[Rich Davis]

Are you talking about the Mets starting pitcher?

[Steve Covino]

No.

[Rich Davis]

My tong's on my feet. Ting Tong Broadcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio studio, I'm Steve Covino. That is Rich Davis. Sagar's here, Danny G. Is here and we be rocking out.

[Steve Covino]

Now I want to talk about baseball for one second. Then we're going to obviously dive back into football. We'll do a little game with Danny G. Give away some prizes. Baseball. You got 25 games left. I'm a big Mets fan. Cavino Yankees. Danny Giamanci Ryan representing the Los Doyers.

[Rich Davis]

Our boy Ben Verlander who never ever responded to us or followed us back. You know our boy Ben Verlander, I like him a lot. You got dissed, he said.

[Steve Covino]

Here's. He followed me back. He said Cavino stinks.

[Rich Davis]

Here's the Micah Parsons trade explained in baseball. So before you get into baseball.

[Steve Covino]

Okay, let's hear it.

[Rich Davis]

Micah Parsons trade explained in baseball terms. It's like Mookie Bets from Boston to the Dodgers. It's like Nolan Arenado from Colorado to St. Louis. It's like Miguel Cabrera from Florida Marlins to the Tigers. Just not getting a whole lot in return.

[Steve Covino]

I did want to ask you guys, I want to see if you could I. You're not going to get this, but it just shows you how the emphasis on batting average in baseball has like totally changed. I was looking at some old school stats from when we were kids. Every team had at least 1.300hitter, right?

[Rich Davis]

What is there under 5 now?

[Steve Covino]

It's funny you would say that. As we speak, we got 25 games left in the season and there are five guys in all of Major League Baseball hitting.300 or over. It's embarrassing. And it's embarrassing because not only do we only have five guys batting over.300.

[Rich Davis]

Every time, every time you say five guys, I'm thinking of burgers and I'm getting real hungry now.

[Steve Covino]

Five guys. You like those extra fries and peanuts?

[Rich Davis]

I probably should have ate before I got here.

[Steve Covino]

Only five guys. And we all know that Aaron Judge is one of them. And he's batting.323, leading the league by 16 points. The other four guys batting over.300. 307, 306, 303 and 302.

[Rich Davis]

He might be the only guy. By the time if any of these.

[Steve Covino]

Guys get a little cold, I bet you're I. My prediction, now, there's going to be three guys.

[Rich Davis]

It was seven about a month ago.

[Steve Covino]

So two guys already falling off. Yeah.

[Ryan]

Freddie Freeman is on that list, right?

[Steve Covino]

Fred Duarto. Freeman.

[Rich Davis]

What, the list of picking his nose on camera? Yeah, he's on that list.

[Steve Covino]

Freddie Freeman. He wasn't picking his nose. He was pulling out nose hairs. Covino.

[Rich Davis]

In fact, we talked about that on over promised our bonus pod. It dropped yesterday on our new YouTube page. Covino Enrich FSR on YouTube episode 106. We talked about things we just accept, but they're so gross in sports. You see Freddy Freeman diggin ripping hairs out of his nose, then shaking hands and we're like, yeah, it's baseball. Whatever.

[Steve Covino]

You ever pick out a nose hair and genuinely start tearing up and crawl like, oh, yeah, for sure. All right, so you were right. Freddie Freeman. But not for long. Danny. He's batting.302. He has one overnight or a little, you know, two games where he goes one for eight.

[Rich Davis]

I can't even tell you who else is on the list.

[Steve Covino]

I was going to say Freddie Freeman's number five.

[Rich Davis]

Okay.

[Steve Covino]

Aaron Judge is number one.

[Rich Davis]

Right.

[Steve Covino]

Only three other guys besides Aaron Judge, your reigning MVP and your World Series mvp, Freddie Freeman. Besides all of baseball. All of baseball. Judge, Freeman and three other cats.

[Rich Davis]

I don't know.

[Steve Covino]

I'll give you the hint. One guy is from your hated Houston Astros. And I don't even think you'd guess this guy.

[Rich Davis]

No, I wouldn't. Because I'll think Altuve or crayon is Pena.

