Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
You are listening to the Dan Patrick Show on Fox
Sports Radio.

Speaker 2 (00:04):
What did D Snyder teach us in the eighties to
stay hungry? What did Sebastian Manusconco title his last comedy special.

Speaker 3 (00:17):
Aren't you in Barre? No No?

Speaker 4 (00:19):
Stay?

Speaker 3 (00:20):
Stay hungry, Stay hungry? Why would you do that?

Speaker 2 (00:23):
Well, let me tell you. I listened to D. Snyder
and that's why I'm a chubby vato loco till this day.
Stay hungry. I stayed hungry. Man, stay hungry. You gotta
find out a way. You must find and fulfill your
destiny because once you get to the mountaintop, once you win,
once you become a champion, it is easy to get

(00:45):
lazy and content because I've done it.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
Well, I'm just gonna says it again.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
When an actor or actress finally breaks through in Hollywood
and they're like, wait, this is it, or or an
athlete wins a championship and.

Speaker 3 (00:57):
They're like, this is it. Yeah, it happens a lot.

Speaker 2 (00:59):
That to me is a little understandable because you worked
your whole life to get there, to the top of
your industry, and then when you get there, there is
that sense of now what yea you don't shift your
mindset and shift your goal to think. And again I'm
stating the obvious. I'm sure Aaron Rodgers thought about it,
but to think now, well, everybody wants and they're gonna

(01:21):
try to take it from me, so I have to
figure out a way to keep it.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:24):
What I'm more intrigued by Cavino is the people that
are so close and somehow just say nah, like Big
Mike who runs his place, who you're gonna hear his
words of wisdom in a few minutes. He brought up
JaMarcus Russell like a guy that had all the talent
in the world. He finally got there, but when he

(01:45):
got to the big stage, he sort of was like, yeah,
I just don't have it in me anymore, or like
a Johnny Manziel who was like, I'm I'm the party, likable, gritty, small.

Speaker 5 (01:57):
Quarterback, JaMarcus Russell. I had Season two. It's in Oakland
at the time. It's not that he was like I
don't have it in me anymore. He flat out got lazy. Yeah,
that's almost like he's drinking the purple drank and now
I know rich, But that's a little different than chasing
the dream and you're just tired, and you know what
I mean, Like, yeah, he didn't really get there because
he got drafted. He got that money, but like you said,

(02:18):
there's lots of examples of dudes who get the money
and then after that they go and spend the money
on a lot of five star meals and Michelin star
restaurants and all that, you know what I mean? And
so what's the passion in you? What's the drive in you?
But I like what you guys are saying. What happens
after for those guys that do reach the mountain top
with all that hard work. But I think about Kobe

(02:41):
rip look what he did post.

Speaker 3 (02:43):
You know NBA.

Speaker 2 (02:44):
It's like them exceptionally special. That's the takeaway here, because
you're right, Danny, do you get that payday? And you
could get lazy like okay, because that was the mountaintop
for a lot of people, a lot of people. It
wasn't winning Kobe Bryant, Tom Brady, people with the that
we're obsessed with winning. Even though they won, they kept
that fire alive.

Speaker 4 (03:04):
Man.

Speaker 2 (03:05):
And that's amazing when you think about it, because it's
so easy to just be content with what you're already
a complished And I'll.

Speaker 5 (03:11):
Give you guys props for a minute, you know, because
I make jokes a lot on our show because I
keep you guys humble. But one thing I loved working
with you guys three years ago was we were working
hard every Sunday night and the prize was, let's get
to a full time shift on the network.

Speaker 3 (03:27):
Here we are, We got it.

Speaker 4 (03:28):
You know.

Speaker 5 (03:28):
We had to bust our butts to get there. And
then we were like, we weren't content with that. Now
it's like, what's next? What can we do next? You
gotta keep that hunger. And it doesn't matter even if
we got big paychecks, would we be like, Hey, you
know what, let's take our foot off the pedal.

Speaker 4 (03:45):
Now.

Speaker 3 (03:45):
I want to broadcast from a space shift.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
Hey you got to shift to go over, Katy Perry,
Gail King, we want to do the first Fox Sports
radio radio show and podcast from the outer Orbits.

Speaker 3 (03:58):
Are you sure about that though, because they're getting a
lot of flack.

Speaker 2 (04:02):
We talked about it yesterday and a lot of people
saying it wasn't even real. You know, that's the weird
part of social media. People run with those stories. People
are so dumb people are saying, have you seen the patch?
I have you seen their patch? Where were their helmets?
Have you seen their patch? Turn the patch upside down?
It looks like the devil worshipers ah Satan. There's so
much conspiracy. I'm telling you I stand by what I

(04:25):
said yesterday. Anyone that has a problem with rich people
spending their money on dumb crap, work harder and go
move to a communist country. If you think everyone should
get equal stuff, Rich people buy opulent, stupid things. Katy Perry,
yel King. There's been that hundreds of thousands of dollars
on a frivolous space mission. But you know what they're riches,

(04:46):
timing and optics. That's why they're getting the backlash, even
though I don't care. That's the other side of the story.
There's people that spend a lot of money on stupid
things and no one bats an eye. I watch Receiver
like many people did on Netflix. No one cares that
Justin Jefferson spends hundreds of thousands of dollars on those
diamond in gold chains he wears.

Speaker 3 (05:07):
That's his choice.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
He's rich, he earned it. He's one of the best
wide receivers of this generation. So to wrap that up
from me yesterday, I stand by.

Speaker 3 (05:15):
Can you let this morning goes?

Speaker 2 (05:17):
I don't know, man, you might be on the wrong
side of their conversation because everyone's saying that they suck. Yeah,
everyone's hating on them, like as if they accomplish something
and they're not astronauts and we are their helmets and
it was all fake anyway. So regardless, it's about goal shifting,
That's what it is, and still being able to find
that hunger and not getting lazy, whether it be at

(05:38):
the workplace, on the field, or in your relationship.

Speaker 3 (05:42):
How do you keep the hunger alive?

Speaker 2 (05:44):
And we honor and respect the teams and players that
have been able to do that.

Speaker 3 (05:49):
It's like a hot girl that's stop shaving her legs.
What are you doing now?

Speaker 2 (05:52):
It's a two prong story, Rich before we get into
Mike's exactly shave those legs. Before we get into Mike's
Wednesday words of wisdom and prizes to give away in
midweek Major by the way your armpits two nothing a
bigger turn off to me and a lot of men.
A girl with stubby pits? Are you saying stubbly pits?
Give you the ac Now you sound like a high

(06:13):
maintenance pain in the ass.

Speaker 3 (06:15):
Shave your arm press So is that of a hard request?
So what do you lose? The hunger?

