I mean, we're glad you're listening, but watch it later when you're doing the bowl scroll later on. You know, don't do the bull scroll too much. I just read an article. Yeah. That because so many people are lazy and just sit on the bowl and scroll. Yeah. Cases of hemorrhoids are up. Oh, boy. Not even joking. Should we invest in not even Preparation H? I'm saying maybe that's the key. Don't both scroll too long. Broadcasting live from the Fox Sports Radio studio. And again, you can watch us on YouTube. Covino and Rich, FSR. YouTube, Steve Covino, Rich Davis, Danny G, Iowa, San DB and Spot. And we be rocking out. Now, let me ask you this. Have you ever wanted to try an Olympic and Paralympic sport? Try fencing. Fast, safe, easy to start. Find a beginner class near you@usafencing.org you don't say. That's usafencing.org trifencing. You know what's cool about that is I don't know a whole lot about fencing, but I feel like every TV show I watched growing up, someone was trying it out and I always felt like I wanted to right then you always see like some TV character like Ricky Schroeder or something. Oh, Sam, you took fencing. We had free fencing lessons offered at Iowa's University of Iowa's Field House. And I'd go Wednesday nights for a couple years. Yeah, it was cool. Are you saying that you have skills? It's been a while. Wow. We enter you in a contest of hungard fencing expertise. Fencing's dope, though. And remember, guys, you could stream the show wherever, whenever, Shakira style. Whenever, wherever. But with a lightsaber on the iHeartRadio app. You can stream us wherever you go with the iHeartRadio app. And you could preset it just like the radio. Make us number one make number 24 7. We're available on the iHeartRadio app. Cavino and Rich. And stick around. Cause we got prizes to give away. This hour. Mike's Wednesday words of wisdom in just a few minutes. And of course, midweek, major spots got the biggest stories in sports and pop culture. But the weakest, most miserable story of the day is Charlie Kirk. If you just got out of work or you missed it somehow, he did pass away today. He was shot on a Utah campus. And it's just a really sad story, man. And I'm wondering now, is it gonna unite us or divide us? It's. I'm really wondering. It's an interesting question. Yeah, I'm really wondering. And look, I'll focus on the positive. The one thing that does unite us is sports. So that's why this is fun to talk about, fun to be here. Football, baseball, fencing, you know, take our mind off of that. You've got fencing in there, huh? Fencing? Yeah. I mean, now that I know that, are you putting that behind hot dog eating now or in front of hot dog eating? Is it the fourth or fifth major sport, say the top five? Anyone know that Sam was the guy? I didn't know. No, I found that. Get this. Are you surprised? You ever find out a skill about someone. This is interesting. And you know what? I'm going to save it for a second because there's a kind of ties into Javier and I. You know what it reminds me of, Rich? It reminds me of when Kramer was taking karate lessons, but he was fighting those little kids. That's. I was saying Sam was fighting little kids. I was saying tell you, it was against second graders. I was the little kid facing adults. You know what? I have a thought. And it has to do with almost like niche specialized sports. But. But you know what? Let's try to get a winner from Mike's words of wisdom and then I will give you my thought because it's interesting. You're right. You would never have thought I was. Sam was a fencer. But I have an angle. So hang tight, but let's do this. Mike's words of wisdom. It's time for the guy that runs this place. Just for clarification, guys, Big Mike does not run this place. He is not in charge of everything. He has no power over really anybody here. He does not run this place. It's Big Mike's words of wisdom on a Wednesday. You are what you do, not what you promise you'll do. Character is defined by deeds, not words. How's it? Long one. I'll say. That's what she said. What is it? Want to play one more time? No. No. Okay, fine. The name of the game is to repeat it verbatim, but we usually do play it twice, though if it's longer. Not. Come on, Big Mike. You are what you do, not what you promise you'll do. Character is defined by deeds, not words. I like that. That's why we bring Mike to the show. It's not fair that only we were exposed to his wisdom all the time. We wanted to share that with you guys, make the world a better place. Humanity needs help. 8, 7, 799 on Fox. If you could repeat