00:00:33
Speaker 1: Who are you ready?

00:00:34
Speaker 2: Poorting the game of ton right now? Tigers up a run on the Cleveland Guardians. You have a horse in that race mentally or no? No, But I like Labor Torres still, so I guess I'll. I would say, it's really a matter of do you want the team that made this miraculous comeback or do you want to see Detroit write the ship after collapsing worse than anyone other than the Mets. Yeah, I don't know. We'll see what happened, and we'll keep you posted. We're Covino and Rich. We're broadcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio studios, and.

00:01:05
Speaker 1: We be rocking out.

00:01:07
Speaker 2: Let's go postseason ghost season, right, Remember no yawn throughout the month of October, because when you do a ghost sticks is junk in your face. Iowa Sam is on the ones, he shooes. Danny G is the super producer of this professional gram Covino and Rich with up.

00:01:26
Speaker 1: Danny G.

00:01:26
Speaker 2: Congrats on your Dodgers, man, thank you. You know what's gross about the Dodgers just their ability to hit the ball and step up in the moment. It's like they picked up right where they left off, like their tailor made for October. Guys like Keith Ahernandez step up like they're superstars. I don't know what it is, man, It's like they turn on they look great already, and hey, congrats to the Reds on a decent run and for making it. But the Dodgers just outclassed them. Just too big of a team, and well, congrats again to them. I will say this, starting Saturday. You can't have those bullpen Shenettigans against Philadelphia.

00:02:04
Speaker 1: It's not gonna work.

00:02:04
Speaker 3: No, But you saw that they found their closer in Rokie, who was hurt all season and healthy just in time.

00:02:11
Speaker 1: Seems that way.

00:02:11
Speaker 2: It seems that way, But I'm just saying, like the Dodgers, the setup guys.

00:02:15
Speaker 1: Yes they are struggling.

00:02:16
Speaker 2: They could score at will. It seems like that lineup is just insane and memory. But however, games and the series have been tremendous. The ratings prove it. Ratings are up. Everything about it is exciting. You know, these games are nail biers. Can I tell you something? Watching that game again as a Yankees fan, yes, or a Yankees Red Sox it was a must win for the Yankees. Obviously they won the game, and I found it like almost impossible to enjoy because I'm pacing the house.

00:02:44
Speaker 1: I feel alive.

00:02:45
Speaker 2: It's fun of being a say you feel alive in the moment, but are you really having fun.

00:02:49
Speaker 1: Where you're so nervous the whole time.

00:02:52
Speaker 2: It's the great debate of sports, Like it's it's the great debate do you rather your football team win.

00:02:59
Speaker 1: Rather than in thirty one to three? It makes it a great.

00:03:02
Speaker 2: Game, I think for the casual viewer and the person who's not emotionally invested. But when you're as emotionally invested as I am, or as everybody is, when they really root for a team, it's hard to not It's hard to have fun if it's not a blowout, like I want the Yankees to blow them out tonight so I can enjoy, relax and have fun.

00:03:23
Speaker 1: That's no fun.

00:03:24
Speaker 2: I'll be moonwalking in my socks throughout the living room. They score more than like four, Can they have a big inning and score like six seven runs?

00:03:32
Speaker 1: You know it's fun, that's fun.

00:03:33
Speaker 2: What's fun right now is Detroit Cleveland two to one, sixth inning?

00:03:38
Speaker 1: Yeah?

00:03:38
Speaker 2: But for you close exactly, when it's so close. Oh, it's just gut wrenching. It's fun for everyone. And when you look back, all the best games, all the best sports memories you have, are always a close game. No one's like, you know what I love? No, I disagree. I love one twelve two because it takes away stress. It takes away the stress and it just enhances the joel. I think after if you win and it was stressful, you're like, oh, what a game. But if it's like you lose, you're like my soul. Yes, more relief than elation.

00:04:07
Speaker 1: Yes.

00:04:07
Speaker 2: As you see my old school forty nine ers sweatshirt on tonight, I'm wearing it because they might I might have to suit up tonight. They might need to have me play with Pierce all out rock party.

00:04:18
Speaker 1: It's a position, Rich, what would you play? What would I play? Slot? Receive punt.

00:04:22
Speaker 4: They need someone to catch the ball punt their so they're fine there, you need someone to catch the ball.

