Speaker 2: That's so said thirty six years old. Yeah, really really sad.
Speaker 2: So anyway, not to be a morning show geez pun intended. Yeah,
Speaker 2: we'll rock on there. Yes, let's let's talk of NFL
Speaker 2: right out the gate. In fact, NFL do we want
Speaker 2: to talk that much? And I say that because what gate?
Speaker 2: Stephen Dorf skate. Yeah, the Stephen Dorf skate, is he there?
Speaker 2: The greats are open NFL preseason. You and I were
Speaker 2: talking about this before the show with Danny. Danny, the
Speaker 2: whole theory that we know too much is really the
Speaker 2: whole crux of this conversation. We know too much. You've
Speaker 2: gone too far back in the day when we were younger,
Speaker 2: when you were a young little boy, when you were
Speaker 2: Dith a little boy. It's funny Mike Tyson always says
Speaker 2: that a dif little boy when you were now with
Speaker 2: this little boy cuts the motto, show me laugh of love.
Speaker 2: But you were just a little boy, like Mike Tyson. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you really didn't hear much about the preseason other than
Speaker 2: one Danny, maybe a little report here there.
Speaker 3: Like Yeah, I found this over the weekend.
Speaker 4: Somebody wrote, training camp used to mean you'd hear a
Speaker 4: couple of reports. Now every throw is filmed, every interception
Speaker 4: goes viral, every sideline interaction becomes body language analysis. Every
Speaker 4: rookie is either a future Hall of Famer or a bust.
Speaker 4: After eight preseason passes, and this was in response to
Speaker 4: ESPN publishing risers and Foller followers after one preseason game, one.
Speaker 2: Preseason game and fallers, all these assessments. It is too
Speaker 2: much and it has gone too far. As you said, Rich,
Speaker 2: there's no thing to you, no doubt about it. You know,
Speaker 2: maybe back in the day Scoops Callahan would have an
Speaker 2: update for you on the new rookie QB. And now
Speaker 2: it's like what the dude's routine is, what he eats
Speaker 2: for breakfast? You know, is he gonna make it or not.
Speaker 2: It's like, Yo, we don't even notice kid yet. He's
Speaker 2: taken five snaps and we're already saying he's a bust faller.
Speaker 2: He's definitely a faller faller. So I don't think there's
Speaker 2: any question. But you know, we're to blame. It's what
Speaker 2: the public wants. But you know what, Yeah, I was
Speaker 2: gonna say, it's like, welcome to the world of social media,
Speaker 2: where everyone's up, everyone's ass wants to know every little thing.
Speaker 2: For instance, even that little that's really rechis the culture
Speaker 2: we live. I mean, whether it was little or not.
Speaker 2: I know, he posted a funny meme whatle with a
Speaker 2: weekend Max Crosby and Kirk Cousins that little dust up
Speaker 2: in practice, we would never have known about even five
Speaker 2: ten years ago.
Speaker 4: Yeah, probably would have heard about it, but it would
Speaker 4: the actional news for a forty eight hour cycle.
Speaker 2: It's the evolution of the game, it's the evolution of
Speaker 2: our culture. It's the evolution of social media and the
Speaker 2: information we want. We also have to keep in mind, though,
Speaker 2: that a lot of the stuff is rumor based. You know,
Speaker 2: it's not necessarily accurate. You got a bunch of Jabbroni's
Speaker 2: on there who think they're reporters and they're not. They're
Speaker 2: just reporting from their bedrooms. Yeah, right, So we got
Speaker 2: to take that information for what it is, but there's
Speaker 2: no question that it's way way too much. I think
Speaker 2: social media is to blame for that, to be honest.
Speaker 2: You know, and we've seen the evolution, like I said,
Speaker 2: of the game meeting, think of what the draft used
Speaker 2: to be and what it is now. So enforce preseason
Speaker 2: is a much bigger thing. And and just the culture
Speaker 2: of it just in general sports has given you Also, Uh,
Speaker 2: we're nosy. I mean that's yeah, you know, we know more.
Speaker 2: We want to know as much as possible. We all
Speaker 2: want to be Mark Anthony. Everyone thinks, you know, meaning
Speaker 2: I need to know good two thousands music, right, like
Speaker 2: I need to know you're rich. Davis, the host of
Speaker 2: Pop two K, would appreciate that. Yeah, we'll give that, no,
Speaker 2: but we we're just super nosy.
Speaker 3: Please don't ever do that again.
Speaker 2: Well, you know, daddy, how many you know how many
Speaker 2: times do menicuse their wives or girlfriends of like, oh,
Speaker 2: you're employeed gossipy stuff. We know what we as men
Speaker 2: love it, but we just disguise it as like mini
Speaker 2: camps and and pre seasons and something that like you
Speaker 2: got you got your eat of the streets trying to
Speaker 2: figure out, Daddy, like what's happening at Raiders camp. That's
Speaker 2: just as that's as gossipy as it gets. You're trying
Speaker 2: to figure out if you want the inside scoops for
Speaker 2: your bets that you making and everything else. You need
Speaker 2: to know these things. You need to know what's going on.
Speaker 2: You immerse yourself into the culture, into that world. You
Speaker 2: know for the next six months, your your life is football.
Speaker 2: So as much information as you can get, uh, you're
Speaker 2: gonna take it. So to answer Danny's question, have we
Speaker 2: gone too far? And do we know too much? I'll
Speaker 2: say it again, I don't think there's any doubt. I
Speaker 2: don't know, if it's good for the game, I guess
Speaker 2: it is, right. No one's uh, no, one's really complaining
Speaker 2: about it. I mean people dive into football, but I
Speaker 2: bet your wife would have something to say about it.
