Speaker 1 (02:38):
Oh tell Yeah, it's a party. You're there.

Speaker 2 (02:39):
We got it there.

Speaker 1 (02:40):
We're kidnapping Dan Bayern bringing him. It's gonna be a
good time. So the reason I brought it up was
also to remind you guys that were having a big
party in Vegas and you're all invited. Some guy on Facebook,
he goes, respectfully, I loved you guys for years, but
this event should have been planned last year. It's three

(03:02):
and a half months away and I have anxiety not
knowing exact details. And I responded to this guy, uh oh,
who plans a year plus in advance. Come on, do
you know what you're doing in twenty twenty six when
you got kids and events and work and business trips
and all the things you do, you know, plans for
mid twenty twenty six right now?

Speaker 2 (03:22):
And then I went to press send that I couldn't.

Speaker 4 (03:23):
Also, my favorite, my favorite me when you go to
the dentist office and you walk up after the appointment
and they're like, all right, let's book your next appointment,
and you're like, yeah, I know what I'm gonna be doing.

Speaker 1 (03:33):
On a Tuesday at two thirty months.

Speaker 2 (03:35):
But that's so funny. You would say it tooth thirty,
that's so funny.

Speaker 1 (03:38):
Yeah, tooth thirty, tooth thirty, tooth thirty, tooth thirty, tooth thirty.
I went for a dental cleaning a couple of weeks ago,
and I had that same dumb It's I'm sure some
stand up comics done it before, but it is ridiculous
where they plan your six month cleaning, like, how's Wednesday,
August twentieth, and you're like, Quesay, how on earth do

(03:59):
you think.

Speaker 2 (03:59):
I know what I'm doing. You'll you have to base
your whole day around it.

Speaker 3 (04:03):
Then you were like, you'll get a you'll get like
a week's notice, Uh it's coming up. And then you're like, oh, yeah,
that's my tooth cleaning, everything else off the schedule.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
What I do is I go, yeah, yeah, sure, and
then you know the week's leading up, you make the
adjustment like.

Speaker 2 (04:16):
Yeah, I can't do it. How about the day before?

Speaker 3 (04:17):
Like it's no, I think I scheduled a doctor's appointment
like eight months in advance, and then when finally arrived,
I was like, oh, yeah, that I'm fine.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
I don't need to go.

Speaker 2 (04:26):
By the way, that's a big problem.

Speaker 1 (04:27):
You go to you have a issue, you go to
the doctor, and everything's like months months, months, where we can.

Speaker 3 (04:32):
See you in a March of twenty twenty seven. It's ridiculous.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
Anyway, one last thought, could you know before we move
on to basketball, I know we were talking about Rodney
Pete interfering with Max Munsey. Yeah, but he didn't. I
want to make that very clear. Yes, it's laughable that
he had a baseball glove with him. It all came
right to him. It went right to him. And months eaten.
He missed it. Months he missed it regardless. You look
at these stacking of gloves. Yeah, she was going to

(04:58):
get to in mid week Major. You look at the
stacking of gloves.

Speaker 4 (05:00):
Munsey is over Pete, so it went pretty much went
through his glove, Pete's glove.

Speaker 2 (05:06):
Yeah, but not only that. This is the guy that
this I think.

Speaker 5 (05:09):
But I think it's because Max Muntsey has heard Rodney
Pete talk Dodgers on the radios. Why he gave him
a dirty look.

Speaker 1 (05:15):
I think the funnier story is what Cavino said, which is,
here's a guy that evaded the biggest, baddest men in
the NFL. This guy's scrambled around the pocket avoiding monsters
try to sack him and kill him, and he brings
a glove to baseball game. Yeah, what was that conversation like?
And by the way, he's in Tokyo. Did he pack

(05:36):
it with him? Honey? Do you have your glove? Was
it carry on or was it a check bag? Did
he bring that like as his one personal item on
the plane?

Speaker 2 (05:46):
Get away with that?

Speaker 1 (05:49):
His vegless lightly overweight so he put on his hand
for the flight.

Speaker 5 (05:52):
Did he have snacks and zip bloc bags in the glove.

Speaker 1 (05:56):
I'm honestly guessing maybe they like provided him one or something.

Speaker 4 (06:00):
Dude.

