COVINO and Rich FSR on YouTube. So, Rich, can we start it off by saying I'm really, really torn right now. Lying naked on the floor. I'm like Natalie Imbruglia. I'm like Creedstep of Creed. I'm torn. Torn. I'm torn. Great song. Because I'm an AL east fan, I'm a Yankees fan, and I can't be the only guy that feels this way. So I don't like the Blue Jays. The Yankees lose. The Yankees lose. I love that. Yeah, that was great. They are a great and scrappy team. So I don't hate on their, you know, game of baseball and how they play the game. I just don't like them as a Yankees fan. But then again, the Dodgers beat the Yankees. But I also live in la, so I am so torn right now and I'm wondering on behalf of everybody, should I be leaning towards the Blue Jays because the Dodgers beat the Yankees last year. Well, the Blue Jays beat them this year. Yeah, I know, but the Dodgers are so good that maybe they need to be humbled like the iron chic. Maybe it's the Blue Jays time. Maybe you for the underdog because they are the underdogs in this series. You know, maybe we root for our, our maple slurping poutine loving floppy headed hockey loving Canadians. You know, maybe we root for the Blue Jays. I am so torn right now because they're both hateable. And George Springer, you know, he's a former Astro. I wasn't a big fan of that guy either, but he had a huge moment last night. I can only tip my Yankee hat to that moment. It was so clutch. I'm so torn. I'm. I'm a. I'm a ball of emotions. Mixed emotions here on the show. I mean, grab your Tim Hortons, grab some cheesies or ketchup chips, and I say root for the Blue Jays if I'm you. However, I think the factor here is a man that was the hero last night. George Springer, I said to Danny and Big Mike, who runs this place, who are both big Dodgers fans, I go, you guys, over this whole George Springer was on the Astros, like, eight years ago, and the cheating and the garbage. Garbage cans. And I know Altuve is the face of that, but George Springer was part of the core of that team. Nobody forgot about that. I mean, does that still hold the layer to you where it's like, Springer against the Dodgers, he's got one of the most punchable faces in all of baseball. I think we always will. Yeah, he does. He definitely does. But we also have to acknowledge the fact that when it comes to clutch and big moments in postseason, he's one of those names that can't be left out of the mix. He's come through too many times, and you got to give him his props. But you could also say the Mariners, not that they kind of blew it, but knowing that George Springer is so clutch, is it automatic that you pitch to the guy, and not only do you pitch to the guy with an open base, it's the same guy that faced him the night before. When they had their relief pitcher, they had Munoz on the bench ready to go. So it's like, man, did they blow that? Was that bad management, or did just Springer come through and that's the end of the game? And that's just how it is, you know? How do you look at that? That again, when I say I'm torn, I am so torn because I was surprised they pitched to him in that moment. They left. I think it was a left. A high sinker right there, right there for him to tee off on. And he, you know, he did it. You got to give him credit for that. But still, why did they pitch to him and why did they leave Bizzardo in there? Bizarro faced this dude twice already. That was bizarre, though. No, but bizardo like that. It was bizard, though. You know, you got to rethink your jokes, making little moves. And Springer already knew his stuff. He already saw it the past few days, so that could have been a mistake in itself, but he still capitalized on it. So there's a couple layers here. Layers to George Springer. Put some respect on his name. But is it in your mind still a cheating name that got away with something because ended the Mariners just blow it or did he win it? Like, how do you see this? That Astros team? You taste. It's still a bad taste in your mouth from anyone affiliated with that Astros team. And you're a Yankees fan, Danny. You and People around here at Fox Sports that live in LA are Dodgers fans. So the two team, the two teams that I guess felt the wrath of that Astros team the most were you two. So you tell me, are you mad because to me, George Springer is a Blue Jay. That's the past. Ancient history. He's proven he's a star or you still butthurt a George Springer? Yeah, I don't think mad or. But hurts the right term. It's just like a bad taste that's left in your mouth. Is it a breakup that you're not over type feeling like it's more of