Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. Should Little League Practice Be Canceled for Heat?

• Situation: Rich, coaching a 5-6 year old t-ball team, is debating canceling practice due to a high-90s L.A. heatwave.
• Rich’s Position: Safety first. Kids this young can’t handle 98-100°F. Cites a heat advisory and unproductive, miserable practices.
• Covino’s Counterpoint: “When we were kids, we played through everything.” Argues it sets a bad precedent to cancel too often for heat.
• Parental & Listener Feedback: Most parents secretly appreciate cancellations.
  • Quote, Rich: "Anytime parents get the text that something is canceled on the parental agenda, it's like, oh no, you gotta pretend like, oh really — one less time to be a chauffeur." (13:08)
• Callers’ Takes:
  • Max (Fargo): Suggests Rich is being "a weenie."
  • Maureen (Maine): Points out summer and spring “acclimation” difference — kids who aren't yet acclimated to the heat are more at risk.
• Compromise Reached: Rich offers “optional” practice, with short batting practice, water breaks, and the hose to cool off.
  • Quote: "I'll hose down the kids with the hose and we'll dip out and watch the World Baseball Classic. That seems like a good compromise..." (11:28)
  • Quote, Covino: "Everybody is walking on eggshells because you know, you don't want to be liable for anything." (12:03)

2. March Madness and Picks

• The hosts tease March Madness coverage on their bonus podcast "Overpromised" with guest Kelly in Vegas.
• Rich humorously admits to picking tourney upsets and bets based on personal bias: “I’m going to do my pick based on like a child... Hawaii is a nice place, I’ll take them and the points.” (48:29)

3. World Baseball Classic (WBC) Hype

• Anticipation for the USA vs. Venezuela championship game.
• Noted that WBC’s high energy and international intensity have created “World Cup atmosphere,” making the MLB regular season potentially less dramatic by comparison.
  • Quote, Covino: “Imagine if the NBA in-season tournament was more exciting than the NBA Finals. I think you can make a case this WBC has really made it difficult for the MLB to live up to this...” (50:04)
• Discussion about the MLB proactive attempt to make the game more fun again (“celebrations are back”).
• Look ahead to whether the US will meet expectations, or if Venezuela—backed by rabid Miami crowd support (possibly 75% Venezuelan fans, per Iowa Sam)—can snag the upset.

4. Game Segment: Last One Standing (29:02)

• A lively sports trivia contest between the hosts, Dan Byer, and a listener (JD, a lawyer from Florida).
• Categories included NFL teams with best offseason grades, teams in the World Baseball Classic, and NFL teams with new head coaches.
• Signature tongue-in-cheek ribbing about toughness, weather, and “weenies” persists:
  • Quote, Steve Covino: “Is it OK if I leave? It’s too hot, I don’t want to play. Maybe we should cancel Last One Standing — it’s 98 degrees out, guys.” (29:27)

5. Sports Updates and Headlines

Dan Byer provides the latest:

• NCAA Tournament First Four games have begun.
• Notable NBA injuries: Giannis Antetokounmpo (bone bruise), Anthony Edwards (knee inflammation).
• NFL: Broncos trade for Dolphins’ Jalen Waddle; Eagles sign Marquise Brown; schedule updates revealed for next season.

Notable Quotes & Memorable Moments

• "When I was a kid… riding my bike around, going to the park, not caring if it was 100 degrees...that's all preteen, teenager stuff." – Rich Davis (06:29)
• "Maybe a bunch of coddled L.A. kids and it's too hot for question Ham Porter? You're gonna question the great Hambino?" – Steve Covino invoking The Sandlot (09:30)
• "Tell me you just want to cancel because it's Saint Patty's Day, the game's on and, you know what, it's a little hot, whatever Grayson, it's fine. Don't tell me it's because Grayson can't handle it..." – Steve Covino (13:19)
• Caller JD (Lawyer): "Just not gonna let Rich shoot me with his hose." (30:36)

[Rich Davis]

yes right now that gottlieb is officially off the network i'm the number one coach on fox sports radio and in the

[Steve Covino]

valley yes and he's in a bit of a predicament right now because well it's it's a nice day here in

[Rich Davis]

los angeles not a nice day a nice day i mean there's nothing nice about this day take thirty degrees off then it's nice yeah nice day is like eighty and sunny and nice this