00:04:27
Speaker 2: When you take that back to my childhood, There's got to be so many jokes there. I'm just so focused on the Yankees, I couldn't think of it.

00:04:32
Speaker 1: What rich is a long snapper? With a long snapper? Question? Rich is Bobby Bouchet.

00:04:39
Speaker 2: If you're a forty nine Ers fan, it's a great example because they won back to back Super Bowls eighty nine, ninety eighty eight, eighty nine, depending if you call out the Super Bowl season or the season year. The first time was the drive with Montana against the Bengals, John tail or back of the end zone. The Niners win on that final drive. Remember, oh, there's John Candy in the stands. The next year they beat the Broncos fifty five to ten. Yeah, I think you misunderstanding what I'm saying. I'm going I'm not saying it's a better game, but it's more enjoyable because there's less stress involved. I remember being having fun when I'm pacing around the living room. That all the fun, and then the dog's looking at you, like what's going on here?

00:05:23
Speaker 1: Taking me up for a walk.

00:05:25
Speaker 2: I remember as a little boy, I'll admit this, I was like almost crying in my room, thinking the Niners are gonna love to the Beangles and then Montana doesn't drive. I remember jumping around, like on my bed, like I was in a hotel room, just jumping on the bed.

00:05:39
Speaker 3: Also on NFL Sundays, I know you're rich, you do the same thing. Your places never look cleaning cleaner because I stress clean during games. I'm like, oh that's dusty, and I'm dusting and it's it's crazy.

00:05:51
Speaker 2: I alone in that My living room and kitchen look immaculate. My the wood glimmer and shine on my kitchen table from how many times I broke out the pledge.

00:06:03
Speaker 1: Come on, rock Berdie.

00:06:04
Speaker 2: It's really a question are these nail biers actually entertaining if you're emotionally invested, if you're just a casual fan, yeah, they're great games, so when you're on the losing end, it ends up sucking. But I talked about it this season with my met fran friends. I was like yeah, man, like, what do you rather? You'd rather win the division by fifteen games? When they're like, yes, yes, I agree. I love the fighting nature of it, but if you come out on the winning side of it, you know, I don't know if that's fun when you're pacing around like a lunatic.

I hope you're enjoying the postseason. Ghost season. And speaking of baseball, Rich, I gotta just ask you one more time about the close gamer blow. I'm not gonna go with you. You different people. You're a high energy, high strung guy. I like to chill. I was born with chill. You were born with none. I want to relax and watch my team blow him out and beat him and not be stressed. I understand it's a better game when it's close, but for me personally, I like to know that we have it in the back. Yeah, but that's like, that's stressful, man. That's I didn't yesterday and I was stressed out the whole time. I didn't have fun watching that. But you know, when you got hair hair, I lost calories. I ripped a whole in my sock from just walking around so much.

00:08:34
Speaker 1: Who's your reliever? That looked like he was the most excited men in the world. Who is that oose man cruise?

00:08:39
Speaker 2: When he comes off the mouth and he's like, ah, like banging his chest, how are you not fired up yourself? Me?

00:08:45
Speaker 1: But only out of relief, not out of not out of joy.

00:08:48
Speaker 2: So my point is, I like you could say, like it's torturous, but I like watching my team almost play from behind the times and catch up.

00:09:00
Speaker 1: Or I like, you probably like being tortured by women too. It's a weird preference.

00:09:03
Speaker 2: I like, like, I like the game being you also like being stomped on with women in high heels. My thing not into that at all, by the way, But if the game, if the game is two to two and you're like, all right, we got this part of the lineup coming up to me, that's like a good fun, healthy stress. I hate games when your team is winning. Let's say your team was winning twelve two. There's times where you're almost rooting for your team to get out so you can get the game moving along, like all right, let's let's move this along, like all right, sixth inning, Come on, you're more worried about, like all right, let's just get.

00:09:38
Speaker 1: There, unless you have a bad bullpen. Then you're like four more, four more runs.

00:09:41
Speaker 2: But like Danny, there was a point last night where Dodgers fans had to be like, all right, let's let's move this along, all right, pie Hayes or whoever's up at the end of the line of just ground out pie head.

00:09:53
Speaker 1: No it's Pothead, not Pothead. All right, come on, let's go. I hear what you're saying. Part of you just wants to get it over.