those words verbatim. Those are just words. They're like golden words for Mike. Those are words of wisdom. You got a Fox Sports Radio Cavito and Rich Nerf football just in time for foosball season as we enter week two in a day. Can you believe that? We got the Charlie Sheen documentary tonight winning. Stop fibbing, Rich. They're not even ordered yet, but we'll give you an iou. And we picked out just the right football. It's gonna be a sweet one, by the way. For those who've been with us for a minute. We had bribery balls. One of our first prizes. These footballs are different, so if you won in the past, you're going to get a different football, which is kind of cool. So we're going to give away prizes. If you could repeat that word for word. See? Word for word. So 8 7, 7, 9, 9 on Fox. While we get your phone calls, let's talk about. Yo. Chris Boswell of the Pittsburgh Steelers. And this ties into. I was Sam letting you know that he fenced. I just oddly have two stories where one actually when you don't know people, when they grow up, when you meet them as an adult, co workers, parents at the school, you end up meeting people you have no clue about their freaking childhood. I recently found out one of the dads who I see at school, he did like, gymnastics in college. And I saw a picture of him like, you know when you. When you're like pushing yourself up on two rings, like, oh, yeah. And I'm like, wait, that's you? He was showing bulge and in like, bulges shorts. Yeah. And I have a friend that's like, yeah. When I used to dive in high school, my dive in high school. What do you mean? She's like, yeah, like I were you like Jacques Cousteau? I was like, she told me she used to be Able to do, like, two flips into a dive. I'm like, oh, like Thornton Mellon. I'm like, you kidding me? Like Greg Louganis. And it got me thinking about, like, niche sports and. And things you would never think. Olympic sports. Sounds like you're describing Olympics. Yes. Things that you would never think someone you know did. Like. Like, I had a buddy that played water polo in college. I'm like, wait, you're treading water that whole time? Did my wife used to throw the shot put, Rich? She did not. Yes, she did. But no, I did the pole vault, and I got my junk stunt, remember? Oh, wait, that was. That was not me, Neil. You know what? It's kind of cool, because you know what it is in a weird way? Is it cornering the market? Because not everyone's going for that. I have the best story. You. You thought you had the best story. I have the best story ever, I think. And again, we're going to tell you about Chris Boswell, kicker of the Steelers, in a minute. Yeah. But I think the best story was actually told to us by a guy named Ariel Helwani. He was on our show, and I said, ariel, how'd you get, like, so locked into the fight world? I'm a big fight fan, but how'd you get so locked and connected to UFC and everything like that? And Ariel said to us, you know, really, I'm a baseball guy, and I always wanted to be a baseball broadcaster. I believe he was an Expos fan, like a Montreal guy. Right. And he was, like, you know, huge baseball fan, also a Syracuse graduate. And I saw an opportunity to be the only guy that cared about mixed martial arts in this way. I. I saw an opportunity to be the voice of mixed martial arts in ufc because no one else was doing it. He ingratiated himself to that fan base. So he said, all right, I always love baseball, but there's more opportunity if I take a chance on being that guy and hoping that this sport blows up. And as it blows up, my career will also advance. And he took that chance. Took the road less traveled. Yeah. And that's made all the difference. I'm sure there's someone that said, let me attach myself to. To the WNBA or someone that said, you know what? Banana ball. Savannah bananas. Maybe I'll be, like, the main correspondent. Like, there's, you know, when you take a chance on something niche or niche, it will sometimes pay off. And I think Ariel Helani is a great example. Yeah. He took a gamble on UFC becoming what it is today, and you know, took that ride with Dana White and mixed martial arts. As the sport grew, he became more valuable as a broadcaster, but he saw the opportunity. He's also having that wherewithal and that foresight, that John foresight to make that move and make that gamble and believe in yourself. I'm a, I'm a believer in looking for those little opportunities. Right. Because the other opportunities are oversaturated. That's the point. Yeah, like, you know what, it's sort of, it's, it's sort of the theory of like, not everyone could be the quarterback. And the Boswell story is interesting. You know, the, the assassin who just kicked a 60 yard field goal to beat the Jets. That was insane. The guy who, Mike Tomlins, like, he's cold blooded, honestly. Aaron Rodgers owes him an edible Arrangement. A steak dinner. I was going to say steak dinner. Yeah, like something like, seriously, like, I think he's like, listen, man, you helped me win the first game against my former team. Steak dinner on Aaron Rodgers. 