Speaker 3 (02:16):
That's right? Because I pitied a fool that doesn't so
good morning. We're here.
Speaker 4 (02:20):
We're Covino and Rich Pee's voice a little too high
at this hour. Remember it's earlier here in LA. We're
in Los Angeles, the mean streets of LA. We're lifting
the barrio right now. Rich Davis is in Texas, so
call him hop along Dickey, but call us up and
say what's up? Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox.
We gotta kick it off with less p W Herman
(02:41):
impressions way back in a Wednesday and more. Lebron James,
Lebron James. Yeo, it's uh, it's happening. And when I
say it's happening, I mean the Lakers are coming together.
Lebron's healthy again, Lebron James.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
And you got Austin Reeves, the unassuming goofy white dude,
and you got Luca and they were saying, oh, it
is my odlyce.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
Related that I wouldn't say racist, racist has this negative
connotation to it.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
Related.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Yeah, I'm a white guy. I'm allowed to say I'm
a goofy white guy. I'm allowed to say Austin Reeves
is one of me. Rich is the president, So I'm
the president of goofy white guy club. I'm trying to
recruit Austin Reeves for for years.
Speaker 5 (03:27):
I have a couple of friends who are goofy white guys.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
I sent them an application. He's like, I'm in, But
now the Lakers. Last night, Danny g you must have
been salivating over watching those.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Three stars work together.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
They look dominant at times, and we talked about it
yesterday on our show. So let me just reiterate that
Austin Reeves gets not enough credit for what he's bringing
to the table.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
You know what I thought about last night, Danny.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
As a Niners fan, if you're new to coven On Rich,
we appreciate you hanging with us. And for Dan Patrick,
I'm a big forty nine Ers fan because Austin Reeves
was not drafted to because he's unassuming. There's a little
rock Purdy vibe with him, meaning like, oh shucks, Like
it takes a little more to impress people.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
It takes circus numbers. It takes for him to lead
the team and put up circus numbers to get the
credit that he's deserved for a minute. Now, he's playing
in Los Angeles, he's playing with superstars, he's playing big,
He's leading a team for the most part, he deserves
that superstar sort of recognition, like he should be a
(04:31):
household name, and unless you're a basketball fan, especially a
Lakers fan, you really don't know who he is, and
by now you should. In fact, his goofy sort of
attitude should also make him more of a star, but
it's not. However, I think when his name's in the
same sentence as Kobe as it was this week and
he starts climbing those Lakers' rankings, yeah he's gonna get
(04:54):
that recognition he deserves.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
But again, he had.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
To go above and beyond because of his unassuming ways,
I think to get that recognition. Just this week, Austin
Reeves is the second most twenty five point games by
a Laker guard since two thousand. Only Kobe had more.
So second to Kobe, that's unreal. He's in serious company.
He went five for nine from deep against the Bucks
(05:18):
and officially passed Caldwell Pope for seventh place on the Lakers'
all time three points list.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
So he's making three points left and right. He has.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
Five hundred and twenty three threes in two ninety one games.
That's before yesterday's game and yesterday numbers he lit it
up yesterday props him. Luca had thirty seven points. Reeves
had twenty six points and was leading for a while.
He had that four point play that Danny g got
all excited about Lebron James eleven points. But here's where
(05:48):
you were getting a rich I could see what's happening.
We didn't have a clue. I'm not sure the league
had a clue, because we're like, how was Lebron gonna
fit into this twelve dish in the ball around? And
I quote Danny g He's still doing his producer stuff
right now. I quote Danny G Man, it's look, he
was magic Johnson out, dude, go let's slow the magic Johnson.
(06:11):
Let's first of all, it don't sound anything like that.
Speaker 5 (06:14):
I said. He was dropping magic Johnson like passes.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Yo. Man, it was like Johnson.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
You know something about john All I heard was your
Johnson or Johnson or something.
Speaker 5 (06:23):
He what he turned into like a quarterback, a game
manager if you will.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
He really did. It really looked that way.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
And here's my most obvious we call this on the
CNR showgram an obvious servation. Here's my observation watching the game.
The most obvious one. It really looked for the first
time in forever.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
Okay, Elsa like Lebron James was having fun. It looked
like he was. I get it.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
It was his return excited, but there was a different
vibe and a different level of fun and excitement from
Lebron James. And that's fun and excitement you need to have,
I think to win in this league. When there was
too much pressure on Lebron, it wasn't fun and it
was all on him. If he's able to dish it
around like this, man, they're unstoppable. I've said it prisoner
(07:13):
of the moment, but I mean it. Let's go well.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
I love that phrase prisoner of the moment because I'm
gonna say a very prisoner of the moment type of thing.
They're eleven and four. They're not They're not like average.
The Lakers are good. But there's a team in the West.
You might have heard of them, the Oklahoma City Thunder,
who might lose like three games all year. They just
(07:36):
don't lose. Okaysee, just doesn't lose. Here's my question. If
Lebron's playing fun and we know the end is New Year,
and I do have the sentiment that when all said
and done. Lebron retires, I think we're gonna look back
at times and say, you know what, we were hard
on him. We didn't really appreciate him. The constant comparisons
to MJ and kobeing Yo. I know he said and
(07:58):
did it to himself with the whole not one, not two, three,
four five? Are we still hanging on to that Lebron
Miami Heath thin personainly?
Speaker 4 (08:06):
No, Rich I'm not a Lebron lover. I gotta make
that clear. I'm not a hater either, right. I respect
greatness and have admired his career. He kicked off season
twenty three. I believe he kicked it off with a
three right Danny g a sweet bucket to kick it off,
and that passes Vince Carter most all time twenty three seasons.
You know, when I see him with his Lebron Aham
(08:27):
Lincoln beard and it's getting a little gray, and he's
just rocking that thinned out sort of look. I'm looking
at him not with the same lens that I looked
at him before, not five, not six, not seven. I'm
looking at him now as a guy who has his
son in the league. He's having fun, he has the
(08:49):
ability to switch his game up. But he has this
this wisdom about him now and at least like even
that look in his face, like he looks older now.
And I don't know, man, I'm rooting for him in
a different away, like, yo, dude, have one, at least
one more great season and stick it to this OKAC team. Man,
they're young, but he's Lebron, and they have superstars. They've
(09:11):
got Luca, they've got Bronni off the bench, hit in threes.
Oh yop, don't don't, don't, don't be making it tell
like Bronny is like a contributor. That's a dope moment. No,
but even eight and had twenty points. I didn't even
bring that up. He had twenty points. If Lebron's able
to dish it around. They made some crazy passes last night, right.
I looked at him as a guy yesterday, to answer
your question, old Rich, not a guy that you wanted
(09:33):
to roll your eyes at. I looked at him as
a guy who we've seen grow up. In fact, we've
grown up with together, and he's getting older and I
can only root for that. I saw Lebron the man
last night, not LEBRONI attitude having basketball player Comano.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
You and I have been together a long time as
a radio you know, friendship and partnership. We saw Lebron
go from Cleveland to Miami to the Lakers, that we've
seen the journey, and I would say, run the boards.
I know we play that clip all the time, the
not three, not four, not five.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Not two, not three, not four, not five?
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Are we still holding it against Lebron his one like
because it came across so arrogant and never really came
to fruition. They want a few in Miami. But I
look at Lebron now and dare I say, as the
season continues and Oklahoma City right now in Vegas is
a plus one seventy five to win the NBA Finals.
They are like like leaps and bounds above anyone else
(10:34):
as favorites to win back to back NBA titles. The
Lakers won two, three, four five, They're like they got
the six best odds at plus fourteen hundred. Could there
be a sentiment that the Lebron haters maybe change their
tune and it becomes the fun story, like yo, Lebron,
one more before it's all done?
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Like yes, could be a sentiment where if.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
He brings the energy and like he brought upon himself,
he shouldn't have to do that, but he does come
with that sense of not two, not three, not four,
sense of arrogance and and lebron and me bron and
things like that. If he plays with the same energy
and attitude that he had last night, it's contagious.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
It's likable.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
It's fun when when other people, I mean, it's just
I don't know if it's science, but it is. If
other people are having fun, you want to have fun
with him, and it's contagious.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
What's the theory, it's the Neil Strauss theory. Yeah, Danny J.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Spot, I was Sam everyone listening all the dan Ats
and Dan Patrick audience. I remember back in the day,
there was like, remember like in the two thousands, it
was like a hot thing to like have these like
dating coaches. Not not people have dating coaches, but these
guys would write books about how to get the attention
to women. Like it's like corny stuff. But there was
one thing I remember thinking, all right, that's not corny,
(11:55):
that's true, and it was if you're at a bar
with your buddies and you guys are laughing and having fun.
Somehow women will infiltrate your group because you are having fun.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
When you're having fun and laughing, enjoying yourself.
Speaker 4 (12:09):
Like subconscious subconsciously is like, what's going on over there?
Speaker 3 (12:12):
What's so funny? What are these guys?
