Yeah,
the guy taking on Slide. He's the one that Slide
I beat in the second scene.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
I think there's an in between phase of life where
you can't really play pick up basketball the way you
used to, and you're not quite ready for the golf course,
even though I think that's probably my next step. So
I mean, no one's canceling out on that. But I
think my focus is excelling in my career and when
I'm sort of where I want to be. Yeah, I
have time to dip away and hit the course, you know,
(09:19):
pick up a pickleball paddle. But I don't find the
importance the way some people do, because my life is fun.
Some people need to get away and get out of
the house. You got two rugrats at home, so I
could see you want to get out. I got a
teenage daughter. I co parent life is not as stressful
as you think, even though I do have an X
I got to deal with too. But you know, my
(09:40):
job got it up fine. My job is fun. So
this is my outlet. That's how I feel about it.
And some people that are just busy, bro busy with life,
get off Covino's back. Come on, I don't know if
he's on my back or I don't ever tell anymore. Yeah,
I don't know either. I'm trying to figureut where it
came from. It just came from just a simple idea.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
You know what I actually thought of. We were at
our big event.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
We had hundreds of people at Atomic Golf in Vegas,
and I'm walking around.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
I'm like, some of these people have never swung.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
A golf club yet they're all sports fans and having
swung golf no since I was like twenty something years
I'm saying, is that for just such a for people
that are so passionate about sports. I'm saying in the
general public, I feel like so many people watch but
don't actually participate.
Speaker 5 (10:22):
Well, think about movies and shows, like we're passionate about
that stuff, and we've never except for Covi, you know,
we've never been on TV shows.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
I look at it this way, Danny, all of us,
because I'm using my mental energy to do stuff that
matters to me. I'm just and pertains to my career.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Rind fair. I'm just saying, like Hinn, a.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Softball bomb does nothing for my confidence and nothing for
my me personally. If it does for you, that's fun saying.
But I'm trying to answer that question, talk about how
sports was such a big part of our childhood, how
nothing was more nothing was more fun than playing little league,
g wiffootball, high school football, you know, basketball, to Paul,
you know, all these things. I just find the funny
(11:02):
how we all sort of like stopped, not all of us.
I'm saying, I love pizza, but I don't make it.
I just buy it and need it.
Speaker 5 (11:09):
Well, we're going to revisit this when we get to
the MLB home run derby. Yeah, it's a good story there.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
By the way, we're gonna be there this year, so
I'm very excited.
Speaker 5 (11:18):
Yeah, Yeah, we're gonna have the details on Monday afternoon show.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Yeah, let's just open it up. Then eight that's the city,
I mean, Atlanta, Here we come, eight seven, seven ninety
nine one Fox. I love boxing. I've never been in
a boxing gym in my life.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Well to work out, right.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
I'm just saying I'm done. If you love sports, and
I imagine you do. You're listening to Fox Sports Radio,
why don't you play sports? And the answer is probably,
I don't know, dude, because I'm fifty something and I'm.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Tired of something.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
I'm saying for the most of the majority of our audioce,
I don't know, because I'm living my life and I
got to wake up for work the next day.
Speaker 5 (11:52):
Even our younger listeners, like my sons that are both
in college right now, they don't do sports anymore because
they're out of that part of their life. They played
high school sports, they're not playing collegiate I.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
Don't want to.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
I feel like I've had my glory there and I'm
trying to recapture or capture glory or recapture that same
feeling doing things that matter to me.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Now those things don't matter to me now.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
I think we go I think we go through phases though,
because rich I was in that same Balboa league you're
in eight years ago when I was single and didn't
have a family. Now I have step kids in my
own little kid, so there's no time, like literally, I
couldn't carve out time to play in a league.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
And you think anyone loves sports more than Danny, Yeah,
I just you know what it's like, you know how.
I'll give you the example video games. There was a
time in college where I said, you know what, I
think I'm doing video games because I cared way more
about booty and getting ahead in like my career. I
was like, yo, I'm really loving radio and I'm really
loving all these random sarrity girls video games.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
It's been fun.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Goodbye.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
I never did that with sports like I did when
I hung out my cleats, like for real, like I
was heay, I'm done, I'm moving on. And I focused
everything on broadcasting and everything on radio.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
That's the truth.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
And like I give you the answer, and I feel
like it's never suffice and you don't like get it
because I'm not you, and I think that would be
for the majority of people.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
I had my.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Fulfillment playing sports, and now I get my fulfillment out
of succeeding as a parent, as a watching my kids,
succeed as a broadcaster, as a guy who's doing another
new television show that I talked about today right before
this show. You know, those are the things that threw
me now. Hitting a three point shot at the gym
(13:35):
at eight pm on a Thursday not my vibe anymore,
even though I'll still shoot around and I still go
to the gym every day.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
I think that's the least you could do. Take that, Rich, Yeah,
I just came. I smoke it. Ie like Manzi is
the only one that understands me. How old is Manzi?
Speaker 3 (13:55):
Bro?
Speaker 1 (13:56):
And how old are you? You know?
Speaker 2 (13:58):
When I was thirty something too, I was playing company
softball league. I am now my daughter's chauffeur. She has
no kids, different life. Are you living her life? Are
you living the life of a forty something your old
guy sounds to me, you're living a life of a
thirty year old, your year old young woman who no kids.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
She gets me, all right, Uh, let's.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
This dude's in like seven softball leagues and expects me
like to I don't know understand that.
Speaker 7 (14:22):
I think Rich for his his age is an outlier
like the man has like how many how much?
Speaker 1 (14:27):
How many hours of sleep do you get every night?
Speaker 3 (14:28):
Like three?
Speaker 1 (14:29):
I would imagine that endless amount of energy. You just
pump bop out of bed and you're like, ha, I
would say you like midnight to six or one am
to seven am? Is the you're built differently? Did you
just say, bop out of bed? My grandfather.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Bop it out of bed, swinging my step man a
niggla in my poka an out of bed. Let's let's
pivot pivot to the w n B A and you're shocked,
you're rich? You want to talk about w NBA. Not really,
But there's a story. There's a story, a headline that
did get me pulled in. It's Sophie Cunningham, who's all
(15:07):
the buzz.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
I'm finding her pretty hot.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Yeah, I mean everyone is, especially after she's stuck up
for Kitlyn Clark. Not only is she physically hot, I
find her whole attitude and vibe hot, Like I think
she's that girl is.
Speaker 5 (15:19):
Fuck in the headline, which Monsey covered in her update,
is that Clark is not going to play against.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Second not playing Yeah, so a matchup, another matchup that
she's gonna miss that one.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
The matchup everyone wanted. Another game, they'll have twelve people
in attendance, were getting it. Sophie Cunningham speaks on the
fever struggles recently. Again there's seven and eight. Caitlyn Clark's out,
she's game to game, not playing against the Dallas Wings.
You heard Moncy talk about it. That's the matchup everyone
wanted to see. She says, we're circled on everybody's schedule.
(15:49):
No one likes us, and I think that's a lot
to do with Caitlyn Clark, a lot to do with
people knowing that she's the one to beat. If they
have success with her and her team, they get talked about,
they're highlighted, they could go viral. Right, There's a lot
(16:12):
of reasons. So is it good to play with a
target on your back? That's number one? Do they not
like the fever or do they not just like Caitlin Clark.
That's another way to look at it too. There's a
lot going on there. Or are they just the team
to beat because of all the hype around now, Well,
it can't be the team to be it if you're
under five hundred. That's how like when people say people
are gonna play harder against them because that's their super Bowl.
(16:33):
When people say, oh, we got the Chief circled on
the calendar this year, it's because every team is like,
all right, that's our litmus test. How are we against
Mahomes Kelsey and a team that is a dynasty. And
there's also more eyes on that team, so they want
to step it up and bring their best that game.
But usual many factors, the sentiment of that game is circled.
Is a revenge game or a litmus test? I think
(16:55):
this is an attention test, And you mildly pointed out,
let me back you up that. I think there's a
lot of players in the WNBA that look at this
as my chance to get noticed and get noticed could
meet a sponsorship. Get noticed can mean trending on TikTok
or Instagram or x. You play Kaitlin Clark, and that's
why I do think Kaitlyn Clark gets roughed up. I mean,
(17:18):
you could say it's because you know, you know, you
would think women support women, but they go at each other.
I think to f like Kaitlin Clark is like recipe
number one to get attention. Yeah, but you want to
show that person too. If she's so good, let's see it.
I'm bringing my aid game today.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
What you got?
Speaker 5 (17:35):
I think truly some of these women don't like the
attention she's getting there.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Yes, the NBA too, You've been in the league for
a few years and she comes in. She's everybody's darling.
She's getting all the credit. They don't like her attitude.
