And we are going to definitely dive deep like we're Jacques Cousteau. Give me another diver. Greg Louganis. Yeah, man. But you know what? I just had an epiphany. Epiphany. The way people are divided. Yeah. On candy corn, by the way, that just means I had a deep thought in the bathroom while you were peeing in a pee phony. Yeah, I know. It happens. Candy corn is very divisive. So no family agrees. We said it. No, nobody agrees. People hate it. People love it. We're so divided. I love it. I'm so surprised. Dan Byer loves it because he likes nothing. Yeah, well, he likes kid food, like chicken nuggets and stuff. Yeah, I was. Sam hates it, hate it. I hate it, hate it. But the fact that you hate it, it just. I'm happy because it proves my point that a group of friends, a family, your coworkers, you're never going to have a unanimous. We all love or all hate candy corn. Well, on National Candy Corn Day, who's the candy corn of sports? It's got to be LeBron James, right? Because for everybody that loves them. Yeah. Someone hates them. Like there's going to be a house divided. Used to be Tom Brady. Yeah, Brady. The candy corn of sports. The candy corn of the NFL also, you could argue is everything revolving around Taylor and Travis. Like a lot of people love it. I think you say Aaron Rodgers. That's what I thought you were going to say. Aaron Rodgers might be. There's people that love him. But, but more, more, more hating than love. I think the more divisive guy, most divisive guy I'd have to say is LeBron. But anyway, because it's National Candy Corn Day, got us thinking back in the day, throwing it back on a Thursday, getting you involved. 87799 on Fox. What was the, the candy that your parents always stole from you? Because remember, we grew up in the 80s, a lot of us even earlier than that. For some of you, the parents always check the candy. I still do that. Do you guys still do that? A little bit. And I'm really just checking for again what I want. But just to make sure it's safe. Yes. Did it really take them to get x rayed or was that a big lie? But the reality is I think trick or treating, yes. But trunk or treat at the school, they, you have to bring prepackaged candy. They divvy it up for the cars. Like, you don't need to be checking that. But back in the day, they used to check for razor blades. You know why stuff like that, why that was is a lot of people like in from my grandma's generation, they would make their own candy, their own confections to give out because it was cheaper to do. I think during some hard times. And there were some bad actors at play. These are days of rotten apples, decades old circus peanuts and pennies wrapped in cellophane. That house gets egged. So what were candy fudge that your parents were stealing from you? And then Rich put up a second question. There was a lady in my block growing up that gave me a little piece of fudge. Sam, you want some fudge? I got some fudge for you. Sam, you just unlocked, unlocked a memory because, you know, I had the same memory. There was definitely an old lady on the block that had a like individually wrapped little like butterscotch. That's so funny, dude. You're absolutely right about that. Old people took pride in that. And what was the. This is the first time we're getting this voice, by the way. I love it. Sam. Yeah. You're the new old guy in town or old lady, whatever that is. Whichever. Yeah. What is the old candy that you actually like? I think the idea you said there's a number one. I think the Idea of going through your kid's candy and saying, like, I'm checking for it. I just take it and I call it the dad tax. And I also feel like there's no way your kid could eat all that candy. My wife will be like, stop picking at the kids candy. I'm like, you think it's okay for a kid to have a barrel of Kit Kats and Sour Patch started that witch switch sort of thing where you would take the. The candy and give them a toy or something instead, or that's what they need, more toys. I don't know. Whatever. I know what you're saying. Prize or, I don't know, clothes. Was it Jimmy Kimmel who did the bitch where the parents told the kids they ate their candy while they were sleeping? Yeah, that was the last funny thing he did. Dude, I forgot about that. Yeah, that is it. So, Rich, you got us on the edge of our seat. What's the old guy candy that you can't live without? I feel like I'm the lone guy. Just my wife's like, take them. No one else wants them. I'm like, are you for real? I got two, but one is a far number one for me. My runner up, I will house Tootsie Rolls like nobody's business. And it seems like no one else loves the little mini Tootsie Rolls, the fruit flavored, the vanilla one and the cherry one. A lot of times they're stale, though. Those are the cheaper