Speaker 2: to win some prizes, stick around, fun game. We're going
Speaker 2: at it right here on the Cavino and Rich Show.
Speaker 2: Now before we get back to Isaiah Thomas, because I
Speaker 2: got thoughts on this guy. Our buddy Jay Stu, producer
Speaker 2: of The Doug Gottlieb Show, hit us up. Based on
Speaker 2: Last Hour. We talked about the idea of everyone just
Speaker 2: relying too much on their phone, and it was a
Speaker 2: really fun conversation. If you missed it, it'll be on
Speaker 2: the podcast later. It's based on the Masters and everything
Speaker 2: we saw over the weekend. Everybody engaged. When you see
Speaker 2: people fully in the moment instead of everyone having their
Speaker 2: phone out. He reminded me of a tweet from a
Speaker 2: couple of years ago that he put out there, which
Speaker 2: is in a sea of phones, look at this one guy.
Speaker 2: It's a Lakers game and Lebron's taking a big shot
Speaker 2: and everyone's got their phone aut except one old guy
Speaker 2: in the front row who's just watching. And you envy him.
Speaker 2: There's like a sense of like he doesn't care.
Speaker 3: He's in the moment. I feel like that was the
Speaker 3: founder of Nike. If I'm not mistaken, Phil Knight. Isn't
Speaker 3: that the famous Phil Knight? Wasn't that when Lebron was
Speaker 3: gonna break the scoring record?
Speaker 4: Just like I've seen it all, I didn't see to
Speaker 4: watch this with my own eyes, rich thought it was
Speaker 4: Leslie Nielsen.
Speaker 2: Wait, does not Phil Donahue.
Speaker 3: Leslie's been departed for a while now.
Speaker 2: Richard saw some dude with white hair. Wait, wait a minute,
Speaker 2: By the way, you just need the two best guys
Speaker 2: with white hair. I think ever Leslie Nielsen and Phil
Speaker 2: donaho he had the same Coop Phillips, Steve Phillips, former GM.
Speaker 2: He's got a coff so good white hair right there.
Speaker 2: Isaiah Thomas spoke on behalf of Lebron spoke out on
Speaker 2: Lebron over the weekend. Again, everyone's excited about the new Lebron.
Speaker 2: James Barbie Doll, A lot of people talking about bronni
Speaker 2: James starting over the weekend scored four points dneg What
Speaker 2: were your thoughts on that?
Speaker 3: That was cool to see the I was gonna say
Speaker 3: the word scrubs. Oops. It was nice to see the
Speaker 3: bench warmers get to play in that final meaningless game
Speaker 3: against the Blazer.
Speaker 2: Can't you remember any better than scrub I don't know,
Speaker 2: some old mamba shoes if you saw that. And then
Speaker 2: the one.
Speaker 3: Vet Mark Keith got to have some playing time, probably
Speaker 3: the best vet in all of the NBA.
Speaker 2: But Isaiah Thomas was talking about how strange it was
Speaker 2: to see Lebron James warming up with no shirt on,
Speaker 2: just no shirt on out there and some sweatpants taking
Speaker 2: shots breaking the sweat Here's what he said on NBA TV.
Speaker 5: I just totally one hundred percent object to this, and
Speaker 5: it was a gm of Coochy Drew. I would never
Speaker 5: let one of my players walk out on the floor
Speaker 5: looking like this. I mean, we are professional an be
Speaker 5: a league.
Speaker 2: We ain't.
Speaker 5: We ain't summer league.
Speaker 2: We ain't. We ain't you know at the y m
Speaker 2: c A.
Speaker 5: I think coaches got to go back to suits relutely,
Speaker 5: you know. I just I just think, I just I
Speaker 5: just think the professionalism and all NB A league has
Speaker 5: diminished so much. And and I look, I like Lebron,
Speaker 5: I'm a fan of here and so forth and so on,
Speaker 5: but to walk out on the floor before a game
Speaker 5: with no shirt on and shoot, I mean, come on, man,
Speaker 5: this where we at, what we're doing, where we at now?
Speaker 5: If you want to Adam Silva, if you want to
Speaker 5: find somebody.
