Speaker 1: to AFC North Football, and some thoughts as we get
Speaker 1: into Week five of the NFL have a Halloween question,
Speaker 1: and I have a baseball question. Halloween. First, what do
Speaker 1: you think the top four selling candies are that people
Speaker 1: give away to kids? What do you think the top
Speaker 1: four selling Halloween candies are? I read recently that the
Speaker 1: top selling product at Walmart is bananas. You believe that?
Speaker 1: Did you read that? Did you see that? I? No,
Speaker 1: I didn't see that, but I know bananas like the
Speaker 1: top seller in all pro from the client tele I'm
Speaker 1: sure it's not. I thought it was large bridgeton Mountain dew.
Speaker 1: It's not Mountain doing lardenough.
Speaker 3: Every year we see that Eminem's is the top of
Speaker 3: these lists.
Speaker 1: Old school regular Eminem's number three, number three on the
Speaker 1: top four. Sour Patch kids, they are not they're the top.
Speaker 1: They're the top selling non chocolate. Wait wait, you didn't
Speaker 1: say non chocolate versus chocolate. But they are not in
Speaker 1: the top four. But I'm me no, top three else
Speaker 1: it should be one hundred grand because it's one of
Speaker 1: my favorites that appear every Halloween. But it's definitely Reese's
Speaker 1: Peanut butter cup that is your number one yeah selling candle.
Speaker 4: It's all it's all chocolate. So number one is Recius
Speaker 4: peanut Porter. Some people say in other parts of the
Speaker 4: country Receas.
Speaker 1: I was just to say, if you say you deserve
Speaker 1: a kick in, they give me you get deserve a
Speaker 1: kick in the dards if you say reces pieces, like,
Speaker 1: what's a pieces? That's what I just said. So two
Speaker 1: more in the top four, you're essentially your final four.
Speaker 1: Number one Esus peanut butter cups. Number three regular Eminems.
Speaker 1: It's gotta be like either Milky Way or Snickers. No,
Speaker 1: they're not in the top Uh, kinder Bueno. I'm sorry.
Speaker 4: What I never had k is like a like a
Speaker 4: TwixT or TwixT bar or a kid cap?
Speaker 1: Can I like a little kinder eggs? You prime? My
Speaker 1: kids love those little kids, the little toy. What do
Speaker 1: you say next, tobble roan. Let's see, all right, so
Speaker 1: we got reeses. What else?
Speaker 4: Eminem's, eminem straight, Minnie Hershey's chocolate bar.
Speaker 1: Do eminem peanuts up? Peters? Eminem's are number two? Okay,
Speaker 1: you got Eminem's are number two, So you're missing number four.
Speaker 5: My kids are always looking for the sour Patch packages
Speaker 5: every Halloween.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was, Sam just said that sour wintermelons count.
Speaker 3: I was answered in the studiocome.
Speaker 1: Oh does it go back to analytics nerds? No chocolate,
Speaker 1: not to waste time, you said it sort of Sam Kitkats, Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're the best kit Cats. It's always weird how certain
Speaker 1: ones make cameos during Halloween time, like Mister Goodbar and Crackle.
Speaker 5: And also certain candies are better when they're the mini size, right,
Speaker 5: you don't want the whole kit cat bar being said.
Speaker 1: Don't be a big slob starting now, because you're going
Speaker 1: to see all this on on Tammy from accounting's desks.
Speaker 1: She's gonna have a whole ball there and you're gonna
Speaker 1: want to eat him every day. Oh nono beatus, non chocolate.
Speaker 1: What are your favorite salar patch kids? And maybe like starbursts?
Speaker 3: Yeah, I like Jolly Ranchers.
Speaker 1: You know that, you know the starburs for Halloween coming
Speaker 1: Like it's like two in a little sleeve. If you
Speaker 1: get a pink and a red, that's like hitting. That's
Speaker 1: like a walk that's like hitting a walk off. If
Speaker 1: you get two pink reds, so you get two yellows,
Speaker 1: that's like striking out like the Yankees last night, that's
Speaker 1: like a two seven off suit. Right now, what if
Speaker 1: you grab a handful and you get like a banana
Speaker 1: laffy taffy and a yellow Oh that's like, that's like
Speaker 1: starting a bed Rosario over Ben Rice. Yeah, it's here's
Speaker 1: a guarantee, an observation. You're gonna notice this Halloween season,
Speaker 1: it's always the yellow candy that's left over.
Speaker 4: Guaranteed later this month we'll do our Halloween candy draft.
Speaker 4: Remember Travis joined us last year.
Speaker 1: All right, all right, I can't wait, can't wait. That
Speaker 1: being said, enjoy the season, one more season, postseason, and
Speaker 1: rest in peace. Jane Goodall who passed away. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: full question because I said, your boy Chappie, who seems
Speaker 1: to own the Yankees, holds the record for the fastest
Speaker 1: pitch ever thrown, one hundred and five point eight miles
Speaker 1: an hour. Now I think of Chapman and I think
Speaker 1: I remember where he started playing his career. I remember
Speaker 1: him being a Yankee because Cavino hated and loved him
Speaker 1: at the same time. Now he owns the Yankees as
Speaker 1: a Red Sox. So besides the Red Sox and Yankees,
Speaker 1: can you name the other teams he's played for? Because
Speaker 1: I thought of a cub I'm missing the Cubs is easy,
Speaker 1: all right? So you're Cubs when he won the World Series?