Speaker 2: I have a question, is it one of Is preseason
Speaker 2: football one of those things where if something goes really
Speaker 2: good you could take you could take like a nice
Speaker 2: positive away, but if something bad happens other than an injury,
Speaker 2: you could just chalk it up to, like, relax, it's
Speaker 2: the preseason. Like like in Major League Baseball spring training,
Speaker 2: if some guy's looking sharp, you could be like, oh,
Speaker 2: he's ready for the year. But if he goes, like,
Speaker 2: you know, for sixteen over a week over a weekend,
Speaker 2: you could be like, that's it's, you know, spring training.
Speaker 2: Can you chalk it up to that? Or are we
Speaker 2: taking these things too? So you gotta take the good
Speaker 2: with the bad, the bad with the good. I'm gonna
Speaker 2: live my life like I should. You just got to
Speaker 2: take it, like like social media. You can't just read
Speaker 2: all the good comments or all you can't do all
Speaker 2: in the band comments, right, you gotta take it for
Speaker 2: what it is, and it doesn't mean a whole lot
Speaker 2: until the season begins. That's the truth. You could make
Speaker 2: some sort of assessment and feel positive about things. You
Speaker 2: could take things as confidence builders, because that's all it
Speaker 2: really is, right, Nothing really matters until the season starts.
Speaker 2: How do you feel about that? If you're going to
Speaker 2: say that it's just fun. I think people need distractions,
Speaker 2: And I say, if you really want to get to
Speaker 2: the core of it, we need distractions, and football provides
Speaker 2: us with That's a fantastic one. It's really the core
Speaker 2: of why we just need so much more and why
Speaker 2: we're so invested. It's like, all right, I could tune
Speaker 2: out of whatever's going on in your life, or you're
Speaker 2: boring baseball season.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm not gonna lie dive into this. I watched
Speaker 4: the Giants over the weekend. I watched the Browns. I
Speaker 4: had preseason football on in the background.
Speaker 2: It's something to have something to be excited about life,
Speaker 2: not to get too deep. This early in the morning.
Speaker 2: It's early here on the West Coast. Life gets let
Speaker 2: me lay down on the couch. Life gets mundane. Man,
Speaker 2: it's hell me mind. You know, we know what the
Speaker 2: weekends over. It's Monday morning again. If you could just
Speaker 2: zone out and have the sound even the sound d energy.
Speaker 2: Like you said of football in the background, it's comforting,
Speaker 2: comfort food. That's like pizza on your on your Monday.
Speaker 2: You know, that's that's just maybe you know, something to
Speaker 2: distract yourself with now really as part of it, so
Speaker 2: we'll take as much as we can get. But as
Speaker 2: a result you want you do wander down the project product,
Speaker 2: like enough, man, what does it really mean? If you
Speaker 2: could just keep in mind that not a whole lot,
Speaker 2: It doesn't mean a whole lot, It just is what
Speaker 2: it is, then you're good. You can't overthink and over
Speaker 2: evaluate these things you put you put, you put any
Speaker 2: stock into something like all the rookie quarterbacks passer ratings
Speaker 2: have been phenomenal. That because again we last week we
Speaker 2: said who are they playing against? But yet they look
Speaker 2: nothing wrong being positive?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 2: Is that NFL is in good hands moving forward.
Speaker 4: And it's it's nice to see because if it was
Speaker 4: reversed all all the young quarterback stunk in Week one,
Speaker 4: then we'd all be scratching our heads like, oh, maybe
Speaker 4: these qbs aren't as good as we thought.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that goes back to what Rich was saying before,
Speaker 2: like what does it all mean? I mean, it's it's
Speaker 2: better to do good than bad always, There's no question
Speaker 2: about that. Right of course, you rather so good confidence builders,
Speaker 2: You rather be in a good position than not. But
Speaker 2: if you're gonna make mistakes, that's the thing, Danny g
Speaker 2: now's the time to do it where it was just
Speaker 2: a mistake. It's just preseason. Now it's over magnified as
Speaker 2: to like doom and gloom all the end of the
Speaker 2: seasons here.
Speaker 4: Well and Rich mentioned injuries. You want to over magnify things,
Speaker 4: you know. Mike Lafleura now getting some heat over the
Speaker 4: weekend because it seems like he played Jeremiah Love the
Speaker 4: third pick overall a little too much against My Raiders.
Speaker 4: And high ankle sprain, yeah, dreaded at first. They Cardinals
Speaker 4: acted like it wasn't a big injury. He's gonna miss
Speaker 4: all the preseason and hopefully back for Game one. But
Speaker 4: that's kind of up in the air right now, because
Speaker 4: you know how high ankle.
Speaker 2: Sprain's go, dude, High ankle sprain has been the BUZ
Speaker 2: injury for the last few sitisens we we we talked
Speaker 2: about our show because it's the most vague injury there is,
Speaker 2: because one guy kind have a high ankle spraying and
Speaker 2: I'll leave him back in a week or so. And
Speaker 2: a high ankle spray could keep someone else out first.
Speaker 3: Like it's alagging, nag.
Speaker 2: There's something very didn't Stu Gotts take off last week
Speaker 2: for a high everybody an excuse nowadays. Yeah, so that's
Speaker 2: the other thing, turf Tow pushing your young stars. Fritzy
Speaker 2: had a speaking of our resident Raiders fan as high
Speaker 2: as everyone was on Fernando Mendoza's debut. I think he's
Speaker 2: fourth in QB rating through the first game, right, Yeah,
Speaker 2: he's fourth. Well, don't worry, Kavi. You know, I saw
Speaker 2: a meme that said the NFL future is in good
Speaker 2: hands and it's Ty Simpson, Fernando, Carson Back, and Drew
Speaker 2: Aler and it's just because they've had a good first look.