[Steve Covino]

Jeremy Pena. Jeremy Pena is batting.306 again. Have a bad week. You're betting 290 something, right? And the other two guys, this is shocking. Only five guys batting over.302 of them on the Toronto Blue Jays.

[Rich Davis]

Oh, Bo, the catcher, what's his name?

[Steve Covino]

Boba Shet?

[Rich Davis]

Alex.

[Steve Covino]

No, no, Boba Shet's one of them. He's batting.307, which is the second best batting average in baseball.

[Rich Davis]

Boba Shed, the bounty hunter.

[Steve Covino]

Yes, Boba Shed, the bounty hunter. Boba Shed is batting.307 and the other is George Springer batting.303. So when you look at Springer batting.303 and Freeman batting.302, I thought maybe Alejandro.

[Rich Davis]

Kirk, what is he batting? He's a pretty good batter, too.

[Steve Covino]

Within a week, Covino, it could be down to three. And I'm not being the old guy, that's like batting average.

[Rich Davis]

Alejandro Kirk is betting.299. So he's right up there. The Blue Jays have some decent bats in their lineup. That's why they're tops in the AL East. So he's right there.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, wow. So, yeah, he's right under the. The Mendoza line will be.200. But yeah, Kirk is right there, huh.

[Rich Davis]

299, 11 bombs, 60 RBI, all star.

[Steve Covino]

Catcher, but there you go.

[Rich Davis]

So, wow, man.

[Steve Covino]

And the, the other thought I had about baseball. And then we'll get into some football and beer, which I don't know. I don't know if you could. Anyone could argue football and beer. It's like a combo that goes like burgers and fries. Here's my question. When something's so predictable and it still happens, do you blame it on little mental hang ups you can't predict? I mean, you can't prevent. Meaning the Mets swept. The Phillies owns them. They own them in their head. Mets own the Phillies. Conventional wisdom would say the first game after that series, Philly's going to light it up and the Mets are going to have like a letdown loss. You feel it coming and it happens. What is that phenomenon? Like the inability to prevent what you know is going to happen. Like they say it in the NFL all the time, like, that's a trap game. And you know it's a trap game.

[Rich Davis]

How about this one?

[Steve Covino]

Lions are playing like the Giants or something. You're like, man, it looks. They're looking ahead. It's a trap game. I trap games in the NFL.

[Rich Davis]

Coincidence? It's always, you know, 50, 50 chance.

[Steve Covino]

No, but I'm saying, like yesterday I could have told you Philly, who looked cold as could be against the Mets, end up scoring like 20 runs and Schwarber hits four bombs and you could have, you knew that was.

[Rich Davis]

Someone makes a crazy play in the field, they're always the first person to lead off that next inning.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, maybe it's just the awareness theory, I don't know.

[Rich Davis]

But, but yeah, maybe we're just aware of that happening often.

[Steve Covino]

But I could have told you that after sweeping the Phillies and looking hot, I was like, I knew the Mets were going to lose yesterday. You just felt it like it was. It's inevitable. It's, it's again it's that letdown loss after a big win in football.

[Rich Davis]

Or maybe you know, subconsciously a team just lets their foot off the pedal a little bit because they just want a series. But even if you not playing with.

[Steve Covino]

The same urgency, but I'm saying if you know that's your tendency, how does it still happen? Like you don't think the Mets had a conversation like we just swept the Phillies. We cannot allow this next game against the Marlins to be a letdown. Meanwhile they have like four errors and lose.

[Rich Davis]

I don't know. What are your thoughts? Fox Sports Radio Nation is Cavino and Rich broadcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio studio. Ever wanted to try an Olympic or Paralympic sport? Try fencing. It's fast, safe, easy to start. Find a beginner class near you at usafencing.org trifencing. That's usafencing.org/tri. Fencing.

[Rich Davis]

Thank you.

[Steve Covino]

Fencing. Danny G. I know you're pumped about your Raiders, you're pumped about the football season starting and I know you found the list that you wanted to go over. So this is fun. And while we do this, let's get a contestant for Chipotle worker or WNBA player. We play this game once a week, give away some prizes. So if you want to get involved 87799 on Fox.

[Rich Davis]

It's our fun way of getting the weekend going. Holiday weekend, Labor Day weekend, extended weekend and our way of giving back to you. Giving away prizes while familiarizing ourselves with the wnba.

