He's a movie star. We're gonna get to the Dodgers.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
Confidence versus cockiness, dilemmas on airplanes, a lot of rando stuff,
and a lot of fun here on Covin on Rich Today.
But I do want to say that I think you
and I making that Mets Yankees bet is going to
provide a lot of annoyance and fun throughout the season
because every time the Yankees lose. Now I feel like
a little little tingle, little tangle, little tingle, because it's
(03:35):
just one game.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
I get him.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
He feels a tingle in his baseball dingle I do
in his mini torpedo bat. I do want to talk
about sho Hey Otani because he was at the White
House and President Trump, I mean, called the guy movie star.
Speaker 3 (03:54):
Take unanimous National League MVP show. Hey Tony.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
Tenny, come here, give me here, give me here, come on,
let me give you a niggy.
Speaker 1 (04:12):
He slapped him on the ass.
Speaker 3 (04:13):
It looks like a movie star. He's got a good future.
I'm telling you. He shattered all of those records last year.
Think of it, all of them. And he did something
even more because he became the first ever member of
the fifty to fifty club.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Oh yeah, that so the president giving props to oh Tony,
he's at the movie star Tony.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Yeah, politics aside. That's so cool.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Your politics start out the window just for a minute, Tony,
and just appreciate it. He's recognizing the greatness that we
speak of on the daily. I thought that was cool.
I thought it was a cool moment. And he does
look like a movie sce. And you know, it's all
ties together, I promise you. We have too much to
get to to get into a long winded conversation about
(05:00):
movie stars.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
Otani look at him, Oh Tani, but Joe, hey, Otani looks.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Like a movie star.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Today is the anniversary of two classic baseball movies that
are near and dear to us.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
And if Otani could be a movie star, then we.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Got to shout out. The cast of Major League came
out on this day in nineteen eighty nine, so that's
what thirty six years ago, or for how long yet?
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Thirty six years ago?
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Thirty six And in nineteen ninety three, the Sandlot debuted.
So two of the best baseball movies ever came out
on this day. And real quick, do you have a
favorite movie star? Baseball player. Is there someone that you think, Wow,
they were convincing as a ballplayer And you can't say
(05:49):
Charlie Sheen because I think that's the obvious answer. Well,
I like that we're celebrating both of these movies today
and we post that question again at eight seven seven
ninety nine out Fox if you want to chime in
eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. Because there are
two baseball movies, but two very different movies. Yeah, for really,
there's nothing. The only commonality here is the fact that
baseball's the backdrop, but two very different movies. You know,
(06:12):
one stars Benny the Jet Ronriguez. He should be in
the conversation and he already said Rick Vaughan. But the
coolest fictional baseball player. It's a great question. We open
it up to you. Ohtani looks like a movie star,
but when it comes to actual movie stars, who is
the best character? You know? I hate to agree with Mike,
but again he's in the conversation, Mike, who runs his
(06:35):
place in our pre show meeting Mike.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
He looks like Rick from Pulstars.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Mike, he said Roy Hobbs, the wonder Boy with the
Wonder back.
Speaker 5 (06:44):
I talked about that music last week he did.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
The Natural has to be in the conversation Roy Hobbs,
because you almost believe that he was a real guy,
Like you bought into that story right, like the lightning
hit the tree, he made a bat out of it,
Like you believe the story of Roy Hobbs almost at
least I did. It's like my brother who thought Forrest
Gump was a true story. The Natural in my mind,
was like a real movie, like a real story, real person.
(07:10):
So again, who is the coolest fictional baseball player of
all time?
Speaker 2 (07:14):
We open it up to you. Do you have an
immediate answer?
Speaker 1 (07:18):
I think, listen, I think I got mine, but no
one's gonna agree, so I'm holding them. I think the
obvious answer from Major League would be the wild Thing,
because he had the mechanics, and as the stories gothered,
everyone in a million the coolest guy in that movie.
You could say Pedro Serrano was the coolest guy in
that movie. Are you in hand?
Speaker 2 (07:37):
People don't realize it's the same guy.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
People don't know that's Dennis Haysbirth Haysworth Haysbert Hayes, birth Hayes,
Bert Hey, Dennis hay.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Hayes, Burt There it is is there an Ahanaire somewhere?
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Yeah, yeah, the first letter, there's another like thh like
bird no. But we had him on our show and
he was like, are you in good hands? Like, dude,
I can't believe that. Are you in good hands? President
from twenty four is the same Pedro Serrano that we
were convinced with some Dominican guy who was talking about
(08:12):
Joe Boo all the time. That's a great answer. I
think wild Thing Rick Vaughan's a great answer. I think
Roger Dorn is the cocky, which we're gonna talk about later,
cocky versus confidence infielder the veteran. But I think it
was such a focal point of the movie. I think
the Aging Catcher played by Tom Berenger Jake Taylor, didn't
(08:34):
he rod you have like almost like a washed up
Gary Carter type where they weren't like Card was like
fist kind of yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Carter was too clean cut in like a nice guy.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
It seemed like Jake Taylor was like washed up Catcher playboy,
And I thought that was a great character. You could
say just maybe on form someone throws you off, like yeah,
I didn't like had a throw it wasn't convincing.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Like, how do you feel about Ray Liota in Fiel
the Dreams?
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Like there's someone that sticks out, but that's not fictional,
So maybe he doesn't count because Joe Jackson was a
real dude.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
Yeah, how about uh that he was super realistic in
his role Bernie Mack, mister three thousand dude.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
You know, I've never seen that movie. I've never seen it.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
I don't think he had the smooth swing of Tony
Gwynn or Wade Boggs or anything, or Griffy didn't didn't.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
I mean, I'm picturing Bernie Mack.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
I don't remember being that impressed, but you know what
I was like, Dennis Quaid on the Mound was convincing
when he always played. I think the Wade was also
based on a real guy that dude played for Tampa.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
But I'm saying who was convincing. It doesn't.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
I'm saying, like you said, fictional character. Okay, you know
who had a good swing, mister baseball Tom Selleka, Yeah,
he was a good ballplayer. What do you got, damn Byer.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
I do think in Major League, especially in our era,
when you would have old crafty pitchers that the role
of Ed Harris or Eddie Harris.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
He played like a film meet time, Yes, exactly, like
a guy who just gets by with all of his junk,
like a Charlie Huff.
Speaker 6 (10:03):
Yes, yes, exactly. Like there were actual players that I
could think of.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Charlie. I thought he was like eighty two, still pitching
for the Rangers. So that's who that reminded. That's a
good one, Dan Ron, that is a good one, you know,
very convincing, very great answer. But you mentioned Dennis Quaid.
He played Jim Morris, which was based on a true
story who was a gym teacher turned devil rays pitcher.
So I don't know if that technically counts, but you
(10:29):
got to give Dennis Quaid the nod because he's at
least a convincing ballplayer. Our buddy Sean hit us out.
Young Jay Hernandez was in that movie too. Our buddy
Shawn out here in La listening on the iHeart app.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
What's up, buddy?
Speaker 1 (10:40):
He said, Uh, Kevin Costner might be the most convincing ballplayer.
Kurt Russell not too shabby either. I'll tell you one
that was not convincing to me. And I love the guy.
He's always been very kind to Cavino on Rich I
mentioned the movie, but probably too cool for a gaal
like Steve Covino, you know, captain cool over here. Yeah,
that's to call me angels. The outfield they had ew Hey,
(11:03):
Tony Danza, someone in continuity must have been like, do
an exaggerated follow through when you pitch? He did this deal,
remember this whole like, oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
My gud followed through.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
It was absurd.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Yeah, it was an absurd following through. You're right.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
So my answer, I've waited and I've waited for one better,
but I haven't heard one yet. So I was thinking,
is it Carmen Ronzoni from The Bad News Bears? Remember
Carmen Ronzoni, he had the cool leather jacket.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Carmen Ronzo.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
Or is it Kelly Leak? And it has to be
Kelly Leak of the Bad News Bears. And here's why
I say that. He as a little kid, and I'm
watching the original Bad News Bears movies, right, Kelly Leak
was supposed to be a little Leak player. And he's
rolling around on a moped, driving at moped to the game,
smoking cigarettes.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
He looked like a like a burnout who.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Is at least thirty three years old playing on a
little league team.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
So Kelly Leak from.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
It was always the quintessential late seventies early eighties badass
fictional baseball player. I'm sticking with my answer. It's not
Carmen ron Zoni. It's Kelly Leak of the Bad News Bears.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
I'm not gonna give.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
I'm not going to give that my number one spot,
but I'm trying to think of it made by Jackie
Earl Hayley, by the way. I mean, people are pointing
out on social media right now that it's an old
guy answer rich, but it's a good one, mister baseball
played by Tom Selleck. Tom Selleck played baseball at usc apparently,
so Hey, speaking of actors and show, hey could be
(12:35):
a Hollywood star with his face and physique. Isn't it
odd to you that Billy Crystal actually took in that
bat for the New York Yankees, and so did Tom Selick.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
That is cool.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Tom Sellick did in Detroit, I believe, like in a
spring training game. Look that up, mister baseball. Tom Selli
himself went yard, right, he went yard in Detroit. If
I'm not mistaken, I'm just picture he went yard, but
I know he made contact too, and I'm pretty sure
he hit one out look it up. But Billy Crystal
also had the honor because he's so affiliated with being
a Yankees fan and he did the sixty one movie
(13:06):
and everything. I remember, of course he took in that
bat with the Yankees. Like what an honor that is.
