45
00:01:58,320 --> 00:02:00,000
Speaker 3: which we're gonna kick the show off with in a second,

46
00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:01,600
Speaker 3: because we have a theory about getting fired.

47
00:02:01,760 --> 00:02:03,920
Speaker 1: H Dude, I'm gettingful who have a job man.

48
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:07,120

49
00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:11,160
Speaker 3: you're fire like. So I mean, we have a theory

50
00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:12,959
Speaker 3: on this, but I gotta say one more time you

51
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:14,240
Speaker 3: look at his uta hat.

52
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:17,959
Speaker 1: Is there not a sleeker, tighter logo than that? Though

53
00:02:18,120 --> 00:02:19,360
Speaker 1: definitely tight on your head?

54
00:02:19,600 --> 00:02:22,680
Speaker 2: But yes, it's a very sweet looking, fresh and clean,

55

Speaker 2: wearing army green white? You think I'm wearing this bracelet

68
00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:07,200
Speaker 2: here made by Army trunks right there? The gun metal

69
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:11,240
Speaker 2: I'm a rock in it absolutely saluting the troops and

70
00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:13,720
Speaker 2: for those about the rock, I salute you, Thank you guys,

Speaker 3: song in the Navy.

00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:34,080
Speaker 2: Yeah he does, Yes, he does. In fact, he's dancing

79
00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:36,560
Speaker 2: to it right now. So Yes, Happy Veterans Day. I

80
00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,200
Speaker 2: hope the kiddos had a nice day off and we

81
00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:43,040
Speaker 2: salute anyone who served our country. Oh man, I don't

82
00:03:43,040 --> 00:03:44,840
Speaker 2: know if I could have ever done that, So that's

83
00:03:44,840 --> 00:03:46,800
Speaker 2: why we do the best we can here on Fox

84
00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:49,200
Speaker 2: Sports Radio. Thank you guys for doing it for us.

85
00:03:49,720 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 2: And again it goes back to what I said before

86
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:54,560
Speaker 2: about being thankful and grateful to have a job because

87
00:03:54,600 --> 00:03:58,160
Speaker 2: nothing's guaranteed in life. And that's what I've learned through

88
00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:00,360
Speaker 2: years of ups and downs. Now, Rich and I've been

89
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:03,520
Speaker 2: very fortunate to work together for over twenty years, but

90
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,880
Speaker 2: there's never been a guarantee. He needs to get nice

91
00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,480
Speaker 2: long contracts and that was like year to year and

92
00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:11,400
Speaker 2: you're always on like the edge of your seat, wonder

93
00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:13,480
Speaker 2: if you're gonna get signed again. It's not a fun

94
00:04:13,520 --> 00:04:18,719
Speaker 2: life to live. COVID changed everything. People lost jobs, People

95
00:04:19,800 --> 00:04:22,560
Speaker 2: go through jobs now way more than they did. And

96
00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:25,120
Speaker 2: our parents come up and our grandparents come up rich.

97
00:04:25,200 --> 00:04:27,239
Speaker 2: We talk about it all the time. Your grandfather probably

98
00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:29,040
Speaker 2: worked for the same company's entire life.

99
00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:31,719
Speaker 3: He worked for con Edison in Queens, New York for

100
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:34,159
Speaker 3: you know, forty fifty years and got to watch and

101
00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:37,440
Speaker 3: retired like that was the old guy routine. That that

102
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,080
Speaker 3: was the blueprint. Now people are job hopping. It's a

103
00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,120
Speaker 3: different world. But cauf, you know what, I have a

104
00:04:42,160 --> 00:04:43,560
Speaker 3: theory when we want to get into and it has

105
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,360
Speaker 3: to do with the Nico Harrison firing yesterday, of course.

106
00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:50,800
Speaker 3: Brian Dable, I feel like to be a man or

107
00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:56,840
Speaker 3: a woman, to be truly humbled, to have character, you

108
00:04:57,000 --> 00:04:58,960
Speaker 3: need to have been fired and dumped in.

109
00:04:58,920 --> 00:05:03,320
Speaker 2: Your lifeump especially yeah, dumped. I think changes a person

110
00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:06,960
Speaker 2: fired does too, though, because it just shows you what

111
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:07,839
Speaker 2: you're really made of.

112
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:10,200
Speaker 1: It's not a fun experience. We've all been there.

113
00:05:10,720 --> 00:05:13,040
Speaker 2: I like to say, let go or it didn't work out,

114
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,159
Speaker 2: or they gave us an offer we couldn't accept. But

115
00:05:15,640 --> 00:05:18,360
Speaker 2: truth is, you get an offer that you can't accept

116
00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,640
Speaker 2: because they're putting you in a place where you're forced

117
00:05:20,640 --> 00:05:22,839
Speaker 2: to move on or forced to quit. So essentially, it

118
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:25,680
Speaker 2: kind of got fired and it's happened to the best

119
00:05:25,680 --> 00:05:28,279
Speaker 2: of us. But you got to rise like the phoenix.

120
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:30,440
Speaker 2: That's really what you have to do. It's your back's

121
00:05:30,440 --> 00:05:32,760
Speaker 2: against the wall. Especially if you have a family, you're like,

122
00:05:32,800 --> 00:05:34,440
Speaker 2: all right, I gotta get together. I got to develop

123
00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:37,359
Speaker 2: a new skill. I got to figure it out. And

124
00:05:37,400 --> 00:05:39,880
Speaker 2: that's when you feel the most alive. And again, that's

125
00:05:39,880 --> 00:05:43,360
Speaker 2: when it really shows what you are as a man

126
00:05:43,480 --> 00:05:46,320
Speaker 2: or a woman and what you're made of. And it's

127
00:05:46,400 --> 00:05:48,839
Speaker 2: happened from the smallest of levels. Rich, weren't you fired

128
00:05:48,839 --> 00:05:53,520
Speaker 2: at Wendy's. I was fired at Wendy's. I was fired

129
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 2: at a radio station. We've all been fired and we've

130
00:05:55,839 --> 00:05:58,120
Speaker 2: all been dumped. And I really do think it's a true.

131
00:05:57,920 --> 00:06:02,200
Speaker 3: Test of how you rebound. It humbles you when you

132
00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:04,720
Speaker 3: think you're invincible, like yo, she'll never dump met me.

133
00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,599
Speaker 3: I saw Cavino at his most miserable moments when he

134
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 3: thought some of these girls would never leave him, and

135
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:11,200
Speaker 3: then he's crying in his beer.

136
00:06:11,440 --> 00:06:13,920
Speaker 2: I think that's just as important as getting fired. Look,

137
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,839
Speaker 2: no one likes these things, but it's a part of

138
00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,599
Speaker 2: life that shapes you and gives you character, Like Rich said,

139
00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:21,520
Speaker 2: and Rich, that's a great example in my first learning

140
00:06:21,560 --> 00:06:25,120
Speaker 2: experience that life's not always going to be sunshine and rainbows.

141
00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:29,440
Speaker 1: As Rocky about Moas said, you're like You're life ain'tal sunshine.

142
00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:33,159
Speaker 2: I was definitely that guy who walked with the strut,

143
00:06:33,520 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 2: thought his esten stink was the coolest dude in the room.

144
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:40,359
Speaker 2: She'd never break up with me. She's lucky to have me.

145
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:43,159
Speaker 2: I'm God's gift to women. I'm the greatest guy because

146
00:06:43,160 --> 00:06:46,599
Speaker 2: my mom told me so. And sure enough, Man, I

147
00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:48,640
Speaker 2: was dumped on my ass time and time again by

148
00:06:48,880 --> 00:06:52,400
Speaker 2: women who thought otherwise. Well, and you know what, though,

149
00:06:52,839 --> 00:06:56,400
Speaker 2: it motivated me. It lit a fire. It let me

150
00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,120
Speaker 2: know that I wasn't all that in the bag of

151
00:06:59,240 --> 00:07:02,000
Speaker 2: chip says. Your dad probably used to say, you know,

152
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:03,840
Speaker 2: and I remember this clear as day.

153
00:07:03,920 --> 00:07:04,080
Speaker 1: Rich.