Speaker 2 (12:14):
You're to guess where everyone's eyes go, Camino besides the
hot booties. If you're in Vegas, everyone looks at the
craps table where everyone's high five.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
And and cheering, like, yeah, what's going on over there? Everyone's
having fun? I want to get in on that. We are.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
We gravitate towards fun and people really, you know, bringing
the vibe. And I think Lebron with his mean face
in Miami, like yeah, let's go, baby, pounding his chirs
not two, not three, not four. That's that's a young Lebron.
This is a end is near. I got some gray
in my beard, I got wisdom. I'm an old dude,
you know, like as you know, like he's looking more
(12:51):
like Morgan Freeman than like a young man. Now he's
Lebron's not young, And dude, I noticed that yesterday. Is
he an incredible shape? Absolutely? The guy's a specimen.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
That's not my point he's not out there hobbling around
like an old cream abdul Jabbar or something. This guy's
in great and incredible shape. But he doesn't have to
be that star anymore, and I think he's accepted that.
In fact, Danyg said that he made a gesture and
has sort of implied that maybe we get more out
of Lebron because he doesn't have to be everything for
(13:23):
everyone because he has other people to play around him. Danyg,
you said when he made a gesture, that's sort of
what he.
Speaker 5 (13:28):
Is conferring when he checked out of the game or
was checked out of the game by Reddick, and I'm
always gonna call it. Staple Center crowd gave him a
standing oh for his passing performance. Basically at the end
of the game, he kind of made a gesture like
this is what I'm gonna do now because he had
more assists than points.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
And you know what if he could unselfishly make that
his game, because that's an ego thing too, when you're
putting up twenty five to thirty your whole career.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
Yeah, he's still digits. I think that was the priority, right, Yeah,
you help me keep that going.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Yeah, but I'm saying, if you could throw ten to
fifteen assistant there and maybe score eighteen or score twenty
or sixteen. If that's the Lebron game, we forget that
Magic Johnson wasn't scoring thirty points a game that's very
similar to Now I made funny when you compare him,
but that's a very similar to Magic Johnson type of
(14:25):
game when we were little kids, scoring points, but more
so being a leader out there. And if Lebron could
do that with a smile on his face, dare I
say that the public, well, all of a sudden, look
at Lebron as a face again, like you know how
John Cena just went from good guy to heel back
to good guy. Like maybe we see Lebron James go
back to good guy. Maybe Lebron James he won't be gassed.
(14:48):
It's not all on him. He's got people he could
dish it too.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
And when I say dish it, we're talking like Globe
trotter Magic Johnson. Like passes last night. If you didn't
see it because it was a late game on the
West coast, across the court, he made a sweet pass
across the court. Again, I even said it, but Bronni
did get in there, hit a nice three point shot.
You see him fire it up about that. It was
a really fun vibe. We're just telling you it's his return.
(15:12):
It was a different Lebron last night. It really really was. Again,
it's one game, and it was the Jazz, the five
and what are they five and nine? The five and
nine Jazz.
Speaker 5 (15:20):
They have a young team, but you saw him at
the start of the game. They had a double digit
lead over the Lakers, and I think all Laker fans
watching and basketball fans watching around the world were like, ah,
look at Lebron's gonna clog things up here we go.
The chemistry is not gonna match here. But quickly they
figured it out. By the third quarter, they were all
clicking together. To go back to Rich's point about the
(15:41):
thunder though, Rich, I know you loved to schedule watch. Yeah,
let's look at February ninth.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
That is, Rich loves to look at the schedule, schedule watching.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Yeah, Oh I love looking at the schedule. Danny, please
take over.
Speaker 5 (15:57):
Let's hear this the day after the Super Bowl, so
two things to look forward to that Sunday and then Monday,
February ninth, the Lakers host the Thunder. All right, That's
that's the real test here, because obviously we're at the
very early stages of the NBA season. The Lakers just
got blown out by the Thunder and they bounced back
with a couple of dub three now double digit wins
(16:18):
after that. But they have to do this against a
team like the Thunder and if they can't.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
A couple months, a couple months together with this crew
now to really gel and say, all right, February puts,
that's just a date you marked out on the calendar,
the Monday after Super Bowl Sunday. Where are the Lakers?
If healthy, how do they match up against Okac and Cavino.
You know, we talk about fatigue in sports. We got
it with the Chiefs, like people are, oh my god,
I'm so sick of Tailor and Travis and Mahomes and
(16:45):
Andy Reid and that.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
You know, we talked about that.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
When it came to MVP and Aaron Judge not getting
the award, people had Aaron Judge fatigue. It's like, well,
guess what, he still deserves the award. I don't care
if you're sick of them or not. And you know,
the Dodgers as likable as they are. There was a
sense of like most people were like, come on, Blue Jays.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
You know.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
I think that people really don't want to see the
Okay City, the Oka say Thunder win.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
I really don't. I don't think Okay See, you got
to think like gangster Okay, Okay, she there is.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
I don't think the thunder is like this fan favorite,
like yo, we want to see this be a dynasty.
I could be wrong, but they don't got the you
know when when when all the other dynasties did it,
whether it's Golden State.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Or you know, the Bulls.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
When we were kids, or the Lakers or Celtics, like
there was there was a little something more no offense to.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
S g A.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
I don't think any anyone's like, man, I really want
to see this team run it back a bunch of times.
I think the Lakers if they faced off against Okay
See on the road, I'm way looking ahead. I do
think there's a sentiment that even though the Lakers are
this legendary franchise, I think people would be rooting for
the Lakers.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
I really do. I think that'd be.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Lebron winning one more is way more appealing than Oka SA.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Great for basketball. It just is, you know, it's it's
been overseted.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
But it's true.
Speaker 4 (18:20):
When the Lakers are good, the NBA is more exciting,
it's better. There's so many franchises in sports like that.
Lakers are definitely one of them. And you know, we
saw a different side. We're not swinging if you're new
to the Coveno on Rich show, we're not swinging from
the Magic Johnson. We're just James. We're just telling you
what we saw last night. And even the criticism he
(18:44):
handled with a smile and a smirk and fun. And
it was, like I said, it was noticeable. That's why
we're pointing at pointing it out. People were asking reporters
were asking him, Yeah, how'd you feel about people questioning
how you'd fit in with the chemistry of the team,
And like he laughed about it. He's like, come on, man,
I could I could win with anybody. He goes, why
is that even a question? And he proved it. He
(19:07):
proved it yesterday in a big way. If they're able
to keep that up, there's no reason why they shouldn't.
The Lakers are back in the conversation again, even more so,
I should say, because there was question of how's Lebron gonna?
We questioned it, how long does it take till they
build that chemistry? One night yesterday we saw it. The
Lakers win one six, And the side question besides Lebron's
(19:31):
return is why isn't Austin Reeves a bigger star? Well,
he's bound to be, He's gonna be, he already should be.
Think about it and we'll talk some Skataboo and think
about this. Do you expect all your athletes, all your
heroes to be robots? Do you expect them to be
sports robots? Or do you like to see the human
side of your favorite athletes? Because there's the Camp Scataboo story.
(19:53):
We gotta tell you there is, and I'm gonna tell
you why fans are more ridiculous than ever before. Uh,
this cam Scataboo story makes me want to strangle all
the people that are getting down on this guy because
he did something involving the WWE.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
And there's people mad about it, like what are we
doing here? What are we doing? We'll get to that
and a bunch more next.
Speaker 2 (20:13):

Rich Davis super pumped about the Lakers. You know we're
not even well, I guess if we have any teams
the Lakers, but it's just about Lebron's return and Reeves
looking like a superstar.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
Danny G's super pumped. He's the resident Laker fan here.
Speaker 5 (22:20):
You guys went through that whole first segment, by the way,
without even mentioning Luca.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
Actually I mentioned he had thirty seven points, but that
really was it.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
It was.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
It was about no, no, no, no, no, not the points.
Meaning that's the only time we brought him up. Yeah,
because Lebron was just putting on a show. It really
was all about him, and we shouldn't have been surprised
that he's able to get in there and dish it
around and play with anybody. It's just a matter of
is he willing to be a different type of player,
like the certain players that are able to change their
(22:53):
game and other players that refuse to. It's like a
power pitcher, right, how many power pitchers were just really
right on the fastball for the rest of their career
until they couldn't play anymore. And then some went crafty
and decided to switch it up and changed her game
and work on the curveball, work on the on the split,
split ball, the splitter, you know, split ball, the.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
Special pitch.
Speaker 4 (23:18):
Yeah, you know, it gives him more longevity. Yeah, if
Lebron's able to switch his game up like that, he
gets more longevity the old split ball.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
No. I always think of Pedro Martinez.