Speaker 1 (06:00):
The funniest thing is when you think about that, you're right.
It's not a game at Dodger Stadium twenty minutes away.
He went to Japan, and he's like, packed the shoes. Oh,
we packed my you know, some Jim shorts, some pants
and Dodger shirt. Oh yeah, my glove. Honey, that's wild,
don't you think? Like Holly Robinson, Pete stopped him at
one point, like, honey, you don't need that, and he's like, yes,

(06:22):
I do.

Speaker 2 (06:22):
He's like, no, you don't, I do. Got to protect
your face.

Speaker 1 (06:25):
Yeah, And as it turns out, he does explain that
he was trying to protect her. Take a listen.

Speaker 6 (06:30):
I didn't know such a thing could goes so viral
so quick.

Speaker 1 (06:34):
It was. It was crazy.

Speaker 6 (06:36):
I was thinking of protecting my wife, Holly, That's all
I was thinking about, and didn't really take a peek
at Max coming and how close he was that we
were sticking sitting in the second row. It started curving back.

Speaker 1 (06:48):
Man.

Speaker 6 (06:49):
The only thing I could think about is Okay, I
can't I can't.

Speaker 1 (06:51):
Let that ball hit her or me in the head,
So let me try to reach out and catch it.

Speaker 6 (06:56):
Oh, and then I saw his face once I caught,
I was like, oh.

Speaker 1 (07:02):
Man, he was not happy.

Speaker 6 (07:04):
I mean, he looked at me like I was Bartman
from back in the day with the Cubs. He looked
at me like he wanted blood.

Speaker 1 (07:09):
And and we pointed out it's usually the reaction of
the player, whether it's Moises ruining Steve Bartman's.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
Life or he also says Bartman like it's part Simon.

Speaker 3 (07:18):
Yes, we were talking yesterday Elton John versus Tom Tommy John.
So it's like bart Man, Bartman, Cubs, art Man, the Simpsons.

Speaker 2 (07:27):
It's like Spider Man and Speederman if he was Jewish.

Speaker 4 (07:29):
There you go, by the way, I'm brooding this fan.
I don't see Holly Robinson Pete. Holley Robinson Pete is
behind him. He's reaching forward and forward, so he's reaching
like at an angle completely away, for.

Speaker 2 (07:42):
It's nowhere near. He just reached down to grab this ball.

Speaker 1 (07:48):
But I don't think he did nothing wrong except for
bringing that guy back.

Speaker 2 (07:51):
To the left.

Speaker 1 (07:52):
Yes, Keith and Nan is a newman back into the left,
back into the.

Speaker 5 (07:56):
Sounds like she's just the fall guy for the story.

Speaker 1 (08:00):
Is Anny Trump just released the Uh yes, that spit ricocheted,
wasn't it? Uh? I forget it actually was roder mcdell. Yeah,
so it was Roderick Dell. It was Roger mcdell. All right, Well, hey,
uh Rodney Pete a fellow Fox Sports radio guy. Pretty

(08:21):
cool moment that he goes to Japan for our local
five seventy and involves himself in a funny moment.

Speaker 2 (08:27):
I guess had that very viral moment.

Speaker 1 (08:28):
Yeah, Like what's the chances right, mm hmm, like the
chances that won in like sixty five.

Speaker 5 (08:34):
Thousands, Like when the two of you goofs were at
the home run Derby.

Speaker 1 (08:38):
Oh man, you know what. I don't want to give
people homework assignments, but when you get home, if you
search Covino and Rich c ov I know on YouTube
home Run Derby, just search home on Derby. Our mission
for years, Danny g was just to get on TV.
So we would do the Bushwhacker dance every time a
home run came in our vicinity. We were on the

(09:00):
e s. We were on TV like like five six
years in a row doing that. The funniest part is
we were We actually had a show on ESPN for years,
but that was more fun.

Speaker 2 (09:08):
Yeah, we tried to get on TV.

Speaker 5 (09:11):
Yeah you guys like the toy Monkey or Also there's
a moment that lives in infamy where Rich Davis is
on live TV crying at the end of a Mets game.

Speaker 1 (09:21):
It's all on YouTube. Now spot our video guy. There's
also a great video spot missing a home run that
goes off his hand. I would have fallen into the outfield.

Speaker 2 (09:35):
You would have fallen into the bullpen, but it would
have been worth it. What did the ball goes right
off his hand? Than you see?