Speaker 2: Time that and if you look through all the comments,
Speaker 2: because it was a viral clip over the weekend, very
Speaker 2: polarizing discussion and a lot of flak for Isaiah Thomas
Speaker 2: us like professionalism. This guy is talking about professionalism. Guy
Speaker 2: who tried to take Jordan out. You know, a lot
Speaker 2: of people coming at him because of his sentiment his
Speaker 2: comments here. But in a way I really agree with him.
Speaker 3: I do.
Speaker 2: Can you mad about it? That's the thing. It's Lebron James.
Speaker 2: He's sort of earned a right. But Lebron James also
Speaker 2: leads by example. So if it wasn't Lebron James, you're
Speaker 2: still okay with it, That's what I mean, not as
Speaker 2: not as much, but you know what, I really don't care.
Speaker 2: And Lebron's ripped. I think that matters. Also, no one
Speaker 2: else to see if fatso with their shirt off.
Speaker 6: But.
Speaker 2: Read by example, and yeah, he's earned the like he's
Speaker 2: earned the pass where you don't want to like be
Speaker 2: so knowing. No one complains when someone that's good lookings
Speaker 2: half naked. Now if it was a you know, but
Speaker 2: he's trying to go. If it was, you could be
Speaker 2: mad all you want. We've gotten way too cavalier and
Speaker 2: way too casual here as a society, and I think
Speaker 2: a lot of that has to do with, well, what's
Speaker 2: what's in style? Unfortunately crocs and pajama pants and and
Speaker 2: also COVID and people working from home and sweatpants. Like,
Speaker 2: we've gotten way too casual where we're losing a little
Speaker 2: sense of professionalism. And we never saw Michael Jordan no
Speaker 2: shirt on on the court like that at the playground.
Speaker 2: Sure the why sure a rec league, sure, summer league,
Speaker 2: G league, whatever, the NBA. You should have a sense
Speaker 2: of professionalism. Why is that a bad thing? Why are
Speaker 2: you the first guy to always say, well, let me finish.
Speaker 2: It's a bunch of bonehead fans with beer helmets and
Speaker 2: tank tops. Yet we have to act like this is
Speaker 2: like super official. It's a kid's game that adults are
Speaker 2: getting paid to play because they're supposed to be the elite,
Speaker 2: and they are supposed to lead by example, and there's
Speaker 2: an expectation of professionalism in the NBA. You know, I
Speaker 2: think where Isaiah Isaiah Thomas loses you is when he's
Speaker 2: talking about professionalism and you know his past is a
Speaker 2: little questionable, but how angry he sounds in that clip.
Speaker 2: He's he's you hear him banging on the desk and
Speaker 2: he's all mad. And I think that's where he loses you,
Speaker 2: because otherwise I agree, it's not the YMCA, it's the NBA.
Speaker 2: Put a shirt on, so Lebron James. I'm not mad
Speaker 2: about it, but I do agree with him. I gotta
Speaker 2: make that clear. I do agree with him. You know,
Speaker 2: there's so many times, too rich where we call you out.
Speaker 2: You're at Fox Sports Radio, and I mean, you look
Speaker 2: handsome today, but you come in wearing flip flops or sweatpants.
Speaker 2: I'm like, dude, no one's gonna respect you looking like that.
Speaker 2: Lebron Change is the leader in the locker room, no
Speaker 2: shirt on the court. What the whole team's gonna start
Speaker 2: doing that now? I don't think that's a good look
Speaker 2: for professional basketball. Let's go to your feedback. I think
Speaker 2: Isaiah Thomas just trying to get someone to care about
Speaker 2: what he's saying there. He just sounds mad, and I
Speaker 2: think that's what rub people the wrong way. Again, I
Speaker 2: will make the point it might sound rude, but I
Speaker 2: don't think it is. It depends on what you look like.
Speaker 2: It really does like, well, unfortunately that's not gonna matter.
Speaker 2: But guess why I don't go around shirtless not chos as.
Speaker 2: Guess what, as much as I feel like I'm in
Speaker 2: pretty good shape, you get a little bit of a
Speaker 2: dad bod going. So I am not rocking the shirtless look.