Speaker 1: Are the Cubbies?
Speaker 3: Yep?
Speaker 1: Can you think of who else he played for? When
Speaker 1: I say, Chapman, who do you think of?
Speaker 3: Oh? Yankees?
Speaker 1: Of course he was there.
Speaker 3: I don't, Yeah, I don't think.
Speaker 1: Of the other one that came to mind. Say it
Speaker 1: the Royals that comes to see you thought of the Royals?
Speaker 1: I did not. I was thinking of where he played
Speaker 1: his first like five or six season, the reds so
Speaker 1: started with the reds then Yankees, was a rental for
Speaker 1: the Cubs, went back to the Yankees. Ye, Royals. Now
Speaker 1: he's a Red Sox. But there are two teams in
Speaker 1: between one. I don't even know you would ever even
Speaker 1: picture or all this Chapmen wearing these collars?
Speaker 3: Did he play for the Cubs?
Speaker 1: Yes?
Speaker 3: He did? Okay?
Speaker 1: In the world said Danny, are you worry? Are you
Speaker 1: liking another planet? Wasn't there some controversy?
Speaker 5: Because when you're no, But I just put Gusts from
Speaker 5: the Berry on hold right now, I was gonna say, like.
Speaker 3: Danny's on a four minute today.
Speaker 4: Wasn't there some controversy when he was pitching for the
Speaker 4: Cubs that like he had the way he was pitching
Speaker 4: like could have cost them like the game or like
Speaker 4: remember I know he had some offield stuff too, but
Speaker 4: I'm talking about there was like something when he was
Speaker 4: with the Cubs that they could have blown it.
Speaker 5: I might be missing, I might be misremembering. Well, okay,
Speaker 5: how about this rich Did anyone say Texas?
Speaker 1: They did not? And that was the one I forgot.
Speaker 1: I forgot that he won a World Series with the
Speaker 1: Texas Rangers. He was on that squad. But the one
Speaker 1: that I couldn't think of, Caveno couldn't think of uh
Speaker 1: Bree was in the editing room. None of us remember
Speaker 1: a Raldish Chappie Chapman playing for the Pirates a year ago. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know who remember that. I can't even picture
Speaker 1: him in the in the in the yellow and black yellow.
Speaker 1: So anyway, he chapped in the difference makers so far.
Speaker 1: But we'll see what happens today. But the way, I
Speaker 1: don't want to rub it. In this game two starts
Speaker 1: in like a minute, so you you could have redemption,
Speaker 1: but when you're the bases loaded, no outs, you had
Speaker 1: to be positively thinking like all right, come on, base
Speaker 1: it and we got this with. You thought they were
Speaker 1: gonnat least, you know, put one or you had to
Speaker 1: figure something was gonna happen. Nothing happened like bases loaded,
Speaker 1: no outs in the bottom of the ninth at Home
Speaker 1: Yankee Stadium, the tradition. Like in my mind, I'm like, wow,
Speaker 1: what an opportunity for what base It ties it and
Speaker 1: then if they get a base hit, then it's still
Speaker 1: like first and second, no outs. The fact that three Yankees,
Speaker 1: two strikeouts and a pop up, I don't know, man,
Speaker 1: that was Yeah, it was horrible that it really was.
Speaker 1: That's why we're talking about it. Believe me, as a
Speaker 1: Yankees fan, I know that the national audience of Fox
Speaker 1: Sports Radio doesn't give a terrible Terry Funk about the Yankees.
Speaker 1: In fact, they're rooting against him. It was such a
Speaker 1: big deal. Care about the postseason, and yeah, it was
Speaker 1: a big story. It was a colossal failure last night.
Speaker 1: It never happened before. They had a tremendous opportunity to
Speaker 1: at least tie the game last night. Is u Is
Speaker 1: Aldon the first Yankee to ever rock a beard in
Speaker 1: the postseason? I would say there's a good chance of that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: on the mound for sure. Yeah. Yeah. So well, hey
Speaker 1: Red sox Yankee is about to get underway. We'll see
Speaker 1: what happens with Bello though, because Jashism has a statement
Speaker 1: to make tonight. He does well against him, and he'll
Speaker 1: prove that he should have been in the lineup last night.
Speaker 1: Hopefully tonight, let's say, had a Gus in the Bay Area.
Speaker 1: What's up, Gus?
Speaker 6: Hey, guys love this show. Thanks love that you gave
Speaker 6: a Dewey Finn quote to start your show. That was incredible.
Speaker 6: I just want to give some flowers to Eroll this Chapman.
Speaker 6: You talked yesterday about longevity and athletes, and this guy's
Speaker 6: been throwing triple digits for fifteen straight seasons.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I mean when you look at his Baseball reference,
Speaker 1: it is pretty impressive. Was there were times where you thought,
Speaker 1: all right, it's coming to an end. He's doing something right,
Speaker 1: and his the IRA this year is in the ones.
Speaker 1: So it's like sometimes you think, like, oh, maybe his
Speaker 1: best days are behind him because he's a veteran now.
Speaker 1: But he's he's wits out. He is in tremendous shape.