Speaker 5 (23:29):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Based on what you're saying, like, if Lebron could adjust
his game Pedro for the Red Sox early on, you
know guys, a lanky, five ten dude throwing heat over
overpowering people. Then if you look at the end of
Pedro's career, you could say that about some of those
Atlanta Braves pitchers in the nineties, when you're able to
adjust and say, all right, well, I'm not going to
(23:50):
overpower people anymore. Let me work on my cutter, let
me work on my my secondary pitches.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
You just gonna have a longer career.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
And if Lebron's like, no, I don't pass the ball,
he'd be a detriment. The fact that Lebron has those
ball handling skills, that's what you said. His you know,
worth is so much more, especially when you got scorers
like Luca and you have Austin Reeves who is proving
to be Would you argue all star level is Austin
(24:19):
Reeves an all Star level player?
Speaker 3 (24:21):
Yesterday? No doubt? Yeah dude, we said it yesterday.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
The Twitter x feedback we got and some of the
stuff on like Instagram and TikTok, people like you guys
think he's.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
An All Star. You're on drugs, NA, Danny G.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
You would agree he's an All Star, right, he doesn't
look like an All Star.
Speaker 5 (24:36):
Yes, so far, He's got to keep up this level
of play and be one of the leaders of the team.
We talked about that yesterday, not just take a back
seat to Luca and Lebron, but also now they got
shooters like La Ravia, They got a couple of bigs.
You even saw Jackson Hayes get in the mix yesterday.
So that bench is going to have to stay hot
and healthy throughout the season for the Lakers to climb
(24:58):
over the OKC thunder.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Yeah, you know what, shame on me, because what did
I say a month ago, Cavino on our afternoon show,
I said I was gonna deny the NBA until Christmas
because I was so invested in the NFL and when
the baseball playoffs are going on, and here I am,
I'm like, I'm starting to get sucked in early, which
means we said it before. We're going through a sports
renaissance right now. I know that sounds way I feel
(25:22):
like I'm saying something way over exaggerating, but baseball was popping.
Baseball was insane this year. The NFL, the parody is unbelievable.
We don't know who's good who's bad week to week.
One week bo Nick stinks and next week might be.
Speaker 4 (25:38):
The teams just sort of ridiculous at this point, but
it has us interested for sure, like what is it? Yeah,
then you're like, wait a minute, can the Patriots be
back to their glory or or they have?
Speaker 3 (25:48):
They played no One?
Speaker 2 (25:49):
There's a million stories and then here's the NBA, and
you got some great storylines as well. So the only
thing bumming me out about the NBA, and you could
say the same about the NFL. It goes with my
conspiracy theory that human bodies are not designed to play
at the speed and the strength that sports are being
(26:10):
played now. Because what is the only thing hurting the
NBA and the NFL right now?
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Turf toe injuries injuries? Turf toes injuries.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Think about it, Wemby Yannis in football, how many wide
receivers have we lost?
Speaker 3 (26:22):
And you know guys that are sidelined.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
The game is being played so fast, the game is
being played by dudes that are faster and stronger than
ever before. So the only the only bad thing about
sports right now. I think people are too big and strong.
And that's it really all right? Fine, eight seven, seven
ninety nine on Fox. That's our number.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
You could also see us live participate live live chat,
Get involved Covino and Rich FSR on YouTube, CoV I
and O Covino and Rich FSR join us and remember
giving away prizes. We got Mike's Wednesday words of Wisdom
got Midweek Major. During the show the biggest stories in
sports and pop culture, we decide if the stories are
(27:05):
mid as the kiddos say, week or major. We do
it every Wednesday on our show five to seven on
the East, two to four on the West. But we're
in for the great Dan Patrick. So any final thoughts
right now? We'll touch on it again about Lebron or
Reeves or Luca. They played an exciting game. It was
it was a late game. Maybe you missed it. You
(27:26):
probably saw the highlights. You gotta take our word for it,
because man, it was electric.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
What up, Danny G I know Lebron wakes up to
a five seventy in Los Angeles, so he's listening to
you guys right now. Noise all right, So Hi Lebron,
good morning, But I won't mince words. His ego is large.
We know this. Can he put this aside full time
this season? Because after the game, he and coach Reddick
were both talking about how he's just getting his win
(27:53):
back in the debut, he's getting his feet back underneath
of him. Does that imply at all to you guys
that he feels like he's gonna go back to forcing
things maybe and taking over as the man.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
Dude?
Speaker 4 (28:06):
That was just the perfect pocket of what you need
from this guy. Eleven points twelve assists right there, improve
on that. We don't need him. You don't need him
scoring thirty seven points. You don't need him being Luca,
you don't need him being Reeves. Let those guys shine.
You've been in the league forever. I think it's more
impressive to see this side of Lebron at this stage
(28:26):
of his career. If he's willing to put that ego aside,
that's the key ingredient. That's the magic sauce, that's the
secret sauce you need to win. I think so if
he's able to do that, I think that's the that's
the question. But the answer is if he is, they're
gonna be a team in the playoffs for sure.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
Are you saying that Lebron listens to Dan Patrick in
LA every morning?
Speaker 5 (28:48):
One?
Speaker 2 (28:50):
But that's the austments we were talking about. My answer
is Lebron's perfect.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
They could do no run no yea, I'm kissing a
little ass. Why are you kissing lake yourrass?
Speaker 2 (29:03):
So Coavino, let me shive gears to football if you
don't mind. I talked about all those injuries in the NBA,
in the NFL. It's the only downfall of sports right now,
all the injuries to key players. Besides that, all the
all the major sports are more exciting than ever before.
I really feel that way, and I don't want to
sound like the host of a game show the best
(29:24):
season ever.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
I really do think things are great right now. Yeah,
that Jesse Palmer is full of bs. This is not
the best season of the Bachelor ever?
Speaker 3 (29:32):
Was he talking about? Says that every season?
Speaker 2 (29:35):
So camp scataboo scataboo, which just sounds like a made
up word from Adam Sandler.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
Scatterbo.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
But camp scataboo, I mean, we're talking about a guy
that was electrifying and fun in college. And then we wondered, hey,
is it going to translate to the NFL. You know
a lot of teams. I was like, well, we wanted him,
but hey, Giants picked him up. And I'll give you
the answer. It translated. The guy plays with heart, plays
with intensity. He's such a bro. He's cut from them,
(30:10):
Gronkowski cloth, he's head buttoned, Jackson Dart, everyone's injured now
and I got a major problem.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
I always think of that picture though, with them posing
in the end zone.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
You know what you're I'm talking about, right, yeah, like
two It's like, yeah, like they're gangsters, so funny man.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Yeah. The energy he brought was was again contagious. It
was great. I love that he was doing before he
got hurt.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
I think because of Camp Skataboo and because of Jackson Dart,
I think if you are one of the people hoping
to get that coaching vacancy, hey yeah, maybe maybe interim
coach ends up with it. But I think the Giants'
head coaching positions a hot a hot seat right now
that you would want to be in because I think
(30:55):
that team really is on the upward trajectory. Went healthy
next year. Next year should be a fun year for
Giant fans. But right now, there's a lot of people
giving camp scataboo. Is it flack or slack Camino. Slack
is what people use at the office, right, Ah, that
thing that I always ignored, Like, I'm not doing that. Yeah,
I'll send it to you on slack. I'm like, how
(31:15):
about you beat it? How about no, I'm not kidding that.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Can you text me? I don't do that, don't teams? Yeah? No, thanks, Yeah,
flack would be the answer to you.
Speaker 2 (31:24):
So they're giving him flag because he was at Madison
Square Garden with some teammates and comedian Andrew Schultz was
there too, and they got a little shoving match with
the judgment day in Camp Scataboo's just having fun.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
I mean he's in the front row. The crowd goes nuts.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
They write him into Monday Night Raw and Scataboo, who's
such a broie, fun type of dude, gets into it
a little bit, a little tussle at Monday Night Raw,
and of course Bozo fans seem to have a problem
with this so much so the camp scout how to
release a statement. This is what he wrote on x
(32:05):
He honestly, if you don't like him having a good
time while dealing with a tough time. They just go
ahead and unfollow and casually move on. I'm not able
to play football and have the fun I've been having
my whole life, So I'm just trying to do things
outside the box to keep me happy, enjoy the rest
(32:26):
of the all's week, and just don't talk about me.
Speaker 4 (32:28):
If he ain't gonna say anything nice, he really is
kept from then cloth huh.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
But I'm team Scataboo on this because if you don't
think he wants to be on the football field, you're
on drugs.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
If you don't think this guy wants to be out there,
everybody cares more than him.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
Yeah you're you care? You think you care more than
Cam Scattaboo, You bird brain. This guy wants to be
out there. He wants to be competing, So he has
a seasoning ending injury. He's got his Dots boot on,
He's got his boot on his foot. There's nothing he
could do. What do fans want? Do fans want him
to sit home and cry and mope and act like
(33:08):
a little beat or do you want this guy to
try to find joy in other parts of his life?
We have this weird reality as fans that we think
players should be so one dimensional that, hey, man, if
camp Scataboo is not thinking and breathing and living football.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
Then he's not focused. What the f do you want
from this guy?