Maybe there's so many factors here.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
They're like, you're getting seventy five thousand a year. I'm
only getting twenty five thousand.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Let me tell you, Danny, the thought though of these
women saying like, like, yo, she group, which is she
dac great? Like there is a cattiness going on, and
it happens among men too, but you're seeing it on
you know, the main stage chair at the WNBA that
there are a lot of women that just hate the attention.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
And we talked about Kelsey Plum just the other day.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Now, there's two ways to look at this. The headline
well that I wrote down on my notes here. Do
you like the whole vibe of like, yo, come at me, bro,
or do you like to lay low and sort of
be successful under the radar, Because right now they're under
five hundred. Right now, the Fever are seven and eight. Yes,
Kaitlyn Clark has missed a couple of games. They'll likely
(18:36):
be a postseason team, but there's seven and eight. I
love it really on now, and I think I love
it because it speaks volumes more about the people that
are hating on Caitlyn Clark and circling the schedule than
it does about Caitlin Clark or anyone else. Because if
you're reaching for greatness and you're achieving the way Caitlyn
Clark is, it just screams of envy, really he does.
(19:00):
When people are coming at her the way that they are,
they're just jealous. Instead of embracing what she's doing for
the league and for the attention of the league and
the overall greater good of the league, they're coming at her,
trying to knock her down, trying to rough her up.
It speaks more about them and their insecurities than it
does about Kaitlin Clark.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
Of the INDIASA.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
It's definitely a combinating That's what I'm saying, Like, if
someone's gonna hate on me because I'm doing well, it's
more on them. You're just doing what you're trying to
do and trying to accomplish. I think it's a combination
of those things. There is a jealousy, like, you know,
hating on me because I'm doing well, I'm bringing attention.
But also there's a big layer of yo if you
It's almost like if you dated an influencer, all of
(19:41):
a sudden, you'd get more followers. I know it's a
dumb analogy, right, but if you mess with Kaitlyn Clark,
by nature, you are in the headline So and so
elbows Kaitlyn Clark to the ground, and now all of
a sudden, you're like a cool name in the WNBA while.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
They're looking for players.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Because the average person you ask, the average dude named
w n B A players go, they'd stop at four
or five. They'd say Kitlyn Clark, Angel reesge Becker's.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Yeah, is she still playing? No, but that's who they
would mentioned that they would have. That would be in
the five something Lobo who is Bobo?
Speaker 4 (20:18):
Cameron Brink yeahs a broadcast she doesn't playing?
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Got rested in Russia? Uh, Brittany Grinder.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Brittany Grinder like you, you you'd be Kelsey Plum, Kelsey Plum.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
Sabrina and Esco said, the three Stewart start.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
So, but but I think we're that now we're at
the limit, and that's about you. We're Angel Wilson. Okay,
we're doing all right.
Speaker 5 (20:46):
Did anyone say the legendary supe bird super super simplify
the question?
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Good one stupid? That's where he chimes it.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Found everybody else eight seven seven ninety nine? Oh fox,
all right, let me we could simplify this really easy.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Ready.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Sophie Cunningham talks about the Fever struggles and she says,
we're circled on everyone's schedule. No one likes us because
they're seven and eight right now. I guess you could
really simplify it by asking why are the Fever really really?
Why are the Fever circled on everyone's schedule? And why
doesn't anyone really like them? Because it's gonna be the
(21:27):
the most eyes on them. It's a litmus test to
play against Caitlyn Clark.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
What's the reason?
Speaker 2 (21:33):
And they they've they probably secretly just don't like her. Listen,
and they're jealous a little.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
They are.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
Good.
Speaker 7 (21:40):
Let me just I think Kaitlyn Clark's now miss this
is either four or five games she's missed.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
They're not that good right now, right, Yeah, that's what
I'm saying. But they did.
Speaker 7 (21:45):
They went on the road and they beat the Seattle
Storm without Kaitlyn Clark having a good game. They still
won because Eliah Boston was great. They can win without her.
But they've already beaten the Liberty. They were the first
take the Liberty down. When they're undefeated, they've They've had
some other great wins when they're at their healthiest, at
their best, they are one of the better teams a
UNBA hands down.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
This conversation in itself is proof of what this woman
has done for the league.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
I don't think.
Speaker 7 (22:08):
Remember last summer, You're like, oh, this will taper off,
Like I'm not. I don't expect this to last until September,
you know, Yeah, I do. Into late summer.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
We're trying to get to the bottom of something. But
more than one thing can be true, right I'm sure
a lot of people don't like her because they're jealous
and they just don't like the attention she gets. But
at the same time, you circle that game on the
schedule because you know you have to bring your a
game because there's more eyes on that game than any
other game. Hey, kov, if you're a young player in
the major leagues, right, when do you like to see
how you fare against scooble or maybe schemes or like
(22:37):
that's your test of like, all right, how how do
I perform against the best pictures in the game. I
think a lot of these young female you know WNBA
players are saying, all right, let's see how I fare
against Caitlyn Clark, the famous eye rollie.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Everyone loves her Kaitlin Clark.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
So you're right, there's a little bit of hate and
there's a little bit of a I like I said,
a little bit, how am I? You want to be
the player in life, the player on the court, the
boxer in the ring with the target on your back,
Because if you're that person, that just means you're the champ.
That means you're the best. That means you're the one
that everybody's going after and to be the man you
got to beat the man who said that Rick Flair. Yeah,
but it's true in life, you know, if you're really
(23:15):
the one with the target on your back, it's because
you're the best one out there.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
So that's who you really want to be.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
So all the props in the world to the Fever
and Caitlin Clark because whether you like it or not,
they're the ones they're trying to beat your thoughts. I
see the phones are hot. Let's go eight seven to seven,
nine to nine on Fox. We got more Covino and Rich.
More Friday action packed fun here on Fox Sports Radio,
(23:43):
going back to the phones, getting you involved like we
always do, the most inclusive show on radio, Covino and
Rich the world famous cn R on FSR. Danny g
Super producing eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. If
you want to chime in, or at Covino and Rich
at Fox Sports Radio. On social media, thanks to all
who partied with us in Vegas. People still adding pictures
(24:04):
and posting pictures. We appreciate it, so you can check
ours out at Covino and Rich mancy Man she was
partying in Vegas pool side, bringing the party. She's great,
She's bringing the updates. In about ten minutes, we got
Iowa Sam on the ones and twos and again let's
(24:25):
get back to the phones and the conversation. Sophie Cunningham
of the Indiana Fever basically said that nobody likes them
in the league and they're circled on everybody's schedule. I
guess the core of the question is, well, why why
doesn't anyone really like them?
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Why are they.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Circled Yo, to quote your favorite nineties pop rock band,
the Jim Blossoms, not mine, yours, baby, Hey, jealousy.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
That's a lot of it, all jealousy.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
And during the break I was Sam and I had
a better conversation than we did on the air.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
I know you love that. I hate that, but it's true.
You can't get me. Here's the thing. Everybody has a
different path.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
You can't get mad because someone brought attention to something
you were working hard at all along.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
You really can't. Some WNBA player can't be mad that what.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Now we're popular because of Kaitlyn Clark. Yeah, no one cared.
I'm sorry to tell you now they do. You should
be grateful for Kaitlyn Clark, the attention angel Reesprings, the
attention that you know Paige Becker's that is what you
desire and love. Comino and I worked at Serious XM
for a good fifteen years. Right to say we weren't
(25:35):
thankful when Howard Stern signed on. He brought attention to
a network that we were on that was trying to
gain some steam.
Speaker 5 (25:43):
He brought how many followers to the subscribers.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Right we started there there were hundreds of thousands of
people to tens of millions. I think it went from
three hundred thousand subscribers to three million, Like overnight is crazy? Yeah, overnight,
and now now you know over thirty almost forty million.
It It baffle me how anyone would be anything other
than just be like, you know, you might not like
it personally, but yeah, grateful for what her and some
of these young women brought, especially her the end.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Hey, but I look at it this way too from
the flip side. Rich. Yeah, envy and all that jealousy.
But whatever lights your fire man, whatever gets you fired
up and motivated.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
Man, I agree with that you see that on the
court and you get a better product.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
It gets us talking. It gets a.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Weeny thinking though to be like, but I was working
hard all long. Yeah, well guess what no one can
now they do, So embrace it.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
Embrace it. Let's go to the phones. You call it
hold on, You call it jealousy. I might call it
also frustration. I think people are frustrated because I.
Speaker 7 (26:36):
Was just looking at that they're moving games from their
smaller home venues to larger venues to accommodate the Caitlyn
clar and crap Kaitlyn Clark crowd, and those people are
probably like, well, they're coming into our place. They're gonna
come into our home arena. Oh, we're gonna teach them
a lesson.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
That would be like us getting mad that we're having
a big company dinner and I don't know, Colin said
he was coming, So now they change it to a
nicer restaurant.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
You'd be like, awesome, thank you, Colin.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
We were we were going to cheesecake Factory the minute
Coward said he's coming. Now we're going to you know,
del Friscoes.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Come in.
Speaker 5 (27:07):
Yeah, but it would be him changing the restaurant for
a CRC for your home court.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
I get. I.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Yeah's team to be. She's the team to be. And
that's really it. All right your calls, Now, let's get
you involved. We'll go to Kansas and DJ different, what's up?
Speaker 1 (27:26):
DJ?
Speaker 3 (27:28):
Hey, what's up you guys? Talk to you guys.
Speaker 6 (27:31):
Hey, I haven't talked to you guys along in a
long while.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
I like you guys, Andrew. But let me get right
to the point.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
Yeah man, Okay, Caitlin Clark if the ladies don't know
how to step up their game.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
To get past her, Okay.