154
00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:07,080
Speaker 2: My uncle Joe said to me, you know what he's like,

155
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:10,120
Speaker 2: actually like you better man as a result, because you've

156
00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:13,520
Speaker 2: been humbled, you become a real person. You're no longer

157
00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,680
Speaker 2: a cocky wooden boy anymore. You're not a Pinocchio. You're

158
00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,240
Speaker 2: a real man because you know what it's like to

159
00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:24,120
Speaker 2: experience heartbreak and loss and defeat and being fired. It

160
00:07:24,200 --> 00:07:26,280
Speaker 2: humbles you and it puts you on your ass into

161
00:07:26,440 --> 00:07:28,040
Speaker 2: a real place that some people.

162
00:07:27,920 --> 00:07:28,320
Speaker 1: Need to be.

163
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:31,240
Speaker 3: And before he got fired, we used to call him

164
00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:34,520
Speaker 3: co Pinocchio. No, but I remember we are on Fox

165
00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 3: Sports Radio. Is it true that the first two main

166
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,840
Speaker 3: girlfriends you've had in your life back in your day?

167
00:07:39,960 --> 00:07:40,160
Speaker 1: Yes?

168
00:07:40,240 --> 00:07:42,720
Speaker 2: Are you gonna tie this into sports dumped you for

169
00:07:42,760 --> 00:07:44,720
Speaker 2: a New Jersey Net Yes at the time.

170
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:46,400
Speaker 1: Yeah. And then the next girlfriend dumped you for a

171
00:07:46,440 --> 00:07:47,160
Speaker 1: New York Ranger.

172
00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,520
Speaker 2: Absolutely. Yes, that's a true story. I'm not proud of it,

173
00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:51,800
Speaker 2: but it goes to show you. I was a dude

174
00:07:51,840 --> 00:07:53,840
Speaker 2: living in my parents' basement, or as I used to

175
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:57,040
Speaker 2: tell girls, I have these old roommates that live with me.

176
00:07:57,880 --> 00:08:01,120
Speaker 2: Don't mind those old people, they're my roommates. They live upstairs,

177
00:08:01,160 --> 00:08:05,360
Speaker 2: they rent for me, they rent from me. I was

178
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:08,480
Speaker 2: living at home. I was driving radio station vehicles. I

179
00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,520
Speaker 2: was on my grind on my come up I sold

180
00:08:10,840 --> 00:08:13,320
Speaker 2: these beautiful women on my goals and dreams, and they

181
00:08:13,400 --> 00:08:16,080
Speaker 2: left me for dudes with money. They left me for

182
00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,920
Speaker 2: dudes that were doing big things in professional sports. That

183
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:22,920
Speaker 2: humbles you. So back to back days, we're talking about

184
00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:23,880
Speaker 2: people getting fired.

185
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:26,280
Speaker 3: The best of the best in sports have been let

186
00:08:26,280 --> 00:08:30,400
Speaker 3: go out of contracts. Coaches have been fired, players that

187
00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:32,400
Speaker 3: are Hall of famers have been yeah, you know we're

188
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,560
Speaker 3: going to release you. We're not going to pick up

189
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,000
Speaker 3: the option on your deal. Like this happens to everyone,

190
00:08:37,080 --> 00:08:40,360
Speaker 3: and I really do think it's a test to see what.

191
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:40,760
Speaker 1: You're made of.

192
00:08:40,880 --> 00:08:45,360
Speaker 3: Anna Wayerson and Brian Dable both facing these obstacles over

193
00:08:45,400 --> 00:08:47,400
Speaker 3: the last two days. And you know what, sometimes the

194
00:08:47,440 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 3: cushions a little softer when you have guaranteed money and

195
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 3: you're like, yeah, I could just chill for a couple

196
00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:52,920
Speaker 3: of years like some of these coaches.

197
00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,120
Speaker 1: But there is something humbling about it.

198
00:08:56,440 --> 00:08:58,920
Speaker 3: And we want your thoughts on Nico Harrison did need

199
00:08:58,960 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 3: dodge a bullet one two minut times?

200
00:09:00,480 --> 00:09:01,920
Speaker 1: Like one of the the.

201
00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:05,120
Speaker 3: MAVs are three and eight if they had started strong.

202
00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,520
Speaker 3: Is he still there? I heard Dan Bayer say before dB.

203
00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:10,480
Speaker 3: I do think it's funny how he almost tried to

204
00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:14,000
Speaker 3: like take credit for winning the lottery and you know,

205
00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 3: almost like get made up for the fact for the

206
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 3: looking deal. Yes, it is pretty funny how he is

207
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:21,800
Speaker 3: sort of skated by, But I guess everyone hits the

208
00:09:21,880 --> 00:09:23,240
Speaker 3: end of the road, you know, when it's time.

209
00:09:23,320 --> 00:09:25,520
Speaker 4: I believe the phrase that he may have used, and

210
00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:26,960
Speaker 4: I could get this wrong, but I thought it was

211
00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:32,480
Speaker 4: something like fortune favors the Bold, like or like that

212
00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:34,840
Speaker 4: was his reward for doing that Luca deal.

213
00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:36,559
Speaker 1: I thought it was something like that. Sounds like a

214
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:37,080
Speaker 1: soap opera.

215
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:39,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think Matt Damon said that in a crypto

216
00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,000
Speaker 2: commercial fortune favors the Bowl.

217
00:09:43,000 --> 00:09:45,800
Speaker 4: It was something along those lines, and everybody just kind

218
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:46,480
Speaker 4: of rolled their eyes.

219
00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,800
Speaker 2: Well, the silver lining is you learn and grow from

220
00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:53,240
Speaker 2: these moments and you end up somewhere hopefully better than

221
00:09:53,280 --> 00:09:56,040
Speaker 2: you were, in a better place that fits better than before.

222
00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,719
Speaker 2: But I think the firing of Nico Harrison today is

223
00:09:59,240 --> 00:10:03,360
Speaker 2: clearly it and admission that it was a big mistake

224
00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,760
Speaker 2: letting Luca go. So, yeah, you lose Nico Harrison, and

225
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:09,680
Speaker 2: then you realize too that Luca is sitting there, sitting

226
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:12,760
Speaker 2: pretty in Los Angeles saying I told you so. Because

227
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:16,880
Speaker 2: the flip side as to why is they have fully

228
00:10:17,240 --> 00:10:20,160
Speaker 2: admitted that it was a big mistake letting this dude go,

229
00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:24,160
Speaker 2: and I agree Rich hadn't. They started out three and eight,

230
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,560
Speaker 2: and as Dan Byer said, second worst in the West.

231
00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,240
Speaker 2: I think he still might have a job. Just like

232
00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,760
Speaker 2: we said yesterday, day Ball might still have been there

233
00:10:31,880 --> 00:10:35,200
Speaker 2: had they not lost that game in the fashion in

234
00:10:35,240 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 2: which they lost.

235
00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:40,040
Speaker 3: Dude, you drop three of your first eleven. I'm sorry,

236
00:10:40,080 --> 00:10:42,520
Speaker 3: you only win three your first eleven and you lose

237
00:10:42,600 --> 00:10:47,080
Speaker 3: four double digit late leads in the NFL. Listen, it

238
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:48,600
Speaker 3: comes a point where it's like, I don't care, like

239
00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,199
Speaker 3: we've given this guy won't too many chances.

240
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:55,640
Speaker 2: You're five, Well, all jobs are how you perform all jobs.

241
00:10:55,679 --> 00:10:59,439
Speaker 2: If you suck, you're gonna put your job in jeopardy.

242
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:01,920
Speaker 2: It's not that he said, but he made a colossal

243
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:05,880
Speaker 2: mistake by letting a superstar player go Cooper flag Anthony

244
00:11:05,960 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 2: Davis not cutting Anthony Davis wasn't cutting it in LA

245
00:11:09,080 --> 00:11:11,800
Speaker 2: with his injuries and not playing the way they hoped.

246
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:14,199
Speaker 2: So it was four years twenty A little over four

247
00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,079
Speaker 2: years twenty twenty one was when he was hired GM

248
00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:22,720
Speaker 2: to twenty twenty five, and as of today, nine months

249
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,920
Speaker 2: after they let go of Luca, he is fired.

250
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:31,199
Speaker 1: So your thoughts on again ending up where you need

251
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:31,440
Speaker 1: to be.

252
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:33,600
Speaker 2: And we wrap it up with this a personal little

253
00:11:33,640 --> 00:11:39,160
Speaker 2: antidote because rich and I we were at ESPN and

254
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:42,960
Speaker 2: we worked really hard to get that opportunity, like really hard.