Speaker 5 (09:40):
Spockle should have brought should have should have packed a
glove with you?

Speaker 1 (09:46):
Spot I have one?

Speaker 2 (09:47):
Now, did I?

Speaker 1 (09:47):
Yeah?

Speaker 4 (09:47):
I can?

Speaker 1 (09:48):
Since this is a d D radios at its finest,
let me bring up one last point about foul balls,
and you know we're busting the chops of one Rodney
Pete for bringing a glove to Japan were I had
a home run derby multiple times. There was one year
where they gave out gloves in the field and that's
why I'm thinking maybe they provided him one or like

(10:10):
the little store. I still you'd have to break it in.
I still have that's very nice. I still have that
broken in. Like it looked like generic Wilson glove they
gave out at the.

Speaker 2 (10:19):
Home run derby.

Speaker 1 (10:20):
But we were at a derby once and this is
just a quick little story. There was a guy maybe
five rows ahead of us, Albert Poolholtz, hit a line
drive home run that the exit velocity was one hundred
and fourteen miles. Yeah, it was like one of those
rock It was one of like John Carlos Stanton, Like

(10:40):
the line drive just went right out of the park. Yeah,
we saw the ball. You heard it sizzling as I
heard flying by.

Speaker 2 (10:46):
You heard the ball like pops.

Speaker 1 (10:50):
This guy in the face, we saw the blood start
coming out of his mouth and nose, and he's trying
to tell his bros like.

Speaker 2 (10:59):
Young good, oh good.

Speaker 1 (11:01):
This remember that famous video of Fabio getting hit in
the face by a bird on a roller coaster. I
love that. It is blood everywhere. I love it. That's
what we saw. That's what happened to this guy's face.
And he really was he was trying to say, I'm good.
It was so bad, It was so sad, so weird.
Just can't believe it's a bood, but hey, maybe that
is good that Rodney Pete was trying to protect people

(11:22):
in the stand. So that's the story. You'll be seeing
it if you haven't already throughout the day because again
the Dodgers played in Tokyo again with a win over
the Cubs earlier today. Now let's turn our attention to
the NBA just for a second, because I know, Danny
G You're locked in all the time, and it's hard
not to be locked in. Now the football's over and

(11:44):
baseball hasn't really begun yet. The NBA is really bringing
it and your Lakers are fun to watch.

Speaker 5 (11:52):
Yeah, a little injured lately, but they're getting they're starting
to get healthy.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
They got cold for a second, but turned it right
around again.

Speaker 5 (11:58):
Well yeah, they were missing not only Lebron but Luca Ruey,
who's a starter, and then another starter in Jackson Hayes.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
There's a headline today did Luca did the trade actually
make the Lakers defense better? Because there's speculation on man,
they're really gelling defensively that you would have thought would
have been their weakness without ad who, by the way,
is golfing. I don't know how you feel about that. Optically,
it looks kind of bad, I think, But I say, no,
it looks like he's making some progress. He must be

(12:29):
feeling better because he's out there in Texas golfing.

Speaker 2 (12:32):
I don't know, I don't know.

Speaker 1 (12:32):
I use that story of back in the day when
You'll win a cesspitis. They were so desperate to get
him back in the lineup, and it's like, yeah, he
can't play, and then you see Cesspeitus golfing a couple
of days in a row.

Speaker 2 (12:43):
It's like, come on, dude, you're swinging a golf call.

Speaker 1 (12:45):
Yeah. I think it's a bad look, but I do
think that it has made the defense better, but for
simple reasons because I think they relied so much on
AD that it didn't force them to step up, and
now without AD, it forces people to step up. It's
like rich when we travel as a team right as
a as a show, A lot of times Spotty likes

(13:05):
to lead the way and I just follow spot because
he walks so fast and I'm just following his lead.
Or he's the guy that calls the uber, or he's
the guy I know's not around guess what I'm forrest,
Or someone else is forced to step up or we
collectively take it on together. No, because guess Wes, spot
if you weren't there, what do you think, we don't
know where to go and what to do.

Speaker 5 (13:24):
No, see that's what he likes to think. Two trips
in a row, Spotty. We had to figure it out.