Speaker 1: The dude is jacked like John Carlos Stanton jacked, Chapman
Speaker 1: is jacked, and usually guys that lift that heavy and
Speaker 1: stay that chiseled get hurt a lot. And he's been
Speaker 1: able to figure out a way where he's still dominant
Speaker 1: and still a major factor for the team. So yeah,
Speaker 1: props to him. I just don't like him. If you remember,
Speaker 1: he left the Yankees hanging in the postseason was a
Speaker 1: no show with Boone. He had some issues, so I
Speaker 1: didn't like him with his tenure with the Yankees. But
Speaker 1: he's had a great career, no, no doubt. Let's how
Speaker 1: to Paul and Rhode Island.
Speaker 7: Hey gosh, you forgot about me the last three days.
Speaker 7: But it's okay. It's a time zone.
Speaker 1: It's fine.
Speaker 7: I love your show. I do love your show. If
Speaker 7: that baby, my grand kids.
Speaker 1: Thank you.
Speaker 7: Listen, listen. I'm gonna go with the Yankees again with
Speaker 7: the World Series, and as a Red Sox fan, we
Speaker 7: got we got one taken away. That's fine. But I
Speaker 7: love your your producer, I love your show. But I'm
Speaker 7: gonna tell you it's the money. It's the money. I'm
Speaker 7: gonna tell you. Money talks and the rest walks.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's a general rule in life. But what
Speaker 1: are you referencing?
Speaker 3: What what I'm.
Speaker 7: References if if we get lucky with the Yankees again
Speaker 7: and the World Series, they have to do it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, listen, if the Yankees find the way
Speaker 1: to win today, I think the American League is wide open.
Speaker 1: You just don't want an early exit. You don't want
Speaker 1: to get beat two games by your division and historic
Speaker 1: rivals at Yankee Stadium. I believe it was sewn Casey.
Speaker 1: I heard on Dan Patrick this morning, even from his perspective,
Speaker 1: he was saying he thinks the Yankees are going to
Speaker 1: pull away with the series despite what happened yesterday, just
Speaker 1: the way the matchups go moving forward and what they're
Speaker 1: capable of. But we'll see. The game has started now
Speaker 1: and let's go. And now we're gonna talk some NFL
Speaker 1: and a team time. Keep you posted on Yankees, Red Sox.
Speaker 1: Now my thoughts on Aaron Rodgers and the AFC North.
Speaker 1: I think it's funny how so much changes in such
Speaker 1: a short period of time. Now, before I give you
Speaker 1: my words a wisdom, I think we could sneak in
Speaker 1: a little prize here for everyone listening to Fox Sports Radio.
Speaker 1: It is Wednesday, and we're running late. I don't want
Speaker 1: to forget Mike's words of wisdom. So here's what we're
Speaker 1: gonna do. We're not going anywhere. We're gonna play Mike's
Speaker 1: words of wisdom right now. Then if you could repeat
Speaker 1: what Mike says word for word, you win that covene
Speaker 1: on Rich Fox Sports Radio Football and we'll go back
Speaker 1: to talking about NFL. So you want to just throw
Speaker 1: on some Mike's words of wisdom, let's do it. We
Speaker 1: do it every Wednesday. We try to spread some knowledge
Speaker 1: with our good pound Mike, who runs this place. It's
Speaker 1: time for the guy that runs this place.
Speaker 3: Just for clarification, guys, Big Mike does not run this place.
Speaker 3: He is not in charge of everything. He has no
Speaker 3: power over really anybody here. He does not run this place.
Speaker 1: It's Big Mike's words of wisdom on a Wednesday. Thanks
Speaker 1: for the clarification, Dan Bayer, all right, Mike's words a wisdom,
Speaker 1: Let it breathe, and here we go. If at first
Speaker 1: you don't succeed, perhaps skydiving is not for you, all right,
Speaker 1: So easy, breezy, beautiful, that's a nice Halloween treat for
Speaker 1: you if you can repeat that verbatim, you win a
Speaker 1: CNR on FSR nerve football and they're new and improved.
Speaker 1: So if you won in the past, they're different this season.
Speaker 1: So eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox to play
Speaker 1: eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. We don't even
Speaker 1: need to replay it because I think that was an
Speaker 1: easy one and a good one. All right, And while
Speaker 1: we take the phone calls Aaron Rogers, Now, Aaron Judge,
Speaker 1: Aaron Rogers? Is he the king of the AFC North,
Speaker 1: That's what Richi's saying. I mean, it's really interesting when
Speaker 1: you think about where we started this year, right and again,
Speaker 1: it just shows that in every sport NFL, Major League Baseball, NBA, NHL,
Speaker 1: hot dog gating, I mean, hot doog getting is really
Speaker 1: the only predictable sport because Joey Chestnuts just you know,
Speaker 1: eastside Sam. You never know the fact that right now
Speaker 1: the Ravens are one and three and Lamars banged up
Speaker 1: at least till maybe after that bye week. If they
Speaker 1: could escape at two and four and then have to
Speaker 1: go on a pretty sweet run, no one, but is
Speaker 1: that shit? What do you think the record will be
Speaker 1: at that point? You think, well, if you look at
Speaker 1: the Ravens. They got I believe, two games and then
Speaker 1: the bye. Okay, the two games the Ravens have coming
Speaker 1: up not easy. Let me let me take a quick
Speaker 1: old peek at the Ravens schedule coming up the Ravens.
Speaker 1: The Ravens schedule watching. Yeah, are we schedule watching? Sim
Speaker 1: The rich loves to look at the schedule. Game schedule
Speaker 1: watch it?
