Yo, what's going on, buddies? Good morning. I'll tell you
what's going on.
Speaker 3 (00:10):
You and I right now, for the third day in
a row, in for DP here to complete the Dan
Patrick Hatrick Covino and Rich live the Mercedes Benz Studios

At Maco, We're bring your car back to life with
affordable paint jobs and light collision repairs. Get a free
(00:31):
estimate today. Uh oh, better get Maco. I'm Steve Cavino.
That is Rich Davis. He's the guy that dragged me
out last night on a random Tuesday night, and I'm
regretting it. Now.
Speaker 2 (00:44):
Come on.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
I'm like, oh yeah, because my schedules are thrown off.
Speaker 2 (00:48):
True, so.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
My morning routine is a little off, right, So now
I got the what do people say, the bubble guts? Yeah,
I'm like, oh, no, studio with here for the next
three hours. Well, yeah, because Rich and I we had
a friend in town last night. Friends in town wants
to say hello, So we go out, we overindulge in
(01:13):
food and drink and I wake up like.
Speaker 2 (01:19):
And then we have to wake right up early in
the morning, go to Dan Patrick.
Speaker 3 (01:22):
I don't have any bathroom time to unwind my schedules.
A little off I'm saying is that there's two things
that come to mind.
Speaker 2 (01:36):
What a friends in town? Yeah, I don't want to
go out.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
If you don't make the time to see them, the
argument could be made they're not your friend. It's true.
I'm glad I went out. That's the feeling you have
when you get older. It's like you don't want to,
but then you're glad you did. Man, I don't want
to go out random weeknight, but I'm glad I did.
Once you're there, once you're in the moment, and then
(01:59):
you really I just slobbed out for no reason. Rich
and I had full on meal. What do you have
for dinner? Hold on, you had cheesecake? Yeah, a full
on slab. It wasn't even a slice, big giant slab
of cheesecake. So of course I'm going to wake up
and feel like I hate you. I hate you because
(02:19):
you made me do that. I didn't want to do
that last night.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Anyway.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
I'm always fascinated what you must eat when you're not
with other people. Because you had like a chicken entree
and a cheesecake. I cut it back so today again
because my schedule's off, because this isn't our normal routine.
I'm like, oh, but again, I don't want to be
the complaino and bitch show. It's Cavino en rich In
for dpe study of that.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
I'm like, oh, the third day of the Hatter is
always the toughest. Yeah, having a rough rail.
Speaker 3 (02:48):
Anyway, I'm here, rich Danny G's on the phones eight
seven seven ninety nine on the Fox, on the Fox,
the Fox, The Fox changed it on the Go eight

the ones of Tuesday. No, it's not who is it
that is?
Speaker 2 (03:04):
Mary? Oh hey Mary?
Speaker 4 (03:06):
Black people don't look like right, No, like you were
just kid. Come on, you didn't even look over. First
of all, I told you it's a rough morning. Second
of all, I don't have my glasses on. Third of all,
you think I can see what the reflection in my face?
I can't see anything.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
I was setting off on a bad note.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Ia Sam's here. Wait, No, that's not what I mean.
You know, I thought it was strange. I was hearing
all these fart effects, you know, because Marcus sort of
quiet and Mary's bringing it already. There you go, Mary, Mary,
why you bugging? She is on the on the phones,
hanging out. But we have lots to get to today.
Every Wednesday on our show two to four on the West,
five to seven on the East, we do something called
(03:43):
mid Week Major, the biggest stories in the world, the
sports and pop culture. Danny G's gonna break it down.
He's gonna give us the headlines and we'll decide me
and you and the Fox Sports Radio Nation.
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Are these stories mid week or major? We do it
every Wednesday. This guy's throwing off had she Cake thinks
Mary's Mark. Dude, shut up, I'll tell you why.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
And I say that that's I can't see what you
see Mary.
Speaker 2 (04:10):
He's so big time. He didn't even look in your death,
so disrespectful of me.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
No, no, don't do that. Don't do that. I really
can't see. I got bright lights in my face and
reflections on your window.
Speaker 5 (04:22):
I can't.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
I could barely see. That doesn't even eat. That's what coop.
Speaker 3 (04:31):
Anyway, Thank you guys that would be in here. Thank
you for putting up with us the same way people
are the same way. I'm saying, who the hell is
that people are saying that about us?
Speaker 2 (04:40):
Again? Cadino and rich In for Dan Patrick.
Speaker 3 (04:42):
Now, lots of NFL today, Uh, there there's a there's
a story about Floyd Mayweather Junior, a baseball hypothetic goal.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Of course, some NFL, NBA.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
But I want to start out by talking about something
people witness last night, not you eating cheesecake and having
ottery gres about having dinner.
Speaker 2 (05:01):
It's not I regret, Like, why do you want to go?
I don't wanna. I don't want to say it's because
you get older. I'm in denial of that. That's not it.
Speaker 3 (05:11):
I just I like to chill on a Tuesday night.
I don't want to go out. I'm not twenty years
old anymore. I didn't want to do it. Then, that's
my point. So I don't want to go out on
a Tuesday night and eat like a slob for no reason.
You said a slope and I did.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
I way.