Speaker 2 (06:19):
This all came about because of the mom from Cobra Kai.
The mom from Cobra Kai is calling it quits. She's
done with the industry. It sort of exhausted her, the grind,
the delusions. So Prong two of this conversation of keeping

(06:40):
that flame alive, keeping that fire going.

Speaker 3 (06:43):
Eternal flame Bengal style.

Speaker 2 (06:47):
I will be the flame cheap trick style. Prong two
of this conversation is the white flame.

Speaker 3 (06:55):
Kenny Powers lafla bla blanca.

Speaker 2 (06:57):
No you boso, let me finish the sentence. We have
to be real. Yeah, she's a good looking woman. Daniel
LaRusso did all right for himself. Just a kid from Nork,
New Jersey, moves out to California. He's an all valley champ.
He has a car dealership, he has a nice home.
Listen man has dumb sports and goofy kids.

Speaker 3 (07:17):
But he has a hot wife.

Speaker 2 (07:18):
As dumb sports fans would say to reference our pal
Clay Travis, he outkicked his coverage.

Speaker 3 (07:25):
He did he did.

Speaker 2 (07:28):
So based on Courtney Hengeler in her retirement at forty six,
Amanda LaRusso the wife Who are the hottest TV moms?
And it could be a weird answer because everybody has
like a weird crush, especially growing up. Like, Hey, if

(07:48):
it was March Simpson, that's fine, let me know about it.
I want to hear about it. But let's talk about
the hottest TV moms.

Speaker 3 (07:54):
If it's March Simpson, let us know. But then also
let your therapist know.

Speaker 2 (08:00):
Yeah, if you want to talk about it, that's fine,
But hey, call us up with your answer at eight seven,
seven ninety nine on Fox. Because is there a standard answer?
Are there a top few? Because she's up there as
far as hot TV moms Cobra Kai the Netflix series
Way Back on a Wednesday?

Speaker 3 (08:19):
Are there ones that stood out to you? And it
could be.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
Something ridiculous because I grew up watching these shows and
your kid and what do you know? But were there
moms that you thought were hot? My hottest TV I
think there's a number one answer.

Speaker 3 (08:36):
I do too. I think there's a number one answer.

Speaker 2 (08:39):
But again, it's all generational, right, so I guess it
depends what you watched but let's chop it up. Let's
just let's just throw out a few names. Let's give
some honorable mentions. I I you know what, now that
I'm thinking about it, I'm torn between two I only
have Honestly, maybe I'm a picky guy.

Speaker 3 (08:58):
I only have one answer. There's only one, I guess
in the history of television.

Speaker 1 (09:02):
There's only one mom.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
But I don't I know you're thinking Modern Family. I
didn't watch that show, but I can't deny there were
some hotties on that show. Well, yeah, way to take
my one of my top answers, because I noticed shows
you like, No, what do you like? I didn't watch
a lot of those goofie shows, stupid documentaries about doctor busses. Yeah,
I've got more of that type of guy growing up.

(09:27):
Am I crazy to think this? When you think of
all the shows of the eighties, right, I'm an eighties kid,
eighties nineties. For me, when I think about all the moms,
it's not like I'm thinking at least Keaton, Meredith Banks
to burning Judith light Angela. Mona was hotter than Angela,

(09:47):
even though by the way, side note, Judith Lyte was
in the news recently she's seventy six. She looks exactly
the same. She looks fantastic. So I didn't think Angela
was much of a looker back then, But for a
seventy six year old lady, she looks fantastic.

Speaker 3 (10:06):
Someone's a little picky here. No, no, they're not my answer.
They could be.

Speaker 2 (10:09):
She was good enough for Tony Masceli, But okay, dude,
Mona was the hottest on that show. We're not doing
Hottest Grandma's though, because if we were, I'd have to say, uh,
Helen Roper is the answer hottest moms. Hottest moms has
to be Joanna Kurn's aka Maggie Malone, missus sever That's

(10:32):
that's my answer, constractive woman. She was a mom, but
she was still like hot, and she was hot enough
to be a newscaster on the show. I don't really,
I can't think of many hot moms on TV shows
growing up. So that's why, just by default, it's like
relative proximity theory. She wasn't that hot, but compared to
all the other moms on TV growing up, she was

(10:52):
the hottest. I got I got two that I'm I'm
thrown out there to start this Okay, I'm going modern family,
like you say, Jessin, But I'm not going Sophia Viagar.
Even though she is the mom to Manny Manad, She's
definitely the answer.

Speaker 3 (11:06):
I smoke.

Speaker 2 (11:07):
I think the answer underrated because of because of the
eye rolling sex appeal of a Sophia Viagara.

Speaker 3 (11:14):
She goes so onto the radar. You're gonna see her
again this summer.

Speaker 2 (11:17):
In the Sandman's Happy Gilmore Too, she returns as Virginia
Vennett Julie Bowen, mother of three kids, her goofy husband
Phil Dumphy. I think Julie Bowens Claire Dumphy is one
of the hot hotter than Sophia Vergara. Depends on what
your taste is. Oh, come on, that depends on what

(11:38):
you like. And I think my other answer, I'm going
back to the I'm going back to the late eighties
and nineties. You're not thinking mom because on the show
she's referenced as aunt more often. But when Uncle Jesse
and Aunt Becky had twins, that would make have mercy.

Speaker 3 (12:00):
Yeah, Loril, you know what?

Speaker 2 (12:03):
You know what, man, that's a pretty good answer, Lori
Laughlin is underrated.

Speaker 3 (12:07):
Laughlin.

Speaker 2 (12:08):
You know, I hate to say it that Jesse Castopolis
step that guy is so damn handsome it downplays her hotness.
It really is. But I think of Stamos is so
Stamos that his mullet hogged up her beauty. But you
really look at it? Yeah, you know what, Rich, I'm

(12:30):
not gonna argue that one. She is sneaky beautiful for sure,
I mean not even sneaky. But who gets all the
credit for being good looking?

Speaker 3 (12:36):
John Stamos? Enough with that guy?

Speaker 5 (12:38):
Can I flash you guys back? It's a way back Wednesday?

Speaker 3 (12:42):
Please? You know what do we all?

Speaker 4 (12:43):
You know what?

Speaker 2 (12:44):
We may have found an answer because if we all agree,
like Danny you said, you agree, Lori Laughlin, I actually
agree Lori Laughlin too. Rich brought her up? Sam, Does
she get your note? She might be the answer. But
who else you got?

Speaker 3 (12:58):
Danny?

Speaker 5 (12:58):
Well, when I was a little kid, I remember thinking
Claire Huxtable was kind of hot because she was a lawyer. Mike,
I want to marry a law and she was pretty
and she you know, she was like that woman that
we all thought. Man, if I get lucky enough to
I did find a successful woman in my life.

Speaker 3 (13:14):
She's a super good looking one.

