00:01:44
Speaker 4: So what do we learned yesterday?

00:01:45
Speaker 3: Lebron is unselfish, the streak is over, but the Lakers are good, and we learned that maybe the Cowboys aren't there and the Lions, who we thought well, I mean, I can't say I totally changed my mind.

00:01:57
Speaker 4: I'm not that flip floppy.

00:01:59
Speaker 3: I still think they might make the playoffs, but yesterday, if they would have lost, it's over. I still think it doesn't look good because they got to go play the Rams in a week. I know they have a little extra rest, but that Rams Lions game that's now even bigger.

00:02:12
Speaker 4: So NFL just continues to deliver.

00:02:14
Speaker 2: You are pretty flip flopping, though no one wears flip flops more than you I.

00:02:18
Speaker 4: Think I wear.

00:02:19
Speaker 3: I think you're a weirdo that you think like showing your feet flip flops with jeans.

00:02:24
Speaker 4: I don't wear flipoue one of them.

00:02:28
Speaker 3: Google it in in the New York post on a red carpet in maybe, oh god, post on the red carpet. Look it up, maybe in the two thousands. All right, So I don't rock jeans with flip pops. But you're the type of guy that wear sneakers to the beach because you must have busted feet or something.

00:02:44
Speaker 1: Lies.

00:02:44
Speaker 2: These are lies, though, these are just straight lies. I'll show you my feet right now on YouTube. But anyway, you have to pay for that at the door. Right now, I have an only fans paid for that. Now that ties into the rest of our conversation. Lebron as a luxury where he could have these old guy injuries because he could rely on his young teammates like Reeves and and Luke had to step up when he's not feeling right. He has left foot joint arthritis and sciatica. Right, So we just want to wrap up the conversation of what are some ailments or references or old guy things that are dead giveaways that that person's older than you. Oh, and your dad is victim. He calls flip flops thongs. Oh, Richie, I got my thongs. My dad your thongs.

00:03:31
Speaker 3: He goes, yeah, I'm oh you called them flip flop.

00:03:35
Speaker 5: My parents call them thongs too. Its generational, you know, I because they're old.

00:03:38
Speaker 2: So when I hear about Rich's dad's thongs, I'm like, yo, man, this guy's showing a lot of cheek this summer.

00:03:43
Speaker 1: Huh.

00:03:44
Speaker 2: So that's an old guy thing we already mentioned, like the old people candy. I'll give you one, I say, bust out of Werthers or one of those strawberry dollar tree candies.

00:03:53
Speaker 3: I said something the other day and I stopped myself because I was like, I don't want to sound like the old guy. I mean, I don't expect remember every story we tell on the show. But do you remember I went to take my kids to go see Wicked two and it was the same day as the forty nine ers. Yeah, Carolina Panthers Monday, and I said.

00:04:09
Speaker 1: You were gonna tape something. Yeah.

00:04:10
Speaker 3: I was like, I'm gonna take the game, and I'm like, hold on, correction, I'm gonna record it.

00:04:13
Speaker 4: I'm not such a good one taping. I hope the VHS works.

00:04:18
Speaker 6: Another one along those lines, my mom. I talked to her a couple of weeks ago, and she said, yeah, I gotta go run some errands. I gotta deposit some money at the bank. What Yeah, who goes to the money the bank to deposit money that?

00:04:31
Speaker 1: We all have direct deposits for that.

00:04:33
Speaker 3: Or like even if someone gives you a check, just you take a picture of.

00:04:37
Speaker 6: It on your phone, or if somebody writes a check or talks about their check book, do you guys, when's the last time any of us wrote an actual check.

00:04:44
Speaker 1: I still write checks for my landlord requires it. I used to use.

00:04:50
Speaker 5: My previous landlord said you zell or like a you know, and so like I went in back in time.

00:04:56
Speaker 4: I like regress landlord.

00:04:58
Speaker 2: It's a very old guy thing to not have venmo, to not have zeal, to not have you know, access cash, you know, and there's no shade here.

00:05:07
Speaker 4: But it is an old guy thing.

00:05:09
Speaker 2: And I have to check myself sometimes because my references are a little older. But when mad Dog talks about Bob Coozy every second, five could hey, it just sounds so old to me right, yeah, and.

00:05:21
Speaker 1: He's the best and then we love him.

00:05:22
Speaker 4: So that's no shade there, the old guy stuff.