255
00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:45,680
Speaker 2: And we've mentioned this story several times. We were on

256
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:48,400
Speaker 2: ESPN Radio for about two years. We gave up every

257
00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 2: weekend doing ESPN Radio just to get that TV shot,

258
00:11:52,360 --> 00:11:55,199
Speaker 2: that TV show. We finally got our own TV show.

259
00:11:55,960 --> 00:11:58,240
Speaker 2: We're on the air for about two years. We finally

260
00:11:58,360 --> 00:12:04,240
Speaker 2: get rolling. Yep, everything, everything's going great, and then COVID happened.

261
00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,240
Speaker 2: Our contract ended during that and we lost our gig.

262
00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:10,719
Speaker 2: And man, we were like, well, you could sit there

263
00:12:10,760 --> 00:12:14,200
Speaker 2: and feel sorry for yourself, but we were humbled because like,

264
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:15,160
Speaker 2: you're gonna let us go?

265
00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:17,079
Speaker 1: Are you crazy?

266
00:12:17,240 --> 00:12:19,040
Speaker 2: We're the best in the game. How do you not

267
00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,120
Speaker 2: see this? Come on, Covino and rich Man, this is

268
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:23,160
Speaker 2: our moment.

269
00:12:24,200 --> 00:12:24,600
Speaker 5: And.

270
00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,240
Speaker 2: You grab yourself by the bootstraps. As your grandma would say,

271
00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:30,199
Speaker 2: I don't even know what that means.

272
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 3: Well, I mean, i'd imagine some boots have straps and

273
00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:36,240
Speaker 3: that's a how you cope your boots.

274
00:12:37,040 --> 00:12:39,760
Speaker 6: I remember seeing your guys's commercials, your promos for the

275
00:12:39,760 --> 00:12:40,720
Speaker 6: show on ESPN.

276
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:43,760
Speaker 1: Dude, we were so proud of you. Who are these bozos? Right?

277
00:12:43,840 --> 00:12:46,240
Speaker 2: Yeah, seriously exactly, we were gonna be on every night,

278
00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 2: late night. They were about to move our show earlier

279
00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:52,959
Speaker 2: on ESPN, and then the Covid thing happened, and honestly,

280
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:56,160
Speaker 2: we were like, wow, well, okay, I guess that's life.

281
00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,960
Speaker 2: Nobody's safe in life period, right, and then we're like,

282
00:13:00,040 --> 00:13:03,120
Speaker 2: at least we got our serious XM gig. Dude, after

283
00:13:03,280 --> 00:13:11,240
Speaker 2: sixteen plus years out of nowhere Covid contracts, budgets, we

284
00:13:11,280 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 2: lost our gig at serious XM ors. I like to

285
00:13:13,640 --> 00:13:16,240
Speaker 2: say they gave us an offer we couldn't accept.

286
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:18,720
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, it was a weak offer with a non compete,

287
00:13:18,760 --> 00:13:20,480
Speaker 3: so it's like, hey, here's less money, but you can't

288
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:21,440
Speaker 3: do anything else.

289
00:13:21,280 --> 00:13:24,199
Speaker 1: So rich n, that's a hum humbled. But we had

290
00:13:24,200 --> 00:13:25,160
Speaker 1: to pick ourselves up.

291
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:27,280
Speaker 2: We had to do our own thing, our own Patreon,

292
00:13:27,320 --> 00:13:30,040
Speaker 2: which we still do, became our own bosses, and they

293
00:13:30,040 --> 00:13:33,640
Speaker 2: wouldn't you know it, A blessing called Fox Sports Radio

294
00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:37,319
Speaker 2: came our way. I'm forever, grateful, forever thankful. Fox Sports

295
00:13:37,440 --> 00:13:39,760
Speaker 2: Radio scooped us up. Shout out to our agents and

296
00:13:39,800 --> 00:13:42,080
Speaker 2: Scott and Don, everyone that made it happen, super agent

297
00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:45,160
Speaker 2: Sean Wyman. But Rich and I got an opportunity and

298
00:13:45,200 --> 00:13:49,360
Speaker 2: we couldn't be happier and in a better place. But

299
00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:52,120
Speaker 2: it all happened because we were let go. You might

300
00:13:52,160 --> 00:13:54,880
Speaker 2: be in a relationship right now, Rich your marriage. You

301
00:13:54,920 --> 00:13:58,480
Speaker 2: wouldn't be married to your beautiful model wife with your

302
00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:01,920
Speaker 2: beautiful little nose picking kid if some woman didn't break

303
00:14:01,960 --> 00:14:02,920
Speaker 2: your heart along the way.

304
00:14:03,320 --> 00:14:03,600
Speaker 1: True.

305
00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:06,680
Speaker 3: I mean, it all sort of works itself out, and

306
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,439
Speaker 3: I think you know it's it's interesting when you see

307
00:14:09,520 --> 00:14:12,120
Speaker 3: Nico Harrison get fired and Brian Dable because when you're

308
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:14,640
Speaker 3: in a position like a head coach or a GM

309
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:20,280
Speaker 3: or management, it's wild because people will applaud your dismissal.

310
00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:21,720
Speaker 1: And that's gotta be a weird feeling.

311
00:14:21,760 --> 00:14:24,520
Speaker 3: Like most people get dumped or lose their job, most

312
00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,920
Speaker 3: feel sorry for them. The fact that people like fire

313
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,840
Speaker 3: Nico and now today they're like, yeah, like he's got

314
00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:31,640
Speaker 3: to really have it within him to be like, I'm good,

315
00:14:31,680 --> 00:14:35,760
Speaker 3: I'll find another gig. I believe in myself but I

316
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,920
Speaker 3: think to go with our point, would love your feedback.

317
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 3: Was it about time or do you think they should

318
00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:42,880
Speaker 3: have given him this year to see what happens with

319
00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:46,640
Speaker 3: Flagg and Davis? Or do you think that everyone needs

320
00:14:46,640 --> 00:14:50,040
Speaker 3: to get dumped and fired to just really see who

321
00:14:50,040 --> 00:14:51,680
Speaker 3: they are at some point in their life.

322
00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:55,840
Speaker 2: I think it makes you human, It humanizes you, humbles you,

323
00:14:55,960 --> 00:14:58,040
Speaker 2: it builds character. I think all those things are true

324
00:14:58,120 --> 00:15:00,960
Speaker 2: rich and I think everybody does need. You can't coast

325
00:15:01,000 --> 00:15:04,160
Speaker 2: true life thinking you're invincible because if you do get

326
00:15:04,280 --> 00:15:06,520
Speaker 2: knocked down, you don't know how to recuperate, you don't

327
00:15:06,600 --> 00:15:09,160
Speaker 2: know how to handle that. But if you've been there before,

328
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:13,280
Speaker 2: you know you're gonna be just okay. And I think

329
00:15:13,320 --> 00:15:15,800
Speaker 2: I love your second layer to this. How do people

330
00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:19,440
Speaker 2: feel when they finally got what they wanted? Like even

331
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,560
Speaker 2: my uncle Bill. My uncle Bill is one of the

332
00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:27,360
Speaker 2: nicest guys and he's a hardcore Giants fan and he

333
00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:29,560
Speaker 2: was telling me yesterday too, He's like, yeah, I know

334
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:32,640
Speaker 2: it's tough, man, but he had to go, yeah, sometimes

335
00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,960
Speaker 2: it's warranted. I got it's sports and it's a game

336
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:39,480
Speaker 2: of winning and you're not producing. But when you get

337
00:15:39,480 --> 00:15:42,840
Speaker 2: what you want, as a fan, are you really happy

338
00:15:42,840 --> 00:15:45,360
Speaker 2: about it? Are you ever really happy to see someone

339
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:48,240
Speaker 2: else's I don't know, demise or failure or.

340
00:15:48,280 --> 00:15:50,400
Speaker 1: Fire or anything because I saw.

341
00:15:51,960 --> 00:15:55,240
Speaker 3: You know, I saw CAFC Barstool, our buddy CAFC from

342
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,800
Speaker 3: Barstool talk about how and Gary Vee has talked about

343
00:15:57,800 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 3: this as well, where fandom is weird because she set

344
00:16:02,240 --> 00:16:04,960
Speaker 3: of put aside logic and you know, how you really

345
00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:07,880
Speaker 3: act as a normal human being, like like the example

346
00:16:07,880 --> 00:16:10,600
Speaker 3: would be like, yo, the Yankees suck. I know the

347
00:16:10,640 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 3: Yankees don't suck. But if you if you're a Red

348
00:16:12,920 --> 00:16:14,720
Speaker 3: Sox fan and don't like the Yankees, you know they

349
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:17,760
Speaker 3: could be the World Series and you're like they suckt logic,

350
00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:19,360
Speaker 3: you got a fire boone?