[Steve Covino]

is not a i haven't broken a sweat all day i'm wearing levi dungarees

[Rich Davis]

i don't understand what you're talking about because everyone else in this studio is looking at you like you're a maniac it's one hundred degrees rfk junior working

[Steve Covino]

out in your jeans well guess what

[Rich Davis]

guess what no one else is wearing

[Steve Covino]

jeans you're going to tell me these

[Rich Davis]

little kids danny g showed up in

[Steve Covino]

shorts can't play baseball in ninety eight degree weather there's six all of a sudden they're five but richard five and

[Rich Davis]

six year olds half the team by

[Iowa Sam]

six until now you do more water breaks and you do a shorter practice

[Steve Covino]

if you're worried about it but if you just joined us r is saying he asked the question as coach rich should he cancel practice for today well

[Rich Davis]

because one of the a couple of the parents like yo we on tonight and then i put the the question into like the the coach group chat at the league and so far a couple of the coaches hit me back with yeah dude if my practice was today you're what happens in the summertime

[Steve Covino]

they don't ever play it's always hot

[Iowa Sam]

yeah you got to teach kids how to play sports in the elements they're

[Rich Davis]

not teenagers they're not twelve this is not an all star summer league okay

[Steve Covino]

so as the season progresses it's only going to get warmer they don't play

[Rich Davis]

half these kids don't even want to play they're five and six it's it's it's t ball it's shetland sounds like

[Iowa Sam]

a coaching issue yeah

[Rich Davis]

i'm with coach

[Steve Covino]

rich here why i it's too hot

[Rich Davis]

it's one hundred degrees who wants to be outside right now it's awful you keep saying it's nice out you would walk it you would take a walk

[Steve Covino]

today beautiful sunny day out this is

[Rich Davis]

sauna steve over here how do little

[Steve Covino]

kids care when you were a little kid was it ever too hot to go out and play you went out you you had a cold towel right you you you you you're you're you

[Rich Davis]

had a gatorade yeah but you're you're acting you know what you're talking about you're talking about when you were ten twelve thirteen years old too hot

[Steve Covino]

you're

[Rich Davis]

like completely out of your mind that's

[Steve Covino]

my instinct i could be wrong you never go outside safety i get it safety first but you act like we didn't play in in ninety something degree

[Rich Davis]

weather growing because what you're doing is you're assigning what you did as a preteen and teenager to kindergarten kids it's way different yes when i was twelve thirteen riding my bike to the park to do home run derby and it was one hundred degrees and who can't you go into those i think everybody

[Steve Covino]

just wants to play it safe and that's fine if that's the answer like you gotta play it safe we're not

[Rich Davis]

taking any chance i just think it's not going to be productive because they're all going to be super hot you're

[Steve Covino]

going to cancel every time it's ninety something like you're setting a bad precedent as far as i'm concerned but again i'm not a coach and i'm not thinking on behalf of little we did

[Rich Davis]

six year old did we all just not get an alert that woodland hills california is under a heat advisory when the town's under a heat advisory in their five and six year old t

[Steve Covino]

ball how about i would play didn't you used to play like football and soccer tournaments in the freezing cold wait

[Rich Davis]

wait how old were you my ear

[Steve Covino]

almost fall off froze how how old were you at i i clearly remember at nine it was like eight nine years old but like i'm playing football

[Rich Davis]

playing soccer okay soccer when you're eight or nine yeah in new jersey yeah on a humid spring day no on a freezing day on a freezing day yeah i remember taking swimming lessons and

[Iowa Sam]

i'm saying really cold rich i grew up here in california my entire life one hundred five is when practices were

[Steve Covino]

canceled one hundred five yeah you know truthfully i don't know but i didn't notice that oh my god i could fry an egg on my neck i

[Rich Davis]

didn't notice anything unbearably mike thermometer in my car said one hundred nine on my way here and then it came down that doesn't mean it's like on ground but the asphalt i think you're i think you're absolutely not i think

[Steve Covino]

you guys just want to dip out and watch the wbc that's a good

[Rich Davis]

excuse then i said what if i said hey they're all again they're all t ball shetland level they're all five and six they're all kindergarten kids so i said what if instead i said hey it's one hundred degrees watch the world baseball classic and write down or tell me coach rich one thing you learned from watching the wbc i think

