Steve Covino (3:14)

Have you done your annual viewing yet of Ernest Scared Stupid?

Rich Davis (3:18)

I don't think I've ever seen that one.

Steve Covino (3:19)

Really? Have you ever seen what are some other dumb ones? Do you watch the Treehouse of Horror ones from Simpsons?

Rich Davis (3:24)

No.

Steve Covino (3:25)

Great Pumpkin. Charlie Brown. That sucks ass. That's the worst.

Rich Davis (3:27)

I'm more of a Great Pumpkin kind of guy.

Steve Covino (3:31)

Come on.

Rich Davis (3:32)

How about Spookly the Square Pumpkin? Kids ever see that? That's a good one. I'm actually more of an Ichabod Crane, Brom Bones Legend of Sleepy Hollow, Headless Horseman kind of guy. Disney classic. So anyway, enjoy the spooky season, the go season, postseason. Hope all your teams are winning. We have lots to get to today. This is the stuff we can't fit into our regular show, like Rich's Picks. We're going to get to that, get you fired up. For we got to talk about trending Halloween costumes because this weekend might make that trip to Citi Field. I mean, Spirit Halloween Stadium. I mean. And who's ass this week? Who's playing like ass? Who might be ass? We'll let you know. But we're kicking it off with the battle of the old guys.

Steve Covino (4:18)

I used to be a lot stronger.

Rich Davis (4:20)

Old guys are going at it today.

Steve Covino (4:22)

Old dudes, all the rage.

Rich Davis (4:24)

Over 40, you got Aaron Rodgers, Joey Flacco, two guys who won Super Bowls, two guys who've seen better days, but two guys who clearly still have game. So props to them.

Steve Covino (4:37)

An inspiration.

Rich Davis (4:38)

Yeah.

Steve Covino (4:39)

To men over 40, this can't be a first. But two guys over 40 battling it out on Thursday Night Football. Gotta love it. In fact, you gotta love the story of Aaron Rodgers. Everyone's like, look at this ayahuasca weirdo. He's gonna wither away in Pittsburgh. Now the guy is sitting pretty atop of the AFC north with no one even close.

Rich Davis (4:59)

Well, let's take some accountability. Yeah, even we thought he was done. Stick a fork in the.

Steve Covino (5:04)

What are we, French here? I remember my whole take Was. Aaron Rodgers may surprise you.

Rich Davis (5:09)

You think, though, when he was on the jets, you had his back and you thought he still had game? No, but I.

Steve Covino (5:16)

But I thought that with Pittsburgh and that coaching staff and that legacy of the Steelers that, you know, maybe you got a little juice left, you know?

Rich Davis (5:25)

You know what? Not that I'm rooting against the old guy. I got to root for the old guy. I admit. I didn't think he had anything, bro. He proved us wrong. And props to him. You got the 4 and 1 Steelers going against the Browns. I mean, the Bengals, you're forgetting because.

Steve Covino (5:41)

Joe Flacco's been on 20 different teams.

Rich Davis (5:43)

What are the Bengals?

Steve Covino (5:44)

The Bengals are 2 and 4 and guess what place they're in? Second. So unless some crazy happens. Unless some crazy shit happens after tonight, I don't know. If this happened in NFL history in a long time. The Steelers would be four games up in their division this early in the season, meaning it would take a monumental collapse for the Steelers not to win their division. Everyone in that division would have five losses, and the Steelers would be five and one. So Aaron Rodgers could give everyone a big kick in the nuts tonight if they win.

Rich Davis (6:17)

And that would be cool. I don't know who I'm rooting for, though.

Steve Covino (6:20)

Come on.

Rich Davis (6:20)

I like both guys. Steelers, you got Aaron Rodgers at 41, Joey Flacco at 40. And that got us thinking. Yeah, you got to tune in. You got to watch.

Steve Covino (6:31)

Battle the old Steelers.

Rich Davis (6:32)

Bengals, battle the old guys for your Thursday Night Football. And got us debating on what are the worst things about hitting your 40s that aren't death related and sort of health related.

Steve Covino (6:45)

Yeah, I actually wrote down no death or sad shit.

Rich Davis (6:48)

Right, Right.

Steve Covino (6:49)

Number one. I think it's a struggle. I have every couple weeks, every month, when I start getting more grays in the stubble or the sideburns. Do you become Mr. Gray? No. Play for Mr. Gray. Do you do a little Just for Men, or do you roll with the grays?