Speaker 2 (13:29):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (13:30):
So in my analogy here is you take a D
out of the defense. Well, now Lebron and Austin Reeves
and Luca everyone's like, well, I guess we got to
step up, and therefore they're playing better defense instead of
relying just on one guy.

Speaker 5 (13:43):
Reeves and Dalton connect have brought the energy to to
the defensive side of the ball with those injuries.

Speaker 1 (13:48):
Just from that perspective and had analogy, doesn't that make
a lot of sense. It's like, hey, you're losing your
best guy, the best defensive player, but it forces everyone
else to step up because they have no other choice.
So now they're on guard. Now they're playing because they're
not just waiting for ad to stop the charge. So
I think that's really what's happening here. And you're also
seeing like Luca make everybody a better player, and for

(14:09):
some reason, Austin Reeves is getting more shine than anybody
as a result of it. Was just the other day
that Lucas said, how did this guy go undrafted? And listen,
I roll my eyes and hate when any broadcaster crutches
on racial stuff. I just feel like it's unnecessary, Like
it's unnecessary conversation where you're not want to talk about

(14:31):
Ryan Clark right now.

Speaker 6 (14:32):
Not.

Speaker 1 (14:33):
But my thought is there's got to be a party
if you want to be honest with yourself that because
Austin Reeves is sort of a goofy white guy, the
assumption is that you're sort of surprised that, oh, he
is this good.

Speaker 2 (14:48):
It's the truth.

Speaker 1 (14:50):
I do agree with you. You could say that he's
just unassuming, right, you would never look at him and
think he's gonna be as good as he is. Yeah,
and race probably is a part of that. Part of
what you're saying is unassuming is because he's light, dude.
That's part of it, part of it, part of it.
I can't deny that. It's like, no, it's it's like
fair assessment. You know, there are stereotypes that are that

(15:12):
are good and bad. Right, Like I told you guys
a story where I played co ed softball on time
and some girl brought her boyfriend along and she's like,
do we need an extra guy on the team. And
this guy looked like DK Metcalf. It was a ripped,
like six foot four black dude that looked like he
came straight.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
From the gym.

Speaker 1 (15:30):
And were like, yeah, come on, dude, this is the
worst ballplayer I'd ever played with. But stereotypically, I looked
at him and I said, come on, man, you assumed
he was gonna be great. Yeah, so I think sometimes
and that was the Caruso treatment. When it's a balding
dude with a bandana with a you know, a headband on,
you're like this guy. You know, Jeremy Lynn got that

(15:50):
treatment back in the day because unless you're seven foot yao,
Ming Asian Asian community doesn't get a lot of love
in the NBA. It makes it more of a fun
Story's a story, so it's not it's and by the way,
hold on, you brought up Cruso. I actually texted this
to our group text the other day. It's so funny
because when you think of Austin Reeves. I remember there

(16:11):
was a point in time I remember talking to Danny
about it too, like, man, it sucks. You know, the
Lakers lost carus So, I thought he would be the guy,
and Danny J was like, no, but Reeves is pretty good.
I was like, yeah, well, white guy for white guy
at Caruso was like proven already. I thought he was good.
And you think of how much, like how much he's
grown and evolved since then as a player, Like he's

(16:33):
so great, man, and it's so wild to see he
might be. And I'm not the only guy saying this.
I can't take full credit, but if you watch basketball
right now, he might be the best number three guy
in the league right now, right now, and he brings it.

Speaker 2 (16:45):
He plays hard.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
I've heard a lot of people say that, So, like
I said, I can't take credit for that, but he
might be that guy, and he might be the difference
maker because of that come down the stretch. Yeah, you
know you said unassuming.

Speaker 5 (16:58):
I had to look up his stats because I do
remember him his last season in Oklahoma. He averaged eighteen
point three points that season, but unassuming beginning he started
at Wichita State for two seasons where he averaged like
six points or something like that. But the last two
years he was in the Big twelve for Oklahoma. He
averaged fifteen and a little over eighteen, so there was

(17:21):
reason for teams to look at him. But yeah, it
went undrafted.

Speaker 1 (17:24):
But that's kind of cool too, because people don't see
you coming. You know, it's a bit of an advantage
in that way too. And I bet you that lights
his fire a little bit. Well, enjoy the rest of
your NBA season. We got a couple weeks left and
Kevino and I were saying that we got to hit
a Lakers game, don't we Yes, you know, as we
get closer to the playoffs and the closer to Lebron's

(17:51):
ending of his career. I'm not saying this year, but
wouldn't you rather see him now than Yeah? Not the
change subject, but we were saying, how how many people
are like man?