[Steve Covino]

that's a great idea if you're going to cut out on practice i think that's a great alternate plan for sure they better be watching this game but

[Rich Davis]

i think what you're doing is you're glamor you know what you're doing that thing we all do when we're like well when i was a kid and you're assigning the age differences are way off whack because what you're talking about riding your bike around going to the park not caring if it was one hundred degrees that's all preteen teenager riding your bike stuff your little son benny's

[Steve Covino]

not going outside when it's past ninety eight degrees all summer long in the

[Rich Davis]

pool that's bs in the pool hold on let's bring the pool into this let me quote the great ham porter when he said i'm baking like a toasted cheeser it's so hot here be like the kids in sandlot and take

[Steve Covino]

pool day that's part of childhood man

[Rich Davis]

no but they even said it's too hot for baseball too hot for baseball in sandlot they're baking like a toasted cheeser it's so hot here you question

[Steve Covino]

sandlot perhaps you're right but maybe a bunch of coddled la kids and it's too hot for question ham porter you're

[Rich Davis]

going to question the great hambino bacon

[Steve Covino]

like a toasted cheeser maybe i am eight seven seven nine nine on fox i could be off but my first instinct is what a bunch of weenies eight seven seven nine nine on fox

[Rich Davis]

who do we got let's say hi

[Iowa Sam]

to i'll take max max max and

[Rich Davis]

fargo max max is in fargo whoa what's up north dakota hey yeah it's

[Caller]

really cold here rich you are kind of being a weenie man like it's

[Rich Davis]

it's dude do you have kids you're

[Steve Covino]

just being a little hot dog weenie

[Caller]

i just want if i'm going to go to iowa san sam route if we're going to throw out quotes julius campbell you know attitude reflects leadership that's all i'm going to say guess what

[Rich Davis]

julius campbell was a high school senior all american how do do you have any kids that are about kindergarten age

[Steve Covino]

by the way what was the fans

[Rich Davis]

the kids in the team like spin around in a circle and think they're a helicopter then maybe they're too young

[Steve Covino]

to be playing period bro that's what i think if they're too young then

[Rich Davis]

they're too young blake in colorado what's up your lincoln logs lincoln laws if

[Steve Covino]

they're such little baby boys then why are they playing organized sports anyway it's

[Rich Davis]

a i i think you're i don't think you really did you not come to work today did you like going

[Steve Covino]

to tunnel believe me and i've lived in woodland hills i know it gets hot it's brutal yeah so what technically

[Rich Davis]

it's still winter until the twentieth yeah

[Steve Covino]

bro it's march winter out here it's march you're calling it because it's winter it doesn't sound right to me what's

[Caller]

up man hey how's it going

[Steve Covino]

we're

[Rich Davis]

good blake what's on your mind buddy

[Caller]

hey besides danny g calling me soft i would cancel it just because it is saint patrick's day and the world baseball classics like i don't know i

[Steve Covino]

think that's what everybody's leaning toward yeah

[Iowa Sam]

he says just go ferris bueller you

[Rich Davis]

know what i could say how about this how about i say you guys

[Steve Covino]

are trying to pull the irish goodbye

[Rich Davis]

on your face how about i say how about i say some optional bp in the cage we'll do some water breaks there's a hose there that during summer league all stars i spray the kids down with the hose so i can see like they're in prison like they're in prison i go we could do we could do a little bp bp i'll hose down the kids with the hose and we'll dip out and we'll we'll do a short bp practice so we could dip out and watch the world baseball classic that seems like a good compromise and i could say hey it's optional because if there's some parent that's like oh it's very hot then i don't want to put anyone in a position they don't want to be in how about this optional practice

[Steve Covino]

that's really where the thinking comes from like everybody is walking on eggshells because of you know you don't want to

[Rich Davis]

be liable for anything it's not liable it's the fact that i love it and take it serious because i love

[Steve Covino]

safety i'm not saying it's necessarily a bad thing safety is a priority i get it but i just remember like

[Rich Davis]

i don't see it the kids are

[Steve Covino]

playing that's what they do they play

[Rich Davis]

all right danbire you have a son that's even younger what are you thinking

[Dan Byer]

as a covino guy i'm siding with rich ooh how's that feel

[Steve Covino]

like that

[Rich Davis]

i will also say you ever see

[Steve Covino]

those indian movies when they get shot

[Dan Byer]

oh get burned literally canceling practice will only provide good it's a positive people practice is canceled then what are they