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Uh. They play on Sunday against the Texans. Texans are
Speaker 1: one and three. The games in Baltimore. If you just
Speaker 1: pound the ball with Derek Henry and hope to try
Speaker 1: to sneak away with a win two and three, two
Speaker 1: and three, then you play the Rams. I don't think
Speaker 1: you beat the Rams without Lamar Jackson four. Then you
Speaker 1: got to buy. And then after your bye you come
Speaker 1: back against the Bears. Who who knows how the Bears
Speaker 1: are gonna look over the next couple weeks, So you
Speaker 1: need to only split the next two to even be
Speaker 1: in the conversation. So when you talk about the AFC
Speaker 1: North and where we were, I think they could be.
Speaker 1: Three and four months ago, the Bengals started out hot
Speaker 1: and everyone said, yeah, this is the year. And then
Speaker 1: poor Joey Burrow and his turf toe out for at
Speaker 1: least three months. I call that a port Manzi knows
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about. Monzi, do you feel bad for
Speaker 1: Joe Burrows?
Speaker 8: I was so sorry.
Speaker 3: That was so funny.
Speaker 1: That was so freaking funny. Thank you, Hey, nobody Joe
Speaker 1: Burrow keeps about three months. So the Bengals went from
Speaker 1: this is it? How many people wrote down Joe Burrow
Speaker 1: as their MVP pick on the Fox Sports Radio in studio,
Speaker 1: She we have right, I mean a lot of people said.
Speaker 1: A lot of people said, everyone's comparing him to Andrew Luck.
Speaker 1: Sounds like Andrew bad luck Burrow not happened in Bengals.
Speaker 1: I mean they've got trash since he got, you know,
Speaker 1: taken out.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I'm hoping for the best, just for the sake of
Speaker 1: good football in his career. Lamar not from a Revenger
Speaker 1: the Nerds. No, Lamar Jackson hamstring injury means Cooper Rush
Speaker 1: is taken over by the way, you know. Lamar from
Speaker 1: Revenge of the Nerds was also in Cobra Kai in
Speaker 1: the original Karate Kid in the actual movie, Really Yeah.
Speaker 1: Lamar from the Revenger of Nerds through the Javelin was
Speaker 1: also in Cobra Kai. I mean, how cool. He's almost
Speaker 1: in the All Valley Karate Champion back in eighty four.
Speaker 1: He's almost as cool as the actor I never know
Speaker 1: his name who played Francis and Pee's Big Adventure. Who
Speaker 1: is also the guy that said look, it's Enrico Palazzo,
Speaker 1: who was also Chubb, who was also Chubbs and teen Wolf. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that guy, he might be the coolest. Yeah. So anyway,
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson out for weeks, Cooper Rush taken over. No
Speaker 1: one ever ever thought that they would drop all these
Speaker 1: close games, right. They lost to the Chiefs Lions at
Speaker 1: a tough early schedule, but lost all those games.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, I just got in your ear and said
Speaker 4: Mark Holton. Who's He's the guy who played He was
Speaker 4: also John Wayne Gacy in the movie Gasey.
Speaker 1: Oh man, that's an actor right there.
Speaker 3: Yeah he was.
Speaker 1: He was in Pee Wee's Brown and the Browns are trashed.
Speaker 1: They bench Flacco for Dylan Gabriel. They're still trying to
Speaker 1: figure it out. Shed Or Sanders is like being all
Speaker 1: silly and doesn't know what's going on there.
Speaker 3: He went full mime. That was so good.
Speaker 1: So, I mean that division who we thought was like
Speaker 1: this is the division, all of a sudden it looks
Speaker 1: like cheeks and there's Aaron Rodgers, as Colin Cowhart likes
Speaker 1: to point out, very unproductive in the big picture of quarterbacks,
Speaker 1: like his QB rating and you know where he assesses
Speaker 1: amongst the NFL quarterbacks not very high. That doesn't matter though,
Speaker 1: because they're off to a three and one start and
Speaker 1: now they're sitting on a buy. They come back and
Speaker 1: they are infirm control of the Seen North. Nice and
Speaker 1: it just shows you that everyone's like Aaron Rodgers, Oh,
Speaker 1: come on, they got Burrow and Lamar and you know
Speaker 1: Cleveland's gonna try to make some noise yo. Yeah, But
Speaker 1: did they really size up with the better teams or
Speaker 1: is it just a matter of these other teams win winning? Man?
Speaker 1: When someone's winning, I don't you know.
Speaker 5: And you can also say the Steelers are just a
Speaker 5: better ran organization than the Jets.
Speaker 1: Can we talk about where the Steelers go over the
Speaker 1: next couple of weeks. They're on a bye, then they
Speaker 1: play the Browns okay four, and then they play the
Speaker 1: Bengals without Burrow, Then they play the Packers and the Colts.
Speaker 1: Let's say they split those right, five and two. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but you're the first guy to point out like a
Speaker 1: week five and one or a week sick. Remember you
Speaker 1: were real hard on the Green Bay Packers one year
Speaker 1: they were thirteen and something. Yeah, but they're not that.
Speaker 1: I was hard on someone who was a soft way
Speaker 1: Packers were. They were with someone else. But I'm I'm
Speaker 1: I do get down on teams that have a like
Speaker 1: they're a soft team.