Speaker 3 (05:26):
I want to drop it. But you had a chicken
entree off the quote skinny menu. Yeah, but it was
too much and I didn't need all that cheesecake. I
didn't need a cocktail. I didn't need all that stuff
on a Tuesday night, enjoyed life a little you not
some slot, and you wake up at five am, you're like, uh,
I should have sat home and ate a protein bar.
Is that?
Speaker 6 (05:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (05:46):
Should should have played it right and realized I had
to work early in the morning and told your friend respectfully, Hey, dude,
I'm glad you're in town, but I'm busy working.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Have fun. That's kind of happen. But here's the thing.
Speaker 3 (05:59):
If if you go to a city or someone comes
to your city and you don't even make time to
get a quick dinner, it's a callicular work week for
that person a drink. If you don't do one of
those things, then when are you ever.
Speaker 2 (06:12):
Going to see them? And that goes for anyone.
Speaker 3 (06:14):
If if some old coworker or a pal, a college bro,
if someone comes to town and says, hey, I'm in
your city for a couple of days a weekend.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
Maybe I don't know. I don't know, but I did it.
I'm glad I did. But again I'm sharing my uh well,
the reason why he smells in here? How about that?
There you go? Moving on? All right? Last night, Well,
you were regrettably eating cheesecake.
Speaker 3 (06:33):
People witnessed maybe the greatest baseball player of the last
one hundred years since the Babe Don Mattingly No who
show Hey Otani. There's video and pictures of him trying
to parallel park in Los Angeles, and the headline says,
(06:54):
show Hey Otani, parallel parking. Show is hard. That show Hey,
the guy can't parallel park. The guy goes fifty to fifty.
But in the picture. I don't know if that's a
joke or what it's like really bad. Yeah, I saw
the article. It's like he's not even close, not even
clothes at all, which is amazing to me because you think, Wow,
(07:17):
the guy who could apparently do everything can't do that.
He's so coordinated that he could pitch and bat like
no one we've ever seen, like the Babe, but he
can't parallel park.
Speaker 2 (07:30):
What is that about?
Speaker 3 (07:31):
Well, the world has finally found out something show Hey
Otani can't do, and that's parallel park. There's a video
on TMZ Sport showing the Dodger Superstar not quite being
able to get his Porsche must be Nice into a
tight parking spot and he's doing that thing where you're
(07:52):
going back and forth twenty times into the parallel parking spot.
That's embarrassing, dude, And most cars nowadays, I'm guessing.
Speaker 2 (07:58):
This a newer Porsche A show.
Speaker 3 (08:00):
Yeah, but for a superstar like that's an embarrassing moment.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
It really is.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
But I look at it as not only that because
he's a superstar, but it's so parallel parking isn't tricky
to begin with for most, but nowadays with all the
cameras and a car like that probably parks itself, you
would think.
Speaker 2 (08:21):
Right with all the money he has, think of.
Speaker 3 (08:24):
When you back up all of a sudden boop, your
camera goes on. It shows you the trajectory of your wheels, Like,
there's no excuse to not parallel park effectively in twenty
twenty five. And that is the story Morning Glory Show.
Hey Atani. I think of a few things though when
I hear the story. It's cool that baseball's coming back
(08:44):
because we need it, we really do. The NBA has
to bring the heat. I heard Rob Parker going off.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
It's unbelievable. This is their chance, this was their night.
Nothing's going on.
Speaker 1 (08:58):
You gotta win over the fan and you lay an egg.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
I don't know, he's eighty said something randomly some crazy. Yeah, yeah,
it's dude, and he's right about that. Like football's over.
You want something, right, you watched enough Cobra Kai. You're
all cut up on your shows. Football's done. You're like,
all right, basketball entertain me. Oh you're not going to
You'll catch his huge thirtieth birthday party below out tonight.
Speaker 2 (09:24):
I do not the party and the one night where
the stars are out. The All Star.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
Game comes and it's a dud, and you're like, well
kind of stinks. Well then all right, well where's baseball?
So pitchers and catchers come? You're like, all right, well,
starting spring training begins? All right, all right, Harris coming.
You see a lot of your favorite players in there.
You're starting to see your favorite players, your your new
players show up in their and their snappy new spring
(09:51):
training uniforms, and seeing the pictures, you're seeing them taking
some hacks, some swing, some cuts.
Speaker 2 (09:56):
I'm seeing Cody Bounger hit some bombs.
Speaker 3 (09:59):
I'm seeing Old Schmidt all shaving, Devin Williams with no beard,
and you know you're seeing show Hail Tani throwing. You're like,
oh man, what a season is brewing? Something's brewing. The
Dodgers with their eight man rotation. Yeah, the Dodgers or
everybody's coming in. It's that time of year Baseball's we
have thoughts on baseball. We're gonna get to later, but
(10:21):
as you see your players. But dude, that's the I'm
trying to paint a picture here. We're more excited about
seeing show hal Tani throw warm ups. When's the last
time you were this excited about baseball?
Speaker 2 (10:32):
Is my question. It's because of the postseason last year.
Speaker 3 (10:35):
The postseason was so exciting that it got us this
fired up this year with.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
All the moves made and all.
Speaker 3 (10:40):
The money moves that, honestly, I feel bad saying is
you're not really caring about basketball that much. You're like
thinking about baseball and we're a whiles away. Still, I'm
more intrigued to watch Sho hal Tani parallel parked in
the fourth quarter of a close NBA.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
Yeah, that's that's the real story. How dare you?