[Steve Covino]

going to do good news the parents

[Rich Davis]

yeah parents are going to love me

[Dan Byer]

colton's practice is canceled tonight we don't

[Rich Davis]

have to worry about it anytime parents get some anytime parents get the text that something is canceled on the parental agenda it's like oh no you gotta

[Steve Covino]

pretend like you're like oh really one

[Rich Davis]

last time to be a chauffeur how

[Dan Byer]

many thumbs up you will get on that text when you say too hot out let's cancel it tonight everyone will give the thumbs up okay but hold

[Steve Covino]

on coach rich don't feed me a line of bs right tell me you just don't want to do it and use this as an excuse don't tell me because it's too hot for little kylan or norm whatever his name is nayland don't tell me it's too hot

[Rich Davis]

for his little tootsies don't lie to

[Steve Covino]

me and say that then tell me you just want to cancel because it's saint patty's day the game's on and you know what it's a little hot whatever grayson it's fine don't tell me it's because grayson can't handle it all

[Rich Davis]

right well i'm going to i'm going to say hey completely optional i'm going to go to the field for a little bit do some bp with some of the kids and spray them down with the hose no pressure hold on

[Steve Covino]

let me can i tell you the

[Rich Davis]

kids have so much fun with that during summer all stars last year why

[Steve Covino]

don't you bring the crocodile mile no

[Rich Davis]

no joke at summer practice last year the kids love that more than practice

[Steve Covino]

like if they it says right now eighty two degrees and sunny what are

[Rich Davis]

you talking about that's what it says

[Steve Covino]

right now in la i guess i'll look up woodland hills hold up that's

[Rich Davis]

hogwash it's not eighty two degrees hogwash

[Steve Covino]

i just looked it up it's ninety

[Rich Davis]

[Steve Covino]

in sherman oaks it's ninety six woodland

[Rich Davis]

[Steve Covino]

yeah valley price here ninety seven yeah mine just said los angeles ninety seven

[Iowa Sam]

degrees right now mine says ninety six

[Rich Davis]

feels like ninety eight too that's what

[Steve Covino]

it says so is that that feels

[Rich Davis]

like five and six year olds feels

[Iowa Sam]

like some soft suckers that's what it

[Steve Covino]

feels like but whatever you know i guess again danny safety first danny you

[Rich Davis]

know what it is though it's i'll give you the other thought i'm just surprised when i do practice now that there's more light out trust me i'm the coach and my kid and some of the other kids they'll play all day i get the evil looks from parents when practice goes into dinner time and later now because i'm the kid i'm the coach that still feels like the kid that's like i'll play until it's dark and i get the coaches being like i get the other parents being like hey when are we wrapping

[Steve Covino]

up so okay i have a serious question for real okay it's march and it's ninety seven degrees here in los angeles canceled practice because it's too hot for five and six year olds what happens as the season progresses it's not going to really get any cooler you

[Rich Davis]

just keep canceling games in the dead of the summer it's only the little kids who play all stars that really want to be there so they tough it out i'm saying for half for the kids that are already like i don't know if i like this and they're just spinning around like like i said little airplanes anyway if you can't get that kid's attention on a beautiful day today that kid's going to be

[Steve Covino]

miserable all right so your thoughts eight seven seven nine nine on fox and i would love you know those old school nfl you make the call i would love to hear some feedback on social media and live chat i'm pulling up the live chat right now because i really don't know how people are feeling about this at covino enrich fsr on youtube enrich fsr one of the

[Rich Davis]

let's get into it real quick i i could i give you another pick as we get closer to march madness yeah how about you have draftkings how

[Steve Covino]

about you think about it while i tell everybody about dude wipes oh please do you ever wipe with a piece of dry toilet paper wipe away is this as good as it gets wipe away it's a miserable feeling well it's not switch to life changing wet extra large flushable dude wipes people often ask us how do you guys do it

[Rich Davis]

with such confidence they do that stuff like this dude wipes the wipes bro

[Steve Covino]

but now we tell you because wetter just cleans better available at amazon and all major retailers nationwide dude wipes best clean pants down all right here's what