like what could have been, you know, had that not gone down the way it did. But do you feel like he doesn't deserve this? No, I feel like he deserved to be punished, as did his teammates back then. And they never had to serve any sort of punishment. And so that's what leaves the bad taste. They got away Mike Scott free. It's Mike Scott because he's a former. And like Covino said, you got to give the guy respect. He's. He's a great clutch player. He keeps proving that. But dating back to that cheating Astros team, that's. That's never for us. That's. That's never going to go away. We're never going to forget that. All of these things are true. Rich Enough time. It's just a matter of what. What Way stronger in your heart. Kavino. Enough time will pass while fans forget. Because fans get older, fans die young, fans are born. Like there's going to be a time where you just look back that'll never. You're trying to erase like something that actually happened. I'm never going to forget. Doesn't go away. It's in the books. Everybody knows. Everyone that was alive knows and even people who are still young. Your little son will know about this scandal. It'll be a little note, but great because my son, who's 5 and his little T ball buddies, I guarantee as they become teenagers and 20 year olds, none of them are going to be like, yeah, and like Altuve and Springer and the cheating Astros, that's going to be just a story to them and maybe a highlight. And man, maybe what were they banging on trash cans like they won't even care. So I'm saying he teed off on that sinker so hard, I wouldn't be surprised if he knew what pitch was coming last night. You know, there's so many ways to look at this, but I'm. I'm really not. Yeah, they Were they. Were. They were tapping on maple jugs? You know, I think Big Mike, who runs this place, he has tons of wisdom. I actually do agree with him when I think of the cheating Astros. George Springer, for as clutch as he always was with that team, he isn't the guy I think of. It's Altuve. I think what he did last night was big for the Blue Jays, and I sort of associate him now as, hey, he's a big moment guy. And he proved it again with Toronto. If he beats the Dodgers in the World Series, meaning if Springer is an influential player, gets a couple base hits or home runs and key spots, and they somehow upset the Dodgers, is the. The thought of, like. Well, Springer was. I mean, was a cheater and he knew it was coming. Is that in the past? Do we. Does this look like a chance? I don't know. How do those. I was going to say, Rich. How do those two things cancel each other out? They do, because what have you done for different seasons, it's different teams. What have you done for me lately? Do, do, do, do, do. Dude, it doesn't change the fact they're two separate events. He had a big moment last night. He was also part of a cheating team, although I don't really make him the face of that organization. I look at Altuve as that guy, but I also think in the same breath that it was a bad move pitching to the guy. I'm not saying you walk him, but you pitch around him. You don't lay a meatball, as your mom would say, Rich, right in his zone after he's senior sinker two days in a row. I think that was a bad rookie mistake last night, and the Blue Jays reaped all the benefits. The crowd erupted, and you have a heartbroken Seattle team and fan base out there that deserved a little more than that, man. I think that's a tough way to lose. You had the win. You had it right there in front of you, and you heard the screams and you heard the emotion in the locker room afterward. It's not AI. It's not fake. But when you see the Mariners being interviewed, you hear dudes moaning in sorrow and in heartbreak. In the locker room, you hear thrown men. You see Cal Raleigh, who had the most magical season, maybe of all time. You see him in tears because it hurts so much, all because you pitched to George Springer. I'm not sure that was the best move, but he came through. Let me. Let me be trivia boy for a second. Sure. With that home run, your dude George Springer. You love him, Danny. You love him. Kavino. George Springer is now tied for third all time in postseason home runs. Can you round out the top five off the top of the Dome? Just throw a couple names. Bernie B. Williams is in there. Bernie's number five. Derek Jeter's got to be in there. Jeter just misses the top five. Oh, he does? Yeah. Number five, Bernie with 22. Springer has 23. So he's now tied with Big Poppy. Big Poppy, not on the list. Okay, well, how about you just tell me? Altuve is on the list and Manny