351
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 1: Yeah, And then like.

352
00:16:21,400 --> 00:16:23,800
Speaker 3: You know, you're like the Mets didn't make the playoffs.

353
00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:26,080
Speaker 3: My team didn't make the playoffs. I have all these

354
00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:29,160
Speaker 3: buddies that are like f Mendoza, fire that bum, and

355
00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 3: I'm like, yeah, you don't think he tried, Like I

356
00:16:31,920 --> 00:16:34,160
Speaker 3: don't know that. You start to be sympathetic Danny, and

357
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:36,200
Speaker 3: then you realize, like why am I being a logical fan?

358
00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:37,280
Speaker 1: That's not what Phantom's about.

359
00:16:37,360 --> 00:16:41,840
Speaker 2: Yeah, fire up, butanom about being an absolute terrible person.

360
00:16:42,480 --> 00:16:44,560
Speaker 1: Yes, I think so. I think it seems to be.

361
00:16:44,720 --> 00:16:47,280
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think you feel bad for the coaches that

362
00:16:47,360 --> 00:16:50,960
Speaker 6: are personable, that you actually like and you like hearing

363
00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:52,160
Speaker 6: them even in a press conference.

364
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:53,800
Speaker 1: The ones with the punchable faces.

365
00:16:54,360 --> 00:16:58,600
Speaker 6: Josh McDaniels, those guys, the fan base is like bye

366
00:16:58,800 --> 00:17:00,960
Speaker 6: go And obviously he's he's a good coordinator.

367
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:02,200
Speaker 1: He's just not a good head coach.

368
00:17:02,280 --> 00:17:05,879
Speaker 6: So it just depends the relationship those coaches have with

369
00:17:05,920 --> 00:17:06,680
Speaker 6: their fan base.

370
00:17:07,040 --> 00:17:09,920
Speaker 3: I went healthy approach, Rich, Like the logical approach would

371
00:17:09,920 --> 00:17:12,159
Speaker 3: be like, yeah, he's got to move on, and you

372
00:17:12,320 --> 00:17:15,040
Speaker 3: just root for him to do well somewhere else. Right, Alright, well,

373
00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:18,320
Speaker 3: listen when when he's on peting we're talking about because

374
00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,520
Speaker 3: let's be honest, Mike McDaniel. You know, he may have

375
00:17:20,520 --> 00:17:24,120
Speaker 3: been driving past bars in Buffalo after that victory last week.

376
00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 1: And we might talk about that. He's he's a likable guy.

377
00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,840
Speaker 3: But remember we talked about when they're losing, his sarcastic

378
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:32,000
Speaker 3: charm doesn't work as much.

379
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:33,760
Speaker 1: I mean, do you really want to see that guy

380
00:17:33,760 --> 00:17:34,440
Speaker 1: and lose his gig?

381
00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:36,920
Speaker 3: You know his story, how he's cleaned up his whole

382
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:40,480
Speaker 3: life and everything, and Mike McDaniel coordinator, his whole come up,

383
00:17:41,119 --> 00:17:43,480
Speaker 3: gets his opportunity in Miami. You don't really want to

384
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:45,880
Speaker 3: see him fail. But as a fan, you don't give

385
00:17:45,920 --> 00:17:48,640
Speaker 3: an s You're like, just get a you're a Dolphins fan,

386
00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:53,159
Speaker 3: You're like saying, get rid of him, because fandom is illogical.

387
00:17:53,240 --> 00:17:56,080
Speaker 1: So I think that's the caveat he rich, he's out

388
00:17:56,080 --> 00:17:56,520
Speaker 1: the window.

389
00:17:56,640 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 6: They cannot chase your favorite and your best players out

390
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 6: of the organization. Yeah, And that was the rub on

391
00:18:03,040 --> 00:18:06,840
Speaker 6: why I mentioned Josh McDaniels. He chased away three Pro

392
00:18:06,920 --> 00:18:11,120
Speaker 6: bowlers off that Raider squad. Players did not mix well

393
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:14,439
Speaker 6: with him. It was a bad locker room. So Nico,

394
00:18:14,840 --> 00:18:18,840
Speaker 6: you know, obviously chasing away their best player. And I

395
00:18:18,840 --> 00:18:21,400
Speaker 6: don't think Dallas is ever going to forgive him for that.

396
00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:24,000
Speaker 6: And now you guys are saying, maybe it could be

397
00:18:24,040 --> 00:18:27,760
Speaker 6: a blessing and decide in you know, a blessing in

398
00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:31,200
Speaker 6: disguise to get another start somewhere else and to be humbled.

399
00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,520
Speaker 6: But is another NBA organization going to give Nico another

400
00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:37,040
Speaker 6: shot after that big of a swing and a miss.

401
00:18:37,240 --> 00:18:39,480
Speaker 6: Anthony Davis is a huge part of this. He's not

402
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,119
Speaker 6: playing again right now, he's hurt again.

403
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:44,480
Speaker 2: Yeah, probably not. But the silver lining in life is

404
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:47,359
Speaker 2: that you might end up somewhere better off, right, whether

405
00:18:47,400 --> 00:18:49,439
Speaker 2: it be in a relationship or a job. That's just

406
00:18:49,520 --> 00:18:54,760
Speaker 2: the silver lining for anyone listening. For Nico Harrison. Yeah

407
00:18:54,800 --> 00:18:57,399
Speaker 2: he had his chance, man, but you know what, he

408
00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,600
Speaker 2: made his money, He made his millions. And I think

409
00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:04,040
Speaker 2: you know who's really pulling dubs this week, Luca because

410
00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:07,440
Speaker 2: he gets that redemption, that revenge, that storyline that he

411
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:08,760
Speaker 2: knew he was going to get all along.

412
00:19:08,880 --> 00:19:11,560
Speaker 1: Oh dude, a mistake.

413
00:19:11,840 --> 00:19:14,840
Speaker 3: He's playing slapass with Austin Reeves, hitting half court shots

414
00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:17,360
Speaker 3: like you know, living it up, and Lebron's not even

415
00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:17,800
Speaker 3: there yet.

416
00:19:17,800 --> 00:19:19,520
Speaker 1: So it's like this is but dude.

417
00:19:19,400 --> 00:19:22,200
Speaker 2: We all got to use that as motivation, that kicking

418
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:25,199
Speaker 2: the ass like Luca was let go. You know, we

419
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:28,560
Speaker 2: got to use that motivation to inspire all of us

420
00:19:28,600 --> 00:19:30,160
Speaker 2: to get to that next level. I don't care if

421
00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:32,639
Speaker 2: that's a negative way to be motivated. Whatever motivates you,

422
00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:34,800
Speaker 2: I think is a good thing. And if if that's

423
00:19:34,840 --> 00:19:38,600
Speaker 2: to show someone or somebody or some company that they

424
00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:41,159
Speaker 2: made a mistake by letting you go, let it motivate, you,

425
00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,760
Speaker 2: let it let your fire because Luca got that redemption

426
00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,159
Speaker 2: that he wanted. And he's like, you see, that's a

427
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:48,840
Speaker 2: full admission that that was the biggest mistake your organization

428
00:19:48,920 --> 00:19:49,520
Speaker 2: ever made.

429
00:19:49,760 --> 00:19:53,240
Speaker 3: Well the Giant yesterday with day bol the Mavericks today

430
00:19:53,600 --> 00:19:55,879
Speaker 3: with Nico Harrison. But did both teams get it right?

431
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:58,400
Speaker 3: The answer is yes, you had to move on from

432
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:01,480
Speaker 3: these guys. But as a fan and like, it's weird

433
00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:03,919
Speaker 3: to you know, cheer the demise of a guy's career,

434
00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:06,840
Speaker 3: But yo, as a fan, you're illogical onto the next

435
00:20:06,920 --> 00:20:07,919
Speaker 3: Let's win, win, win.

436
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:08,760
Speaker 1: That's what it's all about.