[Rich Davis]

i'm doing courtesy of draftkings all the spreads there at draftkings sportsbook the number one sportsbook for live betting built for march so when you're looking looking at the opening round and you're looking at some of these matchups since most people don't know anything about some of these teams unless you're like i said unless you're an expert of sorts unless you really are the guy that watches every college basketball game danny we discussed yesterday when you agree march mathis is the one time of year where even experts

[Iowa Sam]

don't know everything oh yeah we said yesterday one of the only guys that we know here that even knows his stuff is aaron torres who's going to be in with dan on thursday and friday for us which truthfully is the

[Rich Davis]

best time for us to vacation and have him fill in he's an expert i'm going to be on a beach it'll be fine i guarantee that no one knows the depths of some of these lower seed teams which is why i'm going to do my pick based on like a child i'm going to do what a child would do i'm going to be going to hawaii with my family later this year so i was like hawaii is a nice place

[Steve Covino]

bringing your kids yeah hope it doesn't get too hot al

[Rich Davis]

hawaii fifteen and a half point underdogs against arkansas i'm going to pick hawaii as an underdog hawaii is a nicer place in arkansas idaho vino's got a beautiful girlfriend who's from boise yeah that's right they're twenty three and a half point underdogs as a fifteen seat to houston now i like houston but houston will whoop them but i like twenty three and a half points that's a hell of a lot of points points idaho with the points and i grew up on long island and everyone's safety school was hofstra university everyone knows someone that went to hofstra if you lived on long island

[Steve Covino]

i knew a kid named wayne that

[Rich Davis]

went there wayne kubet yeah wayne krabbet make that joke every time you hear hofstra because that's the only reference it's the only reference hofstra eleven and a half point underdogs to alabama so i'm going to take three places i know and just take them in a parlor with a lot of points no right and again draftkings use our code cr show to claim special offerings right now again that's promo code cr show draftkings the crown is yours now before we get out of here any final thoughts about the world baseball classic or anything else as we get closer to baseball

[Steve Covino]

season yeah i have some thoughts meaning the mlb has some really great problems right right now because imagine if the nba in season tournament was more exciting than the nba finals i think you can make a case that this wbc has really made it difficult for the mlb to live up to this like the world series is really gonna have to step up i'm not saying it doesn't matter more or less or anything like that i'm just saying saying like what we're seeing here is like i said yesterday is world cup atmosphere i know anybody expected that i know what

[Rich Davis]

you're saying all one hundred sixty two matter but how do you go from aaron judge teaming up with bryce harper and schwaber and bobby witt junior and all these guys you know and they're facing the other day the dominican with fernando tatis and soto and all that how do you go from that to like opening day and it's the yankees versus the giants yeah like it's it's a it's a bit of a a transition that's going to be a good

[Steve Covino]

problem for the mlb to have as

[Rich Davis]

as we said the other day though mlb knows it which is why their promo that runs on fox says celebrations are back like vibe is back like they're clear there's an initiative to dare i say make baseball fun again so yeah baseball back in a big way but the world baseball classic culminates tonight it would only make sense if they want if venezuela wins good for them but i think this is let's see the deal tonight they got a lot

[Steve Covino]

of moment lot of energy we'll see if that carries them ahead of team usa who's just a powerhouse they're expected to win and when you're expected to win and you play for such a powerful team that lineup stacked maybe it is a little rude to be cheering because it's almost like you're cheering down sometimes so maybe if they do win though and win it all maybe we see some real excitement tonight i think we're going to see some big at bats from guys like roman anthony last i saw cal raleigh wasn't starting which is you know very surprising will smith huh yeah being that he was runner up mvp last year year so it's going to be a lot of fun i think the venezuelan crowd is going to be fired up i see coleman johnson hit us up you know who

[Rich Davis]

they would never sit who aaron judge

[Steve Covino]

nah no way no how but cal r not starting cal r not i mean again last i heard will the crowd give them extra momentum that they need like that's why fans matter too like will the usa fans step up to compete with these venezuelan fans yeah

[Iowa Sam]

we've been hearing that it might be like seventy five per year in favor of venezuela wow i mean it's in

[Steve Covino]

miami right yeah that's is that number

[Iowa Sam]

two high that's guessing i'm surprised that's

[Steve Covino]

i thought it'd be a little more even than that so might as well support your team we don't expect you to sit there and watch every pitch but have it on tonight and enjoy and we'll talk about it again when we return on the twenty third you