Speaker 4: That last year jan Packers went like they did not
Speaker 4: do well against their own division, but they had a
Speaker 4: lot of wins.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think there's certain teams whose record don't indicate how
Speaker 1: good or bad they really are. We really won't know.
Speaker 1: They might be King of the North, like you said,
Speaker 1: sounds a Game of the Thrones. They might be King
Speaker 1: of the North over King Jeoffrey. But how do they
Speaker 1: signe up against other really good teams? I know, but
Speaker 1: that's really what I'm wondering. But we talked about, Hey,
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, you remember we talked about like what's the goal? Oh,
Speaker 1: maybe if he just makes the playoffs, And I think
Speaker 1: I think this team is in. I mean, with Burrow out,
Speaker 1: you might as well just cancel out the Bengals. The
Speaker 1: Browns are, like I said, Cheeks and the Ravens have
Speaker 1: such a road ahead of them and a really tough schedule,
Speaker 1: and without Lamar that changes everything. You're putting the ball
Speaker 1: and the control of the game in the hands of
Speaker 1: Cooper Rush no offense. Aaron Rodgers is now the king
Speaker 1: of the AFC North until you tell me otherwise. And
Speaker 1: I find it hilarious because no one cares about it.
Speaker 1: We're paying attention to them, and I think, just secretly,
Speaker 1: that team's gonna be pretty good. Now, your thoughts on
Speaker 1: Aaron Rodgers, it's hard to debate that there are tops
Speaker 1: of the AFC North. Shows you injury, I think they're
Speaker 1: gonna be That all does to show you that with
Speaker 1: injuries and some mix ups and things here, that you
Speaker 1: never know what's gonna happen, right, I mean, your thoughts
Speaker 1: on that. But we need a winner for Mike's Wednesday
Speaker 1: Words of Wisdom?

Speaker 1: High Spot gives you something we call mid week Major.
Speaker 2: Covino and Rich gets you over the middle of the week.
Speaker 2: When mid Week Major, I love that we throw sports
Speaker 2: and pop culture headlines and topics at the fellas and
Speaker 2: it's like the kids say.
Speaker 7: That's so we definitely major.
Speaker 1: See it our scoring mid week major.
Speaker 5: I gotta go fast because Spotty said he needs like
Speaker 5: fourteen minutes today. He's gonna have to settle for seven though.
Speaker 5: All right, we hand things over to the two boys
Speaker 5: with the two big red love dice.
Speaker 1: Excuse me, man, boys, I just rolled the three and.
Speaker 3: Now it's a rich roll.
Speaker 1: What's that? I went?
Speaker 3: All right? That means Carinos. Hey, guys gets first take.
Speaker 1: Yeah, all right, and now it's like that rare occurrence
Speaker 1: where like you actually beat the dealer in Vegas.
Speaker 5: Right, two craps, ladies and gentlemen. The most famous man.
Speaker 5: There's a more famous woman, Judy Bloom Scott Swains, New Jersey,
Speaker 5: Spotty boy. Yeah, it's not hard to be more famous.
Speaker 5: All right, how you guys doing, Who's going first? Mel Covino?
Speaker 5: Let's see where should we start?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 9: You love handsome men, so we'll start with Rob Low.
Speaker 9: Oh maybe handsome, but his integrity may be in question.
Speaker 9: So Reds fans are seeing red after Low was spotted
Speaker 9: last night at last night's Dodgers game as they dominated
Speaker 9: the Reds ten to five, seemingly rooting for the Dodgers
Speaker 9: and against the Reds. On screen during Tommy Edmonds third
Speaker 9: inning home run, Lowe was wearing a twenty twenty four
Speaker 9: World Series Champion La hat. The only problem is low
Speaker 9: grew up in Ohio, and it's given interviews before where
Speaker 9: he has stated that he is a massive Reds fan,
Speaker 9: saying that he once even created his own number eight
Speaker 9: Joe Morgan shirt and bore that thing everywhere. So low
Speaker 9: has been, you know, a Los Angelino for years. He's
Speaker 9: been acting for years, regularly attends Dodgers games, and fans
Speaker 9: assumed his allegiance Liede with the.
Speaker 1: Reds midweaker major. I think he got so much flatforn
Speaker 1: a generic NFL. I thought that he had to make
Speaker 1: a choice here, So I can't blame him for that.
Speaker 1: I thought he was gonna wear a Rob Manford shirt. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it wasn't wear an MLB hat this time. Look, he's
Speaker 1: an Ohio guy, but he's so synonymous with Hollywood at
Speaker 1: this point here for fates he's been famous. He's a
Speaker 1: teenager basically, it's the Outsiders and probably before that. So
Speaker 1: I don't blame him for saying, hey, I have some
Speaker 1: loyalty to the Reds. But I'm a Dodgers guy. I've
Speaker 1: been out here in La my whole life and career,
Speaker 1: so I understand. I'm not mad at it. I think
Speaker 1: it's a mid story. I think it's mid because if
Speaker 1: you make a big deal about Rob Blow's alliance, that's
Speaker 1: that's mid of you. But it's a good story spot
Speaker 1: because you know, we always talk about allegiance on the show,
Speaker 1: very la of him, and I've had to come to
Speaker 1: grips with the fact that it's more in La than
Speaker 1: Rob Lowe. You had your chance, I've had. I've had
Speaker 1: to come to grips with the fact that I think
Speaker 1: my son Ben, who's five, likes The Dodgers.