Speaker 6 (27:42):
It's like Michael Jordan when he first came to league.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
Nobody liked him too.
Speaker 6 (27:46):
Something about when you guys said about.
Speaker 4 (27:49):
Something that you like to do.
Speaker 6 (27:51):
I'm like sixty or sixty one something and one of
those numbers. I like playing basketball, but I coached basketball.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
So I'll talk to a young ballplayers.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Come up, be better than me and be better.
Speaker 5 (28:02):
Than you other ball players.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
Thank you, guys for the topic. I love you, guys.
I'm off the hook.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
He love you may different man. Thanks for the call.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
And by the way, that is an interesting thought too.
If you're one of those people that love to play sports,
and I question, well, why don't you play? If you coach,
that could fulfill that that passion. I just feel it's
interesting that. But we also also fulfills the passion talking
about it every day like we do fulfills the passion.
You think Brian Windhorst is out there hitting jumpers or
is at best? I don't think he ever was. But
(28:29):
that's the point. You're allowed to be a fan. Kaylee
in Fresnel.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
Hi, Kaylee, Hi, Hi.
Speaker 6 (28:39):
I'm so excited to talk to you guys. Honestly, I
listen to you every day. What a throw. I just
had two quick comments. One was I guess about Kaylen
Clark really quick. There's so few spots for women to
be praised in any any circuit that's dominated by men,
and it's just forced us into a competitive position. We
in situations where we are minute we support each other.
(29:01):
In situations where we're competing for attention or competing for
a spot, or competing for praise, then we have no
choice but to be unsupportive. And I think that goes
across the board. It's not a women thing, it's a
it's a people thing, and it just happens to be
more our thing.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
And you know what, agreed, I'm going I'm going to
give you the weakest analogy, but you'll agree. It's it's
like the Bachelor. You know, women will support each other
unless twenty five are fighting over the same dude.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
Right.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
Exactly. I mean it's no matter how awful that dude is. Yes,
what else you got, Kayley?
Speaker 6 (29:32):
And then just really quick, as a mother of a
son and a wife playing sports at any age right now,
they've kind of sucked all the sun out of it.
Unless you're really good, there isn't a space for you.
And even like my forty year old husband, who was
a baseball player and a football player and a wrestler,
wanted to join one of those little softball leagues and
(29:53):
he's like, gosh, I had fun playing softball, but I
don't want to spend all weekend with a bunch of
dudes who are trying to get away from their wives
and kids. And I feel like that's kind of the
environment that has been created in adult sports. It's like, well,
let's come out here and talk bad about our families
or complain about our lives. And it's really not about
guys who just want to play softball or just want
(30:13):
to play basketball with their buddies. I mean, I'm sure
it is like there's no no broadstrokes, and.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
There's a lot of dudes without not in all, but
without families and kids.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
They have a lot of time on their hands. I
mean it's a good mix of both. That is a
great call. Thank you, good point, Kaylee. Appreciate you, Kaylee.
Like I like some female callers, they always make more sense. Yeah,
you're always welcome.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
Isn't that the story of our lives.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
It's like they make sense on the phone, but on
the basketball court and I don't know, they're trying to
take down the one person that matters.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
And Kelsey Plumb doesn't want to sign autograph exactly.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
All right, well, Monzie, you want to make sense of
an update? What's what's doing in the world today.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
You know, it's funny that you brought up The Bachelor,
because what was it, like a week ago? We saw
all these fights in the w NBA, like multiple games,
and I like, you guys embarrassing me. It's like I
watch the slur because I enjoyed the drama in the
house with all the girls when the Bachelorette, all the
bros are freaking homies by the end of it.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
Different.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
It is so different. But that is the perfect example.
Speaker 4 (31:12):
I said that to Shae, who works your with us,
who was also parting it up in Vegas.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
All right, yeah, Kaylyn Clark, I think chased all hung
over from.
Speaker 4 (31:22):
He flew in Sunday and was here and I saw
him and I was like, I can't He's like I was.
I was with Covino four hours ago.
Speaker 7 (31:29):
He said he was at a black he was working,
and he's like, I was at a blackjack table four.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
Hours Not to call it our buddy, Shay. I know
you got your updates. But my wife was on the
same flight as him. Oh yeah, oh no, he told me,
and she Sarah found.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
They were boarding the plane and she said, Shay was
at the airport just sleeping upright, and she's like, you
gotta get on the plane.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
Yes, you told me to be at Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
I think it's yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
He would have missed the flight if she didn't wake
him up. She He absolutely told me he's only Sarah
saved him. On Sunday, left in the luggage compartment. Fever
start Kayling Clark.
Speaker 4 (31:59):
Yeah, I missing her second game tonight with that left
growing injury. Unfortunately, it is the first matchup against Page
Beckers and the Wings, but there are more matchups later
in the season in the NBA.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
Well Ace Bailey, the.
Speaker 4 (32:10):
Fifth overall Pikey, plans to report to the Utah Jazz
on Saturday, ESPN with the story Masai U Jury is
out as vice chairman and president off their thirteen seasons
with the Toronto Raptors. They went thirty and fifty two
this past season, missed the postseason for the third straight year.
An autograph Michael Jordan rookie card sold for two point
five million dollars, the most ever.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
Paid for a Jordan rookie card.
Speaker 4 (32:32):
And in baseball, Mariners catcher Cal Raley leads the majors
in homers with thirty two. Said he's going to participate
in next month's Home Run Derby. No catcher has ever
won the Derby, which began in nineteen eighty five, and
apparently Elie de la Cruz of the Reds declined to participate.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
Already in the Home Run Derby. So right now it's
just cal Raley and Ronald Acunya Junior. Back to you guys.
I mean, I'm happy to hear that. And you know
about that. You know, my favorite meathead'll probably get involved
pedalaloons over, I hope.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
So.
Speaker 4 (32:59):
Also, I'm sure you saw Met's picture Griffin Cannon ruptured
his achilles.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Yeah, that was that. He was a great addition to
the Mets. Like you got a perfect middle of the
rotation guy, and you know you hate you always say this,
people say, man, we have too many starting pictures and
you're like, no.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
No, solve itself. I promise absolutely, always something that goes down.
Thank you, Monci, thank you.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
And speaking of cal Raley, we're going to talk about
him in a few minutes and his big dumper and
his big dumper because he is participating in the home
run derby. Who does the honor go to? Let's say
it was you and the home run derby. Do you
pick a relative, a former coach, pitch friend. Well, for
cal Raley, it's his dad, So what would you do? Plus,
(33:45):
I also want to talk how close the MVP voting
would be if it was him and Judge right now.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
So we'll talk a little cal Raleigh.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
And we still got to get to Weekend Hobnobbing podcast reviews.
We have a lot to get to. We got more
Covino and Rich live from the Fox Sports Radio studio.
So we're playing some po d good choice there, say,
I'm feeling alive, getting ready for the weekend. Friday's here
(34:11):
fight Weekend Chavez Junior, Jake Paul, I'll tell you all
about it during Weekend Hobnobby.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
But I am feeling alive.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
He's playing pod Payable on Death, the band from San
Diego representing the big SD oh San Diego, and last
night I was trying to pick the hardcore four I
named it of that era of music.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
Do you want to hear who they are? Real quick?
Speaker 2 (34:35):
The hardcore four of like nineties two thousand's rock. Well,
it sounded cooler than Mount Rushmore. Right, the hardcore four,
I like it. Let's hear that up. Did you put
pod on there?
Speaker 1 (34:44):
No? I did not, but I do like them. I
respect him.
Speaker 2 (34:46):
Wilson James, No, that's Lithium Erica's desk run gerrow RK.
So I'm talking to Nigary Divorce Dad Rocks Shindown Nope,
but a lot of people chimed in with Shinedown because
they're a legitimate band. So I'll give you my four
at least try to guess a little bit System of
a Down absolutely in it yep during the Mount Rushmore all.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
Right, of that era.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
Guys of this era, like late nineties, early two thousand,
Corn Corn absolutely yep, System Corn two more System.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
Any any guesses Danny I was saying System of Down.
Speaker 7 (35:18):
I actually saw Coven's tweets, so I don't want to
give it away.
Speaker 2 (35:21):
I'll follow Oh yeah, he's busy. I'm busy playing soft
softball with I get Guzlin buddies. So let's hear the
other two. Lincoln Park because there was a lot of
there's a lot of rock, but they did it the
best right And I said, it's gotta be Metallica.
Speaker 1 (35:36):
But Metallica is their own mountain. They're their own mountain.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
They transcend generation some throwing limp biscuit in there for
what they meant for what they meant for that era,
but it's debatable, that's just fun, but previous generations. It's
easier to pick the Core four, the mount rushmore that era.
It's a little more difficult. When you mentioned Lincoln Park,
I you could argue they are very rated.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
I still feel like they are underrated songs.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
They're like crossover to the mainstream rock pop everything. I
think the song this is a bold statement. I think
the song in the end by Lincoln Park, Oh could
be a top It could be a top three song
of that decade.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
Great party trick too, because you walk by any piano,
you just hit the.
Speaker 2 (36:17):
Ding dinging, and then women are like, oh my god,
you play you didn't know and then you walk away.