00:10:00
Speaker 2: You ever go you ever go to a game and it's a blowout, and even in your favor, and you're sort of like, all right, line up, like come on, let's we don't need let's gotta be traffic.

00:10:09
Speaker 1: Come on.

00:10:10
Speaker 2: I'm just saying I love a close game, and I was locked in to that Red Sox Yankees game.

00:10:16
Speaker 1: You also love a parade.

00:10:17
Speaker 2: People are different, But you know what I didn't liked the Dodgers Reds game. Dodgers outmatch that bunk team. So you know, once when they got that two run lead in the first inning off of the ti Oscar a little mishandle in right field, I was happy about that, Danny, because I'm like, all right, at least now, like there's a little excitement because I knew the Dodgers would somehow put up at least five to ten.

00:10:37
Speaker 1: I don't I don't know why you would want to watch a blowout if it's.

00:10:40
Speaker 2: A Sunday football. I'll turn a game off if like, all right, the second because there's less stress involved, different strokes for different folks.

00:10:48
Speaker 1: I get it.

00:10:48
Speaker 2: Like I said, I understand we're not gonna agree, but you're not gonna convince me otherwise. I feel alive in those moments, but I'm stressed out. I'd like to sit back and you know what I felt like, remember that old Adam Sandler bit and I throw back Thursday of the nervous kid playing baseball like oh no, please don't hate it to me, oh no, oh no, by the excited Southerner every time every time the Yankees were on defense. You know, when a new Pitcher took the mound. I'm dying inside. I'm like, oh no, oh no, oh no. On the Red Sox Aregon score, oh no. And then when they're at bad I'm like, oh, yes, please score, run, oh yes.

00:11:23
Speaker 1: Oh.

00:11:24
Speaker 2: That's the only really fight out is when they're playing offense. Everything you're saying otherwise, I'm dying outside the whole time. Everything you're saying makes sense. You just want your team to win, and I get it and convincingly and easily, easily, and my dumb theory only makes sense if your team wins. I'm just saying, all your best memories in sports never have to do it blowouts.

00:11:42
Speaker 1: I guarantee.

00:11:43
Speaker 2: Dan Buyer, who's a big Seahawks fan, one of his favorite memories is definitely when Richard Sherman and Michael Crabtree and you guys, you know the Niners are about to go for the win and you guys won. That's a game where you were probably pacing around your living room or you might have even admit at that game, like those are the moments.

00:11:59
Speaker 5: You live for as a sports fan, now, yeah, absolutely. And then the next year when they were down by the Packers and had that crazy comeback and then ended up winning an overtime. That was another one compared to when they blew out the Broncos in the Super Bowl and it was over at halftime. There were absolutely different.

00:12:14
Speaker 2: Not to say you don't appreciate it, but when they blew out the Broncos in the Super Bowl towards a third quarter, weren't you sort of like, let's just move the clock along and hoist the trophy.

00:12:24
Speaker 5: Soon this Percy Harvard around the kickback, You're like, all right, this.

00:12:26
Speaker 2: Is okay, let's get this in retrospect, right, And again, it was your retrospect if your team is not in it. By the way, the Tigers does not apply to you. Tiger's up six to one, stealing my job, Rich, That's all right. Tiger's up six to one, and this got a little out of hand quick. So Cleveland has nine outs left at home to try to make this a game. But see, if you're a Detroit fan, yeah, of course you want to pile on. You're like, oh, come on, make an eight one. That's not as exciting. I'm not locked into this game in my peripherals as much.

00:12:56
Speaker 1: Disagree.

00:12:56
Speaker 2: Yeah, because again you're a casual fan you're not a fan of either one of those teams, so you want to see a close game. If you root for that team, you want them to win and not stress you.

00:13:07
Speaker 1: I could sum it.

00:13:08
Speaker 2: Up the difference between you and I know, but the answers in the body language. If you're pacing around like a maniac, your body language would imply you're not really having fun. You're kind of stressed. But it's good stress. It's fun stress. I get that. Do you remember what it's It's not a joyous moment until the game's over, and then I sit there and I think, man, that was I don't know, man, because if they would have lost last night, you feel like quitting the sport, like.