Speaker 2 (13:15):
By the way, you ever see that weird clip when
when Bill Cosby's talking to her about the Spanish fly.

Speaker 3 (13:22):
You ever see that looking up from the Cosby Show?
Oh boy, Yes, weird as well. He gets real creepy with.

Speaker 5 (13:27):
Her when I said, way back Wednesday and this second time,
I'm shouting William out. My grandfather rest in peace. But
he had this huge crush. He would talk about her
and when this when the reruns of this would come on,
I swear I never saw this dude like this obsessed
with a woman. He never looked at my grandma like
this Mary Tyler Moore, Dick Van Dyke show. She was

(13:49):
a smoke show YouTube it. I mean all of us,
well think about it. You know that was way back
before all of us were born. But she was the
like when people looked at her, they're like, dang, that
girl is Yeah, she stole the show literally on that
TV show.

Speaker 3 (14:06):
Yeah there.

Speaker 2 (14:07):
Look, there's a lot of beautiful women in Hollywood, but
we're talking moms specifically.

Speaker 3 (14:11):
They were the TV mom.

Speaker 2 (14:13):
Well, I'll give you this, the woman that we talked
about earlier that just started the conversation about athletes and
celebrity a Manda LaRusso making it to the top. I
think Amanda LaRusso. The actress Courtney Hengeler is definitely up there.
She's she's beautiful. But if you want to talk hottest
TV moms, let's go eight seven, seven, nine nine on Fox.
Will talk to NFL coming up from NBA. But right

(14:34):
now your your hot TV moms. Let's start with Michael
in Virginia.

Speaker 3 (14:37):
What's up? Michael?

Speaker 6 (14:39):
Hey, what's up?

Speaker 3 (14:40):
I love the show.

Speaker 2 (14:41):
Guys, Thanks, Buddy's say, hey, Mike, before you give me
your answer, if you before you give me your answer,
if you.

Speaker 3 (14:47):
Had to choose Carol Brady or Alice, if you had.

Speaker 6 (14:51):
To choose, oh, that's a horrible one account Brady.

Speaker 2 (14:57):
But then again, Alice had Sam the butcher, oh hot
and bothered any but mine is believe it or not,
was married with children, Peggy.

Speaker 3 (15:09):
You know what. She was all horned up, so there
was some there was some hotness there about it. Like
I mean, al she would always go walk up to
the bedroom and be like, Eh, what do you want peg.
We have a theory here on the show.

Speaker 2 (15:21):
And maybe it's not a theory, maybe it's an obvious observation,
but all the redheaded ladies on TV growing up. We're
all horned up, missus roper Mona peg Bundy. Now, if
you were a redheaded mom or a woman on a
TV show in our childhood, you just wanted Yeah, I

(15:41):
guess yeah, you were. You were ready for the great answer,
peg Bundy. Peg Bundy was kind of she was hot
for as you. Weren't you more of a Marcy Darcy guy?

Speaker 4 (15:49):
No?

Speaker 3 (15:49):
I liked uh Steve.

Speaker 2 (15:55):
By the way, you know how you joke about your
name Steve being like sort of like an old guy
named Now, yeah, the name Steve and Rich and Mike,
they're starting to be like old guy in the eighties nineties.

Speaker 3 (16:05):
Yeah, the funny funny enough.

Speaker 2 (16:07):

middle aged guy down on his luck, and it's like, Hey,
I'm Steve, the Minecraft guy. Is his name is Steve?

Speaker 5 (16:25):
Man?

Speaker 6 (16:26):

Speaker 3 (16:29):
Yeah. I think people sleep on her because of the
goofy hair. Dude.

Speaker 2 (16:35):
Yeah, but you know what, Brian because think about it,
because Al was always like pushing her off like.

Speaker 3 (16:41):
She wanted it, and hold on, Brian, Let's go to
Brian for like a Brian back in the eighties.

She was wearing high heels and leopard prints and the
hair was that was fashionable back then. So it was
like sixties esque. Yeah, like a like a beehive. Yeah,

I don't even know what her name is, but the
chick from Idream of Jeanie every time she was in
a little satin.

Speaker 3 (18:46):
Laser Barbara Enien.

Speaker 2 (18:48):
Right, yeah, but hold on, she wasn't a mom because
I was thinking about her too, and she was fun high,
you know, same with Wonder Woman growing up. But yeah,
but they they have kids on the shop. She had
a baby and then she just kept it in the lamp.
I was thinking about it. I was thinking about it.
So hey, she she deserves a shout out. They were hot,
but she wasn't a mom on the show as far

(19:08):
as I remember.

Speaker 6 (19:09):
Okay, okay, real quick. Top three kegs of golf. Peggy

Come on, man, First, the first time I experienced jungle
fever was watching The Cosby Show, and then number one
Suzanne Summers and step by Step Boy one time aster
so bad.

Speaker 2 (19:25):
Come on, that's a great answer. The late great Susann Summers.
Didn't you pass away a couple of years ago.

Speaker 3 (19:29):
I got that right up.

Speaker 2 (19:30):
Yeah, Suzanne Summers and the hunky Patrick Duffy.

Speaker 3 (19:34):
Can you nothing to watch that?

Speaker 2 (19:35):
Because anytime I reference a nineties Friday Night TGIF lineup,
Covino was like, Yeah, you were sitting hold me to
your house picking your book watching TJFF. And I was
out with on dates.

Speaker 3 (19:46):
I was going out living my life. You were hanging
out with Steve Verkle.

Speaker 2 (19:49):
Well after Steve Verkle did I do that? Because it
was full house? Then it was perfect. Then it was
family matters and in between family matters and perfect strangers
step by step and it was perfect thighs. It was
Patrick Duffy and Suzanne Summers. It was still like a
modern day Brady Bunch where it was the Buzanne Summers

(20:09):
was so hot, especially in the threes Company days.

Speaker 3 (20:12):
Duodey doody do do do do?

Speaker 2 (20:15):
But I don't know, man, I think we got our
answer when we all agree it's fact. But we'll take
your answers. I don't know if you could beat Lori Laughlin.
I think we discovered it. She might be the hottest
TV mom. And it's a sneaky answer because we know
her as Aunt Becky, but she was a mom on
Full House.

Speaker 3 (22:16):
Be General Tires. We had a lot of fun today
so far.

Speaker 2 (22:21):
I feel like there's a theme of today's show and
it has to stay three of the Dan Patrick Hatrick.

Speaker 3 (22:25):
There's a little bit of delusion.