Speaker 2: But I have a buddy who's ripped. That guy's wanting
Speaker 2: to take his shirt. You ever have that friend who's
Speaker 2: like itching for the moment to take a shirt of
Speaker 2: time and place, Dude, it's like a hot girl. I'm
Speaker 2: all for her showing off the hard work she's put in.
Speaker 2: Care about Lebron's shirtless shooting three pointers and warm ups?
Speaker 2: It's not about that. It's about professionalism.
Speaker 3: When you get made into a doll, you no longer
Speaker 3: care about these things.
Speaker 2: I know, right, He's like, I would do.
Speaker 3: Whatever I want because I am now a ken doll.
Speaker 2: Dude. He's the equivalent of Barbie bro Rick and Tennessee
Speaker 2: what's something man?
Speaker 7: Well on that whole Isaiah Thomas saying, I thought of
Speaker 7: a stand up. I thought he's doing a stand up because,
Speaker 7: first of all, from what I understood, Lebron was the
Speaker 7: only one on the court. There wasn't people in there yet,
Speaker 7: and he was just kind of hearing with some warm
Speaker 7: up shots. I'm that's what I heard, So who saw it?
Speaker 7: And secondly, I do love when he goes we're professionals,
Speaker 7: We're NBA professionals. I've been a coach, I've been an
Speaker 7: NBA I've been a GM and then he starts his
Speaker 7: grammar goes to hell in a handbag. Dude, why don't
Speaker 7: you learn to speak if you're a professional, right, because
Speaker 7: I don't respect Tennisty talks like that.
Speaker 2: I just think it's a slippery slope. That's all my
Speaker 2: man at Lebron hell no, And if anyone's earned it,
Speaker 2: it's him putting the work in. Fine. I just think
Speaker 2: it is a slippery slope because then you're gonna have
Speaker 2: everybody out there doing that and there it is the NBA.
Speaker 2: It is the NBA, and you do want to create
Speaker 2: this at least sense of professionalism. Rich That's all, no doubt.
Speaker 2: So between that and the doll lebron in the news
Speaker 2: and you brought up Bronnie. I had one question about
Speaker 2: Ronnie James. He got the start yesterday, What do you
Speaker 2: play like thirty four minutes we were at the baseball game,
Speaker 2: but you know, we saw that and we're like, oh cool.
Speaker 2: I got to ask four points, correct me if I'm wrong,
Speaker 2: as often I am. You know, Bronnie James getting his
Speaker 2: first start, So was that the first time Danny g
Speaker 2: that he got the star studed like announcement like and
Speaker 2: now you're starting lineup, So that must have been a
Speaker 2: cool moment for Bronnie James, Like coming off the bench
Speaker 2: clearly is a big deal and he's Bronnie James and
Speaker 2: his debut with dad was national international news, all eyes
Speaker 2: on Bronnie. We get it. But was that the first
Speaker 2: time where lights down arena and now the starting lineup?
Speaker 2: That was the first time he got that shine. So
Speaker 2: I'm sure that was a cool moment for him. Person
Speaker 2: Oh very cool. Yeah, I know it was cool. The
Speaker 2: bench always rooting for him to do well, So no
Speaker 2: hate there, but it all eats to again the playoff
Speaker 2: picture that we're really excited for and have to admit
Speaker 2: root for the Lakers will be I'm rooting for great games.
Speaker 2: I've been in Los Angeles for about seventeen years now,
Speaker 2: the loving his Lakers all the time. Definitely not hating
Speaker 2: on the lake.
Speaker 3: Did you see that stat that the Lakers and Kings
Speaker 3: in hockey our top four seeds in their conference and
Speaker 3: will host game one playoff games in the same building
Speaker 3: in the same season for the first time since nineteen
Speaker 3: ninety one.
Speaker 2: How is that possible with the success of both of
Speaker 2: those franchises. That's wild.
Speaker 3: They zigzag with the seasons they're successful.