00:13:34
Speaker 1: I'm not watching ever again.

00:13:36
Speaker 2: Do you remember that forty nine Ers game in the playoffs where they were completely outplayed in the snow in Green Bay, but they somehow blocked a punt in the fourth quarter scored a touchdown on the Niners one. If you remember, Danny, I jumped in my pool that that was like they started the tradition. That was the most Again, convin I get what he's saying, like unenjoyable. Yet at the end you're like, oh my god, you don't want to be stressed out the whole time. But the difference between Covino and I, which is probably the difference between so many listeners and people checking us out right now, you love to be tortured. I love a little torture. Well, that's weird that in that I don't need clamps on my nippi. I'm not saying I gotta clamp the nips. But what I'm saying is if the Mets or one of my teams is winning eleven to two, I'm actually sometimes not watching it anymore.

00:14:21
Speaker 1: I'm like, all right.

00:14:21
Speaker 2: Also, I love that Cavino will Cavino will be a dinner get this. This is my This is the way the best sum it up. If we're dinner, Danny g having some wings, guys night out. You know, we always joke that Cavino has his phone out for every Yankees game there is.

00:14:36
Speaker 1: Yeah, can't miss a minute. I respect that.

00:14:39
Speaker 2: But now, if to me, if the Yankees are winning eight to one, I'm like, all right, they got this one, I'm turning it off. Covina loves to watch the Pylon.

00:14:46
Speaker 1: Because they're my only joy. That's my only joy.

00:14:49
Speaker 2: If the Mets are up if the Mets are up big, I turn it off. I'm like, hey, they got this one.

00:14:54
Speaker 1: That's weak.

00:14:54
Speaker 3: Bro, How did you even admit sports is kind of like our version of a soap opera. We don't I don't want to miss anything. Yeah, I feel like you're left out. Yeah, you don't want to be left out of anything that happens with your.

00:15:05
Speaker 2: I want them to build their confidence. Yeah, keep building that confidence. Everyone, get involved in the party. Yeah, keep getting RBIs, keep getting hits, Pile it on and then take away the stress. Enjoy the victory. I have the flip question and it we'll move on. So again, this all stems from some of these games. Most of these games have been nail biers, except for your Dodgers, Danny, G Are you really enjoying them when your heart's on the line the entire time? Well, they're tough to enjoy because last night was very stressful. If they didn't win, that was the last baseball game I watched for the season. It's hard to relax in that moment. What's worse, buddy? Yeah, And I'm up putting this out there in the universe, but I sort of am. What would you be more upset? By Red Sox win nine to one tonight or they win to one in the Knife. The blowout would probably upset me more because you know, I would at least have the hope, the peace of mind, and the solace of knowing that they.

00:16:08
Speaker 1: Were in the game and they battled. Yeah, you want to scratch until the very end. Yeah, Like I don't blow out like I say, you go out.

00:16:14
Speaker 2: I mean that's weak, but that's that's but the close one you leave yourself in more what ifs though.

00:16:20
Speaker 1: I don't know.

00:16:20
Speaker 2: Man, me and you view these things differently, I guess, And that's why it's a fun question for you. Fox Sports Radio Nation eight seven, seven ninety nine on Fox. But the question only applies if your team's in it and your heart's on the line, Because again, if if it's not, then all you want you want to see a close game.

00:16:37
Speaker 1: I could. I understand that.

00:16:38
Speaker 2: It's like it's like every game in the Super If your team's not in the Super Bowl, you want to see a good, competitive game.

00:16:43
Speaker 1: You don't want to see a blowout. So let me ask you this.

00:16:45
Speaker 2: With the four wild card games, all yours already wrapped up. D NYG Dodgers Phillies. What matchup do you like better for the DS? Do you want it to be a divisional Cubbies Brewers or do you want to see the Padres Brewers?

00:17:01
Speaker 1: What do you think is more fun? Oh you're asking Canda anyone.

00:17:05
Speaker 2: Padres Brewers or Cubby's Brewers. Oh that's a good one, because that that game just started. That's in the first Sorry, Dan Bayer, just let you. I'd like to see Padres zero zero. I personally would like to see them. There's a lot of star power in San Diego. I want to see how these young brewers size up them and as much.

00:17:24
Speaker 1: As uh in this moment, as much as.