Speaker 5 (36:24):
Like all like Oh, and isn't that the one they
remixed with jay Z Yeah? Oh okay, the last one,
I'm thinking Red Yankee Hat.
Speaker 1 (36:33):
The Bisiness, Yeah, yeah, that was my one.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
That was my one because Metallic is too massive and
I'm not sure they're they're defining of that era and they've.
Speaker 1 (36:41):
Been around for twenty years already, so but.
Speaker 2 (36:43):
We do play them, and I'll be talking more about
it on Turbo tonight, that series six on Turbo forty one.
But the place to be is Fox Sports Radio right here.
If you're on the iHeartRadio app, thank you. If you're
listening to the podcast in the future, thank you. And
that brings us to the tire Rack play.
Speaker 3 (36:58):
Of the Day.
Speaker 2 (37:00):
It's the team with the best record in baseball right now.
The three two pitch swinging to ground ball to second base,
sliding backhand istop by Torres gets up toos Tigers win.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
Tigers win.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
That's courtesy of Tiger's radio network, and that's our tirect
player of the day. For forty years, our friends to
ti iraq Ye have been finding the right tires for how,
what and where they drive. Ship fast and free back
by free road hazard protection with convenient insulation options like
mobile tire Insallation, Tiraq dot Com, the way tire buying
should be.
Speaker 1 (37:31):
And by the way, the.
Speaker 2 (37:31):
Tigers when they're good, it's really fun for that Al Central.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
You know, we forget that they Troy is popping right now.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
After Sports Teams, there was a moment where we talked
about how the Texas Rangers got close a couple of times.
You know, they won a couple of years ago, but mameybe,
they lost a few World Series. You could say the
same about the Tigers, that the Verlander years and all
that they got close and lost a few World Series
and you know, never never got over that hump. So hey,
maybe this year they're your biggest a competition there. Yankees boy, well,
(38:02):
speaking of baseball, Yankees boy, here to remind you that
Aaron Judge is still the guy. Okay, cal Rawly's doing
great things. There's a two part dousy right here. Cal
rally announced he's in the home run derby first and
first mostly, I want to give him prompts because a
lot of people shy away from it. Could mess your
swing up. Some people believe in that happened to Bobby Abray.
You famously, people remember he was never the same after that, Right,
(38:26):
because you're hacking, you get tired.
Speaker 3 (38:27):
You It's happened to a few players.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
It's happened to a few players. So I give him
all the props in the world. He's having a career season.
We've never seen anything like that for this position, right,
breaking all sorts of catcher records. And he announced that
his dad is pitching to him, Like, what an honor.
We've seen it before, Robbie Cano and a few other players.
What an honor for him and his dad who was
throwing him backyard whiffleballs, probably his whole life. So the
(38:51):
first question is who would you choose? Like, who do
you give that honor to? A former coach? If it
was me, do I reach out to my former j
av coach, mister Hamburg because my varsity coach passed away unfortunately,
But shout out to mister Seplinski, an old college pal,
a high school friend. You're whiffle ball buddy. You might
(39:12):
have to call the kid you loged the most hours
of playing with. Like, if you have that neighborhood kid
that right that you played home run derby with and whiffleball,
that might be his shining moment a.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
Thrill, right, like Steve made it, you know, like, or
does my dad get on the mountain? Hey, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
My arm's hurting a little bit. I wouldn't want to
put that sort of pressure on my dad. Hey choke up,
but again that's my dad.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
Yeah, I don't know. I haven't thrown a ball in
about thirty five years old. Now hit the green, yeah,
night between Yeah, here you go.
Speaker 2 (39:39):
All right, right, my dad pulls something in the moment,
So who would you give that honor to? And then
we got to talk MVP man because that's the big talk.
Right now, we got more Cavino and Rich next

Hi guys, Happy Fridayday, Friday Friday.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Thank you guys for getting involved with us over there.
I have not a heard of Bill Belichick update a minute.
I heard Sam play the Friday Today's Friday. But what
was the last time you heard from Bill Belichick and
his girlfriend.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Pablo Torre's probably talking about it as we speak. Pab
is naked in his room thinking about it. That guy's
obsessed all the guy that's leaking all the stories. I mean,
God bless him.
Speaker 1 (02:17):
Bill Melijack.
Speaker 2 (02:18):
Yeah, I say that respectfully, but yeah, he's the guy
all about it. So I don't know, let me DM
and we'll find out. Maybe we'll get an update.
Speaker 1 (02:26):
Well, we got a lot to get to today.
Speaker 2 (02:27):
We're going to talk about the Harper's, the basketball family,
newly drafted Dylan and his dad Ron.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
There's a col Rawley story.
Speaker 2 (02:37):
We're going to talk about Sophie Cunningham and Caitlin Clark.
But I gotta ask you real quick out the gate.
As we get our Friday show started. We talk about
sports every day. We talked to the Fox Sports Radio Nation,
people from the East coast, West coast, different countries, different states.
Speaker 3 (02:55):
Don't forget the middle of the country.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
Middle America, bro, Middle Earth.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
If you're such a sports fan, do you need to
at least play some sport, be somewhat active. Derek Jeter
loves sports more than you said. He hasn't swung a
bat in ten years.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
A good example. How he built his whole life in sports.
That's a terrible example. How is that a terrible example?
Because that's somebody's talking about who loves sports more than
a guy that built his whole life.
Speaker 2 (03:24):
Sorry, I don't get it because I live in a
world of competing in things that matter. You know, I'm
not wasting my time doing recreational nonsense. I don't get
it my hobbies, dude. I mean, if your hobbies, my
hobbies is doing radio. I love that is your job,
but it's also my hobby.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
You know.
Speaker 2 (03:42):
I didn't get into this because it was a job.
I got into it because I love it. So that's
my hobby. I'm talking about like a hobby, though, Broye
love it. Playing goofy into real sports was something I
did when I was in my twenties for fun. But
I'm saying thoughts don't have that time or mental energy
for that sort of thing. I'm just saying, if you're
down to you're a sports fan and you watch every
day and you're analyzing the NBA, w NBA baseball, football, basketball.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
You're so involved.
Speaker 2 (04:06):
I'm just shocked that a lot of people don't actually
play sports. Golf, tennis, softball, volleyball, pickup basketball. A lot
of people do because that's their exercise, that's their joy.
Speaker 1 (04:19):
That's why.
Speaker 5 (04:19):
Yeah, you do it when you cannot in an organized
way where you have to make a commitment.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
Yeah, this guy's like call me up on a Wednesday
night on his ride home from a softball game at
ten pm, Like, no thanks.
Speaker 1 (04:30):
If you love.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
Sports so much, I'm shocked at more love more than
chilling on a Wednesday night.
Speaker 1 (04:36):
So chilling is what you prefer.
Speaker 2 (04:38):
Yeah, because my mental energy is going to the next
day of work. You're spreading yourself thin. That's how I
feel about it.
Speaker 1 (04:43):
Well, life's not about work.
Speaker 2 (04:45):
If you love what you do, which I do, I
don't know about you. Don't be one dimensional balance, Daniel, balance,
it's not you know where. I just came from the gym,
so that's my exercise, sure about thought? So yeah, I'm
pretty sure. Look at it wearing And I just saw
the boss as I was leaving the gym, and I
was nice and sweaty, and I give him a nice
sweaty hug. I think you know, Hey, man, I'm in
(05:08):
my late forties. I had my glory in my twenties thirties.
My fulfillment comes from achieving things as a parent, watching
my nephews play sports, excelling in my career. Hitting a
goofy softball home run doesn't have that same thrill or
importance to me as it did when I was a
younger guy, because that's when it mattered what happened to me.
(05:29):
The phrase work hard, play hard, play hard means Hey,
I'm going to Bahamas next month. I'll see you there.
I'm not trying to like play recreational song. I'm just saying,
we all love sports so much. I'm just shocked that.
But people do love sports so much. But a lot
of people do, so, I don't know where you're getting
this from. There's so many dudes that play pickleball or
(05:49):
beach volleyball or pick up basketball like ghost plenty.
Speaker 3 (05:54):
My cousin just started golf.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
Yeah, I mean because that's fun for them and they
need that sort of release.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
My work is fun. I don't need.
Speaker 2 (06:02):
I'm not stressed out in that way where I need
to escape the way some people do.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
Oh, so you play sports, I do? Yeah? What do
you play right now? I'm blaming volleyball, but in my
life I've played other sports.
Speaker 2 (06:13):
I'm also like fifteen years older than her, with the
kid and three other jobs, So you expect me to
be living her life.
Speaker 1 (06:19):
You're out of your mind. I'm just saying, the spot
does yoga. I was just at the gym. What are
you talking about? So stay active? Hell?
Speaker 2 (06:26):
Yeah, go take a walk, take a dog for a walk.
To speed your kids. How about you stay home with
howbout you take a kid to get.
Speaker 1 (06:32):
Some ice cream or something? Does kid corral and count?
Speaker 6 (06:35):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (06:37):
Busy people are exhausted. People have real lives.
Speaker 2 (06:40):
I don't think my parents were worried about like playing
beach volleyball when they had five kids.