[Steve Covino]

That's a nice way to put it. Yeah, let's go. Yeah, that's the ticket. Let's go to Danny and tug little NFL.

[Ryan]

This research was done by BetMGM. This is the price of beer at every NFL stadium. We're talking just a regular sized draft.

[Rich Davis]

Okay.

[Ryan]

So I'm gonna let you guys try to guess the top five stadiums. So the most expensive and then the bottom five, the cheapest.

[Steve Covino]

Alright now my, my. I don't want to give my strategy but my strategy is this so I will give it away. I suppose to be the cheapest, it needs to be a smaller market team or a team that's so desperate they want fans to come. Like, we have no fans, please. It'll be $5 beers, and the expensive ones are going to be teams that have playoff success because they know people are going no matter what.

[Rich Davis]

And keep in mind, Rich Davis doubles the prices because he wears a beer helmet, so he buys two every time.

[Steve Covino]

In the holster.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. So. All right, we're just doing one, Rich, as usual.

[Ryan]

You guys get three strikes.

[Rich Davis]

Okay? All right, Fair enough.

[Steve Covino]

So we're going top three and bottom three or top five and bottom five.

[Ryan]

So whatever you want to start with top or bottom. You want to start with the top top five and bottom five. Monty can help you, too.

[Steve Covino]

All right, let's agree on our pick, Mon. We. We all agree that just because it's New York and New York is overpriced. MetLife. Giants and jets would probably be here.

[Monsieur]

Yeah, I would think so.

[Steve Covino]

MetLife. Danny G. That is your first X. Are you. What?

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, I agree with Rich.

[Monsieur]

I agree. The logic was there.

[Rich Davis]

We locked it in.

[Ryan]

They're actually seventh. They are. $13.

[Rich Davis]

Okay, I got one. Rich, your stadium.

[Steve Covino]

I mean, Bay Area expensive. I know it's not the Bay Area. It's Santa Clara, but monster.

[Monsieur]

Yes, yes, yes.

[Steve Covino]

49Ers. Lock it in. Lock it in.

[Rich Davis]

Boom.

[Ryan]

Put them on the board. Niners at $14. So they're tied there again.

[Rich Davis]

These are the top five most expensive beer drafts at the stadium, all right.

[Steve Covino]

Because their fan base just had a Super bowl because it's still northeast expensive. Philadelphia. What'd you say? The link.

[Rich Davis]

No.

[Steve Covino]

Well, I didn't lock it.

[Rich Davis]

Oh.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, I'm sorry. Oh, no, I didn't lock it.

[Ryan]

I'm sorry.

[Steve Covino]

I think he gave us one now.

[Monsieur]

Because he did.

[Ryan]

That's your free pass.

[Rich Davis]

Think of the overhead. How about.

[Monsieur]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

How about. Oh, well, Buffalo's making a new stadium, so they got to make some money. Hold on. Dallas.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, Jerry and Dallas wanna do. We want to lock in Dallas.

[Rich Davis]

I mean, it's America's team.

[Monsieur]

It is America's team. And even though they haven't done anything.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, lock and load.

[Rich Davis]

They make money.

[Monsieur]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

Dallas.

[Ryan]

Nah, Give them another X. Sorry. Yeah, they're middle. They are middle of the pack. $9.71.

[Steve Covino]

Can I pick cheap ones now? Just.

[Monsieur]

What about Sofi?

[Steve Covino]

Oh, Sofi. Yeah. Lock it in la.

[Ryan]

Yes, monsieur. Got you guys back on the board.

[Steve Covino]

All right.

[Ryan]

They're also at $14. Like the 90s.

[Rich Davis]

So we got what, two out of five? Yeah, two out of five so far. We got one more strike. Top five. Most expensive beer at the stadium. What stadium is it?

[Steve Covino]

Let's. Let's. Let's talk this out.

[Ryan]

You guys need one and two.

[Rich Davis]

There's a number one that we haven't gotten.

[Ryan]

You haven't gotten the number one. One, two. Oh, those were tied for four, so one, two, and three. Raiders. You lock that in?

[Rich Davis]

He sounded excited.

[Steve Covino]

He sounded excited.