Even if it's just like a gimmicky goofy thing, I
think that's awesome. I remember loving the movie forty two
and the late Chadwick Boseman. He was good as Jackie Robinson.
But I don't know if on the field the mechanics
were were one hundred percent there. And another guy we
really enjoy, Mark Paul Gosler. Yeah not I used to
(13:29):
like that show Pitch.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
But he even admitted, like his mechanics, he's not a ballplayer.
I'm like telling him, I'm telling him, you said all right.
In nineteen eighty six, while working out with the Detroit Tigers,
Tom Selick, known for his role in Magnum p I
hit a batting practice home run at Tiger Stadium.
Speaker 6 (13:44):
That's pretty sweet. But he appeared in the game right.
There was like a there was an actual game. I
remember him seeing him suit up.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Yeah, I don't I know the practice one.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
There should be a video that I've recently seen on
TikTok and the last night every spring.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Training it was an old timers game. I'm seeing some
footage here, but based on all this stuff and the show, hey,
I think honor and compliment from the President because you
could imagine like in person dude not only like tall,
but he's a good looking dude.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Honestly, it's like a movie star.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
The guy's not only a superstar, maybe one of the
best ever.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
He could be a movie star. Listen to the president
I show.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
Hey, oh Tani, come on, it's a six foot fourth stunt.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Hey, we found out that he's a looks like a
movie star.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
He's a model.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
I mean he's also a commercial star because there's a
story to go along with his commercials in Japan. If
you've noticed that the Dodgers have a cool new celebration,
and you might be wondering if you haven't seen this
on social media yet, the Dodgers, the whole hip flexer
thing has sort of taken a back to the It
looks like some type of seventies disco move almost like
(15:03):
a zoolander where you're putting two fingers in front of
your eyes, like whoa like a pulp fiction type of
move that is mocking in a fun way. Otani. When
they were in Japan, they saw that he did a
like a skincare ad for a decort light boast and
he pulls the product in front of his eyes like
(15:25):
he pulls it across his eyes. And that is now
the the rally cry and celebration of the Dodgers, as
if they needed more chemistry to bring them closer, just
to put a bow on.
Speaker 6 (15:36):
The Selek stuff. April third, nineteen ninety one, Selik appears
in a spring training game for the Tigers against the
reds Oh Wow. At one point hits a foul ball
that Chris Sabo tries to track down but it lands
in like the photographer well or whatever, but bounces outside
back onto the field of play. Glenn Braggs then picks
(15:58):
up the baseball and everybody he wants that foul ball.
Who wouldn't want a foul ball hit by Tom Selleck
that ends up striking out in the bad in the
bottom of the eighth inning. But he did appear at
a spring training game.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
How about thank you dB, I have seen some of
the highlights. What about I'm just throwing this out there,
but you remember Brendan Fraser. I'm sorry, Brendan Fraser in
The Scout nineteen ninety four. And did you mention your
favorite mister Destiny Rich. I know you're a big fan
of Jim Blushy.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Great movie. I love that movie.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
As a kid, Mister Destiny Rich was a big friends
like nineteen ninety But there's only like five people I
know that love mister Destiny.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
I thought that was such a good movie. I rented
that movie as a kid a lot.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
That's why. Plus John love it's in that movie. It's
a one when you think of it's his friend Clip.
Here's why I want you to think of these fictional
characters too, because a lot of times when I think
about some of the weak ass movies we watched growing
up Rich and we loved them, a lot of times
they didn't have the rights to actual teams in uniforms,
so it was like generic Yankee guy.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Yeah, talking about your friend's week Halloween costume.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Yeah, it was just the generic pinstripes with the blue hat.
They couldn't even represent the Yankees in the proper way.
So there was always that guy that stood out to you.
He was like the big bad guy on the on
the opposing team. So who comes to mind. We'll wrap
it up with your phone calls right now at eighty
seven to seven ninety nine on Fox.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Josh in Ohio.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
We'll start with you as Tani looks like a movie star. Oh, Tani,
who's your favorite actor playing a baseball player?
Speaker 7 (17:27):
So it's it's my favorite because he plays the perfect
Chicago cub, washed up pitcher. Chet the rocket Stedman.
Speaker 8 (17:35):
Played by Gary Busey and Rookie of the Year Gary Busey.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Buttered Sausage, by the way, you know that's a fake clip,
that buttered sausage clip. I thought that was real. Why
don't you two ruin that for me? I know you
spot Yeah, you interviewed him and he is a whack
of dude. I mean everybody knows that he's a wacky dude.
Talk about butter sausage. That clip that's gone viral is
not a real clip.
Speaker 9 (17:55):
Right the way it was he's acting, or he's it's
it's an it's no, it's c g I, or it's
someone with like a deep fake like a filter. Really yeah,
oh mind, it's a comedian comedian that was on SNL,
but I thought.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
It was real when if you don't know what we're
talking about, there's a famous clip from a maybe a
year ago or so where it's Gary Busey and he's like, let's.
Speaker 9 (18:15):
Talk about buttert Sauces on some podcast or something, and
that completely.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Not a real clip, over and over again that you
can't believe anything on the internet.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Who else do we got? Bo in South Dakota? What's up?
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Bo hey bow?
Speaker 8 (18:28):
It was so I gotta say, Kenny Powers mc dude.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
I retract my answer. Kelly Lee could take a hike.
Kenny Powers has to be the winner. And you know what,
Rich and I not to brag Fox Sports Radio Nation,
but we've interviewed Danny McBride a few times and you
better believe that we both had him autograph of baseball
that says, Kenny Powers I give to my brother for Christmas?
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Did you really you gave that away?
Speaker 1 (18:54):
Gave that to my brother? Man, I'm gonna I'm gonna
hang that up my man keeping. I will say this
the best. I mean, it's a different conversation, but I
think maybe the best sidekick funny guy in TV in.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
The last decade might be Stevie from that show.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Oh we love Stevie An That chemistry between Stevie and
Kenny Powers, it's unmatched. And I think that is the
number one answer because I absolutely loved it.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
I'm still waiting to rewatch. Say you're you're my Stevie?
You think so, Let's go to Montana, Dave all the
way down to my plump. What's that, buddy?
Speaker 7 (19:30):
One? Got a couple here? You mentioned Kurt Russell for starters.
He actually was a professional ball player. He played for
the Portland Mavericks. Yeah, back in the seventies.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Dad on the team.
Speaker 7 (19:40):
Do you ever get achieve? Yeah? His dad bing Russell
on the team. If you ever get a chance to
see and I hope I can say this, The Battered
Bastards of Baseball.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
I love it.
Speaker 7 (19:48):
Excellent to documentary. You have not mentioned Chris Pratt Seattle
Boy Moneyball.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
Oh dude, that's a really good one. By the way,
two great answers. He's absolutely right about that documentary. So
when you're done on the White Lotus finale, The Battered
Bastards of whatever it's called, fantastic movie. Kurt. It's actually
a documentary about Kurt Russell and his dad and that
baseball team and how he played. And again, just a
great one. You know what, We'll take the rest of
(20:14):
your answers next, we'll wrap this up. We got other

he has been working with Bobby Wood Junior and Jeter,
So he's gonna be doing a hang with us on Thursday.
Speaker 2 (22:53):
Over Promise. Coach Ballgame. That's on Fox.
Speaker 1 (22:55):
Sports Radio's YouTube page if you want to catch up
on the other eighty six episode. Again, over promised, Sweeping
the Nation I'm Steve Cavino, that is Rich Davis, and
I was just watching the footage of Trump with Sho
Hao Tani, and, like I said, politics aside, let's be
adults for a second.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
Trump and Otani.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
Oh, show hey Otani watching the mutual respect.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
You know, and we've seen Trump doesn't necessarily respect everybody.
Seeing the mutual respect between him and show Heotani in
that moment, it's actually heartwarming and nice.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
It really is.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
It's so nice to see because you can't deny the superstar.
Speaker 5 (23:36):
He went out of his way though, to let him
take extra photos too.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Did you see that he's like and now stand by
the declaration of Independence?
Speaker 9 (23:44):
Don't it, don't steal it, don't pick a gray player
and a great person.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Really was it was about he's a great human, but
show me very respectful. The whole thing was very nice.
And based on that, based on the fact that Trump
said he looks like a movie star and the fact
that today's the anniversary of Sandlot and Major Lee. Oh,
that's why the market bounce back a little today.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
The market bounce back.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
We asked you the coolest fictional baseball player, and we're
gonna wrap it up with your phone calls real quick.
I'm sticking with my answer. I said Kelly Lee for fun,
but as a kid, I did think he was a badass.
That's from Bad News Bears. I do lean Benny the
Jet Rodriguez. I think that's a cool answer on the anniversary.
But let's wrap it up with these three. Did you
not change the Kenny Powers? That was someone else's answer.
(24:30):
It was a great answer.