Speaker 2: And like again, yeah it was Drew Dollar at first.
Speaker 3: Uh, and Ty Simpson really came out balling for the Rams.
Speaker 2: Carson Back on you want to twenty five? Pretty solid,
Speaker 2: I will then Ti Simpson, then Fernando. But yeah, each
Speaker 2: guy put up big numbers in their preseason debut, so
Speaker 2: you know, props to all of them. It's better than
Speaker 2: doing bad there's no question about it. But is it
Speaker 2: too much as the I guess would Crooks of the
Speaker 2: the what did you call it? I said, Crooks did
Speaker 2: the crux of the I just rolled. But you know what,
Speaker 2: I'll I'll say this if you want to sort of
Speaker 2: look at the whole NFL preseason, because we're all pumped
Speaker 2: about it. It's got us fired up just because the
Speaker 2: return of football, like it's there, it's on. You want
Speaker 2: to watch it like you're you're scrolling and you're like,
Speaker 2: even if it was I watched the replay of a
Speaker 2: game on NFL Network yesterday, like you're watching you just
Speaker 2: you just want to get a taste of the NFL again.
Speaker 2: But here's the question. This does a it's twofold because
Speaker 2: you were saying, Jeremiah Love has now heard high ankle sprain.
Speaker 4: The last thing Art got wrecked immediately the Giants game,
Speaker 4: it seemed like Burrow was in too long in his
Speaker 4: game and he was, you know, taking some hits.
Speaker 2: But what what's too long? And it's that isn't it
Speaker 2: really just the adage of like if it goes wrong,
Speaker 2: then he was in too long and if everything's fine,
Speaker 2: it's like it was the right amount. Tom Brady commented
Speaker 2: on somebody see if it's still on his Instagram story.
Speaker 2: I saw Brady was saying, how because someone had posted
Speaker 2: someone had posted a highlight of does I got right here?
Speaker 2: Look at me run? You actually found it? I did
Speaker 2: right right. That never happens. You know, you got to
Speaker 2: try to find a photo for somebody to see when
Speaker 2: you need it or YouTube video. You gotta see this
Speaker 2: clip and it just the kids, me and the family
Speaker 2: were recently in San Diego. Let me show you the picture.
Speaker 2: The fact that you found that and we're in for
Speaker 2: DP right now is a is a mirror in record time.
Speaker 2: People need to understand the miracle that just happened. Rich
Speaker 2: didn't have this, Like the fact that he found this
Speaker 2: is incredible. What did Tom Brady say? Someone posted its.
Speaker 3: Going to be underwhelming after all that?
Speaker 2: A damn you guys, I know, but you can never
Speaker 2: find something when you're looking for it. Here's what I
Speaker 2: found fellas h No. Someone posted a highlight Tom Brady
Speaker 2: to Randy Moss and it was like it's like like
Speaker 2: an eighty yard pass and it said preseason twenty ten
Speaker 2: and all the comments were like, wait, does that say
Speaker 2: third quarter five minutes left in a preseason game? What's
Speaker 2: going on? And Tom Brady did a screenshot and he
Speaker 2: goes preseason, regular season. I never wanted to be taken
Speaker 2: off the field. Practice makes perfect. Too many people looking
Speaker 2: for the easy way out these days. When you're a
Speaker 2: football player and it's football season, your job is to
Speaker 2: play football. Then he posted the emoji that they're like
Speaker 2: the smiley face doing like the like the huff, like
Speaker 2: the smoke's coming out of the nose. Still the big
Speaker 2: moment and perfect practice makes perfect?
Speaker 3: Right?
Speaker 2: Isn't that what they say? Who said that Kurt Haddick,
Speaker 2: Kurt Hennicksy's perfect because you could just show up and
Speaker 2: have sloppy routes. You gotta do your best. Perfect practice
Speaker 2: makes perfect? As the expression the do you feel as
Speaker 2: though there were some teams like remember historically I know
Speaker 2: he's uh well, I mean that was with the Giants,
Speaker 2: cause I remember harb Off of the Ravens. Every year.
Speaker 2: The whole sentiment was he played his starters a lot
Speaker 2: in the preseason.
Speaker 3: That was the thing, Like, yeah, people would win bets.
Speaker 2: They would be like it would almost be like honestly
Speaker 2: like easy money for some because the Ravens wouldn't really
Speaker 2: often lose preseason games because he would have his he
Speaker 2: would have his starters in there for a little bit.
Speaker 2: I've seen some teams and you've seen their starters take
Speaker 2: some reps, and then other teams there was not a
Speaker 2: glimpse of a starter. I mean, I know they I
Speaker 2: know my team. I'm a Niners guy. I know they
Speaker 2: start in Australia and they're banged up, and they're a
Speaker 2: veteran team. So maybe they're the type of team that
Speaker 2: doesn't touch the field. But you think you're gonna get
Speaker 2: a sniff of McCaffrey or Kittle or Purdy or any
Speaker 2: of those guys in the preseason. No, I'm not sure
Speaker 2: that a lot of those guys are also injury prone.
Speaker 2: And I think the core of what we're really getting
Speaker 2: at is people really enjoy the football season, so they'll
Speaker 2: take as much of it as they can. People like distractions.
Speaker 2: People are bored. I think social media brings down the
Speaker 2: mood and vibe. I think of your life and soul.
Speaker 2: So when football comes this little taste of the old
Speaker 2: school stuff he used to love. Even my girlfriend belongs
Speaker 2: to get this. This is wild. She belongs to a
Speaker 2: social club just to get out, but it's football related.
Speaker 2: The Chargers welcome like a social club is trying to
Speaker 2: get away from you nobody. Yes, yes, that's what you
Speaker 2: join when you're with him. Yes, he's got to get out.