Speaker 2 (18:00):
I wish it would have so Jordan.

Speaker 1 (18:01):
One left back.

Speaker 2 (18:02):
I've never seen Lebron as a Laker.

Speaker 1 (18:03):
You know how many times like Big Poppy or Jeet
or someone like man, I didn't go one last time
to see him and we're here in LA. That's the crime.
Plenty of opportunities over the next like year, and you know,
if he plays another year, like go see Lebron one
more time with your kids or something. I've never been
to a Lakers game, and that's that my weird confession,
never been to a Lakers game, So I'd love to go,

(18:24):

That's summit.

Speaker 1 (21:21):
We definitely madre.

Speaker 2 (21:23):
See it our score Midweek Major.

Speaker 1 (21:27):
Ah, that was a good one. Dan had to bring
it for March Madness.

Speaker 2 (21:38):
Nice the madness begins, dud go.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
All right, you hear the horns.

Speaker 5 (21:42):
You know you've made it to the middle of the
week before we hand things over to the number one
and only host to the segment. We like to roll
the two big red love dice in the Man Studio,
I just.

Speaker 2 (21:50):
Roll the six, all right, big money, big money.

Speaker 1 (21:53):
No means no ritual. A rich evan rich goes first
ya means rich gets first take.

Speaker 5 (22:03):
And now, ladies and gentlemen, the most famous person assigns
Judy Bloom from Scotch Plains New Jersey Spotty Boy.

Speaker 1 (22:10):
Hi, guys, hey spot how are you. Let's jump right in.

Speaker 4 (22:14):
So we spoke earlier this week about Cameron Brink getting
the ick, as she called it, from guys wanting to
make the La Sparks practice squad.

Speaker 1 (22:21):
Well, that's because the guys were commenting on social media
like she could back in.

Speaker 4 (22:27):
Well, after the interview with Brink went viral, the Sparks
are doing a little bit of damage control and hoping
to ease Brink's mind, clarifying that the mail players will
be rigorously vetted and all received background checks, so they're
not going to just be pulling dudes off social media.
The team has used the mal practice squad since the
team's inception in nineteen ninety seven. Other WNBA teams have

(22:48):
also followed suit teams. The team released the statement saying
that the team is committed to fostering a safe and
respectful environment for all our players and want to emphasize
that player safety remains our priority.

Speaker 2 (22:59):
Mid Week Major, I think it's listen.

Speaker 1 (23:02):
To be honest, it's mid but I'll say major because
I think it's funny that can't break. Had the uh,
you know, had the guts to say this because it
is true. There's a lot of creepy guys out there,
and you don't think there were some creeps that were like,
we could play with the NBWNBA women Like, there's definitely
creep So I think doing a little background check no
harm in that. I know a creep that's banned on

(23:24):
Facebook as we speak.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
Shut up.

Speaker 1 (23:26):
Got to my left and here was posting butt cracks.
I think it's a true story.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
He's a bandit. He's a bandit. I think it's a
mid story.

Speaker 1 (23:36):
Man. You know why, because this should be standard practice
no matter what. A background check, Yeah, do your job
before you hire somebody. How about you do a little
investigating on the Guy's not that hard.

Speaker 2 (23:48):
Do a Google search.

Speaker 1 (23:49):
It's a background check that's not asking a whole lot,
especially for professional level players. I think this should be
an industry standard no matter what you're doing. Well, when
they do like.

Speaker 4 (23:58):
Open tryouts, are you have to go through a background check?

Speaker 1 (24:02):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (24:02):
Can I give everyone a piece of advice?

Speaker 1 (24:03):
I think if you're going on a date with somebody,
you should do a background I have a great piece
of advice for everyone.

Speaker 2 (24:07):
This is it Rich does backcrack checks? Stop to buck
crack Mann. I have a great.

Speaker 1 (24:13):
Advice for everyone, especially women out there. When you're on
a date with a new guy, bring up traveling and
then so casually work into the conversation. Well, you know
when I travel, like, it's easy with TSA pre check.
If a guy has TSA pre check, that means he
has some.