Speaker 2 (22:27):
There's a little bit of you know what happens when
you get to the top in sports or media or acting.
I got a lot of themes today, and I think
there's one more story that we're going to get to
in a few minutes. It has to do with delusion
and it has to do with Cam Jordan delusion or realistic.
But before we get to that story, two things. Number One,

(22:49):
we were talking about hot TV moms and someone brought
up Suzanne Summers. Of course, from Step by Step. What
if you want to go further back. Of course, Three's
Company is that where she, in your mind, made her mark.

Speaker 5 (23:01):
But she was just a mama on that show, not
a yeah.

Speaker 3 (23:05):
But on Step by Step she was a mom, Yes
she was.

Speaker 2 (23:07):
But I have to play this only because I guarantee
most people have never heard it. Cavino and I discovered
this years ago, you know, just looking up dumb stuff
on social media scrolling. There was an original theme to
Three's Company. We all know for the pilot. Yeah, we
all know. Coma knock, comea dog, Come, I'm my doe,
waiting for you.

Speaker 3 (23:27):
Oh we've been waiting for you.

Speaker 2 (23:28):
People know that, But the original was an instrumental and
it was so seventies. They just take a listen to
the og pilot theme song to Three's Company. That riff
is still rocking though, Do do Do Do Do do?

(23:49):
Dudey doody do. Maybe it was just like place filler
because they didn't have the words. Yeah, and they were like,
we have the found we don't have the lyrics yet.
But this was on the pilot episode. You could find
it on YouTube. So it's just like sitting on the
dock of the bay right when Otis Redding's doing the whistle.

Speaker 3 (24:09):
That's sad the end of the song. That's a sadder
thing though nice.

Speaker 5 (24:17):
He's like run out of lyrics.

Speaker 2 (24:18):
Yeah, that was just filler and they're like, yeah, you
know what, we're just gonna roll with that nod to
play us out.

Speaker 3 (24:24):
Well, I know.

Speaker 2 (24:24):
The sad part of the story, the sad real part
of the story is that it was meant to be lyrics.
The ending of Otis Redding sitting by the dock of
the bay, that's Cavino so perfectly whistled. Thank you by
the way you are like, I'm a whistling champion. That's
a topic for another day. Best song with a whistle
in it, patience, Guns n' roses or maybe some Billy Joel.

Speaker 3 (24:47):
Whistling in public?

Speaker 5 (24:48):
Does it get under your skin?

Speaker 3 (24:49):
It does mine.

Speaker 2 (24:50):
Yeah, I like a little okay with a whistle, a
little whistling in public.

Speaker 5 (24:54):
Someone's whistling like it's the nineteen forties.

Speaker 3 (24:56):
Someone's good mood. I feel like whistling.

Speaker 2 (24:58):
Spring Am asked that bad nick Lamba pocket all right,
Mickey Mouse, So I look at it this way. Whistling
is a good move thing. But that otis Redding song
is a sad story. I did not know this Sitting
by the dock of the Bay, which is a classic hit.
That guy died way young, and he passed away in
a tragic plane crash, and that song had not been

(25:21):
completed yet, so that whistle was filler until they figured
out how to end the song he dies. They released
that song after he had passed away, and they're like,
you just keep the whistle in it. I didn't know
that it's a classic.

Speaker 3 (25:36):
Part of the song. That's the best part of the song.
So you'll learn something here.

Speaker 2 (25:42):
Since I joined the Doug Gottliebs, usually I'm on that
show for you guys, and I teach you college basketball blocking.
He doesn't teach your fun facts like this. Well, I
close out every week. Here's how you box someone out,
Sam Final.

Speaker 7 (25:55):
The final Friday Rejoin I play sitting on the dock
of the bay, and I didn't know that with the
whistling see because he's at the coach at u W.

Speaker 5 (26:03):
Green Bay.

Speaker 4 (26:03):
Now I wonder if he knows that. Well.

Speaker 2 (26:05):
I hope I was right then, Sam, Now we're gonna
do something that we just started a week ago. We're
gonna bring it here to the Dan Patrick Show before
we get into midweek Major. We like to give you
some words of wisdom because we Covino and Rich sort
of lack when it comes to that. We're the worldwide
leaders of nonsense. I feel like I give good advice,
but I mean we're talking try, we're tell like words

(26:26):
of wisdom. So Mike, who runs his place, who I mean?
I thought he was like our dad's age. I remember
calling him, you look like an old stone cold. He's like,
I'm younger than him, and I felt like an ass
right right, But Mike is great. Since we worked here
at Fox Sports Radio, I think a lot of people
that listen Wes in the afternoon don't realize that Mike
is a big part of what we do every day.

(26:46):
We get here, Me, Covino, Danny g Spot the whole
crew sits down and Mike is a big part of
our pre show meetings and he's become a good friend
of the show.

Speaker 3 (26:55):
He's like the Confucius of the show kind of. I mean,
I think he thinks he's a Confusiste.

Speaker 4 (26:59):
Of the show.

Speaker 2 (27:00):
Yeah, Like when we brainstorm, he always like has some
like wisdom that he throws in there, and like, the
guy's a good point.

Speaker 3 (27:05):
You know, guys, like I've always said so, they've always
said so. He said.

Speaker 2 (27:09):
You know what, Mike, why don't once a week you
just drop a nuggative knowledge and you can pass along
to the Fox.

Speaker 3 (27:14):
Sports Radio world. So it's a little something new. Take
a listen.

Speaker 1 (27:20):
It's time for the guy that runs this place.

Speaker 5 (27:22):
Just for clarification, guys, Big Mike does not run this place.
He is not in charge of everything.

Speaker 3 (27:28):
He has no power over really anybody here.

Speaker 5 (27:31):
He does not run this place.

Speaker 1 (27:32):
It's Big Mike's words of wisdom on a Wednesday.

Speaker 4 (27:37):
Oh yes, if you don't want anyone to be critical
of your opinions, stop saying stupid stuff.

Speaker 3 (27:50):
That's his words and wisdom.

Speaker 2 (27:51):
That's good, good advice. If you don't want people to
be critical of your opinions. Stop saying stupid, stuffy Sti's good, okay, Yeah,
he's always sharing wisdom with us. We want to share
some with you, and thank you, Mike, thank you.

Speaker 5 (28:09):
Now we're passing the torture onto you.

Speaker 2 (28:11):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (28:12):
You know, we hear these things at the white pre
show table meeting, but normally we don't have to share that.

Speaker 3 (28:18):
By the way, let it be known that people of
all colors allowed at the table.

Speaker 5 (28:21):
Oh for sure. It just happens to be a white
table in a blue white in a blue kitchen, I
mean knows brown.

Speaker 3 (28:28):
By the way. So Mike's words a wisdom.

Speaker 5 (28:31):
Yeah, so here's the thing I thought. You know, if
we're torturing the audience and they are forced to listen
to Big Mike, who doesn't run this place, why not
pass a swiggy onto you. So if you can call
in and the guys will give you the number here
in a second, if you could call in and repeat
Big MIC's words of wisdom word for word, just like that,
you win a stainless steal seeing our swiggy.