60 yard field goal. And the story Jenny, Danny G hit us up with was when he was in high school, they went around the locker room and said, what do you want to be? What position are you trying out for? What's your name? What position? What's your thing? And he said like, Chris Boswell, I want to be the place kicker. And everybody laughed at him and the coach, and everyone's like, that's it. You know, I kind of relate because when I was a little kid and all the other kids stood up and they're like, I want to be a fireman. I want to be a policeman. I stood up proudly said, I want to be an ass man. And everybody laughed and every. And everybody laughed. But I'm the greatest. You're the ass man. I am an ass man. I am an ass man. What? You said astronaut. No, no, no. An ass man. And everyone laughed, but I meant it. And look at me now. So think about that. He's like, yo, I am Chris Boswell and I want to be a kicker. And I was like, kicker? What a lame. Oh, you want to have one stupid face mask bar, you loser. Reggie Roby. And they all laughed at him. But when you think about it, he had his, his career set and mindset on something that people don't normally, like, gravitate to. Not an easier path, but just a more unique path. But I think that makes all the difference. Like we said before, as I quoted Robert Frost, but you wouldn't know that because you're a cave boy. Last book I read was where the wild things are. Yeah. I think about this a lot when I coach kids. Right. Because I coach my daughter softball 8U. I coach my son's little Shetland T ball team. And I do see some of the kids gravitating towards like, hey, coach, can I try catching? And I'm like, you know, at that age, if you're the kid that's brave enough to put on the gear and catch, you might find yourself on the all star team, no one else. You might find yourself to be the kid that everyone looks to as time goes on and everyone gets older. It's like a specialty position. Yeah. You could very well be the kid moving forward that when everyone else is fighting over like, I want to be shortstop, I want to pitch, I want to. And by my best Ben just in sports, we le. We live in a place where niche is the mainstream. Meaning if you really want to make an impact in broadcasting, in podcasting, in life, being mainstream isn't going to be it. Good luck there. It's finding the niche that's your path to success. Nowadays in, in our world and in and in sports, I think you have a better chance of saying early on, I want to be a catcher and then making it because there's less options with catchers. Yeah, lefty catchers, guys like Cal Raleigh, listen, switch hitting catchers. They're so few and far between. You also need a passion for sport. But I did find the list recently, and I'm sure I'm not the first person that gave this list a look and said, huh, it was what sports are the easiest to get full ride scholarships for. And it's like, you know, like women's field hockey or certain sports. You want to look at your kids and be like, hey, kiddo, how do you feel about this one? Because there are paths you could take that have some good opportunities. And to know that Boswell was a guy early on that he's like, no, I'm not trying to. I'm not faking the funk. I'm not a place. I'm not a quarterback, I'm not a running back. I'm not trying to be a wide receiver. I'm kicking, Please. Yeah. And it led to a great moment this past weekend and a really cool story. No one else wanted to do that. So there's so many ways to look at this. Is it positions that people just don't respect but yet are still important. And when I say don't respect, I mean because you really don't want to play them. When You're a kid. Did you really want to be a catcher? Hell, no. Yeah. Do you want to be a long snapper? But if you focus on that specialty, you have a greater chance of making it. It's a good way to solidify a position in life, a position at your office. You got to be able or be willing to take on those things that not everybody wants to do to solidify your position. It's a great way to separate