Speaker 4 (33:30):
I like the boot as a wrestling prop, kind of
like Bobby the Brain had the neck brace, Cowboy Bob
Barton Orton had the cast. Scataboo has the boot. He'll
drop the big boot on you. You know what, rich
I hate to say it, but I see both sides
to this, I really do. And I could tell you
(33:51):
what you got back Skataboo, But remember he's recovering from
an injury, and sometimes guys like him are their own
worst enemy. You already said he's a bonehead, right, So
sometimes guys like that need some coaching and need some
guidance and need to be slapped on the head and say, hey, dude,
you're recovering from a severe ankle injury. We all saw it.
(34:11):
It happened not that long ago, in fact, October twenty
sixth I believe it was. It was late October. This happened.
Maybe you shouldn't be doing that optics. Optically, it's not good.
It's not a good look. You know, if he were
to reaggravate it and it had nothing to do with wrestling.
People are still going to go back to that moment,
so you do have to be careful. October twenty eighth
(34:35):
is when he injured his ankle. That's so that's pretty
soon to be out there on Monday Night Raw. So
I could see why fans are I don't think they're
they're concerned, man, they're concerned fans like, hey, should he
be doing that?
Speaker 2 (34:49):
He wasn't in the ring, he didn't walk down, he
didn't walk down the aisle coming home. The oil come scatable,
and he's in a credit pretend. We need to, you know,
make that here too. You know, maybe maybe a lot
of people think that wrestling's real. Still let me let
me tell you him shoving a wrestler and having some fun,
getting the Madison Square Garden, New York crowd riled up.
(35:12):
I think anyone that has a problem with this is
a real Acidi'm buffoon.
Speaker 3 (35:16):
And you know what, you know, who's guilty?
Speaker 2 (35:18):
People like you and your girlfriend? Whoa, Oh, I'm going
I'm going after you, bro.
Speaker 5 (35:24):
Whoa?
Speaker 3 (35:25):
You know what?
Speaker 2 (35:26):
Covino's girlfriend said something and I hope you don't take
too much offense. But wow, I'm gonna let you know
what it is next, and it has to do with
people like you and your girlfriend that have problems with
athletes doing anything other than sports. Get a grip. We'll
talk about that. We'll talk some more NBA, NFL, and
also Cavino. We got midweek major coming up. We're gonna
(35:49):
give away some prizes. So all right here in for
the great Dan Patrick and Honor to fill in here
on Cavino and Rich.

James ass kissing.
Speaker 3 (36:14):
We did this hour away. We got to call it
as we see it.
Speaker 4 (36:19):
We know it's one game, you Jabroni's but that's what happened,
Covino and Rich. He had a game. Now we're talking Scataboo.

Speaker 4 (37:28):

he's always picking his nose and he thinks we don't
see it, but we see it. And it just sucks
when you guys take a screenshot of it and post
it everywhere. Not that I'm telling you to do that,
but sure, really nice, bro, Thanks so skytbo.
Speaker 3 (37:47):
Got Scataboo was on Monday Night Raw. That's the story.
Speaker 4 (37:50):
He's getting criticized by fans like, yo, bro, hey, chill out.
This just happened October twenty eighth. You hat an ankle injury.
You're rehabbing. Should you be out there putting all that
pressure on your ankle?
Speaker 3 (38:04):
I'm sure he's not giving. He wasn't giving souplexes in
the ring. He wasn't.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
He wasn't giving anyone the stole cold stunner. The dude
was in the front row. Did we not speaking of
the Giants back in the Was it the who was it?
Speaker 1 (38:19):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (38:20):
What? What team was it? It was the Giants when
they were on the boat.
Speaker 4 (38:24):
Yeah, But was was it Odell Beckham Junior and Victor
uh Victor Cruz right dancing when they were salsa dancing
on the boat.
Speaker 3 (38:34):
Yeah, it was no big deal.
Speaker 4 (38:35):
But didn't we say, ah, maybe it's not a good
look before a big game. You think it's a good
look when he's rehabbing and everyone was so heartbroken over this,
it's just not giants.
Speaker 2 (38:48):
Giants are parting on a boat. Then they go on
to get crushed in the playoffs. That's way different because
they were mentally, you know, incapable of partying and winning
a big game the next week.
Speaker 3 (39:00):
MP Scataboo is not playing the rest of the year.
Speaker 2 (39:01):
Hey, camp Scataboo, see you in August, see you, you know,
week one of the NFL next year.
Speaker 3 (39:07):
Why are we caring about what he does now?
Speaker 2 (39:09):
If he's bringing himself joy, if you know, if you're
just joining us, Camp Scataboo getting a lot of crap
to the point where he had to come out and say, hey, guys, uh,
you know, if you don't like that I'm having a
good time while I'm dealing with this tough time, then
go ahead and unfollow and casually move along. I'm not
able to play football and have the fun I've been
having my whole life, So I'm just trying to find
(39:29):
things to keep me happy, enjoy the rest of the year.
Week and if you're not gonna say anything nice, you like,
essentially beat it. And I'm teams Scataboo on this because
people and fans are delusional maniacs. I think athletes should
only live a one dimensional life like camp Scatabu should
be sitting in his bedroom crying in his ass soup
(39:49):
until he's healthy to play again next year, and guys
like you were just as guilty.
Speaker 4 (39:53):
Well, I look at these guys and I realize how
much they're paid and there's sort of admired by millions
of people as physical specimens. That's their job. You want
them to be solely focused. If we as fans feel
we're more invested than the actual players, sometimes that is
a problem.
Speaker 3 (40:11):
We never want to feel like we care more.
Speaker 4 (40:13):
That's why fans don't like it when after a loss
you see people playing slapass with the opposing team, and
when opponents are buddy chummy it rubs us the wrong
way is because fans are invested. So if fans managers
are invested in these guys as actual investments, yeah, we
want them to have those same priorities and take it easy,
(40:34):
take it.
Speaker 3 (40:34):
Slow, man.
Speaker 4 (40:35):
You have this illusion, and it might not be an
accurate or fair one, but that their sole focused should
be on the game.
Speaker 2 (40:41):
The scalvey here that I'm pointing out on the on
the YouTube page.
Speaker 3 (40:46):
On behalf of pretty much everybody that feels that way.
Speaker 2 (40:50):
Fan short for fanatic, which isn't necessarily like a complimentary
word fanatic, like you expect these guys to do nothing.
I heard Cavino's girlfriend, and I don't want to talk
badly about the woman you love, that's my woman, But
I heard your girlfriend about I don't know, three weeks ago.
(41:14):
She was bitching and complaining, not just to you, because
I'm sure that's what she does as well, but she
has Josh Allen on her fantasy team.
Speaker 3 (41:22):
And I saw her on.
Speaker 2 (41:23):
Social media mad that Josh Allen was dressing up at
a Halloween party with Hallie Steinfeldt, because why was She'd
he go dress up?
Speaker 3 (41:31):
But he wasn't playing that great? Well, you know what,
you just nailed it. I get it. This is before
he had a big game last week, right, Don't.
Speaker 5 (41:38):
Tell me that she had him on the bench this
past week.
Speaker 3 (41:40):
No, No, last week. He had a great week.
Speaker 4 (41:42):
It was a bit of a comeback week for him, statistically, right,
and you saw him do what he does. But if
you're not playing well, of course, it's always going to
go back to those bad, optic moments, those questionable moments.
But you're giving them the fans, fanatics, as you put it,
that opportunity to point their finger and be like, see
(42:04):
it all goes back to that you're not your head's
not in the game, you're not taking as serious.
Speaker 3 (42:08):
If Scataboo.
Speaker 4 (42:11):
Re injures that ankle, or rehab takes longer, or he's
not one hundred percent when he comes back, it's gonna
go back to things like that. So why are you
giving people that sort of ammunition? Is my point.
Speaker 2 (42:23):
I just want people to remember that athletes are humans
and their lives are not one dimensional. I remember about
a year ago during the forty nine.
Speaker 3 (42:29):
Ers bye week. They're also young men, and young men
do stupid things sometimes.
Speaker 2 (42:32):
During the forty nine Ers bye week, George Kittle and
his wife were in a cabin chilling out, and there
were fans that are like, why are you chilling out
in a cabin during the bye week with your wife.
You look over the film and it's like, guys, you
need to have a well rounded life, and we'll we'll
take more of your phone calls and feedback. Next in
for the Great Dan Patrick Cavino and Rich Fox Sports Radio,
(42:52):

say it's happening, I mean the Lakers are coming together.
Lebron's healthy again, Lebron James.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
And you got Austin Reeves, the unassuming goofy white dude,
and you got Luca and they were saying, oh, it
is my odlyce.
Speaker 4 (03:09):
Related that I wouldn't say racist, racist has this negative
connotation to it.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
Related.
Speaker 2 (03:16):
Yeah, I'm a white guy. I'm allowed to say I'm
a goofy white guy. I'm allowed to say Austin Reeves
is one of me. Rich is the president, So I'm
the president of goofy white guy club. I'm trying to
recruit Austin Reeves for for years.
Speaker 5 (03:27):
I have a couple of friends who are goofy white guys.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
I sent them an application. He's like, I'm in, But
now the Lakers. Last night, Danny g you must have
been salivating over watching those.