bag. Like, I bought a bag of candy and those are the cheaper ones. Like that variety of Tootsie Rolls. Tootsies. Yeah, well, tootsies. It's funny you should say that, Sam, because the number one answer. You just named my favorite cheap guy old guy candy. I feel like no one but me loves dots. I love dots. They get stuck in your teeth. Give me a hug. I was Sam, I love dots. And my wife's like, you like dots? Who likes dots? They're gooey, sticking your teeth and no one likes them. I go, then give me all the dots. I'll take the dots. All right. So is there an old guy candy you vouch for? I'm just going to shout out smarties because they're from my hometown of Union, New Jersey, and not Canadian Smarties. Canadian Smarties, I think, are made by, like, Nestle. They're like, chocolate. Actual Smarties candy. Let me make it very clear. You pretend they were pills, right? Yeah. Let me make it drugs. Let me make it very clear. You want all these old guy candies. That's what they sell at the Dollar Tree. Like, if you go to the candy aisle at the dollar store, Dollar Tree, it's all the old. Like, if you ever wondered where they sell the individually wrapped strawberry candies that look like little strawberries. If you ever wondered where they sell individually wrapped lifesavers that they give away at the strip club bathroom, all this. The mints. They're the mints that look like lifesavers. Right. It's all at the Dollar Tree. We went in the Dollar Tree last week. Everything in there is two dollars and fifty cents. Wait, where do grandma's get those strawberry candies? Same thing. Dollar Tree. I just said that. Yeah. All right, so we go to the phones at 87799 on Fox. 87799 on Fox. To break it down as far as, what was your dad stealing back in the day? And what do you actually like? Did you tell us co. Which. Which candies your dad stole? You know, I totally remember your parents stealing your candy as they checked through it. And I'm thinking, like, back. And I'm thinking it's like Butterfinger. And there's another one that my dad would always. That's a good one. My stepdad would steal that and he'd put them in the freezer. Yeah. Cause. And I didn't mind, I don't think, because I didn't want them. But now. Now as an adult, I like them. But my dad would always take those. And it was something else on the edge of my. On the tip of my tongue. I just remember my dad would grab Milk Duds and like, sugar baby sugar daddies. Any type of, like, caramelly chocolate fun. Right? Right. So we're going to the phones, reminiscing a little bit. We do this every Thursday. It's Halloween eve. Mischief night, whatever. 87799 on Fox. Who do we got? Let's go to. And by the way, you know how Dan Patrick makes people give their height and weight and all that? Yeah. Before you give your answer, you have to let us know if you're yay or nay on candy corn. Just to sort of. Just to sort of prove the point that the world's divided. To set the table, I'm a candy corn guy. Handy in Mississippi. What's up, Andy? Hey, guys, I got a couple things real quick. Yeah. First of all, when you talk about egging and rolling people's yards, we forked plastic, forked a yard that's a lot harder to clean up. Just forks all inside the grass. We did that once. We did that it's not. That's a good one. Box of forks. Plastic forks. And you stick them in the yard. No. You know what we would do, too? We would take garden gnomes from all over the town and, like, leave them on someone else's house. And then as far as the candy corn, my dad used to mix Spanish peanuts with the candy corn. Get a sweet and salty. So I ask you, Andy, before you hang up here, are you a candy corn guy? I am, but I got one more thing for you if. Excuse me. You better not eat them candy corn. They're gonna get you pregnant. Is this Tracy Morgan? What is going on? I don't know. Why did he just turn into Mr. Hyde there? I don't know. He just, like, had, like, I think, multiple personalities. I think. I think when the guy coughed, a different. Something entered his body. He was, like, possessed by the devil or something. Or he's hanging with Tracy. Whatever. He's like. One second. Hold on, guys. All right. Baker in Illinois. What's up, Baker? Hey, what up, Baker? First off, I've never stolen candy from my children that they know about. And the candy corn is gross by itself. But first, the last guy kind of stole my thunder. Candy corn with M and M peanuts mixed in. That's a new twist. M and M peanuts and candy crowd. I will try that. You know, Eminem, Peanuts are the number two selling candy in the United States. The number one selling candy. We mentioned this a couple weeks ago, but Reese's Peanut Butter Cups are still the number one selling Halloween candy every year. Want to hear an embarrassing stat? Doesn't