Speaker 7 (06:45):
Listen, if Rich did not burn off some of that
extra energy, you don't know what he'd be like.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
Yeah, he's that needs a walk. Not everyone.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Yeah, some people like to relax a little bit. I
think you're undermining the importance of chilling and I don't know,
enjoying the home you paid for. You have a pool
in your house, enjoy that in that you have to
go you have to you have to go out. Yeah,
he's like Francis Buckston, but the files are in the computer.
Speaker 1 (07:08):
He has a pool in his house.
Speaker 3 (07:10):
You know.
Speaker 2 (07:11):
Rich is saying, if you love sports so much, why
don't you play sports. I think there's a lot of
people that do, a lot of people that I just
want to throw it out there because I see everyone
on this network and other networks.
Speaker 1 (07:21):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, been about.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Stan Meyer plays golf all the time, Monsey plays softball,
and every she's in a million different leagues. She's playing
Ultimate Frisbee tonight. Probably she plays cricket. Yeah, dany G
has twelve kids. Where does he have time to do that?
He's got a kickball game, win Iowa, Sam, I play
pocket pool. Yeah, there you go, spy as a yoga master, Like,
what do you expect?
Speaker 1 (07:42):
What do you want people to do?
Speaker 2 (07:43):
We are adults. You know time is limited. That's how
I feel about it. It's what do you choose to
do in your spare time? Sorry I brought it up.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
Well, I'm just trying to figure out where it came from.
Speaker 2 (07:56):
I'm just saying it's we we every day you know,
ainstorm topics ideas, we overanalyze and have so much fun
talking about sports. I would just imagine that you had
that same level of interest in playing sports. Well, yeay,
that talks about his twenty seven Litle League home runs
and how you looked like a young, spry, handsome Latino man.
(08:20):
But you think I have the same energy that I
had in my twenties and thirties. Ou on your mind
my birthdays? Next mons? Talk about how you down time?
I want to like relax. How you're the youngest guy
in this network. You're active, like your big micro runs
his place. Who prob what does he have like eight
hip replays with something like that. No, but that's why
I should I not just come back from the gym.
I'm sorry. It's not like I'm sitting home being lazy
(08:41):
all the time.
Speaker 1 (08:42):
Mike did competitive power slapping before it became a thing.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
He did, and by the way, I just found out
today that he was his high school heavyweight arm wrestling champion.
Speaker 1 (08:50):
So Mike, he was the guy from over the top. Yeah,
the guy taking on Slide. He's the one that Slide
I beat in the second scene.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
I think there's an in between phase of life where
you can't really play pick up basketball the way you
used to, and you're not quite ready for the golf course,
even though I think that's probably my next step. So
I mean, no one's canceling out on that. But I
think my focus is excelling in my career and when
I'm sort of where I want to be. Yeah, I
have time to dip away and hit the course, you know,
(09:19):
pick up a pickleball paddle. But I don't find the
importance the way some people do, because my life is fun.
Some people need to get away and get out of
the house. You got two rugrats at home, so I
could see you want to get out. I got a
teenage daughter. I co parent life is not as stressful
as you think, even though I do have an X
I got to deal with too. But you know, my
(09:40):
job got it up fine. My job is fun. So
this is my outlet. That's how I feel about it.
And some people that are just busy, bro busy with life,
get off Covino's back. Come on, I don't know if
he's on my back or I don't ever tell anymore. Yeah,
I don't know either. I'm trying to figureut where it
came from. It just came from just a simple idea.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
You know what I actually thought of. We were at
our big event.
Speaker 2 (10:01):
We had hundreds of people at Atomic Golf in Vegas,
and I'm walking around.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
I'm like, some of these people have never swung.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
A golf club yet they're all sports fans and having
swung golf no since I was like twenty something years
I'm saying, is that for just such a for people
that are so passionate about sports. I'm saying in the
general public, I feel like so many people watch but
don't actually participate.
Speaker 5 (10:22):
Well, think about movies and shows, like we're passionate about
that stuff, and we've never except for Covi, you know,
we've never been on TV shows.
Speaker 2 (10:30):
I look at it this way, Danny, all of us,
because I'm using my mental energy to do stuff that
matters to me. I'm just and pertains to my career.
Speaker 1 (10:39):
Rind fair. I'm just saying, like Hinn, a.
Speaker 2 (10:41):
Softball bomb does nothing for my confidence and nothing for
my me personally. If it does for you, that's fun saying.
But I'm trying to answer that question, talk about how
sports was such a big part of our childhood, how
nothing was more nothing was more fun than playing little league,
g wiffootball, high school football, you know, basketball, to Paul,
you know, all these things. I just find the funny
(11:02):
how we all sort of like stopped, not all of us.
I'm saying, I love pizza, but I don't make it.
I just buy it and need it.
Speaker 5 (11:09):
Well, we're going to revisit this when we get to
the MLB home run derby. Yeah, it's a good story there.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
By the way, we're gonna be there this year, so
I'm very excited.
Speaker 5 (11:18):
Yeah, Yeah, we're gonna have the details on Monday afternoon show.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Yeah, let's just open it up. Then eight that's the city,
I mean, Atlanta, Here we come, eight seven, seven ninety
nine one Fox. I love boxing. I've never been in
a boxing gym in my life.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
Well to work out, right.
Speaker 2 (11:31):
I'm just saying I'm done. If you love sports, and
I imagine you do. You're listening to Fox Sports Radio,
why don't you play sports? And the answer is probably,
I don't know, dude, because I'm fifty something and I'm.
Speaker 1 (11:44):
Tired of something.
Speaker 2 (11:46):
I'm saying for the most of the majority of our audioce,
I don't know, because I'm living my life and I
got to wake up for work the next day.
Speaker 5 (11:52):
Even our younger listeners, like my sons that are both
in college right now, they don't do sports anymore because
they're out of that part of their life. They played
high school sports, they're not playing collegiate I.
Speaker 3 (12:03):
Don't want to.
Speaker 2 (12:03):
I feel like I've had my glory there and I'm
trying to recapture or capture glory or recapture that same
feeling doing things that matter to me.
Speaker 1 (12:11):
Now those things don't matter to me now.
Speaker 5 (12:13):
I think we go I think we go through phases though,
because rich I was in that same Balboa league you're
in eight years ago when I was single and didn't
have a family. Now I have step kids in my
own little kid, so there's no time, like literally, I
couldn't carve out time to play in a league.
Speaker 2 (12:28):
And you think anyone loves sports more than Danny, Yeah,
I just you know what it's like, you know how.
I'll give you the example video games. There was a
time in college where I said, you know what, I
think I'm doing video games because I cared way more
about booty and getting ahead in like my career. I
was like, yo, I'm really loving radio and I'm really
loving all these random sarrity girls video games.
Speaker 3 (12:50):
It's been fun.
Speaker 1 (12:52):
Goodbye.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
I never did that with sports like I did when
I hung out my cleats, like for real, like I
was heay, I'm done, I'm moving on. And I focused
everything on broadcasting and everything on radio.
Speaker 1 (13:03):
That's the truth.
Speaker 2 (13:04):
And like I give you the answer, and I feel
like it's never suffice and you don't like get it
because I'm not you, and I think that would be
for the majority of people.
Speaker 1 (13:13):
I had my.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
Fulfillment playing sports, and now I get my fulfillment out
of succeeding as a parent, as a watching my kids,
succeed as a broadcaster, as a guy who's doing another
new television show that I talked about today right before
this show. You know, those are the things that threw
me now. Hitting a three point shot at the gym
(13:35):
at eight pm on a Thursday not my vibe anymore,
even though I'll still shoot around and I still go
to the gym every day.
Speaker 1 (13:45):
I think that's the least you could do. Take that, Rich, Yeah,
I just came. I smoke it. Ie like Manzi is
the only one that understands me. How old is Manzi?
Speaker 3 (13:55):
Bro?
Speaker 1 (13:56):
And how old are you? You know?
Speaker 2 (13:58):
When I was thirty something too, I was playing company
softball league. I am now my daughter's chauffeur. She has
no kids, different life. Are you living her life? Are
you living the life of a forty something your old
guy sounds to me, you're living a life of a
thirty year old, your year old young woman who no kids.
Speaker 1 (14:13):
She gets me, all right, Uh, let's.
Speaker 2 (14:17):
This dude's in like seven softball leagues and expects me
like to I don't know understand that.
Speaker 7 (14:22):
I think Rich for his his age is an outlier
like the man has like how many how much?
Speaker 1 (14:27):
How many hours of sleep do you get every night?
Speaker 3 (14:28):
Like three?
Speaker 1 (14:29):
I would imagine that endless amount of energy. You just
pump bop out of bed and you're like, ha, I
would say you like midnight to six or one am
to seven am? Is the you're built differently? Did you
just say, bop out of bed? My grandfather.
Speaker 2 (14:45):
Bop it out of bed, swinging my step man a
niggla in my poka an out of bed. Let's let's
pivot pivot to the w n B A and you're shocked,
you're rich? You want to talk about w NBA. Not really,
But there's a story. There's a story, a headline that
did get me pulled in. It's Sophie Cunningham, who's all
(15:07):
the buzz.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
I'm finding her pretty hot.