00:17:26
Speaker 2: It might be fun to see you uh cry about the Yankees, I think Yankees blue Jays being that they did tie. Oh yeah, they both had the same exact record. I think Yankees blue Jays would be a great divisional matchup. What do you think about this? It looks like it's Detroit Seattle and that's going to be a battle too. I think this is we're we got some great playoffs, man. I think what we'll agree on here Rich in this weird debate we're having, and it's like, you know, how do you enjoy the game. How do you feel about these close matchups? Is you do get that sense of feeling like alive, Like you're so in the moment, you're so invested, you're so animated, you're so into it, and that is the fun of sports.

00:18:07
Speaker 1: I get it.

00:18:08
Speaker 2: But man, it's it's uberly stressful. And I definitely lost a lot of hair watching I could tell your hairline. So I got sat on top man Mike and Cincinnati hit us up and he said, guys, there's a rub here.

00:18:20
Speaker 1: He goes, wait until your kids get a little older.

00:18:22
Speaker 2: Rich when it comes to watching pros versus your kids, when your kids are an important game.

00:18:27
Speaker 1: You want the blowout, you know, because he's like, you'll lose.

00:18:29
Speaker 2: You'll lose, as he said, years off your life watching your kids in a really close.

00:18:34
Speaker 1: Compete in anything. Yeah, I agree. I know.

00:18:36
Speaker 5: There's been a lot of conversation. We were even talking yesterday about not feeling fulfilled by a Red Sox Yankees three game series. You know, like you just you want like a seven sort of game series. However, in terms of like how it like builds up and how it feeds out, I'm not too mad at the three game series. Because there's no guarantee we would get a seven game series or even a five game series from them. But I'm just curious from your guys perspectives, especially Cavino, like are you are you mad that you had to face the Red Sox or you just would you rather have faced them in a seven game series since you like the blowout not the close game.

00:19:14
Speaker 1: How do you feel.

00:19:15
Speaker 5: About facing your rival in a short sort of format as opposed to a longer one.

00:19:19
Speaker 1: All right, look at it this way.

00:19:21
Speaker 2: It used to be a one game playoff, so looking back at that, looking back at that, I get it. But looking back and for years we had a one game two wildcard teams played one wish it was a five game series, though I do. I do wish it was a little longer, But I know it's better than it used to be, so I can't complain. The only reason it can't be a five game is because then you have these teams with bye they can't sit around for a week, and then you're going to get to November.

00:19:44
Speaker 1: So yeah, it makes sense.

00:19:45
Speaker 3: I do like how they took the travel out of it also.

00:19:48
Speaker 5: Yeah, and I think it's a significant advantage for the home team to be able to get all three games at I mean, the higher seeded team in those series. But some fans were feeling not a filled because they only get three games, could have only got two if your Yankees didn't win last night series.

00:20:05
Speaker 2: They painted a big picture last night about how you know me. I'm not a Yankees fan at all. The Bronx looked popping last night. That stadium looked like I haven't seen that excitement a Yankee stadium in quite a while. It seemed like they were panting around the crowd. They panted a little too much of this one dude in the mustache like some random guy and kept pointing like I didn't notice because I was. I was walking around like a maniac. But this says like, can you sit down? I'm like, no, I can't. The same way, the Dodgers broadcast was obsessed with Jason Bateman.

00:20:35
Speaker 1: Oh that in the Service Dog? Like Queen enough of Bateman in the Service Dog.

00:20:40
Speaker 2: The guy with the mustache was Austin Wells and he had the game winning hit last night.

00:20:44
Speaker 1: Not that guy.

00:20:44
Speaker 2: Yeah, so well, listen, enjoy your MLB playoffs. We'll talk, of course, a little bit more about MLB throughout the day, but lots of NFL. We got Thursday Night Football, kick it off Week five. My Niners are depleted, but I have a thought about the Niners rams time.

00:22:23
Speaker 1: Different strokes to rule the world.

00:22:26
Speaker 2: I just saw one of those baseball stats where you're like, no way.

00:22:32
Speaker 1: Give it to me, Dwayne stats, because there's always a stat that amazes you. In the career.