Speaker 2: So I'm assuming could we know that means you're not
Speaker 2: kissing ass as your dad would say, because the Lakers
Speaker 2: are playing the Tea Wolves and who's a big t
Speaker 2: Wolf fan? Our boss is a super Yeah. No, definitely
Speaker 2: not kissing ass. I mean we talked so much Lakers
Speaker 2: and if I see you text our boss no Wolves, Well, hey, look,
Speaker 2: am I a Lakers fan? No? Am? I really just
Speaker 2: rooting for a great battle in a good game. Absolutely,
Speaker 2: but I'm definitely leaning, okay, leaning like a cholo leaning
Speaker 2: with the Lakers here, and I wanted to find out
Speaker 2: exactly what they were Bronnie was wearing. He was rocking
Speaker 2: those unreleased Kobe's in his first NBA start of the year.
Speaker 3: By the way, the play in tournament mom but Nike
Speaker 3: Kobe five, Yeah, those are nice. Yeah. Playing tournament starts
Speaker 3: tomorrow Hawk's Magic and then the second game is the
Speaker 3: Grizzlies and Warriors.
Speaker 2: Grizzly Warriors. That's Spots, the spots search Tim Grizzly Warriors.
Speaker 2: So I did want to bring something up based on
Speaker 2: the Lakers. It was an interesting moment with Ruey, right,
Speaker 2: Danny g You hit us up with.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he was awe struck when he saw.
Speaker 2: Bruce Springsteen the boss. I just wrote down Bruce. I
Speaker 2: was trying to remember who it was. Bruce Covino. Is
Speaker 2: Ruey from your neck of the woods?
Speaker 3: I don't think so.
Speaker 2: I don't think so.
Speaker 3: Just a big Springsteams fan.
Speaker 2: But I also know that he's only twenty seven years old, right,
Speaker 2: born in ninety eight. I'm surprised he gives a Diddley
Speaker 2: squad about it. Bruce Springsteen, to be honest, because I
Speaker 2: don't care about Birson. I'm from New Jersey and I
Speaker 2: don't even care that much. So that was a side story.
Speaker 2: He made such a big deal about Bruce Springsteen, the
Speaker 2: Boss was sitting sideline at the Lakers game. So again
Speaker 2: my first instinct was, I'm surprised he even knows who
Speaker 2: he is.
Speaker 3: Well, we know that he was born in Japan, so
Speaker 3: I was wondering, like, maybe Springsteen is huge over there.
Speaker 2: Oh, that's that's a good point, perhaps because I don't
Speaker 2: know any young man twenty seven years old that would
Speaker 2: care that much who's a superstar in their own right
Speaker 2: in the NBA, where there's superstars everywhere, especially in Los
Speaker 2: Angeles right where there's celebrities court side all the time,
Speaker 2: and you're awestruck by Bruce Springsteen. Maybe there is something
Speaker 2: to that, Danny g. Maybe Bruce in Japan is so
Speaker 2: you tell bigger, You're tell me in the two thousands,
Speaker 2: when he was growing up in Japan, he was it
Speaker 2: was not about Jay Z or Beyonce or you know. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but you know how Germany's into Hasselhoff. Not that Bruce
Speaker 2: Springsteen's not a big star Heregas, He's a megastar. I'm
Speaker 2: not trying to downplay the superstardom of Bruce Springsteen again
Speaker 2: as a Jersey guy. That would be sacrilegious. And I
Speaker 2: give him all the props in the world. Bruce Springsteen's
Speaker 2: a legend. He's great. I'm just surprised that a young
Speaker 2: guy in the NBA who's surrounded by superstars would be
Speaker 2: that awestruck by an older Bruce Springsteen. The Boston This
Speaker 2: day and age.
Speaker 3: Look at this research, it says, yes, Bruce Springsteen is
Speaker 3: very popular in Japan. He in fact played a multi
Speaker 3: week residency there during his Born in the USA tour
Speaker 3: in nineteen eighty five.
Speaker 2: Yeah, maybe he grew up, you know, thinking that Bruce
Speaker 2: was like Elvis or something. I have no idea how
Speaker 2: he was idolized in his childhood grown up. So either way,
Speaker 2: that was the story, and it starts making you think,
Speaker 2: is there anyone in your professional life that can make
Speaker 2: you crack under pressure? Because it seemed like he couldn't
Speaker 2: believe it if not a celebrity, I got to ask,
Speaker 2: who do you feel we give you the most performance anxiety,
Speaker 2: not in the bedroom, like in life, like professionally, like
Speaker 2: performance anxiety at your job. Would it be your parents,
Speaker 2: would be your in laws? Would it be like a
Speaker 2: good looking woman you had a crush on. Would it
Speaker 2: be what's weird there? It doesn't even have to be.