Ramirez, number one. Manny has 20. Manny has 29. Altuve has 27. And then Kyle Schwaber tied with Schwaber and Springer have 23. That's incredible. Incredible. Two Astros. It's easy to hit 23 when you know a pitch is coming. At least 22 of them, you know which or juiced out of your mind. Yeah. But, you know, at the same time, I. Again, this is why I'm torn. Dan Byer. People come here sometimes for the answers. I'm really saying I don't know how to feel because he came through in a really big moment that was as clutch as it gets. Right. So I want to hate on him, but what I saw was impressive. And I love how he handled himself in the post game when he immediately. And again, they're media trained and he's been there, done that, and he's very polished in the postseason. But everything he said was dead on awesome. I mean, he thanked the country, too. He thanked the country. He put his teammates first. He put. You know, when he said he thinks about the at bat, he thinks about the players that got on base to allow him to do that. He put his team before himself every time he was interviewed, so it makes him that much more likable. Or you could say he fuck baloney. He has to be that guy because everybody sort of hates him from the Astros days. It was a big moment. I'm very torn, and as a Yankees fan, I'm especially torn. What are your thoughts? It was pretty awesome to see and pretty awesome to hear the Blue Jays fans erupt. Even though I'm a Yankees fan. I didn't have a dog in the fight last night, and I don't have a dog in the fight. You usually have dog fights. You hanging out with Michael vick in the 2000s? No, no, I do not. Completely derailed with us. I wasn't cheering for anyone last night. However, I also can't stand it when people take sports and try to Compare it to real life. Because I think it's probably better in life sometimes to just forget something, to forgive something. It's not the case in sports because sports is usually a small amount of time. There's a small amount of time in George Springer's life that he's going to spend as a professional baseball player. But it's that portion, that cheating scandal that I think does label you and continue to label you. He went through, I think, didn't he have a stuttering problem? He had a speech issue that he has overcome. You mentioned his speech last night in speaking. Everybody loves him now. And it's easy to say that was in the past, but the players were never punished. He, Altuve and others. And to me, I just, I can't get over it. I can't get past it. And it's not different than a steroid situation or someone else issues with those guys. I still think that you should have an issue with someone like Springer. Yeah. You can't erase the past in sports. It's different. As fans, we are exactly fanatical. Right? Like, this is not like I forgive my buddy for doing something dumb or, you know, I forgive my, the girl I'm dating for, you know, whatever. That's different. I agree. There's something about sports. You're a fan. There's a different level of, like, I don't have to forgive these people. Like your uncle that was drunk at Thanksgiving or something. Sure. It's, you know, something is something is somebody cuts you off in traffic. Hey, probably better just to let it go. And as you said, you could take it with family issues. Hey, if this neighbor's been a jerk for so long, maybe it's just better for your own life to just move on, not worry about it. But that's where sports in real life aren't the same. And I think that's. I understand why people who were against the Astros and against El Tuve and George Springer probably didn't celebrate last night. You know, it also is easy for me as a Mets fan to be like, guys, get over it. Who cares? But I promise you that if the Astros got in the way of the Mets, had my Mets lost to the Astros in the World Series in 2017, I'm sure I would be singing a different tune. Danny G. And if the Astros beat the Yankees and I was a Yankees fan along the way, I'm only like, who cares? Because it didn't affect me. And unfortunately, it's how so many people feel. Right. If it doesn't affect me it doesn't matter. And it wasn't like an alleged thing. Everybody knows what happened. I mean, it's. It's factual. We all saw it. We all heard it. We all witnessed it. And by the way, Dan Beyer, great point. It does make George Springer a little more likable, too. He overcame his stutter and became the spokesperson for the Stuttering association for the Young. So giving back to the kids, stepping up in big moments, putting his teammates first, he sort of. He should have stuttered by saying