00:05:25
Speaker 2: You know, we started noticing that when we would reference LT but we meant we met Lawrence Taylor, obviously, but younger people were like, you mean La Danny and Tomlinson. We're like, no, we mean Lawrence Taylor. So certain things could date you without even realizing it. And Lebron's injuries are one of those things. I got one that I'm calling out you buddy, I dude, believe me. When I start talking about Atari and things like that, then you know that's a.

00:05:50
Speaker 3: Big one because I'm a kid whose first video game console was Nintendo.

00:05:54
Speaker 1: Yeah.

00:05:55
Speaker 3: So in Cavinos talking about Yo with Tari Bro, I'm like, what are you like a sixty bro? Yeah, I know you're way too young to play Atari. I mean, I know you had older cousins and stuff. I chalk it up to have a great memory. What's up, dB, what's your favorite episode of Seinfeld? Well that's a good one, the bet no, it's that's that's the question.

00:06:15
Speaker 7: If you ask thirty somethings now, they're like, I never watched it. I've never seen it. I've never watched it. It's a good one and so like, I think it's so recent in my life and it isn't. But I will bring up episodes and I was like, yeah, I never saw it. They the watch Friends. I don't know Sam's but they like, you know.

00:06:32
Speaker 2: It's also very confusing to a younger person. You know, you'll say something like yeah, yeah, you know on on Brady Bunch or I Love Lucy. You'll bring up an old show like how old are you dude, but they don't realize that you watched it on Nick at Night?

00:06:45
Speaker 6: Or yeah, like that was our version of how the twenty somethings watch Friends right now?

00:06:50
Speaker 4: Yeah, No, you're right.

00:06:51
Speaker 3: So it's like the way like how I Met your Mother or Friends or one of those shows Riairs.

00:06:55
Speaker 4: You're right, Covino, because it's like Brady Bunch, what do you hold? You're smart?

00:06:59
Speaker 1: Gets.

00:07:00
Speaker 3: Let me take it to sports for a second. Is there a stadium reference? Like I don't know, I'm not saying people do, but like the Niners, what if someone accidentally drops like a candlestick reference or like Brendan Bernerina, Yeah, like if you know you like you, I think you may have slipped recently into the New Jersey nets, Like you know, is there a uh absolutely is there like a oh man, you're an old guy reference, Like if you say the Redskins, you're like, all right, old timer, it's the commanders now. Like I was thinking along those lines too, because you could tell an older guy when they say something that's politically incorrect without trying to be rude, but it just dates them as they're older, and like, yah, you can't be saying that anymore. Yeah, you may think you're edgy, you mean, like you have the conversations with your parents.

00:07:41
Speaker 1: Yeah, you may think you're edgy, but you're just really showing me how old you are.

00:07:45
Speaker 7: And when you have fathers and sons that aren't juniors, and you like put the wrong name in front of or even something of David Carr instead of Derek Carr, you know, like you know something like that, You're like, okay, you're going to the older side of things.

00:07:59
Speaker 2: Well, you know, by the way, my name is starting to date me. Just my name period, Steve is servant older.

00:08:04
Speaker 3: I remember, so I remember might so look at the names on our show, like Sam, believe it or not, I was Sam. Sam's like a popular name again, I bet you when you grew up, Sam felt like like a name that not many kids had.

00:08:17
Speaker 5: Right, it was like it's Sam's never been like an overused name, but it was a lesser used name when I was a kid.

00:08:22
Speaker 4: But like when I was a kid, every kid was Mike or Anthony.

00:08:25
Speaker 1: My dad's name is Mike.

00:08:26
Speaker 3: And I'm thinking about what we talked about, Michael Jordan, Mike Tyson, Michael j Fox, Michael Jackson.

00:08:32
Speaker 1: Shout out to Michael Anthony of Van Halen. Does that date me?

00:08:35
Speaker 4: Yes? It absolutely does.

00:08:37
Speaker 3: But I think when you see, you know when I coached on a CD for Danny, when I when I coach all these little kids on my son's team, it's Dylan and Phoenix and Adler in this all names that are not like Rich, Rich and Steve. We got old guy names because I remember when we were fans of like Howard Stern back in the day, Howard, Gary Artie friend. Already there's no kids then, Gar In my mind, I was like, yo, that they were starting to be dated.

00:09:05
Speaker 4: But that's us now.