have to do with candy. But for anyone that talks about how people are tough and rough on money and the times are tough. Americans spend $700 million a year on dog customs. I'm not surprised. Dude. Yeah, I'm not surprised. Who else do we got? Tripp. What's up, Tripp? Trip McNeely. What up, Trip? Hey, gentlemen, a quick agony story. I was with my buddy one night. He's like, you drive. I never get to throw the eggs. He rocks and fires an egg. He didn't roll the window down. So the first egg car. I remember going to get eggs as a kid. And it was like, the only time I did because I was trying to be a good kid with, like, one of the neighborhood little lamp wicks was like, richie, go get eggs. Come on. What, are you scared? I surprised that the convenience stores were so willing to give up eggs to, like, young kids. Interestingly enough, the guy, the 7 11's like, I'm not selling you two dozen eggs, kid. I remember you telling him. I go, why? He goes, what do you need these eggs for? And I said I was quick on my feet. I go, my mom's making omelets. And he let me buy them because of my quick thinking of it. I'm making cookies from scratch. Making. It's omelet night. Oh, you know, I thought of a mom candy. My mom would dip into my mix. My mom would dip in and steal like sweet tarts, even though I love them too, but she'd always steal the sweet tarts and Mary Jane's. Oh, I love Mary Jane. Can I tell you, I will say that's an old person candy. I'm not saying they're not good, but you're not getting the variety you got when we were kids. Let me explain. When we were kids, I don't know about you. I work the freaking neighborhood. I was out and about. I'm going to come back with pillowcases like you. You'd. You'd break out a big bag or like Kavino said, a pillowcase. You'd go into other neighborhoods. You'd work your ass off. You'd be like, wait, that big house in the rich neighborhood gives out full size Hershey bars. Kings. I go for king size. You would work your ass to get a barrel of loot and candy and you'd sort it out and you write. Your parents would check it, but you had a variety candy you never heard of even mixed in. Like Sam said, like old, old lady, old lady McGee gave you fudge, you'd get a whatchamacallit bar. I feel like everyone gives out the same variety pack of KitKat, Hershey, Snickers, Milky Way. Dusty, like coffins full of hard candy. Remember those? But I will say chunky dusty things. It's sort of boring. And I'm not trying to sound like the old gu. But my kids candy basket was like the same five candy. Just a lot of it happened to Alexander the Great. Snickers, Milky Way, KitKat. Yeah, Twix, sour patch, Swedish fish. You got more variety for sure. Like six things that are just, you know, you might get. Someone may give you like an airhead or a slappy taffy that, you know, it's the same variety packs that everyone's buying at the supermarket. Did you mention our other theory? While we talk about candy real quick. It's National Candy Corn Day, by the way. So we're going over the candies your parents stole from you and your favorite old Guy candy and everything else. Could I guess that I was Sam, Iowa? Sam's gonna disagree with you. Oh, yeah. I always say I am. As the contrarian of Halloween candy, our theory depends, and it's a proven theory because we've worked in many different offices. When Cindy from accounting puts her little bowl of candy out, or even your little candy display at home, it's always the yellow wrapped candies that are leftover. It's always yellow starburst, yellow Laffy Taffy. It's always a yellow wrapper that's leftover. It's the lem or banana that's left over. If we did an experiment here at fsr. If we put. If you brought in your leftover Halloween, it's the least favorite. What's. What's a close second? Grape. No, orange. Isn't it? Yeah, probably like orange starburst. I feel like there'll be like a. A grape blow pop. No one likes the grape blow pop. I like grape Laffy Taffy. Like, people would take that. People want the regular blow pop or the. Or the green apple, but the grape apple. I love grape anything. So when he brought up Alexander the Grape, that was my go to at the movie theater. I was a big fan of. They were called cherry clans back in the day. Cherry heads. Now lemon heads. Alexander the Great Johnny Apple treats. I used to love all those. I think they're called Terrapan or Ferrero Pan or something. I used to love those hard candies. Hey, DB how about those Grape Mike and Ike's? Oh, yes, the best. And you don't see them everywhere. Kind of like the hundred grand that we've talked about before. Mike and Ike and another old 100 grand. Oh, your dad would still get plenty. Yeah, I like the black licorice. My mom anything licorice, she stole it up. I love the black licorice. And you. You