back in the day. No, I'm saying, look at, look at. That's great about that story about him. But like Byer said, these guys never came out and admitted any wrongdoing. They never got punished. And we live in a society, especially in sports, where we love to see a comeback. We love even. Even your guy Pettit. What did he do? He handled things the right way. This is why I did it. And we forgave him and those guys. And like Byer said, this is kind of like the steroids issue, because we do not forget. We're like elephants with sports. No, that's true. And so I want to like them. They didn't take enough accountability. Yeah. And it is hard. I wanted to cheer last night. I thought that was a great moment. But in the back of my mind, I kept thinking, oh, God, but I can't get over it. But. And I don't want to be like that, but I couldn't help it. So are we cheering for the Blue Jays or the Dodgers? If the Mariners ended up winning, you knew the entire country was rooting for the Mariners. Unless, of course, you're a Dodgers fan. That's just a fact. That's just how it was. Because it was like, this is going to be their first time ever. This is a nice team, a great story. However, this is the Blue Jays first time back in the World Series in 32 years. You got this Springer thing again. They shouldn't have pitched to him. I'm a Yankees fan. I'm torn. What are your thoughts? 87799 on Fox. Regardless, which is one of my favorite big words, Regardless. Regardless of anything to come through in that moment. My goodness. That is the reason why we watch sports. That is the reason why baseball has been more electric than ever before. Or in years, I should say in years. Because that was the timing of it, the moment. Everything about it was just. My goodness. I had to stand up out of my chair. I was like, I can't believe it. Is it true, by the way, that George Springer was the kid in Billy Madison that Billy Madison said tutu today, Junior. I'm telling him. He said that. I was gonna say it's an interesting guy. Right. Because you're right. He said everything right. He seems like a everything right. Yeah. He's on that forgiveness campaign. Hey, Rich, what were you doing, though? Because last night you had Lion, Seahawks, you had those games on. Were you going back and forth the whole time? I'll be honest, I watched mostly baseball. Yeah. Same top. And I was going back and forth, checking on football. I feel like baseball. Dan Byer, Seahawks had a great control of that game for the most part. Maybe it appeared I wanted to watch the Buccaneers, Lions, but I felt the Lions were running away with it. And I was like, I'm just keeping it on. Yeah. I'll be honest. The Lions did what we said yesterday. They asserted that I listen, Baker, you're awesome Bucks. You know, you're a good team. You'll be there. But the Lions made a case last night that, like, they could still be the best in the nfc. Yeah. Once they were running with the game, I left it on baseball just to see what happened. And when Springer came through like that, I was just like, man, that. That's the difference right there. Those big moment players. And he's one of those guys. But he was also a cheater. So it's not about forgiving, but can you root for them moving forward against your Dodgers? Think about it. It all begins Friday night. World Series baseball. And not Only that, Dodgers minus 220 in Vegas to win the series. So Dodgers are a significant favorite. They got their hands full, man. And that's the other reason that you might want to root for them. The Dodgers are so damn good. So you got the World Series on Friday, you got foosball heating up. You got more games on Thursday, and you got the NBA starting tonight. It's so wrong, it's crazy. I'll tell you why I'm against this. Why? You know what? I have a thought on this. We'll talk about it next. NBA, total misstep. Total misstep. I don't get it. I don't understand it. What do you mean? I'll explain next. So hang tight. We'll talk some mlb, some football. Oh, no. Yeah. And of course, the NBA starts today. Great. More Cavino and Rich next right here on Fox Sports Radio. Now, Rich, I'm so sorry I interrupted your DraftKings comments before.

In our new season, I'm talking to people like Anil Dash, an OG entrepreneur and writer who refuses to be cynical about the Internet. I love tech. You know, I've been a nerd my whole life, but it does have to be for something. Like, it's not just for its own sake. It's a fascinating exploration about the power of the Internet for both good and bad. They use WhatsApp to get the price of rice at the market that is often 12 hours away.