Speaker 3: He's smart.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's an l a kid. We I bought MLB
Speaker 1: twenty five the show for his for his Nintendo switch.
Speaker 1: I was like, you know what instead of him on
Speaker 1: his iPad. I'm like, yo, me and you could play
Speaker 1: the show together. And he's like, dankt me the Dodgers.
Speaker 1: I'm like, but you mean the Mets. He's like, no,
Speaker 1: the Dodgers. I want to be Mookie and Freddy and
Speaker 1: I go, do you meet Lindor and Soda. I want
Speaker 1: to be a winner. So, I mean, you know, not
Speaker 1: Mookie Wilson, Mookie bets All. You know, you live somewhere
Speaker 1: long enough, you adapt. I I'm not going to do that,
Speaker 1: but I get it. Rob Low does he really care
Speaker 1: that much anyway? He's a Hollywood guy. He's a sports,
Speaker 1: very passionate. He is a very passionate sport. He's a
Speaker 1: cool dude. Yeah, he's he's a he's a you know,
Speaker 1: a man amongst men. Yeah, really is all right?
Speaker 9: Anyway, Sanders, I don't know if you saw this floating
Speaker 9: around getting some attention for being a man of no words.
Speaker 1: So Sanders spoke with.
Speaker 9: The media today and was asked about the Browns decision
Speaker 9: to bench Joe Flacco in favor of fellow rookie Dylan
Speaker 9: Gabriel ahead of this Sunday's game across the Pond in London.
Speaker 1: This is what he said.
Speaker 9: Exactly. He was seen just mouthing the answer on camera
Speaker 9: but not saying anything. He was even asked like if
Speaker 9: he could vocally express his feelings, and went on to
Speaker 9: keep mouthing the words, getting a kick out of himself,
Speaker 9: laughing the entire time. Clearly he wanted he thought he
Speaker 9: should be stepping in his did rookie, not the other guy.
Speaker 9: But Gabriel did, however, speak saying that he's excited for
Speaker 9: the opportunity, and Flacco said that while he never foresaw
Speaker 9: the move, he acknowledged that the team hasn't been performing
Speaker 9: very well the first four weeks. Go figure midweek er major.
Speaker 9: It's a major story. Everybody loves talking about s Geory Sanders.
Speaker 1: There's been quarterback controversy since day one surrounding him and
Speaker 1: this whole team. And what's the old saying spot Yeah nice? No, no,
Speaker 1: if you got nothing nothing nice to say, trick or
Speaker 1: treats mell like me. So I think he took that
Speaker 1: and had some fun with it. He'd be like, you know, yeah,
Speaker 1: I'd rather not say my true feelings otherwise if he did,
Speaker 1: he'd probably get more criticism. So he played it safe.
Speaker 1: I'm okay with it because at least he brought some
Speaker 1: some fun to it. I just feel dumb because I
Speaker 1: kept clicking my Instagram like, where's the volume, where's the
Speaker 1: what's my volume off?
Speaker 3: Maybe?
Speaker 1: Oh, this sounds video sound. Oh he's not talking. Oh listen, man,
Speaker 1: it's it's funny. But you could say, like a rookie
Speaker 1: movie these kids are young, right, so, but why are
Speaker 1: we surprised Dylan Gabriel was a higher draft pick than
Speaker 1: should or Sanders. He just comes with the flash. I
Speaker 1: think the funny part is he refused to be drafted
Speaker 1: by the Ravens because he didn't want to back up
Speaker 1: Lamar Jackson. Had he wet with them and didn't refuse it,
Speaker 1: he'd be starting for the next three weeks. And now
Speaker 1: he's backing up Gabriel. Yeah, that's that's ironic, you think
Speaker 1: for sure. So I would say major just because there's
Speaker 1: not much else going on in Cleveland, and clearly he
Speaker 1: thinks it should be him. He doesn't need to really
Speaker 1: express that. Yeah, all right, I'll go with Lebron.
Speaker 9: Lebron getting some backlash yet again. He does it so well,
Speaker 9: this time getting called out by fans for appearing on
Speaker 9: a live stream with popular streamer Twitch streamer kay sin.
Speaker 1: Is Sinat right. H Yeah.
Speaker 9: After Laker's head coach JJ Reddick held James out of
Speaker 9: practice due to quote glute nerve irritation, so as the
Speaker 9: team said back to practice, rehdd it said it will
Speaker 9: be a slower process easing Lebron back into the game
Speaker 9: due to his twenty two years of wear and tear
Speaker 9: on his body, said they were playing the long game
Speaker 9: with Lebron. Lebron, so he decided to head over to
Speaker 9: Sinat's Mafia Than three and appear on his stream where
Speaker 9: he shaved Snat's head. There were other celebrities moving through
Speaker 9: like Snoop Dogg, Mariah Carey, Kim Kardashian, So you know,
Speaker 9: maybe it would have been a better look if he
Speaker 9: kind of chilled off camera.
Speaker 3: But midweek er major.
Speaker 1: You know, most things involving Lebron are major, but this
Speaker 1: mid this feels like just feels like a mid story.
Speaker 1: I'm not following. Fine, I'll take it. He's right, it's mid.