Speaker 5 (24:31):
I'm silling, Yeah, before we get to the lines here,
Rich two people couldn't hold Kathleen and Vermont said, don't
forget about the ladies. How about Gina Davis and she was.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Great based Dottie.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Yeah, bas that was still based on real people. I
love the depiction, like I said, kit Keller her sister Yeah,
played by Lori Petty. They both sold it well. Lori Petty,
in my opinion, best known for point Break.
Speaker 5 (24:56):
And then Bruno Madonna said, yeah, Madonna did good in them,
you know. In Brooklyn said, as far as major league goes,
Wesley Snipe sold it for him running on the bass
pass like Ricky Henderson.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Surprise, it took that long for someone say Willie May's.
Speaker 5 (25:08):
Hay right and then and then uh, Wesley also played
a baseball player in that movie The Fan.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Yeah, I was creepy. That was a good movie.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
That was a good I'm gonna stick though with the
aging Jake Tail and Jake Taylor. Tom berenger Ato was great.
And of course the easy answer is Charlie Sheen or
I mean, God goes on and on in that movie,
because you could say Pedro Serrano like you said, Dennis
Hayes Birth Haysburg, Hasburg. Are you Matt so Cal?
Speaker 2 (25:34):
What's up?
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Bro Yo?
Speaker 7 (25:36):
Colbino and Rich Natural Content back by since orbs. It's
always good to talk to you, guys.
Speaker 8 (25:43):
I got real quick. It's softball. But Al Bundy could.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
I love that clip. I don't know how famous that
clip is, but when there's someone watching him, like that's
Al Bundy and he's like shagging flies. Yeah, he's like
he scored four touchdowns in one game. You see Al
bun he snagging flies in the field special episode or something,
the cliff floating around. Yeah, I've seen it on social media,
but I don't necessarily remember that episode. That's Al Bundy.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Gary in Florida, what's up?
Speaker 8 (26:10):
Gare Hey, guys, thanks for taking my call.
Speaker 7 (26:14):
It's a little bit under the radar.
Speaker 8 (26:15):
But how about Brian Keith playing Jack Parkman in Major
League two? Because you're asking for the coolest fictional baseball player.
Didn't have many scenes in the movie. That was very,
very cool the way he played like the obnoxious, arrogant
pre agent coming in and I thought that was great.
And then one quick thing, Jack Herohley wrote wrote to
Harley because remember in the scene later when they're in
the in the ballet studio chasing Jada O'Neil down they
(26:37):
won and got in the playoff. He says, uh to
the to the hot like twenty five year old woman,
Harley Davison. Did that turn you on?
Speaker 1 (26:44):
That?
Speaker 4 (26:45):
Harley?
Speaker 1 (26:45):
But he does roll up in a mopad on one
scene when he rides up to the field either way
Kelly the edge hold on he mentioned Jack Parkman. Do
I remember the fun fact that Bob Buker drops in
Major League about Parkman? What does he saying about Hi,
Jack Parkman? Once through? It is no, wait, wrong guy.
I'm thinking of the wrong guy who wants through his
(27:06):
own son at a father son game. I remember that
the reliever that came in. Of course, I remember the
line Jack Parker was the powerhead of damn it. I
remember Jack Parkman. I just looked him out for sure.
Wrapping up one more phone call eight seven seven ninety nine,
l Fox, we have other things to get to.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Ron and Rochester. What's up aout?
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Hey? Ron?
Speaker 10 (27:24):
Hey you guys. Yeah, so Charlie she could actually throw
in the uper eighties. He was a real pitcher. Yeah,
and Tom Seal had a basketball scholarship. And you know,
George Bush Senior played first base at Yale. John Wayne
played football at Ohio State. But in the movies, Zach
Effron is swing in the second movie what's it called
High School Musical, He's got a really good swing. It's
(27:47):
like it's got a really nice swing. And that's that's
what I really liked. Was like pretty impressive. And Ton,
you know, Kevin Coston swing is pretty good too, But
check out Zach Effron swinger was really good.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
You know, I never heard that, but I have to
look it up. Zac Efron so he could swing the
bat too. It was Duke, by the way, who I
don't know, is I keV? Is it Duke someone that
threw his own kid in the father Son game? All
I'm getting his Duke? But hey, great answers. Everybody, thanks
for playing along. Figured it was the anniversary of Major
League Coming Out in Theaters nineteen eighty nine and Sandlott
(28:18):
ninety three, both on the same day and also in
the same day that President Trump honored cho Hee Otanian.
And it seems like the entire team, in the entire
city of la and the entire sport of baseball celebrating Otani.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Like we said, he's celebrating right now, the Detroit Tigers.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
They beat you Yankees. I see that celebration. Homefield advantage
is freezing there, snowing Detroit. His sun came out finally,
Shoeotani to wrap up the story again. His celebration has
gone viral with the Dodgers. His makeup, closing of the eyes,
sort of celebrate dance celebration based on his commercial is
(28:54):
the new Rage and they're selling T shirts and everything.
It's a commercial he did for the court Light bost
So Home. He's the spokesman in Japan and they all
saw it. By the way, Danny G speaking of random
Dodger stories, you gotta look this one up. Don't know
if it's true because I saw it on social media.
Key k Hernandez was wearing like an X rated hat
of sorts, and people zoomed in on it. Oh yeah,
(29:16):
And now he's like backtrack and saying, hey, I feel
a little disrespected that they photo shot my hat. But
really the hat he was wearing getting onto the plane
was something X rated yet hilarious all at the same time.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
I don't know if you saw that. I'll have to
check that. Check that out.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
And by the way, I thought Dan Bayer had a
great line on It was a Thursday show last week.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
We were talking about ken o'tani.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Do anything wrong, he said interpreters, Yeah, that's it, because
I feel like everything else, the way he gives a
little nod to every manager out of respect, the way
he only he plays stain on his on his resume,
and you know what, it's his not even his fault. Yeah,
And he plays with a passion, he plays with a
childlike fun. He's a winner. He's respectful even in a circumstances.
(29:57):
Who knows if he agrees or disagrees with Donald Trump's politics.
He went to the White House and was a man
of respect like everythingday he would probably get some backlash
from his countryman. No or he was risking that oh, no,
Tani and they came up to with a tiff deal today.
Speaker 5 (30:17):
How about Yamamoto, you guys see him in the White House.
He did not look as he looks like he's being
held prisoner.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
Yeah, hostage. You have to imagine. It was a risk
there and it was a great encounter. It's nice to
see and he's a superstar. We talked about that last week.
Speaker 2 (30:32):
Hey, listen, we.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
All know that Dennis Robin almost you know, has the
ability to stop wars, right, so how do we know
that Trump has a crush on Atani and therefore, hey.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
Japan tariffs a little lower maybe yeah, they cut a brake.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
So anyways, thank you guys. We have to talk about
airplane dos and don'ts. There's a story, and we're going
to talk stadium dous and don'ts plus last one standing.
The game has sweep in the nation with it do
and don't The difference between confidence and cocking is lots
to get to.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
But Dan Byer with an update. First, what up dB,
you guys touched on it.
Speaker 6 (31:08):
Tigers beat the Yankees today six to two. Andy abanias
a three run shot for the Tigers, Aaron Judge and
the losing effort did have an RBI, so that puts
his league leading. I should say yeah, major league leading,
eighteenth RBI for Aaron Judge. Both the Yankees and Tigers
sitting there at six and four. Tonight, the national champion
(31:30):
and men's college basketball will be Crown Florida and Houston
will play in San Antonio tip off eight fifty Eastern
Time Women's Top twenty five. The final poll of the
season is out. No surprise, Yukon wins the national championship yesterday.
They finish at number one South Carolina. The runner up
is at two. UCLA Texas and USC round out the
top five. The Jacksonville Jaguars have exercise the fifth year
(31:51):
option on the contract of defensive end Travon Walker. Walker
was the first overall pick in the twenty twenty two
NFL Draft. Today's practice round at the Masters washed out
because of rain. Got to play till about it's eleven
thirty this morning, and then it was called off for
the day. Master's chairman Fred Ridley announced that a partnership
with Tiger Woods and the TGR Foundation, we'll see a
(32:13):
learning center built in the Augusta area, plus a nine
hole par three course will be built to the next
to the renovated Augusta Municipal golf Course. And finally, guys,
a couple of notes from the NBA Trail Blazers gave
GM Joe Croner a multi year contract extension. He'd say
bam ad a bio questionable for tomorrow's game against the
Sixers because of a back injury. John Moran expected to
(32:33):
play tomorrow for the Grizzlies.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Guyspect thank you, Katy B. By the way, Rich appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
dB. I'm looking up Kelly Leak from The Bad News
Bears just because our coller said he drove a Harley
and because he played a twelve year old in the movie.
Maybe I just always assumed it was a mopet he
was driving. He really is driving a Harley and smoking cigarettes.
So again, your favorite fictional say kid in the seventies
or eighties, the right, yes, smoking, he was smoking cigarettes
on the team. I always thought that was hilarious. I
(33:01):
thought he was a badass. That Keith Rnandez, Yeah, exactly.