Speaker 3 (10:59):
I mean, have you seen him trying to parallel park?
It's pretty funny, but it's really bad. I before I
have more thoughts on this Otani parking thing. I saw
at spring training. They had all the Mets as they
were walking into the clubhouse, like, guess.
Speaker 2 (11:15):
How many like jelly beans are in the jar? Are
you good at that type of thing?
Speaker 3 (11:20):
Because when I tell you, some guys like two hundred,
other guys like five thousand, Like, how can you be
so off if I gave you like a if you're
at the mall and it's like, hey, win something, Guess
how many gum drops.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Are in this thing? I can't say that I've ever
won anything like that, but my daughter did twice. What
is your perception that off? All?
Speaker 3 (11:39):
Right? Honestly, how would I know? I never want I
never guessed what everything? I never want, So I don't know.
As Otani's try to parallel parallel park, it did get
us thinking even the greatest people in the world that
dominate the world of music, sports, the most coordinated science,
and the Neil de grasse Tysons of the world, like,
(11:59):
I'm sure you think this has something to do with
the fact that he's so pampered that he normally doesn't
drive himself.
Speaker 1 (12:06):
I mean that, yeah, that could very well. He mostly
had a driver his entire career and a bookie.
Speaker 3 (12:12):
I mean, I'm not and friends and no, but oh, Tony,
I'm guessing that's probably the story, Danny. But for every
great man or woman out there, they have a weakness.
No one's perfect, did you like to say, except Kurt
Heading mister perfect and he died. He was perfect, stir perfect.
That guy could throw a pass and catch it in
the end zone. He would throw touchdowns to himself. He
(12:34):
uh only three hundreds, Yeah, he would both three hundreds.
He would hit every every shot, he took every bulls
eye on a dartboard.
Speaker 1 (12:41):
Yeah, that guy was awesome. Not so perfect he couldn't
even stay alive.
Speaker 3 (12:45):
Do you remember, Danny, Do you remember those promos in
the nineties for wrestling where mister Perfect did every sport
and he was perfect for he had a perfect mullet too,
I mean, and he was pals with Wade Bogs cancer free.
This week Wax rang the bell says he's cancer free.
Speaker 2 (13:05):
Happy to hear that legend, Wade Box.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
So for everyone that again, unless you were mister Perfect
in his prime, everyone has a weakness, show Hao Tani.
A generational guy can't parallel park. So we ask you
Fox Sports ready, it is nice when your wife yells
at you for doing something stupid, or she yells at
you because you can't do x Y or Z. Well,
(13:30):
you know show Hao Tani can't parallel park, all right,
He's one of the greats. He can't parallel park. That
is embarrassing. Dude, What simple thing can't you do? Where's
that old commercial set? Even these simple things?
Speaker 2 (13:46):
Think out the voice box? Yes, of course, what simple thing?
Nothing will ever be the same again, what simple thing
can't you do?
Speaker 3 (13:55):
Now?
Speaker 2 (13:55):
Even the simple things?
Speaker 3 (13:56):
Seven seven, nine to nine on Fox? You made me
a success old businessman or woman. You might be a
superstar athlete, or a celebrity that acts and makes millions
of dollars, or a genius like Neil deGrasse Tyson or
Michi Okaku. But everyone has a flaw. No one's perfect.
So what is it that you struggle with?
Speaker 2 (14:17):
Then?
Speaker 3 (14:17):
I'm wondering if it ends here with Shoheyo Tani. Is
he so inept because he's so pampered and he has
so much money? Maybe he can't even make an egg?
Who knows what this guy can't do. Maybe he's such
a baseball robot. He do anything on the diamond, but
anything at home? Are you starting with your weakness? What's
my weakness? I can't cook? Yeah, I remember Cavino, Danny
(14:37):
G has a teenage daughter. When your daughter was maybe
like ten years old, he called me all excited, ones like, yo,
get this, bro, I made her a scrambled egg. I'm like,
are you kidding me? He's like, bro, for real, like
I did it. I'm like he was excited that he
figured out how to scramble an egg.
Speaker 2 (14:55):
Yeah, but I come from a long line of like sexist.
Speaker 3 (15:00):
Then, I guess I don't know, because no men in
my family ever cooked. I never saw men cooked. The
only time I saw my dad cook is like when
the rare moment mom was gone, mom was out, or
she worked late, and Dad would make you some stakums
back in the eighties.
Speaker 2 (15:13):
Hey will you want some steakhums? My dad never made
me anything. Ever, he would go and buy me, Hey
will you want tailor ham sandwich?
Speaker 3 (15:20):
He'd buy me something. So I never saw dude's cook.
No one ever taught me how to cook. It was
always grandma cooking, doing the dishes. Mom cooking, never my grandma.
I never saw my grandma eat. She was always cooking
and washing dishes. So me, as a kid, I wasn't
taught how to cook. I never learned so when I
(15:42):
had a kid, I was forced to learn. But I
am by no means chef Boyard.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
I can't. I still can't cook.
Speaker 3 (15:50):
You are not going to flavor table with GUYFIEDI no,
but I wouldn't consider my So what I would do
is probably go out a lot. If I didn't have
a girlfriend that cooked a lot. Yeah, so I'd be
out all the time. But the basics I just learned
within the past fifteen years when my kid was born.