Speaker 3 (03:36):
Three stars work together.
Speaker 2 (03:39):
They look dominant at times, and we talked about it
yesterday on our show. So let me just reiterate that
Austin Reeves gets not enough credit for what he's bringing
to the table.
Speaker 3 (03:50):
You know what I thought about last night, Danny.
Speaker 2 (03:51):
As a Niners fan, if you're new to coven On Rich,
we appreciate you hanging with us. And for Dan Patrick,
I'm a big forty nine Ers fan because Austin Reeves
was not drafted to because he's unassuming. There's a little
rock Purdy vibe with him, meaning like, oh shucks, Like
it takes a little more to impress people.
Speaker 4 (04:10):
It takes circus numbers. It takes for him to lead
the team and put up circus numbers to get the
credit that he's deserved for a minute. Now, he's playing
in Los Angeles, he's playing with superstars, he's playing big,
He's leading a team for the most part, he deserves
that superstar sort of recognition, like he should be a
(04:31):
household name, and unless you're a basketball fan, especially a
Lakers fan, you really don't know who he is, and
by now you should. In fact, his goofy sort of
attitude should also make him more of a star, but
it's not. However, I think when his name's in the
same sentence as Kobe as it was this week and
he starts climbing those Lakers' rankings, yeah he's gonna get
(04:54):
that recognition he deserves.
Speaker 3 (04:55):
But again, he had.
Speaker 4 (04:56):
To go above and beyond because of his unassuming ways,
I think to get that recognition. Just this week, Austin
Reeves is the second most twenty five point games by
a Laker guard since two thousand. Only Kobe had more.
So second to Kobe, that's unreal. He's in serious company.
He went five for nine from deep against the Bucks
(05:18):
and officially passed Caldwell Pope for seventh place on the Lakers'
all time three points list.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
So he's making three points left and right. He has.
Speaker 4 (05:27):
Five hundred and twenty three threes in two ninety one games.
That's before yesterday's game and yesterday numbers he lit it
up yesterday props him. Luca had thirty seven points. Reeves
had twenty six points and was leading for a while.
He had that four point play that Danny g got
all excited about Lebron James eleven points. But here's where
(05:48):
you were getting a rich I could see what's happening.
We didn't have a clue. I'm not sure the league
had a clue, because we're like, how was Lebron gonna
fit into this twelve dish in the ball around? And
I quote Danny g He's still doing his producer stuff
right now. I quote Danny G Man, it's look, he
was magic Johnson out, dude, go let's slow the magic Johnson.
(06:11):
Let's first of all, it don't sound anything like that.
Speaker 5 (06:14):
I said. He was dropping magic Johnson like passes.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Yo. Man, it was like Johnson.
Speaker 4 (06:19):
You know something about john All I heard was your
Johnson or Johnson or something.
Speaker 5 (06:23):
He what he turned into like a quarterback, a game
manager if you will.
Speaker 3 (06:27):
He really did. It really looked that way.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
And here's my most obvious we call this on the
CNR showgram an obvious servation. Here's my observation watching the game.
The most obvious one. It really looked for the first
time in forever.
Speaker 3 (06:44):
Okay, Elsa like Lebron James was having fun. It looked
like he was. I get it.
Speaker 4 (06:52):
It was his return excited, but there was a different
vibe and a different level of fun and excitement from
Lebron James. And that's fun and excitement you need to have,
I think to win in this league. When there was
too much pressure on Lebron, it wasn't fun and it
was all on him. If he's able to dish it
around like this, man, they're unstoppable. I've said it prisoner
(07:13):
of the moment, but I mean it. Let's go well.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
I love that phrase prisoner of the moment because I'm
gonna say a very prisoner of the moment type of thing.
They're eleven and four. They're not They're not like average.
The Lakers are good. But there's a team in the West.
You might have heard of them, the Oklahoma City Thunder,
who might lose like three games all year. They just
(07:36):
don't lose. Okaysee, just doesn't lose. Here's my question. If
Lebron's playing fun and we know the end is New Year,
and I do have the sentiment that when all said
and done. Lebron retires, I think we're gonna look back
at times and say, you know what, we were hard
on him. We didn't really appreciate him. The constant comparisons
to MJ and kobeing Yo. I know he said and
(07:58):
did it to himself with the whole not one, not two, three,
four five? Are we still hanging on to that Lebron
Miami Heath thin personainly?
Speaker 4 (08:06):
No, Rich I'm not a Lebron lover. I gotta make
that clear. I'm not a hater either, right. I respect
greatness and have admired his career. He kicked off season
twenty three. I believe he kicked it off with a
three right Danny g a sweet bucket to kick it off,
and that passes Vince Carter most all time twenty three seasons.
You know, when I see him with his Lebron Aham
(08:27):
Lincoln beard and it's getting a little gray, and he's
just rocking that thinned out sort of look. I'm looking
at him not with the same lens that I looked
at him before, not five, not six, not seven. I'm
looking at him now as a guy who has his
son in the league. He's having fun, he has the
(08:49):
ability to switch his game up. But he has this
this wisdom about him now and at least like even
that look in his face, like he looks older now.
And I don't know, man, I'm rooting for him in
a different away, like, yo, dude, have one, at least
one more great season and stick it to this OKAC team. Man,
they're young, but he's Lebron, and they have superstars. They've
(09:11):
got Luca, they've got Bronni off the bench, hit in threes.
Oh yop, don't don't, don't, don't be making it tell
like Bronny is like a contributor. That's a dope moment. No,
but even eight and had twenty points. I didn't even
bring that up. He had twenty points. If Lebron's able
to dish it around. They made some crazy passes last night, right.
I looked at him as a guy yesterday, to answer
your question, old Rich, not a guy that you wanted
(09:33):
to roll your eyes at. I looked at him as
a guy who we've seen grow up. In fact, we've
grown up with together, and he's getting older and I
can only root for that. I saw Lebron the man
last night, not LEBRONI attitude having basketball player Comano.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
You and I have been together a long time as
a radio you know, friendship and partnership. We saw Lebron
go from Cleveland to Miami to the Lakers, that we've
seen the journey, and I would say, run the boards.
I know we play that clip all the time, the
not three, not four, not five.
Speaker 3 (10:06):
Not two, not three, not four, not five?
Speaker 2 (10:11):
Are we still holding it against Lebron his one like
because it came across so arrogant and never really came
to fruition. They want a few in Miami. But I
look at Lebron now and dare I say, as the
season continues and Oklahoma City right now in Vegas is
a plus one seventy five to win the NBA Finals.
They are like like leaps and bounds above anyone else
(10:34):
as favorites to win back to back NBA titles. The
Lakers won two, three, four five, They're like they got
the six best odds at plus fourteen hundred. Could there
be a sentiment that the Lebron haters maybe change their
tune and it becomes the fun story, like yo, Lebron,
one more before it's all done?
Speaker 3 (10:54):
Like yes, could be a sentiment where if.
Speaker 4 (10:56):
He brings the energy and like he brought upon himself,
he shouldn't have to do that, but he does come
with that sense of not two, not three, not four,
sense of arrogance and and lebron and me bron and
things like that. If he plays with the same energy
and attitude that he had last night, it's contagious.
Speaker 3 (11:17):
It's likable.
Speaker 4 (11:18):
It's fun when when other people, I mean, it's just
I don't know if it's science, but it is. If
other people are having fun, you want to have fun
with him, and it's contagious.
Speaker 3 (11:30):
What's the theory, it's the Neil Strauss theory. Yeah, Danny J.
Speaker 2 (11:33):
Spot, I was Sam everyone listening all the dan Ats
and Dan Patrick audience. I remember back in the day,
there was like, remember like in the two thousands, it
was like a hot thing to like have these like
dating coaches. Not not people have dating coaches, but these
guys would write books about how to get the attention
to women. Like it's like corny stuff. But there was
one thing I remember thinking, all right, that's not corny,
(11:55):
that's true, and it was if you're at a bar
with your buddies and you guys are laughing and having fun.
Somehow women will infiltrate your group because you are having fun.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
When you're having fun and laughing, enjoying yourself.
Speaker 4 (12:09):
Like subconscious subconsciously is like, what's going on over there?
Speaker 3 (12:12):
What's so funny? What are these guys?
Speaker 2 (12:14):
You're to guess where everyone's eyes go, Camino besides the
hot booties. If you're in Vegas, everyone looks at the
craps table where everyone's high five.
Speaker 3 (12:24):
And and cheering, like, yeah, what's going on over there? Everyone's
having fun? I want to get in on that. We are.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
We gravitate towards fun and people really, you know, bringing
the vibe. And I think Lebron with his mean face
in Miami, like yeah, let's go, baby, pounding his chirs
not two, not three, not four. That's that's a young Lebron.
This is a end is near. I got some gray
in my beard, I got wisdom. I'm an old dude,
you know, like as you know, like he's looking more
(12:51):
like Morgan Freeman than like a young man. Now he's
Lebron's not young, And dude, I noticed that yesterday. Is
he an incredible shape? Absolutely? The guy's a specimen.