Speaker 2: Sometimes it doesn't have to be people that you're awestruck
Speaker 2: by or even intimidated by or whatever. There's certain people
Speaker 2: that just bring out something weird in you where you're
Speaker 2: fumbling over your words that ever happened to you, Like
Speaker 2: certain people you just can't really speak to something about
Speaker 2: their presence. I'll bring up one of your classic stories
Speaker 2: just because it's it's funny and it's sort of sports related.
Speaker 2: Camino uggun props was a good ballplayer in high school.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I mean you could be lying with the
Speaker 2: fake articles you've showed me over the years. It could
Speaker 2: be good AI a photoshop, but Homer twenty seven, little
Speaker 2: run change the number every time it's not counting, like
Speaker 2: picture of the year and the state of New Jersey
Speaker 2: and you know, all everything basically growing up. But you know,
Speaker 2: oh yeah, back to the story rich Glory day is there?
Speaker 2: Oh speaking of Bruce Springsteenlord days, you know the guy
Speaker 2: he sings about I had a friend was a big
Speaker 2: baseball player. The guy who threw the speedball right by
Speaker 2: you passed away last week. Yeah, that was the guy
Speaker 2: who was a hometown friend of Bruce Springsteen's. I believe
Speaker 2: David Muir did a story on that Kvino's Right Glory Days.
Speaker 2: A lot of the lyrics are about Joe Depew, passed
Speaker 2: away at seventy five, was a childhood friend of Bruce Springsteen,
Speaker 2: and Bruce Springsteen went to social media to say he
Speaker 2: could throw that speedball right by it and make you
Speaker 2: look like a full rest in peace. You know my
Speaker 2: high school pal Joe Depeugh seventy five. So to tie
Speaker 2: it all together, Bruce Springsteen give making ruiy Hetremora feel
Speaker 2: all some type of way on the court. His friend
Speaker 2: I had a friend was a big baseball player. That
Speaker 2: guy passed away. Did I not sing it good enough? No?
Speaker 2: I just wanted to, you know, having a sing off.
Speaker 2: I didn't know we were going a song for song
Speaker 2: for long. Okay, you get born to run next. I know.
Speaker 2: There's a baseball story from All Star Steve Cavino where
Speaker 2: you saw your high school sweetheart and her family at
Speaker 2: the Jersey Shore. Was at the Jersey Shore doing what
Speaker 2: Jersey Shore kids do, and I was at the banning
Speaker 2: cage that take steroids and drank. What are they doing?
Speaker 2: Jim Towning and laundry GTL. I was doing GTL before
Speaker 2: GTL was a thing, and I was at one of
Speaker 2: the local baseball batting cages. It was an outdoor batting
Speaker 2: cage outside and I was there at my high school.
Speaker 2: Girlfriend and her family came to pick her up. And
Speaker 2: the long story short is it wasn't just her family though,
Speaker 2: it was like all of her family mom, dad, grandma, cousins.
Speaker 2: They were all there to pick her up. And she
Speaker 2: said to them, wait, wait, he's really good. Watch And
Speaker 2: I went from hitting frozen rope after frozen rope to
Speaker 2: all of a sudden feeling this immense amount of pressure,
Speaker 2: knowing her dad and her family was watching. Oh, Steve's
Speaker 2: all stayed dad, He's the best baseball player. Watch him
Speaker 2: in the batting cage. I missed every pitch. And you know,
Speaker 2: this is thirty years later, I'm still talking about it
Speaker 2: because it was so deflating and embarrassing, and you know,
Speaker 2: you can't really understand, like how did I go from?
Speaker 2: You know, when you're at that age and you're in
Speaker 2: that zone, you're just teeing off. I couldn't hit not
Speaker 2: one because I cracked under that pressure knowing it was them,
Speaker 2: it was them watching me, and I felt their eyes
Speaker 2: just staring at me, and I was so embarrassed, and
Speaker 2: I'll never forget that feeling of like, man, what just happened?