Rich Davis (7:02)

Your beard is weird, dude. I've been a spokesman since my 20s. You gotta dye that shit if you're a young man still. Especially if you're in the NFL. Because it's a young man's game.

Steve Covino (7:15)

Yeah, I always think that. Especially if you got black friends that are like 30, 40 with gray beards. It's like, dude, you are so young in life, you have it easier. Black guys could just dye it black. White guys have to match the color. It's a little trickier. It sucks.

Rich Davis (7:29)

So it's a matter of not Knowing what to do with the grays. But I'm here to tell you that there's no shame in dyeing it. In fact, I'm the guy in the box just for vatos, man. Get it now while it's hot. Dark brown.

Steve Covino (7:41)

Black people don't realize that if Covino didn't do some touch ups here and there, he would look like Cesar Millan, the dog whisperer.

Rich Davis (7:48)

Yeah, and you'd look like Leslie Nielsen. You look like Phil Donahue. So, yeah, not knowing what to do with the grays. A great indicator on your age, aside from your haircut and your grays, is your cut of jeans. And when you're in your 40s, you're like, man, do I want to, like, do what the young guys are doing? Like, you don't know what to do with the cut of your jeans, what to buy.

Steve Covino (8:11)

This is a great question. Fuck you, Spot. No, it really is. The worst things about being in your 40s, again, other than real, is not knowing what maybe jeans to wear. Because do you like, right now, baggier jeans are coming back for kids. Are you gonna start rocking big baggy.

Rich Davis (8:29)

Pants like a baggier fit? There's a compromise, right? I'm not wearing ballerina jeans anymore. You're not wearing your skinny jeans still, are you? Are you wearing carpenter jeans? Are you Bob Vila? You don't know what to do, so you gotta find a compromise. That's what I do.

Steve Covino (8:42)

Bob Feel is an old guy reference. How about Property Bros?

Rich Davis (8:45)

There you go.

Steve Covino (8:46)

How about Chip? Enjoy The Gaines Levi 500.

Rich Davis (8:50)

Regular fit. Nice bulge, by the way. Thank you. Thank you. And look, for the Halloween season, there you go. And how about we said nothing health related? But what about sports injuries? Like at the gym, if you're trying to maintain, you do got to take it ease.

Steve Covino (9:05)

You know what? Call me lame. Call me. Thanks, bud. Hey, Lame.

Rich Davis (9:09)

Isn't that your middle name?

Scott Barry Kaufman (9:10)

Yeah.

Rich Davis (9:11)

What's up, Lame?

Steve Covino (9:12)

I stopped doing mostly free weights and I'm doing more machines because I have too many friends that hit 40. And all of a sudden it's like, dude, I tore my pec or I got a tear in my bicep or my rotator cuff. I'm taking it way easier at the gym as far as, like, risky stuff. Like I'm not hopping on the bench press. Like, bro, spot me. I'm gonna try to max out. I feel like those days are done for me. Especially if you play pickup basketball, wreck softball, tennis. If you try to stay active, you don't need injuries.

Rich Davis (9:43)

Let Me ask you this as a softball guru, are you motoring down line to run out a number?

Steve Covino (9:49)

Yeah, but you know what I need to do now that I usually don't do a lot of stretching because I see so many guys come winter months, you know, guys that are late 30s, 40s, 50s, all of a sudden, ah, hamstring, lower back, something, some goes wrong.

Rich Davis (10:01)

By the way, is it true when you do turn 40 that all your pains glow red? Yes.

Steve Covino (10:05)

Like in an aspirin commercial.

Rich Davis (10:06)

Yeah, yeah. And your feet go into flames. That's why you need tough actin 10 actin. But seriously, sports injuries, because it's no longer really about the gains. I mean it could be, but for the most part you're just trying to maintain and you're not trying to get hurt while exercising. Right. How about this? You notice this on social media or if you have some sort of reunion or get together, you're on Facebook or you're at the bar, but mostly on social media. You go to your friends page or you see a photo post and you're like, damn, my friends are getting really old. My friend.

Steve Covino (10:40)

Who's that old guy?