Speaker 4 (13:02):
That's not my point he's not out there hobbling around
like an old cream abdul Jabbar or something. This guy's
in great and incredible shape. But he doesn't have to
be that star anymore, and I think he's accepted that.
In fact, Danyg said that he made a gesture and
has sort of implied that maybe we get more out
of Lebron because he doesn't have to be everything for
(13:23):
everyone because he has other people to play around him. Danyg,
you said when he made a gesture, that's sort of
what he.
Speaker 5 (13:28):
Is conferring when he checked out of the game or
was checked out of the game by Reddick, and I'm
always gonna call it. Staple Center crowd gave him a
standing oh for his passing performance. Basically at the end
of the game, he kind of made a gesture like
this is what I'm gonna do now because he had
more assists than points.
Speaker 2 (13:48):
And you know what if he could unselfishly make that
his game, because that's an ego thing too, when you're
putting up twenty five to thirty your whole career.
Speaker 4 (13:59):
Yeah, he's still digits. I think that was the priority, right, Yeah,
you help me keep that going.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
Yeah, but I'm saying, if you could throw ten to
fifteen assistant there and maybe score eighteen or score twenty
or sixteen. If that's the Lebron game, we forget that
Magic Johnson wasn't scoring thirty points a game that's very
similar to Now I made funny when you compare him,
but that's a very similar to Magic Johnson type of
(14:25):
game when we were little kids, scoring points, but more
so being a leader out there. And if Lebron could
do that with a smile on his face, dare I
say that the public, well, all of a sudden, look
at Lebron as a face again, like you know how
John Cena just went from good guy to heel back
to good guy. Like maybe we see Lebron James go
back to good guy. Maybe Lebron James he won't be gassed.
(14:48):
It's not all on him. He's got people he could
dish it too.
Speaker 4 (14:50):
And when I say dish it, we're talking like Globe
trotter Magic Johnson. Like passes last night. If you didn't
see it because it was a late game on the
West coast, across the court, he made a sweet pass
across the court. Again, I even said it, but Bronni
did get in there, hit a nice three point shot.
You see him fire it up about that. It was
a really fun vibe. We're just telling you it's his return.
(15:12):
It was a different Lebron last night. It really really was. Again,
it's one game, and it was the Jazz, the five
and what are they five and nine? The five and
nine Jazz.
Speaker 5 (15:20):
They have a young team, but you saw him at
the start of the game. They had a double digit
lead over the Lakers, and I think all Laker fans
watching and basketball fans watching around the world were like, ah,
look at Lebron's gonna clog things up here we go.
The chemistry is not gonna match here. But quickly they
figured it out. By the third quarter, they were all
clicking together. To go back to Rich's point about the
(15:41):
thunder though, Rich, I know you loved to schedule watch. Yeah,
let's look at February ninth.
Speaker 1 (15:48):
That is, Rich loves to look at the schedule, schedule watching.
Speaker 3 (15:54):
Yeah, Oh I love looking at the schedule. Danny, please
take over.
Speaker 5 (15:57):
Let's hear this the day after the Super Bowl, so
two things to look forward to that Sunday and then Monday,
February ninth, the Lakers host the Thunder. All right, That's
that's the real test here, because obviously we're at the
very early stages of the NBA season. The Lakers just
got blown out by the Thunder and they bounced back
with a couple of dub three now double digit wins
(16:18):
after that. But they have to do this against a
team like the Thunder and if they can't.
Speaker 2 (16:24):
A couple months, a couple months together with this crew
now to really gel and say, all right, February puts,
that's just a date you marked out on the calendar,
the Monday after Super Bowl Sunday. Where are the Lakers?
If healthy, how do they match up against Okac and Cavino.
You know, we talk about fatigue in sports. We got
it with the Chiefs, like people are, oh my god,
I'm so sick of Tailor and Travis and Mahomes and
(16:45):
Andy Reid and that.
Speaker 3 (16:47):
You know, we talked about that.
Speaker 4 (16:48):
When it came to MVP and Aaron Judge not getting
the award, people had Aaron Judge fatigue. It's like, well,
guess what, he still deserves the award. I don't care
if you're sick of them or not. And you know,
the Dodgers as likable as they are. There was a
sense of like most people were like, come on, Blue Jays.
Speaker 3 (17:08):
You know.
Speaker 2 (17:09):
I think that people really don't want to see the
Okay City, the Oka say Thunder win.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
I really don't. I don't think Okay See, you got
to think like gangster Okay, Okay, she there is.
Speaker 2 (17:29):
I don't think the thunder is like this fan favorite,
like yo, we want to see this be a dynasty.
I could be wrong, but they don't got the you
know when when when all the other dynasties did it,
whether it's Golden State.
Speaker 3 (17:42):
Or you know, the Bulls.
Speaker 2 (17:43):
When we were kids, or the Lakers or Celtics, like
there was there was a little something more no offense to.
Speaker 3 (17:50):
S g A.
Speaker 2 (17:51):
I don't think any anyone's like, man, I really want
to see this team run it back a bunch of times.
I think the Lakers if they faced off against Okay
See on the road, I'm way looking ahead. I do
think there's a sentiment that even though the Lakers are
this legendary franchise, I think people would be rooting for
the Lakers.
Speaker 3 (18:09):
I really do. I think that'd be.
Speaker 2 (18:10):
Lebron winning one more is way more appealing than Oka SA.
Speaker 4 (18:15):
Great for basketball. It just is, you know, it's it's
been overseted.
Speaker 3 (18:19):
But it's true.
Speaker 4 (18:20):
When the Lakers are good, the NBA is more exciting,
it's better. There's so many franchises in sports like that.
Lakers are definitely one of them. And you know, we
saw a different side. We're not swinging if you're new
to the Coveno on Rich show, we're not swinging from
the Magic Johnson. We're just James. We're just telling you
what we saw last night. And even the criticism he
(18:44):
handled with a smile and a smirk and fun. And
it was, like I said, it was noticeable. That's why
we're pointing at pointing it out. People were asking reporters
were asking him, Yeah, how'd you feel about people questioning
how you'd fit in with the chemistry of the team,
And like he laughed about it. He's like, come on, man,
I could I could win with anybody. He goes, why
is that even a question? And he proved it. He
(19:07):
proved it yesterday in a big way. If they're able
to keep that up, there's no reason why they shouldn't.
The Lakers are back in the conversation again, even more so,
I should say, because there was question of how's Lebron gonna?
We questioned it, how long does it take till they
build that chemistry? One night yesterday we saw it. The
Lakers win one six, And the side question besides Lebron's
(19:31):
return is why isn't Austin Reeves a bigger star? Well,
he's bound to be, He's gonna be, he already should be.
Think about it and we'll talk some Skataboo and think
about this. Do you expect all your athletes, all your
heroes to be robots? Do you expect them to be
sports robots? Or do you like to see the human
side of your favorite athletes? Because there's the Camp Scataboo story.
(19:53):
We gotta tell you there is, and I'm gonna tell
you why fans are more ridiculous than ever before. Uh,
this cam Scataboo story makes me want to strangle all
the people that are getting down on this guy because
he did something involving the WWE.
Speaker 3 (20:07):
And there's people mad about it, like what are we
doing here? What are we doing? We'll get to that
and a bunch more next.

Rich Davis super pumped about the Lakers. You know we're
not even well, I guess if we have any teams
the Lakers, but it's just about Lebron's return and Reeves
looking like a superstar.
Speaker 3 (22:16):
Danny G's super pumped. He's the resident Laker fan here.
Speaker 5 (22:20):
You guys went through that whole first segment, by the way,
without even mentioning Luca.
Speaker 4 (22:24):
Actually I mentioned he had thirty seven points, but that
really was it.
Speaker 3 (22:29):
It was.
Speaker 4 (22:29):
It was about no, no, no, no, no, not the points.
Meaning that's the only time we brought him up. Yeah,
because Lebron was just putting on a show. It really
was all about him, and we shouldn't have been surprised
that he's able to get in there and dish it
around and play with anybody. It's just a matter of
is he willing to be a different type of player,
like the certain players that are able to change their
(22:53):
game and other players that refuse to. It's like a
power pitcher, right, how many power pitchers were just really
right on the fastball for the rest of their career
until they couldn't play anymore. And then some went crafty
and decided to switch it up and changed her game
and work on the curveball, work on the on the split,
split ball, the splitter, you know, split ball, the.
Speaker 3 (23:18):
Special pitch.
Speaker 4 (23:18):
Yeah, you know, it gives him more longevity. Yeah, if
Lebron's able to switch his game up like that, he
gets more longevity the old split ball.
Speaker 3 (23:27):
No. I always think of Pedro Martinez.