Speaker 2: Ask yourself this, if you were to play in a
Speaker 2: charity softball er basketball game or throw out a first
Speaker 2: pitch Danny g or if you were to do a
Speaker 2: live broadcast somewhere under a high pressure situation, big crowd.
Speaker 2: Is there someone that, if they were there, you would
Speaker 2: feel a little like ooh, I give you like your
Speaker 2: parents or your parents would be the norm one answer.
Speaker 2: Or maybe again, maybe a new person you're dating, or
Speaker 2: I know there's some people that are like, I don't
Speaker 2: want my spouse there they that's the you know, well,
Speaker 2: it's whoever has weird energy about them or gives you
Speaker 2: that step feeling or adds that extra anxiety or pressure.
Speaker 2: Coach ballgame who we interviewed on our bonus show Over
Speaker 2: Promised James Low coach ballgame. Where's the Fedora? You could
Speaker 2: actually watch the interview on over Promise Fox Sports Radios
Speaker 2: YouTube page. He said, there's so many kids that are
Speaker 2: just great players, and then their parents come and they
Speaker 2: start cheering and putting his pressure on him. The kid
Speaker 2: like crumbles in the moment and he's not the same player.
Speaker 2: So there are times that, no joke, I wonder because,
Speaker 2: as I've said many times here, I coach my kids,
Speaker 2: and there are times where I wonder, would they be
Speaker 2: better if I wasn't their coach? Like I feel like
Speaker 2: I do a great job coaching the kids in general,
Speaker 2: but my own kid maybe like dad being the coach.
Speaker 2: How do I know that's even good for them? I
Speaker 2: mean maybe them particularly, it's not don't I don't know,
Speaker 2: you don't know, right, I mean, it's it's case by case,
Speaker 2: kid by a kid. But we here on the Conveno
Speaker 2: and Rich Show have a theory. It's called the lick
Speaker 2: Ma theory. Look ma, because how many times were you
Speaker 2: doing something? Rich, you on your pogo stick, whatever you
Speaker 2: were doing. You know me, I'm hitting like three point
Speaker 2: shots in my backyard or trick shots in your backyard,
Speaker 2: or you're doing something like with a tennis ball, whatever
Speaker 2: it was, you did it thirty times in a row.
Speaker 2: You hit nothing but the bottom of the net. Look Ma,
Speaker 2: look ma, the second your mom looks brick, you're not
Speaker 2: hitting the same shot over and over again because of
Speaker 2: that weird subconscious pressure that you put on yourself or
Speaker 2: they put on you in that moment. It's weird. It's
Speaker 2: really weird how that happens. Just a dumb thought to
Speaker 2: think about who in your life, who would be that
Speaker 2: person for you? Family member, kids, spouse, parents. Sarachi Mura
Speaker 2: apparently as Bruce Springs, ye knew an NBA players kryptonite was,
Speaker 2: you know, an eighties rock star. Now you could chime

Speaker 3: only one ten times prior. That's his eleventh victory in
Speaker 3: this game. Because Dan Byers not here, well, this.
Speaker 2: Game's no joke. And when Dan Buyer's not here, you

Speaker 3: You guys are making me feel really strong about myself.
Speaker 2: I'm sure appreciate that they never went. And when Big
Speaker 2: Mike's here, you gotta stomp on him.
Speaker 3: Then it's like playing the Panthers Mark and Rancho Koukama.

Speaker 3: big question is, even though he didn't win, do you
Speaker 3: want to mail out a swiggy to him?
Speaker 2: Absolutely? Yes, look it.
Speaker 4: Because he's on a natural high from his victory. But
Speaker 4: he has to send something back that they hand out

Speaker 4: but of course, of course thank you for playing man.

Speaker 3: Thank you Mark for listening to CNR filling in for
Speaker 3: Dan Patrick Man.
Speaker 2: That was fun. Man, that's the that's a heated battle.
Speaker 2: That game's tough because like as Rich and I were
Speaker 2: going back and forth, he was and I was taking
Speaker 2: his answers, he's taken my answers, so you really have
Speaker 2: to think on the spot, which makes it difficult. And yeah,
Speaker 2: it's really tough to beat Dan Byron. I want to
Speaker 2: thank Big Mic for running this place and for playing
Speaker 2: the game. Thank you, Big Mic, Big Mike, don't leave. Yeah,
Speaker 2: because I have one more question for you. I think,
Speaker 2: first of all, because I think Cavino's Cavino's Pete Webber
Speaker 2: might be one of his top five impressions. That's solid.