In fact, one of our favorite show photos over the
(16:11):
last decade is when Covino tried to grill on like
a holiday and it was the most meager looking like
chicken and veggies on a grilla. But I could grill though. Yeah,
I don't think that's cooking. But you cook everything well
done that well, that's just how I like it. But
you like he doesn't have any skills. I really think
it's that odd for a guy to not know how
(16:33):
to cook. Y act like you're yeah, Bobby Flay or something.
I think it is odd that do you brag about
scrambling an egg like you want to know how to Yeah,
but would you.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
Make a whole mon? I've known you for twenty years
I've never seen you cooked lee squat.
Speaker 3 (16:45):
Just because you grill some stuff in your big green
egg that you brag about doesn't mean you're Gordon Ramsey
who hasn't cooked anything. I think you've just named more
chefs in the last five minutes than meals you've cooked
in your life.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Yeah, well fill me in, guy, FIEDI are you cooking?
I could cook anything? Oh?
Speaker 3 (17:02):
I see you do is eating everybody else's food. All
I know how to cook. I'll tell you what I
can't do. I've never seen you. I'll tell you what
I can do. How are you going to prove it?
I cook every time people call me?
Speaker 2 (17:11):
Can you cook?
Speaker 3 (17:12):
Anytime people come over my house for a party, I'm
cooking on the grill or I'm making things in the
kitchen with my wife.
Speaker 2 (17:16):
I could cook.
Speaker 1 (17:17):
Nah, I'm not a good cook, but I can take
leftovers and repurpose them into a masterpiece elements.
Speaker 2 (17:25):
I think you're gonna say you can put him in
the microwaf. No. I can do that too, though, Danny.
Speaker 3 (17:29):
I think, yeah, I'm left over gow Let it go, guys,
all right, I'll tell you what I can't do, and
I want to hear from everyone at eight, seven, seven,
nine to nine on Fox.
Speaker 2 (17:38):
You can't cook. But I don't think I'm alone on that,
well probably not.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
I'llah show he Otani, who is one of the greatest
athletes of a generation. The guy can't parallel park. What
sample thing can you not do? I'll give you one
that way, I'll take the heat off of you, because
I get it. Not everyone could cook. I can't do
anything administrative. I freeze up. I'm coaching my kids little
(18:06):
league team, and because when you're the manager, the coach
of the team, you have to do some of the
administrative nonsense. And someone's like, hey, I need you to
put all your kids info and their sizes and jersey
numbers and you know, their orders and all this nonsense
into an Excel sheet and email back to me. And
I was like, I'm sorry, what sounds you know?
Speaker 2 (18:28):
My job is.
Speaker 3 (18:28):
Oh, that's twenty years since I got out of college
till now, I've been on the radio, television or podcasting.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
I don't it's embarrassing.
Speaker 1 (18:36):
Yeah, you need an administrative assistant. I've helped you with
emails and things printed and Danny, can you print this
for me so I can totally see this.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
But look, you've always been the talent.
Speaker 1 (18:49):
You haven't been, you know, a producer or an assistant
in an office or even a studio.
Speaker 2 (18:55):
It's been an Excel sheet.
Speaker 3 (18:56):
This sounds like a like a lot for a bunch
of nose picking kids their T shirt signs.
Speaker 2 (19:01):
But people know that's considered a basic skill. Now, well,
you know, I add this to my list too. It's
a basic skill.
Speaker 3 (19:07):
Yesterday, to open up a microphotosoft Excel I don't even
know where to start.
Speaker 2 (19:11):
A simple Excel spreads. You can't do that.
Speaker 3 (19:13):
That's here just dumbling a lot of things, so Danny,
so that my weakness is the administrative stuff. Yesterday, Cavino
forgets that a lot of people listening and friends of ours,
that's their day to day corporate world. Like we had
to do an iHeart Fox Sports Radio big sales meeting
yesterday and it was on teams, and Covino's like, who
uses this team stuff?
Speaker 2 (19:32):
And I'm like, I don't know.
Speaker 3 (19:33):
Probably ninety percent of the people listening right now spend
their day on stupid teams or zoom calls. Right, that's
just the world people living now. Oh you're on a
team's call. All that stuff as Cavino would say, I'm allergic.
Guy said, uses this team not at all? You said,
not many? I said, a lot of our listeners are
on the road. Not everybody's on teams all the time.
(19:54):
There's a lot of listeners.
Speaker 2 (19:55):
On the road. Who uses this team stuff? That's my impression.
Speaker 3 (19:58):
We probably use it just as much as anyone else
out there. We're on a team's call a few times
a week, if every couple of weeks, you know, we're
on it. So it's administrative stuff. Yeah, it gives me
the uh, it gives me the nervous farts. I don't
like doing this either. So what is it that you
(20:21):
can't do the simple task? Oh, Tani camp parallel park?
What can't you do? We'll take your feedback next Covino
and rich In for the great Dan Patrick. We got
all your feedback and phone calls and texts and tweets

Bud eight seven seven ninety nine one Fox and Mary
Mary Mack on the ones and twos. Thank you guys
for hanging out with us against Steve Covino and Rich Davis.
We'll talk Floyd Mayweather. What's he doing in the NFL.