00:22:40
Speaker 2: Battle between the Detroit Tigers and the Cleveland Indian Slash Guardians today is the rubber match because until today those two franchises are one thousand, one hundred and sixty seven and one thousand, one hundred and sixty seven against each others. So today it looks like Detroit wins the rubber match after you know.

00:23:05
Speaker 1: Close to twenty five hundred games. So that's wild. That is wild.

00:23:09
Speaker 2: Cavino and Rich live from the Fox Sports Radio studios. Remember old school in fifty hits in about twenty minutes, we throw it back and reminisce. We're gonna talk old school cartoons. We'll explain later on. Plus, our Bonus podcast debuts today, episode one eleven, and I'll tell you more about it later on. So in the meantime, catch us on our YouTube page, Covino and Rich FSR Iowa Sam playing some sli in the family stone. That is signing the family Stone, right, Sam.

00:23:35
Speaker 1: Absolutely, sir.

00:23:35
Speaker 4: And by the way, remember, like a long time ago, I was like, di dude, Yankees fans ever say yank D's and you're wearing the shirt yank ds.

00:23:44
Speaker 2: You know who made that shirt? Who store at cavino on Rich dot com. All right, we mean still see in our shirt. It was great about this shirt.

00:23:52
Speaker 1: I thought that was from Gronk's website. No, no, he would make a shot like that. Yeah, yankedes man.

00:23:58
Speaker 2: It's great because if you love the Yankees, it works. And if you hate the Yankees, oh it's awesome. So available at Cavino Rich dot com. Yankees, let's go. And if you just joined us, you know, Rich and I approving without even trying how different we are. The guy was born with no chill, so he loves a nail biter. If your team's in a nail biter, it's almost hard to say you enjoyed the game because the Yankees won yesterday. But afterward, I'm thinking to myself, did I really enjoy that? I felt relief afterward, But I'm like, I don't even know if that was fun. That was so stressful. So that's basically what we're wrapping up now. It's easy. You know what you're You're right, though, we are cut from a different cloth because he mind's leather, yours is like, I don't know what yours is. Burlap, Yeah, bur lap or something, some sort of burlap sack. I don't care what money is, but yours is definitely leather, because you think you're like the Mexican fonds where It is interesting though, because in all aspects of life, I do like that thrill of panic, a panic and uncertainty.

00:25:08
Speaker 1: It's terrible.

00:25:09
Speaker 2: For example, the Tigers are up six to one, right Rich says, you see this game right here, Tigers Cleveland. I'm bored by it already because of six to one. I'm like, I get it because you don't care about either team, but Detroit Tigers fans feel great about that.

00:25:25
Speaker 1: That's my point.

00:25:25
Speaker 2: You know, given more a rush, they would have more of a rush if it was two us, not joy that's panic, and I think you have like a misunderstanding of what joyous feel feels like.

00:25:35
Speaker 1: I'm a rollercoaster guy. You're a teacup guy.

00:25:37
Speaker 2: I guess maybe, maybe, maybe maybe I'm a maybe I'm a Peter Pan's flight kind of guy. Have you ever you never went on Peter Pan's flight?

00:25:47
Speaker 1: Have you ever had a.

00:25:49
Speaker 2: How do I say this politely on Fox Sports? Have you ever made love in a place where you could get caught where you're.

00:25:56
Speaker 1: Like, no way, risk, adrenaline rush.

00:25:59
Speaker 2: I must love that, and you would think I'm a skydiver something I'm not. I just feel like you you like very little risk and you like very little excitement. Like you seem like sort of a dud of a guy's amaze say, he seems like a dud.

00:26:12
Speaker 1: You like to be titillated, rich, that's what you're like. Yeah, he likes a nail bier. He likes he thinks that's fun.

00:26:18
Speaker 2: You know, you realize that it's called the nail bier because you're nervous and you're panicky.

00:26:22
Speaker 1: The whole time.

00:26:22
Speaker 2: Biting your nails doesn't equal fun. I think you're you were dropped on your head or something you're misunderstanding. Put that helmet on, that's Strauss helmet, because that's not fun until it's over and he won.

00:26:34
Speaker 4: I think you remember it fondly because of how stressful it was. Like I think I think of certain football wins for Iowa where they escaped and you're like, that was amazing, but only after the fact.

00:26:43
Speaker 2: Here's the designing factor. What do you guys think? Hit us up at Covino Enrich at Fox Sports Radio. We'll wrap it up with one more phone call. All right, have James in Orlando studio.