Speaker 2: Nobody at social club. Just at the Chargers facilities. So
Speaker 2: you get to socialize, meet people. They hold little mini
Speaker 2: events while you're watching camp and everything, while you're watching training.
Speaker 2: But because people just want to get out and connect again,
Speaker 2: because you feel empty inside and football fills that void
Speaker 2: a little bit. It's the truth. I'm not exaggerating, dude.
Speaker 2: How many people do I do? You know that just
Speaker 2: empty because social media and the and the everyday grind
Speaker 2: like just destroys their soul. Fills you back up with
Speaker 2: wings hot wings and and joy and happiness. Interestingly enough,
Speaker 2: I was going to compare football fans you know when
Speaker 2: you're like, you know, when you're a college kid, and
Speaker 2: to be honest, not sound immature, but you remember your
Speaker 2: college days. Maybe you're just so anxious, like drink or
Speaker 2: do dumb things like you would drink Natty Ice into
Speaker 2: the record. That wasn't a kechstand kind of guy. I'm
Speaker 2: not a beer helmet dude, like you you are?
Speaker 1: You?
Speaker 2: Are you a sideline chug of beer? If the cameras
Speaker 2: on you could you do that?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: You got to step up when it counts.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Rich, we didn't experiment like you did.
Speaker 2: Yeah I didn't. I didn't find myself in college. Hold
Speaker 2: on what that means? No, but let me tell you
Speaker 2: I I just think the same way. Did you take
Speaker 2: a year off just to backpack and not find youself?
Speaker 2: I did not do that. I think Rich backpacked Europe.
Speaker 2: Uh oh god. When people would say that, they're like,
Speaker 2: who are you? No, But the same way you would
Speaker 2: be like, I'll drink anything. What do you got, Natty Ice?
Speaker 2: You know what do you got to Milwaukee's best? You
Speaker 2: would you'd be drinking Bartles and James whatever you could
Speaker 2: get your gold Schager. Sure you were just trying so
Speaker 2: desperately to get drunk like an idiot. I feel like
Speaker 2: we are football is the booze and we are the college.
Speaker 2: Is true because you would just take anything. That's that's
Speaker 2: a great anality. You'll take anything, because you'll take any
Speaker 2: preseason matchup, doesn't matter who it is. And that's the
Speaker 2: difference between football and any other sport. You'll watch any
Speaker 2: game if it could be Brown's. Give me two bunk teams.
Speaker 2: As I offend two fan bases immediately, I'll leave it.
Speaker 2: Brown's Cardinals.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Last week, if you missed it, Rich predicted the Cardinals
Speaker 4: were only going to win two games.
Speaker 2: I I backed Danny. I take it back. I think
Speaker 2: one game, lucky, Yeah, one game because Jeremiah loves high ankles, right,
Speaker 2: I would go and break it down one and sixteen.
Speaker 2: If you missed it, we came in high on Carson
Speaker 2: back and how poised he looked, and how pos he'd looked,
Speaker 2: like a bona fide starter. We were drinking the cool
Speaker 2: one and sixteen and Rich went through the schedule and
Speaker 2: they're like, yeah, right, he's gonna go one in sixteen,
Speaker 2: but possible. But you, like, I think, uh, the same
Speaker 2: way you would watch a Brown's Cardinals game with enthusiasm.
Speaker 2: You would you would never be like, you know what
Speaker 2: I'm watching, guys, consume a yega bomb. Ye, But yeah,
Speaker 2: you would never be like, guys, guess what I'm watching tonight?
Speaker 2: The Rockies are playing the type.
Speaker 3: Part of it is.
Speaker 4: Part of it is the national coverage, just like from
Speaker 4: the Dan Patrick Show and the Covino and Rich Show,
Speaker 4: because think about it, we know all the storylines of
Speaker 4: the Browns, we know all the storylines of the Cardinals.
Speaker 3: Right now, Baseball, for instance, it's so regional now it's just.
Speaker 2: Your team, you know. Like Rich always says, I'm the
Speaker 2: biggest baseball fan. He knows I'm like, no, I'm the
Speaker 2: biggest Yankees fan because I don't know what's going on
Speaker 2: in the NL West, you know what I mean, He's right.
Speaker 2: For some reason, you could be Danny. Danny's a Raiders fan,
Speaker 2: but Danny's well in the loop on like the NFC South. Exactly.
Speaker 2: You're a Dodgers fan, You're a baseball guy, Daddy, but
Speaker 2: you probably don't know the inner workings what's going on
Speaker 2: the AL Central right now. I could tell you.
Speaker 4: What's going on with the Falcons quarterback situation, but you're right,
Speaker 4: I couldn't tell you about baseball.
Speaker 2: That part of the country. I think that unless you
Speaker 2: really prepared and did a deeper dive. I don't think
Speaker 2: the average, even super sports fan could tell you the
Speaker 2: starting lineup of a team in a random division. So,
Speaker 2: just like a college kid will consume anything in front
Speaker 2: of him, what is that aftershock. Give me somebody what
Speaker 2: you got. I remember it was a freshman. I was
Speaker 2: a freshman in Syracuse, and I remember waking up drunk
Speaker 2: in a shower ones because I thought it was a
Speaker 2: good idea to drink tequila out of a plastic jug.
Speaker 2: I was like, this must be a good brand. Like
Speaker 2: you were when you were in college, the way you'll
Speaker 2: consume any football. You were so desperate for anything, a
Speaker 2: little sip of anything, like a guy, a single guy,
Speaker 2: for an app on the first time swiping, like anything.