yourself. And props to Boswell for. I keep wanting to say Bosworth. Props to Chris Boswell for recognizing that at a really early age, like I said, Rich, if you were set out to do a podcast right now, and you're like, well, what's your podcast about? And you said, you know, everything. Guy stuff, sports and women. Good luck. But if you said, yeah, I'm gonna specialize in fish sticks, you have a greater chance of making a success out of that niche subject. I mean, we've been to be vague and main and quote, unquote, mainstream. I mean, luckily, I guess for us that we were sort of grandfathered. Hey, we do just a show, right? But if you were starting from scratch now, if some young intern or producer was like, you have to do this. What do you think I should do in today's world? Like, I would almost be like, dude, do a podcast only on the LA Kings. Do it. Exactly. Do a podcast only about hot dog eating. I don't know anyone that's doing one. Exactly. It has to be that to make it. And then you find your audience there. Yeah, you have to if you want to make it in sports, man. Yeah. Being a kicker, being a catcher. Is there anything else that stands out? Like that underrated scholarship potential? They're saying diving, swimming, field hockey are very high on the list. And also more obscure track and field stuff like shot put, you know, javelin and stuff that you'd be like, really? Okay. The field part of track and field. The field of the track and field, yes. So just a reminder that not everyone is, as they say in the band, not everyone's the lead singer. You need a bass player. Not everyone's a quarterback, a shortstop or pitcher. You need the place kicker. You need a tambourine man. You need a tambourine man. And I also think that it's cool for Chris Boswell to tell that story because he was laughed at, but he was a hero this past weekend, so it's a great story for kids. Hey, look at him. Everybody laughed at him. Look at Matt Prater. He looked like a reject from Fallout Boy. And he was the hero of Sunday Night Football. Yep, with his 20 something year old guy haircut. All right, let's say here's to you, Chris Boswell. Let's say hi to Ray in Jackson, Tennessee. Ray, you there? I am. Yes, sir. Hey, Ray. All right, so we're gonna play. Well, actually, we're not gonna play it. We're gonna queue you up here. Let it simmer. And if you can repeat Mike's words of wisdom, you get that. Nerf football. All right, buddy. Yeah, we'll play the music. Same music you need the words for? Make you sound smart. Here, let me find my flute. Hold on a second. Go ahead, Ray. Let it simmer. Okay. Really nice. Kavina, you are what you do, not what say you'll do. Oh, no. Plus, Danny interrupted him. He was like, sorry, buddy. Hey, there's always next week. He didn't get it, though. It's got to be verbatim. We started the race at the same time. Ashton and Charlotte, you ready? Ashton, Hello. Yeah. You ready to do this or what? Yes, sir, I'm ready. All right, take it away. You are what you do, not what you promise you'll do. Character is defined by these, not words. Yes. Yeah. That's a winner. He got it. Hey, good job, buddy. Hey, Ashton, you just won yourself a bribery ball. A new one. A new and updated Nerf football. And as soon as we get our shipment, we'll be sending them out. Koozies in there too. It's an IOU, Ashton. Those are IOUs. Congratulations, Ashton. Appreciate it. Thank you. Good job, Ashton. I feel like he's wiser just for playing the game. That's what I feel as well. Well, listen, we got spots, words of. Spot has the words of wisdom. Spot has midweek major coming up, we'll go over the hottest stories in the world of sports and entertainment. Plus, Dan Byers got an update. Maybe some NFL on some injuries before we move on, though, don't you feel like you were taking the pat. Les traveled by when you said, I want to be a radio tycoon. And then look what happened. Everyone thinks they're a broadcaster now. It's the weirdest thing. It is interesting. Yeah. That's why I always felt like when I chose this, and I did, I chose to be on a microphone and, well, I thought I was gonna be playing music for the rest of my life. Right. Metallica on kroc. I felt like how unique I am to be that guy. And now everyone does it in their socks, in their basement. Everyone's got Fun. So. And everyone thinks they deserve to be on a microphone. What was that quote? We saw that the girl that's gone viral. Oh, there's a girl. She's like. I had a friend once tell me, don't love your job, job, your love. And the podcast host was like, oh, I love that. Oh, I love