Because I think so many times on podcasts and radio people have like a BS opinion, even if it like they don't even know the subject matter. I like that you're asking, like, I don't know how to feel. We're not some. I think it's BS when everyone feels like they have to have a hot take no matter what. Like, you don't. If you tell me your feelings are like, I hate the Blue Jays, but the Dodgers, again, I get the. I get the sentiment because I feel like so many people feel that way. Yeah, I want both of them to lose, but at the same time, yeah, it would be cool to see the Blue Jays beat the Dodgers. Dodgers beat the Yankees last year. I live in Los Angeles. That's another factor. I'm going through the feedback. TM10 says, hey, goofy. Calls me Goofy. Oh, hey, thanks, man. Hey, Goofy, it's okay to not root for anybody, but that's not fun, right? It's like. Here's the thing. I gotta give the Scarletta brothers some props here. The Scarletta brothers, These two jabronis from the East Coast. You ever see these twins? They were on the circle, I think. On the circle. Anyway, they're like viral baseball fans. They made this video rant of a Blue Jays. You scumbags. Not that I'm rooting for you, but I'm rooting for you. Like, go get him. Go get how I feel. I don't like you. I'm not rooting for you. But I kind of want you to beat the Dodgers, right? Because they are the new evil empire. They are too good. But I also live in la. Maybe I should embrace that. But they beat a cat. Get out of here. But then I look at it this way. Evil Empire, Louisiana. I see what you did there, but isn't there a party? Like, I don't know. Then I. Then I start to be soft and I'm like, well, you know, Danny and Bo and a lot of the guys that work here, they'd be happy if the Dodgers win. I'm like, you know what? They don't care if the Mets win, and I'm happy. So. That's correct. They don't. They don't. They don't. In fact, they may chuckle when my team loses. Right. My most surprising thing in working with Covino and Rich over these last couple of years of how supportive you are of other people's teams. Because. And we've talked about this, so I'm telling Kavina right now. Do this Dan Buyer rule. Don't have a cheering. Don't cheer for a team going in. Just sit down and watch the game and let nature take its. Let it. Yeah, I'll figure it out right it's like a fight night. You figure it out. All these fighters by round four or five, you know who you're rooting for. Just let it take its course. I think it's going to be the Blue Jays because they're the underdogs. You know, who is fighting, who is likable. And if I wasn't a Dodgers fan, I would root for him. Vlad Jr. Yeah, but he's talked so much smack about. So that's why you don't like him. But I mean, I like watching him play as a baseball fan. Thank you, buddy. As a baseball fan. We've all seen the kid grow up and that is a cool story. He's playing with a lot of heart. Seeing him as a little boy. The pictures you're seeing on social media, it's great, man. I think by the fifth inning, Covino of Game 1, Cavino is going to be like, baby, want to get some poutine? Like, yeah, yeah, I got a little craving for it. You know what, Dan? I'm from Jersey. We call those disco fries. So I don't ever want poutine fries. Disco fries. So your thoughts? Fox Sports Radio Nation. And of course we got to talk some NBA because Rich, I'm just can't handle it. Florida and John, what's up? What's up, man? Your thoughts on George Springer? Is he off the hook? Do you still think cheater? What do you think, man? No, you guys, listen, I'm going to take another spin at this, right? Yeah. He was on the Houston team when they cheated. So give the Dodgers a little redemption for a little revenge. Where's this twist, right? They. They can't play Houston to get revenge. So you get revenge on this jabroni. I love that. You know, he's not the whole team. Yeah, like in my mind I'm like, I do this. But he was a big part of that Astros team and he was a big part of them being in the World Series this year. Ah, this Blue Jays team hasn't, you know, been back to the World Series in 32 years. 32 years. And by the way, Boba, how can you not root for them? They're not even in our country. Sam, here's another layer for another all the Canada's got. Boba Shet announced in the celebration yesterday that he'd be back for the World Series even though he's an incredible player. It's like, do you want to mess with the chemistry now that they've been rolling like that? That's another thought. Might as well Bring back Dave Stieb while they're out of here. He's a legend. Yo, I heard John Olerud and his helmet are waiting on Stanley. So Boba Shet is ready to play. Your thoughts on the matchup? It goes down Friday. How do you feel about it? Who do we got next? Pete. That's Pete. Hey, Pete in Oklahoma. You're on Cavino. Listen, the only reason to root, and I'm not telling