Speaker 2 (15:09):
Yeah, I mean everyone is, especially after she's stuck up
for Kitlyn Clark. Not only is she physically hot, I
find her whole attitude and vibe hot, Like I think
she's that girl is.
Speaker 5 (15:19):
Fuck in the headline, which Monsey covered in her update,
is that Clark is not going to play against.
Speaker 4 (15:25):
Second not playing Yeah, so a matchup, another matchup that
she's gonna miss that one.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
The matchup everyone wanted. Another game, they'll have twelve people
in attendance, were getting it. Sophie Cunningham speaks on the
fever struggles recently. Again there's seven and eight. Caitlyn Clark's out,
she's game to game, not playing against the Dallas Wings.
You heard Moncy talk about it. That's the matchup everyone
wanted to see. She says, we're circled on everybody's schedule.
(15:49):
No one likes us, and I think that's a lot
to do with Caitlyn Clark, a lot to do with
people knowing that she's the one to beat. If they
have success with her and her team, they get talked about,
they're highlighted, they could go viral. Right, There's a lot
(16:12):
of reasons. So is it good to play with a
target on your back? That's number one? Do they not
like the fever or do they not just like Caitlin Clark.
That's another way to look at it too. There's a
lot going on there. Or are they just the team
to beat because of all the hype around now, Well,
it can't be the team to be it if you're
under five hundred. That's how like when people say people
are gonna play harder against them because that's their super Bowl.
(16:33):
When people say, oh, we got the Chief circled on
the calendar this year, it's because every team is like,
all right, that's our litmus test. How are we against
Mahomes Kelsey and a team that is a dynasty. And
there's also more eyes on that team, so they want
to step it up and bring their best that game.
But usual many factors, the sentiment of that game is circled.
Is a revenge game or a litmus test? I think
(16:55):
this is an attention test, And you mildly pointed out,
let me back you up that. I think there's a
lot of players in the WNBA that look at this
as my chance to get noticed and get noticed could
meet a sponsorship. Get noticed can mean trending on TikTok
or Instagram or x. You play Kaitlin Clark, and that's
why I do think Kaitlyn Clark gets roughed up. I mean,
(17:18):
you could say it's because you know, you know, you
would think women support women, but they go at each other.
I think to f like Kaitlin Clark is like recipe
number one to get attention. Yeah, but you want to
show that person too. If she's so good, let's see it.
I'm bringing my aid game today.
Speaker 1 (17:35):
What you got?
Speaker 5 (17:35):
I think truly some of these women don't like the
attention she's getting there.
Speaker 2 (17:39):
Yes, the NBA too, You've been in the league for
a few years and she comes in. She's everybody's darling.
She's getting all the credit. They don't like her attitude.
Maybe there's so many factors here.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
They're like, you're getting seventy five thousand a year. I'm
only getting twenty five thousand.
Speaker 2 (17:53):
Let me tell you, Danny, the thought though of these
women saying like, like, yo, she group, which is she
dac great? Like there is a cattiness going on, and
it happens among men too, but you're seeing it on
you know, the main stage chair at the WNBA that
there are a lot of women that just hate the attention.
Speaker 3 (18:13):
And we talked about Kelsey Plum just the other day.
Speaker 2 (18:16):
Now, there's two ways to look at this. The headline
well that I wrote down on my notes here. Do
you like the whole vibe of like, yo, come at me, bro,
or do you like to lay low and sort of
be successful under the radar, Because right now they're under
five hundred. Right now, the Fever are seven and eight. Yes,
Kaitlyn Clark has missed a couple of games. They'll likely
(18:36):
be a postseason team, but there's seven and eight. I
love it really on now, and I think I love
it because it speaks volumes more about the people that
are hating on Caitlyn Clark and circling the schedule than
it does about Caitlin Clark or anyone else. Because if
you're reaching for greatness and you're achieving the way Caitlyn
Clark is, it just screams of envy, really he does.
(19:00):
When people are coming at her the way that they are,
they're just jealous. Instead of embracing what she's doing for
the league and for the attention of the league and
the overall greater good of the league, they're coming at her,
trying to knock her down, trying to rough her up.
It speaks more about them and their insecurities than it
does about Kaitlin Clark.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
Of the INDIASA.
Speaker 2 (19:19):
It's definitely a combinating That's what I'm saying, Like, if
someone's gonna hate on me because I'm doing well, it's
more on them. You're just doing what you're trying to
do and trying to accomplish. I think it's a combination
of those things. There is a jealousy, like, you know,
hating on me because I'm doing well, I'm bringing attention.
But also there's a big layer of yo if you
It's almost like if you dated an influencer, all of
(19:41):
a sudden, you'd get more followers. I know it's a
dumb analogy, right, but if you mess with Kaitlyn Clark,
by nature, you are in the headline So and so
elbows Kaitlyn Clark to the ground, and now all of
a sudden, you're like a cool name in the WNBA while.
Speaker 1 (19:56):
They're looking for players.
Speaker 2 (19:57):
Because the average person you ask, the average dude named
w n B A players go, they'd stop at four
or five. They'd say Kitlyn Clark, Angel reesge Becker's.
Speaker 1 (20:11):
Yeah, is she still playing? No, but that's who they
would mentioned that they would have. That would be in
the five something Lobo who is Bobo?
Speaker 4 (20:18):
Cameron Brink yeahs a broadcast she doesn't playing?
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Got rested in Russia? Uh, Brittany Grinder.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
Brittany Grinder like you, you you'd be Kelsey Plum, Kelsey Plum.
Speaker 4 (20:30):
Sabrina and Esco said, the three Stewart start.
Speaker 1 (20:33):
So, but but I think we're that now we're at
the limit, and that's about you. We're Angel Wilson. Okay,
we're doing all right.
Speaker 5 (20:46):
Did anyone say the legendary supe bird super super simplify
the question?
Speaker 1 (20:55):
Good one stupid? That's where he chimes it.
Speaker 2 (20:58):
Found everybody else eight seven seven ninety nine? Oh fox,
all right, let me we could simplify this really easy.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
Ready.
Speaker 2 (21:06):
Sophie Cunningham talks about the Fever struggles and she says,
we're circled on everyone's schedule. No one likes us because
they're seven and eight right now. I guess you could
really simplify it by asking why are the Fever really really?
Why are the Fever circled on everyone's schedule? And why
doesn't anyone really like them? Because it's gonna be the
(21:27):
the most eyes on them. It's a litmus test to
play against Caitlyn Clark.
Speaker 1 (21:32):
What's the reason?
Speaker 2 (21:33):
And they they've they probably secretly just don't like her. Listen,
and they're jealous a little.
Speaker 3 (21:39):
They are.
Speaker 1 (21:39):
Good.
Speaker 7 (21:40):
Let me just I think Kaitlyn Clark's now miss this
is either four or five games she's missed.
Speaker 1 (21:43):
They're not that good right now, right, Yeah, that's what
I'm saying. But they did.
Speaker 7 (21:45):
They went on the road and they beat the Seattle
Storm without Kaitlyn Clark having a good game. They still
won because Eliah Boston was great. They can win without her.
But they've already beaten the Liberty. They were the first
take the Liberty down. When they're undefeated, they've They've had
some other great wins when they're at their healthiest, at
their best, they are one of the better teams a
UNBA hands down.
Speaker 2 (22:01):
This conversation in itself is proof of what this woman
has done for the league.
Speaker 1 (22:07):
I don't think.
Speaker 7 (22:08):
Remember last summer, You're like, oh, this will taper off,
Like I'm not. I don't expect this to last until September,
you know, Yeah, I do. Into late summer.
Speaker 2 (22:15):
We're trying to get to the bottom of something. But
more than one thing can be true, right I'm sure
a lot of people don't like her because they're jealous
and they just don't like the attention she gets. But
at the same time, you circle that game on the
schedule because you know you have to bring your a
game because there's more eyes on that game than any
other game. Hey, kov, if you're a young player in
the major leagues, right, when do you like to see
how you fare against scooble or maybe schemes or like
(22:37):
that's your test of like, all right, how how do
I perform against the best pictures in the game. I
think a lot of these young female you know WNBA
players are saying, all right, let's see how I fare
against Caitlyn Clark, the famous eye rollie.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
Everyone loves her Kaitlin Clark.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
So you're right, there's a little bit of hate and
there's a little bit of a I like I said,
a little bit, how am I? You want to be
the player in life, the player on the court, the
boxer in the ring with the target on your back,
Because if you're that person, that just means you're the champ.
That means you're the best. That means you're the one
that everybody's going after and to be the man you
got to beat the man who said that Rick Flair. Yeah,
but it's true in life, you know, if you're really
(23:15):
the one with the target on your back, it's because
you're the best one out there.
Speaker 1 (23:19):
So that's who you really want to be.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
So all the props in the world to the Fever
and Caitlin Clark because whether you like it or not,
they're the ones they're trying to beat your thoughts. I
see the phones are hot. Let's go eight seven to seven,
nine to nine on Fox. We got more Covino and Rich.