00:09:06
Speaker 1: Yeah, so these are dead giveaways.

00:09:09
Speaker 2: Complaining about your ailments, conversations about doctor visits. Uh, you're pumped to tell me about vitamins or supplements you're taking.

00:09:16
Speaker 1: This is all old guys talking about how you need readers.

00:09:19
Speaker 4: Yeah, read which has his proactive sixty plus.

00:09:23
Speaker 1: That was just nat.

00:09:24
Speaker 3: I wrote that down because Cavino, who is old hawkeye over here, who was like bro twenty ten vision hit five hundred in high school baseball, Like Cavino bragged about like he could see a street sign a mile away.

00:09:36
Speaker 1: They call me all ego.

00:09:37
Speaker 3: We were at we were at a fight in Vegas, and I remember being like, yo, you think he's gonna knock him out.

00:09:44
Speaker 4: There's a minute fifteen left in the round. The Comino is like, where were you seeing this?

00:09:47
Speaker 1: I couldn't see.

00:09:48
Speaker 3: That's when I got classes the big score boat. He's like, I don't see a thing. COVID plame COVID. Yeah you could say COVID. I you could say you're forty something maybe, but yeah, readers. When you see your buddies who you went to the club with ten twenty years ago and they're buying readers, that's when you know. Let's say, had a trip in Vegas, one of our good buds trip. How do you know you're getting older? What's up man, when you're Lebron James and you have arthritis?

00:10:13
Speaker 1: Yeah, what are those references? What's up?

00:10:15
Speaker 4: Trip?

00:10:16
Speaker 1: Hold on?

00:10:16
Speaker 4: Danny's phones are hot?

00:10:18
Speaker 2: Hold on phones are on fire eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox or at Covino and Rich at Fox Sports Radio on social media.

00:10:26
Speaker 8: What's up, trip, Hey, gentlemen. Always good to hear you right there in my weekend listening to y'all.

00:10:31
Speaker 4: Oh, you know what it's called?

00:10:32
Speaker 3: Danny answers a phone that has a chord on it when you when you call, that is true?

00:10:36
Speaker 4: What's up?

00:10:37
Speaker 1: Man?

00:10:38
Speaker 8: A term would be go to the market instead of the grocery store, like where the hell is the market? And then h for injuries, I would go with kennis elbow and versaidas uh.

00:10:50
Speaker 3: My dad had tennis elbow. That isn't all I think? That's like, yeah, you know what, thank you?

00:10:54
Speaker 1: Trip.

00:10:55
Speaker 2: You know the old guy reference to like give me a call is doing like the cowa bu uh shaka, like thumb to ear, and a kid today would just put his hand to his ear like call.

00:11:06
Speaker 1: Me yeah, like a flat iPhone, like.

00:11:08
Speaker 2: A flat iPhone. So even our like they say, even our gestures are like old guy gestures don't call me text me. Yeah, right, question? But yeah, you know what Rich calling me all the time. I'm like, dude, what are you seventy five years old to shoot me a text?

00:11:21
Speaker 3: You know these you do these thumbs, So I won't tell you anymore. I have a question. I know this is uh Ellen degenerous did this in a stand up routine like years ago, So I don't want you think I'm stealing Ellen's jokes of all people, but she did do a joke about like, how do you tell someone to roll down their car window now?

00:11:38
Speaker 4: Because remember back in the day, your parents would be.

00:11:39
Speaker 3: Like roll it down, Like, roll it down, like you're the great popon you make a circle with your finger?

00:11:45
Speaker 4: Do you what do you do now? Just like like if you needed to get someone's attend, like roll down the window, do you still do that?

00:11:51
Speaker 3: Hey?

00:11:52
Speaker 1: Roll it down?

00:11:52
Speaker 2: I'm gonna ask my kid that there's a universal sort of updated sign language.

00:11:58
Speaker 3: But if you want to feel if you want to feel old, look up some of these videos on TikTok or Instagram where they ask, well, there's two ways to feel old. They ask like, let's say UNC's men's basketball team, how old is someone? What year do they need to be born and they'll be like in the nineteen hundreds. It makes you feel like garbage. And the other one is when they when people show teenagers literally technology from the eighties or nineties and they pick up a cassette and they're like, what is this? Or they pick up a VCR and they're like, I don't know, like it's wild wild.

00:12:33
Speaker 2: Along with Lebron's recent injuries a game, that's an interesting one.