would be like, yeah, take these. I don't want them anyway. Can I tell you, I mean, maybe my kid's school just went the easy way out and got so much of the same candy, but you guys just mentioned candies that did not make my kids trunk or treat basket. Mike and Ike, Good and plenty blow pops. I'm telling you, so many people just go to the local supermarket or Target, and like Sam said, there's the cheap variety pack and the expensive variety pack. So your kids are dealing with the. A mix of the same eight. I thought of another one that we got that you won't get today. Remember when we were little, they would sell like, little Milk cartons full of gum. Orange flavored gum, grape gum. It looked like a tiny little milk carton and it was like little peppermint. We had more variety, for sure. And by the way, retraction, The Lemonhead Candy Company, that's Ferrara Candy Shop. Ferrara Candy. And they had a whole line of great hard candies when we were kids. They still exist. But you're right, you don't see them. You see those same variety, boring target variety packs that you get. Everyone has the same one. Switch it up. That's a great reminder. Switch it up, because your kids in your neighborhood will appreciate it. Throw some zots in there. You know what you do in August or September? You go down the candy aisle of like a CVS or Walgreens, and you pick out different bags, like the same stuff, and mix it all together. You'll have a nice variety for the children. Zots, bro. We don't want those Necco wafers. We want some zots. What were the. What were the things that you would bite off the paper? Oh, like candy dots. Is that what they're called? Yeah. And sometimes even in your Easter, your Halloween basket, you're like sugar buttons. Yeah, Sugar button. Remember the also waxy bottles? The wax bottles with, like, liquid in them? Yeah. These are things that no one's handing out. How about the fun Dip? Oh, dude. What Fun Dip? I think I grew up on fun dip. I was snorting fun Dip. You know what? Here's the reminder. The reminder on Fox Sports Radio. Get something different, honestly, because you will see, when your kids are trick or treating. Trick or treating. They don't have as much fun stuff to steal. Like, I want to steal some Pixie sticks, but you know, you don't have them. You're going to see just a hundred tiny little Snickers bars or Milk Duds. Not even Milk Duds that would make. Crackle makes an appearance. And Mr. Goodbar comes back. Crackle stinks. I know. But you know what? Mr. Goodbar in the yellow wrapper, right? That's the cheaper variety pack. It'll be leftover. All right, so we'll wrap it up with your phone calls, having fun, talking Halloween candy. And another reminder. This is a lot of people say it's Thanksgiving. This is the beginning of the slippery slope, guys. The slippery slope of the holiday. Wait, because it starts with this Halloween candy. It's National Candy Corn Day. We're going to the calls. Who we got? Mark. Mark in Carson City. What's up? Hey, I got one for you. Yeah, I. I had A neighbor that always gave out the zots. Oh, my God, I just said that. Yeah, I love. Those are the ones that fizz in your mouth. I never had one. So, like, five years ago, Mark, five years ago, because I had never tried one, Cavino actually got old school candy zots. And I tried it on the air, and I was like, yo, this is so cold. I like fizzy. And you're like, Alka Seltzer. I love that. Yeah, I used to. That's what I did. I would take like 10 of them and. And before my kids would see me and chew on them and tell him I got bit by the dog. You know, those might be my favorite. Like, older candies. Because they're old. They. They go way back and. Yeah, I love those. They're hard to find. You can find them at, like, candy shops. Yeah, we lack some good foaming at the mouth pranks these days. Oh, Pop Rocks. When was the last time you saw Pop Rocks? When your high school girlfriend had Jeff in Detroit. What's up, Jeff? Hey, what's up, guys? What's funny is I. My dad used to steal my. The hundred grand bars for me. Oh. And that's a crime. And I. It's a crime. And now I do. Now that's what I steal. Dude, I don't even know, like. You nailed it. You nailed it. Father, like son. That's probably why I fight for them and like them so much now, because my dad would always steal those. Those are my absolute. If anyone gives a diddly squat, those are my favorite. So I'm with you. Those are the ones. If those are the ones I'm stealing, it's like a deficiency. Because you were deprived. I was deprived. So now I steal them from my kid. That's. That's my answer, man. I've always had the deep thought, though, guys, great call. While we all do buy these candies and chocolate and sour patch and all that for our kids around holidays and Halloween, Easter baskets, Christmas, all this stuff. I do wonder, like, who's buying a candy bar on a regular basis other than, like, a road trip where you might stop in a wawa or a 711 or a Buc EE's or something. Better question, who's buying, like, a Clark? But that's what I'm saying. Like, when you see, like when you go to the counter and you're like, there's a baby Ruth and someone randomly, a weekly basis, grabbing a baby roof. Yeah, her hooked somehow. Maller has talked about this on one of his podcasts where There was some study. And most of the purchases are right there at the cash register. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know what world you live in, Rich Davis, but it is a common practice in my household. Oh, yeah. You know what? They're right. They're right in front of you. Like, you grab them, they have the sale sign. I guess that's when I buy. I guess that's when I buy like gum or. I'm. I'm. I'm a sour patch guy. Maybe I'm just more of a sour. Yeah, a lot of the grocery stores. You're sour shoes guy. A lot of the grocery stores, right under the candy bar, it'll say buy one, get one free in that. Then you have to buy one right at Ralph's, which is the big supermarket chain out here. What is it? What's the parent company? Kroger. So, yeah, the Kroger's out here. Owned by Chad Kroger, little known for Nickelback. True story. His rock fortune went to supermarkets. They'll have the candy, and it'll say, five for five dollars. So you think you have to buy five. So you do. And then in the Small Prince, it's like. Or a dollar each. I have another. You just buy five of them. I have another childhood memory I bet you forgot about. Do you remember some neighbors, aside from the old ladies, that would give you their homemade fudge? Which I think is hilarious because it's true. Some families would give you, like, McDonald's coupons from their McDonald's coupon. Oh, and it would have, like, cookies or an ice cream cone or like a sundae, like. Oh, yeah, you're right, man. I think the greatest point we made out of this conversation is that kids don't have the same variety that we had growing up. That's true. We had all sorts of variety, man. Oh, that is the biggest bummer, because you're right. Like, I'm thinking how fudge, that stupid variety pack has ruined Halloween. I totally forgot about that. I remember one year getting a Dairy Queen gift certificate. Coupons, man. They'd be like, yeah, someone would buy a packet of them and they get a kid. You know, that was. I remember McDonald's one specifically back on the Iowa. Sam, tip of, like, old lady, they gave you a fudge. You boys want some fudge? I got homemade butterscotch for you. You don't have to X ray it. You can trust me. Thanks, old lady. My pleasure. Come back next year if I'm alive. We Love your shoe. 300. Thank you. Trick or treat. I might be dreaming this, but I swear there was a woman in my neighborhood, an old lady that gave out candy apples. Dude, of course, like a big ass candy apple with like wrapping around. People gave out fruit and, and pennies wrapped in cellophane. And again, I totally remember you could go buy penny candies. So flute whistles and moon pies. We'll wrap it up. We'll wrap it up with your phone calls. Hey, by the way, I'm plagiarizing a little bit of the Simpsons and Family Guy. Yeah, I love it. All right, so what, Danny G. You're producing. We'll take the rest of the phone calls next. Yeah, we'll go crossfire next. NFL, right? NFL, yo. Week nine is going to be so telling. I have five games circled that I think are going to determine the future of the National Football League. We'll do that all next right here. CNR on fsr. Hang tight.

Dan, I think someone's calling you in the lobby. You know what? Screw it. Back to being a Kavino guy. Yeah, I'm back, baby. Better than ever. I'm back. Yeah, baby. Oh, I love it, man. Kovino, you deserve the day off tomorrow. That's right. You know what? In fact, I'll take that. Thank you, Danny G. Thank you, Dan Beyer. And we'll wrap it up with your phone calls again. National Candy Corn Day. Know that I'll play more corn tonight on SXM channel 41 Turbo. And Corn is playing A Sick New World, April 25th in Vegas with System of a Down. So I'm a big Corn fan. I'm also a big candy corn fan. But we wrap up Crossfire, the candy your parents stole from you, which maybe now you steal from your kids. We'll wrap it up with your phone calls. Let's go. Let's go to Andrew in San Diego. Hi, Andrew. What's up, guys? I'm with my son right now. He says yes on the candy corn. I say, no way. See, family's divided. Yeah, exactly. He. His favorite. He said with sweetest fish. The. The two that I'm stealing out of his bag are gonna be Almond Joy and Snickers. There you go. Hey, listen, I. I said to I with Sam during the