Speaker 2: We'll do anything. That's how wenzoom, especially third stream your
Speaker 2: baseball teams out of it, third string players and the
Speaker 2: Saints versus the you know, the Dolphins got it, and
Speaker 2: I want to explain to how we got here. Obviously
Speaker 2: everyone talking about NFL preseason and it is fun to watch.
Speaker 2: But all the hype on the rookie quarterbacks and their
Speaker 2: preseason debut, all the Fernando Mendoza talk, the injury of
Speaker 2: Jeremiah Love, how the conversation is this non stop? Turn
Speaker 2: on any television. Scroll through your X feed.
Speaker 3: Risers and fallers after Week one.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Risers and Fallers. Too much coverage of training camp
Speaker 2: was it better in the old school, when you really
Speaker 2: didn't know what was going on. You had some what
Speaker 2: of an idea, but you weren't diving into it the way.
Speaker 2: Oh we didn't even mentioned hard knocks and quarterback or
Speaker 2: anything like that. That also gets us. Now we know
Speaker 2: the so now we know the personal lives of these
Speaker 2: stars on it. You know, I blame Lev Schreiber. You know,
Speaker 2: he just gets us so fired up. What Tuesday Night's
Speaker 2: hard Knocks? Yeah? You know that just also gets you
Speaker 2: in the mindset where you want more, You want more
Speaker 2: mar Marvel. So is it too much? Does it good?
Speaker 3: Wearrate? You making coffee at your house in the morning
Speaker 3: and have to watch?
Speaker 2: Dude? Can we make that happen? You're the producer of
Speaker 2: our show, Danny g reach out, Come on, We're in
Speaker 2: for DP Danny grebbed dark close.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I think that would be so cool. I would listen
Speaker 2: to that. So, you know, is it too much? Absolutely?
Speaker 2: Is anyone complaining? I don't think. So let's just embrace it.

Speaker 2: got to lot coming up with a bunch of more
Speaker 2: football today. We're gonna talk about a lot of these

Speaker 2: and we'll talk fall offs in sports. Big Poppy has trivia.
Speaker 2: We got to bribe listeners and friends one person at
Speaker 2: a time, so we got some giveaways later on and
Speaker 2: let's have some fun. Let's get this week going. But
Speaker 2: to wrap up the first conversation again with all the
Speaker 2: rookie QB talk, all the NFL preseason, I think there's
Speaker 2: another layer of as to why we got to be
Speaker 2: on it. It's the feeling you have of not being
Speaker 2: in the know, Like the pressure to know is real,
Speaker 2: Like you never want to be the guy, especially caught
Speaker 2: off guard, not knowing the basic stuff, like you know
Speaker 2: that guy when he's caught off guard. I think it's
Speaker 2: the barbershop culture and the sports talk radio culture, social
Speaker 2: media culture of like you have to know what's going
Speaker 2: on all times or else you feel lost. And although
Speaker 2: we like it and it's fun, there is a pressure
Speaker 2: to be on top of things as they happen. And
Speaker 2: that's the hold that social media and the phone has
Speaker 2: on you, and football has on you in that way,
Speaker 2: like you don't want to be the guy that doesn't
Speaker 2: know when you're hanging with your buddies, and that's what
Speaker 2: we try to do here on the show, keep you
Speaker 2: up on all sorts of stuff, not just sports. Yeah,
Speaker 2: but I think there's part of it there too. Any
Speaker 2: g poses the question if you just joined us, like
Speaker 2: is it too much with all the training camp talk,
Speaker 2: because years ago we didn't have all this information, We
Speaker 2: didn't watch all these games. I mean compared to the
Speaker 2: NFL draft. We've said, we've made that analogy where you know,
Speaker 2: when we were kids, it was in a room with
Speaker 2: wood panel walls and a bunch of people smoking cigarettes ey,
Speaker 2: but the first pick, I'll pick whoever, and no one cared.
Speaker 2: It was like, you know, moderately viewed. Now you have
Speaker 2: hundreds of thousands of people in the streets of a
Speaker 2: random city, like sectioned off in their team fan groups,
Speaker 2: and the way it's a it's a billion dollar night.
Speaker 2: It seems you know I said this before that one
Speaker 2: you sort of glossed over it a little bit. Fantasy
Speaker 2: sports changed that too. It's like you gotta know every
Speaker 2: little thing. You're trying to get your teams ready. You
Speaker 2: don't know how many people I I can't say sneak disted,
Speaker 2: but sort of blew off when you were asking me
Speaker 2: about joining their league. I'm like, I'm good man, I'm
Speaker 2: good I man, I'm good man.
Speaker 3: You know what I mean.
Speaker 4: So that's you're right though, that's part of the excitement
Speaker 4: this time of the year. Like my family members, they
Speaker 4: cannot stop yapping about their fantasy team they want to
Speaker 4: put together, right adds to.
Speaker 2: The just like pictures of your kids. No one wants
Speaker 2: to know, but no one wants to see your fantasy team.
Speaker 2: But everyone's excited about their their own fantasy. He's such
Speaker 2: a people pleaser. He just keeps joining leagues. And then
Speaker 2: you know what happened, I've stopped you let them all damn.
Speaker 2: Then they hate you because you fall off and lose
Speaker 2: interest on one or I stop doing that, and then
Speaker 2: they hate you. And I think there's a limit, right,
Speaker 2: like in my mind, like, yeah, get out of my face.
Speaker 2: I can't do it. I can't do it. But you know,
Speaker 2: to answer the question isn't so much you can't do it.
Speaker 2: It is but it's the world we live in, so
Speaker 2: embrace it and enjoy it. And it's football, and it's
Speaker 2: you know, it's that time of year to uh to
Speaker 2: get pumped. So can I ask you a parental question
Speaker 2: depends your dad. You got a teenage daughter. Danny G's
Speaker 2: got kids. I got I got little ones.