437
00:20:09,240 --> 00:20:11,639
Speaker 3: And the second layer, Like Cavino and I said, if

438
00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,320
Speaker 3: you've never been dumped and you've never been fired from

439
00:20:14,359 --> 00:20:16,359
Speaker 3: a job, and I bump into you, I'm gonna have

440
00:20:16,359 --> 00:20:18,520
Speaker 3: a hard time trusting you because I feel like there's

441
00:20:18,520 --> 00:20:21,359
Speaker 3: something you learn from those experiences. If a guy or

442
00:20:21,359 --> 00:20:23,359
Speaker 3: a woman you ever see like a hot chicken, she's like, yeah,

443
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,159
Speaker 3: no one's ever dumped me. I'm like, yeah, you know what,

444
00:20:25,240 --> 00:20:27,480
Speaker 3: then you've never been humbled there, buddy, Yeah, you're way

445
00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:30,359
Speaker 3: full of yourself. You're way full of yourself, and no.

446
00:20:30,760 --> 00:20:32,679
Speaker 2: Guy has ever left me. It's like, oh, okay, well

447
00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 2: who okay, I'm thinking about Cooper Flag too. There's he

448
00:20:36,760 --> 00:20:38,560
Speaker 2: must feel a little bit like he's got some blood

449
00:20:38,600 --> 00:20:40,920
Speaker 2: on his hands, Like, yeah, maybe if I played.

450
00:20:40,960 --> 00:20:43,200
Speaker 1: A little better and still have a job.

451
00:20:43,720 --> 00:20:46,520
Speaker 2: Because the only solution for Nico Harrison to keep his

452
00:20:46,600 --> 00:20:48,840
Speaker 2: job was to win, and that's not what they've been

453
00:20:48,840 --> 00:20:51,560
Speaker 2: able to do. And you have to admit, like, we

454
00:20:51,640 --> 00:20:53,639
Speaker 2: made a mistake, and at three and eight right now,

455
00:20:53,920 --> 00:20:56,800
Speaker 2: I guess they have. So that's the story. Back to

456
00:20:56,880 --> 00:20:58,920
Speaker 2: back days. Why are we harping on this so hard?

457
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:04,159
Speaker 2: We got back to where performance mattered Day Bowl. Yeah,

458
00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:06,800
Speaker 2: the way they lost, as I mentioned yesterday's not just

459
00:21:06,880 --> 00:21:09,720
Speaker 2: the loss, it's the way they lost and the way

460
00:21:09,760 --> 00:21:13,520
Speaker 2: they were losing games fired Nico Harrison. You let go

461
00:21:13,640 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 2: of a legendary, generational type player. You're hoping it all

462
00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:21,280
Speaker 2: pans out. It doesn't fired.

463
00:21:21,800 --> 00:21:23,960
Speaker 1: Yeah, your thoughts and coves.

464
00:21:24,160 --> 00:21:27,440
Speaker 3: It's also the fact that, well I'm not saying neither

465
00:21:27,520 --> 00:21:31,119
Speaker 3: were unexpected, but at the time of the season, like

466
00:21:31,160 --> 00:21:33,480
Speaker 3: I think people thought that Dable would finish the year,

467
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:35,400
Speaker 3: and I think other people thought, like Nico Harrison would

468
00:21:35,400 --> 00:21:37,439
Speaker 3: get a little more time. So I think that in

469
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:39,600
Speaker 3: itself also is like oh wow, like they you know,

470
00:21:39,680 --> 00:21:43,359
Speaker 3: they finally said up today's day and listen. Like any relationship,

471
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,280
Speaker 3: not to tie it to relationships always, but how many

472
00:21:46,320 --> 00:21:49,800
Speaker 3: times have a relationship ended on like as we call

473
00:21:49,840 --> 00:21:52,560
Speaker 3: it the dryer light theory, it's not the big fight.

474
00:21:52,680 --> 00:21:54,919
Speaker 3: Sometimes it's that little thing, like you fought over a

475
00:21:55,240 --> 00:21:57,080
Speaker 3: I remember getting in a fight with an ex girlfriend

476
00:21:57,080 --> 00:22:00,720
Speaker 3: because she wentn't close the dryer and there was a

477
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:02,600
Speaker 3: little light that stayed on and I asked her about

478
00:22:02,640 --> 00:22:03,960
Speaker 3: it and she flipped out on me and I was like,

479
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:07,280
Speaker 3: we did what broke up? We're a dryer light. No,

480
00:22:07,480 --> 00:22:09,720
Speaker 3: it was the bigger picture. But I guess when you

481
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:12,320
Speaker 3: start three and eight, that's their dryer light.

482
00:22:12,840 --> 00:22:15,600
Speaker 2: That's their drying light. And I have more questions based

483
00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:18,040
Speaker 2: on this story. Is the biggest story going on so

484
00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:21,800

545
00:25:30,040 --> 00:25:32,680
Speaker 4: I was Bill Belichick in Chapel Hill earlier today. Guys,

546
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:33,160
Speaker 4: back to you.

547
00:25:33,200 --> 00:25:35,560
Speaker 1: Thank you. Dan. Is that his modern day version of

548
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:36,440
Speaker 1: Onto Cincinnati.

549
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:39,680
Speaker 4: Exactly, It's just wake Forest now to.

550
00:25:39,640 --> 00:25:40,359
Speaker 1: Me, Cove.

551
00:25:41,920 --> 00:25:43,520
Speaker 3: I know he says he wants to stay put, and

552
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:45,080
Speaker 3: there's the buyouts and the options.

553
00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:47,680
Speaker 1: There's got to be something a little appealing. Though.

554
00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:50,640
Speaker 3: If you're Bill Belichick, knowing that Dable and this team

555
00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:53,359
Speaker 3: really under delivered, and you know that they have pieces,

556
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:57,119
Speaker 3: they have draft picks, they have potential, wouldn't that be

557
00:25:57,160 --> 00:25:58,760
Speaker 3: a nice little what do I call it?

558
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 1: Spot a swansong? Your thing is that? Is that what

559
00:26:00,840 --> 00:26:01,160
Speaker 1: it is?

560
00:26:01,600 --> 00:26:06,159
Speaker 3: Yes, Bill Belichick's swan song, going back to where he

561
00:26:06,200 --> 00:26:07,959
Speaker 3: started with Bill Parcels in the eighties.

562
00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:10,119
Speaker 8: Yeah, warn a Cincinnati.

563
00:26:10,680 --> 00:26:12,760
Speaker 4: I think he would absolutely love it. I think he's

564
00:26:12,800 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 4: always wanted to go back to the Giants. When you

565
00:26:15,600 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 4: see some of those documentaries, the way that he talks

566
00:26:18,280 --> 00:26:22,520
Speaker 4: about the Giants stays his boat has eight rings. It's

567
00:26:22,600 --> 00:26:24,359
Speaker 4: the sixth that he wanted with the Patriots and the

568
00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,720
Speaker 4: two that he won is the defensive coordinator of the Giants.

569
00:26:26,880 --> 00:26:29,080
Speaker 1: It meant so much to Yeah, it would you know,

570
00:26:29,119 --> 00:26:30,520
Speaker 1: bookend his career perfectly?

571
00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:33,320
Speaker 4: Yes, I think he would absolutely love it and leave

572
00:26:33,359 --> 00:26:35,800
Speaker 4: in a millisecond. It's just a matter of whether ownership

573
00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:36,600
Speaker 4: would want him or not.

574
00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,760
Speaker 1: Oh man, is he you know? All right?

575
00:26:39,760 --> 00:26:41,720
Speaker 3: Listen I have a question. Tom Brady's got vested injured

576
00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,360
Speaker 3: obviously in Danny G's Raiders. He's part of that team now.

577
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,960
Speaker 3: But isn't there a part of you Cove that thinks

578
00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:52,879
Speaker 3: Bill Belichick with that team, maybe Tom Brady, if he

579
00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:55,480
Speaker 3: wasn't vested with the Raiders, would be like Jackson Dart.

580
00:26:55,480 --> 00:26:56,960
Speaker 3: I know he seems like an old stiff, but I

581
00:26:57,000 --> 00:26:59,560
Speaker 3: promise you like he'll take you there.

582
00:27:00,040 --> 00:27:01,480
Speaker 8: I don't know, we'll se.

583
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:05,160
Speaker 1: I don't know, man, I don't know where Belichick's head's

584
00:27:05,160 --> 00:27:05,640
Speaker 1: really at.

585
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:09,359
Speaker 3: Imagine they imagine he starts coaching there and Jackson Dart

586
00:27:09,400 --> 00:27:11,359
Speaker 3: starts sleeping with Jordan Hudson.