Rich Davis (10:41)

Oh, that's the guy I graduated with. Or who's that Sea hag? Oh my God, that's a, a girl you liked in high school. That was the prom queen. Exactly. And if you don't know what we're talking about, then you're that guy. If this doesn't apply to you, then you're the old guy we're talking about. You're the guy that looks that way. So again, these are the worst things about hitting your 40s. Aren't these the girls from your high school class? Exactly. You're like, oh man. But then you start to realize, well, I guess that's a direct reflection of where I'm at. So again, because it's the battle of the old guys. Steelers, Bengals, tonight. What else do you want to add to the list?

Steve Covino (11:18)

I have one more. These are, these are things that you definitely see once you hit 40ish. Guys that used to be your heroes in sports are now, they're definitely retired now. You're seeing them pop up as like old coaches. And you're like, you're my hero. I always think of Dom Mattingly, who is your childhood hero. You know, the hitman. He looks like a weak ass Santa Claus. He looks like Santa Claus on a diet.

Rich Davis (11:41)

Yeah, there he is. Donnie Baseball. My hero. The real number 23. It happens. And then you start to realize, Rich, that you're older than most of the people in the league. Right. And now you're rooting for kids. Yeah.

Steve Covino (11:57)

When I'm rooting for Brock Purdy, I'm like, he could be my kid if I got my college girlfriend pregnant or something.

Rich Davis (12:02)

I'm like, you feel weird about rocking that jersey too? It's like you're rocking a kid's name on your, on your back. So you start doing that math and putting things in perspective. You're like, ah, so those are the fun but weak things. The worst things, like how old's about being 40 something. Volpe's in his 20s, early 20s. Yeah, he could be your kid. Exactly. Yeah. All these dudes, especially these young dudes.

Steve Covino (12:24)

In the NFL rooting for a guy half your age.

Rich Davis (12:26)

But it goes to show you the longevity and the round of applause we should be giving Aaron Rodgers, Joey Flacco for still having game in a young man's league.

Steve Covino (12:35)

And honestly, a guy like LeBron James who gets a lot of shit. But you know what? It is so relevant that, what, a week ago we found LeBron's gonna miss a couple weeks because of sciatica he's play. He's played so long that he has like a middle aged guy ailment. Like, ah, my sciatica is acting up.

Rich Davis (12:53)

Yeah. Hey, by the way, you know, on a positive note too, it's kind of cool. Joey Flacco had this really nice endearing family moment too recently where he's on the field with his family and part of the reason was he wanted to stick around long enough where his kids got to really appreciate what he did. And, and they're growing up now and they get to see dad do his thing and it's kind of cool to do, kind of cool to see. So props to him.

Ed Helms (13:17)

Basketball who still wore knee pads.

Steve Covino (13:38)

Yes.

Ed Helms (13:38)

Ed Helms (13:47)

Angela and Jenna, I am so psyched you're here.

Grainger Announcer (13:51)

Ed Helms (13:55)

Grainger Announcer (13:59)

I forgot whose podcast we were doing.

Ed Helms (14:02)

Scott Barry Kaufman (15:19)

I'm Dr. Scott Barry Kaufman, host of the Psychology Podcast. Here's a clip from an upcoming conversation about exploring human potential. I was going to schools to try to teach kids these skills and I get eye rolling from teachers or I who would be like, it's easier to punch someone in the face when you think about emotion regulation. Like, you're not going to choose an adaptive strategy which is more effortful to use unless you think there's a good outcome as a result of it. If it's going to be beneficial to you because it's easy to say like, like you go blank yourself, right? It's easy. It's easy to just drink the extra beer. It's easy to ignore, to suppress seeing a colleague who's bothering you and just like walk the other way. Avoidance is easier. Ignoring is easier. Denial is easier. Drinking is easier. Yelling, screaming is easy. Complex problem solving, meditating, you know, takes effort. Listen to the Psychology podcast on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts.

Rich Russians Podcast Host (16:18)

The Rich Russians Falling out of Windows podcast is back. Sad Oligarch Season 2 Since we left you in 2023, after season one, many politically motivated Russian millionaires have continued to die in suspicious circumstances. We dig Deeper into these odd deaths, which include everything from mushroom poisoning and mysterious heart attacks to window clumsiness and suicide by decapitation. One thing we have found since we started back in 2022 is the information on the suspicions of as deaths has become much harder to find. Not just that, it seems as if state controlled media in Russia is being utilized to purposely confuse and contradict the reporting that gets put out. As you can probably imagine, season two gets very weird. Listen to Sad Oligarch on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts now.