More Friday action packed fun here on Fox Sports Radio,
(23:43):
going back to the phones, getting you involved like we
always do, the most inclusive show on radio, Covino and
Rich the world famous cn R on FSR. Danny g
Super producing eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. If
you want to chime in, or at Covino and Rich
at Fox Sports Radio. On social media, thanks to all
who partied with us in Vegas. People still adding pictures
(24:04):
and posting pictures. We appreciate it, so you can check
ours out at Covino and Rich mancy Man she was
partying in Vegas pool side, bringing the party. She's great,
She's bringing the updates. In about ten minutes, we got
Iowa Sam on the ones and twos and again let's
(24:25):
get back to the phones and the conversation. Sophie Cunningham
of the Indiana Fever basically said that nobody likes them
in the league and they're circled on everybody's schedule. I
guess the core of the question is, well, why why
doesn't anyone really like them?
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Why are they.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Circled Yo, to quote your favorite nineties pop rock band,
the Jim Blossoms, not mine, yours, baby, Hey, jealousy.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
That's a lot of it, all jealousy.
Speaker 2 (24:52):
And during the break I was Sam and I had
a better conversation than we did on the air.
Speaker 1 (24:56):
I know you love that. I hate that, but it's true.
You can't get me. Here's the thing. Everybody has a
different path.
Speaker 2 (25:03):
You can't get mad because someone brought attention to something
you were working hard at all along.
Speaker 1 (25:09):
You really can't. Some WNBA player can't be mad that what.
Speaker 2 (25:12):
Now we're popular because of Kaitlyn Clark. Yeah, no one cared.
I'm sorry to tell you now they do. You should
be grateful for Kaitlyn Clark, the attention angel Reesprings, the
attention that you know Paige Becker's that is what you
desire and love. Comino and I worked at Serious XM
for a good fifteen years. Right to say we weren't
(25:35):
thankful when Howard Stern signed on. He brought attention to
a network that we were on that was trying to
gain some steam.
Speaker 5 (25:43):
He brought how many followers to the subscribers.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Right we started there there were hundreds of thousands of
people to tens of millions. I think it went from
three hundred thousand subscribers to three million, Like overnight is crazy? Yeah, overnight,
and now now you know over thirty almost forty million.
It It baffle me how anyone would be anything other
than just be like, you know, you might not like
it personally, but yeah, grateful for what her and some
of these young women brought, especially her the end.
Speaker 1 (26:08):
Hey, but I look at it this way too from
the flip side. Rich. Yeah, envy and all that jealousy.
But whatever lights your fire man, whatever gets you fired
up and motivated.
Speaker 2 (26:15):
Man, I agree with that you see that on the
court and you get a better product.
Speaker 1 (26:19):
It gets us talking. It gets a.
Speaker 2 (26:21):
Weeny thinking though to be like, but I was working
hard all long. Yeah, well guess what no one can
now they do, So embrace it.
Speaker 1 (26:29):
Embrace it. Let's go to the phones. You call it
hold on, You call it jealousy. I might call it
also frustration. I think people are frustrated because I.
Speaker 7 (26:36):
Was just looking at that they're moving games from their
smaller home venues to larger venues to accommodate the Caitlyn
clar and crap Kaitlyn Clark crowd, and those people are
probably like, well, they're coming into our place. They're gonna
come into our home arena. Oh, we're gonna teach them
a lesson.
Speaker 2 (26:49):
That would be like us getting mad that we're having
a big company dinner and I don't know, Colin said
he was coming, So now they change it to a
nicer restaurant.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
You'd be like, awesome, thank you, Colin.
Speaker 2 (27:01):
We were we were going to cheesecake Factory the minute
Coward said he's coming. Now we're going to you know,
del Friscoes.
Speaker 1 (27:06):
Come in.
Speaker 5 (27:07):
Yeah, but it would be him changing the restaurant for
a CRC for your home court.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
I get. I.
Speaker 2 (27:16):
Yeah's team to be. She's the team to be. And
that's really it. All right your calls, Now, let's get
you involved. We'll go to Kansas and DJ different, what's up?
Speaker 1 (27:26):
DJ?
Speaker 3 (27:28):
Hey, what's up you guys? Talk to you guys.
Speaker 6 (27:31):
Hey, I haven't talked to you guys along in a
long while.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
I like you guys, Andrew. But let me get right
to the point.
Speaker 2 (27:36):
Yeah man, Okay, Caitlin Clark if the ladies don't know
how to step up their game.
Speaker 3 (27:40):
To get past her, Okay.
Speaker 6 (27:42):
It's like Michael Jordan when he first came to league.
Speaker 3 (27:44):
Nobody liked him too.
Speaker 6 (27:46):
Something about when you guys said about.
Speaker 4 (27:49):
Something that you like to do.
Speaker 6 (27:51):
I'm like sixty or sixty one something and one of
those numbers. I like playing basketball, but I coached basketball.
Speaker 4 (27:57):
So I'll talk to a young ballplayers.
Speaker 1 (27:59):
Come up, be better than me and be better.
Speaker 5 (28:02):
Than you other ball players.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
Thank you, guys for the topic. I love you, guys.
I'm off the hook.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
He love you may different man. Thanks for the call.
Speaker 2 (28:09):
And by the way, that is an interesting thought too.
If you're one of those people that love to play sports,
and I question, well, why don't you play? If you coach,
that could fulfill that that passion. I just feel it's
interesting that. But we also also fulfills the passion talking
about it every day like we do fulfills the passion.
You think Brian Windhorst is out there hitting jumpers or
is at best? I don't think he ever was. But
(28:29):
that's the point. You're allowed to be a fan. Kaylee
in Fresnel.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
Hi, Kaylee, Hi, Hi.
Speaker 6 (28:39):
I'm so excited to talk to you guys. Honestly, I
listen to you every day. What a throw. I just
had two quick comments. One was I guess about Kaylen
Clark really quick. There's so few spots for women to
be praised in any any circuit that's dominated by men,
and it's just forced us into a competitive position. We
in situations where we are minute we support each other.
(29:01):
In situations where we're competing for attention or competing for
a spot, or competing for praise, then we have no
choice but to be unsupportive. And I think that goes
across the board. It's not a women thing, it's a
it's a people thing, and it just happens to be
more our thing.
Speaker 2 (29:16):
And you know what, agreed, I'm going I'm going to
give you the weakest analogy, but you'll agree. It's it's
like the Bachelor. You know, women will support each other
unless twenty five are fighting over the same dude.
Speaker 3 (29:24):
Right.
Speaker 1 (29:27):
Exactly. I mean it's no matter how awful that dude is. Yes,
what else you got, Kayley?
Speaker 6 (29:32):
And then just really quick, as a mother of a
son and a wife playing sports at any age right now,
they've kind of sucked all the sun out of it.
Unless you're really good, there isn't a space for you.
And even like my forty year old husband, who was
a baseball player and a football player and a wrestler,
wanted to join one of those little softball leagues and
(29:53):
he's like, gosh, I had fun playing softball, but I
don't want to spend all weekend with a bunch of
dudes who are trying to get away from their wives
and kids. And I feel like that's kind of the
environment that has been created in adult sports. It's like, well,
let's come out here and talk bad about our families
or complain about our lives. And it's really not about
guys who just want to play softball or just want
(30:13):
to play basketball with their buddies. I mean, I'm sure
it is like there's no no broadstrokes, and.
Speaker 2 (30:18):
There's a lot of dudes without not in all, but
without families and kids.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
They have a lot of time on their hands. I
mean it's a good mix of both. That is a
great call. Thank you, good point, Kaylee. Appreciate you, Kaylee.
Like I like some female callers, they always make more sense. Yeah,
you're always welcome.
Speaker 3 (30:34):
Isn't that the story of our lives.
Speaker 2 (30:36):
It's like they make sense on the phone, but on
the basketball court and I don't know, they're trying to
take down the one person that matters.
Speaker 1 (30:43):
And Kelsey Plumb doesn't want to sign autograph exactly.
Speaker 2 (30:45):
All right, well, Monzie, you want to make sense of
an update? What's what's doing in the world today.
Speaker 4 (30:50):
You know, it's funny that you brought up The Bachelor,
because what was it, like a week ago? We saw
all these fights in the w NBA, like multiple games,
and I like, you guys embarrassing me. It's like I
watch the slur because I enjoyed the drama in the
house with all the girls when the Bachelorette, all the
bros are freaking homies by the end of it.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
Different.
Speaker 1 (31:09):
It is so different. But that is the perfect example.
Speaker 4 (31:12):
I said that to Shae, who works your with us,
who was also parting it up in Vegas.
Speaker 1 (31:17):
All right, yeah, Kaylyn Clark, I think chased all hung
over from.
Speaker 4 (31:22):
He flew in Sunday and was here and I saw
him and I was like, I can't He's like I was.
I was with Covino four hours ago.
Speaker 7 (31:29):
He said he was at a black he was working,
and he's like, I was at a blackjack table four.
Speaker 1 (31:32):
Hours Not to call it our buddy, Shay. I know
you got your updates. But my wife was on the
same flight as him. Oh yeah, oh no, he told me,
and she Sarah found.
Speaker 2 (31:41):
They were boarding the plane and she said, Shay was
at the airport just sleeping upright, and she's like, you
gotta get on the plane.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
Yes, you told me to be at Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 3 (31:50):
I think it's yeah.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
He would have missed the flight if she didn't wake
him up. She He absolutely told me he's only Sarah
saved him. On Sunday, left in the luggage compartment. Fever
start Kayling Clark.