Speaker 2 (28:53):
But it's got to be word for word, yes, sir,
all right, and you heard it, now repeat it. We'll
take your phone calls it eighty wait one more time,
now ninety nine on Fox. That phone number slow ninety
nine on Fox.

Speaker 5 (29:06):
The real numbers, not the letters. No, uh, Coveno, give
the phone number, but not the letters.

Speaker 2 (29:12):
Not on Fox eight seven, seven, nine, nine, six sixty
three sixty nine.

Speaker 5 (29:17):
There you go. When people give it the letters, I'm like,
I don't know how to dial like.

Speaker 2 (29:21):
That seven nine sixty three sixty nine. If you can
get it word for word, we'll give away our coveted swiggy.
So shake it out, light them up and call us.

Speaker 5 (29:32):
Now here we go. So listen. Now you've got to
repeat this word for.

Speaker 3 (29:35):
Word anything you should. I think you heard it. What
is it? Agree? I think we really.

Speaker 1 (29:39):
We said it.

Speaker 5 (29:40):
We played it once and Rich repeated it. But this
is the first time we're doing a giveaway.

Speaker 3 (29:44):
All right, Well, we're showing you how it works, one last.

Speaker 5 (29:46):
Day, one last time.

Speaker 4 (29:48):
If you don't want anyone to be critical of your opinions,
stop saying stupid stuff.

Speaker 3 (29:56):
All right, you can't mess it up though pressure's on.

Speaker 4 (29:59):
Mike.

Speaker 2 (30:00):
Let me thank you, Mike, And now it's time to
talk about delusion or realistic or as the kiddos say,
big Dreatman bra He's de Lulu now Cam Jordan, a
very likable NFL star New Orleans Saints, was on the

(30:21):
NFL Network within the last week. As we all get
ready for the NFL Draft, we're trying to figure out,
you know what, what what team is going after a quarterback?
Is there any more clarity in New Orleans as far
as what they're doing with Derek Carr. You know, as
you said yesterday, Danny g he's busy doing videos on
YouTube about Electric Betley's or whatever he's.

Speaker 5 (30:40):
Doing Rolls Royce. So a lot of the mock drafts
now have the Saints selecting a quarterback with their pick.

Speaker 3 (30:47):
Yeah, so you got to ask yourself, where are the
Saints at?

Speaker 2 (30:51):
And my answer was your Saints at at Last year
when we did our preseason predictions. And I'm not a
big pretty guy. I like gambling like everyone else does.
But in the studio we have our annual little chart
and you know.

Speaker 3 (31:08):
We picked Super Bowl winner MVP.

Speaker 2 (31:10):
We all make our fun little predictions to see if
anyone at the end of the year is close to
being right. Last year, when it came to worst team
in the NFL, that was one of the categories.

Speaker 3 (31:21):
I was quick to be like.

Speaker 2 (31:22):
Saints and if you remember, they won their first like
two games, I'm like, oh damn, look at that.

Speaker 3 (31:27):
Not too shabby. But then they ended up twelve, five
and twelve.

Speaker 5 (31:32):
So you said the whole time you didn't believe that
they were a good way.

Speaker 3 (31:34):
But they weren't the worst.

Speaker 2 (31:36):
The Patriots were worse, the Raiders were worse by but
they were the worst in the NFC sound. I look
at it this way. I thought all along they were
the worst, and I feel like they were tired for
last in the NFC sound to be accurate, because the
Panthers were also five and twelve.

Speaker 5 (31:50):
Yeah, now Rich Rattler got in and played, and Saints
fans weren't exactly happy with what they saw. So to clarify,
there were some mock drafters who already had the Saints
maybe taking Shador Sanders if he's still on the board.
It's going to be really interesting because there's there are
some analysts who think the Saints really need to move
up to get one of the top two quarterbacks in

(32:12):
this draft.

Speaker 2 (32:13):
Well, it doesn't matter what we think. One of the
star one of the lone star players on the team.
One of the only people that I think is a
bright spot. Cam Jordan was on the NFL Network and
he said something to the effect of when healthy, and
I have to say, went healthy is that was part
of the that was part of the deeper conversation.

Speaker 3 (32:35):
He had, and that's a key point though.

Speaker 2 (32:37):
He said, quote, I think we have a team when
healthy that's top two in the league. Top two in
the league, he said winning. He also said that winning
the NFC South was attainable, and I think that's a
positive outlook. Why not, I mean unhealthy you have to

(32:59):
have some sort of and your team, why are you playing?
When I hear that part of it, that's a little
more like, oh well, now you're talking to the Winning
the NFC South is attainable because I mean, the Buccaneers
are in your way.

Speaker 3 (33:10):
But it's not like they're superstars.

Speaker 2 (33:14):
They're not the Eagles, right, They're not the Buffalo and
scrappy tough teams. Like it's not like the Saints are
in the AFC North where everyone's pretty damn good. That's
that is a trash division. So I do think it's attainable,
definitely attainables. I mean, it's all like Atlanta disappointed a
lot of people last year. Tampa and Baker. That's a

(33:34):
good team, but you know, a couple of injuries, a
couple of things go wrong, that team could easily slide
under five hundred and the Panthers. You're assuming that is
this the year Bryce Young and that team gets it together.
So NFC South attainable. Yeah, that's that's not crazy talk.
But when healthy a top two team? So I ask you,

(33:55):
do you like when people are optimistically delusional or do
you rather when people keep it real? See, it's okay
to say these things because we haven't seen anything yet, right,
and he's a veteran player. I think he's just trying
to stay positive and show leadership. He even said that

(34:15):
I'm going to have to take over on the leadership side.
So he's trying to say the right things. And I
think that's fine. That's great. You want to have that
attitude heading into a season. That's what you want to hear.
So I think that is good. I think that's realistic.
I think he does believe that, and I think he
has to, you know, convince the other young teammates that
it is possible, it is attainable, And that's where winning begins,

(34:38):
So I do like that. I don't look at it
as delusional. I look at it as, yeah, the possibility
is there. But when it does bother me is when, like,
you know, your team stinks and yet they're still just
saying the right things for the headlines for the press,
and you're like, you know, you don't believe that, Like
as a Yankees fan, it often bothers me. Like my
only criticism about Aaron Boone is that he's way positive

(35:01):
all the time. He's like, dude, that guy stinks to
the high heavens and you're still defending him. Or that
was the worst play ever and you're still defending your team,
or on the worst losing streak possible and you're still
trying to find they're close. You're still trying to find
that silver lining or positive side of it, Like sometimes
you want to hear the realistic side of it and
they're just still being really positive. But sometimes that's what

(35:22):
good leaders do. They're trying to trying to keep things positive,
trying to give you something to root for. So that's
when it rubs me the wrong way. But as far
as like right now, before the season starts and when
you preface it with when healthy. I don't think they're
delusional at all. I think they can take the NFC
south and healthy. I will say something you said, I

(35:45):
don't even think you realize it was smart.