Speaker 1: I just think the insinuation that after all the years
Speaker 1: and hard work and training and conditioning Lebron James put
Speaker 1: it puts in if you think some training with the
Speaker 1: Lakers at this stage, like if he's like, yeah, I'm
Speaker 1: a little out of it and then ends up on
Speaker 1: some streamers stream like, you know, at this point, were
Speaker 1: really questioning Lebron james dedication. Stop being ridiculous. Oh and
Speaker 1: by the way, basis load of Noel for the Red Sox.
Speaker 1: Doland just bounced to one hoper to first, and is
Speaker 1: that Bellinger that had to come off the bag? I
Speaker 1: think it was Oh wow, look at that bass juice
Speaker 1: for the socks. That that's major. I'm with you, what's it?
Speaker 1: He has a little belly ache. What's going on? He's
Speaker 1: got a glute nerve irritation? Yeah, I wasn't sure if
Speaker 1: it was an ass issue or is honestly his answers.
Speaker 1: You thought gluten intolerance gluten. I thought it was a
Speaker 1: gluten no gluten soler. He's got a butt problem. He's
Speaker 1: got a butt problem. So yeah, he does a little
Speaker 1: podcast instead. Whatever. We were, well, hey Monty, do you
Speaker 1: have a gut intolerance? He don't it don't. I'm good?
Speaker 1: All right? How are we doing? What's doing? Manci?
Speaker 8: For an update, As you mentioned, things getting interesting between
Speaker 8: between the Yankees and the Red Sox with Boston getting
Speaker 8: the bases loaded. They've got all their outs in this
Speaker 8: third inning, even though the Yankees are on the scoreboard.
Speaker 1: Ben Rice started things off with the two run shots.
Speaker 1: Remind me did he play yesterday?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: Okay, I was just I was just remind me. I
Speaker 1: forgot for a second.
Speaker 8: I wasn't trying to burn us I was Manny Machado
Speaker 8: hit a two run shots today and the Padre shut
Speaker 8: out the Cups three zero to force a game three.
Speaker 8: Guardians are forcing a game three against the Tigers. They
Speaker 8: scored five runs in the bottom of the eighth inning,
Speaker 8: capped off by a three run shot from Boat Naylor.
Speaker 1: Cleveland won that game six to one.
Speaker 8: I believe the Red Sox on the Muno still wars
Speaker 8: we're good, okay. I was like, I think they may
Speaker 8: have scored on yet not yet, okay. NFL News Commander's
Speaker 8: head coach Dan Quinn confirmed that Jayden Daniels has been
Speaker 8: medically cleared to return.
Speaker 1: He is on track to start Sunday against the Chargers.
Speaker 8: Chargers head coach John Harbaugh announced that Joe Alt with
Speaker 8: this high ankle sprain, is doubtful to play this week.
Speaker 8: Buccaneers running back Bucky Irving, dealing with an ankle sprain,
Speaker 8: was seen in a walking boot at practice, but he
Speaker 8: has not been ruled out for Sunday's game. Browns are
Speaker 8: benching quarterback Joe Flacco. They're starting rookie Dylan Gabriel as
Speaker 8: you mentioned, for Sunday's game in London against the Vikings
Speaker 8: by the way Cavino. Joe Flacco is technically the backup.
Speaker 8: It is not Shador Sanders. Oh wow, yes, so he
Speaker 8: is technically not even moved up yet. Joe Flacco is
Speaker 8: still the backup and the forty nine ers have rolled
Speaker 8: out everybody. Well, I'm just kidding Brock Pardy Jawan Jennings
Speaker 8: and Ricky Piersol for Thursday night football against the Rams,
Speaker 8: and Mac Jones will get the start. Yankees did get
Speaker 8: it out here, so Bass is still loaded by the
Speaker 8: Red Sox.
Speaker 1: But one out, two.
Speaker 8: To go for this inning.
Speaker 1: Guys, it's been fun. Missed you. Back to you. Thank
Speaker 1: you Yankees. Uh yeah, scored none with the Bassis juice
Speaker 1: last night, so maybe maybe it's your turn to shut
Speaker 1: him down. One out, one one and Trevor Story's up
Speaker 1: and his career at the basis load of Cavino not
Speaker 1: too shabby, he said, some grand salamis in his life.
Speaker 1: I want to just watch one more pitch and see
Speaker 1: if something good happen. Oh no, base it up the
Speaker 1: middle likely Yeah, one two scored two scored to too
Speaker 1: now as we're in the top of the wonderful Sorry
Speaker 1: to say that, buddy boy. We got more Kevin on
Speaker 1: Rich and a story about redemption in sports and entertainment,
Speaker 1: and it has to do with fitty cent. I'll explain.

Speaker 1: read because I was really feeling that fifty cent man, Amen, Man, Amen,
Speaker 1: quick reminder before we talk fifty cent tomorrow, we do
Speaker 1: Old School and fifty hits yo, every Thursday. It's already Thursday,
Speaker 1: damn starting the weekend early tomorrow early, Like mister Furley,
Speaker 1: we throw it back and reminisce. So please join us
Speaker 1: Manyana Old School in fifty hits every Thursday on the
Speaker 1: Cavino and Rich show, Getting You Involved eight seven, seven
Speaker 1: ninety nine on Fox. But I was Sam plays some
Speaker 1: fifty cent because I have a story. Well, he's infamously
Speaker 1: known to rock the microphone and for having arguably one
Speaker 1: of the worst pitches first pitches in baseball history. For
Speaker 1: your goofy Mets, he threw out the first pitch at
Speaker 1: City Field.