it. I love it. Don't you hear me, guys? Don't love your job, job, your love. And the worst part about it, Dani, is Camino's right? The other person was like, oh, my God, I love that. Love what? That res. Ridiculous, nonsensical. Not everyone deserves a microphone. I know we're two buffoons having fun, but not everyone deserves a microphone. Now that this makes sense. Because over the weekend, you promoted the best of the week. Yes. And that was the bubble caption over Rich's big head. Yeah, Rich is thinking that. I was so confused, I'm like, what does that mean? Oh, yeah, don't love your job, job, your love. It's all about work, life, balance. Wait, wait, wait. I love that. Yeah, I know, I know. Write it down. Guys, you know what? Love that. And love midweek major, which you should use that on your fishstick podcast. Oh, you. You'll see. It's gonna be big, Danny G. You can produce it if you want. All right, we got more Covino and Rich next right here, Fox Sports Radio. Hang tight. All right, we gotta talk about our good friends at tcl. Yo, Rich, my boy. Football's back.

You know, when I go back to my Home Steakhouse. I really, like, know nothing about my hometown. Yeah. And Spot brother J. Rock was an MC at the Jersey Shore, and he was a pretty popular guido growing up. Yeah, you're not even the most popular person in your family, Right? It's kind of. Anyway, back to you. I was just stalling here. All right, so Sophie Cunningham. Cunningham, I assume, is calling out Chicago Skies. Angel Reese. Ooh, I like this already. Her public comments on her team's shaky season. So on this week's episode of her Show Me Something podcast, Cunningham said that Reese's comments should be kept to the locker room. Reese's apologized for her comments since on the team. You know, when she commented on the team's performance and the team's roster, Cunningham said, I'm a very team first person always put the team before my feelings. And I think that should be a standard. You can't be saying everything you're feeling because that's not a good look. And went on to say that public drama only causes a division in the locker room. And she said there should be some sort of consequence for it, maybe even a fine. So midweek or major? I think it's major. Definitely major. I love drama. That's what keeps the WNBA going without. Without Caitlin Clark. You see the ratings. You see everything has dropped dramatically. So I think you keep these little storylines going. Angel Reese, Sophie Cunningham. I. I think Angel Reese calling out the team is. It is not a good look. That's. It's like immaturity. I think that. I think there should be a fine involved. So I'm team Sophie Cunningham on this one. Well, when Rich and I agree, it's gotta be fat. You can't be talking smack about your team like that. Can't be talking smack about your team. That's a given, right? That's sports 101. Definitely major. Keep it in the locker room. But where I really agree with you, Rich, is the WNBA needs the drum. I'm sorry, without it, not enough people care. I'm not saying people don't care, but not enough people care. So lean into it all you can. Those rivalries, the smack talk, it's great for the sport. It really is cool. All right. Musician Morgan Wallen, known for doing his walkouts at his concerts, usually showing him walking out of the tunnel with someone from the city he's performing in when he's on his tour. Well, Monday night, Morgan Wallen decided to invite former Blue Jays slugger Jose Bautista to join him ahead of the second night. I saw this of his. I'm the problem tour at the Rogers center in Ontario. So while they were walking pause to do Batista's iconic bat flip. And he did a little swing, tossed the bat. What he didn't realize was off to the side, Batista's wife Nisha was filming. And in the video seen on social media, the bat is flipped directly into the camera. It's like POV right to the face. And so she went on. She actually. The pair actually continued. They didn't realize what was going on. They just kept walking out of the tunnel. But she posted the video on her social media, joking and saying that she is okay. Acknowledges it was an accident midweek or major. I mean, to the face, roofnet or door style for a Batista. I saw this video and I'm like, my God, I teach my kids when I coach five and six year olds, like, hold the bat, put it down, don't swing it around other people, don't throw it. What did he think was gonna happen? You think he gives his willy nilly throw a bat? I mean, you don't expect anybody to be back there backstage. I mean, hit his wife, of