Speaker 5 (23:29):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Based on what you're saying, like, if Lebron could adjust
his game Pedro for the Red Sox early on, you
know guys, a lanky, five ten dude throwing heat over
overpowering people. Then if you look at the end of
Pedro's career, you could say that about some of those
Atlanta Braves pitchers in the nineties, when you're able to
adjust and say, all right, well, I'm not going to
(23:50):
overpower people anymore. Let me work on my cutter, let
me work on my my secondary pitches.
Speaker 3 (23:56):
You just gonna have a longer career.
Speaker 2 (23:57):
And if Lebron's like, no, I don't pass the ball,
he'd be a detriment. The fact that Lebron has those
ball handling skills, that's what you said. His you know,
worth is so much more, especially when you got scorers
like Luca and you have Austin Reeves who is proving
to be Would you argue all star level is Austin
(24:19):
Reeves an all Star level player?
Speaker 3 (24:21):
Yesterday? No doubt? Yeah dude, we said it yesterday.
Speaker 2 (24:23):
The Twitter x feedback we got and some of the
stuff on like Instagram and TikTok, people like you guys
think he's.
Speaker 3 (24:29):
An All Star. You're on drugs, NA, Danny G.
Speaker 4 (24:32):
You would agree he's an All Star, right, he doesn't
look like an All Star.
Speaker 5 (24:36):
Yes, so far, He's got to keep up this level
of play and be one of the leaders of the team.
We talked about that yesterday, not just take a back
seat to Luca and Lebron, but also now they got
shooters like La Ravia, They got a couple of bigs.
You even saw Jackson Hayes get in the mix yesterday.
So that bench is going to have to stay hot
and healthy throughout the season for the Lakers to climb
(24:58):
over the OKC thunder.
Speaker 2 (25:00):
Yeah, you know what, shame on me, because what did
I say a month ago, Cavino on our afternoon show,
I said I was gonna deny the NBA until Christmas
because I was so invested in the NFL and when
the baseball playoffs are going on, and here I am,
I'm like, I'm starting to get sucked in early, which
means we said it before. We're going through a sports
renaissance right now. I know that sounds way I feel
(25:22):
like I'm saying something way over exaggerating, but baseball was popping.
Baseball was insane this year. The NFL, the parody is unbelievable.
We don't know who's good who's bad week to week.
One week bo Nick stinks and next week might be.
Speaker 4 (25:38):
The teams just sort of ridiculous at this point, but
it has us interested for sure, like what is it? Yeah,
then you're like, wait a minute, can the Patriots be
back to their glory or or they have?
Speaker 3 (25:48):
They played no One?
Speaker 2 (25:49):
There's a million stories and then here's the NBA, and
you got some great storylines as well. So the only
thing bumming me out about the NBA, and you could
say the same about the NFL. It goes with my
conspiracy theory that human bodies are not designed to play
at the speed and the strength that sports are being
(26:10):
played now. Because what is the only thing hurting the
NBA and the NFL right now?
Speaker 3 (26:14):
Turf toe injuries injuries? Turf toes injuries.
Speaker 2 (26:18):
Think about it, Wemby Yannis in football, how many wide
receivers have we lost?
Speaker 3 (26:22):
And you know guys that are sidelined.
Speaker 2 (26:25):
The game is being played so fast, the game is
being played by dudes that are faster and stronger than
ever before. So the only the only bad thing about
sports right now. I think people are too big and strong.
And that's it really all right? Fine, eight seven, seven
ninety nine on Fox. That's our number.
Speaker 4 (26:44):
You could also see us live participate live live chat,
Get involved Covino and Rich FSR on YouTube, CoV I
and O Covino and Rich FSR join us and remember
giving away prizes. We got Mike's Wednesday words of Wisdom
got Midweek Major. During the show the biggest stories in
sports and pop culture, we decide if the stories are
(27:05):
mid as the kiddos say, week or major. We do
it every Wednesday on our show five to seven on
the East, two to four on the West. But we're
in for the great Dan Patrick. So any final thoughts
right now? We'll touch on it again about Lebron or
Reeves or Luca. They played an exciting game. It was
it was a late game. Maybe you missed it. You
(27:26):
probably saw the highlights. You gotta take our word for it,
because man, it was electric.
Speaker 5 (27:31):
What up, Danny G I know Lebron wakes up to
a five seventy in Los Angeles, so he's listening to
you guys right now. Noise all right, So Hi Lebron,
good morning, But I won't mince words. His ego is large.
We know this. Can he put this aside full time
this season? Because after the game, he and coach Reddick
were both talking about how he's just getting his win
(27:53):
back in the debut, he's getting his feet back underneath
of him. Does that imply at all to you guys
that he feels like he's gonna go back to forcing
things maybe and taking over as the man.
Speaker 3 (28:05):
Dude?
Speaker 4 (28:06):
That was just the perfect pocket of what you need
from this guy. Eleven points twelve assists right there, improve
on that. We don't need him. You don't need him
scoring thirty seven points. You don't need him being Luca,
you don't need him being Reeves. Let those guys shine.
You've been in the league forever. I think it's more
impressive to see this side of Lebron at this stage
(28:26):
of his career. If he's willing to put that ego aside,
that's the key ingredient. That's the magic sauce, that's the
secret sauce you need to win. I think so if
he's able to do that, I think that's the that's
the question. But the answer is if he is, they're
gonna be a team in the playoffs for sure.
Speaker 3 (28:44):
Are you saying that Lebron listens to Dan Patrick in
LA every morning?
Speaker 5 (28:48):
One?
Speaker 2 (28:50):
But that's the austments we were talking about. My answer
is Lebron's perfect.
Speaker 3 (28:55):
They could do no run no yea, I'm kissing a
little ass. Why are you kissing lake yourrass?
Speaker 2 (29:03):
So Coavino, let me shive gears to football if you
don't mind. I talked about all those injuries in the NBA,
in the NFL. It's the only downfall of sports right now,
all the injuries to key players. Besides that, all the
all the major sports are more exciting than ever before.
I really feel that way, and I don't want to
sound like the host of a game show the best
(29:24):
season ever.
Speaker 4 (29:25):
I really do think things are great right now. Yeah,
that Jesse Palmer is full of bs. This is not
the best season of the Bachelor ever?
Speaker 3 (29:32):
Was he talking about? Says that every season?
Speaker 2 (29:35):
So camp scataboo scataboo, which just sounds like a made
up word from Adam Sandler.
Speaker 3 (29:44):
Scatterbo.
Speaker 2 (29:48):
But camp scataboo, I mean, we're talking about a guy
that was electrifying and fun in college. And then we wondered, hey,
is it going to translate to the NFL. You know
a lot of teams. I was like, well, we wanted him,
but hey, Giants picked him up. And I'll give you
the answer. It translated. The guy plays with heart, plays
with intensity. He's such a bro. He's cut from them,
(30:10):
Gronkowski cloth, he's head buttoned, Jackson Dart, everyone's injured now
and I got a major problem.
Speaker 3 (30:17):
I always think of that picture though, with them posing
in the end zone.
Speaker 4 (30:20):
You know what you're I'm talking about, right, yeah, like
two It's like, yeah, like they're gangsters, so funny man.
Speaker 3 (30:27):
Yeah. The energy he brought was was again contagious. It
was great. I love that he was doing before he
got hurt.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
I think because of Camp Skataboo and because of Jackson Dart,
I think if you are one of the people hoping
to get that coaching vacancy, hey yeah, maybe maybe interim
coach ends up with it. But I think the Giants'
head coaching positions a hot a hot seat right now
that you would want to be in because I think
(30:55):
that team really is on the upward trajectory. Went healthy
next year. Next year should be a fun year for
Giant fans. But right now, there's a lot of people
giving camp scataboo. Is it flack or slack Camino. Slack
is what people use at the office, right, Ah, that
thing that I always ignored, Like, I'm not doing that. Yeah,
I'll send it to you on slack. I'm like, how
(31:15):
about you beat it? How about no, I'm not kidding that.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Can you text me? I don't do that, don't teams? Yeah? No, thanks, Yeah,
flack would be the answer to you.
Speaker 2 (31:24):
So they're giving him flag because he was at Madison
Square Garden with some teammates and comedian Andrew Schultz was
there too, and they got a little shoving match with
the judgment day in Camp Scataboo's just having fun.
Speaker 3 (31:39):
I mean he's in the front row. The crowd goes nuts.
Speaker 2 (31:42):
They write him into Monday Night Raw and Scataboo, who's
such a broie, fun type of dude, gets into it
a little bit, a little tussle at Monday Night Raw,
and of course Bozo fans seem to have a problem
with this so much so the camp scout how to
release a statement. This is what he wrote on x
(32:05):
He honestly, if you don't like him having a good
time while dealing with a tough time. They just go
ahead and unfollow and casually move on. I'm not able
to play football and have the fun I've been having
my whole life, So I'm just trying to do things
outside the box to keep me happy, enjoy the rest
(32:26):
of the all's week, and just don't talk about me.
Speaker 4 (32:28):
If he ain't gonna say anything nice, he really is
kept from then cloth huh.
Speaker 2 (32:33):
But I'm team Scataboo on this because if you don't
think he wants to be on the football field, you're
on drugs.