Speaker 3: Yep.
Speaker 2: By the way, she made varsity cheer. Yeah see football,
Speaker 2: everything's football, and she made her captain speeches. Gotta ask
Speaker 2: we you know you watch Quarterback, you see how evolved
Speaker 2: Jaden Daniel's mom is yeah, smother, She's a smother. And
Speaker 2: now you see Dion Sanders took Rich over a month,
Speaker 2: by the way, to finally watch Quarterback. I had to
Speaker 2: get in the zone. Rich is the guy that finally watched.
Speaker 2: He's the guy that finally watched Sopranos, and now he's
Speaker 2: talking about twenty years. I mean, hey, dude, tell me
Speaker 2: more about Bobby buckle out. I'm not the guy that.
Speaker 4: Watch Last Friday, Rich was telling us all about the
Speaker 4: show we watched a month ago.
Speaker 2: Rich is talking to me about Doctor Melfie because it's
Speaker 2: fresh on his d. No, that's a terrible analogy, because
Speaker 2: if you had watched, it's not like I watched the
Speaker 2: movie or show. It's not like, hey, guys, let me
Speaker 2: tell you all about a breaking bed. Everybody. I was
Speaker 2: a month behind on Quarterback because I wanted to just
Speaker 2: get more of the NFL mindset. His mom is his
Speaker 2: mamager manager, smother her. She's the first one there, you know,
Speaker 2: talking and schmoozing with everybody. I only bring it up
Speaker 2: because I don't know a lot of people were commenting.
Speaker 2: I even saw on the network Colin Cowherd went on
Speaker 2: a little ran love their kid.
Speaker 1: We're on.
Speaker 2: I saw Colin going a little rant about you know,
Speaker 2: like Deon, what are you doing like Deon Sanders hanging
Speaker 2: out at the Cleveland Browns facility? He was, uh, you know,
Speaker 2: hanging out more and more, taking an interest and just
Speaker 2: sort of his presence near the Browns, Like how do
Speaker 2: you feel about players? Parents? Is that like you know
Speaker 2: what little kids and their father's Dion Sanders. But that's
Speaker 2: different than your mom. Just and again that's no knock
Speaker 2: on Jaydon Daniel's mom. No, no, no, I'm saying like
Speaker 2: even as it isn't as the guys, even as a
Speaker 2: guy that coaches, what's the number one thing? Like all
Speaker 2: right parents like back up a little yeah, but but
Speaker 2: but does that not stop? Stop? It's not the same
Speaker 2: as Dion Sanders, Like if you're primetime, I think that's different.
Speaker 2: That's an except the same way where a mom or
Speaker 2: dad could get in the way for little league flag
Speaker 2: football where it's like, yeah, you know, Dylan's dad's a
Speaker 2: little much or uh, you know, you see the little
Speaker 2: Jessin's dad were Sandals and sons. Jessica Sanders is not
Speaker 2: that guy. Jessica's mom keeps emailing the coach about it
Speaker 2: meaningless stuff you don't think. You don't think at a
Speaker 2: certain level, even in the pros, like a a player's
Speaker 2: parents should like back up. I don't give Dion Sanders
Speaker 2: or right Jadeen Daniel's mom like it's still there. I
Speaker 2: don't know, let your kid be their own person. I
Speaker 2: imagine here at Fox Sports Radio, your mom hit up
Speaker 2: the boss about anything. She probably would. She's a pain.
Speaker 2: I could see my mom doing that. Steven deserves rais.
Speaker 2: I mean, I just I wanted to throw it down
Speaker 2: because I just saw more, you know, more Dion stuff.
Speaker 2: But we're just consumed this. Ever, you didn't get extra
Speaker 2: for filling in for Dan Patrick. No, mom, stop, no, no,
Speaker 2: I don't why not embarrassing?
Speaker 1: You know what?
Speaker 2: But prime time, yes, he could be embarrassing. But I
Speaker 2: think they embrace their father. They act exactly like their father.
Speaker 2: He's Dion Sanders. He belongs on a football field. He's
Speaker 2: not out of place like my mom doesn't belong in
Speaker 2: a radio studio. Right, So I think he's an exception,
Speaker 2: even though I may be the contrarian here because that
Speaker 2: seems to be the assessment. Like you know, Deon Sanders
Speaker 2: beat it, that is the story. So I mean you could.
Speaker 3: I mean.
Speaker 2: He has a lot to offer. It's go back to
Speaker 2: go coach hear. Yeah, But you have any superstar there
Speaker 2: for training camp, I think you want to pick the
Speaker 2: mind of the greats. That's why they're there to help out.
Speaker 2: So if you have him there just because his son's
Speaker 2: on the team, I think that's bonus for everybody, and
Speaker 2: that sets up a winning culture for the other players.
Speaker 2: That's what I think. Even though that's his dad, I
Speaker 2: think guys like like Shador are used to that and
Speaker 2: they're used to their dad being there and that guy
Speaker 2: it's not just some regular dude. Even though they drafted
Speaker 2: two quarterbacks and in the draft, you know, not this
Speaker 2: one last year with Dylan Gabriel and should Ary Sanders,
Speaker 2: is that the quarterback room and Deshaun Watson obviously hanging
Speaker 2: around could be the starter is that is that one
Speaker 2: of the quarterback situations that's still the most confusing too,
Speaker 2: because I feel like I feel like that Browns quarterback
Speaker 2: situation has not gotten any clearer.
Speaker 4: No, as far as clarity there, there still isn't any
Speaker 4: right now because in preseason maybe, well, we'll get some
Speaker 4: after the second preseason game.
Speaker 3: But they both played well.