[Ryan]

It's my team.

[Steve Covino]

I mean, a cocktail in Vegas was $30. Yeah, it's Vegas. Lock it.

[Ryan]

Raiders are number two on the list.

[Steve Covino]

Get one good one, guys.

[Ryan]

$14.99. So now you need number one and number three.

[Steve Covino]

Hold on.

[Rich Davis]

15 bucks for a draft?

[Ryan]

Yep.

[Rich Davis]

That's crazy, dude.

[Steve Covino]

All right, well, follow my thinking here. We're not locking in Danny, so let me discuss.

[Rich Davis]

All right.

[Steve Covino]

I'm thinking of cities we go to where things are overpriced. South beach is. But the Dolphins are. Is that team historically known to overcharge? I don't know.

[Rich Davis]

How about Denver?

[Monsieur]

I was thinking Denver. That's funny that you said that. I actually was thinking Denver as well.

[Rich Davis]

But do they get discounts? Because, you know, a lot of beers made there so that maybe it's cheaper.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah, that might be the key. And people smoking weed in Denver.

[Ryan]

Sounds like you guys are overthinking this thing.

[Rich Davis]

You got one more strike.

[Ryan]

Yeah, one more strike. You need two more on the board here.

[Steve Covino]

Kansas City. Because of the success of the organization.

[Monsieur]

Kansas. What about Chicago? Because it's Chicago and it's one of the cities just based on the fact that it's Chicago Bears. I know they haven't had success, but.

[Steve Covino]

What are we locking in?

[Rich Davis]

Oh, hold on. New England. Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

They're on a down year, though. They have had a couple bad years.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. So they got to make their money somehow. Ticket sales are down.

[Steve Covino]

All right, let's not delay anymore. What, do we lock it in New England? Are we locking in Chicago?

[Rich Davis]

Let's lock in Chicago so we can blame it on Monty.

[Steve Covino]

Danny G. Chicago. No.

[Ryan]

They'Re on the outside looking in at $11.25. Number one is Washington.

[Rich Davis]

Washington, D.C. wow.

[Ryan]

The capital. $16.49.

[Steve Covino]

That's nuts.

[Ryan]

Tampa Bay is right after Vegas. $14.25.

[Steve Covino]

Damn.

[Rich Davis]

We wouldn't have guessed that.

[Steve Covino]

Tampa Bay. Now, the bottom feeders. The. We're getting giveaway beer.

[Rich Davis]

The cheapest brew.

[Steve Covino]

Ha. I am a good listener. Ask my wife. Just kidding. She'll say the opposite. But I somehow remember a year it could have been two years ago. Danny. We talked about how the city of Atlanta loves to keep the cost of their concessions down. And I remember going to the All Star game for baseball, and I was baffled how cheap the concessions were compared to other stadiums. So I imagine the Falcons do the same. I'm locking in Atlanta.

[Ryan]

You guys all agree on that?

[Rich Davis]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

They are not in the bottom five this season.

[Rich Davis]

You really hyped that up.

[Ryan]

I know.

[Monsieur]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

They're just on the outside looking in at $8.50.

[Monsieur]

He was not happy about that one.

[Rich Davis]

Wow.

[Steve Covino]

All right.

[Rich Davis]

Where do we go from here if that's not an answer? Because I do remember that, Rich.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Or maybe that was just baseball. I don't know.

[Ryan]

No, they. They famously have well priced concessions there in Atlanta.

[Rich Davis]

All right. Cheapest beer in the NFL.

[Steve Covino]

They can't get people to go to the game. So Jacksonville. Lock it in.

[Rich Davis]

Jacksonville. No.

[Steve Covino]

This is annoying.

[Ryan]

Sorry, buddy.

[Steve Covino]

You are the worst.

[Ryan]

Jacksonville's middle of the pack at $10.24.

[Rich Davis]

Do we want to go with the Denver theory?

[Steve Covino]

The Denver. There's a brewery. It's the home of Coors. But then you can say, where's the helm of Anheuser Busch? Well, there's no St. Louis, so. There's no St. Louis.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, there's no St. Louis.

[Monsieur]

Monty, what about the Panthers? What about in Carolina?