00:26:57
Speaker 1: What's up? What's up? Gentlemen show radio?

00:26:59
Speaker 3: Right?

00:27:00
Speaker 1: Thank you man? You guys, Yeah, first time in Yeah. I mean I'm with Cabino on this one.

00:27:05
Speaker 5: I'm a Miami Hurricane, and let me tell you something.

00:27:08
Speaker 1: I'm all week.

00:27:09
Speaker 2: I've been stressing about this game coming up on Saturday, and I am going to be wearing out the carpet if it's a close game.

00:27:16
Speaker 1: No, for real, I'm going to be pacing.

00:27:18
Speaker 2: And I want to blow out.

00:27:19
Speaker 1: I blowout so I can't watch them kick ass. Yes, James.

00:27:25
Speaker 2: You know what you said, You wore out your carpet. I don't have carpets, but you know what I have now. I started off to night with a brand new pair of gold toe socks. They were mint. By the end of the night they were screen door socks on the bottom. You know what I mean by screen door socks. They already wore through A pair just sucks like the dirty screens in my cousin vidio that the old lady couldn't see through.

00:27:49
Speaker 1: You gave my girlfriend.

00:27:50
Speaker 2: You know, I have a theory on this too, because girls don't burn through socks the way guys do.

00:27:56
Speaker 1: They don't it's heavier. Look at your.

00:27:58
Speaker 2: Wife and girlfriends socks, both of them, if you have both both of their socks. They don't have this a goomad look at hers dead. They don't have the screen door troubles that we have. And my theory is this, they don't panic about sports the way we do, and they don't create as much friction as we do as big fat slobs. They don't have that weight friction pacing around watching a really tight fight or a tight.

00:28:22
Speaker 1: Game the way we do.

00:28:23
Speaker 2: Because my girlfriend hits me up, She's like aren't you embarrassed wearing those things? I'm like, these are game day socks. Have you ever watched a fight with Cavino? He's shadow boxing like she's Tank Davis or something.

00:28:34
Speaker 1: Nerve.

00:28:35
Speaker 3: Nowadays, there are so many females who are huge sports fans just like us. And I will say about my better half, Baseball Dodgers is what stresses her out the most.

00:28:45
Speaker 1: But you're right, she stresses in a whole different way.

00:28:48
Speaker 3: I'm pacing and she rocks in her chair, like the way you see Rich with his nervous energy. That's what she'll do when you know Vessia comes in, she's rocking like this.

00:28:57
Speaker 2: Can I tell my pep peeve about my wife because I have very few because she's a good woman. My wife has this stupid approach to.

00:29:03
Speaker 1: This poor boy. Somebody sent her this sound bite.

00:29:06
Speaker 2: My wife has the stupidest. My kids think stupid. It's a curseword. It's so funny, dude, that's a stupid She doesn't she doesn't want to watch big plays when her team is playing like she like covers her and dips in the kitchen like looking in the fridge like my wife. My wife's a packers fan when they were playing Sunday night against the Cowboys. During a big play, I'm like, babe, it's third and one and she's in the kitchen and she's like, I can't watch.

00:29:34
Speaker 1: You can't watch. It's you're gonna dip away for all the big plays when he was Psycha.

00:29:38
Speaker 2: And you know what, we're gonna move on slightly. But I had that same exact thought yesterday because I couldn't watch, and I'm like, that's why they're in the big leagues though, because they're able to slow it down and compose themselves and they're more in control. When you're a fan, you're not in control. If you've played sports, you know you're in it. You're not nervous. But I was watching Anthony Volpi in a pressure moment yesterday. I'm thinking, my goodness, he's there in front of fifty five screaming fans, a bunch of New York botchaka loops, millions watching all over the place, and he's you know, he's in the moment. Meanwhile, I can't even watch. So nerves are high, and that's what makes it exciting. But I'm not sure if I had fun watching last night. And that's the question, Well, so we have to talk some NFL. No, there's so much going on. There's even a fight rumor today, so what I'm gonna save that fight rumor for over prime So fights, football, baseball stress. But let's go to Dan Bayer for an update. dB, what's doing? My friends?

00:30:36
Speaker 1: Guy's a lot doing?