you what to do, the only reason to root for the Blue Jays and I'm a die hard Yankees fan, is Don Mattingly. That's the only reason. There's your answer. So glad you brought that up. Don Mattingly, been in the part of Major League Baseball since the early 80s and this is his first World Series visit as a coach, a manager, a player, anything. So as a Yankees fan, while you do hate the Blue Jays and the Dodgers have burnt you as a child and as an adult last year you might have to pull for Donnie Baseball. I mean, how could you not? Hitman. Who's more baseball than that guy and who's more deserving than Don? He waved to you and your dad in traffic in 1988. He really did. True story. But you know, I'm getting more feedback. Jay Gaeta. Jay Geta hit me up and he goes, dude, for all your Dodgers friends and family, you live in la and Rich. That goes to you and your kid and all their friends who love the Dodgers. My kids are like, of course, dad, the Dodgers. And you know, that's like their team sort of now, unfortunately. But for the rest of the country, it's not as clear either. It would have been clear if the Mariners won. You're rooting for the Mariners? Unless you live in la. Yeah, with the Blue Jays and George Springer and again Vladdy. He's not that likable in my opinion. You know your thoughts at Covino and Rich. Either way, it all goes down on Friday. And you better believe we're tuning in. We'll be talking about it. And now we got to start getting ready for the NBA as well. We don't. And I'll explain why we don't have to get ready for the NBA. I have a gripe with the whole league. I also on the anniversary, it's, you know, it's back to the future day when Doc Emmett Brown said, let's go to the future. Marty, it's not you, it's your kids. And they went to 2015. Isn't it wild to think the future is 10 years ago? Think about that. For a second. So we're going to go back to the last time the Blue Jays won and we'll take our little Cavino Rich Fox Sports Radio time machine to 1993 all coming up right here. So let's go to Dan by for an update. DB what's doing buddy? A lot going on in the world of sports and we start in New York where the jets are reportedly going to make a change at quarterback. Justin Fields, the starter for the first portion of the season was replaced last week weekend by Tyrod Taylor for the second half. Head coach Aaron Glenn making that move now ESPN is reporting that Taylor is going to start Week eight in Cincinnati against the Bengals. This on the heels of the comments made earlier today by jets owner Woody Johnson, who gave head coach Aaron Glenn a vote of confidence. But not so much for Fields as a quarterback. It looks like he's turning around parts of it. You know, it's hard when you have a quarterback with a rating that we've got. You know, I mean he has the ability but something just is not jiving. But if you look at any head coach of the quarterback like that, you're going to see similar results if you go across the league. That Woody from Woody Johnson earlier today, but the jets likely turning to Torod Taylor according to a report from espn. Vikings will start Carson Wentz at quarterback on Thursday night in LA against the Chargers. JJ McCarthy still not ready because of that high ankle sprain. McCarthy will be the emergency quarterback in that showdown. The Vikings did open the 21 day practice window for running back Aaron Jones who was on IR edge. Rusher Brandon Graham has ended his return retirement to play again for the Philadelphia Eagles. Giants Release kicker Jude McAtamney after McAtamney missed two extra points in their loss to the Broncos this past weekend. Speaking of the Broncos, New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson responded via X to comments indirectly made about him by Broncos head coach Sean Payton after Sunday's game. Wilson today posted on social media quote, classless but not surprised. Didn't realize you're still bounty hunting 15 plus years later through the media. That from Russell Wilson Belichick, one of 12 coaches that have moved to the next round of possible induction into the Pro Football hall of Fame. Angels are hiring Kurt Suzuki as their new manager. He spent the previous three seasons in the Angels front office and tonight the NBA's regular season begins. Rockets and Thunder 7:30 Eastern warriors and Lakers 10 Eastern guys, back to you. Yeah Dan by that story is a little juicy. Let's talk about that a little bit next Hour. Because when Russ responds on social media, and it's very clear, I mean, we all knew there was no love lost between him and Sean Payton. But now when they're taking little jabs at each other, I think it's investigating. Yes, we should investigate a little bit. And by the way, shout out to John at the dmv. That just helped me. I put my phone down and he listened to that whole last segment and I picked it up while you. While you