Steve Covino (17:19)

Every week we started a new feature that is really sweeping the world. Oh yeah, I would say nation, but it goes beyond that.

Rich Davis (17:26)

It goes way beyond that.

Steve Covino (17:27)

It's they might be ass.

Rich Davis (17:29)

It's a list you don't want to be on. And you know, we debate it. We put our heads together and like, you know who might be ass? I'm sad to say this, but might be the Buffalo Bills. Oh, no. Yeah, four and two, but haven't looked dominant. They've lost two in a row. And now they got to let this simmer in the bye week. They got to sit around feeling like losers for another week until they take on the Panthers in Week 8. And the Panthers are pretty good.

Steve Covino (17:56)

Did you google sad Josh Allen?

Rich Davis (17:59)

I googled sad, pouty Josh Allen.

Steve Covino (18:03)

Things just aren't working out.

Rich Davis (18:05)

I mean, listen, even Josh Allen's not putting up good fantasy numbers, good stats for the most part. Is he washed? Is he done? No, not at all. I'm not saying that. We're saying the team might be asked right now.

Steve Covino (18:17)

Yeah, well, hey, every good team goes through their highs and lows. Every good super bowl team goes through a couple weeks where they get their ass whooped. Yeah.

Rich Davis (18:25)

But back to back, Patriots, Falcons really dominated them. And you're like, man, are the Falcons way better than we thought or are the Buffalo Bills?

Steve Covino (18:36)

We're gonna go over that in our picks in a little bit. But who is your candidate for ass this week? Hit us up.

Rich Davis (18:42)

I'm so sad I'm sitting on the field. I'm Josh Allen.

Steve Covino (18:44)

I'm Josh. You know who else might be Josh?

Rich Davis (18:47)

That guy Joe on Love is Blind. He might be asked, bro, he is such a. But he's not more ass than the Buffalo Bills. I'm just saying he might be ass.

Steve Covino (18:55)

If you're watching Edmund might be asked.

Rich Davis (18:57)

Edmund might be asked, what about the.

Steve Covino (18:59)

Girl in Love is blind that owns a hair salon, but she got whack ass hair.

Rich Davis (19:02)

Oh, she's she's. You know what? She's the most ass to me personally, that girl. Yeah, I'm glad that. Well, I don't want to give it away. Love is blind. Enjoy.

Steve Covino (19:10)

Yeah. Now listen, we are two weeks in a day away from Halloween. Yeah, I saw that. Next week is when McDonald's does their boo buckets. My kids, waste of time, waste of money, but my kids always want those.

Rich Davis (19:23)

Spooky season begins. Well earlier and earlier every year. The decorations are at Home Depot in September.

Steve Covino (19:30)

Halloween decorating has come a long way. When we were kids, what you might have had on your front lawn, a bag of leaves that look like a pumpkin.

Rich Davis (19:37)

Yeah.

Steve Covino (19:37)

Now you look on your neighborhood, this 40 foot skeletons on everyone's front, it's.

Rich Davis (19:41)

Saying we have our pumpkins out. I'm rocking my skull here for the season. And you're probably going out this weekend. Looking around. You're hitting this Halloween shop spirit. Halloween Rogers center is next. That's my prediction. But you're going shopping for the kids or for yourself. So we're going to give you the update on what's trending this Halloween as far as costumes. Okay, Spot, did you have something to say? I was going to say I was going to work the other day and I saw a line around the block of adults. Adults waiting for the Halloween mini totes at Trader Joe's. Really? Okay. See? Yeah, people get crazy about it. So we're just going to give you some ideas, not just kids, in case you're going out this weekend, do a little shopping. We're going to start off with our yearly reminder. And that is maybe you should go this weekend because you don't want to get left with generic baseball guy, which is the weakest shit ever. You don't want to go there. And all they have left is generic baseball player or pirate in a bag. But generic baseball player especially because if you're going to be a baseball player, like splurge and buy an actual jersey. The actual pants.

Steve Covino (20:47)

But that would also insinuate that like you're a grown man that doesn't own a jersey.

Rich Davis (20:52)

Right? No, seriously. Because there's nothing worse than generic baseball players.

Steve Covino (20:56)

Who are you for Halloween? I'm baseball guy.