587
00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:13,639
Speaker 1: I don't know.

588
00:27:13,760 --> 00:27:16,280
Speaker 2: I don't think she did anything good for his reputation.

589
00:27:16,760 --> 00:27:19,680
Speaker 2: You know, I'll get him a high five forgetting with

590
00:27:19,720 --> 00:27:22,440
Speaker 2: her because she's kind of hot, But as far as

591
00:27:22,440 --> 00:27:27,600
Speaker 2: his professional reputation, no bueno. So interesting story. Now back

592
00:27:27,640 --> 00:27:30,360
Speaker 2: to Nico Harrison because we have a few phone calls

593
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,639
Speaker 2: at eighty seven seven ninety nine on Fox. He was

594
00:27:32,680 --> 00:27:36,880
Speaker 2: fired nine months after they got rid of Luca, and

595
00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,520
Speaker 2: we post so many questions and theories based on this.

596
00:27:40,920 --> 00:27:44,439
Speaker 2: Are you, as a fan ever happy? Are you truly

597
00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:46,679
Speaker 2: happy that you got what you wanted. If that's what

598
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:49,240
Speaker 2: you wanted, is that wrong to be happy or a

599
00:27:49,320 --> 00:27:52,000
Speaker 2: sports So we throw logic out the window. We established that,

600
00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:54,520
Speaker 2: and Rich, have you ever been the reason? I was

601
00:27:54,560 --> 00:27:56,800
Speaker 2: thinking about this too? Have you ever been the reason

602
00:27:56,840 --> 00:27:59,480
Speaker 2: of someone getting fired? Because anytime I have real complaints,

603
00:27:59,480 --> 00:28:02,920
Speaker 2: like real plants, I always buffer that complain with, Look,

604
00:28:02,960 --> 00:28:05,040
Speaker 2: I'm not trying to get anybody fired because I don't

605
00:28:05,080 --> 00:28:08,480
Speaker 2: want that karma. I don't want that revenge that guy

606
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:10,439
Speaker 2: trying to get me for getting fired.

607
00:28:10,560 --> 00:28:11,880
Speaker 1: I don't want any of that in my life.

608
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:13,520
Speaker 2: So I was like, hey, look, I'm not trying to

609
00:28:13,520 --> 00:28:15,800
Speaker 2: get anybody fired, but this guy did X, Y, and Z.

610
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:17,800
Speaker 1: Were you ever the reason? No?

611
00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:19,720
Speaker 3: But I'll tell you what, much like you said, there

612
00:28:19,720 --> 00:28:21,800
Speaker 3: have been times at one of our old jobs, about

613
00:28:21,800 --> 00:28:25,800
Speaker 3: a decade ago, we saw a guy. We thought the

614
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:27,840
Speaker 3: guy was like missing in debt. He didn't show up

615
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:29,879
Speaker 3: to an event to find out he's on like a bender,

616
00:28:29,960 --> 00:28:33,080
Speaker 3: drinking and partying, and we covered for him as a

617
00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:35,719
Speaker 3: way to be like, hey, listen, Olive branch, like yo,

618
00:28:35,760 --> 00:28:37,160
Speaker 3: we looked out for you, and I thought that would

619
00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:38,560
Speaker 3: make us tighter, and it didn't.

620
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:41,520
Speaker 2: It didn't, y know, we got a really bad story. Craig,

621
00:28:41,600 --> 00:28:43,200
Speaker 2: hold on one second because I'm gonna get to your

622

623
00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:50,560

624
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:55,320
Speaker 2: York City, sny sn Y and one of the production

625
00:28:55,440 --> 00:28:58,960
Speaker 2: dudes fell asleep on the set and we're on the

626
00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:02,560
Speaker 2: air and we see it and we're like yo, we

627
00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:06,280
Speaker 2: point at him and the camera guy, yeah, he zooms

628
00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:07,480
Speaker 2: in on the guy sleeping.

629
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 1: We just thought it was funny. We did. We thought

630
00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:12,520
Speaker 1: it was funny. We weren't calling him out. We were

631
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:15,360
Speaker 1: friends with the guy. We weren't like attle tailing. We

632
00:29:15,360 --> 00:29:17,360
Speaker 1: were like, yo, he fell asleep. What a mess?

633
00:29:17,400 --> 00:29:19,200
Speaker 3: I mean, you know, for people listening to our show,

634
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:20,920
Speaker 3: they know the nature of our show that if let's say,

635
00:29:20,960 --> 00:29:22,920
Speaker 3: during a break, I was Sam fell asleep, it would

636
00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 3: become a joke.

637
00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:24,880
Speaker 1: We weren't be like, you know.

638
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:27,680
Speaker 2: Yo, dude. That was the final straw, and that got

639
00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:30,560
Speaker 2: him fired. And we felt so bad about that. We

640
00:29:30,600 --> 00:29:33,400
Speaker 2: really did. But we had a you know, reason with ourselves,

641
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,320
Speaker 2: like na like it was coming and that was just

642
00:29:35,360 --> 00:29:38,680
Speaker 2: the last straw. But we did feel bad about it.

643
00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:40,920
Speaker 2: So if you got what you wanted or you got

644
00:29:40,920 --> 00:29:43,520
Speaker 2: somebody fired? Is it okay to feel good about that?

645
00:29:43,920 --> 00:29:46,920
Speaker 2: So Nico Harrison, he'll be just fine. He made his money,

646
00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:51,360
Speaker 2: but he lost his job. And Craig and Montana, Yeah,

647
00:29:51,400 --> 00:29:55,120
Speaker 2: say hey Sam, wake up, Sam, come on man, get top.

648
00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:59,720
Speaker 2: You're talking about Sleepy brouh. Craig and Montana. You're on

649
00:29:59,720 --> 00:30:01,040
Speaker 2: the you know and Rich show.

650
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:04,480
Speaker 5: Hi, guys, love you. Thanks for to answer my call.

651
00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:05,480
Speaker 1: Thanks.

652
00:30:06,000 --> 00:30:06,080
Speaker 3: So.

653
00:30:06,200 --> 00:30:08,680
Speaker 5: My little story is I was dating two girls about

654
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:12,920
Speaker 5: twenty years ago, and one was a dancer professional and

655
00:30:13,560 --> 00:30:14,680
Speaker 5: one of the hairstylists.

656
00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:17,320
Speaker 3: And basically, hold on, hold on when you say when

657
00:30:17,360 --> 00:30:19,440
Speaker 3: you say dancer professional, do you mean like in the

658
00:30:19,480 --> 00:30:20,720
Speaker 3: ballet or a really good.

659
00:30:20,560 --> 00:30:23,880
Speaker 5: Stripper like around the pole?

660
00:30:24,440 --> 00:30:25,960
Speaker 1: Oh? Okay, okay, I thank you it okay, I just

661
00:30:26,120 --> 00:30:28,800
Speaker 1: rich kind of professional. Yes, yeah, okay, yes.

662
00:30:29,400 --> 00:30:33,520
Speaker 5: And I was a heavy metal head And basically the

663
00:30:33,600 --> 00:30:37,680
Speaker 5: dancer girlfriend was huge in the Metallica and I was

664
00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:42,560
Speaker 5: into Pantera, which did not mesh with Metallica in my brains.

665
00:30:42,640 --> 00:30:45,400
Speaker 5: And so basically I had to make a decision, and

666
00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:50,280
Speaker 5: I chose to fire the dancer and and I chose

667
00:30:50,320 --> 00:30:52,160
Speaker 5: the hair duster and I'm married to her twenty years

668
00:30:52,160 --> 00:30:52,640
Speaker 5: to this day.

669
00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:55,640
Speaker 3: So wow, you should that's a story of romance. You

670
00:30:55,640 --> 00:30:56,920
Speaker 3: should have told that at your wedding, I hope.

671
00:30:56,920 --> 00:30:56,960
Speaker 1: So.

672
00:30:57,960 --> 00:31:03,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, So she was fired basically because she didn't like Pantas,

673
00:31:03,800 --> 00:31:06,440
Speaker 2: she didn't like Metallica the way you like Metallica, Cove.