were doing your update. Like, I'm so sorry. He goes, really good show. I'm gonna. Oh, nice. I go download the pod. Cavito and Rich, did he say he really vibes with your co host? He goes, that guy, he's all right, but he's like, you're right, Don Mattingly. We should be rooting for that guy. The poor guy. Get this. Our show must have been so compelling. I put him on hold. I put DMV on hold. Then he goes, no, it's all good. I'll listen. Sure. He probably doesn't want to have to deal with anybody else. Honestly, listening to our show is better than answering someone else. Yes. Right. So thank you, dmv. That only happens to you, you cheese weenie. If it was me, that person would have hung up immediately. And I'm like, ah. Because I waited all day for that callback. You know what I'm talking about? When they're like, we'll call you sometime today. I thought I was gonna have to go back to the dmv. Just wondering, when is your. Is your luck just. I mean, as your co host and friend, I hope your luck continues to just ride on and things go smooth. My goodness. His neighbor just agreed to pay for half of his fence. This guy. This guy wins the lotto every day. Really does. If that was my neighbor, remember, Rich wasn't gonna touch that fence because it was gonna cost too much. His neighbor just happened to say, hey, buddy, I'll split that fence with you. Consider it karma, Rich. Well, I try to do a lot of good things, but my pain in the ass things I don't bring up because I try to lead with positivity. But if you want, we could do a weekly. What really annoyed Rich, because trust me, because I'm telling you, not that bad things happen. Your boy here, but I guarantee you, I would have been hung up on in that situation. Yeah. Hello. My guy's like, kavito and Rich, I'll go download the pod. No, thank you. Thank you, DMV. This guy stayed on hold for 12 minutes waiting for Rich. It's ridiculous. Thanks, John. All right, we gotta do. We got a new Dan. We got a new new listener on the podcast. Rich. There's a one victim at a time drama I was watching. You know, believe it or not, I still watch Tosh. Daniel Tosh. Not on Comedy Central, but on his social media. Yeah. And he was like, is this LeBron's last year? He's like, I can't imagine A league without LeBron James. Yeah. And if that's the case, like we said about Shohei Otani earlier this week, we really got to embrace LeBron James. Whether you like him or not, you might not see. Yeah, I think you're going to see guys like this. I do. LeBron's famous Cleveland jersey is their throwback jersey this season. You got to take it in. He's still playing. Take it in and embrace the guy. I think with guys like Wembanyama in the league. Yeah. You're going to see lots of great. Not yet. Let me explain. Not yet, but still embrace. If I said, guys party at someone's place, seven o', clock, when do you show up? Think about that. Don't answer now. If someone says, hey, we're having people for drinks and some dinner, seven o', clock, when are you showing up? Because I think the NBA doesn't know social cues. And I'll explain.

There are no girls on the Internet is not just about tech. It's about culture and policy and art and expression and how we as humans exist and fit with one another. In our new season, I'm talking to people like Anil Dash, an OG entrepreneur and writer who refuses to be cynical about the Internet. I love tech.

And I'm sure the members of Rage against the Machine are down with the battle of Los Angeles. And shout out to my buddy Len in Idaho. He's rooting for his Dodgers. Danny G. Is excited about it. Dodgers. Hold on, Blue Jays. This Friday. I'm torn based on what Dan Byers said. We got to play the day in a second. Danny, I know to keep your chonies on, but what Dan Byer said was interesting. We're too kind. No one roots for our teams. It's not like, it's not like everyone's secret is like, really? I hope Rich's Mets will win. So why am I being really nobody supportive of your team? How many Mets cards have I given you over the years? You might be the lone guy that makes me think, you know, the Dodgers, Mets, bobbleheads. That's true. You're a good guy. I don't know. I'm torn. Like, you know, your father, your future father in law, your girlfriend's dad likes The Dodgers. And you're not. And you're gonna root for the Blue Jays. He's an LA guy. Well, Donnie, baseball is a deciding factor here. I don't know, but may the best team win. I'm a little torn on it. Well, I imagine there's a lot of people that are torn on it with the whole George Springer cheating storyline. Even though that was a clutch moment. Again, all these things make it a confusing sort of situation, but. Or maybe you just don't like Canadians. No, no, no. We've made this point before. And Dan Beyer. Blame Canada. Blame Canada. You need to settle down there, buddy. I'm just really upset that Justin Trudeau is getting with Katy