[Steve Covino]

Okay. Yeah. South. It's like, gee, how cheaper? Like, I'll lock it. You want to lock it? Monty, Panthers.

[Ryan]

Danny, you guys following the female like you usually do? No.

[Rich Davis]

Mossy blew it again.

[Steve Covino]

We have three strikes.

[Ryan]

$10.50.

[Steve Covino]

Who are the five bottom beers now?

[Ryan]

You were close with your thinking about Denver. They're number six at $8.30. Here are the five most affordable. The Colts coming in at $8.18.

[Steve Covino]

Oh, wow.

[Ryan]

The Vikings at $8.05.

[Rich Davis]

Oh.

[Ryan]

The Lions at $7.20.

[Rich Davis]

Wow.

[Ryan]

The Browns trying to get their fans inebriated. $7.15.

[Steve Covino]

And.

[Ryan]

And Cincinnati coming in with the most affordable draft at $6.80.

[Rich Davis]

Hey, Danny G. That's.

[Steve Covino]

That's. They don't want to. They don't want to pay their players and they don't want to, you know.

[Rich Davis]

No, but it's significant because Ohio, Washington is double.

[Ryan]

Yeah. At the top again, commander. 1649. Raiders 15 bucks. And Tampa Bay up there at 14.25. So.

[Rich Davis]

So those are the top five most expensive beer and or stadiums, I should say. And the top five lowest.

[Steve Covino]

Hope my picks do better this year than my picks on this.

[Rich Davis]

Thank you, Danny g. Thank you. BetMGM.

[Steve Covino]

Thank you, everybody. Yeah, thanks, Larry.

[Rich Davis]

Thank you.

[Steve Covino]

All right.

[Rich Davis]

You know, we sucked at that, by the way.

[Steve Covino]

Not like bad.

[Monsieur]

You can blame me.

[Steve Covino]

It was all me. That's okay, monsieur. I'm not blaming you. I take accountability.

[Rich Davis]

With Seth MacFarlane, the creator of Family Guy, talking about his new Frank Sinatra music project.

[Interviewee]

Anyone who loves music would salivate over something like this. The biggest question for us was, what's in these boxes? There were a few unplayed gems that we had been alerted to by Charlie Pinion of Sinatra Enterprises. So we knew that certain songs like Shadow of your Smile, which actually is not on this record, it'll be on the next one.

[Steve Covino]

Seth MacFarlane Don Rickles went up to.

[Interviewee]

Frank Sinatra and he said, listen, I'm gonna be having dinner with this lovely woman and I, you know, would you come over and say hi? And just so you know, because I feel like if she sees that I know you, it's gonna make me look really cool. And you know, I might have a good night. During the middle of dinner, Frank walks over and says, don, hi, how are you? And Don goes, frank, please, I'm in the middle of dinner.

[Rich Davis]

Rich Davis, everybody.

[Steve Covino]

I'm looking at all the lines are lit up. People want to play Chipotle worker or WNBA player. So why delay? I was going to tell you something about the Mets, but who cares? Let's play. Do it. Come on.

[Monsieur]

Are you going to get a Marie Brown jersey? Does she play in the wnba?

[Steve Covino]

Let's play a game that is clearly sweeping the nation. Chipotle worker or WNBA player.

[Rich Davis]

And our host, Danny G. Oh, man.

[Ryan]

Happy Friday.

[Rich Davis]

What up, buddy?

[Ryan]

All right, so we started this game a couple of seasons ago for the WNBA because everybody suddenly with Caitlin Clark was an expert on the league but didn't know any names of the players besides Caitlin Clark.

[Rich Davis]

I'm trying, though, Danny. Trying.

[Ryan]

No. We've learned a lot of names throughout this game, and we give props to Rich's favorite place to snag extra forks and napkins. Chipotle.

[Rich Davis]

You say snag, I say steal.

[Steve Covino]

You can't steal something that's not. That's not a price point.

[Rich Davis]

When you're stuffing handfuls in your backpack, I think that's stealing.

[Steve Covino]

Hey, monsi, when two burrito bowls are $40 or guac and I take a handful of like 10 forks and a big stack of napkins, is that stealing or getting my money's worth?

[Monsieur]

Getting your money's worth.

[Steve Covino]

Thank you.