all people. I say this is. I think it's pretty major. I mean, she's okay. So it's sort of mid, I guess, kind of major too. Safety first. There was a really famous Gary Sanchez clip a few years back where someone's swinging in the batter's box, almost hits him in the face. I do remember that. Yeah, missed him by an inch. Gotta be careful there. And Morgan Wallen, good for him. All right, cool. So Travis Kelsey, new episode of the New Heights podcast came out. Of course, there's always revelations on that. Speaking out about the Xavier Worthy injury from Friday night's Chiefs Charger season opener in Brazil. He's taking full accountability for the play in which he rammed into Worthy shoulder. He said, I wasn't ready for the first drive. I ran into one of my guys and offed him out of the game. It's hard to get your juices back going knowing that you just hurt a guy. He spoke about how frustrating it is, went on to say, I've got to be better. I'm 13 years in the league. There's no excuse for me running into my own guys like that. There's no word on whether Worthy is how he's doing. Actually, Andy Rita did speak out today saying that he doesn't plan on having a season ending injury. He's currently rehabbing the shoulder. So he may be back on the field sooner than you think. But Kelsey Wanted to say he could barely play for the rest of the half until he found out that Worthy was in good spirits and said he owes this guy 1. Midweek or major? I mean, major. Definitely major crossing route. You bump into your guy. It happens. Fact that Kelsey addressed it, I think shows maturity, but I think Kelsey's got bigger things on his mind because him and Mahomes just opened the steakhouse. I know. I saw that. 1587, they just had the. The opening and they have the big yeti drink. Drink named after Kelsey. And Mahomes has a drink beside. He's got so many things going on. It's another one called the Alchemy. Yeah. I think there's just so much going on in his life. The fact that he addresses a bigger story. In fact, I think they need to focus on football. What happened in 1587? I don't know what happened in 1580s. Are you thinking of the Great Stink of 1868? Are you? I'm joking. I know. It's their numbers. I know. I'm trying to think of. I can't. I don't have much history. Some bad stuff happened in 1587. Stinky stuff. You had me thinking about him. But anyway, I think it is major. Rich and I are 3 for 3. I actually agree with him on everything. I think it's a major story. Kelce's a major star. And the fact that he's 13 years in the league and we're seeing that maturity and the fact that you still could learn a few things and want to improve 13 years into the league, I think is a testament to his dedication to the sport. Definitely. Oh, yeah. Oh, and by the way, 1587, Sam, that began the decline of the Ming dynasty, in case you were curious. That's why it's named after. All right. It's very big. All right. Mike Tyson, our guy Mike Tyson appeared on the latest episode of the Katie Miller podcast, who had made some interesting revelations. So on the serious side, we'll touch on that. First, he talked a lot about how during his time, the heyday when he was boxing, he was using the drug fentanyl to handle pain during his career. At the time, it was very unknown. It was illegal to use. But he said, and not many people had heard of it, but he was using it to mask the pain. And he said once you get off of it, you start withdrawing and the pain just comes back. So he was using it regularly. On the fun side, we'll switch to that. Miller asked at the end if he'd Rather be forced to watch the Notebook, the movie the Notebook every Friday night or never watch sports again. And we found out in that moment that the Notebook is one of Mike Tyson's favorite films. He says he regularly watches it. Loves the movie, loves the love story. So midweek or Major, I mean anything with Mike Tyson, I'll call major. I love Mike Tyson. Definitely Major. The fact that he loves the Notebook just adds to me liking him more. I love the Notebook. I think that story, that whole story that you just told there spot totally encapsulates why we love Mike Tyson. Because he has these issues, clearly with fentanyl. And at the same time, like I love the Notebook, he's a very flawed man, but also has this weird vulnerable side where you love him like Mike Tyson's a man that you could equally be. Like, what the hell's wrong with this guy? And like I love him. I love romantic comedy. I love Rachel McAdam dingo. I love the Love Boat. I love love. Serendipity is my favorite movie. There