Perry. That is true. Doe. What? Yeah, Trudeau. Wow. Wow. Dan Meyer. Much like a prize fight. You said it before. You sit back, you watch and you'll figure it out. You end up rooting for somebody whether you want to or not. Right now, it's time for our tyrack play of the day. We're live from the Fox Sports Radio studio. Toronto is headed to the World Series, their first time since 1993. Full count, two outs, top of the ninth. Game seven of the ALCS. Puffins payoff pitch. We go in. The Blue Jays win the pennant. The Blue Jays win the pennant. They're going to the World Series. Not to beat. It's so good. We must be dreaming. Toronto Blue Jays come back. Hold on, hold on. Take on the LA Dodgers. Not to be nitpicky, but if you watch the 9th, don't you feel like they could have drawn a walk? I feel like every batter swung at one like, you know, cutter out of the zone. Like I, I mean I know I'm being picky. It's the 9th and everyone's pressing but you had to get Cal Raleigh runner on. Yeah, you had it like you you and even the closer said like the goal was to not face Cal Raleigh. I know it's common knowledge probably to some, but I had a Google Jeff hot related to Trevor. No. The answer is no. But you know, grew up idolizing him. Related to Dustin of Blue Jays radio network. I'm not sure about that, Sam. I'll google it. And that's our tire rack play of the day. For over 40 years, Tire Rack's been helping customers find the right tires for how, what and where they drive ship fast and free backed by free road hazard protection with convenient installation options like mobile tire installation.

You gotta Brought to you by draftkicks. The NBA games. The only reason to watch gamble because right now, when you are watching the World Series in a couple days, when you're right smack dab, Week 7 and 8 of the NFL, not only that you're trying to figure out the NFL, you're like, what is going on? Like, we are, we're in the midst of we had a double doozy Monday night Football last night. It's an interesting season. You're trying to decide who am I pulling for in the World Series. October, baseball, Halloween's, you know, in a week your kids are probably figuring out their trunk or treat and trick or treat. I'm watching the perfect neighbor on Netflix saying, what the hell? I'm watching Chad Powers because no one else is. And it's so freaking good. Five episodes in, you idiots better be watching Chad Powers. Danny G. Follow me on this one. I'll follow you on task. I started less night. Hbo, Max, the NBA notor of. You know, we go to Vegas. Danny G. And they say, oh, the fight started 5:30. And you're like, Matt, do they really or do they really start at like 8 o'? Clock? Because you're like. Then you start doing the math. You're like the. The main event usually starts at 11, 11:30 on the east. So the good fights really don't start until it's like three hours of warmups. It's like a waste. It's like preseason NFL. It's like telling someone, hey, we're having people over at 7 o'. Clock. The host doesn't think you're really showing up at 7. They assume 7:15 is the time. Right? No one shows up at I'm here 7:01. Like we're jumping the gun. NBA. No one cares until after Thanksgiving. In fact, the best year ever in the NBA was when it was, remember Christmas Day. That shortened scenes were like perfect. The NBA NBA tips off on Christmas day next month and a half. I'm going to I'm honest right now I am going to be watching highlights, faking my interest in the NBA until Christmas. He's not lying about that shortened season being the most exciting season. It really was some about it was action just started and we got right into it. It seemed like the perfect amount of time but not for the owner's pockets. And that's why they're not going to listen to all of our hot takes about. You should start on Christmas Day every year, Danny. You know what? It's. It's only because of a couple storylines and, you know, us trying to fish for good content for the show. And there's always going to be some drama, right? And, you know, you want to see what new players are emerging. Does WIMBY take a big step forward this year? Like, anyone be okay? They've only gotten better. Exactly. So the Rockets roll out the tallest opening day lineup in NBA history. And then you're. Then you're going to be very intrigued by, like, well, what do the Mavericks look like? Healthy. Right? I get it. The storylines. But other than for work purposes and to stay in the loop, as a grown man, I have zero interest in the NBA until Christmas day I open. Might as well put it in my stocking stuffer. NBA. Oh, look at this little marshmallow Santa. And the NBA. Because until Christmas day, the NBA. I don't care about you. I don't care, and I'll stick to it. I don't care. Chicago. A white woman's murder. A black man behind bars for a crime he didn't commit. 90 years for killing somebody I have never seen.