[Rich Davis]

Have you seen the absurd amount of stuff?

[Monsieur]

You know, if he feels better about taking those forks, take those forks.

[Steve Covino]

Kavino likes defending a company that made $1.3 billion last year instead of his friends.

[Rich Davis]

I just think you're better than that. But anyway, Danny G. Yeah.

[Ryan]

Let's see how you do with this game. You can play along at home or in your car. And our contestant here, all they have to do is not come in last place against Covino, Rich, Monsieur and Ryan.

[Rich Davis]

No.

[Steve Covino]

I guess no one wants a warm beer.

[Monsieur]

Nobody wants a warm beer or just a warm drink.

[Rich Davis]

No one wants a cold hand when you're tailgating at a football game and.

[Monsieur]

Then you're shaking someone's ham necks and it's yeah, right.

[Rich Davis]

Hey, thanks for playing, man. We appreciate it. Congrats. Big winner heading into the holiday weekend. So again, it's an iou, which is just as good as money.

Might hit you up and hook you up. So thank you guys again for playing along. Chipotle worker or WNBA player?

[Steve Covino]

All right, you know what, let's get to it. The weekend's coming. Mony Update us. What's what's new in the world, you guys.

[Monsieur]

Everyone is still obviously talking about the Michael Parsons trade from going to Dallas to Green Bay. In fact, Brian Scheimer, Cowboys coach, spoke to the media today and nothing has changed.

[Rich Davis]

Nothing's changed. My goals haven't changed. Our team goals haven't changed. I hit the, the players on that today after I talked about, you know, just the, the tough couple days, you know, for all the guys and it doesn't change. You know, the standard is the standard.

[Monsieur]

The standard is the standard for the Cowboys. Other NFL news, Buccaneers running back Rashad White dealing with that groin injury. He returned to practice. He's expected to play in Week 1 against the Falcons. The Patriots have released safety Jabril Peppers when it comes to baseball, Mariners outfielder Victor Robles. Did you guys see he threw kind of a bat in rehab. He got mad at somebody, was suspended 10 games. He appealed it so that now he's serving a seven game suspension starting today. So that changed a little bit.

[Rich Davis]

How do you appeal?

[Steve Covino]

That wasn't me.

[Monsieur]

It wasn't me saying I was, I.

[Cerave Announcer]

I, I don't even remember it.

[Monsieur]

I just, I thought he was going to hit me in the head. I did that.

[Rich Davis]

I just sort of slipped out of my hand.

[Monsieur]

It slipped out of my hands forward in that direction.

[Steve Covino]

He's like, I'm really sorry. I'm really sorry. I'm really, really sorry.

[Monsieur]

Yeah, that's probably how Walker Bueller feels, but the Red Sox have released him anyway. Padre shortstop Xander Bogarts has been placed on the 10 day il with a non displaced fracture in his left foot. He's going to miss the rest of the regular season, but he could return for the postseason. And lastly, here we've got tennis going on. US Open 6 seed Ben Shelton retired with an apparent shoulder injury, so he is out after the third round. But three seed Carlos Alcaraz, he's headed to the fourth round. 17 seed Frances Tiafo lost in straight sets. On the women's side, four seed Jess Pegula. She's headed to the round of 16. 16 back to you guys.

[Steve Covino]

No, there was some drama at the Open House.

[Monsieur]

Did you see what happened?

[Steve Covino]

Yeah. That they.

[Monsieur]

Taylor Townsend, I think. Is that who you're talking about?

[Steve Covino]

Like trash. Trashy.

[Monsieur]

So this is what the girl she was playing against. I could give you. I looked into it. So the girl that she was playing against released a statement after and said that there was a net point that Taylor Townsend got and won the, like, it was a crucial point, and it touched the net. And I guess it's tennis. I don't know. Tennis rules, etiquette. Thank you. That's the word where you kind of just address that it touched the net and it was like, kind of luck on your side. And so that's what she was mad about, that she didn't. Yes. And called her, I think, uneducated. Called her, like, really?

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Ryan]

Let's see what happens when we get outside the state.

[Monsieur]

Yes, she said. And then Townsend. Taylor Townsend, I think is the girl's name that she American. She was like, you need to learn how to lose better or something. And, like, walked away. Be a better loser.