Speaker 3 (32:42):
If you don't think this guy wants to be out there,
everybody cares more than him.
Speaker 2 (32:45):
Yeah you're you care? You think you care more than
Cam Scattaboo, You bird brain. This guy wants to be
out there. He wants to be competing, So he has
a seasoning ending injury. He's got his Dots boot on,
He's got his boot on his foot. There's nothing he
could do. What do fans want? Do fans want him
to sit home and cry and mope and act like
(33:08):
a little beat or do you want this guy to
try to find joy in other parts of his life?
We have this weird reality as fans that we think
players should be so one dimensional that, hey, man, if
camp Scataboo is not thinking and breathing and living football.
Speaker 3 (33:24):
Then he's not focused. What the f do you want
from this guy?
Speaker 4 (33:30):
I like the boot as a wrestling prop, kind of
like Bobby the Brain had the neck brace, Cowboy Bob
Barton Orton had the cast. Scataboo has the boot. He'll
drop the big boot on you. You know what, rich
I hate to say it, but I see both sides
to this, I really do. And I could tell you
(33:51):
what you got back Skataboo, But remember he's recovering from
an injury, and sometimes guys like him are their own
worst enemy. You already said he's a bonehead, right, So
sometimes guys like that need some coaching and need some
guidance and need to be slapped on the head and say, hey, dude,
you're recovering from a severe ankle injury. We all saw it.
(34:11):
It happened not that long ago, in fact, October twenty
sixth I believe it was. It was late October. This happened.
Maybe you shouldn't be doing that optics. Optically, it's not good.
It's not a good look. You know, if he were
to reaggravate it and it had nothing to do with wrestling.
People are still going to go back to that moment,
so you do have to be careful. October twenty eighth
(34:35):
is when he injured his ankle. That's so that's pretty
soon to be out there on Monday Night Raw. So
I could see why fans are I don't think they're
they're concerned, man, they're concerned fans like, hey, should he
be doing that?
Speaker 2 (34:49):
He wasn't in the ring, he didn't walk down, he
didn't walk down the aisle coming home. The oil come scatable,
and he's in a credit pretend. We need to, you know,
make that here too. You know, maybe maybe a lot
of people think that wrestling's real. Still let me let
me tell you him shoving a wrestler and having some fun,
getting the Madison Square Garden, New York crowd riled up.
(35:12):
I think anyone that has a problem with this is
a real Acidi'm buffoon.
Speaker 3 (35:16):
And you know what, you know, who's guilty?
Speaker 2 (35:18):
People like you and your girlfriend? Whoa, Oh, I'm going
I'm going after you, bro.
Speaker 5 (35:24):
Whoa?
Speaker 3 (35:25):
You know what?
Speaker 2 (35:26):
Covino's girlfriend said something and I hope you don't take
too much offense. But wow, I'm gonna let you know
what it is next, and it has to do with
people like you and your girlfriend that have problems with
athletes doing anything other than sports. Get a grip. We'll
talk about that. We'll talk some more NBA, NFL, and
also Cavino. We got midweek major coming up. We're gonna
(35:49):
give away some prizes. So all right here in for
the great Dan Patrick and Honor to fill in here
on Cavino and Rich.

Speaker 3 (36:14):
We did this hour away. We got to call it
as we see it.
Speaker 4 (36:19):

see it, but we see it. And it just sucks
when you guys take a screenshot of it and post
it everywhere. Not that I'm telling you to do that,
but sure, really nice, bro, Thanks so skytbo.
Speaker 3 (37:47):
Got Scataboo was on Monday Night Raw. That's the story.
Speaker 4 (37:50):
He's getting criticized by fans like, yo, bro, hey, chill out.
This just happened October twenty eighth. You hat an ankle injury.
You're rehabbing. Should you be out there putting all that
pressure on your ankle?
Speaker 3 (38:04):
I'm sure he's not giving. He wasn't giving souplexes in
the ring. He wasn't.
Speaker 2 (38:08):
He wasn't giving anyone the stole cold stunner. The dude
was in the front row. Did we not speaking of
the Giants back in the Was it the who was it?
Speaker 1 (38:19):
Uh?
Speaker 3 (38:20):
What? What team was it? It was the Giants when
they were on the boat.
Speaker 4 (38:24):
Yeah, But was was it Odell Beckham Junior and Victor
uh Victor Cruz right dancing when they were salsa dancing
on the boat.
Speaker 3 (38:34):
Yeah, it was no big deal.
Speaker 4 (38:35):
But didn't we say, ah, maybe it's not a good
look before a big game. You think it's a good
look when he's rehabbing and everyone was so heartbroken over this,
it's just not giants.
Speaker 2 (38:48):
Giants are parting on a boat. Then they go on
to get crushed in the playoffs. That's way different because
they were mentally, you know, incapable of partying and winning
a big game the next week.
Speaker 3 (39:00):
MP Scataboo is not playing the rest of the year.
Speaker 2 (39:01):
Hey, camp Scataboo, see you in August, see you, you know,
week one of the NFL next year.
Speaker 3 (39:07):
Why are we caring about what he does now?
Speaker 2 (39:09):
If he's bringing himself joy, if you know, if you're
just joining us, Camp Scataboo getting a lot of crap
to the point where he had to come out and say, hey, guys, uh,
you know, if you don't like that I'm having a
good time while I'm dealing with this tough time, then
go ahead and unfollow and casually move along. I'm not
able to play football and have the fun I've been
having my whole life, So I'm just trying to find
(39:29):
things to keep me happy, enjoy the rest of the year.
Week and if you're not gonna say anything nice, you like,
essentially beat it. And I'm teams Scataboo on this because
people and fans are delusional maniacs. I think athletes should
only live a one dimensional life like camp Scatabu should
be sitting in his bedroom crying in his ass soup
(39:49):
until he's healthy to play again next year, and guys
like you were just as guilty.
Speaker 4 (39:53):
Well, I look at these guys and I realize how
much they're paid and there's sort of admired by millions
of people as physical specimens. That's their job. You want
them to be solely focused. If we as fans feel
we're more invested than the actual players, sometimes that is
a problem.
Speaker 3 (40:11):
We never want to feel like we care more.
Speaker 4 (40:13):
That's why fans don't like it when after a loss
you see people playing slapass with the opposing team, and
when opponents are buddy chummy it rubs us the wrong
way is because fans are invested. So if fans managers
are invested in these guys as actual investments, yeah, we
want them to have those same priorities and take it easy,
(40:34):
take it.
Speaker 3 (40:34):
Slow, man.
Speaker 4 (40:35):
You have this illusion, and it might not be an
accurate or fair one, but that their sole focused should
be on the game.
Speaker 2 (40:41):
The scalvey here that I'm pointing out on the on
the YouTube page.
Speaker 3 (40:46):
On behalf of pretty much everybody that feels that way.
Speaker 2 (40:50):
Fan short for fanatic, which isn't necessarily like a complimentary
word fanatic, like you expect these guys to do nothing.
I heard Cavino's girlfriend, and I don't want to talk
badly about the woman you love, that's my woman, But
I heard your girlfriend about I don't know, three weeks ago.
(41:14):
She was bitching and complaining, not just to you, because
I'm sure that's what she does as well, but she
has Josh Allen on her fantasy team.
Speaker 3 (41:22):
And I saw her on.
Speaker 2 (41:23):
Social media mad that Josh Allen was dressing up at
a Halloween party with Hallie Steinfeldt, because why was She'd
he go dress up?
Speaker 3 (41:31):
But he wasn't playing that great? Well, you know what,
you just nailed it. I get it. This is before
he had a big game last week, right, Don't.
Speaker 5 (41:38):
Tell me that she had him on the bench this
past week.
Speaker 3 (41:40):
No, No, last week. He had a great week.
Speaker 4 (41:42):
It was a bit of a comeback week for him, statistically, right,
and you saw him do what he does. But if
you're not playing well, of course, it's always going to
go back to those bad, optic moments, those questionable moments.
But you're giving them the fans, fanatics, as you put it,
that opportunity to point their finger and be like, see
(42:04):
it all goes back to that you're not your head's
not in the game, you're not taking as serious.
Speaker 3 (42:08):
If Scataboo.
Speaker 4 (42:11):
Re injures that ankle, or rehab takes longer, or he's
not one hundred percent when he comes back, it's gonna
go back to things like that. So why are you
giving people that sort of ammunition? Is my point.
Speaker 2 (42:23):
I just want people to remember that athletes are humans
and their lives are not one dimensional. I remember about
a year ago during the forty nine.
Speaker 3 (42:29):
Ers bye week. They're also young men, and young men
do stupid things sometimes.
Speaker 2 (42:32):
During the forty nine Ers bye week, George Kittle and
his wife were in a cabin chilling out, and there
were fans that are like, why are you chilling out
in a cabin during the bye week with your wife.
You look over the film and it's like, guys, you
need to have a well rounded life, and we'll we'll
take more of your phone calls and feedback. Next in

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