Rich Davis (20:58)

I love this baseball guy because he has a like a patch of a baseball. What are you, a little schoolboy? That's the weakest shit ever.

Steve Covino (21:05)

What team you on? Oh, the baseballs, I swear.

Rich Davis (21:10)

And I've got as an adult. And nothing screams like you're the lamest guy ever or you waited last minute than that it's like, what are you? Generic baseball guy? Get out of here. Nine men out. You're the ninth man out. Who are you weak? Are you on the Black Sox? Get out of here. So I hate that.

Steve Covino (21:26)

Now my daughter and all her friends. If you got kids, it's clear you're gonna see a lot of K Pop Demon Hunters, so prepare for that. That's like, all the rage. Kids love this movie.

Rich Davis (21:36)

I mean, it's all the buzz, huh? The number one thing out there. And if you want to maybe even butter up the kids, let's say you're just staying home, handed out candy this year. Kids would love that. Honestly, if you're trying to be festive and stay involved, that's the number one thing. If you don't know what it is, you must not know any kids. Now, K Pop Demon Hunters, a movie.

Steve Covino (21:57)

That'S coming out next month, but I feel like, you know, you could be any of the characters because it ties to the wizard of Oz. Wicked's gonna be a big one, so you'll see a lot of Wicked stuff.

Rich Davis (22:04)

It comes out in November, right?

Steve Covino (22:06)

Correct.

Rich Davis (22:06)

Yeah, the second part. Have you known his girlfriend? And speaking of wizard of Oz is still playing at the Sphere in Vegas, if you want to check that out. But, yeah, very popular one. There's a few couples ideas that are gonna be very popular again this year is Taylor and Travis. That's gonna be all the buzz once again because they're still in the news.

Steve Covino (22:27)

Taylor and Travis. Maybe Madison Beer and Herbert or Haley Steinfeld and Josh Allen. Pick your celebrity couple.

Rich Davis (22:33)

Famous couple is the Coldplay couple. And you're going to see a lot of that as well. The Coldplay couple.

Steve Covino (22:38)

If you're an older guy that, you know, people just going to get a, you know, short sleeve, button down. Yeah, people are doing it.

Rich Davis (22:44)

Shout out to Wednesday on Netflix. Lot of Wednesdays from the Adams family. And I think we're going to see a big rivalry. Just a prediction, but it's definitely one of the trending costumes this year. It's Phillies Karen. Right? Phillies Karen. But coming up the ranks, coming up the charts with a bullet, look out for Phillies. I mean, Brewers Karen. Brewers Karen's on the rise, so they might be battling it out.

Steve Covino (23:15)

Karen, the hair, though, and the glasses just rock a fill. This is. This is a great one. And I feel like you're gonna see a lot of this on the east coast, for sure.

Rich Davis (23:22)

Yeah. But just recently, Brewers Karen is going viral. Look out for her and look out for those costumes this Halloween and don't.

Steve Covino (23:30)

Wait last minute like you said, because then you end up being a shitty, as you always say, pirate in a bag that's missing the hook.

Rich Davis (23:36)

Right? And if you're gonna be any of those, be the best version of those, right? You don't want to be like, oh, yeah, there was two Phillies, Karen's. But one was really good. One sucked. Be the really good one.

Steve Covino (23:47)

Yeah. And. And I always say this to my wife when we would dress up more.

Rich Davis (23:50)

One was like, Sally Jesse Raphael, I think. No, that was for these. Karen before. Here's Brewers. Karen Brewers.

Steve Covino (23:57)

Oh, she's the best.

Rich Davis (23:58)

She's on the come up.

Steve Covino (23:59)

Oh, is that the woman that was like, I'm gonna call ice.

Rich Davis (24:02)

Yes. Oh, yeah, man.

Steve Covino (24:05)

So many Karen, so little time. I know, but I. I said to my wife years ago, because, you know, we used to go all out. Now our kids do. My wife loves the trunk or treat and all that. If someone has to ask what you are, it's a shitty costume.

Rich Davis (24:19)

Exactly.

Steve Covino (24:19)

It should be very easily identifiable. You shouldn't be, oh, what are you? If you have to say, what are you? You. You missed the point.

Rich Davis (24:26)

Well, pause on that, too, because we still, I think, have two more over promised before Halloween.

Steve Covino (24:31)

So we'll go over all the rules. The rules. Okay.