[Steve Covino]

I think my takeaway mom is that instead of all of us, my instinct is to lean into. Ooh, Feud. Exciting, Fun. But there's, of course, people on TikTok and Instagram that immediately go racial. This. That. Our instinct shouldn't be that all the time. Our instinct should be like, if you saw this interaction, which I watched it, I forgot exactly what they said.

[Rich Davis]

Must think juicy to me.

[Steve Covino]

I just said, like, wow, these women in the heat of the moment were getting it. Get it on.

[Monsieur]

Yeah. And it wasn't their first match together, you know, that probably was built up of something.

[Steve Covino]

No. Well, thank you, Muncie. Walker Bueller. Bueller. This is intriguing to me because, you know, a lot of times you feel like you're the only one, and you realize you're not like, man, my kids are the only ones that are pain in the ass when we go to a restaurant or something. You're like, no, that's everyone's kids. Every team is complaining that, like, yeah, our pitching's not deep. I think Walker Bueller could, like, your Yankees, my Mets, Danny, your Dodgers.

[Rich Davis]

Everyone complains about their bullpen.

[Steve Covino]

Everyone thinks their bullpen stinks. Everyone think everyone has the same complaints.

[Rich Davis]

It's not just you.

[Steve Covino]

I just think Walker Bueller, if he's not injured, I think it's low risk, high reward. If someone picks him up and they're not pulling the full price tag, I think it's worth it.

[Rich Davis]

Agreed. He's proven and he has composure and he could handle the big moment. We saw it less than a year ago. We saw it when the Dodgers won the World Series. He was the guy and now he's out there. I'm hoping to Yankees scoop him up. I'm serious.

[Steve Covino]

Do you, do you look at how a guy ends a season or the total body of work? I heard last night Gary Cohen on the Mets game on the SNY telecast saying that if Mark Viento Swaggy V, if he finishes the way he's playing, everyone will forget that he had a terrible first few months. Do you, do you feel like you don't look at the body of work like September, October, Baseball is really what matters.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah. Momentum.

[Steve Covino]

Yeah.

[Rich Davis]

Heading into the postseason for sure.

[Steve Covino]

No doubt. Well, hey, your thoughts on any mlb. We'll take your feedback next. Plus we'll get it to Weekend Hobnobbin. So baseball, football, huge college football and what to watch streaming this weekend. We'll do that all next with Weekend Hobnobbing. Covino and Rich.

All right, who's it gonna be? I think it's kind of easy. No one had a bigger night. He had a full week in one night. And now he's at.248 with 49 home runs, 119 RBI. Kyle Schwaber of the Phillies started off his Thursday with 44 with 45 home runs, now has 49 home runs. And the guy's just hitting bombs, just teeing off four home runs in one game. Only the 21st player to ever do that, Kyle Schwarber, is your Express Pros Pro of the Week. What a night, huh?

[Steve Covino]

You know, I. I think Schwarbs is such a fun player to watch bombs.

[Rich Davis]

Like, who wouldn't want that guy on your team? 119 ribby's.

[Steve Covino]

You know, it's a weird phenomenon. Sometimes the team you're supposed to hate has guys on it that you have a hard time hating. As a Mets fan, hard to hate Schwaber and Bryce Harper. But hey, when push comes to shove, I'll hate him. Yeah, yeah, but like, I. It's very hard to hate those guys.

[Rich Davis]

But it's a rare MLB fee. He reached it last night. Good for him.

[Steve Covino]

Now it's time we do it every Friday. We get into the weekend with Weekend Hobnobbin. Living for the weekend. You're winning bets for talking points.

[Rich Davis]

If you get stuck socializing.

[Steve Covino]

You ever done anything dangerous? You ever danced with the devil in the pale moonlight?

[Ryan]

That is dangerous.

[Rich Davis]

Friday brings us Weekend Hobnob Whistle. Go.

[Steve Covino]

Woo.