So you could leave your answer at Covino and Ridge
for the coolest fictional baseball players. But we have other
things to get to, uh, like this there was a
hilarious story and it has to do with Michelle Williams, remember,
formerly of Destiny's Child. She has a story from a
flight and it's one of those like don't we know
(33:22):
not to do this on a plane. It has to
do with someone's feet. So we're gonna put our own
little twist on it. Stadium and sports dudes and don'ts
will explain. We'll do that coming up. Plus Baker Mayfield
being compared to Shador Sanders and it has to do
with confidence or cockiness.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
All that coming up right here.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
Fox Sports Radio, Cavino and Rich, Big weekend for Lenny
Kravitz's bff, Jason Momoa, the star of Minecraft with Jack Black.
It's crazy how Kravitz and Momoa are like bff and
they were both married to Lisa Bonet bro sesty goal.
I guess life goals to somehow make it work with
(34:04):
your blended extended family a little much for me, though,
Cavino and.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
Rich, you're not working on that with your xos. I'm
good on that.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
Fox Sports Radio eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. Hey,
for the record, you're the one that brought up your
ex wife today, not me. That is true for once.
I hope you had a Minecraft Vlad Junior sort of weekend.
And I heard that Dan Patrick clip right there, and
I was telling Rich the same thing earlier, That whole
long term, fourteen to fifteen year deal thing is for
(34:32):
the birds. Talk to me in ten years when he's
playing like an old Albert Poolhols, like his feet hurt,
you know what I mean, Like, get.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
Out of here with that.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
I know you don't care because it's not your money,
but you're gonna care when that dude is a liability
and he's old and overweight. Well, urso is not my
money for me as a Mets fan, Sodo, you can say,
if you're a Blue Jays fan, slattle.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
For fifteen years.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
But he looks six months pregnant in the offseason this year.
So when he's looking, when he's looking like Bartolo Cologne
in five years, tell me if that's a good deal.
Speaker 5 (34:58):
But cove Arnthi's teams just hoping and banking on the
fact that hopefully they'll get one World Series or two
titles absolutely and then it pays for itself. That's what
they're hoping. Who's a pipe dream? I'm a Mets fan
in my forties one World Series when I was a
school boy. My daughter is like, Dad, have the Mets
ever won the championship? I told yeah, but that was
your right. If the Mets get one, they're big dreaming bro.
(35:21):
Though in fifteen years, they're like, we got to get
two in fifteen right.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
If they get one, I'd be the happiest little boy.
I'd be like the happier than Pinocchio. Yeah, well, guess
what I would The Dodgers have show hey Danny, so until.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
He's already given him one.
Speaker 4 (35:34):
Yes, show heyhy till he's on.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
The team the Mets.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
Yeah. Go, I'm just saying I don't care. It's not
my money. There's no salary cap in baseball.
Speaker 7 (35:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
Still stuck with that guy for fifteen years, and now
the Blue Jays are stuck with a twenty six year
old lad junior. But he's gonna be forty by the
end of that contract. Again, I don't worry about what listen. Yeah,
but it's detrimental to the team in the future. The
Cardinals asked the Yankees who held on to Jeter. I,
giving as much as I love Jeter, that did hold
(36:05):
them back from moving forward because they were they were
so tied into that contracts. As much as Kobe Bryant
is loved out here an listen, and not only was
he one of the greatest. When he passed away in
such tragic nature, his legacy only grew right. But there
was a time where a lot of Lakers fans they
forget because they think of Kobe only fondly. Now, there
(36:25):
was a time where there were Lakers fans that thought
the end of his contract was holding the organization well.
Speaker 5 (36:30):
And he didn't ask for it. Jeanie Bus gifted that
to him. It was like her version of a gold
watch to him.
Speaker 1 (36:35):
And you know, congrats to them too for making that happen.
I think it's important to keep those legacies alive with
one team. I think that's nice. But that's a very
long time, guys, fifteen years. Fourteen years, give me a break.
Ever Root in the ever Root analogy. But it's on
the long it's along the lines of what you and
Dan Patrick agree on.
Speaker 2 (36:53):
Yeah, these long contracts, it they're too long. It's like
it's like it's like marrying.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
A swimsuit model in her prime and you know she
has bad eating habits and you're like, sounds rude, but
like that's like so rude, but you know what I mean?
Or like Janett like you gosh, I should I just
stop this one, digging yourself deeper into he's losing his
mind and we're reaping all the benefits. What you're really
(37:22):
trying to say, what Cavino's saying, and with Dan Patrick
saying without saying it, is you're just hoping that by
signing Sodo, who you said is gonna be Bartolo Cologne
in ten years. So we aren't you saying the same thing?
And you know, let's be honest, what does some mom
look like a slugger, but a thicker slugger like a
Vladdie junior. You're saying good luck when they're forty. What
(37:43):
you're really saying is like you married the pain in
the ass girl who doesn't work out. She's just like young,
so it's like, what are you gonna get when she's older?
Speaker 2 (37:51):
That's all rude. Maybe I'll just shut up.
Speaker 1 (37:53):
Now how many years I'm looking this up? Because this
is crazy? You want to feel old for a second?
Do you know Prince Fielder's son is already like on
the draft market?
Speaker 2 (38:06):
Wait the third one?
Speaker 1 (38:07):
The Prince Fielder, his son, his son. So I'm saying,
Prince Fielder was a big dude and he was a
stellar player. Right, retired with the same amount of home
runs as his dad, Cecil I think three zero nine
or something like that, over three hundred home runs. Isn't
the fun fact that they have the same number of
career home runs? Yeah, Prince played twelve seasons in the
(38:29):
big leagues, Grand opening, Grand closing. You're gonna tell me
Vlad Junior, who's weighing in at a good two sixty
probably right now, is gonna last fourteen years? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
I hope.
Speaker 1 (38:41):
So, Look, it's a win for the player, but for
the organization, who I don't care about. But for the fans,
you're stuck with that guy. Look, I'm coming from the
fan perspective. There's pros and cons to it. Hey, props
to the player getting you know, getting his money. Looky,
Stevie boy, you know what they're everyone's trying to do,
and the reality is that everyone's trying to do in
(39:02):
La Rams And what did the Rams do? A lot
of teams have tried this, but the Rams successfully went
all in. Remember they went all in and they won
a Super Bowl and listen, they're back sooner than people
thought now looking competitive. They got Pooka and you know,
Stafford's still there. But there was a point where if
you're a Rams fan, you had to say, we went
all in won a Super Bowl. Good.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
I don't care if we sort of sting for.
Speaker 1 (39:26):
A little while. We did it.
Speaker 2 (39:28):
We did it.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
And if you tell me the Mets won a World
Series in the next let's say five years, because Soto,
Lindor and Alonso in their prime won one, I don't
care if they don't want another one for twenty years.
I've been waiting since I was pee in my bed.
I was a little boy when the Mets won in
eighty six.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
Give me one. I don't care if Soto's.
Speaker 1 (39:48):
Is slug when he's thirty five, forty years old, doesn't matter.
I mean, there's a few ways to look at it.
I appreciate that, and I respect that. It just seems
like such a long time. I agree, a fourteen fifteen years,
But then again, we're not seeing a lot of players
stay with one team. So again, I don't want to
talk out of both sides of my mouth, because I do,
like the lawyer with one team and the loyalty. We
(40:08):
rarely see that in today's world. Let me give you
an anelogen man.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
That's a long, long contract to give somebody.
Speaker 1 (40:13):
Let me give you an analogy in our world, would
it be weird to give a radio or TV personality
or podcast or a long deal like give you know,
you know what you're getting with Soto, We know the
Fox sells what they're getting with Kvin On Richard, Rob
Park or this person. Is there a length where you're like,
I don't know if they'll be funny, then I don't
know if they'll be entertaining. Then there's contract extensions that
(40:33):
only go so far. In media, you don't know. You
don't know if this personality is going to be as
good in ten years. They do it in every industry,
So I get what you're saying. It's for firsteen years
is a long time to assume that they'll be as
good as what they do then. But can you grass
you want to sign the best artist to a twenty
year music deal? No way though, not hating, just stating
(40:55):
not more.
Speaker 2 (40:56):

and a lot of fun here on Covin on Rich Today.
But I do want to say that I think you
and I making that Mets Yankees bet is going to
provide a lot of annoyance and fun throughout the season
because every time the Yankees lose. Now I feel like
a little little tingle, little tangle, little tingle, because it's
(03:35):
just one game.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
I get him.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
He feels a tingle in his baseball dingle I do

It looks like a movie star. He's got a good future.
I'm telling you. He shattered all of those records last year.
Think of it, all of them. And he did something
even more because he became the first ever member of
the fifty to fifty club.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
Oh yeah, that so the president giving props to oh Tony,
he's at the movie star Tony.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Yeah, politics aside. That's so cool.
Speaker 1 (04:38):
Your politics start out the window just for a minute, Tony,
and just appreciate it. He's recognizing the greatness that we
speak of on the daily. I thought that was cool.
I thought it was a cool moment. And he does
look like a movie sce. And you know, it's all
ties together, I promise you. We have too much to
get to to get into a long winded conversation about
(05:00):
movie stars.