you go. Any other quickies? Squeeze in one more. So Peyton Manning has revealed that he's setting his sights very high when it comes to guests of the Manning Cassie host with his brother. So during Monday night season debut between the Vikings, during the Vikings Bears game, Peyton told his brother Eli that he did everything he could to secure not all his holiness Pope Leo XIV as a guest on the Manning cast. So the American born Pope is from Chicago, self proclaimed sports fan, Bears fan I assume. Definitely a White Sox fan. He said, you know, he joked kind of like when he failed to recruit Randy Moss to Tennessee, he couldn't close the Pope. He showed that he wrote two handwritten letters, one to the pope, one to the Pope's assistant trying to get him on the show. So he went on to make a plea directly on the Manning cast saying that there's an open invite for the Pope to come by anytime in week or major. Well, I mean the Pope does like Chicago sports team. Hey, maybe he was watching. Maybe he was watching early morning in Italy. I'll say this, a handwritten letter goes a long way. When someone writes you a handwritten letter, there is something a little more personal. So the fact that Peyton Manning, I saw the letter, it was like two pages of his penmanship, like dear, dearest Pope Peyton here, my dearest dumpling bump and I, I don't think he'll get him, but that would be wild. I think it's, I think never say never. I, I think it's major. You know, Travis If Kelsey got Taylor Swift just from shooting his shot, they could shoot their shot with the Pope and make it happen. I think it's power of the letter. I think it's major Camino, if he gets the Pope, I think him reaching out is. But how do you do it? You gotta. You gotta throw it out there, right? So it's the power of the written letter, but also the power of simply asking people. I think he's on the right track. I think it's possible. I don't think it's impossible to get the Pope to be on the podcast. Thanks, guys. Really cool. All right. With that, let's go to our friend and yours, Dan Byer for an update. Db, what's going on, man? Guys, just a heads up. Utah Valley University canceling their men's soccer match tonight with UC Davis following the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk on the school's campus earlier today. Match is not going to make up. They are going to not play this evening. Continued police presidents on the campus because of today's circumstances. In NFL news, 49ers head coach Kyle Shanahan says quarterback Brock Purdy is a long shot to play in Week 2 against the Saints because of toe and shoulder injuries. Purdy didn't practice today with Shanahan saying Purdy could miss multiple games because of the injury. Steelers signed free agent safety Jabril Peppers. Multiple reports say that free agent edge rusher Jadevi and Clowney visited with the Cowboys today while the packers gave wide receiver Christian Watson a one year extension. He's now under contract through the 20th. 2026 season day baseball saw the Rangers beat the Brewers 6 3. Sweeping that three game set. Texas keeping pace with the Mariners for the final wild card in the AL. Just a game back and they're just two back of the Astros for first place in the AL West. A's top the Red Sox 54 by scoring in the bottom of the ninth inning today in Sacramento. While the Mets got a little breathing room. Giants fell to the Diamondbacks today five to three. So San Francisco falls two and a half back of the Mets for the final wild card in the nl. Entering tonight, veteran first baseman Anthony Rizzo retiring after seasons, most notably a member of that Cubs World series team in 2016. He'll be honored at Wrigley this weekend. Guys, back to you, Dan Beyer. Thanks, buddy. Thank you, man. Let's go. Anyone that plays the Giants, Dodgers, Dodgers this weekend. Rizzo also honored at Yankee Stadium yesterday. He just happened to be there to watch that horrific game and the Fans gave him a nice round of applause. He had a great props to him. Chug a beer or something. Yeah, he chugged a beer on the Jumbotron. Listen, the guy is a, as I believe Dan Patrick would say, like hall of fame. Very good. Gold Glover. But how does Rizzo. You don't. You guys don't feel like Rizzo like called it a day. Young, was he injured a lot? 34. 34 years. Yeah. That's young. Is it really just a. And yeah, he sort of fell off. He had a few good years with the Yankees last year was just that he battled ninjas injuries. Just think. To think though, that Cubs 2016 World Series is almost 10 years ago. So time's just flying and we're forgetting like oh yeah, his last notable play was that that Garrett Cole mix up is kind of tough, but he still had a great career. Well, you know, and I'll always like him for that one. All right. Hey, we got more Kavino and Rich next right here on Fox Sports Radio Wednesday. Let's go. I'm Marcus Grant. And I'm Michael F.