Speaker 3 (35:47):
He just said it. We think you think. I don't
think before I talk to.

Speaker 2 (35:50):
Sounds like you know, sometimes like a clock, a broken
clock is still right. Twice a day said it was
a broken clock. So you said sometimes, I think you
realized it was smart. Sure you said that when no
game has been played yet, anyone could really say anything
because you're right. It's not like mid season where your
team's twenty games on the five hundred, like.

Speaker 3 (36:10):
I think we're great, Yeah, you're not.

Speaker 2 (36:11):
In other words, if you're leading into a fight, right
and it's press day, you should have this belief that
I'm gonna knock this guy out in the third round.
This guy's a chump, he's a bump. I'm here to win, man,
I had the best camp. I'm here to train. That's
the confidence you need and that every athlete should have,
and that's why they're professionals.

Speaker 4 (36:27):
Right.

Speaker 2 (36:28):
But if he still has the attitude after he got
his ass knocked out, after they stopped the fight, in
the third round, you're like, oh, this guy's delusional. Yeah,
listen if it's or if it's a decision. He's like,
I still won that fight, even though every judge had
him losing. Yeah, yeah, I don't know. I'm not buying
that anymore. It lost and went to distance, he lost
eleven rounds to one. He's like, yeah, I figure I

(36:48):
still won that fight.

Speaker 4 (36:49):
Yeah.

Speaker 2 (36:50):
Having that attitude heading into things, I think that's where
you need to be well as a competitor. I'm glad
you said that, because until something happens, we as fans
gotta be real for a second and say we don't
know as much as the personnel, the coaches, and the
people actually there. That's why every year when the NFL

(37:11):
Draft happens, you're gonna hear blowhards like mel Kiper and
these is that a vampire.

Speaker 3 (37:15):
Or mel Kiper?

Speaker 2 (37:17):
Ah ah ah one two three downs ah ah first
pick one two three three picks ah ah.

Speaker 3 (37:26):
I think it's the count. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (37:27):
When you hear blowhards talking about the NFL Draft and
they think they got it solved, like this guy's gonna
be melk Kuiper is a blowhard. I think he's like
a know it all kind of guy. Same thing, though, blowhard.
I can think that we we work with a few
of them. Okay, you're right, I'm sorry, my apologies. Know
it all, But then again, that's part of the charm.

(37:48):
I guess right it is. But there's guys that act like,
here's my draft board. I got it right, and it's
like every year, without fail, it's like good.

Speaker 3 (37:58):
Bust, bust bust, good bust, bust, good player.

Speaker 2 (38:01):
Oh late round, guy, Wow that Lamar Jackson slipped that far,
but yet you know they took uh Mitch Terrmitzky. Every year,
It's no one really knows until a game is played.
And I bring that up because as a Mets fan
going into the season, I was very excited about the lineup.
I'm like Lindor Soto, Alonzo, Vientos, Nimo, like, this is

(38:23):
the Mets best lineup? Maybe can you hear me out? Maybe? Ever,
it might be the best Mets lineup ever. And I said,
you know what, the weaknesses starting pitching, and I saw
the coaching staff be like, man, the starting pitching.

Speaker 3 (38:37):
Is gonna be sick, and I'm like delusional.

Speaker 2 (38:40):
Meanwhile, the Mets are in first place, right, now the
lineup's cold as hell, and the Mets have the best team.

Speaker 3 (38:45):
E r A baseball.

Speaker 2 (38:47):
So hold on because I remember thinking like, wait, you're
trying to tell me because you don't know, you're trying
to know me Clay Holmes, Tyler McGill, Peterson, Canning, and
Senga that that's your elite ro as a Mets fan,
Rich can I remind you of Jacob de Gram because
again people are saying Cam Jordan's delusional to think that
they could win the NFC South and that they're gonna

(39:09):
have a good team. He said went healthy, he believes it.
Perhaps he knows some things. He's on the team. Yeah,
Plus he's taking a leadership rot. I called this to
the Jacob de Gram theory.

Speaker 3 (39:23):
We laughed.

Speaker 2 (39:25):
You laughed as a Mets guy when he said he
was leaving the Mets to play for the Rangers because
he believed in their winning attitude and winning culture like
the Rangers. We laughed about it, like, man, what is
he is he delusional? Is he just feeding us lines here?
But perhaps he knew something that we didn't. In fact,
he did the de Gram and the in creed took

(39:49):
that team to a championship.

Speaker 3 (39:51):
And even without him because he was hurt. So but
you thought he was delusion.

Speaker 2 (39:56):
It was a delusional thought that it was like, oh,
you know what, maybe he does no more than we know,
so always keep that in mind. So, you know what,
With that said, I wish Cam Jordan and the Saints
all the luck in the world, and it would be
pretty funny if that team had a winning record, did
surprise everyone, and Cam Jordan could be like, yeah, I
knew it because we talked about how injuries could play
such a role. Look at my forty nine ers last year, Cavino.

(40:19):
They went from NFC Championship in Super Bowl year after
year after year. A couple guys get hurt, locker room
gets a little discouraged. You know, veterans are aging. Things
could change real quick. So we shall see. Good luck
to the Saints. Now, you want to try to get
a winner for this game, and then we'll get into
midweek major now exactly, so, if you could repeat word

(40:39):
for word Big Mike, who runs this place Wednesday words
of wisdom, you could win a covenant.

We'll go fast. We could give Spotty nine full minutes.
This to me. When you hear the horns, you have
made it to the middle of the week. Before we
hand things over to the number one and only host
of the segment. We like to roll the two big
red love dice in the main studio.

Speaker 2 (44:23):
Danny g Sticky red Love Dice, the giant red Love Dice.

Speaker 1 (44:27):
I just rolled, mate.

Speaker 5 (44:29):
This is to see who gets first tape? Why are
they sticky?

Speaker 4 (44:32):
You know? Love?

Speaker 2 (44:33):
I ask.

Speaker 5 (44:36):
And a ritual. It's got seven I will Torino gets
to go first. And now, ladies and gentlemen, the most
famous person besides Judy Bloom from Scotch Plains New Jersey
spotty boy.