Speaker 4 (31:59):
Yeah, I missing her second game tonight with that left
growing injury. Unfortunately, it is the first matchup against Page
Beckers and the Wings, but there are more matchups later
in the season in the NBA.
Speaker 1 (32:09):
Well Ace Bailey, the.
Speaker 4 (32:10):
Fifth overall Pikey, plans to report to the Utah Jazz
on Saturday, ESPN with the story Masai U Jury is
out as vice chairman and president off their thirteen seasons
with the Toronto Raptors. They went thirty and fifty two
this past season, missed the postseason for the third straight year.
An autograph Michael Jordan rookie card sold for two point
five million dollars, the most ever.
Speaker 1 (32:30):
Paid for a Jordan rookie card.
Speaker 4 (32:32):
And in baseball, Mariners catcher Cal Raley leads the majors
in homers with thirty two. Said he's going to participate
in next month's Home Run Derby. No catcher has ever
won the Derby, which began in nineteen eighty five, and
apparently Elie de la Cruz of the Reds declined to participate.
Speaker 1 (32:48):
Already in the Home Run Derby. So right now it's
just cal Raley and Ronald Acunya Junior. Back to you guys.
I mean, I'm happy to hear that. And you know
about that. You know, my favorite meathead'll probably get involved
pedalaloons over, I hope.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
So.
Speaker 4 (32:59):
Also, I'm sure you saw Met's picture Griffin Cannon ruptured
his achilles.
Speaker 2 (33:03):
Yeah, that was that. He was a great addition to
the Mets. Like you got a perfect middle of the
rotation guy, and you know you hate you always say this,
people say, man, we have too many starting pictures and
you're like, no.
Speaker 1 (33:15):
No, solve itself. I promise absolutely, always something that goes down.
Thank you, Monci, thank you.
Speaker 2 (33:21):
And speaking of cal Raley, we're going to talk about
him in a few minutes and his big dumper and
his big dumper because he is participating in the home
run derby. Who does the honor go to? Let's say
it was you and the home run derby. Do you
pick a relative, a former coach, pitch friend. Well, for
cal Raley, it's his dad, So what would you do? Plus,
(33:45):
I also want to talk how close the MVP voting
would be if it was him and Judge right now.
Speaker 1 (33:49):
So we'll talk a little cal Raleigh.
Speaker 2 (33:51):
And we still got to get to Weekend Hobnobbing podcast reviews.
We have a lot to get to. We got more
Covino and Rich live from the Fox Sports Radio studio.
So we're playing some po d good choice there, say,
I'm feeling alive, getting ready for the weekend. Friday's here
(34:11):
fight Weekend Chavez Junior, Jake Paul, I'll tell you all
about it during Weekend Hobnobby.
Speaker 1 (34:17):
But I am feeling alive.
Speaker 2 (34:19):
He's playing pod Payable on Death, the band from San
Diego representing the big SD oh San Diego, and last
night I was trying to pick the hardcore four I
named it of that era of music.
Speaker 1 (34:32):
Do you want to hear who they are? Real quick?
Speaker 2 (34:35):
The hardcore four of like nineties two thousand's rock. Well,
it sounded cooler than Mount Rushmore. Right, the hardcore four,
I like it. Let's hear that up. Did you put
pod on there?
Speaker 1 (34:44):
No? I did not, but I do like them. I
respect him.
Speaker 2 (34:46):
Wilson James, No, that's Lithium Erica's desk run gerrow RK.
So I'm talking to Nigary Divorce Dad Rocks Shindown Nope,
but a lot of people chimed in with Shinedown because
they're a legitimate band. So I'll give you my four
at least try to guess a little bit System of
a Down absolutely in it yep during the Mount Rushmore all.
Speaker 1 (35:05):
Right, of that era.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
Guys of this era, like late nineties, early two thousand,
Corn Corn absolutely yep, System Corn two more System.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
Any any guesses Danny I was saying System of Down.
Speaker 7 (35:18):
I actually saw Coven's tweets, so I don't want to
give it away.
Speaker 2 (35:21):
I'll follow Oh yeah, he's busy. I'm busy playing soft
softball with I get Guzlin buddies. So let's hear the
other two. Lincoln Park because there was a lot of
there's a lot of rock, but they did it the
best right And I said, it's gotta be Metallica.
Speaker 1 (35:36):
But Metallica is their own mountain. They're their own mountain.
Speaker 2 (35:39):
They transcend generation some throwing limp biscuit in there for
what they meant for what they meant for that era,
but it's debatable, that's just fun, but previous generations. It's
easier to pick the Core four, the mount rushmore that era.
It's a little more difficult. When you mentioned Lincoln Park,
I you could argue they are very rated.
Speaker 1 (35:58):
I still feel like they are underrated songs.
Speaker 2 (36:00):
They're like crossover to the mainstream rock pop everything. I
think the song this is a bold statement. I think
the song in the end by Lincoln Park, Oh could
be a top It could be a top three song
of that decade.
Speaker 1 (36:14):
Great party trick too, because you walk by any piano,
you just hit the.
Speaker 2 (36:17):
Ding dinging, and then women are like, oh my god,
you play you didn't know and then you walk away.
Speaker 5 (36:24):
Like all like Oh, and isn't that the one they
remixed with jay Z Yeah? Oh okay, the last one,
I'm thinking Red Yankee Hat.
Speaker 1 (36:33):
The Bisiness, Yeah, yeah, that was my one.
Speaker 2 (36:35):
That was my one because Metallic is too massive and
I'm not sure they're they're defining of that era and they've.
Speaker 1 (36:41):
Been around for twenty years already, so but.
Speaker 2 (36:43):
We do play them, and I'll be talking more about
it on Turbo tonight, that series six on Turbo forty one.
But the place to be is Fox Sports Radio right here.
If you're on the iHeartRadio app, thank you. If you're
listening to the podcast in the future, thank you. And
that brings us to the tire Rack play.
Speaker 3 (36:58):
Of the Day.
Speaker 2 (37:00):
It's the team with the best record in baseball right now.
The three two pitch swinging to ground ball to second base,
sliding backhand istop by Torres gets up toos Tigers win.
Speaker 1 (37:10):
Tigers win.
Speaker 2 (37:11):
That's courtesy of Tiger's radio network, and that's our tirect
player of the day. For forty years, our friends to
ti iraq Ye have been finding the right tires for how,
what and where they drive. Ship fast and free back
by free road hazard protection with convenient insulation options like
mobile tire Insallation, Tiraq dot Com, the way tire buying
should be.
Speaker 1 (37:31):
And by the way, the.
Speaker 2 (37:31):
Tigers when they're good, it's really fun for that Al Central.
Speaker 1 (37:37):
You know, we forget that they Troy is popping right now.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
After Sports Teams, there was a moment where we talked
about how the Texas Rangers got close a couple of times.
You know, they won a couple of years ago, but mameybe,
they lost a few World Series. You could say the
same about the Tigers, that the Verlander years and all
that they got close and lost a few World Series
and you know, never never got over that hump. So hey,
maybe this year they're your biggest a competition there. Yankees boy, well,
(38:02):
speaking of baseball, Yankees boy, here to remind you that
Aaron Judge is still the guy. Okay, cal Rawly's doing
great things. There's a two part dousy right here. Cal
rally announced he's in the home run derby first and
first mostly, I want to give him prompts because a
lot of people shy away from it. Could mess your
swing up. Some people believe in that happened to Bobby Abray.
You famously, people remember he was never the same after that, Right,
(38:26):
because you're hacking, you get tired.
Speaker 3 (38:27):
You It's happened to a few players.
Speaker 2 (38:29):
It's happened to a few players. So I give him
all the props in the world. He's having a career season.
We've never seen anything like that for this position, right,
breaking all sorts of catcher records. And he announced that
his dad is pitching to him, Like, what an honor.
We've seen it before, Robbie Cano and a few other players.
What an honor for him and his dad who was
throwing him backyard whiffleballs, probably his whole life. So the
(38:51):
first question is who would you choose? Like, who do
you give that honor to? A former coach? If it
was me, do I reach out to my former j
av coach, mister Hamburg because my varsity coach passed away unfortunately,
But shout out to mister Seplinski, an old college pal,
a high school friend. You're whiffle ball buddy. You might
(39:12):
have to call the kid you loged the most hours
of playing with. Like, if you have that neighborhood kid
that right that you played home run derby with and whiffleball,
that might be his shining moment a.
Speaker 1 (39:21):
Thrill, right, like Steve made it, you know, like, or
does my dad get on the mountain? Hey, I don't know.
Speaker 2 (39:26):
My arm's hurting a little bit. I wouldn't want to
put that sort of pressure on my dad. Hey choke up,
but again that's my dad.
Speaker 1 (39:32):
Yeah, I don't know. I haven't thrown a ball in
about thirty five years old. Now hit the green, yeah,
night between Yeah, here you go.
Speaker 2 (39:39):
All right, right, my dad pulls something in the moment,
So who would you give that honor to? And then
we got to talk MVP man because that's the big talk.
Right now, we got more Cavino and Rich next