Speaker 2: I did it. That one very good. And I bring
Speaker 2: this up because, yeah, but right before he says the
Speaker 2: famous quote baller Pete Weber, in that moment, he has
Speaker 2: like a flipout moment where he's like, I did it.
Speaker 3: He blocks out.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he flips out because he calls out a kid
Speaker 2: that was taunting him in the fans, a child. I
Speaker 2: bring this up because we went to the Mets as
Speaker 2: game yesterday and Sacramento game ended about four o'clock, three hour,
Speaker 2: you know about a three hour game. Our flight wasn't
Speaker 2: until eight. So we went to a cool bar pub
Speaker 2: area where the Sacramento Kings play and they had a
Speaker 2: little bowling alley. Not great, The lanes were not oil great.
Speaker 2: It was the pins were on strings, but it was
Speaker 2: regular bowling balls and we said, let's bowl have a
Speaker 2: drink before we go to the airport. And speaking of bowlers,
Speaker 2: Coveno broke one of the top rules of being a
Speaker 2: grown man. Yeah, did I lose my man card yesterday?
Speaker 2: I say no, But we'll explain. What did you do?
Speaker 2: You know what?
Speaker 7: I didn't?

Speaker 2: on the NBA the playoffs are here, the playing games
Speaker 2: when both teams are like five hundred or under. Are
Speaker 2: you watching just to watch or or are you thinking

Speaker 2: But again, Yankees are playing today, so you got to
Speaker 2: watch your baseball. But of course I'll watch that absolutely.
Speaker 2: This is when you have to tune in. You have to. Well. Now, yesterday,
Speaker 2: speaking of games, Rich and I went to the mets
Speaker 2: A's game. You could see our footage at Covino and
Speaker 2: Rich did a cool little montage. We even got on TV.
Speaker 2: Fun time. After the game, we went to do you
Speaker 2: remember the name of the placer?
Speaker 6: Now?
Speaker 2: Yeah, I have it handy here. But I was gonna say,
Speaker 2: I went to this like adult version of Dave and Busters.
Speaker 2: Well it's not there. They weren't strippers.
Speaker 4: There isn't David Buster's kind of for adults.
Speaker 2: No, David Buster is like the adult Chuck e Cheese.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: No, I was even more adult than that, though it was.
Speaker 2: It wasn't like Goofy Arcades. It was called punch Bowl Social. Yeah.
Speaker 2: So we went to this place called punch Bowl Social
Speaker 2: and we just went there to have some bar food,
Speaker 2: hang out and enjoy Sacramento. And there were bowling alleys there, like,
Speaker 2: hey man, it's got a few drinks and let's bowl
Speaker 2: a little bit. And I broke one of our CNR
Speaker 2: rules for years. I've always said, you lose your man
Speaker 2: card if you can't break a hundred. But I almost
Speaker 2: have to put a like an asterisk next to that.