Speaker 3: And couldn't even really call it a pitch.
Speaker 1: I mean other than other than Mariah Carey and Baba
Speaker 1: Booie and yeah they You know, you have your infamous
Speaker 1: list of if it wasn't there one gymnast want that
Speaker 1: do like a flip and throw the ball right down
Speaker 1: into the ground like there are some legendary awful first pitches,
Speaker 1: and Fiddy said is synonymous with it. It's sort of
Speaker 1: like the joke I'm sure amongst his boys. But he's
Speaker 1: such a fit guy. You know, he's fifty cent. I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: fifty cent. You expect him to have some sort of athleticism. No,
Speaker 1: that's what he gets for being a false advertiser because
Speaker 1: he's always wearing a Yankees at So there he is
Speaker 1: in your Metz jersey, throwing that weak ass pitch. You
Speaker 1: and I've talked about, when is the one time you'd
Speaker 1: wear another jersey or hat or something. I said, if
Speaker 1: a team like I give you the example, if they said,
Speaker 1: if our affiliate in Saint Louis said Hey, Covino and
Speaker 1: Rich come throughout the first pitch. I'd throw a Cardinal's
Speaker 1: hat just to go out there and throw the pitch
Speaker 1: and be like, hey, everyone liked.
Speaker 3: I think you'd be real gangster if you kept a
Speaker 3: Mets hat on.
Speaker 1: Yeah. I think I'd wear a Yankees hat and a
Speaker 1: Willy McGee jersey. Yeah, but I mean that that just
Speaker 1: makes you look like an ungrateful ahole. Why I'm rocking
Speaker 1: the McGee. Then then they'd probably be like, no, thanks,
Speaker 1: you rather not throw out the first pitch? I think
Speaker 1: have you ever seen someone throw out the first pitch?
Speaker 1: Have you ever seen someone throw out the first pitch
Speaker 1: at your stadium and not wear your shirt? That would
Speaker 1: be disrespectful. It's like going to someone's house and bring
Speaker 1: It's like going to someone an Italian old lady's house
Speaker 1: and bringing your own food. All right, Well, I'm not
Speaker 1: trying to debate that. What we're trying to say is
Speaker 1: it's redemption. He does an appearance with you guessed it,
Speaker 1: the Savannah Bananas. He comes out singing in the club
Speaker 1: and all the Savannah Bananas and dancers are popping bottles
Speaker 1: of champagne. There has to be a pressure goat moment,
Speaker 1: I would think here for him. No, I think no pressure.
Speaker 1: What's over And I'll tell you why, because everyone's watching
Speaker 1: to see if he sucks even worse this time. He's
Speaker 1: with the bananas. It's light and fun. He's singing. It's
Speaker 1: a party. And I think if he throws out a
Speaker 1: bad first pitch, it's funny because it's like another bad one,
Speaker 1: a or redemption. I don't you think he wants to
Speaker 1: redeem himself? And you know what, he threw a good
Speaker 1: enough pitch, good enough, good, kind of like our show.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I think the pressure you're talking about Couvino would
Speaker 5: have been if he was at another MLB state fair.
Speaker 1: Yeah, fair enough, Okay, just a light, fun moment with
Speaker 1: the bananas. And you know what, it was a little outside.
Speaker 1: It wasn't like a dead on strike like George W. Bush,
Speaker 1: but it was it was good. He did a movement
Speaker 1: like the Queen did and naked gun. Yeah he didn't
Speaker 1: throw a screwball. But is he left e Is that
Speaker 1: what makes it look weird? He's lefty, right, so he
Speaker 1: throws it, but he looks like, let's say you're a righty.
Speaker 1: Oh wait, Waite the city Sence pigeon. Don't put Jazz
Speaker 1: Chisholmore bed.
Speaker 5: Rice on the lineup. It looked way better. It looked
Speaker 5: like Sandy Kofax like took him under his wing.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Again, it was a big improvement. He looked proud. He
Speaker 1: didn't give a little fist pump like, yeah, I got
Speaker 1: that out of the way, as you could see on
Speaker 1: our video again, Covino and Rich streaming live on our
Speaker 1: new YouTube channel, Covino and Rich FSR. Covino and Rich FSR.
Speaker 1: Well a loose up in a key spot with two
Speaker 1: on one out, the Yankees and Socks are tied. Your
Speaker 1: old pal Danny g Cody Bellinger was he cluttery you
Speaker 1: guys of the postseason.
Speaker 3: He was inconsistent for the Dodgers in the postseason.
Speaker 1: Play Wow, double steal for the Yankees, double Steve taking
Speaker 1: away the double play? Well, enjoy the game. Look, it's
Speaker 1: a it's practically a game seven about either of these teams.
Speaker 1: But you can feel the rivalry and the intensity. You
Speaker 1: really could like you'm bad. It's back, Like, honestly, I
Speaker 1: don't I don't care for either of the teams, but
Speaker 1: you can't argue that it's like the one of the
Speaker 1: top three rivalries in all sports. Yankees Red Sox postseason.
Speaker 1: It felt like it died down for a minute and
Speaker 1: now it's yeah, cool to see. There's a little hatred
Speaker 1: and no love loss there, so uh hey, something fun
Speaker 1: to watch. We'll see you guys manyana. Enjoy your Wednesday there,
Speaker 1: cheep baby, Let's go Yankees, see you in the Promised Land.