Speaker 7 (44:48):
You know, I thought it three hours, I'd get like
double the time, but I guess not all right, thanks
the page. Becker's effect already taking shape in Dallas. The
w NBA number one draft pick drafted to the Wings
earlier this week, and ticket sales and prices have already
seen a major spike. Beckers, who helped her Yukon Huskies
win the twenty twenty five NCAA Championship, has been getting

(45:10):
a lot of the tension to the court of obviously so.
The ticketing site Psycheek said that sales on their site
are up eleven times with a nine hundred and five
percent increase in traffic and if you want to have
that for comparison. They're saying that when Caitlin Clark was
announced that it was was going to be going to
the Fever, that there was only a sixty percent increase

(45:30):
in traffic for that, so huge increase to the for Dallas.
And if you're curious, the average ticket price between Becker's
and Clark their first face off is around five hundred
dollars right now, so midwek or major.

Speaker 2 (45:43):
I do think it is major, but I do think
that is the Caitlin Clark aftermath.

Speaker 3 (45:49):
Is the Kaitlin Clark effect.

Speaker 2 (45:51):
Not to take away from Page Beckers, congratulations to the
Yukon Huskies and props to the Dallas Wings. Spotty likes wings.

Speaker 4 (45:59):
Don't you like to?

Speaker 3 (46:00):
Don't you like them?

Speaker 2 (46:02):
And it's cool to see that increase, But I do
think it's carry over from last year's hype and we're
sort of prisoners of the moment.

Speaker 3 (46:09):
Will this sustain it depends how great she is.

Speaker 2 (46:11):
It would be way cooler if they actually wear the
Dallas wings and it was like buffalo wings. Yeah, Levin Pepper,
please listen, this is this is major. Page Becker's is fantastic,
and I have to be the real one in the
room here though, I can't, uh, I can't allow all
the cheerleading to go on without saying that numbers and
statistics are meant to be.

Speaker 3 (46:32):
You know, you can manipulate numbers.

Speaker 2 (46:34):
When ticket sales go up eleven times, that means maybe
last year they sold two hundred tickets, now they sold
twenty two hundred tickets. So let's let's keep it real.
No one's in love with the w NBA to the
point where it's NBA level or anything substantial. Kaitlin Clark
has Caitlin Clark has the effect. But let's wait and
see them still on the right track here. Were definitely

(46:54):
on the right track. But when you say something like
up nine percent, I'm you got to think a way
the starting point is, and I compared to salaries. If
someone's making Jack Didley squat and it's like, hey, you.

Speaker 3 (47:07):
Get a ten percent raise. A ten percent raise of.

Speaker 2 (47:10):
Nothing is not that much Jack squad every due to you,
I know, but hey, I wish them well.

Speaker 3 (47:15):
All right over to the NBA.

Speaker 7 (47:17):
So Luca has officially dethroned Lebron James and Steph Curry
when it comes to Jersey sales, becoming the highest selling
NBA jersey since the February sixth trade deadline. Sales on
nbastore dot com up twenty one percent compared to last year,
and that's primarily driven by Lucas trade to the Lakers,
Steph Curry coming in at two, Lebron at three, of

(47:38):
Jason Tatum at four, and Jalen Brunson at five. And
this is the first time that one of the top
player jersey hasn't been Lebron or Steph since the twenty
twelve twenty thirteen season, the weaker major.

Speaker 3 (47:51):
Major ten year record broken.

Speaker 2 (47:54):
I think this is a clear example of turning dilemmas
into dilemonade. Poor guy, it's dissed over to the Lakers.
He didn't want to go, but look, he's making the
best of it. Not the Lakers suck or anything like that,
but he was happy and had unfinished business in Dallas.
Now the fans are behind him, and he's the number
one selling jersey in a league full of superstars the NBA.

(48:19):
If you're beating out Lebron and Curry and Tatum and
all these dudes, I think you're doing something right.

Speaker 3 (48:23):
Props to him.

Speaker 2 (48:24):
I think it's major, biggest trade in NBA history.

Speaker 3 (48:29):
I mean we were in Vegas when it happened. I
remember everyone in the casinos Luca ad it was a
big deal.

Speaker 2 (48:35):
And listen, you can take one of the biggest stars
put him on the Los Angeles Lakers.

Speaker 3 (48:40):
This doesn't surprise me.

Speaker 2 (48:41):
I just got to ask if the Lakers somehow found
a way to win the NBA title this year and
Luca got there last year with the MAVs and fell
just short. Is Luca's legacy on a different level.

Speaker 3 (48:54):
That's why big.

Speaker 2 (48:55):
I also think that some of these sales are coming
from Dallas fans who were tired of Nico, want him fired,
and they still support Luca as we saw recently had
his homecoming. I think there's choosing to root for the player,
not the team, but still in support of Luca as
you're selling. Can I call out our coworker, Rob Parker.

Speaker 3 (49:18):
Wasn't it Rob Parker on the Odd Couple that said
he's impossible to root for?

Speaker 2 (49:23):
That was mad Dog Rob Parker too. I mean a
lot of people didn't you know what impossible to root for?
Are you sure about that little gig y? Oh he's yeah,
he's got crocodile tear. Rob said that he was crying,
uh you know, fake crying. But anyway, whoever said that,

(49:44):
it's whoever says Luca's heart to root for Jersey Sales
will say something different.

Speaker 3 (49:50):
Oh back to me, okay, next game.

Speaker 7 (49:52):
I know you guys are huge fans of like the
World Baseball Classic, Love baseball. Well, it was announced that
as the Olympics return state side, that baseball will be
making a return to the Olympics when they come to
the US and right here in La for the twenty
twenty eight Summer Olympics, and of course games will be
held at the iconic Dodger Stadium. The Olympic Committe announced
it yesterday on their social They couldn't be more excited

(50:14):
for the stadium to host the games in twenty twenty
eight and at the iconic ballpark of Dodger Stadium. So
Baseball A little hit behind the history of baseball and
the Olympics was started in nineteen hundred as a demonstration,
became an official Olympics sport in nineteen ninety two in Barcelona,
but was discontinued in two thousand and eight. Made a
quick appearance in twenty twenty in Tokyo, but was off

(50:37):

Speaker 5 (50:37):
So now they're bringing it back because.

Obviously baseball hugely the stay right now major major another
major story, good stories, because look, I'm a huge baseball
fan and you're putting baseball on a world stage.

Baseball is an international sport more than ever, so I

the He's the one.

Now with the Olympics at Dodger Stadium, you have all
these international fans experiencing the beautiful Dodger.

Speaker 3 (51:09):
Sam's a great stadium.

Speaker 2 (51:11):
I think we're gonna see some highly competitive international baseball.

Speaker 3 (51:14):
Super fired up for it. Man, I think that's great.

Speaker 2 (51:17):
You know, I agree everything is said, donal need to
repeat it, but I find it funny. Have you guys
all seen the morons on social media when Aaron Judge
was announced the captain of the twenty twenty six team and.

Speaker 3 (51:27):
People like, see, he's better than Otani?