break, it really is boring. Like, if you haven't seen, like, a kid's trunk or treat or some type of trick or treating scene in the wall because you don't have little ones. It really is all the boring candies. And the biggest takeaway from this whole conversation was we used to be surprised. If you worked in neighborhood, you would get a variety of candy things you hadn't seen in years. There was a surprise when you said trick or treat. Now it's like every single parent gets the same and every single person gets that same variety pack at the supermarket, you have the same five candy. It's. You got a lot of dum dums back in the Day. Right. And I wouldn't mind once in a while. I know, but you get the. The barbershop, the cream soda flavored Gobstoppers, Jolly Ranchers. Yeah, yeah, for real. It's just changed. It's definitely changed. So I'm glad that caller brought up Swedish fish. The little mini packs of those are so good. But, you know, what about the Haribo Coke bottles? But they're Haribo for you. What did I say? Harbor? No, you're right. You're right, Harbaugh. All right. Jonathan in Colorado. What's up, Jonathan? Not much. How you guys doing? We're good, man. What are your thoughts on the Halloween candy stuff? One thing without fail, every year I'd always get would be a popcorn ball. Oh, my God. There was an old person that would give their homemade popcorn balls. There might be a needle in there. That's another one. Some as a kid you would gladly give away to your parents, like the big orange circus peanut or like anything with coconut. Like. Yeah, you could have my York pepper, Peppermint Patty or Mounds. When you were a kid. When you were a kid. Right. But now as an adult, it's different. Do you like Junior Mints? If you don't like. If you. I love Junior when I was a kid. Now I do. Yeah, Now York peppermint patties are too much. You know, someone dropped a Junior Mint inside spot when he had his open heart surgery. I think his name was Cosmo Kramer. Yeah, that's a good one. Chris in Virginia, what's up? Hey, what's up, guys? What's up, buddy? Hey, I got two for you. One is like, the parents would always steal. And I was okay with his Bitto, honey. Yes. Apparent when they'd steal. That for sure. Yep. But, you know, they could have them. They're terrible. You know what? What you look out for, and it's so rare nowadays. Again, the ones you don't always see like rolos. You're like, give me those rolos. What else you got, Chris? Hey, the other one is, it was so taboo back in the day to get the candy cigarettes that you blow the smoke out of. Oh, hell, yeah. Those are the best. The. The gum powder, the dust. Love it. Hey, FSR's very own Arnie Spanier texted it in the show. Love, Arnie, Old man Candy. Chuckles is his number one dude and O. Henry bar number two. Let me tell Arnie. The Black Chuckle, which was the licorice flavored one, was always the last one because it was the cherry, the orange, the green. I Love Chuckles. I left that one for dad. And Arnie's right. Chuckles. When was the last time you saw Chuckles? Because everyone gives that same stupid variety pack. So the last message I'll say. And before we move on to the NFL, buy something different for the trick or treaters. Don't get the Reese's Kit Kat Snickers variety pack. Everyone gives that out. Go honestly, go buy Jolly Ranchers. Go buy Laffy Taffy. Go buy some freaking Chuckles. Buy something different. Some razzles. Some Razzle dazzles. There you go. All right. So we promise. And by the way, if you want to chime in at Covino and Rich, at Fox Sports Radio, we call that old school in 50 hits. We throw it back and reminisce. Hope you guys have a happy and safe Halloween and a safe mischief night tonight, Halloween Eve. So, Rich, you said you're going to bust out your crystal ball. Well, I love me some schedule watching, but I also love looking at my crystal ball. And there's some games this week that I think are going to be so telling as far as where these teams are going to head. As I look in my crystal ball, there's a. I'm going to start with one game that I think is so, so obviously going to point two teams in different directions depending on what happens. The Broncos are at the Texans. Broncos. Texans. This is a game where, like, I'm mildly shocked that Houston's favorite. I know the game's in Houston, sir. Tan's out. Mims is banged up. They got some injuries for Denver, but to me it's like a, it makes sense though. They stepped up last week against your team and you got an injured Broncos. Their, their defense is elite. You could argue that they're a top tier defense in Houston, but I. Home, I guess home plays a layer in this, too. But the fact that they're favorites at 3 and 4. But they're a good 3 and 4. They're 3 and 4. That could very well be 5 