Speaker 4 (05:01):
Otani look at him, Oh Tani, but Joe, hey, Otani looks.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Like a movie star.
Speaker 1 (05:10):
Today is the anniversary of two classic baseball movies that
are near and dear to us.
Speaker 2 (05:15):
And if Otani could be a movie star, then we.
Speaker 1 (05:17):
Got to shout out. The cast of Major League came
out on this day in nineteen eighty nine, so that's
what thirty six years ago, or for how long yet?
Speaker 2 (05:26):
Thirty six years ago?
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Thirty six And in nineteen ninety three, the Sandlot debuted.
So two of the best baseball movies ever came out
on this day. And real quick, do you have a
favorite movie star? Baseball player. Is there someone that you think, Wow,
they were convincing as a ballplayer And you can't say
(05:49):
Charlie Sheen because I think that's the obvious answer. Well,
I like that we're celebrating both of these movies today
and we post that question again at eight seven seven
ninety nine out Fox if you want to chime in
eight seven seven ninety nine on Fox. Because there are
two baseball movies, but two very different movies. Yeah, for really,
there's nothing. The only commonality here is the fact that
baseball's the backdrop, but two very different movies. You know,
(06:12):
one stars Benny the Jet Ronriguez. He should be in
the conversation and he already said Rick Vaughan. But the
coolest fictional baseball player. It's a great question. We open
it up to you. Ohtani looks like a movie star,
but when it comes to actual movie stars, who is
the best character? You know? I hate to agree with Mike,
but again he's in the conversation, Mike, who runs his
(06:35):
place in our pre show meeting Mike.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
He looks like Rick from Pulstars.
Speaker 1 (06:39):
Mike, he said Roy Hobbs, the wonder Boy with the
Wonder back.
Speaker 5 (06:44):
I talked about that music last week he did.
Speaker 1 (06:47):
The Natural has to be in the conversation Roy Hobbs,
because you almost believe that he was a real guy,
Like you bought into that story right, like the lightning
hit the tree, he made a bat out of it,
Like you believe the story of Roy Hobbs almost at
least I did. It's like my brother who thought Forrest
Gump was a true story. The Natural in my mind,
was like a real movie, like a real story, real person.
(07:10):
So again, who is the coolest fictional baseball player of
all time?
Speaker 2 (07:14):
We open it up to you. Do you have an
immediate answer?
Speaker 1 (07:18):
I think, listen, I think I got mine, but no
one's gonna agree, so I'm holding them. I think the
obvious answer from Major League would be the wild Thing,
because he had the mechanics, and as the stories gothered,
everyone in a million the coolest guy in that movie.
You could say Pedro Serrano was the coolest guy in
that movie. Are you in hand?
Speaker 2 (07:37):
People don't realize it's the same guy.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
People don't know that's Dennis Haysbirth Haysworth Haysbert Hayes, birth Hayes,
Bert Hey, Dennis hay.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Hayes, Burt There it is is there an Ahanaire somewhere?
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Yeah, yeah, the first letter, there's another like thh like
bird no. But we had him on our show and
he was like, are you in good hands? Like, dude,
I can't believe that. Are you in good hands? President
from twenty four is the same Pedro Serrano that we
were convinced with some Dominican guy who was talking about
(08:12):
Joe Boo all the time. That's a great answer. I
think wild Thing Rick Vaughan's a great answer. I think
Roger Dorn is the cocky, which we're gonna talk about later,
cocky versus confidence infielder the veteran. But I think it
was such a focal point of the movie. I think
the Aging Catcher played by Tom Berenger Jake Taylor, didn't
(08:34):
he rod you have like almost like a washed up
Gary Carter type where they weren't like Card was like
fist kind of yeah.
Speaker 2 (08:42):
Carter was too clean cut in like a nice guy.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
It seemed like Jake Taylor was like washed up Catcher playboy,
And I thought that was a great character. You could
say just maybe on form someone throws you off, like yeah,
I didn't like had a throw it wasn't convincing.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Like, how do you feel about Ray Liota in Fiel
the Dreams?
Speaker 1 (08:59):
Like there's someone that sticks out, but that's not fictional,
So maybe he doesn't count because Joe Jackson was a
real dude.
Speaker 5 (09:06):
Yeah, how about uh that he was super realistic in
his role Bernie Mack, mister three thousand dude.
Speaker 2 (09:12):
You know, I've never seen that movie. I've never seen it.
Speaker 1 (09:15):
I don't think he had the smooth swing of Tony
Gwynn or Wade Boggs or anything, or Griffy didn't didn't.
Speaker 2 (09:22):
I mean, I'm picturing Bernie Mack.
Speaker 1 (09:24):
I don't remember being that impressed, but you know what
I was like, Dennis Quaid on the Mound was convincing
when he always played. I think the Wade was also
based on a real guy that dude played for Tampa.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
But I'm saying who was convincing. It doesn't.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
I'm saying, like you said, fictional character. Okay, you know
who had a good swing, mister baseball Tom Selleka, Yeah,
he was a good ballplayer. What do you got, damn Byer.
Speaker 6 (09:46):
I do think in Major League, especially in our era,
when you would have old crafty pitchers that the role
of Ed Harris or Eddie Harris.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
He played like a film meet time, Yes, exactly, like
a guy who just gets by with all of his junk,
like a Charlie Huff.
Speaker 6 (10:03):
Yes, yes, exactly. Like there were actual players that I
could think of.
Speaker 1 (10:07):
Charlie. I thought he was like eighty two, still pitching
for the Rangers. So that's who that reminded. That's a
good one, Dan Ron, that is a good one, you know,
very convincing, very great answer. But you mentioned Dennis Quaid.
He played Jim Morris, which was based on a true
story who was a gym teacher turned devil rays pitcher.
So I don't know if that technically counts, but you
(10:29):
got to give Dennis Quaid the nod because he's at
least a convincing ballplayer. Our buddy Sean hit us out.
Young Jay Hernandez was in that movie too. Our buddy
Shawn out here in La listening on the iHeart app.
Speaker 2 (10:39):
What's up, buddy?
Speaker 1 (10:40):
He said, Uh, Kevin Costner might be the most convincing ballplayer.
Kurt Russell not too shabby either. I'll tell you one
that was not convincing to me. And I love the guy.
He's always been very kind to Cavino on Rich I
mentioned the movie, but probably too cool for a gaal
like Steve Covino, you know, captain cool over here. Yeah,
that's to call me angels. The outfield they had ew Hey,
(11:03):
Tony Danza, someone in continuity must have been like, do
an exaggerated follow through when you pitch? He did this deal,
remember this whole like, oh yeah.
Speaker 2 (11:14):
My gud followed through.
Speaker 1 (11:15):
It was absurd.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Yeah, it was an absurd following through. You're right.
Speaker 1 (11:19):
So my answer, I've waited and I've waited for one better,
but I haven't heard one yet. So I was thinking,
is it Carmen Ronzoni from The Bad News Bears? Remember
Carmen Ronzoni, he had the cool leather jacket.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Carmen Ronzo.
Speaker 1 (11:34):
Or is it Kelly Leak? And it has to be
Kelly Leak of the Bad News Bears. And here's why
I say that. He as a little kid, and I'm
watching the original Bad News Bears movies, right, Kelly Leak
was supposed to be a little Leak player. And he's
rolling around on a moped, driving at moped to the game,
smoking cigarettes.
Speaker 2 (11:53):
He looked like a like a burnout who.
Speaker 1 (11:55):
Is at least thirty three years old playing on a
little league team.
Speaker 2 (11:59):
So Kelly Leak from.
Speaker 1 (12:00):
It was always the quintessential late seventies early eighties badass
fictional baseball player. I'm sticking with my answer. It's not
Carmen ron Zoni. It's Kelly Leak of the Bad News Bears.
Speaker 2 (12:12):
I'm not gonna give.
Speaker 1 (12:15):
I'm not going to give that my number one spot,
but I'm trying to think of it made by Jackie
Earl Hayley, by the way. I mean, people are pointing
out on social media right now that it's an old
guy answer rich, but it's a good one, mister baseball
played by Tom Selleck. Tom Selleck played baseball at usc apparently,
so Hey, speaking of actors and show, hey could be
(12:35):
a Hollywood star with his face and physique. Isn't it
odd to you that Billy Crystal actually took in that
bat for the New York Yankees, and so did Tom Selick.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
That is cool.
Speaker 1 (12:46):
Tom Sellick did in Detroit, I believe, like in a
spring training game. Look that up, mister baseball. Tom Selli
himself went yard, right, he went yard in Detroit. If
I'm not mistaken, I'm just picture he went yard, but
I know he made contact too, and I'm pretty sure
he hit one out look it up. But Billy Crystal
also had the honor because he's so affiliated with being
a Yankees fan and he did the sixty one movie
(13:06):
and everything. I remember, of course he took in that
bat with the Yankees. Like what an honor that is.
Even if it's just like a gimmicky goofy thing, I
think that's awesome. I remember loving the movie forty two
and the late Chadwick Boseman. He was good as Jackie Robinson.
But I don't know if on the field the mechanics
were were one hundred percent there. And another guy we
really enjoy, Mark Paul Gosler. Yeah not I used to
(13:29):
like that show Pitch.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
But he even admitted, like his mechanics, he's not a ballplayer.