Speaker 2: I don't think there needs to be an astro. I
Speaker 2: think you just I'll never own it no way, because
Speaker 2: you just don't understand where I'm coming from. The lanes
Speaker 2: were awful. But again, this is like someone being like, oh, dude,
Speaker 2: you're playing softball pop up and they say, oh, it's
Speaker 2: the gloves. There were lanes. There were ends with strings
Speaker 2: on him. Right, So Marionette, pins, I don't know what
Speaker 2: you call these things, so pins with strings on them
Speaker 2: and lanes with no oil, so you had to use
Speaker 2: the house balls. And if you throw a hook right,
Speaker 2: if you've ever got your game to a point where
Speaker 2: it was good and it mattered, and you got past
Speaker 2: the straight ball or thrown it between your legs grandma
Speaker 2: style like Rich balls, then then you understand what I'm
Speaker 2: talking about. Because game recognized game. I could not throw
Speaker 2: a hook, and every time I threw the ball would
Speaker 2: go into the opposite end of the gutters. There was
Speaker 2: no adjustments to be made. You're the kid. Should I
Speaker 2: have broke a hundred, Yes, But at that point I
Speaker 2: didn't care because it was horror. Now you're the kid
Speaker 2: that when he drops a pop up you stare at
Speaker 2: your glove like, oh, the equipment. You're the guy that
Speaker 2: you miss it all because if you really bowl, you're
Speaker 2: missing all your jumps. Rich throws a straight ball no
Speaker 2: matter what, so this didn't affect him whatsoever. If you
Speaker 2: throw a hook, or if you throw your ball with
Speaker 2: a spin, it was impossible to do so, and I
Speaker 2: couldn't make that adjustment, and I'm like, eh, at that
Speaker 2: point I hated it and didn't care much, So yes,
Speaker 2: I didn't break a hundred. It's embarrassing, but I didn't
Speaker 2: care because it sucked. It was like it was no,
Speaker 2: it was a level above ski ball. Well, it's easy
Speaker 2: to not care when you bowl a ninety. Yeah I
Speaker 2: bought a ninety twice, but ninety and like ninety one.
Speaker 2: But it's terribly embarrassing because but it's not like they
Speaker 2: were bowling anything. The highest game was like a one
Speaker 2: twenty something. No, I bought one fifty eighth the first game,
Speaker 2: bull only, but a thousand dollars eight. Yes, well, I
Speaker 2: mean if you're the adamant, then I must have just
Speaker 2: missed it.
Speaker 3: You have a photo to prove.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to maybe our buddy himI does. Yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm not gonna fight. I only guess I got a
Speaker 2: turkey in the middle. And when you get a turkey, well,
Speaker 2: the next game you barely broke around. I bled the
Speaker 2: one twenty two. It is not good your Parker bone.
Speaker 2: No nobody bowled well. But what I'm saying is to
Speaker 2: not break a hundred means you you to break a hundred,
Speaker 2: you needed to mark. Here's what happened. I didn't care
Speaker 2: after a while because it was impossible. I didn't care.
Speaker 2: It did, dude, these balls were bedrock. They had chunks
Speaker 2: missing out of them. There was no oil. You don't
Speaker 2: under Here's what you don't get. There was no oil
Speaker 2: on lane. Make an adjustment. So when you when you
Speaker 2: have no oil on the lanes, it's impossible to throw
Speaker 2: the ball with any accuracy at all. If you have
Speaker 2: a spin on it, you have to throw it completely straight.
Speaker 2: And that's just not how I bowl. So me by
Speaker 2: me being better than you really was working to my
Speaker 2: disadvantage yesterday. Yeah, these lanes were at your level. Was
Speaker 2: at school boy. I don't think we've ever bolted together,
Speaker 2: and you beat me because I never went real bowling
Speaker 2: with you. We're always rocking and bowling with neon bowling balls.
Speaker 2: Let's go bowling with a real bowling ball and at
Speaker 2: a real lane. I gotta know where these real bowling
Speaker 2: alley ou because we've done rocking ball on double datric girlfriends,
Speaker 2: We've gone out with groups of people. And you think
Speaker 2: using a pink neon ball is real bowling, then you
Speaker 2: don't know what bowling is.
Speaker 4: This guy's uh Rory McElroy over here complaining about the
Speaker 4: mini golf course.
Speaker 2: Well that's the truth. Yeah, it's like Rory McElroy.
Speaker 4: He probably thinks that explaining about the Mindig golf course,
Speaker 4: the clown's mouth is a little bit too uh, left
Speaker 4: the center.
Speaker 2: You could say I'm being defensive or justifying. We don't
Speaker 2: have to say that, but I guarantee you anybody that
Speaker 2: bowls and really knows what it's about knows exactly what
Speaker 2: I'm talking about. If you really bowl, you can't bowl
Speaker 2: these toy bowls. We get it, Parker Moone. We'll see
Speaker 2: you guys tomorrow. If you missed any of the show,
Speaker 2: just find the podcast. We'll post it at Covin on
Speaker 2: Riche and some fun highlights from our Sacramento trip. We'll
Speaker 2: see you guys tomorrow as we continue the Dan Patrick
Speaker 2: Patrick Baby. See you guys,