and 2. Had two very close games gone different. Like right now, when you look at the Texans schedule, they're three and four. But let's take it back. They lost to the Rams 149 in a close game. They lost in 2019 to the Bucks. They lost 1710 to the Jags. Like a lot of their losses, like, touched by a touchdown or less. So maybe just sleeping on Houston for a little bit. So maybe they're a 3 and 14. That turns it around. You're like, yeah, you know what? They weren't that they Were pretty good all along. And did I hear Dan Byer say that Nico Collins is sort of back in the mix? Yeah. Cleared concussion protocol and should be. Should be back on Sunday. I think that's an interesting game because to the Broncos do lose at Houston, I think you're going to be like, wow, Houston could make a mid to late season run because that division's pretty stacked with Jacksonville playing well and Indianapolis playing out of their mind. You know, Houston was sort of like sort of the forgotten team. Well, since you have your crystal ball out, do you think with this game we figure out who's for real out of both of those teams? Because that's what we're getting at. Right? I think for real. Week nine, I think if the Texans lose big at home versus the Broncos, I think we could say that just based on the bad luck of a couple of those close losses, it's an uphill battle to make the postseason because the teams in the division have played better than we thought. And the fact that you have a one loss Colts team, like it's, it'll be an uphill battle. So this is a big one for Houston. Now another game. Speaking of the Colts, they're going to Seattle. I'm sorry, they're going to Pittsburgh to play the Steelers. And Steelers are 4 and 3. And we mapped out the whole schedule how The Ravens are 2 and 5, but they have a really soft month coming up. This is one of those games where if the Steelers lose and you see the Ravens win tonight, oh, there's going to be such a, such a, like a nervous stomach going on Pittsburgh that they could see in the rear view. The team that's getting healthier and a team that's trying to get it together with Baltimore. I think the Colts go into Pittsburgh and win and you're going to see a 4 and 4 Steelers team. Do you start putting respect on the Colts name after a while or what if you win in Pittsburgh? If anything, we have played Denver and we've downplayed Indianapolis. So maybe that narrative switches after this week. Well, we're going to go over a bunch of these games, but let's go to DB for an update. Dan Beyer. Hey, db, what's up, man? So Brock Purdy limited in practice is the word for the 49ers. Remember, they got the Giants coming up on Sunday. Artificial turf, one of the services that, that former players are not fans of. So that's been brought up on social media as well. But it does look like Mac Jones will get another start in Week nine for San Francisco. When a guy is having a season long lingering turf toe, do you want to play on the stadium that's known for the worst turf? Yeah. No, it's like, come on. No, it's like symbolic of, you know. Yeah. By the way, what's happening with Ricky Pearsall? Like he's still out week to week and it just seems like every week is like not there. I don't know. Yeah, not there. So that's. Someone did make a bit harsh judgment. Like, man, this guy's never healthy. He was shot last year. Like, I don't think that counts on his injury report. Give him a pass. Other injury news in the NFL. Bears running back Deandre Swift in practice today. They've got the Bengals coming up where Joe Flacco was limited today. The quarterback's got that shoulder issue. Falcons quarterback Michael Penix Jr. And wide receiver Drake London both limited for Atlanta. They've got the Patriots on Sunday. Patriots running back Ramandre Stevenson didn't practice for the second straight day because of a toe issue. Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray on track to starting against the Cowboys on Monday night. That was according to head coach Jonathan Gannon. Murray officially limited in practice today. It is week nine. Lamar Jackson returns for the Ravens tonight. They are in South Florida to face the dolphins 8:15 Eastern Time. Nebraska gave head football coach Matt rule a two year extension. Now runs through the 2032 season. Does his contract and his buyout is worth $15 million if he were to leave after this year. According to espn. Texas quarterback Arch Manning practice today but he remains in concussion protocol. 20th ranked Longhorns face number nine Vanderbilt. Coming up, Washington Nationals hired 33 year old Blake Butera as their new manager. The youngest skipper in the big leagues in more than 50 years. While the NBA's board of governors unanimously approved the $10 billion sale of the Lakers from the Buss family to Mark Walter. Guys, back to you. Thank you, db and if I find some Alexander the Grapes, I'm gonna bring you some. Please do. I'm gonna steal them. I'll steal them from my kid to give them to you. Oh, thank you very much. No problem. That's why I'm a Kavino guy. Yeah, I got you, bro. Don't worry about it. All right, tv. Have a good night. Enjoy your Thursday night. Monty will be here in a matter of minutes.