Speaker 4: Deshaun Watson looked pretty sharp, and then Shador came in
Speaker 4: and he played pretty well. So there's still, you know,
Speaker 4: no decision there in Cleveland, and I don't think we're
Speaker 4: gonna get one until the end of the preseason.
Speaker 2: I think they're just trying to get their money's worth
Speaker 2: out of them. You know, we invested a lot in
Speaker 2: this dude. Let's make it work. They're gonna give him
Speaker 2: every opportunity possible. But West from Vegas hits us up
Speaker 2: and he says, acting like Deon Sanders not a good thing.
Speaker 2: I mean, he's got a Hall of Fame career. Man,
Speaker 2: he can't take his antics and and and judge him
Speaker 2: by that. Yeah, he's a bit of a clown, but
Speaker 2: that's what makes him primetime. That's awesome. I think that's great. Uh,
Speaker 2: let's see Mercerman hits us up from Pittsburgh. I'm glad
Speaker 2: I stopped worrying about my fantasy sports, he consumes.
Speaker 1: You.
Speaker 2: Now, I have a question. Do you play fantasy sports
Speaker 2: to the level where you start rooting for guys to
Speaker 2: do well against your team? That's the only that's that's
Speaker 2: to be like when people when people are when people
Speaker 2: got multi when people got multiple fantasy leagues going on,
Speaker 2: they're doing multiple drafts this week and next week, and
Speaker 2: all of a sudden they're in a they're sitting there
Speaker 2: on a Sunday and they're like, well, I want my
Speaker 2: team to win, but I would really love it if
Speaker 2: uh yeah, I think you know this guy. If Jamier
Speaker 2: gives gets you know, two tuddies, but my team still wins.
Speaker 2: I have action. If you have money on it too,
Speaker 2: you know that sort of changes. You're rooting for so
Speaker 2: many things. All it was exactly well, anyway, we got
Speaker 2: a lot more football to get to. But coming up,
Speaker 2: while he did have a good weekend, I gotta talk
Speaker 2: about cal Raley among others. He said, good weekend. He
Speaker 2: got one hit.
Speaker 4: You're supposed to have done this top big hit last
Speaker 4: Friday afternoon. I know on our usual time slot. Then
Speaker 4: it would have been more timely. Now it's like you're
Speaker 4: late to the party because he had a great weekend.
Speaker 2: Not to knock the guy, he's still batt in one
Speaker 2: fifty eight, if I if I'm not mistaken, and and
Speaker 2: we'll keep it in perspective. The guys live in the
Speaker 2: dream regardless. We all wanted to play in the Big league,
Speaker 2: so we can only knock him so much. But he
Speaker 2: fell off, you know from his last year's numbers. So
Speaker 2: what is going on with cal Rawley? And there's other
Speaker 2: people on this list, Danny, why.
Speaker 3: Don't you dare say Kyle Tucker.
Speaker 2: One of your Dodgers is getting mood. His name is
Speaker 2: Kyle Tucker. And Edwin Diaz? What do we say?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 2: What's his new name? Ed Lost? Ed Lost? Diaz? Got
Speaker 2: good guy, Dah, I know, were you up all night? Yeah?
Speaker 2: Rich that I wrote that shoke. Gus he got no
Speaker 2: sleep last night because he was trying to confrom that
Speaker 2: wind and lost the es. No, So we're gonna talk
Speaker 2: about some of these MLB players, and I'm gonna even
Speaker 2: throw former Cy Young in there. What is doing with
Speaker 2: Paul Skeins? So coming up with others. Covino enrich In

Speaker 2: up for football. There's things that you look forward to.
Speaker 2: It's the dots on your calendar right opening day kickoff,
Speaker 2: a big fight, and I got to just throw this
Speaker 2: out there because that's also part of it. We just
Speaker 2: need things, whether it be a vacation or something. We
Speaker 2: need things to look forward to in life, and football
Speaker 2: is that thing every every week and more days than ever. Well,
Speaker 2: that's what people are looking forward to now because I
Speaker 2: think a lot of people just got don't de vacations
Speaker 2: and kids are going back to school, so it's like now,
Speaker 2: now what football? Yeah, otherwise things get floring. But two
Speaker 2: other things, yeah, that I get fired up for, kind
Speaker 2: of like football. We had UFC three thirty this weekend.
Speaker 2: That was a lot of fun, but I'm a big
Speaker 2: boxing fan. Next weekend we got Tia Fimo Lopez, Rolli Romero,
Speaker 2: and then next month we're going to be at the
Speaker 2: nine to eleven game. Yeahs Mets Yankees twenty fifth anniversary.
Speaker 2: But that weekend you got Ryan Garcia fighting Connor Ben
Speaker 2: So some big fights coming up. Just throwing that out
Speaker 2: there to get you excited because we need that in life. Again,
Speaker 2: I'm Cavino, that is rich And now we got to
Speaker 2: talk a little rece Bob fall Off. Before you talk baseball.
Speaker 2: We talked a lot of NFL queed, just acknowledge that
Speaker 2: while everything seems to be an overreaction in the preseason,
Speaker 2: Jeremiah Ive is hurt, Jeremiah Love is hurt. So the
Speaker 2: Cardinal fans should be a little like, oh yeah, Remia,
Speaker 2: just a little like, oh, and if you're a Giants
Speaker 2: fan already with Jackson Dart having to go to the
Speaker 2: medical tent and he took some hits, and people like yo, scataboo,
Speaker 2: something doesn't look right, Like, if I'm a Giants fan,
Speaker 2: I have any questions, I am a little like, oh, like,
Speaker 2: it seems way early for there to be like concerns,
Speaker 2: like a lot of team stars haven't even touched a
Speaker 2: field yet, and it just seems like this concerns.