Speaker 2 (24:29):
Level of screening.

Speaker 1 (24:30):
I mean, I know everything about someone before I go
on a first David. But what I'm saying is like
if the if the guy or girls like yeah, don't
have pre check, I might assume, like what you do?

Speaker 2 (24:38):
Wait a second, Danny G doesn't have TSA? Is he
an outlaw? Do you know what? You know?

Speaker 1 (24:43):
You know what?

Speaker 5 (24:44):
Though even recently I've done work for the school district
in my city, and you have to have FBI clearance.

Speaker 1 (24:50):
He also ever takes his hat off Danny j I
coach kids, as I point out every day, because it's
such a big part of my life. Now. I had
to go to a place and get the uh fingerprint.

Speaker 2 (24:59):
I had to get finger printed and the deal.

Speaker 1 (25:02):
Yeah. So I mean, if they're gonna do that for
coaching kids going through tsa pre check, maybe when.

Speaker 2 (25:07):
You play ball with professionals, what's wrong with that?

Speaker 6 (25:10):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (25:10):
I think it should be standard, all right.

Speaker 4 (25:12):
Heading over to the political landscape, politics aside, I gotta
say it, politics aside. Obviously several tensions between the US, Russia,
and Ukraine.

Speaker 1 (25:20):
Well, during a call.

Speaker 4 (25:21):
Working out a CEA, this is great, working out a
ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine. Apparently Trump and Putin had
time to discuss the future of men's ice hockey between
the two nations. So they were discussing the possibility of
the US and Russia.

Speaker 1 (25:36):
Battling it out on the ice Wow.

Speaker 4 (25:38):
The Kremlin announced the possibility of hockey games taking place
between the two countries on US soil, which would be interesting.
Despite Russia's ongoing ban from international competition. They're banned by
the Ice International Ice Hockey Federation through the next twenty
twenty six season, which pretty much prevents them from competing
in the Olympics, but having an exhibition between the two

(25:58):
countries might be a possible ability. Uh So we'll see,
maybe we'll get another miracle on ice between the two
countries coming up Midwa Cretor.

Speaker 2 (26:06):
This is major.

Speaker 1 (26:08):
This is the biggest battle between Russia and the US
since nineteen eighty five Christmas Day. There you go, Russia
Christmas Day.

Speaker 2 (26:17):
I remember Paulie was like Russia.

Speaker 1 (26:18):
Listen, you said, politics aside, But the reality is sports
bring people together. And if if somehow, some way, like
there's a ceasefire and there's good you know, if if
world peace could somehow be helped and orchestrated by hockey.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
And like, hey, let's let's let's sport.

Speaker 1 (26:38):
What about hot dog? Get how many how many times
has sports brought people together? If it could like cause
less tension, I'm all for it. I think it's a
great idea.

Speaker 5 (26:45):
And you saw what Russia did in the show Paradise, right, yeah, right.

Speaker 1 (26:53):
Nuclear missiles. It's like Rocky said on that famous day, Rich,
if I could change you could change we all could shade,
everybody could change. You know, I think you're right. If
this is the catalyst and if this is the great
equalizer to start some great conversation, it begins with sports

(27:13):
and hockey. It's great for hockey fans, is great for
it's great for the country. If sports is part of peace,
who can't get behind that's really it.

Speaker 4 (27:21):
Yeah, so apparently, I mean there's no surprise to the story.
But apparently we have Taylor Swift and I'll give it
a side and Rashie Rice to thank for Travis Kelcey
returning for another season. A source close to the Power
couple revealed that Swift didn't want Kelsey to retire after
their loss to the Eagles of this season. She said
she wanted him to go out on a high note.
Apparently they made this decision quote as a couple. Of course,

(27:45):
this comes from sources, So I don't know who these
sources are, but there's always a source during talks about
the couple's future. Secondment secrament sentiment echoed by teammate Rashie Rice,
who revealed earlier this week that he urged Kelsey not
to end his career with a loss, saying, you can't
go out like that. So regardless of the influence where
it came from. Kelsey will be back for another season.
Midwek or meets well, that's.

Speaker 2 (28:05):
Mid, I'll tell you why.