Like, aside from the whole terrible Charlie Kirk story. Horrible. I didn't even get to give my fan etiquette one. Oh, I got to hear it. But did you see there was a Colorado high school shooting today? Oh, geez. Ever. I think I believe it's called Evergreen High School. Four people injured so far. Horrible. So I tied in. Like, yeah, we got to be better not only in life, but at the stadium and in sports. We talked about that midweek. Major Dan, what was your. What was your fan etiquette? Improvement. We were at the all star game in Atlanta. There was kids in the row with me with the MLB people, and the row in front of us, there was a couple. They kept taking out their vape pen and doing the big puff, billowy smokes, and it was like, going right to the kids. I'm like, what are you doing? Go to the. Go to the restroom and do that. Yeah, but who vapes? What are we doing? What are we doing? Was that the name of the conversation? That was that. That's how I label this whole thing. Like, what are we doing? A bunch of people around kids. We're not trying to stifle your fun, you know, hey, have all your fun, but do it respectfully. Read the crowd. Look around you. I'm with you on that. I'm not telling you. Don't care. I'm not telling you. Don't vape, don't smoke weed. Don't do whatever you want to do. I'm just saying, like. Like at a stadium, just in row G, you're just gonna break out a vape pen. It's gonna sound like bubblegum weed or whatever you got going on. I hope some of these undercover Seahawks cops are, you know, trying to change things here. That was the other story. Don't you wish sometimes that you were an undercover officer of the law when you. What. What time? Yeah, we grew up with 21 Jump Street Fox. When do you wish that the most? Is it when you're on, like, the 101 or the high whatever highway or byways in your hometown and you see some jo, like, weaving and speeding in and out of lanes? I see people drive through red lights all the time, every day. Don't you wish you could just be like, citizens arrest. I felt badly. I flip these people off. I'm like, just a red light. Well, you could do that, Sam, because you have. You have that fencing sword in case something. You keep that in your back seat just in case. Right on guard. I don't have a weapon, so I kind of keep my mouth shut. But if you missed that story, too. Seahawks. At the Seahawks games, there's cops there undercover in the opposing team's jerseys just to, like, sort of police things and keep things safe and rich. Before we go, what are your thoughts on Brock Purdy? And the long shot of him playing, I say he shouldn't be playing at all. If there's a question at hand here, I think you rest him. Now's the time to rest him and give your boy Jones a shot. Mac Jones filling in for a week, maybe two, when your opponents are lower tier teams and luckily you got good news that Juwan Jennings is just mildly banged up. There was good news with Jennings Kittle's out, but, you know, their backup tight end seemed to do all right last week. I mean, he's no George Kittle, but I don't know, you just got to, you know, when teams have to tread water until their schedule, it's hard. The 49ers lucked out and that in the fact that they have some pretty weak ass games coming up. And this might be Mac Jones opportunity to say, hey, look, with a Kyle Shanahan offense, I think so. I got the skill set, man. What you saw in New England, and I don't think there's any threat there to Purdy's job. Yeah, that was just. That was just nonsense. I didn't get a fair shot. So maybe, maybe this is a good thing for Mac Jones. I think so. I think it's a good thing for the team. Let him rest now while he can. It's early. And then tonight I'll be watching Yankees Tigers. But a Charlie Sheen documentary. Yeah, that goes down tonight. That's tonight on Netflix. Winning. If you need a distraction, watch that guy. And surprisingly, he looks great. We'll see you guys manana. Until then, be safe. Have a good night until tomorrow. Arrivederci, baby. See you in the promised land. See you tomorrow. Hi, it's Honey German and I'm back with season two of my podcast. Gracias. Come again.

Avoidance is easier. Ignoring is easier. Denial is easier. Complex problem solving takes effort.