Speaker 3: You're part of the overblown coverage.
Speaker 2: Rich, Yeah, there you go, making mountains out of mall hills,
Speaker 2: or as they said, as Jackson Dart said, a nothing burger.
Speaker 2: So hey, maybe it is a nothing burger. Now that
Speaker 2: sounds good. Let's go to baseball. Well, second, it's actually
Speaker 2: fall off, but it starts with cal Rawley. Yeah, what happened?
Speaker 2: I gotta say. I don't want to be like other
Speaker 2: radio hosts that I hear and roll my eyes at
Speaker 2: when they're like, I told you so well, you were
Speaker 2: the guy last year when it was a two man race,
Speaker 2: said it, Cavino.
Speaker 3: A personalized belt like championship belt.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I need a champion your belt, because I
Speaker 2: proved I was the first to say it. I said it.
Speaker 2: But I'll tell you why I said it, because I
Speaker 2: was defending Aaron Judne last year when he were talking
Speaker 2: m VPS. I'm like, give me a break.
Speaker 3: This guy.
Speaker 2: He's a great catcher. He's had a great year, you know, Aaron,
Speaker 2: He's not Aaron juhnn. Maybe the best season ever. Maybe
Speaker 2: you're the You're the you put the shamboozie, the the jinks.
Speaker 2: Because I don't want credit for that either. I'm rooting
Speaker 2: against cal Rowley. I just said that Judge is a
Speaker 2: generational guy. Yeah, we don't know. I was like, it
Speaker 2: could be a flucus. It's an amazing and can't take
Speaker 2: that away. But we don't know how good he is.
Speaker 2: I don't think he's the most valuable player when you're
Speaker 2: comparing him to a proven Aaron Judge who just had
Speaker 2: a monster season and then pops in the world argument
Speaker 2: that he was a catcher and he was doing something special,
Speaker 2: but I mean in the history of sports, and I
Speaker 2: know that sounds like a pretty big state. And also,
Speaker 2: can we just reemphasize that we don't take any like
Speaker 2: joy in talking about his meager numbers. Cal Raley went from, well,
Speaker 2: the mean there was a viral meme last week and
Speaker 2: it said he had fifty one hits. He now has
Speaker 2: fifty two, but fifty one hits this season. At this
Speaker 2: time last year he had sixty home runs, although he
Speaker 2: was he had sixty home runs last year. Yeah, sixty
Speaker 2: home runs for season is not let fifty one hits.
Speaker 2: At that point it was like, man, what a fallof
Speaker 2: So as of now weekend has passed after this viral meme, Yes, yes,
Speaker 2: fifty two hits. It was a big It was a
Speaker 2: walk off though, fifty two hits, thirteen home runs. But
Speaker 2: get this, yes, granted he's he a two seventeen lifetime average.
Speaker 2: One fifty eight. Like honestly, any JABBRONI listening right now
Speaker 2: feels and is something that we all say and think,
Speaker 2: I get hit one fifty eight, And of course we can't,
Speaker 2: But I mean one fifty eight as a big leaguer
Speaker 2: runner up for MVP. Give me a break. So you
Speaker 2: know something's going on here. It's it's I'm not saying
Speaker 2: it's over for the guy. The guy is still one
Speaker 2: of the best. Something's off, something's wrong. He'll figure it out.
Speaker 2: I do believe that. But that is a fall off
Speaker 2: from last year. We're talking. It was a really close
Speaker 2: MVP race. We're talking he was up there with Aaron Judge.
Speaker 2: We're talking magical season. We remember the season we were
Speaker 2: at the home run derby. Cal Rawley has fifty two hits.
Speaker 2: He's batting one fifty eight. He had a nice weekend.
Speaker 2: Maybe that's the start of something big and good for him.
Speaker 2: I'm just not getting against. I was just looking at
Speaker 2: there was one year where Bartolo Cologne had an average
Speaker 2: like that. That's what I mean. You know, and you
Speaker 2: think of honestly, like you think of players that teams
Speaker 2: got rid of because they were sort of slipping. Like like,
Speaker 2: I'll give you a current example from the Yankees, Like
Speaker 2: we said, Arivaderci to DJ Lemayhew when he started, when
Speaker 2: he was batting two sixty six, would you would take
Speaker 2: that any day of the week. Now, based on these numbers.
Speaker 2: These batting averages are pathetic, but you know you've seen
Speaker 2: a fall off. We're not taking joy in his fall off,
Speaker 2: but there is an absolutely movie. There's a clear like
Speaker 2: sixty home runs and the number of level guy. You know,
Speaker 2: he could be a swell dude. We think he's great.
Speaker 2: He's a great fella. He's the big dumper. He waved
Speaker 2: to us at the home run derby. So I give him,
Speaker 2: I give him credit. It's a nice guy. But thirteen
Speaker 2: home runs bet in one point fifty eight? Can you
Speaker 2: think of a bigger fall off than any sport? And
Speaker 2: I'm not And I'm like, I'm not trying to be
Speaker 2: a prisoner of the moment, But think about all the
Speaker 2: major sports, think about bands and actors and movies. Who's
Speaker 2: falling off quicker and more drastically than Cal Rowley? All right,
Speaker 2: I got some actors in my too, and more baseball players.
Speaker 2: But I want to talk all the answers. You know what,
Speaker 2: Danny G. If Danny G is feeling nice about it,
Speaker 2: he's a little grumpy early in the morning here on
Speaker 2: the West Coast, maybe he will give prizes away to
Speaker 2: the best answers.
Speaker 3: Okay, man, I wake up with a smile.
Speaker 2: I think it's falloffs. We'll get to that next. And
Speaker 2: for the Great Dan Patrick Covine on Rich Monday, let's
Speaker 2: go