Speaker 1 (28:06):
That's Everyone ends their currental loss unless you're John Elway,
Peyton Manning. Are the few people that win and they're like,
that's it. I'm calling her today. Most people go out
on a loss. It's just that you're Tom Brady went
out on a loss. It happens, man. I just think
that unless you're Drone Betts and you go up to
Detroit and win for the Steelers and.

Speaker 2 (28:24):
Lets your cypress Hill, because we ain't going out like that.
We ain't going out like that. We're going out.

Speaker 1 (28:30):
I think it's a good sign that they are discussing
things as a couple, because we realize what happens when
you don't. Tom Verdi and Gizzelle make decisions of the couple.
You win together, you lose together, you make those big decisions,
you know.

Speaker 2 (28:43):
I think it's a good thing for them.

Speaker 1 (28:44):
I think it's a mid story. I think someone needs
to explain to Taylor Swift that there's not always a
happy ending. There's no guarantee in coming back. It could
be even worse. She's she's you know, if he wants
to have a great last year, go out in a
high note. He needs to follow the John Cena. Just
go out all heel, all heel, because think of all

(29:04):
the good press he's getting. Go heal. Just be a
badass in the last season because there's no guarantee you're winning, all.

Speaker 4 (29:11):
Right, Because you mentioned Tom Brady, this is the headline
I've seen across a few news sources. Apparently Tom Brady
casually dating again, and you know that, and he is
open to the idea of getting remarried. Who knows after
a split with Gerzelle. As we know, Giselle welcomed a
child with her jiu jitsu instructor that we weren't supposed
to worry about this a few months ago.

Speaker 1 (29:30):
So nowhord on who he's actually dating.

Speaker 4 (29:33):
But of course he's been licked to some several high
profile models in the past. But yeah, open to the
idea of remarrying. What do you think about that, Vieger Pature.

Speaker 1 (29:39):
I think it's I don't want to say mid, I'll
say major, just for the heck of it. Tom Brady,
like everyone else, I don't I'm not a fan of
giving up on love because it doesn't work out.

Speaker 2 (29:48):
But then again, you know my role three times, it's over.

Speaker 1 (29:51):
Like you you're allowed to get divorced once because maybe
you were young and something wrong happened, or second time
something happens.

Speaker 2 (29:58):
You can't get divorced three times.

Speaker 1 (29:59):
So if he gets me a third time, it's gotta
be poorever.

Speaker 2 (30:04):
So I'm all for it.

Speaker 1 (30:06):
Don't give up on love Tommy TV twelve And I
did see Tom Brady in a related story. He posted
a picture of like, like ten pairs of like kids
sneakers in his like four year areas. He's having sleepovers
with his kids, friends and everything. Like tom Brady's living
the dad life. He's really taken in post retirement. And
I think he's probably thinking, like, all right, what's next

(30:26):
for Tommy, you know, And it's love. I think it's
a matter of you don't want divorce to make you bitter,
you want it to make you better, and you know,
keep love out there as an option. But it's major
news for any potential woman out there. You know. It's
it's mid news for me, but major news for any
petnial wifey in the future. There conna be another future

(30:46):
missus Brady, you know, I'm me excited women there are
out there, good for them and you apparently all right.

Speaker 4 (30:52):
The Troy Trotan's men's basketball team out of Alabama, they're
a fourteen seed in this year's tournament, playing this Friday,
if you want to check it out. But they may
have waffle House to thank for being in the tournament
this year. So, the head coach, Scott Cross revealed that
when building a roster, he uses the iconic Southern restaurant
as a litmus test. He said, once asked a few
recruits if they want to eat at waffle House. They

(31:13):
shut it down immediately, and then they went to looked
it forward Nick Stampley, and he specifically requested a meal
at waffle House when he went to visit the college,
and since then he now asks all recruits if they
like waffle House. If the answers yes, they get signed.
If the answers know, they usually don't go on to
be on the teeth. Let me tell you so, he said.

(31:36):
Of course, it's not the only way they decide, but
a huge litmus test madeaker baby, I think this is major.

Speaker 1 (31:41):
I think Kovido, I hate these weird like one question
litmus tests.

Speaker 2 (31:44):
But failed one one time.

Speaker 1 (31:45):
That's one.

Speaker 2 (31:46):
But who doesn't like waffle House.

Speaker 1 (31:50):
I'll be honest. If you don't like waffle House, I
said it yesterday. It's great if you're the type of
person that's not looking forward to happy Gilmore too, I'm
probably not the type of guy that would be your friend.