We'll do something called Midweek Major. The biggest stories in
sports and pop culture are they mid Week Major? We
(22:40):
do it every Wednesday on our show, which we hope
you follow. After three days of Dan Patrick, search Covino
and Rich wherever you stream your podcast. Yeah, I was
gonna say, we've hung out a couple of days. Now
do we get a rose? Do we?
Speaker 2 (22:51):
Uh? Are we getting kicked out of the pods?
Speaker 3 (22:55):
When I got back last night from eating like a
slob with you. I was trying to catch up on
The Bacher and I fell asleep.
Speaker 2 (23:04):
That was it.
Speaker 3 (23:04):
That was That was my night, And here I am.
Isn't any good Dad Patrick does off your schedule. If
you're not used to getting up this early, it just
throws you off.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
So I was out. I fell asleep. Is the Bacher good?
Speaker 3 (23:16):
I don't know, but that's like the pathetic part of again,
when there's no good sports on, you're like, I guess
I'll watch The Bachelor, all right, put it on.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
I was out.
Speaker 3 (23:25):
So if you're trying to fall asleep instead of taking
like melatonin or or edibles like you do all the time,
Bachelor usually does the trick.
Speaker 2 (23:34):
But you're right to sleep.
Speaker 3 (23:35):
Oh I could cut back on the edibles and just
watch bad reality TV.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
Yeah, yeah, it works, you know, The Bachelor to me
and any reality show, right, I was just tired.
Speaker 3 (23:44):
I can't get into that stuff unless, of course, there
are a plethora.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
I said a plethora, even less there's a plethora of
crazy hot women like I need them? Yeah, but why
did they have to be crazy?
Speaker 3 (24:00):
I need them to be crazy and I need them
to be hot, and I need them to be fighting
with each other. When the Bachelor is like civilized, whether
all like normal sweet girls boring.
Speaker 2 (24:09):
I need smoke shows that want to kill each other.
Speaker 1 (24:12):
Yeah, there are two women so far in this season
that keep going at it. They want each other's throats.
And one of them was the last to get the
rose on this past episode and the one that hates
her like cave her this mean mug as she was
walking up to get the final rose.
Speaker 3 (24:28):
H Well, you know what, we do have a five
hour flight later today to Philadelphia.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
Maybe o a little Bachelor, I don't know. Maybe I'll
watch White Lotus.
Speaker 3 (24:35):
But right now we are talking about Shoheo Tani for
one of the greats. It's kind of wild that he
can't parallel park. That's the story today, believe it or not.
That's the story. The cooler part of the story is,
you know the superstars are back at spring training now
right Baseball's right around the corner.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
So it gets you excited.
Speaker 3 (24:54):
And I get excited because when you're talking to your buddies,
I don't think we've been this excited in a long
time for baseball. So you're seeing a shift baseball baseball's bag.
I have a theory about it. And you know what,
I think you just overheard me, you know, annoyingly texting
my dumb baseball pals.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
This theories as to like, why are you excited about baseball?
Speaker 1 (25:18):
I saw you lift your arm up like this, so
I think Freddie Freeman did it for you.
Speaker 3 (25:22):
Fred it's my guy. It's the only Dodger I like
because he seems like a good fella. Let's go to
Chris and Montana. Let's wrap up this show. Hey thing
the simple things you can't do in life when you
see a guy like sho hal Tani who seems like
a non human at times, I can't parallel park as
sports car, like not even close, like he's the guy,
like you know, you know, not to sound chauvinistic, but
(25:47):
I will. There are times where my wife will get out.
I'll get out of the car. We'll do a switch through.
Like sometimes she'll just be driving because I'm like doing emails.
If we hit a situation where we need to parallel park,
she she freaks out sometimes and I'm.
Speaker 2 (26:01):
Like, quick, get out. I'll get in the driver's seat
and do it.
Speaker 3 (26:04):
Some people grew up not having to parallel park Maybe
they lived in a more rural area so it wasn't
a thing.
Speaker 2 (26:11):
We both grew up in the East Coast Caveno.
Speaker 3 (26:12):
So maybe you're a better parallel parker because you were
driving to Manhattan and Jersey and.
Speaker 2 (26:16):
So, like, that's something I could actually do. That show.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
Hey, can't you look at that? Does that make you
feel good? It does, Chris Montana, you're on a cavino
on wretch? What's up, Bud?
Speaker 7 (26:26):
Hey, guys, So I'm a child of the eighties, so
I should be manly to do this, but I don't
know jack about cars. I can't change the oil. I
can't change the tire, and I got fighting. You're like, hey,
check out the ROADI oscillator connected to the alternator. You
can push the transmission. I have no idea what they're
talking about, Dude, I don't think.
Speaker 3 (26:44):
I don't think most kids of the eighties and nineties.
Not only I don't know how to change my oil,
but you know what the crazier part is.
Speaker 1 (26:52):
You've would changed a tire before, Like if you if
you had to car, if I had to change a tire,
I'd be able to do it.
Speaker 3 (26:57):
But you know what, I also enjoyed Danny J picking
up my phone and calling roadside assistance. You think I'm
getting if if, if I got a flat tire. There's
a lot of guys. This is a big national show.
Good and you know the feedback we get when we
talk about this. They look at you like you're a
nept you know, the way you were talking about big sissy. Yeah,
(27:18):
you big sissy boy. You can't change your own earl,
can't change your own oil.
Speaker 2 (27:22):
I get it. Well, listen, yeah, look at those sissy hands.