I'm like telling him, I'm telling him, you said all right.
In nineteen eighty six, while working out with the Detroit Tigers,
Tom Selick, known for his role in Magnum p I
hit a batting practice home run at Tiger Stadium.
Speaker 6 (13:44):
That's pretty sweet. But he appeared in the game right.
There was like a there was an actual game. I
remember him seeing him suit up.
Speaker 2 (13:53):
Yeah, I don't I know the practice one.
Speaker 6 (13:56):
There should be a video that I've recently seen on
TikTok and the last night every spring.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Training it was an old timers game. I'm seeing some
footage here, but based on all this stuff and the show, hey,
I think honor and compliment from the President because you
could imagine like in person dude not only like tall,
but he's a good looking dude.
Speaker 2 (14:16):
Honestly, it's like a movie star.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
The guy's not only a superstar, maybe one of the
best ever.
Speaker 2 (14:23):
He could be a movie star. Listen to the president
I show.
Speaker 4 (14:26):
Hey, oh Tani, come on, it's a six foot fourth stunt.
Speaker 3 (14:38):
Hey, we found out that he's a looks like a
movie star.
Speaker 2 (14:41):
He's a model.
Speaker 1 (14:42):
I mean he's also a commercial star because there's a
story to go along with his commercials in Japan. If
you've noticed that the Dodgers have a cool new celebration,
and you might be wondering if you haven't seen this
on social media yet, the Dodgers, the whole hip flexer
thing has sort of taken a back to the It
looks like some type of seventies disco move almost like
(15:03):
a zoolander where you're putting two fingers in front of
your eyes, like whoa like a pulp fiction type of
move that is mocking in a fun way. Otani. When
they were in Japan, they saw that he did a
like a skincare ad for a decort light boast and
he pulls the product in front of his eyes like
(15:25):
he pulls it across his eyes. And that is now
the the rally cry and celebration of the Dodgers, as
if they needed more chemistry to bring them closer, just
to put a bow on.
Speaker 6 (15:36):
The Selek stuff. April third, nineteen ninety one, Selik appears
in a spring training game for the Tigers against the
reds Oh Wow. At one point hits a foul ball
that Chris Sabo tries to track down but it lands
in like the photographer well or whatever, but bounces outside
back onto the field of play. Glenn Braggs then picks
(15:58):
up the baseball and everybody he wants that foul ball.
Who wouldn't want a foul ball hit by Tom Selleck
that ends up striking out in the bad in the
bottom of the eighth inning. But he did appear at
a spring training game.
Speaker 1 (16:11):
How about thank you dB, I have seen some of
the highlights. What about I'm just throwing this out there,
but you remember Brendan Fraser. I'm sorry, Brendan Fraser in
The Scout nineteen ninety four. And did you mention your
favorite mister Destiny Rich. I know you're a big fan
of Jim Blushy.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
Great movie. I love that movie.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
As a kid, Mister Destiny Rich was a big friends
like nineteen ninety But there's only like five people I
know that love mister Destiny.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
I thought that was such a good movie. I rented
that movie as a kid a lot.
Speaker 1 (16:37):
That's why. Plus John love it's in that movie. It's
a one when you think of it's his friend Clip.
Here's why I want you to think of these fictional
characters too, because a lot of times when I think
about some of the weak ass movies we watched growing
up Rich and we loved them, a lot of times
they didn't have the rights to actual teams in uniforms,
so it was like generic Yankee guy.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
Yeah, talking about your friend's week Halloween costume.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Yeah, it was just the generic pinstripes with the blue hat.
They couldn't even represent the Yankees in the proper way.
So there was always that guy that stood out to you.
He was like the big bad guy on the on
the opposing team. So who comes to mind. We'll wrap
it up with your phone calls right now at eighty
seven to seven ninety nine on Fox.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
Josh in Ohio.
Speaker 1 (17:18):
We'll start with you as Tani looks like a movie star. Oh, Tani,
who's your favorite actor playing a baseball player?
Speaker 7 (17:27):
So it's it's my favorite because he plays the perfect
Chicago cub, washed up pitcher. Chet the rocket Stedman.
Speaker 8 (17:35):
Played by Gary Busey and Rookie of the Year Gary Busey.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Buttered Sausage, by the way, you know that's a fake clip,
that buttered sausage clip. I thought that was real. Why
don't you two ruin that for me? I know you
spot Yeah, you interviewed him and he is a whack
of dude. I mean everybody knows that he's a wacky dude.
Talk about butter sausage. That clip that's gone viral is
not a real clip.
Speaker 9 (17:55):
Right the way it was he's acting, or he's it's
it's an it's no, it's c g I, or it's
someone with like a deep fake like a filter. Really yeah,
oh mind, it's a comedian comedian that was on SNL,
but I thought.
Speaker 1 (18:08):
It was real when if you don't know what we're
talking about, there's a famous clip from a maybe a
year ago or so where it's Gary Busey and he's like, let's.
Speaker 9 (18:15):
Talk about buttert Sauces on some podcast or something, and
that completely.
Speaker 1 (18:19):
Not a real clip, over and over again that you
can't believe anything on the internet.
Speaker 2 (18:24):
Who else do we got? Bo in South Dakota? What's up?
Speaker 1 (18:26):
Bo hey bow?
Speaker 8 (18:28):
It was so I gotta say, Kenny Powers mc dude.
Speaker 1 (18:33):
I retract my answer. Kelly Lee could take a hike.
Kenny Powers has to be the winner. And you know what,
Rich and I not to brag Fox Sports Radio Nation,
but we've interviewed Danny McBride a few times and you
better believe that we both had him autograph of baseball
that says, Kenny Powers I give to my brother for Christmas?
Speaker 2 (18:51):
Did you really you gave that away?
Speaker 1 (18:54):
Gave that to my brother? Man, I'm gonna I'm gonna
hang that up my man keeping. I will say this
the best. I mean, it's a different conversation, but I
think maybe the best sidekick funny guy in TV in.
Speaker 2 (19:06):
The last decade might be Stevie from that show.
Speaker 1 (19:08):
Oh we love Stevie An That chemistry between Stevie and
Kenny Powers, it's unmatched. And I think that is the
number one answer because I absolutely loved it.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
I'm still waiting to rewatch. Say you're you're my Stevie?
You think so, Let's go to Montana, Dave all the
way down to my plump. What's that, buddy?
Speaker 7 (19:30):
One? Got a couple here? You mentioned Kurt Russell for starters.
He actually was a professional ball player. He played for
the Portland Mavericks. Yeah, back in the seventies.
Speaker 2 (19:39):
Dad on the team.
Speaker 7 (19:40):
Do you ever get achieve? Yeah? His dad bing Russell
on the team. If you ever get a chance to
see and I hope I can say this, The Battered
Bastards of Baseball.
Speaker 2 (19:47):
I love it.
Speaker 7 (19:48):
Excellent to documentary. You have not mentioned Chris Pratt Seattle
Boy Moneyball.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
Oh dude, that's a really good one. By the way,
two great answers. He's absolutely right about that documentary. So
when you're done on the White Lotus finale, The Battered
Bastards of whatever it's called, fantastic movie. Kurt. It's actually
a documentary about Kurt Russell and his dad and that
baseball team and how he played. And again, just a
great one. You know what, We'll take the rest of
(20:14):
your answers next, we'll wrap this up. We got other
things to move on to. But uh Ohtani in the

Speaker 1 (22:55):
Sports Radio's YouTube page if you want to catch up
on the other eighty six episode. Again, over promised, Sweeping
the Nation I'm Steve Cavino, that is Rich Davis, and
I was just watching the footage of Trump with Sho
Hao Tani, and, like I said, politics aside, let's be
adults for a second.
Speaker 2 (23:13):
Trump and Otani.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
Oh, show hey Otani watching the mutual respect.
Speaker 1 (23:22):
You know, and we've seen Trump doesn't necessarily respect everybody.
Seeing the mutual respect between him and show Heotani in
that moment, it's actually heartwarming and nice.
Speaker 2 (23:31):
It really is.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
It's so nice to see because you can't deny the superstar.
Speaker 5 (23:36):
He went out of his way though, to let him
take extra photos too.
Speaker 2 (23:40):
Did you see that he's like and now stand by
the declaration of Independence?
Speaker 9 (23:44):
Don't it, don't steal it, don't pick a gray player
and a great person.
Speaker 1 (23:53):
Really was it was about he's a great human, but
show me very respectful. The whole thing was very nice.
And based on that, based on the fact that Trump
said he looks like a movie star and the fact
that today's the anniversary of Sandlot and Major Lee. Oh,
that's why the market bounce back a little today.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
The market bounce back.
Speaker 1 (24:10):
We asked you the coolest fictional baseball player, and we're
gonna wrap it up with your phone calls real quick.
I'm sticking with my answer. I said Kelly Lee for fun,
but as a kid, I did think he was a badass.
That's from Bad News Bears. I do lean Benny the
Jet Rodriguez. I think that's a cool answer on the anniversary.
But let's wrap it up with these three. Did you
not change the Kenny Powers? That was someone else's answer.