674
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:08,680
Speaker 3: You know, all these stories were talking about tie together,

675
00:31:09,080 --> 00:31:11,800
Speaker 3: Nico Harrison, Brian Dable, because what happens after you get

676
00:31:11,800 --> 00:31:15,280
Speaker 3: fired then begins the mission for what's next, and it

677
00:31:15,280 --> 00:31:17,160
Speaker 3: does tie into the Bill Belichick thing. I know, it's

678
00:31:17,240 --> 00:31:20,560
Speaker 3: just a rumor. And he quickly was like, antoake forrest wherever.

679
00:31:21,120 --> 00:31:23,680
Speaker 1: But you don't think, well, it would be a really

680
00:31:23,840 --> 00:31:27,800
Speaker 1: bad taste to entertain that while he's still working as

681
00:31:27,800 --> 00:31:28,600
Speaker 1: a college coach.

682
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:33,280
Speaker 3: Agreed, right, But you don't think there's something enticing, Like

683
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:35,760
Speaker 3: if there weren't an NFL job, like den Byer said,

684
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:38,160
Speaker 3: if there weren't NFL job New York where he started

685
00:31:38,200 --> 00:31:42,400
Speaker 3: with Parcel, Like everything about that situation seems like, oh,

686
00:31:42,440 --> 00:31:43,360
Speaker 3: you got Jackson Darda.

687
00:31:43,920 --> 00:31:46,160
Speaker 1: He really wants to say, damn Scibby, get me out

688
00:31:46,200 --> 00:31:47,400
Speaker 1: of here. Yeah.

689
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:51,040
Speaker 3: Absolutely, God do you imagine just paying the as Jordan

690
00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:51,960
Speaker 3: Hudson in New York City?

691
00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:55,960
Speaker 2: I mean he wants to say, yes, absolutely, sign me up,

692
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:58,360
Speaker 2: but he can't do that. Nah, I mean I would

693
00:31:58,360 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 2: think that's what I think, That's what I would He

694
00:32:00,920 --> 00:32:04,920
Speaker 2: knows the NFL, he doesn't know college football.

695
00:32:05,040 --> 00:32:08,040
Speaker 3: When do you judge the trade completely? Danny G I

696
00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:12,000
Speaker 3: know you're only going at a three and eight Dallas

697
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:14,040
Speaker 3: Mavericks team and the Lakers look like again, looks like

698
00:32:14,080 --> 00:32:17,400
Speaker 3: they're having the most fun time you know in the West.

699
00:32:18,080 --> 00:32:18,240
Speaker 3: Is it?

700
00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:18,760
Speaker 1: Is it?

701
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:21,760
Speaker 3: Do you see how the Cooper flag move pans out?

702
00:32:21,800 --> 00:32:23,360
Speaker 3: Do you see how Luca if he wins one?

703
00:32:23,440 --> 00:32:25,520
Speaker 1: Like? When do we get to judge this trade? Is

704
00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:26,320
Speaker 1: it already judged?

705
00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:28,880
Speaker 2: I think it was judged as of right now every

706
00:32:29,040 --> 00:32:31,040
Speaker 2: article and just I mean, I don't know, if you

707
00:32:31,160 --> 00:32:34,400
Speaker 2: just think about it, this is a full admission that

708
00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:35,440
Speaker 2: they made a huge mistake.

709
00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:41,880
Speaker 1: That's really what it is. I mean, I guess you're right, yeah,

710
00:32:41,880 --> 00:32:42,160
Speaker 1: I mean.

711
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:43,800
Speaker 2: When you say, like you said, when you see Luca

712
00:32:43,880 --> 00:32:47,040
Speaker 2: playing slap bass with Reeves and hitting all these shots

713
00:32:47,080 --> 00:32:50,320
Speaker 2: and looking slim and trim, it's like he won the breakup.

714
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,400
Speaker 6: Luca made the history books for the most points scored

715
00:32:53,440 --> 00:32:56,360
Speaker 6: in a seven game span to open a season, and

716
00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:59,480
Speaker 6: then on the other side, Anthony Davis has heard again

717
00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:04,040
Speaker 6: not playing, and that was the one only complaint. As

718
00:33:04,080 --> 00:33:07,040
Speaker 6: a Lakers fan, I loved watching Anthony Davis, but he

719
00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:09,160
Speaker 6: was hurt more than he was on the court.

720
00:33:10,200 --> 00:33:12,520
Speaker 1: It's like, you know what that is.

721
00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:16,240
Speaker 2: That's like you left, uh, you left a woman and

722
00:33:16,280 --> 00:33:19,040
Speaker 2: then she got the glow up like Luca did, and

723
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,200
Speaker 2: then the one you're with is all hurt and hobbling

724
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:22,200
Speaker 2: around like Anthony Davis.

725
00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:24,200
Speaker 6: Yeah, don't, damn don't. If you call a lot of

726
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:26,600
Speaker 6: us fat, you're gonna see some results.

727
00:33:27,000 --> 00:33:29,120
Speaker 3: No, honestly, Yeah, if you if you call someone fat

728
00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:30,960
Speaker 3: when you break up with them, they're gonna they're gonna

729
00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:31,600
Speaker 3: look pretty sweet.

730
00:33:31,680 --> 00:33:32,760
Speaker 1: By the way, have you ever dated that.

731
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:34,160
Speaker 3: I don't want to get dirty here, but have you

732
00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:36,280
Speaker 3: ever dated a girl and then right after you, guys

733
00:33:36,280 --> 00:33:38,200
Speaker 3: break up, she gets new boobs and you're like, oh,

734
00:33:38,240 --> 00:33:38,800
Speaker 3: I want to see.

735
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:40,280
Speaker 1: Yeah, Luca got new boobs.

736
00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:43,600
Speaker 2: Man, he won, he won the breakup, and now you're

737
00:33:43,640 --> 00:33:47,320
Speaker 2: stuck with, like I said, hobbling injured Anthony Davis. Who

738
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:50,959
Speaker 2: I want to see he's got he's got deflated boobs,

739
00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:55,880
Speaker 2: all right, So trying to trying to give the silver

740
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:59,120
Speaker 2: lining of losing a gig and getting dumped. It builds character.

741
00:33:59,600 --> 00:34:01,560
Speaker 2: But this was bound to happen after a three and

742
00:34:01,600 --> 00:34:05,440
Speaker 2: eight start. Sports, all rationale, all logic is out the window.

743
00:34:05,600 --> 00:34:08,399
Speaker 2: Fire them because we want results. And that's the world

744
00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:11,440
Speaker 2: we live in. Grand opening, grand closing, back to back

745
00:34:11,520 --> 00:34:13,640
Speaker 2: days where people got fired. Here on the Covino and

746
00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:16,280

748
00:34:18,320 --> 00:34:22,680
Speaker 2: said something really interesting about Thursday Night Football. And I

749
00:34:22,719 --> 00:34:25,279
Speaker 2: don't think anybody's really gonna disagree with what he had

750
00:34:25,320 --> 00:34:28,239
Speaker 2: to say. But there's a reason why what he's saying.

751
00:34:28,239 --> 00:34:28,680
Speaker 1: I don't think.

752
00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,560
Speaker 3: I don't think anything will change, but we'll get to

753
00:34:30,640 --> 00:34:32,839
Speaker 3: John Gruden. I do want to disagree. This's a fun

Speaker 1: The way tire buying should be tire Cove.

Speaker 3: There's a John Gruden story. I want to get to

Speaker 1: Oh, mister Fuji, I was gonna say.

786
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:25,600
Speaker 3: I was gonna say Bobby the brain Heaton, but that's

787
00:36:25,680 --> 00:36:27,120
Speaker 3: I don't think that's the answer either.

788
00:36:27,239 --> 00:36:28,040
Speaker 1: No, you know what I was thinking.

789
00:36:28,040 --> 00:36:30,640
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, I was thinking about the Tyrack play the day,

790
00:36:30,760 --> 00:36:33,320
Speaker 2: and I was thinking about Grayson Allen just hitting threes

791
00:36:33,400 --> 00:36:35,600
Speaker 2: last day. What did he hit, like ten threes? Danny

792
00:36:35,640 --> 00:36:41,040
Speaker 2: g something like that. Yeah, so basketball heating up for sure.

793
00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,560
Speaker 2: Let's see manager of the year. That's a good one, man.

794
00:36:43,760 --> 00:36:44,319
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go.

795
00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:46,480
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go Schneider on the Blue Jays because of

796
00:36:46,520 --> 00:36:48,040
Speaker 3: what he did, I know.

797
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,120
Speaker 1: Especially from like worst to first, the way they were.