Speaker 7 (27:25):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (27:25):
Never never had a grease under those nails.
Speaker 7 (27:27):
Yeh.
Speaker 3 (27:28):
He's talking about roadside assistance. To some people, sounds like
the most pampered thing ever. I have a question, if
you got if you got? Mary macis shaking her if
I got a flat tire? Knock on wood Mare. I'm
the one o one here in Los Angeles. You think
instead of calling someone, I should be on the side
of the road while cars are whipping nid with Jack
trying to change my time.
Speaker 2 (27:47):
But not on the side of the freeway.
Speaker 1 (27:48):
But if you know, like uh oh, my tires messed up,
and you get to like a gas station, you should
be able to go in the extra parking spot, the
gas station has jack that car, and you know, change
at least put your spare on.
Speaker 3 (28:02):
There is something to be able to about paying for convenience,
right like, I don't want it. I just don't want
to do any of these things. Am I capable of
following instructions? Of course? But do I want my car?
I have run flats, so I don't even think I
don't have a spare tire now that I'm thinking about it. Yeah,
you know if there's some like, no, I don't be
(28:25):
an old bag of douche right now? No, well, hold on,
you really do like a giant bag. Hold on, fifty
percent of cards. Look up the stats, bird brain. Fifty
percent of cars nowadays don't have a spare tire because
they have run flats, or they just don't come with
the spare The days of your trunk having the little
hatch where you got.
Speaker 2 (28:40):
The spare tire. That's the old timy times.
Speaker 3 (28:43):
I promise you look up the Statue'd be baffled and
boggled to realize that fifty percent of cars don't even
have a.
Speaker 2 (28:50):
Sounds so privileged right now?
Speaker 3 (28:51):
Yesno, good, yes, but you like, at least I'll admit it. Mary, Like,
for example, when the guy says, hey, you want me
to chane your filters out? I know I could do that,
but it's easier to be like, well, first you have
to say do I really need that?
Speaker 2 (29:07):
The other stat to look up.
Speaker 1 (29:08):
As we're worldwide on this network, not everybody has a
newer car, and we're talking about cars that might be
ten fifteen years old, and of course that's where you're
gonna have a tire.
Speaker 3 (29:18):
Prom trying to justify Notice how he's trying to throw
me under the busy cooking. I've never seen his guy
cook ever once. He's trying to justify his his who.
Speaker 2 (29:27):
Cooks every time the hammer Life House.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
When we grill a barbecue, grilling is not cooking, dude,
g meat on the grill is not cooking. Well, i've
never seen you using green I've never seen this guy
that is.
Speaker 2 (29:40):
There's a major difference here. You're not my wife, you're
my grill.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Who you Ray Lampy, the godfather of barbecue. I've never
seen you slather anything with barbecue sauce. I've never seen
you use any spices. I've never seen use ingredients to
cook anything on a grill is not cooking, that's grilling.
I'm a fantastic cook, okay, but I've never seen it
in over twenty years. And then the minute you call
(30:04):
him out on his pampered behavior, here he's justifying it
with his run flat. I don't know, maybe because I
just looked up the stat and it said ten percent
of new cars come with a full sized flat time. Okay,
not everybody have a new car in the US.
Speaker 2 (30:20):
Have new cars. I don't know of an eighty seventh central.
What do you have? There's a lot of people that
do you boso privilege? Yeah? The car do you drive?
What car do you drive? Married? You're how old?
Speaker 3 (30:32):
Is?
Speaker 2 (30:32):
Also? You're twenty twenty one? When I was twenty I
had a crappy old cartown. Yeah. No, so I have
a twenty fifteen.
Speaker 5 (30:37):
But I can change my oil and I can also
change a flat time.
Speaker 3 (30:40):
Why would you change your oil if you can go
to Jiffy Lube, the car dealership or something like that
and paid forty bucks?
Speaker 5 (30:44):
Do you want to pay I look when I was
in college, I don't want to pay a hundred and something.
Speaker 2 (30:48):
And I'm a girl. They're gonna try to up charge
me too.
Speaker 1 (30:50):
Just say Rich, I can't do all right, Rich Rich,
The average age of a car or a light truck
in the United States is twelve and a half years ago. Yeah,
instead of justifying that's the problem here, I'm not saying
I'm Mike and the mechanics and I'm the best at this,
Steven the mechanics. But I'm saying, you know, hey, I can't.
(31:14):
You're just justifying your crappy behavior and can parallel park show?
Speaker 2 (31:19):
Hey I can.
Speaker 3 (31:19):
You can tie this into sports too, Danny g Because
there's a certain point in life when you realize, like,
I don't think I could do this, and that's the reality,
and it hits you like dang. Like we talked to
Kurt Shilling recently, not the name drop, but he said,
let me look at your hands, and I said, these
little hamburger hands. Do you remember that? I said, my
(31:40):
little hamburger hands. He goes, yeah, He's like, because if
your hands weren't big enough, you were limited on how
much spin rotation you can get on your pitches. He
won't take giving those hands and immediately said, no matter
how good you would be at baseball, you're just never
gonna be great.
Speaker 2 (31:56):
You've got little hands. And I'm not going to debate
the guy. He's one of the rights.
Speaker 3 (32:01):
But there was a point in time when I was
pitching and I'm playing baseball, and I'm like, you know, Mike,
my curveball is.