(24:30):
It was a great answer.
Speaker 5 (24:31):
I'm silling, Yeah, before we get to the lines here,
Rich two people couldn't hold Kathleen and Vermont said, don't
forget about the ladies. How about Gina Davis and she was.
Speaker 2 (24:41):
Great based Dottie.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Yeah, bas that was still based on real people. I
love the depiction, like I said, kit Keller her sister Yeah,
played by Lori Petty. They both sold it well. Lori Petty,
in my opinion, best known for point Break.
Speaker 5 (24:56):
And then Bruno Madonna said, yeah, Madonna did good in them,
you know. In Brooklyn said, as far as major league goes,
Wesley Snipe sold it for him running on the bass
pass like Ricky Henderson.
Speaker 1 (25:06):
Surprise, it took that long for someone say Willie May's.
Speaker 5 (25:08):
Hay right and then and then uh, Wesley also played
a baseball player in that movie The Fan.
Speaker 2 (25:15):
Yeah, I was creepy. That was a good movie.
Speaker 1 (25:16):
That was a good I'm gonna stick though with the
aging Jake Tail and Jake Taylor. Tom berenger Ato was great.
And of course the easy answer is Charlie Sheen or
I mean, God goes on and on in that movie,
because you could say Pedro Serrano like you said, Dennis
Hayes Birth Haysburg, Hasburg. Are you Matt so Cal?
Speaker 2 (25:34):
What's up?
Speaker 1 (25:34):
Bro Yo?
Speaker 7 (25:36):
Colbino and Rich Natural Content back by since orbs. It's
always good to talk to you, guys.
Speaker 8 (25:43):
I got real quick. It's softball. But Al Bundy could.
Speaker 1 (25:50):
I love that clip. I don't know how famous that
clip is, but when there's someone watching him, like that's
Al Bundy and he's like shagging flies. Yeah, he's like
he scored four touchdowns in one game. You see Al
bun he snagging flies in the field special episode or something,
the cliff floating around. Yeah, I've seen it on social media,
but I don't necessarily remember that episode. That's Al Bundy.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
Gary in Florida, what's up?
Speaker 8 (26:10):
Gare Hey, guys, thanks for taking my call.
Speaker 7 (26:14):
It's a little bit under the radar.
Speaker 8 (26:15):
But how about Brian Keith playing Jack Parkman in Major
League two? Because you're asking for the coolest fictional baseball player.
Didn't have many scenes in the movie. That was very,
very cool the way he played like the obnoxious, arrogant
pre agent coming in and I thought that was great.
And then one quick thing, Jack Herohley wrote wrote to
Harley because remember in the scene later when they're in
the in the ballet studio chasing Jada O'Neil down they
(26:37):
won and got in the playoff. He says, uh to
the to the hot like twenty five year old woman,
Harley Davison. Did that turn you on?
Speaker 1 (26:44):
That?
Speaker 4 (26:45):
Harley?
Speaker 1 (26:45):
But he does roll up in a mopad on one
scene when he rides up to the field either way
Kelly the edge hold on he mentioned Jack Parkman. Do
I remember the fun fact that Bob Buker drops in
Major League about Parkman? What does he saying about Hi,
Jack Parkman? Once through? It is no, wait, wrong guy.
I'm thinking of the wrong guy who wants through his
(27:06):
own son at a father son game. I remember that
the reliever that came in. Of course, I remember the
line Jack Parker was the powerhead of damn it. I
remember Jack Parkman. I just looked him out for sure.
Wrapping up one more phone call eight seven seven ninety nine,
l Fox, we have other things to get to.
Speaker 2 (27:21):
Ron and Rochester. What's up aout?
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Hey? Ron?
Speaker 10 (27:24):
Hey you guys. Yeah, so Charlie she could actually throw
in the uper eighties. He was a real pitcher. Yeah,
and Tom Seal had a basketball scholarship. And you know,
George Bush Senior played first base at Yale. John Wayne
played football at Ohio State. But in the movies, Zach
Effron is swing in the second movie what's it called
High School Musical, He's got a really good swing. It's
(27:47):
like it's got a really nice swing. And that's that's
what I really liked. Was like pretty impressive. And Ton,
you know, Kevin Coston swing is pretty good too, But
check out Zach Effron swinger was really good.
Speaker 1 (27:58):
You know, I never heard that, but I have to
look it up. Zac Efron so he could swing the
bat too. It was Duke, by the way, who I
don't know, is I keV? Is it Duke someone that
threw his own kid in the father Son game? All
I'm getting his Duke? But hey, great answers. Everybody, thanks
for playing along. Figured it was the anniversary of Major
League Coming Out in Theaters nineteen eighty nine and Sandlott
(28:18):
ninety three, both on the same day and also in
the same day that President Trump honored cho Hee Otanian.
And it seems like the entire team, in the entire
city of la and the entire sport of baseball celebrating Otani.
Speaker 2 (28:31):
Like we said, he's celebrating right now, the Detroit Tigers.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
They beat you Yankees. I see that celebration. Homefield advantage
is freezing there, snowing Detroit. His sun came out finally,
Shoeotani to wrap up the story again. His celebration has
gone viral with the Dodgers. His makeup, closing of the eyes,
sort of celebrate dance celebration based on his commercial is
(28:54):
the new Rage and they're selling T shirts and everything.
It's a commercial he did for the court Light bost
So Home. He's the spokesman in Japan and they all
saw it. By the way, Danny G speaking of random
Dodger stories, you gotta look this one up. Don't know
if it's true because I saw it on social media.
Key k Hernandez was wearing like an X rated hat
of sorts, and people zoomed in on it. Oh yeah,
(29:16):
And now he's like backtrack and saying, hey, I feel
a little disrespected that they photo shot my hat. But
really the hat he was wearing getting onto the plane
was something X rated yet hilarious all at the same time.
Speaker 2 (29:28):
I don't know if you saw that. I'll have to
check that. Check that out.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
And by the way, I thought Dan Bayer had a
great line on It was a Thursday show last week.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
We were talking about ken o'tani.
Speaker 1 (29:36):
Do anything wrong, he said interpreters, Yeah, that's it, because
I feel like everything else, the way he gives a
little nod to every manager out of respect, the way
he only he plays stain on his on his resume,
and you know what, it's his not even his fault. Yeah,
And he plays with a passion, he plays with a
childlike fun. He's a winner. He's respectful even in a circumstances.
(29:57):
Who knows if he agrees or disagrees with Donald Trump's politics.
He went to the White House and was a man
of respect like everythingday he would probably get some backlash
from his countryman. No or he was risking that oh, no,
Tani and they came up to with a tiff deal today.
Speaker 5 (30:17):
How about Yamamoto, you guys see him in the White House.
He did not look as he looks like he's being
held prisoner.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
Yeah, hostage. You have to imagine. It was a risk
there and it was a great encounter. It's nice to
see and he's a superstar. We talked about that last week.
Speaker 2 (30:32):
Hey, listen, we.
Speaker 1 (30:34):
All know that Dennis Robin almost you know, has the
ability to stop wars, right, so how do we know
that Trump has a crush on Atani and therefore, hey.
Speaker 2 (30:44):
Japan tariffs a little lower maybe yeah, they cut a brake.
Speaker 1 (30:48):
So anyways, thank you guys. We have to talk about
airplane dos and don'ts. There's a story, and we're going
to talk stadium dous and don'ts plus last one standing.
The game has sweep in the nation with it do
and don't The difference between confidence and cocking is lots
to get to.
Speaker 2 (31:04):
But Dan Byer with an update. First, what up dB,
you guys touched on it.
Speaker 6 (31:08):
Tigers beat the Yankees today six to two. Andy abanias
a three run shot for the Tigers, Aaron Judge and
the losing effort did have an RBI, so that puts
his league leading. I should say yeah, major league leading,
eighteenth RBI for Aaron Judge. Both the Yankees and Tigers
sitting there at six and four. Tonight, the national champion
(31:30):
and men's college basketball will be Crown Florida and Houston
will play in San Antonio tip off eight fifty Eastern
Time Women's Top twenty five. The final poll of the
season is out. No surprise, Yukon wins the national championship yesterday.
They finish at number one South Carolina. The runner up
is at two. UCLA Texas and USC round out the
top five. The Jacksonville Jaguars have exercise the fifth year
(31:51):
option on the contract of defensive end Travon Walker. Walker
was the first overall pick in the twenty twenty two
NFL Draft. Today's practice round at the Masters washed out
because of rain. Got to play till about it's eleven
thirty this morning, and then it was called off for
the day. Master's chairman Fred Ridley announced that a partnership
with Tiger Woods and the TGR Foundation, we'll see a
(32:13):
learning center built in the Augusta area, plus a nine
hole par three course will be built to the next
to the renovated Augusta Municipal golf Course. And finally, guys,
a couple of notes from the NBA Trail Blazers gave
GM Joe Croner a multi year contract extension. He'd say
bam ad a bio questionable for tomorrow's game against the
Sixers because of a back injury. John Moran expected to
(32:33):
play tomorrow for the Grizzlies.
Speaker 2 (32:35):
Guyspect thank you, Katy B. By the way, Rich appreciate it.