Speaker 2 (51:29):
He was named captain and people like, uh, you know
O Tani is on team Japan.

Speaker 3 (51:34):
Well, Tratt was the previous one.

Speaker 2 (51:36):
But yeah, back just spot story funny the Olympics. It's
kind of cool too because when we were kids growing
up rich which was what was one of the most
coveted baseball cards.

Speaker 3 (51:46):
Do you remember the Mark McGuire USA car. There you go.

Speaker 2 (51:49):
So we're gonna have all that fun too, Like yo,
kids are gonna run wild with that. One last question.
We saw the show Hey Otani Star. I'm sorry show.

Speaker 1 (51:56):
Hey show Hey Otani. Honey.

Speaker 3 (51:59):
We've seen his star rise quite a bit. Could he
know in the last year or so?

Speaker 1 (52:02):
Right?

Speaker 2 (52:02):
Like, I mean, he was in he was in baseball,
he was down in Anaheim with the Angels, but he
wasn't the star he is now. Do you think the
very beginning of Next Level Star was when he struck
out Mike Trout to end the World Baseball Classic?

Speaker 3 (52:15):
Didn't hurt?

Speaker 4 (52:16):
Man?

Speaker 3 (52:16):
Is that like step one in Super Super Duper Star?
That was big?

Speaker 4 (52:20):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (52:20):
Oh tany love. I love baseball on big stages like this,
so major spot.

Speaker 7 (52:25):
I got to sneak in a draft story since it's
coming up next week. University of Miami QB. Cam Ward
expected to be one of the top, if not the
first name called the next week's NFL draft, and may
have dropped some hints as to where he's already headed.

Speaker 3 (52:37):
The twenty two year old was doing.

Speaker 7 (52:38):
A Fortnite video game live stream I know you love those,
and was asked about his top NFL running backs, responding
with two stars from the Tennessee Titans. He was then
asked about his favorite receivers, responding with two stars from
the Tennessee Titans. So the Titans do have the first pick.
Ward has already met with the team, so there has
been speculation, but it seems like he's going to be

(52:59):
playing next next year.

Speaker 2 (53:01):
Video definitely major cam Ward, twenty two year old superstar
throwing hints, dropping hints, by the way, I think it's major.

Speaker 3 (53:10):
For another reason.

Speaker 2 (53:12):
I feel like this is part of another trend that
might be growing because where do a lot of young
kids get their music from video games?

Speaker 1 (53:19):
Now?

Speaker 2 (53:20):
We're dropping sports headlines via video game feeds on Fartnite, right, That's.

Speaker 3 (53:26):
Where you get your scoop. That's crazy. I think it's major.

Speaker 2 (53:30):
It's pretty clear he's going to the Titans. Yeah, but
he gave some info out there, but I uh some
live video games. But what I do love about it though,
is uh how you know how blatant?

Speaker 3 (53:42):
He was like what was the next question? Like, Hey,
where's the best place to party?

Speaker 2 (53:46):
And he's like, probably Broadway in Nashville, Like you know,
it's gonna be a fun thing for that city because
that's that that town is fantastic.

Speaker 3 (53:54):
And they're Thurston.

Speaker 2 (53:55):
They're like Thurston Howell the Third, They're Thurston for some
some good quarterback actions.

Speaker 3 (54:00):
Let's who you can't ward does? Hey, cam Warden, what's
your favorite arrested development song?

Speaker 2 (54:04):
Tennessee, Tennessee, Tennessee, Tennessee.

Speaker 7 (54:09):
All right, Rich, do you want a Jackson Mahomes story
or do you want to hear about a fun cute
gender reveal?

Speaker 4 (54:16):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (54:16):
Gender reveals?

Speaker 7 (54:17):
Because I like him in Okay, well, I don't know
if you saw this, but Bryce Harley both stink spot?

Speaker 3 (54:22):
Can Can that be my answer?

Speaker 4 (54:23):
Yeah?

Speaker 7 (54:23):
Do you want to hear about QR codes on Baseball's
I also got that?

Speaker 3 (54:26):
Okay?

Speaker 7 (54:27):
Bryce Arbor able to share a special moment during Monday
Night's game as the Phillies took on the Giants. At home,
he and his wife expecting another child, his wife Kayla,
they already have three children, so during a team meeting,
he revealed that his wife is expecting and en listened
to the help of teammate Trey Turner to help with
the gender reveal. So Harper had two custom bats made
by the same company that makes the torpedo bats Victors sports,

(54:50):
one pink, one blue, and he handed it over to
Turner and so like in the dugout, you saw him
like playing with the bats, like handing him to pick one,
then handed in the blue headed the pick one, eventually
handed him.

Speaker 3 (55:01):
The blue one.

Speaker 7 (55:01):
He walked out to take that bat, struck out, but
showed that he was having a boy.

Speaker 4 (55:07):
Well.

Speaker 7 (55:07):
Phillies also went on to lose, which also sucks, but
still is.

Speaker 5 (55:10):
A special moment.

Speaker 3 (55:11):
Midweek or major.

Speaker 2 (55:13):
Should be major, but I'm going midd oh, come on,
min First of all, gender reveals are corny, but this
one's kind of creative and kind of hude.

Speaker 3 (55:21):
You hate about it.

Speaker 2 (55:22):
You're a buzzkill because they're a big Look at me
and watch me. Why I light something on fire and
cause destruction.

Speaker 5 (55:30):
That's true.

Speaker 2 (55:30):
There's so many stories where it's gone wrong. Once I
blue moon the idiots to go overboarding.

Speaker 3 (55:35):
You hate it. This is amazing. Yeah, this is a
really nice one. I like it.

Speaker 2 (55:38):
But if you're gonna bust out the blue Bat and
everyone's watching you in that moment, you gotta make some contact.

Speaker 3 (55:46):
You gotta get a hit in that moment.

Speaker 2 (55:48):
If you would have told me yeah, and he drove
a double into the gap, or oh man, he hit
a bomb, he is the bomb that would have been
the story is so much cooler. So I'm happy for
Bryce Harper. I think he's a true rock star in
the game. He's a superstar. I'm happy for his family.
But the fact that he's struck out with the blue
Bat makes it less of a story. Cavino, Captain Buzzkill,

(56:09):
Captain Underpants. I think it's great that. I think it's major.
I love Bryce Harper as a Mets fan. It pains
me to say that. I think he's one of my
favorite players in the Game's good for baseb and I
congratulations to him and his wife. And I think gender
reveals are fun unless you just don't burn anything down
or hurt anyone. Otherwise, just fun times people celebrating great
moments in their life.

Speaker 3 (56:30):
How could you hate on that?

Speaker 5 (56:31):
Yeah?

Speaker 3 (56:31):
Also, Jackson Mahome as a girlfriend, just so you know,
he likes girls. Here's major