Speaker 2 (31:58):
If you don't like waffle.

Speaker 1 (31:59):
House, late night, early midday anything, you're probably not the
type of guy I would like either. Danny g one time,
the Cavino and Rich Show, and by the way, I
think this is week we were up for like a
morning gate somewhere on terrestrial radio, and the PD of
the radio stations like, oh, Cabrino and a Rich. I
just got one question for you. Are you a Chilula

(32:21):
guy or a tap Patillo guy? And we're like, oh no,
And I think I gave the wrong answer because we
didn't get that job. You no things.

Speaker 2 (32:28):
That's the reason why we did. That's it. I like
both of them, because I do.

Speaker 1 (32:31):
I like both. I like all hot sauces now great,
but it was one of those things. How did you
answer again? I said, Chilula answer, and then the program
director went, oh yeah, And you know I never called
this back, give you all all. Well, thank you, spotty guys.

(39:05):
the hardcore wrestling fans, because people are still buzzing about
his Monday Night Mike skills. They're saying, he's such a
good heel if this is his outro or his goodbye,
if it all ends at Summer Slam. If it's so good,
doesn't he keep it rolling a little longer?

Speaker 2 (39:20):
Well, what does it? Wrestle man?

Speaker 1 (39:21):
He isn't like a month and then Summer Slam Like
this John Cena villain has got the casual fan like
skimming through Monday Night Raw. Like John Cena finally spoke,
I mean I keep seeing the highlights. It looks great. Yeah,
people are saying that did Vince McMahon misstep a little
by never making him a heel over? The how does
it all unfold? Does he go out as a bad guy?

Speaker 2 (39:42):
I know, I think eventually he has to end, like
there has to be one more turn.

Speaker 1 (39:46):
Really, you know, Iowa Sam was playing Nirvana before. Did
you ever see that wrestler he's like, you know, in
one of those local circuits, the guy that goes by
the name of Steven Flow, Steven Flow and his whole
kimmick because he's like a crunchy nineties rock guy, Steve
in Flo.

Speaker 2 (40:06):
Do you ever see the local like wrestling guy on
social media that beats people with his junk? No?

Speaker 3 (40:11):
What what about the pizza man who got the rubber
dough pizza?

Speaker 1 (40:18):
Have you seen that?

Speaker 3 (40:19):
He's like spins around, he punches somebody, he keeps.

Speaker 1 (40:22):
You gotta look up Steven Flow too. But yeah, man,
John Cena, that's everything he's doing is work and so
far it is great to see. Now MONSI said she's
going to see Shakira. Shaquita is what she said. Shakita
a conversation for another day, But I just looked it up.
Shakira's forty eight. She's so nice. You gotta say it twice.
Is Shakira the best looking celebrity that's around fifty? I

(40:47):
don't know. I'm not playing this game. Oh yeah, I
don't know about that. You're not playing this game. Yeah,
I don't know. I have to think about it.

Speaker 5 (40:53):
I will say she looks better now than she did
when she was younger. Like I've seen a meme recently,
a split screen gorgeous.

Speaker 1 (41:00):
She was just Amy has turned fifty. I believe Ava Longoria,
and she looks she had a big party. I saw
her like biting into a cake. Yeah, I couldn't make
the party, but she looks good. You can't leave Selma
Hayak out of this conversation. She's a little older, right,
She's definitely in her hold to Selma. I'm just saying
it's just an inspiration that. But she looks fantastic now.

(41:21):
But Rich said, you know, close to fifty.

Speaker 3 (41:23):
Well you got Jennifer Lopezho's fifty five and looks amazing
as well.

Speaker 1 (41:28):

I throw me Cathro a dude in the mix, you
know whose birthday was a couple days ago on Saint
Patty's Day.

Speaker 2 (41:37):
Rob Lowe is sixty one.

Speaker 1 (41:38):
That's ridiculous. I mean he's up there with like the
Stamoses and idris Elbows of the world where it's like,
how did these guys not age? So? Hey, you guys
are fifty right? You look pretty good inspiration? How dare
hell dare you? You look like a catcher'san No, I
do not. Even Johnny Bench looks like Robby Pete's catchers man.
You look like Carlton Fisks catchers bro. Have a great

(42:00):