798
00:36:50,320 --> 00:36:53,640
Speaker 3: Yeah, and I think in the NL, I know the

799
00:36:53,920 --> 00:36:57,680
Speaker 3: finalists are Pat Murphy, the Brewers had their best record ever,

800
00:36:58,200 --> 00:37:01,600
Speaker 3: you know, Rob Thompson, the Phillies first place.

801
00:37:01,760 --> 00:37:02,400
Speaker 1: Great season.

802
00:37:02,719 --> 00:37:05,799
Speaker 3: But the fact that Terry Francona snuck in like an

803
00:37:05,880 --> 00:37:10,160
Speaker 3: average Reds team into the postseason. His record speaks for itself.

804
00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:12,799
Speaker 3: Frankie is just a great baseball guy. I would it

805
00:37:12,840 --> 00:37:16,439
Speaker 3: be shocked if they give it to Terry Francona Tito Tito.

806
00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:17,680
Speaker 1: Yeah, No, you're right.

807
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:21,120
Speaker 2: All of a sudden they were contending, and you sort

808
00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,160
Speaker 2: of looked at him like he's the reason for sure.

809
00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:25,239
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean he's the reason. I think.

810
00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,920
Speaker 3: You know, his leadership, you could argue is they were

811
00:37:27,960 --> 00:37:30,320
Speaker 3: a meager eighty what is it, eighty three and seventy

812
00:37:30,440 --> 00:37:33,080
Speaker 3: nine wildcard, But nonetheless, that's I think an under five

813
00:37:33,160 --> 00:37:34,480
Speaker 3: hundred team without good leadership.

814
00:37:34,680 --> 00:37:36,920
Speaker 2: I agree it's Cavino and Rich will keep you posted

815
00:37:37,000 --> 00:37:39,960
Speaker 2: dan Byral hook you up with the updates as they come.

816
00:37:40,200 --> 00:37:46,960
Speaker 2: But start thinking about this, As Timmy Nobreak says, get this, Yeah,

817
00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,799
Speaker 2: John Gruden is buzzing, chirp and reel out all over

818
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:54,239
Speaker 2: social media. This has gone viral and he's calling for

819
00:37:54,280 --> 00:37:58,920
Speaker 2: the NFL to eliminate Thursday night games, arguing that players

820
00:37:58,920 --> 00:38:02,920
Speaker 2: don't have enough time to and not only that the

821
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:06,320
Speaker 2: coaches don't. He says, no preparation, no time to recover,

822
00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,720
Speaker 2: no chance, get rid of these Thursday night games.

823
00:38:09,880 --> 00:38:10,640
Speaker 1: Dump them.

824
00:38:10,719 --> 00:38:12,719
Speaker 2: It's not fair to the players, it's not fair to

825
00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:17,680
Speaker 2: the coaches. And I saw this via barstool, I saw

826
00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:20,200
Speaker 2: it everywhere this morning. Danny G I know you're a

827
00:38:20,200 --> 00:38:24,080
Speaker 2: Gruden guy, you're a fan. I know this will probably

828
00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,200
Speaker 2: never happen because there's too much money to be made

829
00:38:26,280 --> 00:38:29,319
Speaker 2: and it's become a part of our life. But he

830
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:32,280
Speaker 2: is making sense, right, because we're getting a watered down

831
00:38:32,320 --> 00:38:33,400
Speaker 2: product as a result.

832
00:38:33,680 --> 00:38:37,440
Speaker 3: But Cavino partnerships with networks and streaming services and billions

833
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:41,160
Speaker 3: of dollars will totally eliminate any speculation. But what you're saying,

834
00:38:41,200 --> 00:38:44,279
Speaker 3: forget about will it happen, because answer is absolutely not.

835
00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,239
Speaker 3: But the reality is we like it because we're selfish fans, like, oh.

836
00:38:48,120 --> 00:38:49,839
Speaker 1: Sweet, another game to watch, right?

837
00:38:49,920 --> 00:38:52,480
Speaker 3: Better than get If you just get banged around on

838
00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:56,480
Speaker 3: a Sunday afternoon, on a Sunday afterne no home, like

839
00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:59,839
Speaker 3: four days later, you're you're throwing the pads on again

840
00:38:59,880 --> 00:39:01,880
Speaker 3: for another battle, like with a couple of days.

841
00:39:01,920 --> 00:39:04,520
Speaker 1: Like it doesn't feel right. I know it doesn't.

842
00:39:04,560 --> 00:39:07,720
Speaker 2: How certain things stick with you for whatever reason. George Kittle,

843
00:39:07,760 --> 00:39:08,680
Speaker 2: your boy Rich.

844
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:09,920
Speaker 1: Yes, I said the same thing.

845
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:10,160
Speaker 5: Yeah.

846
00:39:10,200 --> 00:39:11,640
Speaker 2: I always think of this because it was like it

847
00:39:11,680 --> 00:39:13,960
Speaker 2: was a really great visual and it made you think

848
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:15,880
Speaker 2: because you may have been there, you may have not

849
00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:18,360
Speaker 2: played in the NFL, but unfortunately you've probably been in

850
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:21,360
Speaker 2: an accident or two or three, and luckily you survived.

851
00:39:21,760 --> 00:39:26,080
Speaker 2: He says, recovering from a football game is like recovering

852
00:39:26,120 --> 00:39:28,960
Speaker 2: from a car accident. You know, when you're really banged

853
00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:30,719
Speaker 2: up and you're sore, and you really have to work

854
00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:33,839
Speaker 2: your way through that next week. So imagine getting all

855
00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:37,640
Speaker 2: banged up, being hit by the most dominant players in

856
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:40,560
Speaker 2: professional sports, then have to get back out there again

857
00:39:40,600 --> 00:39:44,160
Speaker 2: on a Thursday with not only physical recovery, but now

858
00:39:44,160 --> 00:39:45,920
Speaker 2: you have to mentally prepare for this game.

859
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:47,360
Speaker 1: It's not possible.

860
00:39:47,400 --> 00:39:50,440
Speaker 3: You're so right that feeling of you know, Luckily, like

861
00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:51,719
Speaker 3: you said, you don't get hurt, but you getting that

862
00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:54,359
Speaker 3: fender bender where you're like and my backstiff, my neck

863
00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:55,880
Speaker 3: hurts a little mine, Yeah, you're.

864
00:39:56,000 --> 00:40:00,640
Speaker 1: You feel off so out there play feel It.

865
00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:03,840
Speaker 3: Doesn't make sense, but it'll It'll never happen. But should

866
00:40:03,880 --> 00:40:07,960
Speaker 3: the NFL consider it? They won't, but I think they should.

867
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:10,080
Speaker 1: Okay, but is that a failed experiment?

868
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:12,880
Speaker 3: Then it brings up the thought of failed experiments in sports.

869
00:40:12,880 --> 00:40:14,279
Speaker 3: I'm gonna throw two out there, and then I want

870
00:40:14,280 --> 00:40:16,640
Speaker 3: to take all the feedback with you, Cove. I know

871
00:40:16,680 --> 00:40:19,640
Speaker 3: you loved it, but remember the glowing puck in hockey.

872
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:20,759
Speaker 1: I did like it.

873
00:40:20,840 --> 00:40:24,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, I did like it, but apparently I was the

874
00:40:24,239 --> 00:40:25,080
Speaker 2: only guy that liked it.

875
00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:29,960
Speaker 3: Another one was past interference challenges because we realized that

876
00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:33,480
Speaker 3: on any given play there's some type of ticky TACKI

877
00:40:33,560 --> 00:40:35,480
Speaker 3: push or pull and it was very hard to do.

878
00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:37,959
Speaker 3: And they said, you know what, it just doesn't work.

879
00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:41,319
Speaker 3: Challenging a past interference call failed experiment. So if you

880
00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:44,959
Speaker 3: have other quote failed experiments in sports, yoh, let's chop

881
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:45,319
Speaker 3: it up.

882
00:40:46,200 --> 00:40:48,279
Speaker 1: Do you give it up or do you make it better? Right?

883
00:40:48,320 --> 00:40:50,720
Speaker 2: I think the NFL has to figure something out because

884
00:40:50,800 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 2: he's right and everything he said he's right.

885
00:40:52,520 --> 00:40:53,600
Speaker 1: Now think about it and give us a call.

886
00:40:53,640 --> 00:40:55,759
Speaker 2: Eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox we got more

887
00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:58,480
Speaker 2: Cavino and Rich Next on Fox Sports Radio