[Rich Davis]

It's what you need to Watch in the world of sports and entertainment this Labor Day weekend. Weekend hobnobbing Labor Day Weekend Edition. I'll kick it off. This is for the fight fan that loves a goofy spectacle or lives that YouTube influencer life or just follows the UFC because salt poppy is fighting this weekend against former f UFC legend Tony Ferguson. So Salt Poppy versus Tony Ferguson in his first boxing bout. And Darren Till and Luke Rockhold also on that card. That's on the zone, I believe. The zone Pay per view this Saturday. So more of a spectacle, but something to watch. Thunderbolts Sexy. Ryan, are you a fan of this? Are you aware of Thunderbolts on Disney plus this weekend?

[Ryan]

Theaters?

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, apparently it's less Avengers, more group therapy with weapons. And that's on Disney plus over the weekend I've been talking about it. If you're watching Hard Knocks, enjoy that. But if you're not watching America's Team after all the Dallas Cowboys drama, you're really missing out. And you're missing out on what makes Jerry Jones tick. It might explain a lot of what happened this week. America's Team definitely worth the watch because we all grew up just watching the Cowboys dominate the 90s is called the Gambler and His Cowboys on Netflix. Danny G. Approved. And I personally suggest over promised our bonus podcast. You could watch it.

[Steve Covino]

It was a really fun episode this week. So honestly, I would recommend our video pod. It's like a TV show. It's 22 minutes, it's quick, it's fun. You will love it.

[Rich Davis]

And there's 106 episodes and a brand new one available. It's YouTube.com covinoenrichfsr At Covinoenrich FSR we talk politics and sports. There's a Mark Teixeira story, Gross Habits in Sports starring Freddie Freeman. And we discussed sports and sexy time. Sports and sexy time on Over Promise. Definitely subscribe.

[Steve Covino]

Monty, would you be offended if you were getting it on and there was sports on a TV in the background?

[Monsieur]

No, I would not be offended.

[Steve Covino]

Okay, what if he popped his head over your shoulder to see what the score was?

[Monsieur]

Then don't get mad if I pop to see how the the Clippers are doing. You know what I'm saying?

[Rich Davis]

Well, we talk about it on Over Promise.

[Steve Covino]

Hey, this weekend you may not have seen it in 1975 when it came out in theaters because you weren't alive yet. Maybe. But JAWS, the 50th anniversary JAWS is in theater. So it might be cool to see a legendary movie like that remastered on.

[Rich Davis]

The big screen by the way 50 years. Happy anniversary. That's insane. Classic.

[Steve Covino]

I'm gonna take my daughter. I'm doing a little daddy daughter thing and we're gonna go see Freak. Freaky or Friday. Oh, fun at the theater. So freaky or Friday. I think Sunday afternoon he's going to.

[Rich Davis]

[Steve Covino]

[Ryan]

Yeah, thumbs up.

[Rich Davis]

Yeah, two thumbs up.

[Steve Covino]

So freakier Friday. Now I watch this a little bit. Lesson. It's two and a half hours, I believe. So I didn't watch it all in one pop. But Kill Tony, live from Madison Square Garden, is on Netflix.

[Rich Davis]

So, dude, can I say props to Timmy? No breaks.

[Steve Covino]

Timmy. No breaks is all gas. No breaks. So kill Tony. Madison Square Garden. It's his third time. He sold out the Garden and they videoed it and recorded for you for Netflix. So kill Tony. And of course I'm gonna watch America's Team because these knuckleheads told me and.

[Rich Davis]

It looks really good and so good.

[Steve Covino]

I just. I'm having a hard time getting around to anything. I'm at that stage where every day, you know when you. By the time it's like it's bedtime and you're like, wow, God. Late. Can't watch anything. I'm falling asleep.

[Rich Davis]

So maybe, maybe lay off on the edibles.

[Steve Covino]

I haven't even. I don't even need him anymore. I'm that tired. I'm that tired. But besides that, a lot of college football.

[Ryan]

Yeah.

[Steve Covino]

You want to highlight some of the ones you're watching.

[Ryan]

What a week one for college football. Number one, Texas. At number three, Ohio State. Number eight, Alabama at Florida State. Montana State at number seven, Oregon. Number nine, LSU at number four, Clemson. Utah at UCLA, Virginia Tech at number 13. South Carolina. Number six. Number six, Notre Dame at number 10, Miami. That's going to be great. And then Monday night, TCU at Bill Belichick in his North Carolina Tar Heels.

Alabama, Florida State looks like a fun one, too.