00:12:37
Speaker 1: I saw.

00:12:40
Speaker 3: A clip on social where they were asking kids what they thought the Yellow Pages and the White Pages were and watching kids learn that numbers you should just be in a big, fat book.

00:12:52
Speaker 2: They were like, what, like they put addresses right? You want to look people up?

00:12:58
Speaker 1: So random?

00:12:59
Speaker 3: You know it's it's we said it's snowy on the East coast. Remember on those days where the weather was a little suspect. They would be like a phone chain at school, Like your mom would get a call from someone like school's canceled.

00:13:09
Speaker 4: Then she had to call someone else's.

00:13:11
Speaker 1: You have to watch the news, yeah, scroll on the channel. Yeah, not town channel.

00:13:17
Speaker 3: I'm not trying to cramp local radio, but local radio used to be important because they'd be like, remember they do like traffic time and weather, and it's like traffic ways, weather, iPhone time phone, Like is there really a need for some local guy to be like, here's the traffic in the weather.

00:13:35
Speaker 6: Some some people like to kick back and have somebody tell it all to them.

00:13:38
Speaker 3: You think if I'm going to see you and Danny, if I'm going to if we're coming for if we're covering for like Colin and I got to see the traffic on the way to Fox. Do you think I'm listening to like the local traffic eye or you think I'm just going to waising Google Maps.

00:13:50
Speaker 2: I got two more dead giveaways that you have arthritis in your foot.

00:13:54
Speaker 4: Like finding me in a backup on the Verrizontal Bridge.

00:13:57
Speaker 2: If a younger person hands you the phone and you take the picture landscape, that's like an old guy move because every young person does it. They want they want it for like the Graham, they want it for Instagram or whatever. And if your references Facebook or even in Instagram, you're kind of an older guy because every young kid's on like Snapchat or something else.

00:14:19
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know.

00:14:19
Speaker 3: I think everyone knows that, right, Like your kids think that Facebook's like the old person in social.

00:14:23
Speaker 1: Media and that's for my aunt Sharon.

00:14:25
Speaker 3: All right, will wrap it and then we're gonna talk about our big games and we're gonna play a game.

00:14:30
Speaker 4: What's up?

00:14:30
Speaker 1: Will?

00:14:32
Speaker 9: What's up? Fellas well? First things first, I'll be listening to you guys from time. You guys on a Fox Sports and you guys are like listening to my boys hanging out.

00:14:42
Speaker 4: Dude, that's awesome. That's the goal, man.

00:14:43
Speaker 1: What's up? Thank you, buddy.

00:14:46
Speaker 9: Favorite call in ever was what a guy called in to talk trash to you guys, But you're.

00:14:51
Speaker 8: Listening to us anyway.

00:14:54
Speaker 9: I am. I am not a fashion dude. And where you guys love to go get your your favorite sports team headwear. I'm a district sales manager for out Here in Michigan and anyways, Ropers started with the company. My boss at the time was a big shoe guy and I wasn't so I wanted to be matchie MATCHI with my outfits and I went and bought myself some bomb shoes and they were the old Nike Monarchs And of course when he walked in, he's like, old guy shoes.

00:15:21
Speaker 3: Huh those are Mow the Launch, Yes, Mow the launches, and but they're sort of like they're old guys shoes.

00:15:29
Speaker 4: They're old guy shoes. They're super clunky white.

00:15:31
Speaker 3: Yeah, but don't be shocked if they make a comeback because kids wear like new Balance.

00:15:35
Speaker 2: Now you're right, you're right. Yeah, the old guy shoe was making a push. But anyway, thank you guys for all the phone calls.

00:15:41
Speaker 3: We have a few more, you know what. All right, we got to move on, guys, just too many phone calls. Ye, so much to get to one of those things. Riches Big TV Game.

00:15:51
Speaker 1: Of the Week.

00:15:52
Speaker 3: All right, it is time to go over the big TV TV Game of the Week. We do this every week thanks to TCL. Let's hit it, Sam hear my fat up.

00:16:00
Speaker 10: I got an extra.

00:16:01
Speaker 3: TV the game game that I will have Riches Big TV Game of the Week.

00:16:07
Speaker 1: It's richest big TV game of the week.

00:16:12
Speaker 3: Guys, I'm sort of torn like Creed or Nalie and Bullier. Old guy reference, old guy reference. That's music.