Rich Davis (24:33)

We'll go over all the rules.

Ed Helms (24:34)

All right.

Steve Covino (24:34)

Well, right now we're gonna go over the bets that are gonna make you cash money. Cash. I want to start with a teaser bet. A teaser bet for the ages. I'm calling this the more important than you think six point teaser. Now, these are teams that you think like, oh, they're in a decent position. But these wins would really prove to everyone, like, are they for real? Because right now, the patriots sit at 4 and 2.

Rich Davis (25:03)

They're not as ass as we thought.

Steve Covino (25:05)

And they're playing at Tennessee. And Tennessee, even their quarterback says they're ass. So if the Patriots beat Tennessee, they're 5 and 2. And with Buffalo looking vulnerable, could the Patriots stay in the mix for the rest of the season at five and two? That would be a hell of a first seven games, right? And Tennessee is ass. That's a six and a half point spread. Take that down to minus half a point. So now you have the Patriots just needing to beat Tennessee. Now the team with the weirdest record in all of football. They had a bye week and a tie week. The packers are three one and one and you're like, what? What? Three one and one. Other teams are five and one, four and two one and five. Three, one and one. So Jordan, love Micah Parsons. Sometimes you forget, oh, they have him. They are playing at Arizona. I think the Cardinals stink. I think the packers coming off a bye week, are going to be hungry. It's six and a half. They just got to beat Arizona. And it's not like Arizona has a great home field advantage. So you just need the Patriots and the packers to win. That's it. And I think they will. So I like that in the teaser bet, Patriots and Packers. Now, next, I want to do a little parlay. And this parlay I'm calling back to life, back to reality. I want to first say I love what Daniel Jones is doing. I love Indianapolis offensive coordinator, head coach. Everyone's delivering. Jonathan Taylor's having a career year. Daniel Jones has been resurrected.

Rich Davis (26:41)

I'm feeling a big butt coming up.

Steve Covino (26:43)

And I know you like a big butt. They're playing the Chargers, and I think that last week Indianapolis snuck by and one. I think they've been exposed a little bit. I think you're going to have losses on the schedule. Daniel Jones is not going 15 and 1.

Rich Davis (26:59)

So I think on the flip side of that, if they prove you wrong, you got some ass kissing to do. I do, I do.

Rich Russians Podcast Host (27:04)

But.

Steve Covino (27:04)

But I think the Chargers win. Moneyline. No points for it. It's like one and a half. So just Moneyline, Chargers beat Indianapolis and the other one, they've won three in a row. Why not make it four? Carolina, who is showing signs of life and youth, and their coach seems to have a lot of good energy right. In the Jets. And I just think the jets are so bad, they'll just continue to lose. So Moneyline, parlay. Both of these teams just need to win. Carolina, Chargers, let's go.

Rich Davis (27:32)

Well, you got me fired up for the Chargers, Colts now, because I feel like that's a statement game, then good game, right? So I'm excited.

Steve Covino (27:40)

And one more, and you could say it's a homer pick. I'm calling this the toy with my emotions straight bit. Brock Purdy appears to be like, he might be in line to come back, right? And Kittle, Kittle, we're. We're getting some people back. The Niners lost Fred Warner, and at that point, I said, all right, this isn't the season, but you win this week, you're five and two. But with no one being that great. Yeah, everybody's hurt, but they're playing prime time. Everybody's hurt. This year.

Rich Davis (28:11)

This year in the NFL, 49ers are.

Steve Covino (28:13)

Playing at home Sunday Night Football. So it's the primetime game against a team that I'm so confused by, the Falcons. The Falcons just beat Buffalo, but the week before so they lost 30 nothing to Carolina. So I'm so intrigued. I feel like Robert Salah is going to prepare to stop that offense. And I think that with Purdy Kittle some of the guys getting healthier, the 49ers can win by a field goal at home. So this is the toy with my emotions straight bet because I think the Niners will win and give me some false hope that all is okay in the Bay Area. But I don't know without Warner.

Rich Davis (28:45)

And you've been doing good. You've been on fire. And I'll tell you what, you did an extra great job up this week with your picks because you got me fired up for some of these games.

Steve Covino (28:52)

So there you go. Screenshot it. Screenshot. Those are the picks. Enjoy and we will see you guys back on Fox Sports Radio tomorrow. Have a great Thursday night. Enjoy old man.