Speaker 2 (32:08):
Just not snapping the way it should. You know, it's
just not Yeah, but did Chilling have twenty seven Little
league home runs?
Speaker 3 (32:14):
He didn't, and I and I have that on him,
and I feel great about fantastic. When it came to whiffleball,
I had some movement, but when it came to baseball, dude,
I could never what's the expression, pull the curve. All
the time, I was gonna say, pull the car never
pull the curtain the way and snap the y elbow
and pull.
Speaker 2 (32:30):
The curtain the way that he wanted me to.
Speaker 3 (32:32):
And you know, all I threw was a flat slider,
and you know, sure enough, everyone starts hitting bombs off
of you. And I realized I had to accept this,
that I just can't throw the curve the way I'm
supposed to. That's a lot of came That's my story. Yeah, everyone,
you know, I'm here the same and I here to justify. Yeah,
I got little hamburger hands, but I couldn't throw the curveball.
Speaker 1 (32:51):
Dude, I have one, which I'm sure all of you
can do, and I'm just lost with it.
Speaker 2 (32:57):
The new like.
Speaker 1 (32:59):
Digital style, a washing machine, I still can't figure this
thing out. Now a garage. I have to lean on
my better half for a laundry. Yeah, Like if it
was up to me to do the laundry in the house,
our household would be screwed. That's great, Like the old
school simple washing machine.
Speaker 2 (33:16):
I could figure that out.
Speaker 1 (33:17):
But all these buttons and everything, I'm looking at it
like it's Kit from Nightmare.
Speaker 2 (33:22):
I'll give you, I'll give you one.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
There's an intimidation factor, and there are two things that
are very different, but there's one common factor.
Speaker 2 (33:30):
Water is involved.
Speaker 3 (33:33):
Anytime when I was a kid and I had a
fish tank, that crap would get foggy and terrible, Like
I couldn't figure out how to keep a fish tank clean.
Speaker 2 (33:42):
Do that. And for that same reason, I have a
pool guy.
Speaker 3 (33:45):
You could argue that's like a waste of one hundred
bucks to me, but to me, the pool guy's worth
it because I feel like if I didn't, my pool
would be green. Yeah, there's chemicals, like the chemicals you
start talking about cleaning a fish tank, cleaning a pool,
anything with water balance of pH in this, you might
as well be talking about science class to me, like Cavi.
You know, I would have a goldfish, it'd be dead
(34:07):
in a week. I'd be like, wow, why is there
mold in this fishbowl?
Speaker 2 (34:10):
See? You know what.
Speaker 3 (34:10):
That's why when people talk about intelligence, it's just everybody
has a different skill set.
Speaker 2 (34:15):
That's really what it comes down there.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
There's people that are terrified of speaking, and you do
it for a living, so I have a different skill set,
and and they have knowledge in different things. And look
sho heeo Tani. I'm sure he's an intelligent person. We
know he's great at a lot of things, but the
dude can't parallel part. And everybody has their weak sponsor,
but the weakness their achilles. You that's the fun of
(34:39):
you know, taking a look around the room and taking
a look at your friends and family. We all have strengths,
we all have weaknesses, such as life. I was talking
to one of the dads at the school. This guy's
like one of those super smart guys that you know
computer programming and you know, like is the boss of
a company with all these you know, you know those
rooms of like the racks of computers and stuff. He's
(34:59):
the guys builds those, But he's like, what you do?
I would be terrified of talking. I'm like, you build computers.
I don't even know how to restart my commit right,
I don't know how to print out a document or
as you said earlier, in excel sheet, right, Yeah, yeah,
I can't do it, So show hey can't parallel park.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
We posed this question to Fox Sports Radio Nation, what
can't you do? Well? Coming up? You talked about the
excitement that baseball is about to bring.
Speaker 3 (35:25):
Yeah, there's a buzz in the air that's a little
different this year, and I think it's because there's a
lot of teams.
Speaker 2 (35:32):
That are that are going all in, and there are.
Speaker 3 (35:36):
A lot of big market teams that are going all in,
and I think that helps. I'm sure there's a lot
of small market fans that aren't as excited, but you
have to be intrigued to see what happens with some
of these other big teams.
Speaker 2 (35:50):
There's a different buzz for sure.
Speaker 3 (35:52):
So a little baseball, well, NBA, little football, a little
of everything coming up. Having some fun in for dam
Pat Covino on rich More next on Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 6 (36:02):
Thanks for listening to The Dan Patrick Show podcast. Be
sure to catch us live every weekday morning nine until
noon eastern six to nine Pacific on Fox Sports Radio,

Speaker 2 (36:17):
Hey, Mary Mack, who is this is? Jello? Who?
Speaker 5 (36:21):
Jello Cello, Jell Jello, Jella, Jellaell Jet Ball Le Angelo Ball?
All right, yeah, I think it's the Angelo Ball. Did
you guys hear the Lil Wayne remix?
Speaker 2 (36:36):
It was so bad? I loved it, but I appreciate
your musical choices. Thank you.
Speaker 1 (36:42):
Mary mac Levar's son Danny, Oh it is Yeah, yes, sir. Yeah,
he performed for the NFL recently performed at All Star Weekend.
Speaker 2 (36:53):
No I knew that.
Speaker 3 (36:54):
Yeah, and he's getting a lot of props in the
world of hip hop.