Speaker 1 (32:39):
dB. I'm looking up Kelly Leak from The Bad News
Bears just because our coller said he drove a Harley
and because he played a twelve year old in the movie.
Maybe I just always assumed it was a mopet he
was driving. He really is driving a Harley and smoking cigarettes.
So again, your favorite fictional say kid in the seventies
or eighties, the right, yes, smoking, he was smoking cigarettes
on the team. I always thought that was hilarious. I
(33:01):
thought he was a badass. That Keith Rnandez, Yeah, exactly.
So you could leave your answer at Covino and Ridge
for the coolest fictional baseball players. But we have other
things to get to, uh, like this there was a
hilarious story and it has to do with Michelle Williams, remember,
formerly of Destiny's Child. She has a story from a
flight and it's one of those like don't we know
(33:22):
not to do this on a plane. It has to
do with someone's feet. So we're gonna put our own
little twist on it. Stadium and sports dudes and don'ts
will explain. We'll do that coming up. Plus Baker Mayfield
being compared to Shador Sanders and it has to do
with confidence or cockiness.
Speaker 2 (33:40):
All that coming up right here.
Speaker 1 (33:41):
Fox Sports Radio, Cavino and Rich, Big weekend for Lenny
Kravitz's bff, Jason Momoa, the star of Minecraft with Jack Black.
It's crazy how Kravitz and Momoa are like bff and
they were both married to Lisa Bonet bro sesty goal.
I guess life goals to somehow make it work with
(34:04):
your blended extended family a little much for me, though,
Cavino and.
Speaker 2 (34:08):
Rich, you're not working on that with your xos. I'm
good on that.
Speaker 1 (34:11):
Fox Sports Radio eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. Hey,
for the record, you're the one that brought up your
ex wife today, not me. That is true for once.
I hope you had a Minecraft Vlad Junior sort of weekend.
And I heard that Dan Patrick clip right there, and
I was telling Rich the same thing earlier, That whole
long term, fourteen to fifteen year deal thing is for
(34:32):
the birds. Talk to me in ten years when he's
playing like an old Albert Poolhols, like his feet hurt,
you know what I mean, Like, get.
Speaker 2 (34:38):
Out of here with that.
Speaker 1 (34:39):
I know you don't care because it's not your money,
but you're gonna care when that dude is a liability
and he's old and overweight. Well, urso is not my
money for me as a Mets fan, Sodo, you can say,
if you're a Blue Jays fan, slattle.
Speaker 2 (34:49):
For fifteen years.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
But he looks six months pregnant in the offseason this year.
So when he's looking, when he's looking like Bartolo Cologne
in five years, tell me if that's a good deal.
Speaker 5 (34:58):
But cove Arnthi's teams just hoping and banking on the
fact that hopefully they'll get one World Series or two
titles absolutely and then it pays for itself. That's what
they're hoping. Who's a pipe dream? I'm a Mets fan
in my forties one World Series when I was a
school boy. My daughter is like, Dad, have the Mets
ever won the championship? I told yeah, but that was
your right. If the Mets get one, they're big dreaming bro.
(35:21):
Though in fifteen years, they're like, we got to get
two in fifteen right.
Speaker 1 (35:24):
If they get one, I'd be the happiest little boy.
I'd be like the happier than Pinocchio. Yeah, well, guess
what I would The Dodgers have show hey Danny, so until.
Speaker 2 (35:33):
He's already given him one.
Speaker 4 (35:34):
Yes, show heyhy till he's on.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
The team the Mets.
Speaker 1 (35:37):
Yeah. Go, I'm just saying I don't care. It's not
my money. There's no salary cap in baseball.
Speaker 7 (35:43):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (35:43):
Still stuck with that guy for fifteen years, and now
the Blue Jays are stuck with a twenty six year
old lad junior. But he's gonna be forty by the
end of that contract. Again, I don't worry about what listen. Yeah,
but it's detrimental to the team in the future. The
Cardinals asked the Yankees who held on to Jeter. I,
giving as much as I love Jeter, that did hold
(36:05):
them back from moving forward because they were they were
so tied into that contracts. As much as Kobe Bryant
is loved out here an listen, and not only was
he one of the greatest. When he passed away in
such tragic nature, his legacy only grew right. But there
was a time where a lot of Lakers fans they
forget because they think of Kobe only fondly. Now, there
(36:25):
was a time where there were Lakers fans that thought
the end of his contract was holding the organization well.
Speaker 5 (36:30):
And he didn't ask for it. Jeanie Bus gifted that
to him. It was like her version of a gold
watch to him.
Speaker 1 (36:35):
And you know, congrats to them too for making that happen.
I think it's important to keep those legacies alive with
one team. I think that's nice. But that's a very
long time, guys, fifteen years. Fourteen years, give me a break.
Ever Root in the ever Root analogy. But it's on
the long it's along the lines of what you and
Dan Patrick agree on.
Speaker 2 (36:53):
Yeah, these long contracts, it they're too long. It's like
it's like it's like marrying.
Speaker 1 (37:00):
A swimsuit model in her prime and you know she
has bad eating habits and you're like, sounds rude, but
like that's like so rude, but you know what I mean?
Or like Janett like you gosh, I should I just
stop this one, digging yourself deeper into he's losing his
mind and we're reaping all the benefits. What you're really
(37:22):
trying to say, what Cavino's saying, and with Dan Patrick
saying without saying it, is you're just hoping that by
signing Sodo, who you said is gonna be Bartolo Cologne
in ten years. So we aren't you saying the same thing?
And you know, let's be honest, what does some mom
look like a slugger, but a thicker slugger like a
Vladdie junior. You're saying good luck when they're forty. What
(37:43):
you're really saying is like you married the pain in
the ass girl who doesn't work out. She's just like young,
so it's like, what are you gonna get when she's older?
Speaker 2 (37:51):
That's all rude. Maybe I'll just shut up.
Speaker 1 (37:53):
Now how many years I'm looking this up? Because this
is crazy? You want to feel old for a second?
Do you know Prince Fielder's son is already like on
the draft market?
Speaker 2 (38:06):
Wait the third one?
Speaker 1 (38:07):
The Prince Fielder, his son, his son. So I'm saying,
Prince Fielder was a big dude and he was a
stellar player. Right, retired with the same amount of home
runs as his dad, Cecil I think three zero nine
or something like that, over three hundred home runs. Isn't
the fun fact that they have the same number of
career home runs? Yeah, Prince played twelve seasons in the
(38:29):
big leagues, Grand opening, Grand closing. You're gonna tell me
Vlad Junior, who's weighing in at a good two sixty
probably right now, is gonna last fourteen years? I don't know.
Speaker 2 (38:41):
I hope.
Speaker 1 (38:41):
So, Look, it's a win for the player, but for
the organization, who I don't care about. But for the fans,
you're stuck with that guy. Look, I'm coming from the
fan perspective. There's pros and cons to it. Hey, props
to the player getting you know, getting his money. Looky,
Stevie boy, you know what they're everyone's trying to do,
and the reality is that everyone's trying to do in
(39:02):
La Rams And what did the Rams do? A lot
of teams have tried this, but the Rams successfully went
all in. Remember they went all in and they won
a Super Bowl and listen, they're back sooner than people
thought now looking competitive. They got Pooka and you know,
Stafford's still there. But there was a point where if
you're a Rams fan, you had to say, we went
all in won a Super Bowl. Good.
Speaker 2 (39:24):
I don't care if we sort of sting for.
Speaker 1 (39:26):
A little while. We did it.
Speaker 2 (39:28):
We did it.
Speaker 1 (39:29):
And if you tell me the Mets won a World
Series in the next let's say five years, because Soto,
Lindor and Alonso in their prime won one, I don't
care if they don't want another one for twenty years.
I've been waiting since I was pee in my bed.
I was a little boy when the Mets won in
eighty six.
Speaker 2 (39:46):
Give me one. I don't care if Soto's.
Speaker 1 (39:48):
Is slug when he's thirty five, forty years old, doesn't matter.
I mean, there's a few ways to look at it.
I appreciate that, and I respect that. It just seems
like such a long time. I agree, a fourteen fifteen years,
But then again, we're not seeing a lot of players
stay with one team. So again, I don't want to
talk out of both sides of my mouth, because I do,
like the lawyer with one team and the loyalty. We
(40:08):
rarely see that in today's world. Let me give you
an anelogen man.
Speaker 2 (40:11):
That's a long, long contract to give somebody.
Speaker 1 (40:13):
Let me give you an analogy in our world, would
it be weird to give a radio or TV personality
or podcast or a long deal like give you know,
you know what you're getting with Soto, We know the
Fox sells what they're getting with Kvin On Richard, Rob
Park or this person. Is there a length where you're like,
I don't know if they'll be funny, then I don't
know if they'll be entertaining. Then there's contract extensions that
(40:33):
only go so far. In media, you don't know. You
don't know if this personality is going to be as
good in ten years. They do it in every industry,
So I get what you're saying. It's for firsteen years
is a long time to assume that they'll be as
good as what they do then. But can you grass
you want to sign the best artist to a twenty
year music deal? No way though, not hating, just stating
(40:55):
not more.