You could chime in live Covino and Rich FSR on YouTube, send it to a friend and join us on over promised in 10 minutes. Nine minutes. Let me hit you up with another telling game Week nine of the NFL. We're just going over the games that I feel like based on the result will be a very big reflection of where the team is going. Though banged up and though it looks like Mac Jones is getting another start, I have to be real and keep it real with my 49ers. They're 5 and 3 in a softer they're barely favoriting the Giants right in a softer NFC where I grew Dan Buyer where we saw talked about how the Niners, even if they got into the play at 10 and 7, there's, there's a lack of talent in depth in the nfc. There's teams at the top like the Lions and the Eagles and you know, the packers. But you know teams like the Niners could slip in. But right now they're five and three. You got to go to the east coast. You got to take care of the Giants, come out of the game six and three because you have the Rams next week and then you have the Cardinals and Panthers which are two very winnable games. So you sneak by. If you're The Niners, you're 5 and 3, 6 and 3. They should do that. I'll give the Rams that. Game 6 and 4, Cardinals 7 and 4, Panthers 8 and 4. I think the Niners need to be 8 and 4 after 12 games and I think that all starts with you have to go three and one on the next four to I think keep pace and the Giants should be a W. The Niners can't go to the east coast and lose to the Giants without Scatter Boo without Malik Neighbors with disarray and a rookie quarterback Robert Salas should let that team shouldn't really move the ball if Robert Salah's defensive schemes are up to up to par. Disarray. Never heard of him. So week nine Begins tonight. We're excited about it. It's where the Ray. Nice. It's where the Ravens start their mission. Yeah, Ravens, Dolphins, ain't happening. Who else is for real? Rich. I told you, you left me on a cliffhanger. Chiefs, Buffalo. To me, it's a very telling game. Chiefs got to win this one because it seems like every week the Chiefs get better and better and better. We're like, ah, just. But it seems like with good coaching they've made adjustments and they're playing big. But this one's at Buffalo. Do you think this is a telling game? I think you're looking at, you know, Dan Buyer. I'll give more props. Maybe he'll be a Rich Davis guy again. Never. You know how I said the NFC seems pretty set? You got the Eagles, you got the Lions and Packers, you got the Bucks and you probably got Rams, maybe even Niners and Seahawks, right this. Unless some other lower team like the Cowboys or someone just somehow steps on the gas or the Vikings or someone really turns it around. The NFC seems like you sort of have a clue of where we're headed. The afc. I'm intrigued to see. If Buffalo drops this game. Are we just going to give in to the idea that the Patriots are the owners of the AFC east again and the Bills are going to be like a wildcat. That's why I'm feeling it's a telling game the Bills went for. This is where the Bills could like sort of redeem themselves. We were all full of it. Remember the beginning of the year. We're like, guys, it's very clear. It's like a three headed monster. Are Chiefs, Bills and Ravens. Ravens need a lot of help. Bills are slipping and the Chiefs started weak and now are like, you know, up there. What's interesting though is two preseasons ago, people were down on the Bills, remember? Yeah. Then they shot out of a cannon. People are, oh, we were wrong about that. And it's kind of the opposite. Are they going to get good? We're waiting for them to turn it around. I told my girlfriend to draft Josh Allen in her fantasy league. She's like, he stinks. I'm like, I don't know. He's supposed to be good. They're supposed to be good. I don't know why. This is their chance to turn it around against the Chiefs. That's a big statement. Game. Game. I don't think it's going to happen. I draft Sydney Sweeney in my fantasy league. She's in my no. And Madison and Madison be I'll fight you for her. Yeah. So. All right. My fantasies are different than yours. In fact, you know what? We're going to talk. You can keep Josh Allen. We'll talk Sydney Sweeney on Over Promised. How about that? All right. Perfect. The Riva Di baby. See you in the over promised land. Come on, let's go.