Speaker 2 (37:00):
I've been reading all the articles. I just don't know
the song. A lot of lip syncing going on too.
Speaker 3 (37:04):
That's Danny g super producing, also a hip hop guru.
At eight seven, seven ninety nine out Fox's Covino and
rich In for Dan Patrick, and again every Wednesday, we
do Midweek major the biggest stories in the world the
sports and pop culture.
Speaker 2 (37:17):
Danny G's working on that.
Speaker 3 (37:19):
We decide if these stories are mid and most of
them probably are because it's a week week.
Speaker 2 (37:26):
Are they mid? Are they weak?
Speaker 3 (37:28):
Are they major stories in the world of sports? Stick
around for that again, live in Mercedes Benz Studio.
Speaker 2 (37:33):
I'm gonna talk some Floyd Mayweather Junior in a little bit.
Speaker 3 (37:37):
There's some NFL stuff I haven't thought about, neighbors, but
major League Baseball, Yeah, there is a buzz.
Speaker 2 (37:46):
There's such a buzz about it.
Speaker 3 (37:47):
Again, we talked about show Hey pulling into spring training
campt Parallel Park. But just the fact that you see
clips of him throwing. Look, we're out here in LA.
But I'm no Dodgers fan. Seeing him throwing gets me excited,
like ooh yeah. Seeing all these players showing up on
(38:08):
their new team gets me excited as a Yankees fan.
Like I said, seeing all the new guys showing up
cleanly shaven, which, by the way, I think is kind
of weak because it's twenty twenty five. Let these guys
be whoever they are with the compromise, keep it professional.
Speaker 2 (38:24):
But facial hair is okay. You know when it comes
to baseball.
Speaker 3 (38:30):
You know how they always say like, you can't really
judge a politician a president until years later, because you
got to sort of take a look back later on
in the moment. It's very hard to judge if something's
working or not. They say that about a lot of things,
but politics. I always bring that up, like, well, you
can't really tell looking back. You need a minute, And
(38:50):
I think enough time is passed in baseball where we
could say without a doubt that it's very easy to
want to criticize missionaris in all the major sports. But
the changes Baseball made with the pitch clock, the slightly
bigger bases.
Speaker 2 (39:08):
They're pizza boxes, some of the.
Speaker 3 (39:10):
Replay options, the man on second and extra innings during
the regular season. All the little things that people bitched
and complained about when they came out have now translated
to bigger ratings, higher attendance, and it seems like a
buzz and an interest in Major League baseball. Honestly, I
got a credit the postseason, and if you feel different
(39:32):
about it, let us know again. Of course, where gonna
feel excited about it? First of all, we're baseball fans.
Second of all, if you're new to our show. I'm
a Yankees fan. They were in the World Series last year.
They made some cool moves. Rich as a Mets fan,
they got Juan Soto in high expectations. They're spending money
(39:52):
like crazy, they got new jerseys. There's lots to be
excited about.
Speaker 2 (39:57):
Danny g is a Dodgers fan.
Speaker 3 (40:00):
I win one hundred and twenty games. And the other
side of the question is this is it a guarantee.
There's so many ways to look at this. Is it
simple or easy to say that it's a guarantee that
the Yankees, Dodgers, and Mets, being they spent so much money,
are automatically in the playoffs this year playoffs? No, seriously,
(40:23):
it's a long season, right, one hundred and sixty two games.
But when you do look at some of these teams,
and it's not just the money spent though, they're making
solid moves, like they're really creating big teams. As a result,
you're seeing the Red Sox make some sweet moves like
that trickles down because if teams really want to compete,
they're now forced to make other good moves. There's other
(40:43):
teams are good rosters. Yeah, the Alias Philadelphia Toronto Cleveland.
The Padres are still good, Danny, gres hate them, still
got a stacked lineup. In fact, you could argue they're
the team that matches up the best against the dots
punishable faces. Yeah, so here's the question based on it.
Two questions, two part doozy. If you want to speculate
(41:05):
even more, let us know. Are we jaded because of
course we're rooting for the bigger market team, so of
course we're excited because you're expecting them to go far.
Speaker 2 (41:14):
How far?
Speaker 3 (41:14):
I don't know, But is it better to be surprised
when your team makes the playoffs or the pressure of
like the expectation, because I feel like it's expected that
all three of those teams are in the playoffs.
Speaker 2 (41:27):
I don't think there's any question.
Speaker 3 (41:28):
I said at a dinner last night, and Rich and
his buddy were debating, like, you think the Mets will
make the playoffs? I'm like, they better make the playoffs?
How did they not make the playoffs?
Speaker 2 (41:37):
Danny?
Speaker 3 (41:37):
The not so fun fact about the Mets, And I'm
sure other franchises have like weak ass stats like this.
Other than nineteen ninety nine, two thousand, the Mets have
never made the postseason back to back seasons. There is
an asterisk there though, because unless you county fifteen to
(41:58):
twenty sixteen, unless you got the twenty sixteen in one
game wildcard, but I can't count that as the post
But I'm saying for technic count I know I can't
count against when you when you make the one game
playoff before the wildcard was a three game set, I
can't call that the playoffs. You played one hundred and
sixty games. But a lot of teams think they rebuild.
(42:18):
That happens in the NFL and the NBA all the time,
where you think, God, this is the year, and the
team falls flat.