00:16:23
Speaker 5: Have you ever injured yourself laughing because I've gotten a cramp in my.

00:16:27
Speaker 3: Rib, I've hurt my neck. Can I tell you how an old guy thing? Not to get you off track? Rich Joseph like a like a fruit fly.

00:16:35
Speaker 2: A fly in my kitchen bothered me, and I went to snag it with my Kurt Russell miagi. What do you do with reflexes? My Jack Burton reflexes? And I reached so fast and so hard I feel I pulled my arm out, and it's been hurting me for like two weeks.

00:16:51
Speaker 1: Yeah.

00:16:51
Speaker 2: Sure, I had a commission because of this.

00:16:56
Speaker 3: Let me tell you early games. Let's zip through this because it's just too hard to decide early games. There's three good ones. Forget the Jets and Dolphins, and the Saints and Bucks and Titans, Browns, Commander's Vikings, there's some stinkers. Seahawks are gonna kill the Falcons. There's three early games. And I'll tell you what I'm gonna watch. I'm gonna watch the Colts and Jags both at eight and four. Someone's gonna lose, and someone's gonna have a one game lead in first place.

00:17:20
Speaker 4: And that's a man. I'm not gonna tell you who I think is gonna.

00:17:23
Speaker 3: Win because I don't even know the Jags maybe, but Colts and Jaggs, that's an AFC South matchup that gets the big TV.

00:17:29
Speaker 4: You might say, Rich you're not gonna give it to the Ravens and Steelers. Ooh, that's close behind.

00:17:34
Speaker 3: And I am curious to see if the Bills stomp on the Bengals or if the Bengals start their their glorious road to like making the.

00:17:41
Speaker 4: Playoffs sound like a dB guy, I think that's his game.

00:17:43
Speaker 3: Yeah, I honestly I think the Colts Jags is the game to watch, but not far behind the Bengals Bills because remember he said the Bengals could run the table.

00:17:52
Speaker 4: Who knows. And of course Steelers Ravens late game.

00:17:56
Speaker 3: Not not as hard because there's only one good one Broncos Raiders, Danny G.

00:18:02
Speaker 1: Do you want?

00:18:02
Speaker 4: You want to see your team even win this?

00:18:05
Speaker 6: This is actually important for the Broncos because they have the tie break with the Patriots. If they keep winning, then the road's gonna have to go through Denver for Yeah.

00:18:12
Speaker 3: See, so Broncos would likely stomp your team Rams Cardinals. No, Kyler Murray, Rams should easily.

00:18:19
Speaker 6: But Rich you said that last time, and it was a ten to seven game between the Raiders and Brons.

00:18:23
Speaker 3: That is true, and the one big game it's gonna be on everyone's TV. I would to be shocked if if it got huge numbers. Bears Packers on Fox's a good one, nine and three Bears eight three and one, Packers, Packers at Home a seven point favorite. Some people say the Bears haven't proven it yet, and there are people saying, like seven points, how disrespectful to the Bears.

00:18:45
Speaker 4: So Bears Packers, that's huge. And then no dispute.

00:18:49
Speaker 3: Sunday night you got one game and it's huge Texans Chiefs and then Monday Night Eagles Chargers. So all your great games. The only conflict could you know is early in the day. Are you more intrigued by Aaron Rodgers versus Lamar Jackson or you more intrigued by that AFC South Colts Jacks.

00:19:06
Speaker 2: Man, It's funny, I'm more intrigued by the Aaron Rodgers game for me. So if you throw them, though, I think the Colts Jags is probably a better game.

00:19:15
Speaker 3: So hey, thank you tcl our big TV game of the week now coming up, We're gonna play a game that's gonna give away a prize to one of you. So if you want to end eight seven, seven, nine to nine on Fox, are you in the same brain wave as Cavino?

00:19:28
Speaker 4: Rich Spot, Dandy g Sam dan Byer. So we're all involved.

00:19:32
Speaker 3: You have a chance to win again the number eight seven, seven, nine to nine on Fox to play.

00:19:37
Speaker 1: Quick Timeout holiday upgrade checks.

00:19:39
Speaker 4: Tell me what to do?

00:19:40
Speaker 1: Timeout.

00:19:41
Speaker 2: Are you still watching the games on an old small TV? No, which is the weakest, going to your house squinting at your little TV like your squintin Tarantino.

00:19:52
Speaker 1: That's good.

00:19:52
